After her husband died, her parents came to force her to remarry

Chapter 145 Mother discovered that the money in the house was gone...

After dinner, Jiang Xiaohe and Wang Qiuxia took the mushrooms to the woodshed, then separated each mushroom, picked them into small pieces, and placed them on the kang.

"We can make the rest into dry goods so we can sell them later."

"Some people still eat these dried mushrooms."

Jiang Xiaohe smiled and said, "Of course, you can just soak the dried mushrooms in water and use them to stew chicken or stir-fry. It's fine!"

Wang Qiuxia nodded: "Why didn't I think of this before? There are a lot of wild mushrooms in the mountains this summer. If they are dried, they can also be a dish in winter."

At noon, Zhang Fu came back, driving a ox cart, and he really showed off in front of the villagers.

Many people looked at him with envy: "Your family is really prosperous now, you even bought a bullock cart. Next time I go to town, I will ride in your bullock cart. You can't charge me for it."

When Mr. Li in the crowd heard this, he felt somewhat uncomfortable.

However, Zhang Fu is a man who knows how to get things done, and he cannot cut off other people's financial resources.

"I bought this ox cart for my daughter-in-law to use for business. If you want to ride in an ox cart, you still have to find Brother Li in our village!"

After hearing this, Uncle Li's complexion looked much better. Zhang Fu did not stay any longer and drove the ox cart home.

Wang Qiuxia came out holding Zhang Chuan and said, "Oh, this cow looks really strong."

"That's right. Let me tell you, if the seller wasn't in urgent need of money, we wouldn't have gotten such a good bargain."

Zhang Chuan looked at the cow and felt a little scared. Zhang Fu carried him and sat on the cow's back. The boy suddenly thought it was fun and didn't want to get off even though it was almost time for dinner.

Zhang Fu wanted to carry him to eat, but he got anxious and shouted, "Grandpa..." and then pointed at the cow.

But this call of "grandpa" made Zhang Fule very happy.

"Chuan'er, shout again!" Zhang Fu's eyes were a little red.

Zhang Chuan didn't shout, but pointed at the cow, meaning that he still wanted to sit on it.

But when he turned around, he saw that Zhang Fu's eyes were red. He felt uncomfortable because they were family members. He raised his hand to wipe Zhang Fu's tears and shouted again: Grandpa.

Zhang Fu was deeply moved and shouted, "Old woman, old woman, Chuan'er called me grandpa." He was so happy.

After carrying the baby to the kitchen, Wang Qiuxia wiped her hands on her apron and was about to carry Zhang Chuan over: "Did he really call me grandpa?"

Zhang Fu nodded.

Ever since Zhang Chuan learned to call "Mom", he has been calling "Mom" all day long. No matter how we teach him other things, he won't say a word. Today, he rarely called "Grandpa".

Wang Qiuxia looked at Zhang Chuan: "Chuan'er, call me grandma!"

Zhang Chuan grabbed a strand of hair that fell from her ear and called out softly, "Nanny...Nanny."

Although Wang Qiuxia's face was covered with saliva, she was happy.

I had the same reaction as Zhang Fu, feeling happy and touched.

When Jiang Xiaohe came in with firewood, she saw this scene and was slightly startled: "What happened to you?"

Wang Qiuxia immediately shared the joy with her.

As soon as Zhang Chuan saw Jiang Xiaohe, he started calling her "Mom, Mom".

Jiang Xiaohe tapped his nose and said, "Our Chuan'er finally knows how to call grandpa and grandma. Look how happy they are."

As he said this, he carried Zhang Chuan over.

Wang Qiuxia turned around and hurried to cook.

Once Zhang Chuan opened his mouth, he kept calling grandpa and grandma for the whole afternoon. Whenever the two old people heard him calling, they would immediately respond to him, and the little baby would call even louder.

So, after dinner, Jiang Xiaohe went back to the house to boil water for a bath. Wang Qiuxia was busy tidying up the yard. She put him on the mat under the eaves to play by himself. She didn't hear him calling for grandma, but he actually stood up by himself with the help of the wall and shouted at Wang Qiuxia.

Wang Qiuxia turned around and immediately responded, and hurried towards him: "Ouch, my little ancestor, don't let me fall."

Zhang Chuan actually let go of her hand and walked towards her.

This frightened Wang Qiuxia to death, but she immediately reacted: "Boss, boss, Chuan'er can walk now!"

Zhang Fu was feeding the cows in the backyard. When he heard her voice, he threw the grass to the cows and ran in from the backyard.

It was getting dark, and I didn’t see much: “Will he really leave?”

Wang Qiuxia nodded: "I was just cleaning the yard and didn't notice him calling me, so he walked towards me."

Zhang Fu was happy: "Pull him against the wall and let him walk again."

Sure enough, Zhang Chuan was walking towards them again.

"See, I didn't lie to you."

When Jiang Xiaohe heard Wang Qiuxia's call, she quickly packed up and came out, just in time to see this scene. You can tell I was filled with emotion.

"I can really walk."

Wang Qiuxia smiled and nodded: "That's right!"

Zhang Chuan learned to walk, which was like a new world for him. At night, Jiang Xiaohe would carry him back to the room to sleep. The little guy would walk around on the bed, and Jiang Xiaohe was really afraid of dropping him.

Fortunately, the kid has limited energy and falls asleep when he gets tired of playing.

Wang Hong arrived in the middle of the night. Wang Qiuxia wrapped herself in clothes and went to open the door for him: "Why are you so late?"

Wang Hong blew on her hands and said, "I was delayed on the way."

Wang Qiuxia heard something was wrong.

Took him to the kitchen and heated up his dinner.

Wang Hong originally said that it was not necessary, as it would be morning soon.

"How can you sleep well if you haven't eaten? How can you get up tomorrow if you don't sleep well?"

Wang Hong sat in front of the stove and made a fire, and only then did she warm herself up.

"Tell me the truth, is there something wrong at home?"

Wang Hong didn't say anything.

"There are no outsiders here, so what can't you say?"

Wang Hong bit her lip and said, "My aunt came back a few days ago."

"Your aunt? What happened?"

Wang Hong nodded.

"My eldest aunt hasn't been home for many years. When she came back, my parents and grandparents were very happy. My parents were also very happy. They bought her delicious food and drinks to nourish her body. However, she stayed at home for two days. Yesterday, my eldest uncle also came to visit."

Hearing this, Wang Qiuxia frowned slightly.

"and then?"

"My grandparents thought that my aunt and uncle had had a quarrel and ran back in anger. But since my uncle had found our home, he gave my aunt a way out and persuaded her to go back. My aunt and uncle left early this morning, and my grandparents were quite relieved. But not long after they left, my mother discovered that the silver in the house was missing." Wang Hong was a little angry when she said this.

What! Wang Qiuxia tightened her grip on the spoon and finally asked, "Did your aunt and her husband take it?"

Wang Hong nodded: "That silver was earned by my cousin's wife, mother, and older sister. Some of it was spent these days, but it adds up to nearly thirty taels. There was also the one or two taels I earned as a helper. They stole it all and didn't leave a single cent for the family."

"My parents were extremely anxious, but they didn't dare to tell my grandparents. In the end, my parents and I went after my aunt and her family, hoping to get the money back, so we were delayed for some time."
