bag of ransom. The women rushed forward and took back their own contributions just as they had put them in. 。The village head called out to Tao Hongying, "Hongying, you've been taking care of Mrs. Cui...Mr. Wen smiled and said, “The Yan family is still alright, but I'm afraid the Wang family regrets the most now. I heard that last night when Old Master Wang returned home, he fell ill. His family is running around looking for a doctor!”

"Good is rewarded with good, evil is rewarded with evil. It's not that it's not repaid, but the time hasn't come yet. This is exactly what I mean by the Wang family!"

"Just let them regret it!"

In a few days, when the master opens the restaurant, they will surely regret it.

Without mentioning the men's laughter and drinking in the main hall, let's just say that in the private room, Old Mrs. Li was genuinely concerned about Liu's wife but couldn't leave her guests due to social obligations. So she called Zhao Yuru and Wu Sannu along with a few others to hurry over to Liu's house.

The village head's family and Liu's family lived next door to each other. Aunt Wu was in poor health and couldn't often visit Huilan, who was recovering from childbirth. During this time, she mostly kept Liu's wife company.

Just then, she went home to get her sewing basket and returned to the Liu family. By that time, Mrs. Liu had given birth, and the child was already lying on the kang crying loudly.

Life is so refreshing, it's astonishing!

Zhang Shenyi was brought over but only took his pulse and did nothing else, he didn't have the opportunity to use any martial arts.

And Liu, the head鏢師, clutching his young son, was so overjoyed that he had gone daft with happiness.

"Haha, I have another son!" He was so delighted that he told everyone this phrase, making people laugh.

Liu Yang stood beside him, rubbing his hands together, wanting to hug his younger brother but too hesitant.

Zhao Yuru and others helped tidy up the house. Wu San's wife stayed behind to help look after the children, simmered chicken soup and boiled eggs for Liu's wife, and the rest went back.

After all, there are still so many guests in the front yard!

Zhao Yuru brought back the news that Liu Biantou had a son, and everyone was overjoyed.

To be precise, this was the first baby born after villagers arrived at Suijin Beach.

Hui Niang and Li Yong were relatively late additions to the group, and they hadn't shared any experiences of overcoming mountains and rivers together.

Only the villagers who have shared hardships together truly understand how hard-earned today's sweetness is.

The village chief happily gulped down the wine in his bowl, laughing heartily, “Good! Our village has now welcomed new additions, truly taking root and settling down. Everyone, work harder and have more babies. Later, we'll send them all to school and find wives for them. Our village will be even more prosperous!”

The villagers all burst into laughter, while the young couple blushed.

Because they have heavy responsibilities on their shoulders!

Grandpa Liu was envious in his heart. Seeing Liu the鏢頭 return, he took off the jade pendant on his waist and handed it to him, “We both share the surname Liu, and five hundred years ago, we were one family. Now that the family has a new addition, as an elder, I would like to give the child a welcoming gift, to bring good fortune.”

Liu Biatou was overjoyed, he performed a grand bow to thank his son, only then did he accept the jade pendant.

At the banquet, the occasion was even more lively because of this joyous event.

Not until the sun set in the west did everyone say their farewells and head home.

The entire Li family gathered at the village entrance to see their guest off. With tables and chairs filling the courtyard, villagers readily lent a hand.

Seeing that her two grandsons were reluctant to leave, Old Mrs. Liu agreed to let them stay for two days, spending the night at Mrs. Cui's house.

The two boys were overjoyed, but Madam Liu was worried. After being advised by Madam Cui a couple of times, she let it go.

After all, Madam Cui will be staying for a couple of days and can keep an eye on the two mischievous boys.

Mr. Peng was half-drunk, and tonight he was going to have a late-night discussion with Mr. Wen by candlelight. The two of them returned together to the small courtyard in the city.

The other three also returned with villagers.

For a moment, the Li household finally fell silent.

Li Laotai and Tao Hongying hurried to see Liu Saozi, Jia Yin also followed along to join in the fun.

When the brother cat and the sister cat saw this, they also wagged their two little tails.

As a result, the newborn baby was wrinkled and thin like a little monkey, making the two brothers look even uglier. They only took one glance at him before carrying their sister home on their backs.

For fear that the chubby and adorable younger sister, staying with the little monkey for too long, would become less cute!

Everyone laughed uncontrollably. After the crowd watched Liu's wife finish her meal and nurse, they all went home.

Jiarren and Lig'er only had one day of holiday, and tomorrow morning they had to rush back to the academy.

Li Lao San and Zhao Yu Ru, of course, had to go back too. So they lit the lamps in the house. It was rare for the whole family, young and old, to be together like this. They gathered to discuss both big and small matters.

Elder Li said, "In the future, An, Xi, and Meow will also have to go to Lu'an to study. The small shop won't be able to accommodate everyone. So, Lao San, you should take a look recently to see if there is a suitable courtyard for sale in town. Buy one and put it under your name. Don't worry about the money, just make sure you and the children have a comfortable place to live."

Li Laosan hurried to agree, "Understood, Mother. I'll go check it out right away."

Tao Hongying added, "Mother, Jia Huan will be busy with the restaurant business with his elder brother. There are only three brothers and sisters-in-law in the food stall, and they also have to take care of five children. I'm afraid they won't be able to manage."

Li Laotai nodded, "I've been thinking about this too. After we buy a courtyard, Yuru will definitely stay at home. Only Lao San could work in the shop."

A few days ago, Wu Sanniang mentioned that it had been a long time since she had seen Gou Sheng'er. She missed her so much that she suggested that you ask her tomorrow if she could come to the shop to help out

Before Tao Hongying could reply, Li Laosan flushed and waved his hands frantically, "Mother, I can do it myself. I'm not afraid of hard work."

Old Li knew what he was thinking and couldn't help but laugh, "You blockhead! Do you think your mother is a fool You can't just send Wu Sanniang away to live with you in the shop and face each other every day. "

"You agree to this, and I can't let my daughter-in-law worry too much! What I mean is, let Wu San's wife and Wu San go together. Calculate their work points every day, just like the villagers do, ensuring they don't get cheated, and they can still keep an eye on their son."

Li Laosan only then realized he had misunderstood, his face flushed even redder, he lowered his head and refused to speak again.

After chatting for a while at home, they went to sleep.

Before daybreak the next day, Li Laosan and his men left.

Li Lao Er followed the Marquis into town to collect his official robes and Madam's ceremonial dress. He also took back the silver used for building the County Princess Mansion and Earl's Mansion.

Two mansions, no matter when they were built or where they are located, first get the silver in hand.

Li Laosì went to the dock, leaving Li Yong at home to accompany his wife and children.

Tao Hongying brought her family's laughter into the kitchen, collaborating on a new dish.

The other day, she was sleeping with her daughter in her arms. When she woke up in the morning, there was an extra cookbook next to her pillow, filled with recipes that all used chili peppers as a seasoning.

The highly praised boiled fish from yesterday, is one of them.

She was overjoyed, of course guessing the source of the recipe. She planted two kisses on her sleeping daughter's face.

She's been eager to try out all the dishes in the cookbook lately, but she hasn't had the free time because her household has been so busy.

Now's the time to seize the opportunity! Red chili peppers, green chili peppers, and even half-red and half-green ones have been brought into the kitchen in several baskets. The pungent smell makes passersby pinch their noses and run quickly past.

When school was out for summer, Jia Huan and Meow-er, overjoyed at the break, took advantage of their freedom. Under the pretense of keeping Liu's brothers company, they roamed the mountains and fields, leaving no trace of themselves.

Lao Li didn't restrain them either. After all, those boys wouldn't be staying home for long; they would soon be sent to Luo'an to study. During these few days at home, they could play however they liked.

Jia Yin was a "guerrilla," following whoever she wanted, getting some food and drink here, causing trouble there. Occasionally, when she felt lazy, she would just lie on the big kang.

Push open the window and let the autumn sun bathe her little belly, becoming a coveted rice worm!

Two days passed in a flash.

Early this morning, Li Laoda brought several baskets of fruit to send to Mrs. Cui and her maidservant, Qiong's, as well as the Liu family boy back home.

He also took the opportunity to visit his friends and give them some fruit as a gift.

It's Mid-Autumn Festival already, let's buy some mooncakes and treat the kids.

Li Laotai also made a shopping list and asked her son to help buy some miscellaneous items.

As a result, the sun was setting, but the son had returned. Behind him were two more people, a woman in her thirties holding a little girl of four or five!one actually wanted to ask, but no one dared to spoil the atmosphere.The battlefield was perilous, with over a thousand wounded soldiers at the docks and military camps. How could there be no deathsBu...
