A Happy Wife in a Rural Family

She finished drinking and put the cup back. After her mind was clear, she carefully recalled what had happened last night.

Her eyes darkened. Xiao Yunjing was indeed that b*stard. She looked at the door gloomily and thought, ‘just you wait and see, b*stard.’

She had the golden spear never falls potion and the golden spear never rises potion in her space.

Gu Qingli got up and found a new set of sky-blue cotton clothes and green cotton underclothes in the cabinet.

Gu Qingli curled her lips, thinking that this bastard was well prepared.

She quickly put it on.

After she was dressed, she casually tied her hair into a bun, inserted a wooden pin, and put on her cotton shoes before going out.

Wasn’t she supposed to serve tea to her in-laws this morning?

Where the hell did this Man dog go?

“You’re up?” Xiao Yunjing came out of nowhere and appeared behind her.

Gu Qingli took a few steps forward reflexively, turned around, and glared at him before patting her chest. “Don’t you know how scary it is?”

“Ah? I was in this house when I heard you come out. I didn’t think so much. It won’t happen again. Let’s go and eat. Everyone is waiting.” As he spoke, Xiao Yunjing came to hold her hand.

Gu Qingli dodged his hand and walked toward the central room.

Xiao Yunjing didn’t care about the space. He was very grateful that she didn’t castrate him this morning.

There were two tables in the central room, separated by men and women. As expected, everyone was waiting for her.

Gu Qingli’s face was burning. She greeted everyone and sat down for breakfast.

Most of the food for breakfast was leftover from yesterday, so Gu Qingli didn’t eat anything after a few bites.

Mrs. Jiang saw that her appetite was so small and frowned slightly. She said in a somewhat somber tone, “Third brother’s wife, are these dishes not to your taste, or do you have a small appetite?”

Gu Qingli smiled. “No, mother. I had some wine last night. I don’t have an appetite now.”

“Oh.” Mrs. Jiang responded indifferently and didn’t say anything. She caught a glimpse of third brother looking in their direction.

After breakfast, Xiao Yunjing and Gu Qingli served tea to the old couple, as well as two older brothers and two older sisters-in-law. After drinking tea, she was officially recognized as the Xiao family’s daughter-in-law.

Gu Qingli felt that Mrs . Jiang didn’t like her, but the others were kind to her, unlike the Gu family.

This made her feel more comfortable.

If the Xiao family were to be like the Gu family, she would divorce them no matter what.

A divorced woman was qualified to marry a woman.

She could do whatever she wanted, and without so much backup support, she really couldn’t get along with so many people.

In modern times, she had no one by her side other than her best friends. She did not see her parents all year round and was almost considered a loner.

Gu Qingli’s heart ached at the thought of her best friend.

The people who hurt people were often the closest people to them. They didn’t want to be friends anymore.

After the tea, old man Xiao immediately arranged for boss Xiao and second brother Xiao to help repair the house.

Boss Xiao and second boss Xiao left without another word.

Gu Qingli didn’t know that they had all gone to repair the house yesterday. She couldn’t help but look at this severe old man Xiao.

Old man Xiao was in his forties, and the butcher’s knife of time had long been engraved on his face. His hair was mixed with white hair, and his somewhat stiff face had a dignified look, making him not to be underestimated.

Thinking of the martial arts manuals in the box, old man Xiao must be someone who knew two moves.

She looked at Mrs. Jiang, who had no expression on her face. Mrs. Jiang looked about the same age as old man Xiao. She also did not smile and had good facial features. At this time, she was pursing her lips and thinking about something.

There was also Mrs . Yang and Mrs . Wang, who was washing up. These two women were no different from the ordinary women in the village.

They looked like the kind that was easy to get along with, but she didn’t know if they were easy to get along with.

Five boys were digging up the mountain. One was carrying a basket taller than him, and the other was carrying a hoe.

As for the other three, the oldest one was about twelve years old. He was tall, carrying a basket on his back and a hoe. He was instructing the other two to hurry up.

Gu Qingli looked at the gloomy sky, thinking it would snow in a few days.

Thinking of old man Xiao’s behavior and how he treated the two of them well, she walked to Mrs. Jiang and said, “Mother, why don’t I take the eldest sister-in-law and second sister-in-law to the mountain to dig for herbs? We can still dig for a few days.”

Mrs. Jiang looked up at Gu Qingli. She knew that this daughter-in-law had taken the four daughters-in-law of the village head to the mountain to dig.

Honestly, she was just about to tell her new wife about this.

Their family wasn’t wealthy, and they could only rely on their three sons to hunt for some income.

The old man’s body, sigh! She knew whether it looked good or not.

However, life here was difficult, and there was no way to cure it.

If she could dig up some herbs and sell them, she would at least have some income. She could save money to send her grandchildren to school or feed the family.

When the eldest and second came back last night, they gave her the money for the herbs the three boys dug. It was more than two hundred yuan.

This was even more cost-effective than her sons going up the mountain to hunt. Although they could pursue a lot of prey once, they would exchange their lives for it.

She didn’t expect the third aunt to say it herself. She seemed to miss her family, and her dislike for this daughter-in-law was reduced by two points. She nodded and smiled, “Sure, you guys can go up the mountain. Your father and I are at home.”

When Xiao Yunjing came out and heard that Gu Qingli had gone to prepare the things for digging, he was overjoyed. He thought that Gu Qingli wouldn’t treat this place as her home.

When Mrs . Yang and Mrs . Wang heard this, they immediately put down their work and packed up their things. Then, the nine people splendidly went up the mountain.

There was a path up the mountain behind the Xiao family house, and the nine went straight up.

On the other side, Mrs. Qiao’s sisters-in-law had carried the herbs to town early in the morning. They found Doctor Shen of Renhe Hall, sold the herbs, and took a look at Gu Dalin before rushing back.

They were solid and reluctant to rest. Each weighed about 50 catties, and each of them sold for about 300 yuan. In addition to being happy, they were also grateful to Gu Qingli. They didn’t expect that the grass used to feed cattle and pigs in the village could be sold for so much money.

The fourth aunt happily rushed back and brought the children up the mountain and the rest of the villagers, who had nothing to do.

All of a sudden, more than twenty people were going up the mountain to dig for herbs.

The big men helping Gu Qingli with the house also worked harder. They finished the work that night and joined the job the next day.

The next day, half of the village went up the mountain.

On the third day, even old man Gu and Madam Hua had to rush Mrs. Yun and Gu Qingmei up the mountain to dig for herbs. When they discovered the value of the herbs, they almost vomited to death.

If Gu Qingli weren’t married yet, she would make her hand over the silver.
