I stayed at Zuo's house for nearly five days, eating, drinking, and sightseeing nearby. Everyone put aside the things at hand and socializing, and took advantage of this new year to get together to enjoy life and keep in touch with each other.

It feels like all the friendship this year is here.

"Old madam, I remember that year I brought my baby to your house for New Year greetings, and I happened to meet my cousin Yingchun and her daughter. Two or three years have passed in a blink of an eye. I wonder how their mother and daughter are doing now?"

"Hey, when it comes to welcoming the Spring Festival, it's hard to say enough. That kid is really miserable!"

Mrs. Zuo couldn't stop laughing when she mentioned what happened to Zuo Yingchun. She was the niece she raised under her knees, raised as both a daughter-in-law and a daughter-in-law.

"The husband-in-law of Yingchun only lasted for half a year and then died. When he left, he left a posthumous son for Yingchun."

"The husband-in-law and his family are all tigers and wolves. As soon as the husband-in-law of Yingchun died, they rushed to chase Yingchun Niang San away. Fortunately, we here had already taken precautions. Jun Mo's friends in Yangzhou also enthusiastically helped and got through the government.

At any rate, Yingchun Niang and the other three were able to keep their due property."

Yang Ruoqing has seen too many things like this. In this world, the law of the jungle is based on the law of the jungle. When the mainstay is dead, there are very few uncles and brothers in the family who can support him. Most of them will rush to grab the meat to eat.

Therefore, in a family, not only men must be strong, but women must not be too weak.

There was no fluctuation in her heart, but her face still showed regret and sympathy.

"Cousin Yingchun's experience is indeed a bit rough. So now that she is alone with a pair of children, should she stay in Yangzhou and continue to manage the industry? Or does she have other plans?" Yang Ruoqing asked again.

Mrs. Zuo said: "The child was only a few months old when my husband left, so he invited Jun Mo and her own parents, brothers and sisters-in-law to come over and help with the business."

"Now that my son is one year old, the business there has gradually stabilized. The eldest daughter is also eight or nine years old and can help her mother take care of her younger brother. The lives of the two of them have gradually stabilized."

Yang Ruoqing nodded lightly, "It seems that cousin Yingchun is still very responsible and has not been crushed. She has survived this wave and will definitely get better and better in the future, earning a family fortune for the children."

Mrs. Zuo said: "It is too difficult for a woman to do business outside with her two children, and it is far away in Yangzhou. We can't help keep an eye on it all the time, for fear that the husband's family will be jealous and attack those businesses."

idea.”

"So what we are saying here is that it is best for Yingchun to deal with the property in Yangzhou and return to Huguang County to buy some fields and shops and so on. A woman's family can steadily collect the rent and raise the two children.

It’s enough to support your son’s education. Why do you have to be so tired alone in Yangzhou? Qing’er, don’t you think so?”

It's really hard for Yang Ruoqing to say this.

Because as far as she is concerned, she is a woman who has gone to the capital to show off and do things, and everything she does is vigorous.

Although she was tired, she was happy and had a sense of worth.

But these situations are different when it comes to Zuo Yingchun, because Zuo Yingchun is a widow and has no support from her husband's family behind her.

And behind me, there is the towering tree of the Protector General.

"Old madam, I understand that you feel sorry for your cousin Yingchun who is having a hard time alone in Yangzhou, but you need to ask her about her own wishes for some things. After all, Yangzhou is a prosperous place, not comparable to the small Huguang County. Children

Growing up, studying there, and having all aspects of knowledge must be different from our small county, so we have to respect cousin Yingchun's own wishes, what do you think?"

Mrs. Zuo pondered for a while and smiled helplessly.

"Young people of this generation all have their own ideas. You are right, let her make her own decision!"

On the seventh day of their stay, Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang planned to say goodbye.

At this time, a visitor came to Zuo Junmo's house.

It was none other than the fish woman and her man whom I met before at the Bada Lake.

The woman cannot speak, but the man is normal.

The couple came over. The man happened to be home in the past two days. He heard from his family that his son almost choked to death. Fortunately, he was reminded by a kind person, so the couple brought fresh fish and shrimp to express their gratitude.

"Brother Xiao Yu, you are too polite. Come on, come in and sit down."

Zuo Junmo, as the host, warmly greeted the simple fishermen couple in front of him.

Yang Ruoqing also smiled and said: "That kind of thing, other people would also remind me that every child is the dearest child of their parents. Brother Xiaoyu, come in and have tea."

Xiaoyu and his wife entered the main room of Zuo's family and saw the yard and the furnishings in the room, which were very restrained.

Especially Zuo Junmo and Luo Fengtang's auras were relatively strong. With the two of them around, Xiao Yu didn't dare to say much.

So the two of them found an excuse to go out, leaving the most friendly person Yang Ruoqing to do the work of entertaining guests.

Because she made up her mind to tear a hole in Xiao Yu's body to find out the truth about Yang Yongxian's fish and shrimp farming...

When Luo Fengtang and Zuo Junmo came back from a long walk outside, Yang Ruoqing had already sent Xiao Yu and his wife away.

"Leaving so soon? I thought you would leave them here for lunch before leaving." Zuo Junmo was quite surprised.

Yang Ruoqing said: "I tried to persuade them to stay, but they were worried about their children and insisted on going back."

These are all excuses. The real reason is that the fishermen couple's low self-esteem makes them unable to have the confidence to eat at the same table with people like Zuo Junmo and Luo Fengtang. They don't know what to say, and they will be embarrassed when the time comes.

Besides, they came here to say thank you, so it would not be good to go back just for a meal.

"Qing'er, how did you and Xiao Yu talk about it?" Luo Fengtang was more concerned about this matter.

Yang Ruoqing smiled at him and blinked: "I am Xiao Yu's son's savior. I also left five hundred coins for their family. Xiao Yu and his wife are very grateful to us now. As soon as I opened my mouth, he

accepted."

"Of course, I couldn't let him take this risk in vain. I asked my cousin how much monthly payment he would give him, and I doubled it."

"Then how much monthly allowance does your cousin give them?" Luo Fengtang asked again.

Yang Ruoqing pulled out a stool and sat down, "Speaking of this, it's a bit interesting. My cousin is picking at his own skin at home, but when he goes out to do business, he is really bold. I would like to give it to fishermen like Xiao Yu and others who raise clams.

There is actually one tael of silver per month!"

"Xiao Yu said that my cousin also hired someone from Qing'an County to train Haidongqing and use Haidongqing to deal with the swans returning from the south. Swans like to eat good clams deep in the lakes, so as to get the belly of the swans.
