At the beginning, because of Jiang Xuehe's help, the house built by He Dongsheng was not too bad, at least it was more than enough for their family of three to live. Now that He Dongsheng has paid back all the money, the layout of this house is not as simple as it was at the beginning. However, Jiang Xuehe thinks that this house can be made bigger, and now the family of three is quite spacious, but Jiang Yingchun and He Dongsheng are still young, and there will always be children in the future.

Jiang Yingchun was very happy to see her coming: "You are such a busy person and have time to come and see me?" ”

Jiang Xuehe said with a smile: "Now that the business of several shops is stable, I naturally have the time to go out for a walk." Is it okay for the second sister to come in? ”

"Thanks to you, life is getting better and better now." Jiang Yingchun said with a smile, "My little sisters all want to meet you, saying that if it weren't for your relationship, they wouldn't be able to make so much money." ”

Jiang Xuehe said with a smile: "I don't dare to be, I just came up with an idea to provide a shop, and the rest is the craftsmanship money earned by the sisters themselves." And I went to see it two days ago, and the shop can make so much money now thanks to the second sister. So I brought some snacks and silk flowers over, and I wanted to thank my second sister. ”

"How does this work? I was supposed to thank you again, but you brought me a gift first. Jiang Yingchun was very embarrassed, "What's more, I seem to have caused you a mess recently, and I don't have the face to take these things at all." ”

"Then I'll be a little butterfly for me." Jiang Xuehe put down the things and asked, "What's wrong, why is it so serious?" ”

Jiang Yingchun sighed: "You trusted me before you let me do it, but I don't know people clearly, and a few of the people who came to help before were dug up to other shops." Now that shop is competing with yours for business! And that shop is still my second sister-in-law's shop. ”

Jiang Xuehe smiled after hearing this: "What's the big deal? As long as someone does such a thing first, someone will definitely imitate it later. Those who are unreliable will not cooperate in the future, as long as they don't know in advance what you are doing, and everyone is competing in the open, and there is nothing wrong with that. ”

Jiang Yingchun felt that Jiang Xuehe's words also made sense, so he nodded and said, "Then I will observe the rest carefully, and there will never be such a situation again." Or another contract? ”

"It doesn't have to be like this, our shop is just helping everyone sell on behalf of us. Therefore, even if it is the same style, it is okay to sell it in two stores, but try to avoid the same. Jiang Xuehe thought about it and said with a smile, "Speaking of which, everyone's clothes are made according to the material, right?" Then I'll ask the store to buy a batch of freshly patterned fabrics. In addition, the second sister can also make silk flowers, the store business is good, and some people should like the good-looking and cheaper silk flowers. However, the craft of this silk flower cannot be easily taught to others, so you should be cautious. ”

Jiang Yingchun nodded hurriedly: "I understand." ”

Jiang Xuehe looked at her expression and said with a smile: "Second sister doesn't need to be so serious, you and I are sisters, but don't be angry." ”

"Of course not." Jiang Yingchun thought to herself, although Jiang Xuehe was not her own sister, she was no different from her own sister.

"That's good, by the way, what about the little butterfly?" Jiang Xuehe looked around and didn't see anyone after a week, "Did you go out to play?" ”

Jiang Yingchun smiled: "No, I went to study." ”

"Studying?" Jiang Xuehe was surprised, "Is there still a school in the village for girls to study?" ”

"It's not a school, the head of Jiangjia Village has an eldest daughter named Xiyue, do you remember? Some time ago, she came back from a divorce and had nothing to do at home, so she taught girls to read. However, there are not many children who have been sent over, firstly, because they feel that she has a bad reputation when she comes back, and she is afraid that her children will be brought to a bad reputation. The second is that I feel that girls don't need to read and learn words, and it's useless to learn, so it's better to do more work at home. But I learned it from my second aunt when I was a child, so I naturally know the benefits of reading and writing. Now I'm busy making clothes and don't have time to teach her, and it just so happens that Xiyue used to have a good relationship with me, so I sent the child over. ”

Jiang Xuehe also remembered Jiang Xiyue, calculating the time, Jiang Xiyue was about twenty-four years old, and she got married eight years ago, during which she only occasionally went back to Jiangjia Village a few times, and Jiang Xuehe didn't like to go out, so she hadn't seen her for eight years. And Jiang Xiyue was eight years older than her, so she couldn't play together, she only remembered that it was a very gentle big sister.

The village chief has a younger brother who was admitted to Xiucai, and later taught in the town, and has always been honored as Mr. Jiang. Most of the children of the village chief's family have learned a few words from his younger brother, and some children of the same clan have also learned from him. At that time, the most talented of the children of the same clan seemed to be Jiang Xiyue, and Mr. Jiang often regretted that his niece was not a boy. Mr. Jiang has a good academic background, and now he is teaching at Zhiwei Academy, since he said so, Jiang Xiyue should also be very good.

"But why did she get along?" Jiang Xuehe said strangely.

In her opinion, Jiang Xiyue can read and write, she looks good, and the village chief's family is also well-off, no matter how you look at it, she is a rare good daughter-in-law.

Jiang Yingchun sighed and said: "It is said that she has only given birth to a daughter in the past eight years since she got married, and the Zhang family has been passed down for three generations, I am afraid that she will not be able to give birth to another son, so I want to change another daughter-in-law." ”

Jiang Xuehe couldn't help frowning: "Sister Xiyue is still young, so the surname Zhang is not big, right?" Why be in such a hurry? ”

They are all children of the same clan, and their ancestors are all blood relatives, so Jiang Xuehe felt that Jiang Xiyue was bullied by people from other villages, and she was not very comfortable.

"It was said that it was for the heirs, but in fact, the one surnamed Zhang was admitted to the Juren. Originally, Xiyue's appearance was outstanding in Shili and Eight Villages, even if she was a talented person, she could marry it! At that time, the surname Zhang was a child, and he felt that if he married Xiyue, he would be able to catch up with Mr. Jiang, so he was naturally very happy. Over the years, he has indeed received a lot of guidance from Mr. Jiang, but after being admitted to the lifting of people, he feels that he is now half an official, and he needs to be an official lady to be worthy of it! In addition, Xiyue has no children under his knees, and his excuse is also very smooth to find. ”

Jiang Xuehe raised her eyebrows: "Then their family has really picked the daughter of the official family now?" ”

"How can it be so fast? Besides, there are no official daughters in our county. But I heard that the surname Zhang is going to Fuxue, probably trying to find one in Fucheng, right? Speaking of this, Jiang Yingchun sneered again, "You don't know, that Zhang family is actually strangely poor, and Xiyue has been able to live smoothly all these years. After all, he is about to leave for Fucheng, and he will definitely have to spend money everywhere at that time. Fortunately, the village chief's family has five sons, so he can bring Xiyue back safely. ”

Jiang Xuehe didn't expect that the surname Zhang would be so shameless, and he could still be admitted to the lifting of people with this virtue? It's just that he talks about being childless, even if he takes out his affairs and publicizes it, I'm afraid that he can easily save his reputation. It's a pity that Jiang Xiyue and Li went home, and I don't know how many people will be pointing at me.

The village chief's family gave birth to five sons and got this daughter, and this daughter was well-behaved and intelligent since childhood, so of course the village chief was distressed. The five sons of the village chief's family also feel sorry for their sister and have no opinion on their sister living at home. However, the parents and brothers have no opinion, which does not mean that the five sisters-in-law will also have no opinion. Even if my sister-in-law doesn't have an opinion, there must be a lot of people in the village who want to gossip. Jiang Xiyue dared to teach the village girls to read at this pass, she must not be afraid of gossip, but Jiang Xuehe felt that she didn't need to suffer this kind of criticism, which was completely unwarranted for her. It's a pity that most people in the village have too few things to entertain, and they can gossip for days when something happens to other people's families.

"I see that you still care about her, it just so happens that I am going to pick up the little butterfly back in a while, why don't you go over and have a look together?" Jiang Yingchun said with a smile.

Jiang Xuehe nodded hurriedly, to be honest, she was quite curious about Jiang Xiyue.

Jiang Yingchun actually didn't have to go out of his way to pick up the little butterfly, the little butterfly had been taking classes with Jiang Xiyue for more than a month, and Jiangjia Village was not far from Hejia Village, so he could go back and forth by himself. She suddenly had to pick it up because she saw the curiosity in Jiang Xuehe's eyes. Jiang Yingchun has always been this kind of secretly appropriate temperament, although she is strong, she will never take the initiative to ask for credit. Just like she sent Little Butterfly to Jiang Xiyue, it wasn't because she couldn't find time to teach Little Butterfly in person, she just wanted Little Butterfly to accompany Jiang Xiyue more.

That Jiang Xiyue is also a strong girl, she chose such a negative man before she got married, and it is impossible to say that she will not be sad at all when she comes back. But she didn't want to tell anyone about it, and Jiang Yingchun naturally wouldn't force her to say it, but just wanted her children to accompany her more so as to divert her attention.

Jiang Xiyue is now living in the village chief's house, and her room has been kept for her back then. She has a spacious room and a separate small yard with a swing rack in the yard, which shows how favored she was before she got married. There weren't many little girls in the house who knew how to read and write, only four or five. Jiang Xuehe recognized it at a glance, except for the little butterfly, the other children were Jiang Xiyue's nieces.

She couldn't help sighing, sure enough, women have no status in this era, although they are reconciled, although they are men's hearts, Jiang Xiyue's reputation is still not good, everyone avoids it, only the family and Jiang Yingchun dare to hand over the child to her with confidence.

When she looked at Jiang Xiyue's appearance of the child, she only felt that she was very patient and serious, and the side face with her head bowed and smiling was as beautiful as ever. Speaking of which, Jiang Xiyue's state looks okay, but her eyebrows and eyes are tired. But she is five years older than Jiang Yingchun, and her current state is much better than when Jiang Yingchun first came back.

But people are still haggard in the end, even if they smile softly, they still have a feeling of forced laughter, Jiang Xuehe looked at it and felt stunned.
