I Became the Prime Minister’s Adored Wife after Transmigrating

Chapter 24 The Ji Family

"Mother?" Ji Zhao turned around slightly, and lowered his head in shame.

The original owner was really too stupid to be tricked by Zhao Xian.

Thinking that the original owner gave all the money stolen from the Shen family to Zhao Xian, Ji Zhao's heart ached terribly!

She strongly suspected that the original owner had Stockholm syndrome!

Zhao Lanhua suddenly took her right hand and looked at it carefully.

"In the future, you need to be clever when hitting people. Look, your hands are swollen." Zhao Lanhua said earnestly.

"I see, mother." Ji Zhao smiled lightly, feeling much more relaxed.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law quickened their pace and finally arrived at Shiliu Village at the beginning of Sishi.

The location of Shiliu Village is a bit remote compared to Shanghe Village. More importantly, Shiliu Village is built on the mountain, and there is no water source nearby, and cracks appeared in the dry fields of every household.

All edible things in the village have been dug up.

Ji's house is located at the end of the village. It is a low three-room loess house surrounded by fences.

There are two pomegranate trees planted in front of the gate.

The pomegranate tree, which should have been flourishing, was too dry and listless, looking very desolate.

ahem——

A thick and heavy cough came from the room on the left, interrupting Ji Zhao's thoughts.

"It seems that your grandfather's illness is still not cured," Zhao Lanhua frowned and sighed sadly.

"Yeah." Ji Zhao pushed open the fence door, and called out with a smile, "Grandpa, grandma, are you at home?"

"Yes!" Xie, who was packing firewood in the kitchen, hurried out, "A Tao, is that you?"

"Well, Grandma, I'm back." Ji Zhao smiled politely, and asked softly, "Grandma, my mother-in-law is here too, please help me entertain her? Leave the work in the kitchen to me."

"Hey, mother-in-law is here too?" Mrs. Xie caught a glimpse of Zhao Lanhua who was holding a pastry in her hand, and smiled so hard that she couldn't see her teeth, "Hurry up, hurry up, come in and sit down!"

Mrs. Xie warmly welcomed Zhao Lanhua into the back room.

The back room of Ji's house is very simple, with only two faded red benches and a square table with twisted corners.

"Mother-in-law, there is nothing good at home, there is only such a small amount of white sugar left, are you going to drink it?" Mrs. Xie quickly poured Zhao Lanhua a glass of sugar water.

Even the large porcelain bowl filled with sugar water was missing corners.

The Ji family is really poor.

"You are too polite," Zhao Lanhua sat down with a smile, and put the two packs of pastries in her hand on the table, "I don't know what kind of pastries you like, so I took two packs of sesame crisps , try something new!"

"Oh, my mother-in-law, you are too polite..." Mrs. Xie said with a smile, "We are already very grateful that you brought A Tao back to us... If the old man was not very sick, I would not be willing to do so Let A Tao marry someone a long time ago..."

Mrs. Xie suddenly began to wipe away tears, and choked up sadly, "Yesterday, I also heard that A Tao did some things that were sorry for Shen San, and it was because we taught him nothing... But we have already spent all that money to see the old man. Two or two betrothal gifts..."

The corners of Zhao Lanhua's eyes couldn't help twitching twice.

It seems that the old lady has misunderstood.

"You misunderstood, I didn't ask for money." Zhao Lanhua hurriedly said to appease, "A Tao is very good, and she didn't do anything to apologize to my third child. Those are gossiping women deliberately telling stories. Don't Listen to their nonsense."

"Really? Really?" Xie stopped crying, his expression was very surprised.
