"Similarly, snow in winter can freeze people to death or crush them to death."

"All our relatives can't be contacted. Our family was wandering north in the dark. We encountered many restless refugees on the road. They burned, killed, looted and committed all kinds of evil. Wan'er's parents were lost like this."

"They are good people. They take care of the elderly at the top and the young at the bottom. Some people can't do that."

"This is the only bloodline in our Yu family." Mrs. Dong's eyes turned red.

"Maybe one day, I will meet my relatives, maybe."

"It's hard to meet each other! Since Wang recovered from her illness, she has never mentioned that betrayed man. If you meet her, will you help her vent her anger?"

"Oh, you think too highly of me. He is an official and I am a citizen. If I want to be angry, I must have that ability."

Dong said in his heart, just pretend, no one can guess the extent of your ability.

"What if you have that ability?"

"It depends on Wang's wishes. I never meddle in other people's business, but she is mine. If she wants him to live, I will let him live. If she wants him to die, I will let him die."

Mr. Dong swallowed, he was indeed his master, to put it mildly, he was so domineering and mighty!
"She may not have that idea anymore. She once mentioned to me that she wants to be here with you, raise her child with peace of mind, and then cut off from that person and never contact him again."

"It's best this way, otherwise there will be endless trouble."

Such peaceful days lasted until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, when Ji Mingtang sent someone to deliver the stone back.

In the village, this is not considered a festival, but in counties and prefectures, every household has to hang up red lanterns to celebrate the festival.

I am so happy that Shitou can go home.

"Daughter-in-law, do you miss me? Haha, I didn't even mention it, but he took the initiative to send me off. He also said that he would send someone to pick me up at 25."

Qin Yue looked at him happily: "Well, it saves me having to send it off."

"What, you want to send me away?"

"Yes."

"The man is here, I let him go, you send me off."

"Get lost! I won't be able to see my aunt to rest for a while."

"hey-hey."

Shitou lowered his head to salute and rolled up his sleeves: "Whatever you want to eat, order food and I will cook it for you."

The two of them were in the kitchen, one sitting and one standing, one watching and the other working. Mrs. Dong and the others did not come out for fear of disturbing the young couple.

She poked Mr. Wang: "You are still young, are you looking for me?"

Wang shook her head: "I'm not looking for it."

"Do you still think about him?"

"No, I'm afraid that when he finds out, it would be better to be alone like this when dealing with others."

Mrs. Dong was puzzled: "What's he doing to hug you? He's already climbed a high branch, but you're not allowed to marry again?"

"He is that kind of person. He wants to be strong in everything and save face in everything. How can he allow others to get involved in his own woman, even if he doesn't want it."

"It's so cruel, but don't be afraid. With my wife here, no one dares to bully you."

"I don't want to cause trouble to Madam. This is great. Dong'er doesn't need my guidance at all. Madam has trained him very well. I am very satisfied. The food and supplies at home are a hundred times better than before."

"Well, that's what I think too. We two, we don't want to think about anything in the future and just serve my wife wholeheartedly."

Shitou cooked two tables of food, one for Dong and others, and the other for him and Qin Yue.

The two sat on the heated Kang, facing each other, and filled with wine.

"Daughter-in-law, come here, let's have a bowl to warm ourselves up and celebrate our husband's return home."

Qin Yue touched her belly with her hand. The month was too short to pull it out, and she didn't know whether she was pregnant or not. Forget about the wine, she pushed it with her hand.

“Just water instead of bar.”

"Why? Don't you usually like to drink a little wine?"

"We got married on the [-]th and it's already been half a month. If you get pregnant, drinking will be harmful to your health and bad for the baby. Don't drink it yet and wait and see in a month."

Shitou's eyes widened and he suddenly grinned.

"Then I won't drink it. I drank this bowl of wine. Do you want some juice? I'll squeeze a bowl for you?"

"No, just drink water."

Shitou was so happy that he asked cautiously: "Will we no longer be able to have sex in the future?" "It's best to endure it for the first three months. After three months, don't make any big movements, or you may miscarry."

"Oh, then I'll try my best to restrain myself."

Qin Yue smiled: "Let's eat. Today is the Lantern Festival. It's dark, so let's light the lanterns."

"Yes, daughter-in-law."

The two of them were talking and laughing while eating. The door was left open, and with a crash, Xiaotie and the others rushed in.

Everyone was squatting on the ground, looking at the two of them, how could they eat?A dozen big suns are too bright.

Shitou frowned, but grinned broadly.

"Why don't you play outside?"

He was quite quiet unless he asked, but when he asked, everyone yelled at him.

Shitou scratched his hair and asked Qin Yue for help.

"Today is the last day they can play wildly at home. The workshop will start tomorrow, and they have to be obedient and not run around. So, they want to get together with us, right?"

After another roar, Qin Yue covered her ears and pointed at the door.

"Go play in the courtyard, and I'll get you some delicious food later."

With a crash, everything rushed out.

"Daughter-in-law, you still have a way."

"If you like them, you should pamper them and love them. Even though they can't talk, you know very well in your heart that the difference between humans and animals is that humans rely on pampering to become spoiled, but animals will only love you more."

"Hey, I like them too, but they don't like me and keep pestering you."

"Of course."

In the afternoon, the two held hands and went for a walk behind them, and even went crazy with them for a while.

Shitou has always been very careful to protect Qin Yue, fearing that if she was really pregnant, she would hurt the child by running back and forth.

He has never eaten pork, but he has seen pigs running around. Everything written in the book, what the women said, and what his wife instilled in him are all in his mind.

"How is Ji Mingtang's level?"

When Shitou heard his wife ask him, he hurriedly said: "Gao, he is really tall. The rumors outside are true. His mind is like a bookstore. I learned a lot from being with him."

"Well, don't be polite to him. If you can dig them all, dig them all. No matter how much I can teach you, I'm not very familiar with this dynasty."

"Then what was the place where you used to live like?"

She asked carefully, and Qin Yue burst into laughter.

"It's completely different from here. How should I put it? It's very backward here and it's very advanced there."

"advanced?"

"It's a place hundreds of times stronger than yours. Let's put it this way. With an army of ten thousand people, we can sweep across the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. It's not an exaggeration to say we are invincible."

"Hey, is there such a place?"

"Of course, but I can never go back, and you can't go even if you want to. You'd better live our lives peacefully."

When it was getting dark, the two of them went home. Mrs. Dong and the others had already prepared the meal.

Everyone finished eating together and hung up red lanterns together.

Hang them at the entrance of the courtyard, the door of the house, wherever there is a door.

That night, Qin Yue told them a story about the Lantern Festival, the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

"Legend has it that there was an emperor who believed in Buddha, so on the first full moon night of every year, which was the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, he lit lanterns all night to honor the Buddha in his heart. From then on, the people followed suit and this festival was born. .”

"So, do you have to fast on this day?"

"If you believe it, eat it. If you don't believe it, don't eat it. This is just a legend, but it may not be true."

"Madam, when will we go to the temple to worship the Bodhisattva?"

Qin Yue looked at them each with expectant eyes and said:
"Go when you have time. If you don't have the strength, you won't have a good life even if you burn incense."

Mrs. Wang said: "Madam, there is a family in our village who is hardworking and kind, but was bullied by a rich man and his family was ruined. Can you tell me, why are good people not rewarded?"
