Divorce the bad husband, store grain fields, and marry the emperor's uncle for the second time

How could Song Cuixi apologize to Xia Xiaorou?

She snorted and rolled her eyes.

Xia Xiaorou cried to the people around her with tears streaming down her face, "I am so petite and weak, but Cuixi is so tall and strong, how could I possibly bully her? My aunts, uncles, and grandpas all see what kind of life I lead. Cuixi is the only one who chases me and beats me, so how could I have the ability to bully her? I am no match for her at all."

"Obviously there was one. You just now tried to kill me with a kitchen knife!" Song Cuixi shouted at the top of her voice.

"No, no, you are wronging me!" Xia Xiaorou retorted crying.

"There is!"

"Where is the evidence?" Xia Xiaorou smiled secretly in her heart.

Just now, when she was chopping at the door with a knife, no one noticed her.

Song Cuixi was stunned by this question and gritted her teeth in anger.

But she suddenly remembered someone, so she pointed at Chu Xianyun and said, "This mute saw it."

Chu Xianyun waved her hands quickly and gestured with her hands: "Xiao Rou didn't hit you with a knife. She was boiling medicine at my house at the time. Cui Xi, don't talk nonsense."

"It's true, it's true, it's true!" Song Cuixi stomped her feet and started to make a fuss.

Xia Xiaorou cried again and said, "Did you see that? Cui Xi was the one who bullied me, but she insisted on saying that I bullied her. How can I live like this? I really can't continue to live in my husband's house."

Song Cuixi rolled her eyes and said in a cold and overbearing tone: "Then get out! The farther the better."

The neighbors all tried to persuade Xia Xiaorou: "But if you leave here, where can you go?"

Xia Xiaorou looked at Chu Xianyun beside her, hugged her tightly, and begged, "Sister Xianyun, please accept me. I can help you take care of Yuaner and do housework. As long as you give me a room to live in and don't let me suffer from the cold, that's enough."

Chu Xianyun looked at her, frowning while signing, and said, "There's a sick person at home. Aren't you afraid that he might pass the disease on to you?"

Xia Xiaorou quickly shook her head, her tone firm: "Aren't you and Yuan'er not infected? And Doctor Chen has already examined Brother Yan Bo. He said it's not a big problem. As long as you take some medicine, you will get better in a few days."

Song Cuixi was eager for Xia Xiaorou to move to Chu Xianyun's house. "Okay, you want to go there yourself. It's best if you don't come back after you go!"

It would be best if Xia Xiaorou got sick and died quickly!

Song Cuixi cursed viciously in her heart.

She glared at Xia Xiaorou fiercely, turned back into the house and slammed the door shut.

"Look, not only does she not let me go back, she also closed the door." Xia Xiaorou looked at the closed door helplessly and said to Chu Xianyun with a wry smile.

Chu Xianyun sighed slightly and could only nod to show her understanding: "Okay."

Xia Xiaorou felt relieved. Good, she finally succeeded in leaving Song Liu's home.

Although the clothes and bedding discarded on the ground were already worn out, Xia Xiaorou still couldn't bear to throw them away.

She picked them up one by one.

She is poor now, and although these old clothes don't look good, at least they can still be worn.

Everyone came to help Xia Xiaorou, picked up the clothes and bedding, and delivered them to Chu Xianyun's doorstep.

However, they did not dare to step into the yard. They just put their clothes and bedding on top of the fence and left.

Seeing them retreating, Xia Xiaorou secretly vowed in her heart that she would do everything she could to cure Song Yanbai's illness.

Chu Xianyun cleaned up a room and settled Xia Xiaorou down.

Song Yanbai, who was lying on the sickbed, was filled with conflicts and entanglements when he heard that Xia Xiaorou was going to stay at his house.

On the one hand, he felt pity for Xia Xiaorou; on the other hand, he could not find a better solution.

He could only remind Xia Xiaorou to stay away from his room as much as possible, and told Chu Xianyun to take good care of Xia Xiaorou.

"Xiao Rou, logically, I should be the one to take care of you. The day before your elder brother disappeared, he asked me to acknowledge you as his sister. But, ahem... my body is really not up to the task."

Her eldest brother...

Xia Xiaorou could no longer remember what her elder brother looked like.

When her eldest brother disappeared, she was only four years old, and it was two years after her mother passed away.

It was also a month after my stepmother and father's son was born.

The villagers said that the eleven-year-old brother was carrying water early in the morning, but suddenly disappeared at noon.

Some people say that the eldest brother fell into a pond and drowned.

Some people also said that the eldest brother was abducted by a boy.

Some even said that the eldest brother was eaten by a wild wolf in the back mountain.

Anyway, no matter what, there is no trace of the person alive or dead.

In her previous life, when she finally had wealth, she immediately sent people to inquire about the whereabouts of her eldest brother. But until her death, she did not find any clues about her eldest brother.

Song Yanbai is the same age as his older brother, and the two have been playing and frolicking together since they learned to walk.

Unfortunately, Song Yanbai lost both his parents when he was young. He grew up relying on the support of his clan members and was very frail, so it was difficult for him to take good care of her.

Xia Xiaorou didn't want Song Yanbai to worry too much, so she stood outside the door and said, "Brother Yanbai, I am satisfied with having a place to stay. I will take good care of myself, so you don't have to worry about me. Although my husband's house is spacious, they abuse me and beat me all day long. If I continue to live there, I am afraid I won't live long. In comparison, although your place is simple and old, no one bullies me. I really like it here."

She was telling the truth, and Song Yanbai, who understood her predicament, had no choice but to agree: "Okay, then you can stay here with peace of mind."

"Is Madam Xia here?" A young woman's voice suddenly spoke loudly at the gate of the courtyard.

Xia Xiaorou recognized that this was the voice of Zhu Yun, the maid in Yan Heng's room.

She wondered why Zhu Yun came again.

Xia Xiaorou walked to the gate of the yard, "Did your husband send you here? What does he want?"

Yan Heng always likes to do some weird things. I wonder what's going on this time.

Chu Xianyun became curious and followed to see what was going on.

Zhu Yun looked around the house in Chu Xianyun's courtyard and frowned, with a hint of disgust in her frown.

However, she still nodded and smiled politely, and said to Xia Xiaorou: "It's not our husband, it's the manager of the manor, Madam Zhu, who sent me here. She said there is a job in the manor that is very suitable for Madam Xia, so she asked me to ask Madam Xia if she is willing to work there. The monthly salary is two thousand coins."

When Chu Xianyun heard this number, she was surprised and happy.

She hurriedly pulled Xia Xiaorou's clothes and gestured, "Hurry up and agree to it. Two thousand coins a month! This is too much. If you go to work in the manor over there, you don't have to live in my house. My house is too shabby. You will suffer if you live here with us."
