The braised pork Cui Yunzhu made that day was truly the most delicious meat he had ever eaten in his life.

After taking a bite of the braised beef with soy sauce today, he felt that the dishes he had eaten before could not be considered cooking. He ate with big mouthfuls, but in his heart he still thought that the braised pork made by his wife was the best.

When he ate the custard buns, he was shocked again!

In the Kingdom of Daxia, sugar is a very precious thing. The only sweet things that people can get in their area, apart from some fruits, are sugar, and all of them are very expensive.

He couldn't tell what the bun in his hand was made of, he just felt it was milky and sweet, which made people feel particularly happy when eating it. Coupled with the vivid shape, that place called modern was really great.

As I thought about it, I felt a little guilty. My wife must be living a good life over there, but now she has to live a hard life with me here.

Cui Yunzhu took a bite of the custard bun, looked at him fiercely and said, "Don't think of those nonsense. I tell you that eating well there is nothing. Marrying the wrong person is terrible. Some people try all kinds of ways to kill their wives for their wives' family's money. Do you trust me to marry someone else there?"

Marry someone else?

Chen Yan's heart was filled with alarm and he quickly denied his thoughts.

Yes, he thought too much. At least here he was sincere to her and would never let her down. What's more, his wife now had a baby and would not have to live a hard life.

"Don't be angry, I won't think too much about it anymore."

He really looks like a henpecked husband. He becomes obedient after just a few threats. I really want to bully him, Cui Yunzhu thought maliciously.

In the main room, everyone was there except Wang and Wang Xiuchun who had been crying yesterday.

The breakfast was simple, with each person having a bowl of brown rice porridge and a sweet potato, but Cui Yunzhu thought it was good, much better than at Cui's house.

After finishing a bowl of porridge, Cui Yunzhu couldn't help burping. She found that no one was looking at her and everyone was slurping the porridge in their bowls. She silently pushed her sweet potato towards Chen Yan. She had just eaten too much in the house and couldn't eat anymore.

After Chen Yan received the sweet potato, he picked it up and started eating it. Zheng glared at him and said, "Why do you eat it just because your wife loves you so much?"

Chen Kang and Chen Ping looked up when they heard the voice. Isn't it just that the woman asked for some food?

Men work hard and are the backbone of the family. Is there any need for his mother to be so serious about it?

Chen Yan was caught in the crossfire. No one except him knew that Cui Yunzhu was pregnant. He could only endure Zheng's scolding in silence.

"Mom, I ate too much last night and I have indigestion today. I really was full before I gave it to him." Cui Yunzhu didn't dare to eat too much in the house anymore, otherwise there would be a risk of being exposed.

Zheng usually wouldn't care so much, but she felt that what happened yesterday had wronged the third son's wife, and this morning she saw her letting the third son eat, so she said, "Wang Xiuchun's matter--"

"Ahem!" She was interrupted by Chen's father just as she started to speak.

"Eat! After dinner, the three of you come with me to sort out the grain we harvested this year. We should get it sorted and husked before the New Year so that we can sell it in town for a good price." Father Chen finally spoke and looked at his three sons.

"Hey!"

Cui Yunzhu was not clear about the situation of the Chen family, but she realized that something was wrong. Combined with Chen Yan's depressed mood last night, she seemed to have figured out some unclear things about the Chen family.

She had just entered the house and had no hope that Zheng and Chen's father would severely punish Wang, but at least they should give her an apology and explanation.

She remembered that yesterday Chen's father hurriedly asked them to go back to the house, and today he interrupted Zheng to bring up the matter without even giving an explanation. It seemed that he punished Wang, but in fact he gave enough face to the eldest brother's family and told them in disguise that the matter had come to an end.

Cui Yunzhu understood that this family was still biased.

It's better to have a bias, and she doesn't have to feel guilty about dividing the family. There are many people who love the son that Chen's father doesn't love.

Chen Yan was originally worried that his wife would think too much, but when he saw that she seemed to be in a good mood, he understood that she was a smart girl and naturally thought clearly.

After dinner, Chen Yan followed his father to the warehouse to sort out the grain, while Cui Yunzhu returned to her room to prepare to make the purple jacket.

In the past, Zhou would buy the fabrics for the family and then ask her to sew the clothes. She was naturally familiar with the process. She would first determine the size, cut the fabrics, and then start sewing stitch by stitch.

There was not much work to do in the fields in winter, and Zheng hadn't asked her to feed the chickens and ducks at home. Cui Yunzhu naturally wouldn't speak first, so she decided to wait for her mother-in-law to make arrangements.

Wang went home again and there was no fuss. Little Zheng also went back to her room to take care of Yaoyao. Chen Qiqi was left in the main room by Zheng, probably to be taught to do some needlework.

Cui Yunzhu had a rare moment of quiet time, so she planned to take advantage of this time to make some clothes.

She sat at the table sewing clothes, and soon she felt a little sore in her eyes, and then she realized that a long time had passed. There was a sound of footsteps outside the door, and the man pushed the door open.

Seeing that the room was no different from yesterday and there was nothing unusual, he breathed a sigh of relief, took out two padlocks from his arms, hung one on the wardrobe and fastened it, and put the other on the table, intending to hang it on the door when he went out.

The keys to the two locks were different, so he used a thick rope to string the two keys together, kept one for himself and gave the other to Cui Yunzhu.

"You sorted it out so quickly, and you even took the time to buy a lock." Cui Yunzhu stood up and poured him a cup of hot water, which she had specially boiled in the kitchen before entering the house, and it was now just warm.

"We must not forget such an important matter. There are four of us going. The grain is easy to deal with. Today our main task is to pack the grain in the warehouse into bags. Dad said that we will borrow some hulling tools from other families tomorrow to hull the brown rice. Four grown men will be almost done in two days." What Chen Yan didn't say was that Chen's father decided to take a rest first because Chen Kang was upset while working.

Chen Kang did this deliberately in front of him, hoping that he would give him a way out as usual, so that he could take the opportunity to propose to take Wang home. But today Chen Yan didn't say a word, which made him very depressed.

Even Chen Ping, who was usually dull, noticed something was wrong.

"Then how do you plan to persuade Dad to give up the idea of ​​selling grain?"

"I'm going out this afternoon. When I come back, I'll tell him some news. Some places in the north have started to stockpile food. My father has been cautious all his life. Besides, life at home is not that difficult now. Although he favors my eldest brother," Chen Yan laughed at himself nonchalantly, "he still trusts me. So as long as I tell him, he will have concerns and think about it carefully."
