After all, Xiaoliang was raised by Zhang and Shengxuan, and the couple had feelings for him. Although Xiaoliang was a little naughty when he was young, he became calmer as he grew up. Therefore, Xiaolan had no ill feelings towards him.

After all, men with good looks are popular everywhere. Xiaoliang has good looks, which is a natural advantage.

The next day, Sheng Hao's family came. They couldn't decide what gifts to give Xiao Liang and the old man, so they wanted to refer to what Xiao Lan's family had prepared.

Zhang found an excuse to call Liu out of the house and told her the news she heard from Zhao yesterday.

After hearing this, Liu immediately became distraught.

Zhang had a powerful family, but Liu had nothing. If Cui used the same method to deal with Wang on her, she would definitely not be able to withstand it. Therefore, compared with Zhang's loss of composure yesterday, Liu was no less serious.

Liu came back from outside the house wiping her tears.

"Mom, what's wrong with you?" Xiao Ye and Xiao Tao hurriedly asked their mother.

"What's going on?" Sheng Hao asked puzzledly.

"This is the situation, but now that I know about it, I have to tell you. As for what happened, you can ask yourself when we get home." Zhang said.

After seeing off Sheng Hao's family and returning home, Liu sobbed and told her daughter about Cui's request that Sheng Nuo divorce Wang and marry him another wife.

"Your grandma has always disliked me and wanted to divorce me a long time ago. But your grandfather said that the Sheng family did not have the rule of divorcing a wife and marrying another, so I was not divorced..."

"Now, the rules of the old Sheng family may have to change. If I am divorced, I will have nowhere to go..." Liu hugged her daughter Xiaoye and cried, "Mother, when the time comes, there will be nowhere to go. I can only die. My poor Ye'er, what will you do then?"

When Sheng Hao heard this, he turned his head away.

Liu's reaction was much greater than Zhang's, which was enough to show that both daughters-in-law believed that Cui was definitely capable of doing such a thing. If one daughter-in-law had this reaction, it might be that she was too sensitive, but if both of them were like this, it meant that it was not a problem with the daughter-in-law, but a problem with Cui.

"Dad, if my grandma asked you to divorce my mom, would you agree?" Xiao Ye asked.

"No, your mother and I have been through ups and downs for so many years, and I have never had this idea." Sheng Hao said.

The family of four discussed for a while and agreed that Sheng Hao could not go to Hejian County this time, and Liu, Xiao Ye and Xiao Tao would not go either.

"For Xiaoliang's gift, let's prepare the same as what we prepared for Xiaoyuan. As for the gift for the old man..."

"My family doesn't need to prepare anything." Xiao Ye said.

Liu didn't say anything.

Sheng Hao said, it would be ugly if he didn't give it.

After the family of four discussed for a while, Xiaoye and Xiaotao came with a gift for Xiaoliang.

"Over in Hejian County..."

Before Xiao Lan finished her question, Xiao Ye interrupted, "We haven't prepared anything. We just had enough food. They are not better off than us. We are poor. Even if we rush to socialize with them, they will probably despise us for being shabby. So we might as well not give them anything."

"How could Fourth Uncle agree to this?" Xiao Lan asked.

Speaking of this, Xiao Ye got angry, "He wanted to give it, but what else does the family have? My father said that he would make up for it when life gets better at home."

Xiao Lan nodded.

"Xiao Ye, our family didn't give anything as a gift, but we have some grudges with the people over there. Your family knows all about these things... We can't let you cut off contact with them just because of our family... If you..." Xiao Lan said.

"Our family knows all about these things. The gift-giving matter was decided by our family," Xiao Ye interrupted Xiao Lan and continued, "Sister Xiao Lan, I don't want to have any contact with Hejian County either. You don't know that my mother was scared to death when she heard that our uncle wanted to divorce his wife and remarry. Our grandmother has never been interested in my family. Now that we are not under her nose, she can't say anything. Anyway, my family doesn't have much money for her to make."

Winter has passed and spring has come. Xiaolan's family has had a great event these days. Sheng Xuan's official rank has been promoted from the original eighth rank to the seventh rank. This is all thanks to the corn planting last year.

According to He Mingyu, the Shen family also received rewards from the emperor. The Shen family's position in the court became more stable, and the queen's position was as solid as a rock.

Xiaoyan's marriage has also been decided, and it is to Sheng Yugui's family in Shengjia Village.

Speaking of Xiaoyan's marriage, Zhang asked Fu how the preparation of Xiaoyan's dowry was going.

This is the plan of my family. Xiaoting will get married this year, and next year it will be Xiaoyan's turn.

"I've already found someone to make the furniture, and her grandmother and I are working on the clothes and bedding. I'll let the child make a few more clothes by herself..."

When Zhang heard what Fu said, she took out a bundle and opened it. Inside was a piece of cut bright red cloth. Zhang took them out one by one to show Fu. There were also some patterns on the cloth.

"Xiaoting, go and take out all your fancy things." Zhang called Xiaoting.

Xiaoting responded and took out all the patterns for her wedding dress. Then everyone sat together, chatting and laughing while choosing.

"Over the years, our two families have lived together, and I have treated Xiaoyan as my own daughter." Zhang said as she picked out the flowers.

"Fortunately, Xiaoyan is married in the village. She can get home in two steps, but I still feel reluctant to leave her."

However, Fu was very open-minded. Her daughter could marry here and live close to her, and there would be an aunt who loved her by her side. She was very satisfied with this marriage.

"In a couple of days we are going to the county town to pick out some ornaments for Xiaoting. I heard that the grocery store there sells a batch of goods imported from the south. It's a good opportunity for you to go with us and pick out a set for Xiaoyan as well."
