Isn't this Zhao Dashu's daughter?

He died at such a young age.

Little Rain Girl, stop looking.

The child is dead.

Daughter, you're leaving.

How will Mother live?

brat

Why are you so stubborn?

cough cough cough

It came back to life

Light rain

Look at your mother

You're really back.

Ah, Zombie King

Daughter, how are you?

daughter

Mother, I don't want to be sold to Master Wang.

I don't want to be the old man's concubine.

She's only 18 years old.

Zhao family's 25 mu of land

They also supported Zhao Dawen's education.

How could you sell your own granddaughter?

Our village hasn't had a case of selling people for many years.

Isn't this ruining the whole village's reputation?

Don't worry, my daughter.

Even if your grandpa kicks me out of the house

I won't let you serve that old geezer either.

There's still hope for the cheap dad.

Save your life first

We'll settle the rest of the accounts later.

Is it cold, Mom? Walk faster.

daughter

I'm not cold

elder sister

ah

Eldest sister is not dead

In this life, I have a father, a mother, and a younger sister.

Who dares to sell us again?

I'll make them pay the price.

father

I will be taking the imperial examination in a few months.

He just doesn't want to say it directly.

But his jumping into the river became the talk of the whole village.

Isn't this deliberately damaging the Zhao family's reputation?

Hmph, it must have been his mother who instigated him to say that.

Drowning is actually cleaner

So as not to delay the future of your great work

I just came back to life.

This family is just hoping I die.

The real battle is just beginning.

Qi Si

Mother just said that it's cleaner for someone to drown.

Did I say something wrong?

A worthless person made a laughing stock in the whole village.

Xiao Yu almost died.

You still wish him dead

Third Aunt is an elder.

Please pay attention to the rules.

The most important thing now is to prevent this from happening.

It affected the Zhao family's reputation and my imperial examination.

ah

Please call a doctor quickly.

If anything happens to my great article

I'll fight you to the death!

Since the doctor is coming

Let's see who dares to stop my daughter first.

I'll fight anyone to the death today.

Rain Girl almost drowned and they wouldn't call a doctor.

The scholar got so anxious over a nosebleed.

It turns out that the idea of ​​selling people came from Zhao Dawen.

yes

My cousin Mai Meiji's granddaughter built a farmhouse.

It almost resulted in a death.

You need to give an explanation for this.

It was all a misunderstanding at home.

Hasn't Xiaoyu already woken up?

He was lucky to be awake.

It's not that you did the right thing.

Stop arguing.

This is my family matter.

You have no right to interfere

Xiaoyu, where do you feel unwell?

Mother went to beg your grandmother

Please call the doctor.

Mother, you should change your clothes too.

Pear Blossom Come Over

Does it hurt, sister?

Once the pain subsides, your older sister will protect you.

The original owner lived in the worst house in the Zhao family.

Lonely and helpless

Compromise at every turn

But I feel

If my daughter has ability

He can still be as good as five sons.

I wonder if the storage space from my past life still exists.

20 square meters

My space is still there.

The good stuff I painstakingly collected in the apocalypse

My gold brick

My pigeon egg

My imperial green jadeite is all gone.

What's wrong? Does your chest hurt?

fine

I just suddenly realized that our family is really poor.

Did you choke on the river water?

Mother went to beg your grandmother to call a doctor.

I'm just thirsty

Mom, please make me a bowl of ginger water.

I'm afraid of catching a cold.

One

I've already sent someone to fetch a doctor.

What else is making Xiaoyu sad?

father

Will Grandpa sell me again?

After you and your mother went to the fields

Will my uncle send me and Pear Blossom away together?

No one will dare to mess with you again.

I'll fight him to the death.

As soon as he starts to fear losing his wife and daughter

You will understand

This family can't protect us at all.

Old Sun

Please take a look at Xiaoyu first.

She fell into the river.

What's a little girl like you looking at?

Let's look at my big article first.

His nose bled so much

Excessive rape

I caught a cold again.

I might have a fever tonight.

My body is also weak.

Two doses of medicine need to be prescribed.

Take a few more days to recover

Prescribing medicine doesn't cost money!

He was in high spirits.

Where does it look like a disease?

The medicine for my mother must be prescribed today.

We have to open it, whether we want to or not.

If you don't give money

The wages I earn doing odd jobs for others during the off-season

I won't pay a single copper coin from now on.

You dare to keep secrets

You unfilial brat!

Cough cough cough shut up

Is a single dose of medicine worth making a fuss about?

The doctor prescribed him

The old lady was openly malicious.

This old man is the real shrewd one.

He doesn't care about me.

I'm just afraid of what the doctor might say.

Even worse reputation

Get the medicine according to the prescription.

Twice a day

Thank you, doctor.

I'll go get the medicine right away.

Hurry up and boil it

What about the other patient?

Take me to see

minor external injury

Apply a hot towel

Good tomorrow

I lost so much blood

Half of his face was almost broken off.

You said it's okay

Doctor, please take another look.

Prescribe him some good medicine

It's true that excessive liver fire needs to be reduced.

Da Wen's medicine needs to be bought from the best source.

Not a single penny can be saved

Taking medicine when you're not sick

This is called "trying to suffer when you can't"—it's your own fault.

Everyone hasn't eaten yet.

You gave such a brat so much!

Aren't you afraid she'll burst from overeating?

Xiaoyu almost died in the river today.

you mean

My daughter doesn't even deserve a cornbread bun.

She had a long day of trouble.

Send it to her

Don't make a fool of yourself right after the doctor leaves.

There wasn't a trace of heartache in his father's words.

Only calculations to maintain face

My good brother's medicine cannot be skimped on.

My daughter can't miss a single bite of her food.

How can a little girl eat so much?

Will others still eat?

daughter

Xiaoyu had just been pulled out of the river.

Can't even eat this little bit of food

Your mother is muddle-headed.

Send it over quickly

A whole day of trouble

She must be hungry too.

There was no concern in the father's words.

Instead, it seemed as if they believed Xiaoyu was deliberately causing trouble.

You're deliberately going against me.

Whoever does the work gets to eat.

From now on, my daughter will have to eat as much as she does.

After you finish eating, take your brother's medicine.

There's nothing good at home.

Eat first, and wait until you feel better.

Mom will find a way to nourish you.

This thing is hard enough to smash zombies.

It's really for human consumption.

In the apocalypse, even a fresh vegetable leaf is hard to find.

What right do I have to complain about food?

Mother said my eldest sister is sick.

Pear blossoms cannot be stolen

These should be left for tomorrow.

A 4-year-old child

They've even learned to worry about their next meal.

No need to hide

I'll have an older sister to feed me from now on.

Just one bite for you

Do you often feel hungry?

Drink as much milk as you are given.

I'm afraid I'll take an extra bite.

He scolded you for being unfilial.

Eat whatever you want from now on, don't be afraid of him.

father

Can they really protect us?

Leave it as is

The eldest brother eats snacks and lives in a brick house.

My wife and daughters, on the other hand, were crammed into the storage room, eating cornbread and bran.

I've worked hard all these years

I originally thought that by supporting a scholar

The whole family can benefit.

Only now do I understand

The so-called light never shines on me or my family.

Da Wen, drink it while it's hot.

Why

What is this?

So bitter

The more bitter the medicine, the better.

30 coins a pair

Not a single drop can be wasted.

Mom found you some candy

The medicine won't taste bitter if you eat candy after taking it.

Da Wen opened his mouth

30 coins a pack, drink it quickly!

Not a single drop can be left.

Mother, there must be something wrong with this medicine.

How could it be so bitter?

What do you know? The more bitter the medicine, the better it is.

Mother wouldn't harm you

Come

Eat a candy to sweeten your mouth

My mother worked hard to raise me

Good things should be reserved for you.

snort

Isn't it bitter?

It's alright, sweeter than my uncle's expression just now.

Third son's wife

Keep Da Wen's medicine dregs

I'll stay up again tomorrow.

good

Boil the dregs of Xiaoyu's medicine one more time.

Can't I just drink two more doses?

daughter

The medicinal properties of the dregs are weaker after the second application.

When we have money

We buy new ones

Every day, Old Mrs. Sun stands outside the door and berates me for faking illness.

Daughter White Sky

Boil medicine at night

He reached out and touched my forehead several times during the night.

Is this what family feels like?

There's no firewood left in the house.

There's no more pig feed.

One or two people guarding an ancestor who was feigning illness

Are you trying to work me to death?

Xiaoyu's face was still pale.

I'll go chop the firewood.

You are all unfilial

He'll be fine long ago if he eats a big bowl of porridge every day.

I won't chop two baskets of firewood today.

Don't want to eat dinner

If you keep pressuring him, I'll go up the mountain with him today.

Let the eldest brother come back to do it.

The child is just getting better

What are you making a fuss about?

Cut less

The old lady plays the villain.

The old man finally came out pretending to be a good guy.

This is the truly difficult person to deal with in this family.

If you can't cut it, come back; don't be stubborn.

Not enough to cut two baskets

No dinner

Mother, say one more word

I'm leaving the farm work behind right now.

Chopping wood was just a side thing.

I'll see if I can find it in this mountain.

What truly makes us leave the Zhao family

He came to chop wood as soon as he recovered.

Your grandma is really generous.

Aunt Liu, I'm almost done.

You went up the mountain to dig for wild vegetables?

The famines of recent years

The wild vegetables from the mountain are barely enough to make a dish.

Alas, the end of the world is coming to an end.

Green plants are rarer than meat.

The people here actually think wild vegetables are barely authentic and don't know their value.

People can't get in

Even living things cannot survive

Fortunately, inanimate objects can be placed anywhere.

20 square meters is enough

This is honeysuckle.

Although I only studied Traditional Chinese Medicine for a few years in university

But I can still recognize common medicinal herbs.

If the county town pharmacy accepts

This is the first way to make money.

Why so late?

Your mother was so anxious she was almost crying.

Dad found something good

There are flowers and wild vegetables at the bottom of the basket on the left.

Take it home quietly and bring it inside

Your skinny arms are really full of cuts.

Grandma said she wouldn't give him food if he didn't fill two baskets.

How could I dare to be less?

She'll scold me when I get back.

Just pretend she's farting.

The stench will dissipate in a while.

One

How much does Zhao Di eat?

Xiaoyu eats as much as she wants.

Xiaoyu did even more work.

Zhao Di brought home three sons for her second son.

Can she compare?

Does a money-losing scoundrel deserve to eat dry rations?

If you ask me, this girl should change her name to Pandi.

Isn't Lai Di doing just fine?

Why call it Xiaoyu?

The name of the unlucky lesbian

The name was chosen by my father.

You are not satisfied

Go talk to your dad.

Do I even have an ounce of flesh on my body?

I chop wood every day

Even cutting pig feed, I'm still hungry every day.

It's okay if you don't give milk.

I'm going to Aunt Liu's house to borrow some wild vegetables to fill my stomach.

Pay it back tomorrow

Eat as much as you want

If it's not enough, I'll give you mine too.

But if you keep cheating and shirking your duties...

Don't stay in this house.

Dad, we are family.

How can you just break up like that?

I have no son

Once separated

Who will take care of me in my old age and see me off when I die?

Dare? Dare right now!

It would be foolish to miss such a great opportunity.

If you know you're afraid, then you should work honestly.

We don't support idlers at home.

We're all one family

Say less

Uncle Xiaoyu, this is for you.

The second wife was no pushover either.

Besides his parents and Lihua, this family...

You can't trust anyone completely.

After finishing her meal, Song hurried off to feed the pigs, wash the pots and do the laundry.

Dad, I have something to tell you tonight.

After I jumped into the river

I vaguely saw an old man with a white beard

He said I wasn't meant to die.

They also said that girls can support a family.

A fairy saved you

Tomorrow we'll buy some paper money and go to the river to thank him.

Let your daughter finish speaking first.

After the immortal left

My mind is filled with so many things.

I suddenly became familiar with herbs

I can make some food and small gadgets.

Can still read the couplets on the gate?

You can read

My daughter is truly blessed.

This flower is a medicinal herb.

Dad will go to the county town to ask tomorrow.

If the pharmacy accepts

We can earn money ourselves

So what if I don't have a son?

My daughter is favored by a celestial being.

Better than five sons

From childhood, we've been used to the saying that those without children will have no one to care for them in their old age.

I don't know if Xiaoyu's current situation is good or bad.

Mother, Lihua and I are both your children.

What a son can do

We can do it too.

This is something only the three of us are allowed to know.

What ways will Xiaoyu come up with to make money in the future?

Just say it was my idea.

Lihua is still young

And can't tell

If you really make money

Not handed over to the palace

What if Mom finds out?

I earned it and handed it over to the palace.

The daughter earned her own savings.

I'll fight anyone who dares to touch me.

This cheapskate dad is clearer-headed than I am.

As long as you have silver

Separation is no longer a dead end

I'll go wait in front of the pharmacy.

Leaving so early

Go early and return early under the cover of night.

So as not to be seen

The first real sum of money that truly belonged to us.

Just look at this basket of flowers

The person who was most argumentative was gone.

There's no need to give so much food to the mother and daughters of the three families.

After Mom finishes eating, let's go back to our room to sleep.

Dad said whoever eats how much work they have to do.

You have a say in front of your elders.

Eat as much as I'm given.

My parents worked hard in the fields a lot.

I cut the firewood.

I cut the pig feed.

Chickens are fed with pear blossoms

Mother does all the laundry and cooking.

How much did the second wife do?

If we call this eating for free...

What about others?

The second brother called me.

Today I'll teach the third child.

This sharp-tongued girl

father

Xiaoyu is still not well.

Punish me if you want.

Help! My dad's going to kill me! Help!

What's wrong with Yu Yatou?

Grandpa said we're just eating rice for free.

My second uncle hit me.

I will no longer eat cornbread.

Please give Pear Blossom a bite of rice.

Why can't you work?

Mother, please stop talking.

The Zhao family truly doesn't treat the three parties as human beings.

Everyone in the village knows that Xiaoyu chops firewood and gathers pig feed every day.

Pear Blossom was as thin as a three-year-old child.

Don't you have any men in your family?

Have two maids do this

It's all a joke

The child took it seriously.

Xiaoyu went home for dinner.

father

You really won't hit me?

Don't hit

Auntie, the day I didn't go to chop firewood

You should call the village chief to rescue me.

OK

If you didn't go out

I went to call someone.

Uncle Zhao's child was just pulled out of the river.

Don't let it really lead to someone's death.

Did Mom and Dad bully you and your mother again while I was away?

It's okay, I'm used to it.

It's just that the two children have suffered.

Will Daddy's pharmacy accept our honeysuckle?

Fresh honeysuckle costs 20 coins per pound

We'll also accept the dry ones.

This is the money from selling flowers today.

A pound of flowers can sell for 20 coins.

This is your private collection.

We're not doing any work in the fields today.

Our whole family went up the mountain to pick...

But grandparents will scold them.

I get scolded even when I'm working.

Even if you don't do it, you'll still get scolded.

Let them curse

Making money for my daughter is the most important thing

Then pick the nectar from the mountain.

Don't leave him even one.

Father, that's honeysuckle.

Let's go

Why

Pick one flower at a time

No one should be stingy with their energy today.

Flowers should not be crushed.

Take it off and relax.

Good appearance is what makes it valuable

Eldest sister Pear Blossom also makes money

The money earned by pear blossoms

I'll buy you candy later.

What to do if you run into an acquaintance on the street?

Just say you're going to chop wood.

You wait here

I'll bring you food when I get back.

One

Father smells of meat

This is the first time our family hasn't had to go through...

Old Mrs. Sun could then decide where the money was spent.

All the honeysuckle that was picked was sold.

I bought some meat buns to eat first.

One meat bun per person

No one is allowed to give way

I'll be fine with steamed buns.

Let's share the good fortune together.

Don't push food away every time you eat.

If Mom doesn't eat, we won't eat either.

Eat quickly, then you have to pick them.

Come back to sell tomorrow morning

Can't take it home tonight

The flowers will rot if you cover them up overnight.

Since space can preserve food

It must be used on the blade.

Where have you been all day?

No one is doing the work in the fields.

No one feeds the chickens

Pig feed wasn't even gathered.

Third brother, what you've done is truly outrageous.

You don't work

It all fell on our shoulders.

Didn't Dad say we were just freeloaders?

We went up the mountain to pick wild vegetables.

I won't eat at home anymore.

It's not like you're getting a good deal.

You dare to say that this family is not your place to make the decisions?

If you don't want to eat, then don't eat.

I wonder how many days they can survive on wild vegetables.

When they're really hungry, they'll come back to beg.

What will Dad do about the work in the fields tomorrow?

You hold on for now.

Call up the big pillar and the second pillar as well.

Ten-year-old boys should be working in the fields long ago.

In the past, there were three houses supporting it.

Only then can our family relax.

I'm already finding it hard to keep up on the first day.

They're waiting for us to beg for mercy.

We're determined to live better.

Continue up the mountain tomorrow morning

Whoever begs for mercy first is the grandson.

Left overnight

How come it still looks as fresh as if it was just picked?

Hehe, the room is cool.

Maybe I'll get lucky

I'll carry the honeysuckle into town right now.

Dad went to sell flowers

We continued up the mountain

Pick one more day

The honeysuckle in this patch has been harvested.

I bought some eggs at noon to make soup.

We'll finish eating here in this abandoned house.

Wait until dawn before going up the mountain, don't fall.

Dad and Lao San's family have disappeared again.

How can we work on the land today?

No one feeds the chickens

There's no more pig feed.

These few annoying things are trying to kill me.

The second son's family went to cook.

Come to the land to cut pig feed and feed the chickens

Dazhu and Erzhu followed the old woman to the fields

You wash the clothes

I will serve this whole family for the rest of my life.

Even in old age, I still have to do laundry.

I don't want to live anymore

Close the chimney.

Isn't being ashamed enough?

The eldest brother's family refused.

The third son's family wouldn't stand for it.

Why should my family support the whole family?

No three-bedroom

These grueling tasks

They put all their bets on their own people.

Everyone better get to work in the fields tomorrow.

How did it used to be?

What to do next

father

We've been working from the beginning to the end of the year for years.

Have you rested for a few days?

Even cows have moments of breathing.

Stop talking nonsense.

Either get back to work

Either get out of the Zhao family or choose for yourself.

They were given no houses or land.

Our family might not even have a place to stay.

good

Then let Xiaoyu go and ask the village chief.

etc.

ah

We have no sons after the division.

What to do next?

After death, buried in yellow earth

Who knows those

We have two daughters

I don't believe they would abandon us.

What happened to Yu Yatou?

Grandpa said either we should work like oxen

Either get out of the house

He wants to separate the three houses.

Please come over.

The clan chief must also be asked to witness.

Only the third son without a son was given away.

Old Zhao really did it.

Come on, let's find the clan chief and go to your house together.

This time in front of the village chief and clan chief

Let's see how you take back what you said.

Who told you to actually call people over?

Didn't I say...?

Either work like an ox

Or should I get out of the Zhao family?

Of course, the village chief and clan head must be present as witnesses when dividing the family property.

Old Su and his eldest and second sons are inseparable.

They deliberately kicked out the third son who had no sons.

You need to make this clear.

Big Tree has done a lot of work in the fields and at home over the years.

How did you become someone who eats for free?

A few words between family members

He took it seriously because he was just a child.

When did I say we were really separating?

What I just said really carried weight.

Everyone in the room heard it.

Do you have the right to interrupt adults?

That little bitch is always stirring up trouble.

The child just jumped into the river once

You still curse like that

They came inside to say something because they thought the matter wasn't serious enough.

The third child has been throwing a tantrum and refusing to get out of bed these past few days.

They don't do any housework either.

Was it wrong for me, as the father, to say a few words to him?

My second brother and I did the spring plowing.

Firewood and pig feed for feeding chickens and washing clothes at home

Which of these would be missing without our Sanfeng?

How much more do you want them to do?

I'll let you rest for three days.

Three days later, as usual

Three days is not enough

I need to rest for ten days.

How much will the second wife do in the future?

I'll do as much as I can.

The work of the two wives' four children was divided into four parts.

Xiaoyu only does one portion.

Who will let him go to the river to pull weeds and wash clothes again?

I'll fight anyone who comes my way.

You're going against me, you're trying to bargain with your parents.

If you can't stand it, then separate.

I still stand by what I said.

father

The third brother needs to rest.

I need to rest too.

Why are you causing trouble?

These days, the three old men and their wives aren't doing any work.

The entire burden rests on my family.

My older brother studies in the county town and doesn't need to work.

If the third brother can rest, why can't I?

No one in the family is more noble than anyone else.

Big pillar, second pillar, still small

We can't let them take on all the adults' chores.

My second brother wasn't helping me.

But the result was favorable to all three parties.

Since everyone is tired, sir

Let's take a few days off together.

You always say that family members should be fair.

Very well

They're all like old men.

Everyone needs to rest

Your mother and I are going to the fields to feed the pigs and chop firewood.

Whether it succeeds or not

The father got so angry

Are we going up the mountain again tomorrow?

Go to the mountains where there is silver

Why not go?

Let them curse.

First, earn the money.

If separated

From now on, I won't have to do anything secretly.

Your grandfather couldn't bear to part with the family's laborers.

Besides, we have neither land nor house.

That little money could only build a mud-brick house at most.

What will the family eat in the future?

Then keep earning.

We'll earn enough to have a house, food, and the confidence to leave.

You get up earlier than the chickens.

Going up the mountain to dig for wild vegetables again?

Yes, dig up more while it's cool.

Let's rest here for a while.

You go up first.

Let's go up the mountain and meet there.

Termitomyces albuminosus

Mushrooms can also be sold for money

This energy might be more expensive than meat.

Is this silver, sister?

If you damage one flower, you lose a bite of meat.

You're late.

The meal has been finished.

It's not that we don't want to leave any for you.

It's your own fault for not making it.

snort

There's no firewood left in the house.

I'll carry a few loads back tomorrow in the light rain.

Dad said to rest for ten days.

We didn't eat at home today either.

It's fair that whoever eats chops wood.

After being pulled back from the river

Your personality changed.

Could it be that the third brother was...?

It's something clean that's stuck.

Xiaoyu is doing very well.

He died once.

I know I can no longer let others bully me.

I was so naive before.

Xiaoyu was almost gnawed to death, leaving not even a bone.

This will be how it is from now on.

Also, teach Pear Blossom to be smarter.

I understand, Dad.

You're still protecting him.

It doesn't change the fact that you don't have a son.

Dad, don't look so downcast.

Mother is still young

Who says we can't have children in the future?

Even if we don't have children

Even Pear Blossom and I can find a son-in-law to live with us.

The child will still bear the surname Zhao.

Yeah, how come I didn't think of that?

Hmph, do you think it's so easy to find a live-in son-in-law?

Do you own land or a house?

Based on the wild vegetables in the basket

snort

The rest of the day

Eat it all tonight

I'll have the energy to continue climbing the mountain tomorrow.

Send these into the city tomorrow.

As long as the things in the mountains can be exchanged for silver

Fields and houses

We'll have it sooner or later.

Not only did they not go hungry

On the contrary, there were eggs to eat.

What exactly did the third wife go about?

Only a few flowers yesterday

Why are so many people popping up today?

Termitomyces often grows in patches

Search carefully in the vicinity

Don't miss a single one.

Mother and Pear Blossom were in charge of digging for mushrooms.

I searched for medicinal herbs nearby.

Rehmannia glutinosa

Dad, take this to the pharmacy.

See if it's worth anything.

You and your mother stay here.

I'll go ask first.

I also went to the city

Termitomyces mushrooms do not keep well

We have to sell it today.

Dad, go to the pharmacy first.

I'll go to the restaurant by myself.

They came to beg for food.

I'm here to sell mountain products.

I want to see your manager

Open it and take a look.

Just picked

Good condition

Is 45 yuan per jin acceptable?

Meat costs no more than 35 coins per pound

Mushrooms are more expensive than meat!

The shopkeeper is a discerning person.

You name the price, that's all.

I never expected a farm girl to be so composed.

Come in and let's talk.

7.6 feel

A total of 342 articles

If there are still such fresh ones in the future

You can continue to send them.

But there are bad ones.

I don't want the old one.

Rest assured, we only send the best.

Daughter

Have the medicinal herbs been sold?

Do you know how many you sold?

Dad's eyes were practically sparkling.

The termite mushrooms I sold here cost 342 coins.

Where is your prepared rehmannia root?

It doesn't contain copper coins.

Instead, it was broken silver.

Sold for more than 12 taels

Don't show it on the street

Buy some food first.

Mother and Pear Blossom are still waiting on the mountain.

Buy meat buns

I made a lot of money today.

Buy a roast chicken

Buy the largest

The mountain has more than just medicinal herbs and termite mushrooms.

As long as you find value that others haven't discovered.

The money will keep coming in

Which one would you like, sir?

Just it

Let's go buy some more meat buns.

Black steamed buns and several bamboo tubes filled with water

Look what this is.

meat

How much money would that cost?

We've just earned a little bit

How could you waste it like this?

My father and I sold the chicken mushrooms for over 300 copper coins.

The prepared rehmannia root sold for 12 taels of silver.

So much silver

It really is ours

The money earned by my daughter

Of course it's ours!

Give the chicken leg to the kids.

You can just eat chicken necks.

A chicken has only two legs

One for each child is enough.

Don't let anyone...

Suffering together as a family

We should enjoy happiness together.

Big Sister Chicken is Delicious

I'll buy it for you again later.

Having been married into the Zhao family for so many years

This is the first time I've ever eaten such a big piece of meat.

I used to occasionally freeload with friends.

But he never imagined that his wife and daughters would never even taste meat.

It won't happen again.

I will make sure you have enough to eat.

Eat whatever you want

Then save money first.

Houses, fields, grain

Purchase them one by one

After we finish eating, let's take a walk around the neighborhood.

See if there's anything else valuable.

This stuff is very astringent.

Even pigs don't like to eat it

It won't be astringent after treatment.

It can be stir-fried, stewed, or pickled.

Everyone in the village knows it tastes awful, so who would buy it?

Others wouldn't handle it

It's our turn to make money.

It needs to be sold to a restaurant again.

Go back and try it first.

If it really tastes good

I'll bring some to the shopkeeper to try tomorrow.

Haha, this is hardly a bamboo forest!

It was clearly a mountain of silver.

Our lives are really going to get better.

You've struck it rich!

My brother has a stutter.

How can I forget you?

I have something to tell you.

Dandelions on the mountain can be sold for money.

Pharmacies accept fresh

Not a single pound could be sold for money

If you curse me again

Don't damage the roots when digging.

Sell ​​quietly, don't shout it from everywhere.

How thin have all your kids gotten?

Take it back for them to eat

We still have

This is something your brother is giving you, so you can eat with peace of mind.

Although the big tree is unreliable, it can get along with people.

It's unlikely that he would lie to me.

I'll go dig tomorrow too.

How do you prepare these bamboo shoots?

Just boil it in water.

Blanch it once after the water boils.

Soak it in cold water again.

It's that simple.

Many things are simple in themselves.

It's just that no one tried it first.

These past few days I've been picking flowers and digging for mushrooms every day.

Pear Blossom was so tired she could barely keep her eyes open.

Pear Blossom, go back to your room and sleep first.

When the bamboo shoots are ripe, Mom will call you.

Wash your hands first next time

It's really not astringent anymore.

Still crisp and fresh

This would definitely be delicious if stir-fried with meat.

Not only can it be used to stir-fry meat

It can also be used to stew chicken and duck.

Pickled bamboo shoots

It's a pity we're in the old house.

Large-scale processing cannot be carried out in the hospital.

Otherwise, my grandparents will take it away from me sooner or later.

Making money still has to be done secretly

This life is so frustrating.

If the family separates

We can cook as much as we want.

Are there any trustworthy people in Dad's village who can keep their mouths shut?

I'm not bragging

Half the men in the village are my brothers.

What I need is someone who can work.

The secret

There are several.

You want them to break bamboo shoots

Don't rush to find it.

Today we spent half a day digging for chicken palms.

I'll pick some more tender bamboo shoots and take them to the city for a trial sale.

If the shopkeeper refuses to accept

Finding more people won't help.

Cheng is the boss

Do whatever you say.

Parents and Lihua

Our movements are much more skillful than they were a few days ago.

Hahaha

If the bamboo shoots can be sold

Our family alone can't make up for it.

I know a lot of people

One shout and the whole village will come to help.

Help is possible

The formula and selling price cannot be disclosed.

People's hearts are hidden behind their bellies

Choose the one who keeps their mouth shut first.

Your dad may seem unreliable

He's good at judging people.

Uncle Li and Uncle Qian can both use it.

Now we have the confidence to split up.

Yes, but we rashly proposed splitting up.

He will definitely become suspicious.

Oh, my daughter

How could you possibly make your grandfather dislike me?

Then kick us out of the house!

I'm starting to really dislike you.

If your leg is broken

They might kick us out right away.

The leg must not be broken.

I still need to earn money to support my family.

The older ones don't want it.

Only the thickness of an arm

Newly unearthed

It would be a shame to not keep so many.

Restaurants prioritize taste.

Poor appearance

Even when delivered to the door, it will be returned.

My daughter is right.

We placed fresh shallots on top of the bamboo shoots.

This looks like just ordinary mountain produce.

Be careful on the road

Don't worry if you can't sell them.

If you can't sell it, you won't lose money.

Yesterday's chicken and mushroom dinner sold out.

Are there still customers ordering today?

Quickly take a look at the goods in the two baskets.

Uncle Shopkeeper

Let's look at something else.

Bamboo shoots are bitter

People in the countryside don't eat it

Restaurants should not accept it.

Can I use the kitchen?

I cook a dish

If it doesn't taste good

We left immediately.

The chicken-shaped mushrooms he sent were of very good quality.

Why not give him a chance to try?

Let's see what the effect is.

Bamboo shoots can be prepared in this way

Crisp, tender and fragrant

My daughter can do seven or eight kinds of things.

Stir-fried meat is just the simplest

I can accept the items.

You can also buy a solution.

But the price needs to be negotiated carefully.

Fresh bamboo shoots are eight coins per pound

Processing methods and recipes are separate.

Eight coins is too expensive

Maximum of six

The shopkeeper tasted it

You should know whether it's worth it or not.

The price is not right

We can ask other places.

Okay, let's go sit in the private room.

One article at a time

Six coins per catty

I also need to produce fatty meat and labor.

If it gets any more expensive, there's no profit to be made.

Bamboo shoots are everywhere on the mountain

But only we can remove the astringency.

The shopkeeper didn't buy a bamboo shoot.

It's a new dish that no one else has.

You're raising the price by seven coins without even asking for it.

Twelve words

Eight coins is the most you can have.

The transaction has already yielded a substantial profit of eight coins.

Why

The ingredients are calculated separately, 1-4 ounces.

Shopkeeper, don't rush

I can make it first.

Have the staff give the customers samples.

After seeing the effect

Then you'll know whether it's worth it or not.

The customer said, "One more plate!"

7 prescriptions, 28 taels

Adding termite mushrooms and other cooking methods

I'll give you a total of 35 taels.

Is that alright now?

335 taels

When will the tender bamboo shoots be available for delivery?

How much do you need per day?

There are 8 restaurants near my home.

One family sent 20 jin first

160 jin a day

If it sells well, add more.

Uncle is not giving

It can be delivered tomorrow

Don't worry, brother.

Our products are absolutely fresh.

Send a batch tomorrow to try it out.

After that, fixed time

The bamboo shoots must be tender.

Process it properly before weighing.

I asked the waiter to pack a snack.

Take it back for my little niece to eat

Thanks a lot, brother.

Father had only sat for a short while

They had already become sworn brothers.

No wonder he said half the village were brothers.

This ability to be so familiar with others

It's definitely not something an ordinary person can have.

This time, the family division resulted in my leg being broken.

I also get points

Don't shout that there are too many people on the street.

160 jin a day

The four of us can't break it up.

There's no time to deal with it.

First go to Grandma's house

Let them dig up dandelions and bamboo shoots

I'll collaborate with Uncle Liu again.

Purchase from the village

How much do you pay per pound?

One article is about handling the transportation of sex and relationships with restaurants.

What remains is profit.

Hurry up and get to your hometown before dark.

A business that can truly generate long-term profits

Officially started operating

The big tree came at this time

Has something happened to my daughter?

Mother, don't panic, it's a good thing.

Xiaoyu and I recently sold the dandelion to the pharmacy.

Bamboo shoots were also sent to the restaurant.

I exchanged a lot of money

The mountain was covered with wild grass and bitter bamboo shoots

Someone actually paid to buy it.

The price has been agreed upon.

One pound of bamboo shoots for one coin

But only tender bamboo shoots

You can't mix in the old or the bad.

Mother-in-law must have roots

Shake off the dirt

Our whole family will go tomorrow.

Where to send it after digging it up?

Delivered to Liu Shunzi's house

Don't go to the Zhao family's old house

Xiaoyu and I went to the restaurant

We arranged to deliver daily.

Order for 160 jin of tender bamboo shoots

160 jin a day

You guys are crazy

The whole family tried everything, but they couldn't get it out.

That's why I sought out Uncle Liu for cooperation.

We buy tender bamboo shoots at one coin per kilogram.

Villagers delivered to your home

You and Dad are in charge of inspecting and weighing the goods.

Mother and Aunt Liu led people to blanch the meat to remove the color.

Then we'll take them into the city.

Using my yard is no problem.

But if your parents knew

They'll definitely cause trouble.

All they know is that we went up the mountain to dig for wild vegetables.

I don't know who to sell it to.

The harvest is right at your doorstep

Put it in the yard

Unauthorized personnel are not allowed to enter.

Uncle, you've really struck it rich!

Keep it down, this is the capital for harvesting bamboo shoots.

Put it away tomorrow

Pay on the spot

No old or rotten stuff, please.

If someone makes a fuss

Let the village chief set the rules.

Even brothers should keep clear accounts.

I received the goods for you.

How are wages calculated?

30 coins a day plus meals

Too many

More work, more responsibility

The silver scales and the goods are both in your hands.

You must find a trustworthy person.

Put it in your hands first

Bring it again tomorrow morning

So many things left at home at night

I can't sleep.

Let's go home first today.

We'll discuss more detailed countermeasures tomorrow.

Today, a light rain brought me along.

But he accomplished something big.

We will begin supplying the restaurant daily starting tomorrow.

160 catties of tender bamboo shoots per day

First, I processed the tender bamboo shoots at Shunzi's house.

Then deliver to the restaurant

So many bamboo shoots were processed in the yard

Can you really hide it from your parents?

Therefore, we need to ask the village chief to take charge.

As long as Uncle Liu is involved in the acquisition

Even if grandparents make a fuss, they'll go to the Liu family to make a fuss.

The ten-day break is not over yet.

They can't control me.

What about ten days later?

Let's just get through these next few days.

Earn more money

When it really comes to the point where there's no way to back down...

We have also saved enough capital to start our own business.

I separated from them.

This money must be hidden well.

How many... cannot be known to outsiders

Don't worry, my mouth is tighter than a mouse hole.

You and Aunt Liu should go find the village chief now.

Borrow another large iron pot

Let's set the rules today.

The official harvest will take place tomorrow morning.

The sesame seed cakes given by rich people always smell better.

Hahaha

Village chief, we now need to do this daily

160 catties of tender bamboo shoots were sent to the restaurant

I'd like to ask the villagers for help digging bamboo shoots.

I buy it for one coin per pound.

One coin per kilogram

The villagers would definitely be willing to dig.

But let me make this clear from the start.

We can't cheat people with old or rotten bamboo shoots.

That's why we asked you to take charge.

You inspect the goods at the door.

Nobody dared to cause trouble.

This is to find a way for the village to make a living.

I can't ignore it

I'll go to the Liu family's house for half a day tomorrow.

First, establish the rules.

Starting tomorrow

Liu Shunzi's family harvests tender bamboo shoots

One coin per kilogram

Only freshly unearthed tender bamboo shoots are harvested.

Pat the soil clean

Don't want old or rotten ones.

Those things all over the mountain can really be exchanged for money.

Weighing on the spot

Give copper coins on the spot

Anyone who doesn't believe it, try digging up 10 jin (5 catties) first.

Ten catties is ten coins

Better than digging for wild vegetables all day

Don't steal the bamboo forest, it belongs to the village.

Who dares to destroy the roots?

Break the unripe ones

No more digging allowed.

yes

good

The village chief will personally sit at the door tomorrow morning.

The pot was also borrowed.

Half the village is waiting to dig bamboo shoots to earn money.

I really envy you

Orphaned at a young age

Nobody's pressuring you every day.

If Father heard what you said...

He can chase you for half the village with a stick.

Big Tree, we've been brothers for over 20 years

To be honest

Let's split up as soon as possible.

You can make money now

If your parents knew

I want to divide you up after I've eaten you to pieces.

My father wouldn't let him go.

He couldn't bear to part with the three working mules.

Therefore, it's even more important to hold onto the money tightly.

Starting tomorrow, all your money will be with me.

Zhao Xiaoyu opened the floodgates

These past few days, the land has been barren and no firewood has been cut.

People are nowhere to be seen every day

Tomorrow the whole family will go bamboo shoot picking.

Bring it back and hand it over to the palace.

We are still resting for 10 days.

You're eating and drinking for free and you still think you're right?

If I don't pick enough baskets tomorrow...

Nobody should eat.

That's what Dad meant too.

A family cannot only think of itself.

The second child's family all went.

You have to go too.

The third son did whatever his parents told him to do.

Why all this nonsense?

What are you doing, sir?

Want to separate

We need to show the whole village how they're forcing us.

Father, you just need to kneel down for a while.

I'm in charge of calling them over.

Will such deception be punished?

They dared to sell my daughter

Let's put on a show, what's the harm in not putting on a show?

Sooner or later, all the money and business will be stolen.

Parents, please, give your son a way to live!

What are you trying to do now?

Help! Grandma beat my dad so badly his face is covered in blood!

We're going to be killed.

Grandpa and Grandma asked our whole family to pick bamboo shoots.

They still won't give us food.

Dad said he'd rest for ten days, but it hasn't been ten days yet.

Grandma scolded him for being unfilial.

He even hit him.

Granny Zhao really had the heart to do that.

Is this his biological son?

The whole family of four knelt down

That's so pitiful.

My second uncle also told us to be obedient.

Do whatever your grandparents tell you to do.

But we're hungry!

These days, my family doesn't leave me any food.

We can only go up the mountain to drink wild vegetable soup.

When Dad was feeling down, he took us to the mountain to keep Great-Grandpa company.

They were clearly digging for medicinal herbs on the mountain.

How did it become accompanying my great-grandfather?

Xiaoyu, don't talk nonsense.

When did I ever let you go hungry?

I dare not say it.

Please don't hit me.

making noise in the middle of the night

I didn't hit it.

I don't know where the blood came from.

Grandma said she wouldn't give us food if we didn't work.

Dad said he'd rest for ten days, but it hasn't been ten days yet.

He rushed up and started cursing.

My second uncle also told us to be obedient.

Grandpa and Grandma do whatever they ask.

It's gotten like this.

They even said they were advising

Must we be treated like cattle?

I really wish I could take this...

The whole family was silenced.

Rain Girl stirs up trouble all day long

Third brother, you should also do something about this.

Grandpa said it right

Xiaoyu is just being immature.

I was just terrified by the blood on my dad's face.

Even if grandparents are angry again

I will definitely stand in front of Dad and take the hit for him.

This sounds like an admission of wrongdoing.

In reality, however, black and white have been turned upside down.

Draw attention to Zhao Dashu's injury

The kids are all ready to take the beating for their dad.

How are we supposed to live like this?

This girl's courage and cunning

Far from being like an ordinary farm girl

Uncle Zhao, your family is always making trouble, in my opinion.

Why not just split it off?

Didn't you say before that you wanted to give away the third son?

That was just said in anger.

Saying something in anger is okay once.

It's pointless to threaten to kick people out every other day.

It was cool when I came in at night.

The third brother and his family have already distanced themselves from you.

Keeping them will only cause trouble every day.

The eldest son is about to take the imperial examination to become a scholar.

If scandals about selling one's granddaughter and beating one's son are constantly circulating in the family...

That's what truly affects one's future.

Besides, the third son has no son.

It was never going to amount to anything.

Take this opportunity to separate him

Later, the eldest son passed the imperial examination.

I won't be dragged down by this reckless younger brother.

What I care about most is Da Wen's future.

Brother, do you mean it's actually a good thing to split up now?

One is willing to hit

One who doesn't want to be

What's the point of keeping it?

Since the third son felt there was no way for the family to make a living, then they should divide the property.

Head of household

Dad really wants to kick us out

It's because you're unwilling to work.

It's not that I rushed it.

Mother, don't be afraid, we have hands and feet.

Will not starve

If you're going to divide it, then divide it properly.

We can't just drive people away without giving them a way to survive.

This is a matter for the Zhao family.

Not tomorrow

Let's clarify the terms tonight.

To avoid further trouble

Finally, it's here!

As long as you step out of this door

The Zhao family will never get it again.

Our silver is for Zhao Dawen

The three parties can be separated.

They were given temporary accommodation in the old house at the entrance of the village.

They have no share of the family's farmland.

The old broken table and bedding in the house can be taken away.

Give them some more food.

Not a penny of the 25 mu of land

He has no son

Tian gave the two maids

In the future, won't it benefit outsiders?

There are also pension funds

We raised him for over 20 years

Don't raise them for nothing

One tael of silver per year

Meat and grain are indispensable during holidays and festivals.

Not even an acre of land

One or two taels of silver for retirement every year

Is this a family division or a way to send someone to their death?

As long as it can be completely separated

You can buy the land yourself later.

I won't write about this kind of classification.

They won't give me any family property.

Such a heavy burden of elderly care

If word gets out, who wouldn't gossip behind their back?

My Zhao family's things

I'll divide it however I want.

Third brother, you've gone too far?

Since no family property will be given

The burden of elder care should no longer fall on him.

How much to give as gifts during holidays and festivals in the future?

It all depends on the third son's filial piety.

No, he's my son.

Why won't you support me?

Then you shall divide the land, houses, and grain.

Continue to provide for the elderly according to village rules.

We can't expect you to have the best of both worlds.

Do you think everyone else is stupid?

The Grand Chamber Scientific Expedition requires money

The second wife also has three grandsons.

Where would there be any extra family property to give to the two maids of the third wife?

Whether you break up or not is up to you.

I don't care anymore.

The literature exam is coming up soon

We really can't stand them making such a fuss anymore.

I can't give others a reason to criticize me.

Just do as the village chief says.

No fixed house deed will be made if land is not provided for retirement.

Temporary stay only

The original items in the three rooms and

You can take your share of the food you are entitled to.

Uncle, are you sure?

confirm

Would you be willing to divide it like this, uncle?

I'll listen to my dad.

He's usually quite mischievous.

How did you become a coward?

You don't want to

I can still fight for you.

My parents gave me life and raised me

I'll accept whatever they divide it up.

This cheapskate dad's acting is even more convincing than mine.

Mother, don't be afraid, the money is in our hands.

I'll keep it safe and go to the government office to file it in a couple of days.

Household registration must also be separated

Since they broke up

We'll move to the old house at the village entrance tomorrow.

Future life, death, wealth, and honor

Each according to their own ability

knew

So what if I leave with nothing?

Starting tonight

Every penny we earned

No need to hand it over to anyone anymore

I can't believe the family division they talk about every day.

It really became a fact

Third brother, you are no longer a member of the palace.

It's getting late, so we'll move to the old house at the village entrance tomorrow.

I see

No need to wait until tomorrow

Move tonight

No matter how poor my family is

It's still possible to tidy up a room.

Come to our house

There's still hot rice in the pot.

The child can also get a good night's sleep

Humph, what a bunch of unlucky bastards!

Go wherever you want, go wherever you want.

This is all the belongings of a family of four.

Why

There's not even as much stuff in my woodshed.

Will Grandma still scold us in the future, sister?

Don't live with her

She should come up to us first if she wants to yell at us.

The grain that the second son distributed among the three families...

Give him

The third son's family left.

Who will do the cooking, feeding the pigs, and chopping firewood from now on?

We can't let our family do it all.

Reluctant

I feel like I was too stupid before.

Working hard

I thought my parents would see it sooner or later.

It turns out they had seen it all along.

I just feel like we should suffer.

From now on, I'll only do it for my own family.

right

Only for you three (mother and son)

Also, I need people to harvest bamboo shoots tomorrow.

You can't even be idle if you want, hahaha

Eat something hot first

Squeeze in tonight

We'll move in after you build your new house.

Our family has caused you trouble.

It's troublesome to say anything

Help someone in trouble

Isn't that what should be done?

Shunzi's sister-in-law

I will remember this kindness for a lifetime.

Don't talk nonsense.

Come with me to harvest bamboo shoots tomorrow, and don't be lazy!

Hahaha

For the first time, I felt like even the air itself was free.

The first day my younger brother and sister-in-law moved in

Why are you so busy?

Our family is staying at your house.

How could they really treat them as guests?

These were all allocated from the old house.

Grain and eggs given by others

I didn't touch anything in your house.

The eggs can be left for Xiaoyu and Lihua.

What good food is Mom eating today?

Thanks to Aunt Zhao

Everyone can have a good meal today.

The old house at the village entrance is leaning badly.

It sways in the wind

You can stay at my house for now.

We'll move in after the new house is built.

I don't go to the village entrance

I don't plan to build there either

Old house without title deed

One day, the old house can be taken back with a single word.

This time, the cheapskate dad finally learned his lesson.

I first used the empty house of the village chief.

Stay away from the old house

Build a house after you buy your own land

Are you afraid the old house will cause trouble?

Implicate us

sister in law

I'm afraid they'll come to my door every few days to annoy me.

We still need to harvest bamboo shoots.

The village chief sat at the door.

They dared not throw a tantrum.

You can harvest it yourself.

Why bother asking the village chief?

Please ask him to ward off evil spirits and protect the house.

Shunzi Zhenyi wen yi jin

Seventeen catties and seventeen coins

If they really give me money, I'll call my whole family to go and worship.

If someone helps me, I won't do it.

How could I not need you?

I still need to go into the hospital to process the bamboo shoots.

This doorway is all thanks to you and Shunzi.

It's easy for someone to sneak around when it gets dark.

If it gets too big later, it needs to be cut open for inspection.

Unqualified items will not be accepted.

Hmm, who would have thought?

The mountain was full of bitter bamboo shoots that no one wanted.

It can really turn into silver.

Today is just the beginning.

Fresh bamboo shoots sold out

They can also be dried into bamboo shoots.

You

That was the first one I saw.

I saw that there was no name engraved on it.

Whoever is faster gets it.

I need to rest.

I'm thirsty.

My back hurts

The mountain road is too steep

I can't walk.

I need to go to the bathroom.

Besides my husband and me, who were quite hardworking

Almost everyone else was practicing cold-resistant techniques.

Any slower and even the old man would be gone.

Why

Only sixty or seventy jin of processed bamboo shoots

One jin for one wen

I can earn sixty or seventy coins these days.

Go every day from now on

Two taels of silver a month

Just passing by someone

I can see it clearly.

Some families send two or three hundred kilograms.

Hurry up and carry it to the Liu family.

Get the money back

Not a single penny less

My Zhao family has more members than theirs.

The harvest was pitifully small.

Don't give them an excuse to cause trouble today.

Accept it if you should.

These defects are not subject to fines.

63 jin and 63 wen remaining

Today, my grandson and I sold 65 coins.

Shunzi (a type of lottery game) has enabled both the old and the young to earn money.

Without the help of the uncle's family

Your old house is really efficient.

The reward is what you do.

What exactly is Lu San busy with?

Does it concern you?

They separated and lived their own lives.

Restaurant sales increased

Orders will double starting tomorrow.

One more delivery trip per day

The existing flatbed carts are not enough

Borrow another one over there

If all else fails, rent a car

Daily deliveries cannot be delayed.

I'll buy 3 jin of the best pork belly tomorrow.

I'd like a few more pork bones.

Uncle Liu, Aunt Liu, and the village chief have been busy for so long

I need to have a good meal

Don't waste money

You still need to build houses and buy land.

My daughter said she'd buy it, and she did.

She's in charge, so I listen to her.

I'm really worried about Xiaoyu, who loves to eat and spend money so much.

It will be difficult to find a husband in the future.

If all else fails

Let the rich marry her

No matter what, we can't let our brother's daughter be stuck in our hands.

How much is this meat?

The best pork belly is 38 yuan per catty.

Regular pork belly is cheaper at 35 coins.

Do you want that 35?

The fattest one weighs three pounds.

One pound is enough

How could two families spend over a hundred coins on a meal?

You don't understand, my daughter is the head of the household.

She was unhappy if I bought too little.

You're clearly the one who's craving it.

But she shifted the blame to her 11-year-old daughter.

Boss, can you give me two bones?

My daughter makes soup

Hahahahahahahaha

Lao Tzu can't afford to do anything big.

Dad helped me break my bones

Wash two more radishes

Daughter, just call me if you need anything.

Big Tree loves his daughter even more than my Shunzi does.

When can my older sister eat?

The soup is ready to eat once it turns white.

Is the soft stuff inside edible?

It's no worse than meat

The pork belly was stewed until tender.

The spiciness and oily aroma intertwine

Shunzi, your wife's cooking skills are really good.

She didn't do it today.

Xiaoyu is in charge of cooking.

Of course, it's my daughter.

Our Old Sow Village

Her cooking skills are second best.

Nobody dares to rank first

Hahaha

You're more shameless than praising your daughter than yourself!

I am proud

Hahaha

Why does Xiaoyu's stewed green beans with pork smell so exceptionally delicious?

Blanch the meat in water first.

Remove blood foam

Render the oil again.

Stewing directly with water will result in a fishy smell.

I see

Only a few days after leaving the old house

We can already sit together and eat meat

No more worrying about the old lady snatching it from the bowl

Uncle Restaurant added an order

I need to make an extra delivery tomorrow.

Do you have any spare carts at home?

My family still needs to haul goods.

Old Qian from the west of the village has an old car

Not used on weekdays

Go ask.

I'll go now

Father borrowed

Don't take advantage of others for nothing.

Knowing we have the money to rent him

Blood is considered a good thing in meat.

Isn't it a pity to throw it away?

The blood foam had a strong fishy smell.

Reluctant to pour

The whole pot of meat doesn't taste good.

When it's time to let go, you have to let go.

That's right.

Like an old house

What must be given up must be given up.

Otherwise, the whole pot of food will rot.

Even eating can't shut you up.

Hahaha

Why does the big tree have time to come?

Sir, I'd like to rent your cart.

Three coins a day

You need to use it anytime.

Thanks to your recent bamboo shoot harvest...

My grandson and I go to the mountain to pick bamboo shoots every day.

The car is just sitting idle anyway.

Push it away and it's free.

That would mean the car would be worn out and need repairs.

You let our grandfather and grandson be able

Earn good money for winter cotton

What kind of person would I be if I kept collecting rent?

After that, when the goods came back...

I'll bring you some things.

Please don't refuse.

Walk carefully on the road

Don't crush the bamboo shoots.

Inspect the goods before unloading at the restaurant.

Don't worry, my daughter.

I pull the cart more steadily than an ox.

Just don't start chatting with strangers.

Just forget about the journey.

Several nearby restaurants also want to increase their orders.

The number will increase again tomorrow.

Can it be offered?

The whole mountain is full of bamboo shoots

You can add it, but the quality will remain the same.

Less goods, less delivery

Old bamboo shoots cannot be used to make up the numbers.

The old man has been busy since morning without taking a break.

Take advantage of the opportunity to make money

Work a few more days

In winter, you can add a cotton-padded jacket for your child.

Put some meat buns in the old man's car

They'll take it back in a bit.

You can't give money directly

To avoid the elderly refusing

Aunt Liu added an order to the restaurant today

I'm in a good mood

I'd like to buy one of your chickens.

Everyone stewed it to celebrate.

We keep our chickens for laying eggs, not for selling.

You father and daughter each have one flower and two flowers.

Will the house still be built after it's finished?

Earning money is about improving our lives.

The storage

You have to eat what you're supposed to eat.

Yu Yatou is good at making money.

They can spend money like crazy.

Rich and lazy

These two together

It might just bankrupt them.

You just separated your family

We should save money first to buy land and build a house.

Eat meat every day

No matter how much money you have, it won't last.

Sister-in-law, don't worry.

We know what's going on.

You need to eat well to have the energy to work.

We don't eat delicacies every day.

Da Wen has lost weight

They definitely didn't eat well in the county town.

Mom will stew chicken for you.

Who cooks this meat?

Who else could it be?

The third son lived in Liushazi's house.

Eat meat every few days

The fragrance wafts over here every day.

The third child was separated.

snort

They are never home.

They don't do any work.

Still fooling around

It even alarmed the village chief.

Leaving with nothing and still being able to eat meat every day

They're helping the Liu family harvest bamboo shoots now.

Life is good.

Is Dad the third son a person who is willing to suffer losses?

He had nothing at the time.

I thought he had lost his support.

They will come back to ask for help soon.

But after he separated from his family

Immediately help Liu Shunzi harvest bamboo shoots

They also eat meat every day

What does this mean?

This shows that he already knew bamboo shoots could make money.

They had even discussed it with Liu Shunzi long ago.

He previously complained about not wanting to work.

Kneeling in the courtyard and calling for the village chief

It was all for their own benefit after the family split.

That heartless bastard

You dare to scheme against your parents?

Let's work for a while longer.

Let's buy a piece of land first.

We can't always rely on others.

We still need to keep some money for safety.

What if the business suddenly disappears?

Bamboo shoots are seasonal

Once you've earned the money, you must convert it into cash.

My own house and land

My uncle's family came back today.

The old house will definitely ask about our business.

We have already separated.

They could only watch with envy.

Be careful.

Zhao Dawen was short of money

They'd even sell their niece.

I will never just stand by and watch.

Parents, you've been fooled.

The third brother must have already colluded with Liu Xinzi.

With the business of collecting bamboo shoots

That's why they deliberately made a fuss about separating the family.

Are you sure?

He has no son

He used to refuse to leave the Zhao family no matter what.

Now, no one has any objections to me leaving with nothing.

After leaving, he ate meat every day.

Isn't this something we were prepared for?

I knew that family had no good intentions.

Call them back immediately.

All the money you earn has to be handed over to me.

The family division documents have been filed.

It's not easy to call them back directly.

However, the method for removing the color from bamboo shoots must be obtained.

That's a golden hen that lays eggs.

We can't just let outsiders benefit.

The thought of personally driving away a family that was making money...

I regretted it so much I felt like my guts were turning green.

After dinner, the second brother went to call the third brother.

Just say I'm back.

We need to discuss something important.

Let's work together to persuade him to reunite with his family.

Even if they don't come back

We also need to make him hand over the prescription.

Will he listen?

Hmph, my parents are still alive.

He will always be a son of the Zhao family.

Talk about filial piety and brotherhood

If he doesn't acknowledge it

They went to the village and said he had forgotten his roots after getting rich.

Tell the third brother

As long as he's willing to come back

Let bygones be bygones

Leave with nothing when kicking someone out

Now it seems the money will be wiped out again.

There's no such thing as a free lunch.

It's probably the bigwig from the county town who's coming back.

I need to summon you.

Offering favors for no reason

They're either thieves or scoundrels.

They must be after the bamboo shoot recipe.

You just need to remember

We've already split up.

The recipe was obtained after the family divided their property.

Do not make promises.

Don't be soft-hearted.

Don't worry, Dad will eat anything.

It means not to suffer a loss.

Third brother, you must have made quite a bit of money helping Shunzi harvest bamboo shoots lately, right?

I'm just a helper.

A few bites of food a day

Staying at someone else's house

Eat meat every day

They are so good to you.

I have good interpersonal relationships

Half the village are brothers

You can't have it if you envy it.

Hey, big brother's back!

This is because I don't have enough travel expenses to go to the prefectural city for the exam.

They've come home again to freeload.

Hey, Big Brother's back!

This is because I don't have enough travel expenses to go to the prefectural city for the exam.

They've come home again to freeload.

How dare you talk to your older brother like that?

He studied day and night for the sake of his family.

What have you done for this family?

I did nothing.

So you kicked me out.

I am no longer a member of the palace.

Why are you asking these questions?

First, find a way to get the prescription from Lao San.

Apologize to your father.

We are still family

The decision to separate was made in the heat of the moment.

Brothers never hold grudges overnight.

This sounds so familiar.

In the past, when you caused trouble, you always made me apologize.

You two are more like brothers.

I'm like someone who was picked up from the ground.

If you are willing to come back

The matter of the previous division of the family property can be disregarded.

You can continue living in the original house.

You'll still get a bite of food at home.

Go back to living in the storage room

Eat half a bowl of rice porridge

Let Xiaoyu chop firewood

Pear Blossom Laundry

Then use the money I earn to send my elder brother to school.

The whole family worked together

What's wrong with that?

Of course not

You are my son

I am your son

Not a longbow

If you really care about me

When the family property was divided, I wouldn't be denied even a single acre of land.

Then let's not talk about that.

We can't force you to come back if you don't want to.

However, the recipe for removing the astringency from bamboo shoots

You figured this out at the Zhao family before the family split up.

It should belong to the palace

What recipe? I'm just doing chores for Shunzi.

Buying and selling bamboo shoots are both his business.

You're still pretending to stay at the Liu family's house every day after the family split up.

You also manage the money.

You saw me take the silver.

The restaurant owner told you.

I can only guess.

No evidence

This matter needs to be addressed gradually.

The third brother should be reasonable.

Your family fed and cared for you as you grew up.

You can't just think of yourself when there are benefits.

Dad also knows that one should be reasonable.

Did you say that when you sold my daughter?

Did you say that when you told me I had to leave with nothing?

Now that he smells the aroma of meat, he's trying to reason with me.

Do you mean you refuse to reunite the family?

You should think this way

I couldn't do anything about it.

The family division agreement clearly states...

Some things, once done, can never be undone.

I, the third child, studied in the county town most of the year.

After you split up

Parents relied entirely on their second younger brother for care.

One should not be so selfish.

The day we separated

My parents said they'd mainly rely on my older brother for their old age.

The older brother was unwilling to raise it.

This third brother has sharp teeth and a sharp tongue.

He's not one to back down!

Of course I'd like to.

I'm just in the county town

Sometimes it's beyond our reach.

You and the second child usually take care of

I can study with peace of mind while away from home.

Filial piety is considered to be achieved by simply talking.

Since my brother is so thoughtful

Why not bring your parents to the county town to enjoy their retirement?

My mother-in-law is mean and difficult.

If we really live in the county town

I can forget about having a peaceful life from now on.

The county town is small

There are many children.

Where can I find a place to stay?

Doesn't my older brother live in the courtyard?

Adding two more beds would be...

That courtyard was rented.

I'm so cramped even when I live alone

During this period

Send bamboo shoots to the city

I bumped into Zhao Dawen three times.

On two occasions, he was seen embracing a strange woman.

Another time, while drinking at a restaurant

He doesn't look like a poor scholar who scrimps and saves.

Really? Big brother, you're living quite a prestigious life in the county town.

I thought I'd buy a house and live like a lord long ago.

What do you mean, third brother?

It's not interesting.

I was just reminding my older brother

Don't just use filial piety to describe others

He himself wouldn't even stay with his parents for a few days.

Have you seen the older brother in the county town?

How is he doing?

Go see for yourself if you want to know.

I have already separated from my family.

I won't get involved in your accounts.

They are brothers after all.

They sold my daughter back then

When I was asked to leave with nothing

Why doesn't anyone think of their own brothers?

How many things did my older brother keep from the family in the county town?

They didn't give you any trouble, did they?

They want me to go back to being a cow.

I also want a bamboo shoot recipe.

You're really asking for trouble.

How could I possibly compromise?

Haha, I knew you wouldn't suffer a loss.

I'm envious of how much money you guys make.

Why didn't you do this earlier?

They will not give up.

My uncle wants to take the imperial examination.

The most in need of money

The next step will definitely be to rely on grandparents for retirement.

Why not be filial and oppress you?

With this in

No matter how much they talk, it's useless.

We need to build a house.

Land also needs to be bought

Once we move into our own yard

Let's see what else they can use to control me.

The old house has its eye on our business.

Stay here again

Sooner or later, it will cause trouble for Shunzi.

What are you afraid of? They dare to come.

I chased it away with a big broom.

Uncle Liu can blast it once

We can't bombard it every day.

Dad, we should buy land.

After buying the land

The amount of silver in my hand has decreased.

Bamboo shoots aren't available all year round.

Silver is just a pile of silver if you leave it lying around.

Land and houses are what truly give you your roots.

No bamboo shoots

What else can we do?

Okay, I'll ask the village chief tomorrow.

The prefectural examination is about to begin.

We don't have enough money for travel and accommodation.

What are you planning to do?

High prices this year

Three to five ounces is simply not enough.

My father's house was robbed again.

How much can you take out?

Are we not going?

I never had confidence to begin with.

How many more times can I drink at brothels with the money left over from not taking the exam?

It's not that I don't want to go

It's because my family is really struggling.

If you're so useless, go ask your father first.

The old man would rather sell the land than let you give up.

Then let Dad figure something out.

Not paying enough travel expenses

I absolutely refuse to go out and suffer.

Judging from the tone of the third brother today

My older brother is doing quite well in the city.

We go to the fields every day to provide for him

He, however, might be out there indulging in a life of pleasure and debauchery.

I also think it's wrong.

But Dad didn't ask.

The eldest brother didn't say

What can I do?

Dad always said that after my eldest brother became an official, he would help us out.

This saying has been around for many years.

This must be his fourth trip to the prefectural city.

One

If I fail the exam again

We have to wait three more years

Three years and three years

How many three-year periods do we have?

If it doesn't work this time...

We also split up.

I'm not paying anymore.

The silver was left to his three sons

Which one can't read?

It should have been done a long time ago

After the third brother went out

Life is getting better and better

On the contrary, it is us

Because of the first wife's influence, the family has not accumulated any wealth.

daughter

Living with someone else is never a long-term solution.

We need to have our own yard as soon as possible.

Wait until your father asks about the land tomorrow.

Let's buy the cheaper ones first.

The house can be built slowly, there's no rush.

Mother had land

Only then can we openly and legitimately sun-dry medicine and cook it.

raising chickens and pigs

Over the years, Old Mrs. Sun has taken care of the third branch of the family, even a chicken.

Even a single grain of rice is very stingy

The first wife, however, was always supported with large sums of money.

They used the hard-earned money from the third wife's family over many years to support the eldest wife's family.

It's time to pay some interest.

Now that I'm in charge, I really regret giving away my third son.

He seemed like a different person after he left.

Making money and doing business go smoothly.

What's the use of regret?

All documents have been filed.

He's not coming back.

The third brother wasn't so cunning before.

It must be because Yu Yatou became stronger after falling into the water.

These pigs and chickens

Every single one of them was earned through the hard work of my parents.

The third wife couldn't get a single bite of meat.

All of it was left to Zhao Dawen to pay.

Since they're making us leave with nothing...

These lunch boxes were wages earned over many years.

The original owner was starving every day.

Little Pear Blossom began studying medicine at the age of 4.

My parents never rested all year round.

These things originally belonged to us.

It's not time to completely turn against each other yet.

ah

ah

What are you yelling about so early in the morning?

Wake up Da Wen

Watch out or I'll skin you alive.

Mom had an accident, and the vegetables were gone.

The chickens and pigs are gone too.

Where's my chicken?

Where's my pig?

My house was burgled

My chicken, my pig

I can't bear to eat it.

Reluctant to drink

It was all stolen by that damned bastard.

The eldest and second eldest son both got up.

Quickly check what else is missing.

Go outside and tell them to keep their voices down.

I still need to study later.

ah

The second son's wife started cooking.

Da Wen can't go hungry

The second brother and I went to find the village chief.

father

The kitchen is empty.

Is this thief trying to move our house?

Ahhh

The reason I returned was to ask my family for money for the scientific expedition.

Now, depending on the situation...

I'm afraid they can't even make breakfast.

The gate was not pried open.

The dog didn't bark.

It must have been done by someone who knows our family well.

So many things

Not even one car could make it all

Why didn't anyone hear it last night?

Recently, we have become enemies

Only the third son and Liu Shunzi

It was them.

That little beast hates that we split up.

Liu Shunzi helps him every day

It must have been stolen by both families in collusion.

The bamboo shoot business requires pork and grain.

They do have a motive.

The village chief must stand up for us!

My house was broken into last night.

Everything was emptied overnight.

Not only are the chickens and pigs I was raising gone, but...

Kitchen utensils and food

Tools in the warehouse

Even the firewood in the yard is gone.

Not a trace left

Pigs and chickens can be driven away

Pots and grain can be transported by cart

Why even take away the firewood?

This is not an ordinary way of seeking wealth.

It was deliberate retaliation.

The Liu family must be searched.

No evidence

You can't just search other people's homes.

Liu Shunzi's parents died early

No manners

Handprints are inherently unclean

Although Liu Shunzi was poor

Yet he never had a reputation for theft.

Aunt Zhao shouldn't speak carelessly.

Slandering someone's reputation comes with consequences.

A quick search will tell you.

If his family doesn't have

I personally apologize.

What is this for?

They've come to harvest bamboo shoots again.

Stop pretending to be cute! My family's chickens, pigs, and feed...

Did you steal the iron pot?

Something was stolen from your house.

Why do you say it was taken by my family?

You took in the third son's family

Make enemies of us

Who else could it be but you?

Let him say he won't make things clear today.

My whole family will have to bear the stigma of being thieves from now on.

Your parents died early

Bastard child who has no one to teach him

What's so strange about stealing?

It seems we didn't collect enough last night.

No serious injuries

He still has the power to bully people.

My parents died early.

But I can confidently say

I've never done anything wrong in my life.

Unlike some people

Have parents

He was just used as a mule.

It would be better to have no freedom at all.

Third brother, are you hoping for my mother and me to die?

What is Dad saying?

Shunzi said he himself

You insist on putting it on.

Uncle Zhao, you insist on searching

Does the Liu family agree?

You can search

But if it weren't for the Zhao family's things...

The Zhao family must do this in front of everyone.

I apologize to you.

Give me back my innocence

You hid it a long time ago.

If they can't find it, they won't accept it.

From now on, who would dare to call me a thief?

I caused such a ruckus that his family was in complete chaos.

Reputation is a person's life.

I am not someone to be bullied.

If I were wronged like that...

I'll do my best too

Searching for homes is possible

But if the search fails, an apology is required.

Uncle Zhao, what do you say?

OK

If his family doesn't have

I apologize.

old

Shut up!

Get out of here

Five villagers were selected to testify.

Following behind Uncle Zhao

To avoid false accusation

I'm sorry, sister-in-law.

If it weren't for you taking us in

The old house won't make things difficult for your family.

Don't be afraid, just keep your eyes peeled and see how they apologize.

There are 6 chickens in Liu's chicken coop.

The neighbors on both sides can attest that it has been raised for many years.

It belongs to the Liu family.

The color and size of these chicken eggs

The neighbors have all seen it.

The chickens from the Zhao family are different.

This number also doesn't match the Zhao family's losses.

Storage room, under the bed?

You have to check the cellar too.

Just browsing today without checking clearly

Don't let anyone leave.

They must have hidden in the mountains beforehand.

You discovered something was missing before dawn.

The Liu family members are all here processing bamboo shoots.

There's no time to move to the mountains.

The Liu family is innocent.

Uncle Zhao

Now it's time to fulfill the promise.

Today I made a mistake in my judgment.

I've wronged you.

And a reputation for stealing.

The Liu family did not steal anything from my house.

From now on, no one is allowed to spread rumors.

Even if Dad endures breakfast

What to do for lunch and dinner?

What do we do now that the pot is gone?

Give the silver to the second son

Go to town to buy grain and cooking pots

I have no money.

If you're hungry, just eat me.

After you've had your fill of howling, get up and take the money.

ah

I heard that the old house can only

Buy half-brown rice and a pot

They used to never give us enough to eat.

Now it's time to experience the taste of hunger.

This is unlike a typical thief's act.

I think it's because my older brother offended someone outside.

As soon as he came back

My house was burgled

They've all split up.

Let whoever steals it, steal it.

Why do you care what they do?

That's right. I'll ask the village chief about buying the land this afternoon.

Take care of your own family first.

No money at home

Whom can I ask for my travel expenses to go to the prefectural city for the exam?

Could the big tree have come because the old house was robbed?

This thief is not easy to find.

What excuse can I use to refuse?

Village chief, I want to ask you something.

Does the wasteland at the foot of the mountain at the end of the village have an owner?

There is no more remote side

The soil is thin

Not much grain can be grown

How much per mu

Based on wasteland

One tael of silver

I want 10 mu

Why did you buy so much wasteland?

It's far from the river and troublesome to maintain.

The leftover material from building the house was used to fence off vegetable and fruit trees.

The family lived a quiet life

Could you please take me to see this piece of land?

wasteland nestled at the foot of the mountain

It is far from the houses in the village.

It was very quiet all around.

There are also better-located homesteads in the village.

No need to buy here

What I value is the difference.

Living in the village

It's so annoying that everyone knows when someone cooks meat.

Uncle Zhao loves a lively atmosphere.

Nobody would believe that.

It was clearly Zhao Xiaoyu's idea again.

I want the whole thing.

Really decided

I'll go to the county government office to get the contract in a few days.

It seems the bamboo shoot business is truly...

The landlord was indeed from the third branch of the family.

My daughter has bought it.

10 mu of land for 10 taels of silver

Dad is amazing

The village chief agreed to lend us the old village committee house for temporary accommodation.

Then we'll move tomorrow.

The old house is close to our land.

It will be easier to build houses in the future.

Wasteland is still land

No one can kick us out anymore.

Our Lihua will also have a big courtyard to live in from now on.

Hahaha

Dad, I'm going back to the county town tomorrow.

Exam approaching

We must seize the time to study.

Go ahead and let Ginlang take care of it for you.

But now the house is already

There's nothing left to pack.

But the cost of going to the prefectural city

The old house was emptied out.

The family's remaining money was barely enough to cover their food expenses.

Why

If Father is really in a difficult position

Or maybe I shouldn't take the exam this time.

Even if the sky falls, it won't work.

You must go too.

The house is like this.

Where would he find the money to take the exam?

Take out your jewelry.

That's the only memento left by my family.

A bracelet

A pair of earrings wouldn't even sell for two ounces.

Why

Sell ​​as many as you can.

Take another one or two taels of your private savings.

Collect three or two for Da Wen

The rest can be figured out by Wang's maternal family.

Decades

This is the first time you've tried to take my dowry.

Wait for the big article to be published

No amount of jewelry could buy back what Shangguan had.

Hurry up and pack.

After you've finished packing, go find Da Wen.

This is your mother's dowry.

The rest was to be borrowed by Wang from her parents' home.

Our Zhao family remembers their kindness.

This is the root of the Zhao family.

Can I really take it?

Take it, keep it as a souvenir

Mother, don't worry

I, Zhao Dawen, will never disgrace the Zhao family.

Light rain

Go and invite the village chief's family and Shunzi's family to dinner.

Okay

How many days does it take for the village chief to build his house?

If building an adobe house

Relatives came to help

It can be completed in ten to twenty days

I don't build mud-brick houses

I want to build a brick and tile house.

Build a few rooms

The 3 mu of land was enclosed by a 6-foot-high brick wall.

The main hall inside

Left and right wing rooms

Kitchen storage

Add a few more client photos

There should also be connecting corridors between all the houses.

Do you know how much money it will cost?

Oh

I want to cover it up all at once.

So that we don't have to tear it down and rebuild it later.

Is Zhao Laosan getting cocky just because he has a little money?

Vegetable gardens and fruit trees should also be left in the yard.

Places where chickens and pigs are raised

The wall should be higher

So that outsiders can see everything

How much silver do you actually have?

Whether it's enough or not, I'll have to ask the master tomorrow.

After you hear the real price

She will definitely wake up.

Brick and tile houses are not cheap

The scale you mentioned

The village bricklayers simply couldn't do it.

Does no one in the village know how to build a firewall?

Firewood in winter

The whole house is warm

You and your daughter are thinking too far ahead.

You have to go to the county town to find a professional to build the firewalls and connecting corridors.

Enclosing 10 mu of land is even more unrealistic.

The bricks alone cost a lot of money.

First, build a mud wall around the courtyard.

Two or three brick houses would be enough to live in.

Life has to be lived slowly.

Everyone's worried we don't have enough money.

I'll have Dad ask about the price tomorrow.

We were just discussing it.

It wasn't said that it would definitely be completed in one go.

After you and your daughter found out the price

They will naturally give up.

Black foot wipes

Don't mix up white face creams.

You're so particular

In the past, one piece of cloth was used by the whole family.

I didn't see anyone lose a piece of flesh.

There were no conditions before

It's cleaner now.

Of course, we need to be particular.

We have over 200 taels.

If we really do as my daughter says, then...

Most of it will probably be spent.

That was the money Xiaoyu earned.

Use it all to build houses

What will happen to her dowry in the future?

No good dowry

What to do if you are mistreated after marrying into your husband's family?

It's also because all I thought about was building a big house.

Make those people at the old house regret it.

He had completely forgotten that his daughter would eventually get married.

Mother, you want to marry me off now?

Mother can't bear to part with you

We just need to prepare early.

In such a short time

I can earn more than 200 taels

The next four years

Am I supposed to just sit still?

Earning the first 200 taels

You can earn a second and a third

Building the house first

Dowry can be earned later

Once you have a big house

Having the confidence to hire a son-in-law who lives with his wife's family

become

Let's build a nice house

The whole family lives in a good house

Finally, I don't have to squeeze onto the same kang (heated brick bed) with my parents and sister anymore.

No more being forced to hear what's going on next door.

Tomorrow I'll go to the county town to ask the driver for prices.

I'll go up the mountain to find some more medicinal herbs.

Earning a little more money is always a good thing.

No one is allowed to enter the deep mountains.

I know the mountain like the back of my hand.

As expected of my daughter

Talk to me the same way

Don't go to the deep mountains

Or I can go with you later.

I know the mountain like the back of my hand.

You can walk without getting lost even with your eyes closed.

As expected of my own daughter

They all brag just like me, hahaha

I won't be back at noon

Give me two pancakes

Make sure to get down the mountain before dark.

Come back soon

Your mom and the others don't cook as well as you.

What happened to the father-daughter bond?

It turns out they just needed a cook.

Hahaha

ah

Wild morel mushrooms

Chicken soup is just right

I almost lost my life.

Are you alright?

In the original owner's memories

This is Xiao Lei, a hunter who lives alone at the end of the village.

Xiao Lei was deeply grateful for saving his life.

He actually knew my name.

There are many snakes in the mountains

Walking and tapping the grass with a stick

Some venomous snake bites are fatal.

Uh-huh

I took the taxi and I'm taking it with me.

I won't take what's yours.

In his memory, he lost his mother at a young age.

My grandfather died in the jaws of a wolf.

Living alone for many years

It's quite pitiful.

Roast one to fill your stomach

I'll prepare another one to take home and stew with mushrooms this afternoon.

After eating, cut up the pork in the space.

Later, it can be disguised as being bought in the county town.

Why so late?

Don't go up the mountain alone in the future, it's too dangerous.

Mother, I wasn't in any danger.

We didn't find many medicinal herbs all day.

I only picked some mushrooms

Oh, and I also hit a pheasant with a stone.

You can still catch chickens

Of course, we'll have pheasant stew with mushrooms tonight!

Why

The raindrops from the house hit a pheasant.

Pheasant feathers

Hit by a stone

I passed by the mountain spring

Boil water in an earthenware pot.

I cleaned up the chicken while I was at it.

My daughter is so capable!

Let it rest for a while before stewing the chicken.

Let your mother cook the rice.

The child was tired after climbing the mountain all day.

I'll cook for you when I get back.

Why don't you do it?

I was wrong, I'll go stew it.

father

How are the preparations for building the house going?

The shopkeeper introduced the master craftsman.

The master craftsman said that since we need firewalls and a large courtyard...

Why not build a two-courtyard house?

The front yard will later house guests and servants.

We'll live in the backyard ourselves.

We are just peasants

Why would I need servants?

Entering the courtyard is enough.

As long as it can shelter from the wind and rain, that's fine.

Don't spend all your money.

How much does it cost for a second hospital admission?

Bluestone Paved Courtyard

The house is paved with blue bricks

Make another firewall approximately

The construction period for Project 230 is three to four months.

Just build this.

Money can be earned back.

But the house is meant to be lived in for decades.

All rough work is paid.

I don't owe any favors to my clansmen.

Okay, let's do as Xiaoyu says.

All the chicken was left for the children.

Your dad and I will have enough soup.

Everyone has to eat

The old-fashioned way of serving food is no longer the way it was in the old houses.

I've even started thinking about becoming an old man in the future.

I'm living the life of luxury, being pampered by my daughter, haha.

Dad built such a nice house

Master will definitely come when he finds out.

What do you really think?

I used to want to build a big house

I really want to show this to your grandfather.

It proves that his disdain for the third wife was a misjudgment.

But I've figured it out.

The money was earned by you.

I shouldn't use your skills to save face.

Separating from the family means dividing the household.

From now on, I will fulfill my filial duties according to the written agreement.

Not a single penny more

As for your uncle

He's not my son.

Does he take the exam?

Should I become an official?

Does it have anything to do with me?

Hehe, waiting to move into the new house

Dad makes money with you

Take your mother to see a doctor again.

Try to have a big, healthy baby boy

If it still doesn't work?

You want to take small

Am I sick?

If it doesn't exist, then it doesn't exist.

If all else fails

You should hire a son-in-law who will live with you.

As long as the person is good

If I find it pleasing to the eye...

Want to earn wages

Everyone should register tomorrow.

Zhao Dashu's family is going to build a big house.

Bamboo shoots only have a few days left.

You can entrust Uncle Liu with the delivery.

You focus on finding a master

The sooner construction starts, the sooner we can move in.

There are about ten drivers in the county town.

We have to provide meals.

Rough laborers don't get meals

22 coins a day

Is 30 enough?

enough

Wages cannot be saved

Only those who are treated fairly will work diligently.

Who will cook for the chefs in the county town?

Mother and Aunt Liu together

Harvesting bamboo shoots will be moved to one hour after meals.

Uncle Liu can also come to the construction site to help during the day.

Xiaoyu's mother was really worried.

I want to go up the mountain with you.

Please have Aunt Liu take care of the pear blossoms.

That won't do; the Liu family needs to process the bamboo shoots.

And also has three children of his own

We can no longer leave the pear blossoms to those left behind.

Mother stayed home to make clothes and cloth shoes for us.

My shoes have thicker soles.

Wearing shoes uphill

Buy clothes, hats and shoes first

Disguise

Avoid villagers you might encounter

Then buy at the pharmacy

Snake repellent powder, hemostatic medicine, and bruise medicine

That's how it's done.

It's okay, it's okay.

Medicine is expensive, but life is more precious.

Encountering poisonous snakes and wild beasts again

You can't rely on luck alone.

Pure white face

Splashed with chicken manure

The bricks fired here have a uniform color.

It's even better than what Old Zhou from the Zhao family used.

First build the wall

Reconstructing houses

The materials are safe once they arrive at the hospital.

Saves the trouble of hiring someone to guard it.

There were about ten craftsmen in the county town

You have to provide meals.

Find 30 rough workers

Work will begin in three days.

No problem, since the workers are away from home to work...

We must not go hungry.

Your employer is decisive and generous in his work.

Hahaha

If you really want to build a two-courtyard house made of blue bricks

Did the master tell you?

How much money would a house like this cost?

If you say you're going to cover it, then cover it properly.

The family all agreed

The money is enough if you use it sparingly.

It's impossible to earn more than two hundred taels from bamboo shoots.

Uncle Zhao's family has been going to the mountains a lot lately.

What exactly is the intricacies of it all?

30 rough laborers

Do you have someone to choose from?

Keep a few of those I'm usually on good terms with.

You can choose the honest and capable ones from the rest.

22 coins a day, excluding meals

Wages are paid every ten days

Such high wages

You might not be unable to find such work even in the county town.

Mainly because I don't want to treat everyone unfairly.

Construction will begin at Zhao Dashu's house in three days.

30 laborers needed

22 articles per day

It will take 3 months.

22 coins a day

Worked for more than 3 months

Much better than farming

The third son really struck it rich.

I heard they bought 10 mu of land

It's going to be a large house made of blue bricks.

They also hired a craftsman from the county town.

The Zhao family used to say that the third branch of the family was a freeloader.

Nowadays, when people go out...

Instead, it led the whole village to make money.

Who dragged whom down?

Need I say more?

Uncle

What kind of business did you actually do?

So generous

Mainly because my wife is a good cook.

Take good care of our family

I still have some things to take care of at home.

I'm leaving now.

Anyone interested in working here?

Everyone went to the village chief's office to line up and register.

Why is Xiaoyu unhappy?

I hope nothing bad happened when I went into the mountains today.

Nothing's wrong, we just haven't found any valuable medicinal herbs.

Why

I'm also worried about the meals for the chefs in the county town.

We're so busy harvesting bamboo shoots right now that we don't even have time for that!

Let Mom and Aunt Liu take responsibility.

Bamboo shoots are now only produced in quantities of one or two hundred catties per day.

Change to collecting for one hour at night

Uncle Liu can handle it during the day.

I'll go and discuss it with Shunzi.

Then I'll go tell Mother.

Since we cook for the chefs in the county town...

Let me calculate the dozen or so first.

The chef's daily cold dishes

We'll go buy them before construction starts.

We can't just give them coarse grains.

Meat and eggs should be available every few days.

Only physical labor can sustain it

Xiaoyu's words make sense.

Dad is in big trouble

The third son wants to find someone to build a house.

Several mud-brick houses

It's worth your shouting.

Not an earthen house

He bought 10 mu of wasteland from the village committee.

Please hire a driver from the county town.

Find 30 laborers

22 coins a day

To build a large house with two courtyards and blue bricks.

Where did he get the money?

My elder brother was right.

Only two months after the family separated

He couldn't possibly earn that much.

The third brother must have made his fortune long ago.

Deliberately causing trouble to separate the family

He tricked us all.

That ungrateful wretch has money but doesn't bring it back to support Da Wen.

Why build your own house?

I'm going to lie down at his door right now.

The second son went to call him back.

If it truly was a private stash hidden before the family division...

How much did he eat?

How much do you have to spit out for me?

Your third uncle wants you to go back.

Hongmen Banquet

Grandpa will definitely say you hid some money before the family division.

You need to return all the silver.

I knew it

That brat wouldn't go with her father and instead gloated.

I'm cheering you on in my heart.

Remember what we agreed on.

My dad misses me.

Call me back to chat

The old man clearly wanted to skin him alive.

This person, however, could describe it as a case of fatherly love and filial piety.

Father and son are back

You miss me

Can you make me something delicious?

cough cough cough

I heard you're going to build a house.

Yes, Dad, if he's bored...

I also want to lend a hand at the work.

Just go directly to the village chief to register.

Kneel down, do you know you're wrong?

My son is uneducated and not very smart.

I don't understand the subtleties in your words.

Please tell me directly where I went wrong.

Where did your money come from?

In just two months

You can earn more than 200 taels of silver.

You clearly haven't separated from the family.

I secretly hid my private stash of money.

Deceiving family

I used to carry sacks outside.

Working like crazy all day only earns 20 coins

My second brother comes to me every few days to ask for money.

Every time I come home, my mother searches me inside and out.

You told me

How can I hide my secret stash of money?

If we don't explain the source of the money today...

I then called the village chief and clan head to settle the matter.

The Zhao family has nothing to hide.

We will never allow money of dubious origin to tarnish our family's reputation.

If you admit to hiding some money before the family division...

Return the silver to the palace

This is just a family matter.

Hahaha

Do you want to know

I will tell you.

The son is incompetent

After the family split up, they became destitute and impoverished.

He can't even support his wife and daughters

They relied entirely on Shunzi's frequent financial assistance to make ends meet.

But I'm lucky

I have a capable wife who knows how to earn money.

The Song family used to live in the old house.

Using even a little too much oil and salt will get you scolded.

How dare I try new dishes?

Went to Liu's house

They let her do whatever she wants.

She then created several recipes for the food.

Shunzi delivered bamboo shoots to the restaurant

I also gave some to the shopkeeper to try.

Shopkeeper knows his stuff

Paying a high price to buy a prescription

I'm supported by my wife.

A recipe isn't cheap.

Just sell it for a few coins and you'll have it.

How capable is the Song family?

How could I not know?

If you don't believe

Go to the biggest restaurant in the county town and ask Liu Shunzi.

Did you sell my wife's prescription before?

If there is a single lie

You can hit my face as you please.

Speaking of

I really need to thank you.

Thank you for being so heartless as to separate our family.

If you hadn't been so heartless back then, I would have kicked you out.

My life

My wife in this life

To waste one's talents

A life lived in misery and frustration

Regardless of who earned the money

As long as it's you, Zhao Dashu

That's Old Zhao's family's.

Go back immediately.

All the silver

Take all the newly acquired land deeds.

New houses are not allowed to be built.

Not a single inch is allowed to move.

I could hear it even from outside the courtyard.

Zhao Dashu, you ingrate!

How dare you talk back to your father?

Once you make money, you become all grown up.

You don't recognize your parents anymore, huh?

Mother reminds you

We've already split up.

If we separate, you will no longer be my child.

You are my son

You should give me every penny you earn.

The document is written clearly

The eldest brother is mainly responsible for his elder care.

All the money the family has earned over the years has been spent on him.

Don't try to pressure me with paperwork.

No money

I will then go to the yamen and accuse you of filial impiety.

One life

Take it if you want.

No silver

You are a childless person

As long as you don't starve to death, that's enough.

What's the use of silver?

Your mother has a loose tongue.

Don't hold it against her.

There are many things to do about housing.

Let the second son and his wife help you.

Didn't you pay wages?

Third brother, give the silver to me and Dad.

We will definitely choose the best materials.

Never let anyone cheat you

If you want to work, go to the village chief to sign up.

I will buy the materials myself.

I also manage the money myself.

The village chief is ultimately an outsider.

Which family is reliable?

In my heart

It's true that outsiders are more reliable.

Sometimes stabbing someone in the back

It just so happens to be family.

Shopkeeper, could you please tell others that...

Shunzi came to sell the prescription for us.

One

My dad and I separated from the family.

Now look how good my life is.

They're eyeing my family's money again.

Don't worry, I've seen this kind of thing many times.

Everyone has their difficulties.

If someone asks

I'll do as you say.

It's the recipe that Shunzi and his brother sold on your behalf after the family split up.

Thank you very much, shopkeeper.

The mountain produce and recipes you sent me have earned me quite a bit of money.

This is nothing.

please

Yesterday, Zhao Dayong called you back to the old house.

What exactly happened?

They still wanted the money.

Let me first tell you about my secrets.

Let me hand over the money.

They wanted to help me buy materials even though the deal hadn't been finalized.

Your father and second brother are both scoundrels.

The county town was missed.

He's even worse.

Hahaha

For several days in a row, nothing of value was found.

I decided to risk going deep into the mountains once.

He Shou Wu, and it's a whole patch.

The old house wanted to steal money.

Then I'll make another fortune.

They couldn't even touch the edge.

We've struck it rich! We've really struck it rich!

Silver is only truly yours when it's in your pocket.

If they stay in the mountains, they will eventually be discovered by others or wild animals.

I don't want to cry in front of an empty pit anymore.

One

Come again tomorrow morning

You guys stay put

Nobody should run away.

Let's make dumplings tonight.

The house construction will require the help of Uncle Village Chief and Uncle Liu.

Eat better

I chopped the meat and kneaded the dough.

You prepare the filling.

You can't eat your family's meals every day.

You'll become picky about food.

After they moved out of my house

This is what I want most.

I went to get a second bowl.

Since you love to eat

Take some back with you.

Let my sister-in-law and her children try it too.

What's this clod of earth called that's even coarser than Rehmannia glutinosa?

I'll ask about the price of Polygonum multiflorum at the pharmacy tomorrow.

Sell ​​if the price is right

Don't take it all out at once

First, see how much the pharmacy will give.

To avoid being pressured to lower the price

Construction on the house will begin the day after tomorrow.

Don't go up the mountain tomorrow.

Go on the last day

Don't dig up all the remaining medicinal herbs

I can't sleep well.

Then you must pay attention to safety.

Walking on mountain roads is tiring, so eat more.

Don't go deeper

Last night I dreamt that a he shou wu (Polygonum multiflorum) grew legs and ran away.

I chased him all night but couldn't catch him.

Today, I'll stuff everything into the space.

Let's see where you can run now.

Which damned wild boar stole my silver?

You guys should thank me for saving two for me, right?

Let me run into you again next time

I'll make you into braised pork!

Could it be a poisonous snake or a wild boar?

He lost his life for a few medicinal herbs.

That's the real loss.

He Shou Wu is gone

Fortunately, we found a few more Panax notoginseng plants.

Judging from the year, it's only three or four years old.

Not for sale yet

Let's talk about the potential income after fully excavating it.

Three Polygonum multiflorum plants sold for 15 taels yesterday.

Just three clods of earth

A full 15 taels

My He Shou Wu (Polygonum multiflorum)

Damn wild boar!

Don't go up the mountain alone in the future.

Every time you go out

Your mother and I were both very worried.

If you have enough to live on, don't risk your life for money.

You can keep it to build a house.

Once the new house is built

Let's do other business

I won't go deep into the mountains anymore.

The drivers and special cars from the county town will arrive tomorrow.

Our house is finally going to start construction.

Master, I'm here.

The owner's bricks arrived shortly afterward.

Wages are paid every ten days

Those who slack off or cheat can be replaced at any time.

knew

According to custom, the head of the household should dig the first shovel of soil.

good

We've been waiting since dawn until almost noon.

Why hasn't anyone asked me to preside over the start of construction yet?

Let's go take a look.

The third brother would never give up the first field to his father.

Because that would be tantamount to acknowledging the separation of the family.

The father still made the final decision among the three parties.

Big tree, you now have a way to make money.

Bring your brothers along too!

Hehe, Master called me.

I'll go talk business first.

Haha, the old man is only just arriving.

The first game is over.

He was clearly not invited.

They've all split up.

The third son was the head of the family himself.

Third son

Dad, what brings you here?

Come see how big a place you bought

Can four people fit in?

Wasteland is cheap

We'll grow vegetables and raise chickens in the yard in the future.

Raise a few more vicious dogs

Who dares to circumvent the Great Firewall?

First, it was scratched by the broken porcelain shards.

Let the dog bite again

This is clearly a warning to me.

The wall can be made of adobe bricks.

Blue bricks are a waste of money

You are the head of the household.

We can't listen to Song's opinions in everything.

I'm just a kept man.

My wife wants to stay somewhere safe.

Of course I agree.

Besides, I've already separated from the family.

You only need to take care of your eldest and second eldest brothers.

Your older brother's child is smart.

In the future, I will pass the imperial examination and obtain official rank.

It can also take care of you.

Just listen to your brother's boasting.

Truly talented

How come you're not even a child prodigy at your age?

At his age

My older brother is almost a scholar!

Yes, what the third brother said makes sense.

Is this eldest grandson truly literate?

Could it be that all these years of teaching have produced...

All the monks' efforts went to waste.

I want to discuss something with you.

Construction on the new house started today.

Please don't mention anything that upsets me.

Borrowing money to stop construction and shrink the house

Not discussing anything

Who wants to do the work?

They then registered according to the village head's rules.

Who wants to get something for nothing?

No way!

Grandfather and second uncle both came.

Will they come for lunch?

Since the person has already arrived

Prepare two extra portions

Eat it again tonight if you can't finish it

If you stay today, sir

Dad probably won't be able to digest this meal.

Go call your dad for dinner.

People have been standing here all morning.

The county town workers and the village chief

Let's go to the old house for dinner.

Don't forget your father

Dad, it's noon.

Come to my house for dinner!

If there is not enough food

I can only give my share to the old man.

The second brother figured out a way himself.

The old house, which was originally on the verge of collapse, was

The three rooms were kept clean and tidy.

It already looks like a home.

Father and Second Brother

Wash your hands first, the food will be served right away.

Today I'll have to try my younger brother and sister-in-law's cooking.

Living together for more than ten years

Little did anyone know she made a fortune from cooking recipes.

In the past, you'd get scolded if you added even a single drop of oil.

Even the best chef can only boil cabbage.

Second Uncle knows perfectly well.

Even the imperial chef couldn't do anything about the old house, so he quickly sat down.

All you can eat today is steamed corn bread.

Dad, eat more

Today is a joyous day for starting work.

Don't just focus on the money

Let's fill our stomachs completely first.

The more I eat, the more I feel that the food at my old house tastes like pig slop.

This old Mrs. Sun was stingy her whole life.

A daughter-in-law who knows how to make money was buried.

I've built houses for many people.

This meal at your house was the most satisfying one.

Hahaha

Thank you for your hard work, masters.

Take a nap on the mat after dinner.

Third son

When you have time, take Mrs. Song back to the old house for a visit.

I know, Dad is leaving now, take care.

What do you think of today's meal?

The Song family did indeed have skills.

It can also conceal things

If she had said she would make money earlier

Her family wouldn't stop her from trying.

She only revealed her true colors after the family division.

The third brother must have known all along.

They were always wary of us.

They never treated the old house like family.

How to deal with the third wife now?

The third child is now completely unresponsive.

You can't be close to them, you can't be too close to them.

I have no choice.

Then call the eldest brother back.

Three cobblers are as good as one Zhuge Liang.

I don't believe the whole family can't handle him.

But my elder brother still hasn't figured out the restaurant's recipe.

That means he is studying hard for the exam.

Should we go back inside?

This place is comfortable.

Get me a blanket.

At most, a few dilapidated houses can be built in a three-room house.

The old man made a fuss over nothing.

Lack of knowledge

As for the restaurant recipe

I asked it casually once

If the shopkeeper doesn't answer, I'll just become lazy.

Here

What was the result?

making a fuss every day

Song does indeed know how to cook.

If you weren't so controlling with everything, even the smallest things...

She had already started earning money for the family.

You didn't see it

Their family provides jobs to workers.

The food was all so delicious

It is evident that Song's craftsmanship was superior.

The food at the old house is a hundred times better.

I have always believed that I am smarter and more capable than Mr. Song.

Now it seems she may have been hiding her true abilities all along.

So all these years

He kept performing in front of us

He and his third brother were afraid of being tied down by their families and having to work.

That's why their abilities were revealed after the family split up.

What good is good cooking?

I have three sons

The third wife has more money

Ultimately, they will be divided up by others because they have no children.

The laborers in our village are surprisingly quick and efficient.

Your dad has to sleep at the construction site guarding the bricks these next few nights.

Shunzi accompanied them.

Prepare more cakes when you get back.

Hey, six or seven of my buddies are coming to keep me company tonight.

Two cakes per person

Even guarding a brick requires forming a group

Are you afraid that no one will listen to your boasting at night?

There's no way around it, my dad is popular.

My brothers insisted on coming to keep me company.

We'll figure something out together after the eldest brother gets back.

The third son's money shouldn't be given to outsiders.

Don't be shy.

Two cakes per person

Take turns sleeping when you're tired

Don't let any thieves sneak in.

Your wall is so high!

Who would dare to steal this?

It's not about guarding against thieves.

They are people who can't stand to see me living a good life.

Hahaha

Going into the mountains again

Not going deep

Go to the county town to buy meat

Zhao Family's Fat Pig in the Space

It's long overdue to allocate some funds to improve our diet.

But I need to create the illusion of a harvest in the mountains first.

You spent last night in the mountains

The pursuit of prey delayed

The mountains have been unsettled lately.

Don't go deeper.

I know the life-saving grace from last time

I haven't properly thanked you yet.

Brother, I want to ask you about someone.

Do you know where Zhao Dawen lives?

Oh, you mean Zhao Dawen, the guy from the countryside?

Everyone in this area knows him.

You walk forward

Turn right at the third alley.

Finally, you'll see the most luxurious house.

Has this person gotten this mixed up?

Okay, let's go take a look first.

Isn't your older brother renting a small courtyard house?

Who to look for

I'm looking for Zhao Dawen.

I am his younger brother

ah

Why is my second brother here?

Come in

What happened at home again?

Dad asked me to take you back to the village.

There is something urgent

Just send a message.

Why bother coming here in person?

What happened to my parents?

Is he too sick to get out of bed?

You'll know when you get back.

If parents are seriously ill

Then I can fulfill my filial duties at your bedside.

It was only natural that he wouldn't go to the prefectural city to take the exam.

If one person truly dies

Even more able to observe three years of mourning

The oxcart in the village probably hasn't left yet.

Take a car back

I left home before dawn.

We didn't eat or drink anything the whole way.

The eldest brother, however, was unwilling to walk even a few miles.

The money handed over over the years

I'm afraid they've all been fed to ungrateful wretches.

What exactly happened to my second brother's family?

Go back and ask your father yourself.

Why are you making that face?

My older brother teaches and studies.

Isn't it all for the sake of helping you in the future?

I heard this sentence in the past

I would feel that all the hard work was worth it.

Now, having seen the cold faces of the servants and Madam Wang in the mansion...

It just feels ironic.

Da Wen, you're finally back!

Dad sent you a message

Why haven't you replied?

What exactly happened?

You have to make me come back at this time.

Zhao Dashu built a big house.

They won't give us money

I'm asking you to come back and come up with ideas.

For the sake of the third son

It's worth calling me back from the county town.

I'm going to the prefectural city right away.

What to do if it delays Uncle Wen?

It was Dad who was anxious.

You should rest first.

I'll accompany Dad to see the third son tomorrow.

What happened in the county town?

My older brother moved.

The new house is very spacious.

There were also servants to serve them.

I'll go.

The older sister-in-law didn't even give him a bowl of water.

My older brother even complained that I was bothering him.

The house is rented, right?

I asked people nearby.

Like his own

My older brother also gets paid for teaching.

His two sons are still in school.

Family members can study at a lower cost

But these years

He never said he could bring it.

How many words does our child recognize?

My three sons run around the village all day long.

All the family's money was spent on the eldest son's family.

Things have gotten better and better since the third son of this family left.

My older brother lives like a lord even in the city.

While we're still foraging for food in the fields

We need to plan for ourselves from now on.

Dad won't let us save money.

Every penny earned must be handed over to the public.

Then secretly save

No one's good is better than your own.

Our three sons

Is there not a single person who can read?

The eldest brother can spend the whole family's money

Why can't our children even get into school?

If Mom finds out, she'll tear us apart.

So you have to keep your mouth shut.

And we must not offend the three families again.

He can afford to build a mansion now.

I'll definitely be able to get back up in the future.

We might need his help someday.

Three sisters-in-law

My sister-in-law is enjoying a comfortable life in the city.

My third brother's wife will be moving into a big house soon.

I was the only one who served the whole family like a grandson.

If you can endure it, you can provide for your own son.

It's worth enduring some hardship today.

Dad, this is really from the third son's family.

Two entrances

Fire walls and connecting corridors also need to be built.

It cost more than 200 taels.

A hoodlum whom I've looked down on since childhood

They actually managed to build a mansion that I don't even own.

mouth wide open

The one who laughed the silliest.

That is your third brother

Third son

Oh, Scholar Zhao

I'm about to go to the prefectural city for the exam.

You still have time to come and visit my dilapidated house.

A house is an external possession.

No matter how well it's built, it can't bring glory to one's ancestors.

If you have spare money

You should support what is truly important in your family first.

What's important?

The eldest brother remarried

Don't talk nonsense

Was it easy for my elder brother to study for so many years for the sake of the Zhao family?

Where is it not easy?

I haven't worked in the fields for decades

Wear cotton and eat refined grains

His wife and children didn't have to do farm work.

Living in a nice house in the county town

Drinking at a restaurant

Playing in the brothel

There were also servants to serve the father.

You asked him where exactly he suffered?

Third brother, don't listen to outsiders' nonsense.

I delivered goods into the city.

My eyes aren't blind.

I have indeed seen your residence.

Your older brother studies every day

I know best how much hardship I've endured.

Not everyone can study.

You only see his respectable side.

I didn't see how hard he worked.

Did you let my second brother and I try it?

I also wanted to learn to read when I was a child.

He got beaten for touching his older brother's book.

You immediately said I'm not cut out for studying.

The second brother has three sons

Who has ever been to school these days?

You don't know who has talent.

They just don't want to spend money on us.

Hmph, don't you know your own limitations?

My money didn't grow on trees.

How could I let you mess around like that?

The eldest brother was born with a noble destiny.

We are all peasants.

Then let your precious destiny earn its own travel expenses.

Don't come looking for me, you piece of trash.

Your older brother is going to the prefectural city soon.

This is the most critical time for the Zhao family.

You now have the ability

We should lend a hand.

Dad, you've gone to such great lengths.

How much exactly?

Ten taels

ah

Do you think my money is like tree leaves from the mountain?

One sweep, one basket

As long as your older brother is in high school

I'll repay you tenfold or a hundredfold in the future.

He sold my daughter for his own future.

Today they want me to stop working and get paid again, Dad.

Your scheme has been heard throughout the whole village.

Ten taels is not much

My house was burgled a while ago.

I really can't afford the travel expenses

You should build two fewer rooms in this house.

The silver was then obtained.

I wish my brother a safe journey.

High-ranking scholar

Get an official position as soon as possible

It was worth all the years of hard work and cultivation from my parents.

Stop pretending to be confused, it's too much money.

No

You have over 200 taels to build a house.

Unable to produce 10 taels

The money was used to pay for all the materials and labor.

Besides, what does my elder brother's imperial examination have to do with me?

A dignified scholar

Can teach and can write

They still live in nice houses in the county town.

How could you not even earn 10 taels?

ah

Houses don't have to be built

Your older brother's exam can't be delayed.

Why should this house be where my wife and daughter will live in the future?

My older brother isn't my son.

You should support him

Sell ​​your land or house, it's up to you.

Go ahead and beat me to death today.

The village chief, clan head, and dozens of workers can all testify.

Let's see if the authorities sentence you to death.

Since Father, my third brother is in trouble

Forget it, I'm the eldest brother.

I cannot force my younger brother to sell his house for my own sake in order to pass the imperial examination.

My elder brother is surprisingly cooperative today.

It's obvious they're afraid the secret of the mansion in the county town will be revealed.

The eldest brother is still the most considerate.

Please take care, I won't see you off.

We shouldn't give up on Da Wen.

Maybe we should linger a little longer.

He paid.

father

The third brother already knew about the house.

If you keep pushing...

He said it in public.

My second brother will definitely cause trouble.

We can find another way to get 10 taels of silver.

The secrets of the house must not be revealed.

The second child knows you're living well.

But you don't know yet that the house belongs to you.

No one is allowed to mention it again after we get back.

The son understood

As for the third son

He has completely lost touch with his family.

We can no longer use the old methods to manipulate them.

Previously, all that was needed was to mention the division of the family.

Zhao Dashu would then lower his head

Now that they've really separated...

The other party, on the contrary, became fearless.

The two left

Did you get the money?

Humph, you're not leaving? You're staying at our house for the New Year!

10 taels of silver

They really dare to open their mouths.

Why didn't my uncle make a fuss today?

He was afraid I would mention his large mansion in the county town.

People with a guilty conscience are the easiest to deal with.

Don't confront your father head-on in the future.

What if they really hit you?

He values ​​his life more than anyone else.

They wouldn't dare beat me to death in front of the whole village.

The bamboo shoot business is almost over.

The desaturation method is too simple

Sooner or later someone will find out.

I'll sell the method to the shopkeeper tomorrow.

Make one last profit

But you can earn quite a bit from bamboo shoots in a year.

Once others discover it, it will be worthless; sell it now for 30 taels.

I'll go first thing tomorrow morning.

The method to remove astringency sells for 30 taels.

If the shopkeeper tries to lower the price

Minimum 25 taels

No less

From now on, we'll sell bamboo shoots ourselves.

We also have to compete with restaurants for business.

The only method is blanching and soaking.

Those who are determined will discover it after a few tries.

While no one knows

Selling it is where the money comes from.

The shopkeeper's recipe for bamboo shoots is 30 taels.

Do you accept it or not?

Although the price of 30 taels is high

But it's indeed popular, so I bought it.

Exam coming soon

I have to go.

The second brother will take you there.

Exams are important

No need to worry about household matters

My older brother came by car and left by car.

But I have to run errands and serve you.

No need to deliver to the house

Walk at the entrance of the county town

The more he dodged and weaved

The more suspicious I became of the house

Hiding an unspeakable secret

Money's been running out fast lately.

Why not go for a walk around the mountain?

I felt panicked.

Didn't you say you wouldn't let me go into the mountains anymore?

I am therefore not considered a person.

Your mother always runs to the foot of the mountain to wait.

So anxious I can't eat

I won't go today.

You went to help the construction site

I'll take a look from the outside myself.

Not going deep

Boss, please come and take a look at how the materials should be allocated.

First, find medicinal herbs in a safe area.

One

The chicken at the old house is finally finished.

From now on, if you want to eat meat, you'll have to raise your own openly and honestly.

This thing holds grudges.

I don't want to find a solution today.

I really have to confess here.

Try to pull the wild boar into space when it gets close.

Space can hold inanimate objects

However, it is impossible to collect live wild boars remotely.

I had no chance to touch it

good

Stone slope in front

Other heavy

I dare not come down

ah

I owe you another life

That area usually doesn't have large wild animals.

It is blind in one eye.

Will you come down the mountain in the future?

It is possible to go back to the village and tell the village chief.

Don't let anyone go to the mountainside recently.

You go back

The sword was still in his eyes.

Injured wild boars are in greater danger

I need to find out where he went.

This silent boy is like a knife hidden in its sheath.

Didn't you say it was only on the outskirts?

Mother was just having an accident today.

Xiao Lei said there are usually no wild boars there.

Your mother and father are carefree.

I will never let you go up the mountain alone again.

You went to the deep mountains.

Xiaoyu also encountered a wild boar today.

I'm halfway up the mountain.

Xiao Lei shot an arrow through the wild boar's eye.

Then they grabbed me and ran down the mountain.

Holding you

If you don't catch me, I can't run fast.

I almost fell several times

Fortunately, he didn't let go.

My daughter's hands

That brat actually dragged me all the way here.

Escaping is the priority

It's no big deal to scratch it.

Don't go around spreading this.

Xiao Lei saved you

Dad will personally thank you

I'm not going to take a gong and shout it from the village.

The head of the household must prepare a generous gift.

If it weren't for Xiao Lei

We may never see Xiaoyu again.

No more going up the mountain

Today was just an accident.

There will be no future

We'll live however we can at home.

Once the house is built

I went to the county town to look for work.

We can no longer exchange your life for money.

The village chief recently reported seeing wild boars on the mountainside.

My daughter, Xiaoyu, almost didn't make it back.

Do not enter the deep mountainside area in the near future.

Chopping wood and digging for vegetables must be done in pairs.

Yu Yatou is really lucky.

First come back from the river

They escaped from the wild boar's jaws again.

Ptooey, ptooey, ptooey, what are you talking about?

The wild boar didn't even touch the hem of her clothes.

I have to carry the meat and grain.

A new Jiannan set went to Xiao Lei's house

Sister, are we really staying here?

You will have your own room from now on.

No more four people squeezing onto one kang (heated brick bed)

In winter, the whole family can sit in a warm house and eat meat.

After a little more tidying up, we can move into the greenhouse.

The wine should be prepared.

How many tables must be set up?

Please take a look, everyone in the village.

Just ask someone who has helped us.

No need to waste money to show off

Zhao Dawen has been teaching at the school for many years.

I get paid every month

The eldest son's two sons also studied at the school.

My three sons now

But he can't even write his own name properly.

Zhao Xiucai's family is doing well.

That house has been inhabited for many years.

There were also old women to serve them.

Shouldn't he be taking the exam in the prefectural city?

He didn't take the exam.

He took his parents' travel expenses

I lied to my family and said I wouldn't be back until after the Mid-Autumn Festival.

He had been hiding in the county town enjoying a life of luxury all along.

Years of support

Daily labor and parental favoritism

Big brother is in high spirits

The prefectural exam is over so quickly.

Second brother, why did you suddenly come to the city?

Exams

I have my own plans.

Arrange for you to take your mother's dowry.

The family borrowed money

They said they were going to the prefectural city to take the exam.

As a result, he hid in the county town drinking tea.

You think we're fools?

Second brother, you've misunderstood.

Your older brother caught a cold recently.

Missed departure time

I didn't tell them because I was afraid my parents would worry.

Sick people cannot travel

It's possible to go to a teahouse.

This time, it was indeed my elder brother's oversight.

You help me keep this a secret.

Wait for the next exam

I will definitely participate.

More than ten years

The whole family cut back on food and clothing

The third son's family almost sold their daughter.

Just for you

If you don't want to go, then don't go.

They came back to cheat people out of their travel expenses.

My parents are getting old

How could you bear to hurt them?

Haha, aren't you afraid of getting hurt if you lie to them?

To be honest would be unfilial.

What exactly do you want?

Go back to the village and explain it face to face.

If you don't leave, I'll go back now and bring my parents to the city.

Parents cannot live in the house

I'll go back with you.

Weren't you going to the prefectural city to take the exam?

The scholar's dream ends here.

From now on, I will only use the money I earn to support my own children.

Da Wen came back to say goodbye before leaving, right?

father

My elder brother didn't go to the prefectural city at all.

He fooled us all.

What the second brother said is true.

My son caught a cold a while ago.

Missed departure time

Afraid of worrying her parents

Only temporarily concealed

How can you take an exam when you're sick?

Second brother, don't you care about your eldest brother's health?

It's like interrogating a criminal.

Your conscience has been eaten by dogs.

He was still drinking tea at the teahouse today.

Where does it look like a patient?

I just went out for some fresh air after I recovered from my illness.

All those years of effort were a joke.

If you miss it, you miss it.

Next time, I'll reconsider.

Family members should not make a big deal out of it.

So as not to be laughed at by outsiders

Next time it will be another three years.

Three years later, then another three years

How long will our whole family have to support them?

Da Wen is the hope of the Zhao family.

If not him, then who?

Do you want to support your peasant sons?

From now on, I will support my son.

My older brother's tuition and alcohol expenses

I won't take a single penny.

Before the family split up, the money you earned was public money.

Why doesn't the older brother hand over the money he earns from teaching?

He lived in a mansion in the county town and hired servants.

Son goes to school

Which one counts as palace

After the third brother went out

Earn money to build a house

My older brother lives in a big house in the city.

Only my husband and I remained in the old house.

White base

Feeding pigs and washing clothes at night

Why should we hand over all the money we earn?

The head of the household is right.

Our three sons should also have the opportunity to study.

Mother hit me today

I'll do the work in the fields myself tomorrow.

Since the third wife separated

The biggest shortage in old houses is labor.

Second son

What exactly do you want?

From now on, the older brother will be responsible for his own expenses.

Li and I earned money by doing odd jobs embroidering purses.

You should also set aside some money for your children.

After the New Year, I will send my three boys to school in the county town.

Everything has been discussed openly today.

Dad wouldn't really agree, would he?

He disagrees

We will not do it.

The old house can't do without us now.

Who exactly bought the house that my older brother owned?

This is the next account.

He taught for 6 years

I get paid every month

But we've never seen a single penny at home.

Tomorrow I will settle the score in front of everyone.

My once most obedient second brother has changed.

This is the account I had the villagers of Shizi calculate.

It was already explained yesterday.

What else do you want to cause trouble for?

What I said yesterday was that you didn't go to the exam.

Today's calculations are for the house and wages.

We'll talk about the house later.

Why say it later

25 mu of land at home

Parents scrimped and saved

The eldest brother, however, was able to buy a house and hire servants in the county town.

We haven't separated.

The house he bought

Shouldn't they also be considered part of the Zhao family palace?

The house was bought with money from my family.

It has nothing to do with the Zhao family.

Wang Jiazhen is very generous.

Buy a house in the county town for your married daughter

But he didn't buy it for his own son.

Since that's the case

We should personally visit and express our gratitude.

My parents are old

I don't like being disturbed by outsiders

I am your in-law

Not an outsider

Second brother, don't push your luck.

Who bought the house?

It has nothing to do with you

How can it be irrelevant?

Before the family split up

Everyone's earnings must be handed over to the public fund.

This rule was set by Dad.

Is my eldest brother an exception?

Put the house aside for now

My older brother teaches at the school.

One tael of silver per month

12 taels a year

I've inquired about it.

It took six years to pay.

Six years is 72 taels of silver.

The eldest brother's clothes, food, and provisions were all provided by the palace.

He didn't get a single penny back from teaching.

Should everything now be included in the household's total accounts?

How much is 72 liang?

Purchase more than 70 mu of yellow land

That's enough to build half a mansion.

Teaching also involves writing.

It's impossible to completely eliminate social obligations and obligations.

How much did you spend? Get the bill.

If there is no account, calculate it as seventy-two taels.

Father, you just watch my second brother force me like this.

If it is said that teaching wages do not belong to the palace

After the second wife's marriage, she would have a reason to keep all income to herself.

If it belongs to the palace

We must admit that the eldest son hid a huge sum of money.

father

Is it our family rule that all income goes to the palace?

yes

That's settled.

The family should now have 72 taels in savings.

When the family splits up, this will be included in the overall account.

Not a penny less

My second brother wasn't simply angry.

Instead, it's a way to clear accounts in advance for a future division of assets.

I can't let him go to my parents' house.

The Ren family raised a county magistrate for the Zhao family.

This great kindness cannot be denied.

Second brother, what exactly do you want?

Isn't this Zhao Dashu's daughter?

Daughter, you're leaving.

How will Mother live?

Why is that brat so stubborn?

It was already explained yesterday.

What else do you want to cause trouble for?

What I said yesterday was that you didn't go to the exam.

Today's expenses include the house and wages.

We'll talk about the house later.

The house was bought with money from my family.

It has nothing to do with the Zhao family.

Wang Jiazhen is very generous.

Buy a house in the county town for your married daughter

But not to his own son

The family should now have 72 taels in savings.

When the family splits up, the final accounts must be settled.

We can't let him go to the Wang family.

They raised a county lord for the Zhao family.

This great kindness cannot be denied.

Sister-in-law

I'm going to the Wang family now.

Thank you very much, in-laws.

Our Zhao family cannot pretend we don't know about this kindness.

My younger brother and the others don't know about this matter with my second brother.

If you come to the door

Isn't this putting my parents in a difficult position?

Don't worry, I won't say this in front of your brother.

A private thank you is sufficient.

Second brother, what exactly are you trying to do?

I don't want to be made a fool of anymore.

It's not mine.

I don't want a single penny.

Not a single penny of mine should be missing.

Starting today

How much work does the eldest brother do?

I'll do as much as I can.

The older brother can stay in the field

He used his teaching salary to hire someone to do his job.

As for his imperial examination

I'm not paying anymore.

My money is for Erzhu and Sanzhu's education.

Second brother, do you want to rebel?

I only want to think about my own child.

My elder brother has been a scholar for over ten years.

Please remember this about us, okay?

His son went to school

Why have you never mentioned teaching your nephew to read a few words?

Your older brother after high school

They will naturally help you.

Two or three pillars don't seem like the material for studying.

Why waste money?

father

My older brother has been taking the exam for over ten years.

I understand in my heart

The eldest son's future is likely to end at the level of a mere scholar (xiucai).

Let's be frank.

Who bought the house?

Everyone knows

If I don't get a share of the house

Nobody can have peace.

The eldest brother's children are in school.

My children are several of them studying.

The older brother doesn't do any work

I won't do it either.

The second child should stop now.

I haven't gone to school

Don't wash your dirty linen in public.

If it cannot be explained clearly today

I then asked the villagers to help me settle the matter.

I don't spread rumors

Just tell the truth

Then I saw another Zhao Dashu.

Is it alright to let my third aunt go to school next year?

One of the older brother's family members also came down.

Have you had enough?

Both are sons

Why is he special?

OK

What will happen to the eldest brother in the future?

Whatever you do

Father, please remember that there are at least 72 taels of silver in the house.

I also have a share of the house in the county town.

If you still don't admit it

My second brother really will cause trouble for the Wang family.

I did buy the house.

140 taels of silver are still owed.

If the second brother wants to be counted...

We can pay off the debt together.

I'll do my part.

My child will go to school in the county town in the future.

They also lived in that house.

The property deed is in my name.

I want to live there and dream about it.

Hahaha

When will we, the head of the household, officially move in?

I went to the foot of the City God Temple to have someone calculate my fortune.

Moving is recommended tomorrow.

Housewarming party the day after tomorrow

Prepare a few tables

Who will be the head chef?

Where can I borrow tables and chairs?

Five tables should be enough.

They borrowed tables and chairs from Shunzi, Huzi, Heizi, and the village chief.

Your mother is the head chef

Ask a few aunties for help

My older brother lives far away in the county town.

Busy with studies

I won't bother him with such a small matter.

My uncle was busy avoiding the exam.

Indeed busy

We're moving to our new house tomorrow.

Housewarming party the day after tomorrow

I'll go help my third brother early the day after tomorrow.

Washing vegetables and cutting meat are both fine.

Humph, fence-sitter

They stick their stickers on people who are getting rich.

Have your mother and second brother's wife go the day after tomorrow.

If you need anything else, just let me know.

I'm not going

Shut up

My mother is in poor health.

How could she possibly be bothered?

We have enough manpower.

The son refused.

That old Mrs. Sun really doesn't know how to handle things.

Did your eldest brother inform your ninth brother?

My older brother's studies are the most important thing.

So they didn't let him spend money on the trip.

The third son clearly had no intention of associating with the eldest son's family anymore.

My family and I will go there early the day after tomorrow.

They are all brothers

You're welcome

Thanks in advance, bro.

My second brother is suddenly so enthusiastic.

He definitely didn't hold in a fart.

I need to remind my wife when I get home.

Don't let Li trick you into revealing information.

My parents, Song Shi, and I have moved out now.

Housewarming party the day after tomorrow

When did you build this house?

Why did they separate?

Life wasn't easy in the old house.

I have hands and feet

Unwilling to let his wife and daughter continue to suffer

How much land was allocated?

Almost left with nothing

But I can make money

He has already built the only blue brick mansion in the whole village.

If you can't make it work, just say so.

I sold my mother-in-law's belly a while ago

There were nearly two ounces left at home.

You can use it first.

Dad, I really have a house and food.

I've gained weight recently.

You can go see it in person the day after tomorrow.

If your boast is exposed, you can scold me all you want.

We need to bring food and vegetables on the day of the housewarming party.

I want to see with my own eyes how my daughter is doing.

Dad, take a look.

Have I gained weight?

You've gained weight, but don't think it's just you who's eating too much.

The wife and children are still starving.

The whole family has gained weight.

This distribution was so right.

Now you can eat whatever you want.

No one pointed fingers and cursed anymore.

I need to get him something to nourish him.

snort

Who says no one cares about me?

My parents-in-law care about me more than my own parents do.

Last night was my first time sleeping in the new house.

The whole family was so excited they barely slept.

The aunties all brought food.

We don't need to buy vegetables anymore.

Third sister-in-law, let me help you wash the vegetables.

Madam Li is a very cunning woman.

Remember to stay away from her

Second sister-in-law sat down to rest.

There are enough people here.

I'll do the physical work first.

I don't believe the third son's family can get by.

This really is the third family.

More magnificent than a landlord's mansion

No fuss today

Want to know ways to make money

First, give them a friendly face.

Father and Mother, you've come!

One

They came when they arrived.

Why did you bring so much stuff?

My son's enthusiasm wasn't directed at me at all.

Dad, what do you think of my brick wall corridor and main house?

For example, many houses in the county town are quite grand.

That ungrateful wretch

Who gave birth to her?

Who will ruin my plans today?

I will not let them off easily when I get back.

From now on, you won't have to get wet when serving food in the rain.

Adding firewood from outside in winter

The whole house is warm

My parents have rheumatoid arthritis.

I came to stay for a while because it's cold.

This son-in-law, who used to be the most unreliable

Not only did it allow my daughter to leave the old house

And built such a family estate

I've already had the idea of ​​moving in.

I wanted to wait for my son to invite me.

As it turned out, Zhao Dashu invited his wife's family instead.

Does he still have any regard for his biological parents?

Shut up and don't cause trouble.

What is this long couch for?

I'm tired but don't want to go to bed.

I'll lie here and rest for a while.

ah

Isn't it cold in winter without sitting on a kang (heated brick bed)?

This is a firewall.

Burning firewood outside

The whole room will get hot

More comfortable than just heating a kang (heated brick bed).

We must find a way to move in.

Yu Yatou is so quick and efficient

In a few more years, I'll surpass your mother.

My daughter has long surpassed me.

Big Meat is Here

Please make way.

Dad, eat meat.

So delicious

Dad, here's one for you too.

You don't eat

You have a good appetite.

Eat more

I suddenly realized that green vegetables actually taste pretty good.

My son still has me in his heart.

This Song family member possesses such skill

But it was hidden in the old house for more than ten years.

The Song family's craftsmanship is so good

My aunt has been so lucky with food these past few years.

I ate boiled vegetables in the old house for over ten years

Where have I ever enjoyed such a blessing?

Li, why didn't you learn a few tricks from your sister-in-law?

They've separated now.

I'm afraid I won't be able to eat such a good meal again.

The third brother's family has been busy all morning, so they should eat more.

Her complexion has improved a lot since the family split.

It seems the big tree didn't wrong you.

So, given that Song's complexion was poor in the past...

It's all my fault, huh?

Even with a good complexion

It's still because he can't have a son.

So what if I don't have a son?

My daughter is still young.

Who says we can't have children later? Let's talk about that.

Some people have quite a few sons.

Who has moved into this mansion?

Xiaoyu and Lihua are both blessed children.

After the three families separate, can they build a large house?

Perhaps it is the blessing brought by the two daughters.

Filial piety of children is enough

Having many sons is pointless if they are unfilial.

Mother, Pear Blossom and I will take care of you from now on.

Offered help in the morning

I wanted to get closer to them

Now, however, she's been dragged down by a single sentence from her mother-in-law.

From now on, merely showing superficial filial piety towards the old house will suffice.

Don't let them into the house and take advantage of you anymore.

A third wife without a son

Why did he suddenly become the object of the whole village's flattery?

Father's banquet is over

We should go home.

I'll sleep here if I don't leave.

Pretending to be asleep, huh?

Come visit when you have time.

Third Brother's father drank too much.

Or maybe we should tidy up a room for him to lie down in first.

As long as tonight remains

Tomorrow I can use the excuse of physical inconvenience to continue staying.

The room doesn't need to be cleaned.

The second son quickly helped the old man into the car.

Send them back to the old house to sleep

Don't touch me, I won't leave.

Dad is not feeling well

Cannot be delayed

Da Yong quickly lifted the person into the car.

I still need to tidy up here.

cough cough

My car isn't enough for Uncle Zhao's one meal.

We didn't need any, so we left two bowls.

It's hot and the food will spoil if you don't finish it.

Thank you all for your hard work today.

Now everyone's on our side.

I have some questions

Uncle, this house cost a lot.

Is your money obtained legitimately?

It's not that I doubt you

It's because I'm afraid that life will just get better.

Another disaster struck.

The village was harvesting bamboo shoots a while ago

Actually, it was a collaboration between me and a restaurant in the county town.

I'm afraid my parents will steal my business.

Only then did Shunzi act as matchmaker.

Bamboo shoots and vegetable slices made a lot of money

So you were the one who harvested the bamboo shoots.

The recipe for those dishes was devised by Xiaoyu's mother.

Xiaoyu is the one who can really cook.

He has a natural love for thinking about food.

Only after the family divided their property did they dare to touch oil and salt.

He is young

I'm afraid that if my skills get out, powerful families will take notice.

He then placed his reputation on his mother.

This must be kept secret.

If outsiders ask in the future, just say it was me.

The solution devised by Song

Your consideration is correct.

The girl is too capable

There is no power in the family.

Easy to attract trouble

We will never tell anyone.

Yu Yatou is a lucky girl

We need to be more careful with future marriage arrangements.

It's hard to marry my daughter

If all else fails, find a son-in-law to live with the family.

Watching it under my nose

I'm only 18 years old.

The father has already started setting up hurdles for his future son-in-law.

It's getting late.

We should go.

It's hard to travel on a dark mountain road.

After I finish tidying up at home

We invite you and Mom to stay for a while.

There is a fire wall in winter

My legs will feel more comfortable.

One

Big Tree, I think your father seems to have his eye on this house.

What if he refuses to leave?

The house of the biological son

The elderly can still get around after staying for a few days.

If we talk about playing the rogue

I am better than my father.

The family division agreement was clearly written.

The eldest and second eldest brothers are responsible for providing for their parents' old age.

I only give filial piety according to the rules.

Facing people like the Zhao family

Shamelessness might actually be a skill.

I'll buy some vegetable seedlings tomorrow.

The yard is so big

Can grow a lot of vegetables

Buy seven or eight more laying hens

Xiaoyu had previously mentioned buying a dog.

I'll go find some fierce, vicious dogs to guard the house.

The puppy will only become close to its owner if you buy it and raise it yourself.

I'll go to the city with you tomorrow.

While we're at it, let's see what kind of business is available in the county town.

Tear off another piece of red floral cloth

Make new clothes for you and Pear Blossom

Bright red is festive

Pear blossoms can wear bright colors

I choose myself

This girl has a big idea.

Entering the city tomorrow

The most vibrant color

The largest flower cloth

Uh, the girl looks very energetic.

The shopkeeper has a good eye

My daughter is beautiful.

Gray cloth is not good enough for her

Hehe, this is so festive!

Uh, sir

This is used during the wedding.

I want this

I chose light blue and green cotton fabric.

Choose pink and pale yellow for pear blossoms

I chose dark blue for my mother

Choose a dirt-resistant dark gray for your home.

Daughter, pick out another outfit for yourself.

Our family can afford it now.

Two sets already

The whole family wears new clothes for the Mid-Autumn Festival

I initially thought this woman would only buy cheap coarse cloth.

I didn't expect to buy several sets of cotton fabric in one go.

Haha, my daughter is so filial!

When buying clothes, I always think of the whole family.

The whole family should be together.

No one can be missing

One

Let's first see what food is most lacking here.

Looking for the next business

The stall only had steamed buns, mantou (steamed bread), and noodles.

Dumplings, candied hawthorns, and regular pastries

Would you like two skewers of candied hawthorn?

There are almost no fried foods

You can't even see freshly cooked side dishes.

Such a large county town

The food was surprisingly monotonous.

Ordinary people can't bear to part with oil

If the price is too high when selling at a stall, no one will buy it.

Since we're already here

I'll bring some food back for Pear Blossom.

In the future, we can try to do some low-cost things.

Snacks with unique flavors

Don't worry about making money yet.

We also need to buy chickens and a guard dog today.

The closer you get to the livestock market, the stronger the smell of manure becomes.

Dad, this place is full of cows, horses, and mules.

Where is the dog?

Go further in

The pharmacist said it was definitely available.

Dad, look over there.

Born to a domestic female dog

One 25 coins

We want two puppies

Can you make them cheaper, 40 coins?

This young lady really knows how to do business.

Okay, whatever you say.

We'll go pick eight more hens that can lay eggs.

You can go home now.

Aha ah ha ah ha ah ha ah ha ah ha

Pear Blossoms, Slow Down

From now on, the job of feeding the dogs will be handed over to Rika.

Can it be done well?

able

Mother, here's a hairpin for you.

The old hairpin was worn down.

Pear Blossom and I each have two hair ties

Wear them together during the holidays

Didn't I tell you to only buy it for yourself?

Two sets, one for me and one for Pear Blossom

You and Dad each have one set.

No one was missing

I'm going to show off to Liu Chunmiao.

Okay, okay, we'll go tomorrow.

Hahaha

You guys play, I'm going for a walk by the river.

I'll come back later to pick up Pear Blossom.

Big sister, be careful!

Riverside is dangerous

Don't fall again

It wasn't an accident that time.

What a big patch of mint!

I'll dig it up and plant it in the yard another day.

Hot weather

The villagers are busy preparing for the autumn harvest in the fields.

The riverbank was deserted.

What is this?

Wow, such a big wild crab!

Mid-Autumn Festival is just around the corner

It's the perfect time for crabs to be plump and full of roe.

Take it away, take it away

Pear blossoms are coming soon.

Pear blossoms, let me show you something beautiful.

One

Oh, this is crab that's edible.

Is it tasty

It's delicious

And the riverbank is full of...

Really

Really?

Great! Let's go tell Mom and Dad!

Hahaha

Pear Blossoms, Slow Down

Hahaha

Mother and Father, come out quickly!

Did your grandfather go to the Liu family to cause trouble?

Who lost out?

Nobody was looking for trouble.

What do you think this is?

River gourd bean

How many adults still play with it?

Don't let the pear blossoms touch

A pinch can penetrate a fingernail

I'm going to steam it and eat it.

There is meat at home

Don't be so greedy that you put everything in your mouth.

This thing is all hard shell.

I baked it when I was a child

I almost broke my tooth.

Didn't you ever think of peeling the shell?

There's something inside when you peel it open.

Daughter, let your mother come.

This thing pinches and hurts a lot.

If you tie them up, they'll be fine.

My mother helped me start the fire.

Put a few slices of ginger in the steamer

Crabs are here!

How can river gourds smell so good?

How can I even begin to eat this?

This white soft plug is inedible.

Dip the rest of the meat in a little ginger and vinegar sauce

This meat is even more tender than fish.

River gourds are delicious

Edible things about gourds

Don't tell Chunmei

And you can't tell anyone.

If word gets out, others will arrest them.

We won't make money.

I don't have money to buy new clothes and candy.

snort

Pear blossoms aside

I can give the other spirit tails to Spring Seedling.

That patch of mud next to our house

River gourds are everywhere

Normally nobody wants it.

I'll go pick another basket.

Continue eating tonight

Apricots are cold in nature and should not be eaten in large quantities.

You and your mother can each have a maximum of two.

I and Pear Blossom each have one.

I'll go pick up 6 now.

I want two

You don't want Pear Blossom to tell anyone.

Are you planning to make a business out of river gourds again?

Everyone in the village knows He Hulu.

People in the county town also know him

Even if we say we can eat

People know that there are mud everywhere.

I won't spend money to buy

They recognize each other even when they're wearing clothes

Let's take off our clothes and then sell them.

Peel off the shell

They only sell crab meat and crab roe.

Then it will be based on the price of pork.

It sells for thirty or forty coins per catty.

You can't get much meat out of a crab.

Working hard all day only to sell a few dozen coins

It's not worth it at all

Cannot be sold by weight

I want to make it into a sauce.

It was considered a rare item that was not available in the county town.

There are many large blue crabs on the riverbank.

A few words spoken with a wooden stick can easily reveal several [items/problems].

Pick them all up

Consider it crab sauce

Pear blossoms also went

In other people's eyes, rotten mud

In our eyes, it's all meat.

Don't make a fuss yet.

Can the sauce be sold?

It also depends on whether the shopkeeper knows the quality of the goods.

The whole crab that was stolen for dinner was gone.

Fresh meat won't last until tomorrow

Should we send them to the city overnight?

Render the sauce with lard

It can be stored for at least a month.

One ounce of lard

Approximately 7 ounces of crab meat

Cook until butter floats to the surface.

Then it can be put into jars

Scald the three small jars with boiling water and let them dry.

The two jars of crab sauce were sealed.

The remaining jar is for home consumption.

Daughter

This sauce is labor-intensive

It can't be sold too cheaply.

Lard, scallions, and ginger all cost money.

Shopkeeper asked about the price

You then said ten taels of silver per jar

How many

10 taels

A jar of broken lotus root and gourd sauce sells for 10 taels.

Are you selling sauce or planning to rob a restaurant?

Robbing money is illegal

Selling rare items is not illegal

The shopkeeper tasted it

Of course I know whether it's worth it or not.

10 taels per plate

This is not about eating sauce.

Is it eating gold?

We won't talk about raw materials.

Who knows what kind of gourd it is?

It's called Golden Jade Dew Sauce

It's a one-of-a-kind product.

What if the shopkeeper doesn't buy?

Try it first and then talk about it.

Scarcity makes things valuable

Only our family can do this in the county.

Waiter, bring some snacks.

What smells so good?

Shopkeeper, please have a bowl of plain noodles to mix and try.

This tastes so good it makes me feel like I'm flying!

What is Brother Zhao made of?

I have been making food for 20 years

I couldn't taste it.

How to sell

10 taels per jar

We have cooperated many times

I really can't accept this price.

One jar can be used to mix many bowls of rice or noodles.

You can also make dumplings and stir-fry vegetables.

It wasn't meant for ordinary customers.

I'll give it to my brother for the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Auspicious name

Things are rare

On-site food tasting

I only know if it's worth it after I try it.

sure

The best crab roe soup dumplings

Another prescription is needed.

I'll keep one of the two jars of sauce today.

Consider this jar from Kaifeng a gift from you.

How about buying another recipe book?

You can give the shopkeeper any other simple ways to eat it.

Haha, what does my daughter want to eat?

Buy two more outfits

With a big red flower

Don't give me the money to manage.

It hasn't even warmed up yet.

Let's go drink mutton soup first.

I always crave it when I pass by.

But I've never been able to bring myself to buy it.

I ate two bowls today and was stuffed.

father

Are you really my mother's biological child?

I also had my doubts.

But the old people in the village all say

I watched her get pregnant with me

I was born

Were you particularly annoying when you were a child?

Your dad is so smart

He'll definitely outshine your uncle.

They don't like it.

If you can't figure it out, then stop thinking about it.

I will take care of you in the future

So, will Dad eat chicken or grass from now on?

It all depends on you.

You're way past the age where you need your parents' love and pampering.

From now on, there will be me and Pear Blossom.

Dad, your elder brother

Don't look, cover your eyes

Even his aunt is prettier than him.

My uncle's taste isn't very good either.

Third brother, what are you doing here?

You're following me

You built the road.

You are worth following.

It's best not to have seen what happened today.

Otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite.

How can I be so impolite?

Tell me so I can broaden my horizons.

Don't pry into my affairs.

Hurry back to the village

Who do you think you are, sir?

More than ten years of schooling

They haven't learned propriety, righteousness, integrity, and a sense of shame.

He even learned to hug women in broad daylight.

I crawled into bed and went to the inn.

Don't teach children bad things

Forget everything you just saw

Not every man is like that.

Your father was devoted to his family.

Dad is the best

Big brother, take your time.

There are rooms at the inn in front.

We didn't see

I won't delay your good time.

Is my uncle very rich?

He teaches in the county town

Your grandparents' subsidy is here again.

Life will definitely be good

Where does he live?

Why ask this?

In case of emergencies later

You can also find people

This is it.

I heard it was he who bought it.

Money to find women

He would probably also be willing to sponsor his niece who was sold by him.

I wrote down our journey.

The small jar at home has run out.

We're going to buy 40 jars.

I wonder how well the Golden Jade Dew Sauce is selling.

One jar can be used to make many dishes

Not many can be sold in the short term

But crabs only have this one season.

We need to store it in advance.

Dad, I saw Grandpa with the white beard again last night.

He lent me something.

It may be taken back later.

What things will burn you?

One that only I can see

A place to store things

Where

Grandpa with the white beard called it the Qiankun Bag.

This is magic.

My daughter wants to go to heaven and become a goddess someday.

People can't get in

It can only store things

What to do when you put it in

How long do you have to wait before taking it out, or what is it like?

Hot porridge can be kept for a month

The porridge was still hot when it came out.

Gods give treasures for no reason

Is there going to be a famine?

I'm afraid you'll starve to death.

I told you to stock up on food in advance

It's possible to store the crab sauce first.

Before Hepu Road freezes to death

Do more

How big is the Qiankun Bag?

A room

You need to go home and tell your mother.

Earn money to buy grain

father

You're like you've been injected with chicken blood.

I carried back nine baskets of crabs in one afternoon.

We simply can't wrap them all.

First put it in the Qiankun bag

After finishing picking up the scavengers in one village, they went to another village.

After the holiday, there's nowhere to pick them up.

What if they can't be sold?

Both the jar and the lard have to be compensated.

Pah! Bad things don't work, good things do!

Can't you just wish our family well?

After learning about the Qiankun Bag

I don't dare to get close to my daughter like I usually do.

Mom, I'm still Xiaoyu

Please don't treat me like a fairy.

Mother is just afraid of bringing you trouble.

Even Pear Blossom shouldn't know about this.

The fewer people who know, the safer it is.

Zhao Xiaoyu

I've finally found you!

Father will soon return carrying a basket of live crabs.

Shopkeeper, please take a seat.

I'm going to find my dad.

The shopkeeper is here

You can't take the river gourd back.

Ah, shopkeeper

What brings you to my house?

The restaurant was very busy.

I came here to ask...

Do you still have Golden Jade Dew Sauce?

There are still 10 jars

Give me all 10 jars

There weren't enough to go around for each restaurant.

Then order another 30 jars

30 jars equals 300 taels.

When should we come to pick up a batch in five days?

You should do your best.

become

Hahaha

Mom made money today.

Make something delicious for dinner.

What to eat and how much time does cooking take?

Just cook some noodles.

Once this busy period is over

Eat whatever you want

Your mother is right.

Every moment is money now.

We are currently short-staffed.

They even used pear blossoms.

Of course we need to hire people.

Is your Uncle Shunzi reliable?

If you've already thought it through, just say so.

Find the village chief again

Old Man Qian and his grandson and two reliable families

One pound of live crabs for three cents and...

We can't gather in groups

The basket should be covered with leaves.

You can't even tell your own children.

Delivery only to the front yard

No one is allowed in the backyard

I understand that even if your grandfather comes, it won't work.

Good things get into his hands

He turned around and sent the person to the county town.

I'll go find someone right away.

The shopkeeper came to visit in person today.

Is there something to make money about again?

I want river gourds

Three coins per pound

Secretly go to the mud and riverbank to pick up

Cover the basket with leaves

No one can tell anyone.

What can that thing do?

Never mind what I do

Just ask if you'll do it or not.

How much did you pick up?

I will accept whatever amount.

This isn't how you make money.

It is bending down to pick up silver

Three coins per pound

I collect 1,000 jin a day

Do you want to?

We need them all, but they must be kept secret.

It was already dark.

What are you doing?

I'll fight anyone who stops me from picking up money.

Be careful to conceal.

Don't let anyone see it

I know, why are you so long-winded?

The tree didn't mind that I'm old.

Still willing to make money with me

I must remember this kindness.

ah

Pear Blossom, hurry back to your room and go to sleep.

Wash your feet quickly

I still need to get the gourds from Baohe tomorrow morning.

They don't even spare children as young as a few years old.

You really do resemble the old house in some ways.

Woof woof woof

Not enough copper coins

Pick up more tomorrow

Come directly to exchange for silver coins

Then I'll go to the river at the east end of the village at dawn.

ah

Hahaha

My daughter and her friends picked up so many in one day

They even said I'm greedy for money, hahaha.

There are fewer left after picking them up in the vicinity.

Then we went further together.

Delivered every few days

That's exactly what I was thinking.

When I make money

We'll go to other counties to stockpile grain.

The immortal didn't give the Qiankun Bag for nothing.

Perhaps there will be no disaster.

Stock up early for peace of mind

A batch of goods will be delivered on the 5th.

Approximately 20 jars per batch

300 new jars have just been delivered from the county town.

The backyard was piled up densely

snort

Several suppliers delivered goods at night like thieves.

The villagers only knew that they had suddenly disappeared.

The children at home couldn't say where they went.

Resources along the river in our village are dwindling.

People have begun to travel together to more distant villages.

The truck won't come back until it's fully loaded.

This thing disappears when it gets cold.

Work one more day now

Take 10 extra days off in winter

My uncle occasionally gives me meat buns.

Never mind.

This is the first time I've felt that making money can be so grueling.

It is not allowed to be broadcast for the next two days.

Playing with the dog in the yard

As long as you don't look at the river gourd

Anything is fine

Dad, do you still want to eat crab?

I don't want to feel nauseous just looking at it now.

How's your income these past few days?

Seven or eight hundred taels

The daughter-in-law continued to wrap

This is much easier than farming.

Once all the jars are sold

There may be several thousand taels

Buy a carriage and a servant

Let's be masters too!

Keep a low profile if there is indeed a year of disaster.

People with money and food are the most eye-catching.

Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching

We need to get some supplies.

Busy for so many days

Everyone forgot the holiday was coming soon.

Buy mooncakes, chicken, and meat

Have a good meal during the holiday

We also need to send holiday gifts to the old house.

Two pounds of pork belly

A pound of mooncakes

Not too light, not too heavy

The bride's family also sent gifts.

Then secretly give your mother-in-law ten taels

What if my tears fall into the crab meat?

We can't get away from here.

Let Uncle Fugui go to the city to buy holiday gifts.

One

Several suppliers are busy making money

Everyone thinks that having money makes every day a holiday.

Nobody was in the mood to rest.

Dad, what despicable thing have you done again?

nonsense

It's when harvesting river gourds

Forgot your hometown

I didn't remember.

Don't let your mother know.

Go tell your father-in-law now.

Give me another 10 taels

Make up for the losses

We'll leave once Mom comes out.

This is Xiaoyu's way of showing filial piety to your parents.

You must accept it

After visiting the Yue family

Go back to the old house

The old house can't be criticized.

We are currently acquiring nuclear gourds.

They can make a lot of delicious food.

No wonder someone was there a few days ago

The village was shrouded in mud and people were acting suspiciously.

So that's what they were picking up.

Shunzi has already had someone search the area around his wife's house.

The silver that should have belonged to the Yue family was taken ahead of time.

father

Afterwards, you took your two brothers-in-law to a distant place to collect [the items].

Three coins per pound

Delivered to my house at night

Cover the basket

Don't let anyone see

I'll go to the field to find my son in a bit.

You absolutely must not let your wife know.

I forgot about my in-laws first.

You have a lot on your plate these days.

Hurry back and get busy.

Mom, we're home.

Tomorrow I have to take the eldest and second eldest to divide the spoils.

Three teams went to collect crabs in more distant river channels.

Dad, I've brought you holiday gifts.

You have so much silver

Is this all you're going to give your parents?

Which family in the village separated from the main household?

My son's gift was heavier than the one I gave him.

I left with nothing.

The house was just built

You don't support us

On the contrary, they felt it was too little.

They built such a big house despite their tight budget.

There are four people in the family, and none of them have a son.

Can we accommodate them all?

Your house has many rooms

There was no one nearby.

Living in a desolate place

Let us move there with the second son's family.

Add popularity to your profile

The eldest son also stayed in the new house when he came back for the holidays.

How wonderful it is for the whole family to be together!

No, my family prefers quiet.

My older brother didn't go to the exam.

I should stay by my parents' side and fulfill my filial duties.

The house in the county town is also quite nice.

Why don't you go and enjoy life?

I'm talking about you

Why bring up the boss?

You think my gift is too small?

How much did my older brother give?

Don't say he has no money

His family has servants to wait on him.

You are different from the eldest.

They are indeed different.

I love my wife

Devoted to family

My older brother lives off his parents.

Go out and live off your in-laws

He even secretly ate food.

What nonsense are you spouting?

I saw him on the street in the county town with my own eyes.

He was laughing so happily while embracing the brothel owner.

The money you saved from between your teeth

All the money went to women outside.

Every bite of meat the second wife has saved over the years

They could all become the money fathers who seek pleasure with their older brothers.

You have time to think about my house

Why not deal with the eldest son, whom you love the most, first?

My older brother has studied the classics for over ten years.

But he used the money his family had saved to go to brothels.

If it were my son

I would have broken his legs long ago.

You must have been the one who smeared him.

They just wanted to refuse us the idea of ​​living in the new house.

Let me make myself clear.

The new house is home to my family of four.

Besides wife and daughters

Nobody can move in.

I left with nothing when the family property was divided.

Sending this gift now is an act of filial piety.

Don't always covet things that don't belong to you.

You won't support your parents anymore.

I have fulfilled my filial duties.

Not a single penny more

father

They really should keep an eye on their older brother.

Prostitution leads to a host of venereal diseases

It's still the Zhao family that's lost face.

The fact that my father and elder brother were indulging in debauchery

Did you know this sooner?

It's all the third brother's nonsense.

Don't be fooled by him.

I am not a child

How long has it been since we've had meat at home?

Rough girls have to save on alcohol.

Using servants to play with women

Don't you feel guilty?

The eldest son is capable on his own.

The money he earned from teaching

Want to drink and want to patronize prostitutes

none of your business

You can just let it go if you want.

If you don't want to live, then don't live.

Want to compete with the boss

Maybe in the next life

Your mother said those things out of anger.

Don't take it to heart.

Li and I have been doing housework for the family over the years.

It turns out I'm not even as good as my older brother for a day.

Family members don't talk about these things.

Okay, then let's get to work.

My older brother wants to teach.

Sister-in-law and Ruxin don't need

Let them come back to live here starting tomorrow.

Help with cooking, laundry, and chopping wood at home

They won't do it.

Neither Li nor I would agree.

The county town still needs someone to take care of it.

There are servants in the county town

And the eldest brother doesn't pay his teaching fees.

After that, I did odd jobs with the Li family.

They didn't even pay for the embroidered slogans.

My child must go to school in the county town after the New Year.

This is the first time I've seen him so tough.

If the second wife strikes again

The old house will really become paralyzed.

Second brother, you go to the county town.

Tell the eldest daughter and Ru Xin to bring their luggage back.

Just say it was me who said it.

If you don't come back, you don't need to come back anymore.

Although unwilling to run errands for the first wife

Now I have no choice but to go by myself.

What are you doing here again?

Father asked his sister-in-law and Ruxin to take their luggage back to the village.

Go back and stay for a few days

Why bring luggage?

Your older brother and child still need someone to take care of them.

There are servants in the house

If even your father can't get you to move now

I then went back and asked him to come in person.

My parents will definitely see my wealthy life when they come to the city.

They can't come.

Wang, you and Ruxin should go back and stay for a few days.

I will pick you up after the Mid-Autumn Festival.

I won't go back to my grandparents' house because I can't eat or sleep well.

Just bear with it for a few more days while Mother is here.

Bring all the pastries

I was hungry, so I closed the door and ate secretly.

Dad specifically asked you and your mother to come back.

He would definitely personally come if there was one less tomorrow.

Ahhh

I always walk when I go into the city.

Even the eldest son returning to the village had to take an oxcart, no matter the circumstances.

Mom and Dad, Ruxin and I are back to celebrate the holiday with you.

They were clearly forced to come back.

That sounds so nice

It's good to be back

After the third son left

There are not enough people at home

From now on, you and your mother will live in the village.

Help the second child's family

The head of the household and his two sons all live in the city.

I'm worried.

Hmph, aren't there servants in the city?

You really think of yourself as a lady?

In the past, I valued silver and

He never used sweet words to harass his eldest daughter-in-law.

Now I know he bought a house and women without telling me.

He absolutely has to suffer a bit.

The second couple had to work in the fields.

From now on, cooking, washing clothes, chopping wood and...

The vegetable garden is all entrusted to you and your daughter.

The chickens and pigs are gone.

It has become much easier

I've never done these things.

Hmph, who's born knowing how to do that?

If you don't know, then learn.

Free food and drink

Still want to be a rich girl

Learn embroidery and wear a cotton skirt

It was to marry into a wealthy family

If you touch firewood and soil every day

Hands will inevitably be rough

Dad, I do the housework.

Ruxin's hand must not be hurt.

She learned embroidery in the city.

Can make money in the future

This time, I really can't escape.

Ruxin learned silk embroidery in the embroidery workshop.

If your hands are rough, they will snag.

She can earn less money with this skill in the future.

Cannot do heavy work

As kind and skillful

You really need to protect your hands.

The eldest son's children all learn new skills

My own child does manual labor every day.

Ruxin Learns Embroidery

How much silver per month

100 words

Wang spent 100 coins on a money-losing girl.

You're crazy.

Since the mind can learn

My daughter Zhaodi is also an option.

The roughness and itching of the hands will subside after a while.

Starting today

She learned needlework from her cousin.

Don't touch any other work.

Thank you, Dad.

father

I am also your son.

As you wish

Sisters

You taught Zhao Di several acupuncture techniques.

I don't teach

Without being taught, he did housework with his mother.

Which one do you choose?

Tomorrow's Instruction

Mmm

Mother, I want to go back to the city.

Can we leave now?

Your dad didn't take the exam.

The third branch was divided up again.

We are like tigers fallen into the plains.

We must keep a low profile

Why do grandparents treat us like this?

In the past, some people suffered for us.

Nobody wants to do it now.

Tomorrow's mother cooks, does laundry, and chops firewood.

Don't go out.

Zhao Di came and taught some simple acupuncture techniques.

Deal with it

With Mom here, everything is alright.

We must not let them take advantage of you as well.

One

eldest daughter

Why aren't you cooking?

They're incubating the eggs inside.

This is for you and Dad.

You can make a dress.

Calm down.

I'll go cook now.

You are wearing a cotton quilt.

Trying to fob off a beggar with this piece of junk?

Wang, who hadn't done housework for years, burned the rice.

The vegetables were also half-cooked.

What are you making?

Wasting food at home

Li redid it.

Wang will continue tomorrow.

After breakfast, we'll go up the mountain to chop firewood.

Don't eat if you don't learn it.

Mind your own business

As long as you don't get dragged into it

It's nothing for my mother to suffer this little bit.

Get up early tomorrow morning

Don't keep your whole family waiting for you.

The hard times have only just begun.

Shunzi said her sister-in-law gets scolded every day.

Wearing coarse cloth clothes

His hair was a mess, like a bird's nest.

Where is the scholar's wife now?

Grandma didn't dare take her anger out on her uncle.

They can only bully their daughters-in-law

A typical bully at home

gloat

Not afraid of being laughed at

Dad wants you to come back to the old house for a family reunion dinner during the Mid-Autumn Festival.

good

I've always thought I was smarter than my third brother.

Now, I'm the one suffering the most.

I went to the county town to buy groceries

If the food at the old house is not good during the Mid-Autumn Festival

We'll eat by ourselves when we get back tonight.

Mung bean cake candied hawthorn candy

Buy them all

Yay! Yay!

Mid-Autumn Festival

The eldest son's family will definitely return to the village.

Only one servant remained in the house.

This is the perfect opportunity to get started.

Awooooo

My uncle always complains about being poor.

Their family wealth is better than anyone else's.

Two pounds of mung bean cake

Two catties of hibiscus cake

Two chickens and 5 jin of pork belly

5 jin of pork ribs

Two carp and candied hawthorns are ready

I'll pass by the steamed bun shop in a bit.

Buy another 50 meat buns and 50 baked buns

Prepare to fill your stomach when you're busy

Uncle will be very surprised when he gets home tonight.

The space has become larger

Gold and silver books and jewelry are all

Only one of Wang's jade bracelets was missing.

Could jade upgrade a space?

The old house remained unchanged after the last emptying.

The only special thing about this one is the jade bracelet.

I'll go to the pawnshop to buy a jade ornament another day.

This can be verified.

Xiaoyu's old house has already come to urge them twice.

Hurry up and change into new clothes

Dad went to eat.

Or are you planning to drive your grandparents crazy?

He just wanted to show off.

Wang was now wearing greasy coarse cloth clothes.

disheveled hair

She looked much more haggard in just a few days.

Li has not had new clothes for many years.

The children even altered their coats into smaller ones.

Patches upon patches

But the third wife was wearing new clothes.

Isn't this just a special trip to show off?

Why is Zhao Xiaoyu dressed so well?

I really wanted him to take it off and let me wear it right there.

All year round

I don't even have a new piece of clothing.

The sons I raised were all ungrateful wretches.

This slovenly village woman

It turned out to be his former beautiful and respectable wife.

eldest daughter

The second son's family went to cook.

father

Isn't the third son's wife a good cook?

Let everyone try it today.

My wife is clumsy.

Don't waste things

My older brother had never eaten this before.

When we had our housewarming party

The whole village has tasted the mother's cooking.

My sister-in-law has been married into the Zhao family for so many years

My family has never eaten a meal cooked by her.

The eldest sister-in-law is truly blessed.

This is the woman surnamed Wang who has been married into the family for so many years.

They couldn't bear to let her do heavy work.

What is Wang Shi still standing there for?

Hurry up and cook

The third branch held a housewarming banquet.

They didn't invite me.

My third brother is doing well now.

The old house has not been repaired for many years.

You have money

He then repaired the house for his parents.

Or rebuild a grand mansion.

Where would I get the money?

The new house cost all our savings

Still in debt

Unlike my older brother, who can buy an existing house.

He even has spare money to find women outside.

Your older brother is wrong.

I will teach them a lesson

Today is a holiday

Let's all say less.

After it gets cold

He moved into a new three-bedroom house citing his fear of the cold.

As long as I move in

The first and second wives will be able to move in sooner or later.

Old Sun snatched two pieces of fatty meat.

Zhao Zhaodi and Zhao Ruxin each managed to grab a piece.

Even Wang, who used to dislike coarse grains, joined the scramble.

It's not that they can't get it.

Instead, they simply don't crave it.

There are still things to do at home

We'll head back now.

I used to think that stewed cabbage with pork was the most delicious food in the world.

I can't eat anything today.

We're living a good life now.

Even cornbread doesn't taste good anymore.

Go home and eat steamed buns

Make another good meal tonight

They barely touched the food on the table.

Therefore, the three-bedroom family lives in a remote area.

I must eat meat every day.

So-called no money

It's all lies.

Father, it's getting late.

Our whole family went back to the county town first.

Finally, I can leave the old house!

You take your two sons back

Wang and Ruxin will stay and take care of your filial duties.

Return to the city during the winter when you're hibernating.

But I can't be left alone to take care of myself.

Then you should move back too.

There are naturally people around.

My second brother went to call an oxcart for me.

We can barely afford to buy food at home.

Where would I get the money to charter a car round trip?

I always walk when I go into the city.

Big Brother can also walk, Ah Yong

Go call a car.

The eldest brother is the son

I also hope he can hire a car in the future.

Can I also get a package if I go into the city?

It's still early, sir.

You can walk back slowly.

Walking strengthens the body

My older brother studies all day long.

Just the right exercise

I used to think that celebrating festivals in the old house was like eating dragon meat.

Today, all I want to do is come back as soon as possible.

You're lucky to have such a good life.

Good days are brought by light rain.

Dad, did you go to the wrong place?

Why haven't they arrived yet?

Impossible, absolutely impossible

I used to take this road when I went to town as a child.

It's impossible to be wrong

However, the oxcart only runs for half a day during the Mid-Autumn Festival.

There wasn't a single empty car on the mountain road.

Dad, I'm thirsty

Just bear with it a little longer.

Water is available as soon as you see the city gate.

We walked for almost an hour

When will we reach the city gate?

Keep going!

I drank water as soon as I got home

Eat noodles, soak your feet, and go to sleep.

I'm finally home.

When I got home, I asked Mrs. Wei to cook noodles.

Two eggs per person

Egg noodles

I'm home.

master

Hahaha

Go away, I'm not dead yet.

Why are you crying?

Quickly pour three bowls of water

Add two eggs to each bowl of noodles when cooking.

A thief broke in.

Everything was stolen.

Even the water bowl was left behind.

ah

The kitchen only has no iron pot left.

An earthen stove and a pile of firewood

All the bookshelves, desks, and books in the study have disappeared.

The bedroom was left with only a bare bed frame.

Who do you think you are to dare steal from the scholar's residence?

I want to report this to the authorities.

Planting thieves in the ground as ginseng

The money I've accumulated over ten years

All the jewelry and books are gone.

father

Old lady

It must have been Wei who took advantage of our absence.

They colluded with outsiders to steal everything.

We will report this to the authorities tomorrow.

Sell ​​her

I'll report to my father-in-law tomorrow.

Give me her indenture

Now it seems even the indenture has been stolen.

The indenture is gone

I am not a slave

Staying means not being killed

It means being sold

While the three of them are asleep

Go back to your room and take your savings

One tael of silver and clothing

I left overnight

be mine

Jiawen went to find the Wei family.

Father Wei has disappeared.

There was no one in the courtyard or the servants' quarters.

You guard the home

I went to report it to the authorities.

After Wei returned

Let her cook first.

Fortunately, because he had the status of a scholar...

No need to beat the drum and kneel

You can directly bow to the county magistrate.

Zhao Xiucai, what's wrong with you?

Your Excellency, my home has been robbed.

My home was completely ransacked.

Books, food, pots and pans, and money were all lost.

Even the cooking pot was gone.

Could a notorious thief have appeared?

Your Excellency, please take your constables and go investigate immediately.

yes

This is not theft, magistrate.

It's even worse than ransacking a house!

I went to ask the neighbor.

They all said they did not see a carriage.

Ox carts and strangers coming and going

Large pieces of furniture, such as bookshelves and desks, disappeared without a trace.

It is incomprehensible to everyone

Such a bizarre thing actually happened.

advisor

I hereby order you to thoroughly investigate this matter.

Subordinate official's efforts

Who has Zhao Xiucai offended recently?

I only teach children in the school.

How could I make enemies?

Where are the servants in the house?

Wei did not return home all night.

The servants' quarters have also been cleaned up.

The matter is clear.

The Wei family mostly colluded with outsiders.

Empty the house while your whole family is away.

I deliberately left it yesterday

It's to continue stealing money from you.

I ordered the constables to hunt down the Wei family.

But one night passed

The chances of finding the person are extremely slim.

I am now penniless.

father

There was also no food to support it.

I can only take my sons back to the village.

First, take us back to Old Sow Village.

My dad will give me money later.

good

In the past, people disliked oxcarts because they were smelly and slow.

At this moment, as long as you don't have to walk

Then I felt exceptionally comfortable.

What will we eat after Dad goes back to the village?

Your grandma won't let us go hungry.

For the first time, I felt that my father was my only support.

Dad, my house has been burgled.

What was lost?

No report to the authorities.

Everything was gone, not even a grain of rice remained.

The yamen said that Granny Wei colluded with outsiders.

She has already run away.

That thief deserves to die a horrible death.

What exactly did the older brother lose?

It's not just the food at home, is it?

Of course, there are more...

Boss

Oh

Hahaha

The wealth hidden by the eldest son's wife far exceeds 72 taels.

The indenture and house deed are also lost.

The property deed can be replaced.

It seems that Wei's indenture cannot be repaired.

Why bother buying servants when you can learn from the wealthy?

Now it's all good.

The servants even ransacked the house.

How much silver did you lose?

I

He then secretly took the two children back to the county town.

I'll just pretend I don't have a son like you.

Silver, jewelry, books, and family fortune accumulated over many years

The total would probably be over 200 taels.

The eldest brother was right under his nose

He amassed such a fortune from below

The village weeps repeatedly.

An article titled "Never Filial to Parents"

Over the years, you've focused all your energy on making money and enjoying life.

No wonder I kept failing the exam.

Father's current situation

What should I do?

Heartbroken

I still have to protect you.

Who told you to be my son?

The loss cannot be told to the second and third children.

The house is still standing

Waiting for the school to pay wages

We'll acquire them gradually.

I am now penniless.

He could only rely on his father's help.

Why are you crying and wailing?

Things that can make you cry

If she cries again, she will go out to chop wood.

We should be thankful the house is still standing.

I'll be able to receive my teaching wages in another two weeks.

There are no servants in the house.

I need to go back to the city with you.

Otherwise, what will you eat?

I will talk to my father tomorrow.

The second wife would never let go of a laborer from a county town.

I want to go back to the city.

It's probably not easy.

We'll talk about it tomorrow.

Autumn harvest is approaching

Do Uncle Liu and the others still have time to collect walnut gourds?

They hired laborers to harvest the crops.

Continue picking up

Your grandfather is even crazier.

He has already led his men to another county.

Earning no less than straight

Restaurant orders decreased after Mid-Autumn Festival

We still do so much

Will they sell out?

I was just about to ask you

There are many more holidays to come.

And the Lunar New Year

Crab sauce won't spoil if stored in a container.

Unsold this year

They'll sell right again next year.

I almost forgot about the last time it disappeared.

Jade bracelet and extra space

I need to verify this.

Dad, I'm going to the county town.

Go ahead and buy some broiler chicken, wheat flour, and polished rice while you're at it.

If jade can truly upgrade space

This deal was truly a sure-fire way to make a fortune.

Are there any cheap bathrooms?

I would buy candied hawthorns whenever I had spare money.

This is not a place for children to play.

Dogs look down on people

There are guys like this.

This shop closes early in the morning and late at night.

Dear customer, would you like to buy or pawn?

Buy cheap jade jewelry

One

A string of small jade bracelets

1 liang 2 mace

make a deal

Sir/Madam, you haven't paid yet.

It can indeed be upgraded.

After the space is expanded

It's time to go on a shopping spree!

White flour, whole grains, meat, and vegetables are at least

One

Uncle

How did you walk into the city today?

Adult matters

Children should ask fewer questions

He has no manners at all.

There must be something fishy going on.

I cooked dinner

I bought fish and chicken today.

They are all snacks to go with alcohol.

If it weren't for having to peel crabs

I absolutely must have a few drinks.

Waiting for winter to hibernate

I'll buy you a few jars of wine to enjoy slowly.

Dad, I teased your brother on the way back.

Your uncle's house was burgled.

The house that was moved was almost as clean as the old house.

The government said that the servants had already fled with the thieves.

Does my uncle's family have many valuable things?

I don't know if he dares not say.

Your grandparents asked me to go to the old house.

Your grandma cried in front of me for a long time.

I guess they want me to pay.

Jade has upgraded the space

My uncle also lost all his savings.

This trip to the county town was truly a double blessing.

I refuse to believe it.

How could this thief steal so cleanly?

Everything is really gone.

Now all I can do is go back to that wretched rural village.

Grandpa and Grandma are calling you over.

It wasn't just about my uncle being robbed, was it?

Autumn harvest is approaching

The second brother left the eldest brother's family to work.

But they're all useless.

Your grandfather wants us to contribute money to help him out.

They even wanted us to take over the land from the eldest son's family.

You agreed.

I'm not sick.

After the family split up, everyone lived their own lives.

Why should I harvest the crops for my older brother?

Although Old Mrs. Sun scolded your father terribly

He didn't care at all.

Haha, let him curse if he wants.

Another piece of meat is indispensable.

No need for autumn harvest this year.

Making money by wrapping crabs at home is so easy!

Parents, I can't sit still at home.

I want to go up the mountain to find wild vegetables and medicinal herbs.

Last time, a wild boar almost killed you.

There's no shortage of that food at home.

As expected of my daughter

Wild at heart like me

You can go, but you can't go deep into the mountains.

Even the mountainside is not allowed to be approached.

Okay, I'll go out tomorrow with my bamboo basket on my back.

Xiaoyu's family is now wealthy.

Why did you personally go up the mountain to dig for wild vegetables?

Even if you have money, you shouldn't waste the resources in the mountains.

Still no precious medicinal herbs found

They only collected a large amount of dry firewood.

Sir, where did you pick this up again?

Big Box County: Three Days to Walk, Two Days to Pick Up

Return in three more days

Eight days of hard work yielded nothing but hard-earned money.

It's too far, let my uncles go next time.

You are resting at home.

The car was empty when it went.

I sat in the car and let them pull me around without getting tired.

Without a father

We really lack a leader.

Let's go home first.

I plan to head to the next place tomorrow.

Sir, please wait...

Take it with you to eat on the road

Several families were picking crabs

Each muddy area is cleaned only once.

After so long

A new batch may have already grown nearby.

After returning to the village, the old man looked at the mud he had collected before.

Maybe it's happening again.

Dad will take everyone to see the area next to our house first.

And it really happened again.

My granddaughter is really smart.

We immediately rearranged our personnel.

Even I'm envious of the money your maternal grandfather's family earns.

We earn more

When there are no crabs in winter

You just stay home drinking and eating meat.

Hahaha

After the acquisition is completed

Rent a mule cart

Let's go to the nearby county town and buy more grain.

In case there really is a year of disaster

The eldest brother ate chaff

We can still eat vegetables

I bought several hundred kilograms yesterday.

Grains, chicken, duck, fish, meat, and vegetables should all be stored.

Buy in the nearby county towns

Don't let anyone notice anything unusual.

This year has been blessed with favorable weather.

But you two seem convinced that a year of disaster is coming.

It doesn't matter, the things won't break anyway.

It's not considered a waste of money.

The whole village will be busy harvesting grain tomorrow.

There are few people in the county town

We're just going to buy some goods.

Buy more cotton and fabric

Make more quilts

Winter clothes should also be prepared.

Ultimately, they took advantage of the autumn harvest to build the large house.

The whole family stayed in the village.

The house was just emptied

Now not only do they receive no comfort

The whole family also had to work in the fields.

All males will go to work tomorrow.

I saw it myself.

The eldest son's wife and the second son's wife also harvested wheat.

The children were picking up ears of wheat behind them.

The old woman and Ruxin stayed home to cook and deliver water.

Delivering water is the easiest job.

father

It really isn't the third son's family.

It's been called twice already.

I was once criticized by the third brother

Once I was teased by Yu Yatou

From now on, whoever wants to go can go.

I'm not going to go and get upset.

I must go and call them; I can't let them slack off.

A person whose parents can't wake up

The eldest brother actually thought that his intervention would be effective.

Keep a close eye on your home

I am in charge of the fields

We must not let the autumn harvest go wrong.

Ru Xin started cooking.

Your parents and uncles still need to go to the fields after they finish eating.

That old hag

Can't I cook for myself?

You have to order me around

It's still dark outside.

I still want to sleep in during the autumn harvest.

Get up quickly

Where is my mother?

Your mother is going to the fields to harvest wheat.

I can't cook well today.

You shouldn't eat either.

I grew up in the county town.

I've only ever held an embroidery needle.

I've never even burned firewood in the kitchen.

Now I have to cook every day.

cough cough cough

Ready to go to the ground

The food isn't ready yet.

How long are you making all these people wait?

Can't even cook a meal

When there was no food, he would take a few cornbread buns with him to the fields.

Ruxin left behind

Prepare lunch and deliver it over

teenage girls

Eats faster than anyone else

He can't do any work

She'll be destined to be divorced even if she gets married in the future.

I'm not doing it anymore.

Whoever wants to do it can do it.

I'd rather not just fall to my death.

Even cooking can cause trouble.

My legs are immobile.

Brother, at this rate...

Even if it snows, it won't be all collected.

A scholar's hands are for holding a pen.

How can they be compared to peasants?

Wheat doesn't recognize scholars.

Unable to finish collecting today

They continued into the night.

Dad, I don't want to do it anymore, my hands hurt.

Just hang in there a little longer.

Rest when your grandpa isn't looking.

Brother, others have already harvested a field.

Why haven't you cut off their heads yet?

Don't rush to be reincarnated!

The wind is favorable for Da Wen today.

We must collect more

In case it rains

Wheat will be ruined if it falls to the ground.

father

I studied from a young age

Where can I get used to heavy work?

Why not hire a few laborers?

Please hire a rough worker.

The eldest brother paid for it himself.

There's no money left in the family's public accounts.

The house was burgled.

They can't even afford the bus fare back to the county town.

Where would I be willing to hire someone?

I feel dizzy and want to rest for a while.

My sister-in-law has already taken five breaks this morning.

If I rest any longer, I'll just go home.

Hahaha

The scholar's family harvested three baskets in one morning.

I thought the space next to me was empty.

They also got a share.

The old man and the eldest son really worked hard all morning.

The key to farm work is meticulousness

I harvest slowly so as not to waste a single grain.

The scholar was indeed meticulous.

Cutting one row can leave half a row untouched.

Hahaha

The village is no longer habitable.

If it really doesn't work

Go back to the county town to borrow money from the school

It's better than being laughed at.

But Dad won't let us go.

Always able to find a way

An autumn harvest

The eldest son was either dizzy or fell down.

If you can't do it, just pay someone to do it.

Stop making sarcastic remarks

Dad always does this

The whole family's children were involved in the accident.

When it came to working and earning money, only the eldest brother was considered a biological son.

The bone is broken.

Ankle fracture

At least three months of bed rest

Cannot touch the ground

I'm only 70% sure I'll stay in the village.

A lame girl

Even with excellent embroidery skills, it's hard to find a good marriage partner.

Dad needs to find a car to take Ruxin to the county town.

How much money does it cost to treat injuries in the county town?

No matter how expensive, it must be treated.

Ruxin is your own granddaughter.

The village doctor is 70% sure.

70% is already very high

Why waste money?

Who will be responsible if I become lame in the future?

Father, please save Ruxin.

She's not engaged yet.

He really became a cripple

His life was ruined

It's not that we won't save them

The family really had no money.

Now the village is being treated

The doctor also said he was 70% sure.

The house in the county town is still there

You can borrow some silver first.

You haven't even figured out how your house was burgled.

They also want to mortgage the house.

If the house is gone too

Where does your family live?

70% is enough

If it weren't for my granddaughter

I even want to get fewer doses of medicine.

I truly regret marrying into the Zhao family.

None of you care about me

If I really become lame

I'll die so you can see.

What a nice child

You taught me to the point of wanting to die and then I smashed the bowl.

You'll have to pay for it yourself.

If you hadn't forced him to cook

Will he fall?

Another stubble

You should go back to your parents' home.

Ruxin was raised by the Zhao family.

No need for you to worry.

If she is truly divorced and sent back to her parents' home

Not only do I have nowhere to go

The daughter will be completely left without care.

Wow!

1, 2, 3

This broken one is for Dad to eat.

Why should I get all the broken ones?

Because you have a large appetite and are not picky about food.

The old house is undergoing autumn harvest.

We eat well every day

Won't it be too eye-catching?

Well, with the door closed, who would know?

The money we earned

Why can't I eat it?

Hahaha

Was he just passing by, or was someone watching him?

I just saw the village chief and Liu Shunzi with my own eyes.

Pushing a cart covered with leaves into the Zhao family's house.

The car was empty when I came out.

The third son preferred to help outsiders make money.

He didn't even bring his second brother.

I want to see what kind of business they're really hiding.

I went to my third brother's house again.

Did you see anything?

The village chief and Shunzi delivered goods by cart at night.

The basket was covered tightly.

The car was full when we went in.

When the car came out

The third brother must have some business to do.

They brought the village chief and the Liu family.

But he deliberately didn't bring his second brother.

Go and find out.

Asking him directly will only get me yelled at.

First, you need to see clearly what is being delivered.

Talk to him again

The village chief's family, however, made money from three houses.

On what grounds?

Download more

I didn't eat enough last night.

You ate three bowls and still weren't full.

Aunt

Someone has been watching your house from behind the wall these past two nights.

I saw it clearly last night.

It's Uncle Zhao.

He watched the village chief enter.

I followed them for a while longer.

Why is he staring at me?

Has their gourd business been discovered?

Thank you for reminding me.

My uncle's family is in trouble now.

I won't invite you to dinner.

One

My daughter had an accident.

Something terrible has happened.

His father had an accident.

The second son is always peering over our wall.

They are checking what the village chief and his team brought.

Isn't this just a matter of time?

The village is so small

Several families did not go for the autumn harvest.

They always bring their carts at night.

Who can't see the problem?

What if he finds out that the gourd can be sold for money?

He then turned around and told the old house and the whole village.

Notify all suppliers today.

Delivery changed to late at night

Don't go through the village, stay on the right road.

The current inventory at home is enough for the restaurant's orders.

Crabs are almost out of season.

Local acquisitions can be terminated early.

Such a profitable business

Stop when you want

First, keep the raw material secret.

We'll find another place to collect it next year.

Known to the whole village

Everyone rushed forward

Nobody makes money

Where do we go after we stop?

Sell ​​off the inventory

First, go to the nearby county town to buy food and winter supplies.

If time is sufficient

Let's go to the prefectural city again.

I haven't been to the prefectural city yet.

I heard it was brightly lit at night.

Several times larger than the county town

The last batch of goods will still be accepted.

But all of them were changed to the middle of the night.

Stop after collecting

They only told the public that they no longer wanted the restaurant.

No one can mention being followed.

If my second brother asks...

Pretending to be stupid

He has no evidence.

Could they possibly break in and search?

We'll figure something out next year.

Don't block your path for short-term gains.

There is enough crab sauce available to continue selling for several months.

Live crabs in the space can be processed at any time.

After the acquisition

Rent a mule cart

First go to the prefectural city

Purchase in several more county towns

Grain, cotton, salt and medicinal herbs

Tell Xiao Lei next door again.

Ask him to keep an eye on the house

The farthest I've ever been in my life is a county town.

I've never actually gone out to travel.

Oh

Look, I'm about to overtake you!

Slow down, don't hurt yourself.

Jiadong, look at your mother, don't close your eyes.

Go and get a doctor

Anyone with a car, please bring it over quickly.

The wound is too deep, don't let him...

It's clear that I can only temporarily stop the bleeding from the bone.

Send him to the county clinic immediately

See if I can save my arm

The sooner the better

Does anyone have a car they can lend me?

Let's go first, Dad.

Hurry up and bring the silver to catch up.

We really have no money left.

Clinics are places that devour people without spitting out the bones.

Can't I just pay you back?

No money

Why should they save people?

The third wife's life is so prosperous now

We went to the third house to borrow money.

Jia Dong injured the uncle while harvesting wheat.

You need to help.

What kind of person is he?

It has already been sent to the county town.

No money at home

Take 20 taels as emergency relief.

I only have 5 taels of silver.

The rest was used to pay for the goods and materials.

Five taels can be borrowed

But it needs to be written clearly.

It was lent to my uncle to treat Zhao Jiadong's injuries.

It will be returned by my uncle later.

Please have the village chief and the uncles present as witnesses.

Even brothers need to write an IOU for money saved in their own lives.

Only close brothers should settle accounts clearly.

My elder brother has a house in the county town.

In addition to teaching income

Five taels is not something I can't pay back.

I have no choice but to press my fingerprint on behalf of my eldest son.

These copper coins are for Dad's carriage ride.

Don't walk, saving lives is the priority.

The third son who once left with nothing

Now he's the only one in the family.

People who can afford to save lives

Zhao Xiucai owns a house in the county town

There's also the teacher's salary.

Why is it always the third brother who gets blamed when something goes wrong?

The third son didn't get a single acre of land from his family.

He was still willing to lend five taels.

That's already generous enough.

I hope the child's hand can be saved.

Saving lives is one thing

Uncle must repay these five taels.

Otherwise, if there's a first time, there will be a second.

Zhao Xiuguan has a residence and a notarized document.

His own son was treated for his injuries but had to ask for help from others.

The younger brother, who left with nothing, borrowed money.

Scholars know how to do accounting

He was reluctant to spend his own money

The younger brother's money is naturally easier to use.

In the past, I believed that family scandals should not be aired in public.

Now I just feel that the truth should have been revealed to everyone long ago.

Use the best wound medicine and blood-tonifying herbs

5 liang is just the beginning

Treat all

Less than ten taels is not enough

You can sell things in the courtyard.

But the house had already been emptied.

Please, Dad, keep raising some money.

Jia Dong is your nephew.

We can't just stand by and do nothing.

First, take out your savings.

The eldest brother's son is getting medical treatment

Why am I being asked to pay again?

We're family, so let's not talk like strangers.

When the third brother suffered

You say he has no sons and therefore no descendants?

When my older brother had the accident

They are family

Do you even believe what you're saying, Dad?

This is my child's school money.

My older brother has a house

If you really don't have money, you can sell your house.

I worked myself to the bone and saved up a few taels.

We can't withstand this kind of turmoil from his family.

Okay, okay, you all want to follow the example of the Three Kingdoms and divide the family into three branches.

They all want to separate.

This family should fall apart.

Toilet

Climb down by yourself

The whole family is harvesting autumn crops.

Who has time to serve you?

None of the members of the first wife's family are easy to deal with.

My daughter fell

Daughter-in-law fainted

The son cut his arm again.

All the work in the fields fell on our shoulders.

They lost money because they didn't earn enough.

If this continues...

I can't hold on any longer.

The more you do this, the more you need to...

Figure out what kind of business the third brother is doing.

Well

Head of household

When I'm tired, I lie down for a while.

Don't go to my third brother's house tonight.

The work in the fields depends entirely on us.

I'm worried you'll ruin your health.

If we don't keep an eye on the eldest brother's family, it'll be a bottomless pit.

Even if you know what your third brother is doing

I don't have the energy to get involved.

The restaurant doesn't need the goods for the time being.

Such a good business

Stop when you want

I really can't bear to part with it.

We'll try to find a new solution next year.

Some seeds should be left in the nearby muddy land.

Cannot be cut all at once

How many taels did the Liu family earn?

100 taels

My good brother didn't fail to help you make money.

The village chief and the Song family earned more than they did.

Several poor families because of this business

They all had money for winter and to buy land.

Is anyone there?

In the past, when Zhao Xiaoyu was starving and sold...

I just feel that the third wife's life is cheap.

Now I have no one to take care of me.

Only then did I understand what despair tasted like.

If there really is no money at home

Will my grandparents sell me too?

Now I understand why Zhao Xiaoyu...

They'd rather die than accept their fate.

That concludes this year's acquisitions.

Tomorrow, I will rent a mule cart.

Let's go to the prefectural city for a few days first.

Buy grain, cloth, cotton, and medicinal herbs along the way.

What to do at home?

Entrusting Xiao Lei and his grandson to take care of

Xiaoyu put all the valuables into her Qiankun bag.

Go to the prefectural city

Do you have candied hawthorns in Fucheng?

It's not just candied hawthorn.

There are also pastries and lanterns you've never seen before.

Look slowly, don't stick your head out.

Does anyone know where to find cheap grain in the prefectural city?

Where can I find a full range of fabrics?

I'll write them all down.

Let's not calculate money today.

Eat whenever you want

The variety of jade artifacts in the prefectural city is greater than that in the county town.

The reserves of grain and cloth were also plentiful.

This place is not only suitable for buying goods

It is also possible to find the jade needed for space upgrades.

The next few days

We purchased rice and flour in batches.

Coarse grains, salt, cotton, cloth, candles

Each batch purchased was given to the merchant

Delivered to a rented, secluded courtyard

I have all the income space

We keep 200 taels of cash for emergencies.

Replace the rest with other items.

Silver can't be eaten or worn.

When something really happens

Food is life.

Haha, this year's grain harvest is abundant.

There are so many goods on the street.

How could you not be able to buy something with money?

Buy as much as you can now.

What if in the future, even with silver, we can't buy food?

Crow's mouth, come eat!

This gate is too dilapidated.

Come here quickly.

father

Take another detour along the river before heading back.

River gourds are almost gone.

We'll accept whatever amount we can.

After Cheng got home, he heated the wall.

Nobody went out.

Enjoy a comfortable winter hibernation

Jiadong is your son

Why should your whole family sell their bodies to cover your losses?

You sold your house in the county town to save your son.

The house cannot be sold

Where will we live if we sell it?

The wound reopened

Hemostasis and dressing change are necessary.

The previous medical bills haven't been settled yet.

Now another one has been added.

Da Yong should go ask the big tree for it.

They are living a prosperous life now.

It's definitely not a problem for them to have that much money.

The new house has been locked for several days in a row.

The third brother is definitely deliberately avoiding us.

Liu Shunzi said they went out to play.

Nobody knows when he'll be back.

Why

Daiyuu forbids the sale of Miyazaki.

Da Wen refused to move the house.

But the clinic is pressing for payment and won't wait.

Once a house is sold, it can never be bought back.

Sell ​​two mu of land first

Waiting for the third son to return to the village

Make him pay to redeem it

All my trips to the county town have been for business.

He can't even afford to buy a steamed bun, yet he's so...

I took my wife and daughter on a trip for more than a month.

They are all sons of the same family

Why should I work myself to death?

He lived like a lord.

I'm no longer willing to work for the first wife's family.

I'm not washing Zhao Ruxin's dirty clothes anymore.

I am not her mother

Whoever gave birth to her will come back to take care of her.

The eldest son has money and lives in the county town.

We can't just abandon our daughter.

The second wife can't just completely abandon her responsibilities, can she?

Zhao Ruxin is such a troublemaker.

Da Wen and Jia Qiang stayed in the city.

One who wants to teach

One wanted to steal the book

The father and son took away their bedding and food.

I plan to return to the village after school breaks.

But I have to go back and see Ruxin.

My dear daughter, you deserve to kneel!

Mom, I'm finally not itchy anymore.

You are the treasure your mother holds in her hands

How dare they treat you like an animal?

My sister-in-law is back!

Tomorrow we'll each do half the work.

Mother Ruxin's mattress was infested with worms.

The urinal was full.

Is this how you take care of your granddaughter?

How could a little girl be so precious?

It's good enough that I'm alive.

You feel sorry for yourself and take care of yourself.

He is also a child of the Zhao family.

A money-losing product is a money-losing product.

Elders serving younger generations

Which family has this rule?

If you're not satisfied, take him away.

I really can't stay in this house anymore.

Dad, she's my daughter.

My heart aches.

Come back a few days later

The person may be gone.

ah

The second son's family

Go and get a doctor

Go cook.

La la la

Don't bother with what you've already ordered.

The Zhao family is even more ruthless to their own people than to outsiders.

Your mother will take care of you from now on.

Take good care of yourself

Li gave Zhao Ruxin and

Zhao Jiadong boiled one egg each

knew

father

The eldest brother's two children got eggs to eat when they were injured.

My four children are also extremely thin.

Why not a single one?

At this time you also need to compare

When there is money at home

I've never seen you show any affection for my child.

All the good stuff went into the eldest son's mouth.

Now you want me to shut up?

The second son didn't just fight over eggs.

Instead, they're forcing me to propose a separation of the family first.

They are also your own grandsons.

These four eggs today

You understand the score.

One egg, one penny

Four a day is four coins.

Our home can't withstand such mistreatment.

The mother couldn't bear to give it to her grandson.

But he was willing to sell his land to support his elder brother's family.

Who exactly is a member of the Zhao family?

The two wounded men in the main house each received two eggs daily.

The second wife has four children, two of whom are also children.

You divide it yourself

Four eggs a day

That is four coins

Neither of us wanted to eat it.

Where do they get such a big face?

Have a meal

As long as I don't cause trouble

The father would never give the second wife any benefits on his own initiative.

Uncle Liu only sweeps the yard.

I never went into the locked room.

You really know how to do things properly.

I went to fetch water.

Your mother wiped the house

A light rain fell on the pear blossoms as they played in the yard.

Come to my house for dinner tonight.

We're having a welcome dinner for you.

I won't go to your house because it's too close to the old house.

I just got back and they delivered it to my door.

The old man is determined to catch me.

You guessed right!

Zhao Jiadan didn't have enough money for his medicine.

The old man is looking for you everywhere.

In the end, they even sold two acres of land.

I heard him say

When you come back, I'll call you Uncle.

Why not sell the older brother's house in the county town?

Don't you know whose side your dad has?

The old house is noisy from morning till night now.

I can't sleep well even if there's a wall between my house and mine.

I really can't stand it

Your family has been living here for a few months

There is a heated wall in the front yard

Fire by yourself

Nobody gets in anyone's way

My sister-in-law and I were doing needlework at the same time.

The children also have companions

You just moved into your new house

What's going on with my whole family moving here?

Our most difficult time

Uncle Liu didn't ask whether it was right or wrong.

They took us straight home.

Now I'm just borrowing the front yard to stay for a few months.

Not disturbing

You bring your own food.

We each cook our own meals.

Visit each other if you want to chat

If you don't want to talk, just close the door and live your life.

His father

Have we forgotten about cutting firewood for winter?

It's too late to cut now.

Tomorrow's announcement

Two coins for a load of firewood

Collect a few more houses

It won't burn out this year.

Continue next year

You two, father and daughter, want to hoard things whenever you see them.

Tomorrow my child and I will peel crabs indoors.

You collect the firewood yourself

So that your dad won't come and cause trouble.

My third brother is back.

They still collect firewood in the village for two coins a day.

Having money but not knowing how to help the family

They even threw money outside.

Firewood won't chop itself.

If all else fails, just let us take care of it.

Even a single meal for a penny is enough to attract people to deliver it.

Old man, where are you going?

Go ask that spendthrift son.

Does he still consider this family?

What I least want to do now

She was caught between her father and her third brother.

Did you get into some trouble, sir?

I'm thinking about whether to give the three plants to my third son.

That's my own son.

Why should I give it away?

Sanzhu already has memories.

Do you know who your biological parents are?

After being adopted, the third son provided him with food and clothing.

He will grow up and inherit the mansion and money

In the end, it was still our son.

But the third son spends money like this.

How much will be left after death?

snort

Even if the money is gone

That large house with blue bricks is also there.

More importantly, let the three pillars infiltrate.

Find out exactly how they made their money.

The third son is rich.

He could also take a concubine and have a son.

He had a good relationship with the Song family.

No one in the village is taking a concubine.

The wealthier you are, the more you value the ancestral worship.

He will definitely need our son in the end.

The third son's family business should not be allowed to fall into the hands of outsiders.

Your father is here to scold you.

Should I wear another padded jacket?

In case of being beaten

It can also be thicker

Do I look like someone anyone could beat up?

Where did you go?

More than a month away from home

I didn't even tell my parents.

Seeing everyone busy with the autumn harvest

I took my wife and daughter out for a walk.

So many years

They had never traveled far from home.

Your mother and I have suffered our whole lives.

I haven't been to the county town many times.

You know how to enjoy life.

They even spent money to buy firewood when they got back.

My own money

Make my wife and daughter more comfortable

Did it bother anyone?

The eldest and second eldest are your real brothers.

It's not good if one person is good.

Brothers help each other

You'll only have someone to care for you when you're old.

If I fall today

Will my dad sell the land to save me?

My eldest and second eldest brothers will protect my wife and daughters.

Or should we turn around and drive them away?

Occupy this house

How could a family do such a thing?

You don't need to collect firewood from outside.

Handed over to Lao Zhai

One sentence, one unit

Someone will still deliver it.

The rest can supplement household income

I have already received two coins.

The villagers worked hard to chop firewood

I can't lower the price just to save a penny.

My family sold two acres of land.

Go and pay the money to redeem it.

Your mother and I have no land.

What to eat next

Is the field the one I want to sell?

Do you want the money in my hands?

Who spent the money?

Whom do you need to contact?

Your older brother's house was robbed and he has no money.

If you don't have money, sell your house in the county town.

How can someone owe their own father money for retirement?

The reason why you should live in a big house

My older brother has been teaching for many years

Taking the imperial examinations and using the money from home for travel expenses

All that studying has gone to waste.

You just stood by and watched your parents suffer.

Dad, I'm different from my older brother.

If I encounter misfortune

Nobody will sell my land.

I can only bear it myself

He now owns a house.

With hands and feet

Why should I pay off his debts?

You paid silver to redeem the land.

The land still belongs to the Zhao family.

When you get old, your nephew will take care of you.

My two daughters can take care of me.

Besides, my second brother hasn't separated from the family yet.

Did he get a share of the older brother's house in the county town?

If you really love your son

Why does it only hurt one person?

Nobody's money comes from thin air.

You should find the person who actually owes the debt to redeem it.

Did you plan to split up the family property all along?

So we can detach ourselves and enjoy our freedom.

It's not that you're afraid I'll take advantage of my older brother.

Did you manage to get rid of me before his exam?

Back then, I didn't even have a place to live.

If it weren't for Shunzi taking them in

The whole family could only sleep on broken wooden planks.

Are you really so heartless?

father

Even if you're pretending to faint, you should at least close your eyes first.

Light rain, come out quickly.

Your grandpa fainted.

Since he really fainted

Only acupuncture at the pain point can save lives

Ouch

Dad, you're finally awake!

It's all my brother's fault for not selling the house.

Forcing you to sell your land

Wait for him to come back

I'll teach this unfilial son a lesson on your behalf.

Grandpa just left like that.

Why

I have so much to say, but I haven't said it yet!

Why should I?

I also took care of the wounded.

I also do the laundry.

It's fair that you do the laundry and I cook, right?

Your child is the one waiting to be served.

Why should I let others take care of me?

What's it like when you cook?

Don't you know that yourself?

Shut up!

If you keep arguing, we'll all get out.

Wang was only responsible for taking care of the two wounded.

The remaining work is shared by several rooms.

Dad, let's stock up on another room.

What if it's not enough?

Then let's stock up on two more houses.

Firewood won't spoil.

It won't burn out this year.

Continue using it next year

One

Other families are worried about running out of food.

You two practically want to fill the entire yard!

Only when you have enough things will you feel at ease.

Besides, Shunzi's family would need to burn down several more houses if they moved in.

Mother waited for the coldest time

Then you'll know how dear these firewood pieces are.

I didn't mean to bother you.

But the child just couldn't take it.

I'm here to pick you up.

Don't just take the bedding

He brought all the grain, pots and pans, and money.

Grain was also moved

It's too much of a hassle to go back and forth.

My dad's house was robbed; not even a broken broom was left.

Your whole family is not here.

Don't leave any valuables behind.

You've hidden it well enough.

Even mice can't be found

I wouldn't feel at ease even if it were deeper.

The Zhao family was burglarized twice

Who knows if the thief will target us?

You're pretending to be stupid because your own father wants to move into a new house.

An outsider wants to stay

You came to pick me up in person.

It was because I had nowhere to live after we separated from the family.

Shunzi didn't say a single unnecessary word.

They took our whole family back directly.

I agreed at the time

I'll definitely invite him to stay for a while after the new house is built.

Who told you to walk like you're having your first child?

We didn't kick you out.

Mother, have you forgotten that you told me to take my wife and daughters and get out of here immediately?

Don't stay at home and take advantage of others.

I still owe Shunzi a favor.

How is it wrong?

I am your mother

You still dare to settle scores with me later?

You'd rather let outsiders stay.

They don't even let their own parents live there.

They just resent us.

That's unfilial.

How to write a family division document?

I will do it.

The filial piety tribute should not be less than a penny.

Should not have been released

Nobody can extort money from you.

Our family worked like slaves in the old house.

They can't even get a decent meal.

The idea of ​​dividing the family property was proposed by my parents and the clan chief, not by me.

If there is no straight

My wife and daughter don't even have a place to shelter from the wind.

Your eldest and second eldest brothers are your real brothers.

My older brother lives in a big house in the county town.

Eat white rice and white flour

There are servants to serve you

Did you stay for a day?

You don't scold him

Why are you staring at me every day?

My older brother teaches at the school.

Does your family know?

He did not go to the prefectural city to take the exam.

But I got fewer exam discs

Does your family know?

Does the second brother get a share of the house in the county town?

Other villages are destitute

All the good things in the house were given to his second brother.

You've been suffering for over a decade.

It's time to be more careful.

Dad is waiting for me to bring him New Year's gifts.

If my older brother won't buy you meat, I will.

Zhao Dashu is truly grateful and righteous.

Yes, the real ingrate is Zhao Dawen.

The third child's most difficult time

The Liu family provided them with a house and food.

What's wrong with them giving back now?

Zhao Xiucai eats the whole family

Family Residents

Making money but hiding it

Even her own mother wouldn't let her into the city.

Who can compare to him in terms of filial impiety?

So what if I love the eldest brother?

The third son has money but doesn't help his family.

All they know is how to throw money away.

He deserves to be struck by lightning.

Spewing filth

They still think the Zhao family hasn't completely lost face?

Goodbye

I must teach you today.

When should I speak?

When should I shut up?

I have no idea what I really am.

What angered me wasn't who he insulted.

Instead, he took me for many years

The facade of dignity that had been maintained was completely torn apart.

He was the one who told me to make a scene.

Why should it all be my fault in the end?

What did I say wrong again?

I really regret marrying someone who only knows how to...

A wife who throws tantrums without knowing the occasion

I hate her even more for ruining the Zhao family's reputation.

Entering this room

I don't even want to go out with girls.

Next year, my family will also buy a plot of land next door to build a heated wall.

Let's continue to be companions.

When you build a house

I used to cook for you.

Mother, do you not need to cover yourself with all your clothes tonight?

Need not

I won't wake up from the cold anymore.

Hahaha

The mansion finally came alive.

Let's go cook.

Make so much meat

We've almost emptied our savings.

Auntie, didn't you see there's still meat piled up inside?

Eating it doesn't mean it's wasted.

Brother, you're living the life you deserve now!

Don't make the same mistake again.

None of the people in the old house truly care about you.

He's right.

Especially my dad

The older you get, the more shameless you become.

Second brother looks honest

They're quite cunning.

Following you this year

I earned more money than I ever dared to dream of in my entire life.

My wife and I often dig out silver ingots in the middle of the night.

bite one by one

It's definitely not a dream.

Hahaha

You can still bite silver?

My family's money belongs to Xiaoyu.

My wife suspected I was dreaming, so she pinched me.

My waist is still bruised.

Hahaha

Besides parents

You're the only one in my life who's ever truly been willing to lend me a hand.

If you need anything in the future

Brother, I'll be the first one there.

Stop saying mushy things

You build a house next year

I was the first one to go.

Let's both be well from now on.

Nobody should ever live like that again.

days when even cornbread couldn't fill our stomachs

The uncle had an accident.

Uncle, your older brother is back.

He also brought an 18-year-old woman.

They said it was a concubine.

The sister-in-law was divorced

It wasn't said that both were wives.

The old house is already in an uproar.

She's almost 18 and could be his daughter.

He could do it.

It has nothing to do with us

The dumplings at home are almost cooked.

I'll bring you two bowls from the front yard in a bit.

I take care of the elderly and injured children in the village.

live frugally

I worry about your life in the city every day.

But now you've brought back a young woman.

She was also given the same status as a wife.

I'll take care of your home and raise your children.

This is how you treat me?

Look at you now, you've become such a shrew.

Where is the dignity of a scholar's wife?

Xiao Hongrou is sensible.

You know it's not easy for me to live alone in the city.

Injured for several months

Father never came back to visit.

But he has the money and the inclination to support other women.

When my leg broke, Dad

You never came to see me.

Schools cannot function without people

I did it all for this family.

snort

For this family

Then he brought other women back and trampled on me.

My years of cultivating the dignified image of a scholar's wife

It all became a joke.

The eldest son brought back an extra person.

They were still eating the palace's grain.

I don't want to raise them anymore.

Big Brother

The family even had to sell land to pay for medicine.

You still have the leisure to marry a concubine?

I do not oppose men taking concubines.

But Xu Xiaohong's eyes darted around.

Dislike the old house

Unlike people who can manage a household.

Such a woman is best left as a fling.

Making someone a concubine will only cause trouble in the family.

The scholar's family was so poor

The room was as cold as an icebox.

There wasn't even a speck of oil on the table.

I thought that following Zhao Dawen would bring me a decent life.

Did I choose the wrong person?

Many men in the village can't find a wife.

My scholar son suddenly has two

The new one is still an 18-year-old virgin.

This will be your home from now on.

I am your mother

Call me "Mother"

daughter

First visit

The gift your mother gave you

Thank you, Mother, I'm still alive.

The Zhao family then acknowledged another daughter-in-law in front of him.

This woman must not remain in the Zhao family.

The eldest brother sent the person back.

Wang will take care of your whole family.

The Zhao family cannot do anything to betray the Wang family.

Xiaohong and I have already completed our wedding ceremony.

Parents are gone

What kind of shrine do you worship?

No marriage certificate

No witnesses

Cannot be counted

Xiao Hong is young

Sweet-talking and sensible

Let's keep her.

Such a woman

Even being a concubine is not secure

Xiaohong is pregnant with my child.

We'll raise your child at home.

Serving parents

You're living a life of pleasure and debauchery in the city.

I'm a man in the city.

Do laundry and cook

Taking care of children

Do you know how difficult it is?

Xiao Hong doesn't care about money.

I just feel sorry for myself.

Actively sharing my worries

Big brother is really capable.

People started giving me money as soon as I stepped out the door.

But this new sister-in-law

Could he be from a brothel?

She did indeed spend time in a brothel.

But he kept claiming to me that he had never taken clients.

What nonsense!

Your sister-in-law is completely innocent.

She's carrying the Zhao family's child.

Is she innocent?

The eldest brother knows best.

Anyway, the family has to sell the land to get money.

One more mouth

Another child

Whoever raises it is responsible for it.

You have humiliated me like this.

I don't want to live anymore

If Dad drives Xiaohong away

I then walked with her.

I will never go back to this house again.

He raised a scholar through frugality.

He actually forced his father to sever ties with his family for the sake of a woman of unknown origin.

This kind of woman leaves

The Zhao family will inevitably face turmoil sooner or later.

If you insist on going your own way

I couldn't persuade her.

Later, he hit a wall.

Don't blame anyone for not reminding you.

Try to avoid getting angry, otherwise your liver fire will flare up again.

He'll really have a stroke sooner or later.

It's hard to go from extravagance to frugality.

Now there are warm houses

Who would want to come back and freeze?

My uncle is quite lucky with women.

How dare you bring such a young woman home?

Just wait, there'll be plenty of trouble at this old house later.

It's the children who suffer.

Their parents don't care.

Mother, don't be so kind.

That's what a man should be like.

Tall, strong, and rich

But he only has one unromantic woman by his side.

Brother Wen

Where does your third brother live?

The best house at the end of the village has heated walls.

Much more comfortable than here

Since we are family

Why doesn't he invite his parents and elder brother and sister-in-law to live with him?

Even if my third brother doesn't let us stay

We should bring our parents over.

You are the eldest brother

He should be advised to be filial.

The family lived together

They also looked out for each other.

Saying old people

But all I really want is to live in a warm house.

Find another opportunity to get closer to Zhao Dashu

Compared to the frail, poor, and shabby Zhao Dawen in front of him

I prefer tall and strong men.

A man with money and a house

Both husband and wife are away.

This is my house.

No one dared to come in.

I will bear your children.

I will take care of your parents

You humiliated me like this in front of me.

Everyone go inside; no one is allowed to listen in the courtyard.

Sister-in-law, you should rest.

I'll cook today's meal.

daughter

Family misfortune

His father had just collapsed

They were making a scene in the house.

Hey hey

Second sister-in-law, this is the first time I've entered your home.

Why is this all you're eating for dinner?

Eat what you like

If you're not going to eat, then get out.

The family has to sell their land to get money.

Where will you get the meat?

Xiao Hong's mother couldn't get used to eating coarse grains.

If we don't try to do something good...

You feel sorry for her because she can't get used to the food.

How can you not feel sorry for your own father who was angered to the point of collapse?

We've loved you for decades

Not even as good as a woman I just met

Father told my eldest brother to take his woman back to the county town.

So many children in the family

He made that commotion

Did they turn the old house into a brothel?

It's freezing cold outside.

You want them to leave now?

If he doesn't leave, I'll take my wife and children with me.

It's better to freeze to death outside than for a child to hear this every day.

Ru Xin's leg is almost healed.

Jia Dong can also take a car

The first wife has no reason to continue lingering.

It's too late tonight.

Let them clean up tomorrow.

Why

Either send Xu Xiaohong away

Either all of you from the eldest branch of the family go back to the county town.

Dad, this is my home.

The school is on holiday.

Our family of six returned to the city with no income. What will we eat?

When you did that kind of shameful thing

Why didn't you think this was the whole family's home?

You shameless

I still have a sense of shame.

I wanted to move into a three-bedroom warm house

I didn't expect that I would only be back in the village for one day.

Instead, they will be evicted from the old house.

I am the eldest son of the Zhao family.

No one can kick me out

Then let's send the woman you brought back away first.

Xiao Hong is young.

I will tell her to behave herself in the future.

The old house is so cold

Why don't you go and talk to the third brother?

Let our whole family stay at his house for a few months

One

I couldn't even get into his house.

You want to bring this woman in and get out of here?

Ah Yong, why don't you go and say it?

Go by yourself.

I have no right to speak up for you.

We will come to your door in person.

You are the eldest brother

My third brother can't just kick you out.

Let him hit a wall once

It's good to know I don't have that much of a face.

I rubbed him for a few days

When he lost his human form

Great literature is naturally not rare.

How did you end up living here?

This is the third family.

What right do you, an outsider, have to live here?

Move out quickly

The big tree invited me here.

It's not up to you to decide.

The third son drove the Liu family out.

Bring your parents over first.

Your new sister-in-law and I will be staying here today.

Could you help us go back and move our luggage?

This is my home

I can let whoever wants to live here.

The family division agreement clearly states...

Parents follow you

You have a house in your county town.

Why not take them to the county town?

That's what a man should be like.

Grand house

He's also better than Zhao Dawen.

I am your older brother

I can't even enter your house.

Regular guests can enter

Some cannot enter

Let go of me, you dare to lay a hand on your elder brother!

I'm just seeing the guests off.

Take care, brother.

Don't let your new wife get cold.

Third brother, how could you treat your own brother like this?

My sister-in-law worked hard to close the door.

Don't cause trouble in front of other people's houses.

Some people do have a place to live

It's because you take yourself too seriously.

Did Brother Wen and Third Brother misunderstand you?

So many empty rooms

Why would you rather give it to an outsider?

He was jealous of my academic performance since I was a child.

Now I've earned a few taels of silver.

He didn't even know his own surname.

What Brother Wen said is

Just now, I was ashamed

It was clearly Zhao Dawen.

The first wife just brought that 18-year-old woman over.

Want to move into our house

They didn't even bring bedding.

He's still waiting for us to help him move.

Let him step through the door today

The entire old house can be moved here tomorrow.

Therefore, we cannot retreat even a single step.

If they retreat even once, they'll start treating this house as belonging to the Zhao family.

They will come again later

No one is allowed to open the door alone.

Is it easy to get into the third brother's door?

Xu Xiaohong quickly got up to make ginger soup for Da Wen.

If he catches a cold

I skinned you alive.

I'm freezing too.

Why only care about him?

Little Red is also cold

Let her warm up first

I don't drink ginger soup

Why do Brother Wen and his third brother dislike you so much?

Is it because of me?

He was a troublemaker from a young age.

I've never liked it

It was clearly Uncle Zhao who looked down on him.

They won't even let me in the door.

You are the eldest brother

He needs to be properly taught.

Brothers fighting like this

Outsiders will only laugh.

I need to figure out how to get around Zhao Dawen.

Approaching Zhao Dashu

The sun is shining on my backside

Get up and cook!

Which new bride is served by her mother-in-law?

Da Wen, you know

I haven't done much manual labor.

You go cook a meal first.

It's just cooking, isn't it?

dawdling

I thought you died inside.

All she does is crawl into men's beds all day

Do they really think the Zhao family is a brothel?

Niang Xiaohong has already opened the door.

Why did you hit someone again?

Jin Teng then cooked for her.

You, a mere scholar, are working in the kitchen?

It would be even more embarrassing if it got out.

You're the most capable troublemaker.

I'll see how long he can hold out.

He said he would protect me

He wouldn't dare utter a sound if something really happened.

It's no wonder that a man like that can be relied upon for a lifetime.

What's the use of this strange thing?

Barbecue Dad

Go get the pork belly

Lamb, beef ribs, and chicken pieces

I'm preparing eggplant and green beans with wine.

Green pepper, carp, minced garlic, and seasonings

Haha, I'll go call Shunzi's family.

Paired with fine wine today

We ate to our hearts' content.

What new gadgets are they up to now?

A chicken can be chopped up and roasted

Eggplant can also be baked

What are you guys up to now?

Don't ask yet, you'll know once you've tried it.

Haha, a rare item I brought back from the capital city.

Everyone should try it today.

Such an expensive item

You can save it and eat it slowly.

How could we possibly ruin our family's life?

Things you buy are meant to go into your stomach.

Who leaves today?

That's really disrespecting my father.

Don't be shy.

Who ate the least today?

I'm not going to argue with anyone.

Lamb and beef aren't just for Dad.

Let's eat together and then decline.

Burning is what's wasteful.

I bought quite a lot from the prefectural city.

It's not just this one meal left.

Shunzi, if you keep being so polite, you're treating me like an outsider.

Hahaha

Sister Chunmiao's fish is even more fragrant than stewed fish.

Hahaha

So much oil has all dripped away.

Isn't the point of eating meat to get some oil and fat?

We roasted it over a fire to bring out the aroma.

The dipping sauce also contains lard, so it's not a bad deal.

I've lived this long

I never knew eggplant could be more fragrant than meat.

Come inside and soak your feet.

I can sleep in as late as I want tomorrow.

Mother, you really didn't call me?

You were too tired yesterday, get some more sleep.

Mom, let's make more dumplings and buns.

Income potential from steamed buns and dumplings

Take it whenever you don't feel like cooking.

Haha, I can't stand staying at home.

He Shunzi went to the village entrance to see what people were making.

A dog is chasing you, Dad.

More disgusting than a dog

The woman your uncle brought home

He ran into a group of men and ambushed me.

She cried and sobbed, saying that her parents and older brother missed her.

Tell me to go back to the old house

What did she want to do by talking to you alone?

The way he looked at me was so sticky.

Fortunately, Shunzi was there.

He just yelled at her and drove her away.

When we returned to the village

He's been keeping watch near our house again.

He fell into my arms when he saw me.

I dodged quickly

He plunged headfirst into the snowdrift.

Unable to get up for half a day

Shunzi grabbed me and ran

They dare to pounce on you in broad daylight

She can't even tell who her man is.

He must have a screw loose in his head.

You are not allowed to see him alone from now on.

You are also not allowed to wander around the old house anymore.

What would I do if I saw her?

I'm not like my older brother who's blinded by lust.

I have a wife

Two good daughters

I noticed that Xu Xiaohong's walking posture is different from that of ordinary people.

She mostly came from places of prostitution.

I finally had some money to play a few rounds at the village entrance.

Now they don't even dare to leave their doors.

My older brother used to not come back until the Chinese New Year.

It's really unlucky that I came back so early this year.

Why

The more you hide

I want you to kneel at my feet.

She didn't know

She went to the casino to ambush men.

The news will spread throughout the whole village in half a day.

None of the lords in the city can stop me.

Why should a peasant like me look down on me?

There is ample time

I'll make him bow his head sooner or later.

That was the concubine that Zhao Xiucai brought back.

What equal wife?

Isn't she just a concubine who steals someone else's man?

Wang takes care of the children at home.

She actually followed the man and enjoyed the good life.

Where have you been gallivanting off to again, you little slut?

Have the clothes been washed?

Have you cooked dinner?

Why should I do all the work by myself?

I was also born of parents.

They weren't sold to the Zhao family to be their servants.

The Wang and Li families disagreed.

Don't ask me to do it again.

The new bride dared to point her finger at her mother-in-law and curse.

I don't want to live anymore

Da Yong called Da Wen and his wife in.

Your wife just cursed your mother.

Didn't you hear?

Xiao Hong was right to scold him.

They are all daughters-in-law

Household chores should be shared among three people.

There's no reason to bet everything on her.

She also has to take care of me.

there is no time

Her life

Let Wang do it

I taught Zhao Dawen to say those things after I went back inside.

I've made up my mind.

Once the weather warms up, I will return to the city with Zhao Dawen.

At least I don't have to endure my mother-in-law's nagging every day.

He takes care of you

You have all four limbs.

Does it require someone to clean up after the feces and urine?

If you don't give an answer today

Then he took the whole family and rolled back to the county town.

The old house's fields and grain in the future

Don't even think about a single penny anymore.

Big brother, a man's word is his bond.

Weren't you just trying to protect your wife?

I can make Xu Xiaohong do less work.

But they cannot lose their father's money and food.

Dad, I was just confused for a moment.

Brother Wen

Hurry up and apologize to your mother.

Mother, I was young and didn't understand things.

I just talked nonsense.

You are very generous.

Don't hold it against me

I'll go do the laundry and cook now.

This woman can quickly lower her head in a fit of rage.

Flexible

Far more difficult to deal with than the nagging and complaining Wang Shi.

I admit defeat today.

But this debt

I will get it back one by one.

In the past, I finally managed to coax someone into buying my freedom.

He also hid a small amount of silver.

Finally, I met someone willing to marry me.

The scholar with a concubine found a long-term meal ticket

Who knew that Zhao Dawen was short of money?

The Zhao family was both poor and chaotic.

I'm still being bossed around by an old country woman.

The snow is so heavy

I'm a woman, I can't run away.

I'll leave when spring arrives and I've collected enough money.

Daring to talk back to one's mother-in-law

I'll go hungry today.

Let's see if you'll learn your lesson in the future.

What are you standing there for?

Hurry up and serve the rice.

Eat more

You're in for it tonight.

Are you deliberately trying to disgust me?

After placing another one, I went to sleep in the woodshed.

I have a stomach ache

I need to go to the outhouse.

One

The big article is coming out soon!

Mother couldn't hold it in any longer.

My legs are too weak to get up.

You go use the urinal

Don't come into my house lately.

Mom, I'm about to be suffocated by the stench!

If he continues to cause trouble after one night, please bear with it.

I then pushed the bucket towards him.

Ahhh

Take it to be washed clean

Dry it quickly

This is all the thick clothing I have.

You made this mess yourself.

Why should I wash?

You are the daughter-in-law

Not serving one's mother-in-law

I still want to eat Zhao's food.

I didn't expect the medicine to be so effective.

That despicable old Mrs. Sun

Serves you right

If I don't feel like cooking someday

Take it out and boil it.

Stir-fried vegetables can also be stored in buckets.

More convenient when going out

Busy for more than half a month

All the food is finally ready.

Xiaoyu, the thin wood shavings you requested are ready.

I drew numbers and patterns on it.

What is this?

Cards are more fun than cards.

Let's try it out the three of us after it's done.

Can I win money?

Of course, it only means that when all the copper coins are lost...

Don't blame me for not warning you.

The pattern is crooked

But nobody recognized what the proper form looked like.

I can't see the problem.

Dad, go call Uncle Liu so we can play Dou Dizhu (a card game).

Coin toss

In Dou Dizhu (a popular Chinese card game), the landlord is someone we can also fight against.

Landlord in the cards

If you lose, you only have to pay money.

They won't arrest you or put you in jail.

I'll bet on you first.

set1 bomb

I'll pay after I've finished playing set2.

Hey, let's play one more game!

One more game

Put the cards away.

The table needs to be set with food.

You and Pear Blossom eat first.

Let's play for another half an hour.

I'm not hungry.

I'm hungry, and I still need to grow taller.

How are we supposed to live without you?

The cards won't run away.

Eat first, then play.

I steamed a pot of meat buns

The three of you eat and fight at the same time

Don't other people's houses need to sleep? Go back home.

You go to sleep first, then I'll play a couple more rounds with the big tree.

I'm sleepy, I'll continue tomorrow.

A quick straight flush is already waiting.

If you keep urging me, I'll burn the cards.

Dad is just telling you to eat breakfast.

You can sleep slowly.

snort

Who will steam the buns?

You don't have time to go

I did this to relieve my boredom.

Why am I the busiest one in the end?

What did his father prepare for his parents?

Each piece of dark fabric

5 jin of pork

3 jin of mutton

Add two more jars of wine

The elderly couple had never eaten mutton in their lives.

It's perfect for nourishing your body when it's cold.

My father always complains about the old house.

When the festival truly arrives

He was still the most devoted of all his sons.

What about the elders from other clans?

Two pounds of meat and one fish per family

Prepare 4 portions

Not close

Once the proper etiquette is observed, it is considered acceptable.

Returning after delivering the gift

I can play a few more rounds tonight.

Ancestor worship tomorrow

If you write about a beautiful woman, she won't get up.

The clan chief can drive you out of the ancestral hall.

The important thing is to celebrate the holidays.

No one is allowed to play secretly.

Aren't you most annoyed by old houses?

Everything prepared was exactly what it should have been.

Separating from the family does not mean severing ties.

What is due should be given in full.

So that no one will try to shut me up with filial piety later.

First, we went to the homes of my great-grandfather, my second great-grandfather, and my two uncles.

After giving gifts to relatives

Finally, we went to the old house.

Zhao Laosunzhi

Even during the holidays, things don't stop.

Don't they get tired?

Parents

Tomorrow is the Winter Solstice

This is for you and Dad.

There are five catties of pork inside.

Three catties of mutton

Two pieces of cloth and two jars of wine

Lamb isn't cheap, is it?

Slippery roads in snowy weather

I'll go to town less often in the future.

I'm preparing two catties of meat and 50 coins for the ancestral worship.

Third brother, it's cold outside.

Have a sip of hot tea

My parents still have things to do at home

I'm going back now.

Go slowly on the way.

Unfaithful woman

Today I'll teach you the rules on behalf of the eldest brother.

ah

I was just bringing my third brother a bowl of water.

What do you want to do?

Acting provocatively right under my nose

Still dare to play innocent

I'll break your legs today.

Parents opened the door

Xiaohong is my wife.

You can't hit her.

It would be best to tear her face off.

Let's see what she'll use to seduce men in the future.

You can't even catch one person.

Disgraceful piece of trash

What happened to my parents?

What did Xu Xiaohong do to her mother?

The parents-in-law locked their daughter-in-law in the main room and chased after her, beating her.

He's really senile.

Mother, wake up

I didn't mean to.

Kick the door open

Older and sleepier

Don't squeeze with him

My mother didn't take a bath all winter.

I don't want to sleep with her

This is someone else's house.

Let's just endure it.

Doctor, I'd like to trouble you to take a look at my daughter, Ruxin.

How is her leg injury?

The bones have healed.

The problem stems from prolonged bed rest

I need to practice getting on the ground gradually in the future.

Why didn't Dad come?

Are you feeling unwell?

No longer old

It's safer to stay at home.

The third brother, Zhao Di, hadn't seen Xiao Yu for a long time.

I miss her.

How about letting her come to your house to play with Xiaoyu?

It's been a long time since we brothers got together.

Let's have a couple of drinks

Zhao Di used to curse Xiao Yu every day, calling her a brat.

They even made her do chores.

Why are the sisters suddenly so close now?

The child was too young to understand.

Now that I'm grown up

Knowing who is family

Dazhu, Erzhu, and Sanzhu also often talked about their younger uncle.

Second brother doesn't need to pretend.

We've never been able to play together since we were kids.

You and your older brother are the most compatible.

My older brother happens to be home right now.

You can take your time to reminisce.

I offered a way out.

He didn't accept it at all.

They wanted to send the three pillars in.

We need to find another way.

We brothers just don't get together often.

You're the one who misunderstood me.

When you are not home

I've always felt empty inside.

Li often talked about her third brother and sister-in-law.

There are too few people to do the work.

Do you want us to go back and be treated like slaves?

Dad just heard Uncle Liu come back and say Grandpa

Lock Xu Xiaohong up and beat her.

He's gone mad!

If anyone needs to be disciplined, it should be the mother who does it.

What kind of father-in-law chases after his daughter-in-law?

You went to deliver the gift yesterday

Has Xu Xiaohong tried to seduce you again?

He brought me a bowl of hot water, but I didn't take it.

They didn't even give it a second glance.

Why didn't you say so when you came back?

I did nothing.

What's there to say?

I'll definitely take you or Xiaoyu with me when I visit the old house next time.

I will not approach Xu Xiaohong alone again.

Mother is that kind of woman with high aspirations.

And unwilling to suffer

The old house rubbed her every day.

My uncle couldn't be kept at all.

They'll run away sooner or later.

It's not worth getting angry.

Daughter-in-law, eat more today.

No matter how young other women are, none are as good as you.

Eat your food

Let's stop talking about this.

Both have the surname Zhao

The third brother was eating meat and drinking in the warm room.

I couldn't even get a bite of oil.

What hope is there in such a life?

I never imagined in my life I could eat my fill and drink alcohol while hibernating in winter.

It's not cold inside.

Brother, thank you for letting our family come over.

Our family has enough to eat and wear.

It's all thanks to you

Hi

When I was first kicked out of the old house

Didn't you let me stay at your place without saying a word?

My proudest achievement is having my daughter, Xiaoyu.

Who says not having a son means you'll have no descendants?

In the future, you can also have your family line continue by having a son-in-law live with you.

The light rain wasn't enough.

And pear blossoms

The child who will take your surname

More than the eldest and second eldest sons' families

I am not a sow

You two shouldn't make arrangements for me.

Head of household

The second brother of the head of the household has arrived.

He alone

Not the whole family came.

Knocking on the door in the front yard

Prefer to drink with outsiders

He doesn't call me his second brother either.

Liu Shunzi stayed at someone else's house

They really think they're the masters.

Dad doesn't have a stove here.

How can it be so heartwarming?

The walls are all warm.

It's warmer than our kang (heated brick bed) at home.

Mother, I want to live here.

Outsiders can stay

A nephew naturally lives in the house more.

You should talk to your third uncle properly later.

If the whole family can move here

No need to lift a finger and no need to deal with in-laws

That's true happiness

Unable to have a son

Still dressed so nicely

Do those two money-losing girls deserve to wear such nice clothes?

These things should all be left to my son, Sanzhu, sooner or later.

I want brown sugar water

Also, some snacks

Didn't Mom say that Xiaoshu's family has everything?

Why are we only given tasteless water to drink?

The children see you living in nice houses and wearing new clothes

They thought they were as rich as the landlords.

Children don't understand.

I thought you were deliberately hiding it from him.

Please don't take offense, younger brother and sister-in-law.

There is no brown sugar at home.

There were no snacks either

We usually only drink hot water.

If the third brother is not thirsty

You don't have to drink it.

Uh-huh

Sanzhu is not greedy.

It's close to you.

When I see my family, I want to act cute and affectionate.

Why did you used to run away whenever you saw me?

He was afraid I would adopt him.

He's barely called me "little uncle" more than a few times.

When the child was young

They're all sensible now.

We know that we are family.

Zhao Di misses Xiao Yu

Li thought of her third brother and sister-in-law

The boys also talked about their uncle every day.

Zhao Di played with Xiao Yu.

Your mother went to talk to your third aunt.

Sanzhu loves pear blossoms the most.

You should get closer to each other too.

My second sister-in-law and I didn't have much to say to each other before.

Chunmiao's mother is still waiting for me to send her shoe patterns.

I'll go to the front yard first.

Xiaoyu, I've been missing you terribly lately.

Let's go play in your room.

What do you want from me?

I remember you used to make me do the laundry and sweep the floor.

When they were still calling me a money-loser

As long as they give me meat candy and snacks every day

I'll settle in first.

Where's my woodshed?

Oh no, I've ended up in the wrong film crew!

This girl is so poor!

They picked up all the grain in the snow.

I can hear

Seriously, don't keep talking about me in your mind.

ah

I don't want to think about it anymore.

Give him a meat bun

I hope they won't notice I have a space, thank you.

You're cheating too.

Maybe it was just good luck.

Wait until the next time that door opens

Remember to call me

I gave him a quilt

There are also meat buns

Babies who want to see

Search for "Famine Years" on Hongguo Short Drama

I became the richest wife in the whole village.

Oh, and don't forget to click "favorite" and "pre-order"!

And remember to come visit me.

I want brown sugar water

Also, some snacks

Didn't Mom say that Xiaoshu's family has everything?

Why are we only given tasteless water to drink?

The children see you living in nice houses and wearing new clothes

They thought they were as rich as the landlords.

We usually only drink hot water.

If the third brother is not thirsty

You don't have to drink it.

Sanzhu is not greedy.

It's close to you.

When I see my family, I want to act cute and affectionate.

Why did you used to run away whenever you saw me?

He was afraid I would adopt him.

The word "little tree" has never been used before.

Zhao Di

Haven't you been thinking about Xiaoyu all this time?

The two sisters went inside to have a private chat.

Second Uncle, this is the room where I sleep.

Even parents wouldn't just walk in.

You used to call me a money-loser.

They just dump their dirty laundry on me to wash.

We really don't have any secrets to share.

My daughter Xiaoyu used to do most of the chores at the old house.

Eat the least amount of food

Now I have silver

Who knows who has a lowly life?

But my little rain

She can wear whatever she wants.

Bring whatever you want

In the future, I will buy carriages and maids.

I'll prioritize my two daughters first.

My house, my money

Only for my wife and daughter

There's no such thing as a grudge lasting overnight between the third brother's children.

You have no son

Someone will have to break the pot and die eventually.

One's own nephew is always more reliable than a stranger.

Don't you think so?

You are not allowed to bully my older sister.

Remember to bookmark this page!

The child is talking nonsense

Third brother, don't take it seriously.

I didn't make things up.

Second brother

This is the son you handed over to me to support in my old age.

They're already calculating when I'll die before I've even been adopted.

Why did you chase my daughter away?

He's young and misunderstood.

I'll raise you for a few years from now.

Naturally they will be close to you.

My two daughters are filial and sensible.

100 times better than this ingrate

Even if I never have a son in this life

I will never adopt him.

You don't want me

Who will inherit the house in the future?

The house was given to Xiaoyu and Lihua

It's none of your business, please leave.

As long as I get meat and sugar every day

I'm fine with settling in first.

Anyway, my third uncle can't fool me.

I'm not leaving, I want to stay here.

I won't go, it's warm here.

There's also meat and sugar.

I'll live at my third uncle's house from now on.

Stop making a fuss and come back with Dad first.

Adoption is not something that can be decided today and then kept.

The clan chief still needs to write the document.

Mother said that Third Uncle had no sons.

I need it every morning and evening.

He doesn't want me now.

I insist on staying.

I'll say it again.

My family doesn't need another son.

And there's no shortage of ancestors who covet the family fortune.

Sanzhu, come home, Mom will make you brown sugar.

There was no brown sugar at home.

You even said that as long as I come in...

I can eat meat every day

After my third uncle died, the house and all the money went to me.

Hey, who taught you to talk nonsense?

When I get home today, I'll spank your ass until it's ripped off.

Don't fight him.

Get your hands dirty

Second Uncle

Children's words never come from nowhere.

If you really want to get married

How could I teach him to wish for my parents to die?

Dad clearly said the house would be mine in the future.

Why are you still hitting me?

I told you to curry favor with Third Uncle.

I didn't ask you to say it to my face.

Quick-witted but stupid

Any major event can break you.

The child is still young

Teach slowly

You really hurt him.

I'll fight you to the death.

It's because I love him the most.

That's why he's become so arrogant and ignorant.

The third brother doesn't think much of him now.

Adoption can only involve changing the person.

Doctor, look, my daughter Ruxin can sit up now.

I wonder how well my leg is recovering.

The bones have healed.

Lying down for too long

It's normal that they won't leave for the time being.

Practice slowly with someone's help every day

It will recover in a few days.

Waiting for you to be fully recovered

Mother will take you back to the county town.

Find a good matchmaker

I will never let you stay here and suffer any longer.

daughter

I must marry into a rich family.

I'll never have to put up with their attitude again.

Why

Maihua has been married for so long

It's been a long time since I've visited my parents' home.

Will the third brother of the family really find a son-in-law to marry into the family?

Humph, what good man would be willing to marry into a good family?

The third son's family fortune was finally...

It still ended up in the hands of his nephew.

It's just that Sanzhu's mouth is too fast.

It is not suitable to send it there

Who do you want to replace?

Sanzhu is the one I love the most.

Erzhu is also my biological son.

Are you really willing to let him call someone else "father" and "mother"?

It's not like I really don't want him.

Erzhu is sensible and keeps his mouth shut.

Do you know who your biological parents are?

After moving into the three-bedroom apartment

Both reading and eating meat

It can also help find out the third brother's ways of making money.

Inheriting the family business

They will still come back to take care of us.

My third uncle's family is living much better than the old house.

It might not be a bad thing if I can actually go.

Only one of the three sons has a chance

Why have my parents never considered me?

Wait, I'm going to the county town too.

Just squeeze it and it's done.

I can help you look after things when I get back.

Let's go, driver.

We paid for the bus fare based on the number of people.

There's not enough room for one more person.

Why should a family pay for a car?

I'm not heavy

My second aunt has feet and can walk.

The car was rented.

Who gets to sit is up to us.

snort

Well done, daughter!

Let him hitch a ride today

He'll dare ask us to buy him New Year's goods tomorrow!

In previous years, I only dared to look when I went to the city.

This year I was finally able to ask about prices.

Can buy things

Thanks to the big tree, we've made money.

Children should be well-fed and warmly dressed during the Chinese New Year.

Dad, I already have new clothes.

If you buy this kind of floral fabric again...

I will make you a suit.

Never mind, I think gray looks good on me.

My daughter fried the meatballs first.

The bowl that the Liu family sent yesterday

I didn't get enough!

Dad can chop meat and vegetables

My mother and I warmed ourselves by the fire first.

Hmph, so I'm the only one who did the work?

Dad packed a bowl of fried chicken and delivered it to the front yard.

No need to send meatballs

Their house exploded too.

Okay

This is more tiring than chopping wood.

If you're patient and tie it up properly, it can last for two months.

Let's take a couple of days off before making the New Year's dishes.

I bought too many things

It takes some effort to make all of them.

The matter was accomplished

Zhao family's grain and silver

We'll split it in half.

The old man hit me

The second wife is laughing at me.

The first wife only treated me as a servant.

Since none of them are good people

Then don't blame me for taking action.

Ouch

My husband, I feel nauseous.

Eat a little bit

Don't let my son go hungry

Husband, eat!

I feel nauseous at the smell of oil.

He must have been tired from busy preparing for the New Year all day.

Go and rest.

We'll continue tomorrow.

ah

We agreed that the grain would belong to me.

Silver jewelry split equally

Stop talking and get moving!

The move must be completed before dawn.

Don't steal too much at once.

First, let them think they are outsiders.

The pot and firewood remain

Talented people won't freeze to death immediately.

Taking it away now would be too conspicuous.

Wait until the wind dies down

I'll dig it out slowly.

I rummaged through the silver box until it was a bit messy.

To create the appearance of being searched by foreign thieves.

That old man and woman Zhao are utterly despicable.

They actually closed the door and hit me.

Aren't you just taking advantage of my age to bully me?

Tonight, I'll taste what it's like to be frozen in an ice cellar.

Ahhh

old man, old man

Someone come quick, the old man's gone cold.

Quickly take your dad away.

The kang (heated brick bed) in this room has no heat at all.

No matter how I called him, he wouldn't wake up.

Brother, hurry and fetch a doctor!

The old man absolutely cannot die now.

If there were no father

Who will stand up for me from now on?

snort

snort

What's wrong with me?

You felt cold all over just now.

I thought you were gone.

It should be due to cold entering the body.

You need to keep warm.

Taking medicine and resting

Waking up a little later

Something really bad could happen.

Why did the kang (heated brick bed) suddenly go out?

I just checked.

The cable was filled with wet mud.

For some reason, cotton-padded clothes and quilts

He was thrown into the snow in the corner of the yard.

This was not an accident.

I just checked the grain in the cellar at home.

The meat and New Year's goods were almost completely sold out.

Many cabinets and wall openings were also searched.

The pots, pans, and firewood are still there.

But there's not much left to cook.

How did the thief know where everything was?

That's terrifying!

Was it the last time they stole from the county town?

The thieves in the courtyard have set their sights on our house again.

My father is currently ill.

The family ran out of food again.

The pursuit of the thief can only be put on hold.

Second brother, you go find the third brother first.

His family has plenty of grain and silver.

Bring several hundred kilograms over

Then we can get through the winter.

Why don't you go?

They always make me run errands whenever they have a problem.

All the benefits they received went into your house.

If you don't come, our whole family will starve to death.

Second brother arrived at this time

What happened again?

The old house was broken into again last night.

All the grains, meat, and New Year's goods are gone.

Dad was so cold he almost couldn't wake up.

Mother also said she felt unwell.

You can ignore your brother and sister-in-law

But I can't really watch my own parents get into trouble.

Have you called the doctor?

The father was chilled.

There's not even enough rice in the house to boil medicine now.

Dad told me to come and call you.

Capable of precise blocking

The people who found food

Most are familiar with the old house

But saving lives is more important right now.

Pear blossoms remain in the Liu family

Your mother and Xiaoyu went there

It looks bad to be empty-handed

Bring a chicken first

Bring some white rice as well.

Patients shouldn't drink coarse fish soup.

Food can be brought.

The accounts must be settled first.

So that we don't end up supporting the whole family again.

Go take a look first

If anyone wants to treat us as saviors

Give up as soon as possible

Third brother, come inside quickly.

Dad has been listless since this morning.

There's nothing to eat at home.

I don't even know how to take the medicine.

The pots, pans, and firewood are still there.

The cellar and grain jars were almost empty.

The thief clearly took the most valuable items selectively.

The easiest thing to sell

Third brother, you can't ignore this this time.

There wasn't a single grain of rice in the house.

The thief is trying to drive us to our deaths.

From now on, your mother can only rely on you.

Mother let go first

I brought rice and chicken.

Dad is recovering and needs enough food for a few days.

A few days is not enough

A dozen mouths in the family

Your family has a lot of grain stored.

Send several hundred kilograms first.

We'll repay you slowly after next year's grain harvest.

I can take care of your and Dad's meals.

Others have hands and feet

Why should I be the one to raise them too?

My third brother's family suffered misfortune.

You only care about your parents

Isn't that a bit too heartless?

My older brother has a house in the county town.

He also teaches

If you really have no food

Selling houses, copying books, borrowing dormitories

Any of these is better than finding a younger brother who was assigned to another family.

Now is not the time to settle scores.

Brothers share both glory and honor

If one suffers, all suffer.

If people starve to death in the old house

Your face doesn't look good either.

When I left with nothing

The whole family almost slept outside.

Who cares if their face doesn't look good?

Now I support my parents according to the family division agreement.

I have done my duty

I was born in vain to have you.

My brother and nephew are starving to death.

You still have the nerve to talk about documents?

Uncle Nai's family has able-bodied members

My uncle also has a house.

Really need help

We should sell what we can first.

I can't always just take my dad's money.

Xiaoyu is right.

My older brother's house is still there.

Why do they always move when something goes wrong?

The fields in the palace and the money of the third brother

Second brother, which side are you on?

I'm on my child's side.

I used to be most afraid of my in-laws saying I was unfilial.

Now I understand

Just take a step back

The old house would drag the entire three-room house back into the mire.

Parents are sick

We will not ignore this.

But we shouldn't be responsible for supporting our elder brothers' wives and children.

Set aside today's rice first.

We'll discuss it later.

No need to discuss later

Tomorrow I will deliver food according to the amount my parents need.

Please have the village chief and fellow villagers as witnesses.

The things were only given to Second Grandmother

Whoever misappropriated it is responsible for making up for it.

I drove my whole family to the point of starvation.

He was only willing to save two old people.

This man is more difficult to handle than I imagined.

Tomorrow, the goods must be delivered via the main road in the village.

Let everyone see

We must fulfill our filial duties clearly and explicitly.

20 jin of white rice

20 jin of wheat flour

20 eggs

5 jin of pork

Eat sparingly according to the combined appetite of grandparents.

Can hold out for a while

Should we add some more whole grains?

Although it's good for the elderly to eat refined grains

You can't eat only these things every meal.

Send these first, too many will be sent.

In the blink of an eye, he entered his elder brother's room.

It's not that we can't bear to part with it.

Whoever is responsible should be held accountable.

Who is this for, uncle?

My father caught a cold.

The old house was burgled again.

I'm dividing the family property.

Parents cannot ignore their children

You didn't get a single acre of land back then.

They still send white rice and white flour now.

They've been filial enough.

The eldest son owns a house in the county town.

The second child hasn't separated from the family yet.

Logically, it shouldn't be your turn to pay alone.

Who made me soft-hearted?

I only hope that the food will actually go into my parents' stomachs.

Don't let someone else take it again.

Dad knew

You're not truly heartless.

My family suffered a disaster

In the end, you're the one I can rely on.

Leave some white flour for Da Wen.

He works hard teaching in the city.

Meat to nourish Jia Dong

Several children should also have a taste.

Mother, these are only for you and Father.

The eldest and second eldest brothers, whoever eats it, will make up for it by weight.

The third brother and his children watched the old man eat meat.

You made them swallow hard.

The older brother felt bad about it, so he bought it himself.

You are the child's father

It's not that I don't want to get a share of the meat.

But I'd rather see my older brother get his comeuppance.

Since my third brother told our parents...

We should do as he says.

If the eldest brother takes it

What kind of filial piety is that?

Put your things in my room first.

No one is allowed to move.

The village uncles and elders are all here

Let me explain again.

How much do parents eat each day?

The second sister-in-law cooked and brought the food into the house.

If you miss it, I won't deliver food next time.

Simply change it to delivering two bowls of rice daily.

Watch Erliang finish eating before leaving.

You even guard against your own brothers

What does it look like?

The family just lost grain.

I'm guarding against thieves.

Not relatives

If you have nothing to hide, you don't need to get angry.

The third brother has gone this far.

Whoever says he is unfilial

That would truly be heartless.

The third son's amount of grain is probably not enough.

Send another 200 jin in two days.

There are many people in the family.

We can't just watch someone starve to death.

father

What I'm giving today is my filial piety.

Not taking over the entire Zhao family

More than ten people in the family

Only your mother and I are full.

The others were hungry

Can we swallow this?

If he couldn't swallow it, he asked his older brothers to buy it.

You feel sorry for them

You can save your share.

I won't stop you

You know perfectly well that the boss has no money.

The second child has many children.

Why force a family to their doom?

I don't force anyone

I just refuse to put myself

Wife and daughters are dragged back into a life of hardship

Go back inside and say

Third brother, you're rich now.

But she only has two daughters

In the future, your brothers and nephews will be the ones who can help you when you encounter problems.

Help them a little more now

Only when you get old will someone take care of you.

Dad is scaring me again with the threat of being childless.

If I really get sick

Will my older brother sell his house in the county town to save me?

My second brother will bring his son over to give me my medicine.

Let's first figure out who owns my house.

Hmph, why think so badly of each other, brothers?

The eldest brother first paid back the money his father had received from selling the land.

Talk to me about brotherhood again

Then you set a quota for me and your mother.

We can't just send it today and stop it tomorrow.

The elderly felt uncertain.

In addition to the annual division of family property documents

In addition to providing fixed food rations for the two elderly people

There are fixed quantities for both refined and coarse grains.

Meat is still given as usual during the Winter Solstice and Chinese New Year.

But this is only enough for the two of them.

If it's taken by the eldest and second eldest brothers

I will not deliver grain next time.

Change to delivering two bowls of rice daily

I watched you finish eating

You treat your own mother like a criminal.

If Mother doesn't send the food rations to my eldest brother

Then no one will look at you.

This is already the biggest concession the third son has made.

First, follow this number.

Please have my second brother and the villagers bear witness.

From now on, if anyone says I don't support my parents...

Then I will explain what I have to say today.

Although I dislike both hands

But they also knew that pushing further would only lead to nothing.

Everyone come quickly!

Dad has a fever

He wouldn't wake up no matter how much I called him.

I already saw a doctor during the day.

Stay up one more night

We'll talk about it tomorrow.

He was delirious from the fever.

You still want to save money

Li went to fetch a doctor.

Dazhu, go find your third uncle quickly.

Third Uncle is sick

I can't wake her up no matter how I call her.

Since the third brother is guarding it

I'm going back to sleep now.

Father loved his eldest brother the most.

My own father is so sick

If you leave

How heartbroken he must have been when he woke up

Nobody should run away tonight.

I still need to read books tomorrow.

How can you teach students if you ruin your health?

My second brother also gets tired from working during the day.

I came from the village committee, which is even further away.

The eldest brother was the father's favorite.

Of course, we should show more filial piety.

Is Third Brother hungry?

I'll make you a bowl of noodles.

I don't need to bring it myself anymore.

What are you bringing all this for while you're on night watch?

Xiaoyu was worried I was hungry.

Taking care of the patient also means suffering alongside them.

Only when they are well-fed can they have the energy to take care of them.

What about mine?

My older brother is used to eating well in the county town.

They look down on country-style steamed buns

Besides, didn't you want to go back to your room to sleep?

I shouldn't be hungry.

Give it back if you don't eat it.

It's a pity it's cold.

Dazhu and the others haven't eaten meat in a long time.

I want to leave it to my children.

It'll get hot tomorrow morning.

The four children shared it.

Take it back together

Children suffer the most from hunger.

But you have to teach them right from wrong.

They were hoping I would die before they even entered my house.

We've spoiled Sanzhu.

I will teach you when I get back.

I remember the kindness shown to me today.

The patient has a persistent high fever.

The situation is quite dangerous.

We must stay until dawn.

Thank you for your hard work, doctor.

Let's stay here to warm up and rest for a while.

The eldest brother is the most filial.

It's your responsibility to administer the medication.

Others only bring a water bottle when keeping watch.

You seem to be here for a holiday.

Hmph, people need to eat to live.

I won't eat while my dad is lying down.

He won't recover any faster.

Doctor, please take a look at my mother later too.

Dad burned like this

She can still sleep like nothing happened.

I'm afraid she's also delirious from her illness.

If the father truly only entrusted the care to the mother

She might not even wake up even if she's burned to death.

Doctor, you absolutely must take my mother's pulse.

Staying up late at night

Why are you all surrounding me?

Your mother has no problems whatsoever.

His pulse is more stable than that of many of his peers.

Dad is almost delirious from the fever.

Mother can still sleep so soundly

I was also frozen all night.

Why can't I sleep?

Oh

It turns out my carefree nature comes from my mother.

The fever has subsided, so continue taking your medication on time.

Take good care of yourself

Suffering from the cold again

The body really couldn't take it.

Since Dad is alright...

I'll be going now.

We're too tired, let's go back and get some sleep.

It's still more comfortable at home.

The old house had two stoves.

My feet are cold

How is Dad?

The fever subsided and the doctor stayed up half the night.

It should be nothing serious.

But your mother-in-law

Nothing happened

Sleeps better than anyone else

Mom, let's have wontons for breakfast.

Grandpa's fever subsided so quickly

My health is pretty good.

Dad quickly caught up on his sleep.

No need to go today.

I waited until midnight last night

Finally, they cornered Uncle Zhao near the outhouse.

I wanted to feign weakness to get closer to them.

My third brother and I suffered endless bullying in the Zhao family.

Only you look like a sensible person.

Brother, your new wife is looking for you.

Come and pick up the person!

Why is my third brother treating me like this?

Am I not pretty enough?

Father, second brother, sister-in-law, and third brother kept watch all night.

They all went to catch up on sleep.

Eat something first, then take your medicine.

Do the third brother's family eat these every day?

Where is your medicine?

The doctor said I'm cured.

No need to take medicine

Just a few days

Freeze overnight.

How come you're completely unharmed?

I'm lucky, God won't take me.

It's still more comfortable at home.

The two stoves in the old house burned all night.

My feet were still ice-cold when I woke up in the middle of the night.

Dad had such a high fever last night

There's really nothing to do today.

The doctor saw me again this morning.

The fever has subsided.

I just went to see

Still snoring there

Grandpa is not young anymore

Having a high fever all night is no small matter.

Your breasts are much stronger than his.

Your grandpa was burning up and groaning.

He was snoring right next to me.

The doctor came but didn't wake him up.

New Year's Eve is just around the corner.

Let's not do anything during the day.

I'll go check it out again tonight.

Slow down and make sure your feet are firmly planted.

Ru Xin can leave

The doctor said the bones are healing well.

As long as it doesn't get hurt again.

I will be able to walk normally in the spring.

Then we must not rush.

It's okay to keep it for another ten days.

Falling again would be the real torture.

Thank you, Uncle Shan.

I'll buy several dozen pieces of candy tomorrow.

Add some more paper and ink to the great text.

Chinese New Year

We can't let the scholar's son not even have a red paper.

strangeness

Nothing can be found again.

old man

Where is the silver?

Where is the silver I hid here?

It's not here either.

Did you remember the wrong place?

I touch it once every night before bed.

I will never forget it, even if I die.

null

It's gone.

All my silver and copper coins are gone.

That damned thief!

That's my money for my coffin.

They didn't leave me a single penny!

What happened to my parents?

money

They were all stolen.

That money of ours, sir

Goodbye

Only now did I remember to look for it.

It's late

It's gone.

It's really gone.

I did odd jobs for more than ten years

You embroider a purse

Reluctant to eat

I can't bear to wear it

That's how I saved up this much silver.

If parents find out the amount of money they have hidden away

Instead, they first questioned why we hid the money.

We slept soundly until dawn that night.

I didn't even hear the door open.

How did the thief know where the silver was hidden?

Not an outsider

It must be someone familiar with the home.

I asked before

You always say you have no money

Give me the money earlier

Where would thieves get off easy?

cough cough cough

That's the money your mother and I have for our retirement.

Why should I give you everything?

It's too late to say anything now.

My house was burgled twice

The mansions in Dawen County were also emptied.

Has the Zhao family been bewitched?

You must go to the temple to pray at the beginning of spring.

May the gods and Buddhas bless us with peace and prosperity in the coming year.

Otherwise, one house after another will be robbed.

Who would dare to store things at home?

I'll go when the snow melts.

This year has been incredibly strange for the Zhao family.

ah

The third son's family lost all their money.

My parents' and mine

You hid so well

The thief didn't miss a single place.

The holes in the walls, the tile jars, and the roof beams were all turned over.

The most bizarre thing is

Everyone slept soundly that night.

Even if they move grain and search the house, no one will wake up.

There's very likely something in the food.

Know a family's schedule

They also know the location of the hidden money.

They must be acquaintances.

But the old house is full of family members.

The only one in the family who went in later.

Isn't that the one my older brother brought back?

His origins are unknown.

They dared to block my way before.

What kind of law-abiding person could he be?

Outsiders come in

So many places to search

I still won't finish flipping through it by dawn.

Unless someone knew in advance

Or someone opened the door for him in the yard.

Don't make veiled accusations.

Xiao Hong is pregnant with my child.

How could he possibly steal the Zhao family's money?

The third brother didn't name names again.

What's the rush?

You all treat me like an outsider.

Family trouble

The first one to suspect me

Since they can't tolerate me

I'll leave.

Who will slander Xiaohong again?

That's just making trouble for me.

Is it him?

They'll eventually slip up.

Big brother, just remember

If this woman continues to harm the Zhao family...

You should atone with your death.

daughter

How is your health?

Third brother, you have to save your mother!

My retirement savings are all gone.

I have absolutely no confidence about what will happen next.

The eldest brother is the most filial.

You and Dad will have him to take care of you in your old age.

What do you need money for?

Is he the eldest brother?

No money

I can't sleep soundly.

You have plenty of money

Give some to Mom first

I'll return it to you once the thief is found.

No matter how much you give, it won't fill the space.

Can I call a doctor?

Buy medicine and deliver food

But you can't fill a bottomless pit with silver.

I gave birth to you and raised you.

When I get old, I can't even get some retirement money.

Your family eats meat every day.

Not afraid that her own mother will die of poverty

Mother still has three sons, doesn't she?

I fulfilled my filial duties according to the family division agreement.

They also give away extra food and meat.

If cash is given again

Will it end up in the hands of the eldest brother again?

Third brother, don't be so rude with your words.

Unpleasant to hear does not mean it is not true.

Father sold two acres of land to pay for Jia Dong's medical treatment.

Have you paid it back?

Now Mom is asking for money.

You should pay some for her first.

Alright, stop fooling around during the New Year.

The fact that the third brother even came to see you is already a great honor.

Not more

Give me a little less and I'll leave.

I don't spend money recklessly

It's reassuring to keep it hidden on your person.

Precisely because it needs to be hidden

I can't give it to you.

Money was recently stolen from the house

Insert another pen

Did they think the thieves hadn't taken enough?

How much?

They only said they'd give a little.

But if I start this...

Today's One Point

Tomorrow will bring even more.

If you don't give it, then...

We can deliver medicine and food.

Silver cannot be given.

Wow

We closed the door to prepare the New Year's Eve dinner.

Have a good meal this year

Father killed the chicken and chopped the meat

Mom makes dumplings

Pear Blossom was in charge of washing the red dates.

Today I want to eat spicy stir-fried water chestnuts.

Make braised pork again

All the hard work of the year

Eat whatever you want on New Year's Eve.

This time last year

We're still fighting over a piece of meat at the old house.

This year, all the dishes on the table were my own.

New Year

I ask for nothing else

I only wish for my family to be safe and healthy.

No one should be bullied anymore.

Everything is fine.

Dad's cooking today was delicious!

Eat as much as you want

Every year thereafter

That's how we all live.

Why should the third son's family be able to live a good life?

He's even better than me, a mere scholar.

Dad really ate two chickens today.

Haha, eat!

I made money following your Uncle Zhao this year.

One chicken leg each

No one is allowed to steal it.

Slow down

Mom is even tastier than pastries

Xiaoyu taught

In previous years, they didn't have enough to eat during the winter.

This year I can eat meat

Woman lives in a warm house

We must not forget who helped us.

Uncle's Love

Our family will remember this for a lifetime

The third wife has something to do.

I was the first one to arrive.

We can't be ungrateful.

One

Hahaha

Make it thinner, otherwise it will be gone in two chopsticks.

Eat quickly, there might not be any left when it's served.

Mother, please keep two more pieces.

If you don't find out, your milk will be gone.

Even these two pieces cannot be saved.

Remember, no matter how much Xu Xiaohong is favored

I am the rightful wife of the Zhao family, married through proper channels.

The second brother told the eldest brother

Xu Xiaohong will not be at the table tonight.

Another disturbance during the Lunar New Year

If she throws a tantrum

In the end, no one could eat in peace.

No marriage certificate and not included in the family genealogy

It wasn't a proper marriage.

She's not Zhao's daughter-in-law.

But she was pregnant.

Money just went missing from my house

She came in later.

New Year's Eve must not break the rules.

Father still doubted her

Whether she can stay with the Zhao family is still uncertain.

Go and deliver the message

yes

Dad said you weren't included in the family genealogy.

There was no proper wedding ceremony.

We can't eat the Zhao family's New Year's Eve dinner tonight.

Xiao Hong was pregnant with the Zhao family's child.

How could it be an outsider?

Don't get angry at me

You should fight to find your own father.

Did Brother Wen's parents never consider me a member of the Zhao family?

Don't overthink it.

All I want is to have a New Year's Eve dinner with my family.

If they truly cannot tolerate me

I won't eat it.

You are my wife

No one can let you go hungry.

He couldn't even bear to give her a meal.

They even want me to have a child for the Zhao family.

The more you guard against me

I'm determined to take away what you cherish most.

Dad, why won't you let Xiaohong have New Year's Eve dinner?

Dad, why won't you let Xiaohong eat New Year's Eve dinner?

Outsiders don't sit at the Zhao family's table on New Year's Eve.

You won't die from missing a meal.

She is your daughter-in-law

She's carrying the Zhao family's child.

Have I acknowledged him?

Do you have a marriage certificate?

Parents are gone

The clansmen were unaware

You two can be considered husband and wife just by bowing to each other twice in private.

No matter what, they're still outsiders you brought back.

The father-in-law refused to feed his pregnant daughter-in-law.

Aren't you afraid people will laugh at you if this gets out?

Hmph, if you really care, then give him all your food.

No one can break the Zhao family's rules today.

go out

Brother Wen, they still refuse to acknowledge me, right?

Dad is a stickler for the rules, don't be afraid.

I'll share half of my dumplings and meat with you.

But I'm pregnant

Eat half of you

What do you do?

It's no big deal if I skip a meal.

Returning to the county town in spring

I'll buy you chicken and pastries.

You keep saying you love me

In the end, all they could give was half a bowl of rice.

You have a small appetite

Give me a few dumplings.

Ten per person

It was decided by my father.

Whom do you give yours to?

It's your business

I couldn't bear to see her go hungry.

Don't snatch food from other people's mouths.

Wang is my wife.

What's hers is mine.

She will raise your child.

Taking care of the elderly

Today, I couldn't even keep ten dumplings.

Have you no shame?

Have you no shame?

You don't recognize me today.

Wait until I leave with the silver

Don't blame me for disowning the Zhao family.

ah

Xiao Hong was alone in the house.

I'll go keep her company.

Sit down and you'll say you're the eldest son of the Zhao family.

Staying up all night means staying up until midnight.

Don't worry, she just ate half of your meal, she won't go hungry.

If it weren't for my father stopping me...

I took her back to the city for the Chinese New Year.

Then there will be two fewer mouths.

This will save you two grains at home.

They listen to everything I say.

He dared not move at his own father's word.

Does this kind of man even deserve my lifelong commitment?

cough

Dad, can I have another piece?

The joy of eating during the Lunar New Year

Hahaha

Saying you'll stay up all night

The body surrendered first.

He didn't leave his father a single penny.

You only learn your lesson when you lose money.

I dressed like a landlord's wife

I didn't even think to buy my in-laws a new dress.

The New Year's gifts have already been given.

If Mother wants to add more clothes

My older brother who lives in the county town can send it to me.

Little Rain Sister

Today looks really good

Sister misses you terribly

My cousin's leg got better.

As for missing me

We've never been this close before.

The daughter-in-law was dressed more elegantly than her mother-in-law.

Not afraid of being laughed at.

I bought the clothes.

If Mother is angry with me, then...

Little Rain Sister

This outfit was bought in the prefectural city.

The colors are so beautiful.

This is also the first year we've worn new clothes.

My cousin used to have silk clothes every year.

Your outfit isn't bad either.

Mother, you should go back and entertain the guests first.

I went to visit a few households in the village.

Little Rain Pear Blossoms

Go with Dad or not

I'm not going; I'll help my mother entertain the guests.

I'm not going either.

We have our own candy at home.

Hum

You guys go back first

Hahaha

Happy New Year, Aunt Zhao!

Hahaha

Take your time, no grabbing allowed.

Oh no, I gave you too much.

Giving less at the end seems like favoritism.

I'd still give it, but I'm afraid it wouldn't be enough.

The point of Chinese New Year is to have fun.

How much was given in front?

How much will be given later?

We must not be biased.

ah

Aunt Zhao, I'll be the first one to come next year.

Haha, all they care about is eating!

Oh, when did our family turn into a candy shop?

Who told Mom to give such a huge blessing in the first wave?

I am your nephew

I want two servings

One serving per person in line

Even one's own nephew is the same.

Didn't you think you were embarrassed enough last time?

Sanzhu ruined his own opportunity.

What if it were me?

Isn't that too much?

My family also made money this year.

We don't need your help.

It's their business whether they have money or not.

You suffered in the old house in the past

My parents-in-law have provided me with a lot of financial assistance.

Now we have the ability

This favor should be repaid.

Hurry up, I'm going to Grandma's house!

Why bring so much when going back to my parents' home?

Your days are just beginning.

Mother, we really don't lack these things now.

You and Dad can keep it without worry.

This year, our family can also have a prosperous New Year.

Thanks to Xiaoyu and her son-in-law

Father, you're being too polite.

Business can succeed

It was earned through everyone's hard work.

Excluding car purchase, hiring, and travel expenses

Net loss of 160 taels

I'll buy land in the spring.

build blue brick houses

Build a warm wall again

Sleeping in the wild and traveling long distances is hard.

Seeing the silver made it all worthwhile.

Parents will no longer have to suffer from the cold.

I'm relieved.

Mother, I'm back.

I haven't been back for a year

How did my family become so poor?

Mother, I'm back.

My mother and older brother didn't send any New Year's gifts this year.

Why isn't there even a new piece of cloth in the house?

Don't even mention it.

Your older brother's house in the county town was emptied.

My house was burgled twice more.

All the grain, meat, and silver are gone.

So many things can fly now.

Jia Dong spent 23 taels of silver to treat his injuries.

He also sold two acres of land.

Ru Xin broke her leg while working.

Ru Xin, a girl

How to get her to do manual labor?

If you live in my house, you have to do chores.

She is the young lady

I can't be a member of her family

Lu Xin can leave

Your aunt thought you were really going to be crippled.

The doctor said it can be recovered.

If it weren't for someone refusing to take care of her...

I wouldn't have suffered so much.

Humph, Mother

I heard that my third brother built a new house.

Why weren't I invited to the housewarming party?

That bastard said they hadn't been in contact for years.

Calling you makes it seem like you're greedy for your wedding gift money.

Third Brother did not leave with nothing.

Where did the money come from to build the house?

Who knows?

Now living in a large house made of blue bricks

They eat and dress better than anyone else.

Daughter

Your mother even lost the money for her coffin.

He didn't have a single copper coin in his hand.

Mother, don't worry, my eldest brother is a scholar.

Third Brother is rich.

I won't let you go hungry.

The third son simply delivered the items according to the written instructions.

Your older brother is poor himself.

They don't care about us.

By the way, don't go into your older brother's house without permission.

There's a little bitch living inside.

Isn't my sister-in-law at home?

Who is inside the house?

My sister-in-law didn't go back to her parents' home.

Who's inside?

Your brother brought it back from the county town.

She was said to be a concubine.

She wasn't even a proper concubine.

You even flirted with the third brother in front of me and your father.

I've never seen such an unchaste woman.

Seducing the Third Brother

What does she actually look like?

This doesn't look like a woman living a proper life at all.

Clearly from a brothel.

Xu Xiaohong is young and charming

Roughened by life

Zhao Maihua is completely different

My brother-in-law truly deserves to be called a scholar.

So lucky to have a woman

Where did he find a woman like that?

snort

Eat slowly, even if we only eat meat a few times a year.

You can't be this anxious at your parents' home.

He did indeed teach his wife to pretend to be poor when she went back to her parents' home.

Can say it in front of a beautiful woman

I still feel utterly humiliated.

Lately, all the people targeting me seem to be poor.

Zhao Dashu, who is rich and capable, just ignores me.

Eat more wheat flowers

I haven't been back for several months

People have lost weight

Parents also eat father

Where does Third Brother live now?

Hum, that piece of land at the end of the village where no one lives.

A house built with blue bricks

blue brick house

Since Third Brother has money

Why not give some to parents?

Later, my elder brother became an official.

He can also benefit from it.

I've said everything I could.

It's useless for the third child.

He now only recognizes the family division document.

One left with nothing

The most unambitious person in the past

How could a mansion be built in just six months?

How dare you disobey your parents?

This vixen is both lazy and greedy.

My wife and mother-in-law are such gossips.

I want to eat candy.

Why are you so absent-minded today, my dear husband?

I'm thinking of you, Third Brother.

If he really has a mansion and money

We are relatives

We should go and see.

Maybe we can even do some business together.

This vixen has absolutely no regard for her in-laws.

Grandma, I want more candy!

The Yue family was indeed dirt poor.

Never use your own money to subsidize

What exactly did Dad and Third Brother do?

How did they suddenly have the money to build a mansion?

Who knew that when the land was divided up, not a single acre of land was left?

Later, he sold bamboo shoots to deliver goods to restaurants.

The house was built in no time.

He really had a lot of silver.

One

Now that my third uncle has made a fortune, he doesn't recognize anyone anymore.

They didn't invite us to the housewarming party.

During the Chinese New Year, their whole family was dressed neatly.

Grandpa and Grandma didn't even get a new piece of clothing.

You went back to your wife's parents' home with your legal wife today.

What are you coming back to me for?

If it weren't for the Wang family causing trouble...

I'm back now.

What kind of business does Ma Dacai make?

snort

He just sells tea at a stall in town.

Look at his arrogant attitude.

I thought my family owned a shop.

Did you get the silver from the Wang family?

The Wang family not only did not give

They even brought up the old debts of supporting my education and buying me a house.

They made you pay

No IOU

Why do you say it was borrowed?

This man even tried to renege on the money owed to his wife's family.

Not someone you can rely on for life

Are Dad and Third Brother home today?

He must have taken something to the Song family on the second day of the Lunar New Year.

Let's wait for him to come back before we go to pay him a New Year's visit.

Siblings haven't seen each other for many years

You should move around a bit.

My third brother didn't invite me to his wedding banquet.

Will he open the door for us?

younger sister comes to visit

He can also chase people away.

When we met

I'll ask again if you can help me with business.

Even a starved camel is bigger than a horse.

You can't offend either side

Can hold one

The Ma family's life will then turn around.

A younger sister wishes her older brother a Happy New Year.

What to bring

Wait for him to give Youbao a red envelope and meat.

Let's say a few more nice things.

Bring back more grain and oil.

This is the only new house in the vicinity.

It must be your third brother's family.

Your mother wasn't exaggerating this time.

Where is my third brother?

We went inside and waited.

They went to the Song family's house, but they're not there.

This is my third brother's house

It's also like my maternal home.

You're just someone staying here.

Why won't you let me in?

The big tree didn't explain.

I cannot open the door.

You have to wait

Wait outside

Since we're already here

Zhao Dashu will come back eventually.

Let's wait a while.

The child is getting sick from the cold.

Let's go back to the old house first.

Your third brother went to the Song family.

It's impossible to live there

I will definitely come back before sunset.

The uncle's family walked for half a day

They'll definitely freeze when they get back.

Stand if you want

Nobody can use me to open the door and sneak in.

Wheat Flower, what are you doing here?

The old house isn't here.

You've gone to the wrong place.

Third brother, we've come especially to wish you a Happy New Year.

I waited for almost half a day

The Zhao family has produced a second capable person.

I won't enter this door today.

I will never go back.

Sending New Year's greetings empty-handed

My brother-in-law is quite sincere.

Sister-in-law, let's go in first.

We didn't know you had moved to the village committee.

The New Year's gifts were sent to the old house.

Brother and sister meet

You immediately asked about things.

That's too mercenary.

We waited in the snow for almost half a day.

Youbao's face was frozen purple.

You didn't even ask a question

Instead, they find fault

Did I tell you to wait?

Shunzi already said I'm gone.

You yourselves refuse to leave

Whose fault is it if they get frostbite?

She must be dawdling at her parents' house.

It took our whole family until dark.

The aunt spoke as she spoke.

What are you saying about my mother?

She's easy to bully

Adults speaking

Who gave you the right to interrupt?

What's wrong with my daughter protecting her mother?

It's you who haven't visited in years.

They came here wanting to discipline my child.

We're all one family

Why hurt feelings over a few angry words?

Third Brother has made it big.

We are happy for you too.

I'll take my brother-in-law to do some business in the future.

Both sides are good

My most difficult time

Where are you?

Nowhere to live after family separation

I haven't seen you ask a single question.

Building a house and holding a banquet

You also never came from the future

Now I hear I have money

It reminds me of my family.

In the past, when there was a problem in your family, you would only contact your eldest and second eldest brothers.

I've never called it the third room.

I won't invite you

I'm afraid you'll accuse me of being greedy for money.

The two families had no dealings with each other.

Why pretend to be intimate?

It's too cold outside

Let the child go inside and warm up first.

We can discuss other matters inside.

I just got back from my in-laws' house today.

The family is too tired to entertain guests.

I am your younger sister

They can't even get through the door.

My house isn't the Zhao family's official residence; who can enter?

It's up to me, my wife, and my daughters to decide.

Shunzi took me in when I was homeless.

You didn't even show your face when I was suffering.

Who is close and who is distant cannot be determined by words alone.

It was getting dark.

You should go back soon too.

To prevent the child from getting sick from the cold

Your third brother has a little money and doesn't know who he is.

We can't let this go today.

My third brother used to love me the most.

Now they won't even let you in the door.

It must have been Song and Zhao Xiaoyu who stirred things up.

Stop pushing all the blame onto others.

He now owns a house and has money.

Of course, I look down on poor relatives.

Next time, don't come empty-handed.

You can't ask for business right away.

Did you really give him a gift?

Reluctant to spend small amounts of money

How to extract a large sum of money

Repair the relationship first

Try to find out how he made his money.

Da Wen, I heard your house in the county town was robbed.

The Zhao family also sold their land.

The family is indeed struggling.

If my father-in-law is willing to lend me a few taels of silver temporarily

Wait for the school to send a master

I'll pay it back slowly.

You study, take exams, and buy a house

We've given them quite a bit of money.

I used to think we were all family.

Never urged

Now the Wang family is also in trouble.

You should pay off some of the old debts first.

My father-in-law was referring to a loan.

Is there a loan agreement?

Back then, it was clearly you who felt sorry for your daughter.

Voluntarily supporting her son-in-law

Without the Wang family repeatedly taking silver

Can you buy a house in the county town?

Focus on your studies

Now that something has happened at home

Instead, they turned their backs on us.

Head of household

Our parents did help us.

It's not easy now.

You can recognize it first.

I'll pay it back slowly in the future.

When did I borrow from them?

No written agreement

You can't just arbitrarily deduct money from my account.

Since Scholar Zhao and the Wang family have calculated things so clearly...

There's no need to visit anymore.

The silver given to you in the past

We accept our blindness.

From now on, not a single penny.

What do your parents mean?

I visited your home to offer New Year's greetings.

They actually demanded repayment in public.

Is it an attempt to ruin my reputation?

Did you spend the money?

Don't you know the truth?

They support your education.

Help you buy a house

I'm short on cash right now.

What's wrong with opening your mouth?

No IOU means no debt

You solve the problem.

If I ever hear that again...

I will not return to the Wang family from now on.

You cheated me out of my money, and you took it.

Now you want me to go and shut my parents' house up.

In short, I will not admit it.

I have no money to pay back

His mother emptied her family's coffers to give him.

In the end, all I got was a denial.

Men are indeed unreliable.

Zhao Dawen

How did you become so shameless?

Your parents gave you money back then

They voluntarily supported their son-in-law.

I didn't ask to borrow

No IOU was written.

If you can't solve it

Don't go back to your parents' home anymore.

They helped our family.

I'm not the only one.

The house has now been stolen.

You then erased all past feelings.

Can talking about old times conjure up money?

I have no money right now.

Even if I admit it, I still can't repay it.

Ruxin, when you get married in the future, you must keep some money for yourself.

Men can forget the sweet words they say the moment they turn their backs.

Only silver is the closest.

Even if the family can't afford to eat

Mother, you can't reveal all your secrets.

I remember.

The six months of suffering in the old house

I understood long ago.

Without money, there is no dignity.

I will never follow in my mother's footsteps.

Today I went to my wife's parents' home.

They only remembered me after they didn't get the money.

Returning to the city in spring

I'll get you some items.

The Wang family members don't know what's good for them.

Not only did they not give money

They still want me to pay back old debts.

Exactly! How could the Wang family be so greedy?

Dad heard that the Lantern Festival in the county town was very lively.

Let's go see the lanterns with Uncle Liu's family.

Stay one night at the guesthouse

Come back the next day

Okay, okay

I want a little monkey lamp.

go

No need to go to the fields this year

It's rare for the whole family to have some free time.

There are many people at night

Will the child get lost?

Everyone holding hands

Don't go into crowds

If it's too crowded, we'll go to the river to release lanterns.

good

Let's prepare some warm clothes, hot water, and snacks for the children.

We went into the city on the Lantern Festival.

It's the Lantern Festival!

I want to go to the county town to see the lanterns.

There isn't enough food at home.

You still have money to take him out.

The Lantern Festival only happens once a year

What's wrong with spending a few coins?

You can go.

Leave the money for buying grain first.

Zhao Dawen thought the Wang family would continue to support him.

Wang believed her husband would eventually come back.

They all underestimate the complexity of others.

It seems the Zhao family has a lot of members.

The only one who is good enough for me is my third brother.

There wasn't even any flour in the house.

But you want to take her to see the lights.

But it only costs a few copper coins

Don't embarrass yourself like a crazy woman.

Ahhh

It's too difficult.

ah

There are many people today.

There are also many people taking pictures of flowers.

The child must be held tightly

Don't squeeze into the most crowded places.

We mustn't get separated.

Big sister, I want a little monkey lamp.

purchase

What does Chunmiao like?

Each person chooses one.

Too crowded

It's safer and more spacious to release lanterns by the river.

I hope my family will always have meat to eat.

Have a warm house to live in

I only wish for my family to be safe and free from disasters year after year.

May our business prosper year after year.

I want that rabbit lamp.

Just take a look.

It's useless to buy it.

They won't even give me a single light.

You also said you love me the most

You can't eat it after buying it.

Hey, hey, I can't walk anymore, carry me!

Oh dear, I really can't walk anymore.

Even I can't carry it.

What kind of man is he?

Hey hey hey

ah

Ouch

It's all your fault

Are the lanterns pretty?

Are these copper coin ornaments worth it?

The Lantern Festival has passed

Why is it snowing so heavily?

It's colder for Dad today than it was two days ago.

Melting snow is colder than falling snow.

If you feel cold, go back inside.

It will be fine once the sun comes out.

Experiencing sudden natural disasters in a past life

I am particularly sensitive to unusual weather.

The Lantern Festival has passed.

Temperature dropped instead of rising

The fields were still frozen like stones.

It's definitely not an ordinary sentence.

The late spring cold snap would put his mind at ease.

Although there is food in the space

We still need to buy more for the house.

Also, a reminder to the village chief and the old man

Having food in hand means you won't panic.

I'll listen to you.

But don't scare yourself unnecessarily.

It snowed in the spring of previous years too.

Hahaha

I heard your older brother came back from the lantern festival and fell flat on his face.

Bruised and swollen, I stayed home and dared not see anyone.

Hmph, he always looks up at the sky.

It's their own fault for not looking down at the road.

The snow has melted and the temperature should be rising.

You're most comfortable if you don't own any land.

We'll still have to work ourselves to the bone in the spring.

Why don't you come and help me plant them for a few days?

Am I being pathetic?

Finally, I don't have to get out of bed.

Go find the Bitter River for yourself again.

It's safest to stockpile more food.

Even if it was just a false alarm, I'm relieved.

If the snow doesn't melt

Spring plowing will have to be postponed.

Xiaoyu felt something was off.

I want everyone to store more food.

It's not unusual for snow to fall in the first month of the lunar calendar.

But this year the cold has lasted a long time.

Even if nothing happens in the end

Food can be eaten slowly.

Not a waste

Last year, everyone sold bamboo shoots.

Picking river gourds

He had some copper coins.

Can I afford to buy some grain?

Let the village chief lead a few households first.

People go to the city to check grain prices

Notify the whole village again

Daughter, you and Pear Blossom shouldn't go out lately.

The wind felt like a knife scraping my face today.

What the village chief said

Everyone thinks it's worth buying.

Even if spring plowing is delayed

There are mountains behind the village

Even if the imperial court were to encounter a true disaster, it would not completely ignore it.

Let's prepare first.

Neither escape nor chaos

Each household should send one person to the Zhao Clan Ancestral Hall for a meeting.

Originally, I planned to go to the third house to ask for grain.

I need to go to the ancestral hall for a meeting now.

It's nothing more than asking people to buy grain.

The only hope for the old house is still the third son.

This winter has been unusually cold.

Snow does not melt

Spring plowing may be delayed

It's not about making everyone flee the famine.

It's not about forcing anyone to go bankrupt buying food.

Save for one month if you can.

Having grain

Don't panic

Last year, I earned a lot of copper coins selling mushrooms and cattails.

I went into town the next day to check on the grain.

The snow will melt soon.

Spending so much money to buy grain

I still feel a little sorry for her.

My family wants to buy parents.

Food rations for his wife, children, and the eldest son's family

The total amount is not small at all.

After observation

Grain prices have not yet risen sharply

Everyone buy separately

Avoid buying too much at once

attract attention

Shunzi, could you bring back a batch of coarse grains for me?

I went to buy paper, ink, pens, and primers.

Third Master Zhao bought more grain

There is already stock at home

Enough to eat is enough

The amount of food in Xiaoyu's space is far greater than what outsiders can see.

There will definitely be enough to eat.

Dad, the weather warmed up late this year.

Our village has already purchased grain collectively.

Do you also secretly keep some at home?

If you are worried about being seen

Transport it back tonight

Dig a dry, deep pit and hide it

Even the elderly in your village feel something is wrong.

I won't gamble with my family's lives.

Tomorrow I'll have your two brothers-in-law go and buy them separately.

No need to rush, buy slowly

Food can be stored

I'm buying peace of mind.

Uncle, what are you buying these for?

For your older brother

I also wanted to learn to read when I was a child.

But he was beaten by his father.

My mother even called me a pig brain.

Ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth

Since then

I never mentioned studying again.

It must be Old Man Zhao pressuring him to subsidize Zhao Dawen again.

Hey hey

Dad really wants to learn to read

I might be stupid.

Don't be disgusted

Others learn it in one go

I can always remember it after ten tries.

Write your surname first

The character is Zhao.

I never thought I'd be able to read one day.

Starting today

Learn together as a family

No one is allowed to laugh at anyone.

Dad, don't use excessive force on your wrist.

Write it slowly

If someone had taught me like this when I was a child

Perhaps they're not blind anymore.

Third brother, what do you think of the weather?

How can I see it?

See with your eyes

If the snow doesn't melt, we'll keep waiting.

The weather can't stay cold forever.

The village chief said it might delay spring planting.

Dad told me to ask.

How much grain have you prepared?

Enough for my family to eat

How much did you buy?

It depends on your own pocket.

The old house has a large population.

All their savings were stolen.

You have plenty of money

Why don't we buy some for everyone first?

I'll pay it back slowly in the future.

Who are you all?

I will take care of my parents' food.

The second brother's family has labor power.

The eldest brother has a house and income from teaching.

It's not my turn to raise it.

If disaster truly strikes

Are you just going to watch your nephew starve to death?

You are the child's father

Big brother too

Really unable to make ends meet

First, sell the eldest brother's house in the county town.

Then sell the land you were allocated

family property

They're just waiting for me to spend money.

There is no such logic in the world.

I originally thought the three-bedroom apartment should be covered.

But thinking of my father, who would rather sell Gong Zhongtian...

Don't touch the eldest brother's house

I felt that my third brother was right.

I see

Don't try to shirk your parents' share.

I'll figure out a way for the others myself.

According to the documents and the previously agreed number

I have not missed a single case.

The third brother said

The amount of food given to my parents will not be insufficient.

The third family has plenty of grain.

He couldn't buy more.

Your mother and I eat little.

But we can't just ignore Da Wen's family.

He only recognizes your second aunt.

Big brother wants to eat

He then sold his house in the county town.

That was the foundation upon which the scholar established himself in the county town.

How can it be sold?

Gongzhong's fields can be sold

The older brother's house cannot be sold.

The money was not distributed to the family.

My word doesn't count.

If things continue like this...

My family will be dragged down with us.

Dad took advantage of the fact that grain prices hadn't skyrocketed yet

Settle the accounts

The eldest brother's house contains palace silver.

It also includes the blood and sweat of our second wife.

Either give me the money or

Either sell

We are officially splitting up.

You insist on breaking up a family.

The eldest is your own brother.

You still want to take his house?

The house wasn't bought by the eldest brother through his own abilities.

Parents gave silver

The Wang family also contributed money.

Our second wife has had little food and clothing all these years.

All the savings were used to support his education.

Why did only the eldest brother get the house in the end?

You're jealous of your brother's success.

If he becomes successful, he can support his wife and children himself.

Stop eating my food and using my things.

If we don't make things clear today...

I won't get up.

If this continues...

My child will be dragged down by the eldest son's family sooner or later.

father

Separating from the family does not mean neglecting elderly care.

I only ask that each family live their own lives.

The second brother's desire to separate the family may not be a bad thing.

Sell ​​the house

You can get silver

The house was burgled repeatedly.

It was already unlucky.

The house was sold

It will be difficult to buy it again later.

You are a scholar

She can also teach

Wait until school starts to earn tuition fees

Still worried about not being able to afford a better one

Now we don't distinguish

The eldest son, Zheng Yiwen, was to be placed in the palace.

The second wife is also watching you closely since you separated the family.

You are the true head of the household.

Who do you want to spend money on?

Nobody can control it.

Okay, I'll listen to you this time.

Houses in county towns cannot be sold.

That was my family's savings accumulated over many years.

It will also be a place where the children can live in the future.

No house available for rent

Now the family is short of food and money.

Getting the silver first is the most important thing.

The money is in your hands

She'll only be coaxed away by Xu Xiaohong

If my sister doesn't tolerate me

I will leave.

Why say it so harshly?

The house is mine

I'll sell if I want.

You're a woman, so stop interrupting.

good

This time I listened to Xiaohong's suggestion to divide the family property.

Houses can also be sold

Xiang Gong Junming

Leaving this big family

We will definitely be able to make our lives better.

Dad, I also agree to separate the family.

Houses in county towns can be sold

The silver was distributed according to the rules.

You bastard, I'll pay for your books, buy you a house, and sell your land!

You're now trying to destroy this family for a woman.

It's not that I want to demolish it.

It's because my second brother can't tolerate us.

After breaking up, each went their own way.

Instead, it's quiet

Brother, don't try to shift the blame to me.

If you are willing to support your wife and children yourself

Pay back parents' money

Why should I kneel until now?

Boss, you sold the house.

Where will we live in the future?

Second child, you live with your parents.

Did they really think they could shirk responsibility?

I am filial to my parents

But no longer supporting the eldest brother

After the family split, he got better off, but I didn't benefit from it.

Don't blame me if it's bad.

I will teach

Renting a house is

When there is silver

Of course, you can buy even better.

Kind words can't persuade a damned ghost.

Since both need to be divided

I couldn't stop it.

Tomorrow, I'll have the village chief and clan head settle all the accounts at once.

Go back inside.

Stop making a fuss.

The family fell apart as soon as they were separated.

Things have come to this point

It's all because you and Da Wen are never satisfied.

My husband really acted like a man today.

Dad is unreasonable

How can I hit you just because I'm unhappy?

It's worth it to get that slap in the face if it leads to a family division.

We'll live on our own from now on.

No one cares how much you eat anymore.

Do or not do work

Sold the house in the county town

Get the silver

Let's rent a clean courtyard for you to teach in.

I will take care of you.

Life will definitely be better than here.

That house represents the hard work and dedication of my maternal family.

Zhao Dawen, however, had already decided on the future.

It's all Xu Xiaohong's fault

Why was this determined back then?

A man can give me a good life

What's Second Brother doing here again?

I won't buy food for the whole family.

It's not about grain, it's about dividing the family property.

Dad called the village chief

The clan chief also sent me to call you.

I was assigned to another job a long time ago.

What does your division of the family have to do with me?

I don't know either

Perhaps you will be asked to be a witness.

Father has already agreed

Do it today

Yesterday I just wanted to incite infighting within the old house.

I never expected it would actually escalate to the point of splitting up the family property.

How could the old man bear to part with his eldest brother?

It's not just about who's the eldest brother now.

The first and second wives were completely separated.

Third brother, come with me.

Dad, go away! Grandpa and Grandma have been biased for so many years.

If my second uncle doesn't separate...

They'll be dragged down sooner or later.

Most old houses don't keep lunch for guests.

My mother and I will make it for you.

Spicy stir-fried gourd, stir-fried beef, and pork rib soup

Also fried chicken

Okay, I'll go see how this drama ends.

Since my maternal grandfather called the village chief and clan chief...

The division of property will not be over anytime soon.

The old house was poor and stingy.

They definitely won't leave any food for me.

According to custom, all witnesses should be entitled to a meal together.

Your grandfather didn't invite anyone when he divided our property last time.

This time will probably be the same.

Let's prepare some spicy stir-fried gourd for Dad.

Stir-fried beef

Radish and pork rib stew

Heat up another plate of fried chicken

Eldest sister is the best

The third son was just separated last time.

Now they've separated again.

I've really thought it through.

Large branches of a tree

Children all have their own thoughts.

Since we can't keep it

So they went with them.

I am already an outsider

But he was summoned to listen to a family division speech that had nothing to do with him.

Let's start with houses, land, and grain.

To avoid regretting it later

Old houses are divided according to current residents.

It belongs to the family that lives in whichever house it is.

Farm tools and existing grain were provided by

The village counted the number of people in both households.

My older brother's family has more houses than ours.

It's also more spacious than ours.

If we keep arguing about this, we won't be able to separate.

Listen to Dad

What about the houses in the county town?

Sold

The money obtained from the sale will be divided again.

The silver for the mansion was divided into three parts.

One main house

Two rooms

Your mother and I will keep a portion for our retirement.

We will live with our second child from now on.

The eldest son receives an additional one tael of pension every year.

Dad doesn't follow me

You live in the county town

How many times a year do I come back?

They refused to take us into the city.

Do you want to starve?

My parents followed me

This means I'll have to farm for my second brother's old age.

The burden after the family division didn't lighten much.

My in-laws' care in their old age, along with the support of the two parties, remains my responsibility.

The house cannot be sold

There was silver from my family inside.

It was the only place our family could stay in the county town.

What do women know?

After the family splits up, I will teach to earn money.

You can live in a rented courtyard.

You make it sound so easy

Selling a house is easy

How many years will it take to buy it back?

My sister's husband is capable

Leaving this family will only make life better.

Don't cause trouble in front of the village chief and clan leader.

Makes my husband lose face

Why

The document has already stated

The house has not yet been sold.

If the first wife changes her mind

Can we still renegotiate?

No need to resell

That house has been mine for many years

The hard-earned wealth from her maternal family

Now, a single sentence from her husband is enough to make him abandon her.

Starting today, the first and second wives will be completely separated.

Each living their own lives

No involvement

Sell ​​the house, split the proceeds, and then rent another house.

She truly believed that money could last forever.

One

Now that the matter is settled

Then we left.

The witness was busy all morning

Offering to stay for a meal is the most basic courtesy.

The Zhao family did this last time.

This time it's the same.

They've utterly disgraced the entire clan.

Ask me to sit for half a day

There wasn't even a sip of hot water.

Was it just so I could watch them make a scene?

Come to my house for a drink.

Xiaoyu must have cooked a delicious meal.

good

My parents said my grandfather wouldn't leave food for me.

The eldest sister guessed correctly.

Haha, your older sister is a genius!

Your father separated you.

Now they've split up the other two rooms.

This house looks crowded.

My heart has long since scattered.

It has nothing to do with me

I just want to live my life well.

Zhao Dawen acted hastily because of your intervention

The price is much lower than the normal market price.

I just want to get the cash as soon as possible.

Every brick and tile in this house was bought with money from my family.

You for Xu Xiaohong

They don't even want the children's home anymore.

Stop talking nonsense, I've got the money!

Wait until I get rich from teaching

Buy another bigger one

My husband is capable

Why does my sister always say such discouraging things?

After the handover of the house

The silver was divided into three parts according to the document.

Give a portion to your parents

The first wife and the second wife each received their respective quotas.

Wang was forbidden from touching the money.

Or sew it into the lining of a cotton-padded jacket.

We'll take turns wearing it.

The stuff Dad sewed into his cotton-padded trousers was stolen.

That thief even dared to search people's bodies.

Clothing is even less safe

If all else fails

One person guards for a day

The person who guards the money doesn't eat, drink, or sleep.

To avoid being drugged again

This is the only way.

I wish I hadn't sold the house

The house can't be moved.

Now the silver is in hand

Instead, it's a mountain of hot potatoes.

It's not safe on the roof, underground, or inside the walls.

The thief ransacked the house so accurately last time.

Obviously, he is very brave.

Da Yong, you're the best at hiding things.

Is there a safer method?

Dad, my family and I are all prepared.

They took turns guarding the silver without eating or sleeping.

Is there any other good way?

Does this mean I'll have to sleep with my eyes open from now on?

I want to go to a place

A thief could never steal it.

Entrust the silver to the third son for safekeeping

You're crazy! Let's live with the second son!

Why should the silver be given to the third son?

The third son is rich.

They won't be greedy for our little bit.

His house has high walls and iron gates

There are also two dogs.

Even if it really got stolen

He can afford to pay it back.

We'll only take as much as we need.

It's better than holding it every day and being afraid to sleep.

It is safe to keep the silver in the third room.

I can also take advantage of the opportunity to withdraw money to go out and make frequent visits.

Dad's method is good.

We'll send our Erfu's too.

Whether it's needed depends on the third brother's mood.

I disagree

Can you hold onto it?

Last time I held him while sleeping, he took it away.

Lose it again

Our whole family really have to go begging.

My parents and I are planning to deposit our money at my third brother's house.

Should we include my brother's share?

Why give your own money to someone else?

From now on, I'll have to ask my third brother for permission to buy even a needle or a handful of salt.

How inconvenient

Both our house and the house in the county town have been burgled.

The third brother's house is the safest.

Who knows if they can get it back intact after sending it in?

Third brother has money

That doesn't mean I don't care about others.

If all the money is sent to the village committee

I then had no further chance to make a move.

I keep it myself.

No need for the third brother to worry.

snort

what ever

Lose it again later

Don't come crying to everyone.

I'll be frank with my third brother.

My dad and I want to put the money we got from you.

Dad really trusts me to entrust his retirement savings to him.

Weren't you always afraid I'd take advantage of my older brother?

Now it's your turn to keep it safe.

It's not a gift for you.

Your home is safe.

No one can sleep with the money in the old house.

Can be stored

But the amount must be counted in person.

Write down the credentials

How much will be left over after taking it?

Every single one must be recorded

Even brothers write this

The closer the brothers are, the more they should understand.

To avoid future misunderstandings

My father would do anything for my eldest brother.

I agree.

When did you learn to write?

Yeah, my daughter taught me.

It's not well written now.

He can still take the imperial examination for children in the future.

They've entrusted all their assets to us.

What if things become unclear later?

Therefore, a receipt is required.

Space is the safest

No one can steal it

But we can't take the blame for their messy accounts.

The money has been deposited.

Why

Was the purse opened by the third wife?

Count in person

Also wrote the receipt

Dad's move was indeed brilliant.

Silver not lost

The third brother can't deny it either.

The two most valuable pieces of silver belonging to the Zhao family all went to the third branch of the family.

Right now, only the one in Zhao Dawen's hand remains.

Luckily I stopped it.

If I were to give even this money away...

What's the point of me staying?

Heaven and Earth, Dark and Yellow

The primordial universe

Mother followed along and wrote

Knowing more characters

In the future, you will be able to read storybooks and see fine lines on your own.

What does the universe mean?

Heaven and Earth and All Things

Today we're only serving our parents and our second wife's portion.

The grain delivered by the third branch was for specific purposes.

Cannot be divided haphazardly

Several people in the family are waiting for dinner.

Why should only your second wife be allowed to eat?

This is a special food ration stored up for the two elderly people.

The eldest son's family has many able-bodied members.

They should prepare their own food.

Dad, you'll live with us from now on.

The grain provided by my third brother is only for you two.

The eldest brother sold the house and received a share of the money.

Why should I continue to eat your food?

Why do we need to be so calculating among family members?

If the eldest brother eats

Our family also ate it.

Food supplies run out

Will the third brother make more?

He said it before

Whoever misappropriates it is responsible.

The third son really keeps his word.

The only option was to have the second wife put the grain away.

Tell the eldest brother that from now on, everyone should eat separately.

We ran out of food after the family split up.

First give to the second wife

Let them take us out for a few days of food

I will go to the county town to rent a house tomorrow.

How long can 200 coins last for a family of six?

You didn't give me a single penny from the sale of the house.

Money needs to be used to rent a house and buy equipment.

Only if it's handed over to you will your family coax you away.

Wait until we move into the city

I will naturally arrange the family's meals.

I haven't even found a place to stay yet.

Are six people supposed to live on air?

I, a dignified scholar

Can't find a place to rent?

My sister and brother-in-law don't earn money easily.

We women should be thrifty and manage our households well.

What's your older sister eating tonight?

Brown rice porridge and cornbread

You don't know what the situation is like at home?

My sister thinks I waste food.

I won't eat tonight.

What are you afraid of her for?

She didn't eat her food.

Don't make your sister angry

Husband, just bring me two steamed buns.

I don't drink the soup.

One

The person in charge is the same as last time.

Let's hold on

Let's see who did it.

Fortunately, all the money was with the third son.

Tonight is the night to die.

I'm going to catch that bastard too.

I can't take it anymore.

Me too

ah

Erliuzi took the grain from last time

Promise to share my silver

But no one has been seen.

He's already fooled me once.

We can't wait any longer

This man once promised to give me dignity.

Now they can't even afford a decent meal.

Zhao Dawen, don't blame me.

If you really have the ability

We can earn it later.

ah

Another thief! Get up!

Hehehe

Thank goodness

If the silver is still in the cabinet

This time, there will be nothing left.

feeling

Ah ah

Where did Little Red go?

She ran away; she took the money from the sale of the house.

They even stole the grain.

Zhao Dawen, is this the good woman you've been desperately protecting?

The house was sold because of her

He also ran off with the silver.

You have to pay me back for my house.

The way to make a living by compensating for children

Don't I feel bad that this crazy woman lost her money?

If you keep causing trouble, I'll divorce you.

Father, it was you who brought the thief back.

Why hit your mother?

Go to the outhouse

The silver from last time might be hidden there.

ah

Open your dog eyes

This woman has been treating our house like a bed of convenience for a long time.

First grain theft

The second theft of Tibetan silver

She did it all.

Xiao Hong is pregnant with my child.

She probably just went out for a walk.

To relax, you need to take all your money with you.

White flour, refined rice, salt, and meat

I didn't take the whole grains.

Simply because he couldn't carry it.

Report to the authorities today.

Xu Xiaohong wanted to use the Zhao family's money to live a life of luxury.

She dream

If someone comes to snatch someone

Why not snatch up the younger Nina Wang?

He just happened to be taken away.

Your money is gone.

You've run out of premium grains in your kitchen.

How long will you keep lying to yourself?

This is the true love you keep talking about.

He took our last payment for the room.

You still speak up for him

The second son went to find the village chief.

This matter must be reported to the authorities.

He dreamed of living a life of luxury with the Zhao family's money.

If the stolen money from last time is truly recovered

His secret savings, hidden for over a decade, will also be exposed.

As long as it can be found

Even if I get beaten, I'll accept it.

What are you still standing there for?

I'll go right now.

I really wish I could drag Xu Xiaohong back right now.

She was pregnant

It's impossible to be so heartless.

Father, if she is really pregnant with your child

They should run away with the money.

You have nothing now

What was she trying to achieve by leaving this behind?

It's definitely her.

He took all his clothes with him.

Sold all my treasury money.

Last night, he unusually went into the kitchen to start a fire.

But they don't drink brown rice soup.

Only take two steamed buns

Last time, the whole family took Chinese medicine.

He also went into the kitchen

The large pit next to the latrine was his

The place where the stolen goods were hidden last time

There was just so much grain back then

He, a woman, can't move it.

There must be accomplices.

The Zhao family has many clever people.

He was completely fooled by a 16-year-old girl.

Seal off the village entrance immediately

To avoid further delay

Your whole family was

A woman played the trick several times in a row

Now that the person has escaped, they've finally thought to report it to the authorities.

The clues are already pitifully few.

Xu Xiaohong's appearance and accent

Write down their ages and possible destinations.

She carried a large amount of silver and grain.

You can't go far alone

If there are accomplices

They may have already left by car.

We must find it.

That silver was the blood and sweat of generations of the Zhao family.

Tonight I'll have someone ask the coachman and the neighboring village.

Who has ever seen a young woman traveling with a backpack?

Write them all down

I'll go to the county government office to report the case tomorrow.

Will Xiaohong go to jail after reporting it to the authorities?

She's carrying my child.

Brother, you should think about your father who got sick from the medication she gave him.

Think of the whole family being robbed

They're still protecting the thief.

You're hopeless.

Who will come to the city with me tomorrow?

The eldest brother lost money

The second son knew the whole story.

You two go

Who dares to delay?

We'll pretend we never had him.

Why

Xu Xiaohong's departure this time

He may never come back.

This is all karma he brought on himself.

The sooner you set off, the sooner you have a better chance of finding it.

Snowy roads are difficult to travel

I didn't sleep well again last night.

It's okay to be one day late.

The silver is yours

The woman was brought back by you.

If you don't go today, you'll never set foot in the Zhao family's house again.

In the vast sea of ​​people

Every second of delay increases the chance of it never being found.

If the eldest brother doesn't want the money

I still want my private savings of over ten years.

You should first explain Xu Xiaohong's...

Origin, accent, height, and clothing

All I know is that her name is Xu Xiaohong

No household registration documents

No address for maternal family

All I know is that her name is Xu Xiaohong

You don't even know where she came from.

He dared to bring her home as his wife

She said she had no father or mother.

Working for others in the county town

She may have frequented places of ill repute.

There might also be an accomplice from the village.

Last time a large amount of grain was moved away

He can't do it alone.

I will notify the car dealerships at the city gate and nearby towns to keep an eye out.

But the silver coins had no markings.

If the person has already changed clothes and gone far away

Finding extremely difficult

You should go back to the village and wait for news.

I went to the county town several times to inquire.

There has been no news.

The village's Erliuzi was nowhere to be found.

The two must have already left together.

I sit at the door every day cursing.

My voice is hoarse.

Not a single coin of the lost silver has been recovered.

I believe Xu Xiaohong was simply tricked by her accomplices.

I'll bring the kids back sooner or later.

Don't wait for him if he loves you.

They wouldn't take all the money.

You don't even have money for rent now.

Will he come back and starve with you?

I will find him someday

So what if we find it?

Continue to treat him like an ancestor.

The fields cannot be plowed normally yet

Rice and flour in the grain store

Prices of whole grains and coarse grains are starting to rise.

Few grain carts came from the south

Inventory is getting tighter every day

Today's price

You might not be able to buy it tomorrow.

In just a few days

Grain prices are 30% higher than before.

Has the price of grain gone up again?

how's it going

What's the price in the county?

It rose by 30%.

Those who have no food reserves should not wait any longer.

Buy whole grains if you can.

Don't just focus on white flour and rice

The grain purchased earlier was far from enough to last until the autumn harvest.

If spring plowing continues to be delayed

They might not even recover next year.

Our money is at my third brother's house.

Should we take some out?

Take a flight tomorrow

Silver can't be eaten.

Food is the real lifeline

Silver can't buy food; it's just a piece of scrap metal.

I'll go to the third room to collect the money at dawn tomorrow.

Grain prices are rising too fast

I want to take 10 taels to buy grain.

There are many people in the family.

We need to prepare until at least the second half of next year.

become

First, bring the old receipt.

I will write another receipt for the withdrawn money.

Remember how much is left

This really is what you wrote.

Otherwise, it must have been written by a ghost.

I teach Xiaoyu to read every day.

Writing receipts is no problem now.

Three brothers

Zhao Dawen was a scholar.

Zhao can now write characters.

I'm the only one left who can't read a single word.

I just can't accept being...

The third brother, whom I used to look down on the most, fell behind.

I want to learn to write too.

Did the third family hire a tutor?

If I really have three sons, they can learn from me too.

Teaching one is teaching

Teaching a few is still teaching

Why waste tuition fees?

What's wrong? My third brother doesn't want to give it.

The money was given readily.

But the reply was written by his own hand.

No fever

Why are you talking nonsense?

The third brother is the same as us.

I couldn't even write my own name before.

I saw with my own eyes that his writing was inferior to my older brother's.

The word "可" is correct.

Let's settle the cost of the grain first.

We'll talk about writing later.

I plan to buy it in several installments.

It cost a total of 10 taels.

Mainly whole grains

Small amounts of refined grains

Avoid buying too much at once to avoid attracting attention.

I was planning to have the whole family go to the fields as soon as the weather warmed up.

Go into the mountains again to dig for wild vegetables

Picking and drying mushrooms

Save food rations as much as possible

10 taels is no small amount.

The money he received from buying the house was reduced by nearly half.

No matter how valuable the silver is, you can't cook it.

This year's spring plowing was late

There will be a harvest in autumn.

Grain prices may not drop immediately next year.

Dig up more wild vegetables and dry more mushrooms

Every little bit helps.

How much of the money Dad takes from the third brother will he give to the eldest brother?

The older brother then wrote out how many IOUs.

I will keep the IOU.

If he doesn't pay, we'll take the fields in his village to settle the debt.

This idea is good for dividing things up.

We can no longer use our retirement money to fill his hole.

Our children also need to eat and get married.

Can't spend my whole life paying off the debts of the first wife

Da Yong

You can stop by Maihua's house on your way.

Tell her to stock up more

Your dad is worried that grain prices will rise further.

I kindly reminded you a while ago

My younger sister scolded me for being stupid from farming.

They said as long as there is silver

Grain is available anytime

Since she has such a good idea

So they lived off the money.

I will no longer go and get scolded.

She is your younger sister.

I reminded you once.

Kindness and righteousness have been exhausted

Whoever wants to go can go.

Dad still has retirement savings.

I'll borrow a few ounces for emergencies.

We can't let the scholar's family continue to live crammed in the village.

Sure enough, they set their sights on their father's money as soon as the family property was divided.

This debt must be settled face-to-face tonight.

If Dad takes money from his pension to give to my eldest brother in the future

A promissory note must also be written.

Write as much as you take

I will keep the IOU.

Big brother won't pay.

He then used the land he was allocated to pay off the debt.

I am your father

You still want to manage my own pension?

You come with me

All the money is gone

My older brother won't support you.

Ultimately, the burden fell entirely on the second wife.

Filial piety is acceptable

Subsidies without limits are unacceptable.

Grain prices have risen so much

You go hunting in the mountains every day

Will there be no money in hand?

Hurry up and take it out to buy food for the family.

You all took all the prey I hunted.

The silver had long been looted.

How did you treat me?

I don't know

I am your father

Lao Tzu is short of food.

The son should then find a way.

Borrow some first

Return it after the autumn harvest

No money

Not a penny

One life or two

Take it

Stop pretending to be poor.

If you're so capable, don't beg us to collect your corpse.

Where did I die?

It's none of your business.

My food is actually hidden in a dry cave deep in the mountains.

That was a temporary shelter during hunting trips.

The villagers dared not go deep

Much safer than home

They are not short of money

I just can't bear to spend my own money.

As long as filial piety prevails

They would then come to their door again and again.

When will I finally be able to...?

Get rid of these two people completely

Xiao Ping is a real scoundrel.

Leaving her own son alone in a dilapidated house

They even come to plunder every few days.

I wonder if Xiao Lei has any food.

That kid is stubborn.

They probably wouldn't speak even if they were starving.

He saved Xiaoyu

We're so hungry we have to...

He was able to live on his own for so many years

They have their own ways of hiding things.

Xiao Ping couldn't shave him clean.

Dad, I plan to rent a house in the county town tomorrow.

All pots, pans, bedding, and grain need to be bought again.

Please lend me 10 taels first.

10 taels is indeed a bit too much.

That's 8 taels.

I will definitely pay back the money once the school starts classes.

Let's hear what Dad has to say first.

If they really gave eight taels

Not a single penny less on the IOU

You really dare to ask for eight taels?

Five taels, this is the last transaction.

From now on, your whole family will starve to death.

And don't try to take my and your mother's retirement money again.

Rent a house, buy food, and add pots and pans.

Five ounces is not enough

Eight taels is already the amount I calculated carefully.

Go prepare for the move first.

Dad, no one is farming our fields this year.

My second brother helped plant it for a year.

He received 20%

Brothers should always lend a hand

My family owns more than just our own land.

We still need to cultivate our parents' land.

All the children had to go to the fields.

Where do I have the strength to do it for my older brother?

The third brother has no land.

He and his third sister-in-law are both capable workers.

The older brother is looking for him

I think this is a good idea.

Running University

We'll go find your third brother.

What are your family's plans now that the snow has melted?

Study hard

Everyday Upward

The rest is just eating, drinking, and having fun.

Do whatever you want

Such a leisurely and dignified life

It should have belonged to me, the scholar.

People can't be idle.

I'll find you a job.

Your family has no land.

Three laborers wasted

Your older brother is going to teach in the county town.

No one in the family farms.

Why don't you plant them for him?

I had already guessed that my grandfather

Nothing good will come from visiting today.

Everything that grows is mine.

Promising in the fields

I'll give you 20%.

Hmph

Then I'll buy a few acres of land too.

The eldest brother gets 20%.

Tell him not to teach

Returning to the village to farm

My hands are for holding a pen.

How can you take a hoe?

My hands are naturally meant to do things for you.

My eldest brother goes to our father whenever he needs something.

Are you still breastfeeding?

He is your older brother.

I am also your biological son.

Why does holding a book make him seem noble?

He dumped all the mess he left on me.

If no one is willing to plant, then hire laborers.

If pawning it doesn't work, then sell the land.

Can land be sold so easily?

Didn't you already sell two acres for your elder brother?

Uncle, please help your brother this once.

If not, I'll make myself clear.

Now and the future

I will never go down to the ground again.

Let alone 20%

My older brother gave me all the profits.

I don't care.

My family doesn't lack that little bit of food and money now.

Brother, don't try to mess with me anymore.

I have a bad temper.

Sometimes I can't control my fists

If you don't want to farm the land, then forget it.

The eldest son is still short of money after going to the city.

I want to retrieve what I've stored here.

Take 8 taels from your retirement money

Didn't we agree that we'd only borrow 5 taels out of 8?

That's my money.

Take it if I tell you to.

Why waste so much time on nonsense?

You can write down the account details first.

Press your handprint again

Grandpa received a pension.

It's not our money.

The quantity, purpose, and remaining amount must be specified.

So that they won't say we gave them too little later.

I will write now

To avoid writing in front of my father.

He then scolded me for being unfilial.

The handwriting is not difficult to read

At least I can recognize every single stroke.

Let me practice for a few more months

It's even better written than my older brother's.

Hahaha

Father first pressed his handprint

I used my own money

Would you really try to cheat me out of eight ounces?

Even fathers and sons should keep clear accounts.

The second brother put his fingerprint on the money he withdrew.

the same as you

You entrusted the silver to me for safekeeping.

I then had to reconcile the accounts every time.

Otherwise, who will be responsible if money is short later?

What if I don't press it?

Then it cannot be taken away.

If you think I am untrustworthy

You can take the rest of your pension money back with you.

I will no longer keep it.

To avoid getting entangled

You unfilial son

If I am unfilial

What is the eldest brother?

Dad, please stay for dinner.

Xiaoyu stewed meat

The road outside is slippery

I'll take you back.

Need not

Grandpa for Uncle

They're even willing to take 8 taels of pension money.

If it becomes unclear later

They'll definitely blame you again.

There is paper and fingerprints

He couldn't deny it even if he wanted to.

The reason I suffered losses in the past was because

They don't keep any accounts at home.

Whoever shouts the loudest is right.

From now on, we'll record our business transactions like this.

Relatives and friends are the same

To avoid good intentions turning into enmity

Father, how much did you take?

8 taels

The eldest son's rent, household chores, and food all require money.

5 liang is not enough

Last night it was 5 taels

You can live with me in your old age.

After the money ran out

Would your older brother support you?

In the end, it was the second wife who filled the hole.

This is my parents' own money.

It's none of your business

The family division agreement clearly states...

My parents followed me

You can take 8 taels.

The older brother must write an IOU.

When will you return?

What can I use to repay this?

Write it all clearly

The family borrowed some money

Why bother writing an IOU?

snort

The third brother even had to put his fingerprint on his own father's fingerprints when he withdrew money.

Why can't the older brother write?

If you don't write down these 8 taels, no one can take them away.

The second wife is no longer entirely under my control.

So what do you want?

Even if Dad borrows his own money, you still need to approve it.

A brother who can be trusted cannot stand by and watch his elder brother die.

8 taels is too much.

Two ounces a month is enough to rent a house and buy food.

Add a little more

3 liang at most

And a promissory note must be written.

Second brother, are you trying to control me?

You come with me

Silver Flower Light for the Elderly

Your older brother won't take you into the city.

In the end, it was still my family who bore the burden.

If parents only support the eldest brother

What's the point of splitting up the family property?

I will repay in the future

Then let's write it down in black and white.

Anyone can say it.

Second brother, are you going to be unfilial too?

Filial piety is acceptable

Everything should not be taken to excess.

I won't benefit from my brother's success in the future.

Don't come looking for me if it's bad.

The two families have separated.

Just treat it as a visit between ordinary relatives

If I insist on giving eight taels to the eldest brother

You will not support your parents.

I will still take care of you and Mother.

But family scandals shouldn't be aired in public.

Let's ask the village chief and clan head to judge this matter.

The son who should be caring for his parents in their old age should not stand idly by.

Watching the old man fill in all the bottom layer for the other party

None of my three sons listen to me.

I, as the head of the household, have long been a figurehead.

My blood

Between brothers

You had to make it so ugly.

If the older brother repays the money on time

This paper will never see the light of day.

If you don't repay the debt, there's still the land you were allocated to me, brother, to offset it.

Hire people yourself

If parents have the strength

First, help the second wife you live with.

Instead of continuing to revolve around the eldest brother

This is what you mean by starting over.

It's not as spacious as the old house.

Temporary stay

Wait until I teach and earn money

They will naturally move to a bigger courtyard.

The Wu family heard that the Zhao family was selling their house.

indifferent attitude after theft

He's been slow to give a definite answer.

Does the Wu family look down on us?

Don't worry, you have both good looks and talent.

The Wu family doesn't want it.

So the mother found a richer one.

We can't let the third and second wives laugh at us.

The old house had a study.

There were side rooms and servants to work in.

Now a family of five is crammed here.

Even the pots and pans need to be bought again.

It's just a temporary stop.

Once I receive my tuition fees

Add more gradually

Don't reach for anything that wasn't included in the family division agreement.

I, a dignified scholar

Would I really covet your broken pot?

If you are not greedy, then let go.

Why is this story written this way?

When was that dynasty?

Dad, just because I know the character for "person" doesn't mean I know everything.

Ask again

My half-full bucket of water is really about to run dry.

Then I'll go to the village school to audit classes.

You, a grown man, sitting among a group of little kids

I don't feel embarrassed.

Never mind then.

We'll hire a live-in tutor ourselves.

You learn, I learn too.

The whole family learns

A gentleman from a county town may not be suitable.

If you want to find the best, go to the prefectural city.

You can also buy a carriage while you're in the prefectural city.

Traveling

It is precisely because you learn and I learn

Mother and Pear Blossom also learned

There are many scholars in the prefectural city

We'll find someone with good character.

Deeply knowledgeable

Great, my daughter has a good idea!

Besides me, in our family

All women

Both dogs are female.

Girl lacking masculinity

When are you going to find a son-in-law who will live with you?

I don't usually go out.

Where to find

I don't know any of the boys in the village who are only a teenager.

Even male dogs aren't familiar with me.

Why don't you take a look at your Uncle Liu's son?

Uncle Liu is not short of money

Not stupid

How could we possibly marry our eldest son into our family?

If he hears you say that again, he might chase after you and beat you up.

Why

I'm still young

There will always be sons-in-law in the future.

You can buy it before going to the prefectural city.

A fierce male dog came back to guard the house.

The Xiao family is bullying Xiao Lei again.

Xiao Ping, that bastard father

He can't stand not tormenting his own son for a day.

Dad, this is their family matter.

Can you handle this once?

You can't control someone for a lifetime.

You can't control someone for a lifetime.

Even if we meet today, we can't pretend we didn't hear.

Grain prices have all gone up

You go hunting in the mountains every day

How could there be no money?

I couldn't find it last time.

You definitely kept it to yourself.

You've already taken all the prey and money.

If it doesn't exist, it doesn't exist.

You unfilial son

Weren't you being quite noisy just now?

I could hear it clearly even through the wall.

Why are you mute now?

Xiao Ping, you bully your own son with your wife every day!

I'd be ashamed to be from the same village as you.

How do we discipline children?

It has nothing to do with you

Just because you have a little money doesn't mean you can boss the Xiao family around.

I just saw injustice and stood up for what was right.

Who is Xiao Lei?

He is Xiao Ping's biological son.

You come and raid the house whenever you have nothing to do.

Does stealing prey do justice to his deceased mother?

He brought misfortune upon his parents, grandparents, and master; they all died because of him.

Do you think he's good?

So I took it home to raise.

Let's see if he'll bring you all to your deaths.

If he really can bring bad luck to his relatives

The first ones who should die are you.

The elderly person is frail and eats poorly.

What's so strange about dying from illness?

Blaming all the misfortunes on a child

It was just a rumor someone made up to bully him.

Which despicable person spread such words?

Aren't they afraid of being struck by lightning for doing too many bad things?

Zhao Dashu, you don't have a son?

Those two girls will get married sooner or later.

You're still pretending to be a good person here.

I'm not afraid that the family business will be ruined in your hands.

Zhao Xiaoyu, that little slut

Relying on having a few stinking coins

Who are you calling a little slut?

When I die, is it...?

I don't hit women (Xiao Ping)

If you're a man, then fight me one-on-one.

If you beat me, I'll respect you as a true man.

If you lose, you'd better keep your wife's foul mouth in check.

Zhao Laosan, this is our family matter.

I will not fight you

If you're afraid to hit her, then don't let the woman throw a tantrum in front of you.

How dare you insult my daughter?

I'll beat you to death, you foul-mouthed bastard.

Girl, let me help you.

Xiao Ping, are you dead?

Help me!

Your wife just insulted my daughter.

You didn't even fart.

Now she's being beaten.

I suddenly remembered that I am a man.

I have suffered countless injustices since I was a child.

The first time someone wanted to

I'm willing to break ties with the Xiao family.

If the stepmother doesn't come to take things away

If you don't swear, you won't get beaten.

Enough, if you keep hitting him, someone will really die.

We are in the right

Don't end up losing money on medicine.

He can curse me.

You can't scold my daughter

Xiao Ping, I was beaten up like this.

You didn't even dare to stretch out your hand.

Are you even a man?

They have a lot of people.

If I take action

Things will only get bigger.

Let's go home first.

You coward!

He only takes his anger out on me and the kids at home.

Once outside, he acts like a dog.

It seems that Yang is the one who truly holds power in the Xiao family.

Xiao Ping was often beaten.

What a disgrace to men!

Let's go home

Uncle Zhao and Aunt Zhao

Thank you all today.

If they bully you again

Dodge if you can

If you can't hide, come and call for help.

Don't bear it alone

Xiaoyu just mentioned going to the prefectural city.

First, buy a fierce male dog.

Find another teacher

Buy a carriage

You're still thinking about the live-in son-in-law, aren't you?

Daughter

Have you seen anything you like?

Let's decide this year and next.

When she comes of age, he will marry her.

I don't even know the boys in the village.

Where to find

Don't even think about Uncle Liu's family.

They don't lack money

Not stupid

The whole village is busy during spring plowing.

If the third son stays at home, the old house will only attract unwanted attention.

Why not go to the prefectural city to find the Master?

Enjoying sightseeing along the way for over a month

Wasn't the Liu family planning to move back to their old house?

No need to move

They were planning to build houses nearby after spring plowing.

Continue living in the front yard

Perfect for watching over our house

We'll set off the day after tomorrow.

Let him scold the start of spring plowing tomorrow

Everyone is busy

Who has time to listen to his wailing?

Dad, spring plowing tomorrow

Do you have anything else to say?

The land that your mother and I share is yours.

Your older brother hired a laborer.

I'm afraid outsiders will slack off.

We need to go to his field and keep an eye on him.

Since the eldest brother has paid someone...

Someone will naturally do the work.

Your legs are already weak.

And yet we still have to worry about him.

A laborer gets paid for a day

I wish I could work half a day less.

I won't feel at ease unless I see it with my own eyes.

Grain is the lifeblood of farmers.

One less swing of the hoe

There will be less grain after autumn.

Following the second home for retirement

But his heart still belongs entirely to the first wife.

Dad, I'm still young.

Really can't do it

You used to say that children were going to work in the fields too early.

He won't grow taller

This year's spring plowing was more than a month late.

We are racing against time.

Do as much as you can.

Mother, I'm already at the age where I should be looking for a partner.

Heaven and Earth

My hands got rough and my face got tanned.

Which rich young master would still be interested in me?

Once spring plowing is over, you'll be given less heavy work.

Mother has already asked a matchmaker to look at the potential partners.

It won't interfere with your marriage.

Just hang in there a little longer.

After planting this area, then rest.

If you haven't thoroughly searched that area, do it again.

Spread the seeds evenly

Don't try to fool me with my family's land.

The old man's employer only paid him one wage.

You asked us to flip through it twice.

It won't be finished even when it gets dark.

You're paid to do the work and you still dare to complain about it being too much?

Da Wen is a Xiucai (a scholar who passed the county-level imperial examination).

It really delayed his family's crops.

Can you afford to pay?

You can go with peace of mind.

We are here at home

After spring plowing is finished

I then found someone to build a house next door.

Don't move while you're still here.

I'll leave the dog and the yard to you.

If anyone comes to inquire

Then we said we should go out and find the teacher.

Uncle Liu, we'll bring you some delicious food when we come back.

Why

Ouch, my back!

Dad, where does it hurt?

Can the legs move?

My lower back and legs hurt.

Send me to Lao San's house first.

Other houses

They eat well and don't have to do spring plowing.

Just in time to take care of me

The second wife was so busy she barely had time to breathe.

Mother can't take care of people.

The three families are indeed the most relaxed.

Let's see a doctor first.

In case the bone is injured

Lifting back and forth makes it more serious

Dazhu went to fetch a doctor.

I went to find the third brother.

Where is my third brother?

Dad fell in the field

Hurry up and send him back to the old house.

The uncle and his family went out yesterday.

Go to the prefectural city to buy a carriage from the teacher.

I don't know when I'll be back.

Where are my third sister-in-law and Xiaoyu?

The pear blossoms have also gone.

The whole family went

Big Tree Loves His Wife So Much

How could he possibly go out to play by himself?

My family was exhausted from working in the fields.

The third wife, however, had plenty of time to travel and enjoy nature.

Why did they have to leave at this time?

Something happened at the old house

There's not even anyone to lend a hand.

They don't have land.

Are you suggesting I stay and wait to be called to work?

My father's retirement savings are still in my third brother's hands.

He doesn't want the money, so how can I withdraw it?

The uncle's family kept their money very safe.

Outsiders have no idea where it is.

How about this?

I'll lend you this first.

Let's go to the village chief's house to write an IOU.

Wait for the big tree to return

Then you can do the math yourselves.

They are all from the same village

You also need to sign your name

I can't read

Give it away for free

What if you say you didn't borrow it later?

Even brothers write receipts

We need to write more.

I wrote the IOU

Treating my father is the priority.

Lower back and leg sprain

Bed rest is required

Unable to get out of bed for a short period of time

Father was injured while tending to his elder brother's fields.

Why should the second wife serve him again?

I went to find my older brother.

What happened to my second brother's family?

Sister-in-law, come inside and talk.

Father fell and got injured in the field.

Now I'm lying down and can't move.

Spring plowing is underway at home

I simply can't spare anyone to take care of it.

The third son had no land.

Let him take his father over.

Unfortunately, my third brother's family went sightseeing in the prefectural city.

No one was left.

No one knows when he will return.

Father was injured because of my eldest brother's fields.

Who should be responsible this time?

Big brother knows what's going on, right?

They have no land.

All he does is play

Dad's injury was an accident.

You can't blame it all on me.

Why did Dad go to the fields?

Because my older brother hired a laborer.

He doesn't trust him to supervise you personally.

He is now faking injuries to his waist and legs.

Unable to get off the kang (heated brick bed)

The second wife is busy with spring plowing.

Who has time to bring water and feed them every day?

My second brother wants me to go back.

The eldest sister-in-law is the eldest daughter-in-law

The eldest brother was also Dad's most beloved son.

The old man was injured because of you

You have to choose one person.

We, the father and sons at home, can get along however we want.

The elderly are the most important

Pack a few clothes

I went back to the village with my second brother for a while.

Come back when Dad is better.

If I leave, who will fetch water, do laundry, and cook?

Ru Xin had just recovered from her leg injury.

How can a family of men be taken care of?

She's already a grown woman.

You always need to learn how to be a housekeeper

Ka-keung and Ka-tung can also help.

Why don't you go back yourself?

That's your biological father.

It was also for your field that you fell.

I still need to teach.

If it delays school

Where do tuition fees come from?

If the eldest brother doesn't even care about his injured father

I then invited the village chief and clan head to the county town to settle the matter.

The scholar was unfilial

The message was sent to the school and the county government.

I don't know if it can be saved.

Maintaining dignity

My second brother is right.

You go back first.

There are my father and several sons in the family.

It will be ready in a few days.

Mother, are you really leaving?

What will happen to the housework if you leave?

My hands get rough from carrying water and doing laundry.

How can I be a young mistress in the future?

Mother couldn't leave even if she didn't want to.

Your second uncle is watching

Your dad won't speak up for me.

Please bear with it for a few days.

When your grandpa can get out of bed

Mother came back immediately

Can't my third uncle's family take care of him?

Your third uncle's whole family went to the prefectural city for a trip.

We work ourselves to the bone for a bite to eat.

People ride in horse-drawn carriages to see the mountains and rivers.

This is fate.

What makes her, a poor girl, so special?

Mother, I am not reconciled.

The Wu family looks down on us

I will definitely find someone better in the future.

Overwhelm them all

Circumstances are stronger than people

How could the Song family compare to me before?

Now the third wife has money.

You don't even have to worry about what others think when you go out.

Ultimately, it's your father's fault for being useless.

I failed the exam for many years.

Even though there were servants in the house, someone still stole their money.

Take care of yourself first.

Don't count on your dad

If he is truly reliable

My mother wouldn't be living like this today.

Isn't it just fetching water and cooking?

If Mom can do it, I can definitely do it too.

How can it be so heavy?

Zhao Xiaoyu is now touring Fucheng by car.

But I'm doing manual labor here.

No one has helped me yet.

Such a big girl

Can't even hold a half-full bucket of water steady

What will I do when I get married in the future?

Hmph

How exactly does my mother manage to finish all these chores every day?

What to do if there is a fire?

Oh, my hair!

ah

The oil in the pan is heating up

How could you just leave it unattended?

Fortunately, the roof beams did not burn.

Otherwise, the entire courtyard would be lost.

Only a little bit of hair at the front was burned.

It's nothing serious about my face.

It will grow back after some time, don't cry.

My hair is gone.

Am I disfigured?

How will I ever get married again?

You'll have to wash the pot again later.

Stop using oil indiscriminately.

Mother, I can't take it anymore.

Please come back soon.

Mother, I can't take it anymore.

Please come back soon, haha.

Are you burning down your house?

Has the food been cooked?

Father, let Mother come back.

I went to the well to fetch water.

My hands were bleeding from being squeezed.

I want to cook a meal

The pot started burning again.

I really can't do it.

If this continues, I will die.

I also used to draw water from the well.

Do you know how scary deep wells are?

Over the years, the Wang family has given all of...

Household chores are not easy to handle.

Jiaqiang Jiadong

Go fetch water

Fill the water tank

We just came back from school.

We haven't rested yet.

The whole family needs to eat, hurry up!

Your sister is already this badly injured.

Should we let her continue to bring it up?

I understand, Dad.

Wash your face

Wash the pot and rinse some brown rice.

I'll start the fire for you.

I'll only cook porridge tonight.

Don't touch oil anymore

Father, you really can't live without Mother.

Why

Your grandpa isn't better yet.

Second Uncle won't let them go.

Let's just endure it.

If all else fails, buy steamed buns or bread.

I'll bring her back after spring planting is finished.

You continue to fill the water tank

I added firewood to the stove.

Dad, take a closer look.

Is my face injured?

Is all your hair gone?

My face is fine, just my forehead is a little red.

Not all of her hair is gone.

My bangs are burned

It can grow after a while.

My mother used to live at home

They never let me do heavy work.

They won't let me touch the stove to start a fire.

It's just that half of my eyebrows look like they've been burned off.

I don't know how long it will take for them to fully grow.

My eyebrows

The second son's family all went to work in the fields.

What are you dawdling for?

Hurry up and plant the fields in the main house.

Mother, I've come back to take care of Father.

Ru Xin was alone in the county town

He can't even cook.

Da Wen and his two sons had no one to do their laundry or cook.

Your father is out of danger.

No need to serve her

After spring plowing is completed

You go back to the city

A person with a heart as big as a heart

Can't you even cook a meal?

The second wife called me back.

Not taking care of the elderly

Rather, it was to save money on hiring private workers for the main house.

They treated me like an unpaid cow.

When I go back this time

I will never go back to this village.

I wonder if Dawen and the kids have had a hot meal yet.

Ru Xin is not good at housework

I'm really worried.

Just wait a few more days for spring plowing.

You can go home naturally once the work is finished.

Da Wen is a Xiucai (a scholar who passed the county-level imperial examination).

The family's fields must not be left uncultivated.

Old Mrs. Sun was determined to keep me here.

After completing the planting of the last piece of land

We'll stay here for the night.

The next day, we went to the temple to offer incense.

I have never worshipped Buddha.

They don't understand the rules either.

Will it be because I am not devout?

The Bodhisattva has never granted me a son.

A mother's sincerity is all that matters.

Don't blame everything on yourself.

My wife can go whenever she wants.

I'll find the best inn first.

Uncle, could you tell me which way is the best inn?

have no idea

aunt

The people here are all so abnormal.

He gave me a hard time when I asked for directions.

Dad, you call people your age "uncle" and "auntie".

They're already very well-mannered by not hitting you.

Your eyes are full of wrinkles when you smile.

He looks older than Uncle Liu

impossible

I'm still a handsome young man

You, the head of the household, do look four or five years older than Shunzi.

I can recognize most of the words on this list.

Even if you don't know them all

You can also guess from the context.

This stir-fried pork belly

This clear stewed mutton

Another plate of green vegetables and a bowl of soup.

Dad can order food by himself now.

I'm finally not blind anymore, hahaha!

I just saw a Qingfeng Inn nearby.

Let's stay there tonight.

Mother, let's change the bedding to what we brought ourselves.

Tomorrow, I'll go up the mountain

Let's all go to bed early.

One

The eldest sister flower is so beautiful

No matter how pretty they are, they're not as pretty as our pear blossoms.

Haha, is Xiaoyu only good at coaxing people?

Does Dad think my sister isn't pretty?

All three women in our family are beautiful.

I am the most blessed

What to do when you're in charge?

I'm afraid I'll do something wrong and be punished by the gods and Buddhas.

This is my first time too.

What others do

So we did as instructed.

Before parents and gods

Sincerity brings results

Say what you want in your heart

You don't have to be exactly the same as everyone else.

First, I pray for my husband and daughter's safety.

It would be even better if a son were added to the family.

Seeking a family with good health

Business is going well

Amitabha

Since we're here

We went to eat vegetarian food at the temple.

Each person only needs 30 coins.

Temples have so many ways to make a living.

Scriptures, amulets, consecrated jade, and even rice—all are charged separately.

Fortunately, the vegetarian food tasted excellent.

The tofu, mushrooms and vegetables make it fragrant and delicious.

Rice that has been touched by incense is considered auspicious.

Dad, eat two more bowls

Eat back the money your mother donated

How many bowls of food can you eat with 5 taels of silver?

I'm afraid even if I eat myself to death today, it still won't be enough.

From now on, the first and fifteenth of each month

Let's all burn incense!

Does that mother always donate five taels?

Today is the first time I don't understand.

A few dozen coins will suffice from now on.

The sentiment is the most important.

Buddha does not care about material possessions.

The monks in the temple seemed to care quite a bit.

We'll spend two more days there.

Next, let's go to the next county town with hot springs.

I heard that the spring water is warm all year round.

I've long yearned for it

Your dad has really improved.

They can all use idioms.

Next stop: hot springs

If it were truly as warm as bath water

I can soak all day

Soaking for too long can cause dizziness

Don't get dizzy from soaking.

Breakfast was dark brown steamed buns that Dad bought.

Lunchtime steamed buns with dipping sauce

Dad was in a good mood that evening, so he brought home two vegetable buns.

A few tender vegetables sprouted in the yard

I also picked them, washed them, and ate them raw.

Don't keep touching your forehead

The more you touch your hair, the slower it grows.

When will my parents come back?

I eat steamed buns every day.

Dad, you're practically turning into a steamed bun!

How long until Mother comes back?

I'm too afraid to even leave the house now.

They can't even consider marriage.

How long will spring plowing last?

Just bear with it for a few more days

After your mother came back

The house will then return to normal.

All the work is done

All planted

The second family had finished spring plowing three days ago.

But no one helped me.

The two families have already broken off relations.

We can't count on it.

Since it's over

I will return to the county town tomorrow.

Staying at home means eating an extra portion of food.

It's one thing if you want to leave.

Being used and then immediately dismissed is another matter entirely.

Okay, I'll leave tomorrow.

So comfortable

If only I could bring a pot of wine

I can soak until dark.

Why is the water always hot?

It would be so convenient to have a bathtub at home.

This is a hot spring.

Soaking for a while makes your body feel relaxed.

Not for too long

After we'd had enough soaking, we headed up the mountain.

Dad, hurry up and come out.

Light rain

Dad, soak for a while longer.

This hot spring is so relaxing!

Soaking for too long could cause dizziness and even drowning.

Why

Ruxin, where are your bangs?

Mom, my bangs were burned off by the fire.

Half of my eyebrows are gone.

I fell while carrying water.

I almost burned to death while cooking.

They could only eat black steamed buns every day.

If you don't come back

I really can't go on living.

My unfortunate daughter

Mother is back

From now on, Mom will do these chores.

I won't let you touch fire again.

daughter

You didn't have a good time back in the village, did you?

Mother only returned to the village for half a month

But he looked several years older.

His face was tanned dark

Rough and cracked hands

Old clothes covered in mud

She had long lost the dignity she once possessed as a scholar's wife.

My mother used to say that women are the most...

The most important thing is the face and skin.

Men value dignity

How did she end up like this?

No wonder Dad sought out Xu Xiaohong

daughter

Didn't I only hurt my back?

Why did you get so tired, Uncle?

Your grandpa doesn't need anyone to serve him.

Your second uncle called me back.

They are unwilling to hire laborers for our fields.

Several acres of land from tilling to

I'll do all the planting myself.

I'm always hungry.

And you'll also be watched by your grandma.

He really became the Zhao family's ox.

I knew my second uncle had ulterior motives.

Since our family lost money

The person he was trying to curry favor with changed to his third uncle.

Unfortunately, his third uncle completely ignored him.

Mother, when I was in the old house

I overheard my second uncle and second aunt discussing

Sanzhu should be adopted by his third uncle.

After Uncle San died

The silver and the house all belonged to the three pillars.

Sanzhu then took the things back to his parents.

They were practically as good as having no sons missing.

Did you hear me clearly?

Not only these

My second uncle also said that my third uncle had other ways to make money.

But he only brought the village chief and Liu Shunzi.

Refusing to bring family members

My second uncle even went to eavesdrop by the wall.

The result was discovered.

Uncle Zhao has business

Preferring to benefit outsiders

They wouldn't even lend a hand to the eldest son's wife.

Your father, however, only studied.

Dreaming and finding women

Can't do anything

If this continues...

We're probably the worst off in the entire Zhao family.

daughter

Is the third uncle's estate really going to be handed over to the second wife for nothing?

Second Uncle was willing to give his son away

We also have two sons.

Unsuccessful

Your father has a very high opinion of himself.

He wouldn't be willing to give his son to the third son.

Even Jiawen Jiadong might not agree.

The children are all grown up

Do you know who your biological parents are?

No matter how hard I tried to coax my third uncle, he wouldn't leave.

After being adopted, his younger brother ate his food and lived in his house.

Let him support his studies

Inheriting the family business in the future

He will still come back to take care of us.

The three families went out for a trip.

There is never a shortage of clothing, food, or jewelry.

This indicates the amount of silver they possess.

Far more than outsiders guessed

If the younger brother enters the third wife's family

We have something to do.

Would the third uncle dare not help for his son's sake?

Father passed the imperial examination and became a scholar.

My two younger brothers are in school

My dowry is all taken care of.

Rather than letting my second uncle get away with it

Better to save money for yourself

I'll discuss it with your father tonight.

Although old

Finally, someone is cooking and doing laundry.

I've been buying food outside for every meal lately.

The next month's number has not yet been issued

Yuchi has already spent most of his money.

It's good to be back

Try to save on cooking in the future.

The house can't afford flowers

The second son was preparing to give his son to the third son.

If he gets first

All the money from the third branch of the family would later go into the second branch's pocket.

snort

The second child has really gone mad.

Even his own son was willing to give it away.

The second child's plan

You're really unmoved?

The third son had no sons.

Rather than letting the second wife take all the family property

Why don't we make the first move?

Hmph, how can our son call Zhao Dashu "Dad"?

Does he deserve it?

It's just a name.

The children are all grown up

Do you know who your biological parents are?

Inheriting the mansion and silver

Naturally, they're still on our side.

You need money to pass the imperial examination.

Two sons need money for school

Zhao Ruxin also needed a dowry when she got married.

The younger brother entered the third house

The third son not only had to provide for his food, lodging, and education.

We still have to take care of ourselves.

Parents suffer

The adopted son pleaded for mercy.

He dared not take the money.

He really will raise us too.

Finally found a guy with a boy

He's willing to let his child be unhappy.

We must raise the issue before the second wife.

Cheng waited for the third brother to return

Let's go back to the old house to discuss it.

Let's settle this matter first.

Now our task

It is about finding a suitable teacher.

Then I'll spend every day in the teahouse

Inquire near bookstores and schools

They specifically target those who are talented but unappreciated.

An upright scholar living in poverty

Dad is right.

It's best to be so poor that you can't even afford to eat.

And true knowledge

Living too well

Why should they come back to my village with me?

Then I'll leave this important matter to Dad.

My mother and I took Lihua shopping.

Hey, come here, come here.

The three of you went shopping and ate delicious food.

I ran around like a laborer until my legs were about to break.

Dad, take me with you tomorrow.

I'll help you develop eyesight.

So that you won't tell everyone you're a great talent.

The village is too remote, I won't go.

You gave too little money.

What books do women read?

I once offended the school administrator because I was too straightforward.

He could only support his parents, wife, and children by copying books.

Master, we are sincere.

I'd like to hire you to teach at my home.

I can earn one or two taels of silver a month by copying books.

If the fee is less

Another family trip

I cannot accept

Give as much as you are entitled to.

Never let the Master suffer a loss

Accommodation also needs to be arranged.

I have parents, wife and children

We can't all squeeze into one room

Stay at my house first

I'll build you a house with blue bricks and tiles when we get back.

A separate courtyard

But the mountains are high and the roads are long.

Do you have ulterior motives?

No no

We genuinely want to study.

My father speaks in a rambling manner.

His eyes, however, were open and honest.

You have arrived at the Zhao family.

Half-day classes per day

Half a day can be used to continue studying and preparing for exams

No need to spend all day copying books and wasting energy

You should learn too.

My dad, my mom, my sister, and I all learned it.

Both men and women should be literate and understand principles.

If you are willing

The Zhao family provided tuition, lodging, and daily necessities.

Stay in the prefectural city

I could only copy books day and night.

Going to the countryside is an adventure

However, it is also possible that the imperial examination system will be revived.

When do you plan to depart?

The Master has agreed.

become

I'll go with you.

When do you plan to set off?

I need to organize my books

Also, explain to parents, wife and children

Departing in 5 days is the right thing to do.

Can the Master know reliable human traffickers?

We want to buy a few servants.

I know a broker who is very principled in his work.

I can take you there tomorrow.

That's settled.

Then we won't bother you any longer, goodbye.

One

There are also children in the town

Why insist on bringing it back from the prefectural city?

Most of the people in the town do manual labor.

Steward from a wealthy family in the prefectural city

old woman, cook, maid and servant

I've seen the rules

They also take care of the house.

Pear Blossom Needs a Little Girl

The household needs a cook and a servant.

What will our family do after we buy people?

Could it be that Mai is reaching out to him?

Food served to one's mouth

Didn't Dad always want to be the master?

From now on, you will study every day.

Mother and Pear Blossom also need to learn.

Where would you be bored?

Okay, Dad, let's go back first.

Going to the dental clinic tomorrow

This person will catch the train.

Who can do the accounting?

The cook and the old woman are also indispensable.

There are only four people in our family.

Buy too many and can't afford to raise them

We need a capable housekeeper and cook, Ms. Cao.

The old woman, the servant, and the maid who took care of Zhao Lihua

Then I'll go and get the paperwork done.

If it weren't for your mother stopping you...

I'd like to add three more.

Dad, you're not being picky.

They can't bear to let go of any capable person they see.

Talented people are hard to come by

There's always work to be done at our house.

Wouldn't returning to the village like this be too conspicuous?

We can't expect the elderly and children to walk back.

More cars, more convenience

We didn't steal or rob.

Is that family really reliable?

We are getting further and further away from the prefectural city.

What if I get scammed?

If they are evil people

There's no need to spend money to hire a tutor or buy servants.

Walk along the sidewalk for a while longer

Let's observe the Zhao family's residence and their character.

Third brother, why did you invite the teacher?

Has the second child already told you about the adoption?

Big Brother

Can't I learn to read on my own?

What are you learning at your age?

Who are these people?

Master's family

And the servants I bought

Paying respects to the lord

My family is also short-handed, my third brother.

No need to be so polite to him

My relationship with my older brother isn't great.

Later when he came home

Especially when I'm not around

Don't rush to open the door

We must not let him into the house at will.

Did you remember?

Remember

Third brother, you treat your own brother like a thief, guarding against him.

We're not close to each other to begin with.

Okay, I'm too tired to talk anymore after returning from the ancient city.

Old Sow Village has not seen a simultaneous [event] for many years.

So many carriages have appeared before

Which distinguished guest is visiting?

May I ask where you all come from?

Which company are you looking for?

The village chief is me

Haven't seen each other for a while

I don't think I have

ah

sapling

Why did you bring back such a big entourage from your trip?

Nothing, let's go home first.

This journey has exhausted me.

Master, this is my home.

You and your family will stay in a few rooms in the inner courtyard first.

I will have someone build you another courtyard tomorrow.

The accommodation was much better than I expected.

This arrangement is excellent.

Big Tree, is this really the teacher you invited from the prefectural city?

I'm going to study hard.

No need to worry about making a living at home

So they made up for what they hadn't learned before.

Why don't you go to the village school?

Let me, at my age, sit in a room with a bunch of mischievous monkeys.

I can't do it.

Big tree, what are you doing?

These were bought for work.

I didn't intend to buy so many.

But they are all capable.

I accidentally lost control

He still couldn't stop buying people

How much silver do you actually have?

And this carriage is mine.

It will be more convenient to go out in the future

I'll teach you how to catch the train another day.

Hahaha

Steward Cao took out the candies he had bought in the prefectural city.

Give a few to each of the children who came along.

The children lined up

Thank you, sir.

Thank you, Uncle Zhao.

Thank you, Mr. Zhao.

Master Zhao

Master Zhao

You've got quite the airs now.

Would you still be willing to drink at the same table with me in the future?

Hahaha, no matter how good I am...

You're my brother too, we'll still drink and fight as usual.

Village chief Hu Zi and others bought land nearby and built houses.

The village committee will be located in one area in the future.

Wouldn't that mean Maodong could gather every day?

Haha, the old house is left to the children.

We also want to stay in a more lively place.

How much land is left in this area?

There are about ten acres left.

Wow

The remaining dozen or so acres of land

I bought them all.

Build a separate courtyard for the Master

It will also be useful in other places later.

Shunzi and Huzi's house is still under construction.

Once these two sites are completed

Then ask the villagers to start the work for the master.

To avoid scattering manpower

Wages and meals were provided according to regulations.

Steward Cao and his servant lived in the east room.

The cook, the old woman, and the maid lived in the west room.

Not enough beds

First, move them from the empty house.

We'll add a new bed in a few days.

I originally thought the rural accommodations would be simple and basic.

Unexpectedly, it was a house made of blue bricks and tiles.

The room has a bed and heated walls.

Actually, our family can manage on our own.

Is it a waste to buy so many people?

I just don't want my mother to work so hard anymore.

In the future, you will learn to read and do needlework.

Rest whenever you want

So many things

Which one will Chun Ya like?

Go to sleep first, and I promise the gift will be by your pillow when you wake up.

What will we do about food in the future?

What if someone sees something appear out of thin air?

Our whole family is going to suffer.

The inner court gave no instructions.

No one is allowed to enter.

If you want to eat something special, close the door and make it yourself.

Better to eat less

We must not reveal any flaws.

I wish I hadn't bought any players.

Be very careful in the future.

Don't take anything that seems suspicious out.

I know

Two jars of wine and two boxes of pastries

Cured pork, cured chicken, and several feet of dark cloth

These are for grandpa and grandma.

That's enough.

It contains no acid

It wouldn't give the impression that the three gangs would arbitrarily demand money.

Shunzi said we left the village on the second day

Father fell and was injured by his elder brother in the field.

Second Brother still wants us to serve him.

Luckily I walked fast

Later, my sister-in-law went back to the village to work in the fields for half a month.

I'm so tired I look like a ghost.

Dad brought things to Grandpa and Grandma as soon as he got back.

No one in the village can say you are unfilial.

Go, don't linger in the old house.

Father and third brother are back

Five carriages in total

Everything was moved into his yard.

That spendthrift son of a man has no way of making a living.

Having money to buy so many things

I don't know how to give some to my parents and older brother.

Don't rush to scold the second son.

Go and find out the details.

What exactly did he bring back?

Father Liu Sanzi Village Chief

Tiger and those who were close to Third Brother

All the houses were built at the end of the village.

What were their family backgrounds like before?

You know, who would believe you if I said that getting rich had nothing to do with the third son?

That spendthrift son

Preferring to let outsiders profit from large sums of money

They wouldn't even give it to their own parents and older brother.

How much would 1.5 horse-drawn carriages cost?

He's not mentally ill.

They simply didn't take us seriously.

Our whole family together

He's probably not even as good as a little Liu.

I am his biological mother

How could you be inferior to an outsider?

The third son is thriving

The eldest son, whom I loved most dearly, was struggling in the county town.

Father must discipline his third brother this time.

Business can bring outsiders

Why can't I bring my own brothers?

If he had helped earlier

Big Brother Doesn't Sell His Home

I don't need to earn 20 coins by building houses for others.

First, find out what he brought back.

Let's think of another way

The third child is now impervious to both soft and hard approaches.

We can no longer force them directly like before.

Old man, hurry up and call the third son back!

I just got back today.

long journey

Call again tomorrow

Too much pressure

He shut the door and refused to acknowledge anyone.

It's time to talk to the third brother about Erzhu's adoption.

The Zhao family, especially the third son's family, are living a very prosperous life.

They actually bought 5 horse-drawn carriages.

There were also 5 servants.

Hahaha

Father doesn't need to ask.

The whole village knows

The third brother brought back a live-in tutor.

He said he wanted to study.

The father and son lived in his house.

We'll need to build another courtyard in a few days.

What books does someone his age read?

With this money, you might as well hire a great scholar to occasionally teach you a few characters.

And it wasn't just the third brother who bought five servants.

There were stewards, cooks, old women, servants, and maids.

Those people called him "Master" in public.

He's really become Master Zhao.

We're getting old.

We are short of people to serve us

His family only has four members.

Where can you use all 5?

I'll have him send two over tomorrow.

Da Yong will go and ask Lao San to come over tomorrow.

I want to borrow filial piety and brotherly love to

The opportunity to study abroad is being re-examined by the third wife.

Since Father has invited a tutor

Can my three sons learn together?

The Master teaches one child, and he teaches four children; it's still teaching.

You can't expect your own nephew to accept books as gifts, can you?

We really can't waste it.

I'll talk about it all tomorrow.

What are you doing, sir?

What happened again?

Dad, I want to give Erzhu to my third brother for adoption.

The third brother had no sons.

Second Pig entered the third house

Being able to study with the teacher can also help

To inherit his family line

When the child grows up

The house, carriage, and business all have heirs.

Before the second wife

His own son was sent to the third wife.

Have you thought it through?

Weren't you investigating a case next door?

Completed the investigation

So fast

They came to me by following the scent.

I saw it.

This is a prop.

Let me check the props.

Why are chopsticks included in the props?

Investigative tools

I just want to eat

My story isn't over yet.

Remember to reserve your spot for the next season.

drumstick

It's gone.

My name is Zhao Xiaoyu

In his previous life, he was a combatant in the apocalypse.

After death, she was reborn as a farm girl who was almost sold into slavery.

My father, Zhao Dashu, is righteous.

My mother, Song, was resilient.

They desperately protected us sisters

The whole family and the old house had a falling out, and they ended up with nothing and separated from the family.

It is truly clean.

However, I have space.

It also has the abilities from a previous life.

Gathering herbs, selling bamboo shoots, making crab sauce, buying land, and building houses.

He also helped his fellow villagers earn money.

Severe winter and soaring grain prices

We've all made it through.

Master's carriage attendant

We brought them all back to the village.

But the old house has its eye on the family business.

Still haven't learned their lesson

father

I want to give Erzhu to my third brother for adoption.

Adoption is no small matter.

Once a decision is made, there's no turning back.

You're really willing to lose one son?

Dad, I've thought it through.

Erzhu went to the third brother's house and was able to study.

To live a good life

From now on, our two families will be even closer.

This matter needs to be considered in the long run.

Tell me first.

Father

What's wrong with me today?

They all ran home.

Boss

Today isn't a day off.

Why are you back?

I ran into Lao San in the county town.

He made a fortune again.

A teacher returned with a carload of people.

There were servants and a carriage.

Dad, I told you the rumors in the village weren't wrong.

My third brother has really made it big!

Where did he get so much money?

Building houses is not enough

Now even servants and tutors can be supported.

Dad is doing so well.

Our family didn't benefit at all.

Does he still care about us?

The family division documents were laid out.

How many times have I asked him?

He pretended to be stupid.

Not a penny more

father

I have something I'd like to talk to you about privately.

Brother Cheng and his father chatted slowly

I went out to work

The matter of adoption still depends on the father.

We can't let our older brother get ruined.

Babies, thank you all for liking to dress up as a peasant girl.

Raising kids and farming is incredibly fun and exciting!

The next season is currently in rapid production.

More exciting things to come!

Remember to click to reserve and add to your favorites!

Tell me what's wrong?

Dad, I want to give Jia Dong to the third son for adoption.

Uh...

Sha Jiadong

Wang also agreed.

We have two sons

Adopt one

The incense will never be extinguished.

You, a mere scholar

Willing to let his son recognize that peasant third brother as his father

Even scholars have to think about taking the imperial examinations.

Travel expenses to the prefectural city

Food costs money at home

Ruxin wants a dowry

Ka-keung and Ka-tung will both get married in the future.

Now we don't even have our own house anymore.

How can I support their father?

My child will stop going to school

What to do next?

Your family really agreed

promise

How much money does it cost to support a scholar?

You know best

Boss, just before you came back...

Your second brother also mentioned this to me.

What he said

He wanted to give Erzhu to the third son for adoption.

So I was still a step too late.

Dad, what should I do?

We now eat brown rice and dark flour for every meal, and we have to be careful with our food.

How can I take the exam without money?

How should my child study?

How will I get married in the future?

My son

How am I supposed to choose?

father

daughter

Isn't my older brother a teacher in the county town?

Why are you back?

What sad thing has reminded you of?

Haha, please sit down.

Not long ago, they practically wanted to avoid me.

What's gotten into him again?

Father, I've returned from the prefectural city.

I brought some things for you and Mom.

It contains chicken.

There are also two jars of wine

I heard you bought people and carriages.

They also hired a live-in tutor.

yes

How many people are in your family?

What's the point of having so many people?

I bought it because it looked nice to me.

They are all capable workers.

It's not like I'm supporting idlers.

Where did you get the money?

It's money I earned, not something I stole.

Could you please take your older brother along?

Now everyone in the village says you're siding with outsiders.

Village Chief Liu Shunzi and his comrades bought land one by one.

I'm planning to build a house with blue bricks just like yours.

Who would believe it if you didn't help them?

The villagers are all talking about you.

He became their god of wealth.

I didn't give them money for nothing.

They just gave me a job.

They earned it themselves through their own work.

The work is now finished.

Then why not give it to your own brother?

Because they are more suitable

Hey, third brother

Please, I'm begging you.

Wouldn't it be better if the whole family got up?

I only remember who helped me during my most difficult time.

So-called family

Sometimes you see the benefits

More eager to leech off you than strangers.

nonsense

They are not that kind of people.

It doesn't matter whether it is or not.

Anyway, there's no work right now.

If there really is someone suitable for my second brother in the future...

I will think of him

My older brother teaches in the county town.

The income is not low

I can't help.

The item has been delivered.

I'll go back and rest first.

Didn't you invite a tutor?

Your second brother's three kids haven't had any early education.

Or should we have them read along with us?

No, I'm not a beginner anymore.

The three of them were uneducated.

I can't learn from you

You actually know how to read?

My second brother recently came to my house to collect money.

Did I write the receipt myself?

Father and third brother can indeed write.

I saw him write the receipt with my own eyes.

real

real

That won't cause any delay.

You study in the morning

They study in the afternoon

Evening is fine too

Father, the tutor I hired is still preparing for the imperial examination.

It was agreed before we came

Only teach me one

Only teach for half a day

How much more does the third brother have to do?

It was something I, as the father, knew absolutely nothing about.

Only teach for half a day

Why don't you just ask your older brother?

He teaches you so you can have more time to prepare for the scientific expedition.

How could I dare to invite you, brother?

I glanced at his book when I was a child

He got angry with me.

Have you forgotten how you cursed my father?

That brat

Good deeds not recorded

One bad thing to remember for a lifetime

Nothing else

I really replied.

I'm exhausted from rushing back.

Then I'll be going.

Dad, why don't you mention the matter of Erzhu being adopted?

Shut up, I know what I'm doing.

father

Na Jiadong

You shut up too.

Go back to the county town to work

Your third brother just brought it.

Take some food with you so you don't go hungry.

Even after the family split up, they still blatantly favored the eldest son.

Everything we eat and use is ours.

I can't stay here anymore.

Go ask your older brother for advice.

What's wrong? Did you see the third brother make a fortune again?

Feeling uncomfortable

yes

Not entirely.

Anything else?

The eldest and second sons both wanted to give their son to the third son for adoption.

What's so special about the third son only having one big house?

Someone will make a move on him.

There are at least five or six companies that have hinted at their intentions to me.

so much

The family was so poor they practically only kept one broken pot.

Send everything else over

Now the third son has both a carriage and a tutor.

Entering his house brings more than just a house and money.

To be honest, I can still study

I even considered having him adopt a grandson.

It's not surprising that financial expos are captivating.

Once you're truly inside the third brother's door

Food, clothing, a house, and education—all are provided.

Now the whole clan is eyeing this piece of meat.

However, if the third child were truly adopted...

They'll definitely choose from your closest relatives first.

It seems like no one else has a chance.

What do you mean?

I have no idea

My true intention was to help the boss.

He's really having a hard time right now.

Can retire and return to the second child

The second son held a grudge.

If I help the boss

Who will the two elderly people rely on in the future?

The third son, not to mention...

I hide when I see you

I raised three sons.

In old age, I can't rely on any of them.

Who brought it up first?

The second brother had just finished speaking

The boss came back.

Or should we let the third son have both?

If not, he'll at most want a broken basin.

Drawing lots

Big Brother

Okay, okay, I'm not kidding you.

Then let me ask you...

When the family separated to provide for their elderly parents

Why not just talk to the boss directly?

He looks like someone who can serve others.

When I'm lying on the kang (a heated brick bed) unable to move...

His family might not all have anyone guarding them.

Since we know the boss can't be relied on

Why are you still siding with him?

Isn't he the most likely to change the family name?

You have to take care of yourself first.

Da Yong still holds a grudge

It's also about living life with you.

How did this uncle make his fortune?

You really don't know anything.

After we separated, he wouldn't tell me anything.

What can I know?

The division of the family property was hasty.

We never took him seriously before.

Now his life is getting better.

Many people in the clan were filled with deep regret.

What's the use of regret?

He said who was good to him

He's good to whoever he wants.

Don't bring up the topic of being from the same clan with him.

That's not how it works.

No matter how capable he is, he's still surnamed Zhao.

Without the help of clansmen

How will we maintain this large family business in the future?

You need to persuade him.

Let go of what you should let go of.

Stop only caring about outsiders like the Liu and Song families.

Do you think I can control you?

Not to mention the clan

My eldest and second eldest children didn't benefit from it.

The second son is still giving

Liu Shunzi earns wages by building houses.

Brother, try to think more positively.

The third brother will do this again.

No one can stop us.

My biggest regret now is what I did back then.

Then he persuaded his third brother to separate the third branch of the family.

Even if the eldest brother is in pain

I can't gamble with my old age.

Or choose two pillars

At least my second child will have to support me in the future.

Come back and help!

I didn't realize it when I bought it.

I only realized how much it was when I started tidying up.

Actually, there's more than that.

Tomorrow our whole family will go to your parents' house.

Bring more over

Let's also check out how their new house is going.

Really? Then I'll pick some good ones.

Uh, you guys take your time choosing.

I'm going back to my room to rest for a while.

By the way, should the family sit separately when eating?

They were just arriving and felt awkward.

Did your parents complain that you didn't give them enough?

They had no interest in looking at anything.

My older brother is back too.

My whole family kept asking me how I make money.

Let me help them get rich

You agreed.

Do I look like an idiot?

The eldest and second eldest brothers only needed to catch a whiff of the news

It can turn the land upside down

The business was built through Xiaoyu's hard work and dedication.

We can't let them ruin it.

Let's just live our own lives.

The left and right sides have already separated.

I lost points

This family is more kind than I imagined.

My parents also said before

Once my yard is built

We need to grow vegetables and raise chickens.

It's quiet here.

He's a real person

Suitable for reading

We should have been right this time.

Erzhu was saved.

Babies, thank you all for liking to dress up as a peasant girl.

A thrilling story of raising children and farming – it's incredibly enjoyable!

The next season is currently in rapid production.

More exciting things to come!

Remember to click to reserve and add to your favorites!

Mom, I'm going to find Chunmiao with gifts!

Go

Where is my dad?

He said he forgot to give gifts to some of his uncles yesterday.

I sent the replacement this morning.

We're going to your maternal grandfather's house tomorrow.

Don't forget the pastries and sweets for the Master's family.

Their family also includes elderly people and children.

Your dad is best at these social niceties. He already took it.

Are you still worried he might leak?

I'm going to Shunzi's place for a couple of drinks.

Dad, drink less.

He pouted when he was drunk.

Say what cannot be said

Our family secret is over.

Haha, I understand.

I'll be more careful with my drinking from now on.

My aunt and uncle are rich now.

Wait until I get married

Will he give me a dowry?

If Erzhu really is adopted over

For his sake

It's possible that I'll add one for you.

The few houses your mother showed you before

Who exactly have you set your sights on?

They were all peasants from the village.

The best one was just a single brick house.

Erzhu is going to his third uncle's house to make a fortune.

Why should I marry a peasant?

I won't marry a peasant.

You still want to marry someone from the city?

I asked my third uncle to buy me a house in the county town as part of my dowry.

Then I can marry someone from the city.

What are you daydreaming about?

The money for the third wife belongs to the third wife.

Two pillars truly passed.

They'll just try to make him distant from us.

It would be good enough if they could add some dowry to your dowry.

You're just being biased.

If you're not happy getting married, cut your hair and become a nun.

Without even asking

How do you know Uncle San won't give it to you?

The weeds in the big pillar field have been cleared

Dazhu must have felt wronged too.

But there's only one chance.

Just endure a few more years

Once Erzhu truly establishes himself in the third branch of the family...

He can definitely help his brother.

My second brother went to my third uncle's house to enjoy a life of luxury.

Will my third brother still be able to go to school next year?

Only I go to the fields every day

I still have to take care of my parents in their old age.

Why shouldn't I be a peasant for life?

Third brother, come out here.

Dad needs to talk to you

The old man and his family went to the Song family.

I just got back yesterday

Today I eagerly went to my in-laws' house again.

Liu Jiagai, the village chief, built a new house.

The Song family also built

My Zhao family didn't get any benefits at all.

Ouch, my foot!

Da Yong

You take Erzhu home first.

I went to the clan chief's house.

Haha, sir.

Haha, I'm back from the prefectural city!

Let's go to the village entrance to talk.

Dad, you guys built this house really fast!

Is it almost finished?

Construction will begin as soon as spring plowing ends.

The more people you hire, the faster it will be.

Once it's covered

Your whole family should come and stay for a while.

Parents, you'll be living here now.

Stay for a while

We'll move in once the new house is finished.

Big Tree, our new house is pretty good, isn't it?

Not bad, big and impressive

By the way, we brought a lot of things from the prefectural city, where should we put them?

Just put it here.

Your second brother recently made a new door that can be locked.

Uncle, this is

My newly purchased servant

There's more than one in the family.

And the cook

From now on, Song will no longer have to work every day.

My parents come to stay at my house for a few days whenever they have time.

Also experience the joy of having clothes handed to you.

Days when food is served to you

You've already used "boss" and "assistant" methods.

Bought several

They can all do it.

We also brought you quite a few things from the prefectural city.

You might not even be able to buy it in the county town.

My older brother and younger brother have been working hard building their house lately.

Everyone should replenish their energy.

Tender things

Keep it for yourselves.

For my parents

No more is not enough

Dad put honey on his lips today.

Parents

You are busy waiting for the house to be built.

Let's stay a few more days.

Slow down on the way to Chengdu

After you leave, sir

The old master and the second master came.

I left when I saw you weren't there.

Please go to the old house after you return.

They contacted me again.

Butler Cao, there's something you need to remember.

I'm not particularly close to my parents, older brother, or second older brother.

They will come later

Be more careful

Don't let anyone into the inner courtyard.

The old servant understands

Let's take a nap.

I'll go check out the old house.

Going there will definitely not bring good things.

They'll scheme against me one less time a day.

Will I die from discomfort?

Head of household

Dazhu came back today and smashed the hoe.

And throw a tantrum.

What is he trying to do?

Dazhu also wanted to go to the third branch of the family.

He also said he wanted to study.

Even their own sons complain that their parents are useless.

vying to run to other people's houses

Dazhu is the most diligent and steady of the three.

If he had been allowed to study when he was young, maybe...

Who knew Zhao Dawen read it?

In over twenty years, there has only been one scholar.

What to do now?

If Dazhu really goes to study too

If the second pillar enters the third house

The three pillars will need to begin their education next year.

Offer another large pillar

Even if we sell everything we own, we still can't afford it.

Then tell him the truth.

Don't give any hope

He actually entered the school

I'm afraid we won't be able to get them back even if we try.

Well, to be honest...

It's not that I don't want to pay

We really can't afford it.

Dad, I'm here.

Where are my parents and second brother?

One

I was still asleep and didn't hear the third brother coming.

Third brother

Why did you come at this time?

It wasn't you who went to my house this morning.

I said I'd come right away when I got back.

Should I leave my own big bed unused?

I came here to make you happy.

Yes, yes, it's me and Dad who need to talk to you.

My third uncle and grandma haven't gotten up yet.

Please have a seat, I'll get you a chair.

Why is Dazhu being so polite today?

How have you been lately?

It's alright, I just have to work in the fields every day.

Is Uncle San tired?

I'm not tired, second brother.

Dazhu is still growing.

Don't overwork yourself.

This child is definitely not just being sensible today.

I'll go wake Erzhu up.

You went to the Song family today.

Yeah, it's been a long time since I've been back to my parents' home.

It's good to bring some local food with me.

I heard the Song family is also building a new house.

Yes, blue brick and tile house

It's quite impressive.

They used to be dirt poor.

Where did the silver come from?

Earned last year, right?

Don't beat around the bush.

You know it without me saying it.

That's what I earned with them.

Da Yong is your real brother

I know Dad

You say this every day

I'm not demented.

Whether someone is affectionate or not isn't determined by words.

Who helped me during my most difficult time?

I remember it clearly.

snort

Grandpa and Grandma, Uncle and Third Uncle

Erzhuzi also came.

Third brother, what do you think of Erzhu?

It's good that you've grown taller.

Her little face has also grown out.

He's just a little thinner.

Right?

The child is growing up

They've also become more sensible.

Uncle, you have money now!

Even in the county town, there are connections.

The family has carriages and servants.

And the Master

It's different from before.

Then what

Dad is worried because you don't lack anything now.

Just missing one thing

And it's the most important thing.

Going in such a big circle

Just to remind me that I don't have a son

Dad, just say what you want to say.

After a long and winding journey

I'm tired just listening to it.

Your second brother and I have been these past few days

Everyone is worried about your situation.

Your room can't possibly be...

There wasn't a single person who broke the pot.

Ultimately, it's because your father married you the wrong woman back then.

The Song family's housekeeper is no good.

Even the most basic thing for women is childbirth.

father

My wife is wonderful.

She took care of me.

Taking care of children

Diligent and good at managing a household

I have no complaints whatsoever

She is in poor health.

They won't give birth

I didn't give you a son

What does it mean to be unable to give birth?

She gave birth to Xiaoyu and Lihua.

In the old house

Among the three daughters-in-law

She did the most work

The worst food

No wonder his health couldn't be good.

How did you and your mother rub her?

Everyone in the village saw it.

Uncle Zhao spoke in favor of Madam Song.

I really envy the Song family.

I only said one thing to him

You're so protective of her

You'll die without a woman

No Song family

I can't live like this.

So what if I only like her?

Shameless, I ask you.

What will happen if I don't have a son?

Life goes on as usual, and we eat as usual.

I am content with my two daughters.

What a spendthrift!

It would be better not to have children.

Your family line cannot end without descendants.

The clan chief has already said

The Zhao family cannot be without ancestral offerings.

So today we called Da Zhu and Er Zhu over.

That's why

I've discussed it with your second brother.

I'll give Erzhu to you as an adopted son.

You must remember the kindness of your second brother and sister-in-law.

Only a true brother would be willing to give you his own son out of gratitude.

Since you're so reluctant to part with it

Then don't give it.

I don't like to force others.

Third brother, don't act innocent after getting the benefit.

Second brother, I really wasn't being sarcastic.

When I was poor

I feel like the sky has fallen if I don't have a son.

Please give me even half of it.

But now I've seen the world.

I really think that's all there is to it.

I have already discussed it with Xiaoyu.

She will not marry outside the family in the future.

It's good to have a son-in-law live with his wife's family.

Establishing a female household is good

Whatever she likes

My family business and Song's family business originally consisted of two daughters.

Daughters will belong to someone else sooner or later.

Then I won't get married.

The child Xiaoyu gives birth to will have the surname Zhao.

I will continue to offer incense.

No live-in son-in-law knows as well as a nephew.

What if an outsider takes all your property?

Third brother, don't be foolish.

snort

We'll see if outsiders are reliable later.

Anyway, I won't earn it with my own money.

To let others benefit from one's family business

You don't want Erzhu

So who do you want?

Is this okay?

Your eldest and second eldest brothers' sons

Pick one of your choice

Jiawen Jiadong's main pillar, second pillar, and third pillar

You choose

The eldest brother even had designs on the third brother's family business.

So it turns out my two older brothers were after my money.

Dad, thank you so much for going to such lengths to arrange this for me.

I'm doing this for your own good.

But I really don't want to walk the path of hundreds of millions.

My family's assets are Xiaoyu and Lihua.

Don't even think about it.

Third Uncle, do you think I'm suitable?

If adopted by you

I will definitely treat you and my third aunt as my own parents.

I will take care of you in your old age and see you off when you die.

Goodness

To send someone off to their death in front of one's own parents

This kid is even more ruthless than his second brother.

I never expected this.

The most silent one on weekdays

The grandson actually jumped out on his own.

This is mine.

You dare steal my good days!

Why can it only be you?

I am the eldest son

On being sensible and on being hardworking

In what way am I inferior to you?

Stop right there!

I used to think Sanzhu was a bad person.

Now look at the second brother's three sons

Each one is more daring than the last.

My second brother will probably have a hard time taking care of himself in his old age.

Take them all down

It annoys me.

This matter concerning the third brother must be settled today.

Look at what happened because of your adoption.

What a mess you made of the house!

Because every day you delay, you'll cause more trouble.

Choose one now.

These days, there are still people who force their sons on others.

I said no, but that didn't work.

You must have a son

If the father feels his son is not enough

You adopted your grandson as your son.

I definitely don't want to.

Second brother, I'll make this clear to you face to face today.

I don't want any of your three sons.

I don't want my older brother's either.

Why

Because I don't like it

Snobbish and materialistic

Even his own parents disliked him

All they care about is my money

Don't ever mention adoption to me again.

If you bring it up again, I'll really get angry.

Zhao Dashu, you better come back here!

This matter cannot be delayed any longer.

I discussed it with Xiaoyu when I got home.

We need to settle on a son-in-law who will move in with his wife's family as soon as possible.

Otherwise, everyone will be eyeing my family's money.

This one is ugly, that one is stupid.

That one only knows how to eat

I'm so worried!

Tiger's family is not good.

Too ugly

Shunzi's family only cares about eating.

My daughter has high standards.

Do you really expect me to go to another village to look for it?

Uncle Zhao

Haha eat

So generous

Haha, no way.

You're risking your life for money when you hunt.

I'll buy this sheep.

Uncle doesn't need to take what he wants to eat.

I will go up the mountain again tomorrow.

Danger on the mountain

Go as little as possible

Come home with me

I'll give you the silver.

Could you please carry the sheep back for me?

become

Why

Dad, where did this come from?

I ran into Xiao Lei on the way.

I bought it.

Daughter takes silver

There are too many sheepskins, they're so badly damaged they can't be sold.

The meat delivered to the restaurant was only a little over four ounces.

A wild goat like this can sell for more than 6 ounces.

You deliberately underreported

Then five taels.

Pushing it again would be disrespecting Uncle.

Prepare the meat in the evening

I'll save one for you.

The Zhao family is so kind.

Thank you, Uncle Zhao.

I'll make a whole roasted lamb tonight.

Roast the whole thing

For a whole

Let's eat our fill of meat tonight!

Hahaha

Li Huan, slow down.

Turn it slowly so one side doesn't burn.

Bake until the outer skin is golden brown before slicing.

She is the young lady

Mother picked some vegetable leaves

Prepare chili peppers and garlic sauce for the mutton.

One

The kitchen is cooking more white porridge.

Make a few light side dishes

I'll go get your Uncle Shunzi.

Uncle Hu and his friends

They come every night.

Eat meat in big bites

Drinking in large gulps

Then invite the Master's family as well.

The sheep is this big

We can't finish it all

Xiaoyu is really capable.

He managed to organize this sheep in an orderly manner.

He's been used to worrying since he was a child.

Mmm, this mutton has no gamey smell at all, it's really delicious.

Grilled meat, ribs, lamb offal, and congee were all served.

Given to Xiao Lei

The sheep was hunted by him.

Don't let people only smell the fragrance

Uncle Zhao's family is really particular about their meals.

The number of people with over 100 million is endless.

Xiaoyu's marriage really needs to be settled quickly.

Daughter

Your grandfather brought up adoption again yesterday.

Your marriage is uncertain.

They'll probably never stop causing trouble.

Who has she set her sights on this time?

I can choose any of the sons from the first wife, second wife, and any other wife.

Like the emperor choosing a concubine.

We begged them back then

They all hid far away.

Now they're even scrambling to send their sons to our family.

Silver is truly alluring.

So Dad thought

Let's settle the marriage first.

Not in a hurry to get married

There are live-in sons-in-law

They can't keep focusing on over 100 million every day.

Sure, but who can I book with?

I thought about it for half the night last night.

None of the villagers were suitable.

Why don't you go ask the village chief?

See if he has any candidates.

Tiger's family

Quick sorrow

Well

Kuroko's family?

He's so naive, we'll spend the rest of our lives together.

We can't just watch him grin like an idiot all the time.

What about Xiao Lei next door?

He's not stupid and has a decent appearance.

It's just that I have a terrible father and stepmother.

The Xiao family's house is even more chaotic than the old mansion.

Hunting every day is also dangerous.

I'm already annoyed enough with the old house.

I don't want another nest of trouble

But Xiao Lei is good-looking.

Daughter

You choose men based on looks.

Looking at each other every day

Why look for someone if you can't find someone you like?

Around the same age

There aren't many people in the village who can watch it.

A girl

She's a bit reserved when it comes to her words.

Do you really think Xiao Leixing...

Currently, it seems more suitable than others.

Able to work and support oneself

They're about the same age.

At least he's not lazy.

Hunter Danger

What if something happens when you go into the mountains?

You'll be a widow then.

Once you enter our house

Why make him risk his life hunting every day?

Our family isn't short of meat.

He simply doesn't hunt.

I can afford to raise them.

Father worked hard to build the family business

In the end, I'll still have to support a son-in-law who only relies on his looks.

Being good-looking is also a skill.

The things you two are saying are getting more and more outrageous.

As for the Xiao family...

Xiao Ping and Yang Shi will release the people.

They'll come to make trouble every day from now on.

We still have a peaceful life

Then let Xiao Lei sever ties with his family.

Since it's a son-in-law marriage

From now on, everyone will be from the Zhao family.

The Xiao family's messy affairs cannot be brought into the house.

Severing ties cleanly, though.

Whether Xiao Lei is willing to come is another matter.

A perfectly good man marrying into a family doesn't have a good reputation.

This is the real point.

Even hunters have their pride.

Don't let us spend so much time planning at home

They had no such intention at all.

If you don't want to, then...

We won't force it.

There are other men in the world besides him.

Let me think about it.

Forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore.

I went to ask Cheng Cheng directly.

If it doesn't work, try again.

Go now

This matter will be delayed for a day

The old house will miss my family for one more day.

I'll go now

Dad, please don't scare people away as soon as you come over.

Daughter, wait at home for Dad's good news.

Xiao Lei is going out.

Uncle Zhao, what brings you here?

Hahaha

Uncle has something to talk to you about, are you free?

Please come in.

What kind of life is this kid living?

He'd be the one to enjoy life if he actually moved into our house.

Uncle, please have some water.

Although the bowl had a chipped rim

It is clean.

You are 18 this year

Did your dad arrange a marriage for you?

I would have moved out long ago.

Why would they care about my marriage?

So what do you think of our Xiaoyu?

Uncle

Don't overthink it.

My little Yu is so good.

It's impossible for her to marry into the Xiao family and suffer.

But I don't have a son.

Xiaoyu will never get married.

I plan to find her a son-in-law who will live with her family.

Do you want to consider it?

Live-in son-in-law

You are coming into our Zhao family

No need to worry about food and lodging

We will also treat you like our own child.

As long as you behave well and treat Xiaoyu well

Do not have any wicked thoughts

No one has treated you unfairly.

Why do you dislike my daughter?

Not Uncle Zhao

I just didn't expect it.

Does Xiaoyu know about this?

Of course I know

She disagreed.

Why did I come looking for you?

Could this kid have had feelings for my daughter all along?

I even delivered myself to their door.

You northern cow, so coy and hesitant.

Be straightforward, man.

Willing or not

If I agree

My father probably won't let me go easily.

He knew the Zhao family was wealthy.

They'll definitely demand a hefty sum.

So you're willing to say that?

Hahahaha

That leaves only one thing.

You want to enter my Zhao family

One must be completely innocent

Come in clean and tidy.

Uncle means

Cut ties with your father

I've thought about it many times.

He wouldn't agree.

He used to make a huge fuss every time I mentioned him.

He also hoped to help me hunt so he could bring money home.

Because you can make money now

If you can't make money

They still have to pay to support it.

Feigning illness or lameness

Package it as a burden that can only eat but not do anything.

We'll see then how reluctant they are to part with their son.

Still reluctant to part with the money

Uncle is not forcing you

Think it through yourself.

Keep clean

Let's not talk about marriage.

I can't let Xiaoyu...

I'm constantly entangled in the Xiao family's messy affairs.

I understand, Uncle Zhao.

I will figure out a solution as soon as possible.

Okay, I'll listen to Uncle.

Once you resolve the Xiao family's matter...

I then formally asked the matchmaker to come to my door.

If Mother were still alive

Knowing I can leave here

They'll probably be happy too.

I don't know how Dad is doing.

I need to go back and check.

father

Why are you back again?

The school has been so quiet lately

I took leave to come back.

What exactly happened with Dad's last adoption?

No chance of success.

The third brother refused.

Why doesn't he even want my son?

father

The third brother himself said he didn't want Jia Tuo.

Not just Jia Tuo

I let him choose from his grandsons.

Including all the children of the first and second wives

He doesn't want any of them.

Don't even try to force it on me.

He also said that no one should even think about taking his money.

He would rather have no descendants.

I can't hum it anymore

He said he would find a son-in-law to live with Xiaoyu.

Let your daughter's child take the surname Zhao

No outsider can be as reliable as a father with his own nephew.

You should talk to the third brother again.

You tell me yourself

I'm not going.

To avoid getting scolded again

I don't want any of them.

What are you dreaming about, brother?

The old man is getting old.

Speaking may not necessarily make things clear

Let's go ourselves

Hearing the third brother refuse to his face

I'll finally give up.

It's better to ask for a son than to ask for help from others.

It was accomplished

Count it as half

Xiao Lei is willing

I told him to sever ties with the Xiao family first.

He actually agreed to come to the door.

I promised that I wouldn't let Xiao Kai go, whether she wanted to or not.

If the marriage isn't completely severed, it doesn't count.

It must have been tough on that child.

Haha, why is it so difficult?

Come to our house and have a good meal and a comfortable stay.

There are still people who care.

He clearly made the profit.

The master and mistress were outside the door.

Who is the master?

That is the master's elder brother

Big Brother is here again.

I am your master's elder brother.

I have to wait for permission to go back to my younger brother's house.

The master gave instructions

All visitors must be informed first.

My elder brother and sister-in-law have something to do

Third brother, your servants are really lacking in discipline.

As your older brother

They dared to block me from entering!

You don't know how to manage a household.

It will be easy for lackeys to ride roughshod over you in the future.

How do I manage my people?

I know what I'm doing.

My older brother took a special leave to come back.

Surely it's not just to teach me how to manage servants?

I, a dignified scholar

He was actually stopped at the door by several servants from seeing his own younger brother.

Babies, thank you all for liking to dress up as a peasant girl.

Raising kids and farming is incredibly fun and exciting!

The next season is currently in rapid production.

More exciting things to come!

Remember to click to reserve and add to your favorites!

Song, a village woman

Where is one worthy of living in such a place?

They've turned a perfectly good yard into a vegetable garden and a dog-raising spot.

What a waste!

How are your sister-in-law doing lately?

One

Are you tired from the journey to Fucheng?

fine

I heard from Dad that you refused to be raised.

One

How can one act on impulse in matters like this?

Alright, I won't hold it against you.

From now on, treat Jiadong like your own son.

It wasn't in vain that I sacrificed a child for you.

Big Brother Dad Didn't Tell You

I didn't even consider your son.

Keep the treasures you cherish to yourself.

In my eyes, he really is

Not as important as my two dogs

Zhao Dashu, don t go too far.

I also advised my older brother not to think too highly of himself.

I don't care about your son.

And don't even think about my money.

To tell you the truth

You have no chance with this.

The eldest brother is like a father

You still ask the teacher to read to you now.

He's learned to be so unruly.

Call your teacher here

I'd like to ask him how he taught you.

Brother, stop pretending.

We are not registered residents of the same household.

Even my dad can't control me.

What right do you have to interfere?

You have this skill

Go back and discipline your two sons properly.

I did some work during last autumn harvest.

Each one is worse than the last.

Instead of constantly thinking about my family's meager income...

It's better to find your own way to make money.

I'm still busy

Don't come here unless it's absolutely necessary.

Go to Dad if you need anything.

He loves you the most.

Uncle and Aunt

So what if you have a little money?

They're still a family of peasants.

I got screwed by my dad again.

My daughter is back

I have good news for you. It's done!

Xiao Lei agreed.

I think that kid agreed too quickly.

He might have had ulterior motives towards you all along.

Dad, don't talk nonsense.

What about severing ties?

I've made myself clear.

After completely breaking off the engagement, then formally propose marriage.

That's good; the Xiao family won't be causing trouble every day anymore.

Life is peaceful.

Return to the county town

Without even saying goodbye to his parents

Going back would only make him a laughingstock among his younger brothers.

The third wife in the family has absolutely no chance.

Now that Song can no longer give birth to a son

That doesn't mean the third child will never be in a hurry.

In a few years

He will ask us for help himself.

Shinuni

Thirty years east of the river

Thirty years of change

The one who laughs last laughs best.

Back in the day, the younger ones always topped the older ones.

Why should I be the one to support my younger brother when we come to our family?

I want to study too.

I'll go too

I don't even know if my third uncle will still need me in the future.

You all go

Why shouldn't I go?

They all wonder what their families can provide for them.

Paper, pen, and book

Everything costs money

I'll only give you one year to study.

A year later I went to ask the Master

Whoever has the most talent will stay.

Who disagrees?

Stop reading now.

Three people working together for a year

We can withstand it.

Only one year

Even if you have to tighten your belt, you have to get through it.

Back then, Dad only recognized his eldest brother.

It took more than 20 years to produce a single scholar.

I can't make the same mistake again.

Who has a promising future?

Let the teacher see

The smallest of the three pillars

Not much work

If Erzhu really is adopted by the third son

I don't have the money to pay for school.

Big Pillar is already strong enough to push against laborers.

There would be one less hand in the schoolyard.

We've always bet that the Song family won't be able to have a son.

But the third brother is rich.

He cannot give birth

Can't he take a concubine?

As long as you're willing to spend money

The third son doesn't care as much as the Song family.

He wouldn't do such a thing.

Hopefully.

Zhao Di will wash the clothes in a bit.

Mother also had to gather pig feed and chop firewood.

Mom, I'm going on a blind date soon.

Didn't you say you wanted me to support you?

Washing clothes will make your hands rough

Buy me another ruqun (a type of traditional Chinese dress) and a hairpin.

It's more respectable to go for a blind date.

Your brother's adoption didn't even go through.

What else can the family hope for?

It's good enough to have clean clothes to wear.

You're just being biased.

Favoritism towards your marriage

I asked so many people for help

The few households that were willing to look at each other before

They don't mention it anymore.

You tell your girlfriends every day that you won't marry a peasant.

Why would someone be so eager to marry you?

It's not just you choosing someone else when it comes to marriage.

They also pick on you

You can manage a household and do embroidery

Excellent at cooking

She's especially good at working in the fields.

What makes you irreplaceable?

Listen to your mother and find a kind and honest family.

Don't always think about marrying into the city.

What was the date of Ru Xin's birth before?

Marriage is different now, it's more difficult.

Wealthy families in the city have three wives and four concubines.

If you really marry into that family, you'll be fighting with women every day.

Can you handle it?

What about my dowry?

You know the situation at home.

Your father and I will do our best.

We will not deduct your betrothal gifts.

I'll keep them all as my bottom line.

But you can't have a decent dowry.

Many families in the village don't even have daughters

Most of the betrothal gifts should be kept.

My parents are willing to give me everything.

It's not bad.

Thank you, Mother.

One year later

I must be the one who stays.

I can't lose

I want to keep reading

What brings you here, little brother?

I went to your house first.

The neighbor said you moved.

I've been waiting here for over an hour.

My brother-in-law moving is such a big deal

Why didn't you tell your family?

Too many things have happened at home recently.

Your older sister was too busy and forgot.

Let's go back and familiarize ourselves with the place first.

How are the two elders' health?

Not so good, getting old

I need to see a doctor every now and then after the New Year.

It's tough for us too.

The house was sold.

The silver was stolen again.

The family is now almost starving.

You really live here now

Can still lie to you

If I had money, I would live in a place like this.

Where is the money from selling the house?

Lost

My brother-in-law thinks I'm like an idiot.

Eldest sister

This time last year

My sister was still a scholar's wife who needed help to walk.

Now, their movements are as nimble as...

A village woman who was used to doing rough work

This place is even worse than home.

My brother-in-law's constant complaints about being poor turned out to be true.

Don't leave tonight.

Sister will cook for you

Unsuccessful

My parents are in poor health.

There are still children at home

I have to get back.

My parents are really sick

I was sick for several months

You used to come back every two weeks.

I haven't seen anyone for months now.

No one can deliver your letter.

It is my filial impiety

I'll go back and take a look tomorrow.

You know how much money our parents have saved over the years, eldest sister.

I've posted most of them for you guys.

When you lived in a mansion

My family never pressured me.

Now the two elderly people are getting old.

Seeing a doctor and getting medicine all cost money

Our savings are almost gone.

I really can't hold on any longer

Shouldn't you take some back?

This is a matter for your Wang family.

You siblings should discuss it yourselves.

Wasn't that money spent by you?

How are your older sister's parents to you?

You know best in your heart

Other people's daughters are like water spilled from a cup once they get married.

But you bought houses and servants in the county town.

Eat and drink well

Every single time, it was my parents who gave me the money.

We really have no money right now.

You never thought about paying it back when you had money.

Brother-in-law, since I'm here today...

We can't go back empty-handed.

Parents are still waiting for money to see a doctor.

Our house was burgled twice.

You also saw

Where do you live now?

I really have no money.

Even a starved camel is bigger than a horse.

I don't ask you to continue to be filial to your parents.

Just give the Wang family all these years

You'll pay it back slowly.

It was said to be a loan

Do you have a loan agreement?

How can a debt be calculated without a loan agreement?

There was no IOU because your parents treat you like family.

It's not about taking the money and then turning your back on it.

It's fine if you don't give it to me.

I'll go to your school tomorrow and ask.

The scholar who took his father-in-law and mother-in-law's coffin money and refused to return it

Is he qualified to teach students?

You dare

Do you think I dare?

The school does not care

I went to the county government office to beat the drum and appeal for justice.

Da Bao, please be patient with your older sister for a while.

I will definitely find a way to raise the money.

Don't try to make empty promises to me.

When will you give it to me?

Give me a realistic amount.

I'm broke right now.

Then I'll stay here tonight.

I'm going to school with my brother-in-law tomorrow morning.

On the way

Or should I borrow a gong?

knock around the street

Take Zhao Xiucai for example, who used his wife's family's money to buy a house and enjoy a life of luxury.

Nowadays, elderly people see doctors

He said, "We'll talk about it later."

You're being a scoundrel.

Pay back your debts

It is only natural

When you were doing well, you didn't pay back.

Now that things are tough, they want to shirk responsibility.

There's no such thing as a free lunch.

Take these to the elderly for medical treatment first.

My brother-in-law gave the beggar a few dozen coins.

What exactly do you want?

Take as much as you can

If you don't give it to me before dark today, then leave it here.

I only kept 200 coins for household use.

I'll give you the rest.

A full tael of silver

Let's leave it at that for now.

Brother-in-law, I'll come again next month.

ah

As the head of the household, I'd like to go back to my parents' home tomorrow to visit.

Parents don't care if it's real or fake illness

I haven't been back for months.

Your brother is obviously just here to ask for money.

Those were my parents too.

I want to go back

You can't go empty-handed.

There were only 200 coins left at home.

You still want money? You're not allowed to go.

Give me a little

I can bring a few eggs.

I owe the Wang family

One or two of them asked me for money.

Who took my family's money back then?

Money for reading, buying a house, and supporting a family

Zhao Dawen, I must have been blind to have fallen for you back then.

You, surnamed Wang, say one more thing.

What's wrong with me?

A spineless coward

One

ah

Babies, thank you all for liking to dress up as a peasant girl.

Raising kids and farming is incredibly fun and exciting!

The next season is currently in rapid production.

More exciting things to come!

Remember to click to reserve and add to your favorites!

You shrew, you shrew!

I, a man, have never hit my wife.

That year, Wang carried water to the fields.

She was no longer the pampered lady she once was.

I wish I had beaten him up.

Why did I have to put up with you every day before?

Starting today

I'm in charge of this household.

Try giving me that attitude again.

My husband is a hypocrite.

None of my children truly care about me.

What have I been striving for in this life?

Mother, are you alright?

Ru Xin now wants to see a potential partner.

I need to step in.

That's why I came out after everything was over.

The children all look just like Zhao Dawen.

Always put yourself first

Why don't we send our child to school too?

They'll come back and teach us when they've learned it.

Children can go

Don't teach me when you come back

Seeing Pear Blossom's mom getting a headache from reading.

I'd rather raise more pigs.

Wait until we move into the new house

After the autumn harvest, the child was sent to

When I have more money in my pocket...

Buying some servants will also make your work less arduous.

Stop daydreaming

With hands and feet

Buy servants

If we can still harvest walnut gourds this year

I plan to buy more land next year.

Only when you have the land in your hands can you feel at ease.

Daughter, you asked me to leave the remaining areas around the house

They bought all the wasteland and fenced it off.

What exactly do you want to do?

Turn part of it into mud

Dig a few more ponds

Try growing river gourds yourself

That thing is expensive.

And we can't make a big show of it.

If you can raise them yourself

From now on, it will be a stable livelihood.

My daughter, how are you so smart?

Try it first, it might work.

Let the old man raise it again.

I want braised pork knuckle for lunch tomorrow.

We'll have shepherd's purse dumplings for dinner.

become

The leg can't really break.

If Uncle Zhao is cut off, it seems we'll have to find a new son-in-law.

But there was no cost whatsoever.

Even a stepmother wouldn't believe it.

Why are you injured again?

Uncle Chen

I'm not injured.

I need your help with something.

You are not injured.

What do you want from me?

Uncle Zhao is right

As long as I can still make money

My father and stepmother will never let me go.

I want them to feel

I won't be able to earn money in the future.

They will continue to spend their money.

You better not really ruin yourself.

I know what I'm doing.

It's just that without your help, this matter wouldn't have been possible.

They won't believe it.

Xiao Shu heard that the Xiao family's son had been gored by a wild boar.

They were all covered in snow when they were carried off the plane.

It scared me to death

Are you dead? How dare you talk like that?

He was still struggling to breathe; the doctor had been in his room all day.

I think it's risky since we live close by.

Should we go take a look?

I won't run into Xiao Ping

I'm afraid I won't be able to hold back and hit him.

Can you ask around for me?

The severity of the injury

Will he really die?

Why are you so cold-hearted today?

Xiao Lei offended you

Go when they tell you to.

Why ask so many questions?

That kid's quick.

But please don't let the act become real.

Is the doctor still alive?

I reckon he won't die.

Can that injury be healed?

It can cure at least 20 taels of medicine.

Even if his life is saved

The lungs and internal organs were severely damaged.

Hunting will no longer be allowed.

Cannot do heavy work

Where would I get 20 taels of silver?

The money Xiao Lei earned from hunting over the years

Didn't you all take it?

There aren't that many.

He hunted rabbits and pheasants, which were worthless.

Do you want to pay on credit first?

Let him pay it back himself once he recovers.

I've already told you.

He can no longer hunt.

Cannot do heavy work

What will he use to pay back?

One that can't make money

The son who also needs to take medication long-term

It's like a burden you can't get rid of.

Doctor, you stay here for now.

I suddenly remembered I had something to do at home.

I'll go back first.

Xiao Lei is probably not going to make it.

If you say you're faking illness, then you're faking illness.

Why did you really make yourself like this?

If there is no injury at all

How can I trust the person who sent me down the mountain?

You are really ruthless

Hopefully this suffering won't be in vain.

As long as the value can be completely eliminated.

Something terrible has happened at home.

My ears are not deaf

Why are you shouting so loudly?

How is your son?

completion

The doctor said the injury was very serious.

Hunting will no longer be allowed.

Cannot do heavy work

I'm out of breath after just a few steps.

They could only eke out a living.

The injury was so severe

Is the doctor lying to you?

The person's face was not visible.

The room was filled with the smell of blood

Change the water used to wash the wound several times.

The doctor said the superficial wounds weren't the most serious.

The lungs and abdomen are the real injuries.

They had originally hoped that Xiao Lei would earn money by hunting every year.

In the future, I will help my two sons build houses and get married.

Then all my planning over the years has been for nothing.

What worries me most isn't that he can't work.

The doctor said it would cost at least 20 taels of silver.

He even wants to take money from our family to treat him.

He didn't have a single copper coin.

What should we do if the doctor comes to our door again?

Whoever takes the medicine should ask for it back.

If he has no money, let him tough it out.

Rather than becoming sick and a burden to others later

It would be better to die sooner and be done with it.

Too

This is how he lived.

From now on, I'll only be a burden.

I can't let my two younger brothers suffer any more.

Where are you going?

Go and watch over him.

The grass in the field is almost waist-high.

Wait until he stops breathing before going

Dig a hole for him

This can be considered a fulfillment of the father-son relationship.

Xiao Lei is probably not going to make it.

Yang was willing to spend 20 taels to cure his dream.

Didn't they take all the money the child earned from hunting?

Recognize when taking

When vomiting, they don't recognize it.

He probably couldn't wait for Xiao Lei to go down and find his mother.

Why can't you kill a wild boar if you see one?

It could have been sold for money

I'm so useless now that I've been pushed into being a piece of trash.

The head of the household heard that Xiao Lei was seriously injured and on the verge of death.

Our daughter's marriage was just starting to look promising, how come...

Don't panic, honey, he's alright.

It's okay, everyone outside is saying the room is covered in blood.

If Mother really wants to die

Dad can still sit still now

It's just a pretext to sever ties with relatives.

Most injuries are probably just for show.

When the Xiao family heard that he would not be able to earn money in the future...

I still need to spend 20 taels for treatment.

I absolutely won't want this burden.

Would it have killed you to tell me sooner?

My legs went weak with fear.

Injury, injury

My son lay in bed for three days

They really acted like nothing had happened.

Never come even once

Still want to pretend to be deaf and dumb and drag it over?

Wait a little longer

They couldn't bear to part with the money.

We can't wait any longer.

Your parents are shameless.

I'll show the whole village just how ruthless they really are.

Uncle Chen

Where are you going?

Find the village chief

They wanted to quietly cover this up.

dream

Village chief Xiao Ping neglects his own son.

They even tried to renege on the 20 taels of medicine money.

The person lay on the kang for three days

I took care of everything.

They didn't show up.

No money for medicine

Do you want to see Xiao Lei die?

They really didn't go.

Xiao Ping stayed for half a day on the first day.

He ran away when he heard the price was 20 taels.

Then there was no one.

Who took Xiao Lei's hunting money over the years?

The whole village knows

This kind of nonsense can't come from our old sow village!

Watching the child die on the bed

You go back and keep an eye on things first.

I went to the Xiao family.

Well

Has the village chief eaten yet?

Let's have a drink together.

I'll serve you rice.

The food was quite good.

Did you send it to Xiao Lei?

He got hurt while giving her something.

We still have to serve you.

We owe him

You didn't take the money he usually earned from hunting.

It wasn't you who kicked the children out.

They even searched his house every few days.

Village chief, we're not ignoring this.

There's a ton of work to do at home and in the fields.

I really can't get away

I'll go check it out in a bit.

A while

The child was seriously injured for three days

You only just remembered?

Oh, and I'll pay Dr. Chen for the medicine these past few days as well.

this

Not a single penny.

Xiao Lei gets treatment if he has money.

You'll die if you don't have money

Don't even think about getting money from my house.

Do you cook meat at home every now and then?

How come there isn't a single penny?

Children should not eat meat to nourish their bodies

Your two sons are children.

Xiao Lei is not Xiao Ping's biological son.

village head

It's not that I don't want to care.

The two younger children in the family also need to eat.

We're having a tough time.

As long as Xiao Lei is still your son

You have to manage it for a day

The money he has earned over the years

The whole village saw it.

If you truly do not acknowledge this son

I then asked the Xiao clan chief to come and see.

How should this matter be handled?

The reputation of Old Sow Village cannot be ruined in your hands.

This is a family matter.

You're being too nosy.

I really don't want to get involved.

But you live in this village for a day

You have to abide by the village rules.

If you think I'm being nosy

You move out

Don't say anything, village chief.

I'll go see Xiao Lei right now.

Judging people

Let's clarify the cost of the medicine first.

No

He's a jinx.

Who dares to get close to him?

We're even afraid he'll bring us bad luck!

When you went to his dilapidated house to rob him of money and meat

Why aren't you afraid he'll bring you bad luck?

How did Xiao Lei get his reputation?

You don't know what's going on.

You are the head of the household.

Can you really make the decision about this?

The mother is the one who makes the decisions at home.

So you really intend to ignore Xiao Lei?

Let him live or die on his own

Go and call the clan chief.

Village Chief Bie

Let's talk things out.

Let's go see the child first.

Um

How is the doctor?

I'm only awake for less than two hours a day.

He was in a deep sleep the rest of the time.

Too much bleeding

I don't have enough medicine.

You need to go to town to catch them.

Can it be cured?

You can survive as long as you're willing to spend money.

Life can be saved

Don't expect him to hunt or do heavy work anymore.

Fortunately, I have two younger brothers.

I'll lend you a hand in the future

It can also be kept

He can forget about dragging my two sons down.

Doctor, you can go back now.

I took care of him

father

How is your son feeling?

fine

Xiao Lei, I'll save your life!

Take care of you for several days

You should pay for the medicine and the consultation fee by now.

The money that should have been given to me is all in my father's hands.

You're talking nonsense. When did I ever take your money?

You're lucky if you can support yourself.

Xiao Ping, have you no shame?

Who in the whole village doesn't know you?

The couple often went to his room to get things.

Xiao Lei occasionally gave him meat and a few copper coins.

That was a gift to me.

Not his private funds

If you continue like this

I then ordered someone to arrest Xiao Lei and his family.

Carrying bedding to your doorstep

His own father doesn't care.

The two younger brothers won't be able to shirk their responsibilities either.

Village chief, we must sever ties with Xiao Lei.

He was seriously injured and unable to move.

You are severing ties at this time

It was not a spur-of-the-moment decision

I've wanted to break it off for a long time

They only delayed it because she was young.

You also know she has a tough fate and brings misfortune to her relatives.

We also have to take care of the other children in the family.

It's tough for us too.

What if she's unlucky for the head of the household?

Harmful to two children

How will our family survive?

Waited so long

Finally, they personally pushed me out.

Have you really thought this through?

Xiao Lei is currently lying down and unable to move.

You didn't spend a single penny on medicine.

They also need to sever ties.

There was nothing we could do.

We also need to consider the two children in our family.

What happened to the money they took from Xiao Lei before?

He won't need to support us in our old age anymore.

Consider the money he received earlier as a gift to his father.

He's already like this.

You're still thinking about retirement?

Isn't it a given that one should be filial to one's own father?

What do you say, Xiao Lei?

I'll listen to my dad.

This is the last time I will fulfill my filial duty.

Regardless of life or death

I will never be a burden to them.

Since both parties agree

Xiao Ping went to invite the clan chief.

Okay, I'll go right now.

Xiao Lei

Severing ties is not child's play.

Are you really willing?

I'm willing to listen to my dad.

Ah, one is willing to hit and the other is willing to be hit.

I didn't want to persuade them any further.

It should be clearly stated that Xiao Ping took the initiative to sever ties with his relatives.

The money and things Xiao Lei has given over the years

He has already fulfilled his filial duty.

The two families will have no further dealings.

Life and death are no longer related

Both parties may have objections.

No

No

ah

I'm going to the county town tomorrow.

Transfer Xiao Lei's household registration separately

Separate household registration

Only then was the matter completely resolved.

Thank you for your trouble, village chief.

roll

It's really not good enough.

Are you satisfied now?

I've been a doctor my whole life

You dragged me into deceiving people in my old age.

Thank you, Dr. Chen.

Oh well.

Live a good life from now on

Stop putting yourself through this.

When I recover

I'll treat you to a drink.

Just drinking

It has everything: pig's head, big knuckle, and fatty chicken.

That's more like it.

When do you plan to do it?

snort

Wait a little longer until we break off the relationship today.

He'll be lively and energetic tomorrow.

It doesn't mean we're telling the whole village that we're conspiring to cheat people.

Starting today

I finally belong only to myself.

What should my daughter pack?

Four types of fillings: red bean paste, meat filling, ham, and salted egg yolk.

Um

By the way, is Uncle Liu's house almost finished?

About three more days

Shunzi's house was completed

The master's courtyard and the village chief's house started construction together.

Let's build our wall while we're at it.

The bricks have all been ordered.

Shunzi helped me place the order.

He's been going to the county town every day lately.

You should deliver zongzi to your grandfather this year.

We'll suffer together.

Zhao Dashu already has servants.

He even came to do rough work for Liu Shunzi.

Even my own brothers aren't this good to me.

They're even closer than brothers.

It's done

Broken

Cut off cleanly

You owe me two drinks.

Haha, come to my house tonight!

Xiaoyu wraps zongzi

Wine and meat are plentiful

Doing physical labor all afternoon

Drinking alcohol on an empty stomach is bad for your stomach, eat something first.

It looks like it's going to rain heavily today.

The sand and gravel on my construction site haven't been covered with tarpaulins yet.

Didn't you buy the oilcloth?

I won't feel at ease if I don't cover it up after buying it.

The rain washed away all the silver.

What are you drinking for? Go get the lid first!

The house is built

Everyone should just focus on making money.

Earn back the money spent on building the house

What other connections does this uncle have?

What else could it be?

and gourds

The same as last year.

This year there is still

Yes, but your mouth must be covered tightly.

To outsiders know

Nobody should fight

We must not repeat the lesson learned from last year's bamboo shoots.

Don't worry, we've built our houses right next to yours.

It's just for the convenience of delivery.

Good heavens, they're all cunning!

May you continue to make money this year.

The rain is so heavy

Why don't you stay at my place tonight?

Never mind

I'm afraid my wife will scold me for not coming home at night.

Dad, can you drink in the front yard from now on?

What's wrong?

You men are drinking in the yard

The master and his wife could only hide inside the house.

He finds it inconvenient to be in the same hospital with other men.

Afterwards, we'll have a get-together at Shunzi's house.

Haha, I'm settling down in Laopuzhu Village this year!

There's just too much work to do.

Ha ha

My parents weren't seriously ill at all.

My brother just wanted to go back to the past.

An excuse to subsidize the eldest son's money

Mother, how is my marriage going?

Could you make me a new dress?

My younger brother said he'll come asking for money every month from now on.

Until all past debts are paid off

Where would I get the money to buy new clothes?

There's absolutely no hope from my mother's and uncle's side.

If Jia Dong can go

Will our family's life get better?

The third child is now very resistant.

I can only watch it later.

What about the teachers in Dad's school?

Are they about the same?

Son of marriageable age

Head of household

Do you have any young people in your school who are suitable for Ruxin?

Our family's situation has spread throughout the county.

Even an ordinary teacher

They may not be willing to form a marriage alliance with us.

Is it really possible to let Ruxin marry back to the village?

I'll ask again.

I'll have a two-day break.

Let's go back to the village for the Dragon Boat Festival

The third brother will also go back.

You should talk to the Song family more.

Sweet treats for kids

The adoption was not completely finalized.

We must not give up.

Shall we still take the oxcart back then?

Why ride an oxcart?

Let's walk home

Now you have to break a copper coin in half to use it.

We can leave.

What about the children?

Ru Xin's legs had just recovered not long ago

I walk

They have the nerve to take a car.

How many coins would it cost for five people to travel back and forth?

Okay, let's walk home.

Beautiful, she's definitely my daughter.

Dad, are you praising me or yourself?

Hurry up and leave, or we'll have to stay for dinner at your grandpa's.

Walk quickly, walk quickly

Not only is the food at your grandpa's house terrible, but...

If you sit for too long, you'll get schemed against.

Dad, I've brought you some zongzi (sticky rice dumplings).

I've been hearing people talk about the third brother buying up wasteland every day these past few days.

Building a house for the master

Help Liu Shunzi with work

I get angry every time I hear it.

But the things the third brother did...

None of them are related to me.

Third brother is here, please sit down.

He even gave me a hard time a while ago because of the adoption.

Why have you become a smiling tiger today?

Why are you staring at someone's clothes?

It's not about making you closer to Xiaoyu.

Mother is wearing new clothes again.

The butterfly on her head was golden.

I want to look at people this way

I'm sure I'll find a good family.

What's your third uncle's family background?

What is our family's wealth?

You and Xiaoyu have a good relationship

He gave you his old clothes

I might even give you some jewelry.

What's the use of just having red eyes?

He was the one clinging to me before.

Now you want me to curry favor with him.

I feel terrible.

Even if it's painful, you have to accept reality.

Marriage isn't just about choosing other people.

They also pick on you

I've been studying with my teacher lately.

I go every day

The Master taught very well.

Knowing a few words is better than being completely illiterate.

Xiaoyu has become even more radiant lately.

Grandpa Xie praised

In the past, he wouldn't even bow his head when he saw his grandfather.

The little girl who dared not lift her head was long gone.

Is it really true that money emboldens people?

Fair skin covers up three flaws

You need money to support people

Hey hey hey

Dad, I really can't walk anymore.

My legs are about to break

The whole family can walk

You're the only one who can't do it.

Get up quickly

Mother will help you hold on a little longer.

Ru Xin, you should also put in some effort.

Mother really couldn't hold on.

Can Dad take an oxcart back home?

Your uncle took all the money.

Why ride an oxcart?

Previously, this granddaughter stood

He always kept his head down in front of himself.

Ask one question and answer half a question

He didn't even dare to lift his eyes.

But now he's wearing new clothes.

Wearing a gold hairpin

Laugh openly and honestly

Money really emboldens people

A little girl

Having money in hand makes them dare to be so carefree.

Dad still has work to do at home

I haven't done the homework the teacher assigned.

I'm going back now.

Dragon Boat Festival

Bring the whole family home for dinner

become

Delivering things went smoothly today.

Your grandfather didn't pester me for this or that.

Dragon Boat Festival is coming again

Dad, don't be too happy yet.

Grandpa didn't look at me like he was looking at his granddaughter just now.

It's like weighing the value of something.

Even the milkman complained that we didn't deliver enough.

My eyes are practically rolling to the sky.

You'll get used to it.

After the family splits up, we'll live our own lives.

If only I could cut ties cleanly like Xiao Lei.

Don't even think about it.

Now our family is highly sought after in their eyes.

I would never let go

father

We're back!

ah

Drink slowly, don't choke.

He can be this pathetic, I never knew he could be.

Everyone is having a hard time.

I don't feel so bad anymore.

Life in the county town is definitely harder than we imagine.

My son

How did things turn out like this?

It's such a waste to save money on these few copper plates.

Hey hey hey

Mother

My legs feel like they don't belong to me anymore.

What to do about the autumn harvest?

My whole family is counting on me

I'm going to be exhausted.

Should we let our daughter learn to do some chores too?

If we still can't find a good family...

I will marry into an ordinary family in the future.

Who would marry an ancestor who can't do anything?

Just do this.

The eldest family came back from such a long journey.

You don't even have a decent dish.

You don't know how my mother is doing this year?

We usually pay for all the food and drink for our family.

The eldest son's wife has already been separated.

Returning empty-handed during the holiday

Do you expect us to be served meat and vegetables every meal?

Where are the meat and zongzi that the third brother brought?

Heat up a zongzi for one person

Stir-fry some cabbage too

There are only so many zongzi.

What did we eat for Dragon Boat Festival today?

Why don't you go find your third brother?

Ask him to send another basket

The third brother owes us

The eldest son's wife finished eating the gifts he gave her.

Have them send it again

Okay

What's all the fuss about? Make a few more steamed buns.

How much did the eldest son eat?

I'll use my own savings to help you.

You are currently living in the second room.

Relying on a second home for retirement

Won't your private savings eventually become the money of the second wife?

They talk like they're so fair.

Large text

Children, get up and eat something!

Um

Milk

Dragon Boat Festival is coming soon

Why aren't there any zongzi?

Eat on the holiday

You guys should fill your stomachs first.

This year, the old house was built to save money.

There was no bag at all.

Eat slowly, don't choke.

Eat and then take a nap

Make more for dinner

When the old man was in school, his family was poor.

He's not studying anymore.

We're still having such a hard time.

The second-generation heirs also have some children.

Life is getting more and more miserable.

After the family split up, everyone prioritized their own small family.

We were like that back then, weren't we?

I heard that the second child will be going to...

All three sons were sent to school.

He can afford to support three

Only one year

Ask the Master a year later

Whoever has the most talent will stay.

The other two came back to work.

Let's arch that together

I think the second child's method is excellent.

If I had let my sons try it back then...

Choose the best supply

Maybe our family has more than one child who can go to school.

The eldest family

You will stay in the village for another two days.

I'm going to water and weed my own land tomorrow.

I am alone

Otherwise, the land belongs to your eldest son's family.

We can't rely entirely on the two of us old people.

Bring Ruxin

If it can't be finished in one day, then two days.

Can someone who's not strong beat me?

Good to go down to the ground

daughter

Ru Xin is looking for a partner soon.

Don't get tanned

Don't make your hands rough

Which family to look at?

It's settled.

A decent family in the county town

Nobody wanted to marry him.

Father is just getting old.

Have this plan

Which specific household has not yet been decided.

Since we're going to look at each other...

Don't go down to the ground.

Zhao Di must be getting on in years.

It's just that we don't know many people.

I don't know where to find a suitable one.

I don't even have a daughter to settle down, how can I?

Why

Since we're going to look at each other...

Don't go down to the ground.

Wasteful thing

He can't even hold a perfectly good bowl.

Mother only has one bowl

I'll buy it tomorrow.

You don't need to pay, so stop cursing.

Oh dear, now the daughter-in-law can't say a word.

Shut up

Why are you making noise during a holiday?

In this family, the only person who can keep the mother in check is the father.

The eldest son gets up.

daughter

You need someone to accompany you when you get up at night.

What night?

Roll up and get off the ground

The rooster hasn't crowed yet.

Go so early

I can't even tell which is a seedling and which is grass.

How many acres of land can you cultivate by yourself?

Why didn't you go earlier?

When will it be finished?

Don't go back to the county town if you can't finish your work.

Ruxin, you should go with your mother.

Mom, I want to sleep a little longer.

I really can't get out of bed.

How to look at someone who has gotten a tan

My mother-in-law is making me suffer.

My husband is eager for me to suffer.

Even my own daughter won't stay with me for a moment.

Since he doesn't care about me

Why should I always plan for him?

Some roads are not impossible to travel.

Ahhh

Mom, I've brought you your food. Please rest for a while.

My mother used to be more respectable than my second and third aunts.

How did she really become a village woman now?

How can a mother like that help me find a good husband?

Let's eat, Mom.

Go back.

oh

I came all this way to deliver food

He even gave me a hard time.

father

Eat more

Our family will have to eat zongzi every day after the Dragon Boat Festival.

Give some to the servants.

Cheng Shengde Fanglu

The unremarkable old man and his grandson

They also want to build brick and tile houses at the end of the village.

Where did the Qian family grandfather and grandson get the money?

How else could it have come about?

Zhao Laosan must have made a fortune.

ah

Liu Shunzi, village chief, Heizi Huzi

Even the Qian family is now building brick houses.

Why aren't we included?

Clan Chief Zhao Dashu's surname is Zhao

Having a way to make money but not helping relatives

Helping outsiders

Is this reasonable?

I myself didn't benefit from it either.

I feel more suffocated than anyone else

What is his relationship with the Qian family?

Neither his own father nor his own brother cared.

To let outsiders benefit the most

Uncle, I'm sorry

I never expected building a house would cause such a big fuss.

I'm sorry to have troubled you.

If I had known, I would have stayed in the courtyard.

Making money quietly

Uncle Qian, the money you earned yourself

What's wrong with wanting to live in a nice house?

Cover it if you need to.

When autumn comes, the river gourd will still be sent to me.

I'm just worried they'll keep an eye on us later.

This year, as long as several families move together...

There must be someone following behind.

Everyone's been keeping a close eye on our daughter this year.

How to harvest river gourds

What should we do?

What can I do? Make it into a cold dish.

Don't make a fuss, Dad's really worried.

Then we won't collect it in the village.

The area around Old Sow Village should also be temporarily avoided.

Where to go

Buy a house in the county town

Find a reliable person to watch over it.

We go there once a day.

Uncle Shunzi and the others each took a key.

The found goods were sent directly to the county town.

No need to come to our house

I go there to collect the goods once a day.

We always go to the county town

Won't be more eye-catching

They went to deliver

We usually stay in the village

Who knows what's inside the house in the county town?

How to achieve success

Clan Chief Zhao Dashu's surname is Zhao

Having a way to make money without involving one's clansmen

To benefit outsiders

Is this plausible?

Liu family village chief and Qian family both rose up

If this continues...

In the whole village, only the Zhao family is still poor.

Alright, I'm going to talk to your third grandfather.

Uncle, you're looking for my dad.

Something

You should go back to your parents' home first, it's alright.

Third brother, are you going to take care of your son or not?

The threshold of the clan's house was almost worn out by the crowds.

If I could manage it, would you need to ask me?

After the family division, he became unyielding to both soft and hard tactics.

Not to mention the clansmen

He didn't even bring his own brothers.

After the Dragon Boat Festival, invite a few elderly people to have a drink with him.

Let's talk

That's all we can do.

What exactly happened to my brother?

Why are we getting involved with Third Brother again?

What else could make the third son rich?

He also helped several households in the village get rich.

Those families are all building large brick houses this year.

Third Brother led others to get rich.

Tiger Village Chief

And then there's the Qian family grandfather and grandson—something you'd never expect!

My third brother never invites me when he brings outsiders.

When my husband gets home, he'll probably take all his anger out on me.

Oh no, I'm going to have another restless night.

How exactly does Third Brother make his money?

You really don't know anything.

I know nothing.

He covered it up tightly.

The once respectable scholar's brother-in-law

Nowadays, clothes are ordinary

He looked much more haggard.

Where are my older brother and sister-in-law?

Going to work in the fields

Sister-in-law Wang also went to the field.

After the family divided their land, no one helped them.

If I don't do it myself, who will?

The Zhao family has changed too much.

My brother-in-law owns a house in the county town.

Scholar with servants

Falling down and having to personally go to the fields

On the contrary, the most inconspicuous one before

My third brother-in-law turned his life around.

As long as we dig out Zhao Laosan's methods for making money

Don't you have houses and shops?

Big Brother during Chinese New Year

Isn't there a new sister-in-law in the family?

Why are you asking that woman?

I was just asking someone casually.

If you see her outside after she runs away...

Report to the authorities immediately

Report to the authorities

The beauty even got into a lawsuit.

What exactly happened?

What did that woman do?

Hmph, let me ask you what kind of person my brother brought back.

Our house was robbed twice

He did it all.

He was the one who was robbed twice.

He used to come from that kind of place.

The first time I secretly drugged the whole family

Stealing valuables

The second one was even more ruthless

Silver jewelry, refined rice, white flour, salt, and meat were all rolled up.

She was a frail woman

How can you move it?

Colluding with outsiders, huh?

The silver was hidden in a pit dug next to the latrine.

When I woke up the second time, all that was left was an empty pit.

The authorities haven't caught him yet.

Fortunately, I only had a little bit of a thought back then.

If you really get involved with this kind of woman

I'm afraid my Ma family will also be emptied out.

Brother, you're so foolish!

Bringing just anyone home

It's all in the past.

Why bother saying all this?

It's not me who's embarrassed.

That's how Third Brother makes money.

Do you even know?

I don't know why they covered it up more tightly than their own lives.

He even brought outsiders.

Without family

It doesn't make sense no matter what.

Why don't we go find him together?

Moved by emotions

Have a good talk

I'm not going

I'm not going either.

If it were going to be given, it would have been given long ago.

Not letting them go would be humiliating for them.

I originally wanted to borrow two

The older brother's matter pressured the third brother.

Now the plan has completely failed.

The whole clan is now focused on the third son.

Can't you try to persuade me again?

He doesn't even listen to his own father.

Do you think they will listen to you?

I must have been out of my mind to split up the family property back then.

Who knew he could make a fortune just by giving away a portion of his money?

yelling at me won't do any good.

That kid holds a grudge.

We both back then considered splitting up the family property.

He remembers you too.

After the Dragon Boat Festival, I invited a few elderly people to set up a table for a feast.

Invite him

More people

He can always say a few good words

Give it a try, great talent!

Is the family business doing alright?

Being a father is tough.

Things are expensive during years of famine

The shop's business is bad again

Maihua and I have elderly parents and young children to support.

The pressure is immense.

This year has been tough for everyone.

Just get through it.

Since my father and third brother have ways to make money

We are all one family

Shouldn't he also help his sister?

He has already separated from the family.

It's his own business if he has the ability to make money.

But we are family.

Why

You can't dig it out.

I dug it myself

I refuse to believe that Zhao Laosan can keep his secret forever.

Daughter, your grandparents' mouths were sealed shut today.

It's not about recognizing reality.

Grandpa wouldn't even bother to look at you properly.

After that, I could finally have some peace and quiet.

Why

Eat as much as you can.

Previously able to live

You can live again

The third brother's side

We can't control it anymore.

You're lucky, kid.

The Zhao family's zongzi (sticky rice dumplings) are always more fragrant than other families'.

After entering the door

Eat well every day

Uncle Chen took it to buy wine

Let me rest for a few more days.

Let's have a drink

You have a conscience.

But don't rush up the mountain.

Those wounds of yours are real.

The severing of ties has been successful.

The most important thing right now is

Don't let the village see through our scheme.

I met the Master in a while.

Everyone should know better.

Don't embarrass me

I understand, Dad.

One year

I will definitely persuade the Master to let me stay.

What my older brother can do, I can do too.

I will never lose.

Who needs to study?

The three of them

All three are your sons

yes

Have you had any early education?

No

Although the newspaper started late

But being able to read is always a good thing.

Then let's enroll together.

Tuition fees are paid monthly.

50 coins per person per month

Prepare your own writing materials (brush, ink, paper, and inkstone).

Enlightenment should use the Thousand Character Classic

You have three children

You can put one in the middle and read them together.

Save some

Thank you, Master.

Let's go buy books

ah

300 copies of the Thousand Character Classic

Such a thin book, 300 words

The cheapest calligraphy brush is 15 yuan each.

Three children would require three branches

I only dare to buy one stack of paper.

Buy only one inkstone for sharing

Mo also chose the cheapest one.

Save money wherever possible

I'll buy more when I run out.

So much money spent on the first day alone

Can I really afford to support all three of them for a year?

Didn't Mom and Dad say this morning that they still needed to...

Will you buy us fabric to make new clothes?

Shall we go now?

I took two taels of silver with me when I went out.

I thought it would be more than enough.

Who knew that the tree roots, books, and ink would only be enough for one purchase?

More than 700 articles are gone.

Let's not talk about the new cloth yet, let's go home.

Why?

My family has already spent a lot of money on my education.

We can still wear the clothes we're wearing.

You can still go to school even if you don't buy a new one.

He was the eldest son after all.

Knowing how to care for the family

Do you still have any of those big meat buns, Dad?

The promised meat buns are a must-have.

Dad's meat buns are so delicious!

I'll buy it for you during the Chinese New Year.

The eldest brother's family walked back to the village from the county town.

Exhausted like a dead dog

My three kids came and went

We also went to the neighboring village

No one said they couldn't walk.

How was your return?

Everything is done

I can go tomorrow once everything is done.

I sewed three cloth bags tonight

Bookbinding and paper/pen

The cloth wasn't meant to be given to each child individually.

Mother is someone we ourselves don't want.

The family has already spent a lot of money today.

Old clothes are fine

My child is so sensible.

When his wife found out how much money they spent today

I won't miss the new clothes anymore.

How much did it cost?

Nearly one tael of silver

The monthly tuition fee is only 50 coins per person.

The most expensive part of studying is not the tuition fee.

A thin book of the Thousand Character Classic contains only 300 characters.

The shopkeeper also said that he would study the Four Books and Five Classics in the future.

One book, one ounce, two ounces

It's so expensive, what about our three children?

Study for a year first

Tuition fee paid

I also bought the book.

You can't back out now.

I wish my older brother's books hadn't been stolen.

How much can be saved?

Even if the book is gone, he can still copy it, right?

When he comes back next time

He was asked to make a copy for each of his nephews.

Take it to the county town to sell

Also, it is possible to turn back.

Is he willing?

Nephew going to school

His uncle had no shame and didn't offer any thanks.

This is just the beginning.

The more you read, the more expensive the books become.

Which scholar wasn't built on a foundation of money?

What's that dark stuff in the little rain bucket?

Loach and eel

What are you doing grabbing this thing?

Slippery

It can also bite people

Eat these for lunch!

Loach has a muddy smell

Eels look like snakes

We have plenty of meat at home.

You have to eat this

Don't worry, Mom, I'll do it.

Guaranteed not fishy

You, the head of the household, should advise your daughter.

Don't bring everything home

It smells really good.

ah

Neither of you, father and daughter, gives me any peace of mind.

Come and try it!

Big sister is delicious

I'll take you cicada catching in a while.

It's even more fragrant when fried.

good

Pear blossoms

How about Mom finds you an embroiderer to learn embroidery?

don't want

Learning the piano

Don't

I want to go up the mountain with my older sister.

Go up the mountain to identify medicinal herbs and earn money

You should take care of this.

What do you care?

It's good for kids to be lively.

Running and jumping makes one strong

It's not like we're short of money.

In the future, who will dare to look down on Lihua because she can't embroider?

It's just that pear blossoms have such a good temperament.

At least I won't be bullied as easily in the future.

Childhood only lasts a few years

Let her have fun

I'll earn money to support my older sister from now on.

Then I'll wait.

What's wrong, sir?

You're going back to your parents' home tomorrow.

Sit right outside your third brother's door

Unable to find a way to make money

Don't come back.

Neither of the eldest nor the second eldest brothers managed to get it done.

What's the point of me going?

Third Brother is the most vengeful.

We treated him coldly quite a bit in the past few years.

Now he's made a fortune.

Why not pull in his own sister?

Mother said the clan was also trying to put pressure on Third Brother.

Going there now will only get you kicked out.

Why not wait until Mid-Autumn Festival?

Besides, Third Brother has been helping people build houses every day lately.

There really is a way to make money.

He can also do manual labor on the construction site.

Then wait until Mid-Autumn Festival

I'm putting my words here.

If I can't find a way to make money by Mid-Autumn Festival

You just wait and see.

Everyone else can build brick houses

Why can't I?

This method of getting rich

I absolutely have to get my hands on it.

Both sides agreed to the marriage.

This is the groom's birth chart.

Place your order today

From now on, we'll be proper in-laws.

A grown man marrying into the family

He seems more at ease than when he's getting married.

Don't worry, Master Zhao

Your daughter is smart and capable.

Xiao's second son was able to enter the Zhao family.

It's his good fortune

Xiaoyu's family will come to our house from now on.

You have to treat her well.

Although he is a live-in son-in-law

They also have to live like ordinary couples.

Do not be fickle

We must not emulate those wealthy households.

Three wives and four concubines

father

Do I look like a fickle person?

Dad is just reminding you

Is it possible for a woman to have three wives and four concubines?

No, our family can't.

You should just settle down and live a peaceful life with Xiao Lei.

I knew it.

You'd better hurry up and finish the homework the Master left you.

Why

There were rumors a while ago that Xiao Lei was dying.

In the blink of an eye, he became the prospective son-in-law of the third wife.

Moreover, the Zhao family's words are not just empty talk.

The matchmaker village chief's betrothal gifts and other necessities were all complete.

Zhao Laosan is determined not to be adopted from the clan.

He directly found a husband for his daughter.

Xiao Lei's life is too good.

Severing ties with relatives

Entering the rich household

Is Xiao Lei really going to marry into the Zhao family?

I placed the order today.

I heard the Zhao family gave a lot of things.

Wasn't he dying?

It would have been better if he hadn't married Zhao Xiaoyu.

He married into the Zhao family

Ouch, my teeth!

The Zhao family is so rich

Big brother will never be able to finish eating or spending money.

Can we also get rich?

Go and get some back from him.

Our family also built a brick house.

I'll go fetch a doctor.

Severing ties

My parents fainted again.

My husband fell and knocked out two of his front teeth.

Go and take a look.

I'm busy right now.

You should go to the county town.

You're perfectly fine.

They just don't want to show it to us.

You're right.

Don't come to me if your family gets sick in the future.

I won't show you.

If I don't want to see a doctor, then I don't want to see a doctor. Who cares about quacks?

My parents fainted.

Why am I dizzy?

I told him

Is the eldest brother really going to marry into Zhao Laosan's family?

They even gave a lot of betrothal gifts today.

He collapsed with a thud after hearing that.

I also bumped my head and got a big bump.

This person was stunned by the money.

Hehehe

Xiao Yong, go quickly and fetch Doctor Chen.

Doctor, can this tooth be pushed back in?

Um

You are familiar with Xiao Lei

you tell me

He really married into the Zhao family.

It's true, but why are you asking this?

You have already severed ties.

Severing ties is severing ties.

I'm also his father.

How could his marriage proceed without my consent?

No man in our Xiao family marries into the family.

I can't bear to lose face.

arguing with me won't help.

I only care about seeing a doctor.

You're alright.

He fell on his head and needed to rest.

Five coins for consultation

Just looking at it costs five coins.

I won't give you the medicine if it's not prescribed.

Unless you push his two front teeth back in.

Don't come to me to see your family members even if someone dies in the future.

Your family is the one that died.

I wouldn't even hire a quack doctor even if they paid me.

You, the head of the household, think about it.

Xiao Lei had only broken off his engagement a few days ago.

The Zhao family immediately made a decision.

And it wasn't a marriage proposal.

It was a marriage arrangement that had been made long ago.

He said he was dying.

The result was a letter of severance of kinship.

Now lively and energetic

Dr. Chen and he had such a good relationship.

Could it be that they've been conspiring to deceive us all along?

He deliberately said that he would be unable to work in the future.

It will cost 20 taels.

Forcing us to sever ties with our relatives

Scheming against one's own father

Therefore, I will not acknowledge this severance of ties.

I'll give you a break tomorrow.

Let's go find Xiao Lei.

The betrothal gifts given to him by the Zhao family must be handed over.

Not a penny less

I'll have to help my two younger brothers in the future.

He dares not support me

I'll sue him for being unfilial.

Ouch, my head is spinning again.

Lie down quickly

Get enough rest and energy

We'll go settle the score with him tomorrow.

father

The third son really found a son-in-law for Xiaoyu.

What did you say?

It's Xiao Lei from the Xiao family.

Today's matchmaker

The village chief went

The birth charter has also been changed.

The marriage has been arranged.

Isn't Xiao Lei known for bringing bad luck to his relatives?

He recruited this kind of person into the Zhao family.

Do they think we have too long a life?

Dad Dazhu

Go and call your third uncle.

Tell your mother to go find Doctor Chen.

Go quickly and call my third uncle.

My grandpa fainted.

The master and young master said that the old master fainted.

You're not going to trick me into going back again, are you?

My dad is very healthy.

It doesn't sound fake.

The second wife has already gone to fetch the doctor.

The head of the household should go and check on things quickly.

Dad, I'm with you.

Cheng, you are now practically the breadwinner of your family.

These matters should be dealt with.

Doctor, how is my dad?

Anger over nothing

Better luck than Xiao Ping

Someone caught him when he fell.

Xiao Ping bumped his head and got a big bump.

I get dizzy easily these past few days.

Xiao Ping also fainted.

He was probably stimulated after learning that Xiao Lei had married into the family.

I just didn't become his adopted son.

Xiao Ping, however, personally helped Zhao...

The son who was enjoying a life of luxury was cut off from his family and left home to discuss the tragedy.

The other party is in a worse situation.

What mischief have you gotten yourself into now, you bastard?

I immediately cancel Xiaoyu and Xiaolei's marriage.

Father and concubine were both changed

The die is cast.

Our Zhao family cannot break our promise.

Anyone can find

You just can't look for Xiao Lei.

It wasn't Xiaoyu who married him.

We are the ones who married him.

I don't care whether you marry or take a wife.

He just can't do it.

Why

He's a cursed husband, do you want me to be cursed to death by him?

Ouch, it hurts.

It's okay if it hurts.

Your inner fire is too strong.

Some blood needs to be drawn.

Otherwise, next time you'll get so angry you'll lose your temper again.

It's very possible that something serious could happen.

Big tree, you are still young

Don't make a foolish mistake

Xiao Lei's mother died.

Grandpa and Grandma died

His old hunter was gone too.

What are you gambling with your whole family's lives for?

father

Those words were originally passed down by the Yang family.

She and Xiao Ping are living happily together.

Besides, we don't live together.

She might bring bad luck to her family, but not to you.

What if? I can't afford to gamble.

snort

Didn't the village always say I was childless?

She was again said to be a jinx to her family.

A childless woman paired with a woman who brings misfortune to her relatives.

I think they're a good match.

Maybe the two of them will get together

On the contrary, it brings prosperity to the family and its people.

You unfilial son, you're just here to annoy me.

Can the big tree father harm you?

Xiaoyu has a good appearance.

You now have a family fortune.

What kind of son-in-law are you looking for?

Why bother with Xiao Lei, that jinx?

I'm quite satisfied with him.

It's not like our Zhao family has no one to rely on.

You can't bear to see Xiaoyu get married.

Couldn't you find someone in the clan you know well?

I just can't bear to see her suffer at the hands of her in-laws.

I want to stay home, Xiaoyu.

If pear blossoms wish in the future

I also went to her door.

My third brother truly loves his daughter.

Both of them wanted to stay under his nose for life.

Xiao Lei is tough

I feel uneasy.

Dad, I've had my birth charts checked.

What

I'm not the kind of person who jokes about my daughter's entire life.

I consulted three fortune tellers

All three families said that the two were a good match according to their birth dates.

Xiao Lei's entry not only did not bring him good fortune

May the rain bring prosperity to your home.

If you are still afraid

I'll get two peace charms for you and Mom tomorrow.

He can't beat you

Dad, please rest well.

We'll head back first.

My daughter can finally have some peace and quiet now.

No one's been trying to force their son into our house every day anymore.

The old house has quieted down.

Xiao Ping's side might not be so.

Let Xiao Lei handle it himself.

He's cut off all ties.

Furthermore, Dr. Chen said that Xiao Ping gets dizzy with the slightest movement.

Even if I wanted to make a fuss, I couldn't get up.

Why are you here?

Things seem to be getting a bit unsettled at home lately.

I was thinking of leaving the deposit with you for safekeeping.

Don't you keep some flowers for yourself?

I want to earn more

I can hunt

Since they are already engaged

I should go hunting less often in the future; it's too dangerous.

You even demolished that dilapidated house.

Rebuild a good one

Learn to read from the Master again

Our family doesn't need you to risk your life for meat.

Besides my deceased grandmother

No one ever seriously told me this.

I hope my life will be better in the future.

I'll listen to you.

Are you free? I'll take you somewhere.

where

On the mountain

You two have just gotten engaged, so you should avoid suspicion.

We can't always meet in private.

Let him go first.

I met him halfway up the mountain.

My dad and stepmother always run through my room.

The money I've earned from hunting over the years

I dare not bring it home.

The whole of Tibet is here

so much

Some of it I earned from selling ginseng and lingzhi.

There's an even bigger ginseng in the mountains that hasn't been dug up yet.

You saved so much

He's even willing to marry into my family.

Leave it here for now, I'll take you to dig up that ginseng.

Your father might come to see you in a few days.

I heard you fainted from anger after finding out about your engagement.

I bumped my head and got a big bump.

It's no use coming here.

I've broken off all ties with him.

Remember this sentence

That kind of person will never be satisfied

If you compromise the first time, there will be a second and a third.

No matter how much you give in front, it's useless.

After my mother died

My father died along with him.

Is Renshan far away?

It's a bit far, but there aren't many wild beasts in that area.

I won't take you to dangerous places.

The burner head is so long

At least 60 years

This kind of thing could really cost you your life in a critical moment.

Take it back to Dr. Chen

The decision of processing and selling medicine is up to you.

I brought you here to dig anyway.

I'll keep it for you.

And all that silver is with you too.

Keep them all for me

Yes, we're already engaged.

I'll ask you for it when I need it.

You can use it directly if you need it.

This means handing over all your assets.

I'll keep it for you.

If you need to use it in the future, just tell me.

With so much silver

Why haven't houses been built in recent years?

I'm afraid my dad and the others will find out.

Now they've broken off ties.

Finally, some peace and quiet.

After the houses in the village are built

I also built two brick houses.

Don't just build two rooms

Build a small courtyard

High point of the wall

Even if your dad wanted to climb in, he wouldn't be able to.

You reply first, I'll go later.

Don't let anyone see us together.

Cheng came back to my house for dinner.

You still know to come back

They ran off to the deep mountains right after getting engaged.

They're getting bolder and bolder.

It's good that you're back, stop scolding me.

Parents, please look at this first.

Where did it come from?

Xiao Lei's private stash in the mountains was over 500 taels.

Let me keep them all.

And this too.

This is also his

Yes, he noticed it a long time ago.

Never dug

Didn't we just find a poor son-in-law?

This kid wears patched clothes and lives in a dilapidated house.

He actually had more than 500 taels hidden in his hand.

So he was actually the hidden richest man in our village!

Uncle Zhao, there's something on my face.

It's nothing, you can have more noodles if you're not full.

This kid clearly had over 500 taels of silver hidden away.

But he always wore patched clothes

A house with a leaky roof

He doesn't reveal his true colors even when bullied by his own father and stepmother.

I'd love to let the whole village know if I had 10 taels of silver.

He hid his 500 taels of silver like a pauper.

How much tolerance is required?

Uncle Zhao, Xiaoyu, I'm full.

Young people should eat more

Uncle Zhao Xiaoyu

I'm leaving now.

Dad, you scared everyone away.

That girl has a deep mind.

You need to be careful in the future.

If all else fails

We can find someone else.

He handed over all his family's wealth as soon as he got engaged.

They even told me where the silver was stored.

He knew what kind of person his own father was.

I'd rather suffer myself

They didn't even show their silver.

This kind of confidence is not something that ordinary people have.

I definitely couldn't help it.

Being shrewd isn't a bad thing

As long as it's not used on your own people.

Female university student fails to get into university

That's when they started speaking up for him.

I really want to go to the Xiao family and show off.

Tell Xiao Ping

His son even paid several hundred taels of silver to marry into our family.

Let's see if he faints again.

I think he should beat you up first.

And the teacher's lessons

Have you finished writing?

We've definitely been ripped off by Dr. Chen.

He said he just needs a few days of rest.

Why am I getting more and more dizzy?

I always said that old man was in cahoots with Xiao Lei.

I'm going to settle the score with him.

You've misjudged people.

You must pay compensation.

Mother, go quickly!

I looked at my father

The doctor killed someone.

Incompetent doctors are harmful!

My man fell down

He said it was nothing.

Now I'm lying on the kang (heated brick bed).

Unable to walk

I won't lose money today.

I'm not done with you yet.

I showed it to Xiao Ping twice.

You didn't pay a single penny of consultation fee.

Last time I kindly went over

You even called me a quack and kicked me out.

Since my medical skills are not good

Go to the county town and find Gao Ming.

fellow villagers

You're not saving people just because of a few coins?

Doctors don't pay

Doctors live on air

Dr. Chen has been treating patients for decades.

He never gave leniency to anyone in need.

You still have the nerve to refuse to pay the consultation fee?

Xiao Lei was injured a few days ago

It was the doctor who was watching over them.

Your Xiao family doesn't care about your own son.

Now they have the nerve to blame it on the doctor.

Today I'm making this clear to everyone.

From now on, if any member of your Xiao family gets sick, don't come to me.

I won't treat your family.

Babies, thank you all for liking to dress up as a peasant girl.

Raising kids and farming is incredibly fun and exciting!

The next season is currently in rapid production.

More exciting things to come!

Remember to click to reserve and add to your favorites!

My man is the one you're looking at.

If you don't cure him

I'm not done with you yet.

Fellow villagers, take a look

This is our village doctor.

money-grubbing

How dare you say that?

Seeking medical treatment without paying consultation fees

They owe you

Would you dare not pay the doctor in the county town?

It's all because Dr. Chen is kind-hearted.

They specifically target honest people to bully.

Xiao Lei had just entered the Zhao family to enjoy his newfound wealth

You've even offended the village doctor in the end.

What else could this be but retribution?

I came here today to demand an explanation.

Why is everyone criticizing me instead?

I won't argue with you.

Come with me to see Xiao Ping right away.

Could someone please go and call the village chief?

Yang, what are you up to now?

You feel uncomfortable if you don't make a fuss for a day, don't you?

The village chief, Dr. Chen, ruined my man's life.

Did you pay the consultation fee?

They are all fellow villagers

Don't bring this up.

Go to the county town and find someone who won't pay.

I'll try to treat you too.

You yourself called someone a quack doctor

They're still forcing quack doctors to treat patients.

Xiao Ping went to the county town when he was sick.

Don't block people's door

But he can't get out of bed now.

We should hurry to the county town.

Doctor Chen had said long ago that Xiao Ping needed to rest and recuperate.

You let him go through all that trouble.

Can the illness be cured?

If this continues...

Not only Dr. Chen disagreed

The whole village disagreed.

Go find Xiao Lei.

Xiao Lei said your dad is dying.

Tell him to bring the silver back.

Send people to the county town

My elder brother is now engaged to the Zhao family.

My house must be full of delicious food and useful items.

If I could bring some back with me...

The money to see a doctor in the county town

Maybe we won't even need to pay for it ourselves.

Mother, don't worry, I'll go right away.

Big brother, are you home?

What's up

My eldest brother's father is so sick he can't get out of bed.

Take the silver with you

You carried him to the county town to see a doctor.

What does his illness have to do with me?

He is your biological father.

Severing ties

Even estranged relatives are still close relatives.

Dad lay on the kang (heated brick bed) in a daze for several days.

I keep thinking about you

You have the Zhao family backing you up

I have money

Can you really bear to watch your own father die?

I have absolutely no connection with the Xiao family anymore.

bother me again

Watch out or I'll beat you up.

ah

Xiao Lei, your engagement with the Zhao family is just a formality.

If they knew you didn't even care about your own father...

I'll still want you

If you want to get into the Zhao family, you have to be all humble and obsequious to us.

You can say whatever you want.

Xiao Lei, you're such an ingrate!

You'd better watch out, or I'll go tell the Zhao family.

Aren't you leaving yet?

Unless you come back with me

snort

snort

That ungrateful bastard, Mom, hit me.

He said that even if his father died, it had nothing to do with him.

Well

Go rent an oxcart

We'll send your dad to the county town right now.

It's dizziness after a fall.

You clearly didn't rest properly.

And make him walk back and forth.

That's why the symptoms are more severe than before.

Go back to lie down

Remember not to force yourself to move.

Minimize the hassle

It turns out that Dr. Chen was right beforehand.

He even went to someone's door and started yelling insults at the quack doctor.

A wasted trip

More than half a tael of silver was gone.

Uncle Zhao, I want to build a small courtyard.

I don't know anything about building houses.

Could you please talk to the foreman for me?

Sure, how big do you want to build?

I live alone

It doesn't need to be too big

Two rooms are enough

We still have to live our lives from now on.

We can't settle for this.

Xiaoyu and I will take a look at how to arrange it for you.

The main room doesn't necessarily have to be big.

But the courtyard wall, kitchen, and bedrooms all need to be properly renovated.

Xiaoyu said

You don't want to hunt anymore?

I still need to study

Okay, I'll follow your arrangements.

Xiaoyu is right.

I don't need to be fair.

But you still need to learn a few more characters.

Make yourself better than you are now

The more obedient they are, the more worried I become.

Is this kid really that honest?

I've had a matchmaker look at it.

The other party is a wealthy family in the county town

About the same age as your father

There are already quite a few concubines in the family.

He's seen you.

Willing to pay two hundred taels

200 two mothers

You're not telling me to get married.

Are you going to sell me to someone else?

It's not marriage, it's being a concubine.

The legal wife is still alive

I'm so young

You asked me to give one to my dad

Men of similar age as concubines

I learned manners from a young age.

Is it all just to become someone's slave?

I've always thought of the wife of a wealthy family.

She married a young, talented, and learned man.

Even as a mother, I can't bear to part with it.

But now, respectable families in the county town

Nobody wants to marry into our family.

Then look again.

How many matchmakers have been found?

Even your dad's colleagues at school are unwilling.

There are now only two paths.

Or stay in the city and become a concubine.

Either go back to the village and marry an ordinary person as your legal wife.

Mother, is there really no other way?

Why don't we go back to the village?

Being a concubine is not easy.

Once you're inside, you won't even have the freedom you need, you're so young.

Mother is really afraid you won't be able to fight those people.

I don't want to go back to the village.

I don't want to farm.

Even if my mother comes from an ordinary family in the county town, it's fine.

I really can't do farm work.

Ordinary families might not even look up to us now.

Even if you get married

Their lives are similar to ours now.

Doing everything myself, from laundry to cooking.

Actually, not everyone in the village is poor.

The village chief's family is quite nice.

village head

Their family is close to your third uncle.

I made a lot of money last year

This year, a large blue brick house will also be built at the end of the village.

Marrying into a family doesn't necessarily mean you have to work in the fields.

Look at your third uncle, he lives in the village just like everyone else.

There were servants and carriages

In terms of food and clothing, how are they worse than those in the city?

Rather than being looked down upon for charging high prices in the county town

Why not go back to the village for a lower price?

You are the daughter of a scholar

Married into the village chief's family

Their whole family would fawn over you.

Most importantly

The village chief has a good relationship with the third branch of the family.

How did his family become rich?

After we became in-laws

Can you still not know anything?

Mom, you talk to Dad.

If only I could live the life my third uncle's family had.

It's not entirely impossible in the village.

matters concerning the concubines of the Tian family

Did Ruxin agree?

No

I've thought of something better.

The village chief's youngest son is of suitable age.

The family is rich

She also got close to the third brother.

200 taels is a one-off deal.

Marrying into the village chief's family, however, was a long-term, steady relationship.

The son-in-law's life is good

Can you not help us?

Let's talk about the secret to the third wife's wealth.

Why don't we just infiltrate their ranks?

Yes, you've thought it through perfectly.

Being a concubine has a bad reputation.

It's not good for a scholar like me either.

Marrying into the village chief's family would be different.

And it's like we've directly infiltrated the third-ranked team.

This time, the husband divorced

Let's go back together.

First, sound them out, don't delay.

There was also a concubine named Zhaodi in the family who was being arranged to marry.

It would be troublesome if she beat me to it.

How can Zhao Di compare to Ru Xin?

They didn't know that Ruxin was willing to marry back to the village.

My little Yu has already made a reservation.

Your youngest son is still dragging his feet.

That kid isn't looking for a wife.

Is it to find a fairy?

To have a beautiful figure

Not fat, not thin

Capable and good-tempered

Also need to be filial

The most important thing is to have something to say to him.

Where can you find someone who can pick from ten miles around?

I don't even dare to go to a matchmaker.

The requirement is stated

People are afraid they'll think I'm deliberately picking a fight.

Let him remain a bachelor then.

That's what I think too.

Beat him up and then leave him a bachelor

Hahaha

The third brother has something else.

Your second brother hinted at it through someone a few days ago.

I want to marry Zhao Di to my youngest son.

Why did my second brother decide to go to your house?

Hmph, I guess they're interested in me because I'm the village chief.

I have a few silver coins in my hand

Although Zhao Di is my own niece

But to be honest

She's really something else.

He is not very smart

But he was ambitious

They also love to pick the best.

If you really don't like it, then refuse to be clean.

I already declined.

But your second sister-in-law acted as if she didn't understand.

The matchmaker is still sending messages to my house.

It's not that I didn't understand.

I can't bear to part with your thick thigh.

So what can we do? A girl's reputation is important.

I can't say anything too harsh.

Tell your son not to go with...

Zhao Di went to a deserted place.

What do some members of our Zhao family want?

The process is not important

Results are the most important.

They really stuck with it.

Even if you explain it then, it won't be clear.

I'll warn that brat when I get back.

Either quickly pick one that you like and settle down.

Either stay home quietly for now.

By the way

After this batch of houses is built

Xiao Lei's courtyard was also built together.

Get it ready before winter

No problem, when the rice gourds are ready to be harvested

No one has time to guard the construction site anymore.

What's wrong? Are you comfortable living in the new house?

It's still too lonely without me by my side.

Is Zhao Dayong sick?

He contacted you too.

How did you know?

Was this your idea?

Don't do it

The village chief just came to complain.

The second brother also told Zhao Di that he had gone to his home.

How many daughters does he have?

What if we agree to all of them?

Then choose the richest and most...

The one with the highest dowry.

Wow, your second brother really knows how to have fun!

So you've taken a fancy to Zhao Di?

Even if it were given to me for free, I'd still consider it a waste of food.

What's our relationship with your second brother all these years?

He actually dared to send his daughter to my house!

As long as there is silver

Second brother doesn't care whether the relationship was good or bad before.

He's currently short of money because all three of his sons are in school.

This person is trying to use their daughter to earn money to support their son.

Don't just laugh at others

Where is your spring seedling?

I'm getting old.

Hehehe

There are some that you like

Kuroko's Boy

The two women had already mentioned it a couple of days ago.

I haven't formally asked the child yet.

Such a big thing was kept from me

It's not decided yet.

However, the Kuroko family is well-known.

I definitely won't bully Chunmiao.

Hmm, that's true.

It would be great if it actually happened.

My Chunmiao is a bit silly.

I was worried she wouldn't be able to get married.

Even if she's stupid, she's still better than Zhao Di from my second brother's family.

Look, you've almost reached an agreement on this side.

He'd cast his net around the area but still hadn't seen anything.

Haha, your third uncle really has a sharp tongue, hahaha!

Light rain

Dad will tell you a joke

I want to hear too.

You can go outside, but you're not allowed to talk nonsense.

Um

Your second uncle and aunt arranged a marriage for Zhao Di.

Don't ask one by one

They asked all the wealthy households in the village.

The village chief's family asked

Shunzi's family also asked.

Can you even say that to a couple?

What if all of them agree?

Then choose the richest and most successful.

The highest dowry, haha.

How can you do things like this?

If it gets out

How will Zhao Di find a husband in the future?

That's why I called it a joke.

They thought they were clever.

Maybe in the end it will all be for nothing.

My second uncle isn't afraid of playing with fire and getting burned?

Haha, you should take care of your own child.

Let's just watch the show.

Let's go settle scores with that bastard Xiao Lei.

I'll go with you.

Xiao Yong will help your father in a moment.

That little bastard dares to hit you

I haven't gotten my revenge yet.

Here it comes!

The Xiao family finally went to make trouble for Xiao Lei.

It's a bit late.

The good show finally didn't end.

Big Tree Xiao Ping is going to cause trouble for your future son-in-law.

Should we go and support them?

Need not

They've all broken off ties.

Xiao Lei can't even handle this little thing himself.

How will I live with Xiaoyu from now on?

But things really escalated quickly.

I might have to trouble you again.

I understand.

Xiao Lei, get out here!

Fellow villagers, please judge this matter.

He got engaged without his father's knowledge.

Providing door-to-door beauty services

They didn't even ask us.

I was so sick a while ago that I couldn't get out of bed.

He didn't come.

He even beat up his younger brother who went to call him.

This unfilial son

I disagree with his marriage.

Cannot be counted

Uncle, you forgot?

We have broken off ties.

I will of course make my own decisions about my marriage.

You don't need me to visit you when you're sick.

Even if we sever ties, I'm still your father.

I raised you

My mother raised me when I was a child.

Later it was grandparents

Then came the old hunter.

After Mother died

Besides asking me for money, you and Madam Yang...

What have you ever cared about me?

Hahaha

Good heavens!

Being a stepmother is tough.

I raised a thankless wretch with all my hard work.

Hahaha

Yang, stop crying foul.

What do you think of Xiao Lei?

Who in the whole village doesn't know?

He was dying a while ago

The village chief went to call you, but you ignored him.

He also took the initiative to sever ties with his relatives.

People's lives are better now.

So you suddenly realize we're family?

Doctor Han even owes consultation fees

How dare you say you love your child?

Originally, he wanted to use the villagers to pressure Xiao Lei.

Unexpectedly, everyone stood on the other side.

What do you know?

Xiao Lei, put your hand on your heart and tell me.

Have your father and I mistreated you all these years?

Then you should also ask yourselves honestly.

Uncle Xiao, were you ever really good to me?

Do you think you're good to me?

You have no conscience.

That's what your grandparents said to you before they passed away.

Old Master Xiao was a kind and honest man all his life.

Being so angry with her own son that she moved out

It's clear she's truly heartbroken.

He insisted on marrying Yang.

They don't even want their own parents.

Now they're teaching their son to be filial.

Today is a family matter.

It has nothing to do with you anymore.

Hahaha

I have no family matters to discuss with you.

The document severing kinship ties is in the hands of the village chief and clan head.

My household registration has already been transferred out.

Now I live alone.

Uncle, stop randomly claiming relatives.

Even if we sever ties, I'm still your biological father.

You also have to support me in my old age.

Brother, we'll always be brothers.

Dad was so sick a while ago

You don't come home

How heartbroken he was

You come back with us.

Can't a family just live together peacefully?

Treat me like an older brother

Who used to call me trash?

Say that your parents will always be yours.

I can only live in a dilapidated house.

When I was seriously injured

The doctor and the village chief will come to call you.

Have you even taken a look?

Dr. Chen took care of me.

No money for medicine

The village chief came to visit.

You also said that you took it before

The silver was my gift to Uncle Xiao.

This is true.

I saw the village chief make two trips back and forth that day.

The letter of severance of kinship was written clearly.

All the money I've earned from hunting over the years is earmarked for my retirement.

From that day on

I don't owe the Xiao family a single penny.

Now the Zhao family has made a decision.

You've come again.

Ultimately, it's just about having something on your mind.

Those things and silver?

Stop spouting nonsense.

There is nothing.

Not a single coin

When I was dying

Dr. Chen was watching over me.

Knowing I have no money

They didn't throw me out.

If I really need to take care of someone in my old age

Let's provide for Dr. Chen in his old age.

Does this child even know who is truly good to him?

Xiao Ping himself pushed his son away.

They still have the nerve to come back and steal it?

Don't come looking for me again.

Will my future be good or bad?

It's all my own fate.

But I am your brother

Dad got injured this time because

I heard you were heartbroken after your engagement.

You don't go to see him

What will outsiders say about you?

Why did he faint?

You know better than I do

I'm really worried about my son.

The signing wouldn't have been so quick on the day the ties were severed.

The days when Xiao Lei was seriously injured

The aroma of meat still wafted from the Xiao family kitchen.

Only Doctor Chen remained in the dilapidated house.

You and Xiao Qiang are actually brothers.

You said that yourself.

ah

I didn't have brothers before.

There won't be any more in the future.

Not only do I have no brothers

I have no father or mother.

You wretched child, I'll beat you to death!

ah

Let me go, my life was given to me by Lao Tzu.

Since he doesn't acknowledge me

I'll take my life back right now.

Father forces son to die

This is the first time I've ever seen anything like this in my entire life.

If you don't expect anything, you won't be sad.

Xiao Ping, aren't you ashamed enough?

Chieftain, I am his biological father.

Once you sever ties with your family, no matter who you are, it won't matter.

I only asked you to take care of my seriously injured son for a few days.

Severing ties by pressing one's own fingerprint

Now that they see others living well, they regret it.

That's impossible!

I knew that kid wasn't someone to be trifled with.

I didn't argue with them before because I was too lazy to argue with them.

He was really pushed to the limit

Xiao Pingyang couldn't get the better of him.

What should we eat tonight?

Dad felt hurt because he misjudged people.

Stew a pork knuckle to nourish yourself

No pork knuckle

It's so hot

Eat green vegetables at night to cleanse your stomach.

What should the head of the household do?

All the companies we had our eye on rejected us.

They rejected them all.

The village chief's family doesn't want it

Liu Shunzi's family doesn't want it

The other households also pushed their orders.

Zhao Di finally agreed to look at these few places.

None of them have succeeded yet.

They all look down on our daughter.

Could it be that you're looking for a fairy from heaven?

Could it be that they know we don't get along with the third brother?

That's why I deliberately refused.

He wouldn't marry her

Can we still stubbornly cling to it?

Let's go check out other places.

Zhao Di refused.

Even worse conditions

She probably wouldn't even want to see her.

Sometimes you have to accept your fate.

Having high aspirations doesn't guarantee a high destiny.

Let's search slowly.

There are truly hardworking and reliable people.

We'll order it for him directly.

I'm afraid my older brother will find Ruxin an exceptionally good one.

Zhao Di was even more dissatisfied.

Even if you feel at ease, it's hard to believe.

My brother's current place is not as good as ours.

People in the county aren't blind.

He picks others

Others also pick on him

Is it really that bad?

I saw it with my own eyes.

Ordinary city families live a tight life

Not necessarily better than the village

We can't let our daughter's marriage be arranged as she pleases anymore.

The longer you keep it, the more trouble you'll have.

If you find a suitable one, then place your order.

The eldest brother won't get up early without a reason.

I also bought pastries today.

It's never good news.

My father, Nina, is currently seeking a spouse.

Could you please check if there are any suitable families in the village?

It was so difficult to raise Ruxin in the county town

Why did you suddenly want to marry back to the village?

father

It's not that I want her to come back.

Nobody in the county town wants to marry her.

What's wrong with our Ru Xin?

It's not that she's bad

It's because I'm down on my luck now.

In the past, people looked down on our family for being poor.

Ru Xin's family couldn't help her.

The world is so cold and heartless.

It must all be city dwellers with influence.

Since you really want to find it in the village

Which unit do you like?

The village chief's house is the best

Liu Shunzi's family

Several families that are close to the third brother are also acceptable.

The son is looking at more than just people.

It is the wealth that these people accumulated together with the third wife.

Leaving aside the others

I also think the village chief's youngest son and Ru Xin are the best match.

His father is the village chief.

There is money in the house

If Ruxin marries into that family, it's considered a marriage of convenience.

The son and father had the same idea.

Leave this to me.

We can't be too eager.

It's like Ru Xin can't get married.

The village chief's family can marry our Ruxin

They are the ones who benefited.

Our eldest granddaughter was raised in the county town.

And not bad looking

The village chief's family now has money.

After the engagement is finalized, the betrothal gifts must not be less.

Your son is waiting for your good news in the county town.

Is there really no other way for us, the head of the household?

If only the letter of severance could be torn up.

The government offices have all filed the records.

What's the use of tearing paper?

The villagers are now all on Xiao Lei's side.

Or should we go find him privately, away from everyone?

Say a few soft words

He might just accept you.

I don't think it's that simple.

You saw it that day too.

He showed absolutely no signs of being seriously injured.

The person who said he was about to die

He recovered immediately after the breakup.

Zhao Jiayou immediately made a decision

What a coincidence!

You mean he faked that injury?

Dr. Chen conspired with him to cheat us.

It's most likely intentional.

He described himself as a useless person who couldn't work.

Forcing us to sever ties with them

Well, those two bastards conspired to cheat us!

Xiao Lei has now climbed up to the Zhao family

We won't get any advantage at all.

What will happen to Xiao Yong and Xiao Qiang when they get married and build houses?

When I feel better

He was spoken to privately, away from the villagers.

We are family with him.

He needed his maternal family to gain a foothold in the Zhao family.

Be gentle with you then.

Let's get them back first.

It's not because I can't bear to part with my son.

Rather, they couldn't bear to part with the Zhao family's wealth.

You don't need to go to the school anymore.

The tutor at home said

A student is also a teacher

Both are also teachers

You come to study with me for one hour every morning.

No need to prepare books or paper

Thank you, Uncle Zhao.

Construction will begin in 5 days.

The house was demolished and there was nowhere to live.

Let's move to my front yard first.

Don't even think about the backyard.

You and Xiaoyu aren't married yet, you should avoid suspicion.

I know I won't let people gossip about her.

And I need to study hard.

I'll help Xiaoyu the housekeeper from now on.

Don't let us down

I will.

Wear this outfit first

There's another set under construction.

Come to my house for dinner every day from now on.

It's troublesome if you're the only one firing.

My aunt's needlework is really good.

Why be so polite among family members?

Eat more

You're as skinny as a monkey.

Since Grandma passed away

It's been a long time since anyone made me clothes.

Nobody told me to eat more.

Arrived so early

I'll wait for you, Uncle, take your time.

Dad is so hardworking

You should get up earlier from now on.

You read together in the morning

Okay, I'll go with Uncle from now on.

The two of them don't need to speak to disturb each other.

Come back when it's time for class.

Uncle Zhao has learned so much in less than a year.

I need to catch up quickly.

I can't let Xiaoyu down in the future.

Ahhh

We won't need these anymore.

This place holds memories of my loneliest days.

But when it really came time to dismantle...

I didn't feel any reluctance at all.

One, two, three pushes

Starting tomorrow, the new house will officially open.

The old house is gone.

It's time for me to start a new life.

This is perfect for hot weather.

If it gets cool at night, add another sheet.

Thank you, Aunt Song.

I used to envy Xiaoyu for having parents who loved her.

Now it feels like I suddenly have a home.

No wonder the Xiao family can't tolerate you.

Eat like this

It can really eat people out of house and home.

It's a blessing for a young man to be able to eat.

Stop talking nonsense.

You two should eat more slowly in the future.

Like a robbery

Hot weather makes me lose my appetite.

You should eat something cooling.

Who ate half a chicken yesterday?

As long as the family can earn money

They can afford this amount of food.

Is building a few rooms and having a courtyard a bit too small?

Let the Zhao family buy more land.

It will be more spacious to live in if it's built bigger.

I'm talking to you.

Humph, they've broken off the relationship, why do they care how big their house is?

Hmph, I'm afraid they've already got their eyes on this.

Who will get the house in the future?

See? Your eldest brother has now climbed up to the Zhao family.

He doesn't even respect his own father.

After the house was built

Please come and visit more often.

Brothers never hold grudges overnight.

Over time, he will eventually soften his heart.

Mother, I'll listen to you.

Hmph, what's so great about fawning over a live-in son-in-law?

You don't know anything.

He will have money in his hands later.

The ones who severed ties were their parents.

It's not me.

I'm his younger brother.

What to do about the old man?

The village chief actually disagreed.

I didn't expect it either.

He said his son was not good enough for Ruxin.

The words sound nice

Isn't that basically a rejection?

Our Ruxin is the daughter of a scholar.

His son is a peasant.

What's he so arrogant about?

I was originally thinking of putting on airs.

Ask for more betrothal gifts

Now it's all good.

They don't even want to get married.

Ru Xin isn't stupid.

They are also literate and polite

Why is nobody wanting them all all of a sudden?

Let's wait a little longer.

They need to give an explanation.

It's been a month and there's still no progress.

This is such a blatant disregard for Ruxin!

You should hurry up and arrange a marriage for your youngest son.

If this drags on any longer, things could get complicated.

I also think your Zhao family's daughter is too scary.

One is Zhaodi, the other is Ruxin

They're all watching my son.

I'm talking about the daughters of your eldest and second eldest brothers.

Light rain is certainly different.

How could she compare to them?

Village Chief Unsuccessful

Or maybe we should ask Liu Shengzi's family.

I'm not going to see Liu Shengzi and Lao San, they're in cahoots.

I'd rather find someone else.

How do I explain this to the boss?

To be honest

I'll let myself out tomorrow.

It is said that Ruxin is willing to search for her relatives in the village.

See if anyone comes to your door.

You were the one who saw it first yesterday.

Today is my turn.

I haven't reviewed what the Master taught today.

I want to see it too.

Since the third wife took in a son-in-law

The large pillar was stimulated

Studying hard every night

I can't bear to spend another 300 coins to buy books.

The only option was for the three sons to take turns fighting over it.

The head of the household has found a husband for his daughter-in-law.

A family in Yangjia Village has 20 mu of land.

He had only two sons

The man is the eldest son

Tall and strong

A good worker

This family has a good financial situation and good character, with 20 mu of land.

The matchmaker said that being clever is just being naive.

Sun-dried in the fields year-round

What's there to be afraid of if the dealer has a bad reputation?

The most important thing is to be willing to work hard.

But Zhao Di always wanted to find someone good-looking and rich.

Not going down to the ground

I actually saw a farmer with a tanned complexion.

I wonder what kind of trouble this will escalate into next.

You said that someone has 20 mu

The two sons divided the family property.

One person can still have 10 mu

Our three sons

What points will I get in the future?

Now I realize we have quite a lot of land.

It can be divided among the three sons.

How much is left for one person?

What if they have more children later?

According to you

100 acres of land is not too much.

So we need to find a way to make money to buy land.

I'll raise two more pigs and more chickens next year.

If all else fails, I'll grow vegetables.

You pick out items to sell in the county town every day.

selling vegetables

Small courtyard in the city

Many people have to buy vegetables even if they don't grow them themselves.

Let's try it first.

Even selling a single copper coin is income.

As long as it can be sold

What's a little tiredness?

There's always a way when you reach the mountain.

We can't just watch our three sons...

They won't even be able to get farmland in the future.

You really didn't tell your aunt?

Can you still come out after saying it?

Don't worry, we'll just find the medicinal herbs.

Don't go to dangerous places

I'll teach you to identify medicinal herbs later.

Don't run into the deep mountains by yourself.

What are you looking for?

I'll help you find it.

What I want is the joy of finding treasures myself.

You dig it up and give it to me.

What's the difference between buying it from a shop and buying it from me?

snort

There is gold here.

Is it valuable?

It should be more valuable than ordinary medicinal herbs, you should dig it up.

Be careful not to damage the root.

What are you holding?

Snakes are not poisonous.

Take it back to make snake soup

There are more than just snakes here.

And venomous snakes

Don't run around.

Take a stick and tap the grass before walking.

You know I value my life very much

That's about enough, let's go back.

Anyway, I'm sure I'll get a scolding when I get home today.

It seems unlikely I'll be able to go out again anytime soon.

You're the one who got scolded.

I'm the one who usually gets punished.

We're back!

Is Chen Sao hungry?

Hurry up and serve the food.

Didn't you say you were going to teach him a lesson when you got back?

I starved to death after only eating some dry food for a day.

The harvest was huge!

We'll get the snake gallbladder tonight.

The snake meat was kept frozen in the well.

I'll make snake soup for you tomorrow.

Dad, what are you spacing out for?

I didn't eat beforehand

I'm sorry, Mom and Dad.

I was bored at home, so I dragged Xiao Lei there.

He initially refused.

I'll definitely let you know before I go up the mountain in the future.

You're not young anymore.

Can you be more steady in doing things?

Are we starving?

We absolutely have to go into the mountains to catch snakes.

I just wanted to relieve my boredom.

And they didn't go to dangerous places.

I'll learn needlework from my mother tomorrow.

Embroidering at home is never boring

Don't make me make all the clothes.

Why buy so many people for the family?

Dad isn't stopping you from going up the mountain.

It's because I'm afraid of danger.

People are always prone to oversights.

That's why I brought Xiao Lei along.

He knows the mountains better than anyone else.

I was careless.

Why did you insist on finding your daughter a hunter in the first place?

Unable to control the light rain

Then let's deal with Xiao Lei.

As long as that kid doesn't take him along

Let's see how he gets into the deep mountains.

When my family was extremely poor...

He looks down on everyone

Now I have money

They were all scrambling to put their sons into my house.

But he never dreamed of it.

I chose Xiao Lei by chance.

Even more unexpected

This poor hunter actually had more than 500 taels of silver hidden in his hands.

I practically dragged Xiao Lei along when his parents went into the mountains.

Don't take your anger out on him.

I went back inside to process the medicinal herbs.

Don't listen to Xiaoyu's instigation anymore.

You are older than him

Familiar with mountain roads

You should know what you can do.

What cannot be done

If he says go, then you go.

He said if you go a little deeper, you'll...

Uncle Zhao

I was wrong

What went wrong?

I shouldn't have brought Xiaoyu into the deep mountains.

I shouldn't have kept it from Uncle Mo

I will never do it again.

I will never sneak up the mountain again.

Reading from the book is more tiring than a teacher lecturing.

Ahhh

Babies, thank you all for liking to dress up as a peasant girl.

Raising kids and farming is incredibly fun and exciting!

The next season is currently in rapid production.

More exciting things to come!

Remember to click to reserve and add to your favorites!

The snake is dead, don't be afraid.

The snake soup will be ready in a bit.

I'll send you one too.

If my daughter were like this...

The punishment is to wear the "Admonitions for Women".

The girl from the main family is too fierce!

This potted plant will be sent to the Master's family.

Light rain

Chunmiao is getting engaged.

So soon with whom?

Kuroko's son

The two parties have reached an agreement.

Next month

Is Chunmiao willing herself?

She's so young, what opinions could she possibly have?

The Kuroko family is also well-known.

Then I need to prepare a gift for her.

She had given me a hairpin before.

Your uncles seem to have the same opinion.

Everyone wanted to marry their daughter to the village chief's family.

As a result, the village chief's family didn't want it.

Didn't my second uncle's family reject them all?

Now it's your uncle's turn to be rejected.

Is it because she's not our Zhao family's granddaughter that nobody wants her?

They weren't just looking for a son-in-law.

Mingming still wants to dig out our ways to get rich.

Sister, let's really go catch cicadas!

Yes, but we didn't catch the birds that chirp in the trees.

It's about catching cicada nymphs that have just emerged from the ground.

This is the best time to catch

cicadas

Mmm, it's delicious fried!

Wait for Dad a while

They haven't caught them yet.

You took the wine first.

This is preparation in advance.

There are many cicadas on the back hill

Especially under the old locust tree

As soon as it got dark

One catch and one hit

Have you found it before?

I used to catch them when there was nothing to eat.

How come he knows everything?

That's perfect, you can lead the way tonight.

I'll go too

And me

Don't go too far, come back before it gets completely dark.

ah

Where is it?

Look at this kind of cave

It's out

Caught one

Give it to me! Give it to me!

I can't see any of them.

Dad, don't keep looking up.

Money on the ground

Sister's place

Give

Thanks!

I can reach it.

Dad, weren't you over there just now?

I have long legs, so I can get there in two steps.

Here are two

Sister, I still have some here.

More here

There should be quite a few underground.

It's humid tonight.

The cicada nymphs are all getting ready to come out.

An inconspicuous

But if you can catch dozens in one night

Hundreds of them

This thing is neither planted nor fed.

It can grow out of the soil on its own

No capital required.

There are more mosquitoes than cicada nymphs

Let's catch it for a while longer.

Mosquitoes could really carry us away!

ah

Did he wipe out the cicadas' homeland?

I ran in the mountains since I was a child

Familiar with

You really want to eat this

Mother is waiting

It smells so good

It smells so good

I think someone in the county town would be willing to buy this.

Who would spend money to buy insects?

People in taverns eat all sorts of snacks to go with their drinks.

This fragrance is quite rare.

The cost is almost zero.

Turn unwanted things into something

Things that others are willing to pay money for

I'll grab another basket tomorrow.

Aha

People actually eat this.

Please try one first.

Hmph, if you won't eat, I will.

fragrant

What's this good stuff?

insect

Can I have one?

It smells so good, I'll have one too.

Wait, don't finish it all!

The boss is now wondering if it's possible to sell.

How many of you do you have left?

Not many for now

I want as many as you have.

People actually pay money to buy insects

Daughters can really make money.

You can earn money, but only for a short time.

Why

Firstly, this season has many [items/products]. Secondly...

Relying on the few of us to catch

How many can be caught in a day?

Let Uncle Shunzi and the others catch it together.

The river gourd planting season is about to begin.

Therefore, cicada nymphs should not be considered a big business.

Then why do it?

Of course, do it.

The village children and elderly are usually free in the evenings anyway.

Let them catch

We collect them by size, fry them all, and sell them all at the same time.

We won't catch them ourselves.

father

Um

You catch it yourself every day

How many can be caught?

Let 100 people catch them for us

We are only responsible for buying, selling, and processing.

That's what business is all about.

No wonder you earn more money than your dad.

Dad is amazing too

father

How much land do we have now?

Why are you suddenly asking this?

I just feel

Before, the first thing I thought about when I opened my eyes was how to make money.

Now there's more money.

I actually feel more secure having my own place.

You still want to be a landlord

Why not?

A house is a home

The land is also a home point

We can buy good land in the future.

Build another granary

What to do if you can't finish the food?

You can sell what you can't finish.

If you really encounter a famine

You can't cook porridge with silver notes.

What exactly does "Dad, the village chief's family" mean?

Why haven't they even sent a matchmaker yet?

I've already asked around on behalf of Zhao Ruxin this past month.

Several well-off families in the village

Without exception, they all refused.

I originally wanted my eldest granddaughter to be one

Once the news was released, requests were solicited from all quarters.

Unexpectedly, reality...

Da Wen's marriage proposal to the village chief has fallen through.

What does "yellowed" mean?

They said their son wasn't good enough for Ruxin.

What gives his family the right?

The village chief's family refused the marriage proposal.

They look down on my daughter, Ruxin.

They didn't say that.

He only said that his own son was not good enough for Ruxin.

I don't want the scholar's family

The pampered young lady suffered grievances after marrying into the family.

That sounds nice.

If you don't want to get married, just say so.

Why use such words to disgust people?

It's not like his family is the only one in the village with a son.

The Sun family, the Song family, and the Zhou family are all acceptable.

Change it again

We've already asked those families.

There are about a dozen families in the village whose conditions are still acceptable.

They basically all spoke through words

Nobody wants to

More than a dozen

Do not wish for anything

Parents

How are Zhao Di's recent job hunting going?

Call the second son over and ask him.

father

What do you want?

How is Zhao Di's marriage going?

There is a suitable family in the outer village

I'm planning to go check it out in a couple of days.

Not found in this village

Ru Xin

They found a family in the county town.

Your older brother has had a rough year.

People in the county town are snobbish

We were thinking of giving it to Ruxin

Pick a reliable one in the village.

Who knew that the village chief's family, the Song family, the Zhou family, and all of them would refuse?

They also rejected Nina Wang.

What does "also" mean?

To be honest

I also asked someone to let Zhao Di know about these companies.

They all refused.

The reasons are all the same.

Saying their own child is not good enough

Such a big thing

Why didn't you say so sooner?

It's not honorable.

Little did I know my older brother would also return to the village to find a son-in-law.

Second brother, how's that family from the other village you found for Zhaodi?

Are there any suitable options outside the village?

If you find someone suitable, please find one for Nina Wang as well.

These people must know

We don't get along with the third brother.

That's why he was unwilling to get married.

They clung to the third brother.

Maybe he's still thinking about Xiaoyu.

Big Brother Xiaoyu is already engaged.

Decided with whom

Xiao Lei

That hunter

He became a live-in son-in-law.

The third wife is seeking a son-in-law.

After the rain, the Liu family will inherit the family business.

The child also has the surname Zhao

There's no hope for Na Jiadong to be adopted.

Why didn't you stop them, Father?

snort

When has my third brother ever listened to us?

Large text

You still have to rely on yourself

You can't rely on your parents or brothers forever.

ah

Why are you looking at me?

Ruxin at home should just become a concubine.

All three sons will need money after they go to school.

Jiaqiang and Jiadong will conduct scientific research in the future.

It's like money is flowing out of the bank.

More than a dozen families in the village didn't want her.

There are no decent families to be found in the county town.

What's the point of dragging this out?

She didn't want to

Go and persuade them.

The other party is willing to give two hundred taels.

Once things calm down at home

Let's redeem her again.

Wouldn't she really be forced to retire to the inner quarters?

Make sure she agrees.

If she didn't become a concubine, she could only marry into an ordinary family.

Go to work in the fields

Babies, thank you all for liking to dress up as a peasant girl.

Raising kids and farming is incredibly fun and exciting!

The next season is currently in rapid production.

More exciting things to come!

Remember to click to reserve and add to your favorites!

When will the village chief's family come to propose marriage?

How much dowry?

Ruxin, listen to your mother.

The village chief's family refused.

Why should they refuse me?

What's wrong with me?

I am the daughter of a scholar

Marry into their family

They don't even look down on it

It's not that you're bad

They're blind.

Mom will think of a way for you.

Mother, I'm not going back to the village.

Can you find me a few more matchmakers?

Ordinary families in the county town also became

Ru Xin has searched for everyone she needed to find.

The wealthy family Mom told you about before

I will never be a concubine.

Second son

When you find a husband for Zhaodi

Also, pay attention to Ru Xin

daughter

A concubine is a slave

There is no freedom after entering.

Even after giving birth, you can't raise the child on your own.

You can only call me Auntie

How could you bear to let me go?

So you're planning to keep dragging this out?

A girl from a good family shouldn't remain unmarried forever.

You can always find it if you keep looking.

Xiaoyu is engaged.

Who is he with?

It's Xiao Lei, the hunter who lives next to the third house.

But it's not Xiaoyu's wedding.

It's a three-room house seeking a live-in son-in-law.

Xiaoyu will stay at home to inherit the family business.

Uncle San cherishes him so much

In the end, they found him a poor hunter.

Zhao Xiaoyu is only a few

The freest of the girls

As long as there is a suitable

Tell me immediately

knew

So, did you agree?

Unwilling

He still wants to find a matchmaker.

And the head of the household

Dad needs to know about this.

I'm afraid they'll tear us apart.

Even the poorest families in our village

No one would send their daughter to be a concubine.

Knowing it's shameful

He hurt his daughter but still insisted on becoming Zhao Dawen.

You're really being a jerk.

Was I wrong to urge him to get engaged sooner?

If it drags on any longer

Who knows which company will come up with this idea next?

If there's no suitable one, just make a firm decision.

If things don't go well in the future, who will be responsible?

You didn't listen to his demands.

She should be beautiful, have a good temper, be capable, and be filial.

We still need to talk to him.

What good girl would want to marry such a fool?

I've been going out less lately.

We'll see about the marriage later.

I don't like anyone.

I just stayed at home.

Your Majesty, please save me!

What happened to Maihua?

Let's talk inside.

Don't stand in the yard and cry.

This is what happened after being beaten at the Ma family's house.

Or has something happened to the Ma family as well?

father

Ma Dacai said he wanted to divorce me.

What

Why should he divorce you?

Business at the shop is bad this year.

He said I was a jinx.

They even said that even if Third Brother gets rich, he won't help us.

The Zhao family never treated him as family.

Now the Ma family is living off their inheritance.

He said he divorced me.

Business will improve

The foolish and cunning Ma Dacai dares to...

The Ma family may not really want to divorce him.

Most likely, they came for the third son's money-making methods.

You did nothing wrong.

They can't just take a break.

Have your second brother and sister-in-law accompany you back to argue with the Ma family.

father

There's been too much work to do in the fields lately.

Da Yong and I really can't leave.

Why don't you and Mother go?

Elders' words carry more weight

What's wrong with working in the fields a day later?

Even her own sister is going to be divorced.

The older brother didn't stand up for him.

Mother, it would be more effective to send my third brother.

Let my second and third brothers go together.

My third brother used to love me the most.

I can't just watch myself get divorced.

wheat flowers

Don't count on the third brother.

He won't go.

I am his younger sister

She is my younger sister

But when Qian San Di gives you face

Have you ever given him a kind look?

If you can't use him, he's your own brother.

If you don't need it, just use it as a rag.

Dad has a baby who is still young.

You can't live with your stepmother!

Please help me.

I'm going to find the third brother.

Thank you, Dad.

Even if the Ma family is in poor condition, they still have a better foundation than the second branch of the family.

Zhao Dayong goes to the construction site during the day.

I still have to tend to the fields when I get back.

Providing education for three sons

We also need to provide for the elderly.

But fathers love their eldest sons and their daughters.

They'll go out of their way for anyone in need.

But he never truly considered the second wife's situation even once.

The head of the household is so exhausted

No one cares.

I really feel sorry for him.

Father agreed to go find Third Brother

That matter was already halfway done.

Don't go back to the Ma family's place tonight.

Just living at home

The second son's family killed a chicken.

Mix more refined grains into brown wheat

Ruxin's old room was also cleaned up for Maihua to sleep in.

I understand, Mother.

As long as my parents are still on my side

Even if the second sister-in-law was unhappy, she wouldn't dare to do anything.

Mom, what major events have happened at home recently?

Tell me everything.

There are many

Your second brother's sons all wanted to be adopted by the third brother.

Da Wen also wanted to push Jia Dong over there.

The children almost came to blows.

As a result, the third brother didn't take any.

They didn't want any of them.

Um

They directly found Xiaoyu a live-in son-in-law.

That is Xiao Lei

Third Brother really left the family business to his daughter.

It's not your second brother's three sons.

Now they're all being sent to school.

They argue all day long about who should read first.

Furthermore, the marriage proposals for Zhao Di and Ru Xin also went poorly.

Several households in the village refused to take it.

I just come back a few less times.

The Zhao family has turned the world upside down.

The eldest and second eldest brothers have both ended up like this.

Third Brother is getting better and better.

I really bet on the wrong person before.

My mother's eldest and second eldest brothers' lives are all in a mess now.

You have to help me.

If I really get divorced

Our family would be laughed to death by the villagers.

Don't worry, the Ma family dares to divorce you.

Mother fought them to the death.

My mother is all talk.

Mom, I'm tired from walking back and want to lie down for a while.

Mother, how long has it been since this quilt was washed?

How can you cover it up when it's all greasy?

The black stuff is your dad's cigarette ash.

If it's not dirty, I'll get you that Nu Skin bed.

grandfather

Call me Grandpa Zhao

You are not married yet.

It's hard to say what will happen in the future.

Old Master Zhao

Unruly things

Changing one's word on a whim

Is the third child home?

Uncle Zhao at home

Please come in, sir.

Where is your master?

This time

The master should be in the study.

The courtyard is spacious and tidy

servants came and went

Their food, clothing, and daily necessities are nothing like those of ordinary farmers.

They live even better than the village landlords.

This girl is the one who's bad.

Good news for the eldest and second eldest sons transiting through the country.

Xiao Liu went to the study to call my father.

Master, let's go sit in the main room.

Not much space

However, there were several servants

Buy so many people to eat for free

Having a little money makes you unable to manage your life

If Dad needs anything, why can't he have my second brother call me?

You have to make the trip yourself.

Could it be that you miss me?

Mom, pour Grandpa a bowl of water.

Dad, you seem to be in better health this year than in previous years.

It seems my second brother is taking good care of me.

Third brother, Dad's here today because he has something important to discuss with you.

What's the big deal?

Your sister is back.

The Ma family said they wanted to divorce her.

It scared me!

Father, you should go to the Ma family about this.

What do you want from me?

It wasn't me who told them to get a divorce.

You are his third brother

The girl was bullied by her husband's family.

You shouldn't have made the decision for her.

There are older brothers above him.

Above that are parents.

No matter how you calculate it, it's not my turn.

Your older brother lives in the county town.

You and the second brother go to the Ma family.

One second brother is enough.

I've been really busy lately.

The Master's blood cannot be delayed for even a day.

I have time to help Liu Shunzi build a house.

My younger sister was divorced but I don't have time.

Don't you feel cold-hearted?

I don't think so

Has Maihua had any contact with me over the years?

Her child celebrated a one-month birthday by performing a traditional Chinese hand-grasping ceremony.

When have you ever called me?

I haven't even stepped foot inside the Ma family's house in all these years.

Why is it that when something happens to her...

I have to rush to the front

Shunzi provided me with food and shelter during my most difficult time.

What's wrong with me helping him build a house?

Being a good person is a two-way street.

It's not about who's related by blood.

One should give one's whole life in vain.

Maihua was young and naive.

As the older brother, can't you be more responsible?

She's already a mother, yet she's still young.

When she got married

I carried heavy loads to earn her dowry.

I did everything I should and shouldn't have done.

Kindness and righteousness have been exhausted

Dad, please tell her.

Divorce or continue living together?

It's all about the Ma family.

Don't bother me anymore, I don't care.

How did you become so heartless?

He really treats me like his own brother.

They wouldn't have treated me like a rag a few years ago.

Now that I need it, I'm reminded of blood ties.

It's late

Few people from the Zhao family went.

The Ma family felt that Maihua was not valued in her maternal home.

Then you and Mother should both go.

Call him Big Brother and Second Brother again

Four people aren't enough to make a scene.

Why don't you go to the old house to see her?

You two used to have a great relationship.

Forced love is never sweet.

If you really ask me who my family dislikes the most...

Zhao Maihua ranked first

Why are you so petty?

As you wish

You also protect your own.

I also protect my own.

Who bullied my wife and daughter?

Even if the Heavenly King himself came, it wouldn't matter.

Even half a sentence is too much if we don't see eye to eye.

Dad, will you stay for dinner tonight?

I'll have the kitchen prepare two of your favorite dishes.

Let's have a drink.

Pretending

You can only recognize a few words in such a thick book?

I'm going back.

Really not leaving

Stay, Dad

Why don't you come back with me for a drink?

Your mother is also at home.

It's been a long time since we had a meal together.

What? My mom misses me.

Doesn't Dad feel any remorse for telling such lies?

How

Became a master

They just complain about the food at home.

I don't want to have a meal with my parents

What are you saying, Dad?

Your son has missed you all for a long time.

I'll keep you company with drinks tonight.

Dad, where are you going?

Your grandpa said your grandma misses me.

They insisted that I go back to the old house for a meal.

You three will eat by yourselves tonight.

Grandpa's move was really ruthless.

The loving father and mother wanted their son to come home for dinner.

Dad really couldn't not go.

Then Father, hurry up and go.

Don't keep the milk waiting too long

You heartless little devil

I don't even know how to save your dad.

Old Master Zhao, Uncle Zhao

Hurry up and go inside

Your aunt's dinner is almost ready.

Uncle, where are you going?

Returning to the old house

My mom misses me.

From then on, my dad would say every few days, "Your mother misses you."

Am I even going to live my life anymore?

Father and third brother also came.

Laugh now, you still expect me to help you dream?

Finally got to eat chicken

How did he have to happen to be there?

It was such a coincidence that my third brother came back.

Mother just had my second sister-in-law kill the chicken.

Come inside quickly, I'll make you some brown sugar water.

Third brother, please sit down.

I'm coming right away.

Forcing the third brother was useless.

You have to use a softer approach.

His parents miss him

Call him to eat

He can still refuse every time

Third brother, oh third brother

No matter how capable you are

In the end, he couldn't escape my grasp.

Father, second brother, third brother

You guys drink first.

I went to the kitchen to help my second sister-in-law cook.

How can someone who's about to be divorced be so happy?

Walking with a gust of wind

There wasn't a single scratch on his face.

The acting was so rough.

The Second Son Selling Flowers

What do you think?

How can I see it?

Use your eyes to see.

cough

I asked you what to do.

Are we really going to watch her get divorced by the Ma family?

Father, you and Mother are going to the Ma family.

I'll accompany you to see you off.

Couples often argue.

The wheat fields don't look like the sky is falling anymore.

Let her go back and talk to Da Cai first.

Big Tree, you said

father

Didn't you always say that studying is more important than anything else?

Can't anything be delayed?

I now learn from my teacher every day.

I really can't leave.

Your sister is barely surviving.

Then let's find our eldest brother.

My eldest and second eldest brothers are more capable than me.

I've been the most useless person since I was a child.

If you really let me go

They might even mess things up.

Now is not the time to be stubborn.

I'm telling the truth.

What if Maihua really was forced to her death by the Ma family?

That clan chief certainly wouldn't let the Ma family off the hook.

This skill of feigning ignorance is worth learning.

Father, second brother, third brother

Let's eat first.

My parents are doing well now.

Second brother took good care of you.

I can rest assured now.

How can it be like this every day?

Didn't you and Maihua both come back?

Killing chickens on purpose

Third brother, eat more.

How about a couple of drinks?

Is there any wine left at my mother's house?

No family, no money

Those two jars were a gift from the third brother.

It's already finished.

If Third Brother wants to drink

I'll go to your house to get it.

I haven't drunk alcohol for a long time.

Xiaoyu said drinking too much is bad for your health.

There was no wine left at my house.

Third Brother's chicken leg is so tender.

Mother's favorite food, for Mother

The third son knew best what his mother liked to eat.

I originally thought Third Brother was still the same as before.

A person who would be moved for half a day by a bowl of cold water

Who knew that today he wouldn't listen to either soft or hard tactics?

So what if you made a little money?

He used to fawn over me like a dog.

Now they're putting on airs.

There are a few silver coins

They've started pretending to pickle garlic too.

Father and Third Brother left so quickly

Have you reached an agreement?

Tomorrow, your mother and I

And your second brother went to the Ma family.

Only your third brother isn't going.

I am his younger sister

Such a big thing happened

He really doesn't care.

Your third brother has already separated from the family.

Separating from the family doesn't mean severing ties.

What exactly does "old man and third brother" mean?

We treated him to a delicious meal.

He doesn't even care about what girls do.

Parents

Do you know why the Ma family suddenly wants to divorce me?

We only visit my third brother's house during the Lunar New Year.

Third Brother wouldn't even let me in the door.

He even humiliated him in front of everyone.

The Zhao family looked down on him

He humiliated him so he took his anger out on me.

It turns out it was the third brother who caused this.

Let's go find him now.

Why should we not care about the mess he made?

daughter

I'm truly out of options.

That's enough.

Knowing that the third brother is ignoring you

He still insisted on moving forward.

He deserved to humiliate you.

Why should he have to listen to you?

How did you treat him back then?

He didn't know it himself.

If the third son is still poor

You'll keep calling me "Third Brother"

I'll put a chicken leg on his plate.

Zhao Maihua, don't think you're the only one in the world who's good at scheming.

Everyone else is a fool.

Old man, why are you taking the third son's side?

I'm not helping him.

I'm stating the facts.

In the past, wheat flowers didn't consider big trees as their brothers.

Now that they're rich, they want to get close to them.

There's no such thing as a free lunch.

Leave a way out for others

You didn't leave yourself any way out back then.

Now they have to bear the bitter consequences themselves.

There's nowhere for me to stay in this house anymore.

Let me be laid off

Let me die outside.

Don't go, wheat flowers.

Old man, what have you done to the child?

Ask your dear daughter

Is she really going to be divorced?

She lied to us.

They just wanted to lure the third son to the Ma family.

Get something out of him

It's impossible that Maihua would lie to her parents about something like this.

Wheat Flower, say something!

father

I was wrong

The Ma family really didn't intend to divorce me.

But my life is really hard.

It's really tough.

Business is getting worse and worse

They insult me ​​every day, saying I have a rich third brother.

But they didn't get any benefit.

I only wanted to do it because I had no other choice.

You guys help me pressure Third Brother once.

You even lied to your parents.

What can I still trust you about in the future?

Dad, I really know I was wrong.

Let's go back to the Ma family tomorrow.

In the future, visit your parents' home less often.

How could you even lie to your parents?

Do you know us?

I've been so worried about you these past few days.

Mother, I was wrong

I really can't.

The Ma family's business is bad.

I did everything, big and small, at the stall.

Even so, they still nitpick and say I'm useless every day.

So you lied to your whole family.

He even tried to trick his third brother into selling flowers at Ma Jia Zhao's place.

You've been kicked in the head by a donkey.

They said

If we can't find a way for Third Brother to make money

Just tell me not to go back.

I really had a hard time living with the Ma family.

My poor wheat flower!

Old man, we can't just abandon her!

If you want to manage it, manage it yourself.

Maihua's father is getting old

He won't live for many more years.

You must be truly filial.

It's enough if they come back to visit us during holidays and festivals.

I can't help.

father

Let's go back tomorrow.

Live well with Da Cai

Stop making a fuss.

Finally, I can move back.

Thank you so much, Uncle Zhao, for taking care of me these past few days.

Finally, no one's taking my food!

Why don't you come over for meals every day?

Cooking for one person is too rough

Anyway, we're close by

You can do your homework in your own room.

So, besides not sleeping at my house at night...

Everything else remains unchanged.

Come on, come on, let's eat!

Is it too lonely to live alone?

Should we buy a servant?

I don't need to go to your house at mealtimes every day.

I read books with my teacher this morning.

Shengju Works

I don't spend much time at home.

Let's buy a dog then.

If someone trespasses, unleash the dogs.

Okay, I'll pick a fierce one.

Here are 50 taels.

You stay by my side

I still have a few ounces left.

The money you gave me before hasn't been touched much.

You always need to add things when you have a kitchen.

I can cook for myself if I'm hungry at night.

Don't come to my house when it snows heavily in winter.

To avoid getting your shoes and socks completely wet

Also winter blankets and thick clothes

My mother said she'll have someone make it and send it to you later.

good

I've memorized them all.

Those people from the Xiao family might still tell you to ignore them.

Don't worry, they won't get the better of them.

I used to live alone for so long

I haven't felt lonely for many years.

How many days did the Zhao family stay?

I'm not used to it.

As the head of the household, do you feel bad that Xiao Lei moved out?

The house is much quieter.

I didn't realize that none of our family members were missing.

The child lives alone.

I'm always worried that he's not eating well.

He has a small courtyard by himself.

The daughter also gave 50 taels.

Much better off than when I was young

Make me a few more new outfits when you have time.

I need to dress smartly when I go to the prefectural city.

After Chunmiao got engaged, she didn't often play with Lihua.

But she still goes out all day long.

I'll go to the prefectural city later and see if I can find a female tutor.

Otherwise he'll become increasingly wild.

Wenjing used to be quiet because she was scolded and worked hard every day.

Not even enough to eat

Where do I have the energy to play?

Uncle, take a look!

Can it be cut if it's this big?

Can the light rain be collected?

That's enough.

Go and inform the village chief

Kuroko and his gang

This year, we'll follow the same old rules.

Okay

Who knows if it will still be available next year?

Earn money one year at a time.

Work yourself to death if you can't work yourself to death.

Home Backup Gift

Let's go to your parents' house

Why in such a hurry?

Shunzi and his friends will go to collect river gourds tonight.

I need to inform my father-in-law immediately.

Otherwise, everyone else would have already started work.

Our dad doesn't know yet.

How much less money will I earn?

What to do after my daughter gets back this year?

The Master's family still lives here.

The village is keeping an eye on it every day.

Even bags are hard to wrap.

Put it away first.

Oh right, I'll go call Xiao Lei.

Let him pick them up too.

My daughter is biased towards outsiders.

Even after getting rich, she still doesn't forget her man.

The harvest of walnut gourds has begun this year.

Do you want to pick it up?

Of course, you can find these things everywhere.

Safer than hunting in the mountains

And make more money

Even if you pick it up, I'll still charge you the same amount of money.

No settlement required

Put them all with you.

The 50 taels you gave me before are still untouched.

I'll ask you for more money if I don't have any.

It's safe to leave it here.

Um

father

River gourds can be picked now.

This year, we'll still take as much as we can get.

They can really collect it.

However, the old sow village is keeping a close eye on things this year.

They won't deliver to my house.

Delivered directly to the county town

No. 8, Maoer Hutong

One house per family

Our house is the first room in the west wing.

Leave the basket and the goods there.

Bring it back next time

Okay, okay, we'll definitely find more this year than last year.

Our family has learned how to drive a mule cart.

I'm also planning to rent a few cars.

We can get started tonight.

Dad, let's go back first.

You should make arrangements quickly too.

Making money is the most important thing

Um

Making money is the most important thing

Hurry up

We must go out before dawn.

Old Man Qian and his grandson are few in number

Everyone recently

Let them have the easiest parts.

Thank you everyone.

Those few new houses at the end of the village

Why are only children and housekeepers left?

All the adults have disappeared.

These people must have gone out and made a fortune.

Why

We have to keep a close eye on this no matter what.

Let's see what they're doing.

Xiao Lei, the head of the household, has also disappeared.

Zhao Dashu must have taken him along to make money too.

Wait for him to come back

Let him build us a set

A large mansion like the Zhao family's

Is that too much to ask?

Other things are optional

The new house must be given

Dad, I thought about it last night.

River gourds are increasing

We simply can't make braised pork in the village.

What to do then?

We can't keep taking the bus into the county town every day, can we?

Our whole family will move to the county town for a while.

Pear blossoms too

The harvested gourds were first cooked.

We'll peel it slowly afterwards.

Once this wave ends

We still need to go to the prefectural city to pick them up.

He won't be back for at least a few months.

The teacher's tuition fees weren't paid for nothing over several months.

The amount of silver they were fighting over with He Hulu

This is nothing.

We go in and out of the county town every day.

My address will be discovered sooner or later.

Today I left

There might be someone guarding our doorstep tomorrow.

Xiaoyu is right.

Making money is the most important thing

Dad, let's go for a few months.

What to do with the land?

I almost forgot

Miss, rest assured

The weeds that needed to be removed have been removed.

Recently, I've mainly been watching over its growth.

During the autumn harvest, the villagers will hire experienced hands to help with the harvest.

Don't sell the grain harvested this year.

Keep them all

Um

Our family can't possibly finish all of this.

Store uneaten food in the granary

The warehouse isn't that big now.

That room

Next year, our family will really buy more.

They built a special granary.

Wow

My daughter is really preparing to become a housewife.

I am a local housewife

My father is a landlord.

Then this land must be bought.

You two bought land just so you could hear others call you "Master".

Building up a family fortune is also a serious matter.

By the way, the sheep farmer from the neighboring village came by a couple of days ago.

They said their ewes have been producing a lot of milk lately.

Do you accept fresh goat milk?

That stuff has a very strong, pungent smell.

Why would I collect it?

Fresh goat milk

yes

Every day

He said there are some for the time being.

No need for now, just remember that family's name.

You want to drink

I haven't decided yet.

Goat milk has many uses.

We've been away for several months

Take good care of the house.

Prepare plenty of firewood for winter

Purchase enough grain after autumn harvest

The vegetables are also pickled.

I also often go to visit Xiao Lei.

Don't let him gather firewood himself.

The master really doesn't serve under any petty person.

The fewer people, the safer.

You go too

We've been staying in the county town for the past few days.

That would be even better, as the villagers wouldn't be able to find you even if they wanted to.

The village chief left before dawn.

We were the last ones.

Did you send the one you picked up last night?

He sent it to his house in the county town overnight.

The more diligent everyone

The more I collect

This is the real way to make money while lying down.

Let's go shopping, sis!

I haven't had time to shop lately

I'll let you buy it when I go to the prefectural city in a while.

good

Dad, let's go find a restaurant and make a reservation.

Three meals a day delivered to your door

Saves time cooking and washing dishes

Book 10 days in advance

Have the shop buy breakfast for you.

Three dishes and one soup for lunch and dinner

A balanced diet of meat and vegetables

Working is already tiring enough

We can no longer skimp on food.

Hahaha

Dad wasn't here to play around after all.

Rest when your hand hurts.

Dad won't force you to do chores

When will my daughter finish wrapping these?

If you don't mind having too much money

Don't complain about having too much work.

That's right, it's just sitting and working.

Not exposed to the sun or rain

Xiaoyu, can you leave some for us to eat at noon?

Haven't eaten in a long time

I kind of thought about it.

become

ah

If my daughter could build another stage in the yard...

Let people sing songs on it

We listened and peeled away

That's what I call comfortable.

Even the servants in the house dared not be summoned.

You still want to hire an opera troupe?

Get to work quickly

It smells even better than meat.

I'll make you spicy stuffed gourd another day.

It's settled.

Dad, shall we eat this good tomorrow too?

I recently moved to the county town

I eat like this every day

Then I can broadcast for another six months.

Uncle Uncle

They're here again so soon.

so much

At first there were many goods in the muddy ground

I only pick the big ones.

Let the smaller one rest a while longer.

Today, the whole family only ate a few bites of dry food.

It basically didn't stop.

Hey hey

Village chief, you're amazing!

It's all thanks to you.

This is different from directly from the mud.

Picking up silver makes no difference

Four cars

Okay, we'll pick them up separately.

One person, one car

It's better to keep a low profile.

The Yue family not only learned how to catch a carriage in advance

They even thought of the saying "a tall tree catches the wind".

The old man still needs you.

You're not bad either.

I'm nowhere near as good as you.

Okay, okay

Stop praising each other and start giving your names!

That's all for the first day.

Silver can make the devil turn the millstone.

They were all on fire!

Dad, Lao San, and several other families from the village committee have all disappeared.

The villagers all say they went out to earn money.

Did they go out?

There are no children and housekeepers left at home.

I know nothing

The ways to make money are, of course, kept very secret.

You know about the second child too.

I can't control my third child now.

I originally wanted my father to go and investigate again.

But thinking back on all the setbacks I've encountered over the years...

He could only swallow his words.

Things will get better eventually.

With such heavy rain, you still went out into the field.

If this leak can't be plugged...

All the water was poured in.

This year's harvest was generally average.

If this area gets even worse, will it even let people live?

Child fee

Our parents eat

They're counting on this little bit of land

The money the third brother earned after going out for a few days

It's more than how many years we've farmed.

He earned his

This land belongs to us.

We must hold on to even the smallest amount.

The old man first lifted these baskets onto the car.

The road is too slippery, don't try to be brave.

It won't kill you if you pour some water on it.

It would be a loss if our two old bones got sick.

Get in the car and change your clothes first.

right

Yes, yes

Are the children still outside?

The children definitely know how to dodge cars.

They're not stupid.

Luckily I rented a car this year

We need to come out on our legs, just like last year.

This rain is sure to make people sick.

God really knows how to pick his timing.

Can't we rest before we go down?

You even consulted with God about how beautiful you are.

Head of household

My parents are still out there, and the roads are slippery.

I don't know if the dry rations are enough.

Having a mule cart this year is better than last year.

Not getting wet

The muddy road needs to be dried in the sun for a few days.

Such heavy rain

Not only is the road difficult to travel

How

Autumn harvest is approaching

crops

The plants in the ground are different from the river gourds.

We won't pick river gourds today.

Can I still pick it up tomorrow?

The grain really got ruined by the water.

A year's worth of effort gone.

Making money can make people live a good life

But food is the real safety net, Dad.

Um

Once this busy period is over

Let's go buy land

Real Buy

If you really want to buy one, you should choose one with good drainage.

There will be more land in the future

We have to repair the ditches ourselves.

Listen to you

Your second uncle introduced you to people from two villages outside the village.

The family has about 20 mu of land

But once you get inside, you have to get out of bed and do housework.

Mother, I've made up my mind.

I went to Mr. Qian's house

You really agree to be my concubine?

Well, but I need to make this clear first.

I am the daughter of a scholar

Unlike women bought with a few taels of silver.

Good dad goes to talk

Mr. Qian has long had his eye on you.

As long as you're willing to come in.

He will never treat you unfairly.

Once the reputation of the scholar's family selling their daughter as a concubine spread...

Zhao Dawen's dignity was completely gone.

For 200 taels

Is it worth it?

The bride price also needs to be increased.

Since he likes me

We must show sincerity.

More

Your two younger brothers will take the imperial examinations and get married in the future.

Money is needed everywhere

Xiaoyu finds a hunter who comes to her home.

Not a single penny of betrothal money

I still have to pay out of pocket

I'm worth at least several hundred taels.

I want to live a life of luxury in the Qian family.

It's better than marrying a peasant.

Ruxin, have you thought this through?

The concubine entered the house

Even oneself is not entirely one's own

I've thought it through.

It's better to die rich than to live a life of poverty.

The child's mother, Ruxin, herself was willing.

What are you still stopping me for?

That's good for her.

It's a win-win situation for our family too.

Zhao Dawen is a shameless bastard.

He can even enjoy chewing on his daughter so much.

My wife, Ruxin, is different from the concubines you took before.

She is the daughter of a scholar.

Talented and well-mannered

Debating identity

Being your legal wife wouldn't be an insult to you.

That's why

I'm only willing to pay 200 taels.

Ask around the whole county

Who spends so much money on taking a concubine?

Um

Ru Xin hopes to add more

It also serves to highlight one's status.

Furthermore, she cannot be treated the same as ordinary concubines after entering the household.

It would be best to treat her as a secondary wife.

A concubine is not suitable

If she is sensible

I can make her my concubine.

Her status was naturally higher than that of the other concubines.

How about I add another 50 taels, making it 250 taels?

250 This old man is deliberately making fun of me.

Does Zhao Xiucai think this number is appropriate?

Achievements depend on Mr. Qian

Hoping that after Ru Xin enters the family

Can you treat her well?

As long as you are sensible

I will naturally cherish her.

The money is in hand

I can't feel happy at all.

Both parties have reached an agreement.

The day after tomorrow, a sedan chair will be sent to fetch Ruxin to the mansion.

No order placed

No wedding banquet

The concubine only rode in a small sedan chair.

Enter through the back door

How did the talks go?

How much dowry did the father receive?

230 taels

It's already agreed

I'll pick you up the day after tomorrow.

So fast

Mr. Qian couldn't wait

He agreed.

You are a favored concubine as soon as you enter the door.

Besides the legal wife, you are the greatest.

That shows he was sincere.

remember

Neither Master Qian nor his wife can be offended.

Especially Mrs. Zheng

She is the one who truly rules the inner quarters.

I understand, Mother.

Since the master likes me so much

My wife will be wary of me sooner or later.

As long as I am favored

I refuse to believe I can keep pressing down on her.

Give me the silver

Ruxin will be arriving tomorrow.

I need to buy her clothes and jewelry.

Buying one outfit is enough

The Qian family has nothing.

Jiaxiang's next appearance

Jia Dong also needs to study

I still need to buy a house and get married.

Where you don't spend money

Zhao Dawen, you're a beast!

Are you sick?

What's wrong with you so early in the morning?

Ruxin's mother will take you to buy a new dress.

I should dress presentably when I visit the Qian family tomorrow.

I want silk.

Buy another set of jewelry

The two sons will study, take the imperial examinations, and get married in the future.

Everything costs money

Mr. Qian said he would prepare jewelry for you.

Let's buy a set of clothes first.

The Qian family's things are better.

Buying too much is a waste

Then let's buy one first.

I just hope my daughter will be safe after entering the Qian family.

Hey, isn't this Wang's daughter?

Come buy clothes!

It's been a long time since I've seen Sister Ruxin.

How are you

We used to be as close as sisters.

The Zhao family turned against each other swiftly after their downfall.

Aunties, have you come to the wrong place?

The coarse cloth shop across the street would be more suitable for you.

You little brat

What nonsense are you talking about?

Even if your Aunt Wang can't afford it

We can't even come in to take a look.

In the past, I would have yelled back long ago.

But I need to go to the Qian family tomorrow.

I need to avoid trouble.

Mother, let's go.

Ruxin, you did a great job today.

Remember this when you're at the Qian family's house.

If you can tolerate it, then tolerate it.

Don't always stand out.

The nail that sticks out gets hammered down.

The most conspicuous people are often the most unlucky.

Mother, I know

Once I've established myself in the Qian family...

I will definitely let the Wu family know.

Who is the real joke?

Mother's white flour is so delicious

Last year I could eat at every meal

Now it has become a rare delicacy.

Even after Ruxin marries into the Qian family, she still needs to think about her maternal family.

Ka-keung and Ka-tung will both take the imperial examinations in the future.

They're better.

You only have a strong backing in the Qian family.

No one will dare to look down on you.

Mother, don't worry, there are really difficulties at home.

The younger brother warlock was not enough

I will definitely help if I can.

Go get me two ounces of liquor from home.

Have a drink today too.

My daughter is going to be a concubine tomorrow.

What is there for her to be happy about?

Jiadong, go buy it.

Why

After this meal

The family wants to sit together like this again

I don't know when it will be possible to wait.

After tomorrow

I won't have to live this poor life anymore.

When will the Qian family come to pick up my mother?

It is said that today

The exact time was not mentioned.

Today you enter the Qian family

Father naturally has to be there

If you need anything in the future, remember to have someone send a letter back.

Dad's family is really in trouble

You can also come to the Qian residence to find me.

I will never forget you

We don't need these needles anymore.

Don't worry about Mom; just give it to whoever can wear it from now on.

The Qian family has nothing.

I brought all this junk in.

It's shameful.

After entering, pay respects to Master Qian.

We should show even greater respect to Madam Zheng.

That's not my home.

Be patient in everything

I understand, Mother.

That's it.

You are a concubine

Perhaps it was because Madam Zheng arranged for fewer [items/items]

Waiting for you to come in

Mr. Qian will certainly not treat you unfairly.

Ruxin's life was probably all arranged by the madam.

Once you're inside, whatever you do, don't confront her directly.

It was indeed that old woman who deliberately pressed down on me.

Giving someone a hard time before even meeting them

Should I get in the sedan chair or not?

It was almost dark.

If the legal wife remarries

Who would urge someone like that?

Hurry up and don't be late!

Ruxin's daughter

This must be a sedan chair used for taking a concubine.

Zhao Xiucai's daughter

Oh dear, such a fine scholar's daughter being sent to be a concubine.

It seems the family is truly facing insurmountable difficulties.

Perhaps there are some difficulties.

Don't rub salt into someone's wound.

Should I move to a different place?

Babies, thank you all for liking to dress up as a peasant girl.

Raising kids and farming is incredibly fun and exciting!

The next season is currently in rapid production.

More exciting things to come!

Remember to click to reserve and add to your favorites!

Aunt Zhao, get out of the sedan chair.

Please come with me to pay our respects to the lady and serve her tea.

Learn the rules of the university

Instead of going to see the master first

The wife is in charge of the inner quarters.

You just walked in

Naturally, the lady should be bowed to first.

He had to kneel before the lady.

Daily greetings at dawn and dusk

Do not leave the residence without permission.

Do not contradict the mistress

Do not overstep your authority.

Why are there so many ridiculous rules for being a concubine?

You are Zhao Xiucai's daughter.

It was the old lady

My father was a scholar.

Another clueless person has arrived.

Once you enter the Qian family, serve the master well.

Staying in the inner quarters and keeping to one's own good

If you understand the rules

The Qian family will not treat you unfairly.

If one harbors malicious intentions

Or coveting something that doesn't belong to them.

The Qian family won't tolerate you either.

Ruxin will surely be content.

Serve the master well

Go down, the two maids behind you will serve you from now on.

If needed, have them carry you up.

I thought I would be harassed on the spot.

To everyone's surprise, Madam Qian did not punish him by making him kneel.

There was no intention to humiliate

They also gave him a courtyard and two maids.

It seems she wouldn't dare to really do anything to me.

The old man likes me

She has to consider things to some extent.

Auntie, this will be your courtyard from now on.

Please take a shower and change your clothes first.

The master will come over when he's done with his work.

These will be my use from now on.

yes

It has its own yard

There are servants and a small kitchen

I don't have to live in that run-down rental room anymore.

The servant girl looked at

This girl doesn't seem too calculating.

Don't jump to conclusions about whether someone is cunning or not.

From the moment she entered the door until she left...

His eyes were fixed on the things inside the room.

Greed cannot be hidden

Let people see some

There are many people in the back courtyard.

We can't afford to cause any more trouble.

yes

Dad was right after all.

Entering the Qian family is about enjoying a life of luxury.

The concubine and the master have arrived.

It's time to change.

Mother said all men are pretty much the same after blowing out the lamp.

As long as I act gentle and dependent

Older men are more likely to be caring.

The most important thing is to get pregnant as soon as possible.

Having children

It was only then that I truly gained a foothold in the Qian family.

Are you satisfied with this courtyard, Ruxin?

Many thanks, sir.

If you're not satisfied, rearrange it.

Oh, and I also prepared something for you.

All 6 sets are mine, I'm rich!

How come he's just like his father?

He couldn't move when he saw money.

Put it away first

A moment of spring night is worth a thousand pieces of gold

Don't waste your time on jewelry.

This is more than just a little bigger than my dad.

He's almost as old as my grandpa!

Why do you dislike me?

It's just that the old man looks somewhat familiar.

I saw you once at the county magistrate's birthday banquet.

Back then you were still the daughter of a scholar.

I never imagined I'd be able to bring you into my home one day.

Now he eats his food and lives his house

You absolutely mustn't anger him on the first night.

My dear husband, how is Ru Xin doing these days?

Mr. Qian's age

Will she be able to handle it?

They must be living a life of luxury and comfort.

Mr. Qian was only about ten years older than me.

Just looks old

He's younger than his dad.

Of course I could still scam my own daughter.

Everything else can be fought for slowly.

Children must come first

You have to have one no matter what.

How could Xiao Lei pick up so much all by himself?

He hunted from a young age

Fast legs and strong

It's normal to pick up a lot

Yesterday, Dad said Mom caught a cold.

I don't know if it's better or not.

I've taken all the medicine.

I can still bend down and pick them up for another day.

It's definitely nothing serious.

He is really seriously ill

How can it hold up?

Mother waits for Master to come again

You ask me yourself

The old man wasn't indifferent to Grandma's feelings, so he didn't stop her.

This indicates the illness is not serious.

Dad, shall we go back to the village for Mid-Autumn Festival?

I should go back and visit my family while I'm at it.

That requires advance preparation.

Those people in the village have been watching us for so long

Go back for Mid-Autumn Festival

Someone is definitely trying to follow them.

We must be careful when we leave.

Is it really that exaggerated?

have

The less they know

The more they wanted to know

First day leaving the village

Don't rush to pick them up.

Dedicated to going around remote areas

Anyone who follows will soon find out.

What if they also get a car and follow?

Then let's keep going around.

Until you get rid of it

Sigh, making money has to be like stealing.

Why don't we just make it public?

After being made public

The walnut sauce can still be sold at its current price.

Others know it's something that can be found anywhere in the mud.

Who is willing to pay a high price?

Besides, regular sauce can only be kept for a little over a month.

But we can supply goods all year round.

These things are all inexplicable.

Continue to hide

besides

Let's not make our own mooncakes this year.

Do you think we still have time?

Too

Returning to the village for Mid-Autumn Festival

Be extra cautious when going out.

Who discovered someone followed

Better not to do it that day

The place must not be exposed.

Don't worry, we will be careful.

Why don't several families leave the village on the same day?

Each family went in a different direction.

The villagers really wanted to follow

You also have to choose who to follow first.

We specialize in taking the detours

You can tell at a glance that someone is behind you.

This method is good.

It still has to be the village chief.

I'll go back and tell the other companies.

Dad, your village isn't that eye-catching.

We also need to be careful.

A girl from a certain family married into the village of Old Sows.

When you go back to your parents' home, say one more thing

There's still a possibility that someone is watching you.

I know about this.

Uncle, don't worry

Dad certainly won't cut off everyone's source of income.

Don't rush tonight.

Stay overnight and leave tomorrow morning

What brings you here today, Scholar Zhao?

My family misses their daughter.

Mid-Autumn Festival is almost here.

Her grandparents also thought about it.

I wonder if we could go into the mansion to see Ruxin?

Or let her go home for a meal.

snort

Zhao Xiucai

Don't you understand what a concubine is?

She is now my concubine in the Qian family.

Her home and her family

From now on, it will all belong to the Qian family.

When you charged me 250 taels

This family bond has already been bought off.

But she is, after all, my daughter.

Since you can't bear to part with it

Why did you sell it back then?

Don't think I don't know what you're up to.

250 taels is still not enough

I want to get more money from him.

The jewelry and money I gave him all belonged to the Qian family.

It's not for subsidizing your Zhao family.

I just wanted to see the child.

She was a concubine, not a wife.

Don't try to use grandparents to get information from her anymore.

It sounds ridiculous

Old Chen saw the guest off.

Please, Scholar Zhao.

He will come again later

No need to report

Please leave immediately.

Originally thought that after her daughter entered the Qian family

She also continuously supports her family.

Now this road is completely cut off.

Have you seen Nina Wang?

Is she doing well?

Did Mr. Qian say whether he could come back for the Mid-Autumn Festival?

When can I go see her?

It's all because you keep mentioning my daughter to me every day.

They were forcing me to go to the Qian family.

What's wrong with me?

As a mother, I want to see if my daughter has done anything wrong.

Zhao Dawen

Don't let go, Jia Dong, come quickly!

cough cough cough

You want to kill me

I just now

You really tried to strangle me just now.

Do you know how Old Man Qian humiliated me today?

He said that Nina Wang was already a member of the Qian family.

Once we've taken the money, we'll have nothing to do with him anymore.

From now on, they won't even be allowed to enter the Qian residence.

Why won't we see Ruxin?

Just because we took his money

Go and beg him again.

See once a month

Once every two months is fine too.

We don't want money.

Just look at the children

Don't think about it.

From now on, they won't be able to enter the Qian family's house.

It was my fault that I harmed my daughter.

It was our greed for money that ruined her.

This is the kind of life I should be living.

Dad, go check out the clothing store.

When returning to the village for the Mid-Autumn Festival, one should dress decently.

Hahaha, let's go!

Buy two outfits for your mother and Pear Blossom.

Dad also bought two sets.

We have more clothes at home than we can wear, why buy more?

Isn't the point of making money to live a good life?

Can wear and eat

Only then will the money not have been earned in vain.

How can we possibly finish eating so much?

It won't break.

Send more to your parents

A set of gifts was also prepared at the old house according to custom.

Why

Now our family is rich

The flowers shouldn't be skimped on.

Waaaaah

The Mid-Autumn Festival tomorrow is the time for the head of the household.

Should we go back to the village?

You have to reply if you don't reply

Sooner or later, my parents will come to the county town.

What about Ruxin?

A perfectly healthy person is gone.

How long can this be kept secret?

Just say he got married.

No notification of engagement

No notification of marriage

Grandpa and Grandma didn't know either

Do you think your parents are fools?

So what do you suggest we do?

To tell the truth

You want my dad to beat me to death?

The truth will out.

Can the Mid-Autumn Festival be celebrated behind the Winter Solstice and the Lunar New Year?

You'll know eventually

They really wait until they hear it from someone else.

They'll only hate you more for lying to them.

or

We're not going back.

Will you hide forever?

Village chief, you are the village chief of the whole village.

We can't just think about making money for ourselves and a few others.

You eat meat

Even just leaving us a little soup would be nice.

We also want to send our children to school.

build blue brick houses

You bring one

The whole village can become rich

Your face also shines.

It's not that I don't want to bring it.

This is something we really can't do carelessly.

We all keep our mouths shut

You still don't trust me

When we were picking bamboo shoots

Do you also guarantee the results like this?

Within a day, everyone in the surrounding villages knew that someone was buying bamboo shoots.

Will anyone still buy it the following year?

How did Shunzi lose his job?

You all know

This business

If he lets it slip again

It wasn't just me who lost my job.

It's the livelihood of several families.

But we guarantee

No guarantee required

If I could have brought it, I would have done so already.

You can't bring it.

Village chief, we're not jealous.

Food prices are high during years of famine

The kids have all lost weight from hunger.

Who wouldn't want to earn a few more coins?

I know it's precisely because everyone is having a hard time

I dare not gamble with the livelihood I already have.

Let one in today.

Tomorrow her brothers and relatives will all come to ask.

Whom am I stopping?

There's really no way.

Are there other ways to make money?

I'll be the first to tell everyone.

This really won't work.

No need to say anything more

That's all

Are you feeling heartbroken, the head of the household?

There's nothing I can do about it.

The plan to combine gourds must not fall through.

Something really went wrong.

I'm sorry to the big tree.

I'm also sorry to Shunzi and the others.

I don't want to be the village chief anymore.

I'm really quitting.

Every day is not about mediating disputes

It means cleaning up other people's messes.

Now I earn a few coins myself.

And you'll be accused of only caring about yourself.

Rather than being criticized behind one's back

Better to let go

From now on, we'll follow the big tree and do our own work.

If you don't want to do it, then don't.

Whoever wants to take it can take it.

Daughter's Winter Solstice Offering to Her Son

Can you enter the ancestral hall?

It should be possible.

From now on, I'll be half your son.

I can't let Xiao Lei go in for me.

I'm afraid those old-fashioned people will nag that women can't run the household.

Let's greet Grandpa first.

He is the clan chief

His nod is the most effective.

Your great-grandfather definitely favored your uncle back then.

He was the one who first brought up the matter of dividing the family property.

Shouldn't we thank him even more?

Without his help

How could we possibly separate from the old house so quickly?

Hahaha

You're only realizing this now?

snort

Father has no eternal enemies.

Only the interests of the bond

What does that mean?

My great-grandfather used to have a crush on my uncle.

It's because my uncle was a scholar.

I think he can bring honor to the Zhao family.

Back then, we had nothing but work.

Who will help us?

My uncle is getting worse and worse off now.

It's difficult to even pass the imperial examination.

Our family is getting better and better.

If you really let Grandpa choose between Uncle and us...

Who do you think he would choose next?

Daughter, how did you even get into this brain?

Dad is not bad either

You manage everything inside and outside the house. Without you...

This house has been in complete chaos for ages.

So this is how important Dad is.

Very important

Ah, the third brother is back.

Where have you been lately?

wander around

Big Tree and Light Rain

The second child takes a stool.

It's been a long time since I've seen you

Grandma still misses you guys.

Grandma suddenly became so kind

Something must have happened.

Why

Is it sweet?

Too sweet

After these two bowls

The brown sugar we had saved at home was reduced by half.

Normally, I wouldn't even let my child have an extra sip.

The third brother acted like money was no object as soon as he got back.

Drink more if it's sweet.

I'll make you some more milk after you finish drinking it.

Come back tomorrow at noon and let's have lunch together.

good

Daughter

Is something wrong with your grandfather and your second uncle?

What's wrong?

Your grandpa didn't scheme against me today.

Your second uncle didn't even ask how much money he made.

They didn't even mention getting rich.

They're so unlike them.

It's possible that after all this effort, nothing has been gained.

Finally gave up

Your grandma is quite enthusiastic.

Maybe my brain suddenly went blank.

Grandma really went all out today.

Sugar is like it's free.

It is too sweet

Sweet is not good

Sweetness should be in moderation.

ah

What's wrong?

yes

How could I have forgotten this?

Daughter

Dad came home

Don't we still need to go to Grandpa's house?

Go later

What happened?

Making money is a big deal

Then hurry up

The sheep farmer I mentioned earlier

Can it still be found?

able

Go buy a can of freshly squeezed goat milk.

Daughter, this stuff really smells awful.

Boil it and give it to the pear blossoms to drink.

Not to drink directly

Are you going to boil so many medicines?

The tea flavor is not strong.

The milk will cover it all up in a moment.

It smells so good

It's not over yet.

This tastes good.

Failed

A bit mountain

It's done

Adding goat milk to tea

Try it

Will it give me diarrhea?

Dad, do you want some or not?

Drink, drink, drink

How about it?

Give Dad some more.

The tea was originally a little bitter.

Goat milk has a strong, muttony smell.

When mixed together, they all become bland.

Don't add too much sugar.

What's this called?

Sweet milk tea

Sweet milk tea is delicious

Why did you make another one when the previous one was fine?

Just now I could only drink

There's a difference.

Of course, too much tea is bitter.

Too much milk makes it smelly

Too much sugar makes it cloying.

It still doesn't work.

this

It's about the same as before.

From now on, every pot must be roughly the same.

From now on, we won't rely on grabbing with our hands.

A bucket of tea

The number of buckets of water, the number of buckets of milk, and the amount of sugar are all fixed.

Why

What I made today tastes good.

Mom's cooking will taste bad tomorrow.

Will the guests come again?

Get a taste

right

What does it matter?

How much is a bowl?

It's just tea, sugar, and goat milk.

That's why we need to calculate it.

How much does tea cost?

How much does sugar cost?

How many bowls can one can of goat milk make?

Add firewood to the artificial cup

Just sell it for a higher price.

What if no one drinks it if it's too expensive?

That'll be cheaper.

What if you get a cheap deal but work for nothing?

Then you should calculate it.

father

Um

You mentioned those girls in the county town

If you can hold something in your hand while shopping in winter

A bowl of hot and sweet things

Will you buy?

Even I, a grown man, want to drink.

That's settled.

Opening another shop

Second son

Go to the county town to see your older brother tomorrow.

Dad, I really don't have time.

Autumn harvest is coming soon

The fields are being well tended now

You can harvest a few more pounds in the fall.

Three children in the family are in school

I dare not delay even for a day.

You all have your own things to do now.

I'm a father that no one can boss around.

My older brother has lived in the county town for so many years.

It's definitely okay.

If something were really wrong, I would have sent someone to tell you already.

Don't be angry, that's how it is after a separation.

The eldest brother can't be relied on.

The second son will take care of us in our old age.

Don't push too hard

The third brother is rich, so you can't afford to offend him.

Let's take care of ourselves.

You see things clearly now?

I don't understand what else can I do?

When people get old, they need someone to take care of them.

Oh, big tree!

It's been a while since we last saw each other.

Haha, our Xiaoyu is getting more and more beautiful!

Haha, this outfit is so beautiful!

All the girls in the village envy you.

Hahaha

Uncle, you must remember this.

You are a member of the Zhao family.

We are the ones with the same ancestry and roots.

Sure enough, after all that trouble, it all came down to this.

They dislike me for making money by bringing aliens.

Not a single member of the Zhao family

Not a single member of the Zhao family

My uncle always knew that his surname was Zhao.

It's good to know

By the way, where have you guys been lately?

Will I go out after the holiday?

I have to go out again.

Preparing to go to the prefectural city

Then went to the prefectural city

When will you come back?

Not decided yet

Uncle/Grandpa reminds you

There are quite a few people in the village who want to know what you do.

Your families have been too conspicuous lately.

Someone is already watching.

Be careful when you go out

Thank you, Uncle.

I have nothing to fear if I am upright.

They can watch if they want.

Our little Yu is so lucky

Your dad loves you so much

Which girl in the village can compare?

I heard you can even help your dad with his business now, you're really capable.

Xiaoyu, what kind of business has your dad taught you to do?

Talk to your aunt

It also broadened our horizons.

What business knowledge do I, a mere young girl, possess?

It's all just my aunt's flattery.

Your house will all be yours from now on.

Wouldn't a big tree teach you?

I just help my dad send things and run errands.

There's really nothing else.

Didn't this girl used to say she was stupid?

How can someone's mind be as slippery as an eel?

Xiaoyu, we should head back now.

Grandma and Aunts

We'll come another day.

Why the rush?

Stay for dinner

Let your dad and your great-grandfather have a couple of drinks.

If that doesn't work, I promise my teacher I'll hand in my homework tonight.

I ate at his place.

Your great-grandfather's house is like a fox den.

It must have been tough just now.

It's alright, they kept praising me.

It sounds quite pleasant.

You actually listened to that?

Did you get the answer?

Not a single word was extracted.

That girl is very steady.

Same here.

She also said she would go to the prefectural city after the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Even if everyone wants to keep an eye on it

They might not be able to keep an eye on it.

It's already Mid-Autumn Festival

Why hasn't the boss come back yet?

Don't let something really happen.

The old man and his eldest son's family are back.

You're finally back!

Why so late?

Something's held me up, Mom, please go inside quickly.

I'm sorry, Dad.

The son was wrong

I'm sorry to have worried you.

What could be more important than the Mid-Autumn Festival?

Dad, come inside and talk.

We can't say it in the courtyard.

Where is Ruxin?

I'm asking you a question.

Why didn't Ruxin come back?

He didn't come.

I know he didn't come.

I asked you where you are.

Married

What happened? Ru Xin got married.

Didn't she ask her second son to help her find a husband a while ago?

When was the engagement arranged and who will the bride marry?

Why don't they inform their families about the engagement and marriage?

Ru Xin got married.

My uncle is probably going to have some bad luck today.

She married someone from the county town.

All rooms

Ru Xin got married

Boss, I'm asking this one last time.

Who did Ru Xin finally marry?

Qian family

What kind of family is the Qian family and what is their financial situation?

Where was the banquet held?

Why the rush?

The Qian family is very good

After she entered the house, she lived a life of luxury.

No need to worry about food and clothing

What do they do at home?

How old is the man?

Do you have parents?

You should at least explain these things clearly.

Family business

We'll talk about the rich ones later.

I ask you

feast

No way

You're saying that not having a wedding banquet doesn't count as a marriage?

Are you out of your mind?

Big Brother

Did Ru Xin elope?

no

It wasn't an elopement.

Why was there no banquet?

Entering someone's home without a name or status

How will she ever face anyone again?

Did she become a concubine for a rich man?

My goodness, my daughter really dares to think like that!

Big Brother

Ru Xin went to become a concubine.

You unfilial son, you unfilial son!

I just guessed casually

The uncle actually sent his own daughter to be a concubine.

Who in the Qian family, the eldest brother, actually wanted Ruxin?

How old

Several concubines in the family

Why are you glaring at me like that? It's gotten to this point.

Still hiding

At once

Mr. Qian, who is a little older than me

It can't be that family is rich.

The wife's family is related to Master Qian, an official in the prefectural city.

Um

That father of mine is quite something.

He's already a great-grandfather.

The grandson can run and jump now.

What? I'm not a great-grandfather yet?

He became my granddaughter's husband first.

His father got married early.

Children and grandchildren also get married early

The age isn't that exaggerated.

Even if it's earlier, he's still older than his older brother.

And his backyard is quite lively.

He would bring in a concubine every few months.

Will Ruxin have a good life after going in?

Mrs. Qian is even more formidable.

I've heard that he's had so many concubines over the years.

None of them had a son or daughter.

Everyone in the county says that no matter how much trouble Master Qian can cause...

He couldn't escape the grasp of the first wife.

He doesn't even understand things about the old house.

Going into that kind of house is not allowed

People ate them so much that not even bones were left.

What the third brother said was true.

Ru Xin is different from others.

Master Qian said she was a concubine.

Besides the First Madam

She was the highest-ranking person in the mansion.

Even a noble concubine is still a concubine.

Uncle really treats the Qian family like a palace, doesn't he?

Whose idea was it?

Is it you or Wang?

We didn't force them.

Mr. Qian had met Ruxin before.

He mentioned it to me

When I got home, I heard that Ruxin was willing herself.

She said she wouldn't marry a peasant.

Go enjoy life

Does he even know what a concubine is?

He knew I really didn't pressure him.

First, show him the life of wealth and luxury.

Ask him again if he's going or not.

This is what you call "it doesn't matter"?

You put an unmarried woman...

Sending my daughter to that kind of inner quarters

They still think they did nothing wrong.

I found her a wealthy family.

No worries about food and clothing

It's better than marrying into a poor family and suffering.

Trading freedom for wealth

My older cousin is going to suffer in the future.

I've supported your studies of classical texts for so many years.

This is the kind of thing you produce.

father

You're so desperate for money that you have to rely on your daughter to become rich.

Is it possible that one day you won't have enough money?

Even your mother and I were sold.

Dad, don't say it so harshly.

Why sell your daughter?

I found Ruxin a capable

A good family to rely on for a lifetime

Good family

A concubine is a concubine

Our Zhao family has been like this for generations.

When did people start relying on selling girls to gain wealth?

The second son closed the door.

The third brother held him down.

Okay

What are you going to do?

I am a scholar

I am your eldest brother

Uh uh uh

Third brother, let go of me!

Dad told you to behave yourself

Big brother, don't move!

Makes you obsessed with money

Isn't the silver the Qian family gave you too hot to handle?

I can fall asleep with my eyes closed at night

Dad, I didn't sell it, that was a betrothal.

Ahhh

You still dare to say you're hiring?

How much silver did you take from the Qian family?

Not much, really not much.

I've been saving all of Ruxin's money for her.

You son of a bitch!

Big brother, it's Dad who beats you.

What does this have to do with me?

Dad, I have to go to school tomorrow.

You broke me.

How do I teach students?

You still know you are a gentleman

You teach others about morality and shame

He first sent his daughter to be a concubine.

Oh right, there's another one outside.

Mom, what are you doing?

You heartless bastard!

They even dare to deceive their own daughter.

It wasn't me who mentioned it, it was all Da Wen's work.

Ru Xin herself was also willing

They even dared to smear my son.

The mother-in-law is usually the most protective of the eldest son's wife.

Now they're even beating their sister-in-law!

She had never seen anything like it in her wildest dreams.

Second sister-in-law, save me!

ah

Mom, calm down.

If a real fight breaks out...

We won't get any benefit either.

He deserves his retribution.

It's because they've done too many immoral things.

I advised Ruxin

She insisted on going, no matter what.

Father, son, you're wrong, don't hit me.

Third brother, you took the opportunity to do something underhanded.

Brother, please don't wrongly accuse someone.

I've been holding you down.

Did nothing

If you dare to lie again

I'll keep playing today.

Ruxin is my daughter.

I can arrange it however I want.

When they talked about selling Zhao Xiaoyu before

Why didn't they react this strongly?

What should we do with the old man now?

Let's redeem Ruxin.

How much silver did the Qian family give?

250 taels

250 taels, no wonder my uncle was willing to part with it.

But this silver is more like a buyout.

The second half of a person's life

Let alone whether the Qian family is willing to release them or not.

250 taels

They might not be able to produce the third son.

What do you suggest we do about this?

Ruxin is the eldest brother's daughter.

First ask her if she wants to come back.

Don't let our family go through all that trouble.

In the end, she even complained that we ruined her dream of wealth and luxury.

Previously, they looked down on peasant families.

She said she would never marry a peasant.

How could she possibly be willing to serve a wretched old man?

The Qian family has the wealth and luxury she desires.

When his second brother arranged a marriage for him

Didn't she say she would never marry a peasant?

Dad, I swear

It was truly as I wished.

Shut up, if it weren't for you and the Wang family

I tell her every day how great the Qian family is.

How could a young woman like her find the Qian family's doorstep on her own?

Dad, you asked me

I got beaten again after I spoke up.

Hitting you would be too lenient.

Why don't we ask Ruxin first?

That Mrs. Qian is so formidable.

Being a concubine is no easy task.

You'd have to ask the eldest brother.

He was acquainted with Mr. Qian.

He's practically a father-in-law.

I've been there.

After Ruxin entered the door

Mr. Qian then turned hostile.

Wang wanted to see her daughter.

He wouldn't agree.

It is only said that the inner quarters are under the control of the lady.

He didn't ask.

I can't even see my own mother

A high-class family that wouldn't even let her see her own family.

Where is this the kind family Da Wen described?

Big Brother

The Qian family didn't explain it clearly to you back then.

Cannot see

Mr. Qian only said that Ruxin would have no worries about food and clothing in the future.

Nothing else was mentioned.

Then you dare to send your daughter there?

You dare send your daughter to a family like that?

Is your brain filled with shit?

father

I regret it now.

But it was too late.

I thought I could benefit from the Qian family for a long time.

Unexpectedly, 250 taels of silver completely bought out the relationship.

Third son

You know many people in the county town

Can you think of a way?

father

Master Qian doesn't even give face to his elder brother, who is also his father-in-law.

I'm afraid I won't even be able to get in the door if I go.

If Zhao Ruxin was forced into it

I will try to save them.

But he himself saw wealth and status as the way out.

Now deadlift

She might not be willing to leave.

The third son, Ruxin, became a concubine.

Our Zhao family has no face!

They've already lost face.

The path he and his older brother chose were their own.

I just hope I won't regret it later.

More silver

Without freedom, it's useless.

They can't even leave the gate.

Where can the money be spent?

Third son

Dad knows you resent me

It's also your older brother's fault.

I won't pressure you about anything else.

Ke Ruxin is still young

Mr. Qian is so old

What will he do for the rest of his life?

Dad, please help him.

father

They are all granddaughters

When you wanted to sell Xiaoyu back then...

Why didn't you think she was still young?

What will she do for the rest of her life?

Little Rain Pear Blossoms

Let's go home

Third son

Don't be angry, wife.

It's all in the past.

Now their daughter is a concubine.

Not our daughter

That's what they deserved.

Yes, yes, they deserve it.

We won't let them upset us.

Set up a new table at home

Cook chicken, duck, fish and meat

Call Xiao Lei to come too.

Let's have a good holiday as a family.

I can't eat.

I barely ate any.

Even if you're angry, you can't go hungry.

We are living a good life now.

They can only be envious.

Mother's heart is too soft

If it were my old house that they wanted to sell to me back then...

They still want my family to help them save people.

No way!

You guys eat.

I'm going back to my room to lie down for a while.

My older brother is really something.

A perfectly good Mid-Autumn Festival

And turned over the pages that had already been turned over.

Old grievances were brought up again.

After finishing her meal, Zhao Di went back to her room with her mother.

Your marriage can't be delayed any longer.

Mother, I'll listen to you.

In the past, I was picky

Zhao Ruxin is now a concubine.

I suddenly realized that I couldn't see it before

The houses above look much better to me.

Let's talk about the one I mentioned a few days ago.

Make a decision quickly

I will go find a matchmaker tomorrow.

Um

We really need to make a decision soon.

The news of Zhao Ruxin becoming a concubine spread

This might jeopardize Zhao Di's marriage.

What exactly did the fathers in charge say?

Will they go to the Qian family to redeem Ruxin?

Hey, what's so familiar about that?

Do we have anyone in our family who can be considered related to the Qian family?

Isn't the old man most fond of his granddaughter?

My third brother knows quite a few people now.

Stop dreaming.

The Qian family won't even let us see anyone.

It's no use who goes.

Ru Xin is unlikely to reappear.

Since the father-in-law refused to save Ruxin

Why did he hit us?

We're angry that we didn't tell him first.

Have you forgotten what happened with Xiaoyu back then?

Let's discuss it together.

He didn't utter a single objection.

So he got beaten up for nothing.

The Qian family won't even let us see Ruxin.

What else can others do? Don't even think about it.

He can't get out.

What will happen to Ruxin in the future?

The path to wealth he chose

They have no shortage of food and clothing

What can be done?

Go as far as you can before dark.

We can't go back to the old house anytime soon.

The Xiao family came looking for Young Master Xiao again.

They made a scene at the entrance for quite a while.

He left later.

Even during a major holiday, they can't let people have a moment's peace.

Mother, don't think about the old house anymore.

We are living a good life now

They can only be envious.

Thinking about the time I sold you

I feel so choked up.

Luckily you were alright, otherwise...

Then I don't want to

My eldest cousin's matter

It takes two to tango.

My uncle was the first to have wicked thoughts.

Aunt couldn't stop it

My eldest cousin is greedy for wealth.

The three hit it off immediately

She now feels that enjoying life...

Mr. Qian is so old

A new maid entered the household every few months.

His temperament

Can outmaneuver the wife

They surely understand these principles.

It's just that silver outweighed everything else.

We're not getting involved in this mess.

Let's live our good life.

Go ask Xiao Lei if he has eaten.

Come join us if you haven't eaten yet.

They're asking you for money again.

almost

My stepmother said that even if I severed ties with my family, I couldn't not send holiday gifts.

The family refused to leave the doorway.

I didn't open the door.

They only exchanged a few words through the door.

Later, they got tired of cursing and left.

Your dad didn't care either.

My dad kept comforting her.

In the past, my mother's cooking was slightly against the will of the gods.

He started cursing

Now you're quite tolerant.

The wicked will be punished by the wicked.

You ignore them

On the contrary, it is the most painful

Xiao Lei, when are you planning to go out?

There have been people watching us outside for the past few days.

I plan to leave after dinner.

Today is a holiday

I didn't see anyone staking out the area.

Everyone knows we've come back for a family reunion.

I never imagined we'd set off today.

What a smart person

They might come to guard at midnight.

Therefore, it is best to wait until it is completely dark.

Avoid taking the main road in the village

Go around and wait for them to react.

We've already entered the city.

I'll go inform Uncle Shunzi and the others right away.

No rest during Mid-Autumn Festival

Making money is about having a good holiday.

Waiting for the money to go into your pocket

I can eat meat every day

Shake off your tail today

I can only do business with peace of mind for the next few days.

old man

You didn't get this angry when you said you were selling Xiaoyu.

How did it come to this?

You wish you could beat the boss to death.

It was for the boss's future.

He needs money to study.

The family couldn't afford it

I had to swallow my pride.

You know what Xiaoyu was like back then.

The third couple had no son.

She really became someone's concubine.

The impact is also limited.

As different as the heart

She is the daughter of a scholar.

She went to become an old man's concubine.

What will others think of the boss?

Would the scholars in the county still be willing to associate with him?

The two grandsons will go to school and find husbands later.

All will be affected

200 taels of silver looks like a lot

What does it matter compared to his future prospects?

This is called picking up sesame seeds while losing a watermelon.

He has been trained for decades

Seeing that he had ruined himself and alienated everyone...

He still doesn't realize he's wrong.

If the people in the county knew he sold his daughter

Who would still be willing to send their child to him for tutoring?

What about Ruxin?

His parents don't care.

How much more can we manage?

No one should mention this again.

If the old man passes away first...

I can't afford to offend the third brother.

I'll have my third brother build me a small courtyard then.

Find someone else to serve you

He could have all the land.

It's time to go.

No one really followed.

Everyone's busy celebrating the holiday today.

This is just what we need to exploit.

Xiaoyu took a stroll around...

I'm not going shopping, I'm going back to sleep first.

I still have to work tomorrow.

We'll be going now.

I earned so much this year.

How do you plan to spend it?

I want to buy an apartment in the county town.

We don't live in the county town often.

Why buy a house?

When the rice gourds are in season next year

The whole family moved directly to the city.

Rent out the land

After delivering the goods, I went home to sleep.

It's not as comfortable as running back and forth.

The children can also broaden their horizons in the city.

Let's buy them one by one.

We'll still be neighbors.

Sister, everyone else is still sleeping.

We're back to work!

After finishing this period

In winter, you can sleep in every day.

They were still celebrating last night.

The moment I opened my eyes, the person was gone again.

We drank so much that even our parents wouldn't recognize us.

They've already gone out to earn money.

The difference is the difference.

They deserve to make so much money.

The head of the household heard from others that the third brother's family had disappeared again.

He left.

Staying won't do us any good.

You should hurry up and settle Zhao Di's marriage; don't delay any longer.

I'll go find a matchmaker right now.

I'll place the order after the autumn harvest.

I'll feel at ease if I settle things sooner.

I used to always complain that this person was poor and that person was ugly.

Now, the matter of Zhao Yuxin becoming a concubine weighs heavily on her mind.

We can't wait any longer to choose.

After the Mid-Autumn Festival comes the autumn harvest.

One thing after another happens in our family.

Don't always focus on others

There are only a few teenagers in the family.

I'm still worried.

Your mother and I will go back to visit in a few days.

Points to note on the way to Chengdu

Don't let anyone catch up.

Your family has never owned any land.

It's time to buy some.

The middleman has been keeping an eye out for me.

I'm too lazy to bother with one or two acres.

If you're going to buy, buy dozens of acres that are all connected together.

Your family no longer relies on growing grain to make a living from your dozens of acres of land.

Why buy so much land?

We always need to store some grain.

I'd like to raise some more things in the future.

What to raise

Buy the land first.

You've had the sweet milk tea your daughter made too?

Now, all the goat milk is delivered by a family in the neighboring village.

They'll send it if they have it today.

Tomorrow is gone

There's nothing we can do.

You're really planning to make a profit from that?

If someone likes to drink it, they can give it a try.

I really want to do this for a long time.

Raw materials cannot be entirely controlled by others.

That's something I have myself.

There is space to raise sheep.

You don't necessarily have to raise them all yourself.

In the future, we can also find a few households to raise them specifically.

We regularly collect milk.

So we still need land.

You used to worry about not having enough to eat.

Now we're already worried that a few dozen acres of land aren't enough.

Haha Uncle

Father has saved up some money this year.

What do you think is suitable to buy?

Buy a house in the county town

Uncle Shunzi and the others also had this plan.

When the river gourds are in season next year...

The whole family had to move the goods back and forth between the two locations.

The house can't have babies.

Bought and left

It would allow my child to study in the county town.

It's not like we can't afford it now.

Children go to the city

Who cooks and does the laundry?

What about the land at home?

Have one of your sisters-in-law go with you to take care of her.

Hire people to do the heavy work in the fields

How much does a day's rough work cost?

Others want to raise their children but lack the resources.

We now have the conditions

Why make the next generation dig the ground their whole lives?

Um

I'll keep this in mind.

After I'm done with my work, I'll go home and discuss it with Hulu.

Dad, what did you tell Grandpa this time?

They could hear it even in the backyard.

What is deception?

Dad is thinking long-term for them.

No matter how capable the elderly are

It's not as good as the child having his own abilities.

The master really listens to you.

Your father has a broad perspective

And not biased

Unlike your grandfather

Would you dare say that to my face?

I'm a shameless bastard who deserves a beating.

Hahaha

Parents go out to earn money

Leave me to watch the house

I'm so smart

Cooking and washing clothes for a bunch of naughty kids every day

This is a huge waste of talent.

They eat and drink well

I stay home and watch the chickens and the kids.

When I get back, they'll say I'm not doing my job properly.

Don't you have any conscience?

Thousand Dances

Holy crap, where did this ghost come from?

Sword Warrior

Don't call me brother

My mother didn't give birth to a daughter.

I came here specifically to find you.

My mother arranged a marriage for me.

If you don't come to propose marriage soon

There really won't be another chance.

Which idiot took over?

Congratulations, but you're not my type.

What's wrong with me?

Why do you always look down on me?

If you really want to say

explain

He's not even as tall as my shoulder.

Skinny

face dark and yellow

The child will live with you from now on.

I couldn't find him when he went out at night.

you

There's still a lot of white in the eyes.

He has a bad temper.

Most importantly

I don't like you at all.

To put it bluntly, it means I don't like you.

Don't waste your time on me anymore.

Since the marriage has already been arranged...

Just live well with them.

ha

Finally got out to relax

And then this happened.

Is it easy for me?

Uncle, come home quickly.

We are hungry

How come one or two of them know where I am?

I really can't take the usual path anymore.

Originally, it was thought that the matchmaker's previous proposal to the village chief had been rejected.

It's the village chief who unilaterally looks down on my family.

They even suspected that Uncle Three was behind it all.

I only found out today.

Zhao Jianwu himself never thought much of me.

He's just relying on having a village chief as his father.

A few stinking silver coins

If these are not available

He's just a loafer who hangs around all day.

As long as he's willing

I originally thought

Even if it's just to get things done first

The village chief had to agree to the marriage to save face.

Why cry on such a wonderful day?

Mother, I'm going to find Zhao Jianwu.

You're crazy, girl, you're about to propose marriage!

How can you meet a man in private?

Seen by others

Do you still care about your reputation?

I just want to marry someone better.

I can help you in the future.

Isn't the village chief's family rich?

And the result?

He said I was ugly.

They said I was too dark-skinned and that I wasn't good enough for him.

Mother had said long ago

They asked Zhao Di everything they could in the village.

Sometimes you have to accept your fate.

But the Lin family was just the tallest among the short.

I'll have to work and suffer just like her if I marry into the family.

Then start living your own life.

Raise your child well in the future

Your mother can't possibly harm you.

Then, after all that trouble, the Lin family broke off the engagement.

Just wait until you get your hair cut off and become a nun.

Xiaoyu took out another 100 cans.

The shopkeeper was in a hurry.

I have to make another delivery today.

knew

While others are busy with the autumn harvest, my feet are throbbing behind my head.

We can make money just by sitting on bags and gourds every day.

I never would have dared to dream of such a life before.

Don't be too happy yet.

Once the season is over, there won't be any fresh produce left.

Seize the opportunity to earn money

We also need to keep the inventory.

Don't sell them all at once

I'll listen to my daughter.

Now it's convenient to deliver goods even if you live in the county town.

I don't get tired even if I make a trip every two days.

What's wrong?

Sweet milk tea has been selling well these past few days.

But I didn't earn much.

Restaurants don't need to operate every day.

The more you want

The more goat milk you buy

The person delivering goat milk recently raised their price once.

How much will it rise?

It rose by more than 10%.

This isn't because we can't live without him.

Is it possible to raise prices on the spot?

Not entirely.

The weather is getting colder

Goat milk is already low in quantity and contains sugar.

Brown sugar is also expensive.

Always expensive

Put less

no

The guests are drinking this flavor today.

It has to taste the same tomorrow.

You can still taste the difference between a little sweetness and a little blandness.

Can you taste it?

able

So let's sell it like this for now.

We'll find a way to reduce costs later.

My parents sent a message through someone.

Speaking of this year's autumn harvest

We'll solve our own problems with our own land.

Why don't we sell the land after the autumn harvest?

My parents kept making us go back to the village every few days.

I'm done

Selling is possible

How to harvest the grain this time?

Hiring people

But no one was watching.

You wouldn't even know if we were missing a few bags of grain

I can't trust those peasants.

Then you go back and keep an eye on it.

I stayed in the county town to copy books.

You can earn quite a bit in a day

School Autumn Harvest Holiday

You're so busy copying books

Or is he trying to bring a fairy home while I'm away?

What nonsense are you talking about?

The whole family is going back, no questions asked.

If you're going back, just say so beforehand.

I don't go down to the ground

You don't need to download

I paid someone

You and your two sons should stay put.

The whole house will be subdued tomorrow.

Zhao Di is getting engaged soon.

Staying home to cook and deliver water

No one else can hide.

You go too, old woman.

My lower back has been really sore lately.

Just bear with it for a few days.

The weather has been unpredictable lately.

This year's harvest was poor again.

I feel more at ease knowing that the grain is stored in the warehouse as soon as possible.

Dad, you're not well.

Or stay home and rest.

If I go without a leader, it will be delayed by one day.

This year, less land

More people than last year

Finally, the second wife doesn't have to shoulder all the work.

Since the daughters-in-law entered the family

I haven't worked in the fields for many years.

Now the old man gets really fierce

They won't even spare me.

Harvest slowly, don't let the wheat ears fall to the ground.

I will pay you 30 coins a day.

Food must not be overlooked.

Scholar Zhao had a falling out with the old man.

The old man used to only have eyes for his eldest son.

This time he didn't even say a word.

Something big must have happened.

Big Brother

Without telling my parents

Nothing much to say.

Didn't you ignore him?

Now that they're gone, why are you still angry?

Copying books

If he's supported for decades just to earn a few bucks by copying books.

Why did I waste so much money back then?

How much did Uncle Liu and his family earn this year?

Their mouths were practically stretched to their ears.

At least three or four hundred taels

Five hundred taels is not impossible.

Your maternal grandfather's side definitely has more.

No wonder he was so happy

They were happy to find it.

Earning happily

Next, it's our turn to flower.

My daughter can choose whatever she wants to buy in the prefectural city.

Buy more jewelry for Mother and my sisters.

purchase

Dad, I still want to buy some gadgets.

I think cutting and gourds is more fun than peeling them.

I can travel to different places every day

You can also eat out

Cut but do not peel

Where does the sauce come from?

But pear blossoms have had a tough time.

Dad will buy you a few more fun toys.

Then I'll come back and continue wrapping.

What good stuff is stored here?

Tea

They even brought their own tea when they went to the prefectural city.

It's not for us to drink.

Sweet milk tea with goat milk

Without

What to do if there is no goat milk?

Such a long way

Fresh goat milk would have spoiled long ago if brought over.

So this time I went to the prefectural city

I'd like to see if I can buy goat milk locally.

You want to sell it in the prefectural city as well?

Let the shopkeeper try it first.

Our food tastes good.

It will definitely sell.

Being able to sell is one thing.

How to sell it is another matter.

What other differences are there?

If every bowl sold

We have to transport all the goat milk from the village.

Forget it, the money you earn isn't even enough to feed the mules.

So we'll see when we get there.

They are truly ruthless.

None of the good stuff was left.

Don't bother looking anymore, everyone has a mule cart this year.

It will definitely run farther than before.

Let's visit a few more counties and take a look.

If you can't find it, keep heading to the prefectural city.

become

Busy this year

At least the hard work wasn't in vain.

It was more than worth the hard work.

Let's go back to the village and see how Shunzi and the others spend their money.

You'll then know how emboldened you are when money is in your pocket.

Braving wind and rain for so long

It's time to treat myself.

Go shopping

The boss served 5 flowers

Give me 5 jin

I want 6 jin

Hey, give me 3 jin (1.5 catties)

This feels so good!

This feels so good!

Haha, I'm going home.

go home

Zhao Di's marriage was arranged.

The groom's betrothal gift was two taels of silver.

Other gifts include cloth and bedding.

I plan to give them all to Zhao Di.

An additional tael of silver should be added as a dowry.

When will the engagement be formally arranged?

The fifth day of next month

At that time, the third brother was probably still in the prefectural city.

Has the boss been notified?

I don't really want to call

Not calling out would only make us a laughing stock in front of outsiders.

If you two start arguing again

He's also your older brother.

What if he doesn't come?

He cares even more about saving face than we do, so he'll come.

If someone had any shame, they would send their own daughter to be a concubine.

I'll go to the county town tomorrow.

Look, it's him.

The daughter becomes a concubine for a rich man

Or is he a scholar?

Even her own daughter could be exchanged for silver.

I used to address him as Mr. Zhao.

Such a person can truly teach students well.

If the rumors reach the school again

My sense of dignity and

I'm afraid I really can't keep my job.

250 taels of silver can buy a house

But it may not be able to buy back a scholar's reputation.

This place is no longer habitable.

Rumors spread back to the school

I might not even keep this job.

We definitely have to move.

If you can buy a house

We don't have much cash left.

What if there's an emergency in the future?

Continuing to rent is not worthwhile.

A decent house with a well

At least ten taels a year

Ten years is one hundred taels

They were all given to the landlord.

You can't buy anything as good as before.

The money given by the Qian family looks like a lot.

When it really gets going, it's not enough to keep up with all the hassle.

We're also planning to sell our land.

There are still several dozen taels left after selling it.

With my wages, I can always make ends meet.

The money given by the Qian family

It's safest to switch to your own house first.

The set I saw last time was 165 taels.

I'm quite satisfied.

12 brick houses

There is also a well in the courtyard.

It's also close to the school.

Then try to lower the price further.

Don't rush to pay the money.

Every ounce saved counts

Later, my two sons studied and took exams.

Everything costs money

A house can be bought

You should always keep some money on hand for emergencies.

Big Brother

Second brother, come in and sit down.

I'm not sitting here anymore. I'll leave after I say that.

Is something wrong with Mom and Dad?

The fifth day of next month

Zhao Di's engagement

My father asked me to deliver a message.

Brother and sister-in-law, please return to the village as soon as possible.

What's wrong?

No slip of the hand

Dad said if I don't come, it'll cause gossip.

The new in-laws also watched

We're making a fuss at home.

We can't let outsiders laugh at us.

I understand, congratulations, second brother.

Your sister-in-law and I will go back then.

The message has been delivered

I'll head back first.

There's still work to be done at home.

Everything has happened.

What's the use of crying?

Wash your hands first, then I'll sweep.

Zhao Di also has an engagement.

There was also the man coming to the door in a proper manner.

What about our Ruxin?

There is nothing

He just entered the Qian family's house like that.

Don't just look at these formalities

Zhao Di is enjoying her moment of glory.

Even after marrying into the family, she still has to cook and work in the fields every day.

Ru Xin lives in a large mansion.

Food and clothing are served

You don't even need to get your fingers dirty.

Zhao Di has freedom

Where can she go?

It takes half a day to calculate the transportation cost to enter the county town.

What you said makes sense.

I'll go back and check on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year.

How much dowry will my second brother receive?

Even a random piece of jewelry from Ru Xin is more presentable than his.

My dear husband, how is Ru Xin doing now?

It's so good!

The concubine's time has come

It's time to pay my respects to the lady.

It's this time every day.

Not a moment too late

The rules in the lady's courtyard have always been like this.

What I eat and wear now

Wearing anything is much better than being in the Zhao family.

There were people serving him in the room.

But every morning I have to go to the main courtyard to stand in the rules.

Listen to the nanny's instructions

Even leaving the hospital requires reporting.

This is the life of luxury that Mother spoke of.

The stuff is good stuff

There are so many rules.

Well, having this is better than going back to the village to work in the fields.

Aunt Zhao

The lady dislikes people who lack manners the most.

After entering the Qian family's door

First, try to rein in your temper from when you were at your parents' home.

knew

It's the master's business to spoil you.

The order of seniority is the rule in the mansion.

Don't forget your place just because you've gained some temporary favor.

The term "noble concubine" sounds respectable.

Even when facing the main house, one still has no right to be willful.

He even said that besides his wife, I was the highest-ranking person.

At the very least, they have to stand and listen to lectures every day.

My aunt and uncle are coming to our place again tonight.

I understand. I'll prepare hot water and change my clothes.

Zhao Ruxin can read

Can recite a few lines of poetry?

I also like the occasional bursts of his coquettishness and freshness.

Have you been settling in well these past few days?

With the master taking care of him

Everything is good, of course.

As long as you go along with what Master Qian says

The other party is willing to give clothes and jewelry.

It will also allow the kitchen to cook more of my favorite dishes.

Mother is right

Men love to hear compliments

As long as I make her happy

Of course, I wouldn't miss out on all the good stuff in this mansion.

Tea mixed with goat milk

Miss Zhao, this tastes good!

I asked that same question the first time I met him, and then...?

Then I drank three bowls.

Shopkeeper, please try it.

this

How about it?

The bitterness of the tea has lessened.

Goat milk doesn't have a strong goaty smell.

What is this thing called?

Sweet milk tea

Can this be delivered every day?

I can't give you anything to try.

Finished product cannot be delivered

What's the meaning

Goat milk should not be stored for long.

Transported from our place to the prefectural city

It might break down on the way.

But you can cook it yourself.

Give me the recipe

That won't do.

The really difficult

It's not about mixing several things together.

How much tea and how much sugar?

How much goat milk

They all need to be fixed.

We provide tea and sugar.

You find a stable source of goat milk in the city yourself.

Freshly cooked daily

What to do if you can't sell them?

Do 200,000 first

I'll cover the cost of any unsold materials.

karma

This is tea.

It also has a milky aroma.

Give us a pot too.

The shopkeeper is gone

There are still two tables asking questions.

50 bowls tomorrow

Selling well is not a problem

The real problem is how to ensure there is milk every day.

They all have sugar and taste the same.

Girl, has something happened in our village?

Why is no one watching?

How many times have we traveled back and forth to the prefectural city?

Everyone's used to it.

Make a few more trips

Even the kids are too lazy to follow

It's really a shame I even made a special trip before entering the village.

Clothes neatly arranged

The old man's family is all well.

The eldest daughter of the second master's family is already engaged.

The old man wasn't in the village and missed it.

Zhao Di is really in.

Which family is the man from?

I heard from the outer village

The family's financial situation is similar to that of the old house.

It's good to marry someone of equal social standing.

What to do for winter?

Everything is ready

Xiaoyu accompanied her father to the old house.

When you come back from a long trip, you should always visit your grandparents first.

You and Lihua should rest at home, Mom.

Pack your things slowly

Xiaoyu and I went to the old house.

It was getting dark.

Go early and come back early

I'm back

Daughter

They really weren't deliberately avoiding me.

Father's family used to surround

It's because it's the first time I've seen you bring so many cars back.

Now I see it every few days.

It's lost its novelty.

I even changed into a smart outfit before entering the village.

Why

Try wearing gold again next time.

Never mind, it's too heavy.

The third child is back.

Dad is inside.

Have a safe journey!

Ting Shun

You're back from the prefectural city!

I'm back

Both parents are in good health.

All is well, and I hope you had a safe journey.

Safety

The family has been separated for a long time

The relationship will naturally not be the same as before.

When squeezed into a pot

Third Uncle

Hurry home after school

Uncle brought you candy from the prefectural city.

Thank you, Uncle San

My third uncle's family has no sons.

After Xiaoyu, they got married.

It's not necessarily possible to have a son.

Who can predict the future?

Your third uncle just came.

Why didn't you go out and call someone?

When I heard my third uncle

I just think of that bastard Zhao Jianwu.

Why did he say I was both dark and yellow?

They even said I have a lot of white in my eyes.

You're already engaged.

Why are you still thinking about him?

Besides his father being the village chief

I think it's inferior to this place in every way.

They initially said their three sons would study for another year.

Whoever learns best will stay.

If only I had known he would work this hard

We shouldn't have made that promise in the first place.

Where is the candy that my aunt and uncle brought?

There will be three of you inside.

The Master has already made it very clear.

Among the three children

The eldest son is the most diligent

The best academic performance

But the eldest son is the oldest.

Next year, the best course of action is to drop out of school and go home to work.

When the time comes, let Dazhu stop.

Can he accept this?

Mom, I've finished studying.

If I had known he would work this hard

We shouldn't have made that one-year agreement in the first place.

He is currently the best performer.

He really dropped out of school

Can he be willing?

The pie I made in front of everyone

Now they've put themselves in a precarious position.

The child's mother cooked a few more dishes tonight.

I want to have a few drinks with Uncle Shunzi and the others.

Father, you just came back from the prefectural city, aren't you tired?

Isn't Xiao Lei tired?

Call him over too

The things have already been delivered by the housekeeper.

He should be here soon.

Oh, Xiao Lei is here.

Uncle Zhao

Where's your dad, Sword Warrior?

Then came

He complained that I, a grown man, couldn't drink.

Let me practice with Uncle Zhao.

Lei Zi happened to be there too.

Let's chat tonight, brothers.

I need to find an opportunity to ask Xiao Lei to take him hunting in the mountains.

Xiaoyu Girl

Long time no see

She's getting more and more radiant.

Thank you for the compliment.

I heard your parents have been looking for a girl for you recently.

Is there one you like?

Don't even mention it, it's not like I'm being pretentious.

It's just that our tempers don't match.

I even suspect my parents deliberately pick the most...

Bring home anything that doesn't suit my taste.

That mouth is still so sharp.

No wonder matchmakers are afraid of him

Young man, don't have too high standards.

Living life isn't about choosing a fairy from a painting.

Uncle

Getting married is a lifelong commitment.

I can't just settle for anything.

Who attacked me?

If your mouth can't speak, then shut it up.

There is no bronze mirror at home

You haven't even taken a piss yet.

Where do they get the audacity to nitpick and complain?

How can you speak so disparagingly of your own son?

Am I your biological child?

no

Look at Xiao Lei.

Steady and capable

Look at you again

Like a monkey

I was prepared for this.

I actually think sword fighting is pretty good.

Have your own opinions

Don't be unconvinced.

The matchmakers are getting tired of your picky choices.

I'll find you a wife soon.

I can finally stop seeing it and getting rid of this annoyance sooner.

Dad, I'm still your own son.

That's why I'm worried.

Look at Xiao Lei.

A steady person who can hunt

Besides being quick-witted, what else can you do?

Wait for Lei to take me up the mountain

You'll know.

Don't harm the things in the mountains yet.

Too many opinions

I think he's destined to be a bachelor.

I really want to throw this brat into the river and soak him in it.

Let's see if we can soak the water out of the brain.

What if it gets watery the longer it soaks?

Or roast it over a fire

Maybe it can be dried out a bit.

You're discussing how to punish me right in front of me.

Is it appropriate?

My son is truly unbearable to look at.

Hahaha

Uncle, you're back just in time!

We've all discussed it and agreed.

I'll take turns treating you to meals

Thank you for helping everyone make money.

Hahaha

turn

One family a day

Ha ha

almost

Are you thanking me or trying to drink me to death?

At least five days apart, one family

Five days is too long

My wife won't agree to it for three days.

If it lasts three days, then it lasts three days.

Xiao Lei will be with me from now on.

good

Finally, there's another man in the house.

Someone will drink for me from now on.

Jianwu, you really need to learn more from Xiao Lei.

They are steady and reliable

You jump around all day long

As I said before

I'm not married yet.

After getting married, they naturally become more stable.

Whoever marries you will be unlucky.

Whoever marries me is blessed with good fortune from eight lifetimes.

Shut up

Hahaha

So stuffy

I'll live with Xiaoyu from now on.

The two of them wouldn't exchange ten sentences each inside the house.

One only replies with "um".

Lei Zilai

On behalf of your uncle, I'd like to offer a toast to all your uncles.

become

ha

ah

Lei Zi collapsed after one round.

That's only one lap.

I was hoping he'd cover for me a couple of drinks in the future.

Uncle Zhao, I've already done two laps.

Nothing happened

It shows you can drink a lot and make money.

Still able to support a family

Dad, we really can't see eye to eye.

Hahaha

Why

Send her back to her own courtyard

Drunk to the point of being like this

Send a servant to keep watch for one night.

Even if you need water at night, someone will take care of you.

yes

Oh, my daughter

Xiao Lei's alcohol tolerance is too low.

He collapsed after one lap

What to do next?

That's good, it just means he doesn't like to drink it.

If it were like you

Always smelling of alcohol

I'm the one who finds it annoying.

Men who don't drink alcohol

Don't you think something's missing?

He can hunt wild boars.

How many men in our village can fight?

Your daughter is really leaky.

Reed fluff is not warm to begin with.

Leakage is normal

That hurts.

Less poor

Don't you have to attend drinking parties recently?

That's why I need to practice Xiao Lei even more!

From now on, it will just be the two men in the house, him and me.

If he doesn't keep me company, who will?

Dad, let me ask you something first.

After Xiao Lei got drunk

How is the quality of the wine?

Xiao Lei drank it and then fell asleep.

Don't make a fuss, hahaha

That's still a father.

You should take him out drinking less often in the future.

I don't want to be stuck with an alcoholic every day from now on.

Drinking alcohol is harmful to health

Drinking until blackout

The brain is also prone to malfunction.

Really?

My father was not well-educated

Don't lie to me.

Look at the people who are drunk every day.

Several are healthy

A clear mind

Listen to your daughter

Let's get together

Eating and chatting is a good thing too.

The wine was both bitter and spicy.

What's good to drink?

Life is tasteless without alcohol.

You women don't understand

Dad really dares to jump around on the grave.

One more thing

Dad has to sleep next door tonight.

water

The master is worried that you might be uncomfortable at night.

Tell the younger brother to stay and look after it.

There's still porridge in the pot.

I serve you

Thank you

Uncle Zhao complained that I had a low alcohol tolerance.

They've arranged everything for me.

Big Brother

What a coincidence!

It was quite a coincidence that Dad was just tired from walking.

Let's go inside and sit down.

That's the eldest brother

Dad can't stand being tired

Waiting for me at my doorstep is also called Qiao.

What I really care about

It's the money Xiao Lei has earned and the connections behind it.

We're all one family

What's wrong with me coming in for a visit?

No time

Stop right there! Believe me or not, I'll report you to the clan chief for being unfilial.

Uncle really wants to sue the unfilial son.

You should also sue your two biological sons.

We broke off our ties a long time ago.

Even if we break off our ties, I'm still your father.

I didn't give you your life.

If my grandparents hear you using those words to pressure me again...

The coffin lid is probably about to burst open.

Brother, I heard you made a lot of money with the Zhao family.

Your food and lodging are taken care of now.

There's more money than you can spend.

Our family is very tight on money.

We are your younger brothers

Can't you lend a hand?

When you enter the Zhao family...

Our family is wealthy and powerful.

You will have more confidence.

Your private savings are kept at home

We've kept it for you.

Absolutely cannot escape

And what exactly did the Zhao family take you out for?

Tell us in detail.

Are you sure?

You really want my money

Of course, we're keeping it for your own good.

Why make such distinctions among family members?

You earn more

Shouldn't you help your younger brother?

Hey, what are you doing?

Xiao Lei

Didn't you want money?

Continue

You dare hit my son

You little beast, stop right there!

Keep cursing

The harsher your insults

The harder I hit

They are your younger brothers.

My mother only gave birth to me.

Uncle, don't randomly claim relatives.

If you ever come to my house again and block my door demanding money...

I'll beat up Xiao Yong and Xiao Qiang.

I'll hit you every time you come.

The harsher your insults

The harder I hit

Why do you have to be so extreme?

Who is the best?

The severance of kinship was written very clearly.

You still want my money?

My way of life

They even wanted to dig out how the Zhao family made their money.

Want to swallow all the benefits

Not afraid of overeating

I am your father

I gave you my life.

My life is thanks to Uncle Xiao, whom my mother carried for ten months.

You want to steal all the credit from a woman?

Hahaha

My surname is Xiao, but I'm not the Xiao from your Xiao Ping family.

The village will really need me to support them in their old age.

I only acknowledge Dr. Chen, who saved my life back then.

If you get beaten, go find your mother.

You haven't been weaned yet.

Sword Warrior is a disgrace.

You guys come to cause trouble for Xiao Lei every day.

You want me to help you get revenge?

But now we're the ones getting beaten up.

You are our boss

Xiao Lei is also my brother.

I'm protecting

You bullied my brother

You want me to back you up?

Dream on

It's not obvious that Jianwu has a high status in the village.

They've all become bosses.

Hahaha

Xiao Lei is a member of your family.

He has injured someone.

You shouldn't interfere.

I think you played pretty well.

If anyone else is so clueless as to come knocking on my door, they'll get a beating.

Xiao Lei, you're welcome.

Just leave a breath

Hahaha

you

You are in cahoots

He even stuttered when he spoke.

If you are sick, you need to get treatment.

You all shut up!

Mother, please don't!

Village chief Xiao Lei injured someone in front of the entire village.

What exactly did you say today?

Village chief Xiao Lei beat my two sons like this.

You need to give me an explanation today.

statement

You only said he hit someone.

Why not say why he hit him?

No matter what, you must not lay a hand on them.

This is in front of Xiao Lei's house.

Even after you severed ties, you still come to our door every day demanding money.

Ask about the path to wealth

Who could stand it?

He was pushed to the limit and fought back.

It can only be considered self-preservation

I am his father

They are his younger brothers

snort

They've all broken off ties.

You still use that phrase to pressure people every day.

Is this interesting?

Even if we sever ties, I'm still his father.

Then go ask my grandparents in the underground.

See if they acknowledge what you've done over the years.

snort

Xiaoping

The person has left the house

Stop bothering me

The child didn't eat your food.

I didn't spend your money.

Why are you always eyeing his money?

My family only has a few acres of land

The two children will need to get married in the future.

Xiao Lei used to get some extra income from hunting.

Now not a penny out

They really won't give me money.

Let him tell us how the Zhao family makes money.

We can do it ourselves, right?

Why should I tell you about their business?

If a child was injured today, compensation must be paid.

Fifth Brother, we won't cause trouble anymore.

Can I still hang out with you?

Take your parents back first.

Isn't it embarrassing to stand here like this?

So you're not going to kick us out?

Let's see how you do it in the future.

Parents come home

We will not pursue today's matter further.

Even if I get beaten up, I won't pursue the matter.

You must have gotten your brain stuck in a door.

Mother, if you keep making a fuss...

Fifth Brother really doesn't want us anymore.

Slow down, you're still injured.

Village chief, your son is something else!

The two boys got beaten

What I fear most is not my parents

I'm afraid he won't acknowledge me as his little brother, haha.

Many thanks to Uncle Village Chief for today.

Thank you Jianwu as well.

I'd like to treat you to a meal.

Do you cook at home?

What can you do?

I've been eating at the Zhao family's house most of the time these days.

I haven't really cooked much in my yard.

Okay, don't make things difficult for him.

Everyone come to my house

Everyone was there.

Eat a hot meal

I'm sorry to bother Uncle Zhao again.

You've bothered me more than once or twice.

I'm used to it

You're still laughing? I'll deal with you then.

I'm the one who made a contribution today.

What kind of boss are you in the village?

How dare you mention meritorious service?

Uh...

Hahaha

Sister, I still want to eat yellow buns.

You really know how to eat.

I'll pack it for you in a few days.

Hahaha

Why did Dad bring so many people again?

The Xiao family just had another commotion.

Xiao Lei beat up Xiao Yong and Xiao Qiang.

Jianwu helped settle the matter.

Make more dishes for lunch

Yang did not make a fuss

Making a fuss is useless.

His two sons listened to Jianwu.

Faster than hearing from one's own mother

Zhao Jianwu really did become the village boss.

Don't say

Quite stylish

The village chief is going to beat him up in a bit.

Remember to offer a few words of advice.

They did help Xiao Lei after all.

Know

I actually think Jianwu is quite to my liking.

He's quick-witted and has a sharp tongue.

It's just too bouncy.

Don't overthink it.

Hurry up and accompany the guests

Why

Kill a chicken, cut a piece of cured meat, and stir-fry it with garlic leaves.

Kill one of the fish in the tank and make boiled fish.

Make two more batches of pan-fried buns

yes

This is delicious, sister.

The bottom is crispy and the inside is soupy.

I'll make breakfast if I like it.

Um

The guests haven't eaten yet.

Shall we eat first?

Several dishes have already been served outside.

They never stop drinking.

Let's eat first.

I'll send the next batch to them.

When your dad comes back

The house is lively again.

Today is the important day.

Xiao Jiagang confronted Xiao Lei demanding money.

I'd also like to ask about our family's ways to make money.

Xiao Lei beat up his two younger brothers

Was the beating serious?

The Yang family is no pushover.

Thick skin

It can't be that bad

Xiao Lei acted with restraint.

This child has such a hard life.

Xiao Ping treated him worse than a stranger.

But I remember Xiao Ping back then wasn't this beastly.

He still treated Xiao Lei fairly well.

It means that he often beats Xiao Lei Niang.

Later, after Yang entered the family...

It's getting more and more out of control.

I always felt that Yang had led her astray.

A man whose mother can beat his wife

Can he be considered a good man?

He used to beat Xiao Lei's mother.

When Xiao Lei was seriously injured and on the verge of death

He took care of her for a day without...

The village chief said he didn't even go to look at it.

Finally, they severed ties when the child was at his lowest point.

It didn't get bad later.

It was always bad from the start.

But he is, after all, Xiao Lei's biological father.

Why can they be so ruthless?

Who knew that Yang would fight over things for her child?

Not a good person either

But he was able to bully Xiao Lei time and time again.

It was Xiao Ping who was urging him on from behind.

Xiao Ping did not nod.

He dared to drive the child left by his first wife to the brink of death.

So it's not a matter of one person leading the other astray.

It was Xiao Ping's own willingness to do this.

Now that we've severed ties, it's just as well.

No one should try to extort Xiao Lei by using the father-son relationship anymore.

Uh-huh

From now on, our daughter will be good at judging people.

You have to keep your eyes shining.

Kneel

Are you crazy? They were just beaten up like this by Xiao Lei.

You still hit

It's precisely because they were beaten that they deserved to be beaten even more.

Today, Xiao Lei finally found himself in the wrong.

We could have taken this opportunity to demand compensation.

The two of them are fine.

Take over the matter yourself

A beating for nothing

They are still young

I was fooled by Zhao Jianwu

Can't we just talk things out properly?

Dad and Fifth Brother are our eldest.

Xiao Lei is the brother he's protecting.

We really can't cheat him anymore.

Say it again.

Can't we find other ways to make money?

Don't keep staring at Xiao Lei

Other methods

Tell me how to earn it.

Fighting with Zhao Jianwu

People know who you are

Fifth Brother is loyal

He simply didn't know the Zhao family's method of making a fortune.

If I had known, I definitely would have brought my brothers.

Um

I have explained the reasoning very clearly.

Fifth Brother is really good to us.

They've always treated us like brothers.

This is utter nonsense!

You two idiots

They were so disgusted with it today.

She still treated him like her own brother.

He thinks we're not loyal.

I won't bother Xiao Lei anymore.

It will be fine naturally.

Zhao Jianwu is just playing you guys.

Mother should be an upright person.

Stop talking bad about our boss.

He knew he would be angry.

Two biological sons actually for

An outsider turned around and talked back to me.

ah

A gentleman uses words, not fists.

Mother, save Fifth Brother

The head of the family

Give it your all!

Wake them up

Mother, why are you like this too?

run

Um

good

Where are you going?

He still has injuries

Mom and Dad, we'll come back after you've calmed down.

Come back here, get back here!

Stop crying, they ran so fast.

I didn't really hit anything just now.

They'll come back once they've calmed down.

Why do they listen to Zhao Jianwu?

Was it the village chief who deliberately let it?

His son was coaxing our child.

There must be a ghost.

Uncle Zhao and the village chief are now inseparable.

This time, they went out to make money but deliberately left Zhao Jianwu behind.

Who knows if they had planned this beforehand?

My two sons whom I raised with care

Now everyone calls him Fifth Brother.

He doesn't even listen to his own aunt.

I'm not done with them yet.

Making a scene now is useless.

Let's talk it over properly when the child comes back.

Zhao Jianwu actually looked down on them.

Continuing down this path will only make us look like monkeys.

And Xiao Lei

He beat the child like this today.

That beating was for nothing.

What else can I do but suffer for nothing?

The two brats said they wouldn't pursue the matter.

The village chief is protecting her again.

Continuing to cause trouble will only make us more embarrassed.

Brother, where are we going?

Cannot go home

Fifth Brother doesn't really like us anymore.

Go up the mountain, catch a wild pheasant, and roast it.

Take this opportunity to nourish your body

We'll go back after Mom and Dad calm down.

Xiao Lei can catch chickens and rabbits every day

Can we be worse than him?

Let's catch one today and show it to them.

It was already dark by the time the family was settled.

Why haven't they come back yet?

I went out to look

You stay at home and watch over things.

Perhaps they'll come back on their own in a while.

Xiao Yong Xiao Qiang

Have you gone home?

Did you find it?

Could something have really happened to them?

I went to the village chief's house

They listen to Zhao Jianwu the most.

Maybe he's hiding somewhere.

Xiao Ping

Village chief, are Xiao Yong and Xiao Qiang in your house?

So what if I've never been here?

He went home, cursed a few times, and then ran away.

He hasn't come back yet.

I walked around the village twice.

I even looked for dilapidated houses.

Riverside

Nobody

Sword Warriors, do you guys usually hide people somewhere?

What secret place is there?

We were just wandering around the village.

I've been with you all day.

They didn't come looking for me.

What should the village chief do?

In the dark

Where can the child go?

Don't scare yourself.

Let's search again.

Jianwu, go ask your group.

See if they're hiding in someone's house.

Don't call all the children in the village out.

I'll come back after asking.

You go home and keep watch first.

You are all outside

What if the child comes back on his own?

There was no one at home.

Jianwu can find them

Go back first, someone will call you immediately if there's any news.

Xiaoyong and Xiaoqiang

Bro, are we lost?

I just saw that crooked tree.

Don't worry, we haven't gone deep into the mountains.

Don't go down any further.

Keep going downhill

We'll definitely be able to get down the mountain.

Will there be wolves, brother?

No, this isn't a remote mountain area.

Hold on tight and don't get lost

Big brother, please don't leave me!

I'm afraid to shut up too.

Father didn't

I usually play with them

I asked all the children's families.

Everyone says they've never seen them before.

Where did the village chief and the others go?

No outsiders broke into the village

No one would harm two children for no reason.

The most dangerous place is left only

It could be the riverbank or the back hill.

Tell everyone to light all the torches.

Focus on searching along the riverbank and the back hill.

No one should act alone.

The person has not been found yet.

Bring any torches, ropes, or sticks that you don't have at home.

Call a few more strong men

Don't actually fall into the river.

No, definitely not.

What's wrong with Shunzi so late?

Xiao Yong and Xiao Qiang have disappeared.

I got beaten up in the afternoon and ran away.

He hasn't come back yet.

Xiao Ping and Yang Shi were both so anxious that they cried.

Is this another act to extort money?

Unlike Yang's eyes, which were shaped like walnuts from crying.

Let's go find Xiao Lei first.

If something really goes wrong, don't blame him in the end.

As expected, those two were the biological children.

When I was about to die

I've never seen them in such a hurry.

Let's leave that aside for now.

They searched the whole village.

Where else do you think we could go?

They were bold in the back mountain.

Loves to play around

Maybe they wanted to go up the mountain to catch something.

It's too dangerous to go into the mountains this late.

Don't go deeper

Only look for the periphery

Bring torches and weapons

Call more strong men

Can't find it anywhere

Only the mountain remains.

I asked the village chief to call more people.

Many hands make light work

good

There's another sentence

Finding someone is one thing

One's own life is the most important.

Don't get yourself involved because of them.

Uncle Zhao, rest assured

I know what I'm doing.

Tell the village chief

Torches, other provinces

Don't scatter.

Xiao Yong Xiao Qiang

What kind of mess is this?

The whole village searched for their son late at night.

Dad, go back and rest.

The evil will last for a thousand years

They probably got lost while playing.

The village chief brought so many people

Search the surrounding area; it should be fine.

Hopefully they'll find it soon.

Don't stay up all night.

Brother, someone is calling us.

We are here, Dad.

We are here

Help! We're here!

ah

Big Brother

Ahhh

Get out of my way!

My arm is about to break and it hurts too.

You gave me some time to calm down.

Is there any movement?

I'm looking there.

Bro, how's your arm?

fine

Will they find us, brother?

meeting

Pride and Courage

Pride

Wait, did I just hear someone shouting for help?

Help! We're here!

Xiao Yong and Xiao Qiang's father has arrived.

father

We rolled down the slope.

Where is the injury? Are the bones okay?

Why be so careful?

My foot hurts, but my brother's arm hurts even more.

So he could worry about his son like that too.

It's just that it's never my turn.

Village Chief Changyong's arm hurts terribly.

Xiaoqiang's foot was also injured.

Could you make a stretcher and carry them back?

Oh, here we go again.

Xiao Qiang is capable of fighting

Xiao Yong was injured in the arm, not the leg.

It's not far from the foot of the mountain.

Both of them can walk on their own

But they had just rolled down the mountain

It hurts so much!

We got up from the kang (heated brick bed) and searched all night.

I'm also very tired.

Why

Dozens of people braved the night to enter the mountains

You haven't even said thank you yet.

The first thing to do after finding the person was to ask everyone to lift them up.

The village chief has been found.

Let's head back first.

I still have to work tomorrow morning.

Thank you all for your hard work tonight.

I'll treat everyone to a meal another day.

Village chief, why are you being so polite?

It's not your child.

Why

In the future, you'll have to rely on others to help you with these kinds of things.

Kindness should not be taken for granted.

Everyone is right.

I was the one who called them out tonight.

Please remember this.

Someone was already preparing to put him on a stretcher.

He's so talkative.

They are all from the same village

It's so tiring to help lift it.

Get up, let's hurry home.

What to do if no one carries Dad?

What else can we do?

Go by yourself, your mother is still waiting at home.

Village chief, thank you for your help tonight.

Go back and rest.

Both are biological sons

How could your heart be so biased?

What has Xiaoyu been busy with lately?

I haven't seen you around lately, Xiaoyu.

I went to visit the film crew next door.

Shen Yuan is busy making his fortune by going to the beach.

You're even more troublesome than me!

Shen Yuan, come in.

I heard that fish fight to get into your net when they see you.

Not squeezing in

Neither of you should say who's less troublesome.

You worthless piece of trash, I'll beat you to death today!

Now

It's my turn to settle the accounts.

Where is my house?

Got you?

The bucket is almost full and you're still picking it up.

These are all freebies.

Why not?

We get these freebies everywhere here.

That's why I like it here.

Leave the abyss

Born on the sea

My destiny is in my own hands

In this life, I will control my own destiny.

Rewrite your own destiny

This sea is the starting point of my rebirth.

Thank you for your love, babies!

Oh, and don't forget to click "favorite" and "pre-order"!

My next drama is about a woman who transmigrates into a Han Chinese woman and marries a fisherman.

Beachcombing Brings Prosperity to Fishing Villages

Please look forward to it!

Both sides agreed to meet in the drama.

My eldest cousin became a concubine in the Qian family for wealth and status.

Two hundred and fifty taels to buy out the rest of my life

But I turned the river gourd into silver.

The Xiao family fell out

Torches were sent into the mountains overnight.

This storm has only just begun.

Stop crying, so many people are looking for you.

The child will definitely come back.

We'll have to eat when they get back.

Take a break.

Can you really find it?

I hope nothing bad has happened to them.

Our village didn't take any pictures of beggars.

No one would harm two children.

Maybe he just fell asleep somewhere.

As long as they return safely

I will never hit or scold you again.

Your parents are calling you home.

The person has been found

They found it in the back.

Dad also said that we should have less contact with the Xiao family in the future.

Yang Family Girl

Something happened at home.

I'm going back now.

Okay, thank you, sister-in-law.

Tell me, what exactly are you doing up the mountain?

He got such a temper after just one beating.

He doesn't go home even when it gets dark.

We want to catch a chicken and roast it.

Who knew the chicken wouldn't be caught?

I can't find the way.

It was so dark in the mountains that you couldn't see anything.

There were also wild animal cries.

We were terrified.

Still know how to be afraid

Will we still go up the mountain in the future?

I'm not going, I'd rather die than go.

I originally thought Xiao Lei could catch chickens and rabbits every day.

We can definitely do it too.

What are you comparing yourself to him for?

He ran in the mountains since he was a child

You've never even killed a chicken in your own home.

It's really hard to catch.

We've been walking for so long

I didn't see a single chicken feather.

Why

Babies, thank you all for liking to dress up as a peasant girl.

Raising kids and farming is so much fun!

Exciting plot

The next season is currently in rapid production.

More exciting things to come!

Remember to click to reserve and add to your favorites!

What happened? Wasn't the child found?

Once you find it, stay away from the Xiao family.

Yang cried like that

I'm just keeping her company.

You don't know what's going on up the mountain.

Dozens of people from the whole village searched for most of the night.

After the person was found

Xiao Ping didn't even say thank you.

He immediately asked everyone to carry his son on a stretcher.

Clearly, it's just an injured arm.

One can still walk

People will be back soon, and then we'll have to eat.

Take a break.

Stop crying, so many people are looking for the child.

I've already told the child...

Don't mess around with Xiao Yong and Xiao Qiang.

After that, we should have less contact.

Why haven't they come back yet?

Didn't they say they found it?

The valiant and strong leader

daughter

My son

It's good that you're back.

It's good that you're back.

Where have you two brats been?

Do you know how worried your dad and I are?

Mom, please don't scold me, my feet hurt.

My arm hurts too.

Help us get home first.

The head of the household should quickly call the doctor.

Da Yong, did you break a bone in your arm?

First, let's go home. Dr. Chen said he wouldn't take on any more cases involving our family.

Going there late at night is useless.

How will you know if you don't try?

Bones must not be injured

What if I can't use my hands properly later?

How exactly did you guys fall?

It's dark and you can't see.

It rolled down the slope.

My hand hit the tree.

It hurts when touched, Mom

It's not really broken, is it?

What are you standing there for, sir?

Go find Dr. Chen right away

He won't come.

ah

This time I'll give you money

The debt from before wasn't bad.

Go and beg him.

Parents, please stop arguing.

Why won't they treat us?

Don't you know what's going on?

They tried to renege on the previous consultation fees.

How long have the villagers been laughing at us?

This time it will definitely be good.

Double portions are fine.

Eat first, Mom will watch you eat.

Who is it?

What are you doing here?

Doctor, my two sons rolled down the mountain.

An injured hand

A cow horn

Please go and take a look.

I would have said I didn't have time.

Don't come looking for me again.

Wait, this time they'll really pay the consultation fee.

Never delay payment

I'll give you two.

Humph, shouldn't two patients be charged two separate consultation fees?

You're treating this as an extra payment.

That's how much should be given.

I only ask that you come over once.

Don't go

Doctor, the child is really badly injured.

Your medical ethics are benevolent

We can't just stand by and watch someone die, can we?

Don't try to intimidate me with your medical ethics.

I used to come to your home to treat your illnesses.

The doctor will not pay the consultation fee.

And you guys are still scolding me.

I am not capable of setting foot in your esteemed residence.

The past is the past.

This time it's really different.

They're trying to trick my dad into working for free again.

Dr. Chen's child is still injured.

I can only go to the county town tomorrow.

I wonder how much money this trip will cost.

What should we do if someone in the family gets a headache or fever in the future?

The old folks always say you can't offend a doctor, no matter who else you are.

This is not just idle talk.

If it weren't for Mr. Yang's previous refusal of medical fees...

And always offending the people around Xiao Lei.

Things wouldn't have turned out this way.

ah

Where are the people?

Unwilling to come

Black-hearted and rotten

Some patients refuse to see doctors.

Also pays the tax

Please stop cursing.

It's not like before when people tried to evade medical fees.

They even insulted the person and drove them away.

Why wouldn't they come?

You blame me

I'm saving money for this family.

I searched for my child all night.

Then he went to ask someone for help.

Can't you just let me have some peace and quiet?

Can't Mom and Dad argue outside?

We're really tired.

Okay, okay, you can sleep, Mom won't disturb you.

Is there anything to eat?

Give me a bite

I didn't eat dinner.

I was busy all night

You can't do it yourself.

I ate so well this morning

What are you thinking about? It's for your son.

Yours is in the pot

There was no soup.

One for each person

I eat the same food as you.

I searched all night last night

I still have to take them to the county town today.

My treatment is worse than that of livestock.

The livestock know to be fed before they work.

Hurry up and bring out our quilts to put on the cart.

Boil some more hot water to fill the water bladder.

There are many stones on the road

Children should not be jostled.

knew

Also, check the car.

Don't let it break down halfway.

Don't press down on it with your hand

Elevate your feet as well.

The county town is far away

We can't let them get hurt again.

They're the ones causing trouble.

They are the ones who enjoy the good life.

The person I searched for all night was me.

I'm the one asking for help.

I'm still pulling the cart today.

Okay, let's get going!

The clinic gets even more crowded later in the day.

knew

There are pebbles ahead, go around them.

Don't bounce Da Yong's arm.

Know

ah

Why do you look so pale?

Did not rush on the way

ah

Both sons were injured

All Yang cared about was whether they were in pain or not.

But from last night until now

No one has ever asked me if I'm tired.

Just say what's on your mind.

It has a mouth on its body, not just for eating.

Uncle Zhao

I want to take Xiaoyu to the back mountain.

What are we doing in the deep mountains?

Not deep in the mountains

That's where Xiao Yong and the others rolled down last night.

I think I saw a ginseng at that moment.

It was too dark to see clearly.

There were also two very large mushrooms nearby.

Could the large mushroom be Ganoderma lucidum?

I'm not sure.

So I want you to identify it.

Ginseng

Are you sure you didn't see wrong?

It can only be said to resemble

That place wasn't far from the foot of the mountain.

I'm also wondering how there could be.

Regardless of whether or not

We all need to go and see.

So many people last night

Has no one noticed?

Nobody mentioned it.

Even someone who truly recognizes someone won't shout it out on the spot.

Leave while you still can

Let's hurry up and go.

I also went there; I'd only ever seen things dug up before.

I really don't know what seedlings look like.

In case I picked some wild vegetables before

I have to admit it.

What about the pear blossoms?

Take her with you and keep her mouth shut.

Things that can't be said at home are never revealed to outsiders.

Uncle, I really can't guarantee it.

What if I just misread it?

If you're mistaken, just pretend the whole family went for a walk in the back hills.

Anyway, we're not going into the deep mountains.

Lead the way

Rain belt tools

Where did my older sister go for fun?

Digging for wild vegetables in the back mountain

Oh my god

You can also go and play with your friends in the village from time to time.

I don't want to play with them

They always ask us what we're doing in the prefectural city.

What to do at home

How do parents earn money?

They even tried to coax me with candy.

Just tell them secretly.

Some people even said that good friends shouldn't keep secrets from each other.

So what do you say?

I didn't say anything.

My older sister said

The family's money-making methods cannot be told to others.

They earned the money themselves.

Is our family going to run out of money again?

That's right

If you don't want to answer, just walk away.

Don't argue with them

I know they always treat me like a fool.

I'm not stupid.

It seems there are quite a few people keeping an eye on our family.

We need to be more careful when our children go out in the future.

Let's go

Slow down, there's a pit here.

Pear Blossom's dad will carry you over.

Light rain is here.

This is what I saw last night.

It is ginseng

These leaves don't look particularly special.

The ginseng below is truly valuable.

About 15 years

Dad, stay away

I need to dig slowly from the outside.

Only roots that are intact are valuable.

ah

ah

Oh, my ginseng!

no

You're running so fast just to crash into a tree?

Doing my daughter

Your hand is really steady!

Even after chasing it like that, it didn't break.

It's not that my hand is steady.

It's tough.

Xiaoyu is truly a rare and precious herb.

Should we pick them now?

This thing doesn't look good either.

How come it's so valuable?

Not that big

Another half month

No one picks them now.

This means those people did see it last night.

I just don't recognize it.

Ah, then let's keep it and raise it.

There's a patch of hazel mushrooms here.

They dug up chicken stew with mushrooms for dinner.

Alright

I used to run into the mountains alone.

You must have suffered a lot.

Mother is gone

Besides, aren't we alone now?

Walk home

Mom will cook you delicious food.

Slow down, you bumped Da Yong's arm again.

Stop, stop, stop, my stomach hurts.

Go quickly and come back quickly.

Let's go

Head of household

What if Dayong really breaks a bone?

I brought enough silver.

It's possible that Xiao Lei didn't provide any subsidies later.

We can't just sit around and do nothing.

Severing ties doesn't mean you have to keep saying you want to.

Who's to blame now?

I'll make this clear first.

Don't go there anymore.

If you keep dawdling...

We couldn't even reach the county town before dark.

What do you think I want?

I drank cold water on an empty stomach last night.

Cold water again early in the morning

If I don't have an upset stomach, who will?

You can't even boil water yourself, and you're blaming me?

No, wait.

Xiao Ping, come back here!

I really can't push you anymore, you do it.

Waste, I knew you'd be like this

I'll take my child there myself.

Even livestock know to be fed first before working.

I didn't eat last night.

A pot of rice in the morning

We still have to follow along.

I'm treated worse than livestock in this family.

Hahaha

Um

Mother, slow down.

The car was about to overturn

I know you can lie still.

As the head of the household, lend a helping hand from the side.

They were the ones who caused the trouble.

They were lying in the car.

In the end, I was the one who suffered all the pain.

Let the child see it first before eating.

I need something hot.

Otherwise I really couldn't hold on.

After my doctor's appointment, I went to the intersection to get a bowl of hot noodles.

ah

Who will see a doctor?

No, it's my two sons.

He rolled down the mountain last night.

One foot is swollen

An arm hit a tree

pain

Sprain without broken bones

I'll walk less and rest for a few days.

That's good, that's good.

It hurts here

Here

It doesn't hurt that much

No bones were broken.

It's a sprain.

I apply the topical medication daily.

Don't lift heavy objects until you're fully recovered.

Don't put your arm down while sleeping.

Thank you, doctor.

Your complexion is worse than theirs.

Why not take a look?

I don't need to drink cold water, otherwise I'll get an upset stomach.

I'll just go back and drink some hot water.

Then avoid contact with cold water.

Remember

The child is clearly fine.

It costs 300 coins.

The doctors in the county town are really ripping people off.

You should say less.

Dr. Chen from the village no longer sees us.

If you offend the people in the county again

Who should I contact if I get sick in the future?

Old Chen is just petty.

The medicine he prescribed was cheap.

But his character isn't very good.

It was cheap because he didn't make any money off the villagers.

Sometimes they even pay out of pocket.

Now they won't take our jobs.

What right do we have to complain?

Xiao Ping, are you deliberately picking a fight today?

Parents, please stop arguing.

We are hungry

Can we find something to eat first?

What do you want to eat?

Isn't there a noodle stall up ahead?

Let's have a bowl of noodles.

Dad also said he wanted something hot.

My son still knows how to care for himself.

Four bowls of vegetarian noodles

Two bowls with poached eggs

Take two bowls

Who else could it be?

The two children were injured.

Of course, they should be compensated.

Well, at least I can have a bowl of hot noodles.

He is satisfied

Eat quickly, don't burn yourself.

When we get home, Mom will cook you something delicious again.

Finally, I can have a hot meal.

You make it sound like I'm abusing you.

I misspoke. (Eating doesn't involve arguing.)

After you finish eating, go get some meat.

I'll kill the chickens at home tomorrow or the day after.

Whatever, the money is in your hands anyway.

Right now I just want to sit a little longer.

The road back to the village is so far.

In the end, I was the one pushing the cart.

The beating that Da Yong and his gang got away with was just like that.

Otherwise, they would run up the mountain themselves.

He fell down by himself.

But if Xiao Lei hadn't attacked them first...

They can run

Mother, I've already told you.

Xiao Lei is protected by Fifth Brother.

Don't bother him again.

Being brothers means being loyal and righteous.

Our money is almost gone.

What will you use to get married and build a house in the future?

We'll talk about the future later.

Once we've recovered

Let's discuss with Fifth Brother if there are any other ways to make money.

I just hope the house can be quiet for a few days.

I left in a hurry this morning

The livestock haven't been fed yet.

An injured hand

A twisting foot

The whole village went up the mountain in the middle of the night.

Acting impulsively

My brain isn't enough either.

If you keep spoiling them like this

They can truly become pillars of the family in the future.

She is usually capable

He forgets everything else when he's with his son.

A doting mother often spoils her son.

There's definitely some truth to that.

What I least want to admit is

Compared to my two precious sons

Xiao Luo is indeed capable of many things.

Without parents to protect me

These two might not be able to support themselves.

Be careful of soil particles in front.

knew

You guys rest

I'll go cook.

It's good to keep Mom busy.

So as not to think about my past

How much hardship did I endure digging for medicinal herbs in the mountains?

Ginseng that can grow for 15 years at the foot of Dad Mountain

There must be some good stuff in the deep mountains.

Xiao Lei and I will go in and take a look tomorrow.

Don't even think about it.

You're not tempted?

Even if you're moved, you can't risk your life for it.

There are wolves and wild boars in the deep mountains.

Your mother knows I let you in.

They can skin me alive

Mother can still control you

I'll listen to your mother now.

Our family isn't short of money.

Eat whatever you want and wear whatever you want

Affordable in both county town and prefectural town

There's no need to risk your life for a few medicinal herbs.

Father is right.

Making money is important

But now the family is not short of money.

There's no need to gamble with your life for more money.

Big sister, what is this?

Flying Ball

Mom came too, so the four of us made a perfect plate.

This is so boring.

It's better to play cards

Mom, let's play another round.

Hibernation is so long

We can't keep Pear Blossom cooped up in the house all the time.

In a few years, it will be time for them to learn to read and write.

Let her have some fun first.

Make up for all the lessons I missed during my trip.

Shouldn't you be hibernating in winter, sir?

Others can

You can't.

Dad, study hard.

Didn't you say that reading is useful?

Daughter, don't sprinkle salt on it.

Pear blossoms are still small

Happiness will only last a few years.

When they get older

Then I noticed that she likes practicing calligraphy and drawing.

Or something else?

Learn what you like

Honey, look how cute our kid is lately!

chubby

I spent almost 2 liang (100 grams) on meat and sugar in just half a month.

Not counting the eggs and vegetables at home

They've even killed two chickens.

How could it not be good-looking?

Eat like this every day

I could gain weight too.

What do you mean?

Dislike the child eating too much

I don't mean to complain, I just wanted to ask about my family.

How much silver do we have left?

The expenses over the past two weeks have indeed

It's not a small amount anymore.

How much silver is left in the house?

What do you mean?

I feel bad if my child eats even a few more bites.

Xiao Ping, you heartless bastard!

Can we please stop arguing?

You know best how much our family has.

There's no significant income right now.

If you keep spending like this

There is a real emergency

I can't even find a place to borrow money.

They suffered so much recently.

I just wanted to give them some nourishment.

Half a month's supply is not enough

Da Yong and Qiang Zi, don't mention marriage in two years.

Dowry for building a house

Which one is free?

The injury has healed

What should we think about next?

Bring their brains back to normal

He calls me Fifth Brother every day

Believe whatever people say

If you really get sold out, you'll be counting the money for the seller.

You're right

Zhao Jianwu clearly disliked them that day.

They even felt that others treated them like brothers.

So let's persuade them slowly.

Let them know who the real family is.

How come it's so fast?

It's not interesting.

They don't let us play.

My sister-in-law is busy.

Um

People who used to be able to sit down and chat for a while

Now that you see me

It always seems like they're deliberately avoiding

Why should we offend anyone?

They all looked at them like they were plague carriers.

You're only realizing it now?

The Zhao family is now leading the villagers to make money.

The village chief turned to them again.

Needless to say, Dr. Chen

The most influential people in the village

We've offended them all.

If something really happens after that...

Who will help us?

That's why I said we should save money.

Now running all over the village

I'm afraid I won't be able to borrow even a few coins.

You're right, sir.

There's not much work to do in the fields lately.

The weather hasn't gotten too cold yet.

Why don't you go to the county town and find some work?

What

You said you'd save as much as you could, even if it's just a little bit.

Now is the perfect time to go.

I'll come back when it snows.

Earn as much as you can

I was just advising you not to buy meat for your child every day.

How did things turn into me going out to work?

Stop dawdling, I'll pack your clothes.

I'm leaving tomorrow morning.

If we delay a few more days, it will get even colder.

If it's not the pigs and chickens at home, who cares about the work in the fields?

My child and I are at home.

You can focus on making money.

Don't waste your money.

Give them to me for safekeeping when you get back.

What did I say wrong?

How did you manage to get yourself into this mess?

Save money on the road

Go to the county town and find work first

Don't stay in expensive places

knew

besides

Don't start indulging in excessive eating and drinking as soon as you earn a little money.

The two children in the family will be counting on you to get married in the future.

I left because I wanted to spend less money.

In the end, I ended up leaving home to earn money.

My parents are gone.

Yes, your father did this for the family.

So that you can go out and suffer

You guys need to live up to expectations from now on, you know?

Know

Mother, rest assured

We will definitely take good care of you and Dad from now on.

As long as my two sons are successful in the future

It's all worth it for my husband and me to endure this hardship now.

Dad, let's play shuttlecock.

Ha ha

Hahaha

Pear Blossom, Dad has a lot of schoolwork today.

You went to play with your older sister

My older sister just said she was busy.

Then go find Sister Chunmiao.

Bring someone with you

I'm going then.

Why

Pear blossoms

Went to play with Chunmiao

Xiaoyu, you need to talk to him.

Stop bothering me to play shuttlecock every day.

I'm such a steady, mature man

What does it look like jumping around in the yard?

You were playing quite enthusiastically the last few times, weren't you?

One or two times is for playing

Kicking someone every day is called playing with a monkey.

Pear Blossom is willing to play with you

It's with you, dear

If you're busy, just say so.

Lie to her that she has a lot of schoolwork to do

Why didn't you accompany me?

His toys

Which one wasn't created by me?

I see you've been quite free lately.

Or maybe Dad will find you some trouble.

Learn to embroider and make clothes

Recite the virtues of women again

Your parents dislike the needlework you and Aunt Li did.

They're going to make me relearn...

What nonsense are you talking about, you little brat?

Zhao Dashu, who did you just say was idle?

I just said it casually.

After the light rains of autumn, when is there a leisurely day?

Go out and earn money

Even after going home, there are still so many things to do.

I finally got a few days off, and you're bothering me?

Babies, thank you all for liking to dress up as a peasant girl.

Raising kids and farming is so much fun!

Exciting plot

The next season is currently in rapid production.

More exciting things to come!

Remember to click to reserve and add to your favorites!

I tell you

Our daughter has suffered enough in the past.

From now on, she can do whatever she wants.

Stop trying to pressure her with those ridiculous rules.

Mom, Dad and I were just joking around.

What's wrong?

Hmph, nothing much

I just don't like him today.

Wife, I know I was wrong.

What do you know?

Really know

Lately, I've been either studying or hanging out with my buddies.

Indeed, he has been neglecting his family more.

I will definitely change it in the future.

I feel like my father understands things...

What my mother said was completely different from what I was saying.

Anyway, don't force me anymore.

Xiaoyu did work she didn't want to do.

I know, I know

I'll listen to you.

Why did Mom get up so late today? She's not feeling well.

I didn't sleep well last night.

Um

Pear blossoms

I went to find Chunmei to play Ludo.

There's rice warming up in the pot for you.

I'll eat with you all at noon.

Make him admit his mistake

He really did misunderstand the meaning of "改" (gǎi).

This rascal

So many dishes

We can't possibly finish it all.

There were over 100 kilograms of [something] on the vehicle.

First time selling

Don't pull too much

Nobody buys it.

Can it be pushed back?

That's what I think too.

People in the county town don't farm much land.

We still need to buy groceries for winter.

Let's test this car first.

The scale can be read

I specifically studied it yesterday.

It's indispensable to others.

I can't let anyone fool me.

ah

Slow down on the way home

First time selling vegetables in the county town

If you can't sell them, come back sooner.

Don't keep dragging it out.

I understand, I'll go test the waters first.

I originally thought selling vegetables in the city would be easy.

But once I got here, I realized...

I have no idea where to go.

Where are the most people?

Where are street vendors allowed?

How much should the vegetables cost?

The old man asked where in the city he could set up a vegetable stall.

There is a vegetable market in the morning.

However, you have to pay a booth fee to get in.

Um

Your first time here

You can also push the cart along the east side

Selling goods in a densely populated alley

How much do cabbages and radishes usually cost?

Yesterday I bought it for one coin per pound.

There are 13 coins and two catties.

Your vegetables are growing well.

It might be more expensive at the farmers' market.

More than 100 kilograms of vegetables

If they were all replaced with copper coins

It's much better than leaving it to rot in the ground.

Thank you, sir.

Hurry up and go sell vegetables, you have to get there early.

A grown man stood on the street hawking his wares.

This is the first time I've ever done something like this.

Selling cabbages and radishes!

Selling Chinese cabbage

Selling radishes!

Will this cabbage sell?

Selling for one coin per pound

Cabbage and radish are the same.

Buy more and get a discount

Buy 10 jin and I'll give you an extra jin free.

I need 10 jin of cabbage and radish.

Would you give me 12 jin?

Cheng, you are the first guest today.

I'll buy more after I've eaten well.

Cabbage and radish

The harvest was just from our own land.

Your cabbage is indeed very fresh.

Weigh out two more for me.

Okay

Young man, do you still want these vegetable leaves?

Don't give me

Take it if you want.

It can still be eaten after washing.

Can you really turn what you grow into money?

ah

City dwellers have to pay for all their vegetables.

There are still so many in the field

There hasn't been much heavy work in the village lately.

You can make money by selling it again.

Open more land next year

Various types of cabbage and radish

If Dazhuzi stops studying

Come into the city with me.

A stall

A street vendor

Raise more pigs and chickens at home

Eggs can be exchanged for money

In the past, I always felt that making money required a big shot to lend a hand.

Only now do I realize

The land beneath one's feet

As long as you're willing to plant, sell, and speak up...

It can also turn into real copper coins to take home.

ah

Sold out

Sell ​​them all, let's get up early tomorrow morning.

Pick more and go

How much

Why

The 117 yuan item also included over ten kilograms of other items, which were given as a gift with any extra purchase.

Or could we have more?

A pound can really sell for one coin

City dwellers have to buy everything

The vegetables from our field aren't worth much in the village.

Impel Down is money

Everything left over from that field can be sold.

able

I want to clear more wasteland next year.

There are many kinds of cabbage and radish.

Raise more chickens

Add two more pigs

If you can collect 10 eggs a day

You can earn a lot of money in a month.

If the big pig doesn't go to school next year

Let him go into the city with you.

A guard car

A street vendor

That's what I think too.

The second son, Liu's family, will help you.

The third child is still young.

Do whatever you can

Our family can't always be watching others make money.

Things that grow on our own land

You can gradually accumulate a fortune.

Second brother, your eldest brother also lives in the county town.

They definitely didn't grow vegetables.

You go to the city every day

Could you also bring them some cabbage and radishes?

daughter

I took it to sell for money.

If the older brother wants to eat, he can buy it himself.

He is the Master

My daughter is enjoying a life of luxury in the Qian family again.

Where do you need my little bit of food?

The head of the household is exhausted after a long day.

Drink water in the house first

I'll just say one thing.

Why are they all giving me attitude?

The old woman came back

The second child finally managed to earn some money on his own.

Stop thinking about what's in his field.

I was also thinking

The eldest brother has to spend money on everything in the city.

If you don't have money, you'll naturally find your own way.

Stop worrying about it.

After the family split

One or two of them have become very temperamental.

All the money used to be in my hands.

Who dares to talk to me like that?

They've already split it.

What's the point of saying all this?

You should really watch your mouth.

I just can't feel at ease.

Ruxin didn't come back once or twice.

Sooner or later someone will see through the trick.

When the village finds out she's a concubine

What face do we have left?

The truth will out.

We'll keep it a secret for as long as we can.

The eldest brother is now hiding in the county town again.

The more you don't show your face

The more others try to guess

What should we do then?

We can't keep saying "I'm sick" every holiday, can we?

Why

What else can we do?

The path he chose

We can't even see anyone now.

Go and call the second brother.

What happened again?

Don't ask them about picking vegetables tomorrow morning.

You should get up early and lend a hand too.

father

Is something wrong with my older brother again?

sit

Dazhu's matter

What are your plans?

Dazhu doesn't care about anything except studying.

What could possibly happen?

Next year I'll really make Dazhu drop out of school and sell vegetables with me.

I'm afraid the house will be turned upside down.

I wasn't asking about studying.

What exactly did Dad want to say?

I don't understand.

I mean, the big pillar isn't small anymore.

Xiaoyu is already engaged.

Shouldn't we order one for him first?

Zhao Di has just been decided.

I originally planned to talk about it next year.

Besides, Dazhuzi's mind is now completely occupied with studying.

I then proposed to him that we get married.

He's probably going to get angry with me.

Did you ever consider how long Ruxin's affair could be kept secret?

If the village finds out she's a concubine next year...

Would your daughter's family still be willing to arrange a marriage with us?

What my father said makes sense.

You can sell vegetables now

The family owns land and houses

Before the news spreads...

Finding a decent girl isn't difficult.

father

You'll know if you look at Zhao Di.

What's my reputation like in the village?

Even decent families might not look favorably upon Da Zhu.

Zhao Di got married.

Big Pillar is different from marrying into a family.

It doesn't matter if the daughter-in-law's family is poor; she must be a good person.

It would be even better if the bride's family could help.

I'll go back and discuss it with Mrs. Li.

But don't let Dazhuzi know about this first.

He's recently been worrying about whether he can continue his studies next year.

The whole person was tense

Suddenly, another marriage proposal was arranged.

I'm afraid he'll think we're planning to drop him out of school.

That's why I let you meet first.

I'll tell him if there's someone suitable.

The family's reputation is declining day by day.

If you can secure a place first, then secure it.

I'll go back and discuss it with Mrs. Li.

How should I bring this up with the Li family?

daughter

eavesdropping on his son

Have you no shame?

It's just about finding a wife for Dazhuzi.

Is there anything you can't let me know?

Grandson getting married

My breast milk can't give me advice anymore.

I'm afraid you'll gossip.

The whole village knew about it before anything was even started.

There are still quite a few people in the village who laugh at us.

Don't follow

I actually have someone in mind, old man.

who

My nephew's daughter

What you've seen

Good-looking

And exceptionally capable

You mean that person who can eat a whole pot of rice in one meal?

Being able to eat is a blessing

One person can do half the farm work.

Big butt

Looks like she's easy to give birth to

Marrying the second son will reduce a lot of the work the couple does.

Forget it.

Her meal was equivalent to someone else's entire family's meal.

Our family can afford it.

His face was bigger than a washbasin, how could a pillar possibly be interested?

Being fat is a sign of good fortune.

How many villages are there in the surrounding area?

How can a girl grow up to be so strong?

Strong is strong

He also has a strong appetite.

Your older brother invited me to stay for dinner last time.

His face turned green when he sat down at the table.

Hmph, I'll really marry him.

We need to calculate how much food we need to feed him each day.

If you're capable, just eat something.

Even if you have ten or eight great-grandchildren in the future, you'll still complain.

No matter how capable she is, can she be as capable as an ox?

Really for the sake of work

I'd rather buy a cow.

Cows only eat grass

You just look down on my family.

I don't want to mess with Dazhuzi.

Don't even think about it.

What makes you think he's bad?

I think it's good in every way.

No means no.

You dare to arrange marriages recklessly?

The second son and his wife will be the first to get angry with you.

Don't even think about this marriage.

If Dad really said that, Mom would tell Dazhu.

The house is going to explode again.

I can't stand seeing him once or twice a year.

You still want to marry her and see her every day?

They are not fussy about details

Able to eat and capable

The first thing you see upon entering is labor.

I tell you

If you dare to actually try to match them up

I'll take you back to Old Sun's house.

I accept that you've ruined my life.

Stop messing with my grandson.

Oh, so you've never been interested in me all these years.

You dislike my family.

And by the way, do you also dislike me?

I'm talking about Dazhu's marriage.

Why are you bringing yourself up?

Why don't you take a piss and look at yourself in the mirror?

His old face was as white as tree bark.

hunchback

I'm willing to spend my whole life with you.

It's already a sign that your ancestors' graves are emitting auspicious smoke.

You get the hell out of here!

Just go

I'll ask the second brother myself.

He and Li were willing

It's none of your business.

Don't go out and embarrass yourself when you come back.

Just told me to get out

Now I'm late again.

My niece is capable

Another relative

If she really marries into the family

Not only can help with housework

And you can have more family members around you.

What's there to be afraid of if you can eat?

The Zhao family isn't starving anymore.

There is a real shortage of food

At worst, we can think of more solutions later.

I must make this marriage a reality.

Mother came like this

It's never good news.

What happened to Mom?

I have something to discuss with you two.

Didn't Dazhuzi want to see his wife?

How is my maternal grandniece?

Which one is Mother referring to?

Hmph, my family is the luckiest.

The fattest one

cough cough

Mother, please stop making a fuss.

Where did this commotion happen?

She is capable and fertile.

You all walk in with ease and big butts

He looks like he'll be able to add a new member to our Zhao family.

Big Pillar likes good-looking people.

What's wrong with my grandniece?

daughter

Her face is so big

Eyes just a slit

I always get pimples on my face

Big pillars no longer picky

You can't force it on him.

Men choose wives based on looks, as if looks can feed them; but she can be capable.

She is capable

But she can eat.

His frame was as large as a pillar.

I'm afraid I might put too much pressure on someone at night and cause them health problems.

And she gets angry when she's not full.

If you really marry him

How much grain should our family prepare each day?

You two are exactly the same.

It would ruin my family.

I didn't waste

My uncle has been good to us all these years.

I also gave them plenty of filial piety during holidays.

But one thing is one thing.

Don't just because you're a good relative

Use your son to do favors for the rest of your life

What makes that girl unworthy of him?

Mother, if I dare to go and propose this marriage to the head of the manor today...

Do you believe he could turn on me right away?

He's practically obsessed with studying now.

Tell him again that he wants to marry someone he doesn't like.

He probably doesn't even want to go home.

Da Yong

You've wasted all those years of loving you.

You heartless bastard!

Dazhu's marriage arrangements haven't even started yet.

Their own family is already in chaos.

A mother should not act impulsively.

Let's see if this causes something even bigger.

Mom, please calm down.

We'll see about the marriage later.

Stop arguing with Dad.

snort

Hey, how's it going?

The second son is willing to marry into your family.

The lucky one didn't.

Stop being so sarcastic.

I told you so!

You insist on going out and embarrassing yourself.

I can't stay in this house anymore.

If you want to leave, then leave.

He left and then returned half a day later carrying his bundle.

If I don't want to come back, then I don't want to come back.

He couldn't stay at the Sun family's house.

I can't find the eldest son's house in the county town.

Where else can he go?

In less than half a day

You have to come back the way you left.

Today, first, my own mother proposed marriage.

Crying and fussing again

This is giving me a real headache!

Don't take what Nian Niang just said to heart.

She just acts on a whim.

I'm not angry.

Mother was also doing it for Dazhu's own good.

It's just that they think too highly of their own daughter.

The head of the household said it would strengthen the family ties.

What do you think of my niece from my maternal family?

Good-looking

She's not fat.

Efficient and sweet-talking

Can we please stop choosing from our own families?

You don't like him

If we don't make things clear today...

My future wife will definitely still remember me.

I don't dislike him because he's poor.

It's not that I dislike his appearance.

I've seen him privately berate his sister.

He ordered people to work with a dark face.

Turning around, I saw my elders

He immediately pulled his younger sister close and kissed her affectionately.

It's like nothing happened.

Is that true?

I saw it with my own eyes

One-faced

A set of things behind people's backs

She's also very good at talking.

Such a person coming into our house

Today we're talking about our second oldest.

Tomorrow we'll talk about how we cheated the third brother.

The big pillar was blown by her pillow again

The three brothers can still live in peace

But she is indeed shrewd.

I'm just worried that Dazhu will suffer in the future.

I want to find him a wife who knows how to handle things.

Shrewdness is possible

We cannot use shrewdness and cunning

Besides, she's your niece.

After entering the door

She did something wrong.

Should you discipline them or not?

She argued with Dazhu.

Will you side with your son or your niece from your maternal family?

There's a man in our village who married his own niece.

The young couple finally argued

The bride's family also made a fuss.

Originally good relatives have become enemies.

Why bother?

Well, forget about him.

Whom did you take a fancy to?

Whom do we value but are useless?

We still have to be valued by others.

I don't mind if my family is poor or rich.

A girl must be diligent and capable

If the big pillar later digs for food in the ground

Marry a delicate girl

The couple couldn't make ends meet.

They also have to be filial.

We'll take care of our elder brother in our old age.

Don't be too fierce or too competitive.

Not only must they be capable and filial

One should not be too strong-willed.

Um

Big Pillar was always a big man.

Marry a strong-willed woman again

The two of them are always at odds.

Can we still get by?

It's so soft!

I'm also worried that he won't be able to manage the household.

You still expect him to manage the big pillar?

Hmph, don't you know what our own son is like?

He's definitely keeping the money in his own hands; he's also very ambitious.

I have many ideas.

Things might be more stable after getting married.

What if he ends up like his father?

I can't pass the exam.

He just hoped his son would fulfill his dream.

No way, that would kill me!

So don't interfere with them after you get married.

Let's have the matchmaker take a look first.

Diligent, capable and filial

Don't be too soft-hearted

Don't be too shrewish.

What will happen to Cheng Ke's schooling next year?

It was agreed that whoever learns best will continue studying.

There's always a way when you reach the mountain.

Providing for three is truly unaffordable.

Three sons

Big Pillar had the best grades

Three pillars are the worst

But it's precisely the one thing I'm most reluctant to give up.

It's the smallest one again.

When the day comes to fulfill the promise

The three children will likely not be at peace.

She's going to the third brother's house.

His face was drawn so long

Anyone who didn't know better would think they were going to have a fight.

The son I used to look down on the most

The richest person now

It would be upsetting for anyone in that situation.

What I put in my bundle was not...

What clothes were made for the third wife?

Instead, it's just a few of my own clothes.

The old master and madam have arrived.

Which old lady

Go find the lady

The old house

What's my mom doing here?

The old lady said she wants to live here from now on.

I'm not going back to the old house.

What

My mother is no pushover.

Please don't run into my wife first.

daughter

Third brother

This doesn't look like a visit.

Is she really planning to stay here?

Mom, did you have a fight with Dad?

More than just arguing

That old man doesn't treat me like a human being at all.

I can't stand staying in the old house for even a day longer.

Mother, please speak slowly and have a seat.

I don't sit

You tell your mother first.

Does this family even have a mother to eat?

Third son, your mother has come to seek refuge with you.

Your father wishes I would leave immediately.

Why would you stop me?

The second son was even more heartless and rotten.

I had such a big argument with your dad

He didn't even open the door.

daughter

I was asking if my second brother knew you had passed away.

He no longer sees me as his mother.

He forgot his mother after getting married

Your older brother is

Your second brother is also...

Third son, now all I have left is you, Mom.

Grandma said she had no one to care for her.

Why not mention how she managed things before?

Others are controlling to the point of suffocation.

One more cup or two?

Your cup is way too small.

Not satisfied with drinking it

My mother's life is so hard.

In his youth, he worked like a slave for the Zhao family.

Your dad scolded you

Your dad beat you

It wasn't easy raising her three sons.

When you get old, you can't rely on anyone.

daughter

So you're planning to stay with me for a few days?

Go back after you've calmed down.

I'm determined not to reply this time.

I'll live with you from now on.

daughter

Dad can't do without someone by his side.

I'll take you back.

Let's talk to him together.

Let the second son serve you

Isn't he capable?

Your house is so big

Doesn't even my mother have a room?

If it really doesn't work

I shared a room with the servants.

Send them away quickly

It's not that there's no house

I'm just worried that Dad will panic if he can't find you.

He'd love for me to die out there.

Mother shouldn't say it like that.

Third son

Do you also find me annoying?

How can a mother dislike her son?

When I left

The second son's door was tightly shut.

I wonder what they were doing inside during the day with Li.

They don't even care whether their own mother lives or dies.

Mother, don't say such things to outsiders.

Second brother and second sister-in-law heard

How am I supposed to face people after this?

Let me tell you.

Don't tell me either

Mother knew she had a bad temper.

But this time I really want to

Find a place to stay

Don't worry, I won't argue with your wife.

It has nothing to do with your family.

Dad, please talk to Grandma.

I'm going to tidy up a room.

Mother and son's home is your home.

Let's settle in first.

But let's talk this out.

Don't scare the children anymore.

Don't get angry with the Song family.

Good mother, I'll listen to you.

The mother only knew that of her three sons

You are still the most reliable and filial.

Why have I never had this question before?

Now that the eldest and second eldest brothers can't be relied upon...

You just remembered me.

Little Rain really wants you to stay breastfed

Stay for a few days

Mother, don't worry

Grandpa is still in the old house

Grandma couldn't possibly abandon Grandpa.

But what if she doesn't leave?

Then we'll find a way to make him want to go back on his own.

Milk is very smart

Now my uncles can't be relied on.

On the contrary, he wouldn't dare to completely offend our family.

Hopefully.

Clean up the room next to mine for him

Closer to us

This will also prevent others from saying that we are mistreating the elderly.

Third brother, after I finished talking to you...

Mother felt much more at ease.

How could I not feel comfortable?

All my grime has come to me.

Is Mom tired?

Why don't we take a break first?

I'm not tired, just seeing you makes me happy.

I never realized before how well my daughter and I got along.

We can talk about anything.

Before, your heart was full of thoughts about your eldest and second eldest brothers.

Where is there room for me?

You're busy with your own things

I went back inside to check.

Which room does Xiaoyu stay in?

I'll take you there

If you're not satisfied with anything, we'll change it.

ah

These were all prepared for me.

Temporarily packed

What do you think, Grandma?

I'm extremely satisfied.

This house is even better than the main house of the old mansion.

The third son is the most promising.

Xiaoyu is now very efficient, just like your mother.

Haven't seen you for a while

Xiaoyu has grown taller again.

His appearance is becoming more and more handsome

That kid Xiao Lei isn't good enough for you.

It's already difficult to find a son-in-law who will live with his wife's family.

Even fewer people with no relatives or friends are honest.

Being obedient and capable is enough.

What to do about my daughter?

Let's see if my second uncle comes looking for me tonight.

If they come, then take the opportunity to persuade Grandma to return to the old house.

What if she refuses?

Look at what he did just now.

They are extremely satisfied with our home.

I'd be even more reluctant to leave if I stayed for two days.

What about Grandpa's side?

No milk available

He's not used to it, is he?

Your grandpa is responsive to gentleness but not to force.

Your grandma won't admit her mistake.

He'd rather endure it alone.

They won't come to pick you up.

Does this mean Mother will really have to live here forever?

Otherwise, it would be inconvenient for her to do anything at home.

The most important thing is

If she saw us, she shouldn't...

Things to let outsiders know

I can turn around and tell my dad and older brother.

My daughter tried her best to think

You absolutely have to make sure your mother is willing to walk.

Parents, you say...

If the milk knew us

Find a new way to make money

Will she immediately return to the old house to report the news?

You want to tell others about the river gourd?

Of course not

I mean ginseng and lingzhi.

Things on the mountain

Not going into the deep mountains

It means going up the mountain to find mushrooms.

We were indeed in a while ago

Ginseng and Ganoderma were found at the foot of the mountain.

It's not exactly a scam.

After the milk found out

They definitely wanted Grandpa and Second Uncle to...

They also went to try their luck.

This can be achieved.

Your grandma can't stand it when we're not together.

I knew this morning

I reckon I won't even make it to the afternoon before I have to go back and claim credit.

He really managed to coax his mother away.

The things on the mountain aren't ours.

She can look for it whenever she wants.

Finding even one in a year is considered incredibly lucky.

Let's go to the main room first.

It's easy for Dad to make Grandma leave.

What are some good ways to deal with pear blossoms?

Put a snake in the milk house

Our house is located behind the mountain.

Isn't it normal to have snakes in your house?

This is more reliable than ginseng.

Milk is most afraid of snakes

I used to dislike even going to gather pig feed.

I'm just afraid of snakes crawling out of the grass.

Pear Blossom, how did you come up with this?

Grandma was scared and frightened her once.

She wouldn't dare stay there anymore.

Rat snakes are not venomous

It shouldn't scare you into anything bad happening.

At most, I'll let out a couple of howls.

Then use this one.

Once and for all

You three, hahaha

Why

You don't want to

It's not me who's thinking.

I've eaten so many snakes

Why didn't I think of sending a few to Xiao Ping's house before?

Don't send it now.

My grandma was just scared by a snake.

The Xiao family also had a snake incident soon.

A smart person would know immediately that this is wrong.

Let's talk about it in the spring.

Okay, I'll catch two more.

First catch the non-toxic ones.

Don't actually hurt anyone.

Our values ​​are compatible and we can get along well.

Big Tree eats this at night

My daughter is hard to come

Of course we need to eat well.

What does he mean? He thinks I won't stay for more than a few days?

The meat is stewed until it's very tender.

Eat more if you like it

Why is the white rice porridge sweet?

Added some brown sugar

It tastes really bad.

The third family

Give me another bowl of brown sugar porridge.

I want another bowl.

Has Mom eaten enough?

I've never eaten so heartily in my life.

Get up and walk around to aid digestion

I ate too much and can't get up.

It was precisely because they were too full that people came.

Help the old lady walk slowly in the yard for an hour.

one hour

It will only take me fifteen minutes to walk.

Walked for so long

I'm hungry again soon.

This meal wasn't for nothing.

Milk interprets digestion as simply removing food.

Listen to me

This meal you ate was almost equivalent to two or three of your usual meals.

Don't walk

Having an upset stomach at night is even worse.

Third brother, I'm hungry.

You have to cook me noodles tonight.

You also have to poach the eggs.

Let's finish first.

Where are my parents?

ran away

Where did you go?

I went to call him back for dinner.

He said he wouldn't be coming back.

No one will starve if he eats one less meal tonight.

The woman in charge really packed her bags and left.

Where can she go?

The arguments used to revolve around the same few things.

After dinner, we split up to look for it.

Sleeping won't kill him.

Didn't your mother go to the third son's house this afternoon?

Carrying a bundle

I thought it was to deliver clothes to the third brother.

Let's go take a look.

The old man is missing

It would be unreasonable not to go.

Finally, I can have a full meal

They even forced me to walk.

What kind of filial son is this?

Daddy is afraid you'll overeat.

I'm perfectly healthy.

I could eat half a chicken again.

Third brother

They've finally come to pick me up!

If they don't come soon, I'll start to doubt myself.

The old house left my mother with me.

Mother, what are you doing?

Leg discomfort

Walking aids digestion

The third brother said I could hold on.

They insisted I walk for an hour.

You said I finally got a full meal

What if I get hungry while walking?

Third brother

Mother really intends to stay here with you

He said he wasn't going back to the old house.

I tried to persuade them for a long time, but it was no use.

Dad didn't ask anything that night.

I went to sleep right after eating.

We searched all the places Mom usually goes, but we couldn't find her.

I later found out from the neighbors that he came to your house.

Then you should quickly try to persuade them.

Mother, it's getting late.

Come back with us

Dad isn't used to being home alone.

He'd love for me to leave if I didn't reply.

I'll be living at the third brother's house from now on.

daughter

Don't you have to pick and sell vegetables tomorrow morning?

Get out of here and don't delay your money-making.

Mother, why don't you go back?

Dad is getting old.

There always needs to be someone around.

He has hands and feet

What do you two sons mean to you?

I'm not replying anyway.

Why

My third brother's wife will stay at your house for a few days.

Wait until she calms down

I'll come back to pick you up.

become

I tried my best to take care of

With your words

The second brother was relieved.

Really let Mother live here

It's warm at my third brother's house.

They eat well and have servants to wait on them.

If Dad misses Mom

Let's send Dad here too.

Too

Our house will be as cold as an icebox in winter.

Parents are enjoying a comfortable life with their third brother.

It saves us a lot of trouble.

The most important thing is to cook one less meal.

Lately we've been getting up early every day to pick vegetables.

Who has time to argue with their mother?

We can bring them back when the weather gets warmer.

The fields will be busy then

She can also lend a hand

Third brother, can I go back inside now?

Of course!

Can I still have a bowl of noodles?

After walking for so long

I'm a little hungry

Mother, I heard the doctor in the prefectural city say that...

Many health problems are caused by what we eat.

Taking a walk after a meal is beneficial.

It's best not to eat anything before bed.

You've eaten quite a lot tonight.

Get used to it slowly

Just say you don't want to feed me.

Why go through all that trouble?

I did it for your health.

This meal tonight is enough for several of your usual meals.

I'd really like two more bowls of noodles.

I feel unwell at night and have to call a doctor.

Okay, okay, I won't eat anymore.

It didn't even last a day.

He also said he would listen to me from now on.

The old house is the perfect place for you.

Got it

The two rat snakes were not venomous.

One of them is enough for your grandma to scream until the sky falls.

You make two

One placed inside the house

A courtyard

Two-pronged approach

So that he can find another place to sleep

Can I make snake soup after I finish cooking?

Can

snort

You two

Don't sleep too soundly tonight.

You have a loud, childlike voice.

Especially pear blossoms

Don't be startled awake right after falling asleep.

I have already spoken to the servants.

No matter how noisy it is in the main courtyard tonight, don't come in.

To avoid being exposed by too many people

My daughter is so thoughtful.

hey-hey

Mother, please don't blame your son for being unfilial.

You can't live here by yourself.

It's better than me having to ask you to leave.

Everyone, wake up!

It should ring soon.

The chicken leg was all my fault, it was my meat.

Don't steal my chicken leg

Ahhh

I knew you had a good voice.

The third brother saved Zhao Dashu's life.

What happened to Mom?

Snakes in your house

It was crawling on my face just now.

Grandma, please see clearly.

It even licked my face.

daughter

Our village is nestled against the mountains

It's not unusual for snakes to occasionally get into the house.

Normal my ass

I've lived in this old house for so many years, how come I've never seen it?

My house is close to the back mountain.

We'll go inside and look for you.

Look at the bed!

I found it on the bed.

The head of the household searched carefully.

Didn't we catch snakes inside the house before?

You've been here before too.

Occasionally, not very common.

ah

Ah, really! Hurry up and get rid of it!

ah

Mother caught it, but it wasn't poisonous.

Don't be afraid

What does it mean to say "If it's not poisonous, there's nothing to be afraid of"?

It's crawling all over my face.

It didn't bite you, did it?

If they really bite, will I still be there?

I've wasted my time raising you.

Our whole family got up in the middle of the night to look for snakes for you.

What else do you want?

A snake wants to enter my house.

I can also post a notice on the wall to prevent it from coming.

It's too late, I should go to sleep.

I'll have someone check the house inside and out again tomorrow morning.

I don't sleep in that room

Who knows if there's a second one?

So where would you like to sleep?

I sleep with Xiaoyu Lihua

become

Milk, sleep with me.

If there's a snake, I'll catch it for you.

I was the one who caught the snake that used to live in our house.

I'm very good

You catch snakes

Yeah, I'm not afraid.

It's not poisonous and can be used in soups.

You guys never run away when you see a snake.

Arrest them if you can

If you can't catch it, just let it go by itself and don't worry.

We're used to it.

Milk, go away

Don't touch me

Mother, you were scared by the snake, can you...

Why get angry at your child?

I did not mean that

I'm not sleepy right now.

The two children went to sleep first.

I'll sit in the courtyard for a while.

I really won't go inside.

Not entering

I'll stay in the yard tonight.

There is no roof here.

A snake can't just fall off your head, can it?

Milk was chosen by myself

Then you can't blame us.

Mother really won't go back to the house.

You all go to sleep if you don't reply.

I'm old and need less sleep.

It will be dawn after sitting for a while.

Call someone if the milk gets cold.

Okay, you should leave now.

If you see a snake, remember to call me and I'll catch it.

Go back to sleep.

The third family is good at everything.

Good house and good food

There are people to serve them.

This snake is terrifying!

I really want to have one every day.

How could I possibly be alive to enjoy happiness?

It must be wind

Oh help! It's happening again!

here we go again

Was the old lady overly frightened?

The masters didn't tell us not to go over there.

Perhaps they were afraid the old lady would lose face.

Mom's breakfast will be ready soon.

Eat before you leave

If you don't eat, I'll go back to my old house.

There were two non-venomous snakes last night.

Have the servants thoroughly inspect this today.

There may not be another one in the future.

Two are still called

Your house is a snake pit.

Whoever wants to live here can live here.

I can't stay here for a second longer.

daughter

Or I can give you a ride.

I don't need to know the way.

Daughter, look at your grandma like this

What comes to mind?

When disaster strikes, everyone flies away.

That's quite fitting.

Mother, why are you back at this time?

I'll stay here after I come back.

What happened to my third brother's wife?

Didn't I have a nice night's stay?

A snake crawled into the house

It scared my mother.

She sat there for half the night, clutching her bundle.

She absolutely refused to stay at my house.

Don't eat breakfast

I couldn't stop him.

Why are there always snakes in your house?

It's inevitable to rely on the back mountain

I've climbed in here before.

More often when no one lives there

Mother lives at my third brother's house

It can save a mouthful of food

Why were you scared away by just two snakes?

Aren't you going to the third brother's family to enjoy a life of luxury?

Why are you back?

His house was a snake pit.

A snake crawled on my face at night.

Later, another one came to the courtyard.

Do you think the third brother has lost his mind?

Building houses with lots of money

The cover was placed near the snake's nest.

Two snakes appeared in succession as soon as he arrived.

The third brother's methods are quite clever.

No arguing, no rushing

He ran back on his own in half a day.

But they still can't find the fault.

Even if I come back

This doesn't mean I forgive you.

Our score isn't settled yet.

You should wake up first before we talk.

What do you mean?

It means you're stupid.

Each of the three sons had his own agenda.

Even old women can't be relied on.

Can't count on any of them

daughter in law

How about we buy vegetables from the village?

Buy and resell

Buying two catties for one coin

In La County, it sells for one coin per pound.

Some people find it troublesome to go to the city.

I'd definitely be willing to sell half a coin for a pound.

We earn the middleman's profit.

This is much easier than growing your own.

You are responsible for selling

I collected in the village

That's the point.

While the road is still walkable

Earning one more day is one more day

You've really got a knack for business now, sir.

I never dared to think of it before.

I actually went out and sold myself once.

I've come to realize that making money also requires using your brain.

It's both laborious and time-consuming to make a trip to the county town by myself.

I'll sell it to you for half a penny a pound.

You have to choose good vegetables

Don't want the bad ones

There are still quite a few in the fields

I'll bring it to you tomorrow morning.

Even without relying on the third son

I can earn too.

Big sister, it's snowing.

Dressed

Let's build a snowman

They said they weren't cold.

Don't play for too long

Mom, I'm not cold.

It will snow every year from now on

I accompanied the pear blossoms.

Can we still go ice skating on the river?

What if the ice isn't frozen solid?

Mother is right

The ice surface is dangerous, don't go.

We'll go play in the snow in the open space behind the mountain next time.

Eating outside in this cold weather

Eat early today

Chat while eating

The pot remained hot.

Not afraid of the food getting cold

Xiao Lei was also called in.

He'd never eaten this kind of hot pot before.

Sister, this meat will be cooked in just a couple of flips.

Don't just focus on playing

Dip it in sauce after it's cooked.

Xiaoyu's way of eating is really good.

Eat and grill at the same time

No matter how cold it is, I'm not afraid the food will get cold.

You can invite Uncle Liu and the village chief to come in a few days.

Let's start the meal early.

Eat, chat, and drink

Good idea, Xiao Lei

Have a drink with my uncle.

Zhao Shuqing

Dad, that's enough.

Don't actually get him drunk.

This is nothing, hahaha.

When I didn't say

Daughter, after the New Year, our muddy field

Shouldn't we reorganize it?

It's best to grow your own batch of river gourds.

Otherwise, we would have to go out and collect them every year.

The quantity is too unstable

There aren't many along the Miaozi River.

Small ones are easy to find.

The real question is whether they can survive.

Next time you pick them, keep any with seeds on them separately.

Don't kill them all

We also picked out a batch of smaller ones to bring back for trial raising.

Should the muddy ground be wetted a bit more?

It's more like the place they used to live.

This will allow us to have some of the goods ourselves next year.

become

I'll do it when spring arrives.

Business cannot be judged solely on this year's performance.

We need to pave the way for next year as well.

Sister, does that mean I won't have to go so far to pick them up anymore?

Really developed

You are responsible for eating.

Hahaha

Daughter, you say this guy is alright except for his face?

What else could possibly be a match for you?

Steady temperament and good at hunting

You chose the person yourself.

Never mind if I didn't ask.

Why

Big Pillar

Your father is going to find you a marriage partner.

Dad, I'm still young, no rush.

My older sister just got engaged.

Xiaoyu is younger than you, and it's already settled.

Her situation is special.

My third uncle's family has no sons.

This is your grandfather's intention.

Ru Xin's affair with someone else as a concubine would eventually come to light.

That would damage the reputation of our Zhao family.

When the news spreads

A daughter from a good family might not be willing to marry into our family.

My eldest cousin is from my uncle's family.

What does this have to do with our second wife?

They've all split up.

In the eyes of outsiders

Even if the family separates, they are still one family.

One prospers, all prosper.

If one suffers, all suffer.

Your uncle was a scholar.

This happened

Others won't just criticize his family.

Even those of us with the surname Zhao are being talked about.

So Dad is in a hurry to order for me now.

It's because I'm afraid no one will be willing in the future.

Dad won't hurt you

I just don't want to regret it after things get out of hand.

Suddenly proposing marriage

The topic of studying next year came up again.

Is Dad trying to find an excuse to make me drop out of school?

Dad won't hurt you

Let's take a look first.

I'm not going to make you get married tomorrow.

So, which daughter have you and your mother taken a liking to?

Your Uncle Wang's family

He is capable, reliable, and filial.

They know each other's backgrounds.

I don't like her.

Why

That girl is efficient at her work.

The elders in the family are also kind.

She was dark-skinned and thin.

The skin is also rough

He looks like a man.

I married a wife

Not looking for a brother

Can looks put food on the table?

Making a living depends on one's character and competence.

That ox is even more capable.

Why don't you just marry me a cow?

How can you talk like that, child?

Anyway, I won't marry

Dad, don't use arranged marriages as an excuse to make me drop out of school next year.

I learned the best among the three.

It was agreed that whoever gets better grades will continue studying.

When did I say you should be suspended from school?

Marriage is marriage.

Studying is studying

They found a capable wife

They just want me to stay and farm.

Let the daughter-in-law help with the work

Support two more younger brothers

I won't let them dictate my life.

Why are you so angry when the talks didn't go through?

That brat has ambitions that are too high.

I said Wang family daughter

He disliked the fact that the person was dark-skinned.

Dislike someone for being thin

They were even worried that I wouldn't let him study.

If you don't want to, then forget it.

Look how much we've made selling vegetables lately!

Three taels and two mace

It's only been a short time since it was sold, and it's already worth more than three ounces.

Next spring, let's cultivate two more acres of wasteland.

Homegrown vegetables are all capital.

The family is getting better and better

I'm worried I won't find a good girl in the future.

really

Growing your own is the most cost-effective

Besides exerting physical strength

Whatever we earn, it's all ours.

I knew selling vegetables was so profitable!

We should have done it a few years ago.

Maybe the house can be built even bigger.

It's never too late to start.

If the head of the household continues to earn money like this...

The three children want to study

Maybe we can't afford it either.

Don't think that studying is a bottomless pit.

Exam with Bound Pen and Ink

After marriage, the wife and children still need to eat and drink.

When my grandson grows up, he'll have to study again.

Brother, have you forgotten how much it took you all these years to study?

But the child is willing to study

You can't just forcibly stop them.

It would be good if we could provide for one.

We boil our bones into oil

They couldn't afford to support scholars from all three regions.

Why does money disappear so quickly?

So we need to spend money wisely.

It's always more reassuring to live in your own house.

At least I don't have to listen to those people gossiping every day anymore.

The walls are also high

Once the gate is closed

Others can't see what we're doing at home.

Buying it was the right decision.

We, the family head, spent a lot of money on buying the house.

I don't have much money left.

The school has been closed for the past few months.

You should copy more books.

I'm not busy enough

I'm copying from morning till night, except when I'm eating or sleeping.

Now that I'm free...

Laundry and cooking

Serving you and your two sons

When I have free time, I even embroider purses, take a look.

Touching cold water every day

It will rot if it gets any colder.

You think copying books is tiring?

How about we switch?

I just said it casually.

Why take it so seriously?

Can't you just give me a nice look?

They take advantage of small favors and become arrogant.

Our house purchase

Should we tell our parents?

say what

Tell them we used Nina's money to buy the house.

Besides, they know the address.

I'm free, so I'm staying in the county town for a few days.

Will you let me pass or not?

The first time I came back to the new house

Do we still need to host a dinner party?

Both sons will be taking exams after the New Year.

Every little bit helps.

Let's leave it at that for now.

What is the current state of Ruxin?

During holidays

She can't even go back to her parents' home.

They will all be off the field after the New Year.

You need to teach more

Isn't the second child smarter than the first?

Is there any hope this time?

The second child is quick-witted.

But my mind isn't on the book.

My memorization and dictation skills are terrible.

This time it's basically hopeless.

What about the boss?

Ye Xuan is fortunate that he is willing to work hard

Try it first

It would be great if I won.

If it doesn't work, try again next year.

Didn't you pass the imperial examination very quickly back then?

He passed the imperial examination at a young age and became a scholar.

Why is our son so difficult?

Qualifications vary

Whether the eldest son can pass the imperial examination depends on luck.

It's even harder to become a scholar.

If the second son is willing to change his ways

There is actually some hope.

I still hope my son will be successful in the future.

Can you support Nina Wang?

Regardless of whether you pass the exam or not

I still need to continue studying.

If I really can't take the imperial examination in the future

Can also work as an accountant or a tutor

I'll keep a closer eye on the second son from now on.

He kept complaining of being tired.

I won't back down.

That's why he's so cunning.

There are more ways to be lazy than to read books.

Hahaha

The wheat soaked in the rain for almost 6 hours.

Didn't you say you wanted to watch?

I almost forgot

Aunt Wu waters the plants three times a day

Don't let it get moldy

Call me when the sprout grows this long.

Wheat will spoil if it sprouts.

What are you up to now?

maltose

Food for me

Let's make it first.

You soaked so much wheat

Just to feed the pear blossoms

Now he even dares to coax his mother.

Mother is getting smarter and smarter

Hahaha

Seriously

You're really good at making candy.

I have a plan in my mind

Try it once

We'll know in a few days whether it works or not.

Can maltose really be made at home?

They're not cheap in towns or county seats.

I've only ever seen food.

I've never seen anyone make this.

It's a bit difficult

Especially the final sugar pull requires strength.

But let's try it first.

Compare what you make with those from outside.

There are still two kilograms of maltose at home.

I'll put it away first.

If we don't let the pear blossoms eat, it will be a good time for them to taste it.

I also have candy I brought back from the capital.

Give him one a day

That's more like it.

Daughter

How come you have so many ideas all day long?

Dad, I have a question for you.

Will you be able to take the exam next year?

You'll be a god when you become a father next year.

I've only been studying for a short time.

That means it's not working yet.

Give Dad a year

I'll step down next year.

I'll try my best to get you a place in the imperial examination.

I knew Dad was powerful.

Others study for seven or eight years before daring to go.

You dared to go on stage after reading such a short passage?

It's already very strong.

What if I don't pass the exam?

If you don't pass the exam, consider it a chance to familiarize yourself with the exam venue.

Do you know what the exam will cover?

Come again next time

Besides my uncle, our village

How many people have actually been to the examination hall?

Dad is already very capable.

That's right, I won't take a nap this afternoon.

Continue studying

Master Liu is asking if you want to go play cards.

Do you stand by what you just said?

If I don't go, I won't have the time.

Father is wise

They also delivered meals to my study.

I've been in seclusion for the past few days.

Babies, thank you all for liking to dress up as a peasant girl.

Raising kids and farming is incredibly fun and exciting!

The next season is currently in rapid production.

More exciting things to come!

Remember to click to reserve and add to your favorites!

So your dad just went to school because of that?

Mom, please praise me a few more times tonight.

He said he's been working too hard lately

It breaks my heart to see you like this.

He is the pillar of our family.

He is a role model for all the men in the village.

Isn't this just coaxing him?

Do you want him to drink and gamble every day?

Still studying at home

Studying makes me drunk and I reek of alcohol.

I find the smell irritating.

That's right.

Um

become

Praise it every day from now on

This will allow it to become sugar.

It's still early, so let it sit overnight.

Continue tomorrow morning

Find two strong people

Squeeze out all the water inside.

How much longer?

Cook until the water is almost evaporated

It's ready to pour out.

Start pulling sugar

It's really turned into candy.

Honey, I think ours tastes better.

It does smell better

This batch is also finer, using glutinous rice.

Willing to use high-quality materials

The taste will definitely be good.

It's impossible for businesses outside to use such high-quality rice.

From now on, I'll do this.

Glutinous rice is too expensive

Doing business also requires considering costs.

Get a daughter who knows how to keep accounts

Are you planning to sell this candy yourself?

I want to approve it for the villagers.

Let them go to the county town to sell it themselves.

We handle the goods, they run the errands.

Everyone can make money

But I see you cooked so much glutinous rice.

Making it yourself doesn't seem to save much money compared to buying it.

No need to use glutinous rice anymore, just exquisite rice.

Exquisite, approximately 10 coins per pound

Wheat 6 wen per jin

One pound of sugar requires three or four ounces of wheat.

Add about one and a half pounds of exquisite

The raw materials alone cost about 23 coins.

23 articles

This doesn't even include firewood and labor.

So the actual price will be a bit higher.

But outside, maltose sells for 80 coins per pound.

The profit margin inside is indeed quite large.

No wonder candy is always so expensive

I also want to try barley.

Which has lower cost?

The taste is pretty much the same.

Use whichever one

How about we open our own candy shop?

If you sell retail

It can no longer be approved for villagers.

It's pointless to steal your own business.

Let's just allocate it to the villagers.

How much can we sell if we open a shop?

Dozens of households went from street to street

The quantity is actually larger

That's what I meant too.

Wholesale price: 60 wen per jin

The retail price is uniformly 75 coins.

60. Have we made too much money?

The price cannot be set too low.

Too low over time

There are still people who complain that we earn too much.

There's also the possibility that someone might undercut prices and steal business.

Everyone gets a profit of 15 out of 60 coins.

That's enough for them to earn.

So what about the money we earned?

Earn more money and do more good deeds

The beggars in the county town who had no clothes

elderly people living alone in the village

There are also those who are truly unable to make ends meet.

Send some old cotton clothes and grain in winter

Making money is one thing, but another...

I'll help as much as I can.

But helping others shouldn't mean abandoning the rules.

Prices must be standardized

Otherwise, 75 today

Someone will be 70 tomorrow

In the end, everyone engaged in a price war.

Um

Ordinary people buy candy because it's sweet.

Not eating offerings

Going forward, the priority will be given to affordable and stable main ingredients.

As long as the taste isn't too different, it's fine.

Let's settle on this.

The villagers took 60 coins

Sell ​​it for a uniform price of 75 coins.

Your maternal grandfather's house

Can we also get some from my uncles' side?

The price is the same for relatives and villagers.

However, the sales locations need to be separate.

Don't crowd yourselves on one street

My daughter is so thoughtful.

I'll go and call the village chief and clan chief.

Let them come forward

Rules should be set according to local conditions.

Especially the price

Make sure to say "death" first.

Who broke the rules?

Don't even think about getting any more goods after that.

Once this daughter's business gets going...

Our family doesn't earn money on our own anymore.

It's about leading the whole village to make money.

That depends on whether they can abide by the rules.

Go and invite the village chief and Group Leader Zhao over.

yes

The older man invited me to drink.

I won't drink today.

I'll treat you to something.

I'm busy making progress now

I don't have time to mess around with you guys.

What do you want from me?

Uncle and the village chief both tried it

It's just maltose sold in the county town, and it's quite sweet.

The taste is about the same as in the county town.

Almost whiter or even whiter

This is what my family made.

You can even make candy.

This uncle can really make this himself.

able

I called you here to talk

How to get the villagers to sell together?

Maltose sold outside costs 80 coins per pound

I get the goods from the village for 60 coins.

After taking it, go to the county town to sell it yourself.

Earn the middleman's price difference

60 articles

One jin contains a full 20 wen of space.

However, the retail price is uniformly 75 coins.

We have new stock.

Selling cheaper makes it easier to sell.

Most importantly, everyone pays the same price.

You can't be 75 today.

He'll be 70 tomorrow.

If someone else raises a price of 68 the day after tomorrow, things will get chaotic.

In the end, nobody wins.

I understand this logic.

Therefore, the first clause, 75 coins, stipulates death.

Price increases or decreases are not allowed.

The second rule is that goods must be purchased in cash; no credit payments are allowed.

Give me as much silver as you can get sugar

This should

Even brothers should keep clear accounts.

Don't say you want the candy first later.

Pay after selling

I'm in the business of buying and selling.

Not the third article of lending

The sales areas should be separated.

You can go to the nearby villages in the county town.

Don't let dozens of people crowd onto one street

This is to be arranged by me and the clan chiefs.

There is one more important point.

Everyone supervises each other

If anyone secretly lowers prices or breaks the rules

You can report it to the village chief.

Verified

I will reward the person who reports me with one tael of silver.

And keep it secret

Who said not to disclose?

One or two

It's worth buying a set of rules for one or two taels of silver.

There is this reward

Who wants to secretly do something bad?

All have to be weighed

besides

Those who violate the rules will be suspended from supplying goods.

Once is enough

No second chance

Dozens of households doing the same business

If it's not strict, it will become chaotic.

Some people lower prices to attract customers

Others had no choice but to surrender in order to survive.

In the end, it wasn't just one company that earned less.

It means the whole village earns less.

That makes sense.

So you should go back and explain the rules thoroughly first.

Those who are willing to wait can come and get candy.

Don't force yourself to do something you don't want to.

I'm in charge of the Zhao clan.

I went to find the clan leaders of the other surnames.

You can't set up your home as the pick-up point.

Otherwise, there would be people coming and going all day long.

Just what I wanted

Find a reliable and trustworthy centralized delivery provider

Payment is collected together when picking up the goods.

Hand it over to me

Then gather people

Let's settle this tonight.

How to divide the remaining areas?

How to sell in turn

You should discuss this with the clan leaders of each surname.

I do not participate

You don't show up

No

We still need to make candy at home.

I still have to study

Don't make people come to my house every day to get goods.

Find a reliable consolidated shipping provider

How will I give you the silver?

Cash on delivery

Finally, I will handle everything.

No one gets credit

I will handle it well.

Daughter

Why does our house feel smaller and smaller the longer we live here?

Add a few more rooms in the front yard to serve as the main hall.

There are no empty rooms left.

Then don't touch our house.

Xiao Lei's courtyard has many empty rooms.

It's close by.

It can be converted into a small workshop first.

Shouldn't we ask Xiao Lei first?

After all, they live there.

Of course you should ask.

Okay, let him come here to study during the day.

Go back to sleep at night

He doesn't have to worry about cooking, which is perfect.

Dad, we definitely built this house.

But Xiao Lei also contributed money.

Respect should still be shown.

I know I'll go and say it myself.

Xiao Lei has been studying too hard lately.

The progress is getting faster and faster.

Dad and the third son have caused a big commotion again.

What he does has nothing to do with us.

He can make candy

Now the whole village is selling his family's maltose.

Explain clearly

He made it himself.

The clan chief said it himself.

Buy at 60 yuan per jin

They sell for 75 coins outside.

You can earn 15 coins per pound

How many kilograms can you sell in a day?

Much better than doing manual labor

But the third brother definitely earns more.

Sugar was made by servants.

The villagers sold it for him

He does nothing but collect money, Dad.

Do you think this recipe will work?

It originally belonged to our Zhao family.

If we're talking about clan property...

Nonsense, our family has been farming for generations.

Where did the sugar-making recipe come from?

Sugar is so profitable

There's absolutely no way to do it.

There might be some arguments at first.

Now that the rules are set...

The whole clan knows whose prescription it is.

If you go and cause trouble again

Not only does the third brother not recognize it.

Even the clan chief won't help you.

Why does the third son get all the good stuff?

Because the item is currently in his possession.

Also because of when

I've taken advantage of him

Second brother, stop trying to use this prescription.

father

Accept your fate, it's not yours to be.

No matter how much you think about it, it's not yours.

Father, I am not reconciled.

Why is the third son getting better and better off?

I still have to forage for food in the mud.

That's his skill.

First, tell me if you're selling this candy or not.

What I want is the recipe.

It's not a 15-coin price difference.

I also want to, but the third brother's heart is no longer with us.

Go and pressure him now.

Will he listen?

If we get the prescription back

The eldest brother can also benefit.

Unless you persuade the clan leader first

Make him admit that the prescription belongs to the Zhao family

My older brother is willing to step in.

I'll go with you.

But would he?

The second one costs 15 coins a pound, which is quite a lot.

You and Li both sold

You can earn some money in a day

You're not destined to be a master.

Don't always think you can achieve everything in one step.

And don't even think about getting a group of people to pressure the third brother.

Now the whole village depends on his candy to make money.

You really drove people away.

Who will let us off the hook?

He can still leave the village

Why not?

There is a house in the county town

There are still friends outside

He packed his luggage and left.

Where can you find the village when life was cut off?

Our family is a sinner.

The third son is in love

How Liu Shunzi and the others treated him back then

He's pulling them in now.

You and the boss went too far in the past.

Me too

Even if the relationship is bad now

He's still your brother.

Parents really have something to do

He'll lend a hand, at least a little.

This last bit of affection is gone before we part ways.

I see

I went back and discussed selling candy with my wife.

old man

Could I get some candy for my family too?

I helped my older brother's family.

Who doesn't have a mother?

There is another family of the mother.

Finally, people from the whole county came to buy the goods for 60 coins.

What a load of crap!

An empty house is not needed anyway.

During the day I go to Uncle Zhao's place to study.

Cheng also comes to my house for meals.

Um

You've learned this much.

Hmm, Master told me to continue reading.

This can't go on.

Where do I put my pride?

I don't have time to drink.

It's no use contacting me.

Not drinking

I want to discuss business with you.

If you need to sell sugar, go to the village chief.

I've entrusted everything to him.

We want to get more.

Bringing relatives is not allowed.

Everyone is taking it out.

The whole place is in chaos

Not for relatives

We sell it ourselves.

How many kilograms can you sell a day?

Running around the streets and alleys is really tough.

We don't want to sell in the county town.

Where to go?

Several of us partners in Fucheng

Carry 1,000 jin at a time

If business is good, bring 2,000 jin (1,000 catties).

Sold all the way to Fucheng

A round trip takes about a month

How much you earn, split it equally.

The surrounding area was divided up among the villagers.

They ran a little further

Instead of competing with fellow villagers for business

You want to bring one or two thousand catties of sugar

Sold all the way to the prefectural city

Uncle, do you think this is something that can be done?

Wait a minute

I'll go ask someone first.

They wanted to bring one or two thousand kilograms of sugar at a time.

Sold all the way to the daughter of the prefectural city

Do you think you're capable?

Can villagers from nearby counties and towns sell

They walked away.

Instead of competing for business

What about the payment?

One or two thousand catties is no small amount.

They can buy on credit.

We can trust Uncle Shunzi and his ilk.

Pay the bill when you get back

Unsold goods can be returned in their original condition.

Aren't you usually the most annoyed by buying on credit?

The rules are set for ordinary people who buy goods.

Long-term cooperation

Caravans that can assume responsibility can be counted separately.

If you have no flexibility at all in doing business

It won't grow big.

Honey, what do you think about me going with them?

Don't even think about it.

What our family needs most right now isn't earning a few hundred more taels of silver.

Your identity is that you are studying at home.

Okay, okay

I'd like to add one more person to the team.

master

My daughter understands me best.

Shunzi and his friends are good at running and daring to take risks.

Sometimes I just act impulsively.

No one can stop it

Your father is shrewd and steady.

Able to keep the situation under control

Then let's explain our concerns to Uncle Shunzi and the others.

They were willing to ask the master again.

If you don't want to, then don't force it on me.

become

There are still one or two thousand catties left, which is not a small amount.

Set your departure date in advance

The workshop needs to add more people

The warehouse also needs someone to guard it.

I'll make the arrangements.

You can rest assured and do your thing.

These fathers outside came

Dad, remember to keep the stove burning on the way.

Don't risk freezing just to save some charcoal.

You're not young anymore, don't try to be brave.

I'm perfectly healthy.

It's the age to make money

Dad, please take good care of them on the road.

If something really goes wrong

Better to earn less

Don't take risks.

Don't worry, there are so many of us going together.

Head of household

I hope I won't encounter any robbers on the road.

Pui pui pui Dad just went out

Say something auspicious

The master is in better spirits than you.

It's good for him to go out for a walk.

Welcome!

Head of household

I keep running into people from our village selling maltose lately.

It's on every street

Several families have even put on new cotton-padded coats.

It is certain that money was made.

How many copper coins can one earn by hawking goods on the street?

One or two is fine

The whole village is now like it's being sold.

We must go back and visit on the Winter Solstice.

Where does this cheap sugar come from?

I need to take a car to get back.

You can't go empty-handed.

If there really is a way to make money

This little bit of car fare is nothing.

What gifts should I bring?

Buy some meat or pastries

There are cabbages in the cellar.

Just bring one.

Winter Solstice is the perfect time to make cabbage and pork dumplings.

Just a cabbage

Or add two more radishes?

Forget it, radishes are valuable, so let's just get cabbage.

Don't bring anything else.

Heavy family burden

Parents know we're going back

Mainly inquiring about selling sugar

Not showing off

Um

Take it yourself

If Mother gets angry

Don't blame me for not reminding you.

A filial heart

What's there to get angry about?

Just tell the kitchen what you want to eat for lunch.

Don't make do with one person

Don't worry, Auntie, I won't go hungry.

I used to help my wife and daughter with my chores.

This kid has stolen it all.

Will there still be a place for me in this house in the future?

Dad got on the bus

Here

The boss is back.

Come back

What else should I bring?

Everything costs money in the county town

This cabbage

Mother, isn't it the Winter Solstice today that we make dumplings?

You and Dad love to eat cabbage and pork filling.

I specially brought it from the county town.

My older brother is so filial.

I know my parents love to eat meat

I specially brought back a cabbage.

Second brother, what do you mean?

Do we rural people lack cabbage?

What's missing is the meat in your mouth.

Shut up, all of you!

Hahaha

father

I'm here to celebrate the holiday with you.

The third brother arrived early.

The eldest brother rushing back from the county town is what truly shows filial piety.

What good stuff should I bring? Cabbage.

Fresh and tender cabbages from the county town

I made meat dumplings especially for my parents.

Everything costs money in the county town

So what if I'm short on money?

The Qian family gave 250 taels.

It's gone so quickly.

My house was burgled again.

Boss, don't you still have some silver on hand?

Mother's money is needed everywhere.

I will definitely work hard to earn money in the future.

I'll buy you meat next time.

Oh, Mom, wait!

Mother, I recently saw in the county town

Many people in our village sell maltose.

Where in our village can we find cheap sugar?

Your third brother gave them

Their family makes sugar now.

Third brother, can you make candy?

Won't

But everyone in the village gets their goods from you.

I got it from somewhere else too.

Why

You really didn't do it.

Who saw me do it?

What's so hard about the third son's family admitting it?

The clan chief said you made the sugar.

The boss is right.

Sugar was controlled by the imperial court.

Brother, don't talk nonsense.

I made maltose.

It is made from sugar.

It's not some privately made official candy.

So, does it actually make money?

I only earn a meager profit from each kilogram.

servants need food and drink

Firewood costs money too.

To put it bluntly, the main goal this time is to help the villagers earn some money.

You can't believe a single word.

My brother won't lend you money.

Why are you hiding it so tightly?

I won't lend it.

Provide emergency relief, not long-term support.

We do not engage in lending.

What do you need so much good reputation for?

Hehe, because I'm preparing for my next scientific expedition, bro.

What do you think of my New Year?

Is there still hope for those who pass the imperial examinations and become children?

What if I pass the imperial examination and become a scholar again in the future?

Don't be jealous.

The Master truly said you have a talent for studying.

My daughter said that with my intelligence...

If my father had attacked me back then

Maybe I'd be an official by now.

The third brother can just say that at home.

Be careful when you go out.

Don't worry, I'm going to make a name for myself.

Third brother

I have a way for both of us to make money.

I don't want to hear

Listen to what I tell you

Your older brother at least had more education than you.

Many people know that their parents love meat dumplings.

So bringing back a cabbage from the county town was indeed clever.

Okay, you say.

I'll give you a chance.

So that you won't complain again that I don't even let you speak.

Hand over Yitang's prescription.

I'll go talk to Mr. Qian.

He has a wide network of connections

The shops are numerous and related to our family.

The silver that will be sold at that time

We'll split it 50/50.

Brother, take my prescription and use it to find connections in the Qian family.

Then you divide it in half.

I'll handle the negotiations.

You just need to provide the prescription.

You really know how to do business.

I will not cooperate with the Qian family.

Dozens of households in the village now make money by selling sugar.

If I transfer the business to the Qian family

It's taking away their jobs.

The second Qian family, that kind of social class

Got into a trap

The older brother didn't know what was going on.

This is a threat to me.

It is reminding you

You've really robbed the entire village of their livelihood.

First, think about whether you'll ever go back to the village.

Do we still worship our ancestors?

It won't be me stopping you then.

It's the entire village, dozens of households, who all resent you.

Besides, after your daughter entered the Qian family...

You can't even get through the door.

He even dares to say he has a good relationship with Master Qian.

My older brother has time to scheme against my recipe.

It would be better to think more about Zhao Ruxin's future.

What happened to Ru Xin?

Third brother, do you know something?

What exactly happened to Ru Xin?

old

In the third son

Don't keep me in suspense

Just say what you have to say.

Third brother, say it!

Is Ru Xin pregnant?

Mother is overthinking it.

Master Qian had so many concubines in his harem

In recent years, who has given birth to a child besides the legal wife?

There have always been rumors outside that after entering the Qian family...

The concubines in a household would be controlled in terms of childbearing.

Some were

They might even be granted the privilege of avoiding the Jia (a type of armor).

I have no idea

My elder brother has known Mr. Qian for so long

They should know better than me

Head of household

Did you know about this?

The concubines in the inner quarters had indeed been childless for many years.

But it doesn't necessarily mean administering drugs.

Mr. Qian is getting old

It could also be due to physical incompetence.

You didn't tell me this before.

You said that if Ru Xin gave birth to a son or daughter

My life is secure from now on.

Even if the child is registered under the wife's name

She was also her biological son.

I won't ignore the future

You let go first.

You lie to me, and you lie to my daughter too.

If she can never have children

Who will she rely on after Mr. Qian is gone?

Parents, save me

You shrew

How dare you hit my son?

Settle accounts together when selling your daughter

When something goes wrong, they start blaming each other.

Stop it, everyone!

Let the third brother finish speaking first.

Third brother and sister-in-law, please...

We shouldn't have targeted Tang Fangzi. I admit my mistake.

Tell me what you know.

What exactly happened to Ruxin?

He is still alive and well.

She was quite pampered after entering the house.

This still hasn't gotten to the point.

All I know is what I've heard.

What I heard

Who are you trying to drive to their wits' end?

Actually, it wasn't anything serious.

I heard that Mr. Qian is seriously ill.

Very sick

It seems the Qian family is already making preparations for the funeral.

How could this be?

Third son

That's true.

I'll only talk about what I heard.

My older brother lives in the county town.

And they have such a good relationship with the Qian family.

Logically, he should have known before me.

Brother, you'd better hurry back to the county town and ask around.

If Master Qian is really gone

The most important thing is not to cry.

The question is to find out what to do with those concubines.

what to do

Should I stay with the Qian family?

Or send her back to her parents' home

If the Qian family is unwilling to support so many people

There has to be an arrangement.

No, the Qian family is so rich.

Even if they didn't want to keep those concubines

You can also send Ruxin back.

We raise them ourselves.

What's the point of bringing her back?

If she truly cannot have children

She was also someone's concubine

Coming back will only ruin the reputations of my two sons.

Dad, you hit me

I'm hitting you.

Ruxin is not your biological daughter.

When you sold her for money, weren't you afraid of ruining your reputation?

Now she might not even be able to save her life.

You're the one who thinks she's shameful.

The person was really brought back.

As long as the family doesn't make a fuss about it outside.

Who knows what kind of life she led in the Qian family?

Find him an honest and reliable person later.

He can still live.

But both children still have exams.

Therefore, it is even more important to bring them back safely.

If Ru Xin really gets into trouble at the Qian family...

You, as the biological father, are the one who deserves to be talked about behind your back.

Can the reputations of two grandsons be clean?

father

I see

Ultimately, he was still afraid of the first wife.

The future of his two grandsons was jeopardized

Care is in my heart

But the favoritism hasn't changed at all.

We, the family leaders, will go back to the county town now.

Quickly find out how the Qian family plans to arrange the inner quarters.

Don't wait until something really bad happens before you start crying.

Winter Solstice Rice

What else is there to eat?

Go back and get down to business.

You have to leave now

How long has it been since the eldest brother came back?

Eat a few dumplings before you leave.

And you

As I wish

Not a single word is allowed to be uttered.

Dare to let the villagers know

I skinned you alive.

I know, I know

I wouldn't talk nonsense.

I only mentioned it briefly to my two older sisters.

They were even asked to keep it a secret.

It probably won't be spread.

I wonder if the eldest brother has gotten on the oxcart yet.

Walking in the snow can be a real ordeal

Dad, I'm back.

Why are you back again?

The oxcart is eating

Refusing to leave now

I was thinking of waiting until he finished eating.

It's faster than walking back to the county town.

Sit down without eating

This appetite

The person who just complained about his daughter's reputation

It's as if nothing happened.

Boss

father

After finishing this meal

Get back to the county town immediately.

You must get things sorted out for me regarding Ruxin's matter.

Third Uncle, I have a favor to ask you.

Help me as I wish

Get her out of the Qian family

cannot

She is your niece.

Father has forgotten how my eldest brother treated Xiaoyu back then.

He sold the person.

He took the money too.

Now that something has happened...

Why should I clean it up?

If it really was Xiaoyu that was sold back then

Your older brother wouldn't just watch him die.

Do you even believe that yourself?

People dare to sell

They were still hoping he would save them.

Don't try to fool me with those words meant to coax a simpleton.

My older brother has been in the county town for so many years

It's not that you always say you know this person or are familiar with that person.

This is his biological daughter.

Why would my third uncle go and join in the fun?

Third son

Ru Xin is still young

He was young, and Xiaoyu was young back then too.

Father, let your family handle your own affairs.

If the eldest brother really wants to save

They will naturally find a way.

If they can't be saved

This only shows that he is not capable enough.

Or simply unwilling

My daughter-in-law, Xiaoyu

Walked home

You wouldn't go to other provinces before the oxcart arrived.

Dad, I've already made arrangements with the driver.

He'll come pick him up in a bit.

I don't care what method you use.

Ru Xin must be brought back to me.

Knowing that the Qian family was willing to eat well

Drinking nourishes Zhao Ruxin for a lifetime

Xiaoyu doesn't necessarily have to come back to suffer.

Father doesn't help Ruxin

Do you think your father is heartless?

No one is responsible for whose child.

We don't need to take the blame for our uncle.

If Father, Master Qian is really gone

How will Madam Qian arrange for her concubines?

I heard that he used to let the unfavored ones go home.

They should give them some money to sever ties.

He managed the money for many years

They probably wouldn't keep dozens of people in the backyard.

As long as Zhao Ruxin doesn't offend him...

At least there's still a way to survive.

Don't mention Xiao Lei's matter outside.

Auntie, don't worry, I didn't hear anything.

I...I just want a child.

I'll stop once I have a child.

If he really died

The lady's backyard has been quite restless lately.

Once the master goes

They were all thinking of themselves.

Keep a close eye on it

There can't be any trouble these next few days.

After the old man left

How did they arrange it?

Each person sent home will receive 50 taels of silver.

Enough for them to start a new life

What if someone doesn't want to leave?

Then send it to the nunnery outside the city.

Reciting scriptures and praying for the master

Willing to leave with dignity

I give dignity

insist on staying

Just spend your whole life in front of the Buddha

The same goes for the newly arrived Aunt Zhao.

Same

Send it back to the Zhao family then.

The medicine she used on the old man

When you don't know

Do you really think a young girl who just walked in can...?

So it was so easy for the servant to get medicine from outside.

Over the years, the old man has been bringing people to the backyard one after another.

I've already exhausted my body.

He himself refused to stop

Someone is willing to give the final push.

Why should I stop you?

lady

I didn't ask her to do it.

I didn't force her to do it.

She wanted to win the emperor's favor.

Want to have a child

It was her own choice.

The old man also promised me back then that he would be devoted to me.

You saw what happened afterward.

I gave them 50 taels of silver to take home.

That already leaves room for maneuver.

Zhao Ruxin is smart

It's just too hasty

As long as they behave themselves for the next few days

I won't make things difficult for him.

Is it possible for Mr. Qian to recover?

He was indeed very ill but still alive

I also went to the Qian residence.

They wouldn't even let me in.

The master is resting.

Nobody is seen

Ru Xin

He was in the back house

Where can I see this?

What should we do then?

Now, Mrs. Qian is in charge of the Qian family.

No one can get in without her consent; they can only wait.

I always felt that the third brother wouldn't lie to us about something like this.

It seems Mr. Qian really won't last much longer.

There's no use in being anxious.

The boat will straighten itself when it reaches the bridge.

Ruxin is our daughter.

You need to take it seriously.

Know

Have you cooked dinner?

Uncle, we're back!

Finally back

I'm worried you'll be trying to sell more goods.

He doesn't even come back for the New Year.

How can there be the last bit of stock?

In order to hurry

Sold for a mere penny

No matter how important silver is

It's not as important as going home for Chinese New Year.

Smooth journey

This trip to Shunlifu City is worthwhile

Don't exaggerate yet, Dr. Chen has already been summoned.

You all took each other's pulses

Freezing on the road for a month

Don't have a problem you don't know about.

I'm perfectly healthy.

Whether it's good or not is up to the doctor.

It's nothing serious.

I'm just tired.

Take a few days to rest

Nobody leaves today.

Eat at my house first

Eat your fill and go back to sleep

Don't rush to eat

Let's see what we've prepared for you.

I brought half a truckload of New Year's goods from Fucheng.

I'm in great spirits.

Your mother sent the eldest son to ask several times.

If I don't reply to him soon...

Dad, these cured meat dumplings and fried foods

Xiaoyu and I made them all.

Are you slow enough?

There's plenty to eat!

Do it next time

father

Go home and rest for a few days.

Don't start thinking about making money as soon as you get back.

What's wrong with making money?

I plan to go to the county town to look at houses after the New Year.

Buy if there's a suitable one.

Whatever makes you happy.

I guess I won't need to buy any more New Year's goods this year.

We can't finish all of this.

Those who have a good relationship with us

They've all gotten up now.

I can't find anyone to send something to.

Then send these packages of pastries to Xiao Lei.

He could eat something to stave off hunger while studying.

In the end, that kid got off easy again.

Mom's having fried chicken tomorrow

Multiple blasting points

Pair your dad with wine

Ha ha

snort

Tomorrow's invitation to the small office

I need to get to the old house to help out as soon as possible.

Go ahead, you and Xiaoyu and Lihua can just sit there.

Second sister-in-law should be all ready.

I don't know

What should the man give tomorrow?

ordinary farm family

Just follow the rules.

The man is coming tomorrow.

You're not allowed to look down on me.

She's not my daughter.

Why should I care so much?

Zhao Di will wear this festive outfit tomorrow morning.

knew

There are many places to spend money at home

Your brother still needs to go to school.

We'll talk about the silver hairpin when she gets married.

I'm willing to spend money on my son's education.

I'll only get engaged once in my life.

Even a silver hairpin is too precious to bear.

Mother, you should rest early.

I'll be busy tomorrow morning.

Cheng, you should go to bed early too.

Today, the head of the household is taking care of Xiao Di.

We really can't all not go.

I need to copy the book.

Both sons also need to go to school.

It's best if you go back alone.

You're just afraid people will ask Ruxin.

Our whole family went

People asked why Ru Xin didn't come.

How do you explain this?

You went by yourself and then said I wasn't feeling well.

When people ask about Ru Xin's marriage...

Just say you're still looking and there's no rush.

It's cold outside, so take a car when you come back, don't walk.

Please, no one should ask about Ruxin today.

Is there anything I can do to help, Mom?

Organize the tables and chairs in the yard again.

good

You don't need to worry about anything today.

Just sit and wait for the man to arrive.

knew

The Big Tree family has arrived.

Sit down, sit down

The pear blossoms have grown so big!

Chubby is so cute!

Third sister-in-law, do you still recognize me?

I'm from your second sister-in-law's family.

It's not that everyone suddenly becomes close to their mother.

Everyone's eyeing maltose.

Hahaha

Third sister-in-law, I happen to need to speak with you about something.

Come in and have a seat.

When I went back to the village before

Who doesn't revolve around me?

Now you know I don't sell candy.

They were all too lazy to even talk to me.

These people are so enthusiastic today!

I can't hear what anyone is saying.

When my mother was eating at the banquet, someone asked her for candy.

Don't say a word.

It's said that the family business is managed by the father.

knew

Especially for those who want to buy goods for their maternal relatives

We can't open that door.

The area designated by the village chief was thrown into chaos.

Everyone else will have to come looking for it.

Xiaoyu is right.

Once the rules are set, they must be followed.

He could wear any clothes

Better than what I'm wearing today

Uncle, my family also wants to sell candy.

Can you make it a little more even?

My brother-in-law's family lives in the neighboring town.

They won't take our village's land.

Today is my second brother's daughter's special day.

What business to discuss?

After the second brother's engagement is finalized, the wedding date can be set.

The two families haven't discussed it yet.

We'll have to keep Zhaodi here for a while.

By the way, where's the older brother?

Yeah, why didn't Boss Zhao come?

Even her own niece, Xiao Ding, doesn't show up.

The eldest brother hasn't been feeling well lately.

Sister-in-law, we two seem superfluous today.

Here it comes!

The South is Coming

The South is Coming

The man was admitted to the hospital.

Please sit down first.

I'll call the bell when the banquet starts.

The bride price has arrived.

We arrived as previously agreed upon by both of us.

Nothing missing

Grandpa Zhao

Okay, okay

The groom's family made quite a few preparations.

It's clear that Zhaodi is highly valued.

Come on, everyone, take your seats.

The kitchen is almost done.

Wang's sister

Where is your Ruxin?

It seems like I haven't seen that child in a long time.

His dad hasn't been feeling well lately.

Ru Xin is taking care of things in the county town.

If he's truly filial, how will his marriages go?

Zhao Di has been chosen.

He'll be here soon, won't he?

No rush, I'm still watching.

She must be the daughter of a scholar.

You have to choose a good family in the city.

Hahaha

Oh dear, Song's light rain

You guys take your food too, slow down!

Don't let them eat cornbread plain.

Song Family Girl

My family also wants to get some candy from your family in exchange for cash.

No credit, no deal.

I don't care about these things.

It's all the head of the household who's making the arrangements; listen to what he says.

The village is already struggling to keep up with the demand for its current goods.

If other people can't be with Third Sister-in-law, then so be it.

I can, right?

Aunt

I am my third brother's younger sister

They're not outsiders.

Everyone in the village can get it

I'll take some candy out to sell.

It should be fine, right?

My aunt, girls from our village who get married aren't allowed to take candy.

Just because you are my father's younger sister doesn't mean I can't help you.

To make an exception

Adults speaking

It's not your place to interrupt.

I thought it was something big.

It's true that Xiaoyu will be taking over our family in the future.

He can make decisions about family matters.

Later is later

He is still a junior.

The table was full of elders

There's no reason for him to interrupt.

Let me explain.

You can't get our candy

All married women are the same.

This is the rule.

Then why can your family sell it?

Because my dad loves my mom.

It was my hometown that was being helped.

This is not an exception for all married daughters.

Shouldn't the grandmother be happy that her father treats his wife well?

Your father should be filial.

You should first be filial to me and your grandfather.

Where is Dad being unfilial?

When Grandpa is not feeling well

He stayed up all night.

They've given rice and meat as gifts during holidays without fail.

Let's talk about the winter solstice.

My uncle brought back a cabbage.

Grandpa and Grandma love to eat cabbage and pork dumplings.

In the end, wasn't it my dad who made up for the meat and flour?

My aunt is also a married daughter.

I often come back empty-handed.

They left with lots of bags and packages.

What Zhao Nai just said

Is the water that gets married off the property?

You shouldn't always rely on your parents' family for help.

you

Third sister-in-law, no wonder you found a son-in-law for Xiaoyu.

Such an amazing girl

Ordinary families probably wouldn't dare to accept it.

Yes, my Xiaoyu will be the head of the family in the future.

It can't compare to my sister-in-law's Ruxin.

Light rain is good, light rain is good too.

I misspoke.

Mother, why were you siding with Third Sister-in-law just now?

Isn't it just because their family is rich?

What do you know? Don't talk nonsense.

You don't even ask what kind of life I had in the Ma family.

Ma Dacai happily gave a smiley face.

If you're unhappy, just curse.

The same goes for in-laws.

Now even kids dare to talk back to me.

They really bullied you like that?

No income at home

He just wanted to earn more money to support his children's education.

Mother, you have to help me.

I really can't go on like this anymore.

Mother, those are all leftovers from our banquet.

Wheat flowers rarely come back

What's wrong with taking some things?

Look at your mother.

We'll give away our things without hesitation.

Forget it, today is Zhaodi's special day, let's stop making trouble.

Hide your valuables properly from now on.

What about the betrothal gifts?

Save it for Zhaodi first.

Give it to her at the wedding

To save money now

In the end, we still have to make up for it.

I almost caused a major disaster today.

Everyone is asking you why you didn't go.

They also asked if Ru Xin's marriage had been arranged.

I will never attend village banquets again.

Keep a close eye on Ruxin's situation.

Don't worry, there's nothing else going on in our family.

Just have a peaceful Chinese New Year.

How could it be so fast?

He hasn't even made arrangements for my escape route.

Announcing the death and preparing for the funeral.

The old man must be buried before 3 o'clock.

yes

The head of the household, Master Qian, is dead.

real

The Qian family has been completely wiped out.

The whole county knows

None last night

What to do now?

What to do about Ruxin?

The Qian family is busy with funeral arrangements.

We won't get any information from you.

We'll see how Madam Qian arranges things after everyone is buried.

What if they don't release them?

Maybe Ruxin herself doesn't want to come back.

No matter what, the Qian family eats better than our family.

How old is she?

Am I supposed to spend my whole life guarding an old man?

I think we need to start looking into her future now.

Find a widower with children

The family cannot be too poor

You have to be honest.

The first wife must not have been beaten to death.

You can watch for now.

My daughter-in-law, Xiaoyu

Old Man Qian is gone

Didn't we already say he was seriously ill?

Have the people from the inner quarters been released yet?

I have never heard of a coffin being buried before

The women in the inner quarters had to go and mourn every day.

After burial, it must continue

I've been a vegetarian and chanting scriptures for quite some time.

A little girl following such an old man

Where does true affection come from?

I still have to cry every day

That's the rule.

You have to cry even if you can't.

So, after enduring these two months...

Zhao Ruxin has probably lost all her temper.

Don't let Xiao Lei's words get out.

Don't worry, Auntie, I know what's important.

It's no use not mentioning it.

It's gone viral outside.

What's going viral?

Ru Xin becoming a concubine to Master Qian

How could only a few of us know the truth?

Wasn't the old house a secret all along?

I only heard about it today.

People in the village are already talking about it.

But someone has to be the first to tell the truth.

It's not milk, is it?

Your grandma shouldn't be able to speak that fast, right?

father

If it really was Grandma who said it.

This time, he's probably in big trouble.

It's already gone viral outside.

It's really what Grandma said.

Uncle Shunzi told me

It first came from Aunt Zhu and Aunt Lin's side.

They're best friends with your grandma.

I heard rumors about it before Zhao Di and Xiao Ding last time.

Milk really knows how to pick people

The two most talkative people in the whole village

She even dared to tell people secrets

Do you know about the old house now?

They probably don't know yet.

Who would go up and ask in person?

Did they sell their granddaughter?

Once you know

Milk is definitely going to be served this time.

Your grandpa cares most about his reputation.

This matter has also affected the reputation of the first wife's family.

Even if he gets beaten, he won't be allowed to run around and cause trouble.

What if the milk comes to our house again?

Don't worry, your grandpa won't let her go out this time.

Chinese New Year is just around the corner

Xiao Lei didn't get a single penny back.

What should we do if we have less and less money?

I've looked for it several times.

His house has now become the Zhao family's sugar workshop.

You can't see anyone during the day.

Then go to Zhao's house to block the road.

Can you please stop bothering him?

When you make a fuss

Fifth Brother is ignoring us again.

I still haven't recovered from what happened last time.

Money can be earned back even if it's gone.

Who will take care of us after our brothers are gone?

Have you two not grown back to your old brains yet?

The most important thing is the place where the candy is sold.

The town the village chief assigned to us was small and poor.

Others earn tens of coins a day

We used to only earn a few coins a day.

It's all Xiao Lei's fault

I'm trying to find a solution.

Money is more important than face.

If all else fails

I lowered my head and looked down at him.

Dayong's family

I heard that your eldest brother's wife, Ruxin, became someone's concubine.

Really?

Who said that?

Many people in the village are spreading rumors.

Ru Xin hasn't come back for so long.

The more people thought about it, the more it seemed real.

The eldest brother and sister-in-law dote on their daughter

How could I possibly send her to be a concubine?

Furthermore, after the family split up

We rarely interact.

I don't even know where they live in the county town now.

Asking me is pointless.

But you used to have a good relationship with the Wang family.

She came back to be with her parents.

Leave after finishing your meal

I'm busy in the kitchen.

Who has time to ask about someone else's daughter's marriage?

Who said it first?

It seems to be Aunt Zhu.

Later, Aunt Lin said the same thing.

Aren't those two the closest to your mother-in-law?

Someone in the household asked me about Ruxin becoming a concubine.

Who asked?

The whole village is talking about it

The earliest ones were Aunt Zhu and Aunt Lin.

My mouth is so foul!

This can't be kept secret anymore.

Even though Dazhuzi hasn't arranged a marriage yet, his family is going to be dragged into it.

Let me go ask my parents.

My mother-in-law has probably really messed up this time.

My parents had an accident.

Something terrible has happened.

What are you yelling about?

Look how scared your dad is!

So what if I say it?

Ruxin becoming a concubine

The whole village knows

Who told you that?

No one in our family is talking about it.

Could it be the third son?

The earliest one was Aunt Zhu

It was passed down from Aunt Lin's side.

Junyi said

Hey old man, listen to me.

I haven't been visiting anyone lately.

They're just making this up.

I only mentioned it to the two of them once.

They promised me they would never tell anyone.

What did I tell you?

I didn't expect them to say that.

Everything is being exposed

Now his reputation is ruined

You'll have face.

What's going on?

Old Mrs. Sun's face was swollen from the slap.

Mom, where are you going in this freezing weather?

Come sit in my room for a while.

Get out of here, your dad's going to kill me.

I need to find the third brother.

Help me!

Call me Lao San

Help!

What a huge thing happened to the Zhao family!

What else could it be?

Didn't we just hear rumors that Zhao Dawen sold his daughter?

Eighty percent of the family scandals have been exposed.

The old man was furious.

Zhao Dayong

You are not human.

You watch your dad beat me.

Mother, didn't I stop her?

Dad was so angry

I couldn't stop it at first either.

Then why did you tell him?

Don't ask me secretly first.

How long can this be kept secret?

Chinese New Year is coming soon

Relatives from the village come and go

Dad will hear it even when he goes out.

It was already arranged at home

No one is allowed to tell anyone.

You just had to tell the two loudest mouths in the whole village.

How will Ruxin get married in the future?

Da Zhuzi's marriage will also be affected.

I thought they would really keep it a secret.

Now the whole village knows.

So what do we do now?

Please wait here.

Stop causing trouble outside.

I went to persuade my father.

I've never treated you, my second son, badly.

How could you just watch your dad hit me?

Mother, please calm down.

You run out like this now

What outsiders think of their father

He cares most about his reputation.

You don't know

I have no idea

I know nothing.

You asked me why I told Dad?

But this matter couldn't be kept secret sooner or later.

When relatives come during the Chinese New Year

Dad will always hear

I really didn't mean to.

They are my two best friends.

I said I would never tell anyone.

But now the whole village knows about Mother.

You're really wrong this time.

What should we do then?

Don't go out yet.

I'll go talk to Dad.

Let him calm down

Mother, please stay here and stop making a fuss.

Parents already know they were wrong

father

Someone come quick!

I'll go get the doctor.

Dazhuzi, go find your third uncle.

The old man also collapsed.

He was hitting someone just now.

How did I suddenly faint?

ah

Um

Hey old man

Wake up, I was wrong.

I will never talk nonsense again.

You can hit me again once you get up, it's fine.

Mother, don't shake.

We still don't know what's going on with Dad.

Will he be alright?

He had so much strength to hit me just now.

Mother, you stay here first.

Don't touch him, I'm going to boil water.

Okay, okay, I'll guard it.

Big Tree

Your mother was beaten by your father.

Was it hit hard?

I heard his face was very swollen.

Her mouth was bleeding, and she wanted to run away.

Your second brother and his wife stopped you.

They even shouted that someone was calling you for help.

That's most likely because Ruxin's affair was overlooked.

That's what everyone in the village is guessing now.

Why don't you go take a look?

go

Let them vent their anger first.

It will be quieter if I arrive later.

Third Uncle

What's wrong? Your grandma came out again.

no

My third great-uncle fainted.

Let's go back quickly.

How is your grandfather now?

I didn't know Dad told me to call him Third Uncle first.

I didn't have time to watch it.

Doctor, please hurry!

Hey hey

Make another trip to my house

Call your third aunt, Xiaoyu Lihua, and others.

good

What's the doctor like?

So what if he fainted from anger?

I've fainted before.

I've explained this before.

The old man is getting old.

Get less angry, worry less, and get some sleep.

It seems he didn't hear a word of it.

Is it serious now?

I can't treat this here.

We need to call a doctor from the county town.

So heavy

It's best not to make the patient travel.

Send a car to the county town to invite someone over.

I'll give you a few acupuncture needles first.

He should wake up in about half an hour.

Cheng Erge guarded

I'll go back and send someone now.

Father woke up

If not, I'll go back and send the best doctor in the county.

You guys hurry over there.

So serious

The village doctor said he couldn't do anything about it.

Don't just stand there, go ahead.

Uncles and aunts

Grandpa is sick now

Need quiet

Everyone, let's go back first.

Come back when he's feeling better.

Milk floor is cold

Please get up first.

If you catch a cold again, who will take care of Grandpa?

Xiaoyu, is your grandpa alright?

Wait for the doctor first

You yourself need to stay calm.

Dad, you're awake.

How does Dad feel?

It's nothing, I was just dizzy at the time.

Perhaps he was too angry.

Dad took two sips

I'm tired, I'll take a nap.

I'll go check on the old man.

Grandpa can't afford to be stimulated anymore.

You really care about him.

Don't go in yet.

Mother will wait for the county doctor to arrive before we discuss it further.

But he was already awake.

It should be fine now, right?

Doctor, how is my dad?

Rage and Bloodlust

In addition, years of worry and poor sleep

The foundation has long been lost.

This illness

All the problems that had been accumulating before suddenly surfaced.

It can be cured without any medicine.

I'm afraid my days are numbered.

How long can it last?

About ten days

Spend more time with the elderly

See whomever you want

Eat whatever you want

He was already exhausted.

Don't force-feed expensive tonics.

The body cannot tolerate tonics

father

Find two more doctors

Good Dad

I immediately instructed the housekeeper to hire several more people from the surrounding areas of the county.

I want to live, I haven't lived enough yet.

Boss

Call the boss back

Second brother

Don't run away, stay here and keep Dad company.

Um

ten days or so

It's impossible that he could have hit me with that much force just now.

How can it just disappear like that?

I went to serve him.

I know best how to take care of him when he's not feeling well.

daughter

Dad said he doesn't want to see you.

He's already like this.

He's still angry with me.

Mother, please go in now.

What if Dad gets agitated and something else happens?

Who in the clan can take on this responsibility?

The clan leader is still my father's older brother.

Then please say a few good words for me.

I truly know I was wrong.

Third brother, your elder brother has come to see you.

Why are you doing this?

My wife is muddle-headed

You can scold her or hit her, it's all fine.

Why bother with yourself?

What kind of personality does he have?

You'll spend your whole life with him and still not know...

Now it's all good.

He was still standing.

You lay down by yourself

Where is Zhao Dawen?

I sent someone to pick them up last night.

It's already the second day.

Why haven't they arrived yet?

The old man is back.

master

The old man was not picked up.

What does it mean to not pick them up?

We went to the place the old man used to rent.

The house was already empty.

I only found out by asking the neighbors.

Not long after Miss Ruxin left

The old man and his family moved away.

Nobody knows where they moved to.

Moving without even telling my own parents

A dignified scholar

Why is there not a single reliable word in your work?

He never considered that there might be an emergency at home and he wouldn't be able to find anyone.

We need to find it as soon as possible.

The old man is getting weaker every day.

Can we keep waiting?

Nobody can say for sure.

Boss

The county town is not very big

Can search door to door

Even finding it during the Chinese New Year might not be possible.

Searching all over the city

Last time my aunt came back

It's not that often in the county town

Do you see people from our village selling candy?

right

It's possible that someone from that village saw him in the county town.

Ask which street it is on.

Which intersection did you meet?

Send people to search that area again.

Better than running amok in the whole county

This method works.

I'll go ask.

There are many people selling candy

Someone must have seen Wang Shi

A clue has been found.

Several people are in the county town

I've seen Wang Shi in that area to the east.

One of them even saw her from

I came out of an alley.

I'll send someone immediately.

You should take a break too.

You've been running back and forth these past two days.

People have lost weight

Father entrusted the task of finding someone to the servants.

The most important thing for you and your second uncle now is to preserve the family business.

Know

My uncle bought a house

But they didn't leave a single address.

If the master really doesn't see him return

No one can do this for you.

Why don't you do this little bit of work yourself?

I copied books for a whole winter.

Finally got a two-day break

Shut up and wrap it up quickly.

My son will have an exam after the New Year.

Every little bit helps.

I'll buy a few pounds of sunflower seeds tomorrow.

People need some entertainment during the Chinese New Year.

Several pounds of melon seeds are free.

Chinese New Year

Can you please stop talking about money all the time?

Knock on the neighbor's door

Who knew we'd end up living here after we moved in? Ugh!

This time it's our family.

Go open the door.

Tell them to stop knocking.

The First Madam has finally found you!

The old man is seriously ill

The old man told us to come and pick up the old man's family and return to the village immediately.

What father is seriously ill?

Very sick

It took us two days to find out about this place.

Grandpa, hurry up and pack up.

The old man always thinks of you.

The dad is in trouble.

Call the child quickly

How could this be?

My father has always been in good health.

ah

Is it really that serious?

Father and son are back

Brother, keep your voice down.

Dad needs to rest now.

Don't scare him anymore.

How could Dad have become like this?

Go outside and tell them not to make noise near Dad's bed.

Second brother's father didn't always live with you?

You used to be so healthy

How did you suddenly become so sick?

Did you and your siblings not take good care of each other?

How could Dad suddenly collapse like this?

elder brother and sister-in-law

Are you blaming me for not serving Dad well?

I just wanted to clarify.

Then let me ask you too.

My parents will live with me in their old age.

My third brother still brings you grain and meat every now and then.

How far is the county town from the village?

The oxcart runs in the village every day

You don't know

He moved to a new house without even telling his parents.

Something happened at home and I couldn't find you for two days.

Now, as soon as I come back, they ask me how to take care of Dad.

I had no idea my dad would suddenly have an accident.

Want to know why Dad fell

Because the news of your selling Ruxin as a concubine has spread throughout the whole village.

Father was furious when he heard this.

First, argue with your mother.

He then fainted.

The doctor said it would only take about ten days.

But who told this story?

It's not me.

Don't worry about who said it.

Without you selling your daughter, this shameful incident wouldn't have happened.

People who can't be found

When he came back, he immediately blamed my older brother.

Where did you get the nerve?

I'll go in and see Dad.

My brother's return this time wasn't too late.

You speak really quickly.

snort

Dad hasn't left yet.

He first tried to pin the blame on me.

He's truly my good older brother.

Da Wen, you really shouldn't be so confused.

Look what you've done to your dad!

It's good that you're back.

father

My son is back

You must be well.

My son can't live without you.

I feed Dad

That older brother accompanied his father.

Let's go eat first.

father

How did you suddenly become so ill?

Your mother

He told others about Ruxin's affair.

I was furious

Really a mother

Don't pursue it.

As I left

From now on, you'll have to support this family on your own.

Father, please don't say such things.

The son doesn't want anything.

I hope you take good care of yourself.

I don't want to die either.

But the King of Hell wants people

Who can stop it?

I won't ask how I got that house in Dawen County.

But the old house cannot be sold.

The land at home cannot be sold.

That's your last resort.

I will listen to my father.

Don't do that again.

As long as Dad is alive, he can still think of you.

What did Dad say to you?

As I wish

It was Mother who let it slip.

When Dad disciplines Mom

Blood and Qi surge upward

He fell ill immediately

Has my mother-in-law gone mad?

That was her granddaughter.

What I did has already spread.

It's no use blaming anyone now.

Dad is still lying down

Let's stop arguing.

Dad also said

He wanted to see Ru Xin before he left.

What should we do then?

The Qian family is still observing mourning.

Father was going to ask his third brother for a solution.

Eldest brother, is your dad awake yet?

It's not good to be awake.

When you go in, say a few good words for your mother.

I truly know I was wrong.

I want to go in and take care of him.

daughter

Dad can't be stressed right now.

Please don't go yet.

I spent my whole life with him.

He really got to this point

How can you not let me see you?

You told him

I don't argue or talk back.

He was right next to her, bringing her water and feeding her.

I see

Third son

Dad, I'm here.

Father before his death

I still want to see Ruxin again.

Third son

Father wanted to see Ruxin one last time.

Dad, I don't know the Qian family.

That is, Ru Xin's third uncle

I went directly to their door.

They might not give you face.

Then think of a solution.

Is there a way to get the older brother to go by himself?

Didn't my older brother always say he was close to the Qian family?

He can use my mule cart.

Let him and his sister-in-law go and explain the situation in person.

Just say that Grandpa is critically ill.

I want to see my granddaughter one last time.

If Mrs. Qian were reasonable

They will naturally release them.

You can't

That's settled.

Dad, please rest well.

Maybe when I open my eyes tomorrow morning

Ruxin is home.

The eldest brother's father wanted to see Ruxin.

The car is already covered.

Go to the Qian family to pick them up now.

It's so late now

How much longer can Dad wait?

Nobody knows

I'll go too

The Qian family is holding a funeral.

Will we be able to see anyone if we go like this?

Whether you can see me or not is your business.

I have conveyed my father's wish.

The car was also given.

Zhao Xiucai

Coming at this time is

We were shocked to hear of Mr. Qian's unfortunate passing.

The old man in the family is also critically ill.

Before leaving, I only wanted to see Ruxin one last time.

Please inform Mrs. Qian.

Old Master Zhao is really dying.

They shouldn't dare lie about something like this.

Then call Zhao Ruxin over.

They were originally going to let him go.

To avoid further delay

What if he doesn't want to?

Unwilling to go home

Go to Anli according to the previous rules.

The Qian family wouldn't keep a courtyard full of idle people.

Your parents are outside

Your grandfather is critically ill

Go back and fulfill your filial duties.

This 50 taels is severance pay.

This is also the money you've earned from serving the master all these days.

After going out this door

You don't need to go back to the Qian family anymore.

Madam, may I go back and pack my things?

The master rewarded me with jewelry and clothes.

What did you bring from the Zhao family when you came in?

What you eat, wear, and use at the Qian family

They all belong to the Qian family.

50 taels is already a generous gift for you.

Those were gifts from the master.

Either take the silver home

Those who stay will be sent away in a few days.

Go to the nunnery to chant sutras for the master.

I'm leaving.

A while ago I was thinking of having a child with Mr. Qian's help.

To gain a foothold in this house

Only now do I realize

So-called favor can vanish in an instant.

The only thing I can take out is this purse.

As you wish

daughter

Your things?

Why didn't you bring anything?

Qian family's things

Of course, it stayed with the Qian family.

Ruxin, this is our newly purchased house.

You'll live here from now on too.

Your mother has already tidied up your room.

This house was bought with the money from selling me.

Quickly change your clothes

Don't keep your grandpa waiting.

Mother, you go out first.

I'll change it myself.

Money left in your parents' hands will only turn into a house.

My brother's hundreds of millions

Household expenses

Only what I hold in my own hands is truly mine.

After watching your grandpa

Do we still need to go back to the Qian residence?

The master is gone.

What to do with it?

I can't go back.

Mrs. Qian made it very clear.

After leaving, I had no further connection with the Qian family.

What about the jewelry and gold and silver that the master used to give you?

All left

The Qian family didn't let you bring anything.

It wasn't mine to begin with.

Wearing

It looks like my own when I wear it on my head.

When it's really time to leave

They can take it all back with just a word.

Not a single one given

Dad, what kind of money are we talking about, family?

To put it nicely, she was a concubine.

To put it bluntly, it's the inner quarters of the household.

servants who serve their masters

Food, clothing, and jewelry all belong to the master.

They can take it whenever they want.

But you've served him for so long

I can walk out the door alive

Already considered lucky

Some died in the back courtyard.

Who speaks for them?

He's really back.

It seems that what was said earlier was probably true.

Don't get too close to him

There are all sorts of rumors circulating outside these days.

Mother, he's not a plague patient.

Reputation

Getting involved is very troublesome.

Listen to your mother this once.

What are you still doing standing outside?

Hurry up and go inside

Isn't our family shameful enough?

Did I do the bad thing by myself?

How can the person who sold me not feel ashamed?

You still talk back

My parents are still resting

You won't be satisfied until you wake him up.

If you keep causing trouble, I'll really send you back to the Sun family.

I don't go out and bother people.

Call me again when it's time to eat.

Father Ruxin is back

Haven't you been longing to see her?

It's good that the person came back and then disappeared.

Really not seen

Let him stay at home

Don't go outside

Dad, are you feeling better?

Go and call your mother.

Old man, you've finally agreed to see me.

These past few days have been awful for me.

Why are you so useless?

I was the one who got beaten.

It's you who fell down.

Shut up

listen to me

If I really leave

How will you live from now on?

Have you thought about it?

I definitely can't go with you.

I haven't lived enough.

I'm asking who you'll spend your life with in the future.

Nobody follows

I want to live alone

He made his three sons provide him with food and silver every month.

I don't want to farm the land anymore, I'll sell it.

Keep some money for self-defense

Living alone

No one would know if I collapsed in the house one day.

So what do you suggest we do?

You can build your own little courtyard.

Let your sons take turns giving you food and silver.

Ask the third son for a servant to wait on him.

This is good.

But don't choose someone too old.

It's best to be in your 30s and still have good dexterity.

What if someone gets too old to work before me?

I need to find someone else.

what ever

Our land

I'll leave my share for the eldest.

The silver in hand

My portion will be divided into two.

You get one, the boss gets one.

What about the second child?

When dividing the family property, he should be responsible for his care in his old age.

Now he has no share of the land or the silver.

His three sons also bear a heavy burden.

I can't care about that.

It's even harder being the eldest.

Aren't you afraid your second son will feel disheartened?

They won't even let you burn paper money anymore.

Think what you want.

You're already like this.

They only worry about the eldest son.

I don't need to worry about the third one.

He has everything he needs.

The second son and his wife are hardworking and will never starve.

What I can't let go of the most is my boss.

Their family's reputation is ruined.

None of the three children were very good at farm work.

When will I really go back to the village to live a normal life?

Who will do the work in the fields?

Da Wen can copy books

Can also teach

The two children can also learn in the future

Some people have already bought new houses in the county town.

They didn't tell us where we were staying.

You won't be able to see whether things are good or bad in the future.

At least I'm definitely living a better life than you right now.

You can leave.

I need some peace and quiet.

Can I stay and take care of you?

The villagers now look at me like I'm a murderer.

Let me serve you for a few days

Less gossip

You can shut up if you want.

Fine, you don't like to hear the truth.

I won't say it.

Mother, take Pear Blossom to sleep for a while.

So what if I'm not sleepy?

Grandpa couldn't even speak a few days ago.

I suddenly felt able to eat and talk a lot today.

I can still see so many people

This is too abnormal.

you mean

Like a final burst of energy

Regardless of whether or not

Let's go to sleep first.

Something really happened later.

At least you need to have the spirit to hold on.

Zhao Die

It's okay, your sister is here.

Ahhh

Old man, why did you really leave me behind?

Hahaha

My brother-in-law died

If I say that Grandpa is gone

Grandpa is gone

Old Zhao's life hasn't been easy either.

He suffered hardship when he was young.

The whole family pulled together

It was truly bitter.

But his heart was truly biased.

The best things are always given to the eldest brother first.

The second and third sons were also biological sons.

My whole life was off-track

In the end, the family fell apart.

Alas, people are pitiful.

But some suffering is something we create little by little ourselves.

Dad originally planned to retire next year.

Now that the old man is gone

Cannot take exams during the mourning period

The exam can only be postponed.

It would be good to study for a few more years.

Then the students who were once students will gradually progress to the next level.

I've cried almost all my tears have dried up.

Dad, your daughter is late.

Mother, how much longer do I have to kneel?

From vigil to funeral

I have to cry a few times when people come.

What to do if you can't cry

Even just letting out a couple of howls with your head down would be fine.

old man

What is the purpose of life?

father

Today isn't the first 7 days.

Don't come back looking for me.

I'll burn more paper money for you.

Buy whatever you need downstairs yourself.

No, I can't guard it alone.

Rise and kneel

old man

Dad, don't go.

Who will care about me after you leave?

Fighting all my life

I've calculated it all my life.

In the end, it's nothing more than a handful of yellow earth.

eldest, second, and third sons

They'll all be back tomorrow morning.

Not one less

What's up?

Your father has been buried

It's time to talk about what he left behind.

Dad, your belly is louder than the street vendors' shouts!

People are shouting about making money

He kept saying he wanted to spend money.

Chelai Snacks

Go inside and have something to eat

This is what Dad likes to hear.

The two of you are sitting inside.

What to eat

Two bowls of wontons

Two tea eggs

Another plate of dried tofu

Okay

Here

Xiaoyu, is it really that slow to serve the food?

Why is it as slow as takeout?

Is takeout a real option?

Imperial Jade Liquor

180 cups

We didn't order any alcohol.

Odd changes, even remains the same

Sign indicates quadrant

fellow villagers

Fellow villager, did you travel through time alone?

My parents came.

A family of three

Neat and tidy

Good grief, you even brought family members with you when you time-traveled!

Since we're all from the same hometown

So, can this meal be...?

Fellow villagers are fellow villagers

Don't forget before meals

Hey, I understood that sentence right away!

My old friends who enjoy watching me tinker

Today I'm going to introduce you to a new fellow villager.

I am Chun Ya

Others travel through time to see a person

I came with my family of three.

What should a family of three do if they end up in a poor family?

Open a food stall and make delicious food

The whole family works together to make money

Turn poverty into prosperity

Want to see how this family turns their fortunes around?

Come and see Springfield Wedding

The whole family's turnaround is incredibly satisfying!

Please remember to click to bookmark and make a reservation.

Xiaoyu, your fellow villager said you should pay for the meal.

After the Xiao family turmoil subsided

Zhao Xiaoyu's family relies on ginseng

Maltose makes life more and more prosperous

Zhao Ruxin, however, was trapped by money.

Only after the master died did he finally escape.

Who knew that Old Madam Sun would take her again

The news of her becoming a concubine spread.

Old Zhao fell ill from anger.

He eventually passed away.

My father was buried

If you're not going to help, then fine.

They're too lazy to even pretend.

The whole clan is laughing at me.

The people were buried

What else do you want?

Xiao Lei

ah

Did Xiaoyu get hurt?

You bumped your back.

fine

He was so unsteady on his feet but he was still okay.

If you can run, you're fine.

The trees there are dense

Let me see which way to go first.

Don't bear it all alone.

Walk over

Mother, you slept in your second brother's room last night.

Your father is gone.

I'm afraid to sleep alone.

I spent the night with my second brother's family last night.

Have you had breakfast?

Your grandma suddenly showed concern for me.

Is she trying to trick me again?

Dad, don't be afraid

Grandparents gone

You're really outsmartable.

Old Yang these years

The second wife should get a larger share.

Cough cough, your father gave instructions before he passed away

How should we divide what he left behind?

I'm alive

I'll keep my things myself for now.

We all listen to our mother.

Listen to your mother

Your father doesn't have much of his own.

It is earth silver

There are also old houses

The two rooms where my wife and I live will not be divided for the time being.

I still need to stay

That's right.

I rarely get my father's things.

The money your father saved

A total of 31 taels

These 312 are divided into two portions.

I've been living a comfortable retirement in my old house for the past few years.

Now they actually want to split it equally with their older brother.

Didn't Dad say he'd leave me more?

Half for each person

Please, dear readers, help me by adding this to your favorites!

Please follow me!

If this continues, there won't be any rice left to cook.

Our film crew is about to disband.

The silver was divided into two portions, one for me.

One for the eldest

daughter

None of mine

This is what your father told you before he passed away.

I just did as he said.

That slap from Dad was enough for my second brother to remember for a lifetime.

Also, the land that your father and I own will be divided into two parts.

I'll keep my share for myself.

His share was given to the boss.

No silver

There is no land

Dad is so thoughtful.

The second brother's family is responsible for providing for their elderly parents.

This kind of division is too hurtful.

Second brother, do you have any objections?

No objection

I'll be biased my whole life

Even on the verge of death, he still showed favoritism.

Shut up, the person's gone, don't say anything more.

Serving you for so many years

So it turns out I'm just a free servant in my old age.

I won't get involved in my second brother's matter.

But I understand that you're hurting.

No need to comfort me

The things belong to him.

He can give it to whomever he wants.

I also have a piece of land

I'm planning to sell it.

Do you want to buy the second child?

Hmph, I won't get any of the things they give you.

I'm the first person you think of when you need money.

Selling land to outsiders is also selling.

Wouldn't it be better to stay with the Zhao family?

I have no money.

Third brother, are you going to buy it or not?

Mother, I have no plans to buy land.

Your father's things have all been divided up.

Now, let me tell you my story.

I no longer live in the old house.

I want to build my own small courtyard.

Mother, you need to move out.

I want to live in a brick and tile house

It needs to be warm in winter

Buy another one around 30 years old

A quick-witted woman served me.

Expenses of housing and people

You three brothers split it equally.

daughter

A small courtyard with furniture

Even a few dozen taels might not be enough.

My family really can't afford it.

I've raised you for decades

Isn't it worth more than a house?

I can only pay the maximum amount to buy the servant.

That's all.

Your family is in trouble

You pay 6 taels

I'll make up the rest myself.

Both houses and people are one-off transactions.

You'll have an easier time from now on.

The eldest and second eldest sons each receive 240 coins a year for retirement.

Third brother, you have too much money (60 coins)

300 coins a year

Holidays and festivals are charged separately.

Okay, no problem.

Milk has figured it out.

I don't rely on anyone

Living alone is the most comfortable

Mother is living well in the old house.

Why spend another few dozen taels?

You're staying at your second brother's place.

He can also take care of you.

No, I want to live by myself.

Then going to my third brother's house is fine too.

There are many people in his family

Good food and good accommodation

Big Brother

You really know how to arrange things for me.

I'd rather die than go to Lao San's house.

Eldest brother, how about I come stay at your new house in the county town?

The county town is very lively.

I'm going to enjoy some good time.

Mother is not a son who is unfilial

Even living in the county town, I still have to spend money everywhere.

I'll contribute more.

1210 taels will build you a house

Your father just left you silver and land.

Why are you complaining to me about being poor?

I'm not going to argue with you.

Two choices

Either I'll come and stay at your home in the county town.

Either you pay 20 taels

Okay, that's settled.

The middle of the village was bustling with activity.

Construction will begin in the spring.

Big brother, second brother, don't go yet!

There's still one account we haven't settled.

What account?

Father is seriously ill, please ask the doctor to prescribe medicine.

And the money for food, drinks, and funeral expenses these next few days.

Father had three sons

I can't pay for everything myself.

The third brother knew all along that we would have to contribute money.

We can't spend like this these next few days.

Second brother

You and your older brother always say that Dad has worked hard his whole life.

Eat well

Use good medicine

Funerals should also be dignified.

Now that it's time to pay, they complain it's too expensive.

The old man's expenses should be...

Your three sons came out together

The village doctor charged 600 coins for three days, but now he wants 370 coins.

Five doctors in the county town cost 860 wen.

One tael and two mace

73 taels of ginseng

23 chickens and 70 catties of pork

Total 121 taels and 7 mace

Third brother and eldest brother really have no money.

How about my second brother and I each give two ounces?

Meaning

You're giving me two taels of silver to get rid of a beggar?

I have money, but I earned it myself.

I left with nothing when the family property was divided.

He didn't take a single penny.

Does having money mean I'm destined to suffer losses?

If you don't have cash, just leave the land deed with me.

When will you pay it off?

When will you take it back?

Why are you mortgaging my land title?

Then I'll call my clansmen to judge this matter.

See which family's son even has his own father's

They refused to pay for medicine and funeral expenses.

I'll give you 20 taels first.

The rest is owed

We'll talk about it later.

Third brother, when will my house be built?

daughter

I can ask about the foundation first.

When will the money that my eldest and second brothers are supposed to contribute arrive?

Let's start work whenever we want.

Can't we just cover it up first?

The money cannot be insufficient.

What to use to start work

Can't we cover it first?

The eldest and second eldest brothers won't cheat you out of your money.

Since they won't default on the money

Then give it to me first.

If you, brother, find it troublesome to go back and forth...

I can also send someone to the county town to get it.

Let's go clear the land!

Money can be earned back.

Our household is almost completely drained.

Will Sanzhuzi still go to school after the New Year?

Even if it means selling everything, you still have to study it.

Dazhu will sell vegetables with me from now on.

Erzhuzi and your mother are clearing land.

Sanzhuzi continued his studies

Let's first support a scholar to pass the imperial examination.

Show is nothing

Look at what my older brother has accomplished.

If you're going to take the exam, take it to become a Juren (a successful candidate in the provincial-level imperial examinations).

Those who passed the imperial examinations could be exempt from more land taxes.

They still have the qualifications to become officials.

I want everyone to see

My branch of the family, Zhao Dayong's, isn't the most useless.

I also want to study

But my father didn't even ask me.

In the past, our family always paid for Dad's medical treatment.

Why are you insisting on arguing with your eldest and second brothers this time?

I used to sell

It's my choice

These past few days, all they talk about is buying and eating good food.

A decent funeral

Anyway, it's not like I'm spending their money.

I don't feel sorry for you.

When dividing the family property...

One by one they say I'm rich

Why should I give up this much when I don't need it?

I didn't take a single penny when the family property was divided.

My father isn't just my father.

Why should I pay for everything myself?

This time, Dad and they felt pain.

I won't dare to take advantage of you anymore.

I'm not angry.

They are the ones who are feeling bad today.

They are the ones who can't sleep at night.

Waaaaah

I always thought

My father was the one who loved me the least.

I only found out now.

Besides her eldest brother, she had no other thoughts in her heart.

I'm afraid there's no one else.

I won't be going back to the county town for a while.

Both the first and second seven days after death must be spent at home.

I'll leave after the school starts.

What about the grain?

The second wife definitely wouldn't support us for nothing.

I went to ask my mother.

Let's team up with her

Mother, I'll stay here with you these next few days.

The eldest son is still the most filial.

Let's eat together these next few days.

I have food

daughter

Are you still selling your land?

I'm not selling anymore. Last night I dreamt your dad was calling me stupid.

Leave the land for someone to cultivate.

At least you'll never lack food for the rest of your life.

I won't sleep in that room either.

I'm afraid your dad will come back in the middle of the night and ask me to go downstairs and keep him company.

My daughter understands

You sleep with Ruxin at night

Xiao Lei is here

During our mourning period, we can only eat vegetarian food.

Auntie will cook you some meat dishes.

Aunt doesn't need to do it separately.

I eat the same food as you.

You don't have to observe mourning.

Why bother going vegetarian?

It's fine for the whole family to eat the same things.

Wow

single person was

Eating vegetarian food is good!

Eating some vegetables is good for cleansing the stomach and intestines.

Alright, he's a live-in son-in-law.

You didn't lose your daughter.

How have you been these past few days, Mom?

I'm so grateful that your older brother's family stayed with me.

Your older brother is so filial.

Since the eldest brother is so filial

He will return to the county town after the New Year.

Mother, you should come and stay with us for a while too.

The county town is bustling

Your sister-in-law and Ru Xin can still accompany you shopping.

Last year, I went with my boss.

You and the second child should keep an eye on the new house.

Pick me up after you've covered it up.

Your older brother and sister-in-law just praised you.

You said you were afraid she would be lonely.

One family stayed behind to keep her company.

You truly deserve to be called a scholar.

My second brother and I should both learn from you.

Being filial to one's parents is what every child should do.

Father is gone

The only person I can be filial to now is my mother.

From now on, I will treat my mother a hundred times, a thousand times better than before.

Large text

Your mother's love for you was not in vain.

Well said, brother.

You absolutely must keep it up.

Of course, Mother

Just wait and see how I'll take care of you in the future.

Mmm, this tastes good.

This is a bag from the third brother's family.

I added some peanut oil to the filling.

Vegetarian dishes are also delicious

Nobody should leave tonight.

Your dad is only a few days old

In case they come back to visit

The whole family must be together

Staying up on New Year's Eve is fine.

Stop mentioning your father.

Mother's melon seeds cause internal heat

Eat something else

Waiting

My son Sanzhu will definitely be successful in the future.

My third brother's wife really likes your family's food and lodging.

Why don't you let Mom stay at your house?

There are many people in your family

They were also very attentive.

I'd rather die than go to Lao San's house.

That's perfect, Mother is going to stay at my eldest brother's new house in the county town.

The county town is bustling

The eldest sister-in-law and Ruxin accompanied her.

My older brother can also come home to take care of his parents after finishing his teaching every day.

Mother worked hard all her life

It's time to go to the county town and enjoy some good life.

The eldest brother is the most filial.

I'll leave this to you.

We are all at ease

Boss

Can I stay at your place for a few months?

Neighbors in Niang County don't visit each other often.

I'm worried you won't be used to it.

Brother, didn't you say something about later before the meal?

Be a hundred times, a thousand times better to your mother

Was it just a joke?

Of course I want my mother to live in the county town.

I'm just worried she won't get used to it.

If Mom gets bored living in the county town

My elder brother asked someone to pass on a message

I sent a car to pick me up.

Tired of living in the village

It would be so much more convenient to send it over again.

Third brother is right.

Mother wants to go after the New Year

I welcome you anytime.

No need to do it anytime

After the New Year, you go back to the county town

I'll go with you.

Second and third sons

When I'm not around

I need to keep a close eye on the new house.

Mother, rest assured

We need to save some money for retirement.

Don't put all the blame on the children.

I really can't move while lying on the kang (heated brick bed)

It's really hard to say who is filial and who is not.

It's time to leave yourself a way out.

My mother went to the county town later.

He won't still sleep with me every day, will he?

It's all your dad's fault for being so talkative.

Such thick snow

They still insisted on going into the mountains.

Just wander around the old hunting road near the village

Xiao Lei taught me to recognize footprints

I also need to familiarize myself with the route.

I won't wander off when I go up the mountain to find herbs anymore.

Not going deeper

Return after the grain season has passed

Arrive home before noon

If something seems wrong, turn back.

Don't think you can touch anything just because you have a bow.

I know to listen to him and not run around.

Two mouthfuls on the road

If your hands are frozen, come back; don't push yourself.

This also comes with

I'll wait for you two to have lunch at noon.

I heard it clearly, there are two.

Not one less

Look at the road ahead

I'm not a pear blossom

It won't be lost in the blink of an eye.

I know, but I promised Uncle Zhao.

You've been mentioning my dad the whole way.

He wants you to stand at the door, so you stand there too.

snort

This is a rabbit.

pheasant

You can even tell that?

Rabbit's hind legs are long

The marks left behind are different

There won't be any meat at home anymore.

I'll just throw you up the mountain.

They shouldn't starve to death in a day.

If there's a good harvest, I'll sell it first.

The family is still observing mourning.

We can't let Uncle Zhao and the others get greedy.

I'm talking about the future.

I went back to eat vegetarian dumplings at noon today.

Don't move

Bear

It is a mountain king

ah

The rabbit doesn't want to go.

I hadn't noticed these footprints before.

The fact that the snow just stopped means he just passed by here.

We didn't go in.

How did he get here?

Don't worry about this for now.

Go back in our own footprints

There's another opening at the back.

Suppress the bleeding before proceeding.

Leave me alone

Shut up and say it hurts.

It doesn't hurt

Do you feel like...?

This makes him look especially like a man.

It was originally

Why did you come back to wait?

You can clearly run by yourself.

I promised Uncle Zhao.

What to promise

Protect you

My dad asked you to protect him.

You don't even care about your life

Not because of Uncle Zhao

I want to protect you.

Then you have to let me protect you.

Tell me if you get hurt.

Passing through the trees

You go first.

Together

Zhao Xiaoyu, listen to me.

I used to be slow

Let's go up together.

The mountain tiger pounces

No one can survive

I'll go pick you up first.

Don't take advantage of my absence

He carried everything on his own.

You go first.

So what will you do?

I have a way

Then let's do as we say.

Once I've established myself on the other side

Come here immediately.

obedient

No

Come on!

Xiao Lei, come here.

Come here quickly!

Grab your right foot, step on the rock, and push up.

ah

Where are you hurt?

Are you stupid?

What if you hadn't jumped over?

Then you can go back first.

Who wants to go back alone?

If you dare let me run first again

I'll break your legs first.

good

What's so good about it?

Let's run together next time

Can it still run?

able

What are you waiting for?

run

arrive

It's not until you get inside the house that it counts.

I said I'd just wander around the perimeter.

What time is it?

I went a little further towards the village entrance to greet them.

You stay at home and watch over things.

Don't let them come back and not be able to find you.

You should also be careful.

Don't make me worry anymore.

What happened?

Fall

Tree scraping

One said to fall

One said the tree was scratched

Mother, hurry and get the medicine.

Xiao Lei bled a lot.

Where did you two go?

I really didn't go anywhere.

Dad's 7th birthday today

Come back and visit us.

Mother, do we still have to kneel here tonight?

It means I can't go to bed early tonight.

It is said that the seventh day after death is the first day of death.

Those who leave will come back to see the family they miss most.

Come down and keep me company

Ah, I won't accompany you.

I won't go with you.

Ruxin, what's wrong?

We'll talk about it when we get back.

Ahhh

Where are you going?

go home

They even visited the grave.

The paper was also burned.

What's the point of keeping this here?

Today is the seventh day after my father's death.

I still have to keep watch at night.

You must stay

Enough is enough, if you don't want to stay, then get out.

Don't make a scene in front of my house

This lousy place is a place anyone can stay in.

Hurry inside, your pants are soaked, put on mine.

daughter

Your cotton-padded pants are really warm.

Your third brother made it for me.

My husband's family doesn't like me.

My brothers from my maternal family don't care about me either.

Who can I rely on in the future?

Let's just get through this.

But why haven't you gotten pregnant at all these past few years?

Seeing a doctor is the right thing to do.

Seeing a doctor also costs money.

Where would I get money?

My parents' money has all been distributed.

How much money do you have left?

Plus my own private savings

After building the new house, I bought a house.

There are still more than 50 taels left.

More than 50 mothers

I am your most beloved little daughter.

Now we don't even have money for medical treatment.

One or two

Spend money wisely.

Mother, you have more than 50 taels in your hand

Give me one or two.

I still need to support myself in my old age, build a house, and have food and drink.

Which one is free?

Remember to change back into your cotton-padded trousers when you leave.

Don't wear this one!

Um

father

Today is the seventh day after his death.

If you really come back

Just look at me

it's over

Grandma, sleep with me tonight.

A large number of people have strong yang energy

Good wheat flowers also come

Let the three of us squeeze in.

Babies, thank you all for liking to dress up as a peasant girl.

Raising kids and farming is incredibly fun and exciting!

The next season is currently in rapid production.

More exciting things to come!

Remember to click to reserve and add to your favorites!

daughter

daughter

Grandpa Qian is going to catch up with me now.

He should be looking for his wife.

What do you want?

He dreamed of it on the seventh night after his death.

He smiled and asked me if I wanted to go down and keep him company.

I won't agree.

His face suddenly turned extremely fierce.

I've been dreaming about him again these past few nights.

He kept calling me to come down and stay with him.

Don't be afraid that the living can be bullied by the dead.

Tomorrow, your mother will take you to the temple to burn incense.

Seeking a peace charm

Mom, I'm scared if you sleep with me tonight.

Something terrible has happened to the head of the household.

Big things happen all the time

The sky didn't collapse.

I'm not counting on your dad anymore.

Tomorrow, my daughter and I will go burn incense ourselves.

I'll go burn incense too.

I also need to ask for two peace charms.

Xingniang, get up early tomorrow

The oxcart won't wait.

Why ride an oxcart?

Da Wen went to tell Lao San

He should send a mule cart to pick me up.

The temple was most lively during my father's Chinese New Year.

Let's go burn incense too.

Achoo!

Okay, let's all go.

My mother wants the foundation in the center of the village.

The space doesn't need to be big

Just for the fun

It makes it convenient for her to visit other people's homes.

There is no vacant land in the county town.

I'll go ask Old Liu's family.

They were thinking of moving to the end of the village.

If they're willing to sell

Selling it to your mother is just right

Our family has had a lot of bad luck these past two years.

Maybe it's just that my heart wasn't sincere enough.

Let's go burn incense tomorrow too.

Go find Lao San together.

Two cars couldn't fit everyone.

I'll go borrow another car from Shunzi's house.

The eldest and second eldest brothers each rode in a car

Mother, do you want to stay with your eldest brother or your second brother?

I'll sit with you.

Mother, walk slowly.

Why is he here?

He is my future son-in-law.

Why can't I come?

Hmph, your car is still the most comfortable to ride in.

Don't choke on your milk or tea.

What can you drink from such a small cup?

Third brother, you're a grown man, don't be so stingy.

Mother is right

Mother's pastries weren't wasted.

Walked faster than me

I haven't eaten.

Come up quickly

You should start worshipping gods and Buddhas early.

The earlier the better

So many people came to worship

This means the temple must be very powerful.

It seems like this is the only temple nearby.

There are definitely many people.

Shut up, you brat!

Don't speak carelessly in front of gods and Buddhas

Once inside, just kowtow and don't speak.

May the Bodhisattva protect you.

Don't let me dream about Mr. Qian again.

Now I feel at ease.

Xiaoyu told me to take the imperial examination for the lowest degree three years from now.

He really thinks I'm a literary genius.

Dad, finish reading today's book first.

The county town is really not as lively as the village.

I have to go to school again.

You were afraid you wouldn't be used to the place.

If I don't like living here, I'll come back myself.

You still don't want me to go.

I'm going to the county town.

Nobody can stop me.

Da Wen, let's eat here for lunch.

Mother, this place is expensive

We can't afford it

Don't you earn money by teaching?

He still copies books every day

I can't even get a meal.

Why

Waiter, bring out your best food!

Mother, we are still in the mourning period.

Cannot eat meat

Milk insisted on going to such a nice restaurant

As a result, the family only ate two plates of vegetarian dishes.

Dad, you said whoever reads well can continue reading.

I want to study

No, my family can't afford three.

You and your second child are getting old.

He should help earn money for his family.

From now on, supply the three gangs

Why him?

You guys work for a few years first

Wait for the three gangs to rise to prominence

I'll come back to help you.

Work for a few years

father

How many years have you served your uncle like a slave?

What did I ultimately get?

Before his death, the grandfather gave all his silver and land to his eldest uncle.

You've learned your lesson

Now he's lying to his son.

I don't offer it either.

Either read them all

Either don't read them at all

Eldest son, you and your dad should make more money selling vegetables.

After the mourning period is over

You and your second son both need to get married.

The money you earn is for your own use.

No matter how much I earn, I'll still hand it all over to you.

Then they'll just say they have no money at home.

What can I do?

I will accept it if you don't confess.

I studied at home by myself

No flower bouquet repair

If I don't understand something, I'll ask the Master myself.

There's a ton of work at home

You two study all day, who does the work?

They won't let me read

You want me to earn money to support Sanzhuzi? That's impossible.

Parents, if you don't support me and my older brother, we will accept it.

But my third brother went to school

We only study at home by ourselves.

Not a bouquet embroidery

Why not?

So much work at home

Your father and I worked ourselves to the bone.

Is it appropriate for you to sit indoors with books in your arms?

Finish the chores at home.

You can miss me whenever you have free time, I don't care.

Book for my third brother

Paper and ink were also given to the third brother.

What will we use to read after we finish our work?

Write on the ground with your finger?

Dad, we are also your sons.

You can't be this biased!

No money at home

Your grandma wants to build a house.

Your grandfather's funeral also cost so much.

What can I do?

Even without these things

You weren't planning to provide for us either.

The silver was intended for Sanzhuzi from the very beginning.

Sanzhuzi won't have a father to look after him like your uncle will.

He'll definitely help you if he becomes successful.

I only feel at ease when you're watching over me.

Even on his deathbed, Grandpa only thought of his eldest uncle.

Besides, Sanzhuzi is simply not cut out for studying.

In the end, it will all be a futile effort.

Who cares about your help?

Wait until I read it out

You kneel down and beg me

I find you all disgusting.

Why are you so clueless? Shut up!

From now on, I'll rely on myself.

Don't count on me either.

Younger brother, I want to make money.

Saving up a dowry for herself

Parents' money is all going to Sanzhuzi.

Wait for me to get married

I'm afraid he doesn't have a single penny of his own savings.

Why are you looking for me?

Because you keep your mouth shut

And reliable

I'll think of a solution.

But there is one rule

No one can tell

Neither parents nor children will do.

I understand.

What did your mother tell you?

If you can't say nice things, just shut up.

You've managed to offend both of your older brothers to death.

They say I'm stupid every day.

They said I wasn't cut out for studying.

They're spreading rumors about me everywhere in the school.

Nobody wants to play with me.

They really bullied you like that?

Even the teacher doesn't like me.

If you recite it wrong, you'll get a slap on the hand.

If it weren't for my dad forcing me...

I don't want to study.

I'd rather go steal bird eggs.

Stop pressuring the boss.

That child is thoughtful

Pushing us too far will only make them hate us more.

But where would the family get any money?

younger children studying

The eldest is getting married

Your mother still needs to build a house.

We'll start clearing the land tomorrow.

Multiple vegetables and multiple pigs

After Mother moved out

Raise more chickens

The money spent

I'll earn it back one by one.

After this family

We'll support ourselves.

Why is Lao Zhang blocking me?

No classes today

Classes will continue as scheduled, Master Zhao, you wait...

I'll go and ask the dean.

Heh, it's nothing.

I have taught at this school for many years.

The dean and I have a long-standing friendship.

Brother Zhao, the teacher in your class has changed.

You don't need to come after the New Year.

What do you mean? I didn't teach well.

You want to fire me

It's not just my opinion.

Many parents said

A teacher who educates children must not be morally flawed.

You continue teaching

They transferred the child away.

Where has my character gone wrong?

Please explain yourself clearly.

Mr. Qian's funeral at the end of the year

How many people went to the county town?

They saw your daughter.

You, a scholar

Sending her own daughter to an old man as a concubine

The news has spread throughout the entire county.

Who would dare entrust their child to you for education?

Ru Xin's affair spread

Let's find another way to make a living.

Don't come again.

My job is gone.

Dad, we're really not going back to school.

The exam is coming up soon.

Go home first, I'll teach you myself.

Besides the two scholars, there were also two other students in that school.

The rest are all about the learning of children.

I'm no worse than them

Will any colleges still accept us after that?

That old woman from the Qian family deliberately let Ruxin show her face.

Intentionally harming us

Why are you back, my dear?

Isn't today the first day of school?

Nyonda was dismissed from school

I can't teach anymore.

Saying these things at the door

Are you afraid others won't hear you?

snort

Why

What exactly happened?

Is there anything I can't hear?

I was fired from the school.

When the Qian family held a funeral

Someone recognized Nina Wang

Knowing that I sent my daughter to be a concubine

My parents said I have bad character.

They won't let me teach the children.

Oh dear, why didn't you cover your face with a veil back then?

This has really put your dad in a terrible position.

Milk

Madam Qian forced me to cry at every funeral.

My knees are swollen from kneeling.

Will she make me cover my face?

How could she be so heartless?

So what if I'm just a concubine?

So many people can do it

Our Ru Xin has caught the eye of Mr. Qian.

This shows that she is both beautiful and talented.

It's too late to say anything now.

My job is gone.

His reputation was ruined.

Will Dad's situation affect our exams?

A scholar's reputation is of utmost importance.

I actually passed the exam

Family background and reputation may also be investigated before the results are released.

The examiner can also investigate your family affairs.

Will check

So all these years we've been studying every day

If even the imperial examinations are affected, what's the big deal?

They have exams next month.

If this matter spreads throughout the county...

What to do next?

First, pass the imperial examination to become a student of the lowest rank.

We'll talk about the rest later.

If you pass the exam

Nobody's willing to take us in.

Is it really that serious?

My older sister was a concubine.

It can also hinder my younger brother's exams.

After winning

Family background and reputation may be investigated before the results are released.

The biggest fear now is that this matter will spread further and further.

Then I'll go out and ask around for you.

See how many people in the neighborhood know.

Mother, please don't talk nonsense.

Someone tricked you into saying a couple of sentences

You spread all the rumors that haven't been spread yet.

Don't worry, those old ladies in the city can't beat me.

Ruxin, the day you entered the Qian family mansion

Did Madam Qian specify what you fed her?

What did you drink?

He had someone bring him a bowl of soup.

The taste is pretty good.

Mother's soup is poisonous

How long can Du Ruxin live?

Mother, I don't want to die

It shouldn't be a deadly poison.

Then just say it all at once.

Infertility

Mom, are you saying I might never have children?

That would turn her into a hen that can't lay eggs.

Who would dare to marry you in the future?

Mother, I beg you to say less.

Why did the Qian family do this?

Wealthy families feared that concubines would bear children and cause disputes over the family fortune.

But we haven't seen a doctor yet.

Don't scare yourself.

Oh, that old woman from the Qian family is very shrewd.

Ru Xin was just a little chick when she went in.

How could we possibly defeat them?

Mother, I need to see a doctor.

Go now

As long as the doctor hasn't made a final diagnosis...

There is still hope.

I'll go too

Mother, please stay with me.

There's nothing worth visiting at that clinic.

Okay, I'll go with the boss.

You guys hurry up and go

They're usually so slow at doing anything.

They're running like there's a thief behind them.

Boss, you're out of work now.

What to do next?

Go out and look again

The county town is only this big.

Your affair with Ru Xin will spread sooner or later.

If you ask me, I'd just go back to the village.

Where in the book can you not copy?

We grow our own food

Raising chickens and pigs myself

A pig can sell for nearly 10 taels a year.

I won't reply

So many years have passed

Go back dejectedly

I can't bear the shame.

Your two sons still need to go to school, don't they?

Can you teach them enough to pass the imperial examination?

Saves a lot of tuition fees

And Ruxin

Returning to the village, one can still ask someone to arrange a marriage.

You are now in the county town

Everyone is afraid of running into acquaintances.

The two children can't stay cooped up in the house all day.

Returning to the village is so much more comfortable

By the way, this house in the county town can still be rented out.

There's income every month, oh my!

How come I never realized I was so smart?

When Wang returns

I discussed it with her.

You are a man

You have to ask your wife about such a small thing?

Living as a family

There needs to be discussion and compromise.

Mother, I'm scared

Don't be afraid, Mom is with you.

Let the doctor take a look first.

Maybe nothing's wrong at all.

Where does he feel unwell?

Just say there are people waiting outside.

Please take a look.

Whether he can get pregnant in the future is still uncertain.

Did he drink it before?

Drugs that prevent pregnancy

It is indeed difficult for the girl to get pregnant.

It's likely that they took medication that would prevent them from having children.

This medicine is mainly for preventing men from having children.

Is there any other way to cure this?

She's so young

My medical skills are limited and I cannot cure it.

If you do not give up

You can go to the prefectural city to see a famous doctor.

What are the chances of being cured if I go to the prefectural city?

It's hard to say, let's just say it's not good.

Perhaps 20% to 30%

Prescribe me some medicine.

As long as there is a glimmer of hope

I want to try them all.

You have a cold constitution.

I can only prescribe some medicine to warm the uterus and regulate its function for now.

Mother, I don't want anyone to know.

No one will know, just go home and don't be afraid.

Your two younger brothers are about to take exams.

We'll figure out a solution for the prefectural city issue later.

How can I give birth?

Don't let it really become two daughters

Hens that can't lay eggs

No doctor can cure it

They only said we could go to the prefectural city to see.

If it can't be cured, buy medicine.

You've been scammed.

This is how the boss wastes his money.

We prescribed this medicine ourselves.

Ruxin only entered the Qian family for the sake of this family.

She didn't get a share of the money spent on your new house.

Her body is ruined now.

How can taking a few doses of medicine be considered a waste of money?

If you can eat and want to take medicine, then take it and stop arguing.

My good-for-nothing wife does whatever she says.

She's in charge of the whole household.

What's wrong with me taking care of my own home?

We separated a long time ago.

We're not the ones who will take care of you in your old age.

Okay

The daughter-in-law is riding on her mother-in-law's head.

Old man, come back and see me soon!

Go ahead and curse.

This is the county town.

Not the Old Sow Village

You can shout until dark and no one will come to your aid.

This place is unbearable to stay in.

Boss, I need to go back to the village.

Rent a mule cart now and take me back.

Mom will be eating lunch soon.

Can you please stop messing around?

If you don't see me off, I'll go to the door and talk to the neighbors.

Let them see how you two treat your own mother.

The husband called a car to take his mother back.

I'll take you back to your village.

So you won't get into another argument on the way.

snort

Second brother, your mother was almost bullied to death in the county town.

Quickly call the third brother.

You must give me justice.

Mom, who bullied you?

You're treated like royalty in my house.

Shopping every day

I want to buy everything I see.

How have I wronged you?

Dazhu, go and call your third uncle, third aunt, and Xiaoyu quickly.

What did Mom call them here for?

Go to the county town to settle accounts with the Wang family.

You men and women can't seem to get along.

Send several wives

you

What happened to Mom?

You don't know

Your sister-in-law gave me the cold shoulder in the county town.

He was mean to me and kicked me out today.

I'm so old and I'm being bullied by my own daughter-in-law.

What am I supposed to live for?

daughter

A lot of things have happened at home recently.

Everyone was in a bad mood.

Give me a few days

I'll bring Wang back to apologize to you later.

No, your dad used to be here.

Listen to him in everything

He's gone now.

Why should I have to put up with my daughter-in-law's attitude?

The second son's family's little rain

When we get to the county town, give me a good beating.

You'd better tear that face off from Wang's head.

My sister-in-law isn't stupid.

She dares to turn against you

Is something wrong inside?

What could possibly happen?

She's the one who bullied me.

Milk

Why did your aunt yell at you?

What exactly caused this?

How would I know?

Your uncle was dismissed from the academy.

Ru Xin was told by the doctor that she could not have children.

Your aunt got angry at me.

Mother's family knows.

Don't talk nonsense when you go out.

Ruxin and I still have to live our lives.

So my aunt's family

Two major events happened in one day

The mother still argued with her.

Anyway, he insulted me.

Are you going to the county town to avenge me?

Mother, don't go.

The most important thing now is

The eldest brother's work and Ru Xin's affairs

Give them a few days to recover

Just have your sister-in-law come back and apologize in a while.

There's no need to make a fuss anymore.

None of them can be relied upon

If you don't want to go, then don't go.

Big Brother Academy quits

What will you do in the future?

I will copy books at home from now on.

I taught Jiawen and Jiadong myself

Save tuition fees

Let's talk about it after they pass the imperial examination.

Uncle, are you going to move back to the village?

Have this plan

Houses in the county town rented out

Food and drinks are cheap in the village

It can save a lot of money

Third brother, could your car give me a ride back to the city?

The weather is nice today.

It's good for my older brother to take a walk.

I really don't want to leave

You can also ride in the oxcart when it comes back from the village later.

The day after tomorrow, my brother's mother's house will be under construction.

Remember to return the money you owe.

Xiaoyu sent a message

Someone wants to buy our river gourd sauce recipe.

It's not that I can't give you the recipe.

The problem is after they made it

How to save

This is it.

Our sauce can last so long

It's because of your place

People who follow the recipe often make things go wrong.

What if they eventually suspect us?

It doesn't matter if I lose my livelihood

I'm afraid they'll target Xiaoyu.

The prescription is negotiable.

But preserving this matter

We must first come up with a plausible solution.

Don't some wealthy families have ice cellars?

Let's dig one too.

From now on, we'll keep the gourd sauce in the ice cellar.

But we don't have ice at home right now.

What if someone comes to investigate?

Father just wants people to dig.

I can make ice

You can also make ice.

meeting

Can you really make ice yourself?

It worked after trying it out.

Ice cellars weren't just for making gourd sauce.

What else can I put in it?

goat milk

Sweet milk tea

Yeah, it was okay when it was cold before.

When the weather gets hot

Fresh milk delivered in the morning

I didn't dare stay overnight.

So when it gets hot...

Sweet milk tea is difficult to make.

It's not that it can't be done

The loss is too great.

More milk was delivered that day

If you can't sell them all, you can only drink them yourself or throw them away.

That's all silver!

So ice cellars can really be made

Adding fresh milk to the sauce will make it last longer.

An ice cellar can save two businesses

Maybe there will be more than two in the future.

If you really want to give me the recipe...

It must be clearly stated that this item is difficult to preserve.

If the smell is not right after opening the jar

You absolutely must not eat this.

Don't blame us if something goes wrong.

As long as they don't involve you in the public eye

Earning less money is fine.

It doesn't necessarily mean earning less.

It's best to let them do it.

This area around Fucheng is still for our family to sell.

It's better to leave a long-term solution than to take money all at once.

Okay

Who does the shopkeeper want the recipe for?

From the prefectural city

I can't afford to offend

However, the other party said

The prescription was written and sent to the government office.

You can also write down any requirements you have.

How is the Prefectural Governor a good official?

He is a good official who cares about the people.

The prefectural city has been peaceful and stable for many years.

We want to open a shop in the county town.

Should we add dots up and down?

No need to report to the government office.

If you don't understand, I'll take you there.

Why

And so the gourd craftsmanship was given up.

I felt really bad.

We also have a dried goods store.

Dried meat, dried chicken, sausage, and dried mushrooms can all be sold.

Open one first

Gradually cultivate people who know how to do business.

No wonder you always said that having money wasn't enough for our family.

You also need to have the ability to protect things.

father

Spring plowing hasn't officially started yet, has it?

Let's start by preparing the field and loosening the soil.

When spring plowing really gets busy

I can't straighten my back

Don't you dare think about getting your daughter out of bed again.

She had only enjoyed a few years of comfortable life

I don't even want to download it myself.

In the past, when it was time to transplant rice seedlings

My back can hurt for several days

Didn't my daughter say she wanted to make ice?

Why did you draw it again?

This is called a seedling horse.

People sit on

Put the seedlings in front

Sliding forward along the muddy ground

Rice planting doesn't require bending over all the time

Stop messing around.

Your dad isn't going to the fields to plant rice anymore.

If you don't use it, others will.

Dad called over the carpenter.

I told him how to do it.

This is called a seedling horse.

People sit on

Put the seedlings in front

Following the muddy ground

Just stir it like this.

It can really freeze.

This ice is inedible.

But it's enough for storing in the ice cellar.

When it gets hot

I'll make some edible smoothies.

Eating more pig's trotters will make you more beautiful.

I am already very beautiful

Uncle Shunzi said I was the prettiest village girl in the village.

Eat more.

Strive to become the most beautiful in the county.

People say you're cute

That's just polite talk.

Soothing the child

Mom, I'm afraid of the dark at night.

I'll sleep with you

Good mother is with you

Dad is also afraid of the dark

The three of us together

Don't go to the old house to find Grandma.

My dearest

If it really becomes this thing, I can make it too.

Once the ice cellar is dug, it can be used for storage.

It will keep longer with gourd sauce.

It could also be said that it was kept in an ice cellar.

There is this reason

I feel much more at ease.

What are you doing?

Eat first

This thing is edible.

This bucket contains frozen food made with clean water; it's edible.

My sister made sweet milk tea again.

ah

Going to such great lengths

Just to cool it down

Dad, don't worry about it for now.

Dad should try it first, just in case he gets a stomachache.

Dad, you just want to steal it.

What's wrong?

This is really refreshing to drink in this weather.

Give me

sister

Um

I like to eat hot food in winter.

I want to eat this in the summer

Can I sell it in the county town?

able

Then we'll sell it tomorrow.

Why is it not working again?

First, set up the ice cellar.

Stable ice

Only then can grain sales be stabilized.

OK

We secretly planted melons and fruits

Take it to sell in the afternoon

Avoid the villagers

The land reclamation is too slow

It is also easy to be discovered

Making money by raising pigs

But pigs can squeal.

There's nowhere to hide.

Copying books is not allowed either.

I've only been studying for a short time.

The handwriting looks like a dog's crawl.

Nobody wants to buy

What else can we do?

If I wait a few more years, I'll probably be married by now.

Let's wait and see, thanks to the blessings of Sanzhuzi.

I know exactly where my parents hide their money.

The family's money can be spent by Sanzhuzi.

My second brother and I felt like outsiders.

Cannot move now

When I get married

Take back what is rightfully mine

Then take his wife and separate from the family.

From now on, he'll farm and I'll copy books.

Nobody can treat me like a cow anymore.

Doctor, you said last time that there was still hope for treatment in Fucheng.

Which doctor can cure it?

How much silver is needed?

These past two days he's been insisting on selling his house to pay for medical treatment.

Please give me a definite answer.

The house can't take any more damage.

That day I was afraid the girl might do something rash.

Only then did they put a positive tone on the matter.

Your situation

Even if it costs hundreds of taels to go to the prefectural city

It's also possible that everything will go down the drain.

Hope is small

It seems there's no cure.

Didn't you say there was still a 20-30% chance?

That's to comfort you.

If family background is average

I advise you to stop wasting money.

It's all because of you that I went to get money.

Take care of that old man at home

My life is ruined now.

Don't push all the responsibility onto us.

Your mother advised you back then

It's your own greed for money and wealth that's the problem.

How did Grandpa Qian pass away?

You know it yourself.

Now that you've returned safely...

It's already a stroke of luck

good

You are truly my good parents.

As you wish

Let's go back to the village and stay for a while.

Change location

Wait until the storm passes

Thinking about the future

Construction is about to begin on my third brother's wife's house.

Please have the villagers earn 20 coins a day.

There are many people in your family

Or should we borrow it to help?

More people means faster construction

Second brother

My men also get 20 coins a day for doing work.

Aren't they servants?

Why are they still paying wages?

Servants are also human beings

The people I hire get paid the same amount for any extra work they do.

Furthermore, I just bought several dozen acres of land in He Village.

They all need to be taken care of.

Unable to get away

Third brother, should you think about it again?

Second brother, I still have things to do.

Today marks the official start of construction on your grandma's new house.

Let's go together

Doesn't the mother need to buy a maid to take care of her?

When to buy

She said she would choose the house herself once it was built.

There's no rush to sleep in the same room with your second aunt now.

Grandma still lives in Uncle's house.

He's afraid your grandpa's coming back in the middle of the night.

I'm afraid to sleep alone now.

Your second uncle can only share a room with Dazhu and the others.

Who sent so many mule carts all of a sudden?

Third brother, I'll go to the construction site later.

You go first.

Brother, you rented all of these.

Yes, I've moved back to the village.

Unload things first

I'll go to the construction site later.

Having lived in the county town for so many years

They really did move back.

He lost his life and his reputation was ruined.

He stayed in the county town and didn't even dare to leave his house.

Going back to the village is more comfortable.

Why are you only arriving now?

The sun is already high in the sky.

I ran into my older brother on the way

It was delayed for a while

The boss is back.

I knew I was going to build a house.

He couldn't possibly not come back.

His mother and her whole family moved back to the old house.

We rented several mule carts to transport goods.

Okay, boss, listen to me.

What's good about county towns?

It's so lively when the whole family comes back together.

We don't need to keep an eye on this.

The boss definitely hasn't finished moving all the stuff yet.

The second and third brothers came back to the old house with me to help.

Let's have lunch together

My older brother really moved back.

That old house will no longer be possible.

It all belongs to our second wife's family.

My eldest brother's family came back to stay for an extended period.

We can no longer live our lives in a daze.

A kitchen

If two families are cooking at the same time, who should give way to whom?

The woodshed was cleaned up

Build another stove

One kitchen per family

Pots and pans

Bought when Dad was alive

Even between brothers, accounts must be settled clearly.

I won't chop wood or support them.

Boss, why did you bring back so much stuff?

There's no room to fit it.

I've lived in the county town for so many years

There are definitely many things.

Mom put some in your room

The one next door can also be piled up.

I want Zhao Di to stay in that room.

Mother never gave it to me

It was originally meant for my older brother.

Second brother and third brother

Just in time

Help me move it in

Mom, slow down, don't tire yourself out.

Da Wen has moved back.

I won't live in the county town anymore.

Boss

My parents' house isn't ready yet.

We'll talk about it later.

Um

Everyone worked hard today.

Third brother and sister-in-law, please stay for dinner.

Let's make things clear before we eat.

My sister-in-law will have to buy the vegetables from our backyard from now on.

We've already split up.

I didn't grow these for the eldest son's family to eat for free.

Second son's wife

Even a few vegetables cost money

They are brothers.

Only close brothers can settle accounts clearly.

Will he give me the money he earned from copying the book?

Why should I grow vegetables, raise pigs, and feed chickens to support them?

The vegetable garden originally belonged to me in half.

You give me half of it.

I replanted

Pigsties and chicken coops also need to be divided.

I want to raise one too.

Let's clarify the boundaries today.

Dad's probably not going to enjoy this meal.

The play has just begun

Okay, since you want to clarify things, brother...

Today we'll divide it one by one.

Do brothers really need to be so meticulous?

He just got back and immediately asked me to pick vegetables.

Why didn't you mention brothers just now?

There is only one kitchen.

Convert the woodshed into a room

The two families use it separately

The pots and pans that Dad used to buy

Full to half

There are also old houses

After you move out

Don't give it all to the eldest brother again.

My and your father's house

Nobody is allowed to move.

When I die

You three brothers can divide it together.

Your grandma is afraid I won't take care of her in the future.

80%

Half and half of the vegetable garden

The original pigsty and chicken coop belong to me.

The eldest brother needs to be raised

I'll build it myself again.

I'll build it myself.

Before my second sister-in-law's new kitchen was finished

Can I borrow your stove for a few days?

My third brother's family is still alive.

I'll cook.

If there's no kitchen, build a makeshift stove first.

We won't lend our stove.

I ate with my second brother

Is Mom's food ready yet?

Dad said if he didn't eat soon he would miss his afternoon nap.

We ate porridge before the kitchen was ready.

If you don't want to eat, find a way yourself.

After all that fuss, this is what I got?

Can't even cook a meal properly

What else can you do?

Zhao Dawen

You made a mess of this yourself.

Now you can just pat your butt and hide in the house.

You still complain about me.

Who are you talking to?

Oh, Wang, you've gone mad!

You dare hit my son

I'll fight you to the death!

Hehehe

Big tree, you've finally arrived!

This woman hit her husband on her very first day back home.

I almost got killed by my mother-in-law.

Didn't we just sort out the things in the house?

Why are they fighting again?

She hit your older brother first.

I stood up for my son.

She even dared to fight back.

The eldest brother divorced her.

What couple doesn't bicker?

Many things to do today.

She was unhappy.

It won't happen again.

daughter

I acted impulsively today, and I admit my mistake.

He's practically beating you up!

You're still protecting that good-for-nothing?

We left too early.

Missed the most exciting part

Next time there's something exciting, I'll stay a little longer.

Xiaoyu actually came to help me transplant rice seedlings today!

I'm here to try something new.

Sitting while transplanting rice seedlings eliminates the need to bend over

Is this a small boat?

The water in the field is deep

Afraid of drowning

etc.

Ahhh

Hahaha

Did my little darling get hurt?

Hurry home and change your clothes

It's nothing, I just ate a mouthful of mud.

Sitting steadily on the ground

If it gets into the paddy field, it needs to be turned over and modified.

Xiaoyu, hurry home.

If you get sick from the cold, your dad will fight me to the death.

I'll remember the question for next time.

It will definitely be able to hold its ground.

How old are you?

They even went to the paddy fields to cause trouble.

There is no seedling horse

Everyone's still planting rice seedlings, aren't they?

Mom, I'm not hurt.

I just ate a mouthful of mud.

The thing isn't unusable

It's not done yet.

The village chief said you'd fall over as soon as you sat down.

What exactly went wrong?

Sitting steadily on the ground

It shakes when it gets into muddy water

The forces applied at the front and rear need to be readjusted.

You need to sit tighter down.

Try again later

Let your dad go to the fields.

You are not allowed to fall.

ah

So I'm supposed to fall?

Miss, I understand.

I redid it.

I fell and got all muddy in the rain a couple of days ago.

Big Tree wants to try it today too.

I can fall.

Look carefully

Can you really sit down and insert it?

My lower back doesn't ache at all.

Faster than bending it to insert

Hey, get up, get up!

Let me try

I haven't finished planting these two bunches of rice seedlings yet.

It really doesn't strain my back.

How much effort can be saved by inserting it like this for a day?

The village chief told me to give it a try too.

My back has been hurting for days too.

Is the village chief alright?

How could it just break like that?

good

Haha, that proves we're on the right track!

It's just not sturdy enough.

Go back and continue.

Try a few more

It really worked

Our whole village will be able to use it for spring plowing in the future.

Do it again

We can no longer directly fix this.

Replace with hardwood for the frame

Add two more crossbeams

The interface is made with one protrusion and one concave side.

Get stuck and lock up

The young lady was referring to mortise and tenon joints.

The younger ones can do it

This is much stronger than using nails.

Then do it quickly.

Don't let people fall into the mud while sitting down.

Village chief, are you here to be my family's door god?

I'm waiting for Uncle Yangma.

You need to understand

This thing was actually made.

Our village is not the only one that benefits.

County and Prefectural City

Even rice farmers across the country can use it.

Once it's done

I will personally take you to see the magistrate.

This is truly a meritorious deed.

This is sturdy.

The light rain was just on the shore.

Let's try it secretly tonight.

Don't let too many people see it before it's done.

Amazing! No more backaches or leg pains.

It's even faster than bending over to insert.

Let me try it too.

Hahaha

Why

We went to the county government office as soon as it was light.

Ooh ooh ooh

The magistrate agreed to see us.

Just tell me not to panic.

This is the first time in my life I've seen such a high-ranking official.

I can't speak.

You have to pick up.

This humble subject pays respects to Your Excellency, the County Magistrate

I heard you made something.

Able to sit while transplanting rice seedlings

Your Excellency, this is the person sitting here.

Place the seedlings in front

While inserting the plug, walk backwards.

I can't tell the real from the fake just by looking at myself.

Hearing is believing

seeing is believing

I have already prepared a paddy field.

Go and show this to me.

Go and insert it for me to see.

Village chief, why don't you come?

You inserted it more smoothly than I did last night.

You do what you want.

How did you insert it last night?

How to insert it today

The adult was indeed sitting down while transplanting rice seedlings.

How many plants can be planted in a day?

At this speed

Three mu per person should be no problem

I will try it myself.

Adults should not be lowly but should try first.

No need

Strange, why can't it stand up?

The adult should hold the seedling looser with their left hand.

You need to use a clever technique to insert it with your right hand.

This commoner has been planting for decades

Hand habits

It's already quite an achievement for an adult to go to the fields for the first time.

Look at these few

Very rustic

Haha, this is great stuff!

I will immediately write a memorial to report to the Prefect.

If the Prefect approves

It will definitely be reported to the imperial court.

This sample is left by the official.

The entire county will be promoted starting tomorrow.

Your family's carpenter should also be lent to the county government.

I need to gather all the carpenters in the county.

Let him teach everyone how to rush to make it

This humble subject will follow your instructions.

Spring plowing cannot be delayed

We'll discuss your award once things are settled.

The credit will definitely not be less.

The village chief also wants to bring the village carpenters to learn.

You'll be the fastest to teach.

Dad, you teach me.

Let me explain the principle to you.

The drawings are also finished.

Now everyone outside thinks that the idea of ​​the Central Bank's "Ma" was yours.

I, a young girl, suddenly stepped forward to teach a group of carpenters

Inappropriate

Too many people, too many opinions

We really need to be careful.

Just promote the product.

It doesn't matter who stands in front.

This must be locked.

We cannot skimp on timber

If you don't understand, just ask me.

Don't make it break as soon as you start working on it.

Make a sample first

After finishing, go directly to the field for testing.

How much does the village chief sell this for?

80 coins each

The carpenter originally wanted to sell it for 100.

Give the big tree 20 coins

But the big tree doesn't want it.

He said he wouldn't make money off his fellow villagers.

It would be good if everyone could suffer less.

I won't take this money.

Can we try it first?

80 coins is not a small amount.

Okay, leave this by the field for two days.

Anyone who wants to use it should queue up.

I'll give you 10 coins a day to guard

Who broke the thing?

You need to keep an eye on him.

Don't worry, who would dare to mess around?

I'll argue with him first.

snort

They've already pasted it on the city gate so quickly.

I heard that model samples were distributed to every village.

Have the carpenter do it.

Parents, I want to go into the mountains with Xiao Lei.

Dig up some spring herbs

You two are not allowed to be married yet.

What kind of talk is it to run alone into the deep mountains?

snort

I brought him along because he knew the mountain roads well.

It can protect me when it encounters something.

I can go too.

My brain is numb from studying all day.

It's a good balance between work and rest

You don't know how to hunt.

Really encountering danger

I still have to drag you along.

Do you really despise your dad that much?

Do you absolutely have to go into the mountains?

Want herbs

You can buy it even in the county town

no the same

I'm just bored and have nothing better to do.

become

Then I must follow.

Chunmiao got married

Should we still go?

If you don't go, your mother has prepared a silver bracelet.

Makeup photos sent

You should be more careful in the future.

No one is allowed to go out alone before getting married.

Did you hear me?

Uncle Zhao, rest assured

I will pay attention.

Ah, Xiao Lei, be careful!

Kazakhstan

When did it crawl in here?

I didn't see any of it.

A rat snake is fine

Take it home and it can be a great snack with your drinks.

If I keep going, I can scare a snake back.

Girl, don't come to such deep places again.

There are at most a few rat snakes at the foot of the mountain.

They have all colors here.

But snake gallbladders and venom glands can be sold for money.

We'll roast the remaining snake meat and eat it tonight.

You guys eat.

I feel a bit uneasy today.

Don't come with me next time.

Don't go up the mountain next time.

You're finally back!

I've been here for half a day

Your wife is like a saw-off gourd.

daughter

With the weather getting warmer, there are more snakes.

Aren't you most afraid of snakes?

Hmph, your older brother said he scattered yellow powder in the yard.

If I can't even invite a snake, what am I afraid of?

Mother, you've come at just the right time.

I'm in luck today.

Xiao Lei, quickly bring out the prey for Grandma to see.

Mother, don't look back.

Mother, look how fat this one is!

I heard that if someone is bitten by a person, they won't be able to walk more than a few steps before collapsing.

I'll stew some for you tonight to nourish your body.

Mother, call the doctor quickly, this has gone awry!

It's just excessive fright.

She is in very good health.

No prescription needed

Mother, are you alright?

Hmph, the eldest and second eldest are unfilial!

You're a lunatic.

What terrible things have I done?

I raised the three of you

Mom, what are you doing clinging to the door frame?

My legs are too weak to stand.

Third brother, can you take me home?

Slow down the milk

Don't fall again.

The eldest and second sons' families were all stingier than each other.

The rice in the rice water is getting less and less.

The steamed buns are getting smaller and smaller.

How much of their food can an old woman like me eat?

Perhaps there isn't much food left at home.

They don't care about anything else, they all covet the food rations you gave me.

I won't take it out.

They just don't want to support me.

Why don't you just cook something for yourself?

I've become a grandmother by now.

They even made me cook for myself.

I'll just wait it out with them.

Let's see who can't hold out first.

How many snakes were sold?

Poison thread, 20 coins each

Snake gallbladder 15 coins

The pharmacy owner said

We'll accept whatever you have from now on.

Only this much

I thought it would be worth a lot of money.

Why

Don't complain about the amount.

The biggest gain today is finally...

Your mother has been safely returned.

Each basket must be laid out for inspection.

It's even harder to identify poisonous ones after they've been dried.

Better to be slow than to sneak in

This person was found by the village chief.

I used to collect mushrooms for others in my early years.

30 coins per person per day

Our shop only accepts dried mushrooms.

Nobody buys dried wild vegetables in the county town

Then we'll mainly sell dried meat, cured meat, sausages, and mushrooms.

Test the water first

The mother, her three brothers, and her younger brother are also doing mushroom collecting and business in the village.

Why does he never take my second brother and me with him when he's doing business?

The third son has always been capable.

Without him, how could I enjoy the blessings I have now?

daughter

You're implying I'm incompetent.

That's not what I meant.

The rice seedlings have been pushed open for so many days.

Why is there still no news about the magistrate's commendation?

They won't steal our credit, will they?

Reporting to the prefectural city layer by layer

Even the capital city

It was never going to be fast to begin with.

There's nothing I can do if they really don't give it to me.

But if they only want to eat alone

I won't release any new things anymore.

Dad, thank goodness we harvested mushrooms.

If you're collecting timber

This mountain will probably be bald in a few days.

Even if you really wanted to collect timber, no one would dare to cut it down like that.

Live trees should not be disturbed.

Everyone collects dry branches for firewood.

This is a rule passed down from our ancestors.

We must leave food for future generations.

Our ancestors were wise.

So many people

We don't need to go up the mountain by ourselves this year.

You shouldn't join in the fun.

If you want to eat wild vegetables, ask your family to pick them.

Don't go into the mountains on your own.

Knowing I'm busy watching Chunmiao sew her wedding dress and don't have time lately

Uncle, look at my mushrooms!

They were all picked from sunny slopes, why squeeze them?

My son has rules about receiving goods.

Don't buy moldy ones.

Don't use muddy ones.

Do not mix with grass.

Mother, I've come to see the excitement today.

The two uncles were the ones who inspected the goods.

Everyone, please proceed in order.

No one should cut in line.

These are what I picked.

You weigh your mother first.

This pile is so long

I can't stand up.

Mother, I collected dried mushrooms.

You haven't sunbathed here.

The bottom is all rotten.

It will dry in the sun.

I am your biological mother

They're not outsiders.

Even a mother can't break the rules.

I'll take your junk.

Why should I refuse other people's defective goods?

I can't accept this basket.

Hey, you were just lecturing me!

So he tricked his own son with rotten mushrooms!

none of your business

Even if my son doesn't collect mushrooms

They still gave me food.

Do you have money?

Mother, stop making a fuss.

I don't want these mushrooms.

Take it back

Uncle Me

You're getting old.

Don't go up the mountain and get tired.

The new house is almost finished.

What furniture do you want when you go back?

Pick the one you like.

Isn't it better to just enjoy life peacefully?

Yes, I'll go back and think about it.

As I said before

It doesn't matter who comes.

The goods were substandard.

Not buying a single pound

Spring Sprouts are truly blessed.

Your dad has prepared so many nice things for you!

Marry someone nearby in the future

I often visit my third aunt's house when I have free time.

We used to be old neighbors.

knew

When I was little, Sister Peach called me an idiot.

Playing with me will make you stupid

So we haven't played much.

Live a good life from now on

You are a blessed child.

Thank you, Grandma Liu.

This is for you.

This is for your aunt.

These two are for you from Xiaoyu and Lihua.

The Zhao family sent three portions at once.

Also adorned with pearls

Shunzi and Dashu have a really good relationship.

The Zhao family's life improved.

They didn't forget their family either.

Chunmiao's second aunt will give you a piece of cloth.

I'll make a bib later.

It can be used when working

You might not know his aunt.

Chunmiao's dowry included a rough-working old woman.

Her in-laws also recently planned

Buy two more workers

Even the dowry included servants.

These few families at the end of the village

They really don't live the same kind of life as us anymore.

Mother has to do this all day tomorrow.

Just bear with it for a day.

If I suffer any grievances in my husband's family later

I'll definitely go home and tell you.

Our Liu family's daughter won't be bullied.

I know Xiaoyu also said that.

If things really don't work out, then break up.

Change men

Whether you can live well or not, you still have to live well.

And the little booklet I tucked at the very bottom of my dowry.

When no one's around, I'll watch it with your husband.

Keep your dowry safe.

That's your confidence.

I don't use my own money to subsidize my in-laws' family.

The man can't even afford to support his wife

Why would I marry him?

The little ones nearby are hard to find

Let's drive to a farther place to catch it tomorrow.

You're thinking of going out for a spring outing, aren't you?

Do something important while you're at it

The cubs are prone to dying if they stay out of water for too long.

If you catch them, you have to send them back immediately.

Keep more females later

Let them reproduce on their own

So many pools

How many are appropriate to raise?

Let's keep it and see.

The high death rate is due to overcrowding; adjustments need to be made gradually.

Your grandma's new house will be ready in about ten days.

But she still wants the same furniture as ours.

Your uncles absolutely refused to spend any more money.

They've been bothering me every day lately.

The house is empty and uninhabitable

Bed, cabinet, pots and pans, water bucket, water tank, farm tools

And the firewood to burn later.

Someone has to be responsible for everything.

Isn't that right?

Buy them one by one

Another sum of money

Then don't buy them all.

The old house with its pots, pans, farm tools, and furniture.

It was originally prepared by Grandma and Grandpa.

She moved her things.

Who dares to say no?

Let's buy a new bed for the baby.

A wardrobe

Calculate the filial piety of the third wife

Other things he moved from the old house

From now on, the firewood will be delivered in turns by the eldest and second sons.

Our family is not responsible.

He moved the old things away.

The eldest and second eldest brothers themselves still need to buy new ones.

He said he had no money to buy his mother a new one.

My pot is gone

The furniture is gone.

We can't just not buy it either, can we?

How to achieve success

Your grandma's mouth yells

It's hard for them not to pay.

Madam Huang was efficient at her work.

He is honest

Is it easy for you to use?

He's much better than your older brothers' families.

She didn't make a fuss.

She listens to whatever I say.

Mrs. Huang and I went to the old house

Bring back everything you can find at home.

These are all things that my husband and I bought in the past.

Saves me money to buy

Good old lady

Mother, you even took the iron pot.

What will we cook for dinner?

This pot was originally bought by my husband and me.

I don't need to cook when I move.

Mother also needs to take farm tools

I'll just take one.

Don't you still have

I need to grow vegetables in my new yard too.

If Mom needs anything, just have the third son buy you something new.

What will we do if you move out?

Hmph, the third brother said

He only bought me a bed and a wardrobe.

The rest is up to the two of you.

You won't buy me a new one

I'll just take my old one.

Mother, how much more do you need to move?

Old man

Take me away.

Raising three sons

One, two, three

None of them are filial.

They're all yours.

Take whatever you like, okay?

Move the furniture too.

If you think it's too old, just buy a new one yourself.

Furniture left

My second brother and I will buy you a new one.

A new house should be furnished with new furniture.

Don't move the Huang family furniture yet.

Let's go to the cellar and move the grain.

Only take my and your grandpa's share.

Leave a bag in the kitchen

The rest I gave to my new house's cellar

The pot is gone and the tools are fewer.

So much grain was moved away too.

Good, so good

That's fucking good

Babies, thank you all for liking to dress up as a peasant girl.

Raising kids and farming is incredibly fun and exciting!

The next season is currently in rapid production.

More exciting things to come!

Remember to click to reserve and add to your favorites!

Hopefully, the third brother hasn't gotten into any trouble outside.

I told you money wasn't so easy to earn.

He really committed a crime

Don't drag us down with you.

If it really was a house raid

Let's see how they can maintain their glory in the future.

Is Huang's third son going to be arrested and beheaded?

The old lady and the third master don't seem like people who would do bad things.

Who is Zhao Dashu?

I am Zhao Dashu

Zhao Dashu made a contribution in making seedlings.

Reported by the county magistrate

The Prefect specially bestowed upon him a plaque inscribed with the name of a skilled craftsman from Huinan.

A reward of three hundred taels of silver

Let me have that, he's my own son, my own son.

The old man is very fortunate.

The central horse has already been sent to the capital by the Prefect.

There might be good news later.

The place where the emperor lived in the capital

This is a reward from the county magistrate.

The Zhao family was exempted from taxes for five years.

Exempt from ten years of corvée labor

The plaque personally bestowed by the Prefect

Who would dare to mess with their family in the future?

Three hundred taels!

There are also tax exemptions and exemptions from military service.

Thank you, Prefect.

Thank you, Magistrate.

The officials have had a long journey, please come in.

The village chief and clan head also came in and sat down.

If the third brother is willing to give me the blueprints

This credit might just be mine.

300 taels of tax for five years

Ten years of corvée labor

He already had money.

They're still sending money to his house.

Let's go back; they weren't planning to let us in.

Continuing to stand there will only make you a laughing stock.

Ahhh

Mr. Zhao, your carpenter will be back in a few days.

It's almost over.

The county plans to vigorously promote rice seedling cultivation next spring.

Magistrate Lao, you have gone to great lengths.

Even a commoner like me didn't expect one

The ram could cause such a commotion

The magistrate also said

If you have any more good ideas for benefiting farmers in the future...

Go directly to the county government office to find him.

The big tree has really made something of itself now.

Our Zhao family also benefited from this.

I said it long ago.

Big Tree is the most capable person in our village.

Take care, adults.

300 taels of silver for the big tree

Five-year tax exemption

Ten-year exemption from corvée labor

Our village hasn't had such a joyous occasion in years.

It was all because the central government was in the right place at the right time.

It'll be worth it for the villagers to use it in the future because it saves them money.

300 taels! He wasn't short of money to begin with.

Now they are exempt from taxes and military service.

The richer they are, the more money they send to their family.

Don't say it, it'll be even more embarrassing if someone hears you.

Mother, I want to go to my third uncle's house.

I want to be my third uncle's son

His family had so many silver ingots

I won't have to study so hard anymore.

Shut up.

I've forgotten what your third uncle said before.

They don't want you

They have their own son-in-law

So what if you have a son-in-law?

No more sons

Aren't daughters all a money pit?

You worthless thing, don't eat my cooking anymore.

Don't even think about the money I earn.

Parents still expect this kind of person to bring honor to the family.

You wish!

You are not allowed to mention being Uncle's son again.

They won't want you.

Our family would not send our son away.

Did you understand?

Hmph

I can't bear to give my son away

That's a novel way of putting it.

Big Pillar, Second Pillar, and I went down to the ground.

Um

I paid for your education.

It's just to let you come back to sleep.

It's not me who doesn't do the work.

My third uncle's family has so much silver.

Give me a little bit, what's wrong with that?

That's bullshit; your third uncle earned that money himself.

Give it to whomever you want

It's none of your business to worry about.

Didn't you say that before?

Does being the son of my third uncle mean you'll have everything?

They don't want you

One must recognize reality.

Things that don't belong to you

Stop daydreaming

You two also get out of bed.

Don't neglect the chores at home

We should be peasants for life.

Even learning on your own is not enough.

I didn't say no

Finish the chores at home first.

What's the use of studying?

My third uncle didn't go to school.

Didn't they also make a lot of money?

It's clearly because the father is incompetent.

Shut up and read it properly.

Third son, your mother isn't after your money.

I'm just worried that you're too young to save money.

Mother, rest assured since we separated the family.

We've always managed our finances very well.

The flower should be in the province.

You should at least give your mother some money for her retirement, right?

Isn't retirement money always being provided?

It was agreed that the eldest and second eldest brothers would give them how much.

I'll give you that much

Can they compare to you?

You've done such a great job this time.

He received 300 taels

As a mother, I should at least share in the joy, right?

My old friends will ask me later

You won the grand prize.

My own mother received nothing.

How much it will affect your reputation

Third Auntie doesn't need much

Just two silver ingots

Can't I just hold him while I sleep?

Mother knew when to stop

It's not like you don't have money.

Don't take what isn't yours.

Stealing someone else's money will get you punished.

I'll just watch whoever steals it.

If you don't want to give it, then don't give it.

Want silver ingots

Take your loose silver to the money exchange.

Yes, I'll have your mule cart pick me up tomorrow.

Milk, you never come back empty-handed!

Daughter

Do you think there will be any reward if the central horse is sent to the capital?

not necessarily

The credit for the later achievements went more to the county magistrate and the prefect.

We received the plaque

I registered with the prefect.

You can even speak directly with the county magistrate.

These are worth more than a few hundred taels of silver.

I'll do business in the county town in the future.

Indeed, no one dares to trip us up anymore.

The candy store is closed again because of the hot weather.

The two sons still need to be betrothed.

If you don't find work...

What to do if your house only spends money and doesn't bring in any?

But I can't do the hard labor in the county town either.

Go find Xiao Lei

We won't take his money this time.

Ask him to help you find a job

The Zhao family has so many shops and estates

There will always be places where people are needed.

I'll try.

Dad, look

These are the seeds I uploaded to my space.

These are regular seeds.

They were all planted three days ago.

That's a huge difference

The buds here are dense and strong

Half of them haven't come out yet.

The melons ripened early this year.

The seeds that bear fruit are mostly from the space.

If it's not just vegetables

Food can be like this too?

Don't we have a farm?

I want to designate a piece of land

Plant regular seeds and space seeds separately

Seeds are saved every year.

Let's see if the output can remain stable.

You're going to the farm to do an experiment.

This isn't a matter that can be concluded just by planting one crop.

I need to save the harvest for seed.

Plant the next generation

How many generations can this high production capacity be sustained?

It still depends on the seed.

How long should it be kept in the Qiankun Bag?

How long is that?

It will take at least three or four years.

The village is small

People coming and going

It's also troublesome for me to go to the farm every day.

The farm is surrounded on all sides

It was full of lifeless people.

More convenient to keep secret

You want to move to the village.

If we can really increase grain production...

This is even more important than the Central Bank's Marxist-Leninist program.

That estate is so big

Besides testing improved varieties

What to do with the remaining land?

We'll proceed as usual, plant and wait until we move in, then gradually make plans.

And your goat milk

Didn't you always complain about the unreliability of the milk delivery service?

Zhuangzi is so big

Let's just raise our own sheep.

You can raise a small batch first.

How many

Don't raise too many at once

Let's see who knows how to raise it first.

How much milk can be produced in a day?

How much difference is there between winter and summer?

Remember again

Of course I have to remember.

You have to write everything down in a notebook now.

How can we know whether next year will be better or worse than this year if we don't remember?

That makes sense.

Honey, let's move.

move place

Why move it out of the blue?

Xiaoyu is going to test the good seeds over there.

We'll have to rearrange things later.

The farm's livestock and business

One trial lasted for several years

How long have we lived in this house?

Pear Blossom had few playmates after going to the village.

The house won't run away

Come back anytime you want

But if high-yield varieties really become

How many people can eat one more bite of food?

Even the village chief's father-in-law can't talk about this now.

This matter was moved because of Xiaoyu.

village head

The house we bought in Nanzhuang has never been properly maintained.

I'm planning to move there for a while.

You've only been living in this new house for a short time.

Zhuangzi was not far away

Come back anytime you want

Xiao Lei and I still have to take the bus back to the village to go to school every day.

Business continued as usual.

That's acceptable.

I'm just afraid that I'll want to find someone later.

I can't find anyone to drink and chat with.

The family continued to live in the village.

From then on, Xiao Lei and I would take the bus back to class every day.

The affairs of the village must not be allowed to...

Unrelated people noticed something was amiss.

First, fence off the experimental field.

The rest are planted as usual.

Don't make it too conspicuous

The Big Tree family has really prospered.

They've all moved to live on a big farm.

We're still digging for food in the soil.

He's already the master of the estate.

The house is still there

The village is still there.

Do the really important things first.

The old lady and the third master are moving to the estate soon.

How could the third brother move out?

Who will support me after he leaves?

It's not even convenient for me to go to his house for a nice meal.

It must have been Song who instigated it.

I've moved out and am living on my own.

Even occasionally going there to freeload is not allowed.

The old lady wiped her face

No, I have to go find the third brother.

He can't abandon me.

It's good that we moved.

So that the villagers won't compare us to the third brother every day.

He walked away.

Maybe it will be quieter at home.

Rongzhuang is no ordinary residence.

There are villages in the county town

Which one of them isn't rich and powerful?

Is Uncle really in this situation now?

Ruxin, starting tomorrow, you should also help with the housework.

I cook, raise pigs and chickens.

I was so tired at night that my whole body ached.

You promised me before I came back.

They won't let me do farm work or housework.

What will you do when you get married in the future?

Which family would want to marry a wife who does nothing?

Give me more dowry

Why not just buy someone to do the work?

Chunmiao also brought along a maid.

Look at your mother's hands.

I did all the land surveying myself.

You spend all your time either wiping your face or nourishing your hands.

Can't you feel sorry for me?

You can rent out the land.

You can also hire people

It's because you're unwilling to spend money.

I don't want to end up like that.

You guys moved

I won't know where to go when I visit friends and relatives anymore.

Fortunately, Zhuangzi is not far away.

Come back during the holidays!

return

I usually live in the village

The houses here are also kept.

The head of the household and Xiao Lei still have to come back to study every day.

You should be more careful.

I heard from people around your mother-in-law that...

She's been crying everywhere these past few days.

Saying you're moving means you're abandoning her.

They even said you instigated Big Tree to move it.

I encouraged it.

The butler came with us to the estate

We also need to keep people here.

River gourds need to be looked after.

The house also needs someone to clean it.

Rest assured, sir

I'll keep the two safest options.

The other experienced people all followed.

Let's not completely believe the original farmers in the village.

We'll bring our own people along to use it.

Let's see who's more reliable first.

I've been keeping watch near the Zhao family's house for several days.

Xiao Lei always went with Zhao Dashu.

Either you go in or you go to the teacher's place.

I couldn't stop him at all.

They're moving tomorrow.

You continue to guard

I don't believe he can go his whole life without ever going out alone.

I didn't dare stand too close to the Zhao family's door.

Zhao Dashu gave me a cold look the moment he saw me.

Oh, my son, big tree!

You can't just leave your mother behind and walk away!

Mother, what are you doing?

Did your older brother upset you again?

You didn't even tell me you were moving.

I only found out from someone else.

Do you still consider me your mother?

Zhuangzi is not far from the village

I will come back during the Spring Festival and holidays.

I can come back anytime if anything happens.

Then take me with you.

I'll live with you from now on.

There's no conflict between going back to the village and living in my own new house.

It's impossible for my mother to live with me.

How did the family divide the property back then?

It's clearly written in black and white.

After Dad passes away, you want the house

We built

You need someone to serve you

We also bought

How much can I eat at my age?

Why won't you let me come along?

I didn't say I wouldn't care about you.

The refined grains you are eating now

Things that are missing on a regular basis

Which one did I miss?

I just want my family to live comfortably.

Responsibilities were truly divided according to the family division document.

I shouldn't have had to bear so much.

Mom, stop blaming me all the time.

Eldest brother and second brother are also your sons.

I'm just worried you'll move far away.

I'll stop caring about you from now on.

Won't

There are still people here.

Contact them if you need anything.

As long as you don't cause me trouble

How was food distributed in the past?

How to provide food and clothing

It will be the same in the future.

You guarantee

I promise I won't abandon you.

Why

Grandma, our two families are related by marriage.

Let's chat for a bit.

Pah! Who said we're in-laws?

If it weren't for your past mistreatment of Xiao Lei

He was able to escape.

I am Xiao Lei's biological father after all.

Please say something for me.

He can't just refuse to show any consideration, can he?

Don't come to me with your family's messes.

Your ex-father has been waiting outside for several days.

They must be in a hurry to find you.

I've seen it a few times.

Uncle Zhao told me to ignore him.

I don't want to see

You decide

I won't stop you if you want to see me.

No one can force you to see them if you don't want to.

He came to find me.

They just want to take things from me again.

Xiao Lei, you unfilial son!

I've supported you for 15 years.

Is this how you repay me?

Uncle Zhao, send someone to drive them away.

snort

Let me go, I'm looking for my son.

What business is it of yours, Zhao family?

Xiao Lei has severed ties with you.

If you dare to block my door again

People who insult my family

I'll just take you to the county government office.

I can now speak with the county magistrate.

If you don't believe me

Try it next time

Okay, I'm leaving.

Xiao Lei hit you

Go find the village chief

They still dared to lay a hand on him even after severing ties.

Let's make him pay for the medicine.

Not Xiao Lei

It was Zhao Dashu who ordered the beating.

Why should Zhao Dashu hit you?

I made a scene at his doorstep.

Zhao Dashu said if it happens again, he'll send me to jail.

Didn't I tell you to only block Xiao Lei?

Who gave you the right to cause trouble in front of the Zhao family's house?

I waited for someone but they didn't come.

They're moving again tomorrow.

I get anxious and...

Forget it, it seems Xiao Lei's path is truly blocked.

Let's figure out a way for our two sons to survive ourselves.

Xiao Lei's path is blocked.

The two sons can't just keep hanging around in the village.

Go to the county town and ask tomorrow.

Are there any jobs like apprentice waiter?

It's too late to become an apprentice at this age.

The waiter's job is more in demand.

We can only try our luck.

We still have to go.

Cannot rely on others

Find your own way to survive

The uncle is moving tomorrow.

And you even sent so much to your mother

Moving is moving

Retirement is retirement

Send some rice, flour, and meat to Mom

So that she won't worry.

Your son is truly filial.

Your older brothers have never given gifts like this before.

Old Mrs. Sun, your third son sent you something again.

Back and hands full of

I'll go home first.

What should I do if someone takes my things I left by the door?

He just said that Ruxin ate at the Qian family's house.

Cannot have children after taking the medication

Is this story true or false?

It's probably true.

If it's fake

He jumped up and started cursing.

Just now I asked

His face turned pale.

He still wouldn't continue.

That girl will have a hard time becoming a concubine later on.

Unable to give birth

Which respectable family would dare to marry her?

Hahaha

Take so much?

I'm moving tomorrow.

Twice a month thereafter

I'll have someone send it over as usual.

Even if I don't come, you won't be shortchanged.

When are you going to take your mother to check out your new house?

Once everything is settled

I'm inviting everyone over for dinner.

You can come with me then.

Mom will come over tomorrow to help you tidy up.

There aren't enough servants at home.

Just live your life in peace.

Where did you go just now?

I went to chat with some of my old girlfriends.

I'll go back first.

There are one last batch of things at home that need to be sent to the estate.

Don't go! Let's eat lunch here.

Huang's cooking is not bad.

Your nephews all say they're better than you.

My sister-in-law and second sister-in-law cook well.

I'm too busy at home to eat.

My damn mouth

Why don't you keep a close eye on things?

Mother, don't move these yet.

We might come back after hibernation.

Leave the used bedding here.

Don't you live in both places?

Bringing half of it will allow you to buy less.

Now we have to support so many people

The daily expenses are not small.

There were also thick blankets and clothes in the Qiankun bag.

What should we use first in the new house?

Make candy in winter

We might also need to make smoked chicken, smoked duck, and cured meat.

If the shop in the county town is doing well

It's actually more convenient over at Zhuangzi's place.

We might not be able to come back to stay.

Then let's keep it for now.

Looking back

Your grandma is truly enjoying life now.

Go out and chat every day

Eat refined grains at every meal

The meat never stopped.

It's your uncle's house.

The children often go to her place to eat

We sent one serving.

How could anyone resist eating like that?

One or two times of milk are willing

Over time, that might not be the case.

Grandpa is gone

No one can control her now.

She values ​​herself the most.

Nobody can take advantage of her forever.

It was also a light rain.

Mother just can't bear to part with this house.

When it was built brick by brick

We are so happy!

The house I bought later was even bigger.

I still like this place the most.

Mother, this house is indeed too small now.

More and more people in the family

The family business is getting bigger and bigger

Moving away is inevitable.

Maybe we'll move even further away in the future.

We still need to move

Who knows?

Maybe Dad will become an official someday.

Our whole family will go with us then.

You really dare to dream!

Your dad is an official.

What should I do with all these big toys, eldest sister?

After we take him away, we'll live in the village more often.

It was dilapidated last time I came.

It's completely different now.

The house is three times bigger than the old one.

There are also fruit trees on the mountain.

Lotus and water lilies will be planted in the pond later.

Big sister, my bed is so beautiful!

This is my design

Of course it looks good.

I'll make you two more pink ruqun (traditional Chinese dresses) after you move in.

Xiao Lei

Are you satisfied with your house and study?

Auntie, I'm very satisfied, everything is great.

Light rain

I've allocated you 20 mu of land.

Add more later if needed

Brother, I'll try it first.

I'm not moving to the prefectural city.

Do you really need to send them all?

Hahaha

With you gone, we've lost a card-playing buddy and a drinking buddy.

How boring

What I miss most is your family's food.

Once you've finished packing

We'll come and warm your room.

Everyone will come and recognize the place then, hahaha.

Oh, Mother Tree, I can't bear to part with you.

Mother, don't cry, it's not like I'm not coming back.

Third brother, go home and visit Mom more often when you have free time.

She misses you.

Third brother, you really should come back to study every day from now on.

Of course, the Master was used to living in the village.

Xiao Lei and I take the bus back every day.

The houses in the village are also kept for people to look after.

Neither the river gourd nor the business was lost.

Mother has something to do.

I can take care of it.

Which estate did you buy?

Jiang's family

After the Jiang family moved away, only the villagers remained to watch over them.

I bought it and repaired it.

The place is big

There are many people in the family.

It's spacious to live in.

Welcome, Master

Get up, get up

Why are you all kneeling?

Today, the master officially moved in.

The young man led the villagers to welcome him.

Get up and go inside first.

Don't make such a big fuss next time.

Master eats first

Please let me know if you need anything.

How it was before

What will happen in the future?

We're just changing our accommodation.

You don't need to treat me like a local tyrant.

Eat when you should.

Get to work.

Don't kneel down when you see us

It is the younger one who understands.

There are many people in the village

Beside the lady and young lady

Should we select a few more people to serve?

A reliable person has been added to Mother's side.

Pear Blossom should find another older maid.

I'll also pick two capable people around me.

Father and Xiao Lei each had a servant assigned to them.

Character comes first

Don't just pick the sweet-talking ones.

Write down the details of the farmers.

How many households, how many people per household, male and female, and their ages?

What kind of work do you usually do?

List them all for me.

In the future, when dealing with matters on the estate...

First, you need to get to know all the people.

yes

Daughter, I'll let you use these 20 acres as an experiment first.

If not enough

Can it continue to grow after the autumn harvest?

What's over there?

Place where livestock used to be kept

Currently, the main focus is on pig farming.

There are two empty rooms next to it.

Have you ever raised sheep?

I used to raise some

Later, the Jiang family moved away.

They felt the sheep wouldn't fetch a good price.

They were all dealt with.

The location is readily available.

Let's go buy sheep

Don't rush

What happened again?

Does anyone in the village know how to raise sheep?

Two households had raised them before.

Call the people over first.

Are you really planning to raise one?

Try raising about ten first.

So little

We want goat milk.

Not a flock of sheep

First, we need to figure out which goat milk is more abundant.

What ingredients to eat

How many times a day?

Raising sheep is so troublesome

Father and elder sister

There are many fruits on the mountain.

I also saw a large area of ​​grapevines

Those weren't wild fruits, Miss Xiao.

It was specially planted by the Jiang family in the past.

Farmers cannot pick [the fruit] at will.

Once ripe, they were originally to be sent to the prefectural city.

The Jiang family moved away several years ago.

Farmers' children can't eat it either.

Without the master's orders

They dare not touch

Don't run away, take it and share it.

The lady gave it to you.

Don't worry about taking it.

Thank you, Master.

Xiaoyu really got a great deal on this estate.

Pigs and chickens are raised well

There are fish in the river

There is grain in the field

There were also women who could weave cloth.

Future food, drink and other expenses

The village itself can provide quite a lot.

Yes, some people grow grain, raise pigs, and weave cloth for the landlords.

Landlords naturally became richer and richer.

What's wrong with my daughter?

Those children

They didn't even dare to pick the fruit from the tree.

How were the chores paid in the old days?

How would I know?

You have to ask the housekeeper.

Farmers are originally the masters' households.

Farming and raising livestock are all part of our job.

Meals are provided normally

At the end of the year, we'll see the harvest and give some gifts.

For the time being, the fertile fields will remain as before.

yes

But my work at my new house will be paid separately.

What the young lady said is

Sheep milking

Whoever is willing to do it can be chosen.

Good sheep produce qualified milk

They give me extra money each month.

How can farmers take money from their masters?

Do an extra job for me

Why can't I take it?

Listen to the young lady

And don't just look at who's stronger.

What are you looking at?

Choose who is clean

Detail-oriented and willing to learn

It's because your hands are dirty from what you put in your mouth.

Even a dirty bucket won't do.

The fruit in the village is ripe

Keep a portion before sending it to the prefectural city.

Should it be sent to the main hospital?

Distribute to the children of the village

It's better than letting it rot on the tree anyway.

Jia Dong

Why have I been hanging out with Dazhu every day lately?

I also heard that you want to move to the second room to sleep with him.

It's just that it's convenient to study together.

Didn't Dazhu really want to study?

What's wrong with getting close to the servant boy?

That child is thoughtful

I had previously considered giving the child to my third son.

He is the most proactive

I saw it several more times later.

He deliberately taught Sanzhuzi bad things.

They also made toys for Sanzhuzi.

coaxing him to stop studying

What's his motive?

That's why we have to be careful.

A teenager

Everyone has their own purpose in doing things.

There was definitely a reason.

Big Pillar is getting old

Enlightenment came too late

Whether she has a talent for studying is still unknown.

But I judge him by his character.

Dishonest

So you saw him deliberately leading Sanzhu astray a long time ago?

Why didn't you remind your second brother?

I tested Sanzhuzi on him.

A piece of rotten wood

The second brother bet everything on him.

If I said his son was no good

He'll just think I'm jealous of him.

But now Dazhuzi has his eye on Jiaying.

We can't just ignore it.

Go and find out first.

What did he use to appease Jiaying?

You copied all of these last night.

Big Pillar, please take it to the county town to sell.

Divide the money into three parts

He took a delivery order

I'll take two portions.

The paper is yours

The ink is yours

You copied the words.

He even used your things to practice calligraphy.

Do you want me to teach him to read?

yes

He said he'll be able to copy books later.

They will also give me money.

Foolish son, take a share of your money

It's a waste of paper and pen.

Learn to read for free and get a teacher for free.

You think he's helping you make money?

Babies, thank you all for liking to dress up as a peasant girl.

Raising kids and farming is incredibly fun and exciting!

The next season is currently in rapid production.

More exciting things to come!

Remember to click to reserve and add to your favorites!

Asked clearly

Jia Dong stayed up all night copying books.

Da Zhuzi only needs to make one trip to the county town to earn one-third of the money.

He also used Jia Dong's pen and ink

Let Jia Dong teach him for free

They're so obviously using him.

Jia Dong still can't see it

Big Pillar holds him up every day

He was so flattered that he lost his bearings.

I just gave him a quick calculation.

He only then realized

Let Jiabin move back

Go find the second son and his wife again

This needs to be clarified.

Jiadong, what are you doing?

Weren't we living together just fine?

I moved back

I still have to discuss academic matters with my older brother tonight.

How can we earn our private savings together after we move out?

Didn't we brothers agree on this?

I copy the book, I use the paper and ink.

I will also teach you to recognize characters

You just made a trip to the county town

Why should I take one?

This is a way to make money.

Or should I earn money for you?

Jiadong, listen to me.

Someone must be trying to sow discord between us.

Let me go!

I won't listen to you

You still want to take action?

Jia Dong, it's fine if you don't copy the book.

I can ask you again if I don't know a word in the future, right?

It wouldn't take you much effort to teach me.

My studies will get heavier and I won't have time.

If you want to learn, ask Sanzhuzi.

You are all being enlightened.

Sanzhuzi didn't study well either, Jiadong

Has someone been talking badly about me?

We've been brothers for so long

You really don't believe me?

Do you treat me like a brother or a fool?

You know in your heart

Don't contact me again.

Why did my older brother Jia Dong move back?

You two had a fight.

I was thinking of going with my uncle in the future.

My older brother should learn more words.

Get out and stop bothering me.

The paper I finally got

Mr. Pen and the Art of Copying Books

All gone at once

The eldest brother, Dazhuzi, and Jiadong's two children get along well.

There's no need for adults to forcefully stop them.

They played together

I don't need to stop you.

Your son tricked my son

What did the big pillar do?

Jia Dong was in charge of copying the books.

Take the big pillar to the county town to sell

Divide the money earned into three parts

Your son only needs to make one trip to get one copy.

The paper belongs to Jia Dong.

Mo is Jia Dong's

Da Zhuzi also used his brush and ink to practice calligraphy.

Jia Dong also taught him the characters he didn't recognize.

Two coins for a trip to the county town by oxcart

Get silver for free

Use paper and ink

Get a free second brother

Your son is really smart!

How come you all think he's quite capable?

I don't produce paper or ink myself.

Not copying a single word

You can still make money

You can also learn to read

Such intelligence

My son Dong can't afford to follow that example.

The son schemed against his cousin

This is disgraceful.

But this method of making money with nothing

It really surprised me.

Didn't my second brother say that it's a good thing for brothers to help each other?

You probably don't know that.

Sanzhuzi's studies are mostly

It was Dazhuzi who wrote it for him.

What

Big Pillar makes toys for Three Pillars

Erzhuzi helped keep watch

When you arrive

Sanzhuzi pretended to be studying.

Pay a fee

Three sons learning together

Your family's calculations are really clever.

They even dared to fool their own younger brother.

Is it a lie?

Ask yourselves

Cousins ​​working together is helping each other.

Brothers should of course help each other.

Children's matters

We adults should mind our own business, right?

Um

Write homework for Sanzhuzi

I still coax him to play every day.

Laozi spent money to send him to school.

You're the one who treated me like this.

It's not that you're preventing me from studying.

Do I really need to resort to these methods?

I am not your biological son.

I haven't even finished scheming against my cousins ​​with you.

Now even his own younger brother is being dragged into this mess.

Why is it that only Sanzhuzi can recite it?

He's a piece of trash.

You threw all your money at him

In the end, it was all for naught.

Our family has no money, no money.

Unable to afford to send all three sons to school

Why should I sacrifice myself just because I have no money?

Why should I be destined to be a peasant for life?

Hehehe

hey-hey

Hehehehe

ah

What? How long did you help keep it a secret?

Three Pillars Play Every Day

You even let him keep watch

Mother loved me, that was wrong.

A good plan

One helped cover it up

A person who only knows how to play

You are truly my good sons.

ah

Where to run?

Dad, I was wrong

I shouldn't have played with the things my older brother made.

I shouldn't have let my older brother do my homework.

The whole family spends money to support you.

You just hang around with your two older brothers and live a carefree life.

Starting today

Big Pillar and Second Pillar follow me to the fields every day.

I won't stop you from studying

As long as the work is finished

You are not allowed to ask your family for money anymore.

You do your homework as soon as you get home from school.

Move back to my room tonight

If you dare to slack off again, I'll beat you to death.

Why should I get out of bed?

I don't want to plant, I want to study.

I will never be a peasant for my entire life.

Based on your wicked intentions

Uh uh uh

Dad, I didn't fight back.

Why did you hit me too?

You think standing on the sidelines and watching the show will absolve you of any responsibility?

All three are my own flesh and blood, my darlings.

Dazhuzi is quick-witted and willing to learn.

Or should we just let him read it?

I'm afraid he'll hate us for the rest of his life.

He's too selfish.

If we satisfy him, we'll be his parents.

If you don't meet our expectations, we're your enemies.

Even if they really confess

He can manage his younger brother

Can you manage us?

You can't read it to him.

The way he looked at us today

Like looking at an enemy

Unable to supply

I'll still go to the fields tomorrow.

They all have these bad habits that come from being idle.

I'll go check on the children.

You went too far today.

I'm worried

You won't die

Mother of the child

Mom won't really get into trouble because of us, will she?

Doctor, please take a look at my wife.

She suddenly fainted.

Nothing serious

She is pregnant.

Plus, I've been too tired lately

Too much emotional fluctuation

That's when he fainted.

How long have you been pregnant?

a month or so

She's not young anymore.

You need to rest more in the future.

Take good care of your pregnancy

Should we prescribe some medication to prevent miscarriage?

No need to eat more good food first

Catch two chickens to replenish your energy

Don't overwork yourself anymore

I'm already in my early 30s.

Can still get pregnant

Adding a son and a blessing

Take good care of yourself.

Don't do any heavy work.

gurgle

Mother has another child.

We're going to be big brothers again!

Happy Mother Can't Work Anymore

Who does the housework?

Add another mouth

Our original grain can be increased

Dad will definitely dump all the work on us.

10 catties of white rice and two chickens

The second son's wife needs good nourishment.

Another member of the Zhao family is in her belly.

The old lady has finished tidying up.

Daughter, your second aunt is pregnant.

She is over 30

It needs to be taken good care of.

Don't overwork yourself.

I'm not worried about her being your mother.

She used to want to give me a son.

The news came

I was afraid she would feel bad.

Dad, do you still want a son?

I used to think about it every day.

Now I've come to terms with it.

It's best to have it, but it's not mandatory.

Our family has everything we need.

My daughter is filial and capable

The same as the top door and the family

Your child will have the surname Zhao in the future.

Same here.

Then I'll go talk to Mom.

They'll all be coming for the housewarming dinner the day after tomorrow.

You know what kind of mouth your grandma has.

Keep a close eye on it then.

What is Mom doing?

Make a few formal dresses for you and Pear Blossom

I'll draw a more fitted and comfortable design another day.

Do it for me as instructed.

Mom, I have something to tell you.

My second aunt is pregnant.

It's good that I'm pregnant, I'm fine.

Mother, even if you can still give birth now

I don't want you to take this risk either.

Childbirth can kill people

Compared to having an extra younger brother

Your safety is more important.

But a woman always needs to leave an heir for her family, right?

We have me in our family

There are pear blossoms and Xiao Lei.

After I get married

Children can also have the surname Zhao

Dad's biggest worry right now is that you're feeling unwell.

It's not about whether or not you have a son.

Xingniang didn't want to anymore.

Life is good enough now.

From now on, I'll wait to take care of your child.

I used to work from dawn till dusk at Old Zhao's house and never had enough to eat.

Now I own both a house and land.

Dad loves you.

Why risk your life to make up for a regret?

Today is for recognizing the place.

No gifts accepted

Everyone, please have a good meal when you come!

Hahaha

Big Tree, your outfit

He really does look like a big shot from the city.

Can't you speak?

Hahaha

Xiaoyu, you look so beautiful today.

Haha, everyone go in and sit down.

Don't be polite with me today.

Hahaha

What is this?

Sweet milk tea

I've had this before.

This is different.

Cold

My sister made ice

I'll try it too.

Give me a bowl

You were absolutely right.

What

A thing

Change to hot or cold

It can really sell for two seasons.

Our things haven't changed.

It's just that the seasons have changed.

My daughter is doing well now.

Dad can rest assured

Parents, hurry inside and get some sun.

You guys go about your business.

I'll go in first.

Mother, you've come!

Oh, they're even wearing gold hairpins and jade bracelets!

The third family

You are truly enjoying life now.

Even her daughter is dressed in gold and silver.

Mother is joking.

It's all thanks to the big tree that I and my child have been cared for.

Come with me to the county town tomorrow.

I'll also buy a brightly colored fabric.

Buy another silver hairpin

Why

Buy it if the old lady likes it.

Light rain

Your mother's belly hasn't shown any signs of pregnancy yet.

Your second aunt is pregnant.

Milk, we only need me at home.

Even if my second aunt gave birth to many sons

No one is as capable as me.

No matter how capable you are, you're not a man.

So what?

You yourself are a woman.

Why look down on yourself first?

My mother doesn't need to rely on having a son to keep her position.

Does her father love her?

Can't you see it?

The old lady and the third master were filial.

You yourself are living a good life.

Let the children and grandchildren decide their own affairs.

If you don't give birth, then you won't give birth.

Anyway, the Zhao family line has not been broken.

How much silver does it cost to manage such a large place?

Brother, you've seen so much, what do you think?

At least four or five thousand taels

Zhuangzi's land and houses

Add to that the newly reborn willow and so many other people

4,000 taels might not be enough to stop it.

Four or five thousand taels

The third son spent so much money

His expression didn't change.

This means he has more money than just this little bit.

My third brother and I are no longer anyone

The difference is just a few acres more.

This place costs four or five thousand taels.

Xiaoyu's future family business

It must be tens of thousands of taels.

Even someone like Xiao Lei, who has no family fortune, can come to their door.

My maternal family has several brothers and so many sons.

Why didn't I think of that back then?

Is it too late to change the player now?

Xiao Lei had no family fortune or relatives.

Why should I be paired with Xiaoyu?

If it were my nephew from my mother's side...

I don't want to go back to farming and raising pigs.

I wish I could stay at my third uncle's house.

Third brother, is this cup made of Jingde ceramics?

nice one

I don't know what Zhuangzi left behind.

Xiaoyu said it looked good, so she continued using it.

Third sister-in-law, may I pick some of these flower petals and dry them?

Winter is the perfect time to brew tea.

this

When the flowers are almost withered

We'll dry some better ones and send them to you.

Now that the trees have been removed, the yard is bald.

Thank you very much, Xiaoyu.

It gets stuffy sitting indoors for too long

I'll take you all out to see Zhuangzi.

Go out and take a walk

Big Tree, This River is Good

If a drought year truly occurs

There's no worry about the fields not having water.

The following villages also use this river.

Fish can be eaten by oneself

It wouldn't be appropriate to sell it.

Top-quality first-class fields

Uncle, this place is worth buying.

These people doing the work are all from your family.

They are all farmers here

Originally a servant of the Jiang family

Now, along with Zhuangzi, we belong to...

They look even worse off than the poorest people in our village.

No wonder everyone says they'd rather die than be a peasant in a landlord's household.

Sons and grandsons are slaves and enslaved.

Living worse than pigs and dogs

We may be poor, but at least we're free.

They can't even leave their house.

The child will also be a farmer in the future.

It's been like this for generations.

Uncle, how many households are there in your estate?

About 50 people

More than 30 that can get out of the ground

The old and the young do odd jobs.

Plus the people you bought before

Your servants must be close to 100

There is a pavilion in front.

Go sit for a while

The master's meal is ready.

Haha, have a good trip.

Let's go eat

Even if the uncle lives in the manor, he should still come back to visit the village often.

Even though your father is gone.

But the Zhao clan is still there to support you.

Thank you, Uncle.

I go back almost every day.

The Master is still in the village

I have to go to class.

The live-in tutor you paid

Why not bring the manor?

The Master had his own plans.

Teach for a few more years

He then returned to the prefectural city to continue the imperial examinations.

I can't block other people's way.

Besides, I can see my mother every day when I go back to the village.

Now Xiao Lei is also taking classes with me.

Companions on the road

You read it together

He was a late bloomer

Are you sure you can keep up with me?

Why can't I keep up?

This kid is really putting in the effort!

Confucius said he was born to study.

It's just that my early education started late.

If you start from childhood

Now there might even be scholars.

Xiao Ping is blind to talent

Treating the useless as treasures

I guess I have good taste.

Bring a piece of raw jade home early

Becoming a Xiucai (a scholar who passes the lowest level of the imperial examinations) is not something that can be achieved simply by wanting to

I was the youngest scholar in the county back then.

This record remains unbroken to this day.

Big brother is right

But it's only after you pass the imperial examination that you become a scholar.

It seems like there haven't been any other achievements.

I don't know if it's because my qualifications have reached their limit.

Or for some other reason

Since Xiao Lei is so talented

Will we still need to take the imperial examination in the future?

I've never heard of a son-in-law who marries into his wife's family becoming an official.

My third brother's family is probably going to produce the number one person in this dynasty.

What happened? The imperial court stipulated that sons-in-law who marry into the family cannot take the imperial examinations.

I'm just worried about my third brother.

A person has fame

Broaden your horizons

It's hard to say whether they'll still acknowledge their previous marriage.

I know Xiao Lei

He's much better than some people who sell their daughters for personal gain.

If he can really pass the exam

I'll sell everything I own to support them.

He truly became the first successful live-in son-in-law.

I am proud of him.

Uncle Zhao

Have a meal

We are one of our own.

There's no need to make oaths or vows at the dinner table for the sake of outsiders.

Such a fine banquet and you still don't accept gifts?

This uncle just doesn't know how to manage a household.

The second child's family should eat more.

Give me a big, healthy grandson next year.

Hahaha

My second sister-in-law is pregnant!

Congratulations

Thank you, my third brother and sister-in-law.

Why did I let my mouth slip again?

If it really is a son

Following the third wife

Perhaps they'll be more successful than following us.

Mom, I want to go home

The way they looked at me was strange.

What do you mean by "go back"?

I would go talk to Xiaoyu whenever I had a spare moment.

After the third wife's marriage, the family business would all belong to him.

You'd be at a disadvantage if you got closer to him.

Look at his smug look.

I'm not going to try to win someone's heart.

Look, they're looking at me again.

Ignore them; they're just sour grapes.

The Qian family's inner quarters were not a place they could enter at will.

They're just jealous of me.

Xiaoyu, you need to be more careful.

A man must be held in one's hands.

Especially sons-in-law who live with their wives' families

We can't let him get too big for his britches.

Deserves to be suppressed

Cannot give money

Don't give them face

We cannot afford to send him to school.

He's really promising.

He was the first one to run.

There are rules for door-to-door visits.

You provide me with the best food and drink every day.

He also read books to him

You'll be crying later.

Brother Lei didn't steal or rob, and he was ambitious.

Why should I deliberately suppress him?

Why can't you understand?

A man may lack talent, but he is virtuous.

I understand.

So I think he's pretty good.

It would be best to pass the imperial examination to become a Xiucai (a scholar who passed the lowest level of the imperial examinations) later.

Let's make the Zhao family proud again!

I said east, but you insisted on going west.

Your whole family is here to annoy me.

daughter

How we treat Xiao Lei is our family's business.

He is good to Xiaoyu

We naturally treat him well too.

Are live-in sons-in-law not human?

We really trampled him in the mud.

Why should he treat my daughter sincerely?

The two of them are going to live their lives together from now on.

Not raising enemies

Third brother's family

They are really good to their own people.

If this is also a son

Give to three parties to raise

At least you can enjoy happiness

Mom, what are you doing?

Ru Xin, please talk to the older women.

People used to talk about you a lot.

Hello, big-breasted aunties!

Our Ru Xin is not young anymore.

Although he still had to observe mourning

It won't be delayed if you book in advance.

We know a lot of people

I'll help mediate if there's a suitable match.

daughter

Yes, yes, we are so kind, and we can even read.

Take your time to find it.

Observing three years of mourning is just right and won't cause any delay.

What happened? I've been trying to explain it to you for ages.

Why are you all pretending to be mute?

Why aren't you saying anything?

They all became mute.

My daughter Ruxin is good at reading.

Why is no one willing to arrange a marriage?

It's not that we don't want to help our younger siblings.

Ru Xin was once a concubine.

The whole village knows about this.

Which family doesn't want their daughter-in-law to carry on the family line?

She can't have children.

We really did connect her with someone.

Isn't this harming people?

How do you know who said it?

Didn't the old lady say that herself?

You're the one who told the news about Mother.

I

I didn't tell everyone.

I just mentioned it casually.

They were also told not to spread it.

Milk

Am I your granddaughter?

You've already made me so angry, isn't that enough?

You won't be satisfied until you destroy me too, will you?

How was I supposed to know they would actually spread it?

Besides, this can't be kept secret forever.

Hahaha

You want to force me to my death, huh?

I'd rather die

Can't I just die?

Stop her quickly!

Big cousin, calm down.

Let me go, I'm like this now

Are you all happy?

What face do I have left to live?

If you're going to die, don't die in the third family!

A new house is said to bring bad luck if someone dies there.

Mom, can you please shut up?

Ahhh

Babies, thank you all for liking to dress up as a peasant girl.

Raising kids and farming is incredibly fun and exciting!

The next season is currently in rapid production.

More exciting things to come!

Remember to click to reserve and add to your favorites!

What happened?

What happened? Your mother made Ruxin unable to have children.

The news about the child spread throughout the whole village.

I've had the worst luck in eight lifetimes.

She just married into your Zhao family

Wang, how dare you insult my son?

I not only scolded him

I'll still curse you

A foul mouth that keeps babbling on and on

You've ruined my old man's life.

You still came to ruin my daughter

Boss, listen to what your wife is saying, is she even speaking human language?

If she curses at me again, I'll kill myself here.

You're really willing to die.

Why didn't you go with Dad when he passed away?

Don't hit anyone, don't hit anyone.

This is my new mother-in-law

It's really what you said.

I mentioned it to someone once.

They were also told not to spread rumors.

Who knew they'd be so gossipy?

snort

Ruxin is your granddaughter.

How could you tell such a thing to others?

I already said it wasn't intentional.

Another slip of the tongue

It was the same before.

Now or

Mother, you just can't control your mouth.

Or have I never cared?

Will you kill us?

I don't care about you.

Who has all the family's money gone to for schooling over the years?

The person who truly supported my education

Always Dad

What a wonderful housewarming party!

Why did my house get smashed in the end?

completion

The whole village knows

Who will want me in the future?

Xiaoyu, what will I do in the future?

What should I do next?

Hahaha

Xiaoyu, please help me.

You have the most ideas

You must have a way.

Big cousin, I'm not a doctor

Not a man

I can't help with this.

Then let me stay at your house for a few days.

I'm going back to the village now.

Everyone will laugh at me.

Some things are impossible

It's better not to speak.

Good for everyone

Are you that afraid of me moving in?

We weren't even that close to be able to live together.

Hahaha

Don't air your dirty laundry in public.

You actually promoted your own family's reputation once or twice.

I accidentally let it slip.

Others spread it

How can you blame me?

A quick tongue

Ruin my daughter's life

You still think you're not wrong?

Okay

From now on, all important family matters will be discussed behind closed doors.

Don't tell Mother again.

What does that mean? I won't know anything from now on.

You can't control your mouth, Mom.

We can only control the information.

The third brother is right.

Don't whisper important things in his ear anymore.

Now the whole village knows that Ru Xin cannot have children.

Who can she marry in the future?

She couldn't have given birth even if I didn't tell her.

Who says she has to give birth herself?

Auntie, what do you want to do?

She really dares to do that.

ah

Auntie, may I stay at your house for a few days?

Everyone in the village knows now.

How can I face people when I go back?

Ruxin, it's not that your third aunt doesn't care about you.

We just moved in

The village was in complete chaos.

You should go home and rest quietly right now.

I won't cause trouble.

I can still accompany Xiaoyu Lihua

eldest cousin

Pear Blossom and I have someone to accompany us.

Your uncle and aunt are the most worried about you right now.

You're not going back?

Your sister-in-law thought you resented her.

Listen to Auntie's advice to go home

What are you still standing there for? Let's go!

If we dawdle any longer, it will be dark.

Finally gone

Does Chunmiao's work look good on me?

Good-looking, walk up the mountain and put

Chunmiao is all married

Don't take her running all over the mountains.

If there's already a baby in the belly

daughter

10 common seeds

I planted the processed seeds separately according to their storage time.

Record everything from sprouting and growth to harvesting.

so much land

How long are you going to keep doing this all by yourself?

Me too

Mother has finished packing

Okay, stay in the county town for seven or eight days.

Not much stuff is needed

Xiaoyu, you're already 20 this year.

The filial piety has been fulfilled.

When your dad and Xiao Lei come back from their exams

It's time to arrange your wedding.

I'll listen to my mother.

I've mastered everything I need to memorize and write.

The worst thing about entering the exam room is panicking.

Write the draft carefully before copying it onto the paper.

Master, please give me a definite answer.

I really can pass the exam.

Perform normally

No big problem

That's settled then, I'll wait until I pass the preliminary examination and come back.

I must go to my father's grave to tell him

How blind he was back then

Uncle Zhao, finish the exam first, then play the flute.

Don't discourage me

If you hadn't rolled it so recklessly...

I have long been the teacher's most outstanding student.

Go back and rest for two days

No one is allowed to stay up late anymore.

Third brother, may I speak to you privately?

Big brother has something to do

This time, both of my children also went to the county town to take the exam.

My house has been rented out.

The guesthouse was crowded.

Can I borrow your house in the county town for a few days?

Okay, you three

Go directly there two days later.

Thank you, Third Brother

Lei Zi, I agreed without discussing it with your aunt.

She won't hit me, will she?

Auntie wouldn't just eat separately.

It's impossible to say who got a stomachache during the exam.

My wife's older brother borrowed a house in the county town

I have already agreed.

Borrow it if you want.

Just a few days

Just rent a room or do you want all meals and lodging included?

Living together but eating separately

Best score

They lived in the front yard

Separate kitchen

You shouldn't prepare food for them during exams.

No one can afford to take responsibility if something goes wrong.

right

It's a favor to stay here.

Everyone is responsible for their own meals and exam preparation.

My aunt was worried, so she let

She should explain it herself.

So that they won't blame us if we don't do well on the exam.

I'm just a quick-tongued person.

I'll discuss the old house matter with you first.

Even if the father hesitates until the last minute, he will still be able to polish his brush.

Should we also bring the tutor to the county town to keep an eye on you?

You don't believe your father

I'm aiming for the title of "Children's Scholar" this time.

Believe me, didn't you say you wanted to pass the imperial examination and become a scholar?

Should I let my mother be a scholar's wife?

This cotton-padded coat lets in a lot of wind.

I'll go to the county town with you all, my husband.

Two sons taking exams

How can I sleep at home?

If you leave, who will feed the chickens and pigs?

Who takes care of the family?

Isn't there also Ruxin?

Parents, rest assured

I will take good care of the family.

My daughter is so sensible, hahaha

Where did you hide all the money you've saved over the past two years?

I used to go to school.

I got married a month later.

Separate households after marriage

Whoever wants to worship the three pillars can do so.

I'm not going to serve you anymore.

Daughter, I think a spicier flavor suits me better.

Do you like light flavors?

When did I start liking bland food?

What to do if you have an upset stomach before an exam

Now I'm sick.

Still have energy during the exam

He also loves spicy food.

Why don't you talk about him?

Did Brother Lei complain?

See? He's afraid to say it.

Xiao Lei, do you have any objections to this food?

There are no exams coming up soon.

This way of eating is good

traitor

Um

Daughter, do you know what you did that was the worst?

If you won't give me any, fine.

He still sits in front of me and eats every day.

You're stabbing your father in the heart with a knife.

I asked you to sit at separate tables before.

You insisted that family members must eat together.

How was I supposed to know you'd actually be so greedy as to tempt me?

I can't even resist spicy food for a few days.

How can one bear to enter the examination room?

It's not that I lack self-control.

I only lack self-control when it comes to our family's dishes.

Dad is so old and still so greedy.

My brother-in-law is more reliable.

Just a few more days

After the exam

My mother and I have prepared a table full of food for you.

That's more like it, hehe.

Young Master Xiao, the head of the Xiao family, requests your presence.

I'll go over there.

Why are you looking at me?

You decide your own affairs.

Go ahead, you're not being sold to our family.

Who can hold you back?

Um

Lei Zi heard that you're also going to take the imperial examination for children in a few days.

Um

Together with Uncle Zhao

Are you confident?

Do your best

Have you ever thought about this?

You are now known as the Zhao family's son-in-law.

Go higher and higher in the future

These four words are more likely to become your constraint.

It's not that everyone already knows I married into the family.

Now it's the village, what about later?

Passed the imperial examinations and became a scholar or a provincial graduate.

Even entered the court to serve as an official

What do your classmates think of you?

How your colleagues laugh at you

I didn't steal anything and I don't feel ashamed.

The imperial court did not stipulate that sons-in-law could not take the imperial examinations.

Unable to enter officialdom

You haven't truly gone out yet.

I'll see more eye-rolls from now on.

You know how awful the term "marrying into a family" sounds.

so

You called me here today because you wanted to...

Tell me how shameful it is to marry into another family.

Or is there something else you really want to talk to me about?

Lei Zi, leave the Zhao family!

Or at least get rid of the title of "son-in-law".

We, the Xiao clan, have discussed this.

As long as you are willing

The whole family supports your continued education

If the Zhao family is unwilling

At worst, we can break off the engagement.

You are a promising young man.

I'm worried I won't be able to find a wife in the future.

Why be a son-in-law who has to lower himself to someone else's level?

When Yang treated me badly before

Where is the clan?

When I was seriously ill and near death

Who has come to see me?

When I married into the Zhao family

You all say I'm lucky.

Now the Zhao family provides me with food.

Provide me with clothes and ask the teacher to instruct me.

The fruit is almost ripe

You came to pick them.

Lei Zi, we're really doing this for your own good.

What a nice way of saying 'for my own good'!

You don't understand now

Once married

It will be too late to regret it later.

I will never regret it.

Do you really want all your future children to have the surname Zhao?

So what if the surname is Zhao?

If the child takes the mother's surname, then the child is not my child.

They won't call me dad anymore.

Uncle Zhao and Aunt Zhao treated me like their own children.

Xiaoyu treats me sincerely.

One must have a conscience.

I have no official rank or title yet.

You taught me to betray the people who raised me.

I don't think being a live-in son-in-law is shameful.

Whoever laughs at him is narrow-minded.

What does it have to do with me?

Then don't get married yet.

Let's talk about it after I pass the preliminary examination.

You can marry Xiaoyu into the Xiao family.

The Zhao family can also have it.

A true man keeps his word.

To say someone is to marry into another family means to marry into another family.

I am all alone

I don't care whose surname the child takes

I am very happy to be able to enter the Zhao family.

Who will stop my marriage in the future?

Don't blame me for turning my back on you.

Really not coming back

Stubborn

They've decided on the Zhao family.

He married into the family.

Aren't they still members of the Xiao family?

He'll be successful in the future.

Asking him for help is different

Same as a fart

Marrying into another family is like a daughter marrying out of the family.

His future glory will belong to the Zhao family.

The child's surname is Zhao

The Zhao family benefits from all the descendants of the school and ancestral hall.

Such a good seed

If only we had helped him back then

Why should they recognize us now?

Shen Yuan's sister brought the big tree over.

Xiaoyu said she could give it to us.

What took me away?

You didn't even ask me.

I agreed.

Why can't we agree to that?

They urgently need such a large amount

I can move it by myself.

Take it back and saw it open

Erecting beams for the chicken coop

It also needs to be sawed open

Dad was referring to the withered tree behind you.

I know I'm just worried he won't be able to move it.

Walk

She really can move it.

Uncle Zhao lends a hand

Noon Fried Chicken

What's Xiaoyu standing there for?

Go help someone with their work

He was still unwilling to leave just now.

I couldn't bear to part with that tree.

I am Shen Yuan

Zhao Dawen lost his job and moved back to the village.

Zhao Xiaoyu's Improvement of Rice Seedling Making Makes a Diligence

The third family moved into a large farm.

Li, who was envious at the housewarming banquet

Now they've set their sights on Xiaoyu's marriage again.

Hahaha

The clan leader is back and wants to see you bring glory to the Xiao family.

Or perhaps Xiao Ping suddenly missed his son?

They want me to break off the engagement with you.

They said the Xiao family would support my education in the future.

We didn't water it before

Now that the peaches are ripe, you can come and pick them yourself.

So what do you say?

When they fart

Study hard and make those who looked down on you pay attention.

Everyone's eyes were blinded by the light.

I will definitely make you proud.

Eldest sister

Are you going to cook something delicious for Brother Lei again?

You talk too much.

My daughter makes delicious light dishes too.

Dad wants me to cook every day from now on.

Even if you're willing, I still won't agree.

Raising a daughter is a blessing for me.

Do you need a cook at home?

After getting married

Xiao Lei shouldn't even think about ordering you around.

Oh

Uncle Zhao, don't worry, I won't.

Lei Zi, are you back from your exams?

I'm going to marry my older sister.

It's time to do it.

After the exam, I went to the temple to ask for an auspicious day.

Lei Zi, do you have any ideas?

I'll leave everything to my aunt's arrangements.

I picked the pig myself

They actually came to plant my cabbages!

Why haven't they arrived yet?

If we wait any longer, it will be time to make lunch.

The third son's family had so many mule carts

What's the harm in sending one over?

father

Uncle really did say he'd come pick us up.

What exactly did the people from all over the world say that day?

It seems like they didn't say they'd come to pick you up.

He meant see you in the county town.

Babies, thank you all for liking to dress up as a peasant girl.

Raising kids and farming is incredibly fun and exciting!

The next season is currently in rapid production.

More exciting things to come!

Remember to click to reserve and add to your favorites!

My wife said we'd meet in the county town.

How could you hear that we're coming to pick us up?

Half a day of review time gone

How was I supposed to know that the third brother really wouldn't send a car?

His family has so many mule carts

What's wrong with picking someone up on the way?

We'll charter a car back this afternoon.

If they had continued attacking me back then

I was also among those entering the exam hall today.

Hahaha

Studying is so tiring

Let him play since it's a rare holiday.

Spending so much money over three years

They learned to run wild

May God and Buddha protect you.

Don't get the first or third wife.

My family only got three pillars after that.

The first successful person in the Zhao family.

The village chief's child will have an exam the day after tomorrow.

The oxcart missed it

Can you lend us your mule cart for a trip to the county town?

Ai Cheng

I delivered it personally.

I knew the village chief couldn't ruin the child's future.

Where is Zhao Dashu?

Zhao Dashu and Xiao Lei were reviewing in the study.

These rooms are for you to stay in.

The kitchen is also here.

Pots and pans are all available

You can arrange the rest yourselves.

There wasn't even oil or salt.

Your aunt didn't insist that you eat with her.

We didn't agree to each live our own lives.

This door must not be opened.

They've all finally left.

It's impossible; they clearly saved money over the past two years.

Where did it hide?

Cannot find

What are you yelling about? You can't even find money and you still have to serve me?

I refuse to believe it.

If all else fails, I'll dig this house up.

Why is the examination for the child prodigy so strictly regulated?

The cakes had to be broken into pieces.

So no cakes

One box of sweet fried rice

One box of salted fried rice

Add some beef jerky

Easy to check

It's also less likely to cause stomach upset.

I'll have to take off my clothes for a check tomorrow morning.

Outerwear, shoes, socks, and hair must all be checked.

The imperial examination system for selecting people

There are many ways to cheat.

Let's go through this question again.

What if the exam is tomorrow?

Dad really can't take it anymore.

I can't do it anymore.

Go to sleep

Exam tomorrow

You guys are sleeping more soundly than I am.

Lei Zi, go over it with your uncle again.

Why do I feel like my mind is going blank the closer the exam gets?

The Master said you can pass.

I'll stay up again tonight.

Tomorrow, Saima Youku

You're not allowed to watch anymore.

Wash up and go to bed

Did Mom not sleep last night?

Turning over and over

More nervous than me

So you'll be sleeping in separate rooms for the next few days.

Don't influence each other

I can't sleep without your mother

Talking nonsense when you're about to take the exam.

I'm telling the truth.

Eat one piece

Want good luck

Have a smooth day

You must eat

It would be best to swallow the novice scholar whole.

Roasted drinks, fried rice cakes, beef jerky, and water bladders are all available.

Don't touch anything inside, stay calm first.

What kind of storms hasn't your dad weathered?

The investigation was so detailed

Uncle Zhao, it's almost our turn.

Brother, my heart is pounding.

Don't be afraid, it's just a checkup.

Go back

It's crowded here, so be careful not to bump into people.

He can do this too, hehe.

My daughter is really lucky for me.

Don't panic, you know all the characters.

Don't panic

Ahhh no ahhhh

The paper has been destroyed.

Can't continue answering?

Jia Dong

Why are you back?

Dad, I spilled the ink.

The exam papers were all destroyed.

My son

It's over before I even answered the questions.

Dad, I'm sorry

You've taught me for so many years

I left without even answering the questions.

My son

Why am I so unlucky?

Why are you crying? It's not like you cheated.

It's not like you can't take the exam for life.

But I disappointed my father.

However, it will be a year later.

Take the exam again next year

We can wait.

Um

Jia Dong returned in the morning.

Your aunt cried for a long time.

Submitting the exam early

So confident

Unlike

If they don't tell us, then we shouldn't ask.

Exams are tough enough.

Don't poke at someone's wound.

That's what I think too.

Father Xiao Lei

How long have we been waiting?

I just arrived and I'm going home first.

I'm tired after a long day.

How were the questions today?

Daughter is not a braggart

I know all the questions from today.

We compared answers.

Exactly the same

If there are no unexpected events

Uncle Zhao and I should both pass the test.

real

Nobody should go to the rankings tomorrow morning.

Send a servant to see

If I can't pass today's test...

Not many people in that exam hall will pass, hahaha.

After being happy

The next one will be even harder.

Continue reviewing

Why

I, the head of the household, dare not look.

Our son must be here, right?

I retested him with yesterday's questions; he'll definitely pass.

I won! I won!

What number is my son?

I didn't see the young master.

I only look at my husband and son-in-law.

They've passed away too.

Of course, the son-in-law is second.

My husband is the seventh

Master has passed

Second son-in-law

The seventh master

Both of them passed.

Our answers were clearly the same.

Why is he second and I seventh?

Uncle Zhao, I don't know either.

Unfair, absolutely unfair

Dad, your handwriting isn't as good as Lei Zi's.

It's fine as long as it passes.

After being happy, I continued to review.

It gets harder and harder later on.

Honey, can't you let me be happy for just a little while longer?

Can't find my son?

In the 42nd

May God and Buddha protect you.

I knew my son would pass.

The third son, seventh

Um

Could it be that Dad really misjudged him back then?

What's wrong, honey? Don't scare me!

Oh, what are you doing?

I'm so glad I saved you! I thought you were so happy you'd lost your mind.

Do it again

The second match tomorrow

Nobody is allowed to fall down.

It's already past midnight, Dad.

I can't take the exam this year.

You can't take the exam, you should listen.

Your third uncle has only been studying for a few years and he's already seventh.

You've been studying for so many years

Where do you put your face?

Brother Lei

Stable performance

Yeah, always messing around

It would be better to take the exam once over three days.

Early exams mean early relief

Let's go, Uncle Zhao.

Um

If you really want to do that

Don't risk your life

As long as his stomach is uncomfortable

If I don't perform well in tomorrow's last game, then it's all over.

Third brother, have a freshly steamed meat bun?

I appreciate your kindness, brother.

I don't eat outside food during the exam period.

Even if it's given by my older brother, it's still considered an outsider.

I won't eat it no matter who offers it to me.

If something goes wrong, who's responsible?

All six steamed buns were wasted.

Why are Uncle Zhao and the others keeping looking at me?

Who knows, don't bother.

Dad, I want to study with the tutor from my third uncle's family.

What's the meaning

You think your dad is bad at teaching

Don't we know what kind of background Uncle San has?

Three or four years ago, a seventh place

A second

Can one person say they have two kinds of luck?

Why did Third Uncle travel so far to the prefectural city to invite a teacher?

They even built a house for one family.

We used to laugh at him for being foolish and having too much money.

It's not that he's stupid.

We just didn't understand.

The tutor of the third son in the family must be no ordinary person.

Ordinary scholar

Why would he need to travel all the way from the prefectural city to bring him back?

Dad went back to the village, let's go ask him.

My older brother and I also want to study with him.

Find out first

Really capable

Even if forced

I have to stuff you all in too.

The third brother has already paid his tuition.

Surely a family can't charge us another share?

Mother

I'm actually considered young for my age.

The Master didn't lie to me.

Each match is more difficult than the last.

My third uncle is even a good writer.

How does Uncle Zhao feel?

Not bad, not bad.

father

Daughter

How difficult is it?

It's not that your dad did a particularly good job.

This time I'll definitely make you proud.

I knew Dad was the best.

Third brother, do you really think you did well on the test?

Very good, quite good

Your uncle is more petty than a needle.

He can't stand seeing your dad being even slightly better than him.

No need to compare yourself to him

Anyway, in my heart

Dad is the best.

That's right, if they don't come, it'll save us food, haha.

Mom, why don't we eat in the backyard?

The food at my third uncle's house was so delicious!

You think you have a mountain of gold at home?

The exams have made me picky about what I eat.

Will I continue my studies?

Head of household

When will you ask the third brother about the Master's affairs?

Go tonight

For the future of my two sons

I don't want this face anymore.

Third Uncle and the others study in the morning

We will study in the afternoon.

Nothing will be delayed

But the tutor was hired by my third uncle with money.

Why make such distinctions among family members?

Dad's results will have to wait a few more days

Should we wait in the county town or go back to the village?

Lei Zi, what do you think?

Uncle Zhao, if you pass the preliminary examination

I want to continue to take the imperial examination in the prefectural city.

Still taking the test

Regardless of whether it's Chinese or not

I want to try it once.

Who says I won't take the exam?

Of course I'll go too.

Having a companion

Everyone in my family is more ambitious than the last.

I can't even take a break

Tell me.

Third brother, I want to discuss something with you.

Let your two nephews also study with your tutor.

Your morning

They in the afternoon

We still give tuition fees.

Never learn in vain

Unsuccessful

Why doesn't it work?

He lives in your house

Take your tuition

It's still up to you.

The agreement was made at the beginning

He only taught us for half a day.

Half a day remaining

They themselves also need to study.

Third son

If you're going to refuse, at least come up with a decent excuse.

I'm telling the truth.

Whether you believe it or not, it's the same.

I disagree with this.

How about it? Did you agree?

No

They can go to the prefectural city to invite them.

We'll go invite them too.

Can afford people

Can you afford to hire such a large family? Where will they live? What will their wages be?

Are you suggesting we build another house to support them?

The money the third brother spent over the years

Our family simply can't keep up.

How did Da Shu do on the exam?

My brothers are all waiting for you to become a scholar!

The list hasn't been released yet, so who knows?

He dared to take the field after only a few years of study.

It's normal to fail the exam

If you pass the exam, you're a genius.

My brother will throw you a banquet then.

When will the list be released?

We'll go with you to see it.

Five days later

Let's drink first today.

If I don't drink, I'll have to go find the Master.

I just finished the exam and am still studying.

If you don't win, who will?

Not bad, at this level

There should be no problem with becoming a child prodigy.

If Lei Zi is right

Do you want to continue to the prefectural city to take the imperial examination for the title of Xiucai?

You can try it if you want.

Master, what about me?

I'm a grown man, didn't you see me?

You can go too.

It's just a little worse than Lei Zi.

Praise him if you want to.

Why did you have to step on me?

Master, please continue to teach us.

As you wish

The pig hasn't lost weight, has it?

Are the chickens still alive?

Everything is fine.

It turned out the silver was hidden in the son's room and study.

Half a day of rest is enough to continue reading.

If you don't work harder

Your third uncle must have slapped my face so hard it's swollen.

Big tree, you sit

We'll look after you.

You don't even recognize the three characters "Zhao Dashu"

What are you looking at?

The village chief knew him.

Hahaha

May God and Buddha protect you.

Even if the third child wins

And definitely don't get too high a score.

The list is here

The Dad Ranking is Here

Uncle Zhao won.

How many

13

Lin 13 13

I've really become a novice monk!

Dad, I knew you could win.

Where is our son?

Look at our son!

Don't look for Zhao Jiaqiang anymore, chapter 45

It's good that I won!

Brother, you've found the perfect son-in-law!

Second place!

Xiao Lei has only been studying for a few years.

That's really impressive.

Of course I have good taste.

Go back to the village to hold a banquet

Two students celebrate together

Hahaha

Let's postpone the banquet.

Lei Zi still wants to go to the prefectural city to take the imperial examination for the title of Xiucai.

You want to take the exam to get into a higher level?

I went with him

The father and son have a companion

ah

He still needs to take the imperial examination to become a scholar.

Big Tree, you two both passed the preliminary examination.

This time we must go back to the village to hold a banquet.

My stomach is empty.

He passed the exam after only a few years of study.

Our village hasn't produced more than two students who passed the imperial examinations in all these years.

This wine is not to be trifled with.

Even God wouldn't allow it.

The wine will definitely be served.

But not now.

Such a joyous occasion, and we still have to wait?

Lei Zi still needs to go to the prefectural city to take the imperial examination for the title of Xiucai.

The Master said that what comes next is truly difficult.

We can't just get a child prodigy.

They spent all their money on the banquet.

The uncle is right.

The student had only just entered the gate.

Only after passing the county-level examination can one truly establish oneself.

Then you should go too.

go

I'm worried about Lei Zi going alone.

Father and son walk together

Uncle Zhao, you don't actually need to

Stop talking like that.

Wherever you go, Uncle will go.

Our family can't fall apart halfway through life.

father

The road to the prefectural city is long

Carriage, house, rent, books, trees, fertilizer

There's also room and board for three people.

All need silver

Don't we still have silver in our house?

It's not that there isn't enough silver.

We cannot only look at the present.

If we want to live in the prefectural city forever

Even small shops and workshops need to be managed.

Daughter

Do you think Dad might not pass the exam this time?

I think Dad will do his best.

But doing your best and being certain of passing the exam are two different things.

Let's make arrangements for our backup plan first.

Only then can Dad move forward with peace of mind.

Xiaoyu is right.

If it's just to save face

It shook the foundation of the family.

It's not worth it.

Let's postpone the big banquet for now.

Wait for the list of successful candidates to be released

Two happy events held together

Make it even more lively

All the young scholars in the family passed the imperial examinations.

Why does it feel like we're going to war?

The Master said that all the students in the prefectural city are...

Candidates from various regions who passed the imperial examinations

Our abilities are not enough to impress you.

This is the daily schedule I've prepared for you.

Reciting in the morning

Practice writing in the afternoon

Evening review

Just follow these steps and don't panic.

Daughter, you're taking care of Dad.

Or in charge of prisoners

If father disobeys

I'll lock up all your wine jugs.

Uncle Zhao always listens to Xiaoyu; she's never wrong.

You joined in the commotion too.

I am the future father-in-law of the scholar.

The Haha Ranking has just been released.

The prospective father-in-law started putting on airs.

snort

The third son said they would hold the banquet after the scholar's examination.

The whole village will go then

Why not do it now?

Once you pass the preliminary examination, you dare to pick your own date.

I'd like to ask the third brother.

Who gave him the guts?

Daibun Daibun

Our Zhao family's ancestral graves are emitting auspicious smoke, hahaha!

Mother, what brings you here?

The son, grandson, and granddaughter-in-law all passed the imperial examination.

I can choose not to come

Both of your family members won.

Only one was correct.

Jia Dong spilled ink during the exam

The test paper was ruined

Oh dear, why are you so clumsy?

He got himself out without even answering the question.

Bad luck with exams this year

Come again next year

What's wrong with waiting a year?

Sooner or later, he'll be a student of the lowest level.

No, I have to go find the third brother.

Xiao Lei is already second.

What if they get too big for their britches?

We shouldn't have supported his education so much in the first place.

Mother, etc.

I have something important to tell you.

Mother, do you know about the third brother and Xiao Lei?

Why did you get such a good score?

Smart, huh?

The villagers all say that your father and I made the wrong choice back then.

They say big trees should start school early.

He might have become an official long ago.

The teacher that Lao San invited back from the prefectural city.

Absolutely extraordinary

But the third brother said that the teacher was also a scholar.

Is it worth him spending so much money on an ordinary scholar?

The two have only been in school for a few years

All of them were placed at the top of the list.

Too

So, Mom, go and tell the third son.

Let Ka-keung and Ka-tung also learn from that teacher.

We give tuition

Aren't you a scholar yourself?

I also taught at the academy for a few years.

How come your own son has been studying with you for so many years?

On the contrary, he couldn't outperform the third child.

From this perspective, that teacher is indeed much more capable than you.

Mother, we're talking about our grandson's future now.

Mother, you are the third son's biological mother.

He can't very well refuse to give you face once you ask, right?

I can only try to persuade them.

What does it mean to persuade?

You have to persevere.

How could he disobey his own mother?

Don't you dare mess with me.

Your third brother is now taking care of my food and drink.

Give gifts during holidays

I was hoping he could enjoy his retirement.

But Ka-keung and Ka-tung are also your grandsons.

Grandson is grandson

You can't offend your sugar daddy

The person in charge is also suffering.

It's nothing, I just caught a cold last night.

Dafang won one

Two of the three parties won.

We still have three pillars.

Three sons

There's no one left who can get off the field.

I just heard my older brother and the others say...

The tutor in my third brother's family is probably exceptionally skilled.

Or maybe we should have Sanzhuzi recite along with us from now on.

Let's see if the eldest brother can succeed.

He couldn't get it even if he begged.

It would be a waste of our time to go.

Third brother

Third son

Mother is here

Manaka Ryotōsei

Mom was happy when I won.

Your dad would be ecstatic if he knew.

Haha, yeah.

It's a pity my father is gone.

Such a joyous occasion

No need to hire an opera troupe for the banquet.

Singing for several days in a lively atmosphere

Not doing

Next month, Lei Zi and I are going to the prefectural city to take the imperial examination for the title of Xiucai.

I need to hurry up and study.

What? You're taking the imperial examination to become a scholar?

The eldest son was selected as a children's book student back then.

I studied for three more years before daring to take the exam.

You're even better than him.

Mom didn't say you're no good.

It's worth a try.

Third brother, will your mother go to the prefectural city with you?

Mom, where are you going?

I've lived this long and I've never been to the prefectural city.

You're studying, so let Song accompany me shopping.

I promise I won't bother you.

no

During the exams, the entire prefectural city was filled with students.

I don't even know where I live.

I don't have time to take you out to play.

I can still walk now.

Wait a few more years

My old arms and legs can't move.

You want to take me

I can't go anymore.

This time it really won't work.

Will I ever be able to see the prefectural city again in my lifetime?

Can wait until the exam is over?

I'll send two people with you.

I'll cover all your food and drinks on the way.

Let you have a comfortable shopping trip

real

You can't wait until I'm about to die to think of this.

I remember your dying wish.

Your son will definitely do it for you.

Third brother, after you go to the prefectural city...

Then the teacher will have free time.

Why don't you let your two nephews...

Mother, if my elder brother asks you to talk to the teacher...

No need to say anything more.

There was absolutely no room for negotiation.

It's not that I don't want to

The teacher also wanted to study in the afternoon.

They will take the imperial examination to become a scholar in the future.

Besides, I give my teacher at least five taels of silver a month as tuition.

Holiday gifts are charged separately.

10 taels is robbery!

Your older brother used to teach a large group of students.

How much in a month?

Not all scholars are the same.

If my older brother is really that good at teaching

His two sons have been studying for so many years

How come there's a 45th one?

One who didn't even win the first game

I always thought the eldest brother

Failing to pass the imperial examination was due to bad luck.

Now it's obvious he's incompetent.

Don't even think about it, one child costs 5 taels.

10 taels for two children

You can't afford it.

The third brother should just say he doesn't want to give it.

Who are you trying to humiliate with this price?

If he's rich, why would he lie to you about this?

Do you think 10 taels is too much?

They might have given more than that.

Mother's path is also blocked.

I teach myself

He will pass the imperial examination and become a Xiucai (a scholar who passed the lowest level of the imperial examinations).

Send it to the prefectural city again

I told you to treat Lei Zi well before.

Have you heard of it?

Now that he's a child prodigy...

You're not even his father.

Isn't the letter severing ties with you?

Or should we tear it?

I'm still his father even if you tear me apart.

He became successful later.

You can't just abandon your own father, can you?

The county government has already filed the records.

You can treat tearing up a piece of paper as if nothing happened.

Chieftain, I also want to get my son back.

Get out of here, get out of here right now!

Yang is bad

At least the damage is on the surface.

You are even more despicable than Yang Shi, your own father.

Chieftain, listen to me.

Tear up the letter of severance

I'm still his dad

What a load of rubbish, the county government has already registered it.

If you're so capable, go find the county magistrate to change it.

County Government Office

Get lost and don't come back, whether you have something to do or not.

Try not to get angry.

The doctor said

You can't rush

I'm not angry at Xiao Ping.

I feel sorry for Xiao Lei

Second place in the imperial examination!

I heard that I still have to go to the prefectural city to take the imperial examination for the title of Xiucai.

Manaka Ryosuke

How many years will it take for our Xiao clan to produce another one like him?

Summon several clan elders

Ask Xiao Cheng to invite him.

Just say what you need to say.

I'll go to the prefectural city in a few days.

I don't have time to go back and forth.

Lei Zi, my father, and several clan elders were all waiting.

Come with me.

What do you want to say?

We all know

I was advised to break off the engagement.

Leaving the Zhao family

This is not excessive.

Better to demolish ten temples

Don't break up a marriage

You're undermining Uncle Zhao's relationship.

Digging into someone's house

And you blame me for not giving you face?

What about breaking off an engagement? What about poaching someone's partner?

Uncle Zhao, the clan chief came to see me last time

Nothing much, just the clan wishing him good luck on his exam.

Do they want you to stop using Xiaoyu?

After that, you truly passed the imperial examinations and became a scholar or a provincial graduate.

He even became an official.

I will not regret it.

Uncle Zhao, I recognize Xiaoyu.

It's also this home

I have no ulterior motives.

Let's go, the Master is waiting.

Where is Xiao Lei?

Don't wait

He won't come.

Xiao Lei is really using the Zhao family as a way out.

But the old doctor took care of him for nothing all that time.

He later really did work as a caregiver.

Xiao Ping doesn't care about him

Xiao Ping didn't treat him like a son.

Who is truly good to him?

He didn't mistreat anyone.

Zhao Dashu wasn't stupid.

Having lived together day and night for so many years

They still dared to support his education.

He was provided with the opportunity to take the imperial examinations for the lowest degree (童生秀才).

This shows that people truly believe him.

Could it be that he truly and willingly agreed to marry into the family?

He's heading to the prefectural city right now.

Studying is the most important thing

Let's not make things worse.

Okay, let's talk about it when he gets back from his exam.

Mother, you've gone to find me a husband again.

No one nearby was willing

I searched further away.

You can always find the right one

You run like this every day

People think I'd never get married even if I paid them to.

Can face be eaten?

If this drags on any longer, nobody will really want them.

Mother, I don't have time to embroider anymore.

It would look beautiful if sewn into a wedding dress.

You've been begging for this piece of red cloth for a year.

You only get married once in a lifetime

We can't let people laugh at our family.

Mother gave me an ounce of gold as a last resort.

I've saved up more than one or two taels of silver myself.

So you won't arrive at your husband's family home empty-handed.

A wedding

I've spent almost half a year on three beads.

The money I earned this year is simply not enough to live on.

After Zhaodi got married

We still need to find a wife for Dazhuzi soon.

Wedding expenses

Getting married costs money

Another mouth to feed in the family

One after another

It was all silver.

Please ask your mother-in-law to go in and inform them.

It is said that Zhao Ruxin requested an audience with Madam Qian.

There is no such person in the Qian family.

I used to live in the mansion.

Madam knows who I am.

The past is the past.

You are no longer a member of the Qian family.

Don't stand here and make a fool of yourself.

This was a gift from my wife years ago.

Take it in

She will definitely see me.

The lady said to take it away

Let bygones be bygones

The Qian family will no longer arrange anything for you.

I'm not here to ask for money.

I just want to see the lady.

Miss Zhao now has a proper mistress in the Qian family.

Have sons and daughters

It's not a problem to have an old friend come back and cause trouble.

Where did you go?

No one was seen all afternoon

Nowhere

Isn't this the Qian family's?

Mother, please don't ask anymore.

Did you go to see the Qian family again?

I just wanted to ask

Could they help me find a family?

As long as the person is honest

I don't care about the few acres of land my family has.

Now I know not to be picky.

I told you about the widow the other day

You don't think they're poor?

I used to have a good life too.

Am I destined to spend my whole life rolling in the mud?

You think I don't want you to have a good life?

But life isn't something you can turn back time on.

The Qian family closed the door.

We can only keep searching forward.

Look ahead and find a man who has nothing.

Drag me into the mud too

It's better than you growing old and dying alone at home.

Ruxin's matter can't be delayed any longer.

I've asked around in the neighborhood.

When people heard that she came from the Qian family...

It's not that I dislike my reputation

They just disliked her because she couldn't have children.

Then look further away.

People in the distance don't know her past.

There might still be a chance.

The dowry should not be too small.

Otherwise, no one will accept it.

Where in the family would there be any money left to prepare a dowry for her?

Sell ​​two items that can be sold first.

Ru Xin can't stay at home forever.

Tomorrow I'll go to a more distant village to ask.

No matter what kind of family

We have to meet first.

They all think I'm a burden.

I will not accept my fate.

Zhao Di left

Who will do all the housework?

Setting up stalls in the fields and vegetable gardens

How can the two of us manage?

It would be good for Zhaodi to get married.

Dazhu's wife just happened to fill in.

Waiting for the new bride to enter the house

Let the couple clear the land together.

Husband and wife working together

We can't accuse us of being biased, can we?

If he dares not to do it, he shouldn't eat.

I didn't raise this son to be an ancestor.

Big Pillar has become increasingly difficult to manage in the last two years.

He's corrupted Erzhuzi.

When we get old

I wouldn't dare rely on him for my old age.

Who will I be with in the future?

The second child is hard to manage and doesn't have a clear idea of ​​what to do.

If only you had treated Xiao Lei even a little bit better back then...

I am now the father of the young scholar.

You can't even control your own son, yet you blame me for being useless.

Brother, when can we be like Xiao Lei?

Find a girl from a wealthy family

You won't have to worry about anything from now on.

It's not that you can't find someone with money.

Who have you taken a fancy to?

Tiger Uncle's daughter

I'm getting old

But she's not pretty.

How much is a face worth?

His dad being rich is the real deal.

As long as the marriage is settled

A dowry is indispensable

When you are short of money

Can the Yue family really watch their daughter suffer?

Marry her and treat her like royalty.

Anyway, it's a money tree

It hurts so much

Why don't you rest?

After this injury

It will be too late to plant again.

The time for rest in the fields waits for no one.

I'll take this row for you, don't force yourself to stay.

What will happen if it gets too big and breaks?

Digging a hole is one thing

Sowing seeds requires another bend.

If the seeds could fall into the pit along the bamboo tube...

At least you can make fewer bends

Miss, this place is both dry and wet.

The depth varies with each step.

How could it be as neatly arranged as things on a table?

Therefore, we have to go down to the ground to test.

Please don't rush off.

Find fault with me later

Good heavens, other people only have two or three eggs per nest.

You plan to grow a forest from a single nest?

As soon as the opening is opened, the top ones all squeeze downwards.

Simply blocking the bottom won't work.

We need to separate out the few grains that were added later.

Make the large container shallower.

Add a pick with small squares

First, put it into the small compartment.

Then transfer to the seed slit.

Don't let the whole bucket fall down.

It's stuck again, maybe I should get it cut first.

The farmers are still waiting to plant their seeds.

I thought it would save everyone trouble.

It was delayed by half a day.

The mouth was stabbed too deep

The wet mud pushed in.

When I plant seeds, I can't just dig all the way down with my hoe.

Add a corner guard on the side

Stop inserting here

Bamboo beak protects the seed-dropping opening

Try it on both the dry and wet areas.

It's not enough to just feel comfortable in the shed.

A few nests were missed just now.

Several times

I wrote them all down.

Miss, you are fast

But I can see every single one on my side.

Put the bamboo tube down

Who knows if there are any holes?

That's right, pick a few places and look at them.

Those with deep leaks are all counted.

It's not just about who gets there first.

I tried ten steps

If even my clumsy hands could manage...

That's really effective.

After this crop is planted

My back is still straight

Spring planting in previous years

Did you get through it all like this?

I didn't realize it when I was young.

Now, as soon as it bends down...

First, think about whether you can get up.

I just said he wouldn't work.

I'm afraid my hopes will be in vain.

Not yet complete

The mud is too sticky to use.

If the size of the beans is too different, they will get stuck.

Please try it for me again.

Where is it difficult to use?

Let's continue revising.

Replenish missing seedlings later

Revenue breakdown

Even if there isn't much grain

It's useful to at least avoid this suffering.

Um

Both sides used common varieties today.

First compare methods

Don't use seed number 3 for mixed testing.

Ultimately, more or less will be collected.

They can't even tell which one is playing a role.

My grandson asked for a hug last night.

I couldn't lift it.

If this effort could really be saved in the fields...

We can give him a better position when we get back.

That's not something you can do for a lifetime.

Whose waist is free?

It's fragrant and filling.

I just don't know how long it can last.

These are the first tastes

Go to the prefectural city and redo it.

It's best to do it the day before the exam.

Oil tea noodles can be eaten simply by mixing them with water.

Dried meat replenishes energy

Nut balls are filling

Peppermint candy to refresh

Prepare some ginger slices to prevent stomach upset.

Honey, are you taking an exam or moving the kitchen in?

The exam lasts for three days.

I can't help with this problem.

At least they shouldn't go hungry.

Stinky and sleepy

It tastes much better than other people bringing dry biscuits.

I think it's great too.

I say yes, and you say yes too.

Why do you copy everything I do?

It really tastes good.

Poor diet can also affect exam mindset.

You two are now heroes of the Zhao family.

Don't worry, my daughter.

This time, Dad will definitely earn you a scholar's degree.

Just do your best

If it doesn't work this time, there will be a next time.

Don't push yourself to the brink.

Let's go to the prefectural city as soon as possible.

Let's see if there are any houses near the exam venue.

Buy if it suits you

Buy more jewelry and clothes for your mother and the three of you, and pick out some nice ones.

good

Uncle Zhao, you usually hand over all the money you earn to your family.

What's the point of keeping it at home if you don't hand it over?

Man secretly hides money

That's the first step to going bad.

I remember.

My wife is dressed beautifully

Eating well and living a comfortable life

Only outsiders know that a man is capable

From now on, all my money will go to Xiaoyu.

I'll teach you how to be a person.

I didn't let you have your eye on my daughter's money first.

Hahaha

Zhao Di will go out the day after tomorrow.

I'll put on makeup tomorrow.

What would be appropriate for us to give?

As long as it looks acceptable.

We're not that close to the old house.

I was prepared long ago.

Are you crazy, girl with such a big neck?

Mother, pick it up gently.

Haha, looks like it could kill someone.

In fact, the thin ones deflate easily when pressed.

Custom-made by the jewelry store

Dignity

The price of silver didn't drop much.

Xiaoyu is very well prepared.

You approve of everything he does.

Zhao Di is already married.

When is my older sister getting married?

Pear Blossom, why are you so eager for your sister to go out?

Or we can do it after we return from the prefectural city.

When I get back, I'll find someone to choose an auspicious date.

Thank you, Uncle Zhao.

You agreed so quickly.

Dad, I'll listen to you.

The wedding dress was made at the best shop in the prefectural city.

Choose the best jewelry

My daughter's marriage cannot be compromised in the slightest.

Is Mom pretty?

My daughter looks good in everything.

Mom, what will Uncle San's family in Tianzhuang give us tomorrow?

It's their money, that's their business.

Don't overthink it

However, your third uncle is concerned about his reputation.

It shouldn't be too bad.

After marrying into the family

Make sure you keep your dowry safe.

The husband's family has many brothers

They will definitely split up in the future.

You can't put all your money in.

Mother, I know

Mom, let me sweep for you.

Today you are the bride, sitting down

Mom will stew brown sugar eggs for you

Why

One is not as good as the other.

The second son's family

Why are brooms piled up at the door?

Da Xi's nephew looks terrible, quickly move him away.

And this dust hasn't been wiped clean yet.

Why haven't those bowls been washed yet?

Mother, please come into the main room and sit down.

The women arrived shortly afterward.

We'll have to rely on you for hospitality.

That's more like it.

Make me a bowl of brown sugar tea, add extra sugar.

Is your mother here to add to the village or to act like an ancestor?

Be patient and don't argue today.

If you ask me...

Zhao Di's in-laws are really not good.

Twenty acres sounds like a lot

But there are a lot of brothers

What's left after one point?

The house is still a decades-old mud-brick house.

The whole family squeezed together

After attracting butterflies...

Perhaps I have a hard life.

Er Yongjia, don't take it to heart.

Your mother-in-law is just too talkative.

To say that one has good fortune

It still has to be the third child's family, Xiaoyu.

No need to serve your in-laws

From now on, I will be the head of the household.

Xiao Lei lived up to expectations again.

To rank so high on the first exam

Xiaoyu has grown up better and better in the past two years.

She looks like a city girl.

Of course, among my three granddaughters

She's having the best days right now.

I heard that Da Shu and Xiao Lei are going to the prefectural city to take the imperial examination.

Go next month

eldest daughter

Why didn't that eldest grandson go along?

Three people can still keep each other company

He is still young

The head of the household said to be down-to-earth

Take the exam again in two years

Running too fast can easily lead to a fall.

Oh yes.

The eldest grandson's ranking was so far behind that of the big tree.

I'm not confident even if I go now.

Who would have thought?

The naughtiest

The third child who is the most troublesome

Instead, he became the most studious child in the Zhao family.

Oh well, it's all fate.

I'm not going.

Your mother was in front of a room full of people.

They say our son is not as good as the third son.

They even said that the third son was the most studious in the Zhao family.

Why is Mom bringing this up out of the blue?

I sat down again

I'm really afraid I won't be able to resist hitting him.

Ignore him

The more you pay attention to them, the more enthusiastic they become.

Go to Zhaodi's room and help her hide far away.

Song's Little Rain and Pear Blossoms Arrive

Song Meizi, sit here

Then the two of us will sit here.

Ms. Song, how come you seem to get younger and younger all these years?

There's nothing wrong with doing less heavy work now.

Is the woman's life good or not?

It was obvious at a glance.

Third Aunt

In the blink of an eye, Zhao Di is about to get married.

Time flies.

Is my flower too big?

Where is it big and beautiful?

The bride must be radiant and prosperous.

Especially these two flowers

It makes your face look even whiter.

ah

real

Mommy said you looked good today.

Yes, it looks good.

Then I won't pick them.

Whether you're genuinely praising or not...

Anyway, I believed it.

After Zhaodi got married, she became Dazhuzi.

The Wang family members have all reached a certain age.

There was also light rain.

There's so much wedding banquet going to be held at Old Zhao's house this year!

Haha, let's send out three students first.

Remarrying

The big tree needs another scholar to be planted.

That's what you call double happiness!

Will Xiaoyu hold a wedding this year?

He's the youngest, so there's no rush.

First, take care of the children of my eldest and second sisters-in-law.

Once you get married, you belong to someone else's family.

Solve your own problems

Don't go to your parents' house too often

Come back and visit your parents more often.

And don't forget to bring something for the milk.

This is something Grandma bought especially for you.

Thank you, Grandma

Aunt Zhaodi wishes you a harmonious and happy life from now on.

A mother still loves her child the most.

Zhao Di

Third Aunt hopes you have a smooth and happy life from now on.

Enjoy

My mother has such a big silver bracelet.

How much silver would that cost?

What are you going to do with it?

She's about to get married to someone else.

Thank you, Auntie.

Cousin, this is the dowry for Pear Blossom and me.

Thank you

Zhao Di, your third aunt is too generous!

Such a big bracelet

How can we have this at our wedding?

These are all my third aunt's good intentions.

I will definitely keep it safe.

Nobody will give

It can't compare to Xiaoyu.

Can be compared with others

I'm not bad either.

You must keep your dowry safe.

The woman married

Having money in hand gives you confidence.

I know

From now on, I will only keep my money for myself and my children.

Why is it so light?

Something terrible has happened to my mother.

Such a big silver bracelet

It looks like it's made of paper.

It's empty inside.

The silver lilacs that Xiaoyu and the others gave them were also hollow.

What a fine Song family!

She gained all the face.

Not a single penny was spared.

This thing looks like it's worth tens of taels of silver.

How much silver is actually available?

Mom, I'm getting married tomorrow.

Are we just going to let it go like this?

Let's just say we don't care about their stuff.

Mom will give you another tael of silver to put in your dowry.

We can lose anything but face.

These two

Another ounce or two.

Why are Niang Zhaodi and the others crying?

I can't bear to get married

Why bother with them?

You say this first.

26. His wife died.

Three children

Two acres of land, two thatched huts, and an honest man.

Good health

Three burdens

The family is still so poor

Poor as they may be, they were still young and honest.

You two take it easy.

Things will always get better.

daughter

I used to wear gold and silver at the Qian family's house.

Now you want me to marry Lian

The innkeeper was worse off than a beggar in the city.

Be content.

The ones before that are not as good as this one.

At least he's young and honest.

I can be with you until we grow old

This is the kind of person I can only marry.

How long do you plan to drag this out?

Zhao Di wants to get married

Xiaoyu also wants to get married.

You are the oldest

Does this mean I'll never get married?

Mother, didn't you mention Xiao Lei before?

What are you planning to do now?

He is now a student.

You also need to take the imperial examination to become a scholar.

Why can't I marry him?

In what way am I inferior to Xiaoyu?

Wake up!

The Xiao clan went to persuade him to leave the Zhao family.

He refused

Do you think he will want you?

So what if I followed Master Qian?

Not all men

That's enough.

You can't give birth

His reputation is ruined again.

I've traveled to so many places in the past few years

Even the poorest families wouldn't want to marry you.

You still have designs on Xiao Lei

Mother, do you also think I'm embarrassing?

I'm just afraid you'll miss this again.

There won't even be one like this in the future.

wife

Can't I just marry him?

Light rain

You said the second wife discovered the bracelet was hollow.

So what if we find out?

We didn't say it was solid.

Just adding makeup

It's not like she's providing a dowry for her parents.

Too

After the wedding dinner tomorrow

I'll pack up and head to the prefectural city the day after tomorrow.

Let the Master come along this time too.

Follow only the teacher

His family didn't go.

With a teacher guiding him all the way

Your dad and the others can learn more too.

After Mother came back this time

The Master is about to leave.

What

If the head of the household really leaves...

Yes, he wants to take the imperial examination to become a scholar next year.

I need to go to the academy to continue my studies.

We can't stay at home forever teaching the two of us.

The Master delayed his studies for several years because of us.

It's time to go my own way.

Then let the teacher go and take the exam with peace of mind.

He walked forward

Dad and Brother Lei also walked forward.

Dowry banquet table and chest of silver

It adds up to quite a lot.

If you hire another car

I'm afraid we won't even have enough money to buy meat.

The car must have

Zhaodi got married

We can't let our in-laws think we're poor.

Doesn't my third brother's family have a mule cart?

Go borrow one tomorrow.

Borrowing is definitely possible

My third brother is rich now.

We can't be so stingy with even a car.

Then you should go first thing tomorrow morning.

Don't wait until the wedding procession to remember.

I know I'll go tomorrow morning.

We need to borrow Uncle's car for our wedding procession.

If I don't lend you a car, do you expect your sister to take an oxcart there?

You can also ride in an oxcart

Wouldn't it be better to use the money saved to buy two more pounds of meat?

What do you know?

The Lin family has many brothers.

We can't let people think that Zhao Di's family is incompetent.

Now you know you need to care about face?

He usually gave all his silver to Sanzhuzi.

Family life also needs to be lived.

The second child will be married off tomorrow.

The car needs to be fixed.

Zhao Di is a girl from the Zhao family.

Don't let people laugh at you.

Don't worry, Mom, I'll go see the third brother tomorrow morning.

That's more like it.

The third family's cars were so many that they were lined up all the way to the village entrance.

Borrowing a car is nothing

Don't forget tomorrow.

I only know about one car.

Can I still forget?

Dad, didn't you say you'd borrow the car this morning?

We'll talk about it tomorrow morning.

Let's get right to the task at hand.

Mother, we really need to borrow Uncle's mule cart tomorrow.

Borrowing a car for the wedding would look more respectable.

Will Uncle San agree?

Your third uncle is rich now.

I love you, my niece.

I definitely won't refuse.

I don't want you to spend too much money on me.

This is the only time to marry off a daughter.

No matter how hard life is for your mother, she won't let you go out empty-handed.

Mom, I'll live well in my husband's family.

I don't want you to worry.

Just remember

If she suffers grievances after marrying into the family, she should come back.

Mother is not capable of making you rich and powerful.

But Mom will always be on your side.

I'll definitely borrow the car tomorrow morning.

Did you hear that? Your dad already said it.

Mom, am I pretty?

So beautiful!

The son-in-law will definitely stare at her.

My skills are worth at least 20 coins outside.

Mother, I want my wedding to be painted like this too.

Don't worry, Mom will go to the county town to find you a good one.

I will never let you draw it like a monkey's butt.

Last night I thought of Zhao Di and wanted

So many of the Zhao family's things left

I haven't been able to sleep well because I'm so heartbroken.

Especially if your hand seams are too wide

The third son doesn't earn money easily either.

You can't be so generous in the future.

Grandma is a family.

Don't worry about so much

The groom is here!

They didn't even prepare new clothes for the wedding.

After Zhaodi married into the family...

Come back and visit your mother often

Mother, I know

Come on up, I'll carry you out.

Where is the wedding car, sir?

I forgot to borrow from Lao San.

How could you forget something like this?

It's too late to borrow now.

The car from Zhuangzi is not in the village.

How can so many people get there?

Let's walk over there.

It's not that far.

How far

one hour

Give me

father

Our car stood out like a flower in the convoy.

That's because your father is successful.

The second son forgot to borrow the car.

Serves you right for walking.

Oh no, I can't take it anymore.

How far has Dad gone?

I didn't even complain of being tired.

Go find your third uncle

I'll hire a car for you, Yan is fine.

Uncle, my dad can't walk anymore.

Uncle Zhao

There's enough room in the car

Let Uncle come up.

Come on up and then continue walking.

I'm afraid I'll really have to carry you to your wedding.

Boss, your body is too weak.

Your dad used to be able to walk better than you.

Mother, please say less.

No wonder the family hasn't had any more children in recent years.

I think it's because you're not good enough.

Um

There are still unmarried children in the mother's carriage.

Husband and wife bowing to each other

It's really crowded with so many people.

Haha, Master Zhao

Please come inside and sit down.

You must have had a long journey, haha.

This is Zhao Die's wealthy third uncle.

I heard he even passed the preliminary imperial examination.

Zhao's parents' family is really something else.

This time our family

Haha, he really married a golden wife!

Master Zhao and Scholar Zhao

Several people quickly take the head table

Hahaha

Master Zhao passed the imperial examination at a young age.

His future is limitless!

Hahaha

Thanks for your kind words

Hahaha

Whose family is getting married today?

Third brother, you've really stolen the show today!

If you like it, you can go next time.

I desperately want some peace and quiet.

Head of household

The Lin family

I have a feeling he's not someone to be trifled with.

don't want

You'll know later that we're not that close to the third brother.

They quieted down.

I think they can't even afford to host a banquet.

There were hardly any pieces of meat.

The whole signed thin sheet is a sham.

The second child is really...

Why did they choose such a family for Zhao Di?

Big Tree, study hard!

When you come back, we'll throw you a banquet.

Brothers, wait for me to come back, we'll drink together then.

Big Tree came back to bring gifts for his mother

I want pretty clothes

And jewelry

Eldest sister

Will you buy me beautiful clothes and jewelry when we go to the capital?

Buy whatever you like, pick whatever you like.

Do you buy it for milk?

What did Grandma say?

I don't remember

Master, I've finished writing.

Why are these questions for the lowest level of scholar exams so much harder than those for the highest level of student exams?

Dad, why are you so listless?

Daughter

Father might really fail to pass the imperial examination to become a scholar.

This first simulation was so difficult for me.

It's actually a good thing if you don't know how the first time.

It's not necessarily a good thing if it doesn't happen.

Now we're wrong.

It's better than getting it wrong once you're in the exam room, right?

Fill in the gaps in your knowledge.

Practice a few more times

Simulate it several times

When the real exam comes

You've already gone through it once.

When you took the imperial examination

At first, I was also quite overwhelmed by the questions.

Didn't she still pass the exam?

Yes, daughter.

Thank goodness you reminded Dad

Big Pillar Two Pillars

All of you, come out here!

Your sister cried for ages and nobody cared; the pigs weren't fed.

The vegetable garden was not hoeed

Zhao Di got married.

Don't you know someone is missing from the house?

Too busy

Let Sanzhuzi come back and do it.

I'll get to work as soon as he gets back.

If you don't want to do it, then get out.

I'll get married and live my own life from now on.

daughter

Are you sure you want to separate me from this group?

elder brother

Will our parents really not let us go back?

They wouldn't be willing to part with it.

Actually, my parents are quite tired too.

They chose it themselves.

They insisted on throwing all their money and effort at Sanzhuzi.

Remember, the first thing you must do after you get married is to divide the family property.

Otherwise, when they get old...

Three pillars can't be raised.

Whoever obeys will be devoured.

Brother, I'll listen to you.

After I get married, I will immediately separate from the family.

Sanzhuzi's parents love him so much

Let Sanzhuzi take care of them in their old age.

That's more like it.

Not completely stupid after all.

Mother went to chop firewood

You two stay home and look after your younger sister.

I'll take you back when your mother comes back.

The second child needs to pee.

Could you please keep an eye on things?

Spring is in full bloom

Big Tree Xiao Lei

Look at this scene.

What insights did you gain?

Confucius flowers bloom in spring and wither in autumn

It's not like this every year.

The students also thought the hill behind Laomuzhu Village was more beautiful.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

That's not wrong.

Since that's the case

Taking spring scenery as the theme

Each one

Here we go again.

outside the grass

Didn't we say we arrived early?

Why is it all full?

Um

My family used to live in Fucheng.

I've never stayed in a guesthouse before.

Master, your experience is practically nonexistent!

Why don't you come over to my place and squeeze in?

No, I have an exam soon!

You must eat well and sleep well

Don't bother looking for an inn.

Go check if there are any unregistered taxis near the Gongyuan (examination hall).

It's convenient to take the exam if it's close by.

My daughter has rented a house.

How far is it from the exam venue?

I walked that distance myself.

There's also a vegetable market at the back gate.

It's also convenient for you to buy things.

I checked each room in the house and they are habitable.

Uncle Zhao had already walked around the area.

Dad is reliable.

Of course, your dad has seen the world now.

Hahaha

Dad's not bad, is he?

Did you see that?

This house is close to the examination hall.

There's also a vegetable market at the back gate.

It's convenient for us to live here.

Exams won't be delayed

The room is a bit small.

Waiting for Xiaoyu to get married

I'm afraid there's nowhere to put the dowry.

Are houses in the prefectural city really that scarce?

The area around the examination hall is already expensive.

Each scientific expedition

Students from other places come

The house was quickly rented out.

The price can be increased if you only rent one exam room.

What if we buy it?

We're not buying a house to settle down in Fucheng.

Dad, didn't you say you'd accompany Brother Lei to continue taking the exam?

It depends on whether I pass the exam or not.

Uncle Zhao

If I want to continue studying in the future

The prefectural city is indeed more convenient than the county town.

You all want to settle down outside.

The family doesn't want it anymore.

Madam and Miss

Is it to rent a courtyard or look at a shop?

I'd like to ask if there are any houses for sale near the Imperial Examination Hall.

Good houses are snapped up as soon as they come on the market.

Especially near the examination hall

Scholars, wealthy families, and merchants all kept an eye on it.

You can't buy it even if you have money

It's not that you can't buy it

It's not up to ordinary people.

A plaque was hung on a two-courtyard house today.

Just opened the door this morning

Someone paid a deposit at noon.

What if it's a little off-center?

Cheaper if you're a little off the beaten path

It's inconvenient to travel to and from the Gongpengchang (tribute hall).

I really want to take the exam

Delayed for a day on the road

The losses could be substantial.

The house is habitable

It can be rented out

No wonder everyone's scrambling for it

Don't buy it just because it's valuable.

The family also owns a farm shop and a workshop.

I'll just take a look first.

If you really want to buy, you need to figure out the costs and benefits.

Slow down, two people

Welcome to visit again!

Where did you go? Lei and I have been looking for you for ages.

I went to see the houses in the prefectural city.

You don't really want to buy it, do you?

Buy now!

But if you continue to take the exam in the future...

I'll definitely come back to the prefectural city.

Every time I rent a place, I end up wasting my money.

The girl is thinking long-term

When buying a house, you need to consider the location, property rights, and surrounding environment.

Don't just look at the surface

I know, so I'll write it down first.

We'll choose slowly after the exams are over.

That's right.

It's not too late to buy it when we really need it.

Dad, this place is nice.

How much money per month

20 taels

quack quack

You need to rent for at least two months.

I paid 40 directly.

40 taels for two months

The rented place is close to the examination hall and quiet.

We need a three-bedroom apartment.

You're really good at comforting yourself.

Why

such a small courtyard

He could earn 40 taels of silver just by preparing for the exam for two months.

Houses in the prefectural city are valuable.

Waaaaah

The students at the inn discussed many topics today.

I've written it down.

I'll let you practice tomorrow.

Master, you've been away all day and you're still thinking of giving us extra questions.

Dad, take a look.

They're even more concerned than you, the test taker.

I haven't tried hard enough

My hand is almost worn out from writing.

Hang in there and try to get it done in one go.

become

I'm determined to win this over, scholar.

From now on, we'll each do our own thing.

After you finish your own part

The rest can be ignored.

How much should I say first?

Chop firewood every three days

Two bundles per person

Crops in vegetable gardens

You brothers should also share the burden.

I won't do it.

That's still considered a lot.

If you can't finish, call Sanzhuzi back.

family meal

Why is he the only one who studies?

We worked ourselves to the bone

He is your younger brother.

Unfortunately, the three pillars are disappointing.

Do you, sir, really think Sanzhuzi has a chance?

Even if there's no hope, we have to attack.

The eldest brother's family and the third brother's family

The worst are all students who have completed the preliminary examinations.

Sanzhuzi, you have to pass this exam no matter what!

Otherwise, all the money spent over the years would have been wasted.

It's all a joke.

That pillar's marriage

I'll go visit my in-laws tomorrow.

Quickly become Kun

So urgent

There is a shortage of people at home

No one was willing to fill in for the job that needed to be filled.

The little girl has no one to take care of her.

The new bride enters the house

It's just right to take these over.

Xiaoyu, your dad won't be able to sleep again tonight.

Make some calming tea for Dad and Brother Lei.

Don't stay up tonight.

The people at the Daughter's Inn just spout off articles.

The closed mouth is an allusion

Why does Dad feel like this?

The title of "Tong Sheng" (a student who passed the imperial examination at the lowest level) was obtained by sheer luck.

They had indeed studied for many years.

You were frightened by them

Some people speak quickly

This does not mean the article is good.

Studying also depends on talent.

How many years did your second uncle's son, Sanzhu, study?

Can't recognize all the characters

The article was even more difficult to read.

That child really wasn't very promising.

Dad, don't compare yourself to others in how many years you've studied.

What you need to do now is to

Make use of your own abilities

I won't starve if I fail the exam.

Our family can afford the next time.

Treat this as a learning experience

On the contrary, it is easier to do well on the test.

Listen to your daughter

Master

The people taking the county-level imperial examination are even more frightening than those taking the county-level examination.

This place is where all the successful candidates in the imperial examinations over the years have gathered.

Those who made it this far

There were hardly any weaklings to begin with.

Three sessions of the scholar

Three days each time

After that, the Juren and Jinshi

layer by layer

Fewer and fewer will remain.

Dad, Lei, stay calm.

good

Waiting for Dad to come out

It's so thin, yet it can still hide a piece of paper.

My daughter worked so hard to make it

Where did this chicken come from? Get out of here!

ah

Uncle Zhao, I'm going that way.

Go ahead, see you at the entrance in three days.

No way!

Uh-huh

It really is stinky.

They couldn't even survive in this kind of place.

Why bother taking the imperial examination to become a scholar?

Wow

Lei Zi, what are you doing here?

You insist on supporting your uncle in spirit.

I want to buy homebody

The better the location, the better.

If there's a suitable shop, that's fine too.

girl

Good shops in the prefectural city were snapped up by wealthy households as soon as they became available.

There were no houses near the examination hall.

All I have is a two-courtyard house in Haixiang.

Viewing houses

In the county town, you can even pick and choose if you have silver.

Even with money, it's hard to buy things in this prefectural city.

The harder it is to buy, the more valuable it is.

The master lost money in business

They just handed me the keys yesterday.

If it weren't for the urgent need for money

This kind of house is not easily sold.

Good location

The yard is enough.

Buy if you like it

Write Xiaoyu's name

I'll buy another set for Pear Blossom later.

Mom is the best, hahaha

When you come to the prefectural city in the future

Finally, I don't have to look for a place to stay anymore.

Light rain

This set of crabapple blossoms is beautiful.

It's just right to wear for a wedding

It would definitely look good on the older sister.

It is really beautiful.

How much is this set?

Ah, 820 taels

Stay

Also take a look at bracelets and necklaces.

Xiaoyu got married

None of them can be missing

Are there no two stones with similar colors and quality?

I want to make a pair of rings.

These are the only ones that weren't inlaid.

We'll look for it later.

I want to look beautiful on my wedding day, sister!

Pick one if you like it

Choose several sets

Does Xiaoyu's mom look good in this?

Looks good, got it

Jewelry and clothes are almost done.

All that's left is the wedding dress

After Xiao Lei finishes his exam

Pick with him

My goodness, this isn't an exam!

It's clearly like being in jail.

Am I marinated enough?

How did Lei Zi do on the exam?

It's alright

Where is Uncle Zhao?

I'm alright.

Uncle, should I walk back?

Hey, you can rent a car too.

You can't bring money to the exam.

Father and brother-in-law

Hurry up and get on, it'll get congested if people come out.

Lei Zi doesn't sit

Why

He drew a bad number.

I spent three days near the outhouse.

I'm afraid it will fumigate you.

My brother-in-law eats and sleeps next to the outhouse.

I lay in bed for three whole days

After three days of exhaustion, why bother walking?

We're all one family

Who dislikes you?

Auntie, I can hardly stand it anymore.

Dad rented a car for Brother Lei

Don't actually let him walk back.

become

This money must be spent.

Are the masks I made any good?

It's easy to use, but it doesn't keep up with the pressure over time.

I'll prepare a few more for you next time.

Light rain

Do you think I'll get a draw number again in the next round?

Haha, how can you be unlucky twice in a row? Don't worry.

After finishing eating, rewrite the answers from the first question from memory.

Master, we've only just come out!

If Xiao Yu and Xiao Lei really pass the imperial examination and become scholars...

Will I have to come to the prefectural city to study in the future?

Do you really want to continue taking the exam?

Probably

Then you should follow along too.

Our family will live separately from now on.

Why do we have to separate?

We already have houses in Fucheng.

The family business was handed over to the steward.

We really need to move our whole family here.

The family has always lived together

We're looking for a son-in-law to live with us.

Isn't it all so we won't separate?

Uncle Zhao, my number is here.

What's normal is finally normal.

I told you so

No one is unlucky twice.

Strange, where is my account?

No way!

I just finished laughing at Lei Zi last night.

You really shouldn't talk about people behind their backs.

It's only three days.

Lei Zi can endure

I, Zhao Dashu, can also endure it.

What are you doing to me?

Okay, okay

I don't want to learn from this kind of experience book at all.

Number cannot be changed

Uncle, take the exam with peace of mind.

I'm going now.

Let's go

Brother, I'm right next door.

Luckily, you're not as close to the toilet as I am.

You're really good at comforting people.

Big sister, this place is so beautiful.

After Dad and the others finish their exams, the next one will be held.

Let's play a little longer.

cough cough

It's stinky.

It's really bad if you can't finish all the questions.

Move aside

I'm not taking the exam.

I can't, I really can't!

Go outside and cry, don't disturb the exam room.

There are only a few lines left.

Don't be too late

It almost cost me my life.

Uncle, let me help you pack.

Lei Zi almost killed Uncle in this fight.

I almost didn't finish writing the last point.

This year's questions were too difficult.

I still have two questions I haven't finished answering.

There were two questions I didn't even understand.

You also find it difficult

Well, at least I've finished writing it all.

I checked it twice.

Dad here

Dad, have you not slept for 3 days?

What happened to the head of the household? He's gotten himself into this mess.

go home

Let me take a shower first.

Walk, take a bath, eat, sleep

Don't train too hard tomorrow.

Take good care of your mental health

The third match was even more difficult.

Daughter

Why do Dad feel his legs are a little weak?

If it doesn't work, then we won't take the exam.

That's enough for those who have passed the preliminary examination.

It's not worth risking your life.

Your dad can still scare him back.

Uncle

Stick to this last game

This question

Oh, that's it.

Yeah, it's so hard to cry.

Bet on it

Father sees you like this

You did well on the exam.

They don't even know who I am!

Zhao Xiaoyu's biological father

Dad is awesome.

Master, you are amazing, truly amazing!

What's causing such agitation?

They correctly predicted the last and most difficult question.

You guessed right!

It was revised several times more than mine.

When I saw the question

I almost burst out laughing.

This is the first time in my life I've known what it means to write with divine inspiration.

The students also felt this was the best.

well

But that's the end of the matter.

After returning to the village, no one is allowed to say that they predicted the exam questions correctly.

You can't mention it even if your own brother asks.

Spreading this out will do neither of us any good.

We understand that whether we pass or fail is up to us to take the exam.

Master, we will send someone to bring your family back.

Please don't bother with us.

Let's go straight to the academy.

But your rankings

We'll see the list ourselves.

You also need to hurry up and pass the imperial examination.

We can't just look after ourselves.

Alright, let's have a good drink tonight, the three of us!

yes

Haha, Uncle Zhao is going to become a scholar!

Today's ordinary people

I want to become a scholar.

The head of the household, stop jumping!

Your pants are practically falling off your waistband.

Today's ordinary people...

I'm so happy!

Mother, if he drinks like this again...

Just give him a bowl of calming soup

This method is good.

Another pot

The girl has finally arrived!

It didn't work last time

Later, the two new disciplines

You came to see it before making the decision.

I asked the chef to hurry up and finish it.

I just finished my shift last night.

If the hard work of getting rid of the ring is slightly loose

Can it be adjusted today?

It left room for maneuver

Try the size first

Once it's suitable, then carefully polish the inside.

Didn't they say last time they didn't find a suitable one?

If you don't find one, keep looking.

Who said there wasn't one that day?

There will be none from now on.

Let me see the size.

dislike

I just didn't expect to like you.

You've already decided on mine too.

I originally wanted a pair

Make two for yourself

Wear them alternately.

The list hasn't been released yet.

I want to wait until I pass the exam.

I'll give you something in a proper way.

Let people know I can do it too.

What else?

Can others see it?

Can I erase the things you did for me?

Wedding dress and jewelry

The house I will live in later

You're all ready.

I'm afraid that on my wedding day...

I still stand before you empty-handed.

Your wife is in the fish.

Tian Ce is where you accompanied me to remember.

I'm too busy to keep going back to my hometown.

When were you ever absent?

You've forgotten all of this.

I only remember who paid the money.

I haven't forgotten you, and I want to do it someday.

what would you like

I can also give freely

I'm waiting.

But this is the gift I wanted to give you today.

You don't even dare to say you like someone openly.

I've been preparing to memorize this for so long, and I'm still feeling sad.

I like

I didn't dare touch the ones I liked just now.

I'm afraid I'll be too happy and lose my composure.

Why do you care about how happy you are?

They're interfering too much.

Please relax a little more

He also needs to go to the fields on weekdays.

The inner ring of the women's ring should also be rounded.

Don't hurt your hands

I've noted whether or not to have it engraved.

I want to carve side by side

Are you willing?

Why didn't you carve my name on it?

I remember your name.

I want to see these two words all the time.

Remind yourself not to overexert yourself.

Don't always hide behind you.

Then both of them are countered.

When I'm stubborn

You also reminded me

People will talk about you later.

Don't feel sorry for me first.

The person I chose

I know it myself

Things that will make you unhappy in the future

I won't try to brush it off with some excuse like "it's for your own good."

Let's talk face to face.

This is much more practical than whether or not you'll pass the exam.

Sister, you two even have the same thing on your hands.

Dad will be jealous when he sees this.

Hurry up, your father is waiting to take the teacher to school.

Master, just say what you need.

Don't wrong yourself at the academy

You can wait patiently for the results.

If I can ask for leave

I'll go find you the day the results are released.

Master, take care.

Suddenly there's no one around to urge me to study every day.

It's still so empty.

Let's go, Dad, pick out my wedding dress today.

For this important

Eldest sister, I want to choose my own wedding dress when I get married in the future.

ah

How old are you?

All they talk about is marriage.

Hahaha

What are you thinking about with that furrowed brow?

Thinking of men

The head of the household should spit it out quickly.

Dad opened his mouth

Dad, you almost scared me to death!

You still blame me

What did she just say about wanting a man?

You brat!

Dad is choking, not me.

Why did you hit me?

Several people came to see the wedding dress.

Our newly arrived sets

It was a perfect couple, a man and a woman.

Which daughter do you like?

What you like

I like them all.

The groom really knows how to love his wife.

We'll talk about it when we get home.

Speaking of which man I was thinking about today, who exactly am I thinking about?

I wasn't thinking about men.

I watched my older sister and brother-in-law grow up together.

I also want to raise one to grow up with.

Okay, okay, don't get angry.

Pear Blossom, do you have someone you want to take home?

Yes, there's a rich kid named Laifu from Grandpa Qian's family.

God, just strike me down!

snort

What do you like about him?

Good-looking

Good temper

He smiles every time he sees me.

He also played with me

Very patient

They stuffed all the delicious food into my pockets.

It's all Dad's fault

What does this have to do with me?

If it weren't for you leading the Qian family to earn so much money

They are still poor

Maybe Brother Laifu will be willing to come to our house.

I made money and ended up committing a crime.

Pear Blossom, listen to your father.

There are plenty of good men in the world

Money and happiness are not suitable for you

Why is it certain that he likes me?

I'm so beautiful

Dad's afraid you won't be able to handle him.

gentle on the surface

But each one of them is more cunning than the last.

Our girl actually likes this kind of reserved and cunning type.

Yes, that's what you call sly and wicked.

Even a hundred pear blossoms couldn't beat him.

Dad, you look down on me

You're still young, there's no rush.

I'll keep an eye out for you from now on.

Let's see what kind of person he really is, shall we?

Oh well

What to do about my daughter?

That kid from the Qian family is full of bad intentions.

He is cunning towards outsiders.

Can protect one's own people

They also know how to be grateful.

They haven't treated our family badly these past few years.

But Pear Blossom couldn't control him.

What if he's willing to give up the pear blossom mole?

If he really had designs on such a young girl

That's incredibly shameless.

How can someone like this still get married?

Why can't I be a father?

When you got engaged to me

I'm not that old either.

Qian Jiazhen took a liking to Lihua

Are you suggesting we force their only son to marry into the family?

It's probably difficult for the Qian family to have only one child.

It's too early to think about these things now.

First, people also appreciate pear blossoms.

Whether to marry or recruit later is negotiable.

A big one is about to get married

The young girl started eyeing men

What terrible things have I done?

Lei Zi

Do you want to continue your studies in the future?

I wish you could study for my sake.

Let Xiaoyu separate from you

Then I don't have to read it.

I read books by myself

It is also acceptable to write letters to the Master for advice.

you

I want to be successful.

But I didn't intend to exchange the whole family for this.

I'll go to the temple tomorrow to pick an auspicious day.

You two should get married.

Listen to Uncle Zhao

These people are crazy!

If you keep squeezing me, I'll turn into a meat patty.

At his age, he still tries to be at the forefront.

Not afraid of being stepped on.

Dad thinks he can win.

Let him squeeze.

Back off, all back off

Lei Zi, you have good eyesight.

First, help your uncle find

Uncle, you have me

Your name is there

Don't be mistaken.

Is it the same name?

That's right, it's Uncle Zhao.

I won! I won!

I'm a scholar now.

Hahaha

Let me out

I want to tell my wife and daughter

I won too.

How is Lei Zi?

Both Uncle Zhao and I won!

Hahaha

Xiao Lei

Hahaha

Congratulations, sir, on passing the imperial examination!

Hahaha

Two ounces each

Good news! Uncle Zhao and Master Zhao have passed the imperial examination and become scholars.

Hard work, Brother Cha

The newest move-in was surprisingly a scholar.

Give everyone candy

Everyone share in the joy

Master Xiao Lei passed the imperial examination and became a scholar.

Two scholars emerged from one family in one day

So young and already a scholar

I don't know if they're engaged yet.

Once you've received the wedding candies, just let them go.

The children were tired too.

Going back to the village tomorrow

I need to take this back myself.

Haha, look how anxious you are!

Lei Zi will have to come to the prefectural city to study in the future.

What are you two going to do?

It's okay if you don't come.

I wrote to the Master to ask for his advice.

If being a troublemaker can get you into the academy, then you can get into the academy.

What good are letters?

Daughter, what do you think?

Dad, how about we move the whole family to the prefectural city?

Move the city

Well, our family can't be trapped in the village forever.

Lei Zige wants to study

I don't want to be separated from my parents.

Zhufucheng in recent years

No matter where I go from now on

Our whole family walked together.

My daughter is reluctant to part with her father.

Really moved to the prefectural city

What about the family's farm, shops, and workshops?

Dad, we have so many stewards

Not raising useless people

But I'm unfamiliar with this place.

I don't even have anyone to drink with.

So you're willing to leave me alone in the prefectural city?

No relatives or friends

all alone

Unsuccessful

Our class dad will be with you.

Could we bring the Qian family along as well?

Shut up and go back to the village. Dare to mention a man?

I'll break your legs!

This time when I go back

The scholar's banquet must be held in a grand manner.

Let's go back to the village first so you can show off enough.

Is it the third son who's back?

Coming back in the middle of the night

Maybe I didn't pass the exam.

Afraid of losing face during the day

What is this writing?

Go back and rewrite

He's a good-for-nothing.

Why are you taking it out on others?

It took so long to get back

Could he really be on the list?

Shunzi, what are you doing blocking my door?

Come in and eat

Don't eat yet, tell me the truth.

How did you do on the exam?

I won

Haha, Mom!

I thought you were just making a brief appearance in the prefectural city.

Don't you even know who my brother is? It's not just me...

Xiao Lei also won.

My father and I were both scholars.

There's nothing I can't do.

Listen carefully.

He became a rich scholar.

Xiao Lei also won.

Our village produced two scholars in one day.

Is it really that easy to become a scholar?

Both of them were correct.

Easy exam my ass

Several thousand students were selected from among all the candidates in the prefecture.

Competing for dozens of spots

That big tree is really something else.

Generally speaking

Your mouth is practically agape!

Hahaha

Eldest brother and second sister-in-law

The third child is back!

How did you do on the exam?

It's okay, this time not.

Passed the exam

What did you say?

You won!

Why is my second sister-in-law so agitated?

You really won!

Manaka

This must be a dream.

I don't like this dream.

Congratulations, Uncle San!

Where is Xiao Lei?

About ten people were also selected.

Excellent grades

By the way, big brother

I didn't know that scholars were ranked before.

What was your ranking back then?

48

How much in total?

50

If back then

My son, my big tree

Your mother almost didn't see you again.

Mom, why have you gotten so thin?

Who bullied you?

No one dares to bully Mother

One day after you left, she suddenly fainted.

Fortunately, Madam Huang helped her quickly.

What the doctor said

Saying I'm getting old

The food was so good

Eating well can still cause illness

The doctor said it's not that you can't eat any meat at all.

You can't stuff large chunks of fatty meat into your mouth every day.

My mother used to have meat at every meal.

You should eat a full meal before going to bed at night.

It's either pig's trotters or roast chicken.

You can eat quite a lot of snacks in a day.

Mom, you even ate pig's trotters before going to bed.

How can you sleep when you're hungry?

You think it's absurd too, right?

That doctor must be jealous of my good life.

What should the doctor tell you to eat?

Whole grains, cabbage, radish, and green vegetables

They won't let me eat fatty meat.

They wouldn't let me touch the snacks.

They won't even let me put candy in my pocket.

Your older brothers even locked up all my pastries.

Isn't this going to kill me?

The old lady doctor said

It's for your own good

Who exactly bought you?

Why do I always speak up for them?

Is a mother's life more important or food?

I

Eat as the doctor prescribed.

I'm really worried

I'll take you to see a doctor again.

For decades, people wanted to eat but couldn't.

Now we have something to eat.

You won't let me eat

I'm just not destined to enjoy happiness in this life.

Your eldest and second eldest brothers are unfilial.

I've locked up all my snacks and meat.

Mother, doesn't your conscience hurt when you say that?

Who carried you to the car when you fainted?

Who takes care of you when you see a doctor?

They've brought the food right to your mouth.

I've gone this far with my second brother.

You wiped it all away with just one word: unfilial.

What exactly do you want from us?

Yeah, I just want to eat something good.

If you keep making a fuss

I'll go and ask my uncle to come and talk to you about it.

Don't look for your uncle.

Big Tree, take your mother to see a few more doctors.

It's okay, but if several doctors say you can't eat it...

Mother, you have to give up your diet.

Maybe I fainted from hunger.

You eat six or seven meals a day

Can faint from hunger

My son, you've really passed the imperial examination!

I said it before, and it really came true.

I'm the smartest in our family.

You still think I'm shameless?

Looking at it now, it's really true.

Your father and I should have raised you back then.

We misjudged it.

So, are you going to hold a banquet or not?

The display must be large.

I'm almost exhausted lately.

It would be a shame not to have some fun!

Good mother will definitely go to the banquet.

Now is not the time for the family to be upset.

What else can we do?

The third brother and Xiao Lei both became scholars in a few years.

What does this mean?

This shows that their teacher was very capable.

Our son can't keep reading like that.

We need to find a way to get the teacher to teach us.

I begged them, but they refused.

Then kneel down and beg.

What

With children

Go together as a family

He wouldn't agree.

We won't get up.

For the two children

Really want to throw all your face on the ground

We can't wait any longer.

Even when he was a student at the Third Middle School, someone was keeping an eye on the teacher.

Now, the third brother and Xiao Lei have both become scholars.

The threshold of the Master's house would be worn down by footsteps.

But they were willing to teach our son before.

Then beg, if all else fails, beg on your knees.

For the sake of the children

How much is a face worth?

I'm so ashamed of my old face.

We also need to ask for two spots for our two children.

Second brother, what do you say?

If we hadn't dropped out of school back then

Will we be on the list this time?

I don't think so.

My uncle studied for almost 10 years back then.

Where do we read it?

Our teacher back then wasn't even a student.

Let's see what Sanzhuzi will become after studying for several years.

What if I studied with my third uncle?

How many times have I begged?

Did the person agree?

Brother, this is all our family has to offer.

To support his third brother

hair turned white

My back is bent.

Then break the bones into pieces and sell them.

That was their own choice.

Xiao Lei is a scholar at such a young age

She's also good-looking.

So what if we're engaged?

Aren't they married yet?

Why hasn't my son come back, Big Tree?

The master went directly to the prefectural academy.

There will be an exam next February.

Time is of the essence and there is no time to waste.

When are we going back?

Do you want to go back?

I sent someone to escort him.

Food and daily necessities for drivers and passengers on the road

I've arranged everything.

I heard that you and Lei Zi both won.

My son's education wasn't in vain after all.

How can you say that?

It's because of the good teaching of the Master.

All these years for us

He was truly heartbroken.

You are all good children.

Nothing of value

You and Lei Zi shouldn't be disgusted.

What's there to complain about? The stitching is even better than in a tailor shop in the county town.

I'll wear it tomorrow

Ha ha

Prepare 8-10 vehicles

If there aren't enough horse-drawn carriages, use mule carts.

Don't forget anything.

Arrange several escorts

All ten were chosen for their robust and reliable strength.

We must ensure the person arrives safely in the prefectural city.

father

Things are getting more and more thorough these days.

That goes without saying.

Your father is now a scholar.

Give the Master's family another 200 taels

The teacher will have to spend money to study and retake exams in the future.

This affection must not be severed.

Just the right amount

Add a few more people to go with us.

Clean up our house in Haier Lane.

I'll be living here for four or five years.

Cannot settle

Change it however you want

The most important thing is to live comfortably.

What's wrong? I'm not feeling well.

I feel uncomfortable

Did the big beads upset you again?

I went to find him.

It wasn't that his third brother and Xiao Lei both passed the imperial examination at the county level.

The third child has only been in school for a few years.

Not only did I win

Xiao Lei also did very well on the exam.

Do the three pillars of the family still recite?

How can we stop now that we've attacked so far?

I still want to send him to the county town next year.

Get a better teacher

How much silver would that cost in the county town?

No matter how difficult it is, we must provide it.

The third brother and Xiao Lei were taught by famous teachers, weren't they?

Our current teacher is no good.

We can't delay the child any longer.

How many more years can we hold on?

Look at yourself.

My older brother is older than you

You look much older than him.

Back bent, hair turned white

Sanzhuzi just hasn't figured it out yet.

Zhao Di got married.

The eldest brother refused to do it.

The second child also followed suit.

There was a baby in her arms.

Sanzhuzi has had so many years of opportunities to study

When have you ever cared about us?

Maybe we shouldn't read it anymore.

If you can't beat them, you can't beat them.

To prove this point

We're both almost dead from exhaustion.

As the head of the household, I'm not afraid of hardship.

I think our family

One, two, three

There's no hope left.

If the head of the household really wants to stop, then they should stop now.

I'm afraid I'll end up losing all the money.

People are worn out.

I got nothing.

These years have truly stopped the practice of providing paper, ink, food, and clothing.

How much have we thrown at him?

Now, parking in front of it won't be a complete waste of space.

Can be thrown away for another ten years

What if we still get nothing?

Let me think about it.

My own son became a scholar.

It's a pity the relationship ended so early.

Why are you home so late today?

Xiao Ping, are you crazy?

It's all your fault, if it weren't for you.

Back then, they were able to drive Xiao Lei out.

You yourself have no guts to protect your son

Now it's my fault.

That's enough, Xiao Lei has passed the county-level imperial examination.

The village is all

Our family is stupid.

It really worked!

No matter how much he severs ties with you, he's still your son.

He and his two younger brothers are still blood brothers, right?

Mother, you still expect him to help us?

We're lucky he didn't retaliate.

He dares to say he's now a scholar.

Even more important is to protect one's reputation

The more successful he becomes, the more afraid he is of being called unfilial.

I went to find the clan chief.

Let the clan step in

He might not want to be a live-in son-in-law anymore.

As long as he comes back

We still have a chance

Clan Chief Xiao Lei was hit

This time he'll definitely be willing to go back to the Xiao family.

Winning has nothing to do with you.

He's my own son.

A letter of severance of kinship is just a few fingerprints.

Just tear it up.

Get out of here!

But he is now a scholar.

Glory should belong to our Xiao family.

Chieftain, you should try to persuade him.

Of all virtues, filial piety is the most important.

The person is someone you don't want.

They've made something of themselves now.

You want to acknowledge it back.

Do you really think everyone in the world is a fool?

The clan chief's family never hold grudges overnight.

I refuse to believe he can truly disown his father for life.

I refuse to believe that shameless nagging will...

You can't even get a biological son back.

father

If it drags on any longer

Xiao Leizhen and Zhao Xiaoyu got married

It was completely too late.

He married Zhao Xiaoyu, who also bears the surname Xiao.

But he really did become successful later on.

What if it gets listed in Zhao Ya's family genealogy?

That glory can still be considered part of the Xiao family.

What can I do?

That brat absolutely refuses to come back.

He was just a student before.

Now he's a scholar.

Perhaps he has seen the sights of the prefectural city.

My thinking has changed.

Should we go find him again?

Wait a little longer

Still waiting

I want him to come back and beg for help himself.

That way the clan can control him in the future.

But the Zhao family treated him so well.

If he can even abandon the Zhao family so easily...

The Xiao clan will be lost in the future as well.

It's been a long time since I went back to see your maternal grandparents.

Today our whole family went back together.

I'll tell Grandpa about your wedding date later.

Make him happy

Listen to Auntie

Grandpa was also told about his father's banquet after passing the imperial examination.

The good news hasn't reached the village yet.

Don't make a fuss yet.

Let's talk about it once we actually get our hands on it.

I've already seen the rankings.

Can there still be fakes?

Put your smugness away for a moment.

father

Hey, you're back from the prefectural city! How did it go? Did you pass the exam?

The old man won

We both won.

Uncle was hit by all of them

How did you even get your brain working like that?

Going to school at such an old age

You actually read it as if you were a scholar.

General

That is, just a little bit smarter than the average person.

snort

My kids won't start learning for much longer than you.

Now he can't even express the meaning of the article properly.

Do you think their brains are filled with some kind of mush?

Father-in-law, don't worry.

Studying really depends on talent.

People like me and Lei Zi who are naturally intelligent

There are few people who are particularly good at studying.

Dad, keep bragging.

You've practically forced the roof open!

Uncle, let's have a chat.

What does Dad talk about?

You're so smart

Of course, continue reading.

Didn't your dad want someone in the family to become an official?

I think we have to rely on you.

Dad, I'm too old to study anymore.

What an old age

Didn't you say there were old men with white hair in the exam hall?

They can take the exam

Why can't you?

I really don't want to take the imperial examination to become a scholar.

With Xiao Lei by your side

Father-in-law and son-in-law take the exam together

What a wonderful story!

Father, I was really lucky to pass the imperial examination.

Enough with the scholar

This life is enough.

Why

Light rain

Your grandpa is terrifying.

Who told you to brag about being a genius?

I'm naturally smart

Dad needs to keep a low profile from now on.

People really thought you could pass the imperial examination and become a scholar.

Your clan might force you to continue studying.

From now on, we'll all say we're too old.

Limited memory

The scholar is the limit.

That's a safe bet.

Ah, the messenger has arrived with good news!

Congratulations, Scholar Zhao!

Congratulations, Scholar Xiao!

good

Everyone shared in the joy

Slow down, there's always something to do.

The day after tomorrow, a banquet will be held.

This time we must hold a grand event!

Hosting a banquet

First, slaughter 15 pigs, 300 chickens, and 200 ducks.

Rice, noodles, eggs, vegetables

All prepared for the clan

How many people would need to eat that?

Anyone who can make it can eat.

If you don't have enough tables and chairs, borrow some.

Hire more chefs

Swing the spatula around

become

If you're going to do it, do it in a way that the whole village will never forget for decades.

Let's talk again, you and me.

Chieftain, I have other matters to attend to.

You are now a scholar.

His future is limitless.

What I said last time

Are you really not going to consider it anymore?

Don't mention it again.

I, Xiao Lei, am Zhao Xiaoyu's husband for life.

He was also the son-in-law of the Zhao family.

Do you know that being a live-in son-in-law is something people laugh at?

It could even affect his career.

Which imperial court would favor a man who marries into the family?

This is why I can't become an official.

Then don't do it.

Who dares to ruin my wedding with Xiaoyu?

Don't blame me for turning against you later.

Chieftain, if you want to get benefits from me, then...

But don't treat me like a fool.

Can the Xiao clan defeat me now?

Light rain

Spicy stir-fried rabbit for dinner

We went into the mountains again.

Go to the prefectural city later

I'm afraid I won't have many opportunities to hunt.

I'll get you more while I can.

Thank you, brother-in-law.

Second brother, you're also going to find the teacher?

Yes, Sanzhuzi can no longer be taught by the current teachers.

If they disagree

I knelt on the ground

I won't get up

Then let's kneel together, brothers.

For the sake of the children

Losing a little face is nothing.

What are you doing?

Pack your things and head back to the prefectural city.

What about the teacher back in the prefectural city?

My son didn't come back.

He has already stayed at the Fucheng Academy

Preparing for next year's imperial examination

The master was only a scholar.

After that teacher

Will you come back to teach students?

Both Da Shu and Xiao Lei are already scholars.

My son also needs to continue his studies.

I will not teach students anymore.

Master

He really left.

Light rain

Lin Zhuang asked someone if he could get some experimental soybean seeds.

He heard that she was good-looking

Willing to pay more

You agreed.

I didn't ask you first

But haven't we actually collected more revenue in the past two years?

They are willing to pay a price

It's better than leaving it lying around.

Last year, there were two buildings and seven buildings in Putongtian.

Building 3, No. 1 Field

4 dou is real

Different local conditions

It's true.

I remember.

But I won't call him to plant all at once.

Why not just try one bag first?

The old man, who grew little grain, saw that this bag of crops was growing well.

I'm afraid they won't be willing to plant anything else the following year.

Are you afraid that good seeds will harm people?

I'm afraid people's expectations are too high.

Back then, my dad heard that changing the crop could increase the yield.

They even saved up their food to exchange for it.

Later I didn't adapt to that area.

The family survived the winter

father

Others are buying from us

A bag was scattered on the ground

What's suppressed might be a year's worth of meals.

I still haven't figured out exactly what's so good about it.

You can't use this to collect money.

Then let's clarify that we might not receive more.

A small bag will be given away for free.

Good things shouldn't be kept hidden away forever.

Will give

But we need to first observe the performance after the land exchange and seed retention.

Saying you don't guarantee

They see we're willing to send it out.

I still think we have a...

This year, Nitta has grown seedlings.

The harvest is still far away

The trees were beautiful in previous years

Cannot answer this year's questions

Dad just wants people to praise you too.

Everyone who meets him calls him a "double scholar".

It's like this company has achieved what it has today.

It was all thanks to Lei Zi and me reading those few books

You and Brother Lei know

Mother knows my efforts weren't in vain.

If you really want to be praised

I'm also waiting for the fields to speak up for me.

Don't ask me to rely on a bag of seeds I haven't even figured out how to make a living.

I'll go and give them a reply this time.

Silver not accepted

Planting is not allowed casually.

Try it with peace of mind.

The food rations for the banquet were collected only from ordinary granaries.

Leave one seed here untouched.

Please rewrite the markings clearly.

Stop being so busy and just mess around.

The number of seedlings on both sides is about the same

The on-demand service missed a few nests.

Right now, you can say you've saved your back.

Saved some labor

We can't say we're producing more grain.

This is a separate note regarding the group that is exchanging land for the No. 3 seed.

Don't mix with those testing bamboo tubes.

Let's talk about the damaged rows in the fish separately.

Record what needs to be recorded.

Not just to make up a good number

Just delete the ones you don't like.

It's hard to keep it a secret from others.

Those who have tended these fields have seen some of the harvests.

Don't force people to prosper

Don't make a fuss yet.

Keep the records of seed saving from that year.

Then I'll make another copy of today's work.

So that if one is damaged, there's nowhere to find it.

When he can really stand firm

Then think about how to get more people to plant it.

He hasn't even knelt down yet.

The person is gone.

Such a capable person was only a scholar.

I haven't moved forward even once in all these years.

Big Brother

You two are truly scholars.

Can you really finish all of this?

If the master really eats to his heart's content

These are probably not enough.

People stayed in the village

If that's not enough, you can keep killing.

How many mouths would that take?

One table and one small jar

Enough to drink

Don't drink too much and cause trouble.

Rice, flour, candy, and pastries

Continue sending to the village

This time, Cheng must make everyone remember.

Our Zhao family has produced two scholars.

The third son is hosting a banquet.

They even provide meals to strangers from other villages.

How wonderful it would be if we had that silver!

He can spend his money however he wants.

The Master also left.

What about those three pillars?

They were sent to the county town to eat and stay at the school.

The Master stared

I refuse to believe he can play every day.

There are also large pillars.

Hurry up and get married

So urgent

Xiaoyu is getting married soon.

We can't compare to the grandeur of the third brother's family.

Big Pillar got ahead of him

To avoid everyone comparing the two marriages later on.

If we can't compare, we can just hide.

Clan Chief Xiao Lei really isn't coming back.

Don't even think about it, that kid is a wolf.

Forcing things will only create enemies.

But he's such a young man and he's already a scholar.

What if I really do become a scholar in the imperial examinations?

He can even abandon his own father.

We only share the same surname as him.

When he suffered before

Who cared about him?

Why

They all put their minds to rest.

Don't ruin his marriage with Zhao Xiaoyu in the future.

It's good enough if we can maintain the bonds within the clan.

Such a promising scholar

It's a pity that he stayed with the Zhao family like this.

What a pity!

My goodness, this endless feast is probably...

Half the county's people came to feed them.

Dad, are you dressed too flashy today?

Scholar holds wedding banquet

How can we not be dignified?

Zhao Di, your cousin is ahead of you.

Hurry up and go talk to her.

Grandma Xiaoyu is busy.

If you're busy, go help.

Such good relatives, yet they don't know how to be close to them.

How did your brain get so big?

Is there anything I can help you with, Xiaoyu?

My cousin is a guest

How can I let you do work?

Let's sit and enjoy some snacks while we wait for the meal to begin.

The magistrate has arrived!

ah

Go out and greet them quickly

Congratulations, Scholar Zhao!

Your Excellency personally visited my humble abode

A glorious sight

Keep up the good work in the future

This official awaits your passing the imperial examination and becoming a scholar.

Students were terrified

I will do my best

The mourning period has also passed.

When will you two get married?

Almost there! Almost there!

The adults and their wives will definitely come to the wedding banquet.

must

Haha, two scholars have just come from our family!

My daughter's wedding is coming up soon.

Double happiness!

The uncle in charge couldn't entertain everyone by himself.

You went to help

Didn't you see it?

They just walked right in front of my face.

As if I were dead

We used to know each other.

What's the use of knowing this?

People don't want to know me anymore.

Hahaha

If it had been me who was sent to the third house by my grandparents back then...

Today is a joyous day.

Stop overthinking

I was having wild thoughts

The spot he was standing in could have been mine.

Your third uncle is so capable

Why didn't you say that before?

The county magistrate himself came to offer his congratulations.

Third Uncle is Third Uncle

We are ourselves

What you and our

How could my third uncle not be family?

Spend more time talking to Xiaoyu.

My mother-in-law isn't someone I don't want to be close to.

It's because my third uncle's family won't take the bait.

What's wrong with lowering your head?

The real benefit is when you actually get it.

The male table was accompanied by the clan elder, second uncle, and village chief.

The woman at the table, the clan elder, the village chief's wife, the eldest sister-in-law at home

I know several ladies in the county town.

Just in time to keep someone company and talk.

What about me?

The table was full

My second sister-in-law is probably staying with her relatives in the courtyard.

Even the village chief's wife can get in.

They just wouldn't let me in.

They just look down on me.

Mr. Zhao, your prospective son-in-law is extraordinary!

He passed the imperial examination at the county level after only a few years of study.

Haha, you flatter me.

This child is mainly willing to put in hard work.

Where is your teacher?

This will teach students

We'd like to meet you too.

Back to the academy in the prefectural city

To teach us

He was delayed for several years

Madam Zhao, Xiaoyu, and Scholar Xiao are a perfect match.

Please let us know when you get married.

A certain date will be set.

I will definitely send letters to all the ladies.

Oh dear, isn't this the scholar's wife from before?

It's been so many years.

It's been a long time since we last met.

Your eldest daughter is still not married.

He's not young anymore.

Which family have you set your sights on now?

Who is the son-in-law?

It's not decided yet.

Aunt felt sorry for her cousin Ruxin

I want to keep her here for a few more years.

My cousin also couldn't bear to leave her parents.

Therefore, there's no rush to get married.

Today is my father's and Xiao Lei's wedding banquet.

The most important thing is that everyone eats and drinks well.

It's said that Madam Zhao's banquet today was truly magnificent.

Half the village was filled with

It's all thanks to the villagers for giving me face.

How to cut vegetables

Ladies, please eat more!

Your cook is really good.

With Madam Zhou's residence

The chefs in the capital still can't compare.

I've tried those dishes at his house once.

I still think about it now.

Hahaha

This is the Song family.

Previously, she was asked to say a word to strangers.

These years, my face has turned bright red.

Their whole family is growing up.

This is goose meat.

This is a bear paw.

It's very expensive; a bear only has four paws.

bear paw

This is called sea cucumber.

Ginseng from the sea

And this octopus

How much money did the third brother spend on this meal today?

Thank you all for coming to support Uncle Zhao today.

Xiao Lei substitutes tea for wine

A toast to everyone!

Scholar Xiao is too kind.

Lei Zi

Come home with Dad

We won't become someone else's live-in son-in-law.

I've been wronged

Even if it means selling everything we own, your father will still support your education.

We can't sell ourselves for money!

The scholar was a man who sold himself into servitude and married into the family.

Are you sure you want to cause trouble at Uncle Zhao's wedding banquet?

Dad is just worried about you.

Feel sorry for me

After my mother died

Have you ever cared about me?

Grandparents are old

Have you ever managed this?

I went hunting in the mountains with one of my children.

Your prey was stolen

Your house was ransacked

When I was injured and about to die

Nobody cares about you

In the end, they weren't even bothered to dig a hole for me.

Just cut ties with me.

People used to say I was unlucky and would bring misfortune to my relatives.

Now I've passed the imperial examination and become a scholar.

He wants to acknowledge his son again.

Don't you still have two biological sons?

Let them support you

You can't forget the past.

Uncle Zhao is really good to you.

He just wants you to have children for the Zhao family.

Remembering both grudges and kindness

Who is good to me?

I know better than you do.

Uncle Zhao treated me like his own son.

You have no right to stir up trouble.

If I had known this day would come...

He should have been killed back then.

The third family

Has Xiaoyu set a wedding date yet?

It's scheduled for 20 days later, and it will be light rain and...

Xiao Lei's wedding day

So fast, only 20 days later!

Find someone in the prefectural city to calculate a good day

Back home, I was busy with the scholar's banquet.

So I haven't had a chance to say it yet.

Dazhuzi's wedding is not yet held.

Xiaoyu only has 20 days left.

Let's get married then.

Anyway, I can't eat much meat now.

What's the point of wedding banquets anymore?

Milk, you should take care of your health first.

Better than anything else

Third son's wife

You haven't looked old in years!

On the contrary, they get younger and younger.

She has people serving her every day.

Never lift a finger

How can one not be young?

It's not that mysterious.

Apply cucumber slices to face

Wash your face with rice water

The white membrane inside a beaten egg can also be used as a poultice.

It really works

Long-term persistence

It's better than doing nothing.

Xiaoyu knows more.

You and Zhao Di are the closest.

She was just married.

If you don't understand anything, just ask her.

A few days before the wedding

I'll have Zhaodi come back to help you with this.

Auntie went to a lot of trouble

But really not needed

Why not use it?

Aren't you two sisters who grew up together?

It's true that we grew up together.

However, I'm not actually that close to my cousin Zhaodi.

When I was a child, there were always chores to do at home.

How much time do we have to play together?

As relatives, you'll naturally become familiar with each other if you visit more often.

When it's time to move around, you'll naturally move around.

Zhao Di

Your in-laws used to urge you to get closer to Xiaoyu too.

I've said it a few more times recently.

Remember how good your in-laws are to you now.

You can be grateful

Don't let a few kind words fool you.

I'll give you everything I have in my heart.

Mother, I know

This person...

The most vulnerable to test

It's about people's hearts.

If Dad and Third Uncle continue reading

Should I go to the Prefectural Academy?

have no idea

Can we go too?

Third Uncle and Xiao Lei switched places.

The teacher only got the test so quickly.

Or should we invite Uncle Three's former tutor?

People have returned to the prefectural city.

Besides, what were the conditions your third uncle offered back then?

Can our family afford it?

He always let his father teach him.

When will I finally pass the imperial examination and become a scholar?

My dear in-laws, you are just too strong-willed.

Da Yong and Da Shu are brothers.

What's wrong with bowing your head and begging?

Mother-in-law drinking tea

A family should support and complement each other, right?

The big tree is so capable now.

According to Zhao Di

You treat her like your own daughter.

My husband and I really need to thank our in-laws.

Your mother-in-law doesn't seem like someone who's easy to please.

I'm doing fine.

But my eldest cousin

Xiaoyu is almost getting married.

When are you getting married?

You don't need to worry about my marriage.

You should really keep an eye on your snobbish relatives.

Still confused

Wash your face quickly

I'm keeping bird's nest warm in the pot for you.

Once at the Qian family

Only Madam Qian and Master Qian could regularly consume bird's nest.

Zhao Xiaoyu, however, treated it like a regular meal.

Third sister-in-law

In the future, let Xiaoyu and Lihua visit the old house more often.

Ru Xin can miss them.

Yeah

What makes him so special?

Uncle, are you still going to read it?

I'm not going to talk about it anymore, I'm already so old.

The scholar has already earned enough.

Future opportunities will be given to young people.

Your brain works so well

If you say you won't study, then you won't study.

Everyone has their own destiny.

I've really reached the end.

What about Lei Zi?

He certainly continued

His grades were always better than mine when he was younger.

It would be a shame not to continue reading.

Xiaoyu and Xiaolei are getting married soon, right?

Hahaha

Zhao Di, you were the first among your sisters to get married.

Before Xiaoyu got married

You should spend more time with her.

Her mother had many maids and mothers-in-law around her.

I have no need

I'm not asking you to do any work.

Choosing jewelry and looking at wedding dresses

And things that happen in the boudoir

As the older sister, you should be able to teach me, right?

Why have you been spending all your time with Chunmiao's kids lately?

I'm learning how to take care of children.

Why are you learning this?

When you have a baby

I'll bring it for you.

I'm not married yet.

You're even thinking about the child.

It's never a bad thing to learn early.

Light rain

A drunk person should always be personally taken home.

Mother, you've had too much to drink.

Go and rest first.

Um

It's my turn to drink now.

Try to get me drunk

I can drink a thousand cups without getting drunk

All the men at the table collapsed.

How come you're completely unharmed?

Truly invincible to a thousand cups

I didn't cheat.

It was stuffed full of cotton.

When drinking, I poured some of the liquor into my sleeve.

Let my wallet suck it in

Fully absorbed

This would take a pound or two of alcohol.

Do you think what I'm doing is wrong?

What's wrong?

It's dangerous to get drunk outside.

Neither Zhou nor

And stay awake

That's called being smart.

When Dad wakes up

Teach him this trick.

Those guys went completely crazy last night.

One after another

Who can withstand it?

Drink less in the future

Xiao Lei is smarter than you

At least know how to protect yourself

You cheated last night, kid.

You should learn too.

Well

I'll study tonight, haha.

father

Your son has come to visit you.

See clearly that your son, whom you looked down upon the most, has passed the imperial examination and become a scholar.

Less than four years

I passed all the examinations for the lowest level of education (童生) and the highest level of education (秀才).

snort

Didn't you used to say that every day?

The eldest brother is the hope of the Zhao family.

How are things now?

The most studious one in the family

It was me all along.

My older brother is currently holed up in the village copying books.

Neither of his two sons turned out to be any great success.

The second brother is even more ruthless.

Go back to your old ways

Working desperately to support the three pillars

Do you think you're harming people?

You've been lying to your brother your whole life.

Now my second brother is following your example.

Gambling with the lives of an entire family

A future that is nowhere in sight

Dad, don't worry

My mother is living a very comfortable life now.

Eat well and dress well

The whole village envies her for having such a filial son as me.

Hmph, you used to spend all your money on your older brother.

He relies on his second brother for old age.

You've got a really clever plan.

And Xiaoyu is getting married to Xiao Lei soon.

Haha, Lei Zi is now a scholar too!

He is still devoted to my daughter.

You know, I'm the one who picks the best son-in-law.

Isn't my judgment much better than yours?

After they get married, they will go to the prefectural city.

I don't see my daughter all day

My heart is probably empty.

Dad, I'm leaving.

I'll come see you again during the Chinese New Year.

The wedding banquet will be held at the farm.

The house in the village is too small

It's impossible to spread out at all

The dowry is all prepared.

66 absolutely respectable

That's enough!

I have one head and two hands

You won't be able to wear any more jewelry.

Xiaoyu, what do you think of Pear Blossom and Qian Laifu?

I think it's pretty good.

Smart people will protect their own people.

He was also filial to Grandpa Qian.

Um

Most importantly, there are no in-laws.

Pear Blossom, please suffer less mistreatment in the future.

Uncle, you don't seem to be here just to deliver an invitation today.

Just say what you want to say.

Uncle

I've got my eye on Lai Fu.

You want him to be with Pear Blossom

It's best to marry into the family.

If he is unwilling

It's not that we can't discuss it.

I have no objection.

However, there is one...

Uncle, you said

If I have two sons in the future

Can we keep one surnamed Qian?

I can't let the Qian family line die out.

This is fine.

But in the end, you still have to ask Laifu himself.

The child is growing up

Marriage is a lifelong commitment

We can't sell it for him.

That was certainly an unwilling marriage.

I, Zhao Dashu, don't want it either.

If Laifu really can enter your Zhao family

I'm relieved.

Trust me so much

You third branch of the Zhao family are of good character and protective of your own.

Where is that girl, Pear Blossom?

I took the girl to catch eels.

They said they wanted stir-fried eel for lunch.

That's just his personality.

A grand banquet for marrying into a high-class family

He must not be reprimanded eight times a day

If it's not right, then don't marry.

Our family doesn't lack that bit of social status.

Let her live however makes her happy.

It's also good that the little girl is lucky.

She benefited from her sister's fame.

What if Dad Qian Laifu doesn't want to?

Then let's find someone else.

Good-looking

Good character is all that matters

You think pear blossoms are so full of affection?

She probably only liked that guy's looks.

Why are you staring at me all day, sir?

Uncle Zhao came by

I've been here

Sending invitations to Sister Xiaoyu

more than

Lai Fu

What do you think of pear blossoms?

Grandpa, she's still a child.

She used to chase after me asking for candy.

You suddenly asked this.

Uncle Zhao must not break my legs.

Hmph

It was your Uncle Zhao who brought it up first.

Uncle Zhao asked me to go with Pear Blossom

He wants to recruit you into his family.

If I have two sons in the future

You can keep one surname, Qian.

Are you willing to continue doing business and studying?

They even went to the prefectural city together.

He supports it.

If I get old, and you really can enter the Zhao family...

I can leave in peace after this.

Their family members are of good character and also protective of their own.

I've never thought about it that way.

Let me think about it.

Marriage is a lifelong commitment

I can't agree without thinking.

Cheng Buji

Think about it slowly.

Ooh ooh ooh

Why are you back again?

I had a fight with my in-laws.

They forced me to come back.

Why force you to come back?

Dazhuzi got married so quickly, only 6 days later.

It has to be fast

Xiaoyu's side is about to be done.

We need to fall behind him.

The village must compare from head to toe.

Who over there can compare?

Wedding attire, sedan chair, and mat have all been prepared.

Rent a wedding dress and have it made for your return visit.

The sedan chair was not picked up by an oxcart.

A meat dish on the table

The rest are all vegetarian.

My mother is getting married in the village now.

Many families now have two meat dishes.

They are other people.

Our family still needs to support Sanzhuzi's schooling.

Mother, is it absolutely necessary for him to study this book?

Sanzhuzi is not young anymore.

Still thinking about playing every day

You don't even know to pick up the broom when it falls to your feet.

Do you really think he can become a scholar?

Your dad has made up his mind about him.

My third uncle's family is rich and can afford to squander it.

Your money was dug out one shovel at a time.

Mother, I'm afraid you two will both get sick from staying up so long.

The money is gone.

It was all for nothing.

Your second aunt is really going all out.

I must get Dazhuzi's wedding done before you do.

She wasn't trying to steal the day.

They're afraid that if we hold the event next to theirs, people will compare us.

Being too proud to admit defeat is a recipe for suffering.

Since it's already done...

We'll be there on time for the wedding banquet.

I don't ride an oxcart to pick up my bride.

Not riding in an oxcart

You still want to ride in a sedan chair?

The sedan chair is free.

Doesn't my third uncle's family have a mule cart?

Can I borrow one?

Decent, good-looking, and saves money

Go find the third brother

I can't just refuse to lend you my car.

Third brother Dazhu gets married

I'd like to borrow your mule cart for the wedding procession.

That's all.

The day before the wedding, I had the driver come with me.

Thank you, Third Brother

This car is really impressive.

Don't touch anything, I finally got it all tidy.

Mother, that's enough.

Everyone's waiting.

It's about time, let's go.

Slow down on the road

Hold on tight, today is your big day!

knew

Sweep the main room again

Don't let anyone touch anything in the new house.

Hahaha

Xiaoyu, come quick!

In a few days you'll be a little wife too.

Milk is still quite reluctant to part with you.

I am looking for a son-in-law.

Still unmarried

How many good things does your dad prepare for you?

Say let the milk open its eyes

Where are my second aunts? The bride and groom are nowhere to be seen today.

Busy running around the yard

Just came out of the kitchen

They went to the new house again.

Come and have some sunflower seeds.

Thank you, Grandma

Haha, you're about the same age as Xiaoyu.

Hurry up and go over for a chat

ah

Xiaoyu, I

Sitting is tiring, standing is too tiring.

Haha, the wedding banquet here is over!

Then it's your turn to eat.

How many tables are you planning to host?

We'll have to see it then.

What good things has your dad prepared for you?

I'm asking you, Xiaoyu.

Not all orders have been finalized yet.

You'll find out then.

Siya

Big sister, come with me to the backyard, I have something to do.

What's the rush?

Your sister is talking here.

You'll know when he gets there.

We'll talk about Zhao Di later.

Oh, you clever little devil!

Wait a little longer

My head is about to explode.

My brother-in-law asked me to come and save you.

He said you hate being surrounded by people chatting with you the most.

He saw everything.

I knew it

The bride is back!

Slow down, sit here.

Take a look at what the bride looks like.

Why

Make way for the newlyweds to enter.

Be careful of the brazier

Bowing to Heaven and Earth

The family prospers

Second bow to the parents

Wishing you both good health

Husband and wife bowing to each other

The two should be more considerate of each other in the future.

Less arguing, more tolerance - courtesy complete

Hahaha

Groom, hurry up and lift the veil! Don't dawdle!

The banquet is about to begin outside.

Stop shouting.

Hahaha

This new bride seems to know how to manage a household.

Please give me your aunt's auspicious words.

The banquet is about to begin outside.

You go first.

Why

Everyone came out to sit down.

The hot dishes are served!

Hahaha

Young sister-in-law eats shrimp

Hahaha

This is Grandma, sister-in-law.

Hello, Grandma

This is my third aunt.

Hello, Third Aunt

This is Xiaoyu.

Xiaoyu Girl

I've heard of you before.

See you today

Even better looking than rumored

Sister-in-law, you flatter me.

I heard you're getting married in a few days.

Is there anything I can help you with?

Don't be shy

We'll all be one family from now on.

Let the feast begin!

Sister-in-law, please sit down.

I'll bring you your food.

Eat quickly, if you're still not full, I'll get you more.

Big sister, you should eat with us too.

Do you still have cornbread, big sister?

I'll get it for you again.

So delicious

The chicken didn't even have a chicken butt.

This isn't how you save money.

Why

father

The food at my second uncle's house was really awful today.

Hahaha

The food at my dad's and second uncle's house today was awful.

Didn't you hire a chef?

A chef has been hired

The vegetables were all boiled in water.

Not much oil

Even the cornbread tastes bad.

Even when I was forced to eat coarse grains for three days, it was better than today.

Say less in front of children

Actually, it's already pretty good. (Pear Blossom)

When you were little, you wanted to eat cornbread.

Your grandma only gives you half a day.

Milk used to be extremely stingy.

Mom, I'll help you pack.

Oh, today is your big day!

How can I let you do work?

My parents have been busy for two days.

Working together will be faster

This daughter-in-law seems more reliable than your son.

Why are you out working?

Seeing parents busy helping out

Go back to the room and rest

There wasn't much left.

Big Pillar, go return the stool.

Your wife sweeps the yard

That's enough for today.

Mom will tell you properly tomorrow.

What are some of the chores we usually do at home?

Listen to your mother

This person works even harder than Zhao Di.

Please don't visit my second brother's house so often in the future.

There was leftover food at every table today.

They've completely lost face.

Don't mention them

First, get Ruxin's wedding arranged as soon as possible.

People are very picky.

Or give more dowry

She should marry early; she still has two sons to marry.

We have to do it this year too.

Where will the eldest son live after his wedding?

Where are there any empty rooms in the house?

First, marry Ruxin off.

Just vacate the room.

Get things done quickly

Don't bother me here.

Did this bastard eat firecrackers today?

My family situation

How much do you know?

I heard that his parents favored Sanzhuzi.

He has been spending money to support his education.

More than just partial pain

They also want me to...

Earn money with Er Suzi to support him

Like how my father-in-law used to support my eldest brother-in-law

Therefore, I would never do it.

Don't be too diligent in the future.

Mom asked you to do chores

Slow down when you should.

Grind it if it needs grinding.

I'll listen to you.

The more capable you are

The more work she gives you

There's so much housework to do.

But all the money went into Sanzhuzi's pocket.

But can we keep enduring this?

Parents are still young

The second master and the third pillar will both get married in the future.

Are we supposed to support their wives and children?

Don't stay up

What does that mean?

I'm preparing to separate the family.

ah

Will the parents-in-law agree?

If you don't agree, you'll make a scene.

One day without distinction, one day of chaos.

One year without distinction, another year of trouble

Remember, you must be on my side.

You are my man

Of course I'm of one mind with you.

Never mind.

You sit and rest for a while.

I'll handle these.

Thank you, Mom.

When will the head of the household bring up the idea of ​​dividing the family property?

I'll mention it when I get back in the afternoon.

OK

You don't need to say anything.

Everything is with me

Daughter, aren't these clothes for the servants?

Why did you pick so many?

For our relatives

Why should they get off easy?

The day of the scholar's banquet

Several relatives had many patches on their clothes.

It's so bad that you can't even tell the original appearance.

My second uncle's family was especially poor.

They're still related to us.

People in the county town won't just laugh at them.

They'll also laugh at you and Xiao Lei.

Xiaoyu is right.

One person makes one body

At least put on a good show on your wedding day.

The banquet for the master has been booked for 80 tables.

Wedding candy, peanuts, and melon seeds have all been delivered.

The city cook will arrive tomorrow.

Are 80 tables enough?

Many people came from the village

There are still guests in the county

Don't end up with nowhere to sit.

You thought 70 tables yesterday was too few?

Increased to 80 today

You complain it's not enough.

In addition, our yard wall will have to be torn down.

Two lanterns are still missing at the gate of Daddy's house.

Hang them all

My daughter got married

Our family went from being the head of the village to the head of the courtyard.

My father was the one who got married.

This is not your second time passing the imperial examination.

What do you know? This is a once-in-a-lifetime event.

Magistrate Qian's family

Song family head and village chief

That's about it.

Lei Zi Zhao Shu

What do you think about Xiao Ping's side?

No need to send it, think it through.

Getting married is a big deal

He is your biological father after all.

The letter severing ties was stamped with his own seal.

They didn't treat me like a son during my hardest times.

Now I don't have to suddenly become a father when I get married.

become

You are in charge of your own affairs.

The Wang family at the east end of the village received the invitation.

People who are completely unrelated to us can come to us.

You are his biological father

He won't invite you to his wedding.

What will the whole village think of us?

He really intends to become Zhao Dashu's father.

He has the blood of the Xiao family flowing in his veins.

A few days left

Three days

Three days left

Are you nervous?

What do I have to be nervous about?

I'll pick you up.

I'm nervous.

What are you so nervous about?

I'm afraid all of this is like a dream.

So many people have been busy for three days to arrange your wedding.

Dreams don't cost that much money.

Hmph, I'm his biological father.

I'll see who he bows to on his wedding day.

Firecrackers

Eight boxes

Wedding candy

Five large baskets

liquor

Zhao Dashu, you've been asking this since this morning.

Things can't grow legs and run away.

Mother, don't worry about him.

He'll probably have to sleep with a wine jar by himself tonight.

Nonsense, I'm just being cautious.

Dad, you came and counted the lanterns three times last night.

A thousand arrows piercing through the armor!

father

Why aren't you asleep yet?

I still need to do my hair and put on makeup tomorrow morning.

You didn't sleep either.

Why are your eyes red?

The wind

There was no wind today.

Smoked by lanterns

You were only this tall when you were little.

He chases after me calling me "Dad" every day, and in the blink of an eye...

I'm not leaving.

I know it was that brat who came to our house.

Even after I get married, Dad, I'll still be your daughter.

nonsense

Even when you're 80, you'll still be my daughter.

Hahaha

Tomorrow is a big day.

No one is allowed to drink thunder tonight.

right

Miss Zhao will come to pick me up in person tomorrow.

How embarrassing to get passed out drunk!

Stop making fun of me.

Hahaha

Lei Zi opened the door

Tomorrow's wedding

Dad has come to say a few words to you.

No need to open

Really not seen

not see

Walk quickly, walk quickly

You are not welcome here.

I am his father

Why are you stopping me?

See? They've grown wings now.

Hahaha

He can refuse to let me in.

What about tomorrow?

The wedding ceremony will be held tomorrow.

I want to ask him in front of everyone.

My biological father is still alive

Why should he acknowledge someone else as his father?

Miss, are you inviting me to a banquet or inviting fish to a banquet?

Oh, what a coincidence to run into you!

I'm getting married

Come to the wedding banquet

Can I bring my family?

Sure, who would you bring?

Prince

Your Highness, I'd like to invite you to a banquet.

Why do we have to feed the prince?

Don't worry, I'll farm and raise him.

I'll pay for the meal.

Did you hear that? This is dressed as a peasant girl, wow!

Shen Yuntang, the female protagonist of "Farming and Raising a Prince"

Another new drama has been released.

Welcome everyone to our theater's new play.

Transmigrated as a peasant girl

I raise a prince by farming.

Let's watch the show first.

The wedding banquet is for the prince.

Remember to prepare two extra bowls of rice.

You should bring the fish instead.

More great dramas are waiting for you to watch.

Remember to follow and bookmark!

The Xiao clan forced Xiao Lei to break off the engagement.

Xiao Lei, however, was convinced that the Zhao family

Never regret it

After that, he and Zhao Dashu went to take the exam together.

Both passed the imperial examination and became scholars.

Zhao Xiaoyu has also set a wedding date.

The wedding is just one day away.

But Xiao Ping suddenly came to the door.

He threatened to demand an explanation in public during the wedding ceremony.

ah

Um

Miss, it's time to get up.

The wedding party had almost finished breakfast.

Let them have another meal

Eldest sister, you're getting married today.

I know, that's why I couldn't sleep all night.

Who was it last night who said there was nothing to be nervous about about getting married?

ah

I was afraid you'd be nervous.

The bride can't complain about the trouble today.

After wearing this outfit

Can I still walk?

You don't need to run errands today.

No, I have to go and pick up the person.

The fragrance of osmanthus filled the air.

Mom, please don't cry so early in the morning.

Who cried?

Comb from head to tail

Smooth sailing

Ah, how come it's getting light so fast?

Big sister, you're so beautiful!

It is indeed quite beautiful.

So beautiful

daughter

Will she be startled when she sees me?

Go see for yourself

So, am I pretty or not?

You are the village belle of the beautiful old sow village.

I'll go tell Dad.

hand

Mother, I brought the person back today.

It's not like they're not coming back.

I just think my daughter looks really beautiful today.

Of course

Babies, thank you all for liking to dress up as a peasant girl.

Raising kids and farming is incredibly fun and exciting!

The next season is currently in rapid production.

More exciting things to come!

Remember to click to reserve and add to your favorites!

Is Daddy good-looking?

good

Your eyes are practically glued to the screen.

Hahaha

What are you all ready to laugh at?

It's better now.

Go and bring Lei Zi back in style!

daughter

Wait for us to come back

Drive slowly

I understand, Dad.

cough

Wedding procession begins

Here it comes!

Such a big show!

The Zhao family is afraid of the whole county

I don't know if they're welcoming their son-in-law

Hahaha

My wife, the Nine Swords Scholar, has personally come to fetch the Scholar to my door.

Look at this gift list

The Zhao family truly treats Xiao Lei like a treasure.

The whole village can attend the wedding banquet.

Only our family can't go.

Open the door

I'm here to pick someone up!

Haha, who are you picking up?

Who else can I pick up?

Pick up my scholar

Hahaha

Who picks up a bride like that?

It was available today.

If Scholar Xiao doesn't open the door...

The bride is going to tear down the door.

Hahaha

That's right.

Hahaha

Weren't you shouting quite loudly just now?

I've come to take you home.

good

The groom went out.

Reluctant

no

I just want to remember

Why do I need to remember it?

Remember this

Starting today

Going home is in another direction.

Then don't stand there, go home.

Come

Departure

Why are you staring at me like that?

look

I know you're watching me.

I asked you why you watched it.

This is the first time I've noticed how much you resemble a bride.

I was already today

Hey

I got it!

Give me one

The Zhao family is really willing to spend money.

This spectacle is felt throughout the surrounding villages.

We might not see each other for years.

People love their sons-in-law

You're so envious, you should marry into the family too, hahaha.

Look, look, look

They're taking him away like a treasure now.

After today's first prayer

He'll truly be a member of the Zhao family from now on.

My son got married

I need your permission to go in.

Did you put your fingerprint on the letter severing ties?

He's also my son.

He came to Chengjia today.

We can talk about it another day.

Get ready when you get back

The newlyweds arrive and open the door to welcome joy.

Come in.

good

Come in.

oh oh

The auspicious time has arrived.

May the newlyweds be of one heart and mind.

Staying together until old age

Bowing to Heaven and Earth

Respect to Heaven and Earth

Thank you for the sun, moon, mountains and rivers

May we weather the storm together

Staying together through hot and cold seasons

Year after year

Unwavering in our original aspiration

Second bow to the parents

Remembering the kindness of parents in giving birth to and raising children

Inheriting the virtue of the elders' protection

Parents

Why

Oh, good boy.

Husband and wife bowing to each other

Starting today

Sharing joys and sorrows

Honor and disgrace are interdependent

What are you laughing at?

You look good

Ceremony completed

A long and happy marriage

May you have a son soon

father

Come here, newlyweds!

Today is a joyous occasion for getting married.

From now on, I must be diligent in my studies and daily life.

The student took notes

Let's discuss it together.

I've finished listening to the reasoning.

Take a couple of bites first

You must be exhausted.

It's more tiring than working in the fields for three days straight.

Getting married sounds like you're doing hard labor.

If anyone tells me that getting married is easy again...

Who do I get angry with?

What are you laughing at?

nothing

You weren't as tired as me today.

have

Then why are you laughing?

Happy

silly

Go in

Um

See you tomorrow morning, Mother.

Why

Why are you looking at me?

Oh

How old are you?

See you tomorrow morning, Dad.

Hey, hurry inside, it's cold outside!

father

daughter

Why

Finally, there's no one here.

Don't touch me, I'll do it.

Finally lighter

So heavy

Try holding it for a day.

Never mind then.

What are you looking at again?

Look at you

How many times have I watched this today?

No number

All my studies were in vain

Can't even count

Light rain

Um

Thank you

Thank me for what?

Thank you for picking me up.

Otherwise, I'll let you walk there yourself.

I always thought

A person needs a place to sleep while they are alive.

To have food to eat

Even if you have a home

I only found out later.

It's not a real home, but someone waiting for you to come back.

So many people were waiting for me at the Zhao family's gate today.

Dad is waiting, Mom is waiting

Pear blossoms are waiting

You're waiting for me too, Xiaoyu?

Thank you for giving me a home

Xiao Lei

Um

Remember, it wasn't me who gave it to you.

This is our home.

If you ever dare to treat yourself as an outsider again

I'll deal with you first.

good

Zhao Xiaoyu

what

I, Xiao Lei, will marry you today.

I'm the one who brought you back.

good

You brought me back today.

For the rest of my life

I will never let you down.

Remember this sentence from today.

I will never forget it for the rest of my life

Still living like a human being

who

Who gave it to you?

father

Who is your father?

I didn't see it.

Uncle Zhao

What did you just call me?

father

That's more like it, let's go.

Eat the noodles Dad sent

Heat slowly

starved to death

Oh

You scared me to death!

What are you doing?

I

After getting married

What do you want to do?

Continue studying and taking exams

And you

Making money by farming

Then I'll make money too.

How do you prove it?

After passing the exam, you will receive a certificate.

Ha, then you can owe me that for now, hehe.

Let me see if they've noticed.

Delivering a bowl of noodles secretly

Drinking so much alcohol on such a joyous occasion

Don't be hungry at night

Didn't they give you two fried eggs?

One is not enough for Lei Zi to eat

I'm leaving, I'm not watching anymore.

From now on, you'll farm and I'll go to school.

Let's make our lives better together.

for you

You don't eat

One is enough, then watch.

Afraid my daughter would be hungry

Let's go, kids, you have your own lives now.

Good

Yes, it's good.

What are you looking at?

Didn't you say it today?

What did I say?

Let me take a good look

ah

Still feeling unwell

What do you think?

Husband apologizes to wife

Be normal.

If you keep talking like that

I'll sleep next door tonight

Zhao Jianfeng said women like this

You actually believe what he says?

What kind of person will you like in the future?

I will learn what kind

No need to learn

Xiao Lei, just be yourself.

No need to please anyone

Dad, you went to steal a cow last night.

My sweetheart is someone else's wife now.

Will I be able to sleep?

Why

Parents, please have some tea.

I won't say anything else.

You two should live well from now on.

Are you doing well?

Your father and I are relieved.

Don't worry, Auntie

I will definitely take good care of Xiaoyu.

Brother-in-law

Li Hua is so well-behaved.

Where to go today?

In the field

The second day of the wedding

Crops stop growing after marriage

Oh

Xiao Yu has no intention of handing over these experimental fields to the imperial court yet.

I originally planned to wait until you became an official before...

Use it to boost your political achievements

No need to wait for me

If this were truly accomplished, it would be a great achievement for the founding of the nation.

The imperial court might even bestow an honor upon you.

But I'm not at ease.

Distrustful of the county magistrate

Farm tools can be used to steal credit

At most, silver and official positions.

But this is grain.

Food is the foundation of a nation.

The county magistrate had been wanting to climb the ranks for a long time.

Is there really such an immense achievement that can be kept in the present?

Can you guarantee he won't be tempted?

cannot

So let's wait a little longer.

People's hearts are hidden behind their bellies

I can't gamble with my whole family's lives.

I oversimplified things.

You continue with your business.

I continued my studies

One day

I will stand in a high enough position to protect my master.

Also protect the Zhao family

Um

I'm waiting for that day.

The wedding banquet cost a fortune, with 80 tables of food.

How many jars of wine did they drink?

Who was it that suggested adding 10 more tables before the event?

Didn't Dad say it only happens once in a lifetime?

Of course, we should still spend the money when necessary.

Master Qian and Young Master Qian have arrived.

Big Tree

Your family was busy with Xiaoyu's wedding a while ago.

Laifu has also figured out his own situation.

Uncle Zhao, I'm willing to marry into your family.

Good!

My grandfather and I were each other's only family.

Where will I be in the future?

Grandpa was there

Of course, living together

It's lively with lots of people.

If you and Pear Blossom have two sons in the future

A man surnamed Qian

A man surnamed Zhao

Neither family's incense offerings will be delayed.

Uncle Zhao, there's something else I'm worried about.

you say

Pear Blossom is still quite young.

Now she thinks I'm good

But if a few years later

She truly understood the love between men and women.

But you've fallen for someone else.

ah

Hehe, the last bag is mine.

Nobody is allowed to steal it, hehe.

How could I not understand?

Xiao Lei stays at home every day

He's been watching for so many years

Of course I know what engagement is.

Don't worry, the pear blossoms won't let you down.

So, we don't necessarily have to die today.

I asked Xiaoyu to ask her again.

Both of them have thought it through.

Let's sit down and talk again

That's the safest approach.

It's done

They agreed, but they worried that Pear Blossom might change her mind later.

It's really hard to say what kind of personality pear blossom has.

So you should hurry up and ask.

Engagement is not child's play.

Once people are selected

You have to live your life earnestly.

Now you're saying that?

My daughter's matter

Of course I will

Qian Laifu agreed.

Don't be happy yet, Li Hua

You really know what engagement is?

I understand.

It's not that I like this today.

Tomorrow I'll think other people are more attractive.

Set aside money and taxes

Barring any unforeseen circumstances

You two have to spend your whole lives together.

There will be more beautiful things outside later.

Good at coaxing people

One should not be easily swayed by emotions.

You absolutely cannot start something and then abandon it, understand?

I understand, just like my parents, you, and my brother-in-law.

Really understand

I truly understand him; I chose him myself.

Big sister, please don't always treat me like a child.

I'm very serious about Laifu.

They've got both of them willing.

Then they would choose a date to get engaged.

My eldest daughter just got married

My little girl is getting engaged again.

Am I getting old?

Do you have gray hair?

Where is all black?

We're still young.

Pear blossoms are really fine.

Don't worry, they're very capable.

My third uncle's family is really rich.

The people who pick up the bride receive red envelopes.

There were also people who helped.

I even received some wedding candy and snacks.

Envy is useless

We'll earn our own money from now on.

The red envelope your third uncle gave you that day

You still have it

Of course, this is what I earned by helping with the wedding procession.

We'll keep this for our future life together.

Dazhuzi, the day your third uncle got married

Did you give red envelopes to the people who came to pick up the bride?

So what if I gave it to them?

You haven't separated yet.

That silver should be turned over to the public treasury.

Mother, you'd better not force me.

Mother doesn't necessarily want your money.

Sanzhuzi's schooling in the county town was too expensive.

Family difficulties

As the older brother, you should help me out.

cannot

He is your younger brother.

My third uncle is my father's younger brother.

My third uncle was extremely wealthy.

Tell your father to go and ask him for the money.

Sanzhuzi is your son.

You can make your own offerings.

You are the boss

You should think more about your parents.

The family hasn't been divided yet.

You cannot have private savings

My silver

I'm saving it to support my own wife and children.

Give me the big pillar silver

Not give

Surely the matriarch wouldn't forcibly take money from the vegetables?

She didn't dare to be afraid of her parents because they were bullies who preyed on the weak.

Two ounces or so

There are probably more servants in Uncle San's family than this.

When we have money in the future

Are you still going to study?

Not studying is a waste of money

Let's make money.

Buy land and build houses

More practical than anything else

Erzhuzi, bring the red envelope your third uncle gave you.

Big brother, ask me for it again.

Your older brother got married.

Are you married?

Stop talking nonsense and get to the point.

Not give

You want to rebel too?

If they can't control their older brother, they'll try to control me.

The money was taken away to pay for Sanzhuzi's schooling.

From now on, I'll do as much as my older brother does.

I won't be a fool like my third uncle.

To be someone's slave for life

My eldest and second eldest brothers don't support me.

How will I study in the future?

No, Dad has to find a way to keep them in check.

They've gone too far!

Both of those brats dared to hide money from each other.

Murder! Help!

Go ahead and kill me if you dare.

I'll make a scene every day if we don't separate.

I'll also divide it after I get married.

Whoever wants to worship the three pillars can do so.

Dayong's child is grown up

It's not a big deal to keep some silver on you.

Don't push me to this point.

A family should be of one mind.

Sanzhuzi will be successful in the future.

They're about to split up.

Shut up, who starts dividing up their property right after getting married?

If you cause any more trouble, get out of the Zhao clan!

Even an upright official finds it difficult to settle family disputes.

Yours is even harder to determine.

Xiaoyu returned to the village.

Isn't today the third-day homecoming ceremony?

Could it be that I'm really going back to the Xiao family?

They didn't even give them wedding invitations, it doesn't seem right.

When you're in charge, never give someone a hard time.

Especially light rain

You have to go along with him.

They spoke politely.

I naturally wouldn't cause trouble.

Thinking about my two sons' marriages

This time we absolutely have to rebuild our relationship.

Why aren't they here yet?

Mother and the others aren't coming.

Where else could they go if they didn't come for their homecoming visit today?

I went up the mountain to visit my grandparents.

And the old lady

I'd rather see a dead person than visit my own father.

Let's fix the grave properly in the future.

These few mounds of earth are too shabby.

Make it more grand

Circle this area.

Only left for them

good

Grandpa, Grandma, and Xiaoyu and I have come to visit you.

We got married a couple of days ago.

Today is the third day after the wedding ceremony.

I have no home to return to.

So I came back here.

Grandpa, you used to love drinking the most.

I'll have someone send you a pot every month from now on.

My mother, Xiaoyu, is very good to me.

Uncle Zhao and the others treated me very well.

I will live a good life with him.

I would never be a heartless scumbag like Xiao Ping.

If I ever change my mind or become bad...

You just take me away.

Lei Zi, Lei Zi, I'm here!

Lei Zi, what are you talking about with your mother? Are you done talking yet?

We haven't even talked about how scumbags deserve to die a horrible death.

Grandparents, don't worry.

Xiao Lei was missing something before

I'll make it up to him later.

Lei Zi went home for dinner

Your mother has been waiting for you since early morning.

I'm talking to you.

I must come back at noon

Xiao Lei

I am his biological father

Why can't he be a little more understanding of me?

Who sent it and when?

Register everything again, no matter the value.

In the future, when they handle matters...

We should give them a return gift.

I'll write it down.

Should we set up a separate warehouse for you?

From now on, you will be in charge of the children's clothing department yourself.

I will give you money every month.

don't want

Why

Didn't you say that men with money are more likely to go bad?

I'll ask you for money if I need it.

I never thought you were living off a woman.

Married life is about two people living together.

I know that money is not of much use to me.

As long as I can buy you what you like, that's enough.

The eldest sister's gifts were managed by servants.

Why do you remember it so clearly?

The closer someone is to you, the less you should let your guard down.

Accounts and money

You must be clear about this in your heart.

Is that woman trying to scam me?

What's the meaning

He told me more than once that you were looking for a son-in-law.

I'm also looking for a son-in-law.

But you'll be in charge of everything at home from now on.

I will suffer a loss

And you even said your parents favor you.

From now on, my child and I will have to be mindful of your mood.

He also said that rich girls get married

They would give their personal maids to men as concubines.

What else did he say?

sir, please spare me!

This servant did not sow discord between the two young ladies.

Absolutely not

Miss, please explain!

I have served you for so many years

Everything I do is for your benefit.

You still dare to say I wronged you?

Big sister, I'm not jealous of you.

I never intended to steal money from my family.

I know what kind of person you are.

How could the eldest sister not know?

The second young lady is young.

What she said doesn't count.

Wasn't it you who advised me yesterday not to date a country bumpkin?

Did you say I should stay?

No one in the family can ever compare to the eldest sister.

Master and Madam

The jade fish did indeed say that

The maid also advised her

One should not interfere in the master's affairs.

Since you know

Why is it never reported?

The servants thought

Black-hearted and rotten things

My Two Daughters

It's not your place to scheme against us.

Everyone around Rika was also investigated.

The servant was wrong

I'll never do it again.

Please, miss, have mercy on me this once.

Light rain

If they all have their own thoughts

They are outwardly respectful to us

Doing bad things behind someone's back

We've treated them well.

father

Is a person good or bad?

We can't decide based solely on whether we treat him well or not.

People's hearts are hidden behind their bellies

Before moving to the prefectural city

Thorough investigation of the entire farm

People around Pear Blossom

People around parents

The people around Xiao Lei and me

And all the stewards

Not one was missed

Stay loyal

No one with disloyal intentions will be spared.

Green bamboo often says

Being a maid is a waste of your potential.

Sooner or later, I'll have to find a way to become the master.

What else did he say?

She said that the master and mistress were also poor people before.

Now they've suddenly become so rich.

There must be a secret to making money hidden in their home.

Why has no one ever reported this?

This servant dares not

She was favored by the second young lady.

The servant was afraid of causing trouble.

Cuizhu often met with Steward Xia in private.

A maid in the inner courtyard

a workshop manager

It was found that they were cousins.

It was bought by the master in several separate transactions.

Manager Xia wanted to steal the workshop's money-making methods.

Cui Zhuo planned to become Li Hua's concubine after Li Hua got married.

Then take her cousin and register him as a slave.

Then what

Go out and open another workshop

Stealing the Zhao family's business

What a huge meeting place!

I personally selected each of these people one by one.

I think I'm pretty good at judging people.

It's not that you have bad taste

Capable people are naturally more likely to be ambitious.

We were too lenient before.

Being nice to them is not an option.

It can be good, but there must be rules and distance.

They also need to know what they can do.

What cannot be touched

Then change it so that no manager will give permission in the future.

Servants in the village are not allowed to go out at will.

People who serve closely

All those who knew but did not report it were replaced.

What should be done after the investigation is completed?

Cuizhu and her cousin were severely punished according to the family law based on the contract.

Others who knew but did not report

All those involved in the concealment of the sale

Leave none behind

Don't let your heart be soft today.

They might take the whole family tomorrow.

To use one's life to patch this hole

My daughter did the right thing.

Cuizhu and Steward Xia have been dealt with according to family rules.

All other people who knew but did not report it were sold off.

But they are the ones in the wrong.

Not all of you

A person who is loyal to his work

How it was before

What will happen in the future?

The Zhao family will not betray its master because of a few people.

Treat everyone like a thief.

She is the young lady

The rules have been established

People's hearts must be kept stable.

Both kindness and severity are necessary.

The old man's engagement to Lihua needs to be arranged.

In addition, we are planning to move to the prefectural city.

You are staying in the county town

Still with us

The shop is ready to be sold.

That would be great if they really went.

Haha, from now on we'll go fishing and stroll around every day!

How big is the prefectural city?

Enough for us to shop for years

Ha ha

That is, the teacher who taught Laifu.

I'll have to trouble you to help me find one.

Leave it to me

Let's go to the temple together tomorrow.

Choose a wedding date for the two children

Babies, thank you all for liking to dress up as a peasant girl.

Raising kids and farming is incredibly fun and exciting!

The next season is currently in rapid production.

More exciting things to come!

Remember to click to reserve and add to your favorites!

The Qian family will go to the prefectural city with us.

I'll go to the temple tomorrow to pick an auspicious day.

I'm really getting engaged!

After the engagement is settled, she will be a young woman.

Don't be so impulsive all the time

Sister, don't worry.

I have a plan.

I didn't notice it at all.

Um

I also talked to your maternal grandfather's family about Cui Chu today.

They'll have to be more careful when hiring servants in the future.

It took you an hour to wash the dishes.

Mom, I'm afraid it's not clean enough.

What about the others?

My mother told me to collect it.

I'll accept it now.

Big Pillar, what exactly do you want?

Dad, what's wrong with me?

Tell me where I went wrong and I'll fix it.

Your wife takes more than an hour to wash a few dishes.

Doing laundry and not coming home for half a day, and you're still here.

Can you dig two furrows in a day?

I'm innocent!

What did Mom ask us to do?

What haven't we done?

I squat in the ground every day

He was busy from morning till night.

What else do you want?

I don't want to live anymore

Doing it is not right either

It's also wrong to work too slowly.

The Zhao family's threshold is too high

I can't afford it.

What will I do if my wife dies?

father

You've already pressured me and Erzhuzi enough.

Now even my wife is being driven to suicide.

What's all this fuss about now?

I have no face to live anymore.

The new bride had only been married for 7 days.

My father-in-law pointed his finger at me and said I was lazy.

I told him he was slow at working.

How did it become driving him to his death?

There's never enough housework to do.

Growing vegetables, raising pigs, and clearing land

They wish they could make 20 people do the work of 10.

Isn't it all for the sake of supporting Sanzhuzi's education?

Dreaming of splitting up

You can only separate from the family if I die.

Everyone, please give your opinions.

My wife has only been married for a few days.

They're almost driven to the brink of despair.

Shut up, you little brat!

Da Yong's new bride, please go slower.

Why did it have to be this bad?

Sanzhuzi has never been to the ground, has he?

You don't really want the eldest and second eldest sons to support him forever.

This is not the same as the old eldest brother.

What's different?

I heard he gets scolded by the teacher every day at the academy.

My child started school two years later and has almost caught up with him.

Sanzhuzi is very clever.

He's just young.

It's not that he can't read

It's because the teacher didn't teach well.

He would definitely succeed if he had a different teacher.

OK

You'll just keep lying to yourselves like this for the rest of your lives.

What's all the fuss about so late at night?

Is the family still going to live together?

My dad complains that my wife is too slow at doing chores.

They even want us to clear land and raise pigs.

Earn more money to send Sanzhuzi to school in the county town

Second brother, look at yourself.

He's exhausted himself like an old man in just a few years.

Will the three pillars of the mother be successful in the future?

What kind of future is that?

He wasn't even half as good at studying as his older brother.

Mother spoke from the bottom of her heart.

Sanzhu is not cut out for studying.

Stop fighting against fate.

In the end, the money was gone.

People are exhausted.

daughter

Sanzhuzi is your own grandson.

How could you say that about him?

I only said that because he is my own grandson.

It's one thing if you can't study

Unfilial

This kid is really no good.

ah

daughter

Sanzhuzi, get out here!

Waaaaah

pain

Pain in the bones above the buttocks

Like splitting me in two

Mother, I'm going to find a doctor.

Uncle, hurry back to the village.

The old lady was seriously injured.

It was pushed by three beads.

He's going to die!

Why did he push his mother to do that?

Can my sister still go to choose a wedding date tomorrow?

Not a single word is allowed to be mentioned when returning to the village.

First, check the extent of the milk damage.

Where does Mom hurt?

Third son

Mother's bones hurt

That bastard Sanzhuzi is too ruthless.

Three pillars?

The child was terrified inside the house.

It terrified the 9-year-old.

After stimulating her breastfeeding, she locked the door and hid.

This is called being terrified.

It's none of your business to discipline my own child.

He even dared to push your own mother and still protect her.

Get out of here!

Mother, please don't send me away.

When you feel better

I'll make San Shuzi kneel down and apologize to you.

You don't forgive him

He wouldn't let him get up.

Get out, I don't want to see you.

Does Mother still love you?

Is it any better?

pain

It hurts so much!

Third brother

Mother, I am here

Don't go, don't go.

The doctor is here, make way!

ah

Ahhh

Is the injury to the coccyx serious?

It's probably going to be very difficult to recover.

doctor

Please save me

I have silver

No matter how much money it costs, it can cure you.

It's not about the money.

The old lady was old and her bones were brittle.

If I'm not mistaken

The coccyx is broken.

Will I die?

Not enough to die

It's just that I'm afraid I'll have a hard time getting out of bed again.

No, I want to stand up.

I don't want to be saved while lying in bed.

Help me!

I'm willing to spend any amount of money on the doctor.

There's really no way.

This type of location is the most difficult to cultivate.

Even if an 18-year-old falls like this

It's possible that he might never be able to stand up again.

Prescribe painkillers first.

I'll prescribe a few doses of medicine.

Send someone to pick it up with me

Zhao Dayong

Swoosh

I don't care who you favor.

I don't care how much trouble your family causes.

But your son pushed his mother away like this.

I can't ignore it

Nine years old is still too young

How dare you curse your own mother as a dead old woman?

How exactly did you teach him?

I didn't expect it.

I really didn't expect it to turn out like this, hahaha.

I really can't move anymore.

Third brother, find some more good doctors for your mother.

If the county town doesn't work, then try the prefectural city.

If the prefectural city isn't enough, then it's even further.

Mother doesn't want to lie down for the rest of her life.

Mother, I'll find someone to come see you again tomorrow.

Don't be afraid if you really can't stand up.

You have three sons

You can't just be left unattended.

Then take turns serving.

All three of you have to take care of me.

Mother was injured this time

The second brother's family bears the greatest responsibility.

The person pushed by the three pillars

Of course, the second brother would take the lead in paying the money.

Third brother is right.

Whoever causes the trouble is responsible.

No, I don't want my second brother's family to serve me.

I'm afraid they'll get annoyed one day.

It suffocated me.

Huang Shi took care of him.

If that's not enough, buy another person.

The three of you pay the money.

We'll discuss these later.

Treat the injuries first

Third brother, do you know what kind of situation my family is in?

I'm afraid I really can't afford the medicine.

How much medication did the doctor add tonight?

The 6 ounces of medicine is only enough for five days.

The doctor said the bone-strengthening medicine later on is more expensive.

6 liang in five days

This is not like taking medicine.

They're eating gold!

Three Pillars' Tuition Fees

Food, lodging, writing materials gone

So the eldest brother has 40 taels.

Second brother 40 taels

I'll handle the rest.

Why should I push Mommy?

When my father had that accident

The second brother also contributed money.

Now that my mother is in trouble

You, the eldest son, want to give nothing at all?

I will ask the clan chief and village head to come over now.

The eldest son does not support his mother.

Can you live up to this reputation?

Boss, do you dare not...?

I'll go to the yamen and sue you for being unfilial.

Mother, I am Da Wen

Your most painful article

If you keep pushing me, I'll even take back what I used to give you.

We need to get back all the money we spent on school.

snort

Alright, big brother and second brother, stop dawdling.

Go home and get the money

Go and get the silver now.

No money in 15 minutes

I'll call the clan chief.

Put them all here with me

I need to hire a good doctor.

I still want to stand up

Mother, keep this money.

From now on, please get your prescriptions from here.

I'll take care of the rest after I've spent it all.

good

Mother will listen to you.

That pear blossom will be engaged tomorrow, and a date will be chosen.

Are you still going or not?

go

Your breasts are so badly injured

Now to hold a wedding

She must not get angry.

They said they'd bring her good luck by having her marry a virtuous woman.

You're quick-witted.

This illness in my mother won't get better in just three to five days.

We can't keep dragging this out.

ah

Mother, you've gone mad!

Why did you hit me?

I'm hitting you.

Your grandma was paralyzed by your push.

You've squandered all the money in the house.

If you're paralyzed, then you're paralyzed.

How could you say something like that?

The woman in charge seems to have fallen.

Let's go out and see.

Her son, whom she spoiled

Suffer by yourself

The 40 taels were given away

How much is left at home?

There's still a fart left.

I've almost emptied my savings from all these years.

The money is gone

Give me the money for my mother's medicine

It just got to my hands.

Why is the medicine so expensive, Third Brother?

It's full of good stuff, of course it's expensive!

Is money more important or life?

Most important to the body

Third brother, are you still going to study, Xiao Lei?

I'm not going to study anymore.

There are enough scholars

Xiao Lei will go to the prefectural city in a while.

Enter the best academy

He went alone

Of course, Xiaoyu will come along.

How can you separate a newlywed couple?

He was ultimately a son-in-law.

Aren't you all too concerned about him?

I know what I'm doing.

Late-night snack is ready

The bone broth noodles contained egg, shredded pork, and greens.

You two are planning to eat your 40 taels back!

Every bite counts.

Master Huang, another bowl?

I want one too.

I'll have a bowl too.

no

It's so full it's almost in my throat.

Mm, I'm full.

Well

You should get some sleep.

Why was I the one who ate the most in the family before?

Who is it that's squatting at my door so early in the morning?

Third brother, you're finally back!

Sanzhuzi didn't come home all night.

You have a lot of family members

Help your second sister-in-law look for it.

Why did he run away?

You hit him last night

I got so angry that I slapped him a few times.

He shoved me and ran away.

Pushing the mother-in-law and then the mother-in-law

You've really raised a good son.

such a big child

They can all go out and work in the fields now.

Your three little beads will never grow up.

I told them to only search the surrounding area.

I don't have time to chase him all over the world since he's gone far away.

Sanzhuzi, come back with us.

You think you're worthy of coming to me?

Let me go, I'll be successful someday.

You're waiting for you.

It's all my fault.

I shouldn't have hit him last night.

She didn't push her mother-in-law on purpose.

It was her mother-in-law who first said she was useless.

She couldn't help herself for a moment.

My second aunt and grandmother are lying down now.

I can't move at all

It's not good for you to breastfeed yourself.

She doesn't talk nonsense about Sanzhuzi being useless.

Can the child push her?

Grandson pushes his mother until she is paralyzed

In the end, it was still the mother's fault.

Later, Da Zhuzi's son will call you an old hag.

I'll push you until you're paralyzed on one side.

Should I also say the child is still young?

It wasn't intentional.

I was just confused and blurted things out when I was in a panic.

Leave some room for decency

Sooner or later

What you sow, you reap.

My house is too small to accommodate you.

Let me go

Who gave you permission to treat your son like this?

release

Uncle, you need to train your servants properly.

They even dare to pull their master.

When did you become their master?

I let you drag me.

If you can't stand it, then get out.

If you can't stand it, then get out.

Don't come to my house again.

Sanzhuzi, wait for your mother.

Dad, you stayed up all night last night.

Go back and catch up on your sleep.

Huang can't take care of it all by herself.

Your grandma will be able to take medicine, eat, and turn over in the future.

Everyone needs to be in charge.

This matter cannot fall entirely on our side.

certainly

Mother isn't just mine.

Especially your second uncle

snort

Silver Flower Three Pillars

It would be better to use the money to support his own mother.

Who should pay next?

Every penny counted

Oh, your second uncle and his wife are really carefree.

Sanzhuzi stopped caring.

It's probably really over.

It's over.

Each person chooses their own day

Let's not worry about them.

Sanzhuzi's personality

The bigger it is, the harder it is to control

What do you want to do?

He took advantage of this opportunity to push and injure his grandmother.

Cut the relationship

Uncle cannot break

At least take the three beads from us

This life is completely eliminated

In the future, I will study and find a teacher to go to the county town or the prefectural town.

Don't let him use our family's help anymore.

The sooner this root of the problem is addressed, the better.

Wait until your dad wakes up

Let's discuss it.

Where is your mother?

I went to the fields early this morning.

Why is there no one cooking at home?

Mother didn't go to the fields

Where did he go?

Last night, my mother beat three pillars.

Sanzhuzi scolded her

He pushed her and ran away.

He still dares to hit your mother

Mother's face turned white from the fall.

My back hurts so much I can't move.

I helped her in.

Sanzhuzi cursed quite rudely as he ran away.

Pushing two elders in one night

That brat really doesn't want to live anymore.

Brother, where should we look?

Wander around for half an hour

If you can't find it, go back to eat.

I'll listen to my brother.

Hmph, when have you ever not said that?

Parents cry poverty

Aren't you soft-hearted again?

I'm also making changes.

I heard from people that my third uncle used to be the most diligent and obedient.

In the end, he almost ended up with nothing.

Being soft-hearted doesn't mean I'm stupid.

Last night our family spent 40 taels.

40 taels

You may need to lie down for a long time after breastfeeding.

40 taels is just the beginning.

The family's savings are almost gone.

What about my marriage?

Get married soon

Just say it's for the baby to have a happy occasion.

There's a shortage of people to do the work at home.

You get married

My brother and I argued about dividing the family property.

This time I'll really listen to you.

Dad, what are you doing?

I was eating, let me go!

You still know I'm your father

ah

Dad, I was wrong

I admit I was wrong, okay?

Push your bird, push your mother

I'll teach you a lesson today if I don't straighten out your rebellious spirit.

Mother, come help me!

Help! Someone's been killed!

That's enough, boss.

It's enough that the child knows he/she is wrong.

He's still young, so we'll teach him slowly.

He was still young and pushed his mother and nurse all night.

Parents, I was wrong

Is it not enough for me to kowtow to Grandma and apologize?

You know you've gotten yourself into this mess

How much did the family spend?

There's a third uncle.

Uncle is so rich

Why is it our turn to pay?

Because she is my mother

You were the one who knocked him down.

Our family contributed 40 taels.

All family assets

40 taels, Dad, you're crazy!

The breasts are all paralyzed

What's the point of treating it if it can't be cured?

At such an old age

What's the difference between going or not going?

Heartless bastard

You all bully me

3 pillars, 3 pillars, come back!

Little Rain, what will happen to Grandma in the future?

Is it really possible to lie down until death?

Grandma, don't worry, all three sons are here.

No one dares to ignore you

But Huang alone cannot do it.

You can buy two people later and then add her.

Three-person rotation

This is good.

Before the new servants arrived

The three companies will take turns.

Today, the Great Lady

Tomorrow, two daughters

The day after tomorrow, our three parties

One family a day

Listen to you

Madam, it's your turn to take care of the Old Madam today.

I

Why me?

The third son's family had so many servants

The old lady herself agreed.

It's my turn to cook for my mother tomorrow morning.

It seems the head of the household won't be able to continue his business for a while.

Working in the fields

Mother's medicine money

Sanzhuzi's mess

The two sons are arguing about dividing the family property.

I guessed it long ago

See? There will be lots of troubles to come.

Mother, I'm here.

Today I will serve you

I'm so thirsty, I need to get some water.

Go outside and pick a reed.

Xiaoyu said I could suck it up.

Feeding someone spoonful by spoonful is too much trouble

Okay, I'll go.

The doctor said that the hands and feet shouldn't be left unused.

Rub it for me.

Massage me for one hour every day from now on.

Daughter, two younger siblings

The day after tomorrow, my three younger brothers and sisters-in-law

Didn't we agree to take turns?

Okay, I know.

You all think I'm a burden.

None of them wanted to serve them.

Where did Mom go?

We all wish we could serve you!

I'm hungry, so I'll cook.

Remember what I can eat now

knew

I'll take a nap after I finish eating.

You'll be home for an hour.

I also ate my lunch.

Mom, I'm going home to eat.

Why do you still want to eat my food?

You can eat if you want, just pay.

The grain that the third brother brought was in quantities equal to those of me and Huang.

You guys are eating like starving ghosts.

If you eat it all, I'll be left to starve.

Why are you back?

Mother is in great pain

Please be more tolerant of my temper.

I must serve you well today.

Your mother is asleep.

She told me to come back and eat my own food.

She said she'd charge for even a single bite of her food.

My butt didn't touch the chair for half a day.

Knead for an hour

My hands are almost broken.

Fortunately, it only takes three days to turn.

Serving like this every day

I have to die before him.

Mother, a doctor will come tomorrow.

There will be more the day after tomorrow.

I also sent people to the prefectural city to find better ones.

Third son, Mother only found out now.

You're the one who truly cares about your mother.

Did Sanzhuzi come to admit his mistake?

That wolf cub

He probably regrets not killing me.

Mother, you won't get better in a day or two.

Huang alone is not enough

I want to buy two more to serve you.

I've long felt we don't have enough people.

There's also the cost of food and groceries.

The previous allowances were not enough.

It needs to be recalculated.

Your older brothers don't have that much money.

elder brother copying books

There is land at home

Second brother sells vegetables

Harvesting vegetables and clearing land

Which one has no income?

Mother is currently lying down and unable to move.

Do I have to scrimp and save to save money for my two sons?

Starting next month

I will only issue the portions as originally agreed.

Third brother, what do you mean?

My point is just this:

Mother is the mother of the three brothers.

From now on, whether it's eating, drinking, buying people, or seeing a doctor...

The three brothers shouldered the burden together

Then call your eldest and second eldest brothers over.

Let's discuss it tonight.

Is Mother feeling any better?

It hurts, it keeps hurting.

The eldest daughter-in-law felt more comfortable when massaging.

My pain returned as soon as she stopped.

Since the older sister-in-law's massage is comfortable

Why not just let her come again tomorrow?

Tomorrow it's your wife's turn.

We agreed to take turns

Don't hide from any of them.

Don't argue.

I called you here late at night

There is important business.

Cough cough, it's not good to always have your wives watching over me.

Huang alone is not enough

She's a donkey.

You can't go without sleep every day.

Buy me two more capable people

daughter

One Huang is not enough

If you think it's too much, then have your wife come every day.

Whose fault is it that I'm lying like this?

daughter

Should we buy another one?

Why don't I deserve to be served by three people?

Don't worry about the chickens, pigs, or vegetable garden.

During the day, two people can even carry me to sunbathe.

You all just want me to rot in bed.

Buy two

I have no objection.

Third brother, go buy it.

Ask them for the silver

I'll let my mother use it the day after tomorrow.

My food expenses also need to be recalculated.

The food your third brother gave you isn't enough.

How

I only had one son, my third child.

You two are dead.

Why should he pay for everything?

Mother, we are poor.

Stop complaining about being poor

From now on, all food, drink, and other expenses will be accounted for.

Settle once a month

The three parties split the profits equally.

Each household receives 10 jin of white rice per month.

10 jin of white flour

Add 15 jin of whole grains.

Buy fish to see a doctor

All other expenses are recorded.

If you don't believe me, go ahead and check.

Mother has the final say

What about the second child?

I have no objection.

Listen to your mother

Once the matter is settled, everyone should return.

Second brother, you really should keep a closer eye on Sanzhu.

He caused trouble once

We all started taking out our money.

If this continues...

Sooner or later, he'll drag the whole family down with him.

Second son

You two are working yourselves to death.

The family is in such a mess

It's all for the sake of the three pillars.

You really need to think about it.

Is this child really worth it?

He wasn't like this before.

He probably learned bad habits from others at school.

The Master didn't like him either.

I was just thinking of moving him to another place.

You still blame the school

He pushed his grandmother

There wasn't a trace of regret in his mouth.

This was taught to me by someone else.

Um

You wretched child

You've almost driven the whole family apart.

Can you still sleep?

Ah, let me go!

Why did you hit me again?

Stop hitting the child, didn't you already admit your mistake?

Look at his eyes.

Does it seem like you know you're wrong?

Teach slowly

Mother was lying on the kang (heated brick bed) because of him

Now we need to buy two more people to serve us.

White rice and white flour

Seeing a doctor and taking medicine

Three parties share equally

I also want to go to the county town.

Forget about it, it's all gone.

What does this have to do with me?

Um

ah

ah

They're just bullying us.

The mother-in-law also sided with the third son in bullying others.

Stop talking, we're in the wrong.

Who told Sanzhuzi to be so disappointing?

A paralyzed old woman

They're so particular about food and drink.

Tomorrow it will be your turn to serve your mother.

Go to bed early

Dad, there will definitely be a lot of people coming to see Grandma tomorrow.

We all have to keep watch.

Your grandma loves lively atmospheres.

I'm sure I'll be in a good mood tomorrow.

It still hurts a lot today.

They say it hurts, but it doesn't seem to bother me.

He speaks with great force when he curses.

You're so poor.

Sanzhuzi hasn't gone to admit his mistake yet.

No

He's not just a little naughty.

Swearing while pushing breast milk

Threatening servants

He won't listen to anyone now.

Later, I really took advantage of my third uncle being a scholar.

The Zhao family, despite their wealth, engaged in wrongdoing.

The trouble will fall on our shoulders again.

Dad took advantage of the fact that this matter was still hot

Cut ties with Sanzhuzi

Severing ties

Father's severance of ties cannot be delayed

Bring it up again once it's cooled down

On the contrary, it's troublesome

Everyone will go see your grandma tomorrow.

Someone will definitely criticize Sanzhuzi.

Instead, they took the opportunity to make their point clear.

Cut the Gordian knot

By the way, a letter came from the Qian family.

Pear Blossom's engagement is in 15 days.

That needs to be dealt with even more quickly.

Even if the sky falls, it can't delay Pear Blossom's engagement.

Everyone says I have a hard life.

How can I not feel sad?

Mom, I've finished feeding the pigs

I arrived after cleaning up the house.

I've been waiting for you so long I'm starving!

The third son's wife came to take care of him, and I'm still an eyesore to you?

The second son's family

Today it's your turn

It's inappropriate for you to arrive so late.

There are also three pillars.

Push the milk like this

He hasn't even shown his face yet.

Three pillars are really not good.

breastfeeding in bed

He also wandered around the village.

More than

He was causing trouble at my house just two days ago.

They called my servants dogs and lackeys.

They even said they would teach them a lesson.

He really dares to be so arrogant.

He's only 18 years old.

He dared to do this at just 18 years old

What will happen in the future?

I saw him on the way here just now.

When asked why he didn't come to see the milk,

He blurted out that it was none of his business to serve that old hag.

He really said that?

Several people heard it

I don't want this kind of nephew.

Third brother, what did you just say?

I said I would no longer acknowledge Sanzhuzi as my nephew.

Just let the child make a mistake

You're about to sever ties with your family.

He's still young and doesn't understand.

Push the breastfeeding spell breastfeeding

He scolded the servants for using the Zhao family's name to show off their power.

This is called a slight mistake.

Third brother

My mind is made up.

If my second brother thinks I've gone too far...

Then let's both break off our engagements.

Third brother

Children should always be given a chance to correct their mistakes.

He said a few nonsense words in the heat of the moment.

You can't condemn someone outright.

Second brother, I've thought it through.

Mother, please persuade the third son not to...

Mother, don't try to persuade me yet.

Do you know about Sanzhuzi yesterday?

What do people outside say about you?

How to say

He said you'd be better off dead if you were paralyzed.

What's the big deal if you're too old to move?

They even complained that you spent their family's money on your medical treatment.

he

He said he wanted me to die.

You even called me an old hag in my house.

Curse his mother to die

He keeps saying he wants to kill my servants.

Save my ass

What hope is there for this beast?

My life is over.

Mom, he just has a bad mouth.

He didn't really think that way.

Shut up, it's because you and your husband spoiled her.

I told you not to spoil her.

If you don't listen, what kind of thing will you raise now?

daughter

The third one should break it quickly.

To avoid him causing trouble and implicating you later.

Son listens to mother

I'm also preparing to break off my relationship with Sanzhuzi, my second brother.

Big brother, even you came.

This kind of child

They dare to cause any trouble.

I have two sons

Don't suffer bad luck with him.

Good!

One or two of them think I'm poor.

You think my family is a burden to you, right?

Cut it off whenever you want

I am a paralyzed old woman

Anyway, I can't control you anymore.

Xiao Lei

Uncle Zhao

Go and invite the clan chief.

Since you've said it's over...

Cut it off completely today.

Laifu has grown taller again.

Are you not engaged yet?

My daughter and he are a perfect match.

My niece is even more beautiful.

Grandpa, take a look.

Everyone be quiet

I came to see a doctor today.

Don't talk about marriage

No rush to get married

Let's talk about it later.

Since the uncle and the grandmother have both agreed...

Then we'll proceed according to the rules.

Only Sanzhuzi himself came to press his handprint.

I need to find someone to get things done today.

Sanzhuzi is looking for you at home.

Come up quickly

Go to the side

Catching fish

Stop fooling around, the clan leader is waiting for you.

Let go of my fish

Son, why are you tied up like that? Aren't you cold?

We called him back.

He had people beat and verbally abuse us.

They only tied him up because they had no other choice.

Third Uncle

Shut up!

Go change your clothes first

go out

Do you know why I called you back today?

What else can it do?

Grandma wants me to apologize again.

Your eldest uncle and your third uncle want to sever ties with you.

What did you say?

No, Uncle San absolutely cannot break off relations with me.

Your breasts are so numb from being pushed that they can't move.

Do you realize your mistake?

I was wrong; I was just angry that day.

Who knew you'd be so useless?

It would fall over with a push

I heard you now have three people serving you.

Eating white rice and white flour

I wish I had such a good life.

I also want to lie on the kang (heated brick bed) every day.

Get out of here!

Do you know that your eldest uncle and third uncle want to sever ties with you?

Uncle, you can't abandon me.

I will take care of you in the future.

I've always wanted to be your son.

release

If Sister Xiaoyu can't have a son in the future...

I'll have many children when I grow up and give one to you.

Uncle, you're my closest relative!

Your uncle also wants to cut ties with you.

Uncle cut it off

What a filial nephew!

Look carefully

You're not reluctant to leave your loved ones.

You can't bear to part with my rich and powerful third uncle.

Anyway, I won't break up with you.

Death never stops

Since the decision has been made

I wrote a letter severing ties with my family.

Three Pillars

Grab him

open

Tathagata Palm

What right do you have to hit me?

Wasn't the plan to sever ties with relatives?

It hasn't stopped yet.

I am still your third uncle.

Once it's over, whether you live or die is none of my business.

But listen to me clearly.

Daring to commit arson, harm people, and do evil

I'll still personally escort you to the county government office.

I won't press it, I won't press it.

Who dares to press me?

I'm not done with anyone

Third brother, you can't treat the children like this.

Press and hold without pressing

I don't want you all to bully me.

Starting today

Zhao Dashu, Zhao Dawen, and Sanzhuzi severed ties.

From now on, we will have nothing to do with each other.

Zhao Dashu, are you my third uncle?

You are all bad people

You just watch them like that.

Sanzhuzi, don't say anything more.

Shut your ass!

You all wait.

Hurry up and remember not to provoke rabid dogs on the street.

We really can't let Dayong be allowed to run wild like this anymore.

If we don't stop now, we'll really cause a huge disaster later.

Go out, go out

I'll remember you all.

Second son

I tell you

I won't have this grandson anymore.

Mother, he just got angry and said hurtful things, but he didn't mean any harm.

He said those angry words, hoping I would die, clan leader.

I broke off the relationship with him too.

He won't be my grandson anymore.

Third Master

I want to go to school in the county town.

I won't study anymore.

Stay at home and do chores

No, you promised me before.

Your breasts were injured by you.

The family's money has long been spent.

I also want to go to the county town.

Where does the money come from?

Can't you keep earning?

So the whole family should revolve around you, right?

brute

You dare hit me?

I tell you

Don't expect me to pay for your education anymore.

I want to go to the county town

Earn your own money

I'm not done with you for the rest of my life.

Stop! You two are insane!

Perhaps the head of the household should stop him from reading?

Stay home to do chores

We'll teach you slowly.

At least one family can still make a living.

Tuition fees have all been paid

After all these years

What did you say?

Brothers are heartbroken

Milk will also offend you to death

He didn't listen to a single word the Master said.

Sometimes you really have to accept your fate.

I'll stop reading now.

If it really gets better in the future

The family has saved money again.

I would still like him to study again.

They still don't know how Sanzhuzi ended up like this.

Those good brothers didn't come easily.

My third uncle's family used to do all the work.

Their parents still don't care.

Not only regardless

Back then, my uncle even wanted to sell Xiaoyu.

Our family knows

That is, stand to the side and watch.

No wonder Uncle San stopped talking to us after he got rich.

That's why I can't separate the family.

My parents are now three pillars.

Who knows, we might have to clean up his mess again in the future.

But we don't have much money.

What's there to be afraid of if you don't have money?

My third uncle was penniless when he separated from his family back then.

As long as freedom

We're young, we can always earn money

Then this family must be divided.

The master has calculated it.

The wedding will take place in half a month.

The two children's birth dates are also compatible.

I always said it was fate.

A match made in heaven

Pear Blossom, why is your face so red?

Big sister, don't look at me.

What are your requirements regarding the old man's betrothal gifts?

Despite mention

I don't ask for money

I only ask for one thing.

You should take good care of Laifu from now on.

May the two children live a happy and harmonious life.

Pear Blossom, you chose Laifu today.

You must never betray him again, understand?

Grandpa Qian, rest assured

I will definitely treat Laifu Ge well.

After we get married

You've taken good care of yourself and are very healthy.

Within three years

I'll let you hold two.

Slow down, slow down

Don't you watch your mouth, young lady?

I didn't say anything wrong.

The old man is at ease.

From now on, I will treat Laifu as my own son.

Pear blossoms must dare to start something and then abandon it.

I kicked her out.

Recognize Laifu as your godson

Marry him a good one

Dad, I am your own daughter.

Even your own daughter shouldn't bully others.

The phrase "there is a big tree"

I'm relieved.

It's just that your mother is so badly injured.

Is it appropriate to get engaged now?

Why not?

Perfect for bringing good luck to my mother

Third Brother Xiaoyu

You've arrived.

Aunt

There are benches next to the wheat flowers.

What are you standing there for?

sit

What does Mom need? Tell me.

I know, go ahead and do your thing.

Why are the three brothers so intimidating now?

I didn't even dare to breathe too loudly when he was sitting here.

This is scary?

You haven't seen him when he's really angry.

I don't dare to provoke him now.

How come you've lost so much weight again?

The Ma family won't feed you.

There's a lot of housework.

I haven't stopped since I opened my eyes.

Da Bao is studying again

Money is needed everywhere

I can only save myself.

If the child really isn't cut out for studying

Don't launch a direct attack.

It gets more expensive the further you go.

No, Da Bao is very smart.

The Master praised him every day

He even helped me with chores when he got home.

Mother, I only have one son.

We'll sell everything we own to support them.

Mother, this is longan.

I heard it costs several taels of silver per pound.

Your third brother gave it to you, saying it would be good for your health.

Third brother is truly filial now.

I used to think that the most reliable person was the eldest brother.

In the end, it was still the third son who truly relied on him.

It's also your fault for going too far in the past.

None of them left themselves a way out.

Mother, I've suffered so much.

You really hit a nerve.

daughter

Taxes will be due again in the second half of the year.

I really can't come up with the money.

Why are you kneeling?

I'm going to tell you about what happened between you and Dad back then.

I sold the silver bracelet that was part of my dowry.

That was your dowry, how can you sell it?

What if we don't sell?

Children can't be without education!

Mother, you must live to be a hundred years old!

The old lady's purse

Only a biological daughter can always open it.

Hahaha

This trip was worthwhile.

Da Bao has received half a year's tuition fee.

Second sister-in-law, why are you going to see Mother empty-handed?

Mother is now in poor health.

We should send some nice gifts to make up for it.

I got out of bed

But you

Mother lay paralyzed on the kang (a heated brick bed).

You came empty-handed.

Before leaving, he also gave her some nourishing medicine.

Take all the chicken and grain.

This was given to me by my mother.

Hmph, all three families paid for these things.

You're coming back now to freeload?

Have you no shame?

Hahaha

Dad Laifu's family only has this one grandson

Will stay in our family from now on?

We must not mistreat others

How much do you want to give?

36 betrothal gifts

5,000 taels of silver

Give them 2/3 of the house and shop

become

It can't be displayed too conspicuously.

In recent years, whenever there has been an event involving donations of money and goods...

Just keep an eye on our account

These on the surface

Add privately

Or are you good at calculating?

Laifu likes doing business

Once they arrive in the prefectural city, we'll help them choose suitable shops.

Grandpa used to want Laifu to study more.

Not seeking fame or fortune

At least they can read and do math

It's good that everyone is going their own way.

Your mother is really paralyzed.

Who will serve you now?

Three servants took turns serving him

Kitchen Chicken Fish Meat

Longan and red dates are both available

The village doctor takes pulses every day

Three serve one

Third Brother even went to the prefectural city to fetch a doctor.

The county magistrate also helped by sending two

The county magistrate's doctor has arrived.

Could you also let us take a look?

Parents

The person was hired by Third Brother.

What did he invite?

Why won't you show it to your own relatives?

Third son, Mother only found out now.

I really wronged you before.

I need you

Now, lying in bed is probably just waiting to die.

Mom, you've always been good to me.

Just take good care of yourself, Grandma.

So many grandchildren

You and your daughter are the only ones you can truly rely on.

Mother has another piece of good news to share today.

Just in time to bring you good luck

Xiaoyu is pregnant.

Grandma, Xiao Lei and I have only been married for a few days.

The baby's brain got fuzzy from the fall.

Nonsense, nonsense.

Pear Blossom will be engaged in half a month.

What? How old is she?

Why are you acting recklessly again?

I need to set it up morning and night

She herself was willing.

I'll bring you good luck by doing this.

What's the rush?

Your family has two scholars.

Xiao Lei will move up the ranks later.

Pear Blossom finding a wealthy young man from the county town is considered too low.

Maybe we'll have to go to the prefectural city to choose.

daughter

I won't trade my daughter for social status.

Who told you to sell your daughter?

I wanted her to marry into a good family and enjoy a comfortable life.

Does being born into a wealthy family guarantee a life of luxury?

Always putting on a smile

Serving one's parents-in-law

Socializing for her husband

Liu Hua couldn't live through those days.

My daughter is eating well.

Sleeping soundly and living freely

Better than any social class

So, which young master in the county town have you taken a fancy to?

Qian Jia Qian Laifu

Qian Laifu

Pear Blossom offended you

Didn't you used to cherish her the most?

Lai Fu is capable

Filial piety and good character

He has managed the Qian family affairs very well over the past few years.

Third brother, you've been drinking today.

I don't drink during the day.

Did you hurt your brain when you went out?

Mom, I'm serious.

He is a good son-in-law to the villagers.

But you are now a scholar.

Xiao Lei is still at home.

We need to broaden our horizons.

Qian Laifu is not good enough for Li Hua

Our family is choosing a son-in-law.

Regardless of net worth

Judging by character

No, I don't agree to this marriage.

daughter

I'm here today to inform you.

I'm not discussing this with you.

You're going to make me so angry!

Wait, Qian Laifu didn't marry Lihua.

He also wants to stay at your house.

Yes, I can't bear to see my daughter suffer after marriage.

I'm looking for someone to help me during this light rain.

Pear Blossom has recruited another one.

Why did you hire so many sons-in-law?

Who will get the house in the future?

From now on, Xiaoyu will be in charge of the family.

She would be given her share of the property she was entitled to.

The two children live on their own

What about the only son of the Qian family?

I don't even want my surname anymore.

Who said no?

The child will have the surname Qian.

A man surnamed Zhao

Grandpa Qian also moved in with us.

It's lively with lots of people

I can have another fishing and drinking companion.

What kind of door-to-door service is this?

Our family is willing

Xiaoyu, you just let your dad do whatever he wants.

It's nice that the pear blossoms don't need to leave home.

We sisters don't need to be separated.

The third child truly loves his children.

Clearly capable of climbing high gates

I just can't bear to see my daughter suffer even the slightest grievance.

Ruxin's mother's goodness

The old man and the third son are probably right.

Look at that house, so many people are united!

My God

How much jewelry have we bought over the years?

Pear Blossom is young

Choose a more lively one

Don't press down like an old lady.

Still picking and choosing after 10 sets?

For now, we'll only be making wedding dresses tomorrow.

No need to buy jewelry anymore

Grandma, I only heard you were injured yesterday, I'm late.

Just in time

I'll have to come again in a few days.

Your third uncle's family is having a wedding banquet.

What happy occasion is it that someone is getting married?

Pear Blossom is getting engaged

Is it still a county town or a prefectural town this early?

Which young master

Neither

Grandson of Old Man Qian from our village

Qian Laifu

Oh my god

Your third uncle said

High-class families have many rules

His daughter can live however she wants.

He can afford to support him for a lifetime.

Uncle San really dared to do that.

He also said that when choosing a son-in-law, he only considers character.

Ignoring family background

The in-laws really don't care about family background.

Don't watch

Qian Laifu was just another villager who went out to do business.

The marriage was already arranged.

They got engaged in a little over ten days.

Something big is happening in our family.

Mother, what are you planning to do now?

Send your brother-in-law to the Zhao family.

Didn't your third uncle say he only looks at character, not family background?

Our home is just right

The three uncles and aunts have all chosen Qian Laifu.

Can this still be exchanged?

Can be exchanged before marriage?

Besides, your brother-in-law can also come over.

Qian Laifu is a good businessman; he owns shops and houses.

He is also good-looking

Zhao Di, you're looking down on your own family.

It's not that I look down on you.

My third uncle's family has no shortage of people to do the work.

As long as your brother-in-law enters the Zhao family

We can move there in the future.

You and Pear Blossom are sisters-in-law

I have daily contact with your third uncle's family.

What a great thing!

You still want to move your whole family there?

Even old man Qian can live here

Why can't we?

Then the whole family can enjoy the blessings together.

Such good in-laws

Don't even mention the son coming to visit.

Pack it up and send it to the Zhao family.

Mother, that's absolutely impossible.

Brother, don't forget

You are now a member of the Lin family.

Your third uncle is your biological uncle.

You can't even help your family with this little thing?

I usually ask you to get along well with Xiaoyu Lihua.

You just don't get it

Get close to her early on.

How could such a good marriage be possible for the Qian family?

They don't like me at all.

What can I do?

Stop talking nonsense and go back to your parents' home.

Go ask in person

Tell your third uncle

Our son can also come to our house.

How am I supposed to bring this up?

What happened? Did the Lin family bully you?

Your son-in-law hit you

They're forcing me to come back and arrange a marriage for my brother-in-law.

She talked about me half the night last night

They kicked me out this morning without even letting me eat breakfast.

They've gone mad.

Even their youngest son dares to dream of pear blossoms.

I said it was impossible

Their whole family cursed at me.

Saying I'm not a member of the Lin family

He said I wouldn't have a relationship with Yu Xiaoyu and Lihua.

That's a really big face.

Don't you know what you're like?

Mother, why don't you come with me?

I really don't dare to speak up alone.

I don't

You are my mother

What happened to my mother?

Knowing full well that going to their door would result in being scolded

I'll still be a fool with you.

If you really want to go find your third aunt or Xiaoyu

Don't run directly into your third uncle's line of fire.

Pear Blossom's father has something important to tell you now.

Dad, you said

Stop grinning.

Our family doesn't actually need two sons-in-law who live with us.

Liu Laifu did it because he couldn't bear to see you suffer.

I know my dad loves me the most.

After this engagement

Everything that belongs to you will be clearly listed.

Almost half of the family's assets

Enough for you to live comfortably for several lifetimes.

Thank you, Mom and Dad.

Thank you, elder sister.

But you must remember

The true head of the Zhao family is your eldest sister.

The real live-in son-in-law is Xiao Lei

I know, I know

I don't want to be in charge.

I'm so tired, I just want to be a rich and leisurely person.

So wait until you get married in the future.

You and Laifude should move out.

Didn't you say you couldn't bear to part with me, that's why you let Laifu stay?

I can't bear to part with you

It doesn't mean the two families will always live under one roof.

You and your older sister have no conflict.

This does not mean that the two sons-in-law have no conflicts.

There is no conflict between the four of you.

This doesn't mean there won't be conflicts with the children in the future.

But our family has always lived here perfectly well.

Being unmarried and being married are different.

Now let's clarify the accounts and family property.

In the future, everyone will actually become closer.

We really can't live together

cannot

Dad, you're going a bit too far.

Dad, let's make this clear now.

To avoid future disputes

I'm not the kind of person who would abandon family for money.

Because we know

Now is the best time for our relationship

Establish the rules first

After Pear Blossom got married, it was just the two of them living their lives together.

Your affair with Laifu

You need to discuss it yourselves.

We can't rely on Sister Bian Niang for everything.

I just want us all to live together forever.

Now sisters

This does not mean that the two sons-in-law will be born in the future.

The two families' children never had any conflicts.

Separate money early

Only then can the relationship last.

Parents are right

This is what I'm giving you.

What's mine will be mine from now on.

No one needs to worry about anyone else.

Okay, then I'll come back for meals often from now on.

It's up to you.

I can come back every day.

Grandpa, look at how energetic I am!

I want a set of spiritual principles too.

here we go again

Who is the betrothed?

Even the main characters don't have as much trouble as those two.

Will Grandpa still buy it?

I'm not buying anything, I'm just going home for dinner.

Lai Fu looks quite good in red.

You look good too.

Third Uncle and Third Aunt

Third Aunt, may I speak with you alone for a few minutes?

With me

Give me some space

I'll listen too.

What do you want from me?

It's about pear blossoms.

Pear blossoms have begged you.

My mother-in-law especially likes pear blossoms.

I just felt that she and my brother-in-law were a good age match.

If you can't bear to see Pear Blossom get married...

My brother-in-law can also marry into the family.

What did you say?

What about your in-laws is good enough for my daughter?

He is diligent and honest

Every servant in our household is diligent and honest.

see a visitor out

Zhao Di

This is what your parents wanted.

So the Lin family was already calculating last night.

How much silver can I get if I marry Pear Blossom?

They'll be moving to my farm from now on.

Or move to the county seat or the prefectural seat?

Hmph, you've miscalculated.

Their whole family is only good enough for someone like you.

Third Uncle

It sounds awful.

If you don't like it, don't come.

From now on, your in-laws should never set foot in my Zhao family's house again.

snort

They really treat me like a walking money bag.

Want to eat farts

Your third uncle scolded you out.

He also said he wouldn't let me into the house anymore.

Just how noble is his family?

They're just more noble than us.

Your third brother has been forced to sever ties with his family.

What are you, a married niece?

Sanzhuzi was truly broken.

What can be done now that things have escalated to this point?

daughter

Then you should stop worrying about Sanzhuzi.

Keep throwing money at him

This will only make Da Zhuzi and Er Zhuzi hate you even more.

Babies, thank you all for liking to dress up as a peasant girl.

Raising kids and farming is incredibly fun and exciting!

The next season is currently in rapid production.

More exciting things to come!

Remember to click to make an appointment

Add to favorites!

So much has already been spent

Giving up now would have been a complete waste of time.

You can continue to spend

They'll only lose more.

Your brother is still young.

Mother, how many times do you have to tell him he's still young?

What child would dare to push their own mother to the point of crippling her?

Even after finishing, I still don't know I made a mistake.

He's not small, he's bad.

Big Pillar is also petty.

Otherwise why would they always cause trouble?

What if it were you?

All the good food and clothes in the family are given to one younger brother.

How can you not hate?

Big Pillar and Second Pillar haven't had new clothes made in years.

Does Sanzhuzi deserve to wear two outfits in a year?

Mother is biased, so be it.

We have to admit that you'll really have to rely on your son when you get old.

Don't drive the other two out of business too.

Zhao Di

You seem to have really grown up.

Can you stay young after getting married?

Rika Teijin

The Lin family doesn't need to come.

We will not associate with them anymore.

Lin family (crossed out, no invitation)

People I know in the county town also notified me.

Let the happy occasion be lively

So many people are coming to my engagement banquet.

Of course, my daughter's engagement must be a grand and lively affair!

Three pillars?

It's not about telling him to study at home.

They went out to play again.

I really can't control the head of the household.

Maybe we shouldn't let him read it?

Don't say things like that again.

It was our fault for not managing it well before.

From now on, I will personally oversee this.

I will teach you personally.

The day after tomorrow I will take him to see the Master.

I teach people how to be good.

Both sides exert force

I refuse to believe we can't turn things around.

But now he

The more others say he's no good

The more I can't give up

This is my son

He will definitely pull through.

Dayong's family is not at home

What's wrong?

The teacher wants you to go to the school tomorrow.

Bring Sanzhuzi's things back.

By the way, I'll refund the remaining tree hearts to you.

What does it mean to bring it back?

Confucius said he would not accept unfilial disciples.

Is there a misunderstanding?

When did my son become unfilial?

I have delivered the message.

Go ask the Master yourselves tomorrow.

The family's school no longer needs three pillars.

What did you say?

Confucius said that an uneducated, unfilial, and unruly person

Let us go move our things and return the tuition fees.

That's nonsense! I'll go find the Master tomorrow and argue with him.

The news that her mother had been crippled by Sanzhu had already spread.

The village knows

School Knows

The whole county probably knows.

ah

how so

I am not reconciled

How did things get to this point?

Forget it, let's just live a more stable life from now on.

Is it possible to save money to build houses for three sons?

I'm tired, let me rest.

I want to go to school in the county town.

I won't study anymore.

Stay at home and do chores

No, you promised me before.

Your breasts were injured by you.

The family's money has long been spent.

I also want to go to the county town.

Where does the money come from?

Can't you keep earning?

So the whole family should revolve around you, right?

brute

You dare hit me?

I tell you

Don't expect me to pay for your education anymore.

I want to go to the county town

Earn your own money

I'm not done with you for the rest of my life.

What are you doing here?

Milk

I heard you took 40 taels from our family.

When did I take your money?

Give me back the 40 taels.

Sanzhuzi, someone come here.

Hey ha hey ha

Hey ha

Second Uncle and Third Pillar went to the old lady's place to rob her of silver.

Breech presentation

Mom, why are you lying like this?

I'll help you up.

Don't touch me

Do you and your son both want to kill me?

I just ran into a doctor specializing in old injuries.

No one can move before we arrive.

Sanzhen Wenzun is like a mad dog

Grab me and shake me desperately

Even kicking the royal family

The bracelet was stolen.

They even forcibly pulled the earrings.

Look at this.

He almost ripped my ears off.

Mother, it was I who told him to stop going to school tonight.

He couldn't figure it out for a moment.

Not intentional

Not intentional

So I deserve it?

You get out of here too!

Mother, that's not what I meant. You tell me.

His personality has changed so much lately.

Will it get contaminated with something unclean?

If you shut up, he's a born bad guy.

Don't use ghosts and gods as an excuse

Go to the school and ask him what he usually does.

You'll know.

If you ask him again, he might not even dare to commit murder or arson in the future.

Sanzhuzi has severed ties with you.

His affairs are none of your business.

I don't care if he dies.

But it's unacceptable if he hurts my mother.

Sanzhuzi ran away

It's so dark.

Should we find someone first?

Don't worry about having money and food; you won't starve.

One more thing

This time, the money for Mother's medicine

You second wives should pay for it yourselves.

The 40 taels from last time haven't been spent yet.

Last time was last time

Your son has caused trouble again.

For those who have severed ties

I have no obligation to clean up his mess.

Okay, I'll take responsibility for the trouble my son caused.

If I can't afford it, I, Zhao Dayong, will sell my land and my body.

Are you satisfied now?

Second Brother who sold himself into servitude

You think too highly of yourself.

Parents and grandparents used to be able to run and walk a lot.

Now I can only look at four walls all day.

Sanzhuzi has harmed people like this.

You still protect him

What do you want to say?

Would you dare keep a son like this?

I don't want this kind of brother anymore, starting today.

I severed ties with the three masters.

I don't want this younger brother either.

If you don't want to stay, then get out.

Get the hell out of here!

From now on, you'll live with those three jars.

The old lady was getting old.

It can't withstand any more disruption.

You must rest

Do not touch the injured area again.

Third brother, this room isn't safe.

Four women couldn't control Sanzhuzi

I need a strong man to guard the gate.

daughter

There are already three people serving in the yard, why buy more?

Not to serve me

It's to protect your son.

Second Brother looked out over the whole village

Mother only needs to guard against the three beads now.

Mother, you're going to force me to my death.

Then you should compensate me for the bracelet and earrings.

Even if you want money, I'll compensate you.

If he doesn't pay, I'll go to the authorities and sue him.

Third brother, can I sue someone while I'm lying down?

Can I hand it over to the magistrate for you?

There's only a little over two ounces left at home.

Give me time

I win or I lose.

The eldest and third brothers both heard it.

My second son owes me money.

I heard

Before the three pillars sell the jewelry

Find it quickly

Big Pillar and Second Pillar search together

Just looking for things

Don't blame us for his messy affairs later.

Go to school for no reason

How can it get worse the more you read it?

There are bad kids in school too.

Some people praised him and helped him get involved.

He doesn't have to work.

Can still show off its power

Naturally, I think I'm very capable.

Actually, all of my second uncle's sons have one problem.

Always wanting to get something for nothing

They used to fight to come into our house

Isn't it because they think they can get rich by following us?

Good days

And you don't have to do any work

How do you know so much?

quack quack

This little brat's little thoughts

What's so hard to understand?

Want to live a wealthy life by relying on others

They're dreaming.

Call the third brother out.

Ask another dozen or so people to help me find Sanzhuzi.

Second Master, my master is already asleep.

Without the master's orders

We can't go out

Then wake Uncle Zhao up.

The old man is resting.

ah

Brother Fang, thank you for taking me in.

After I sell the silver bracelet

I'll treat you to something nice.

You are young

Don't let yourself be fooled.

Big brother will accompany you to the county town

If I don't trust you, who else can I trust?

All seven taels and one mace are here

If you don't believe me, go in and ask.

What is Brother Fang saying?

We are brothers

How could I not believe you?

Brother, I'll treat you to a meal.

Don't waste money, just eat a bowl of noodles and buy two steamed buns.

Money must be saved

Brother Fang really cares about me.

This is so shabby!

It's conspicuous for a child to live in such a nice place.

Your parents definitely won't find this place.

Brother Fang is very thoughtful.

The county town is so big

Where can I find it?

Didn't my second brother always say he was smart and capable?

That's definitely fine.

When the money is all spent

It will come back naturally.

Dad, you're driving your second uncle crazy!

He is an unfilial son.

I won't take the blame for this.

Having such a rich third uncle

Can't even handle this little thing

Zhao Di

Why don't you go to your third uncle's house again?

They kicked me out when I went there.

The Qian family owned a house, servants, and a mule cart.

As far as I know, there are only three shops in Qianlaifu County.

Do you really think Uncle Three just grabbed anyone and gave them to Pear Blossom?

The Qian family is so good

Why are they still willing to come to my door?

The Qian family's most difficult time

It was Uncle San who led them to make money.

Their friendship of decades

What does your little brother have to compare to?

Pear Blossom's engagement invitation still hasn't arrived.

If we keep causing trouble, we won't even be able to be relatives anymore.

My parents were robbed in the county town.

All the silver is gone

Quickly report this to the authorities and have the thief caught!

Who hit you?

The masked thief robbed me of all the remaining silver.

Where did you get the money?

Milk bracelets and earrings

I pawned it.

You really dare to do that?

Hey ha

son of a bitch

You dare hit the old man?

Hey ha

Who are you calling "I"?

Zhao Dayong, what right do you have to hit me?

Zhao Dashu can make a lot of money

Zhao Dawen can also earn money from you.

Poor

Sanzhu shut up.

If I were you, I would have died long ago.

I must have been blind to have been born into your family.

good

I am not worthy to be your father

You shouldn't be my son either.

Okay, give me the money.

If I had money, I would never come back.

Who cares about this broken-down house?

roll

He's still too young to be the head of the household.

Just pretend he died outside.

We will only have two sons from now on.

Luckily we left quickly last night.

A few days later

That spendthrift son can squander all the money.

He spent almost two ounces in just two days.

This money is enough to repair the house.

That's enough for you to talk about your wife.

Brother Chen, I've come to find you.

I've had a complete falling out with my family.

I will not go back to the Zhao family.

I'll live here and hang out with you.

Brothers just argue, right?

Go back and apologize immediately.

Chen Feng, get in here!

Sanzhu, please don't come and bother my son again.

Your parents are rich.

Our family can't afford to support you.

What does that mean?

I'm sorry, brother.

My parents said they'd play with you again.

They broke my legs.

Please, dear readers, help me by adding this to your favorites!

Please follow me!

If this continues, there won't be any rice left to cook.

Our film crew is about to disband.

Also loyal

Righteousness can be eaten as food

Get out of bed tomorrow!

The Three Pillars Brothers really can't help you.

I came to see my grandma.

The old lady instructed

You are never allowed to enter this door again.

To go or not to go

I absolutely will not go back.

Why haven't they come begging to me yet?

If you come to ask

I can barely go back.

Should I go find him, sir?

If you don't teach him a lesson, he'll be completely ruined.

I'm going to school tomorrow

Return the bound body that can be removed.

The books were also brought back.

What about the money from Mother's side?

If all else fails

Selling land to pay off debts

I'm back

When I got back, the water tank was almost empty.

Why should I do the work?

Don't do

Let's do it!

I won't go to school anymore.

Working at home

I'll get you a wife in a few years.

Lao Tzu has gone to this extent

I'm worthy of you

I can't attend the banquet.

Why are you buying me new clothes?

Pear Blossom's engagement is a joyous occasion.

You should definitely wear new ones.

I'll set up a separate table for you tomorrow.

Aside from fatty meat and overly sweet pastries

Eat as much as you want.

This is what it means to live a fulfilling life.

Drink soup every day

My mouth is practically tasteless.

master

Zhao Di, the young lady, has arrived.

What's he doing here again?

They also wanted to arrange a marriage for the Lin family.

Let him in

Let's make this clear today.

It's better than the Lin family coming directly tomorrow.

Kosame Asuka Sada

Can I come?

You're Pear Blossom's cousin, you can come.

But other members of the Lin family

None of them can come.

Can we do this one last time?

My mother-in-law loves lively atmospheres.

They couldn't have come before just to save face for you.

But we've never had any contact with the Lin family.

They, however, always took it for granted that they were freeloading.

Cousin, I won't beat around the bush.

Your in-laws are too snobbish.

I don't like it.

I see

I'll go back and tell you.

The mother, three brothers, and younger brother really stopped studying.

After I stop studying, I'll work and get married.

As long as it's enough to get by.

Mom and Dad, you should take it easy from now on.

Don't push him too far.

Don't scare me.

I didn't scare you.

He's really scary now.

Why

Your younger brother has already gone to see the clan chief.

They insisted on separating.

Your dad was so angry he almost cut ties with him.

Then let's split it.

The family is on guard against each other every day

What's the point of forcibly bundling them together?

That's what I think too.

Waiting for Erzhuzi to get married

He can break up if he wants.

The same applies to Sanzhuzi afterward.

Mom, stop arguing.

Each goes their own way

It might actually be quieter.

The scholar's wife has such excellent skills.

Egg Treasure

Even better looking than bright red and bright green

Big sister, am I pretty?

You look amazing today! You're the most dazzling girl in the whole village!

I'm a village beauty even without dressing up

Yes, yes, Zhao Village Flower is the best in the world.

When the auspicious time arrives, everyone should come out.

So many things

Is this an engagement or a wedding?

If I had known, why would Zhao Laosan have sought help from the villagers?

My son can come to our house too.

So beautiful

Grandpa Qian, this is the betrothal gift list. Please take a look.

I feel at ease with Laifu following you guys from now on.

Grandpa Qian from today onwards

We are now family.

We're family, hahaha

The Qian family's banquet was incredibly lavish.

In the future, whenever any family holds a wedding...

How can it compare to this?

never mind

Don't compare yourself to the third family.

It's still more comfortable to eat at a banquet.

The most enjoyable thing in life is eating and drinking.

The old lady ate quite a lot yesterday.

Pear Blossom Filial Piety

Big trees are more filial

In this life, I've always relied on my third brother the most.

Mother, I've come to tell you something.

After we finished packing, we headed to the prefectural city.

What? You want to leave?

Let Xiao Lei go to school.

You don't read

You can't stay in the village.

Unsuccessful

Xiaoyu also went

I don't trust her.

Your daughter is not someone to be bullied.

It's your mother who can't move right now.

You have four people to take care of you

There were also strong men guarding the gate.

With grain and money

If you feel truly wronged, have the village chief deliver a letter.

I'll come back and deal with them.

Then I'll go with you.

No, you can't even turn over now.

We also took a car to the prefectural city.

I don't care about my life.

Wow

ah

Ultimately, it's because they find me annoying.

I was unfamiliar with the city.

You don't even have anyone to talk to.

In the village, you can call whoever you want.

A scholar is not enough

Your family isn't short of money.

It wouldn't work for Xiao Lei to hire a tutor at home.

Taking the imperial examination online is different.

Ordinary teachers cannot teach

Fucheng Academy has truly outstanding teachers.

I heard that he used to be a top-ranking farmer.

Anyway, you're determined to leave.

Mother, you're here.

I will definitely come back often.

I will make sure you are well taken care of before I leave.

But there is one thing

Don't give money to everyone who complains about being poor in the future.

Who can I give it to?

You know what you're doing.

Medical expenses and personal savings

Cover them all up tightly.

I gave it to someone else today.

If you fall ill again tomorrow

Who will pay for it for you?

This is my life-saving money.

No matter who cries, it won't matter from now on.

My money

My mother held it herself.

That's right.

Mom and Second Brother, have you returned the money for your bracelet?

Not a single penny was seen

He said he would pay it back slowly as he earned more money in the future.

But I heard that Sanzhuzi's tuition fees have been refunded.

The second brother was even planning to arrange a marriage for Erzhuzi.

Money to marry a wife

I don't have money to pay my mother back.

My second brother shouldn't be the type to renege on his debts.

He's utterly inhuman when it comes to defaulting on debts.

Go and call Zhao Dayong to me.

Mom is feeling unwell

hey-hey

What about the tuition fees that Sanzhuzi withdrew?

Not many

There should always be some money left at home to buy salt and oil, right?

I'm having the hardest time among my brothers right now.

Nannan, you still want to marry Erzhuzi?

Give me 500 coins today.

The pension will continue to be paid every month.

I'll pay another 200 coins.

Until the money for the jewelry is paid off

I am your biological son

Even your own son needs to be accountable.

The money was spent by your son.

Go find him if you're not satisfied.

Second brother, you don't need to perform such a grand ceremony.

Shop accounts handed over

The farm's autumn harvest continues as usual.

We only bring things we'll need for the next few years.

Leave the rest here.

Bring more clothes and jewelry

You should also stock up on heatstroke prevention medicine.

Give away any clothes and fabrics you don't need.

Give what you can to the people in the village

The rest were donated

This is what you call traveling light?

Xiao Lei's book is just one car

At least 6 vehicles of bedding and cotton clothing

Five or six more vehicles were needed.

Plus the Qian family

At least nearly 20 vehicles

20 vehicles

Are we moving house or half a village?

You need to bring cured meat and dried goods.

Bring a few jars of pickled vegetables too.

I have no appetite on the way because of the heat.

Bring fewer heavy jars

Others stayed in Zhuangli

Stock up on heatstroke prevention medicine

There are many people on the road

No one can fall.

20 cars

When we were poor

You can move house with just one bundle.

Now the family is large and prosperous.

Of course they are different.

daughter

I feel really dizzy and want to rest for a while.

What are you dizzy about? I'm so old, I can still do it.

No Miss Life

Young lady syndrome

I'm really uncomfortable.

Didn't I do all sorts of chores back in the Zhao family?

Now you think you're so delicate, even just letting me work in the ground a little?

ah

Second brother, come quick!

Your wife is really dizzy.

Babies, thank you all for liking to dress up as a peasant girl.

Raising kids and farming is incredibly fun and exciting!

The next season is currently in rapid production.

More exciting things to come!

Remember to click to reserve and add to your favorites!

Pregnant

What? My wife is pregnant!

It really happened.

Pregnant and overworked

It's so hot today.

Doing heavy work like this again

How could my body withstand it?

Women in the village who are pregnant still work.

Being able to work doesn't mean working yourself to death.

Take good care of yourself for a while.

You must raise

I won't let her work in the fields anymore.

I really have it.

Seriously, you shouldn't do any more heavy work in the fields.

Keep at home

Give me a big, healthy son

good

Ruxin's joyous occasion

Great joy

What happy event?

Someone is willing to marry you

Someone will marry me

Is that all that's worth making you so happy about?

A widower in Lijia Village

My wife is gone.

Three children in the family

So we're missing a free servant.

He's looking for a wife to settle down with.

Three children ready-made

Someone will take care of you in your old age.

How old are people?

32

Too old

At home

Five acres of land, a mud-brick house, not much money.

The betrothal gifts probably won't be much.

Or should we wait a little longer?

I want to see him

You two talk it over.

Let's go out

What do you think of me?

You're great.

If I enter the door and do not get out of bed...

become

I can manage the housework.

But money, food, and children

Big and small things at home

I want to make the decision.

From now on, you'll be the one in charge at home.

As long as you're willing to live a peaceful life with me...

I will definitely treat you well.

I really want to marry you

Things will naturally get better.

Too poor

But if I really go through this door

I'm the one who calls the shots in this house.

Unable to copy the book

Embroidered Tears

Growing vegetables is all hard labor.

I don't believe it.

Besides Zhao Xiaoyu

No one else can make money

I agree to this marriage, Mother.

Real Daughter

You've really figured it out.

Working at home is also a form of work.

After she married him, all those men were capable.

I can still manage the household.

There's nothing wrong with it.

Ruxin, I'm so sorry, Mom.

What happened next

You should talk to the matchmaker.

Great joy! Ruxin agreed to marry.

Okay, okay, I knew the magpies were chirping loudly this morning, hahaha!

Buy wine and kill chicken

Have a good drink today.

I stir-fried half of it to go with my drinks.

Half of the soup was used to nourish Ru Xin's body.

Just relying on the family fortune she married into the family

When will we be able to live a good life?

The money you use for daily expenses cannot be touched.

Too easy to discover

Hide those late moves

But eventually, the flowers will all run out.

We need to think of a way to actually make money.

I'll go see Zhao Xiaoyu tomorrow.

I'm definitely not as good as him at making money.

Mother has some great news to tell you.

Ruxin is getting married.

How big is your house?

bachelor or official husband?

husband in his 30s

Three children

Da Wen, you really let Ru Xin down.

What a lovely girl

You guys have really messed things up like this.

daughter

What did I do again?

She married into such a poor family.

As the father, you should give a bigger dowry.

Mother, of course I want to give

But the son really had no money.

Oh, so you went through all that trouble?

They've come after my money.

You really have no money.

Return the money that Ru Xin received from selling herself back then to her.

The house in the county town was given to her

Or sell it and give the silver to her.

Her mother's house was given to her

What will happen to my two sons' schooling in the future?

I can't go bankrupt for my daughter.

She has fallen to this point today.

You, as a father, have no responsibility.

How much land and estate does Mother plan to give Ruxin?

I knew you were still eyeing my two ounces of money.

Not a single extra coin

Your parents can pay for the rest.

What my mother-in-law said

Just two ounces

How much should we give?

A quilt

Give me another one or two as a last resort

That's too little, give me three ounces.

You can manage the money anyway.

They will get married in five days.

It just so happened that on the day we went to the prefectural city

What should we do about the light rain?

My niece ran away on her wedding day

It doesn't sound good.

Let's leave one day later.

Leave after finishing the wedding banquet

It's not a big deal if it's just one more day.

How to achieve success

Mr. Ruxin has arrived.

He said he wanted to see the young lady.

Find me

Do you want Dad to come with you?

I'm not worried because he can't beat me in a fight.

snort

My cousin is looking for me.

Speak your mind

Xiaoyu, I've come today to ask you for a favor.

But we don't seem to know each other very well.

I know we don't get along.

But I'm getting married soon.

His family was so poor they could barely afford a few copper coins.

Xiaoyu, my future husband's family is really poor.

The house is about to collapse

Can you teach me how to make money?

I also want my family to have a better life.

So that several children can go to school in the future

Then let's grow more vegetables.

If it can't be sold in the county town, it can be sold to my second uncle.

He also harvests vegetables now.

Growing vegetables is not suitable for us

There is only one truly strong laborer.

Didn't you just say that all three children could work?

Then I have no choice.

My cousin is educated

My uncle was a scholar.

You know more than I do.

I'm just a country girl

I really can't help.

My cousin was wrong before.

Please, for the sake of us growing up together...

Please help me this once.

stand up

I can't help you.

I won't get up today unless you agree.

I'll kneel until you calm down.

Are you asking for help or forcing someone?

I didn't ask you for money.

There's only one way to make money.

Why do you absolutely refuse to teach me?

I am your cousin

I'm not doing well.

Do you have light on your face?

People come and see off guests

I'm not leaving

Then take it out.

Let me go, Zhao Xiaoyu

You are so heartless.

The young lady's master told you to leave.

Dad, can we also sever ties with him?

He's different from Sanzhuzi.

It's not easy to find a reason

Today they even dared to kneel down in our house and force me to make a living.

After we left

He still doesn't know what he can do.

right

I'm going too, I'm a party involved.

Chieftain, I've come to ask you for a favor.

What's wrong? Tell me.

I want to sever ties with Zhao Ruxin

What did he do after you cut him off?

He came to my house and forced me to tell him how to make money.

I said farming and growing vegetables

He complained about being tired, so I said I was selling vegetables.

He doesn't want it.

Finally, he knelt on the ground and refused to leave.

They even called me heartless.

We can't afford to have relatives like that.

Later we went to the prefectural city

He's still causing trouble under the guise of being a relative.

Who knows what might happen?

He took the initiative to become a concubine back then.

What a scene my grandfather made when he was seriously ill

We've all seen

It didn't break at that time.

I've already given them a chance.

Let's go find Da Wen

What happened to the third brother again?

You're not here to see me, are you? Looking for your older brother?

Looking for my older brother

The third brother, the clan chief, has also arrived. What's going on?

My uncle and cousin made a scene at my house today.

This forces me to make a living

We decided to sever ties with her.

Even with this, there's nothing that can be done.

She's about to marry into such a poor family.

You sisters

She asked you to pull her back, so what?

He wasn't just begging to survive.

He found normal work too tiring.

They're forcing me to find a quick way to make money.

He chose to be a concubine back then.

Now, he himself agreed to this marriage.

Years have passed and it's still the same.

We can't afford to mess with them.

Therefore, it must be cut off.

The rain wasn't that bad.

Not to the point of severing ties

Big Brother

We're not here to discuss.

It's to inform you

What can't a family say openly?

Some relationships should be maintained.

It will only get more and more troublesome

Cousins, you're not saying these things against your conscience.

Is it wrong for me to go to your house to cause trouble?

I was begging you on my knees.

If you're not willing to help, then fine.

Now they're even coming back in a horse-drawn carriage to sever ties with me.

It's best not to lie through your teeth.

So what if I break it off? I only have a few stinking coins.

I'm waiting for the day you guys are unlucky enough to set off firecrackers.

Grandpa Clan

Write a letter of severing ties.

Ru Xin, don't act impulsively.

It's none of your business.

It's done

Da Wen, you're so confused!

Ruxin is also

Sometimes you have to know when to bow your head.

Third brother, you've finally arrived!

I see the same few faces every day.

I'm so annoyed

Why don't you ask someone to call your old girlfriends over?

Food and drink

Who wouldn't want to chat with you?

You're quick-witted.

By the way, Ru Xin is getting married.

Do you know?

Know

And they had just broken off their marriage.

His marriage will have nothing to do with me.

Another one broke

Give two taels of silver to Xiaoyu

Give me

I'll give you two taels of Ruxin.

You also have two ounces.

Give Zhao Di two taels of silver next time you see her.

Like several granddaughters

Mother has another matter

On the day Ruxin got married

We set off for the prefectural city.

Are you leaving now?

I'll come back for Chinese New Year.

a few months

But as soon as you left

Mother was unsure.

If you need anything, contact the village chief or clan head.

I've already made an appointment with the doctor in the county.

I'll show it to you once every two weeks.

Take good care of yourself

Live to be a hundred years old

So these few days

You should spend more time with your mother.

rest assured

You're crazy to break off the relationship at this time.

I've been crazy for a long time.

From the moment you sent me the money

I went crazy the day I got home

Your mother never advised you back then.

verbally advising

You can take the money I earned from selling myself.

Why did it happen so quickly?

Feel sorry for me

Then give me back my silver.

Give me back my house in the county town

It's not wrong to ask for help to make a living.

But why do you insist on arguing with people?

Zhao Laosan's family is resistant to gentle persuasion but not to force.

You still haven't figured it out after all these years?

Why should I keep my head down?

Based on the fact that you have no money or power now...

Give me my money back.

Where's the money? Where's the house in the county town?

That's what you willingly gave to your family.

You guys don't tell me how rich the Qian family is every day.

I will become a concubine

Now I can't even have children.

I want to marry a poor widower who is more than ten years older than me.

Are you satisfied now?

Ru Xin is also quite pitiful.

It was 200 taels back then.

Nowadays, a woman only receives a few taels of silver when she gets married.

Other people's business

Let's worry less

I still owe my mother money.

I need to earn money to pay off my debts.

When will the uncle come back?

I should be back for the Chinese New Year.

You can still study at Fucheng Academy in winter.

Xiao Lei went to read

I'm not going to study anymore.

Hahaha

From now on, I'll go shopping, drink tea, and raise birds with Grandpa Qian.

Enjoy your life

With you gone, there'll be one less person to drink and play cards this winter.

Then you can take your family to the prefectural city next winter.

I'll provide food and lodging.

Haha, it's a deal!

Light rain

Arrived in the prefectural city

You should keep a closer eye on your dad.

Don't let him go out and cause trouble.

Dad, when did I get into trouble?

Rest assured, sir

I definitely have faith in him.

And your mother

Sometimes I'm not as reliable as you when it comes to handling things.

Don't worry

I'll come back during the Chinese New Year.

You've all taken good care of them.

This is called casually carrying around.

We can't just move the village away like that.

Go home, I'll be back for the New Year.

Come back and visit your mother more often when you have time.

She misses you.

knew

Did Xiao Lei see us?

He wouldn't even say a word to me.

They finally left.

These days since I came back

Every day is chaotic

Dad can't bear to part with it.

You are all here

What I can't bear to part with

It was a sudden trip to the prefectural city.

I don't know what to do in the future.

Come back for Chinese New Year!

When Xiao Lei comes back, we'll go back.

The third brother is really gone.

The Third Master has made all the arrangements.

He even specifically instructed us to take good care of you.

He also specifically instructed

I have never seen a son more filial than the Third Master.

Why was I so biased back then?

The meat—that's what they call a grand wedding.

The man my sister-in-law is is Ruxin.

yes

He looks older than my older brother.

Without it, you look old.

We're getting married today.

Can't you wear nice clothes?

Mother, this is the only set we have.

What about taking a shower with that set?

Washing clothes at night

Hang it outside and it will dry overnight when it's hot.

You can buy it whenever you have money.

Why not raise pigs?

There were only two chicks.

This family seems a bit lazy.

It's not that I don't want to raise them

They can't afford piglets.

I only bought 3 chicks at the beginning.

One of them died.

How much money do you have left?

Not a single penny left.

There was still some

Marrying you has cost me all my money.

Marrying me will bankrupt your family.

How do you plan to live from now on?

That's how we live.

OK

Give me some time

I need to think carefully about how to make money.

What kind of family did you find for Ruxin?

Even someone this poor could get married

Then you should go find a good one.

She cannot give birth.

Many families would refuse upon hearing this.

This family has three children.

Too poor to be picky

Only then did he agree to marry

He really can't go on living like this.

Let's help out a little.

My own child

I wouldn't just watch him starve to death, would I?

We've arrived!

This is our home in the prefectural city.

Wow, this yard is really beautiful.

Grandpa Qian lived next to Dad

Pear Blossom and Lai Fu's house is ready.

Just tell the servants what you need.

It's good everywhere

Girls, you've thought of everything so thoroughly.

This place is much more lively than the county town.

Doing business is definitely more interesting.

Xiao Lei wants to enter the academy

Should Laifu also find a tutor to continue his studies?

Grandpa, I still prefer doing business.

When I was studying

My favorite subject is also accounting and arithmetic.

Doing business is certainly possible.

But what if you happen to pass the preliminary examination and become a scholar?

The shop will grow bigger in the future

Having a title and honor

Others should think twice before trying to manipulate you.

Uncle Zhao, why didn't I think of this before?

Moreover, you can't do everything yourself when you're running a big business.

Can you manage 10 shops from one existing one today?

The prefectural city can open

Can't the capital city open?

What you really need to learn is how to manage people, accounts, and a shop.

Xiaoyu, I overheard your conversation with Uncle Zhao today.

It's truly better than reading books for ten years.

Ha, you're exaggerating, little brother.

Light rain

I will go to the academy to register tomorrow.

I've already wasted quite a few days in the village.

Go in early so you can keep up with the pace

But after going in

I study during the day

I still need to review in the evening.

The time I have to spend with you will become less and less.

Xiao Lei, you're studying, not leaving me behind.

You and I are one, husband and wife.

Your future is my future.

I really feel indebted to you

Just study hard for the exam.

Bring me back a titled lady someday.

Let me be majestic too

good

I will definitely earn it back for you.

I'll make breakfast today.

You can leave now.

Who made this breakfast?

It's too plain!

I made my father.

That's very good.

At least the porridge wasn't burnt.

What's wrong with plain porridge and eggs?

Dad's getting more and more picky about food.

Later, I will enter the academy

I'm afraid I won't have much time to spend with you.

I wanted to get up early today and cook a meal.

This is the best academy in the prefectural city.

Just register

It feels like entering a government office.

Where did this chicken come from? Get out of here!

Well

Tuition fee: 10 taels per month

10 taels a month

Those who rank below 50 in the county-level imperial examination will not be accepted.

Those with outstanding grades may take a separate exam if they pass.

Fees may be reduced or waived

Even free room and board

So even if I wanted to come back then

They don't want me.

Dad, thank goodness you stopped missing me a long time ago.

I don't care about you at all

You enrolled midway through your studies

The previous lessons will not be repeated for you.

You can go to the new class

You can also directly follow the original

The class of the man I know

I and the original class

It will be very tiring.

Can't keep up

I'll fill it in myself.

Most of them started their education at a young age.

I only started halfway through.

I'm scared

Even if it's scary, you still have to read it.

Others use a little effort

I then used ten points

If ten points aren't enough, then one hundred points will do.

First, arrange a marriage for Laifu.

Whether or not one should study for the imperial examinations is another matter.

Homework cannot be neglected

Since we've spent money to hire a doctor

Just find someone you both feel comfortable with.

We don't want people putting on airs.

The basics are acceptable

Starting tomorrow, classes will be held every half day.

Three ounces of good numbers per month

If you teach well, it's worth three or two points.

Students should arrive on time tomorrow.

Uncle Zhao's outfit is just as nice as the one in the county town.

The most fashionable things are now available in the prefectural city.

It took a while for the news to reach the county.

Then I'll find a caravan to take the prefectural city.

What's the latest freight shipment to the county town?

Passing through so many counties and towns along the way

They can all be sold.

Lai Fu, you're awesome!

In the future, I can travel between Jiangnan and Beijing.

A truckload of goods went out

Come back and load another truck

Don't leave the car empty.

Start in the county town

Walk out little by little

Several are

Aunt is well

We just moved to the Zhao residence on the west side.

We'll be neighbors from now on.

I've come today specifically to recognize the gate.

You're too kind.

My husband works as a clerk in the yamen (government office).

If you have any questions in the future, feel free to ask.

I'll have to trouble my aunt a lot in the future.

Come sit here whenever you have free time.

Rice is cheaper in Dongshi.

Vegetables should be bought in the morning for the freshest taste.

You're new here, so you ask me questions.

Having a familiar neighbor is convenient.

How are these people, my older sister?

They all seem like people living ordinary lives.

The neighbors are not making a fuss

We'll be more comfortable living here from now on.

Zhao Family Sister

Freshly steamed osmanthus cake

Let me fill the stove for you

Sister-in-law, you're too kind.

Come in and have a seat.

No, no

The pot is still burning at home.

Good

It's just not sweet enough.

Grandpa Qian, eat less sweets.

getting old

Health is still the most important thing.

How's the first day going? Are you getting used to it yet?

No one was chatting in the academy.

All studying

Is the workload heavy?

Very heavy

It must be tiring to keep up with that.

More than just tired

What the Master taught today

I could barely understand anything.

You don't understand.

After class, the teacher explained it to me again by himself.

He said this period must be tough.

Give me some extra things to catch up on during my annual leave.

I should be able to catch up next semester.

Eat more

Tomorrow Mom will go buy walnuts to help with your brain development.

If you really can't read it, then don't read it.

Life goes on as usual when I go back to the village

daughter

I'm just not used to it on the first day.

Studying is important

Health is more important

I know I won't tough it out physically.

I think I'll stick to business.

At most, he could only pass the imperial examination to become a Xiucai (a scholar who passed the lowest level of the imperial examinations).

I won't go any higher.

I don't want to be an official's wife.

Every day there are rules and regulations

It's tiring just looking at it.

Fortunately, I have self-awareness.

Even Xiao Lei couldn't understand it.

I'll probably come back crying on my first day there.

Everyone, please eat first.

I'm going to change my clothes.

Look inside

Let's look at us again.

People live for several decades

You still need to know how to choose your route.

I still don't understand

I can still follow the Four Books and Five Classics

I really can't understand math.

There is now a field fifteen steps wide.

From sixteen steps

How many fields are there?

What exactly does "广从" mean?

This "wide" means broad.

From the beginning

15*16 240

Just calculate it like this

What else?

So what about Harada?

My head is about to explode from all that I've been listening to today.

ten steps in diameter

Radius five steps

Five times five and then three

Approximately 75 square steps

The Master lectured for half a day

I didn't understand a word.

You finished it in just a few strokes.

What else?

Chicken and rabbit in the same cage

This is even simpler with 12 rabbits.

There were 23 chickens, which was a clever number that made up 94.

Xiaoyu, when did you learn arithmetic?

I read it in a miscellaneous book.

I usually buy so many books

You know that, don't you?

Madam is very talented

Stop flattering

Which questions are you still having trouble with?

What exactly are they talking about?

I can't understand a single word.

If you don't understand, don't talk nonsense.

My daughter knows a lot

They said they were all read from miscellaneous books.

I know, I know

My wife and husband praised my rapid progress in mathematics today.

They even said I was exceptionally talented.

Congratulations!

Congratulations

It's all thanks to you.

It's also because you're willing to learn.

I've taught you almost everything I know.

Even if it's difficult, I might not.

That's impressive enough.

By the way, you might have to eat by yourself tomorrow night.

What are you going to do?

You'll have dinner by yourself tomorrow night.

We plan to stay up the mountain for two nights.

Two more nights

What's fun to do on the mountain?

It's just a few trees

Why don't you want us to go out?

It's not that you don't want to go out

I'm afraid you'll be bored.

It's just that my parents are out and about.

I mainly want you to stay with me tonight.

We will go out often in the future.

You have to get used to it.

There are many snakes and insects on that mountain.

The dew is heavy.

Bring enough clothes and medicine

And Dad is the one who runs around the most.

Put some medicine in his body as well.

It was sour just now

They're starting to kick me out now.

If you like going out to see things, then go see more.

Just want to come back sooner

One packet of realgar for each person

Another packet of deworming medicine

Haha, Xiaoyu is so thoughtful!

What's there to be afraid of about snakes?

Just in time to bake and eat

They also eat poisonous snakes.

Never mind then.

Grandpa Qian rests when he's tired.

Don't be reckless.

What's this compared to before, at this time of year?

I'm still in the fields harvesting autumn crops.

This mountain isn't even as high as the one behind our village, hahaha.

The mountains in the city are really something.

The steps are all built this wide

No wonder the people of the prefectural city are willing to spend money to climb it.

Grandpa Qian is really in good health.

The elderly in the village are used to doing manual labor

Walking a bit of mountain path is nothing.

Which of you two walks the slowest way?

Xiaoyu, you're not good enough!

Your mother's legs aren't as nimble as they used to be.

daughter

Walk

Hey you two, wait for me!

Who's really the one with the bad legs, Dad? Haha

The young mistress had given all the instructions before she left.

The meals were prepared according to her list.

Let's eat!

It's very late, Master.

Read another page

Xiao Lei

How come your math skills have improved so quickly all of a sudden?

Did they secretly hire a powerful tutor?

Please give me an introduction.

No teacher

My wife is excellent at mathematics.

She knows I won't.

He taught me every night

Haha, your wife

A woman teaches you arithmetic, hahaha.

Afraid that we'll learn to surpass you

If you're not willing to say it, just say it directly.

I'm stating the facts.

You don't believe

It has nothing to do with me

Did you hear what Lei Zi said in class?

I heard

You really learned math from Xiaoyu!

The Master also thought I was lying.

Even the Master thinks my Xiaoyu is a girl.

So she can't do it.

Lei Zi, don't be angry.

I was just asking casually.

Xiaoyu is already very good at math.

Many of his solutions were simpler than those taught by the academy's teachers.

So this holiday

May I visit your home?

There are a few questions I'd like to discuss with him.

The Master wrote down the diagram.

I'll take it back and ask him.

Ya Ya Nar

Dad, where did you get this little bird from?

What do you mean by tricking me into feeding it for two days?

It itself and me

You not only know how to lie...

Now they're even deceiving birds.

It's getting cold and it has no food.

I'll take it home and raise it for a few days.

Put it back in the spring

Hahaha

I'm back

Hmm, how's your study going these past two days?

I had a little unpleasantness with my classmate.

I'm making relatively fast progress in math.

I said you taught me

But they didn't believe it.

They even said I was keeping things to myself.

They've never even met you.

Why assume that women cannot do mathematics?

They don't know me.

It's perfectly normal not to believe.

But they look down on you

I don't need their approval.

Xiao Lei, you've misunderstood.

That's not what I meant.

You want to be an official in the future.

Classmates, superiors, even the emperor

My opinion may differ from yours.

Do I have to tough it out every time?

I'm not asking you to be subservient and fawn over people.

I'm here to teach you how to gain the trust and respect of others.

I'm still willing to associate with you.

A person in the academy

Ignore everyone

It's really not painful.

And the Master paid attention to me.

What was the teacher's attitude?

He doesn't really trust you either.

That would be even simpler.

Next time you have a day off, please invite the teacher to our home.

Let him see it with his own eyes, that's enough.

等修木夫子来了

就让他亲眼见识见识

最近他遇到难题还得来问我

行但别为了证明我

把自己在书院搞得谁都不理

别人说我可以

说你不行

你以后要走仕途

跟人相处也是学问

不是让你奉承

是别把人推远

我会学的

今日学够了

别把自己卷死

我再背一篇就休息

来站肩膀上

山上不是挺能耐吗

他下山就不认你了

天天好吃好喝伺候

我还能收服不了一只鸟

爹你来府城最大的正事就是遛鸟吧

这叫享受生活

Hahaha

前几日见老爷子咳嗽

我带了点梨来炖汤润润嗓子

嫂子有心了

他已经好多了

听说你们女婿在青山书院

一家人都是陪他搬来的

是住近些方便

秀才公亲爹娘呢

他们忙我们闲些

婶子今日特意过来

就是送梨

邻居间多走动嘛

听说赵老爷也是秀才

咋不继续念

我爹想过几年书分日子

秀才多难考啊

你们家又不是供不起

每个人选择不一样

你们还去城外山上住了

那地方听说可贵

出去散散心

嫂子家孩子也启蒙了吧

是啊我两个儿子都聪明

先生都夸

婶子你看我干啥

他今天这么殷勤

到底想干啥

have no idea

但他进门后把咱家下人看了好几遍

还一直盯梨花

以后少来往吧

谁串门一上来就问别人咋挣钱

家里啥情况

我也觉得他目的不单纯

对了三日后书院休沐

夫子要来咱家

夫子要来好

那天我不出去

咱多整几个下酒菜

人家就休一天

爹你可别把人灌趴下

来福咋还没回来

天天往外跑

书还念不念了

啥叫瞎跑

人家那叫视察市场

我今天去赵家串门了

他们家是真的有钱

光下人我就瞧见十来个

我早说让你好好跟他们处

萧秀才出门都有小厮跟着

还坐马车

可他们家怪得很

我问做啥营生

他们不说

问女婿爹娘咋不来

也支支吾吾

你问这些干啥

越有钱的人越忌讳家里这些事

你第一次上门就刨根问底

人家那叫低调

你这叫蠢

可他们还送我一篮果子呢

那是人家会做人

难道还能当场把你轰出去

我瞧赵家那个小姑娘挺机灵

跟咱儿子年纪也差不多

停赶紧停

人家凭啥看上咱家

嫁来跟你一样

一个铜板掰两半花

她嫁进来不就有钱了吗

人家的钱跟你有啥关系

谁好都不如自己好

两个儿子有出息了

好姑娘自然上门

以后少琢磨这些乱七八糟的

盯紧他们念书

这才是真正的正事

两个孩子也不知道学的咋样

等我得空

亲自去学堂问夫子

秋收以后

9月中就这个日子

If it drags on any longer

人家女方真要翻脸了

老大成亲不能太寒酸

置办两身新衣

喜宴每桌一只鸡

对老大可是长孙

我先拿点银子

明日还得进城

当家的银子不见了

胡说是不是记错地方了

咱又不是只藏一个地方

对还有别处

没了

全没了 70来两啊

咱家全部家底啊

不可能家里最近根本没来外人

当家的咱家遭贼了

老大快去叫村长

咱家银子被人偷光了

ah

到底丢了多少

73两整整73两

四个地方一起没了

屋里还没留下痕迹

村长我知道是谁了

who

三柱子他最近偷地里的菜

抢小孩吃食

还抢过婆婆银镯子

这世上还有啥事他不敢干的

可你们有证据吗

除了他还能有谁

三柱子呢

不知道白天整日在外头疯

一个院里住着

我们家73两没了

你们一点都不知道

抓贼抓赃

没证据就别往我们身上泼脏水

说不定还是你们自己家人拿的呢

fart

Okay

带我去三柱子屋里看看

村长可以查

但若什么都查不到

大伯大伯娘得给我

爹娘和三柱子道歉

这话公平

你答不答应

答应

但村长必须仔细搜

不可能再找

肯定藏起来了

No

No

没有屋里什么都没有

不可能就是三柱子

73两啊他到底藏哪去了

哼大伯娘

屋也搜了

老鼠洞都翻了

现在是不是该道歉了

赵大文之前说好的

没有证据就得给你二弟一家道歉

大嫂这是咋了

大伯家银子丢了

非说三柱子偷的

村长搜过啥都没有

Big Brother

没凭没据就往我儿子头上扣贼帽子

他再混也是个孩子

真背上偷73两的名声

以后还咋做人

你三弟呢

have no idea

你就不能关心一下亲弟弟

没空

以后谁不干活

赚不回口粮

谁就别吃饭

爹我说过

三柱子干我就干

他要有一口吃的我没有

你试试看

有本事你滚出去

老子当没生你

想让我净身出户做梦

必须把银子找回来

可咱藏了四个地方

还有一份埋地下

三柱子真能全找出来

不是他还能是谁

你们去找三柱子

不管用什么法子

必须逼他亲口承认

娘交给我们

可要真不是他

怎么样银子有下落了

Sister-in-law

村长刚搜完

你们又让人来问

是不是非得从我家

找出73两才肯罢休

我家银子丢了

还不能问问

问可以拿证据来

哪天丢的

谁看见拿的

你们倒是说清楚

73两啊我们攒了多少年

你让我们怎么办

你们急我知道

可你们丢了银子

不等于就是我家拿的行

这事我自己查

那就查清楚再开口

到底问到什么没有

没见着三柱子

二叔就把我们拦住了

爹二叔有句话咱们确实答不上来

什么话

这银子

究竟是哪天没的

今日发现的

那上回看见还是什么时候

平日花用的钱另放着

藏起来这些我有阵子没动了

In other words

银子可能早就没了

4个地方

连埋地下那份都找到了

拿钱的人怕是早就摸清了咱家的底

早就摸清了

当家的会不会是如心

你连自己闺女都怀疑

ah

我也不想

可这些年

屋里子屋外都是他收拾

柜子挪过没有

床底放了什么

他比谁都清楚

知道地方也不能说就是他拿的

One more thing

他前些日子天天追着要卖身银子

要县城房子

后来为什么突然不提了

咱们还以为她想通了

肯安安心心出嫁了

先别认定

已经闹了一场

这回总得问清楚

明日我去严家

你准备怎么问

先看看他过得怎么样

再听他怎么说

当家的我盼着不是他

哎回来

脚下留情

不要踩啊

这几笼我记了半年的长势

我刚刚着急了

没注意看

没踩到就行

如心嫁人后

大房73两银子失窃

嫌疑渐渐落到如心身上

鸡还修房子

娘您咋来了

快烧水我去地里摘点菜

娘难得来

让她和如心好好说说话

好啊

好得很

娘家里出啥事了

娘你干啥

死丫头你还敢问

家里的银子是不是你偷的

没有我咋会拿家里银子

我连你们把银子藏哪都不知道

不知道这些年家里谁天天打扫

桌子底下

柜子后头

屋里屋外哪块地方你没碰过

打扫屋子就能知道你藏银子娘

你这不是把屎盆子硬往我头上扣吗

那外头咋回事

房子修起来了

鸡也买了

以前严家穷的一文钱都没有

你一嫁进来

突然啥都有了

别跟我说用的嫁妆

你那点嫁妆有多少

我这个当娘的比谁都清楚

73两啊你咋能一文不给家里留

娘我跟你说实话

果然是你

你个死丫头咋恁毒啊

你就不能少拿一点吗

求求各位看官老爷帮忙点点收藏吧

点点关注吧

再这样下去就没有米下锅了

我们的剧组都要解散了

daughter

银子真不是我偷的

不是你那你这些钱哪来的

当初你们接我离开钱家的时候

钱家老夫人给了我50两遣散费

50两

我一直没告诉你们

再加上这些年绣荷包攒的二两嫁妆

奶给的添妆

我手里当然有银子

你咋能瞒着爹娘

告诉你们然后呢

卖我的银子

你们还过我一文吗

我若说手里有50两

你们真会留给我

还是又来一句

两个弟弟念书不容易

我们是你爹娘

还能害你

那县城的房子呢

我的卖身银子呢

不信就去钱家问

遣散的女人一人五十两

如心啊既然你手里还有几十两

能不能先借娘一点

cannot

你大弟马上成亲

20两不三十两

以后让你爹慢慢还

我借出去的钱

还拿的回来吗

我男人不会赚钱

还有三个孩子

房子不修

冬天我会冻死的

可你弟弟以后若考上功名

自然会给你撑腰

哈哈哈又开始画大饼了

今天让我拿钱供他

明天说他有出息会报答我

这话我从小听到大

县城最值钱的房子是我卖身换来的

我已经卖过自己一次还不够

难道连骨头渣子都得

给两个弟弟嚼干净

73两本就有我的份

只可惜拿晚了

Act early

Those 40 taels won't get away either.

Daughter, I beg you

If 20 taels isn't enough, then 10 taels will do.

Let your brother get married first.

Don't lend

Then tell your mother the truth.

You definitely didn't take the 73 taels from the house.

If you don't believe me, report me to the authorities.

I already had silver in my hands.

Why did I steal from you?

Where did the money from her mother's family go?

The three mothers and their sons could not be found in the house.

It doesn't mean others didn't take it.

Head of household

Ru Xin said she didn't take it.

You believe her when she says no

ah

He said the Qian family gave him 50 taels of severance pay back then.

I went to investigate myself.

Asked clearly

The Qian family dismissed those women back then

50 taels per person

So my daughter really isn't a thief.

She is not a thief

But she kept it from us for so many years.

Could the silver still have been taken by the second son's family?

You've been wanting to separate from the family every day, haven't you?

Divide today

My money

Not one less

That's enough.

Give Dazhu a piece of land

He shouldn't be burdened with the family's old debts.

that's all

become

Father, when I get married, I'll divide the property the same way as my eldest brother.

I'll divide it too.

What a bunch of unfilial children!

Who will take care of your parents when they get old?

Let's save more money from now on, sir.

Um

Children are unreliable

We can only rely on ourselves.

Master

After stopping school

You look much more energetic.

Of course, that means spending my days walking my bird, playing chess, strolling around town, and looking at paintings.

quack quack

Ha ha

Anyway, it's just comfortable.

You're living a really comfortable life.

Haha Master

Isn't this bird beautiful?

I didn't sell it even though someone offered me 50 taels.

50 taels

I'm planning to buy two more to keep it company.

Hahaha

How's Lei Zi doing at the academy lately?

Diligence is true diligence.

Too independent

Aside from me, almost no one else got close to him.

It's been two years.

Also because of Xiaoyu's incident

He insisted that Xiaoyu taught him mathematics.

My classmates didn't believe me.

He was too lazy to explain.

It was Xiaoyu who taught it.

You said that too.

My daughter has a natural talent for math.

Lei Zi didn't know at first

It was all thanks to her special tutoring

Light rain

I have a math problem

Could I ask you a few questions?

Confucius said it is true.

More is not enough

Less is more

Here we go again, with all this stuff I don't understand.

Bring me paper and pen.

Don't worry about the original division method for now.

Assuming each person receives 3 fewer portions

The extra quantity can then be recalculated.

Then calculate the total difference between the two sides.

Divide by the number of people and you'll get the result.

etc.

Wonderful, Master, slow down!

The table doesn't belong to the academy.

Bypassing tedious steps

Directly grasp the profit and loss difference

Simple and clear

It can actually be calculated like this?

I just figured it out on my own.

Wonderful, truly wonderful!

Xiaoyu, what's wrong with your brain?

He figured it out himself.

Normally, I calculate the accounts and income.

I figured it out slowly

See how amazing my daughter is?

Truly remarkable

Let's go through Lei Zi's arithmetic problem again.

good

Mathematics, please help me.

I'll help you with the article.

Why are those two starting again?

Autumn is here

Should I go back to the village to collect walnut gourds? I'll go too.

Grandpa, please stop making a fuss.

The prefectural city is so big

There are also many surrounding villages

You lead people to collect [the items] here.

My mother is making soy sauce at home.

They don't necessarily earn less than the villagers.

My dad and I went back

It's because the village also needs to collect and deliver goods and check on the workshops.

become

Then I'll guard your house.

That's right.

How many people to take back

Without

What

Xiaoyu and I walked together.

I catch the train myself

You've gone mad this far.

Just you and your daughter

Let them go.

This family is incredibly brave.

Dad, I'm going too.

No, my older sister is gone.

You need to take care of Mom and Grandpa Qian at home.

Then you can rest assured.

Leave the house to me

Do you really have to come back together?

The walnut gourd was the biggest source of income for the family.

I must go back and see.

You can't travel at night on that road, so bring enough...

Stay in a hotel if you can

knew

Light rain

What's wrong?

We've been married for over two years

Do you think it might actually happen this time?

Xiaoyu, please take her pulse again more carefully.

Could she really be pregnant?

Okay, let me feel it more carefully.

I couldn't find it.

We've been married for over two years

Whether it happens or not, let nature take its course.

Don't scare yourself.

Perhaps we should see a doctor.

A doctor cannot heal himself.

Let another doctor take a look.

Only then did I feel relieved.

So what do you want to do?

Bring antidiarrheal, fever-reducing, and wound-healing medications.

If you feel unwell on the way, see a doctor immediately.

Got it

I still crave this every autumn, even though I eat it every year.

This is exactly what I've been waiting for, hahaha!

Grandpa Qian's three

Eat up to three

Eating spicy food and drinking alcohol

Don't get an upset stomach.

I'm getting old.

Even eating is subject to someone's control.

Slow down, sir.

No rush

Um

Daughter, keep an eye on your dad.

Don't let him mess around on the road.

Mother, rest assured

Do you really not need a driver?

It's best not to let my dad rush me.

I didn't notice it at all.

Dad, I also

drive

I haven't finished speaking yet.

Daughter, it's so much more comfortable for the two of us to go out alone.

The weather is also comfortable.

Mother didn't come along.

If your mother comes along

We can't shake off the pear blossoms.

Father, would you dare say that to Mother's face?

Haha, isn't she deaf?

My daughter still prefers to come out with you alone.

eat

The money that Grandpa Qian collected from picking gourds in the rain.

You must remember this clearly.

Mother can keep accounts

He has to give it to me whether he wants it or not.

This is the result of someone else's hard work.

And pear blossoms

What happened to the pear blossoms?

House, shop, dowry

Everything that should be given has been given.

After he gets married, he'll live his own life.

Unless he comes to you

You can't cover for him in everything.

Knowing his life, he lets him live it on his own.

Oh, my daughter

Another bucket full

Continue changing barrels

Hey hey

This trip was worthwhile.

Of course, we were quick enough to grab it this year.

Uncle, didn't you go to the prefectural city?

Haha, come back and see how we make money at home!

ah

Dad, stop talking.

We still need to go to the village

Walk

ah

Master and Miss

How was the gourd sauce made?

Delivery to listeners

Give the money in person

Then send it to the backyard for processing.

More than 30 jars per day

Delivered to the restaurant

All the returned silver was recorded in the accounts one by one.

Good job

Let's go check out the workshop.

Dad, it seems like we came back for nothing this time.

Haha, why is it called "white comeback"?

We also made money along the way, didn't we?

Walk back to the village

Go home first

Go see your grandma first

He came back but didn't look at her.

She could talk about it all the way up to the Lunar New Year.

Haha, okay?

Go see the great ancestor at home

Uncle, didn't you say you wouldn't be back until Chinese New Year?

Isn't this because I'm thinking of my mother?

You're so far away, why don't you come back and visit?

I feel uneasy.

You are still the most filial.

The old lady is truly blessed to have a son like you.

I'm back to collect gourd kernels again.

Just to make a little extra money

The third child, Xiaoyu

He really came to see me.

daughter

Grandma, how did you get so fat?

It's better to be a little chubby

Being chubby means having good milk.

Mom, you've gained a little weight.

How dare you talk like that to your own mother?

How much does she eat in a day?

ah

Two bowls of porridge in the morning

Two eggs

Add a meat patty or a meat bun.

This is just breakfast

There is food available at noon and in the evening.

There is also chicken and fish meat.

Sometimes I eat wontons or dumplings before bed.

During the day, there are also snacks, fruits, dried fruits, and melon seeds.

Mom, you eat more in one day than I do in two.

I have silver

I eat my own

I didn't eat your food.

The problem isn't the money.

You lie still all day

Still eating like this

Your body will eventually be unable to take it.

You didn't come back just to cut off my food supply, did you?

I'm worried you'll make yourself sick from eating it.

I'll see a doctor tomorrow.

I'll find it today.

I'm not sick, I can eat and sleep well, I'm perfectly fine.

Before my father passed away, wasn't...

Have you arranged for a doctor to come regularly?

Always

How often

Once every two weeks

When was the most recent one?

I just came here a few days ago.

daughter

What exactly did the doctor say?

The doctor just came a few days ago

The old lady needs to eat lighter meals.

It's best to avoid pastries, sweets, and meats.

Replace refined grains with whole grains

I was poor my whole life

When I was young, there was nothing to eat.

Finally, I'm old and have some money.

They even told me to eat whole grains and vegetables every day.

The milk doctor isn't trying to seduce you.

He wants you to live a few more years.

If you drool every day

What's the point of living a few more years?

If you continue eating like this

You might live a few years less.

Are you still willing?

I'd rather be a gluttonous ghost.

Mother, you're really open-minded!

Reduce meals by half

Continue eating mixed grains

Meat once every three days

Fish is edible

Forget about sugar.

Let's just give them two sweet treats for Chinese New Year.

Melon seeds

Eat as many sunflower seeds as you like.

My granddaughter still loves me the most.

Unlike Dazhuzi and his wife

I come here every day to complain about being poor.

They want to squeeze money out of me.

I won't give it to you.

And your uncle

The family's money has been stolen again.

It's gone again.

It must be Xiao Hong

That woman is skilled at stealing silver.

Who knows, they might come back and move it again.

Big Tree, hurry and find that Little Red

Get all the money they took from our family back.

No one in the village had ever seen Xiao Hong.

Where am I supposed to find this?

Who else could it be?

Your older brother suspects Sanzhuzi

But the village chief ransacked his house.

Nothing

There were no signs of outsiders entering or leaving.

There was nothing there either at Sanzhuzi's place.

That's probably someone they know.

family

Two families live in one courtyard.

Who hid something?

Who usually walks where?

They are all easy to figure out

Can our own people really be this ruthless?

Not a single penny was left.

Human nature

It's hard to say.

Third brother, my old town snacks!

Two boxes are enough for you.

The doctor said

You can't eat

The way the village chief was looking at you was strange.

snort

He knew we were coming back to collect the walnut gourds.

He was probably unwilling to accept it.

What can you do if you're not willing to accept it?

If he's so capable, he can earn his own money.

It's hard to guard against a villain.

He was still the clan leader after all.

Don't worry, I know this guy best.

Big heart, small hands, and lots of thoughts

If you really let him do it

He didn't have the guts.

father

The old man was really angry just now.

snort

I'm so angry! He and your grandpa used to cause me a lot of trouble.

I'm so angry, I might as well go down and keep your grandpa company.

Early death, early reincarnation

May you have fewer flaws in your next life, hahaha.

Dad, you really have a foul mouth.

hehe

What good deeds should I do?

Let's make money

This batch will be made into sauce first.

Death and gourds won't last long.

The bank manager went to reconcile the accounts with the shopkeeper.

I'll go around again.

The accounts are fine now.

That doesn't mean there will never be a problem.

I'll come back every year to have more checkups.

The industry has grown

You can't entrust all your money to one person.

The more you earn, the more closely you need to keep an eye on things.

Making walnut gourds is still profitable this year.

Going out every day is like picking up money off the ground.

Haha, I heard my father-in-law changed his ways of playing this year.

Old Master Song is amazing!

Others picked them up from near to far.

He picked them up from far to near.

The old man is really good at calculation.

We've all agreed.

The school districts will be rezoned next year.

Separate near and far

Saves you from running around for ages only to have someone else pick up the leftovers.

You can discuss it yourselves.

I made a good profit this year.

I'll go stay in the prefectural city for a while after I'm done with my work.

Uncle

Could you take a look at the houses in the prefectural city for me?

You want to buy a house

What's the budget?

Okay, anything is fine.

Around 1,000 taels

1,000 taels is still considered ordinary.

Shunzi, you're so rich and powerful now!

Money won't breed children even if you hold it in your hand.

Buy a home

From now on, I can go to the prefectural city whenever I want.

What do people earn money for?

Isn't it all for enjoyment?

In another ten years or so

I'm afraid I won't be able to walk even if I want to.

Make money when it's time to make money

Enjoy life when you should.

Let's drink to our hearts' content tonight!

I still have to catch the train.

How come you're rich now?

My courage has actually decreased.

This is called cherishing life.

My daughter said

If you want to live a few more years, you have to take care of your health.

I'm cowardly because I value my life.

Didn't you say you were healthier than me?

Come and have a go, come on!

I'm afraid of you, you weak scholar.

Hahaha

I just said I should cherish my life.

They were about to start a fight.

You two are really something.

Dad and son have come to see you

I brought you some wine.

I have good news for you.

We've all moved to the prefectural city.

Lei Zi entered the best academy in the prefectural city.

Which family do you value most? Your eldest brother's family?

The silver has been stolen again.

The two grandsons aren't doing very well in school either.

Not to mention the ones from my second brother's family.

Dad, do you feel colder and colder?

I haven't finished talking about the big pillar and the three pillars yet!

Luckily I didn't want them back then.

My second brother's children are all a handful; none of them are easy to deal with.

Let's save that for the New Year.

You've said everything today.

What to talk about next time

I really feel a chilly wind blowing around here.

Your grandpa is so excited to see how I'm doing now.

And Ruxin

Your grandpa used to say every day that she was the most promising.

She will definitely marry the best in the future.

father

That's enough.

Grandpa didn't crawl out from underground.

He already has an overflowing amount of fatherly love.

What's there to be afraid of? I'll be buried here too.

When the time comes, you should burn lots of gold for me, for my houses and servants.

Don't want the silver

Don't all go down there.

They even used silver to burn gold mountains.

Oh

Dad, don't spend it recklessly.

Just buy wine and meat.

Mother will go down now.

You two still have to live your lives.

Will Dad come back?

Let's continue

It was already dark.

Daughter, what if your grandma really...

Leave everything to me.

You're unhappy

That's something you can only dream about.

Daughter

I don't actually care about your grandma's little bit of money at all.

Then why do you still think about it every day?

I'm not after the money.

I feel that why shouldn't I take what's rightfully mine?

Even a penny is mine.

Don't tell me that suffering a loss is a blessing.

I've had enough.

father

You were just too badly fooled when you were a child.

Nonsense, I just don't want to be a sucker.

It's all in the past.

But just thinking about it still makes me feel suffocated.

Then don't think about them.

Let's move to the farm.

Cashier and Account Check

Look at the crops

Fishing for fun

Make delicious food

The most important thing is to be comfortable.

Cheng Ting's daughter

The old man, Dazhuzi, brought his wife.

He also carried a basket of vegetables

Going to see him and drinking alone is not as fun as teasing him.

Auntie talks about you every day.

I heard you're back.

Come and take a look!

How was your stay in the prefectural city?

The prefectural city is great!

Living in a big house

A large group of servants served him

Grandpa Qian and I walk the dog, raise birds, and eat snacks every day.

When we have some free time, the whole family goes on a trip for a few days, staying in a guesthouse and enjoying the scenery.

Uncle is really living a good life.

There's just too much to do in the capital city.

I never know which blessing to enjoy first.

Xiaoyu looks really good in this outfit.

Bought in Fucheng

Sister-in-law, have you lost weight?

It's only been half a month since the family separated.

I've already lost a significant amount of weight.

Uncle, I only realized how tough life was after we separated from the family.

Not much land was allocated

Pay the taxes

Even eating is a problem

Sometimes I only drink soup once a day.

I don't even know what it feels like to be full anymore.

Then let's get to work!

You are young and strong

You can starve yourself to death

It's good to learn from your parents how to grow and sell vegetables.

Uncle, I don't want to sell vegetables.

Then go back and ask your parents what they think.

Elders would never harm you, right?

yes

Xiaoyu, what have you and your third uncle been busy with since you came back this time?

I have my own things to do

Tell your sister-in-law what's wrong.

Your cousin and I are just killing time anyway.

I can help you with your work

Need not

There are many servants in my family

Enough work for them

I still need to visit your grandma.

Go quickly

Oh

Uncle Na

We'll go first.

Then I'll come and talk to you every day from now on.

We're about the same age

You must be so bored at home alone.

I'm not bored.

Reading storybooks with my dad

Go out for a walk

Eat delicious food

I'm too busy to keep up even for a day

It means my daughter has me by her side.

What kind of people do you need to chat with?

The autumn harvest is over

You'd better hurry up and gather more firewood and dig up more wild vegetables.

Find whatever food you can in the mountains.

I am alone

Otherwise, why would I have to do such a small thing?

Then why would I marry you?

You won't do small things

You don't do the autumn harvest?

You won't even go out to earn money.

Zhao Dazhuzi

So what exactly can you do?

Which of these things in the house did you do?

They started arguing

He seems quite fierce.

I married you to build a life together.

I'm not here to be your slave.

These two are in big trouble.

Honey, how about we go back and tell our parents we're not separating from the family?

What did you say?

It was fine the way it was before.

They took over the farm work from both of us.

Let's continue to live a life of leisure and wait to die, hmph.

Your parents are probably just hoping we'll suffer.

Do you think they'll still put the two...

The workers were taken back to raise them.

I'll definitely go out and make money next year.

So I'll still be doing it all by myself this year.

Zhao Dazhuzi

If you keep lying like that...

I'm going back to my parents' home tomorrow.

I'd rather you freeze to death.

My aunt and uncle said the grass on my grandfather's grave was already up to his legs.

They also said that their father and uncle were unfilial.

A cold wind blows all over the mountain.

Shut up

It wasn't me who said it.

It was your third uncle who told you to go and visit when you have time.

Live your own life well

Mind your own business

My daughter promised to buy you land.

I've been to the prefectural city for so long

I haven't met the right one yet.

Go back and look again.

You said these things in my hand

Should we hand over some of it first?

It wasn't said that we'd use it after Lei Zi became an official.

I've changed my mind.

Xiao Lei has his own path.

We can't expose the whole family's secrets.

All the pressure is on one person

You want to accumulate credit for yourself?

Leave yourself something to protect yourself

Teach this first

Building truck

The planting depth varies among ordinary buildings and vehicles.

Some are dense, some are sparse

This uses a grooved wooden wheel for planting.

More uniform seeds

Seeds of different sizes

Just change to wheels with different grooves.

This thing is really meant to be given to the county magistrate!

You told him

After we developed it in the prefectural city

I rushed back specifically to inform him.

This favor must be remembered by the county magistrate.

Xiao Lei was able to become an official through the imperial examination.

I can also use these things to earn credit for my dad.

Big tree, please let me see it.

What good stuff have they gotten their hands on this time?

This is called an improved building vehicle, sir.

You see, this wooden wheel groove allows for precise seed dispensing.

The depth and density are more stable than before.

How is it? Does it work?

The adults planted the seeds evenly and used them very well.

Good!

Sir, we now live in the prefectural city.

After this thing is made

I was thinking of sending it back to you first so you can see it.

You could have gone directly to the prefect.

But he came back specifically to see me.

Over the years, the adults have taken care of the Zhao family.

I remember them all.

Uncle, you're great.

If there is a problem with the building vehicle

Please call me whatever you like, sir.

The carpenter could also stay and help.

I need to go back first, something really has come up.

I will find you myself.

Scholars are good

No need to kneel before the county magistrate anymore

My daughter has become

The magistrate accepted it.

They were so happy to receive it, it was like finding silver.

Why

No problem at the moment.

ah

Um

Daughter Zhao Xiaoyu

Why do you always want to sleep?

Should we call a doctor?

No need to call anymore

I have already seen a doctor.

I've seen it, what's wrong with you?

Father, you're going to be a master!

What

I'm pregnant.

More than a month

Yes, it's here.

The doctor saw

The child is doing very well

Haha, the next generation of the Zhao family is here!

Daughter

Will I be considered my grandfather or maternal grandfather in the future?

Uh, call whichever you like.

Grandpa must be called Grandpa

Xiao Ping was so angry he died

As long as you're happy.

Can you still return to the prefectural city if you're pregnant?

The carriage ride is so bumpy from this far away.

I want to go back; I don't want to stay in the village alone.

I have a solution.

Then we won't go back to the village for the New Year this year.

Slowly walked back to the prefectural city

After you give birth

After postpartum confinement

Delivery services are also convenient in the prefectural city.

Pregnant women aren't that delicate.

Women in the village still go to the fields even when they're pregnant.

Starting today

Lighter food

Eggs, meat, fish, and vegetables are all necessary.

Not greasy, but also not lacking in nutrition.

Rest assured, sir

That's good.

To avoid waste and to eat more dishes

Each person in the kitchen was given three taels of silver.

Thank you, Miss.

I specifically instructed them last night.

You're eating now, there are two of you.

You must eat well

Who said I wasn't that precious yesterday?

Being non-fussy and eating well are not mutually exclusive.

Mom Xiaoyu is pregnant

Really!

Xiaoyu is a lucky girl.

She got pregnant right after getting married

More promising than her mother

daughter

My wife is incredibly lucky.

You're confused.

Yes, yes, your wife will also be blessed.

Your family is blessed.

My older brother's family is having a wedding banquet in a few days.

The light rain won't come.

Many people and many children

It's not worth it if you get hit.

She is the most precious person to me now.

Please don't come to the wedding banquet.

Kids are naughty

A single bump could be disastrous.

Xiaoyu is pregnant now.

Does this mean we can't go back to the prefectural city?

The road is so far, it must be so tiring.

Turning back the carriage

If you get tired of sitting, you can lie down.

She hasn't worked for many years.

Can withstand

My daughter isn't that delicate.

Mother, I'm leaving.

Go tell your older brothers the good news.

This second brother

You're really not selling vegetables anymore?

I'm not selling anymore, I'm busy all day long.

My body is almost broken.

I've come to terms with it.

Children and grandchildren have their own blessings.

After marriage, you can divide everything you want to.

In the future, when your second sister-in-law and I are too old to move...

I don't ask them to support me.

At worst, just hang a white silk ribbon inside the house to save trouble.

Second brother, you've even planned out how you'll die!

Actually, the second bead is alright.

Really want to retire

Of the three, I actually think he's the most reliable.

He's easily influenced.

The eldest brother has already corrupted him.

Even the worst is better than the other two.

At least he won't mistreat you when you're old.

When you get old

I'll make you eat shit

You used to think he was the easiest to control.

So the least attentive

Now that we really need someone to rely on, we finally think of them.

Third brother, what exactly did you come here for today?

Oh, I almost forgot.

Our little Yu is pregnant!

That's great, my third brother is going to have an heir!

Second brother, you're working hard too!

Dazhuzi has been married for a while now.

Why is there still no movement?

They are still young, no rush

You still have the mind to think about your grandson?

Let's deal with the three pillars first.

What did he do again?

Let him get down

He deliberately destroyed the grain.

After being chased away, they went and started randomly cutting down trees in other people's fields.

It's not about fighting lately.

It means climbing over someone's wall in the middle of the night.

Everyone in the village says

He should be sent to the yamen and locked up.

It's gotten to this point.

Second brother, no wonder you stopped selling vegetables.

Earned it back today

The family will be out of money tomorrow.

Who could stand it?

Sanzhuzi didn't steal the 73 taels from his eldest brother.

Did I say it was him? Why are you in such a hurry?

Second brother, you need to take care of the kids.

If this continues...

In the future, you won't even have the face to speak up for him.

Shut up

ah

By the way, big brother

Wedding banquet in a few days

The light rain didn't come.

She was pregnant

Many people and many children

I'm worried

Let her rest assured and take care of herself.

You just need to come earlier.

There's another thing.

You two should visit Dad in the mountains more often when you have time.

The grass on the grave is almost up to my legs.

I'll go another day.

Dad used to dote on my eldest brother the most.

Brother, please visit more often.

Second brother, don't run away!

Didn't Dad love you before?

I'm leaving, don't bother seeing me off.

Uncle and Aunt, you've all arrived.

Oh, it's been a while!

She looks so fresh and radiant again.

My daughter wasn't always pretty.

Yes, yes, always looks good

Oh

How much did you make from river husks this year?

I'm so greedy, I wish I could pick up trash every day of the year.

Why don't you just let the silver come directly from...?

It will fall from the sky and kill you.

Shut up

How is Old Master Qian doing in the prefectural city?

It's so good!

When I have free time, I hang out with a bunch of old men, walking their birds, playing chess, and going shopping.

Haha, it's so fashionable now!

Even old men are living this kind of life now.

I'm definitely going to that prefectural city.

After He Hulu finished his work

I'll go take a look too.

I'll see what a truly great day looks like.

Grandpa and Grandma

Don't follow along and collect gourd pits anymore.

When her mother left, she even specially

I told you to take care of yourself.

Your body will break down quickly if you don't do any work.

And you can earn a few dollars every day.

I had a great time there too.

It's only when I'm stuck at home that I feel miserable.

You can travel around too!

You are pregnant now

We really need to go back to the prefectural city.

The pregnancy is still in its early stages.

Walk slowly, it's okay.

We don't travel at night.

Rest as you go

I looked at her

That departure

I guess I won't be coming back for the Chinese New Year.

We will definitely come back next Chinese New Year, sir.

Come back next year

Why don't you come with us to the prefectural city, Mom and Dad?

Go to the prefectural city

The children in the family have all moved out.

You don't need to worry about it.

While your legs can still move

Go out and see more

I also want to see how big the prefectural city is.

Haha, let's go then!

I want to broaden my horizons

It's settled then.

Let's go together

If Dad doesn't leave soon, it'll really snow.

The weather is indeed very gloomy.

If grandparents also go

It will definitely be slow on the road.

Go to the village tomorrow and inform them.

We're leaving the day after tomorrow.

become

Uncle Shunzi's family

Don't forget Grandpa's house

I can't forget that I left my father-in-law behind.

Am I even alive?

I wonder if it snowed in the prefectural city.

Your mother is most afraid of the cold.

I'm not sure if she sleeps warmly at night.

Missing your mother, huh?

I wonder what's wrong with my wife?

You can't think about your own wife

You don't want Xiao Lei

You don't want to tell him right away that you're pregnant with his baby.

Can we eat now?

Haha, eat more of this tender piece!

Then you should go first thing tomorrow morning.

Inform Uncle Shunzi and the Master

Okay, let's hurry back to the prefectural city.

Mom and Dad, we'll set off the day after tomorrow.

I'll pick you up then.

I don't need to drive my own car

I'll need it again when I get back.

Then add a few more blankets.

Put a small stove on the road to keep it cold.

Don't worry, I'm going to the capital to enjoy life.

It's not like we're going to suffer.

Should we leave now or stay?

Xiaoyu is pregnant

Why go through all this trouble?

Everything is packed

These days must be returned to

Then go back

Xiaoyu stayed with me.

Can't leave after the New Year?

If I don't go back this time...

We won't be coming back for Chinese New Year.

What

They won't come back for Chinese New Year.

What should I do then?

Mother, you still have your eldest and second brothers.

Your retirement is their responsibility anyway.

But right now I miss you the most.

Among the previous sons

Isn't that what you least want?

The food is enough to feed you for more than half a year.

There is also a monthly pension allowance.

The doctor came as usual.

But you remember this

Who's complaining about being poor? Who's playing the victim?

No one is allowed to spend money on medical treatment.

Money is easy to give away

It will be difficult to get it back.

When you really get sick

What should I use to call a doctor?

I didn't give it away randomly.

It's best not to have

Medical accounts will not match in the future

I won't fill in the extra money.

Huang

Old lady

How did he know?

What do you know?

I gave the eldest brother five taels a few days ago.

I didn't tell anyone.

Why does the third brother's every word pierce my heart?

Who snitched?

Who betrayed me?

Quickly call the boss over.

Call it now

The old lady really wanted the money back.

That's my money for medical treatment and saving my life.

From now on, it won't work no matter who cries about being poor.

What happened to Mom?

Feeling unwell

Pay back the 5 taels of silver from a few days ago

Give it back to me immediately.

What about paying back money, Mother?

That's not because you're upset that my house was burgled.

Did you give me the subsidy?

The subsidy was clearly agreed to be lent to you in an emergency.

Pay me back next year when you earn money copying books.

Mother only had 5 taels of silver

You're so calculating even with your own son?

Our brothers will give you 120 taels for retirement and medical expenses.

You still have hooves

The third brother will also give you a subsidy.

If Dad were here

Knowing that you treat your son this way

How disappointed he must be

That's the money I paid for my medical treatment.

Mother insisted it was borrowed

Then pretend the son didn't say anything.

Okay, okay

I don't want it anymore.

Can't I just not want it anymore?

What terrible things have I done?

One or two of them came to collect the debt.

I need to hold onto my money more tightly from now on.

Don't be soft-hearted no matter what anyone says.

Lock them all

Don't put it in front of me

I don't even watch it myself.

Has the whole village been notified?

Okay, your maternal grandparents are riding in their own mule cart.

Shunzi, Huzi, and the others also came together.

There are quite a lot of people this time.

It's more lively when there are more people

Save yourself from the cold along the way

The line will be really big tomorrow.

If your parents don't like living here, they can come back.

If your legs hurt

Don't force yourself to stay strong.

If I don't come back for Chinese New Year

Remember to send a letter

Don't make us wait.

They all look like they've never been weaned.

It's not like I'm not coming back.

Alright, I'm going to the capital to enjoy myself.

What are you still crying for?

This is what it means to be on the road.

I don't want to study.

My head hurts just looking at the words.

That's because you lack talent.

Now that I can read

Read any storybook

Tiger, don't listen to his nonsense.

I was forced to learn to read before.

I break out in a sweat when I hear my wife calling me.

Then I'm definitely not going to learn it.

Hahaha

Never mention the word "study" in front of your wife.

Hahaha

Grandma, please don't pick up gourd pits next year.

You're too old, don't overdo it.

Your grandpa and I have agreed not to pick them up anymore.

real

I've earned the money I was supposed to over the years.

While my legs can still walk

Enjoy a few more years of happiness

I used to want to eat but couldn't afford it.

I want to play but I don't have time.

Now all the money has been made up.

Big Tree has become rich over the years

Many villagers advised him to find a younger woman.

Have a son

He didn't hear a word.

Our daughter made the right choice in choosing him back then.

He's a bit of a jerk.

People are real

Achoo!

Who's talking about me again?

Hahaha

Xiaoyu, your pickled vegetables are amazing!

I can eat three bowls of porridge

Why are you tired of the pickled food I make?

No, absolutely not.

Haha, Tiger, you've finally met your match!

What are you laughing at? The big tree already said so.

Fearing one's wife can bring wealth

Which of you is not afraid?

That's absolutely right.

Then keep going.

Hahaha

Oh no, it's snowing!

Only halfway there

We can no longer play while walking.

All on their way

The first snow hasn't settled the roads yet, so let's dawdle.

If the snow buries the livestock's legs, it will be a problem.

Listen to the big tree

I'm not going to visit the county town anymore.

The river gourds are long gone.

Why aren't they back yet?

Don't overthink it.

Big Tree probably lost track of time while playing in the village again.

He's unreliable

Xiaoyu is always reliable, right?

My daughter is with me.

How could I not urge him?

Aunt and the others are probably already on their way.

There's no use in being anxious now.

I should have gone with them.

I miss your wife again.

It's snowing, and Xiaoyu and her dad haven't come back yet.

The roads became even more difficult to travel after the snow accumulated.

Have you finished your homework?

No

Then let's do it.

Xiaoyu came back and found that you had fallen behind in your studies.

Is she angry?

Lei Zi, should I send someone out to look for him?

Send two skilled fighters

Riding fast horses to welcome along the road

As long as they are safe

He immediately returned to report the news.

It's better than us guessing all day long.

That's how it should be done.

Babies, thank you all for liking to dress up as a peasant girl.

Raising kids and farming is incredibly fun and exciting!

The next season is currently in rapid production.

More exciting things to come!

Remember to click to reserve and add to your favorites!

Is my daughter tired?

If you feel unwell, just say so.

I lay there the whole way.

I didn't even move, why am I tired?

master

What brings you here?

The lady and her son-in-law were extremely anxious.

Let the younger ones come out to greet people.

I was a little late.

Sir, you arrived about 20 days later than originally planned.

20 days

Dad, I always said we've been playing for too long.

Stop following me.

I'll return to the prefectural city immediately to report that I'm safe.

Tell my wife

We are all fine.

It will be about seven or eight days later.

yes

Oh, and have Madam tidy up a few more rooms.

How many people did the master bring this time?

Many of my parents-in-law also came.

Your mother will definitely scold you when you get back.

Daughter, you have to put in a good word for your father then.

Don't worry, Mom will see Grandpa and Grandma as soon as she sees them.

I don't have time to bother with you.

That makes sense.

lady

The lady found the master and the others.

Are all the people safe and sound?

It should arrive in four or five days.

It's good that you're back.

One more thing

The old master and old lady also came.

My parents

Cleaning the house

Take more blankets

The kang (heated brick bed) is fully heated.

My dad likes to drink water at night.

Place a small tea table next to the kang (heated brick bed).

Wow, this winter is going to be so lively, hahaha!

We've finally arrived!

This is the prefectural city.

Such a large city wall

Um

I'm back

Walk

We went home

Why haven't they arrived yet?

I'm almost blind from looking so hard!

Stand back, Grandpa will shield you from the wind.

Here it is, come and see!

It is the master's carriage

Mom, we're back!

Pull your head back in, it's cold outside.

Hahaha

Grandpa and Grandma

My pear blossom has grown taller again.

He's even more handsome now.

I'm naturally good-looking

Hahaha

Chunmiao didn't come.

Hmm, he didn't come.

Sister Chunmiao is pregnant again, haha!

There's another one!

Sigh, three children in three years

She herself said she wanted to rest.

But my belly just started to swell up all of a sudden.

Sister Chunmiao got pregnant so easily!

Parents must be exhausted from the journey.

It's lively with lots of people

chatting and laughing all the way

It's not hard to get through at all.

Uncle

Your mansion in the prefectural city is quite large.

Generally speaking

Every inch of land in the prefectural city is precious

It's still far inferior to a farm.

I'm quite used to living here.

It used to be just me and Laifu.

The room was so quiet I could hear myself walking, hahaha.

Your family is indeed noisy.

Liu Shunzi, what do you mean?

I'm praising you; I'm saying your house is lively.

Hahaha

Is there enough room?

The bedding is all laid out.

The kang (heated brick bed) is also heated.

Let's cook some noodles first.

Everyone took a bite and then went to rest.

We'll have a proper get-together tonight when Lei Zi gets back.

Hahaha

I also brought in the pickled vegetables I brought.

I want to eat again tonight

I'm tired of eating meat every day.

I'm starting to crave pickled vegetables.

Tiger, you're getting old.

Where am I old?

Xiaoyu, the mother of the child, is pregnant.

What

Our daughter is pregnant!

We're going to be grandparents!

Hahaha

She was pregnant

You made her travel such a long distance in the dead of winter.

The carriage was very soft.

Zhao Dashu

Mom, I'm really okay.

Sleep whenever you want

Eat what you want

You should see a doctor even if it's nothing serious.

Come tomorrow

Grandpa Grandpa

This bird can talk.

Call me dad, call me dad!

grandfather

Hahaha

Stay away from my grandson

Grandpa

I am your grandson

You are an old grandson

He is the new grandson

He also calls me grandpa

That's my grandson too.

You wish!

Does my wife miss me?

I think of you every day

First, explain to me what happened with Xiaoyu.

Why didn't you write a letter when you were pregnant?

They were still traveling slowly even though it was snowing.

My heart is one of the most

Our daughter is very resilient.

Zhao Dashu

Well

Remove all the incense.

Don't light it indoors anymore.

Where is the young lady?

Sleeping in the house

Youth is wonderful!

When I was young, all I could think about was my wife.

You're finally back!

Why did it take you so long?

There are many people, so we have to wait until everyone is finished.

Father sent another carriage to the county magistrate.

It was delayed

Many people

Grandpa and Grandma

Uncle Shunzi and the others have arrived.

You didn't see it just now.

I didn't notice but I saw a bunch of cars in the yard.

All I could think about was you coming back.

Look at others

They started memorizing texts before dawn.

Evening thoughts

You guys should all learn from this.

Okay, dinner's ready!

It's cold outside, so everyone goes inside.

Xiao Lei

Congratulations!

Congratulations on Xiaoyu's return!

Xiaoyu didn't tell you she's pregnant.

My wife is pregnant.

I'm going to be a dad, hahaha!

Xiao Lei, let go.

I forgot to mention

You child

How could you forget this?

Did you feel unwell during the journey?

Has the fetus been disturbed?

I'm perfectly fine without you.

The child is well-behaved

They didn't bother me at all.

It's good that you're alright.

Your dad is absolutely ecstatic today.

Hahaha

Drink some if you're happy

Just don't hurt yourself.

Aunt

You guys should have some too.

Baijiu (Chinese liquor) burns the throat.

I won't suffer that.

There's sweet rice wine at home.

The wine was mild and not very intoxicating.

Which one is good and which one tastes good?

Daughter, this wine is delicious.

Wife, you are pregnant

Why don't you write to me?

I'm telling you you still have the heart to study.

I was planning to come back soon.

Who knows the building and the car waiting for people

It will be too late if you delay.

I really don't feel like anything when you're not around.

I've fallen behind in my studies recently.

If it falls behind, make up for it slowly.

This time when I came back

We won't be going back to the village until at least next year's Lunar New Year.

real

I'm showing soon.

Can still run around

Do you prefer a son or a daughter?

As long as it's your child

I like them all.

However, if the first child is a son...

Parents should feel more at ease

Let's sleep.

I have to go to school tomorrow

good

I'm going to be a dad!

You didn't sleep again last night.

I'm too happy to sleep

My wife is back

Master is back

I'm going to be a dad!

Xiaoyu is pregnant.

Congratulations

A woman's pregnancy is hard.

You need to take better care of her.

I know the Master

Are you taking the prefectural examination next year?

I only found out after entering Qingshan Academy

What I learned before was far from enough.

It might be difficult to get in next year.

It's worth a try.

At least know what will be tested

I'll be more confident next time.

Then you'll come with me.

My teacher, don't tease me.

Others would laugh themselves to death if they heard this.

It doesn't necessarily have to be a winning number.

It would be good to go in and see for yourself.

Youth is wonderful!

This winter

He was probably the happiest one.

The most lively thing in the village recently

It has to be your uncle's family.

The silver was stolen completely.

Not found yet

Everyone in the village says

It was either done by someone you knew.

Either Xiao Hong is back.

If it's an acquaintance

Living in a courtyard is the most convenient.

There are also three pillars

Auntie, you can talk while you eat.

The dumplings are almost cold.

Hahaha

I came to Fucheng for sightseeing.

They all went out to walk their birds and listen to audiobooks.

Why am I memorizing this?

Distracted again

The Master's teachings are too difficult

I don't understand.

Stop trying to fool us, you've all learned all of this before.

If I had known I would have to study in the prefectural city

I'd rather die than come.

Are there any good schools suitable for them in the city of Uncle?

So you really want to leave your son in the prefectural city?

I want to buy a house.

Buy two more servants

Several children live and study together

They can also help each other improve.

Yes, it's fine if several families pool their money to buy one set.

They only read it seriously for a long time.

So you're planning to abandon the child in the prefectural city?

I can't bear to part with my child

Which set will bring you a bright future?

They are not married yet.

There was just one person in the prefectural city.

You can rest assured

With servants and companions, what's there to be afraid of?

The prefectural city not only has good academies

There was also a group of spoiled brats

Nobody cares

Whether it's good or bad, who knows?

Besides, what's the point of me arguing with you two all this time?

What does that mean?

Did your wives agree?

Hahaha

I told you this was a long shot.

Don't cook dinner.

Let's go to Hongshun Restaurant

Roast duck, pig's trotters, pear blossom white

Arrange everything

Hahaha

Someone from the lord's mansion is looking for you.

Master Zhao

The Prefect knows you have arrived in the prefectural city.

Please come over for a chat.

The prefect is looking for you

I hope nothing bad will happen.

Haha, if something really happened, you'd still be so polite as to invite me.

They were kidnapped long ago.

Students pay respects to adults

When I see you again, you'll be a scholar.

I heard they recently made a new machine.

The students only noticed the uneven density of the sowing.

Waste of seeds

I was thinking about how to make the seeds sown evenly.

This official has tried

It really works.

Do you plan to continue taking the imperial examinations in the future?

The student was not cut out to take the imperial examination.

Be a leisurely scholar

Walking the birds and listening to opera is quite nice.

So young and already planning to live like this

Actually, what students like best is still the ground.

I also want to farm after I came to the prefectural city.

But you can't buy even an acre of land nearby.

How about I give you a acre or two?

One or two acres is simply not enough space for students to conduct experiments.

Then we'll allocate a few acres from the nearby villages for you.

The students also wanted to build a enclosure to store their farm tools.

It's best to be close to the prefectural city.

The son-in-law still has to go to the city to study every day.

Why don't the adults ask on the student's behalf?

Is anyone willing to sell their farm?

This official will ask for you.

Thank you, sir.

If students really have land

We will definitely continue to study agricultural tools

Furthermore, the students wanted to try a new planting method.

Let's see if we can increase grain production further.

Increase grain production

Is what you said true?

Real students have no other skills

I just love figuring out things in the ground.

You go back first.

Awaiting news from this official

The student resigned

I refuse to believe you wouldn't be tempted by increased grain production.

Who is this Tian Wei?

Fucheng Cloth Shop Owner

Zhuangzi is his family's ancestral property.

Inherited property is not easy to move

Zhang Li

Prefect

Next

Wow

Which one is actually available for sale?

Adults can own farms near the prefectural city.

Which family doesn't have some connections?

I also own three estates.

You can't catch a wolf without risking your cub.

I really can't make anything.

How do I sell it?

How can we get it back?

How was it? The governor didn't make things difficult for you, did he?

No more reheating, I'll do it from now on.

They just asked me if I was still going to take the exam.

Then they asked me what I planned to do in the future, and that was it.

I said I wouldn't take the exam.

From now on, I'll be drinking tea and walking my birds.

Live a comfortable life

You're so unambitious

The governor can be happy

Everyone has their own ambitions.

The adults are very reasonable.

Speak

What exactly does the prefect want to do?

They want me to keep working.

Research on agricultural tools

What about that land?

First, they said they'd give one or two acres.

They also said the village would allocate several acres.

I don't care about those few acres of his land

So what's the final answer?

I moved the farm

They also put the increase in grain production into consideration.

He was clearly tempted.

This is certainly tempting.

He wants political achievements.

We want a farm

No one gives the other benefits for free.

I reckon it might actually work.

Success is possible

Even if the estate were sold to us

He must be keeping an eye on the results.

A person who can reach the position of prefect

There's no such thing as a truly unprofitable business.

I think the governor is truly moved.

The farm is likely to be successful.

If it's given, catch it.

As long as the goods are in our hands

Don't give him a chance to take it back.

You didn't say these things before.

Should all the credit be given to Lei Zi?

I misunderstood before.

Lei Zi has his own path

We can't rely on our son-in-law for everything.

Let's get ourselves up first.

We have land and industry

Have skills that others need.

Only then will my back be strong.

My belly really swelled up

I told you before that I had a child.

You still feel like you're dreaming

Previously unseen

Now I really think there's someone inside.

I never get tired of touching it every day.

My own child

Why do you find it annoying?

If you don't go back

I'm afraid I'll have to spend the New Year on the road.

Let's just stay here.

It was lively with three tables of people staying up together to welcome the New Year.

Who brings their whole family to someone else's house for the Lunar New Year?

I'm not leaving either.

The snow is so heavy

This leg crevice all the way

I'm afraid I'll really freeze to death if I go back.

Let's go in the spring.

I sold candy when I was young

I've had enough of the bad food while traveling in winter.

When she gives birth

I have to come again.

Light rain

Your maternal grandfather also wants to buy a house in the prefectural city.

The old man also wants to move in.

He couldn't bear to leave the village if he didn't move.

But he was tempted by Lei Ziyou's opportunity to study in the prefectural city.

They said if their descendants were successful...

They also need a place to stay.

Then take your time choosing.

Buy the best.

Your grandfather said

People have arrived in the prefectural city

I can't help but straighten my back when I walk.

Different perspectives

Their ideas are naturally different.

So long

Why hasn't the governor sent any news?

Has the farm gone out of business?

So what if it's yellow?

I'll buy if he sells it.

If you don't want to sell, then forget it.

You are pregnant now

Don't worry about these things.

Why did you buy so many chickens?

Eat on the road

If it gets cold, just heat it up over a fire.

Traveling in heavy snow

You're still planning to eat meat and drink alcohol?

I don't need to drive.

You must be well-nourished along the way.

What exactly do they do?

Spending money like water

Don't bother looking at it; no matter how much stuff you buy, it's not ours.

You, the head of the household, at least work in the government office.

Why do they never try to curry favor with you?

This means they don't even think much of me.

If they only have money but no powerful backers

You should find a few yamen officials to scare them.

Get some silver out.

You're crazy.

Just to scare you

They are so rich

Even a little bit of leakage would be enough for our son to pay his tuition.

When I get married

What kind of official do you think I am?

I'm just a lowly clerk running errands.

Really got the money

Those in power take the lion's share.

If something really goes wrong, I'll take the blame.

I've acted like a grandson for half my life.

I just want my son to do well in his studies.

Only they read it out.

Only then will there be a chance to turn things around.

But the Zhao family ignored me.

Not just the Zhao family

You should think about it.

Why are your neighbors unwilling to be close to you?

This won't work.

That won't work either.

Big Tree, let's drink to our hearts' content tonight!

I'm leaving tomorrow morning.

Hahaha

Just tell me what you want to eat.

I went to buy it.

Okay, okay, I'll make it all for you tonight.

Men can drink

My woman drinks too.

Hahaha

Don't bother sending it, come again next year.

Drive slowly

Don't actually drink all the way.

After my daughter and the others left

Why does the yard suddenly feel so empty?

Stay for more than a month

making a fuss every day

The sudden silence is definitely not something I'm used to.

fine

And your maternal grandfather

Old Master Qian

I can also walk my bird, drink tea, and listen to opera.

Let's stop making a fuss.

The elderly have difficulty walking in cold weather.

Don't let people freeze.

People need to go out and explore.

I'm so tired of staying indoors all day.

Straight

What did the third brother burn for me?

They have everything: food, clothes, and more.

I don't need these.

The third child is alright, though, it's not raining much.

Is the prefectural city particularly lively?

Both are good

Xiaoyu is already showing signs of pregnancy.

It's lively and fun!

I only see these few faces here every day.

I'm so annoyed

eldest and second eldest

He didn't come to see me all winter.

I'll bring two pounds of meat for the Winter Solstice.

He left before he even got comfortable sitting down.

I'm so tired of hearing it.

The old lady was going crazy.

They talked to me for over an hour.

Who made you soft-hearted and stay to listen?

Ultimately, having more sons is useless.

One truly filial son is enough.

I used to work at a food stall when I was young.

They can make everything: fried dough twists, fried dough sticks, sugar cakes, and more.

Old man, you still have so many hidden talents.

Uh you

Light rain

Why did I suddenly vomit?

My name is Doctor

It's not used because the oily smell is too strong.

Don't worry about me

The pot is almost burnt

Oh right

My pot of oil

Why did you vomit?

Things weren't always fine before.

Now I know.

It's not that I don't have morning sickness

It's a smell I've never encountered before that I dislike.

No more going into the kitchen!

Drink some brown sugar water

Drink plain water

I'm now so afraid of vomiting when I smell anything sweet.

How is my daughter?

I can't even drink sugar anymore.

All I want to do right now is drink water.

This child was eating everything just a few days ago.

She can't eat meat.

I vomit at the smell of the kitchen.

It's really nothing.

The mother is unharmed

The fetus

Morning sickness in pregnant women

It varies from person to person.

When will it get better?

Who knows, maybe it'll pass.

It will be fine naturally.

Eat lighter, less oily food these days

I paid you to come.

Just tell me to wait until he gets better on his own.

father

Xiao Lei, I want to eat sour pears.

wait for me

Do you have any fresh sour pears?

The more acidic, the better.

I wonder if these sour pears are tasty.

Um

How about it

That's the taste!

I'll try it.

This thing is edible.

My teeth are sore.

tasty

You're not allowed in the kitchen anymore, understand?

I found out the child had been making a fuss for several days.

It's all better now.

I haven't been sleeping well these past few days.

Who would have thought that a few pounds of sour pears would be more effective than a doctor?

The eldest sister is waiting for the baby to be born.

I'll bring it for you.

I haven't been with you these past few days

What have you been doing?

Don't even mention it, it's just teasing those idiots next door.

Pear Blossom, is she stupid or not?

Differences between men and women

Stop messing around with those kids outside.

They just wanted to scam me out of snacks and toys.

They kept asking us what we did.

Why do I get paid even though I don't have to work?

So what do you say?

I said capable people don't need to do the work themselves.

Just count your money at home.

Your mouth

I just hate people who approach me with ulterior motives.

Can't you earn what you want yourself?

What kind of skill is it to be constantly eyeing other people's pockets?

This has nothing to do with being poor or not.

Stay away from people with bad intentions.

Old Master Qian will be here soon.

Let's go eat.

Uncle

After I came to your house

My legs don't hurt as much as before.

Haha, me too!

My appetite is better than before.

That must mean my family's food is better.

It's lively with lots of people

Feeling good every day

Her health naturally improved as well.

The old man used to worry about everything at home.

Now you don't have to worry about anything.

Of course it feels comfortable.

I dare not even think about living to be a hundred.

Live to 70

Watching you all have babies

My life is complete.

Xiaoyu, next year will be my 60th birthday.

Are you coming back?

Of course, we should ask the master what month his birthday is.

October

Just right

I'll bring the baby back to celebrate your birthday then.

Hehe, okay, I'll wait.

He and his child would stay in the village for months at a time.

I can't stay in the prefectural city alone.

They ate their fill and then ran off.

Or should I go and call the First Master and Second Master back?

They didn't come willingly.

What does it mean?

Let's call them back.

Why should they get off easy?

Call my eldest and second eldest brothers back to keep me company.

No one else

Especially don't call him Three Pillars

The old lady called the two gentlemen over to stay up all night for the New Year.

I knew it

She'll have to come to us in the end.

Eat more at your mother's bedside

Maybe we can bring some back.

Dad, I'm going to keep Grandma company too.

ah

go back

Your grandma doesn't want to see you.

I'll go.

The old lady said

Only the eldest and second masters were allowed to enter.

No one else is allowed.

You can take a lackey's words seriously?

Isn't it just a case of wielding a chicken feather as an imperial edict?

You little brat, it's Chinese New Year today, I don't want to beat you up.

Get home right now

Keep bothering me

I actually did it.

Babies, thank you all for liking to dress up as a peasant girl.

Raising kids and farming is incredibly fun and exciting!

The next season is currently in rapid production.

More exciting things to come!

New Year's greetings tomorrow

Do I have to give my baby money as a New Year's gift?

The first year of a new bride

My husband and I together

It must be quite a lot.

Let's keep our money separately.

You have to give me

I manage the family finances

Why?

Then whoever earns it should keep it.

Eat tonight and stay up all night

Eat as much as you like

Madam Xie

What did Mom call me here for?

Nothing, I'm bored

You guys talk to me.

Um

This year has been tough for me.

Having many children also means higher expenses.

My family is having an even harder time.

The silver was stolen.

Once upon a time, there was a mother

She was not kind to her son at all.

The eldest son truly deserves his education.

The story was told very well.

Mom is definitely deliberately messing with me tonight.

It must be the people around her who stirred things up.

I'm going to find my uncle after the New Year and sell him.

Replace with a new batch

Let's go together.

Happy Chinese New Year! Happy Chinese New Year!

Tell the doorman

Sanzhuzi is not allowed to enter today.

You are not allowed to come for New Year's greetings anymore.

He'll never be allowed to step foot in my house in his entire life.

You bastard, how dare you stop me? Get out of my way!

The master gave the order

You are not allowed to enter.

Mother on the first day of the Lunar New Year

Sanzhuzi came to offer New Year's greetings.

Why can't you let him in?

Don't you know why I'm lying down?

Did you compensate me for the silver bracelet?

The child was young at that time

It was all an accident before.

He now realizes he was wrong.

I'm not smart

But I'm afraid of dying.

After the New Year, I'll go find the clan chief and sever ties with him.

You are not allowed to come during Chinese New Year from now on.

I don't want him to wear mourning clothes even when I'm dead.

Mother, he's still your grandson.

If Dad were still alive

You think your dad is good

Go up the mountain to find him.

Why don't you go down and find him?

Is it wrong for me to want to protect myself?

After I die, boss

He dares to go to my grave.

Get rid of me.

My son remembered.

Dad, where's my money?

I want to go in.

Don't come to your grandma's house again, go back home.

Why would he need those things while he's lying down?

What did I do?

Shut up

He dared not give me my New Year's money today!

I'll show you my abilities another day.

Say it again.

My uncle was so angry he lost his mind.

Nonsense

How dare you say such things?

What will happen in the future?

I will definitely discipline him severely.

Your grandma is so stingy!

She's so rich now.

That's all I'll give you.

Sun Tzu's Ten Coins

The new bride is thirty words

That's already considered overpaying.

Give me our money and I'll keep it.

I'm keeping it.

You don't believe me

If my home isn't safe, I'll hide.

Then let each do their own thing.

What An Nai needs most right now isn't money, it's manpower.

What does that mean?

No one visits each other in winter

She was so frustrated.

Let's spend more time chatting with her about village gossip in the future.

She'll naturally remember our kindness when she's happy.

Does she still have those 120 taels?

So don't be afraid of the hassle and take your time.

May my parents be healthy and well in the new year.

May the old man have a happy and healthy New Year.

Why are you kneeling before me? Get up!

In my heart

The old man is also an elder.

Congratulations on getting rich!

Pear Blossom, how much New Year's money did you receive?

What does this have to do with you?

Your family is so rich

There must be a lot.

I eat at home

There's nowhere to spend money at home.

What does it matter to you how much you want?

Stop asking and keep going to offer New Year's greetings.

Today I'm going to fill my pockets to the brim.

Hmph, I'm leaving.

I'm going to the main hall.

My eldest sister got rich

My two pockets were completely full.

You've prayed all over the entire alley.

The people of Fucheng are very generous.

The Zhao family isn't as rich as we think.

Pear Blossom didn't even dare to say how much money she would receive as New Year's gifts.

Haha, you've wasted your eyes!

His cloak alone was worth several dozen taels of silver.

Pure gold and gemstones on head

Two servants followed behind.

You haven't always wanted this

I happen to have a farm here.

How big and far

How much silver

The suburbs are not far from the prefectural city.

60 mu of fertile land

30 mu of wasteland

There is also a complete courtyard.

90 mu

Livestock and farmers were also included.

A total of 4,700 taels

The students bought

You're not willing to negotiate at all.

I'd be so grateful if they'd even sell it to me.

snort

Daughter's matter is settled

Quickly give me the silver.

It really went to the farm.

60 mu of good land

30 mu of wasteland

The house is ready

The transfer of ownership was completed in the afternoon for 4,700 taels of silver.

Wait for me to get the money

If we really want to move to the farm

I like farms with big spaces.

Birds can fly freely

It's all ours.

Why is Governor Coco suddenly so agreeable?

He wants political achievements.

Can grain production really increase?

For him, it was a ladder to climb up.

After that, the credit really came out.

He won't swallow it all.

Let's kick each other away again.

What did they say in the play?

Kill the donkey after it has served its purpose

The farm has been transferred to the Zhao family's name.

He's really in a hurry.

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, the officials were summoned back to process the contract.

The master has been coming to the lady's room every day lately.

It turns out it was all for Zhuangzi

I thought he was reminiscing about the old days.

If he speaks directly

Would I really not give it to you?

It's not that I'm reluctant to part with Zhuangzi.

What makes me sad is

He used our marital bond to trick me into agreeing.

Miss

He said at the time of his marriage that he would never take a concubine.

In less than three years, the new accountant was established.

Later one after another

Two or three more a year

I should have understood long ago.

At least the lady still has her dowry money and children.

I can't keep a man's heart

I must keep the money.

Madam, this is the farm's money, please keep it safe.

The old woman put it away

Over the years, most of the family's...

All expenses were covered by my dowry.

These 4,700 taels are also my child's.

My lord, I am tired today.

Go to Hua Meimei's place.

Madam, what is this?

I'm not feeling well today.

I don't want to keep people

Then you should rest well.

I'll come see you again in a few days.

Why does my wife have to do this?

hypocrisy

I don't want to settle

The prefect has already sold the estate to me, take a look.

Zhenzhen has changed masters.

Your servant kowtows to his master.

Get up and show me the place first.

This house is so well built!

The prefect's wife comes here every summer to escape the heat.

So it has been continuously repaired.

How many houses are there in total?

A total of 68 rooms in three courtyards.

Hahaha

My 4,700 taels were well spent.

quack quack

This is much more comfortable than living in the city.

There are currently 30 chickens in the village.

35 ducks and 5 cows

3 mule carts

There are still fish in the river

There are also dozens of fruit trees

There is also grain stored in the granary.

Buying a manor and bringing so much stuff with it

master

Previously, the prefect's wife would take a 30/70 cut of the rent.

Then continue with Panax notoginseng.

real

The farmers did all the work.

Thirty percent is not much anymore.

Why would I change it?

Thank you, sir.

Thank you, sir.

How's the new master of the manor?

Is the rent going to increase?

If the price doesn't increase, the split will remain the same as before (30/70).

I'll take 30%.

The same thing the new master said himself.

That's great! That's great!

I only found out today.

Their lives could be so miserable.

Three percent looks like a lot.

But that was a family's food rations for a year.

What percentage is normal Zhuangzi given?

20%

With only 20%, they're barely hanging on.

The farm is more spacious than the city.

I'll move there after the Lantern Festival.

In the city, people were left to guard the houses.

We won't rent it out.

The old man's house has been repaired as instructed.

It only took three days to get better.

Everything is packed

Just waiting for the master to move in

I'll have a bowl of brown sugar ginger tea with each of us before I leave.

Frozen like this

What to do if you get sick on the road?

Thank you very much, sir.

father

They were dressed worse than I was back then.

Shōdo no Miko

Too many people are ruining their health by overworking themselves.

Do we still have any coarse cloth at home?

They were all left at home for the servants to wear.

Then buy again

Since I have become their master

You can't have your own family members in winter.

They didn't even have a decent set of clothes.

Buy cloth and cotton together

One set of winter clothes for each person

When a gift

The Zhao family is moving away.

I won't be able to trick Pear Blossom into giving me snacks anymore.

Moved again

How nice a house did they actually buy?

They have money

Buy whatever you want

You, sir, said my son and Lihua...

Stop dreaming.

Everyone is moving away.

You don't even know where their new house is?

The relationship wasn't good before.

What can we use to establish a family relationship?

The two neighbors next door are so annoying!

They kept asking where we were moving to.

If you don't want to talk about it, then don't.

There's no need to get angry over unimportant people.

But I'm a little reluctant to leave my other friends.

Life is full of partings and reunions.

I used to be reluctant to leave the village.

Later, I met new friends.

We haven't left the prefectural city.

I just want them to come back and visit.

Oh yeah, I can also bring back some snacks to play with them.

How many people are on the farm?

42

Make all of them winter clothes

Okay, do them all.

Buy the adult quantity

The extra ones can still be used

Make shoes for them again

What color should I choose?

Black is dirt-resistant.

Cotton was also purchased in sufficient quantities to last through the winter.

The master said

This is the fabric for winter clothes for 42 people in the village.

For me

Everyone has

My child can wear a cotton-padded jacket now.

The whole family can have it

With this outfit

We won't be cold next winter either.

Is Lei Zi's current academy...?

It was even more tiring than taking the imperial examination for the lowest degree.

Almost every day felt like a training camp.

Once inside, I realized how vast the difference was between a Xiucai (a successful candidate in the county-level imperial examination) and a Juren (

Daily training

I would have gone crazy long ago.

Smarter than me

There are many people who work harder than me.

Sometimes I'm afraid

In the end, he was just like his uncle.

You can't get in even if you study your whole life

Bai Hua's family's money

It also cannot grant Xiaoyu an imperial title.

Fame and fortune are important

Life is more important

It's time to sleep and time to exercise.

Don't try to outdo your books with your body.

Xiaoyu said the same thing.

These glutinous rice balls are so small!

I used to be so full after just two or three bowls.

Oh

Small snacks, one bite at a time.

The filling is also less likely to leak.

It also contains dried osmanthus flowers.

Mother, have a good taste tonight.

good

After eating, I'll go see the lanterns tonight.

I've lived this long

I haven't properly seen the Fucheng Lantern Festival yet.

Mmm, the glutinous rice balls are really delicious.

Are there any tables available at our restaurant tonight?

It was booked long ago

Eat and drink your fill before going to see the lanterns.

The road is not far

Or shall we walk?

Yeah, I need to walk slowly.

Just in time to see the festive atmosphere

I've lived this long

This is the first time I've seen so many lights.

Mom, slow down.

There were more people ahead.

Don't go into crowds

Who bumped into you?

I can't stand it.

You lead the way

I'm not going. You come with me to the restaurant first.

I also felt that life was more important than seeing the lanterns.

Mother, I want this.

The house has a whole yard.

This one is prettier.

Buying things for the holiday and not letting the kids be happy?

This is for the baby in my older sister's belly.

purchase

Oh well, as long as you're happy.

The master's favorite roast duck

Grandpa Qian's favorite braised pig's trotters are all available.

My table is full of my favorite foods.

Pear blossom white

I managed to snag the last jar!

Fill

We haven't even seen the most exciting part yet!

Then my mother and I will go down for a walk.

I'm not going.

The area below was so crowded.

I'll be waiting for you in the private room too.

I'll go with my mother and the others too.

There are many people outside

I'll go keep an eye on things.

If you see too many people, turn back and don't try to squeeze through.

Know

Hahaha

It's quieter with fewer people.

Another pot

Another pot, hahaha!

I couldn't squeeze in at all.

People packed together

I also heard someone shout that a child was lost.

I was so scared that I turned and ran.

I'm not going anywhere tonight.

Let's watch from upstairs.

So many people

No one from the government was maintaining order.

Haha, let's keep drinking tonight!

Daughter-in-law opens the door

Strange door is broken

You'll sleep outside tonight.

My wife can't bear to part with it.

Dad, you've got the wrong room.

I'll take you to another room.

I knew it!

How could my wife not want me?

daughter in law

I miss you so much!

father

Aha

Lei Zi, you didn't sleep all night?

Plain congee with meat filling and poached egg

Lei Zi, you had a good night!

I'm pretty good at drinking, right?

Ahhh

We haven't had enough time together yet.

Why did you move again so quickly?

I'll come back to live here again.

I'll get together with you all again sometime.

This family is very mysterious.

It's really comfortable to be around.

The children are also well-taught.

My daughter loves pear blossoms.

They really moved everything out.

It looks like they've left.

My two houses are separated by only one wall.

What do you want to do?

Secretly make a hole in the wall

Go in and grab some valuables.

Seal it back

Who knows?

I think you want to go to jail.

Fortune favors the bold.

First, check if they left anyone behind before making any sudden moves.

The heated kang (traditional heated bed) and fire wall were lit last night.

The room was very warm.

Where do flowers come from in winter?

Greenhouse-raised

Flowers can be replaced after they wither.

There are also greenhouses here.

I really got a good deal on this estate.

Xiao Lei, I like it here.

As long as you like it.

The academy will be farther away from you than before.

I need to get up early anyway.

It's the same if we put morning reading on a horse-drawn carriage now.

Waiting for you to produce

I plan to take a month's leave.

Why are you making me postpartum meals?

I'm really bad at cooking.

But I want to be with you and the children.

Such a big thing as giving birth

I am not home

I can't concentrate on my studies

That's more like it.

By the way, I'm further along in my pregnancy now.

Prenatal education can begin.

prenatal education

From now on, every night

Talk to your child.

Tell a story

Read something

He can hear now

certainly

His wife hasn't come out yet.

Start grabbing the doll now.

Oh

They start focusing on academics even before the child is born.

I feel sorry for him.

Ha, who told you to teach the Four Books and Five Classics?

Prenatal education is talking to him/her.

Tell a story

Oh, that scared me to death!

I'll buy some children's drawing books later.

Read a passage every night

I know how to do this.

This oil paper shop really goes all out.

This was used by the prefect's wife for growing vegetables in the winter.

This fertile land was previously used to grow rice and wheat.

Planting millet on wasteland

I personally arranged the spring plowing this year.

This fertile land is the first to test new methods of rice cultivation.

master

The harvest from this field is the staple food for the villagers.

Don't worry, I won't recklessly risk everyone's lives.

This is also called a river.

To me it's just a small stream.

Father, this river needs to be widened and deepened after spring.

During previous droughts

This place was the first to lose water.

If widened and deepened

Several more crops can survive.

There are several wells in the village

One bite next to the kitchen

There is only one well on ninety acres of land.

Take a few more sips

We can't rely entirely on rain.

The number of livestock also increased after the start of spring.

yes

I'm used to you being home every day.

Suddenly leaving tomorrow

I'm still a little unaccustomed to it.

So many people at home are with you.

Don't worry, I'll be back after school.

That exam this year

Are you really going to go?

The teacher asked me to try it with him.

I'll just treat it as a preview of the exam venue.

Go for it, it's not shameful if you fail.

Several families in the village also took the imperial examination for children this year.

Uncle Jia Dong will definitely go again.

As long as you don't come looking for us in the prefectural city next year, that's fine.

The village chief's family, Uncle Shunzi's family, and those few

Whether you win or not depends on luck.

If none of them work

Dad's going to brag again about being a scholar.

Dad is actually very talented

It means late enlightenment

And he's unwilling to endure hardship.

During last year's exam period

Dad actually works quite hard too.

So now I run away whenever I hear the word "study".

I was really scared.

By the way

Is anyone in your family taking the imperial examination this year?

Yes, and I think he can win.

No wonder the old man has been talking about going home lately.

This is because she's worried about her grandson's exam.

It is estimated that in a few more days

They couldn't sit still anymore.

ah

Why did Dad and the others all choose to take the exam this year?

Will I die if I wait two years?

Don't worry, those people in the village have only been to school for a few years.

How can I compare to you?

As long as you don't get nervous

At the usual level

You'll definitely pass.

I will pass the imperial examination this year.

Next year, your father will take you two brothers to the prefectural city to take the imperial examination for the title of Xiucai.

Can it really pass?

Absolutely

Remember, don't be nervous.

It's not like it's my exam.

Why is my heart pounding?

I want to know too.

I'm going to the county town to buy pig brains tomorrow.

Why buy that thing?

Eat brain to improve brain function

Give my son some nourishment

My wife says fish brains are good for replenishing milk.

Fish eyes are also good for eyesight

Then I'll buy fish.

If they're not for sale, I'll go down into the river and fish them out.

In fact, the Master already said...

Let the children try it.

I don't expect it to actually work.

I feel like I've brought honor to my ancestors just by getting into the exam hall.

How many pounds and ounces does my child weigh?

We ourselves don't know.

What's there to be nervous about?

Just consider it an opportunity to broaden your horizons.

However, if Zhao Jiadong still doesn't win this year...

Zhao Dawen is probably going crazy.

Hmm, I'm more worried about that child's mentality.

Last year, I panicked and destroyed the paper.

This year, I told him not to be nervous.

He was probably getting more and more nervous.

Why

That's enough, daughter.

Don't buy anymore

How could the two of us finish that?

These things are not available in my hometown.

These are all things you and Mom like.

One more vehicle can fit it.

Please take good care of Xiaoyu.

Don't just think of me

Mother, rest assured

Come back for the Chinese New Year at the end of the year!

I will definitely reply

Parents, please drive carefully.

Go back inside, don't stand there in the wind.

Light rain

As soon as they left

Why does a piece of my heart feel empty?

You'll get used to it after a while.

In a few months

This came out

It's hard to have a quiet place at home.

Don't rush to have another child after you give birth.

Take care of your health first.

Got it

Mom and Dad, how did you actually make it back?

My dear grandson is studying.

He was studying hard inside and I had to call him.

Don't focus on studying

I'm going to take a nap first.

I've been traveling for several days.

My legs don't even belong to me anymore.

This is truly exhausting.

Is it hard to study if I lose weight?

Milk

What if I don't pass the exam this time?

Then I'll take the test again next year.

ah

Being able to step into the examination room is already an honor.

I don't expect you to be exceptionally successful.

It's okay if you don't pass the exam.

The most important thing is to come out safely.

Don't put too much pressure on yourself.

Sleep when you should.

Eat what you want.

Father and Mother, you two seem like completely different people after your trip to the prefectural city.

What are you changing? Eat it quickly!

You need to eat well to have the energy for the exam.

Eat quickly as the exam approaches.

No one is allowed to stay up late at night.

We listen to our grandparents.

If you don't pass the exam, try again next year.

My family isn't a sore loser.

Only three days left

When are you finally going to take the kids to the county town?

I go see it every day.

The two guesthouses in the county town were both fully booked.

I told you to book it a long time ago.

You insist that going early is a waste of money.

The house in Lao San's county town is still there.

I'll borrow it from the housekeeper for a few days.

Then why don't you hurry up and get out of here?

The exam hasn't started yet.

My mind is a mess.

I'll stay at your place for a few days.

Jia Dong is taking an exam

Your Excellency, please forgive me.

If the master took it away

The younger ones can't make decisions

I am your master's elder brother.

You dare to make excuses even when you're just borrowing a room for a few days?

Without the master's orders

I dare not open the house without permission.

Good luck waiting for the third brother to come back

Let's see how you explain this.

Are there any vacant courtyards?

We can rent for several months.

All the rooms near the exam venue are already rented out.

This place is far from the exam venue.

However, it's habitable.

It can also be used to start a fire and cook.

I rent

I'm saying I'm not going to take the exam.

Will they tear me apart?

I've finalized the deal for my own house.

Ten coins a day

It's so cheap for my dad and me to share a room.

Cancel

Renting a yard for three months would be a waste of money.

Shut up, the family listens to me now.

All you need to do is raise your son properly.

The teacher is about to take the exam

Help my grandson grab another handful.

Memorize these points again.

When answering questions, prioritize stability.

Don't rush

I've added the sesame oil money.

As long as the child is safe.

Fu Ke didn't take it.

In case it's discovered and used as cheating

I have nowhere to cry.

Just fall asleep.

I'll be mentally alert tomorrow morning.

Better than spending another night in a daze memorizing.

I'll bring some crushed biscuits and meat floss for lunch.

Don't drink too much water

So that you won't always want to leave the palace once you enter.

How confident are you in Jia Dong's chances?

I'm begging you.

I didn't set the question.

I wasn't the one who answered the question.

Let me sleep for a while.

Oh my goodness!

So many people

Just a few recordings

Grandpa, I'm going to queue up.

Play slowly, don't rush.

Uncle and Lei were able to continue taking the imperial examination to become scholars.

He's no ordinary person.

Mom, let's rent a mule cart in advance next time.

I'm out of breath after walking such a short distance.

Going home after the exam

You three, father and son, give me an hour's walk every day.

No food until you've walked enough

Mother has arrived

I'm out of breath after walking such a short distance.

Going home after the exam

You give me an hour every day.

Don't rush or panic when you go in.

Don't be nervous.

I know

Are you in such a hurry to be reborn? Slow down!

Wang opened the door

Are you crazy?

What have I been striving for all these years?

We can't afford to make another mistake.

This time absolutely not!

Read the question first.

Look carefully, look carefully.

I've memorized all of these.

Why can't I remember why?

Is that someone from the Song family?

Hahaha

I used to have a maternal family.

I used to take my mother's family's money time and time again.

Silver to fill the Zhao family's hole

But now it's gone.

Jia Dong's mother is here

How did you do on the exam?

I didn't know the question was difficult.

They were all ones I hadn't memorized.

Not all of them are ones I've memorized.

I clearly know how

But my mind was blank from the start.

I recognize all those words.

I don't know how to answer when we put them together.

fine

Just nervous

I went to the outhouse four or five times.

I gradually calmed down later.

Have you finished?

Finished

Finally, I finished writing it all right on time.

Are you hungry?

I was hungry and only ate some pancakes for lunch.

He went home

grandfather

I felt good this time.

I can answer most of the questions.

My grandson is amazing, hahaha!

I couldn't solve one of the questions.

That's impressive!

My family's ancestral graves are emitting auspicious smoke, hahaha!

Jia Dong Zhao Jia Dong

After Jia Dong, third to last

ah

Ahhh

My son passed.

My grandson only had one question he couldn't answer, right?

How come it's last place?

Dad only said that he had written it all down.

It doesn't mean they're all correct.

oh

Yes, yes, I'm confused, hahaha

It's over.

My son is not bad.

No matter what, he's still better than the Song family.

I always say my son is amazing.

No matter what, he's still better than the Song family.

They also have more than 40 people.

Your son is third from last.

How long did Jia Dong study?

They've only been in school for a few years.

It's because you're bad at studying.

The imperial examination was not successful.

Even teaching your son won't work.

I even suspect that your title of scholar was obtained through dishonest means.

You deserve a beating.

Zhao Dawen, how dare you hit me!

My wife was wrong, I was wrong.

Dad, you can't beat Mom

Can't you just avoid provoking her in the future?

How was I supposed to know she was so crazy?

You actually all

The tension was just there.

Don't be nervous in the next game.

You are really capable

I can do it

See? My son is just better than everyone else.

Only one game left

I've been here the first two times.

Don't be nervous this time.

It may stink, but at least I'm not nervous right now.

Zhao Jiadong, you've also taken the third exam.

Your eldest sister is still living as a concubine in someone else's household.

What kind of person makes what kind of account

This place suits you quite well.

After the exam, Mom bought pork belly.

I'll stew it for you when I get back.

Parents

I failed the exam.

How could you have passed the first two games?

I drew the number next to the outhouse.

The smoke made my head spin.

Didn't I bring you a handkerchief?

I won't answer the questions if the environment is bad.

Have you finished writing the questions?

Only half written

They survived the first two games.

Why did this have to happen in the last game?

Why wait for the results if you haven't finished writing?

Let's go back to the village tomorrow.

This trip cost me all my rent and food expenses for nothing.

What will the villagers laugh at us when we get back?

What's this? In two years...

Those who started school later all passed the exam.

He hasn't passed the exam yet.

That's what's truly shameful.

This time it was because I drew a bad account.

Just avoid it next time.

Do you really think it's just because of a bad account?

Last year, I nervously knocked over the inkstone.

The first game of the year almost caused a complete breakdown.

I taught him for many years

According to his knowledge

How come I always come in last place?

So what should we do?

His heart couldn't withstand the big test.

The more failures you experience in the future

The less confident

It will only get harder

Then copy the book.

I make money by copying books, just like you.

We can't let them starve to death.

What's with that expression?

Jia Dong's handwriting has never been very good.

But he's been training for so many years!

The requirement for copying books is that the characters be as neat as if they were engraved.

His handwriting is crooked

No matter how much I practice, I can't get it to look like that.

you mean

Even copying books is not allowed.

I'm worried too.

Unable to pass the imperial examination

Copying books is not allowed either.

His heart couldn't withstand the big test.

I can't improve my handwriting.

I really have no other choice.

So how will he make a living in the future?

Parents

I heard everything you just said.

Jia Dong

I'm not going to study anymore.

Can't I even take the preliminary examination again?

After failing the preliminary examination, there is still the county-level scholar.

After the Xiucai (a successful candidate in the county-level imperial examinations) comes the Juren (another successful candidate in the provincial-level

When will it end?

I focused on practicing calligraphy.

Others practice ten times

I practiced it a hundred times.

You can always practice until you succeed.

Are you really sure?

I don't regret it.

Once you've made a decision, there's no turning back.

My father then taught me to practice my handwriting until I could copy books.

Second cousin, you didn't pass the exam, did you?

I knew you couldn't do it.

My aunt used to laugh at me for not being able to pronounce the flowers correctly.

Aren't you the same?

You won't pass the exam next year either.

I won't pass the exam the year after next.

We're both hopeless cases.

Don't pay attention to mad dogs

I know

No rest

I can't fall asleep even when I lie down.

ah

I don't believe it.

He can't even master a few words in his entire life

This year, seedlings will be raised first, then rice seedlings will be transplanted.

Plant the seedlings first

Pull it out and replant it

For another

I also plan to raise fish in the rice paddies.

Rice-fish farming

This is the farmers' food supply for a whole year!

The young lady's seedling is much stronger than before.

The thick stuff used to be squeezed into a ball.

There isn't even a place where it can be opened regularly.

It would be strange if he could grow strong.

I've farmed all my life

I couldn't even understand such a simple principle.

Where is the fish?

He's doing well and has grown quite a bit.

It really is possible to raise them in rice paddies

Daughter, why are you running around in the fields again?

She's almost due and still not calming down.

Dad, you're almost a grandfather!

Let's stop nagging.

Speaking of children

I've already thought of a name.

What name

boy Zhao Youcai

Talented throughout life

Girl Zhao Meili

How wonderful it is to be dignified and beautiful!

Miss's father

From now on, people will call me Beautiful Mother.

Am I still alive?

You can choose the name yourselves.

I can always come up with a nickname for you, like Yuanbao.

Gold ingot or silver ingot?

My grandson is of course a gold ingot.

The father has also decided on the child's name.

boy Zhao Youcai

Girl Zhao Meili

We'll name my daughter-in-law ourselves.

I also thought of a second girl named Zhao Piaoliang (meaning "pretty Zhao").

father

Please leave your name to me.

Xiao Lei, I heard you registered for this year's imperial examination.

What? You're taking another exam?

I signed up mainly to accompany my teacher to broaden his horizons.

You didn't pass the exam again, did you?

Dad, I definitely won't pass the exam this year.

Becoming a Juren (a successful candidate in the imperial examinations) is not that easy.

It's good that I didn't pass the exam.

I almost scared you to death.

Oh

It's good if you don't get into college

I can finally relax.

Other fathers-in-law hope their sons-in-law will pass the imperial examination.

Why are you still hoping he won't pass?

Why don't you two take the exam together?

Your grandfather even wrote me a letter.

Every sentence is a test.

You can do it!

I don't even know my own worth.

I'm the one who got the title of Xiucai (a scholar who passed the imperial examinations).

I've run out of ideas.

It's really difficult to become a scholar.

Confucius himself said that he might not be able to pass it on the first try.

So don't push yourself.

If all else fails

We'd be perfectly fine as rich folks.

Since you have to take the exam

Can you still take leave to be with me during my postpartum period?

Can you please

I've already spoken to the Master.

I didn't go to the academy for a month after you gave birth.

Taking care of you and your child at home

Not afraid of delay

There will be more after the exam

You only have one child.

That's why your wife gave birth to your child.

If you don't serve, who will?

The child cries at night

You come more

Don't let Xiaoyu develop health problems due to improper postpartum care.

I know

Why did it take Laifu so long to get here?

Besides running around selling goods

He even went back to repair his parents' graves.

Rebuild

In the past, we were so poor that we couldn't even afford a decent coffin.

Life is better now

We can't let them suffer in the afterlife.

Pear Blossom was right before.

What I couldn't afford before

It can be added now.

This is a big deal.

Let Laifu take his time.

No rush to come back

Mother, it was just as hot when you were pregnant with me.

No

Back then, I even had to cover my stomach at night in the summer.

I'm probably carrying a fire baby.

Nonsense

He doesn't bother with anything else.

They specifically roasted me.

You're so hot right now

Waiting for you to recover after childbirth

It happened to be the hottest time of the year

daughter

Is it too late for me to regret it now?

Babies, thank you all for liking to dress up as a peasant girl.

Raising kids and farming is incredibly fun and exciting!

The next season is currently in rapid production.

More exciting things to come!

Remember to click to reserve and add to your favorites!

daughter

Is it really true that ice can't be used during postpartum confinement?

I'll die of heat.

Use less in the latter half of the night.

How can anyone endure this heat?

Mother, you are still the best.

Oh

Um

Mom, do you think my feet are as round as a cornbread bun?

Why is it so swollen again?

From now on, Mom will give you a massage every afternoon.

Good health

However, the moon has already arrived.

Production could happen at any time

Um

My daughter had a stomachache at night.

Don't hold back

I don't sleep soundly at night

Call the midwife immediately if there is any movement.

You guys are even more nervous than I am.

By the time something really happens, it will be too late to take it slow.

I want to eat cold noodles for lunch.

Eat cold food again

You need to rest and recuperate after giving birth.

I also have to feed the baby spicy food.

Cannot be cold, cannot be eaten indiscriminately

I'll be breastfeeding babies from now on.

Avoid certain foods before breastfeeding.

Is there any hope left for the future?

I will take care of the children

Even if I'm not here, there are still servants.

It won't tire you out

Let's have barbecue tonight.

Roasted chicken and roasted fish

Roasted whole lamb

Add all chili peppers

I asked someone to prepare

She doesn't complain about the heat every day.

Why do I suddenly want to eat spicy food again?

She said you can't eat anything indiscriminately after giving birth.

Now I just want to satisfy my craving for words.

When your mother gave birth to Xiaoyu

I was able to lie down for three days at least

Raw pear blossoms are even worse

Take a day off

He turned around and went to do the laundry.

My daughter must never suffer like this again.

Lei Zi, I think she's actually feeling anxious lately.

First time giving birth

How could one be truly unafraid?

So she was afraid

I'll have a good talk with her tonight.

After giving birth this time

At least give it a few years

Let's talk about the second one.

It will take a few years.

It wasn't you who insisted on eating a whole table of food.

My eyes want to feast!

But my stomach says it can't eat.

Um

My older sister is now well-fed.

So I can't eat as much as before.

Pear Blossom knows so much

Xiao Lei, don't they look like two pig trotters?

Okay, I'll press it for you.

Honey, let's have two kids in the future.

One son and one daughter is best

What if you have two daughters?

Father is probably in pain.

I also want my first child to be a son.

It's not that I'm sexist.

I don't want my parents to be called childless again.

Xiaoyu, I know you're scared.

What am I afraid of?

Childbirth is painful

At worst, I won't have any more children.

Let's just get through this.

Who told you I was scared?

But Dad also feels that you haven't been acting quite well lately.

I'm really not afraid

Her belly is so big

Even if the guillotine is brought up, it has to be done.

Don't say such things

Oh

Xiao Lei

What's wrong? My stomach hurts.

Call the doctor, I'm bleeding.

Why is there bleeding all of a sudden?

The cervix is ​​not dilated at all.

It's not time to give birth yet.

Let's eat breakfast first.

You're already bleeding and you're still thinking about eating.

If you really want to have a baby, you need to be well-fed.

Otherwise, where would the strength come from?

Two heartbeats

Both mother and child are well.

No problems were found.

I was so scared!

I'm not going to the academy today.

What's wrong

The child hardly moved today.

Xiao Lei, I'm scared

Two heartbeats are still fine.

Why is there still no movement?

If you keep turning the floor tiles, you'll wear them all through.

You all go to sleep

I'll keep watch tonight.

Call me immediately if there is any noise.

Yuanbao, why don't you move a little?

Xiao Lei, my stomach hurts.

I call for help

I'm about to give birth, I'm one centimeter dilated.

Open one finger

Mom will be with you

Let's go

Go to the delivery room

How much did the midwife dilate?

Less than three fingers

I was in pain for half the night.

Only this much

Don't rush, it will be quick after three fingers.

Mom, I'm hungry

Give me a bowl of noodles

Giving birth is the most strenuous activity.

Mom, it hurts so much.

It's almost here, just be patient.

Push hard, follow my lead!

Ahhh

Why hasn't it been born yet?

I didn't even wait this long to see your mother give birth.

Stop forwarding it, it won't help those inside.

What are you doing?

I'm afraid something might happen to the child if we delay too long.

I can only help the lady.

Ahhh

I'm going to be a dad!

I'm going to be a master!

Our Zhao family has a worthy successor.

Little Lei, you bastard!

I didn't do anything.

Why did she scold you?

Maybe because the child is mine

Congratulations, sir!

Happy to have an adopted son

Where's my wife?

How's my daughter?

Mother and child are safe

The lady was very tired.

Postpartum care requires proper rest.

ah

Why

Giving birth is truly a brush with death for women.

Mom, when will I be able to wear pants?

I asked the midwife to take another look.

The bleeding has stopped.

But I'll wait for the pants.

First, wrap a silk petticoat around your neck.

To avoid rubbing the wound

My face has been getting new births all my life.

The child was lost all day.

Oh

Mother, he doesn't resemble anyone else at all.

Newborns are all like this

You'll see when it grows out.

His full name is Zhao Jingxuan

Jingxuan sounds good

Let's keep Yuanbao as my nickname.

Otherwise, Dad will definitely be disappointed.

I was in so much pain last night

It gave birth to such a tiny thing.

Does your wife's wound still hurt?

It burns with the slightest movement.

It hurts even when I don't move

Why did you suddenly scream so miserably last night?

The child couldn't come out for a long time.

The midwife cut it directly.

They dare to cut with scissors

I'll settle accounts with them.

sit down

The midwife did nothing wrong

The child can't come out

This is the only way in critical moments

But I wanted to have this child

He really suffered a great deal.

I know

From now on, for me

Be good to your son for life

Remember this

Don't worry, I'll remember this for the rest of my life.

This baby is a boy.

Our mission is now complete.

It's fine if we don't have any more children.

Are you sure you want to sleep in separate rooms from now on?

I'll go ask the doctor.

What to ask?

Ask if there are any methods of contraception for men.

I really don't want you to suffer like this anymore.

My mother's health was also damaged after giving birth to me.

Later, he fell seriously ill and never recovered.

I was in so much pain I didn't sleep well all night.

Go to sleep now.

I'm watching the child.

You just need to focus on taking care of your health now.

We agreed beforehand that I would bring it myself.

Let me help you heal your injury first.

It's so small, I hope I won't break it if I use too much force.

My grandson, look at that face.

I'll give you a hug too.

Ah ah

Why is he crying? Did I hurt him?

Did you pee?

Where's the wet nurse? Come quick!

No urine means hunger.

Feed my grandson quickly, he can't go hungry.

Um

Xiao Lei put another bowl of ice.

I'm almost cooked.

No, the doctor said I shouldn't be exposed to cold during postpartum confinement.

I still have injuries.

Sweating profusely

What to do if a wound becomes infected?

Look at your son again.

Are we in postpartum confinement or in a steamer?

I'll add another pot.

ah

That's more like it.

It's finally been a month!

I can go out now.

I can wash my hair and take a shower now.

Look how you've been holding it in.

You should go back to the academy now.

I've fallen behind on a lot of my studies.

I also believe that Master Cheng comes once every three days.

The coursework hasn't stopped.

But after a while

I had to take the imperial examination to become a scholar.

Will we be gone for a long time?

I couldn't go home for a while.

Don't do everything yourself then.

Oh

So many servants in the house

You can't bear the burden of your child alone.

There are still half a month until the provincial examination.

I need to stay up all night studying.

You're busy with your own things

There are so many people in the child's family.

Hahaha

But nobody can stop me today.

What do you want to do?

Shower and hair washing

I want to scrub from head to toe

Daughter, you've been washing for an hour!

Don't wash for so long the first time.

Mother, the first basin of water I used to wash myself was black.

I used to not shower all winter.

Lice jumping around on my head

I didn't see you complaining.

Mother, please stop talking.

I got goosebumps.

ah

ah

Ah, I'm finally alive!

My daughter has finally made it through!

How come you haven't gained any weight?

Lei Zi, I'll make you stay with me during my postpartum period.

It means you need to take care of her.

It's not about you taking her postpartum meals.

No robbery

I really can't eat six meals a day.

He helped eat a little bit.

Well

This is called a little bit.

Eat whatever you want from now on

You can also pick gourds from the river now.

Don't you love spicy food the most?

Dad, don't make me hungry

How come you're out of confinement?

I still need to breastfeed

Spicy food is still not okay to eat.

The child can't handle it

Then finding a wet nurse would solve the problem.

I don't want to raise and feed the baby I gave birth to myself.

Can personally lead

I absolutely do not want to hand my child over entirely to someone else.

This applies to children who grow up with their biological mother.

The deepest feelings are naturally

When will the magistrate invite you to inspect the land?

I will personally invite you in a few days.

Let him come and see the harvest in the fields.

Mrs. Shou is coming to our house

What's wrong?

Can I hide in the backyard?

I felt weak in the knees when I saw the official.

Let me hide in front and cover you.

The prefect wouldn't barge into the backyard.

Adults and students used some new methods for farming this year.

I would like to invite you to visit in person.

Are the crops growing well?

If nothing goes wrong along the way

I estimate that yields per mu can increase by at least 10%.

Yicheng, are you sure?

No one can guarantee that the grain money will not be collected.

We'll only know the truth once we get through it.

Let's go to your village now.

Hmph, what was that just now?

fish

You raise fish in the rice paddies

We released some fish fry at the beginning of the year.

I wanted to give it a try

I didn't expect it to actually survive.

And quite tall

He's really alive

The crops didn't spoil.

Not only did it not break

It's growing very well.

Could it be that fish farming increases grain production?

It's not fish, just another source of income.

The common people will at least have more meat to eat in the end.

What really works is the seed method.

First, raise seedlings in a centralized manner.

Pull them out when they grow taller.

Plant the seedlings one by one in the field at appropriate intervals.

Not letting Miao Quan crowd together

Roots can grow

It gets enough water and fertilizer

Therefore, this method will succeed.

Um

Big Tree, you tell me.

How confident is there in this method?

Before the grain was confiscated

I dare not make any definitive statements.

Now only seven points

Seven points is already high enough.

When the autumn harvest comes

I must see it with my own eyes.

How much more grain can you harvest?

The students understood

It's rare for adults to come all this way.

Stay for a meal

There are still important matters at the manor.

The headman caught two baskets of rice paddy fish and gave them to the adults to take home.

There are quite a few jobs to be done in the fields.

The prefect left

Don't eat at our house

The autumn harvest will come again.

If you don't want to eat, then don't eat.

We eat it ourselves.

Your imperial examination for the title of Juren is coming soon.

I've had someone prepare food for the exam these past two days.

Um

Ask the Master

Should we prepare his share together?

I asked

He had previously said that the things we prepared were good.

Then make one more.

Young Miss and Young Master Qian are back

grandfather

My parents have been reburied.

The master chanted scriptures for 36 days

After the new tomb was repaired

A six-day memorial service was held before the coffin was opened.

You saw the coffin opened with your own eyes.

I personally collected my parents' remains.

Little by little, it was put into the new coffin.

Hahaha

grandfather

They have a new home now.

It no longer leaks air or water.

Brother Laifu

How did you lose so much weight?

Once you're back, don't run away anymore.

Let someone else handle the sales.

I'm not leaving this time.

Why would someone this thin still be running a sales business?

Tonight's fish soup and stewed meat will make up for all your pent-up needs.

Home-cooked meals are the best.

I can't get used to eating at restaurants outside anymore.

I love hearing that.

Sister Xiaoyu has already given birth.

She gave birth to a chubby grandson

I, Zhao Laosan, have an heir! Hahaha!

I'm late.

Laifu, have you gone to see my mother?

The old lady gained a lot of weight after visiting.

Fat

My face looks bigger.

When I arrived, she was eating sunflower seeds.

The villagers all say she is the oldest villager since the village was founded.

The fattest and luckiest old lady

Every family holding a wedding invites her to say auspicious words.

Being able to eat is a blessing.

He also said you are the most filial.

I miss him the most

Where is Brother Lei?

Busy with exams

I'll be taking the imperial examination to become a scholar soon.

Lei Zi, the scholar who passed the imperial examination, is really amazing.

So you should hurry up too!

You can't marry Pear Blossom

Not even a scholar

I'm going back to see Grandpa Song.

He also asked Uncle Zhao when he would continue attending the academy.

Cough cough cough No test no test

I'd rather die than take the exam.

The old man said you're still young.

Another ten or eight years is just right

Ten or eight years

My grandson was old enough to find a wife back then.

Father, my son is not allowed to get engaged so early.

Aren't you tired from reading so late every night?

fine

Studying hard during the day

I have to get up several times a night to take care of the children.

But you couldn't see much fatigue on his face.

The grains and vegetables our family has eaten over the years

Many of them passed through my space

Isn't this energy level a bit too high?

The field is completely dry.

Lotus seeds can be harvested now.

Good lotus

My goodness

Looking over there

It looked like the ground was covered in gold.

If this method can truly and steadily increase production...

This is worth much more than gold.

Uncle's food this season

This official is prepared to take them all away for testing.

I will settle your account at the market price.

I will never let you suffer a loss.

The adult's words were too harsh on the student.

I'll keep this grain for myself.

When it reached the adults

That's for serious business.

You don't want the money.

don't want

Adults just take it

If it really works

In the future, it will enable the people to produce more grain.

It's better than giving me those few hundred taels.

If this method succeeds

This official submits a memorial to the court.

You will definitely deserve credit for this.

The student thanks you, sir.

The big tree hasn't rested yet.

There's no governor watching over us.

My dad probably wishes he could be here today.

Finish all the work for the year.

The kitchen needs to deliver snacks again.

They also have to feed dozens of people.

I'll go first and won't come to keep you company.

Mother, you go about your business.

Don't exhaust yourself.

I'll go help too.

What am I, an old man, afraid of, the governor?

I just watch you guys busy

I also feel uneasy.

Just don't let the sight of an official make your legs go weak.

Nonsense, when have my legs ever gone weak?

These are all packaged separately.

Nobody is allowed to mingle.

This official must personally take it back for verification.

Sir, do you think this method will work?

This year can only be considered the first step.

I will personally plant it again next year.

If the harvest is the same in the second year

I'll also go and send this method to the capital.

Lei Zi, let me tell you

Don't be afraid when you go in.

Write as much as you can, even to the point of exhaustion.

Leave the ones you don't know blank for now.

Don't be reckless

You have to tell us when you come out.

What exactly was the imperial examination for the title of Juren?

I've never seen anything like it in all my life.

Don't be nervous, the more nervous you are, the less likely you are to succeed.

Also, if it gets cold, put on a cloak.

Don't try to tough it out.

Mother, Father, Grandpa Qian

Look at me again

I'm getting really nervous.

Go inside and drink hot water and eat hot food.

Don't get stuck on questions you don't know how to answer.

You went there to broaden your horizons anyway.

I see

Come, I'll personally escort you to the Imperial Examination Hall.

My dear mother

All the scholars in the entire prefecture have come here.

I suddenly find studying rather frightening.

Wow wow wow

They were already this frozen before they even entered the venue.

How can one endure three days inside?

Taking the imperial examination to become a scholar is like going to the execution ground.

Candidates lined up

No noise

Those who violate this rule will be expelled.

Go in

Wait for me to come back

Take off your coat

Shoe and sock inspection

Exam basket open

yes

Stay here for 3 days

I just want to go home.

Since we're already here

Lei Zi, my luck is absolutely terrible! (This is a really bad account.)

Hahaha

Master, how about I give you my share of deodorizing stuff too?

A mere bad number can't stump me.

Take care of yourself.

See you at the gate after the exam

bow down

What a strong wind!

This isn't an exam!

This is life-threatening!

You've prepared quite thoroughly.

Another patient with a fever was quickly carried out.

How are you feeling?

Still alive

My sweetie

How did you end up like this after just three days?

Rain Girl

Please prepare the same for me for the next two games as well.

Not one less

This time, I really owe you a lot.

Otherwise, he would probably have to be carried out.

Don't worry, I'll prepare two sets for the next game too.

daughter in law

I'm afraid I really have no chance this time.

The first time to take the imperial examination

Do you still want to achieve instant success?

It's too difficult. I was thinking, "What if?"

It's normal to feel disappointed when there's hope.

But we came here to broaden our horizons.

What's there to be afraid of if we come back in three years?

What if it still doesn't work in 3 years?

Then let's think of another way.

A person can be blocked by an exam.

Aha ah ha

The first game was difficult

Then practice each one you don't know until you do.

Come

Your dad ran away again.

I was exhausted yesterday.

I went to school again before dawn today.

I went to the Master's house again.

I should have been half as ruthless as him when I was young.

He probably became an official long ago.

Don't praise me, just praise me.

I feel like the old man's next sentence...

They want me to go back to school?

Wow wow wow

If you really want to

I can laugh myself awake from my dreams.

Hmph

I'd rather die than go back to the Sea of ​​Bitterness.

You spent half an hour on this question yesterday, come back again.

Again

The argument here is flawed.

Rewrite

Why haven't we arrived yet?

I hope my sauces won't spoil halfway through.

The village is so far from the prefectural city

Wait two more days

That's not sauce.

That's all silver.

One can is spoiled

My heart must be rotten.

My ancestor has finally arrived!

Please forgive me, sir.

The car was heavy and caught in a downpour on the road.

Slippery mud road

The younger ones really dared not rush.

It's good that the person is alright.

So what if the delivery is a little slow?

The car really overturned and ran over someone.

I have nowhere to cry.

Unload everything from the warehouse first.

Have a hot meal and get some rest tonight.

Two taels each

My people cannot suffer in vain.

100 jin of pickled cabbage

200 jin of kimchi

Is that enough?

Greenhouses can produce fresh vegetables

Grandpa Qian likes to pickle more radishes.

Dad loves to eat mustard greens

My daughter still loves me the most.

Don't stock up before winter

I panicked.

When we were poor

I'm always afraid of running out of food in winter.

When we were tidying up the yard

The bricks in the warehouse were found to be incorrect.

Reach out and touch

It was actually able to be taken off directly.

Take it down directly

We dismantled them one by one, about ten pieces at a time.

The wall is so thick you could practically hollow it out.

Are any things missing from the house?

We didn't discover it as early as we did.

What the neighbors said

They don't acknowledge it.

They even turned around and bit us.

They said it was us who dug the wall.

I wanted to steal their things.

They even threatened to report it to the authorities.

Put us in jail

I'll go dig up their house too.

Their family was so poor that even a rat would have to cry if it went in.

This is called the thief crying "stop thief!"

This cannot be tolerated.

Take it slow, do one piece at a time.

Nobody could tell.

Although the Zhao family doesn't live there permanently

But you can keep the servants.

Don't let anyone find out.

While waiting for winter

They won't come back.

Go through from this side

Just grab some things

That's enough to have a prosperous New Year.

It was clearly you who dug it.

You want to steal my things?

I want to report this to the authorities.

We'll arrest you and execute you.

Luckily, I reacted quickly.

We didn't lose anything.

What can be done if things really escalate?

It's fine as long as the item wasn't lost.

Today's Wall

Will you dare to rob us tomorrow?

Cannot be counted

Daughter, that's what I think too.

Tomorrow, I return to the castle

Hmph

I'd like to see that too.

Nothing was lost

I don't believe they'd actually cause trouble.

Hmph

Who bullied whom?

The servant of the Zhao family went out today.

He must have told his master.

Has anyone from the Zhao family returned?

Not a single day left.

There wasn't a single person in sight.

It seems they're afraid things will escalate.

The wall wasn't dug through.

Nothing was lost

Unable to produce evidence

I knew it!

Out-of-towners pretending to be wealthy

When it comes to actually seeing the officials, don't your legs go weak?

The house is waiting for winter.

We continue

You're obsessed with money.

Let them relax first.

Daughter, I'm going to show you something today.

Call him the true scoundrel ancestor

Dad, we're going to handle something.

It's not about who's more shameless.

You don't understand.

Dealing with scoundrels

You're being reasonable.

He's treating you like an easy target.

Then don't argue with him.

What to do if it's not noisy?

Wasn't he shouting that he wanted to report it to the authorities?

Yeah, how come I didn't think of that?

This method is ingenious.

This is called loosening your own muscles.

The old and young have never touched it.

The neighbor was pointing his finger at the little one and cursing him yesterday.

They said we wanted to steal from their house.

I stole from their house

What could I have stolen in the past?

Steal two broken brooms and keep them as offerings

Pretty and heartless

Walk

Ah you

What are you doing here?

You are not welcome in my home.

Auntie, don't be afraid.

We just wanted to look at the wall.

What are you looking at? I haven't settled accounts with you yet!

My walls are perfectly fine.

The bricks loosened as soon as you brought them over.

It might be your family.

The servant tried to dig through the wall and steal my things.

Say it again.

My servants went to steal from your house.

Dad, don't worry

I tell you

This isn't over.

If you really push me too far, I'll report you to the authorities.

Arrest all of your lackeys!

OK

What

Didn't you want to report this to the authorities?

Let's go now

Come on, didn't you say you were going to report it to the authorities? I'll go with you.

Just a few bricks

Are you sick?

You dare to bother the officials with such trivial matters?

Didn't you shout quite loudly just now?

They even want to arrest and execute my servants!

I was afraid your servants wouldn't behave.

Remind you

That should be investigated more thoroughly.

If my servants really steal...

It's certain that they'll catch them.

If someone digs up my wall

They also need to be arrested.

Don't bother reporting it; maybe the brick was already loose.

My man will build it for you as soon as he gets back.

Ensure the bricks are laid solidly

All of these have been repaired.

I'll make it up when my man comes home today.

Loosen another piece later

We'll see you at the government office.

No, absolutely not.

My daughter, I didn't get a single word in today.

How come you're even better at scaring people than your dad?

He's not afraid of me.

What's there to be afraid of?

Fear of officials

Yuanbao is finally back!

Why don't they want the spoon?

I cried for a long time

Mother is back

Don't cry, don't cry

My sweet baby is starving, isn't he?

Our roommates

I actually managed to work on such a little thing.

It's not that you're useless.

He just loves this taste.

That family next door is just bullying us outsiders.

If you dare touch the wall again...

I reported it to the authorities directly.

Without saying a word

They're the ones who made my grandson cry like this.

Learn from your mistakes and you'll know the pain.

Do it a second time

Don't give anyone face.

How could the weather change so suddenly?

Xiao Lei's last match

My mother is neither early nor late in the morning

Definitely on the last day

Lei Zi and his men didn't even have a door to Haoshan.

When the wind blows

The rain must not all be poured in.

What to do if the exam paper gets wet?

I wrote for three days and it all turned into a paste.

I brought him a large umbrella and curtain.

There's also a paperweight.

As long as it is blocked in time

Not so bad as to be caught off guard

Taking the imperial examination is a real ordeal

I'm so worried I want to cry for them.

My paper is about to fly away!

Hey hey hey

My manuscript

Do not leave your seat and return to your original seat.

Last day

We absolutely cannot let this rain ruin everything.

I don't believe it.

A rain shower can still scorch me to death

Why is it raining harder and harder?

I get angry even when I see rain now.

They must all be rushing to finish their final papers right now.

Ignoring the cold and the rain

As long as they come out safe and sound, that's all that matters.

I don't care whether I pass the exam or not.

I'll pick you up in the afternoon

I'll go too

Where are you taking your child?

A gust of wind and a drizzle

If you two get sick from the cold...

I went alone

Do not get wet

Faster and faster

It's all burnt.

I wasted three days writing.

Ready to collect the papers

Stop writing. Stop writing.

I've finished going too.

I also spent three days there and it was all for nothing.

The exams are finally over.

Lei Zi's side

Come here quickly

They took everything but nothing.

I got them all.

The Master hasn't come out yet.

The rain is so heavy.

You still went in

He drew a bad number.

And don't know how to tidy up things

I need to go check.

Master

Lei Lei Lei Zi

What happened to you?

Don't mention it.

There are still half of the things inside that haven't been taken.

Give me your seat number

You get on the bus first.

How could it get so wet?

I don't even think Xiao Lei is as miserable as you.

I don't know either.

I also went to my ancestors' graves.

Is this going home or spending the night here?

Take off your pants and shoes and wrap this around yourself

father

Why are you guys dawdling?

Freeze for another night

You can go straight to bed tomorrow.

I am worried about the Master.

He was soaked to the bone.

Even after taking off the entire cloak, the inside was still dry.

You should wrap yourself up quickly.

I just need to go home and have a bowl of ginger soup when I'm free.

You're freezing and you're still okay?

It's just a bit cold.

Achoo!

Drink two bowls

ah

Not a single drop can be left.

I'm really okay.

It's just a bit cold.

Be more alert tonight.

I'm afraid he'll get a fever.

Dad, you're just worrying for nothing.

Why is the kang (heated brick bed) so hot tonight, my husband?

Head of household

Wake up and take charge

Open your eyes and look at me.

Parents who were in charge of the household got delirious from the fever.

He can't be woken up.

Go quickly and get a doctor.

We guard

Where's the doctor? My man has a high fever and has fainted.

All exhibits are gone.

Those who have fevers tonight are all candidates who came from the examination hall.

Not a single one

Not a single one

Extinguish the kang (heated brick bed) quickly.

Little Rain Girl once said

High fever should not be covered up.

I'll go right now.

Handle warm water and take a cloth

I wiped his body to cool him down.

Unable to get a doctor

If we can't get help, we'll rescue them ourselves.

Please, my dear husband, don't scare me!

Crabapple

Oh

The fever has subsided.

real

Finally withdrew

He was almost scared to death.

May our ancestors bless us.

water

father

You didn't sleep all night

You were almost too hot to wake up.

Why should I sleep?

I'm such a burden to my whole family.

If you say that again, I'll get angry.

Being awake is the most important thing.

You are not allowed to go anywhere today.

It has nothing to do with you if the academy collapses.

This year was originally just a trial run.

You've done your best.

so

I have no chance this time either.

Becoming a Juren (a successful candidate in the imperial examinations) is not that easy.

Go back and work on it for another three years

Come back in 3 years

Write down all the mistakes today.

Master, why are you so weak?

I'm still alive and okay.

Master, I see you're having trouble even taking two steps now.

I really can't keep going like this anymore.

I used to think that scholars

As long as you have a brain, that's enough.

This time, a rainstorm almost wiped it all out.

When you get better

I'll come practice with you too.

My dad runs every day.

You practice with me for half a year

It will definitely be better than it is now.

Cheng, wait until I'm ready.

Every day I move

If it's still so weak

Next exam

I'm afraid I won't even be able to climb out of the gate of the examination hall.

You should be able to get off the kang (heated brick bed) before you start blowing.

Oh no, I burned my husband again.

Isn't everything fine during the day?

Why is your fire burning again? Why is it burning again?

What kind of illness is this?

Go and ask the doctor again

I'll go too, I refuse to believe I won't find a single one tonight.

Doctor, please take a look quickly.

He had a fever all night last night.

It was withdrawn during the day.

It burned again tonight.

Not just catching a cold from rain

What is that?

Weak constitution and excessive liver

In addition to the hard study in the past few days

The exams on the 9th were mentally and physically exhausting.

My body was already exhausted.

I told him a long time ago not to study so hard.

He just wouldn't listen.

First, reduce the heat of the kang (heated brick bed) so it doesn't get too hot.

Take the medicine as prescribed.

The most important thing is to rest.

My mother has only been gone for a few days.

You look ten years older.

Did you come to see me or to annoy me?

I'm serious.

Fame and fortune are worth less than life.

Look at Xiao Lei.

Studying is studying

He's as strong as an ox.

I see

When you get better

Get up in the morning and walk, run, and work hard.

Work hard

Our farm needs work, can you come and help?

I'll give you a free workout.

Master, you really shouldn't risk your life studying anymore.

Without me

I am not included.

Three years

I'll wait three years, haha.

I will definitely pass the exam in three years.

Lei Zi

Starting today

Let's work hard for three years.

We must be in the same league three years from now.

Master, you've finally crawled out of bed!

Want to gamble with your life again

I'm 40.

How many more three-year periods are there?

I give myself 6

Six years

The best can be won in three years

If it doesn't work, I'll take the test again.

Fame and fortune are important

Life is more important

I don't want to be lying in a coffin before I even make the list.

Still feeling unwell

It would be a lie to say I'm not upset.

I've actually thought about it secretly too.

What if I actually win?

If you didn't win, you didn't win.

You've only been in school for a few years, what's the rush?

I'm afraid of disappointing you.

What I fear most is that you will learn from Confucius.

I've worn myself out to the point of near death.

If it doesn't work in three years, try again in six.

Six years is not enough

Let's take another route.

There are other paths in life besides the imperial examination.

I'll listen to you.

It's snowing.

Shouldn't we go back to the village?

Go back and never leave

Waiting for heavy snow to block the roads

We'll have to spend the New Year on the road.

I miss my parents too.

Requesting leave from the academy

Go tomorrow

Pack your things

Back to Old Sow Village

Hahaha

Meals and accommodation included

Yes, it's best if you know how to farm.

I know how to farm

I can gather herbs

I can cook too.

Okay, then you come.

Otherwise we won't hire anyone.

I can do the work of nine people by myself.

The deal is done, dear readers.

This is the character we're dressing up as in our new drama.

A peasant woman raises eight younger brothers to farm.

Lin Xi, the female protagonist who brings prosperity to the whole village

Eight younger brothers are not easy to raise

Everyone needs to come and support me!

Remember to like, save, and bookmark!

Previously, Zhao Xiaoyu and her father's business was becoming increasingly stable.

The family also welcomed the safe birth of Yuanbao.

at the same time

The farm's rice-fish farming yielded a bumper harvest.

This attracted the attention of the prefect himself.

Xiao Lei studied hard to retake the exam

However, he failed the provincial examination on his first attempt.

With heavy snow approaching

The family packed their bags

Preparing to return to the old sow village

Back to Old Sow Village

I'll say Fucheng is good again later.

Whoever slaps me across the face

This journey could shake your bones to pieces.

You're young, so be patient.

I'm young and I already have grandchildren.

When my mother arrived

Finally back

Father only arrived in the county town

We haven't reached the village yet.

We still have to keep going.

Third Master is back!

I'm back

Come on, kids, take some candy!

Who just said the bones broke?

Seeing fellow villagers

The bone grew back.

The old lady and the third master returned to the village.

What did you say? The third brother is back.

They just entered the village with truckloads of stuff!

Good, I knew the third brother would come back.

I've had enough of this life.

The eldest and second eldest haven't come over for days.

It's just you guys keeping me company every day.

I'm about to burst!

What do you want, old lady?

I went with the third brother.

What

He has many family members.

There are also many servants

Still living in the prefectural city

I followed him

How comfortable it is to be lively and bustling every day!

I'm not seeing anyone now.

Even if the sky falls, we'll deal with it tomorrow.

The Third Master has something to say

I think I should tell you in advance.

What's up?

After the old lady learned that you had returned

Overjoyed

Then what

He said he wants to live with you.

I'd also like to go to the prefectural city with you.

She wants to come with me.

Please, dear readers, help me by adding this to your favorites!

Please follow me!

If this continues, there won't be any rice left to cook.

He went to the prefectural city.

Am I crazy, or is he crazy?

That's what the old lady said.

You handle this matter yourself.

Wife, what are you afraid of?

She said her

I wouldn't let her ride on my shoulders, would I?

Watch me

Even when he was agile, he couldn't handle me.

Can you fly while lying in bed now?

Are you going to visit your mother or go to war tomorrow?

I must be in high spirits tomorrow.

Have a good meeting with my mother

Don't say anything too harsh.

There are many people and many eyes in the village

Don't let people say you're unfilial.

I know the items will still be delivered.

Silver shines on flowers

I won't stop him from living a good life.

Let my wife and daughter serve him.

No way!

It's just a few steps from my father's village.

And they didn't even ride in a horse-drawn carriage.

What does it mean to return home in glory?

I've been away for over a year

It's ridiculous that he came back covered in dust and mud.

You just want to show off.

Oh, my dear tree, I've missed you so much!

He started howling before he even went inside.

I suddenly don't want to go in.

Mother, I'm here.

My third son, my third son!

Mother, don't wail.

You almost scared the child to tears.

Xiaoyu has already given birth.

Bring him over here so I can see my great-grandson.

daughter

You've gotten even bigger!

Mother, I haven't seen you for a year

How did you get so fat?

So what if I'm a little chubby?

People say I'm lucky.

This is not a bit chubby

You were already quite fat when I last saw you.

It seems like I've gotten half again as big now.

Has the nanny doctor come to see me?

I can't do anything while I'm lying here.

What else can you do if you don't eat?

Move your mouth

Only then can we get by.

But your complexion is off.

Eating too much sugar and oil

It's really bad for your health.

I've lived to this old age

I still don't know how to make a living.

Okay, okay, whatever makes you happy, I won't try to stop you.

Xiaoyu brought the child over so I could take a closer look.

Did you see that the eyes and nose are following along?

I haven't seen it clearly yet.

Old Third Aunt is uncomfortable living here.

Not having enough to eat or not having enough to wear

Bored, I open my eyes to see only a few Huang family members.

Even with my eyes closed, it's still them.

There's no one to talk to all year round.

Where are my eldest and second brothers?

A whole bunch of grandsons and great-grandsons

Your house isn't lively enough.

They are not sincere.

I want to move to a different place.

I was thinking

Mother, I suddenly remembered

There's still a lot to do at home.

I haven't finished speaking yet.

I haven't finished speaking yet.

The third brother will definitely come again in a couple of days.

I have something important to tell you

Okay, okay

father

The milk really doesn't seem right.

I know

But she wouldn't listen to the doctor.

Who can control it?

I think Mother won't side with us this time.

Saying it out loud won't make you give up.

I don't care whether she gives up or not.

Huang

Do you think the third brother will take me to the prefectural city?

The third child is back.

Come back

What does this have to do with us?

We really need his help.

What are you asking for again?

Dazhu's wife has been married for two years.

There was no sign of pregnancy in her stomach.

The third brother knows many people.

Would it be alright if he helped me find a good doctor to take a look?

The second son's wife gave birth two months ago.

He was nowhere to be found.

If this continues...

Our boss is really going to die without an heir!

I'll go beg the third brother.

What if the doctor really says that Mrs. Pan can't have children?

What's the point of keeping it then?

What do you want to do?

Divorce her

We still need to support our mothers

Save money for Sanzhuzi's wife

Showing Dazhuzi a wife

Where would we get the money?

Don't even mention it, it's giving me a headache.

It's the third son's business if he's rich.

I don't care if he wants to give his mother meat and snacks.

We can't be made to pay the same amount.

I'm looking for my older brother.

Let him speak with you

I went alone

The third brother could curse me back to my mother's womb.

Even if the academy in the prefectural city is expensive, it's still better than staying in the county town.

You can't be the only one teaching our eldest son anymore.

Was my teaching that bad?

If you really teach well

Why should I bother with all this effort?

Isn't Lao San going back to the prefectural city after three years?

Let his eldest son live with him

Nianfucheng Academy

With Xiao Lei's guidance,

That's what I think too.

Big Brother

What's he doing here?

If you need anything, speak up immediately.

Big brother, you've seen how fat Mom has become, haven't you?

We can no longer raise them according to the standards of the third child.

What do you mean?

His arms are thicker than our thighs.

He eats meat, eggs, and snacks every day.

How can we keep up?

You want me to stand up for you?

I'm in the wrong if we're together.

You also know about what happened to Sanbaozi back then.

Trying to use me as a shield

You wish!

Not the one who takes the bullet

We really can't hold on any longer.

When Cheng talked to Lao San

I'll be with you.

Your return

The village was bustling with activity.

Then if I'm not around, who will keep you company while you brag and drink?

We'll go find the third brother tomorrow.

go

Haha, it's so comfortable to go back to the village!

I have no worries this time.

Light rain

Your grandma is really sick.

It's quite serious, but it's not a disease.

It was my body that gradually ruined itself.

If you don't stop

I don't know how much longer I can hold on.

What if the person dies within these three years?

What to do about Lei Zi's imperial examination?

He is a live-in son-in-law

How exactly is this mourning period calculated?

I really hadn't thought of that.

Forget it, let's not think that far ahead.

The matter of life and death

No one can predict it for sure.

Don't go into the deep mountains

I'll definitely be back before dark.

Slow down, the bottom of the snow is freezing.

I know you're even more talkative than my mother.

It's you who gets hurt when you fall.

Of course I'm long-winded

Mother

Grandma, I'm back.

I got married.

I also have a son.

Xiaoyu is good to me

My parents-in-law treated me like their own son.

This year, the scholar failed the imperial examination.

Don't worry

I am still young

Come again next time

Next time I come, I'll bring your great-grandchildren too.

daughter in law

The child is so young

You can't go anywhere.

I still study all day

Everything at home falls on you and Dad.

Feeling guilty

Please be nicer to me and my son from now on.

I don't want to rely on you alone

What's wrong?

Light rain

I want to form a caravan.

Border area fur and dried meat are cheap

We can sell our goods there too.

The same goes for the south.

You can travel by boat

You really want to do business

I don't want to live off my wife forever.

Studying is studying

But I am a man

You can't expect your wife and children to be supported entirely by you and your father.

Do it if you want to.

There's another thing.

explain

I have no money.

So you're trying to get something for nothing?

I will continue to

I'll lend you the money after the New Year.

Do it yourself

I'll bear all the profits and losses myself.

become

Hahaha

Dad, what are you doing?

You're finally back!

This ancestor cries if he doesn't see me doing a handstand.

My head is about to explode.

Hahaha

Your son has completely outmaneuvered his maternal grandfather today.

Little brat

They're just bullying your grandpa.

I tell you

When you can run

I chase you away every day.

Hahaha

Please, dear readers, help me by adding this to your favorites!

Please follow me!

If this continues, there won't be any rice left to cook.

Our film crew is about to disband.

I said it's so comfortable to go back to the village.

This is what it means to live a fulfilling life.

Hahaha, whoever lies down first today is a coward, hahaha!

Xiaoyu tried it

Your uncle went to the county town this morning.

They bought all the sheep.

Hahaha

Uncle Shunzi is really rich now.

Girl, what kind of magic pill did you eat?

You look even younger than you did two years ago.

That's an exaggeration!

Does the old man have less gray hair?

My doctor already said...

All my old ailments are gone.

See? My house has great feng shui, hahaha!

Mother, since we're spending the winter in the county this year...

Why not do some good deeds?

Serving porridge

It's so cold

Queuing for porridge is freezing!

Directly deliver food and clothing

Add some radishes and cabbage.

Cheng Duosongdian

Let poor families also have a good New Year

Uncle Lai

I toast you three bowls

Three bowls are nothing, just fill them up!

Uncle

Why aren't you falling down yet?

Tonight I'm a vat of wine turned to spirit.

I feel like I can still drink.

Hahaha

Just lie down for now.

I'm drunk.

I can't do it anymore.

Haha, let me tell you...

I could drink at three more tables and still not get drunk.

I'm not going to submit to anyone today.

I wasn't drunk.

Hahaha

daughter in law

Returning to the prefectural city after the New Year

I then started organizing caravans.

become

This time I'm going to earn my own money.

Why

Struggle

I lost a lot of money.

Try saying it again.

I didn't say anything, haha.

Girl, your medicine is amazing!

I forgot the hangover pills I gave you before you left.

I'm still perfectly clear-headed even after drinking so much.

From now on, won't we be able to drink a thousand cups without getting drunk?

Then drink yourself to death.

Haha, old man

Keep blowing, hahaha

father

The same to you

I'm sleepy, time to sleep.

I drank so much last night

I got up earlier than you again today.

I was just being lenient with you.

snort

Father, don't you have something important to do today?

Wife, you're finally awake!

Last night, the snoring was so loud it shook the roof beams.

I don't snore

Chengchengcheng, I typed it.

I typed out the voices of two people.

Don't talk to me today.

What did I do again?

Father, you'd better hurry up and take care of your important business.

If I wait any longer, I might really get beaten up.

I need to go and meet my mother.

What did Mom want to see me about?

I want to discuss this with you.

Huang, all of you, get out.

Mother wants to go live in the prefectural city with you.

I've had enough of the village.

The prefectural city is so prosperous

I just want to go and see.

Living with your family

It's lively with lots of people.

Mother, have you been living too comfortably these past two years?

He forgot who he was.

Zhao Dashu, I am your mother

I am also your biological son.

How did you treat me when I was poor?

Did you ever care when my wife was bullied?

My daughter almost died.

Have you ever felt sorry for me?

Now my life is better.

You actually want your family to be reunited?

Why bring up things from the past?

You can forget me, but I can't.

I should be given silver and grain.

You should retire.

I won't let you starve.

But living together is impossible.

I am your mother.

Because you are my mother

I've only raised you until today.

You unfilial son

I'm going to go out and tell the whole village

Go ahead, I'll give you money and grain every year.

I give you gifts during holidays

They even hired people to serve them.

Go ask the whole village.

Am I, Zhao Dashu, filial or not?

you

daughter

If you behave yourself, you can still get by.

Zhao Dashu

daughter

Seriously? I'm so angry!

Mom, don't scare me.

As long as my mother is alive, that's enough.

Wake up, Mom, don't play dead and scare me!

roll

Being able to swear means nothing's wrong.

Unfilial son, bastard, beast

The old lady doctor said...

You can't make such a big fuss.

He threatened me

I am his biological mother

But the Third Master has indeed always

I'll send you silver and grain.

That's because he cares about his reputation.

For outsiders to see

Even if it's just for show

What you eat and wear now

servants

Which one didn't benefit from the Third Master's influence?

I just want to go to the prefectural city to see it.

I've never seen that place in my entire life.

It takes more than a month to travel from the village to the prefectural city.

You're having trouble even leaving the hospital now, how are you going to get out?

My life

I really can't go.

I had three sons.

Each one is more heartless than the last.

All are karmic debts

Old lady, please stop being angry.

old lady

Go quickly and call the Third Uncle.

Third Master and Old Madam

The old lady fainted again.

Yo

Dad, didn't you just wake up by pinching the breast?

Dad, what did you say to Grandma?

I just told you the truth.

Good heavens, am I being raised by a foster mother or undergoing a tribulation?

No serious illness

It's just anger.

But the old lady is so old.

Still so angry

Do you think you have too long a life?

The doctor prescribed him some strong cooling medicine.

The better the effect, the better.

Eat less sunflower seeds and peanuts.

Xiaoyu really gave birth.

A chubby little boy over three months old

Tell me, what do you want from me?

Third son

Mother really can't raise her like that anymore.

We can't afford to raise them.

I really can't afford to raise them anymore.

What did the clan chief say back then?

You yourselves nodded in agreement.

Who knew he could eat like this back then?

Meat protein pasta

My family still has children in school.

If I keep enduring this...

I fear I'll die before my mother.

Please, dear readers, help me by adding this to your favorites!

Please follow me!

If this continues, there won't be any rice left to cook.

Our film crew is about to disband.

I'll say it again: talk to your mother.

We contacted you because we were too afraid to tell her.

Then I dare

Her mouth is on her body

Her stomach also grew on her body

I can still block it.

Third brother, I really can't take it anymore.

If you can really persuade your mother to ask for less grain

We can consider helping you get a share.

Why should I have to pay for him too?

You're right.

You're right

You're right

Third brother, I have another favor to ask you.

What's wrong now?

I need your help to find a good doctor.

You are sick

It wasn't me.

It is the Pan family.

Big Pearl's Daughter-in-Law

What happened to her?

We've been married for two years

Unable to conceive

We've seen all the doctors in the third county town.

Everyone says Pan has no problems.

You know a lot of people

Can you find someone truly capable?

Everyone says that Pan is alright.

Have you seen the big pillar?

My son is as strong as an ox.

What could be wrong with him?

Being strong or not has nothing to do with being able to have children.

You just think my son is no good.

I'll just say one thing.

Watching together as a couple

You promised me you'd find a doctor.

I don't care if you don't agree.

Let's watch together

Who will pay for Mother's share from now on?

I won't divide it for you.

Hey, third brother

I'll still find a doctor for you.

No other way

What's wrong, second brother? Did you upset me again?

His little girl

Just like Xiaoyu when she was little

Ragged coat and worn-out shoes

My hands are covered in chilblains.

That's my own daughter.

Second sister-in-law didn't care.

Neither of them had a heart.

Did the pear blossoms leave behind a few thick clothes?

Find it and wrap it up for me.

I will deliver it myself tomorrow.

He secretly ate it himself

Thank you, Uncle San.

I'll say it again.

Don't take his clothes.

Mother, you should eat too.

Eat by yourself

Eating in Tibetan houses

Don't let anyone else take it.

Parents also eat

Why are you so drunk again?

Even hangover pills can't stop it.

Dad is in a bad mood today.

He then drank quite a lot more.

Honey, I saw that girl today and...

It reminds me of my daughter when she was little.

Back then, Xiaoyu also wore a tattered cotton-padded coat.

So cold in winter that I dared not get off the kang (heated brick bed).

I'm incompetent.

Dad, that was so many years ago.

I know it just hurts when I think about it.

My daughter has such a hard life.

Shut up

Aww

Be nicer to her in the future.

Why

ah

father

What to do?

I dare not get drunk again

Never touch alcohol in this lifetime.

I promise I won't drink it.

Hello, Uncle San

Yo

It's not cold today, is it?

It's not cold, it's warm.

Thank you, Uncle San.

Look

The third brother really likes this girl.

Don't get any ideas again.

I'm just thinking about it.

Wow, this room can finally breathe today!

My whole family came to eat here on the Winter Solstice.

That's quite lively!

What gifts did you bring me for the holiday?

Ahhh

No, no

You two really brought your mouths with you.

I'll go home and get two cabbages later.

daughter

daughter

Winter Solstice Gifts

You're trying to fool me with two cabbages.

Lei Zi, are you doing well studying in the prefectural city?

It's alright

Is Fucheng Academy any good?

Is it difficult to get in?

My academy only accepted scholars who passed the lowest level of the imperial examinations.

The ranking still needs to be higher.

What about the tuition fee?

How much silver

Ten taels a month

More or less

Ten taels

Ten taels a year

one month

10 taels a month

Wasn't that year...?

120 taels

My God

This is not studying.

This is like burning silver in a fire pit!

Celebrate the Winter Solstice

My three sons came empty-handed to eat my food.

What would I do with you guys?

That

Mom, what do you want?

I don't want anything anymore.

Give me 200 coins each

Sure

You are of course

Is two hundred coins a lot of money to you?

Mom asked me, not you.

Mother, I really can't come up with it.

Sanzhuzi stole from our house several times.

I work every day

Life is like enduring a lifetime of torment.

Second brother, how did you get so old?

My second brother is truly wasting his talent if he doesn't sing opera.

Alright, you can skip the 200 coins this year.

Thank you, Mother.

Why?

What on what grounds?

He won't give it to me or give it to me.

My two children are in school.

How is it easier for me than for him?

Boss

You are the eldest son

The eldest son shouldn't be taken advantage of.

Third son

I went with my older brother.

What

Big brother won't give it

I won't give it to you.

You just said to give

I regretted it again.

Leizi

What about cheaper academies?

I haven't inquired about it.

That should amount to at least 5 taels a month, right?

5 taels a month

That's 60 taels a year.

The expenses in the prefectural city were already high.

Studying costs more money

ah

My God!

I can't even get two hundred coins.

My milk started again.

There is still in the pot

If it's not enough, I'll serve you more.

Can it be added?

Eat quickly

I'm full.

I can have another bowl.

Mom, I really can't eat anymore.

If you can't eat it, give it to me.

They even think they're starving ghosts reincarnated?

daughter

It's a holiday.

Not eating is wasteful

They even took them away, eating and taking things with them.

Mom's treat today was definitely worth it.

Please, dear readers, help me by adding this to your favorites!

Please follow me!

If this continues, there won't be any rice left to cook.

Our film crew is about to disband.

Xiao Lei

Does my uncle want my cousin to study in the prefectural city?

It's probably because my academy is too expensive.

They definitely can't afford it.

There are always affordable academies in the prefectural city.

Even if it's cheap, it's still a lot of money.

Head of household

We're afraid we can't afford to send our eldest son to the prefectural city.

What's wrong?

Xiao Lei's monthly tuition fee was 10 taels.

120 taels a year

Not including food and lodging

Oh

You're still laughing

Oh

That was the best academy

My former classmates went to study in Fucheng.

A typical academy would only yield around 20 taels of silver per year.

20 taels a year

We gritted our teeth

Is it possible to afford to support one person?

Then let the eldest go.

After he finishes his exams after the New Year

I'll try to find a way to send him to the prefectural city.

How's your mother doing lately?

What else can we do?

Eat without limit

My face is so chubby it's almost wrinkle-free.

I have practiced medicine for decades

I've never seen anyone so stubborn.

If you keep overeating...

This is truly reckless and dangerous.

I've tried everything to persuade her, but she won't listen.

Reaching out

Well

I'm sick too.

You're in great shape!

That means I must eat well and sleep soundly.

Exercise every day

If your mother had half your talent

It shouldn't have come to this.

Doctor, please take a look at my daughter-in-law quickly.

We've been married for over two years

There was no sign of labor in her belly.

wrist

Change to another one

She has no major health problems.

No problem

It's just that I have some deficiency of qi and blood.

Overwork

It will get better with rest.

It will not affect fertility

doctor

I can give birth

Judging by pulse

Then why didn't you get pregnant in two years?

That's why I said both of them need to watch it.

Her man came over

What am I looking at?

We agreed to watch it together as a couple.

Why don't you count?

Sitting down and looking at your body won't cost you anything.

Have you finished watching it?

The pulse is deep, thready, and weak.

Kidney Qi Deficiency

Insufficient essence

What does that mean?

Simply put, he has difficulty getting women to conceive.

You're talking nonsense.

My son is as strong as an ox.

How could you not be able to have children?

He can consummate the marriage.

They've had their share of troubles over the years.

How can you not have children?

Can have sex and can't make

A woman getting pregnant is not the same thing.

I don't believe it.

Second sister-in-law, you were the ones who begged me to invite her.

Now, if what you say isn't pleasant to hear, you're considered a liar.

Maybe it was all in cahoots of you.

I was so full of myself that I spent money to hire a doctor.

Specifically to slander your son

I'll know after asking a few questions.

Do you often experience lower back and knee pain?

Are you afraid of the cold?

Do you often get up at night?

You have

Shut up

So I'm not sick.

It's you who can't have children.

I can give birth, I always can give birth.

Doctor, please take another look.

My son will definitely be alright.

I've rarely been sick since I was a child.

A pulse doesn't lie.

Able to engage in marital relations

This does not mean it can make a woman pregnant.

These past two years you've all said I'm sick.

He scolded me for not being able to lay eggs

Let me do the work alone

It makes me feel like I'll never be able to hold my head up high again.

It turned out I wasn't sick.

You also reach out your hand.

I

What's wrong with the doctor?

Don't scare me.

Long-term hard work

Not eating well

In addition to excessive worry

The body is severely depleted.

If we keep going like this...

It will shorten lifespan

Head of household

I knew it

I really can't do this kind of work anymore these past few years.

Can Doctor Dazhu still be cured?

Yes, it can be treated.

But I'm not very confident.

Approximately 20%

20%

Moreover, it requires long-term conditioning.

One dose of medicine costs 300 coins

At least 6 per month

As for whether it will take one year, ten years, or even longer to see results...

I dare not guarantee it.

A little over one tael of silver a month

us

Unable to afford treatment

I can give birth, I clearly can give birth.

fart

You're a quack doctor.

How much silver did your third uncle give you?

You conspired to harm me

Big Pillar

The wife left

We won't listen to his nonsense.

pain

Let's change doctors

Exchange 10 or 100

I'm definitely not sick.

So these two years

Whom did we wrongly accuse?

That doctor is a fraud.

My third uncle deliberately brought this to trick us.

Don't believe a single word you say.

Say something!

You should say something.

My mind is a complete mess right now.

Can't you just let me have some peace and quiet?

Do you want to leave?

I'll give you time.

It doesn't matter how long.

Wife, don't leave me

I can't live without you

I've completely forgotten what the doctor just said.

That's all bullshit.

I'm definitely not sick.

But you know in your heart

You have all the symptoms he mentioned.

You believe his farts?

Why can't I believe it?

No children in the past two years

How did you treat me?

I do all the housework.

Your mother scolded me for not being able to lay eggs, you hear that.

You take your anger out on me when you're unhappy.

I'm terrified of being divorced by you every day.

I have to watch your expression even when I'm breathing.

before

I didn't know before

Just because you don't know, you can insult me ​​at will.

I won't scold you anymore.

I won't hit you.

Mother said I'll speak up for you.

You still want to blame me?

I did not mean that

roll

I don't want to see you right now.

I don't want to see you right now.

become

I'll go out first.

Don't do anything rash.

Hahaha

doctor

There's really no other way.

If I were to tell the truth

The chances of a cure are extremely low.

Rather than throwing all the money in

Perhaps we should consider adoption later.

Head of household

My second brother really couldn't hold on this time.

What will happen to the pillar of the family in the future?

What else can we do?

Didn't the doctor say...?

adoption or fostering

What about the Pan family?

She knew she could give birth.

Will it run away?

We can't let her go.

But what if she wants a divorce?

We don't nod.

Neither divorce nor separation

She is Zhao's daughter-in-law.

That child

There are orphans in the city without parents.

Take one away to hide for a year or two

They came back and said it was their child.

As long as the Pan family still exists

This family will never fall apart.

Do you think Mrs. Pan will leave?

I think so

Running straight

She used to think she couldn't have children.

Unable to straighten up

Now that I know I can give birth

Who would still be willing?

Carry that black pot for the rest of your life

That was his own choice.

Regarding other people's affairs

Let's get out of this.

However, my second brother's family

It's going to be a complete upheaval.

Why are you staring at me like that?

I'll stay by your side.

I want my own child

Adopt a different one

Raise them to take care of us in our old age and break pots

Are they the same?

Why are they different?

What's the use of my parents having three sons?

Each one is more unpleasant than the last.

Honey, I'll really treat you well from now on.

Can we just live like this?

Sleep

daughter in law

Please, dear readers, help me by adding this to your favorites!

Please follow me!

If this continues, there won't be any rice left to cook.

Our film crew is about to disband.

Father and mother, Madam Pan, have disappeared.

What does it mean to disappear?

There was nothing inside.

There is no kitchen

There was no latrine.

I can't find it anywhere.

It was still there last night.

She ran away, she definitely ran away.

My sister-in-law is just going back to her parents' home.

He'll be back in a few days.

You know nothing!

I knew all along that her heart had changed.

She told me just a few days ago that she wanted her own child.

He won't go back and spread rumors, will he?

He dares me to arrest him.

Daring to gossip outside

I broke his legs.

Shut up and go to the Pan family first.

Daughter

Why did you come back before dawn?

Did you two argue about the kids again?

Sigh, we're in the wrong here.

You haven't gotten pregnant for several years

The Zhao family didn't divorce you.

That's already quite generous.

Just bear with any grievances.

After you finish eating, have your older brother take you home.

Mom and Dad, I have something I want to say to you privately.

I'll go close the door.

What happened?

Big Pillar hit you again.

no

Then why are you crying? Tell me quickly.

These years

Do you also think I can't have children?

How many doctors have I seen?

Everyone says I have no health problems.

That

This time, Uncle San invited a truly good doctor.

It's not me who can't have children.

What does that mean?

I can give birth

The doctor said there was nothing wrong with my body.

The real problem is with the big pillar.

Can men also not have children?

You can have sex, but you can't get the woman pregnant.

My mother

Is the doctor reliable?

It was a famous doctor that my third uncle hired at great expense.

It was shown to me first.

Make sure I'm okay

Only then did they examine the large beads.

How many doctors have I seen over the years?

Who didn't say I could have children?

But the Zhao family just wouldn't believe it.

My mother-in-law scolded me for not being able to lay eggs.

Big Pillar took his anger out on me

I do all the dirty and tiring work at home.

My poor daughter

It wasn't my fault.

Why should I have to memorize this for so many years?

Can that big pillar still be cured?

The doctor said at most 20%.

One dose of medicine costs several hundred coins

Several sets a month

It might not be effective even after eating it for a year or ten years.

What should we do then?

He wants to adopt a son.

I disagree

No other person's child can compare to your own.

You are clearly capable of giving birth

Why can't I have my own child for the rest of my life?

That's what I think too.

I can give birth to the child I want.

So what do you think?

I still want to go back to the Zhao family and continue living with Dazhuzi.

I don't want to think about it anymore.

There's no hope for my daughter's family.

Parents

I don't want to go back.

The eldest and second eldest brothers both came in.

So these past few years

They've always taken advantage of you because you can't have children.

Yeah, go back my ass.

After divorce

Life isn't easy either.

Even if things get worse

It's better than going back to be a cow for that family.

Sister, if you really don't want to live...

We'll back you up.

Remarriage doesn't necessarily guarantee wealth.

At least there's still the chance to have your own child.

It's better than serving a lazy bum in the Zhao family.

Daughter, what are you doing?

My parents have been like this all these years because I don't have children.

You can't hold your heads up when you're with me.

I can give birth again if I don't need it anymore.

I didn't bring shame to the Pan family.

It was the Zhao family who wronged us.

stand up

In-laws

Why are you staring at Han?

You're really something!

Oh, it's just a couple bickering.

I ran back early in the morning

We were worried all the way.

Are you sure?

It's a quarrel

Let the young couple resolve their own issues.

It's not good for elders to get too involved.

Now I know I shouldn't have gotten involved.

What did you tell me before?

My daughter can't have children.

Sooner or later, she won't be tolerated.

I didn't say that.

My father's family also said that I'm more loyal to my mother's family.

Bring all the good stuff to your parents' house.

Pan, you can yell at anyone and they'll shut up.

Things have come to this point.

Don't hide it.

My daughter can have children.

The one who can't have children is your Zhao family's son.

Okay, let's not talk about anything else, Pan.

What exactly do you want?

I want a divorce

Divorce

Say it again.

I said

I want a divorce

Just because I can't let you have a child

You're about to run

Not just because of the children

I'll do the chores you're lazy about.

I do the housework

You pretend you don't hear your mother scolding you.

You pretend you can't hear me.

You take your anger out on me when you're upset.

I used to think it was because I couldn't have children.

So I endured it.

Now I know the fault wasn't mine at all.

Why should I tolerate this?

Well said and divorce

You dream of leaving me

Then go die.

Are you speaking human language?

Pan, you are gone.

I'll set you free.

Ah ah

Don't hit me, you bastard!

Get out of here, all of you from the Zhao family!

Who among you dares to speak of my affairs?

I'll make your whole family suffer.

You dare touch a single person in my family

I dare to cut off pieces of your flesh and walk around with them.

Father, are you really going to let that slut ride roughshod over us?

That's not how you calculate it.

Find your third uncle

Third Uncle

He was the one who found the doctor.

It was he who brought this all to light.

He needs to give us an explanation for this.

The third daughter, surnamed Pan, is now seeking a divorce.

It's all because of you

Because of me

If it weren't for my third uncle insisting that I see a doctor...

Will my family fall apart?

Hmm, I understand now.

Who was it that begged me to find a doctor back then?

Is it you?

I told you this long ago

Not having children isn't necessarily all the woman's problem.

This is something I had mentioned in advance.

Watching together as a couple

How did you agree to that?

But you can't let the doctor say that in front of Madam Pan.

I need to know beforehand that he really is sick.

For decades you've been convinced that Pan is infertile.

I, an outsider, still have to stand up for...

You should think ahead about how to keep it from him.

But now the Pan family wants to leave.

Dazhu's wife is gone.

What does her leaving have to do with me?

She cannot give birth.

You're going to divorce her.

If you couldn't have children

Why can't he talk to you?

My family was perfectly fine.

You destroyed it.

Don't try to pin this on me.

I heard you do nothing at home.

He worked in the field

He does housework

You're like an old man, opening your mouth and waiting for food.

Not a single bet was won.

Do not do any work

And they keep using their inability to give birth to pressure others.

Second brother

You don't teach your own child when they make a mistake

It's always someone else's fault.

What will happen to your family in the future?

Don't look for me again.

Zhao Dashu

I won't take the blame for this.

Helping him get a doctor turned out to be a mistake.

I'm just being silly.

father

They will come again.

Come again

Pan was determined to divorce.

Big Pillar was determined not to let go.

It got bigger and bigger

They'll definitely try to drag you out to take the blame.

What to do then?

Later, when my second uncle's family came to visit...

Just say we're not home.

yes

So, where did they go?

have no idea

Other people's pots

We don't accept.

Big Pillar

Maybe we should just forget about it.

Whatever

Pan is determined not to live with you.

What's the point of keeping it?

I will never divorce.

My son

Her family has something on you.

If it really gets out

What face do you have left?

They dare not

You really have no brains.

I've seen several doctors in the county town.

I watched

Everyone says it's Da Zhuzi's problem.

Da Yong

Your Zhao family is in the wrong in this matter.

The clan chief's daughter has suffered a lot of mistreatment over the years.

Now that I know I can give birth

She didn't want to waste her whole life on this.

That's acceptable.

Let her go.

That's what I think too.

But Dazhuzi absolutely refused.

What consequences will follow?

Let him bear it himself

Let's ask a question today.

Release or not?

Pan really wants a divorce

Isn't she infertile?

Who else would you need?

Who says my sister can't have children?

The doctor could see it clearly.

He is the one who can't get a woman pregnant.

ah

Shut up, all of you, shut up!

As the head of the household, all I want is a divorce.

You're dreaming.

Da Zhuzi, things have come to this point, let her go.

Why?

Just because she doesn't want to be with you

Han

You dare touch her?

I can't let her get pregnant.

She is my lawfully wedded wife.

Cannot give it to his child

I still want to drag him down for the rest of my life.

Ask him

Who has been sleeping on my kang (heated brick bed) all these years?

Stop talking.

How many times have I argued with him for the sake of the child?

He knows best

I'll beat you to death, you shameless bastard!

Dare to touch my older brother

Come on, folks!

Go!

This is your family matter.

Hahaha

Stop hitting! Stop hitting!

Stop right there!

You really know how to make things worse.

Big Pillar, I'm asking you one last time.

You can't bear to part with the Pan family.

I still can't bear to have one less person to do the housework.

Forget about the son.

Let her go.

Or I'll divorce her.

Divorce

Don't even think about it.

From now on, don't bother the clan with your affairs anymore.

Take it out

What do you want to do?

You won't listen when I try to reason with you.

Then I won't go into it.

Let go of me, I won't press it.

Press down

It's been so quick all along

It's not over yet.

Traitor

Walk

Why should everyone help him?

Son, stop smashing it!

My clansmen won't help me

My fellow villagers won't help me.

Even you guys are telling me to let him go.

I warned you long ago

You still say it's because you don't listen?

The place is a mess today.

You smashed it yourself.

You ruined your own life.

Old lady, I've heard something big.

Tell me quickly

Young Master Dazhu and Madam Pan divorced.

Those who don't lay eggs should have been divorced long ago.

It's not that she can't have children.

It's Young Master Dazhu's problem.

What

How can a man still have children?

The doctor saw

The second master also accepted it.

Then find him a wife.

The old lady knew he couldn't have children.

Which family would be willing to marry their daughter into this family?

Free

I'm not having a good time.

Why should you have it easy?

Pan

Our business isn't over yet.

Why

This is not something you can eat.

Stop teasing him.

I'll just test how bad his temper is.

I don't know if he has a bad temper.

All I know is that you're really asking for it.

Hahaha

Uncle

Let me tell you something serious.

Tell me.

The Big Pillar Incident

It's probably not over yet.

They pressed their fingerprints.

What else can we do?

Everyone in the village says

He lost so much face

It's impossible to just accept it like that.

He won't cause trouble for the Pan family, will he?

I'm worried about it.

That's a matter between their two families.

Dad is right

However, Dazhu is the kind of person who can't afford to lose.

The more embarrassed you feel

The easier it is to do something that violates a certain bottom line.

They're still not calm even after they're divorced.

Hmph, if he really dares to act recklessly again...

I won't clean up his mess.

The meaning over there is still the same.

The person is hardworking and has several acres of land.

Daughter

If you don't want to

We're not in a hurry.

I want to see

That's right.

Although they are officials

But he's also a person who lives a normal life.

Let me make it clear first, my sister has suffered before, and this time...

Who would dare to slight her?

I'll be the first to disagree.

I know

Finding another job so quickly

I've never finished talking about the Pan family.

Adding two gold bracelets would make it even more festive.

Mother, are you really planning to dress him up as Maitreya Buddha?

Haha, Maitreya Buddha is good!

My grandson is clearly blessed.

Um

Remove your hand

Who is it that's banging on the door during the Chinese New Year?

Help! Open the door!

Master and Second Master have arrived.

Second Uncle

Crying a lot

He kept shouting for help

Hahaha

Second brother, what is this?

Second brother

Third son

Save Big Pillar

What happened to the person who got up first?

I was beaten by the Pan family.

He was covered in blood when he was brought back.

He only had one breath left.

The village doctor said we should hurry and send my third brother to the county town.

I'm begging you, please lend me a car.

Any later and my son would have died.

housekeeper

master

Choose the fastest horse to harness the cart

yes

Thank you, thank you, third brother.

My son, open your eyes!

Don't scare your mother!

Please, dear readers, help me by adding this to your favorites!

Please follow me!

If this continues, there won't be any rice left to cook.

Our film crew is about to disband.

Hurry up and take it to the county town.

Ahhh

They've all divorced.

How did he let the Pan family get beaten up like this again?

That's the question we should be asking.

Dad, save my life!

But if your second uncle comes back, he'll ask you to avenge Dazhu.

Don't just listen to what he says.

Let's find out the truth first.

Two people came

Go to Panjia Village

I need to know exactly what Dazhu did.

The master has found out...

explain

Pan has already arranged a new marriage.

Planning to get married after the New Year

Then what

Young Master Dazhu heard it from somewhere.

He went straight to the man's house.

What did he go to do?

It was a huge commotion, and it was incredibly ugly.

What exactly are you here for?

Oh

I just came to tell you...

The woman you want to marry

My ex-wife, whom I slept with for many years

What's his personality and habits?

I know better than anyone else

Shut up

I don't like listening to this.

What is this?

She used to wear

People I don't want

You're rushing to pick it up

We're not going through with this marriage.

What happened? Why all of a sudden?

The men in front of you have all come knocking on your door.

He... he actually

Walk

Ah, my daughter

I've already divorced.

Why won't he leave me alone?

Don't be silly.

How am I supposed to face anyone after this?

Brother, I can't take it anymore!

I can't stand it either.

How could he know your sister's engagement?

This indicates that they have been keeping an eye on things in the village these past few days.

Then don't go looking for him.

Wait for him to come.

I'd like to see who he can turn to next.

I've been waiting for you for ages.

Let's calculate slowly this time.

She got pregnant before her arranged marriage and still dared to come here.

I can go wherever I want.

You took my sister's undergarment to someone else's house.

How dare you come here?

What's a bellyband?

Ah, I have other clothes there.

Do you want to?

I'll give you two items.

You're asking for it, or I'll be in big trouble.

He shouldn't expect to have an easy time either.

Hehehe

Go ahead and hit me, kill me if you dare!

You still dare to say that?

Pan

Stop! Someone's going to die!

ah

Let me go, I'll kill this beast today.

I'd rather kill him.

There's still air.

I've lived to this old age

I've never heard of such a despicable person.

This is no longer just being foolish.

He knew what he was doing.

He's just bad at it.

Pan Shi is not allowed to be good either.

Absolutely rotten

Bad guy, bad guy

Hey, you bird can talk!

Bad guys

I've been teaching you for so long and you still don't say anything.

You've learned to swear pretty fast, huh?

This time the insult wasn't wrong.

Was it still breathing when it was sent back?

have

Please don't die.

They should have called me back then.

I stabbed him to death.

My daughter, he's ruined my life.

I really want to kill him.

I have a request.

He mustn't really be dead.

Why hasn't anyone from the Zhao family arrived yet?

Could he really be dead?

Don't talk nonsense

As long as he's not dead

Everything is still negotiable

Doctor, how is my son?

His life was temporarily saved.

But one leg was broken.

One of his hands was also broken.

What

There are also internal injuries

More skin and flesh injuries

My son

Pan Family

I'm not done with them yet.

father

Son, you said

Don't let the Pan family get away.

I was beaten up like this

They should pay back 10 times the amount.

We can't fight for nothing.

Don't worry

I'm going to find your third uncle right now.

snort

The third brother opened the door.

Second Master, our Master is busy

Busy my ass! His own nephew has a broken leg and a broken arm!

I was almost beaten to death

father

My second uncle has come to seek justice.

To seek justice, one must first see who has the right principles.

Uncle Zhao, get out here!

My son was almost beaten to death.

As the third uncle, are you even going to care about this?

Zhao Dashu, come out here!

There's not much to say about Dad going out.

snort

really

Tell the second master I don't care

Second Master, our Master said

He won't get involved in this.

What

They also said it's best to ask questions before causing trouble.

Who is at fault?

Zhao Dazhu

clan chief

Big Pillar's legs are all broken.

My hand is broken too.

The Pan family is going to kill someone!

I know he was badly injured.

But let me ask you first.

They've all divorced.

What was he doing in Panjia Village again?

I didn't ask further.

You don't even know why you were beaten.

They want me to lead my people to seek revenge.

No matter the reason

You can't kill them!

That's why I need to figure it out.

If the Pan family beats without cause

I'll make the decision for you.

But what if Dazhuzi does something immoral first?

Wait, he really took Pan's undergarment and ran away.

The newly engaged couple went to show off.

Not only did they take it

And say it in front of her future in-laws

A bunch of dirty words from the couple's bedroom

The marriage was thus called off.

What's his motive?

Making yourself miserable

They won't let the Pan family have an easy time either.

How can I stand up for him when something like this is happening?

So I ignored my second brother when he came to me.

I don't care

One's own child is a treasure

Other people's daughters are not worthless either

father

How many people did Uncle San bring?

Did they break the arms and legs of those Pan family members too?

My injuries are so severe

My third uncle must have found me a good doctor, right?

No

What

Your third uncle didn't go to the Pan family.

They wouldn't even let me in the door.

What about the clan leader?

The clan leader also needs to ask clearly first.

What exactly did you do?

Son, just tell me.

That's why I got beaten up like this.

Nobody stood up for me.

Please, dear readers, help me by adding this to your favorites!

Please follow me!

If this continues, there won't be any rice left to cook.

Our film crew is about to disband.

What exactly did you do?

Son, I want the family to stand up for you.

You have to tell the truth.

I went to see her new man.

What

I ruined her marriage.

How did you stir it up?

I went to that house

I told her about my past with Ms. Pan.

you

I also took out her undergarment.

You took a woman's personal items

He went to his new in-laws' house

And they really did break off the engagement.

Hahaha, she still dreams of getting married, hahaha!

Son, your method is too cruel!

Mother, I am your son.

You still know you're my son

They've already divorced you.

You even went to ruin her marriage.

He even took someone else's undergarment and made a fool of himself.

How can I possibly face the clan chief?

How dare you approach your third uncle?

You deserved that beating.

father

My leg is broken, my arm is broken.

You still speak up for the Pan family

I didn't speak up for them.

I mean, you went too far first.

Who can stand up for you now?

I don't care

They beat me up like this

You have to pay compensation.

Pan Family

Pan

I will make them pay for their crimes in blood.

I'm out of money.

What do you mean? This trip to the doctor has turned me into...

Your mother has emptied her savings.

If you go back and your second sister-in-law...

Knowing that it cost so much money

I still don't know what to do.

A woman can turn the world upside down

Dare to cause trouble? We'll fight!

What did you say?

If they don't listen, I'll beat them twice.

Women will only obey if they are beaten.

Your second brother is so protective of his wife, he treats her like the apple of his eye.

You dare to touch the Guo family

Let's see if Erzhuzi will fight you to the death.

My second brother is just ignorant.

Only one woman in a lifetime would be so precious.

Don't say anything more

Take good care of your injury.

It's fine if the Pan family doesn't clean up the mess.

When I get better

I'll do it myself.

She wanted a good life.

dream

I can't feel my legs anymore.

Shrink in

How can it shrink?

Your third uncle's car is still better.

Don't mention him

The kang (heated brick bed) has just been heated.

It will warm up in a little while

Why are you running?

I went to help my wife.

Stay away from your older brother, remember?

I've got it.

Don't do that again.

Don't bother looking for Pan anymore.

Find a wife from afar in a year or two.

New bride

Why should I go first?

He's not completely rotten yet.

I'm not done with him yet.

Lei Zi, look at my handwriting.

Is he even more handsome than last year?

Dad has made great progress

I knew it

Dad, stop bragging a little.

Quickly paste couplets

Today is Yuanbao's first Lunar New Year's Eve.

Um

My grandson's first New Year

It must be prosperous and thriving

Hahaha

New Year's Eve

You keep it indoors.

I'm not going to any of them.

How can you go like this?

Carry it over there to make a fool of yourself in front of the whole village.

It's all the Pan family's fault.

Brother, say less.

Take good care of your injury.

roll

Let him go crazy

We celebrate our New Year.

The third one is here.

Is it cold outside?

The wind is like a knife

Where is the big pillar?

Recovering at home

What injury?

Let the Pan family take the taxi

They even dared to hit my grandson

The injury can be serious

My leg is broken and my arm is broken too.

The doctor also said

I'm afraid I'll have to walk with a limp from now on.

My poor grandson!

Boss, go to the Pan family and demand justice.

My family are all scholars.

Unable to even kill a chicken

This matter needs to be addressed with the third brother.

The third family has so many people

Call over twenty or thirty strong men at will

Who in the Pan family dares to act recklessly?

You are a scholar, sir.

My nephew got beaten up like this

You can still sit and eat.

What do you say, third brother?

I don't care

What did you say?

I have a lot to say.

I won't make a scene for them.

Third son

Don't yell.

Da Zhuzi took Pan's bellyband to ruin a marriage proposal.

He wandered around Panjia Village again.

They didn't actually kill him.

He's lucky to be alive.

I won't mention the matter of my third brother seeking revenge.

But the legs of the big pillar

The county doctor said it might deflate.

How about you invite that miracle doctor from last time to take a look?

Can't come

We went to admit our mistake.

Last time someone treated you

You say they're swindling and deceiving people.

How many noble people have they seen in the capital and the prefectural capital?

Why should I put up with your temper again and again?

What about my grandson's leg?

There are doctors in the county town

Treat it as it should be.

I'm incompetent.

Dad, you really didn't ask about my cousin's injuries at all?

Can I not ask?

I already had someone consult a doctor.

How about it?

Hands can recover and legs can be properly cared for.

At most, he walks with a slight limp.

Without delaying getting to work

It won't delay your work

That's why my second aunt cried so much.

Anyone who didn't know better would think his leg was going to be sawed off.

I'll save your life if you need it.

But he brought this upon himself.

He even wants me to use my personal connections to cover for him.

Hmph, no way!

Oh, it even smiles at me!

He loves to laugh.

This child is blessed.

Huang brought my little cotton quilt.

Wrap the child

Milk

This is for my daughter.

If not her, then who?

First time meeting the child

I didn't prepare anything.

For my little niece to play with

ah

What incredible luck I've had today!

I always say my daughter is beautiful.

You're quite good at making yourself look good.

Hey Lei Zi

What do you usually teach at your Fucheng Academy?

The content of the examination for the imperial examination

The cheaper academies in the prefectural city

How much tuition fee per year?

I haven't asked any other companies.

What about admissions?

What are the requirements?

I don't know either.

Oh

This stir-fried radish is really good.

No rush, I'll ask you slowly later.

Oh right, eldest, second, and third sons.

Did this year's pension funds and food supplies arrive?

The food has been delivered to the kitchen.

The silver is here

Oh, I brought one too.

That's more like it.

Huang went to pour a few bowls of boiled water.

Okay, madam

eldest and third son

Drink some hot water to cleanse your palate

It's cold outside

It will be warmer on the way back.

Mother's thinking is indeed more thoughtful.

Mother, then we won't stay any longer.

So that the road won't be too difficult to travel if I go back late.

Go ahead and drive slowly.

Mother, please rest early.

Second son

You stay

Is there anything else, Mother?

You're acting really strange today.

What happened to me?

absent-minded while eating

He kept hiding it in his sleeve.

Second son

Tell your mother the truth

What exactly are you hiding in your sleeve?

The third son is good at managing money.

None of the three of us can compare to you.

Brother, don't praise me first.

I know you have something going on as soon as you praise me.

After the New Year, I want my eldest son to study in the prefectural city.

His wife is about to give birth.

How can a man revolve around his wife and children all day long?

The city is not cheap.

Tuition, meals, lodging, writing materials

Which one doesn't cost money?

Brother, you really can afford it.

That's why I wanted to discuss this with you.

Not a penny less

Hmph, what about you, second brother?

Second Master

This time, Dazhuzi's injury was too serious.

Seeing a doctor and getting medicine

They emptied the family's coffers.

The Pan family didn't lose a single penny.

I am truly penniless right now.

Mom, I really have no money.

What

Big Pillar has money for medical treatment

You don't have money to support your own mother in her old age.

Mother, that's not what I meant.

What does that mean?

Why am I lying here?

It's all because of your three little pearls!

The money for the bracelet hasn't been paid off yet.

Now you even want to renege on your pension?

Old man

Why did you die so young?

Open your eyes and look at your dutiful son!

His son ruined me like this.

Now he won't even give me my retirement money, you unfilial son!

An unfilial son who deserves to be struck by lightning.

Old lady, have a drink of water.

Step down, Ms. Huang.

Second son

Mother, I'm tired.

Second brother, why are you crying?

daughter

Sometimes I really want to go find my dad.

Does death bring relief?

I really think

I've had enough of living.

I do it every day and every night.

All year round

Not a single penny can be saved

Mother, look.

Haha, I'm only 40!

40

Why is life so tiring?

Hahaha, I can't control Big Pillar!

I can't control Sanzhuzi

One who cannot give birth

One who spends all day outside

What terrible things have I done?

Second Master, please stop hitting me.

Mother, please tell Father.

Let him take me away.

Second son

Never mind the big pillar, never mind it.

Don't worry about Sanzhuzi.

daughter

I'm worried

They can't be relied on anymore.

The two beads were a bit soft.

But he's not a bad person at heart.

Be nicer to the second son and his wife in the future.

When you get old, the only people who will truly care for you are those who bring you water and food.

I'm afraid only he

Let's calculate my retirement money this year.

Holding

daughter

What are you looking at? I won't give it to you.

What if you really exhaust yourself to death?

Live more for yourself from now on

The child is growing up

They have their own destiny

Your mother scolded you again.

Your mother gave it to you

daughter in law

I'm really tired of living.

The head of the household, how about I have Sanzhu find a few people?

What do you need someone for?

The Pan family beat my son like that.

If that's true, then forget it.

never mind

What

I said forget it

ah

These three ounces are what my mother gave me to keep me alive.

It's not about avenging Da Zhuzi.

It's not for finding slackers for Sanzhuzi to spend money on.

That's our own son.

It's because we always say we're the biological son.

That's why they've been spoiled into this state.

I'm only 40.

Keep filling their holes

I won't even live to 50.

I'll manage the family money from now on.

you

Big Pillar Wants to Make a Move

Let him do it himself

Sanzhuzi wanted to get by

Let him make his own way

The children are all grown up

Everyone has their own destiny.

From now on, we will only live for ourselves.

Third brother, I'm thinking of taking the eldest to study in the prefectural city after the New Year.

Let me make it clear first, I won't charge tuition.

I didn't ask you to pay.

That's good

I just wanted to go to the prefectural city with you guys sometime.

Sure

But you rent the car yourself.

Bring your own food.

We will go together

Others are in charge of their own affairs.

Renting a car yourself is also an option.

There's another little thing.

What's up?

I heard you own a house in Fucheng?

Ah, our first trip to the prefectural city

Unfamiliar with the place

Staying at a guesthouse also costs money

How about we borrow that house for a few days?

Third brother, your house in the city is just sitting empty anyway.

My older brother and I will stay here for a few days.

Save money on guesthouse

Don't lend

What

I said I wouldn't lend it.

It's not like I'm not going to return your house to my own brother.

The house still needs to be returned

The eldest son will study in the prefectural city later.

Someone has to look after them, right?

Let him stay at your house

I read aloud with Xiao Lei this morning.

It's so convenient to come back together at night.

There are only two things I can help with.

If you're really sick, I'll help you find a doctor.

I didn't go out during the holidays

Come and have a meal

That's it.

You will have to pay for the medicine and consultation yourself.

Zhao Dashu, aren't you going too far?

I don't think so

You're so rich

What can you do if you help your nephew?

Big brother, do you still remember?

When Xiaoyu was little, she was so sick she almost died.

I carried him to the county town to find you.

Xiao Yu was so burned she lost consciousness.

I beg you, please let us come inside and warm up.

What did you say?

How many years ago was that?

You think he's unlucky

I was standing outside your door that day.

The child felt hot against my back, like fire.

I, as the father, can't even give...

He couldn't even find a room to warm himself.

Old, trivial matters

Why do you still remember it?

I will remember this for the rest of my life.

Don't you care about my child?

Why should I feel sorry for your son now?

You've got the ability now.

They turn their backs on people and deny everything.

I really want to help you

That's what I'm doing wrong to my wife.

I'm sorry, Xiaoyu

Raise your own child

Good Uncle Zhao, remember this.

snort

You're more likely to fall if you walk too fast.

Some things have passed.

I just can't forget.

Third brother made you angry again.

No house, no car

He didn't even want to interfere much with the eldest son's affairs in the prefectural city.

Can we still afford it?

for

We can't ruin our boss's future.

But I need to get him to write something.

What

Guarantee

father

If I really want to write

Write

Your family will scrimp and save to send you to the prefectural city.

If you are successful

Don't forget your brother

I'll help him out later.

Give him a bite to eat

If you can't achieve success on your own, you kick your family away.

White paper and black text

How could I possibly ignore my own brother?

Humphing won't work

When I was young, I was also very good at speaking and dictation.

Only then do I feel at ease.

Look!

silver bracelet

Mother, this is the first time in my life I've ever touched real silver.

I told them that my third uncle and aunt liked our daughter.

From now on, if anyone says these three families are stingy...

Who do I turn against?

I was wrong

etc.

Three Pillars

right

Hidden cabinet

no

roof beams

You forgot what your uncle's family used to hide?

The roof was all dug out.

This is our daughter's.

I'll fight anyone who dares to mess with me.

Where exactly is it hidden?

I've thought of a place

Make sure no one can find it any deeper.

They've almost dug up to their ancestors' graves.

Four silver bracelets?

Sanzhuzi even dares to steal your parents' money.

I bet he won't find it.

Then I'll go deeper.

This is our daughter's family fortune.

No one can touch it

I don't believe it can be lost again this time.

What if my parents ask what my third uncle's family gave us?

200,000

Let's say the two boxes together cost 200,000.

It's wrong to lie, isn't it?

Don't lie to them

The bracelet is still left

I wish this bracelet was worth a lot of silver.

How

Let's save up some more money and build our own house.

I don't want to be on guard against thieves every day.

Beware of your in-laws and your older brother

Or I could go to the county town to sell vegetables.

What if you get exhausted?

One or two years of hard work

We moved out

Xiaoyu Girl

I need to apologize to you.

What's wrong?

Yesterday, Granny Guo asked you what you gave us.

I said I only had 20 coins.

I'm afraid I can't save it.

Money should never be seen at home.

Tibetan pig tools have been laid underground.

Cousin, you're really ruthless.

I have no choice but to save more.

Move out as soon as possible

How does my cousin plan to make money?

We're thinking of growing vegetables.

Sell ​​in the county town

My cousin isn't suited for business.

However, my family's shop in the county town happens to be hiring after the New Year.

Let my cousin give it a try.

I really guarantee he'll work honestly.

Absolutely no tricks

Don't swear

I'll pay him whatever he pays.

If you do a good job, you'll stay.

Even if you don't do a good job, you'll still be dismissed.

It is appropriate

What good things is happening with my wife?

He was laughing like he'd won the lottery.

There's hope for us, the head of the household, to move out!

Are you really going to send Erzhuzi to work at the shop?

The shop was also looking to hire people.

Inviting anyone isn't the same as inviting someone.

He is honest by nature

Move things

Greeting guests

It should be possible to do

How will the wages be calculated?

How many others

He gave me no more than a penny.

Not a single article

That's right.

I am not raising relatives.

Give him a chance

Can you stand up?

Look at himself

You'll really be able to earn money in the county town in the future!

Once I've settled into my new job...

I'll take you and your child over.

real

Rent a small courtyard

You take care of the child

Plant some vegetables and raise two chickens

I work during the day

I'll be back tonight.

We can really manage on our own.

able

We, the owners, want to move out.

I haven't even seen the job yet.

You two are so happy?

Pack in advance

I think you're completely controlled by your wife.

A grown man

My wife always agrees with me.

I didn't pressure him.

Parents, what's wrong with me listening to my wife?

I think it's good to listen to your wife.

My days are becoming more and more hopeful.

What brings you here?

Second Madam, I've come to see Young Master Erzhu.

Find me to be the boss

The shop has been arranged.

Tomorrow at Chen Shi (7-9 AM)

I've come to pick up Young Master Erzhuzi and take him to the county town.

It's really settled.

It's settled.

Head of household

I know

This time we can really go outside.

I packed up early

Thank you, housekeeper.

hey-hey

What kind of work will you be given?

have no idea

You agreed without even knowing what it was supposed to do.

I'll find out when I get there.

Mother, I'm leaving tomorrow.

From now on, my wife and children will stay at home.

Don't cause her any trouble.

I bullied her

When did I become a wicked mother-in-law?

I'm just telling the truth.

you

Okay

I'll talk to my parents again about how to arrange things for the future.

Old Man Cheng

The second son is gone.

What to do for spring plowing

Guo's family is still around.

What can she do with a child?

Unable to get out of bed, I stay home doing laundry, cooking, feeding pigs, and raising chickens.

There's so much chores at home.

But didn't the second brother say not to bully her?

Hmph, with the second son not home, we're in charge.

It would be best if she were willing.

You have to agree whether you want to or not.

Oh right, the second son went to the county town.

What about the wages?

Of course, take it home.

I'm worried that Sanzhuzi won't have enough money to get married in the future.

And that's how it is.

The second son will work for two or three years.

You can always save up some money.

The big help the small

It should have been

You're very thoughtful.

I can let him do his work.

Naturally, they could also prevent him from going.

If he earns money but doesn't give it to his family...

Don't go to the county town either.

Head of household

I said it long ago.

Of the three sons, the second one was the easiest to control.

The money I used to earn

They've already divided it up.

I finally understand.

You haven't even made any money yet!

They've even planned out how to spend your wages.

He even said he'd deal with me after you left.

Don't cry

Come with me

Your children all left.

those parents

Didn't Dad say that once my older brother leaves the house, there's no going back?

I'll show him another one that he can't pull back.

My few acres of land

Would you be willing to rent?

You're not planting anymore.

I work in my county town

The rent will be paid according to village rules.

I don't want much.

good

What if you can't stay in the county town for long?

I'm not as stupid as my parents say.

Working hard will always leave a mark

Rent a small courtyard

You grow vegetables and raise chickens

I earn wages

Nobody is ordering you around.

Nobody's eyeing my money.

become

Be quiet, don't wake people up.

ah

fine

I've lived here for so many years

Reluctant

I can't bear to part with this.

etc.

Second son

You go to the county town to do some work

What to do with a pot?

Are you trying to take your wife and children with you?

You're not allowed to leave, your wife and children are all gone.

Who does the housework?

Mom, I've already rented it out.

When did you rent it?

yesterday

It's after listening to what you all said about the money I earned

After getting Sanzhuzi a wife

You were eavesdropping.

If I don't listen

I still don't know that my parents...

My whole life is planned out

I have already separated from my family.

From now on

We live on our own

My second brother is really gone.

Having a wife makes you forget your parents

Mother, we'll go to the county town in a few days.

At least we need to know where they live.

How much money

Sanzhuzi also often hangs out in the county town.

If I have nowhere to stay in the future, I'll go to my second brother's house.

Sister-in-law taking care of her brother-in-law

It is only natural

I want to get away from this family

It's not that easy.

It's a bit off.

But the yard is big

700 articles in half a year

You also need to deposit money.

Not enough cash

This is my daughter.

First be a

We'll redeem it later.

This courtyard is truly ours now.

rented

It's also renting our house.

Hahaha

We'll plant vegetables in this corner from now on.

build chicken coops there

Save up some more silver

Buy a new cotton-padded jacket for my daughter

I'll buy it for you first.

roll

daughter in law

Um

We really moved out.

For the future

This is our home.

I really don't want to go.

Father was just saying goodbye.

Grandma, look at my nose now.

It's not a nose or eyes.

I used to just offer my warm face to a cold backside.

Hurry up and go, it's getting dark if you dawdle any longer.

Wife, you must remember the suffering I've endured for this family.

roll

Mother, I'll be returning to the prefectural city the day after tomorrow.

I'll go first while Cheng Niang rests.

Third brother, when are you coming back next time?

have no idea

You yourself don't know

What should I do then?

As before

If you need anything, go to the clan chief or the eldest brother.

If that doesn't work, go to my house and find the housekeeper.

Third brother, my body

The doctor in the prefectural city is good

Why can't you take your mother with you?

daughter

I've said this so many times

I'm afraid I won't live long.

Mother, I won't take you away.

I don't want to break off relations with you.

But don't force me.

You now have someone to serve you.

There is food to eat and medicine to drink

I won't ignore anything that's really serious.

You can't come with me to the prefectural city.

I am your biological mother

That's why I'm still standing here trying to talk to you properly.

Third brother

My older brother is leaving the day after tomorrow.

So fast

He rented a car and came to my house to wait for me in the morning.

We won't come to the village to pick you up.

Bring enough dry food yourself

Water to prepare yourself

Pay for the fare yourself

They are all brothers

As for calculating so meticulously

As for what else

I won't wait if it's too late.

If you can keep up, then keep up.

Can't keep up with yourself

He doesn't call this leading us.

It wasn't originally intended to be brought

Just going the same way

Is the third brother still not leaving?

Brother, why are you here so early?

It wasn't you who told me to come earlier.

I didn't call you for breakfast, and you were squatting at the door before dawn!

Please sit down first.

We haven't had breakfast yet.

What

Traveling is not about running for your life.

father

Tolerate

When you become successful

Dad will get his revenge for what he did today.

Dad is hot

My son can endure hardship.

It won't taste good if it gets cold.

I don't care

father

fine

Who brings dumplings on the road?

I still don't understand this question, brother-in-law.

This cannot be memorized by rote.

First, we need to analyze the meaning of the question.

So that's how it is.

It's only a little clearer than what I explained.

Why

What did the older brother say?

Eat your

We have arrived at the prefectural city.

We've finally arrived.

Dad, I will definitely study hard.

Isn't the third brother living in the prefectural city?

etc.

Big brother is home

Third brother, all of this belongs to your family.

How is it?

That piece of land also

yes

What about the courtyard over there?

Too

How rich is your family?

have no idea

You must be tired from the journey, have a quick meal!

Another bowl

Big Brother

You haven't eaten along the way.

All I ate were pancakes.

Brother, could you slow down?

This appetite

I couldn't eat this much when I was young.

Big Brother

My dad used to call me a good-for-nothing.

I've really opened my eyes today.

Don't move

I didn't move.

You can't move now either.

Boil plum juice

Help them exorcise evil spirits

yes

Grandpa

Smash

It's too big to fit.

I didn't laugh, I really didn't laugh.

I can walk

Help!

Hey hey

Haha, big brother

I'll have the kitchen make extra tomorrow morning.

Do

I'll eat again tomorrow morning.

Big Brother

What to do?

Eat less today

Why?

I'm afraid you'll have to carry it back inside again.

Oh

Remove the food

I'm not full yet.

You also said yesterday that you weren't full.

I almost vomited from overeating.

I'll eat again tomorrow.

You have to eat at home tomorrow.

Go find a house

So urgent

No rush, I can let you stay one more night at most.

I still don't understand those questions from my brother-in-law.

I have to go back to the academy.

today

Classes have already started.

I delayed for too long

We need to make up for what we missed.

You've already learned better than me.

Still working so hard

There's never enough time to study.

This courtyard faces a good direction.

It's not far from the exam venue.

How much

600 words per month

Too expensive

This is 300 coins cheaper.

Too dilapidated and too far

Too small

Big Brother

You think the expensive ones are too expensive

You think the cheap ones are worn out?

You've practically walked through the entire prefectural city.

Are you here to rent a room or are you trying to leech off my place?

I'm putting my words here.

At most tomorrow

Can't decide yet

I personally escorted you two to the inn.

We were unfamiliar with the place.

I took Xiaoyu to the county town back then.

What did you say before?

I remember it very clearly.

The one with 300 coins

Yeah, if only it had been done so easily earlier, it would have been over.

father

The house has been booked.

It's settled.

father

How

I suddenly realized that life in the prefectural city was tough.

What are you afraid of?

Moving out tomorrow

Why

tonight

Give it another good beating

The eldest son ate meat

clear

Two pieces per person

Don't steal it from anyone.

You eat every day

What are you trying to steal from me?

stolen incense

How old are you?

We'll move tomorrow.

Congratulations

The master has delivered all the items.

I'll take my leave.

Why

Dad really lives here

Why can't I stay here?

I'll be coming over tomorrow to cook, do laundry, and clean.

150 coins per month

It's a promise.

It's agreed

What to eat today?

Selling steamed buns

Earning tuition fees requires money

Pens and ink cost money

Books cost money too.

Xiao Lei has returned to the academy today.

Horse-drawn carriage

The servant followed

The meals were all prepared by Dad at home.

Why is it that people with the same fate have different lives?

Don't compare us to them; we're simply not on the same path.

Master Zhao

The Prefect requests that you come to the government office immediately.

Find me

That's right

Did Xiaoyu send a message from Beijing?

It's probably about rice-fish farming and rice transplanting.

The reward has finally arrived!

Wife, hurry up and tidy up my clothes.

I'm going to collect the reward.

The student has seen the adults

Haha, no need for formalities!

The adults are in such a good mood today.

Great news! The best news ever!

It concerns me

Haha, of course it's related.

You raise fish in your rice paddies

There is also the rice transplanting method.

It has already been reported to His Majesty.

What did His Majesty say?

Your Majesty will take the exam this year.

that is

As long as it succeeds, the big tree will grow.

You and I are both heroes.

What about the reward?

There are 500 taels of silver

500 taels

Rice-fish farming and rice transplanting increased yield by 500 taels

What's the rush?

His Majesty hasn't officially tested it yet.

When it really happens

There's more to come.

His Majesty also specifically said

Let me meet your needs

Is your land enough?

To talk about d...

not enough

If only another farm could come near my house.

become

I'll find it for you.

Why is the adult acting like a complete idiot today?

What did you say?

The students said the adults were wise.

How about it?

He was given an official position.

What about the reward?

500 taels

500 taels

That's it.

However, the governor said he would build me another farm.

They won't leave me a wasteland, hahaha.

I don't care about silver

The land is the real thing.

Why did the adults come in person?

Send you something

100 mu

It's near your house.

Is that enough for you to mess around with?

This is enough for me to really go all out this time.

Cultivate this official well

The agricultural work in the prefectural city is all up to you.

Dad, this soil is even more fertile than where we used to live.

Great land, this is really great land

master

Plant the same way you used to.

The rent will be paid according to the original rules of my estate.

real

Why would I lie to you?

Thank you, sir.

Thank you, sir.

Thank you, sir.

100 mu plus my original one

I now have nearly 200 acres of land.

We use regular, good seeds here.

We use the improved version in our own area.

Comparison

The same method

I want to see exactly how much difference there is.

Last year we were still wondering if it would work out.

They've planted such a large area this year.

It looks quite pleasing.

I'll plant 100 mu (approximately 6.7 hectares) to show them.

Daddy doesn't lie.

You reap what you sow.

Big Dad

What do you think of us living in the prefectural city?

It's good.

Yeah, I think so too.

Maybe we shouldn't go back.

Not returning to the village

It's quiet here.

I can copy a lot more books a day without anyone bothering me.

Nobody cares about my money.

I've lived for so many years

This is the first time I've ever felt so peaceful.

But will Mother agree?

She was in the village

I am in the prefectural city

She can even fly over and beat me up.

When you go to the academy

I rented a courtyard nearby.

Hire a housewife to cook and do laundry.

The cost is about the same as living in academy.

And I'm living comfortably.

I don't want to go back either.

I knew it

Then let's just leave.

Pen

have

ink

have

Dry food

Dad, you've watched it three times already.

Can you be careless during an exam?

Once you're inside, don't think about anything else.

Even if you get a bad number

Even if someone nearby dies of thirst

You stay calm too.

Dad, don't worry, wait for my good news.

Dad, this is different from what you taught me!

How is it? Is it finished yet?

The writing is finished

That would solve it.

I mostly don't know...

I used to think I was pretty good at studying.

But you only find out once you go inside.

I'm far from that level.

If you don't go, keep learning.

Take the exam again in two years

Let's go back to the village.

Go back or not, even if you pass the exam, you won't go back.

The needle missed.

Walk

Where to go

Looking for apartments near the academy

The teacher in the prefectural city is better than me.

This time I admit it.

You stay here to study

I will copy books for you.

It's a pity that Dad's land is left empty.

What are you trying to do now?

Rice gourd

Our village used to raise that...

Both farms have rivers

fence off the wasteland

River estuaries can also be used for aquaculture

I'm just idling around anyway

Grain grows in the field

Making money in the river

I don't believe it.

Which piece of land is left idle?

You mentioned the matter of trading southwards

How did it go?

The person has already bought it.

It really started

I rented a courtyard in the west of the city.

They also hired two skilled fighters.

I take them outside the city to train every day

Don't rush to set off

First, toughen up your life.

That's what I think too.

Money can be earned slowly

There is no second chance for human life.

Wait until they train

I then led my men south.

I'll make a list for you then.

Bring whatever you take with you and bring it back with you.

The master is on the first floor again.

Put the fish aside for now

I just want to know one thing.

How much will this acre yield?

It's being weighed now, the results will be out soon.

master

explain

Our area has about 50% more than the neighbor's.

Calculate again

I've counted it three times.

Calculate it a fourth time

Even if Dad calculates it, it won't be less.

It's really done this time.

The new farming method for adults not only increases grain yield

Fish were also produced.

Okay, okay, okay, okay

No need to guess anymore

This method can be used.

I will promote this in my jurisdiction next spring.

Hmm, let's not go find Zhao Dashu yet.

Why

The manager's commendation hasn't arrived yet.

I'm waiting to have fun together.

Daughter, I have a question for you.

Who else under heaven?

If you were a man, then definitely

Dad, don't drift away.

Isn't there no one here?

What's wrong with me praising my daughter?

Cheng, you praise me and I listen

500 taels is just the beginning.

This time, the Emperor saw the harvest with his own eyes.

I'd like to see

What will the next imperial edict give us?

By the mandate of Heaven

The Emperor decreed

Zhao's Great Art

Offer good advice on farming

Benefiting all people

Meritorious service to the nation

Granted the position of agricultural advisor

Rank equivalent to the seventh grade

Annual salary of one hundred taels

Another reward of one thousand taels of silver and one hundred bolts of silk.

father

This humble subject thanks Your Majesty for your great favor.

Congratulations, Consultant Zhao!

Wow, he really became an official!

Rank 7

An official has come from our family.

I, Zhao Dashu, am now Lord Zhao.

It can be considered

Returning to the village to open an ancestral hall

I want my ancestors to know.

Returning to the village, not going back, the weather is still cold.

I'm not going to cause trouble for my wife and kids.

Come and pay respects to Lord Zhao

drink

My dear wife, you are so good to me.

Shut up

Hahaha

You were the first person in Uncle Zhao's family to become an official!

sharp

I said it long ago.

Farming can also lead to great success.

The master drinks

Haha, my grandson respects.

I must drink

master

What's up?

Someone outside is looking for me.

Who is it?

She said she was your sister-in-law

My sister-in-law doesn't stay in the village.

What are you doing in the prefectural city?

Third brother, I've finally found you!

Third son

I've finally found you!

I didn't lose my sister-in-law.

Your older brother is missing.

What

Come to the prefectural city with you after the New Year.

The exams were over long ago.

My son failed the imperial examination.

The man also doesn't go home.

Not a single penny of bet money will be sent.

Three letters, none replied.

Big brother, did you get hooked up with some little vixen?

He dares me to find him

I'll cripple him first.

But you don't even know where he lives, how am I supposed to find him?

academy

He said he rented a house near the academy.

How many academies can there be in the prefectural city?

Ask one by one

How many people would we need to send?

Third brother, this is my first time in Fucheng.

Completely in the dark

You won't help me

Who else can I turn to?

I also sent someone to look for Chengming.

By the way, which guesthouse are you staying at?

No guesthouse

Where do you live?

I think your house is quite big.

Third brother, you guys usually eat very well.

Today I celebrate becoming an official.

you

You've become an official.

My man has vanished without a trace.

Sister-in-law eats first

Looking for someone

We'll talk about it tomorrow.

It's best if he's alright.

If he really lived a simple life in the prefectural city

They went to each academy separately to inquire.

Looking for Zhao's eldest nephew who failed the imperial examination at the county level.

Why

Father has a name

Oh, I'm asking about the eldest son of the Zhao family.

Zhao Dawen, where the hell have you been?

Achoo!

The master has caught a cold.

I don't know either

Put on a coat.

become

Where is my man?

Mother, have a couple of bites.

You haven't eaten much for two days.

Eat shit! Your dad and your older brother haven't been home for six months.

No letter, no money sent

Your sister-in-law is pregnant.

They didn't even bother to ask if the baby was born.

Don't let me find that bastard.

If I find him, I'll make sure he never leaves the village again in his lifetime.

Still no

There is none.

I've had people ask around all the academies in the prefectural city.

My older brother and nephew have vanished into thin air.

Xiaoyu, do you think your uncle won't offend anyone?

He was probably buried in the palace.

Don't scare people, you're the one in charge.

Dad, can't you think of something better?

Where is that person?

Where did you find them?

In the city

Then go to the outskirts of the city to look.

suburbs

Have you forgotten what kind of person your uncle is?

Stingy city, expensive rent

He couldn't bear to part with it.

Suburban academies are not bad either.

The house can be much cheaper

Yes, butler.

Take people to the vicinity of the academy in the suburbs to search

The master has been found.

Where

Near the suburban academy

The father and son rented a small courtyard.

lead the way

Mom, I'm going too.

Mother, let's go too.

What are we going to do?

We're family.

Don't worry about your uncle

Let's go join the fun!

Quickly loosen the bones and go out

Who knocked on the door and broke it? No need to pay for it!

Who are you?

Why are you kicking our door?

This is your home.

I live here

If it's not my house, then it's your house.

Let me ask you a question.

Zhao Dawen lives here

Da Wen, you live here.

Who are you?

His relatives in the village

You just said Zhao Dawen lives here.

Yes, Da Wen lives here.

What's your relationship with him?

Who are you?

Hey, why are you just barging in?

This is my home

What exactly are you doing, Mrs. Chen?

Aunt Chen, come out quickly!

What happened? What happened?

Father, there are still old women in this house.

My older brother is living a much more comfortable life than I am.

That's so good!

I'm waiting for my man in the village.

He lived in the prefectural city.

What's all the noise about? Who came to my house?

What brings you here?

Big brother, we've been looking for you everywhere!

How did you find this place?

Ask around

So he's the head of the household's younger brother.

I don't know you.

What just happened

Don't take it to heart.

Aunt Chen quickly boiled water.

It's cold outside, let's come inside and have some tea.

Zhao Dawen

Wife, let me explain.

Explaining that I take care of my family at home

You keep women in the prefectural city

Mother, don't get too close.

My uncle is really going to get beaten this time.

Wife, let me explain.

Explain your mother

ah

Stop! Why are you hitting my man?

Your man

Hmph, when did my man become your man?

A shameless

A person who is not human

I lived frugally in the village

You two became husband and wife in the prefectural city.

Third brother, save me!

Stop her quickly!

Don't call me

Why didn't you think of me when you did this despicable thing?

Mother, give me back a little more.

Will something really happen?

Auntie knew what was going on.

Wife, don't be impulsive.

It could really kill someone.

Now you know you're afraid of death.

I'm asking you, am I dead or have I been divorced?

None

Then what gives you the right to keep a mistress outside the marriage?

I just felt sorry for her.

I made you pitiful

ah

My goodness!

That's really ruthless.

doctor

Head of household

Weren't you quite capable just now?

How are you, the head of the household?

Am I useless?

Go quickly and get a doctor.

This time, something really serious has happened.

Doctor, am I alright?

The stick wasn't hit squarely.

It should be fine after resting for a while.

My mother is safe!

Head of household

It's okay, I'm still a man.

Hands also need rest

How can I make money by copying books?

No major harm done

Just take good care of it.

Not waste

Did not cripple the eldest sister-in-law

Your stick was a little off-center.

Uncle Zhao

Dad, shut up.

It's good that it's not useless.

I'll deal with him slowly later.

Third Aunt

Your father is keeping a mistress.

You live here every day, don't you know?

You know I asked you

Did you already know?

I know

Brother, you really know?

What can I do?

Father said Mother wasn't around.

No one serves you

Xiao Cui was the one he rescued.

He insisted on repaying him with his body.

Oh, and now you're even making up a life-saving favor?

My dad is my dad

What is he going to do?

As a son, can I control him?

So these six months

You know your wife is pregnant

I know I'm waiting for you at home.

I also know your father is keeping women here.

You didn't send me a single word.

I finally understand today.

Men are unreliable

The same goes for the sons you raised.

Everyone come back to the village with me

Mother, I still need to study.

Then you stay.

From now on, you'll have to earn your own tuition, food, and lodging.

Mom, how do I earn money?

I didn't know you could help your father keep an affair with a mistress behind my back.

I thought you were really capable.

Mother, I was wrong

Don't, I can't accept it.

Since you dislike me so much

How about we just call it quits?

never mind

Yeah, Xiao Cui and I are doing pretty well.

ah

You want to dump me?

I've shared meager meals with you for decades.

I gave birth to the child, and I will support the family.

Now you have a young one.

They just want me to get out.

Crazy woman, let go

You'll never get a chance in this lifetime.

Please, sister, don't kick me out.

Besides being the head of the household

I really have nowhere to go.

Don't touch her.

She had no relatives or friends.

You chased her out.

It's forcing her to die.

She pities me, not me.

Mother Xiao Cui takes good care of Father

She's already her father's woman.

Get out and say one more thing for her

I'm cutting ties with you right now.

Two choices

You can go on your own, or I'll sell you to a brothel.

Men are unreliable

I can't control my son

become

From now on, I will live for myself.

What if my husband really doesn't take me with him tomorrow?

Don't worry, I won't let him sell you.

If I can't take you with me tomorrow

You can go by yourself.

master

Should I really leave?

If I don't leave, that crazy woman will sell me into prostitution.

Take them all

Give me all of them

I'll give you everything and leave you nothing.

He'll definitely search me tomorrow morning.

I'd rather you get a good deal.

Don't give it to that shrew either.

Thank you, sir.

Take the books with you too

These are all valuable.

brush, ink, paper, and inkstone

Take it all

master

You are so good to me.

Rent a small courtyard in the county town first

I'll find a way to see you after I get back to the village.

I'll wait for you, sir.

Xiao Cui

Shh, I'm going first, Aunt Chen.

What are you doing?

Aunt Chen, I don't want to die yet.

Head of household

Go to the county town and wait for me.

You must take good care of the master.

I will definitely come find you.

I'm waiting for you

It's just wishful thinking on our part.

The money is all in my hands.

I'm not coming back to die.

He left the city and never came back.

Where is the silver?

What kind of silver

Stop pretending to be stupid.

Where is the family's money?

No, no

Do you think I'm blind?

Crazy woman, I'm injured like this.

What else do you want?

What do I want?

I want my money

daughter

What's all this fuss about so early in the morning?

Ask your fathers.

Let's see how long he can keep fooling you.

father

Okay, since you won't say anything...

I'll find it myself.

Mother, don't look anymore.

Did you remember it wrong?

Several dozen taels of silver

I might remember it wrong.

Even these are missing.

What exactly did you do selling books?

I've spent it all.

Several dozen taels of silver

You said you'd spend it all, so you spent it all.

Dad, that's all the money our family has!

Hmph, you won't tell me.

I'm going to turn this house upside down today.

elder brother and sister-in-law

Get up so early!

I'm afraid I'll miss out.

Brother, what are you doing?

The door wasn't closed last night.

I turned it off myself.

Where did Xiao Cui go?

Yeah, why hasn't the young lady come out yet?

He's definitely hiding in the kitchen.

Zhao Dawen, come in and take a look.

Did a thief break into the house?

Nothing was left behind.

They've run away.

They still moved away.

He didn't leave.

He had been prepared to do this for a long time.

Wang, put the stick down first.

Let's talk things out.

Speak properly

My money is gone.

Things in the house are gone

Even the people ran away

How am I supposed to talk to you properly?

I really don't know

I don't know why she, a woman, left overnight with her belongings.

Who left the kitchen?

Who supported her when she left?

Brother, you'd better think carefully before you answer.

This isn't something that can be easily dismissed with a simple "I don't know."

explain

I

Where are the people and the money?

Did you let him go?

It's not that I didn't have it.

Still stubborn to this day

Uncle, do you know what Aunt hates the most?

It's not that the money is gone.

Everyone was kept in the dark.

Only you know the truth.

I'm asking you one last time.

Where did Xiao Cui go?

Did you give her the silver?

I

If you don't say it today

I'll show you what happens when you lie to me.

yes

What did you say

I was the one who told him to leave.

I said I let him go.

I gave him the silver too.

You give him the silver.

Zhao Dawen's money is our family's lifeline.

You've given up this family for him.

The money was earned by me.

I can give it to whomever I want.

good

Then you wait.

I want to see who takes it.

Your wife who owns all your possessions

Will he come back to find you?

Of course she will

Xiao Cui is different from the previous one.

She is truly sincere towards me.

Uncle

What do young girls want from you?

You're old

Or maybe it's because you have that old-fashioned smell.

you

Leave this home

daughter

I still have to study.

I didn't stop you.

From today onwards

The money you spend on your studies

I won't give you a single penny.

Mother, you're ruining my life.

I ruined you, yet I've supported you for so many years.

Is this how you repay me?

Take it or leave it

Father, how could you give all the money to my stepmother?

snort

If I don't give it to her, am I supposed to let your mother snatch it?

But she had already run away.

She didn't run away, she's avoiding your mother.

I told her where I lived in the county town.

Humming in a while

He will come to me.

I will live in the county town then.

He lives in the county town

Your mother can live however she wants in the village.

Mother, have a little bit

Your father was like that.

I knew it all along.

What I really can't understand is your older brother.

I paid for his education.

Find him a wife

His wife is pregnant.

He hasn't written a single letter in six months.

He even helped his father keep it from me.

After returning home, the family will separate.

You should stop supporting your older brother.

My own money

Take good care of your wife and children

Mother, what about you?

Mother will live for herself from now on.

Daughter, what do you mean after we leave?

Can they fight again?

father

You just haven't had enough of the show.

How could that be?

I'm just concerned about how their family will manage in the future.

If you really care

You won't be laughing all the way back.

I was happy for them.

What's there to be happy about?

I'm glad they finally know what it is.

The family must not be separated.

I'd like to know...

That Xiao Cui will really go back to find Zhao Dawen.

No.

So sure

young

With money, you can run around on your own.

Why should she go back?

Go back and serve an older person

A man older than his father

I'll go back and see him after he's been beaten.

I'll stay with him while he recovers.

This girl doesn't hold back at all when she speaks.

But that's the truth.

Then your uncle this time...

It was truly a case of losing both wife and army.

The money is gone

The person is gone, and even those who have been with him for half his life are gone.

My aunt was also heartbroken.

Dad, how many times have you looked at this along the way?

There was no one behind.

Xiao Cui is a woman

I wonder where she is now.

Dad, you're already like this.

I'm still thinking about her

What do you know?

She is different from others.

Mom, go to sleep for a while.

I used to always think about my family being together when I couldn't sleep.

It's okay to be a little bitter and tired.

Over the years, I've worried about this family.

Worrying about the child, worrying about him

Thinking about it now...

I may have wronged everyone, but I haven't wronged them.

I'm the only one who's wronged myself.

Mother and Father

You're finally back!

Clean up the room next door.

Who will live with Mother?

Starting today

I sleep in a separate room from him.

Whoever wants to divide it can divide it.

This beast

It hasn't changed at all over the years.

While eating what's in the bowl, one is still eyeing what's in the pot.

And your eldest son

My own father did this kind of thing

He even helped cover it up.

Where did all that studying go?

Uncle

I don't want to teach anymore.

Men can't be controlled

Even sons can't be controlled

I've spent my whole life thinking about others.

Now I want to think about myself for once.

So what do you want to do?

Separation

Uncle

I don't want to live like this in this family anymore.

Have you really thought this through?

Once a family is divided, there's no going back.

I thought about it the whole way.

My husband doesn't treat me like his wife.

My son doesn't treat me like his mother either.

What am I still doing here?

Your eldest son is your most beloved son.

It's because it hurts the most

Therefore, this knife pierced the deepest point.

Uncle, please help me divide the family property.

become

My name is Village Chief

If the matriarch really wants to separate the household...

The clan chief really arrived a moment later.

We'll agree.

But my older brother might have a bright future.

What a load of crap!

Even the scholar failed the imperial examination.

He still expects our family to continue supporting him for more than ten years.

I don't want to be like my second and third uncles.

Working hard your whole life to support others

Mother has silver

Be nicer to your mother from now on

We earn our own money

Raising a child by yourself

I'll listen to you.

Uncle Village Chief

Why are you here?

Separation

I don't distinguish between different households, I'm in charge of this family.

She's a woman

Break up as soon as you say it

Mom, can you please stop making a fuss?

The events in the prefectural city are all in the past.

They have to break up the family.

Are we going to make a fool of ourselves in front of the whole village?

I no

Shut up!

Your father kept a concubine in the prefectural city.

You helped keep it a secret from your own mother.

She still has the nerve to say she's making a scene?

Uncle, this is my family matter.

housework

If you were my son

I would have broken your legs long ago.

Today's Home

It's settled.

ier1 I have a question

Does the big tree know?

Now is the time to watch the show. ier2 niang

A moment of folly on the part of the head of the household

But the family can't be divided.

He'll be successful in the future.

We still need to make you happy.

Now that we've separated, he's successful and can't be filial to me anymore.

Or is it that we don't eat from the same pot?

He no longer recognizes me as his mother.

Even if my parents find a few more...

That was also a concubine.

Your true wife will always be you.

I don't want to see you

Shut up!

So many years of studying

The whole thing went into the dog's belly.

I'll listen to my mother.

Second brother, you also want a share?

point

Having a separate mother means less worry for me.

You should still be filial to your parents in the future.

That's what a son should be like.

Did you hear that? That's human language!

The house was divided between the two sons.

One and a half mu of land per family

The silver was divided into three parts.

A boss

A second child

A copy of us

3 teams each

You two old folks have 4 branches

I need two pots

Why?

I've cooked my whole life

Do you have a problem with taking two pots?

No

The pig was slaughtered in two days.

The money from the sale will be divided again.

Starting after the New Year

Each of the three families lives their own life.

Uncle, I'll live with the eldest brother.

Me and the boss

I don't follow the Wang family.

Look at me

Face pain

He did all of them.

Live with him again

I'll get beaten to death by him sooner or later.

Don't worry, you still have to earn money to support your family.

He won't kill him.

What

You will live with Wang from now on.

I don't want to

Hmph, you have to have it even if you don't want it.

She's watching over you.

Only then did I feel relieved.

Oh

What are you trying to do now?

Copying Chapter 30 of Today's Book Before Dark

Why didn't you let me copy it to death?

If you don't die from copying, you'll just go hungry for one meal.

Wang, don't go too far.

I went too far.
