The lady heard their conversation and felt sad. This woman was the daughter-in-law of an old woman who often helped out in her courtyard. Normally, she didn't show much respect for her elders, but at this moment, she was teaching her child not to be affected by her daughter's influence.

Aunt Lin saw that her expression was unpleasant and quickly comforted, "It will be fine in a few days, whose family won't be able to live? Your tofu is cheap and delicious. Many people come to buy it and many people buy it. Who would care about such things? "

When the lady heard her words, she burst out into laughter. Auntie Lin was baffled. She had comforted her, so why was she laughing all of a sudden? Don't get too worked up, stupid. Aunt Lin even reached out her hand to touch her forehead. "Child, you haven't suffered too much of a shock, have you?"

The little girl wanted to tell her reason for laughing, but she thought that if Auntie Lin knew the meaning of "eating tofu", she would probably blame her, so she could only give up.

After this experience, the little girl was a lot more relaxed. People are forgetful, and the things she did were not heinous, so in the future, when she did more good things, she would have less people following her and not letting go. This was the same reason as the rich liked to do charity in the modern era.

The matter of the adoption of the dog could be put aside for now. The lady then went to the village to help out her family. If they didn't want to continue, then the lady's original request would be to use silver to make up for the lack of time. Unexpectedly, those women were all willing to continue working in her house, and some even specially comforted her.

It seemed like not everyone held any ill intentions toward her. The lady in red felt her heart warm, and she felt that her idea of escaping was too naive.

Since the staff did not go on strike, Lady Piaomiao informed them that they would be making tofu as usual the next day. Many of them had lost their livelihood during these two days of work, and quite a number of them came to the village to inquire about what had happened to Jiao Niang's family.

Some people just added oil to the fire by talking about it. When it was spread around, it would change. Some people said that the lady who had failed in her love affair had instead framed the mother-in-law, causing the mother-in-law to be sent into exile. Some people said that the lady who had failed in her love affair had been sent into exile, making the mother-in-law an evil person.

For a time, there were many versions of this matter in the county, making it difficult for people to guess the truth. They could only give up. Moreover, even if these things were true, what did it have to do with earning money?

On the first day, there were still people who did not know about it, but after hearing the shout, they found out that they could eat tofu again. Every day, there was an endless stream of people coming and going from the Lin Family Village, and there were smart villagers who set up stalls under the banyan tree at the entrance of the village.

The clan head was someone who could see into the future. The Lin Clan Village only had a population of sixty over households, so when did they ever witness such a flourishing clan? In the future, there would be more people making tofu in the village and more people might come to buy tofu. If that was the case, it would be easier for the village to earn money. As he thought this, he put two buckets of water in the village, which were filled with large clean spoonfuls of water.

The weather was getting hotter and hotter. It was not easy to buy tofu from a distance of several dozen miles. When some men were ugly, they started off from home carrying several kilograms of tofu, and then went back carrying the tofu that they exchanged for. The tofu weighed the tofu, and sometimes, when the cute girl looked at them, she would feel that the lives of the people here were too bitter.

In her previous life, she had been born in the countryside and had never experienced such hardships. Every time those people came to change their tofu, they would wait under the tree outside. When the weather was hot, someone would be bare-chested, and the calluses on their shoulders would be black and hard. It was very scary.

Every time he came, he would smile and mimic a monkey play, which would make everyone laugh out loud. When he was changing the tofu, he would tell Lin Yang that he would be given a few extra pieces, and the little girl would learn that he had three children in his house, all of whom were very young, and that his wife and children were waiting for him to make some money and return home. His house was very far away, and it would take him seven to eight hours to get to Lin Village.

Seeing how pitiful his words were, the little girl got Lin Yang to give her a few more pieces. The little man smiled as he bowed and expressed his gratitude. Then, under the worried gaze of the little girl, he left with a load on his shoulders.

The man came once a week, but once, two weeks later, the lady asked around and found out that the man was tired and hungry on the way home. He fell down the hill, broke his arm, and broke his tofu. Even after returning home, they didn't dare to tell their wife that they had been unable to work for two days before their wife found them. Only then did the two of them borrow the money to look at their wounds.

Asking about the man's family, those who knew sighed and recounted his past: The little man's name was Cheng Ying-zhong, his father's generation had fled to other places to beg for food, but somehow he had come back to the village with his wife and newborn child. The house had long since collapsed, and Cheng Ying-zhong had built his own house, just enough for the two of them to live in and cook in the open air. In order to earn money to support his family, Cheng Huzhong went to the county as a footman, but he was small, didn't have enough strength, so he didn't do much good. His wife went into the wasteland at home, carrying a little kid on her back, and after two years of this, Cheng Huzhong somehow got news from somewhere, borrowed some beans to come to the Lin Village to exchange for tofu, and then sold them off.

As the man spoke, he also sighed. He had probably never seen anyone suffer so much. She thought that she had lived a miserable life, but she did not expect that so many people were struggling in their own lives. She could not find a way out even if she wanted to.

After asking Cheng Huzhong about his character and character, she told him that he was hardworking and was a member of the Gu family. Once she knew what was going on, she asked some acquaintances to come to his house to ask if they would like to come over and help her watch the pigsty.

This job was pretty easy. He only prepared three meals a day for Little Pig, his room, food, and money. It was like a pie falling from the sky. He was so anxious that his hair turned white. When he heard that his mistress wanted him to help raise pigs, he could even drag the family along with him. After hesitating for a moment, he asked his wife to pack up their things and bring a pair of children with him to Lin Village.

His family was already destitute, and there was nothing much to bring with them. Only the pots used to cook were more valuable, but with the lady's support, the couple packed their children up and carried them to the Lin Village empty-handed.
