Linxi Village isn't big, and all the villagers are staying at home.
Those living nearby heard the sound of firecrackers and came out to take a look.
Seeing it was the Wei Family, who wouldn't be surprised?
But it's not appropriate to visit when others have happy events.
If they go, the host has to invite them to the feast, but everyone's tight on supplies and the food is limited. You can't just go and eat for free.
The Hu Family is far away, but Mrs. Wang vaguely heard the noise.
With a child crying all day at home, she could neither eat nor sleep well, and had become quite haggard.
She gave a harsh look at Mrs. Xiao, who was boiling water in the kitchen.
"Why are you wasting firewood like this? Using hot water to wash diapers?"
Hatred flashed in Mrs. Xiao's eyes.
"I haven't even finished my confinement. How can I touch cold water? If mother-in-law doesn't help with the diapers and that little wench doesn't come back, what am I supposed to do?"
