Chapter 48: Chapter 48 Investigating Zhong Xiaoxiao

Looking at the bright signature, the three big characters "Zhong Xiaoxiao" made Chu Lian’s hands start to tremble in shock.

How could this name be the same as Yang Ming’s wife, who had a bad reputation? Was it a coincidence? Or were they the same person?

"Uncle Wang, have someone check out this girl’s background! I want details."

Chu Lian could no longer hold back, anxious to know the truth!

Earlier at the Bookstore, this girl had clearly written her name as Xiaohan. How could it have changed to Zhong Xiaoxiao now?

How could such a coincidence happen? If it really was her, what was he supposed to do with these budding feelings of love? Yang Ming was a good brother of his!

Although it seemed that Yang Ming did not like his wife, what if he hadn’t seen his own wife? If he knew his wife was this girl, could he still let go?

Chu Lian, a man of seven feet, started to worry about matters of the heart.

Xiaoxiao had no idea she was being investigated! But no matter how much probing was done, it was useless; after all, she was using her real identity, and there was no way any discrepancies could emerge.

As soon as she got home, Xiaoxiao started reporting to her family, updating her family had already become her habit.

"Father, the pickled cabbage deal worked out, we’ll be producing about three jars daily. It’s not much, but it still means an income of nine taels a month! That’s enough for our family’s food and drink!"

The family was delighted to hear about the income of nine taels. Xiaoxiao was truly impressive. Ever since she had married into the family, not only had they stopped accumulating debt, but they also had three meals a day, and every room in the house was warm.

"Hmm, okay, you handle the household matters, father is at ease!"

"I plan to have my older and second sisters-in-law take full charge of making pickled cabbage in the future; no more embroidery work, it strains the eyes and earns little!"

"Third sister-in-law, don’t worry, I will do it properly. I may not be good at other things, but I can definitely exert strength, right, older sister-in-law?" the second sister-in-law immediately agreed.

"Mmm, third sister-in-law, rest assured!"

"Mmm, my own family, I am indeed reassured. Next up, I plan to gather cabbages with fourth brother in the village!"

Xiaoxiao mentioned her plan to gather cabbages, it was something that had to be done.

"Gather cabbages?"

"Yeah, now that our family is making pickled cabbage and the other households haven’t started yet, we should buy up the cabbages first to avoid competition later! We’ll get through these three months and then plant our own next year."

"Buying cabbages can also help our family connect with the villagers, especially with the New Year approaching and everyone needing money. It’s also a way to help them."

"What third daughter-in-law said is right, you’ve been here for about twenty days now. Running about all day, people in the village still don’t recognize you, this event is a good opportunity to get to know the villagers better."

As soon as mother-in-law heard about building relationships, she immediately spoke up, truly worried about Xiaoxiao’s reputation in the village. People outside had not stopped discussing Xiaoxiao’s faults!

Xiaoxiao herself didn’t care what others thought of her, but living in this household, she couldn’t allow her family to suffer any slights, so it was essential to maintain good relations and properly establish her reputation.

"Third sister-in-law, what do you think older brother and second brother can do?"

The elder brother, Yang Chun, couldn’t sit still either. Now that the women in the house were earning money, here he was, the eldest son, doing nothing.

"Yeah, third sister-in-law, what can we do more?" the second brother, Yang Gang, followed up.

"Big brother, second brother, don’t worry, there will be work for you when the time comes. Just rest until the end of the month, and next month I’ll have tasks ready for you, don’t complain about being tired then!"

"How could we!"

Old Man Yang was very pleased to see his family so harmonious. All was well, only his youngest son was missing!
