After being reborn, I have seven older sisters.

Song Chuntao realized she had said the wrong thing again and quickly explained, "Mom, you know that's not what I meant!"

Liu Yan'e waved her hand, "Alright, I'm not going to argue with you anymore."

Then she recounted how Chunsheng and Chunmiao had gone to the Agricultural Bureau the day before, and said that Chunsheng had already written a letter of complaint for them, and all they needed to do was have Feng Jinshuo sign it.

However, Liu Yan'e made no mention of the details of Chunsheng and his companion's encounter with the livestock farm in Liutiaozi Village on the road, or how they got to the Agricultural Bureau.

First of all, she felt that the things in between were too complicated and tedious, and if she talked too much about them, she would probably confuse Chun Tao and her husband.

Furthermore, she felt that before the issue of her eldest son-in-law Feng Jinshuo's job was completely resolved, it was best to keep as few people as possible aware of matters involving middlemen, in order to avoid any unforeseen complications.

When Feng Jinshuo learned that her job was about to be secured, she was so excited that she couldn't utter a single word.

After a long pause, he finally opened his mouth, grinning sheepishly, and said, "I was planning to take advantage of my free time these next couple of days to visit that colleague! I didn't expect my brother and seventh sister to get it done so quickly!"

Song Chuntao was even more excited. She immediately stood up, opened her arms, and hugged Chunsheng and Chunmiao tightly, saying, "I'm not good at saying nice things, so I'll just bow to you both!"

After she finished speaking, she was about to bow to Chunsheng and Chunmiao.

The two were so frightened that they quickly reached out to help her up, afraid that the older sister would really bow to them.

Sitting to the side, Liu Yan'e and Song Mantun both looked at their children with wry smiles, not intending to stop them.

They believe that it is a good thing for their children to help each other, but this help should not be given for nothing. Even saying thank you or bowing is a way of showing gratitude.

Only in this way can we prevent the givers from feeling disheartened and the recipients from feeling that everything is their due.

After Chunsheng and Chunmiao helped their eldest sister Chuntao back to her seat, Chunsheng smiled somewhat awkwardly and said:

"Big sister, you're being too polite. We're all family. Helping with this little thing is nothing. As long as Brother Jin Suo can go back to work at the commune's animal husbandry facility and your lives improve, our parents and the whole family will be happy."

Chunsheng smiled and said, "Yes, eldest sister, actually helping you with this is not only for you, but also for our parents. If you are not doing well, the two old people will be uneasy all day long."

Song Chuntao and Feng Jinshuo knew, of course, that their mother and father had always cared about them and would do their best to help them in any way they could.

At this moment, Liu Yan'e said, "Chunsheng, take out what you've written and have your brother-in-law sign it!"

In fact, Chunsheng had already put the letter of complaint in his pocket, along with a prepared pen.

After Feng Jinshuo signed the letter of complaint, Liu Yan'e immediately reminded him, "Before you return to work at the commune's veterinary station, you absolutely mustn't tell anyone about the letter of complaint, understand?"

Feng Jinshuo quickly agreed, "Mom, don't worry, I know how serious this is, and Chuntao and I won't tell anyone."

Song Chuntao immediately assured her mother, "Mom, even if I'm stupid, I would never tell anyone about something as important as Jin Suo's job."

Liu Yan'e nodded gently. "You two just need to know what's going on. Once this gets out, people might be on guard, and Jin Suo might not be able to go back to the commune's veterinary station!"

After hearing their mother's reminder, Feng Jinshuo and Song Chuntao reiterated their promise not to spread the word.

After telling Chunsheng to put away the letter of complaint, the mother continued, "Your sixth sister Chunzao's wedding date has been moved up to June 22nd, which is the sixth day of the fifth lunar month."

Upon hearing this, Chun Tao quickly looked at Chun Zao and exclaimed with delight, "Great! The day after the Dragon Boat Festival in May is an auspicious day!"

Then she said to her mother, Liu Yan'e, "Mom, when do you need my help with preparing the dowry for Sixth Sister? Just have someone send me a message in advance."

Liu Yan'e smiled at Chun Tao and nodded with great satisfaction.

Although Chun Tao has a lot of faults, there is one good quality that makes her, as a mother, extremely satisfied: Chun Tao's warm heart.

Whether it's her own family or strangers, Chun Tao will always help them sincerely and without a single complaint.

After thinking for a moment, Liu Yan'e continued, "There's no need to rush the dowry preparations. Your sixth sister's new clothes for her wedding day will be bought ready-made by her mother-in-law's family from the supply and marketing cooperative in the county town. We don't need to find someone to make them."

"What I need your help with is just sewing a few new quilts and mattresses. I prepared the new cotton at the end of last year, so I plan to start preparing after the Grain in Ear solar term. Half a month should be enough time."

Song Chuntao nodded and didn't say anything more.

She was very familiar with the process of preparing the bride's dowry and what tasks were involved.

Besides herself, she participated in the weddings of all her younger sisters without missing a single one, and she also participated in almost all the needlework for sewing quilts.

So when her mother asked her to sew a quilt, she immediately knew exactly what she was supposed to do.

At this moment, Liu Yan'e suddenly seemed to remember something and said to Chun Tao, "Also, Fengjiaying is relatively close to Zhangzhuang Village. When you have time, could you go to your second sister's house for me and ask Chunxing to come over soon?"

While his mother was talking to his eldest sister Chuntao, Chunsheng listened quietly from the side.

He hadn't paid much attention to his older sisters' weddings because they were young.

Seeing his mother preparing for his sixth sister's wedding, he thought to himself that it must have been quite a task for his mother to worry so much about each of his previous five sisters' weddings.

Just now, when my mother was telling my eldest sister and brother-in-law about the whistleblower letter, she deliberately omitted some details in order to avoid some unnecessary trouble, and only told them the final result.

Chunsheng was genuinely surprised by his mother's ability to nip problems in the bud and her high level of generalization.

It's a pity that my mother didn't have much schooling. If her family had been a little better off before, and she could have studied for a few more years, she probably wouldn't be suffering in the countryside now, but could be receiving a fixed monthly salary like those retired workers in the city.

Just as Chunsheng's mind was wandering, his eldest niece suddenly ran over and whispered in his ear that his second nephew had found some money on the bookshelf by the windowsill and asked him to go and take a look.

Chunsheng was startled and quickly followed his niece into his room.

His concern wasn't that his nephew would discover the money, but rather that his nephew would take it out and let his mother see it, which would be difficult to explain.

When he entered the house, his second nephew was standing by the window, looking at him with a guilty expression.
