When the two of them were some distance away from their house, Xiao Hanzheng woke Shi Qingluo up.

She got down from his back and felt much more energetic.

Looking at the sweat on Xiao Hanzheng's forehead, she felt a little guilty and took out her handkerchief and wiped his sweat. "Thank you for your hard work, my husband."

Her little husband seemed to have carried her for almost an hour.

Needless to say, he was quite fit.

Xiao Hanzheng's eyes were filled with a smile as he allowed her to wipe his sweat. "Of course. Who asked me to be your husband?"

A husband carrying his wife was a man's way.

Shi Qingluo chuckled. "I'm proud to have a husband like you."

Xiao Hanzheng couldn't help but laugh. "Then I'll thank you, my wife!"

The two of them chatted and laughed as they returned home.

Seeing the two of them return, Mother Xiao and her two other children heaved a sigh of relief.

Mother Xiao asked worriedly, "Are you alright?"

She had initially wanted to follow them to the county town, but her daughter-in-law said that she would be fine and didn't need her to come along.

Xiao Hanzheng said, "I'm fine, you don't need to worry, Mother."

Mother Xiao was relieved. "It's good that you're fine. Go wash your faces, we'll prepare the dishes."

"Alright!" Xiao Hanzheng nodded.

He and Shi Qingluo washed their faces and returned to their rooms to rest for a while.

After dinner, the two of them held hands and went out for a walk to digest their food.

Seeing the two of them leaving with a goose, a smile appeared on Mother Xiao's face.

Xiao Baili looked at the backs of the two of them and the goose and felt a sense of warmth. "Brother and sister-in-law have such a good relationship."

Mother Xiao nodded. "That's true. Your sister-in-law is a good person and your brother cherishes his blessings."

She added, "Our family will get better and better."

Ever since her daughter-in-law married into the family and her son woke up, she didn't have to worry about her family anymore.

Other mothers-in-law might not be pleased about it, but she enjoyed relying on her son and daughter-in-law.

Xiao Baili's eyes were filled with joy. "Yes, the days we are enjoying now are things I didn't dare to imagine in the past. With my big brother and sister-in-law around, our family is getting better."

When they were in the old residence, they wouldn't dare to imagine the life they had now.

Recently, she and Xiao Erlang have been visiting their new home every day. The more they looked at it, the more they liked and looked forward to it.

They were finally going to have a real home of their own.

It wasn't that they didn't like this dilapidated courtyard, but the memories they had left behind weren't that good.

After two days, Xiao Hanzheng had a discussion with the chief and their assistants in the nearby village and they came to a consensus.

The saltpetre mine on the mountain shall be mined by people from several villages.
