Chapter 476: Holding Back Anger and Resentment!

handkerchief tightly in her hand, but she held it back.But when she bent down to sit, she caught sight of the crimson nine-phoenix crown atop the Third Princess's head and almost ruined her cover...T...Jia Yin jumped down from the carriage and immediately hugged Mrs. Cui's thigh, "Master Aunt, Master Aunt, I missed you so much! Did Master Aunt not want Funi anymore Wuuu, Funi is so pitiful!"

When Mrs. Cui saw the plump little girl pretending to cry by covering her eyes, not shedding a single tear for ages, she couldn't help but laugh. She quickly bent down and picked her up, showering her with kisses.

"How could that be Auntie loves Funiu the most, if Funiu doesn't come back, Auntie will go to Luoan and find you!"

"Auntie brought you your favorite snacks, sewed a beautiful dress for you, and there's one more good thing. We'll look at it together when night falls and we're hiding in the blankets!"

Jiayin's eyes lit up, and she immediately became happier. She hugged Mrs. Cui's face, transforming into a chubby woodpeckerr bird, using Mrs. Cui's face as a big tree and kissing her face several times.

Mrs. Cui smiled, her face blooming like a flower. She playfully teased the plump girl, "Fu Niao went to Lu'an, didn't she eat a lot of good things Holding her up, she seems heavier than last time! If this continues, you'll have to be called Fatty instead!"

Jia Yin hid her little face in Cui's bun, like a frightened quail.

She didn't hear, she didn't hear, she heard nothing at all.

She didn't gain weight, she didn't gain any weight at all!

Lao Li and Tao Hongying watched the two laugh and play, also laughing along with them.

Tao Hongying said, "This girl spends all day eating and sleeping, she's more pampered than a pig. If she doesn't get fat, who will"

Li Laotai immediately corrected her granddaughter, "Nonsense! Our Funiang is a good child. She helped a lot in Lu'an this time. Don't look at our Funiang having short arms and legs, but she's smart! She gave her third uncle many good ideas!"

"Alright, alright, Mother is right, Fu Niuer can do no wrong!" Tao Hongying heard this and couldn't help but chuckle. She quickly beckoned everyone inside.

Otherwise, the mother-in-law is truly capable of standing at the door and praising her granddaughter from head to toe.

Watercloud had been staying at home for so many days, longing for her masters' return.

At this moment, she was as happy as a little bee, flitting about. One moment she was pouring tea, the next she was helping to carry luggage.

Li Lao Tai asked a few questions about the household, and upon hearing that everything was well, she drove He Ma Ma, Shui Ling, and Shui Yun away to pack their luggage.

Thus, the two young ladies can chat in secret, and Grandma He can also rest her feet.

Winter Plum heard the noise and came over from next door to chat with Old Mrs. Li and Tao Hongying.

Before he could say a few words, the village head, Uncle Zhao, Liu Biaotou, Liu's wife, and Huiniang, among others, all gathered around.

The village head boomed as soon as he entered, "You're back! You wouldn't think anything of it normally, but suddenly going away like this, the village felt so deserted. It's not lively anywhere except for the valley."

Uncle Zhao also chimed in, "Yeah, even at night it's quiet, but during the day it's even more so. We've all started hoping those mischievous kids cause a little trouble!"

Everyone laughed and quickly made way for the old men, offering them tea and snacks.

Jia Yin took out her favorite mochi cake and gave each of the elderly men a piece.

The old men also gave face, stroking Jiayin's hair and starting to eat.

As a result, they never got another chance to speak.

Sticky teeth!

In order to keep their remaining old teeth, they could only concentrate all their energy on fighting the glutinous rice cake!

After asking about the twins in Hui's family, Old Li also inquired about the chubby boy from Liu's family, the business on the mountainside, the fruit trees on the hilltop, and the melon fields by the riverbank…

In short, there was nothing she didn't keep in mind. After finding out everything, she finally managed to relax her worried heart.

Mrs. Cui took Jia Yin in her arms, removed the silver comb from her head, and re-arranged her fluffy little braids, smiling and saying: "Sister-in-law, last night, your brother sent a message via Wen Hai, saying that Jiarong and Lige had passed the Tong Sheng exam"

"Those two children are amazing! While the entrance exam for young scholars isn't too difficult, it's rare for someone to be accepted on the spot!"

Everyone was delighted to hear this, and the village head even eagerly swallowed the glutinous rice cake in one gulp, choking and stretching his neck, he rasped, "Jia Ren...cough cough, Brother Li...have you achieved fame!"

"That's great! Those two boys are so impressive!" Zhao Shu also applauded with excitement.

The two old brothers sitting beside him, both with legs and no hands, were overjoyed at this moment. They didn't know how happy they were. One person had one hand, and they cooperated to clap their hands. The sound was really crisp!

Everyone couldn't help but laugh, a little bit bittersweet.

Tao Hongying quickly changed the subject and said, "These days, you all have worked hard guarding the new village. My mother kept mentioning it on the road. When evening comes, I'll make some delicious dishes and invite everyone to my house for a meal, so we can be lively and cheerful."

"Well then, for Jiahren and Brother Li alone, we should have a good drink of wedding wine." The village chief readily agreed.

Huiniang and Liushi also nodded. Huiniang said, "We'll go home and make some arrangements, and we'll be over to help in a bit."

As they spoke, the crowd dispersed. The old men hurried off to share the good news with the entire village.

Jia Yin put the sticky rice cakes away, feeling a little remorse for almost causing the old men to become "toothless."

She jumped down and took Dongmei's hand, wanting to go for a walk in the Ye family courtyard.

Tao Hongying thought her daughter was going to check out the small gold vault she had secretly hidden in the Ye family, so she didn't stop her. She just told her to come back early and let her go.

Seeing that there was no one in the house, Li Lao Tai pulled Cui Madam and asked, "Jiner, your complexion isn't good. Tell your aunt, is something troubling you"

"Then Mrs. Cui's eyes turned red, "Aunt...it's nothing, it's just...just that I missed you, so I came back to stay for two days and see you all."

"Old Mrs. Li wouldn't believe that, would she" She scolded her with a pat and urged, "Why are you still being so distant from your aunt! Your aunt has said this countless times, you may not carry the surname Li, but you are one of our Li family."

"We all struggled to survive in the mountains. To your aunt, you, Hongying, and Yuru are all the same! If you have grievances, don't tell others, tell your aunt!"

Mrs. Cui could no longer hold back her tears, she hugged the old lady and wept.

“Aunt, they bullied me… Woooo, I can’t curse them yet, I’m holding it in! I really have nowhere else to go, I could only hide at your place.”

Li Laotai and Tao Hongying looked at each other, both surprised.

They originally thought Mrs. Cui was having a falling out with Mr. Wen, but listening to this, it seemed like she was being bullied by outsiders!

Tao Hongying spoke up, persuading her, "Jinerou sister, you carefully explain what happened. My mother and I are completely confused! You stay in the manor all day, logically speaking, you shouldn't have offended anyone! Is this person of high status Why can't you retort If you're embarrassed to speak up, there's me, I'll retort on your behalf!"

Mrs. Cui was older than Tao Hong, and Tao Hong usually called her "sister" out of respect and closeness.

At this point, Madam Cui felt a little embarrassed.

Where's a sister who's been wronged and wants her little sister to help fight back!

She had a strong personality and was used to it, but when she arrived at the Li family and saw her mother-in-law, Mrs. Li, who was just like her own mother, she couldn't hold back anymore.

She wiped away her tears and explained, "It's Wen Senior Brother's mother and sister-in-law. They've been coming to my estate every day for the past few days, sitting there all day, forcing me..." tea and said. Everyone understood what he meant: the sight of mountains full of fruits and fields overflowing with vegetables was just too overwhelming. 。If refugees came, they would definitely not...
