Chapter 751: Chapter 751 Much Better Chapter 751: Chapter 751 Much Better The vegetables that Su Yunjin planted a month ago in the courtyard had all grown lush and green, brimming with vitality. Among them, the chili peppers she planted had already blossomed, and one could faintly see the small chili peppers forming. The cucumbers were also blooming, and other vegetables like the water spinach and carrots were growing quite well, full of life.
Looking at the several small vegetable patches in the courtyard, Su Yunjin thought to herself that in about half a month, the vegetables should be ready to eat. By then, she and Gu Ya would come back to live here and pick vegetables from the yard to eat.
“Yunjin, it’s about time. Let’s go back to the old house now and see how mom and dad are doing,” Su Yunjin nodded at Gu Ya.
It was indeed getting late.
After visiting Lord Gu Chengxiang and the mother-in-law.
Su Yunjin also had to hurry back to town with Gu Ya.
Carrying things back to the old house was quite rare as the eldest sister-in-law’s terrible family was all out, including the fourth brother Gu Tiezhu, especially since Mrs. Han ran off with another man.
Gu Tiezhu was hardly ever at home anymore.
Xiaoshan and Xiangxiang were both looked after by Mrs. An and Gu Chengxiang. If it weren’t for Mrs. An and Gu Chengxiang, Xiaoshan and Xiangxiang would have probably been left without anyone to care for them.
Mrs. An was washing clothes in the courtyard, clothes belonging to the two kids, Xiaoshan and Xiangxiang. Seeing Su Yunjin and Gu Ya, she walked over happily, “Third brother, third sister-in-law, you’re back?”
“Mom, my husband and I have brought you and dad some food. We also came to check on dad’s injury,” Su Yunjin handed the basket with snacks and tea leaves to Mrs. An.
Mrs. An, seeing the number of things her daughter-in-law brought, was pleasantly delighted but scolded, “Yunjin, you bought so much again. You and the third brother must have spent a lot of money, right? It’s not easy for the two of you to make money outside, so you mustn’t spend anymore.”
One must be thrifty in daily life to avoid becoming poor. Mrs. An shared her way of living with Su Yunjin, wanting Su Yunjin to learn to manage a household frugally.
Su Yunjin knew that her mother-in-law Mrs. An meant no harm and was thinking of her and Gu Ya’s well-being. So, regarding her mother-in-law’s advice, although Su Yunjin disagreed, she didn’t argue.
She agreed verbally, but whether to follow through was another matter. In Gu Ya’s hands was also some fruit wine, which his wife had made for his mother and father, “Mom, these two jars of fruit wine were brewed by Yunjin. Please take them and give them to dad as well.”
Mrs. An cheerfully took the items, then went to pick up the wine.
The two jars felt heavy in her hands, making her appreciate her third daughter-in-law and third son’s filial piety even more. Amongst everyone in the family, aside from Mrs. Chu who occasionally brought them a few buns,
The eldest daughter-in-law’s family and the fourth son, Gu Tiezhu, were unreliable.
Particularly Gu Tiezhu. Every time Mrs. An thought of her no-good son, she couldn’t help but sigh. Su Yunjin and Gu Ya always brought some food whenever they visited.
Xiangxiang and Xiaoshan seemed to know that Su Yunjin would bring food, flocking around whenever they came, and there was osmanthus cake in the basket.
Mrs. An took out a pack to give to the two children, letting them share and eat it. Having treats, Xiangxiang and Xiaoshan were exceptionally happy.
Mrs. An went to the kitchen to store away the things Su Yunjin had brought, while Su Yunjin and Gu Ya went to Lord Gu Chengxiang’s room. Today, Su Yunjin’s main purpose was to check on Lord Gu Chengxiang’s injuries.
Gu Chengxiang, who was confined to his room every day, was very pleased to see Su Yunjin and Gu Ya and asked them to sit. He then learned that Su Yunjin was there to examine his injuries.
Gu Chengxiang laughed and told Su Yunjin that he felt much better from his injuries lately
