The Comeback of the Charming Farmer's Wife

Just like boys who want to marry and girls who want to marry off, they both hope for a good mother-in-law. Otherwise, it’s easy for issues to arise.

"The day after tomorrow is New Year’s, are you really not going to celebrate it with us?"

"No, I won’t. Ever since I married Brother An, I haven’t spent a New Year in my own home. This year, I’ll stay here with the children and celebrate."

Thinking about the New Year’s, Yang Chuxia suddenly felt that she and Brother An were quite miserable. Since they were married, they spent more time apart than together, even less than before they were wed, when they could stick together every day. Not to mention the New Year’s festivities—two years in a row they hadn’t managed to spend it together, and the same was true for the August festival before that.

"Then it’s up to you. Just make sure to visit your grandfather on the first day of the New Year," Ms. Wang thought for a moment before adding, "Although it’s customary not to visit the maternal home on the first day of the New Year, our family doesn’t stick to that. Your grandfather’s health is getting worse by the day, and seeing the children more often might cheer him up."

Mu Shaoling had already mentioned that Old Yang didn’t have much time left, and that he was still hanging on thanks to the ginseng.

"Okay, I understand." With the thought of Old Yang surviving on ginseng, she then asked, "Mom, do you still have ginseng at your place? I have two roots here; take them for Grandpa to eat."

"No need, keep yours for later. We still have ginseng at home. Just a few days ago, your dad bought two roots from the county town."

At this point, Ms. Wang let out a sigh, "It seems your grandfather might not make it much longer, he gets winded just walking a few steps, and now he trembles when eating. He’s eating less and less. He’s had such a tough life, hardly any good days at all."

"There’s nothing we can do about it! Thankfully, he has a good son like my dad; otherwise, he wouldn’t even have these last few years of peace."

"That’s true."

Ms. Wang stayed a little while longer, played with her grandson, and then went home.

After Ms. Wang left, Ms. Luo came over, bringing some dishes with her.

Yang Chuxia looked, and it was fish pieces fried by Ms. Luo, along with some pastries made by Ms. Hong.

It seems Ms. Luo had changed quite a bit since experiencing the two incidents of giving birth to a daughter and being divorced. Although she still had her flaws sometimes, she was at least more well-liked than before.

Her relationship with Ms. Hong wasn’t like it used to be either. It was said that they hadn’t been arguing recently; perhaps Ms. Luo had taken to heart what Ms. Wang and the others had said.

"Ai, Xiaxia, what were Dayong’s in-laws doing at your house?" Look at that, Ms. Luo hadn’t changed her gossipy nature.

"How did you know?"

Ms. Luo covered her mouth and laughed, "I saw when they passed by my house. Do you think I wouldn’t notice? Let me tell you, I have nothing to do at home, so I watch everyone who passes by my door."

"..." So you’re really that bored.

But this was something she couldn’t tell Ms. Luo; she had a big mouth and wasn’t one to keep secrets.

"It’s nothing. They were probably visiting Granny’s and stopped by to play while they were at it."

Yet Ms. Luo laughed again, "Tsk, you’re still keeping secrets. As if I don’t know. But relax, even with my big mouth, I won’t tell anyone."

Yang Chuxia fell silent. So you’re aware you have a big mouth, huh? Since that’s the case, are you sure you can keep it to yourself?

But what exactly do you know?

Seeing that Yang Chuxia clearly didn’t believe she knew.

Ms. Luo pouted and said, "Hey, it’s about them wanting to become in-laws with your family, isn’t it?"

You really do know?
