k her tears, but it hurt too much, "Wow, wow!"Tao Hongying heard the noise and came out from the kitchen. She ran forward and hugged her daughter. Looking down, she saw that her daughter's upper lip w...The Marquis hugged Jia Yin, rubbed her little head, and replied: "Your second brother just managed to dodge this time. The Ministry of Officials has a deadline for appointments. He must go within a month. Afterward, don't even talk about palace banquets, even the once-a-fortnight grand assembly, you will have to attend as well."

Li Lao'er had a headache and couldn't help but complain, "The world truly has no such thing as a free lunch. Becoming an earl is so troublesome."

Jia Yin secretly stuck out her tongue, always feeling that Er Bo was at Versailles, but there was no evidence.

In her view, this earl's title was akin to the honorary chairman or president of an organization in her past life.

Having a name but no real power, but still needing to show up from time to time. In short, just taking the benefits without putting in any effort...

Uncle Two still found being a Count troublesome, not knowing how many people in the city and outside envied him to the point their eyes turned red!

A lively chatter filled the air as people gathered together, laughing and enjoying themselves. In a side room, Hui'niang held her child close, feeling a warmth in her heart.

She also wanted to go out and talk together, look at the moon, but unfortunately, it was still a few days before the moon appeared, she had to bear with it.

Grandma He sat on the side, waving a drum to amuse the dragon and phoenix twins. Turning her head, she saw Hui's appearance and smiled, "Madam, don't worry, this is how it is to be confined after childbirth, one has to hide like a cat, unable to see the wind."

"Just hold on a little longer, it'll be over soon. In a while, I'll bring you a basin of warm water. You can freshen up with a good wipe and feel better."

"Thank you, grandma."

Hui Niang blushed a little, after all, she was so old and still acting like a child eager to go out and play. It wasn't very becoming of her.

"Grandmother, I've said it before, I'm really not some kind of madam. Just call me Huiniang. These days, thanks to you and Shuicun for helping me, my heart is filled with gratitude. " Huiniang held Grandmother He's hand, "Wait until I've given birth, I'll make a good pair of shoes for you as a thank you gift."

"No, no, madam..." He Mamma quickly waved her hand and after a moment said, "Then I'll change my wording."

Hui Niang laughed and began talking about the chubby boy from Liu's family again.

After she's finished her confinement, she can go visit Auntie Liu.

Master Liu and his wife were overjoyed to have a son in their old age, and they doted on him.

It is said that Jiayi asked Liu Yang to sail south together. The two waved their hands and knew, they didn't care at all, but Lao Li still prepared a meal for Liu Yang!

Fortunately, Liu Yang had a big heart and didn't mind his parents ignoring him. Otherwise, little Liu Er in swaddling clothes would have already been disliked by his older brother!

As the saying goes, holidays are happy times, but life is tough in between.

Mid-Autumn Festival reunion is only for one day. After waking up, life still goes on as usual.

Li Zhensheng and others went back to the restaurant to get busy. The Marquis took Li Lao Si back to the wharf camp and swapped Li Yong in to see his wife and children.

Although Li Laoer had become a count, he still didn't have the awareness of being a nobleman. He didn't bother with the academy anymore and went to the valley every day.

Tao Hongying helps out at a restaurant in the city, and Liu's wife is in confinement. If he doesn't look after the mountains again, trouble will arise easily.

Of course, this Count could no longer enter the valley to chat with guests and offer refreshments.

He just sat in the wooden house, straightening his accounts and looking at the reservation list.

In the morning, Mr. Wen had already entered the city with Li Zhensheng and others.

Mrs. Cui also planned to return to her family's estate in the afternoon, so she coaxed Jiayin to play at this moment.

Li Laotai was tidying things up on one side, discussing the dowry list with her.

After all, the Cui family is a scholarly family and understands the preferences and taboos of literati better than most.

Thinking back to before the year, the old woman was truly feeling a mix of emotions: happiness and amazement at the thought of her grandson bringing home a daughter-in-law.

Time flies so fast, who knows, maybe in a year or two, she'll even be able to hold her great-grandson.

"Tomorrow I'll go to Luo An, and I'll set the date for the betrothal with the Peng family. Our family is getting its first granddaughter-in-law, she knows nothing, so we'll just fumble our way through it," Li Lao Tai said happily.

Mrs. Cui laughed when she heard this and said, "Don't worry about that, sister-in-law. Your grandson has many sons. When you have seven daughters-in-law married in, no one in the world will be more familiar with marriage than you."

Li Laotai also laughed, without waiting to speak, Jia'an, Jiaxi and Mao Ge'er had already run back from outside.

Perhaps in his haste, the little cat tripped over the threshold and fell with a yelp, about to cry but not quite.

Jiale and Jiaxi quickly stepped forward to help their younger brother, guiding him into the house one on each side.

Jiāxǐ shouted, "Grandma, when are we going to Lu'ān It's boring at home. We want to go find Big Brother and Lǐge'er to play."

Old Li didn't hesitate, raising her hand and giving one grandson a smack on the head!

"You're all grown up now, young men of twelve or thirteen! You just play all day long! Quickly go wash the dirt off your bodies and get your hair washed."

Besides, pack up your everyday belongings. Tomorrow, I'll send you to Lo An to study. Once you get to Lo An, if any of you dare to play around, Master will discipline you!

Three little boys huddled together, turned their heads and ran away. In a short while, the bathtub in the ear room was making a racket again.

Obviously, the three mischievous kids went wild while bathing.

The old woman was too lazy to bother with them, out of sight, out of mind. She had to send them to Los Angeles tomorrow!

Mrs. Cui watched this and laughed non-stop.

The bystanders can see clearly; now the old woman dislikes her grandchildren being noisy, but in a few days she will probably miss them and won't be able to eat or sleep.

After lunch, Mrs. Cui went home.

Jia Yin pretended to sleep, but in reality, while Grandma went out, she snuck back into the space and "did hard labor," diligently trying to become a master of simplified and traditional Chinese translation...

Li Laotai didn't know what her granddaughter was plotting again. At this moment, she was pulling Wu Sannvzi and talking about the food stall business.

His three nephews, our family's Jia An, Jia Xi, and Mao Ge'er are going to study in Luan, along with Jia Ren and Li Ge'er, five boys. Since the old shop was a bit cramped before, they bought a new courtyard.

"After this, Yu Ru will stay in the courtyard to take care of the children's food and lodging. There will only be Lao San left on the other side of the bedding, making it difficult to manage. If you two still remember Gou Sheng Er, and don't mind the hard work of the bedding job, why not go to Luo An to help out"

"Your wages will still be calculated based on the village's work points system. Since the shop is doing well, there will be a bonus at the end of the year. We absolutely won't let you lose money..."

Before Old Mrs. could finish speaking, Wu Sannv had her eyes sparkling with excitement. "Auntie, is that true Wonderful!"

They were a couple with only one child, a son named Gou Sheng. They had already narrowly escaped being killed by bandits before; they truly cherished him more than their own eyes.

It's so heartwarming that I can be close to my child and still earn money.

"We're going, we'll definitely go." Wu Sanniang kept nodding, afraid the old woman would change her mind, "I'll pack my things right now. Whatever time Auntie decides to leave, we'll follow."

"Lao Tai Li also laughed, "We'll leave tomorrow. Don't cook breakfast, come to my place for a meal."

By the end of August, the grain in the fields had already been harvested. Looking from afar, it was a patchwork of colors.

The mountains and forests have donned new robes of emerald green and ochre yellow, with a touch of desolation.

But the new city was still bustling with people, and the streets were incredibly lively.

Jiayin thought that Grandma would take her to the restaurant first to see the excitement, but she unexpectedly drove through the city and went straight to Luo'an Town.

Perhaps because it's the Mid-Autumn Festival and students can't go home, their families miss them. Many people come to visit or send food and supplies.

The town was even more lively than usual.

The carriage arrived at the shop's door, and everyone got off. Zhao Yuru greeted them inside. Before they could say a few words, the academy went for lunch.

Jiarren led Li Ge'er, followed by Gou Ren'er, with unusually quick and hurried steps, a face full of joy, heading towards the shop...Huan wasn't feeling well.As a result, Jia Huan's mind and eyes were full of his wife and son, he didn't take this matter to heart at all.As for Wenjuan, ever since she married into the Li family, it's...
