Xia Xiaorou looked at Song Liu, her expression as calm as dead water, and her eyes revealed a kind of indifference and disdain.

She opened her lips slightly and said coldly, "When Cui Xi kicked me out yesterday, many neighbors around witnessed it. You kicked me out yesterday, and you asked me to go back today? How can you say that out loud?"

I would rather live a poorer and harder life, but I will never lose my dignity and face! So, mother, don't persuade me anymore, I will never go back."

After saying that, Xia Xiaorou took Chu Xianyun and turned to walk into the kitchen.

"Your mother-in-law and Cui Xi came to you in person and apologized, but you still refuse to go back?" Chu Xianyun frowned and asked Xia Xiaorou with gestures.

Xia Xiaorou shook her head and said firmly, "Once I go back, I will return to the dark days of the past. I will never go back."

Chu Xianyun nodded silently, showing her understanding, "Okay."

Seeing that Xia Xiaorou ignored her, Song Liu became furious.

He wanted to rush forward immediately and beat Xia Xiaorou up severely.

However, she did not have the courage to step into Chu Xianyun's yard. She was afraid of contracting Song Yanbai's disease, so she could only stand at the gate and shout loudly.

She shouted several times in a row, but Xia Xiaorou never left the kitchen.

At this time, she vaguely heard the cry of a child coming from home.

Song Liu had no choice but to drag Song Cuixi and hurried back home.

"You stupid girl! How could you be so easily fooled by that bitch named Xia? She raised a knife to chop you, do you really think she dared to kill you?

She was just trying to scare you! You idiot, you lost your temper and chased her away!

Now that she's gone, there are so many things to do at home and outside, and there's also this child to take care of. What do you think we should do now?"

Song Liu was so angry that she stamped her feet and raised her hands to hit Song Cuixi hard.

Song Cuixi had always been favored by Song Liu. At most, she was scolded a few times and had never suffered such a beating.

She was beaten twice in a row today. She felt so aggrieved that she could only cover her face and cry loudly.

"Mom, why did you bring this child back? You are just looking for trouble!

Since my brother has the ability to have children with other women outside, doesn’t he have the ability to support them?

Just let him raise the child himself! If the concubine doesn't raise the child, let the eldest sister-in-law raise the child. They already have two children, so what's the difficulty in raising another one?"

Song Liu was so angry that she was shaking, "Shut up!"

Just yesterday, Mrs. Song Liu rushed to the county town in a panic and found her second son, Song Wensheng, who was hiding in an old house in an alley.

What she never expected was that her second son not only did not study hard, but secretly kept a mistress. Keeping a mistress would be fine, but he kept a mistress in a brothel!

Even the child has been born!

That delicate mistress was not as pretty as Xia Xiaorou, but she was sensible and well-behaved.

Although Mrs. Song Liu was a little angry, she didn't say anything more considering that the child born to the concubine was after all a descendant of the Song family and a boy.

But the child is too young, and if the second son takes the child to hide from danger and gets caught, wouldn’t both the father and son be in trouble?

Besides, it was very cold, and I had to hide here and there with a baby who was only a few days old. The child suffered.

After much thought, she decided that all eggs should not be put in one basket, so she asked her second son to take his mistress and hide in another county.

She took the child to her elder son.

But the eldest son and his wife refused to accept the child and asked her to take her to the village to be raised by Xia Xiaorou.

It is said that Xia Xiaorou has no children, and it is difficult to support a single person. Wouldn’t it be a loss for the family if she runs away in the future?

She thought, yes, letting Xia Xiaorou adopt this child would make that bitch stay in the Song family wholeheartedly.

In order to avoid arousing suspicion among the villagers, she discussed with her eldest son and said that the child was born to his mistress and that the eldest daughter-in-law could not tolerate the child so she brought him back to the village.

Anyway, the eldest son is in the county town, and the villagers can’t find out the details.

But when I got home, I found that my foolish daughter had actually chased Xia Xiaorou away!

Crying, what's the use of crying?

Mrs. Song Liu was so angry that she hit her daughter a few more times.

"Mom, Bitch Xia just doesn't come out now. Is she going to stay there forever? Is she not going to the toilet? Is she not going to dig herbs?" Song Cuixi covered her head, avoiding Song Liu's pursuit, and said hurriedly when she thought of an idea.

Mrs. Song Liu suddenly came to her senses, let Song Cuixi go, sat on the chair, took a few breaths and said, "Go to the second room and keep watch. If you see Xia the bitch come out, bring her back immediately."

Song Cuixi didn't want to do housework, and even less did she want to take care of this child who came out of nowhere. She immediately went to the door of Song Yanbai's house and hid there, waiting for Xia Xiaorou.

But I waited until the lights were turned on, and then until Song Yanbai's family closed the door and turned off the lights, but Xia Xiaorou still didn't come out of the yard.

Instead, Song Cuixi was shivering from the cold, catching a cold and sneezing continuously.

When he returned home empty-handed, he was inevitably scolded by Mrs. Song Liu.

"Go and guard it again tomorrow. You chased away the bitch Xia, so you have to bring her back to me!" Song Liu said angrily.

Song Cuixi felt extremely aggrieved and cursed Xia Xiaorou again and again in her heart!

-

The next day, Xia Xiaorou got up at dawn to cook breakfast and boil medicine, just like the day before.

After taking the medicine and having breakfast, Xia Xiaorou went to the back mountain carrying the basket of herbs.

But Song Cuixi, who was always lazy, was still asleep at this time.

After Xia Xiaorou had already started digging herbs, Song Cuixi reluctantly got up amid Song Liu's scolding.

When Song Cuixi finished breakfast and arrived at Song Yanbai's house, Xia Xiaorou had already dug half a basket of herbs.

Just like the day before, in order to save time walking back and forth, Xia Xiaorou brought out some dry food.

Eat a few mouthfuls of snowflakes, pick a few wild dates hanging on the trees and stuff them into your mouth, and gnaw a few bites of hard bread, and that's your lunch.

When I got home, it was already dark.

As for Song Cuixi, because she had been standing in the cold wind the whole day and had caught a cold the night before without taking any medicine or rest, she developed a fever just after noon today. Unable to bear the suffering, she ran home crying.

Song Cuixi returned home empty-handed again and was sick, which made Song Liushi so angry that she stomped her feet and cursed.

"If you pass the disease to Chang'er, I will beat you to death!"

But this was her daughter, not her daughter-in-law, so despite scolding her, Mrs. Song Liu still invited a doctor to see the patient.

-

And so, three days passed.

After Song Cuixi recovered from her illness, Mrs. Song Liu discussed with Song Cuixi, "Tell me how to get Xia Bitch back. This family can't live without her."

When her daughter was seriously ill and resting, she went to the second wife's house several times.

Song Yanbai's mute wife kept waving her hands and said that Xia Xiaorou was not at home.

She waited at the door for a long time, but indeed did not see anyone.

Waiting here like this is not a solution.

"Mom, ask Song Yuan to lure that bitch Xia out." Song Cuixi gritted her teeth and gave an idea.
