The Prestigious Family’s Young Miss and The Farmer – Chapter 23 Part 2

CHAPTER 23 PART 1 THE YOUNG COUPLE’S PRIVATE STASH

Suddenly he recalled some matter and said to Lin Qingwan: “Tomorrow is the day when you would have to return to your natal family. Tomorrow, we will go to dagu’s* place.” He had already considered about earlier. For Wanwan, who was all alone without anyone to depend upon, Yang-shi’s place can be regarded as her natal family’s home.

*大姑 (dàgū): father’s oldest sister

Lin Qingwan brows puckered up.

“Mother… won’t she say anything?” Her tone was full of hesitation and awkwardness. Regarding the dispute between Yang-shi and He-shi, she was very clear about it.

Yang-shi had already told her everything without concealing anything. Furthermore, these past two days, she could also see that He-shi wasn’t happy with her. It was merely because they were newlywed and were in the first three days of their marriage, He-shi restrained herself from finding faults with her. 

Yang Tiezhu thought for a bit before opening his mouth, “It wouldn’t look good if you don’t go to your natal family; mother doesn’t care about her.”

 The next day, both of them got up early in the morning. Lin Qingwan even especially dressed herself up for the occasion, as she was dressed in the crimson red colored dress.

After having breakfast, both of them set off with few things under He-shi’s black face. 

When a newlywed woman returns to her natal family, it’s customary for her son-in-law to bring some presents for his mother-in-law.

They were nothing much, just a few eatable kinds of stuff, a pork strip, two packets of fruits, along with some rice-flour noodles and so on.  

Yang Tiezhu had already bought these all stuff previously and placed them in his room so that when leaving, he can take them directly.  

Usually, the gifts for Yang jia’s xifus when returning to their natal family on the third day are prepared using the family’s public funds. As such, on the day of going, they would directly take from He-shi. 

However, Yang Tiezhu didn’t count on He-shi to prepare any presents for this day, especially when they were going to Yang-shi’s place. 

Both of them walked out of the courtyard and walked towards the west of the village. The place Yang-shi was living was not that far from Yang jia, just a few minutes of walk away.

Seeing both of them coming, Yang-shi was overjoyed. Especially when she saw them coming in with the things that were brought only when a newly married woman returns to her natal family after three days of marriage, her eyes welled up in joy. The three of them then together entered the main house and sat down on the kang.

 Seeing both of their happy appearances, and also Lin Qingwan’s very good complexion, not a bit like a person who was tormented, Yang-shi guessed she had a good time these past two days in Yang jia, and gave even more gratified smile.   

“Good, good, truly good, it seems both of you are getting along well; dagu is also relived…” 

Yang-shi murmured, “In the future dagu can have a grandnephew, then dagu can even be happier….” 

Lin Qingwan blushingly said “Dagu …” 

Yang Tiezhu again gave a silly laugh.

After casually chit-chatting for a while, Yang-shi went out to prepare lunch. 

Lin Qingwan wanted to help, but Yang-shi resolutely pushed her on the kang to sit, not letting her leave, saying that the new bride should not do any work first three days. As such Lin Qingwan had no other choice but to give up. 

Yang-shi was so happy that she even happily killed an old hen to add a dish into the lunch menu.

The lunch was quite sumptuous with chicken, fish, and meat, in big and small-sized plates spread over the entire table.

Yang Tiezhu and Lin Qingwan repeatedly grumbled that the Yang-shi was too polite, and there was no need to make such a sumptuous meal just for family. Moreover, there were only three of them, how would they be able to finish all of it.

Yang-shi smiled and jokingly said that these meals were made according to the norms when a married daughter returns to her natal family first time. Since you have already regarded this place as Wan’er’s natal family, there was no need to be courteous. 

Both the guests and hosts thoroughly enjoyed themselves and ate in great delight. The entire atmosphere was also quite nice, unlike the stifling feeling in Yang jia at the dining table. As such both Lin Qingwan and Yang Tiezhu ate till they were full.

After eating, Yang Tiezhu felt full to bursting point and uncomfortable. He also had to stay here the whole day, so he simply said to Yang-shi that her would take Daihei and Erhei out for a walk, also conveniently aid in digestion.

Lin Qingwan also felt full and uncomfortable, so she said she would tag along.

 Looking at both of them glowing with health, Yang-shi was also extremely happy and let them go out and have fun, but not before repeatedly reminding them to come before supper as they would still have to return back in the evening. A new bride should not stay in her natal family’s house till the sunset before returning to her husband’s house. 

Yang Tiezhu whistled and waved; the two black dogs immediately understood that he was taking them out to play, and at once sprang to outside the courtyard.

After coming out of the courtyard, Yang Tiezhu led Lin Qingwan to the outskirts of the village.

As it was still afternoon, not many people were present on the trail. Occasionally, they would pass by one or two people, but they also rushed away after greeting them. 

Gradually, only two of them were left on that trail. 

With two black dogs running wildly at the front, Yang Tiezhu and Lin Qingwan followed them from behind. 

At this time, the sun was just right, and a cool breeze was blowing from the trees at the side. The air was also fresh and clean…

Lin Qingwan relished the moment as she took a deep breath. Looking at the two dogs at the front, unexpectedly, she felt a great sense of satisfaction. 

It was truly nice…

When she had transmigrated here. She had never dared to fancy this kind of life…

This man was also very good to her…

Yang Tiezhu looked at his relishing wife with his full of affection.  

He was a rural man who grew up in the mountains and wasn’t aware of any sophisticated words to describe his wife’s appearance. He only felt that his wife was very good, very, very good…her temperament, way of speaking, and way of dressing, her smile was also very nice…she was good everywhere…
