Fang Qingge was stunned for a moment when he was suddenly asked this question. He knew that he shouldn't lie to Aunt Yu who had helped him when he was in the most embarrassing and miserable time.

But thinking of the uncertain bloody future, she didn't want to bring trouble to this family, so she still wanted to say sorry in her heart.

"Aunt, please forgive me for not telling you the truth. But it's all in the past and I've let it go."

After saying that, he lowered his head to show his agreement.

*

There was a moment of silence, and Aunt Yu felt even more distressed.

"Alas! Poor child. You are still so young. And...! Ahem! I won't say anything more. Qingge, don't listen to those gossipers. Just stay here peacefully. Your aunt won't let you suffer any injustice."

"Aunt, thank you." Fang Qingge said sincerely.

"Thank you! Meeting you is a blessing for our whole family...!

Your uncle's leg is healed. Look how much better I am now. I feel no pain at all when I work and I have more energy. Your sister-in-law and the others also said that they are full of energy after taking your pills!"

Aunt Yu smiled and then said with emotion:

"Qingge, thank you for what you did today! You have relieved my aunt of her worries. My aunt is very happy.

Let's go! Let's go to the main hall quickly. Your uncle and his family must be waiting anxiously. It's a coincidence that today, the head of the family, He Zhier, is back. God is blessing us!"

"aunt…."

**

In the hall,

Uncle Shen was listening to his youngest son telling about the thrilling events of the day.

When he heard that Fang Qingge's husband, whom she had just married for three days, had gone to the battlefield and never returned, Uncle Shen's brows twitched slightly, but he remained calm and said nothing.

Just at this moment, the door curtain was opened.

The mother and daughter walked into the main room hand in hand. Fang Qingge looked at the concern on the faces of Uncle Shen and his son, and her heart warmed as she began to explain as if she was admitting her mistake.

When Shen Wenzhi learned that Fang Qingge was pregnant and the baby might be posthumous, his eyes were filled with pity.

*

Fang Qingge smiled and changed the subject:

"Aunt, we should be happy, right? These days, I see you worrying about Li Huniu and can't even eat well. I feel bad for you too. But everything will be fine from today on!"

"Yes, no matter what, our family finally cancelled the engagement with that she-devil. Qingge, you have been greatly wronged today!"

*

Aunt Yu patted Fang Qingge's hands and said, then suddenly turned to look at Shen Wenzhi and asked as if she had just remembered:

"By the way, Zhi'er, why did you come back early today? What happened? But it's a good thing you came back, otherwise your marriage would have been postponed until who knows when."

Shen Wenzhi nodded and replied quickly:

"Mom, nothing happened. I came back to give Sister Qingge some money. Sister Qingge, I spent several nights writing your new story into a storybook.

I didn't expect it to be such a big hit in the bookstore, the boss was generous and paid me the money right away. Here, this is five taels of silver. In addition, I brought you three more copies."

As he said that, he reached out and handed Fang Qingge a bulging purse.

"My little cousin, please keep this. I don't want it. I just told you a few dry little stories verbally. They are nothing like the hard work you put into writing them."

Seeing Fang Qingge waving her hands to refuse, Shen Wenzhi turned to his mother for help.

"Qingge, just accept what your cousin gives you. Now that you are pregnant, you will have more expenses in the future. Just listen to your aunt and accept it."

*

But Fang Qingge did not accept it this time, and refused firmly:

"Aunt, the reason why I suggested to my little cousin that he should squeeze out some free time to write a storybook is because I don't want him to earn the hard-earned money of copying books.

My cousin is so smart that he wrote this based on the story I told him. The credit belongs to him. I won't take the money. If you insist on giving it to me, then I will consider it as my family's contribution to my cousin's tuition."

Aunt Yu was helpless after hearing this and had to give up.

"Zhi'er, keep this money and study hard to make a name for yourself."

Shen Wenzhi nodded heavily, without any more pretense, and then divided the silver into two parts, giving one to Aunt Yu and keeping the other for himself.

Then he took out three storybooks from his book bag and handed them to Fang Qingge.

*

Fang Qingge took it with a smile. Perhaps it was due to the original owner's memory. The characters of Daliang Kingdom were somewhat similar to traditional Chinese characters. Anyway, it looked easy and he could recognize them generally.

After quickly scanning a few paragraphs, Fang Qingge praised sincerely:

"My little cousin's literary talent is the icing on the cake. Qingge admires him."

Shen Wenzhi blushed suddenly out of embarrassment after being praised by her.

*

At this time,

Aunt Yu slapped her forehead and laughed:

"Look, I'm so confused. Qingge was found to be pregnant today, so I have to take good care of her! We'll kill a chicken and stew it tonight."

"Boss, let's go kill the chicken."

"Row."

Uncle Shen immediately agreed and went out together. Fang Qingge heard the yard becoming noisy.

The sound of "fluttering" catching chickens and the "clucking" laughter of Daya and Erya who had just woken up. The whole courtyard was full of vitality.

at the dinner table,

Aunt Yu and Cui Liu stewed the old hen they had raised for two years. The whole family put the best parts into Fang Qingge's bowl, taking care of her meticulously.

*

After the meal, Aunt Yu took Fang Qingge's hand and said sincerely:

"Qingge, you helped my aunt and her family accomplish something that we dared not even think about. You also saved your little cousin's life.

Now that you have no parents and no news of your husband, your aunt's home is your home. When the child is born, we will raise him together."

"Yes, Qingge, we are a family. You can live here with peace of mind from now on. We are not at home often, and you women can keep us company at home, so we men can feel at ease when we are out there."

Uncle Shen also started talking more.

"Sister Qingge, you don't know that I was terrified when I thought about becoming a sister-in-law to Li Huniu! Now it's good, our whole family is relieved."

Cui Liu, who was pushing the bamboo cart back and forth to play with Daya, couldn't help but feel happy.

Shen Wenzhi immediately regained his youthful vigor, hugged Erya and promised with a smile:

"Sister Qingge, I will be an uncle from now on. Don't worry! I will study hard and strive to pass the imperial examinations, and support my niece and nephew in the future."

"Yes, cousin, you will definitely succeed. I'm counting on you!"

"Hahaha…"

Looking at the happy family, Aunt Yu, who was laughing till tears came out, suddenly said to Fang Qingge:

"Qingge, I was just trying to make an excuse. Since you called me aunt, and called the head of the family uncle, and your cousin and his wife both like you.

I wonder if you are willing to really acknowledge our family as your godparents?"

After being stunned, Fang Qingge felt warm in his heart, and the idea of ​​leaving was suppressed in an instant.

She nodded without giving it much thought:

"Aunt, as long as you don't mind me being a burden, I'm willing."

After hearing the promise of willingness, Fang Qingge and Aunt Yu both had tears in their eyes.
