?Chapter 183: Chapter 183: Helping Relatives(5)_1 Chapter 183: Chapter 183: Helping Relatives(5)_1 “Sister, brother-in-law.” As they were talking, Guo Shuanzhu and his wife Guo Zhongkui came over.

“Why are you coming in the afternoon?” Guo Zhongkui, an honest man, saw Guo Huiniang and asked straight away with a reprimanding tone.

“Sister, brother-in-law.” Lian Zhen, another honest woman, was all smiles as she saw Guo Huiniang and her group, behind them, a shy little girl trailed.

“Meimei, come to your auntie.” Guo Huiniang joyfully spoke to the little girl.

“Auntie.” The little girl who seemed to be only six or seven, all shy and bashful, looked at Guo Huiniang.

“Here, have some candy.” Guo Huiniang took out a piece of candy from her bundle and offered it to the little girl.

Guo Meimei apprehensively accepted the candy, then hid behind Guo Zhongkui.

“Don’t just stand there. Everyone, come inside.” Mrs. He greeted everyone.

Seeing that there were still things on the ox cart, Guo Shuanzhu proactively went to bring them inside the house.

Yu Shao’en and another man named Kong kept watch outside, perched on the ox cart.

“Father, mother, brother, sister-in-law, how are the ducks at home?” As soon as Guo Huiniang settled down, she eagerly asked about the situation at home.

“More than half died, the rest were moved out in time, they are stable now.” Guo’s old father answered honestly.

“That’s good.” Guo Huiniang nodded.

“Look at ducks.” Yanzhi said softly.

“Little brother, I’ll take you to see them later,” Guo Meimei whispered back.

“Sister, look at ducks together.” Yanzhi’s eyes squinted with joy.

“Yanzhi, your uncle will take you and your sister to see the ducks.” Who would really let the two children go to see the ducks? Guo Shuanzhu volunteered to take the children to see the ducks.

“Coincidentally, uncle, aunt, I also want to see the ducks.” Lin Ziyin said with a smile.

“Since younger sister wants to see, let’s all go check it out too.” Lin Changshu knew she had many ideas. When Lin Ziyin said she wanted to accompany them to the Guo’s village, he guessed she must have something in mind.

“Not even a sip of water has been touched.” He sighs, feeling bad.

As they were talking, a child’s cry came from the inner room. Lian Zhen went in and came out carrying a boy.

The boy looked about the same age as Yanzhi. Seeing so many people in the room, he shyly stopped crying and began secretly studying the people in the room with his eyes.

“Brother, have some candy.” Yanzhi took out a few candies from his pocket, stood on his tiptoes, and tried to hand them to the boy. The boy lowered his head and struggled to come down, Lian Zhen obliged and put him down.

With the candies in their hand, the two little ones quickly started playing together.

“You can have tea at any time, uncle, I’ve never seen a flock of ducks before.” Lin Ziyin put on a childlike act.

“Father, we are all family, there’s no need for so much formality?” Guo Huiniang argued with a laugh.

Old man Guo saw that they were determined to go, so he nodded his head, agreeing to take them all there together.

“Let’s put away the things first.” Guo Huiniang said, “Sister-in-law, brother, with these two pieces of cloth, could you make clothes for everyone in the family?”

Lian Zhen looked up and saw the fine cotton cloth on the table, she wanted to say something but didn’t. Even though both pieces of cloth were of good quality and color, there were too many people in the family. Surely, it’s not enough for everyone. If it’s really not enough, she and her husband could just do without.

“This is the cloth for the children. This is for father and mother.” Guo Huiniang took out a few more pieces of fabric from underneath, which were not cut yet.

It turned out she had thought of everything beforehand.

“Thank you, sister.” Lian Zhen’s face turned red, feeling a bit embarrassed for her earlier worries.
