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

"After I adopted the child, I severed ties with my mother-in-law's family. They lived their lives and I lived mine.

"I will not inherit any property from their family, nor will I receive any benefits from their family. I don't want any land or house. My life or death has nothing to do with them.

"But my benefits and my future wealth have nothing to do with them, and their life and death have nothing to do with me. If they harass me, please be sure to punish them, clan elders and noble uncle."

Xia Xiaorou said in a firm tone.

Listening to what Xia Xiaorou said, Song Cuixi's eyes lit up.

As long as she is not allowed to take care of the child, Xia Xiaorou can go wherever she wants to die.

Song Cuixi was the first to nod in agreement, "Okay, I agree."

Song Liu had long been tired of the drudgery of raising a child. As long as the child was safe and sound, Xia Xiaorou could do whatever she wanted.

Don't want her family's property? Oh, she doesn't want to give it to you yet.

As for Xia Xiaorou's property...

It's so funny. Does Xia Xiaorou have any property? She's actually on guard against him. Tsk tsk, it's so funny.

So, Song Liu also agreed and said, "I have no objection. However, Xia must not abuse the child. If something happens to the child, I will also ask the elders to punish Xia."

The three clan leaders and clan leader Song Guisheng saw that both parties had reached a consensus, so they said one after another: "Now that you two have agreed, we have no objection. Xia, now that you have made your decision, let's start the adoption process. Which child do you want to adopt..."

Before the elders finished speaking, Song Cuixi immediately took Xiaochang and stuffed him into Xia Xiaorou's arms, "She will adopt this child."

But Xia Xiaorou cleverly avoided it, waved at Song Yuan, and gently called out: "Yuan'er, come here, come to mother."

Song Cuixi and Song Liu were stunned.

Song Liu was even more furious, "Xia, you want to adopt Song Yuan?"

Looking at Song Liu's angry and surprised expression, Xia Xiaorou felt happy in her heart.

Song Liushi, don't you like this child, ** Chang? You should raise your own children yourself!

Xia Xiaorou nodded, looked at Song Liu and said seriously, "Isn't Yuan'er a child of the Song family? Can't I adopt him?"

"He has parents!" Song Liu was furious.

Xia Xiaorou pointed at the child that Song Cuixi was holding, and raised her eyebrows slightly, "The child you want to give me also has parents. His parents are still shopkeepers in the county town!

"He lives in a house in the county town and uses a mule cart to get around. He's so rich, so he doesn't need me to be his adoptive father, right?

"It's Yuan'er, his family is poor, his father is in poor health, and his mother can't speak and can't earn any income. His family has been hungry all year round, so I want to help him and let him live a good life."

Although Song Yanbai's family was poor, he often helped the clan when his father was alive.

The clan leader, Song Guisheng, had received benefits from Song Yanbai's father in the past, and wanted to help Song Yanbai, so he nodded and praised Xia Xiaorou's arrangement.

"What Xia said is right. Yuan'er is the child who needs more help. Cui Xi Niang, you should let your eldest son Baoshan raise the child you brought back. He is a man wearing satin clothes, can't he raise his own son? He needs others to raise him? Isn't he afraid that the villagers will laugh at him?"

Song Guisheng also realized that Song Liu was deliberately bullying Xia Xiaorou. She was worried that Xia Xiaorou would run away, so she brought a child back for Xia Xiaorou to raise.

If Xia Xiaorou did not adopt Song Yuan, he also had the idea of ​​letting Xia adopt other children in the family to prevent her from running away.

But Xia Xiaorou adopted Song Yuan, who is also a child of the clan, which means that Xia Xiaorou will not run away.

Song Guisheng's words were also agreed upon by the three clan elders and the neighbors who were watching the fun.

Song Liu, who was tricked and did not gain any advantage, shouted loudly that she did not agree with Xia Xiaorou leaving home or adopting Song Yuan.

"You two, mother and daughter, beat and scold Xiaorou all the time, and Cuixi even threw away her clothes. You don't let her live separately, are you trying to force her to death?" Song Yanbai said angrily.

"Cui Xiniang, what you did before was really too much. We can't help you." Song Guisheng said.

Others also said that Song Liu's actions were excessive.

It is said that Xia Xiaorou is honest and hardworking. She has no intention of remarrying and is willing to raise the children of the clan. There are not many young childless widows who can do this.

Mrs. Song Liu was besieged by everyone, and Song Cuixi couldn't win the argument with these fast-talking people. The mother and daughter were speechless and had no choice but to agree.

At that moment, clan leader Song Guisheng brought Xia Xiaorou, Song Yanbai and their family to the Song family's ancestral hall.

An incense table was set up, and Xia Xiaorou was asked to serve as the tablet for the Song family ancestors, and she acknowledged Song Yuan as her adopted son.

Under the guidance of Song Yanbai, Song Yuan served tea to Xia Xiaorou and recognized her as his adoptive mother.

The ancestors testified, the neighbors, fellow villagers and clansmen who were watching testified, and the elders of the clan testified.

The recognition ceremony was simple but solemn.

Of course, Song Liu was angry and did not go to visit.

Song Cuixi hated Xia Xiaorou and didn't go either.

She was tricked by Xia Xiaorou into asking the clan elders for help. When Song Liu found out, she beat and scolded her. The little baby ** Chang was frightened by the noise and cried non-stop.

For a while, there was chaos in the Song Liu family.

When Yan Heng was riding in a carriage passing by the Song Family Ancestral Hall in the village, he saw many people gathered there to watch. He vaguely saw Xia Xiaorou sitting in the hall, and it seemed that some ceremony was being held.

His eyes narrowed slightly and he called out to Shanliang to stop the carriage.

"Go and find out what happened in the Song Family Ancestral Hall."

Shanliang stretched his neck and looked forward, thinking that there was nothing interesting about this, it was just the villagers mediating a fight dispute.

Everyone says Yan Heng is idle, but he thinks the people in the village are the most idle.

A chicken or a bunch of vegetables would be tried in court. If two children from two families had a fight and it was unclear what was going on, the ancestral hall would be opened to try them.

Really bored.

But he didn't dare to refute Yan Heng, so he walked over obediently and stopped an old man to ask about the situation.

After asking around, he pursed his lips and sneered in his heart: The villagers are really idle.

He ran back and told Yan Heng the news he had heard.

"I guess Xia was bored, so she adopted a godson to relieve her boredom. She is holding a recognition ceremony and the villagers are here to watch the fun." Shanliang shrugged, looking like he was telling boring news.

But when Yan Heng heard the news, his expression suddenly changed, and dark clouds immediately rolled over his cheeks.

"If you want a son, why don't you give birth to one yourself? You actually adopted him as your son? What a fool!" Yan Heng gritted her teeth.

Shanliang opened her eyes wide, with an expression of disbelief, "Master, Xia is a widow, who can she have a child with?"

Yan Heng was startled by the question, "..." He glanced at Shanshan fiercely, withdrew his hand, and the curtain of the carriage fell leisurely, "Go back to the village!"

He wanted to replace this guard.

Shanliang touched the back of his head. What did he say wrong? Why was Yanheng angry again?

baffling.

-

The plan completely failed. Song Liu was in a bad mood. The children's noise gave her a headache, so she took out her anger on Song Cuixi.

He beat and scolded me.

Song Cuixi ran around the room holding her head, "Mother only bullies me, but this is not my fault! Bitch Xia doesn't raise her child, won't mother go to her parents' house to complain? Look at what a well-educated daughter the Xia family has raised, won't mother go to the Xia family to complain? Why does mother blame me?"

Song Liu withdrew her hand and stood there thinking about her daughter's words.

Makes sense.

She should go to the Xia family to complain!
