"I still had time to bring it over, and then my mother-in-law started urging me. Hehe..."

If it were someone else, the mother-in-law would definitely stop her daughter-in-law from taking beans back to her parents' home.

Keeping a daughter-in-law out is just like keeping a thief out.

But Tuoba Xian, truly was a model mother-in-law of our time.

Mrs. Sun said, "I'll send the pork and vermicelli soup to the back kitchen first. Xiaohua and Xiaoduo are cooking rice there, it should be almost done soon. We'll have dinner together later."

Yang Ruqing nodded.

"Mother, when I came in just now, I saw you and Mrs. Han crying. What's wrong?" Yang Ruqing asked again.

Sun shi was startled, and said, "Are you talking about the illness of Jade Branch's man? Ah!"

"What's wrong with him? Wasn't he always frail?" Yang Ruqing asked.

>

Sun said, "That's right. Getting sick every other day. This time, with one autumn rain and a chill, we wear a single layer of clothing, maybe adding another jacket in the morning and evening at most, but he's already wearing three vests!"

"That way, she's still sick. These days she says her throat hurts and she has a fever. She can't eat even a few bites of porridge, and she's been lying in bed for several days."

"Well, his mother just told me about this. She's worried that winter will be really tough and she's afraid it might be a case of sending the elderly to their graves..."

Upon hearing Sun's words, Yang Ruqing also furrowed her brow.

This man probably has a weakened immune system. He caught a cold because of the changing seasons, so he came down with a cold.

This cold, there are several kinds, viral ones, and many other types.

In modern times, there are medications for every type of cold. But in this ancient countryside, no matter what kind of cold you had, it was all classified as wind-cold. Then, they would get some Chinese medicine and simmer it to drink, starting a long and slow treatment process...

As for this aspect, Yang Ruqing doesn't have such extensive supernatural abilities. What she can do is to focus on her diet in daily life.

When it comes to improving your family's immunity, one aspect is a diet high in protein and the other is some small details in daily life.

“Life and death are determined by fate, wealth and honor by heaven. As for the Han family’s affairs, all we can do is let Yuzhi come over to cook, and leave the rest to nature.” she said to Sun shi.

Sun Shi nodded, “That’s right, Qing'er. Just now Old Madam Yu also said that this latter half of the year is relatively quiet, and after a while, she will be planting oilseed rape and wheat, which will take a few days.”

“Other times, I could let their old man come to the construction site to help out. I felt sorry for their son at the time, so I readily agreed. This... this isn't a big deal, right?”

Sun shi was a little embarrassed.

Yang Ruqing was slightly taken aback. Her mother was truly the kindest person in the world.

She then smiled and nodded, "Doing these small errands, Mother, you can use your connections to sell favors."

“However, when it comes to the masons and carpenters who do the heavy lifting, I think my father and my uncle would be better suited to make those decisions.” she said.

Mrs. Sun nodded repeatedly, "Oh, I understand, I understand, I remember."

Yang Ruqing smiled happily.

"Alright then, you remember to eat this pork and rice noodles with Xiao Hua together. I'm going back for dinner too, see you tomorrow."

When a series of deafening gunshots echoed from the open fields across the road, construction on the Sun family's new house officially began.

This is a big deal, so everyone – the craftsmen, the helpers, the cooks, and even family members – all came to watch.

Yang Ruqing and Xiaojie supported Granny Sun on either side as they came out to watch. A smile was plastered across the old woman's face.

Many women came to greet Old Mrs. Sun with well wishes, and Old Mrs. Sun was so delighted that she couldn't close her mouth wide enough.

Over there, Da Sun and Sun were carrying baskets lined with red cloth. Inside the baskets were celebratory pastries and other snacks.

“Come, come, everyone, eat some cake and snacks!”

Big Sun grabbed people's hands and shouted whenever she saw them.

This is also a custom in this area, just like when the bride enters the house, the matchmaker scatters candies.

All the women gathered around Dà Sūn and Sūn, vying to grab the food.

>

Here, Yang Ruohong asked Old Madam Sun, "Ah-Po, are you tired? If you're tired, go back to the house first?"

>

Mrs. Sun shook her head, "Not tired, I'm enjoying myself."

Yang Ruqing curled her lips and glanced at Xia Jie, saying: "My grandmother usually doesn't go out the door. Today, she is truly happy."

"Alright, we'll keep you company and watch the excitement for a while longer."

Across, in the field of vision, men were digging the foundation there. The local geomancer who was responsible for looking after the feng shui had also been invited to come over.

He was holding a compass in his hand, directing everyone on where to dig and which direction to face.

Then, Yang Ruqing saw her uncle carrying a red package and walked over there. Following the instructions of the Earth Immortal, she carefully placed the red package in one corner.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate! ?

He held a handful of earth in each hand and sprinkled some rice over the red cloth bundle. Finally, he stood up.

Then, other people came up and poured the pre-prepared stones into the dug ditch. Then they backfilled the ditch, tamped it down, and leveled it out solidly.

Here's the translation, keeping the HTML tags: Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

"Sister, what kind of precious treasure is inside my father's red cloth bag?" Xiaojie blinked her curious big eyes and asked Yang Ruqing.

Yang Ruqing shook her head, "I don't know either."

Elder Sun, supported by two people in the middle, said: “It's wrapped with copper coins, symbolizing good health, fortune and prosperity.”

"Oh!" Both sisters nodded simultaneously, hoping for good luck in everything.

After looking for a while, Yang Ruqing felt that Lao Tai Sun's hand was getting cold.

“Grandma, the wind is picking up, and we’ve seen enough. Let’s go back first,” she suggested.

Old Mrs. Sun nodded, "Good."

>As soon as they entered the house, Yang Ruqing quickly brewed a cup of hot tea for Old Mrs. Sun to hold in her hands and warm herself. She also told Xiaojie to fetch an outer garment for the elderly woman to put on.

Old Mrs. Sun looked at the two sisters who were attending to her with smiles of love and contentment on her face.

When she was young, her neighbors had sons, but she only had two daughters.

Thinking about when I'm old, by then no one will help me out, it'll just be women who can't make their own decisions.

Unexpectedly, both of my daughters are more capable than many other people's sons, and they are very filial.

My dear daughter, and my dear son-in-law, and the granddaughters are all lovely.

Sunzi Da Jie is steady and honest.

My grandson Daan is promising.

The daughter-in-law and son-in-law are quite the renowned couple, famous for miles around.

>

Outside, it's so lively with constant bursts of firecrackers. They must be building a new house!

Grandma Sun felt that in her lifetime, living to this point was enough.

When I was young, I ate all the hardships that one should eat.

In old age, one has enjoyed all the blessings one was entitled to.

In this lifetime, that's enough, be content!

Even if she went now, she would go with a smile, because she knew her descendants would be successful!
