Chapter 1 In May, Langshan is shrouded in mist and fog, and the air is humid. When the mist dissipates, you can see a few people on the mountain carrying bamboo baskets. They have all come up the mountain early in the morning to pick tea leaves. Langshan has beautiful scenery, but because

Chapter 163
"Mom! I want to find you a wife!"
"What?!" Qingshan's mother was stunned.
...
Although Qingshan was young, he was very good at keeping secrets. He promised Jiang Yu not to reveal that he liked Lang Ying to anyone, and he really didn't let out a single word.
Therefore, this was the first time Qingshan's family had learned that he actually had a girl he had liked for a long time down the mountain.
What? Not a girl, but a divorced woman with two children?
No way! I absolutely refuse!
Just as Qingshan's elderly mother was about to explode, she heard her son clinging to her leg and wailing—
"Mom! Go to the village and ask around! Lang Ying is really a good woman!"
"She didn't want a divorce herself; it was her ex-husband who was a complete jerk!"
"What? Lang Ying? She's the secretary of Jiang Xiaoman's tea cooperative?" Qingshan's mother's eyes widened.
"Oh dear, what secretary? They call that the Secretary-General! He's only one rank below the Vice President, but he's still an official." Qingshan couldn't help but feel sorry for his sweetheart.
There's a huge difference between a secretary and a general secretary; can they be the same?
He wouldn't allow anyone to insult Lang Ying's achievements at work!
Unexpectedly, his explanation only made his mother angrier, and she grabbed a half-finished shoe sole from the side and slapped it at him.
He was hitting and cursing at the same time.
"Have you been eating too much bee droppings? What kind of delusional thinking is this in the middle of the night?"
"Lang Ying has such a promising daughter! She can be an official, make money, manage a household, and take care of children. She's an exceptionally good daughter. Why would she even look at a kid like you?"
Good heavens!
Mother, are you my mother or Yingzi's mother?
How can you speak so disparagingly of your own son?
Halfway through the fight, Qingshan's mother also became somewhat discouraged, let out a heavy sigh, and sat back down in her chair.
Of course she knew that Lang Ying was a rare and good daughter-in-law.
There's no need to inquire in the village; these days, people in this old mountain valley often mention Jiang Xiaoman and his subordinate Lang Ying.
Jiang Xiaoman is quite far away from them, but Lang Ying has genuinely secured opportunities for many left-behind mothers who have no source of income to do odd jobs and earn money.
Not to mention those far away, just in their old mountain valley, several wives regularly go to the tea cooperative to help out. They usually stay for a few days or ten days or so, living at Lang Ying's house. After finishing their work, they take their wages home.
The most someone ever brought back was over two thousand yuan, enough for the whole family's living expenses for two months.
That's not all. Lang Ying also taught them how to make the best-looking tea cakes so they could fetch a good price. She also taught them how to process wild vegetables to get a higher grade and a higher price. It was as if she was trying every possible way to help them make money.
In the old mountain valley, people are even more grateful to Lang Ying than to Jiang Xiaoman herself.
How could such a kind and capable daughter-in-law end up with her foolish son?
Qingshan's mother looked up at her youngest son, who was crying with tears streaming down his face, and couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.
She was willing to shamelessly go to their door and beg, and whether or not it worked out, at least she had tried and wouldn't regret it.
But what about the son?
If your son falls for such an outstanding woman as Lang Ying, will he ever be able to find someone else attractive in the future?
After holding the shoe sole and pondering for a moment, Qingshan's mother solemnly announced her decision...
The next day, Lang Ying declined Director Hu's offer and focused on finishing her scenes on set. After eating her boxed lunch, she was about to go home to change clothes and pickle some radishes from the garden to make some spicy and sour radish slices when she received a call from Jiang Yu.
Lang Ying thought Jiang Yu was calling to invite her and her family of three to a pig-slaughtering feast.
In the month leading up to the Lunar New Year, villagers received phone calls for only two reasons: either they were invited to a pig-slaughtering feast, or they were being asked to pay debts.
Lang Ying had no debts outside, so the only remaining reason was to eat the pig-slaughtering feast.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Yu asked her hesitantly when she would be back, as he wanted to take some of the women from the old mountain valley to her home.
"I just finished filming here and I'm going home right away." Lang Ying was completely confused.
When they got home, they discovered that the two leading the group were Qingshan's mother and Huiying, the matchmaker from the old mountain valley.
Behind the two was Qing Shan, whose face was already flushed red and whose eyes were darting around.
Is there anything she doesn't understand?
However, since the person has already arrived, and was brought by Jiang Yu, we should invite them inside first to discuss anything, lest they block the doorway and cause a scene, which would be unpleasant for both of us.
Lang Ying had always assumed that Qing Shan had brought his mother here to propose marriage to her, but little did she know—
"Yingzi, we're already acquaintances, so I won't bother with those empty platitudes."
"I called Sister-in-law Huiying here today because I want to discu
