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

Shanliang looked at his foot that kicked in the air and was slightly stunned.

Thinking about the task Yan assigned to him, he must not let Xia Xiaorou be bullied, so he kicked Xia Jicai again.

Xia Xiaorou was pregnant, so she didn't dare to kick too hard and just barely knocked Xia Jicai down.

But Shanliang's kick broke one of Xia Jicai's ribs.

He rolled over on the ground in pain, screaming, "Ouch——"

Xia Xiaorou patted the hem of her skirt and sneered, "Get lost! If you dare to harass me again, I'll kill you!"

"I am your stepbrother after all. You evil woman, actually hit me to death! You...you just wait for me--" Xia Jicai struggled to get up from the ground, covering his aching chest, and limped away.

Xia Xiaorou looked back at Shanshan and asked in confusion, "Why are you here?"

Shanliang blinked and pointed at her legs, "You're really quick, have you ever learned martial arts?"

Xia Xiaorou was startled for a moment, then she realized that she was exposed.

She learned it in her previous life.

When I was just reborn, I didn't remember anything and suffered a lot. Now that time has passed, some of my memories are gradually returning.

She is gradually recovering the martial arts that Yan Heng forced her to learn in her previous life.

If Xia Jicai's hand had not suddenly reached out, she would not have raised her foot to kick and exposed herself.

"Which woman in our village doesn't know how to fight? Otherwise, how can they do farm work?" She raised her eyebrows slightly and said perfunctorily.

Shanliang scratched his head and said, "So that's how it is. It seems that the women in your village are not simple."

"Yes, it's not easy, so don't underestimate us." Xia Xiaorou said coldly.

Kindness has always looked down on her in both her past and present lives.

Come to think of it, how could a young man from a wealthy family in the capital, who had been an attendant of Prince Yan since childhood, look down on a girl from a peasant family?

Shanliang snorted in her heart, no matter how powerful she is, it's just fancy moves, look how proud she is!

-

Xia Jicai endured the pain and returned home.

Xia Dequan saw him coming back crying with a painful look on his face, and asked in surprise, "Jicai, what happened to you?"

"Dad, Xiaorou beat me. It hurts so much. Is my bone broken? When she kicked me, I heard a cracking sound." Xia Jicai cried loudly but didn't dare to breathe, because if he breathed, it would cause pain in his chest and make him feel worse than death.

Xia Dequan supported him with concern, "Just sit still, I'll get a doctor to check on you."

Xia Jicai was in so much pain that he broke out in a cold sweat, "Dad, hurry up!"

Xia Dequan trotted all the way and invited Doctor Chen over.

After a quick inspection, Doctor Chen frowned and shook his head, saying, "One of the ribs is broken. It needs to be bandaged to heal."

"Ah? The bone is really broken. Dad can't let that little bitch go! You have to find her to vent my anger! If I become disabled, who will take care of you in your old age and see you to the end of your life?" Xia Jicai slammed the table and howled.

Doctor Chen frowned, "You're moving around like this, do you still need to bandage it?"

"Don't move, Jicai, take care of your illness first. I'll go ask Xiaorou right away." Xia Dequan comforted Xia Jicai.

Doctor Chen listened to them talking about Xia Xiaorou and felt puzzled. What had happened in the Xia family again?

After bandaging Xia Jicai, prescribing some medicine, and collecting the consultation fee, Doctor Chen went to Xia Xiaorou's home carrying his medicine box.

Xia Xiaorou is not at home, only Xia Xiaoying is at home.

Doctor Chen told Xia Xiaoying that the Xia family father and son were going to cause trouble for Xia Xiaorou, "Xiaorou has helped me before, I don't want her to suffer any loss."

Xia Xiaoying thanked him gratefully. After seeing Dr. Chen off, Xia Xiaoying walked to the door angrily, waiting for the Xia family to come.

She didn't wait too long before she saw Xia Dequan walking towards her with a gloomy face and his hands behind his back.

Xia Xiaoying pushed the two children into the bedroom. She moved a chair and sat in the yard, looking at Xia Dequan coldly.

Xia Dequan walked into the courtyard and saw Xia Xiaoying with a sullen face. He frowned slightly and asked, "Xiaoying? Where's Xiaorou?"

"What do you want to do with her?" Xia Xiaoying asked coldly.

"If she didn't cause trouble, why would I look for her?" Xia Dequan shook his head. "She broke all of Jicai's bones. Although Jicai is not her biological brother, he is still her stepbrother. They lived in the same family. How could she kill him?"

Hearing that it was Xia Jicai's bone that was broken, Xia Xiaoying was delighted, "Good break, good break! His bone should have been broken long ago!"

"Pa——" Xia Dequan was furious and slapped Xia Xiaoying in the face. "Jicai is also your brother, and you actually hope that he will break his bones? Xia Xiaoying, how could you become so vicious? You disappoint me so much!"

"Xia Dequan, it's you who disappoints us!" Xia Xiaorou's voice said loudly behind them.

She hurriedly got off the carriage, strode over, pushed Xia Dequan aside, held Xia Xiaoying's face and looked at her, "Sister, does it hurt?"

Xia Xiaoying smiled awkwardly, "It doesn't hurt anymore when I see you."

Song Yanbai parked the carriage and came over to ask, "Uncle Xia, why did you hit Xiaoying? Xiaoying's leg is still injured."

He was also extremely disappointed with Xia Dequan. "Xiaoying's leg was injured. Not only did no one from your family visit her, but you also beat her. You also asked her sisters to recognize you as their stepbrother and asked them to be close to you. How could they be close to you when they were so disappointed?"

Xia Dequan looked embarrassed, "Yanbai, there are some things you don't know."

"Brother Yanbai, can you please help me invite Doctor Chen? Thank you very much." Xia Xiaorou said to Song Yanbai.

Song Yanbai glanced at Xia Dequan and said, "Uncle Xia, if you beat them sisters again, I won't agree."

He warned sullenly and turned away.

Seeing him walking away, Xia Xiaoying asked Xia Dequan in a cold voice, "You dare to avenge Xia Jicai and cause trouble for Xiaorou? If you think so, then I will settle all the new and old grudges together."

Xia Xiaorou was surprised, "Sister?"

Xia Xiaoying stopped Xia Xiaorou, "Xia Jicai, that beast, often peeked at Xiaorou when she was bathing. I found out several times, and I told you, but you didn't do anything! Not only that, you told Xia Chen about it, and she beat me! Do you act like a father?"

Xia Xiaorou opened her eyes wide, "Sister?"

Xia Xiaoying held Xia Xiaorou's hand and said, "Don't worry, he didn't see you. Every time you took a bath, I stood in front of your door. Later, when I was getting married, I sealed all the windows of your room and added wooden bars to the door frame. When the door was closed, even with the lights on, no one could see a shadow inside."

Xia Xiaorou suddenly realized that it was no wonder that there was no sunlight in her house all year round. It turned out that Xia Xiaoying was preventing Xia Jicai from peeping at her.

No wonder Xia Xiaoying often told her to be careful of Xia Jicai, saying that Xia Jicai was not a good person and had once peeked at young wives in the village taking a bath. This was a hint for her to pay attention to Xia Jicai.

Her sister had done so much for her quietly, so why did she still doubt that her sister didn't love her?

"Sister, why didn't you tell me earlier?" Xia Xiaorou held Xia Xiaoying's hand, feeling grateful and sad.

She doesn't have a mother, but she has a sister who loves her!

"I'm your sister, it's my duty to protect you." Xia Xiaoying smiled faintly.

Xia Dequan waved his hands, "So what? If it weren't for me, you and your mother would have died long ago. How dare you treat Jicai like this? You are repaying kindness with enmity!"

Xia Xiaorou narrowed her eyes and looked at Xia Dequan coldly, "Speaking of my mother, I want to ask Dad again, you never liked our mother, right? Then why did you marry her?"

"That's..." Xia Dequan clenched his fists and said angrily, "It was Aunt Tian and your mother's idea to ask me to marry your mother and raise you three siblings! But we are not real husband and wife. Haha, I have the reputation of a woman in vain, but I live the life of a widower. And they even want me to like your mother? Impossible!"

"Madame Tian has another condition. If you support my mother and our three siblings, I will give you a lot of gold, pearls, jade and silver. Although you will have the reputation of a married man, it is just a fake marriage, but you can have a lot of property, right, Xia Deyuan?" Xia Xiaorou's eyes narrowed and she said in a cold voice.

Xia Deyuan was panicked. Xia Xiaorou actually knew all these things?

How can this be?
