On the third day of March, Xiang Xing, who got married last winter, returned to her parents’ home.

Looking at her pregnant belly, Lin Xiaoman thought it was quite magical that the sisters who grew up together were about to become mothers.

When Xiangxing returned home this time, her husband Xu Hongda drove a carriage back.

When he came here to welcome his bride, Lin Xiaoman took a look at Xu Hongda. He was a handsome scholar, not very tall, and looked a bit weak, not like he could farm.

But I heard that he is very good at studying. He took the exam with Erhu last year and also won the title of Tongsheng. I originally wanted to wait until he became a scholar before getting married, but seeing that he was getting older, I didn’t know when he would become a scholar. Trust people to talk matchmaking everywhere.

Therefore, her husband's family looked down on Xiangxing's family as a merchant. They heard that she had a large dowry, so they asked someone to come to propose marriage.

When she returned home three days later, Lin Xiangxing didn't look good, but no matter how Shen Guihua asked, she refused to say anything.

Later, Shen Guihua asked someone to inquire and found out that the Xu family was very strict. The day after they got married, she set up rules for Lin Xiangxing. She had to get up early to cook, serve her parents-in-law, and even let her wash her sister-in-law's clothes, all day long. There is no idle time.

Both inside and outside of her words, she was disgusted with the fact that she was almost blackmailed by a man when she was at her parents' home. How could a daughter from a good family get into such a thing? Or she was indiscreet before getting married.

Lin Xiangxing felt bitter because she was afraid that her parents would be worried and refused to complain to her parents. However, when her husband's family kept nagging her about having no money, she pretended not to understand so that they did not take advantage of her.

But the more this happens, the more her husband’s family dislikes her.

One time, when she was sent to the kitchen to cook, the two sisters-in-law, with the tacit permission of her mother-in-law, broke into her house and tried to steal something.

Fortunately, she happened to come back to the house and ran into her, so only a piece of clothing material was stolen.

Shen Guihua was so angry that she went to a dental shop in the city and bought two wives. They were both from wealthy families who were in trouble and were sold.

Both women were tough, and they stood in the yard and scolded each other, letting the neighbors know that the Xu family was planning a dowry for their new daughter-in-law. For many days, the Xu family could not hold their heads up when they went out.

Xu Hongda's face was not very good-looking at first. He was more on the side of his mother-in-law and his new daughter-in-law. But then he heard his mother-in-law break it off and said in a broken voice that the new daughter-in-law was the one who had the same heart as him. The new daughter-in-law The dowry belongs to the couple and their future children. If you give it away to others now, others will not thank you and will only think that the wool is good.

What's more, there has never been a precedent in this dynasty for a scholar to worry about his wife's dowry. Anyone who dares to take this idea will be scolded.

He is a scholar and wants to go further in the future. Now that his reputation has been ruined, how can he be an official in the future?

Xu Hongda thought about it and this was also the case, and his ugly face was partly due to the quarrel between his family and his new wife over the dowry, which made his face dull.

After that, I don’t know what he said to the Xu family, but the Xu family really restrained themselves a lot.

And with two mothers-in-law, there was always someone in Lin Xiangxing's room, and the Xu family never found another chance to take action.

Both mothers-in-law were sharp-tongued. If the Xu family dared to go too far, they would shout loudly in the yard and criticize Huaihuai. Gradually, the Xu family did not dare to provoke them, and they did not dare to bully Lin Xiangxing.<

/p>

A mother-in-law brainwashed Xu Hongda from time to time, and Xu Hongda began to believe that only his wife could truly live with him.

This time Xu Hongda sent Lin Xiangxing back to her parents' home because grandma Xiangxing was celebrating her birthday, and the young couple came back to celebrate her birthday.

Lin Xiaoman, who was planting corn in the field, heard that Lin Xiangxing was back. He put down what he was doing and hurried over, taking Lu Jin with him. For no other reason than to support the scene.

She has heard that Lin Xiangxing’s husband’s family is not a good person, and Xiangxing is a boring gourd. It is impossible for her to tell her husband’s family that she and Princess Qingping are in love, otherwise would her husband’s family dare to bully her?

Since she doesn't want to say anything, let her man figure it out.

Perhaps Princess Qingping is nothing to scholars, but what about the county magistrate? Even though he is not a big official, he is now the official who can decide Xu Hongda's fate.

Grandma Xiangxing’s birthday is tomorrow, but when she came to Lin Xiangxing’s house, there were already many people in the yard, some of whom were her uncles and aunts, and some of whom wanted to make friends with Lin Xiaoman and want to have a good relationship with her.

, can say a few nice words in front of Lin Xiaoman.

As soon as Lin Xiaoman entered the courtyard, someone shouted loudly: "The princess is here, the princess is here."

"Yeah, the adults are here too."

As the voice fell, everyone in the yard stepped aside, revealing Xu Hongda who was surrounded by several aunts asking questions.

Xu Hongda naturally heard the shouting. He knew that Princess Qingping had come out of Hedong Village, but he did not expect that Princess Qingping would come in person.

Especially when he heard that the adults were coming, he was even more at a loss.

Who is your lord? Do people in the village call you lord when they see an errand? Or is it really an official?

Turning his head to look over, Xu Hongda immediately wanted to kneel down. As a scholar who studied in the academy, he had personally seen the county magistrate inspecting the academy, so he naturally recognized Lu Jin.

He just didn't expect Lu Jin to appear in Hedong Village and come to his wife's natal home.

Seeing him chatting and laughing freely with the villagers, it can be seen that he is quite familiar with the villagers. He also wants to go up and chat for a few words.

When Lin Xiangxing saw Lin Xiaoman, she wanted to get up from the chair and come over. Lin Xiaoman took a few steps and pushed her back, "Don't worry about it. I heard from Aunt Guihua that it's difficult for you to sit in this fetus. Please ask the doctor."

Have you read it?"

Lin Xiangxing smiled, "I've seen it. I haven't come back before because I was afraid of the fetal gas. I finally came back after the fetus was seated straight."

Someone brought a chair for Lin Xiaoman to sit on, and Lin Xiaoman sat down next to Lin Xiangxing. He looked at her belly with joy in his eyes. Lin Xiangxing took her hand and put it on her belly.

"Just touch it if you want. The little guy will kick someone in his belly."

Lin Xiaoman moved his hand on Lin Xiangxing's belly, and suddenly felt a impact on his palm. He immediately retracted his hand as if frightened, making Lin Xiangxing chuckle, "Don't be afraid, the little guy is saying hello to his aunt.

What?"

Xiang Xingnai coughed nearby and whispered, "I'm so bad."

Lin Xiangxing paid no attention to her. Ever since Lin Xiaoman became the county head and then the princess, the attitude of her grandma and her family towards them has changed drastically.

In the past, I always wanted to let their family use money to support the family, but now I always want to buy things to please them, because I am afraid that the mother and daughter will say something unpleasant in front of Lin Xiaoman, and Lin Xiaoman will not help their family make money.

Lin Xiaoman glanced at Grandma Xiangxing, smiled and called out, "Grandma..."

Grandma Xiangxing suddenly became mute. After a while, Lin Xiaoman turned her eyes back to Lin Xiangxing, and then she knelt down on the ground with a plop, "Oh, Princess, don't blame me, I just have a bad mouth.

No other meaning."
