The conversation made Yang Chuxia feel embarrassed, so she quickly interrupted, "Mom, Grandma and the others haven’t even had a drink of water yet, and you’re already talking to her nonstop. Also, it’s already noon, and I’m sure they got up early to co here. They must be hungry, so we should start cooking."
Upon hearing this, Ms. Wang realized she had been talking too much and said hurriedly, "Look at , I’ve been too busy talking." Then she turned to Yang Chuxia and said, "You stay here and chat with your grandma. I’ll go cook."
Wang Yunlian then said, "Aunt, let help you cook."
"Good girl, but you’re a guest here at my house. I can’t have you helping out." Ms. Wang waved her hand, "Just sit and enjoy yourself. I’ll go by myself."
In the front room, Yang Chuxia continued talking with Ms. Liu of Wang Family and the others,
Seeing that Yang Dachuan hadn’t co back yet, Ye Zi’an went out to find him after telling Yang Chuxia.
Yang Dachuan had been busy in the fields lately, where the white yams, peanuts, and beans had all started to grow. However, weeds would inevitably grow too, so Yang Dachuan took two servants with him to weed the fields every day.
As for the other servants, they had been sent elsewhere for other tasks.
By the ti Yang Dachuan and Ye Zi’an returned, Ms. Wang had already prepared the al quickly.
Seeing this, Ye Zi’an told Yang Chuxia that he would take so food and go ho to eat. Yang Chuxia knew he didn’t want to share a table with Qian Xiaoqing, who had already turned her attention elsewhere.
Yang Chuxia figured that Mu Shaoling and his servants might not co over later, so she told Ms. Wang and then filled a food box with so dishes. Ye Zi’an carried it and they went back ho together.
During alti, Qian Xiaoqing noticed that Mu Shaoling wasn’t there and asked about it, but she was scolded by Ms. Liu of Wang Family.
After eating, Ms. Wang cleaned up the dishes and went to chat with Ms. Liu of Wang Family.
As for Wang Yongshan and his son, they went to the fields with Yang Dachuan. The Wang Family wasn’t too busy these days, so Ms. Liu of Wang Family thought that since her daughter’s family lived far away, they should spend the night there whenever they visited. Thus, after eating, Wang Yongshan and his son went to help Yang Dachuan in the fields.
Yang Chuxia was left with the responsibility of entertaining Wang Yunlian.
"Hey, where’s Xiaoqing?" Wang Yunlian wanted to see the items Ms. Wang ntioned that Ye Zi’an had prepared, so she dragged Yang Chuxia back to the room.
"I don’t know, maybe she went out?" Wang Yunlian clearly didn’t want to talk about Qian Xiaoqing. She then urged Yang Chuxia to show her the items.
Just as Yang Chuxia was about to unlock the locked box, Yang Xiayun rushed in from outside.
"Sister, Sister!" Yang Xiayun shouted as she ran, "Li Chun and Xiaoqing are fighting!"
On hearing this, Yang Chuxia was at a loss, not knowing how the two had run into each other and started fighting.
"Where are they now?" Yang Chuxia asked.
"At Brother Zi’an’s front door." Hearing that it was at Ye Zi’an’s house, Yang Chuxia had a pretty good idea of what had happened and could almost guess how it ca about.
She then hurriedly ran outside. As she passed by Ms. Liu of Wang Family, she said, "Grandma, you really need to discuss Xiaoqing’s engagent to my cousin with my second aunt. Don’t ruin my cousin’s life."
After saying this, she headed for Ye Zi’an’s house.
The small building at Ye Zi’an’s house had been completed, but the courtyard walls were not yet fully built. From the outside, Qian Xiaoqing and Yang Lichun could be seen tearing at each other.
As Yang Chuxia approached, she could hear Qian Xiaoqing cursing, "Who are you to dare to co looking for the young master? Do you think he would even look at you?"
