"Of course it's real. Are you going or not?" Xia Zhi pinched Xiao Xialin's cheek:

  Xia Xia Lin giggled and went to see Nian Yue, seeing that Nian Yue didn't say anything, he stretched out his small hand and pulled at Nian Yue's pant leg.

  "Say something on this winter's day," Xia Zhi said with a smile.

  "La Yue looked at Xia Zhi, then looked at her younger brother, and finally nodded. 'Fourth sister, I'll go help you with cooking when the time comes.'"

  "Go ahead, you two go first." Xia Zhi nodded, although he didn't plan to let Dong Yue and his sister do anything.

  This will work, just listen to Luo's several people saying and laughing from the east wing out to the upper house. La Yue looked out of the window for a moment, and couldn't sit still. She asked Xia Zhi: "Fourth sister, shall we go take a look?"

  "Then let's go and take a look."

  In the upper house, Old Lady Xia was on the kang, while Auntie Luo and her daughters Wu Yue and Qi Yue were sitting along the edge of the kang. Xia Zhu and Xia Yang were sitting on a long bench on the floor.

  Xia Er Aunt was sitting sideways, rolling up her sleeves, letting Xia Lao Tai see the shiny gold bangle on her wrist. "...I said no, but Juanzi insisted on giving it to me, saying that my bare wrist didn't look good. I'm not used to wearing this thing, it's too heavy, and it keeps slipping down!"

  The words seem to be somewhat disdainful, but both the tone and voice are gleeful, with a hint of boastfulness.

  Old Lady Xia glanced at the wrist of Xia Erniang and smiled in agreement with her words. Seeing that Xia Zhi and Xueyue had arrived, she also beckoned to the two children to come over and take a look. "This bangle is well-made, it's not an ordinary good thing at first glance."

  Xia Erniang was very pleased, stretching out her arm to let Xia Zhi and Xueyue see. "In our village, who has ever seen such good things?! It's enough to marry a daughter-in-law."

  Xia Zhi took a look and only felt that the gold's color was good, but the workmanship didn't seem particularly exquisite. Xia Er Shu said it was heavy-handed, which was somewhat exaggerated. The bangle looked like it weighed about one or two liang. If it were really pure gold, then it would be worth some money.

  Xia Er aunt is so proud of herself, so Xia Zhi also followed Xia Lao Tai Tai's praise with a few words.

  Luoshi was delighted and almost beaming with joy, but then complained to Old Lady Xia that the bangle was too loose, fearing it would accidentally fly off.

  "Just be careful when you're working." Although she said so, Old Lady Xia still took out a ball of thread from the needlework basket and helped Xia Erniu tighten the cufflinks, wrapping the flat ends with cotton thread.

  Xia Er Aunt was very satisfied and said, "It's much better this way." Then she asked Xia Lao Tai Tai and Xia Zhi to look at May and July: "These two new sets of clothes were also given by their sister Juan. The fabric is good, not to mention the style, which is the most fashionable in the city." As she spoke, she also asked May and July to stand up for everyone to take a good look.

  July immediately stood up and turned around in a circle in front of everyone. May was more reserved, she stood up, stretched her waist casually, and then raised her hand to touch her hair.

  On the top of May, there is a silver hairpin with a little more oil.

  Old Lady Xia repeatedly said it was good. Summer Second Aunt smiled complacently, and took out a piece of cloth to show everyone, saying that Juanzai had given it to Xia Zhu and Xia Yang to make two new clothes. "Look at this, old lady, after making clothes for the two brothers, there will be some left over, almost enough to make one for their father too."

  Old Lady Xia naturally echoed and again praised Juanzi as good.

  This Juanzi everyone is talking about is a niece of Madame Luo, the wife of Xia Erbo's family. She got married last year and became the daughter-in-law of a small business owner in the prefectural city.

  "Second Aunt, how did your daughter become so wealthy?" Xia Zhi asked.

  This sentence hit Luo's weak point, she sat up straight on the kang: "As for Juanzi, that's just good luck, marrying a good family!"

  Old Lady Xia had been echoing Luo's words, but in fact she also had some doubts. Seeing that Luo was willing to talk, she tentatively asked a question. "Last year when you went to attend the wedding, I heard you say that Juanzi married a small businessman from the prefectural city. What kind of business did he do to get rich?"

  "Making a fortune is not that easy! These are all good things that have fallen from the sky! It's because their young aunt became the second wife of Tian Zhongsheng, and just the betrothal gifts were worth 400 taels of silver. As for the silk, satin, gold, silver, and jewels, they can't even be counted. Ever since she married into that family, every time she comes back home, she brings back whatever she wants." Luo's big mouth opened and closed as she spoke, spitting out saliva everywhere. "It's all thanks to our Juan being a lucky wife, marrying into the Zhang family just a few months ago, and now their family has made this fortune."

  So that's why the Luo family sent their two sons to live with their maternal grandparents for so many days. However, what they call "second wife", sounds nice, but actually it should be a concubine.

  Xia Zhi thought so, and looked at Old Lady Xia. Old Lady Xia's face didn't show any expression, nor did she say anything. The second son wasn't her biological child, and they weren't close either. She was always polite to this daughter-in-law of hers, only saying good things, not bad ones.

  "Juanzi's child looks like a lucky one." Old Lady Xia took out the shoe sole from her needlework basket and began to sew.

  "It's not, it's really something that no one expected. Juanzi is not only lucky but also has a good personality, let alone the things she gave to her grandparents and parents, just look at what she gave us! ... If any family had such a daughter, they would have nothing to worry about, relatives could all bask in her glory. Old lady, you haven't heard her talk about the gold and silver mountains in her home..."

  Luoshi pulled Xia Laotaitai, talking endlessly. Xia Laotaitai did her chores on the side, listening with a good temper, occasionally adding one or two sentences.

  "Grandma, let my uncle come over to our house for dinner tonight."

  Lao Lao Tai Tai hadn't spoken yet, when Luo Shi suddenly picked up the conversation: "Oh my, is Sixteen making a fortune? He even knows to invite his aunt for dinner. Is he inviting Second Uncle and Second Aunt too?"

  "Second Uncle and Second Aunt are willing to go, of course I welcome them. Please invite my fifth sister, seventh sister, second pillar and small Yang to come. Ninth month and small Linzi will also go." Xia Zhi smiled mischievously, "My parents aren't at home, thanks to everyone for taking care of things. I didn't prepare anything either, sorry about that, so let's just have a gathering with my siblings at my place."

  "Hey," said Luo, constantly sizing up Xia Zhi, and saying to Old Lady Xia, "Look, old lady, at 16, she's still quite particular."

  Old Lady Xia understood what Xia Zhi meant, so she said to let her not bother: "You have this intention, everyone has accepted it. One family doesn't speak two families' words, you kids play however you want." Since Tian Shi wasn't home, Xia Zhi didn't invite the adults in order to avoid future arguments, and instead invited the children over for dinner, which showed appreciation for everyone.

  Because he didn't like listening to Luo's boasting and nagging, Xia Zhi made his words clear and then came out of the upper room.

  "May and July followed up: 'Sixteen, you're treating us to dinner, what dishes are you preparing?'"
