Liu Hu Gets Hurt In the blink of an eye, Song Tingzhu has been married into the Liu family for almost half a month. With Tian Le, Xiaomei, and Xia Ge'er keeping him company, Song Tingzhu lives comfortably every day, rarely falling ill. It was only during the first spring rain that he stood under the eaves watching for a while, and by the afternoon, he started to feel feverish.

Silently Taking Root On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, it's the Lantern Festival. The villagers of Yunxi Village all got up early, each carrying baskets and bags. They looked cheerful, not just because they could go to town to enjoy the lanterns and the lively atmosphere, but also because with so many people in town today, the things they brought were sure to sell for a good price. At the small Liu family courtyard, the oil lamps were lit early. Ruan Xiulian and her eldest daughter-in-law each…

Xia Ge'er Gets Bullied The two were so engrossed in their chat that they lost track of time. Liu Hu stood up and blocked most of the sunlight, making it hard to see the drawings clearly. Tian Le tilted his body, not wanting to take his eyes off the drawings for even a second. "Brother Huzi, what are you doing? I was just discussing something important with my sister-in-law's husband." Liu Hu ignored him and looked at his own wife, stubbornly saying, "Wife, you should go inside and rest." Song Tingzhu…

Tingzhu Makes a Move "Quick, go check it out! Your cousin, who's studying in town, is back. That kid, Jie, insists that Xia Ge'er teased his sister Qiao'er, not only knocking over Xia Ge'er's tofu but also complaining to your cousin to teach Xia Ge'er a lesson!" Liu Xiaomei, hearing this, quickly dropped what she was doing and looked anxiously at Song Tingzhu. "What should we do, Brother-in-law? Dad, Mom, and Big Brother are not at home. I'm afraid I can't bring Xia Ge'er back by myself." Song Tingzhu…

Severing Ties Meanwhile, at Liu Laoda's house. Liu Xiaomei looked worriedly at Xia Ge'er, who was lying on the bed, eyes closed and muttering incessantly. "Grandpa Liang, how is Xia Ge'er?" Doctor Liang put away his medicine box and said, "It's nothing serious, just a fright. He needs some comfort. Xia Ge'er is young, if not handled properly, it might affect his mind." Affect his mind? Liu Xiaomei was stunned. She recalled a foolish man in Shanghe Village who was frightened as a child. His parents didn't…

I'm Not Angry A few days later. The people of Yunxi Village, having finished their farm work, found themselves with a few days of leisure. They gathered in small groups in front of their courtyards, chatting idly. "Why haven't we heard Old Lady Liu cursing at the eldest household these past few days? She cursed continuously for half a month, and suddenly stopping feels a bit odd." "I know about this. A fortune teller came to the village a couple of days ago. He was spot on, knowing the names of every…

The Qian Family Comes to Collect Debt (Slight Revision) Song Tingzhu was telling a few little girls about some herbs he saw in a book. As they passed by the big banyan tree, Liu Xiaomei waved goodbye to her three little sisters. "Paying back debts is only right and proper. If you don't have money, then use something else to pay!" Just as they turned the corner, the two of them heard a rough and domineering male voice coming from the courtyard. Xia Ge'er was a bit scared, clutching tightly to Song Tingzhu's…

Ruan Family in Xiahe Village The next morning, after breakfast, the three of them packed up and headed to Xiahe Village. Before leaving, Song Tingzhu took two poetry collections from the bookshelf to bring along. It was Song Tingzhu's first time leaving Yunxi Village. Along the way, he curiously looked around, noticing the vast wheat fields that swayed like waves in the breeze, making him feel relaxed. No wonder Song Rui'er liked to go out with her girlfriends for outings; it was so refreshing that even…
