The villagers heard that Lin Jiaxin had returned from the Capital city alone, and they all came to his house to see him.
The first to arrive was, of course, Aunt Wang, but accompanying her was not Lan Hua, instead it was her daughter-in-law, Sister-in-law Changqing. It turns out Sister-in-law Changqing was from the same hometown as Lady Liu, and furthermore, she was the niece of Lady Liu's good friend!
As soon as she saw Sister-in-law Changqing, Lady Liu's eyes lit up, excitedly and enviously holding Aunt Wang's hand, "Sister, you're going to be a grandmother!"
Aunt Wang's eyes crinkled into a smile, happily nodding her head, "Yes, and I have to thank you for it. If you hadn't played matchmaker, I wouldn't have found such a wonderful daughter-in-law!"
