Chapter 5 A life of loneliness and old age

◎ Wrong! That's the fate of the Sea King! ◎

The old lady of the Zhao family has three sons and one daughter in her life.

The daughter died young, leaving only three sons.

The eldest son had settled down in the county long ago, leaving only the second son and the youngest son to accompany her in the village.

Usually, the two daughters-in-law take turns to cook.

Zhou Minglan is the youngest daughter-in-law of the old man.

Now that Zhao Taohua wants to learn how to cook, Zhou Minglan's first reaction is to look at Qian Baoru. If the old lady disagrees, she can't do anything.

Qian Baoru received her gaze, put down her chopsticks and said to Zhao Taohua kindly: "Your neck is injured, let's talk about it after you recover."

The family didn't have much food, but this girl was so greedy.

Zhao Taohua didn't know what the old lady was thinking. This made her feel the warmth of home for the first time, and her heart was immediately filled with warmth.

"Grandma, I'm just slightly injured, it's okay."

Seeing that his daughter was stupid and couldn't understand the old lady's meaning, Zhou Minglan quickly changed the subject and said: "Eat quickly, it's cold, let's talk about cooking later."

"...Okay then." Seeing that they didn't want her to cook, Zhao Taohua could only temporarily give up this idea and think of another way.

The next morning, before dawn, the Zhao family got up early and started to work.

Zhao Taohua, who was used to sleeping late and getting up late in her previous life, was still a little uncomfortable with such a schedule, but in order to better integrate into this big family, she forced herself to get up.

In Dongshan Village, except for the elderly and young children who could not walk, everyone else had to go to the fields to earn centimeters. It stands to reason that the Zhao family had a prosperous male population, and the days they spent in the village should be considered one of the best. Unfortunately, the children born to Zhao Laosi were all unreliable, so that Zhao Laosi's family was notoriously poor in the village.

At this time, Zhou Minglan was pouring hot water into the wash basin. After pouring, he did not forget to test the water temperature. Then he knocked on Zhao Taohua's door with the basin, "Girl, are you up?"

Zhao Taohua had just put on her clothes in the room. When she heard the noise outside, she quickly got off the kang and opened the door. The moment she opened the door, a cool breeze penetrated into her neck, making her shiver.

"Hurry up and wash your face. I'll take you somewhere later." Zhou Minglan said as he walked into the room and put the wash basin on the basin stand. He turned around to look at the messy bedding on the kang and folded the quilt.

"..." Faced with such meticulous care, Zhao Taohua was completely stunned.

Although she has the memory of her original body, many past scenes are not clear.

Before she traveled through time, she also read many period novels. When the heroines in the novels first traveled through time, they were like cabbages in the field, especially pitiful.

And as far as she knows, people of this era have to work to share the worries and solve problems for their families since they were young. Why did everything change when it came to her?
