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

Xia Xiaorou's body stiffened, her nerves tense, "Lord Yan, I... I'm not in good health, I'm afraid I can't get pregnant, don't worry about me."

"I don't believe it." Yan Heng kissed her earlobe and rubbed her belly with his big hands from time to time. "How do you know you can't get pregnant without trying?"

Xia Xiaorou was so disturbed by the teasing, "Lord Yan, it's getting late, why don't you take a rest? I have to travel tomorrow morning."

Yan Heng straightened her body, looked at her eyes and asked, "What are you going to do in the county town?"

"I...I'll help Brother Yanbai find someone." Xia Xiaorou said, biting her lip.

Yan Heng looked at her face for a while, asked no more questions, and pulled her onto the bed.

Xia Xiaorou was worried that Yan Heng would do something stupid again, so she straightened her body.

Yan Heng was so angry that she laughed.

"Don't worry, I will keep my word." He pulled Xia Xiaorou into his arms and hugged her, and sure enough, he didn't make any moves.

Xia Xiaorou was worried at first, her heart was hanging in the air, and she didn't dare to fall asleep at all.

But she was very sleepy during pregnancy, and she had been running back and forth today, so she was tired and sleepy, and fell asleep after a while.

Yan Heng turned sideways and looked at Xia Xiaorou.

In the dim candlelight, Xia Xiaorou's eyes and eyebrows were picturesque.

He gently pinched Xia Xiaorou's chin, leaned over and kissed her lips softly.

"Stupid woman!"

-

The next morning, when Xia Xiaorou woke up, she found that Yan Heng was no longer in the bed.

Outside the bedroom, the old lady from the host family was talking to Yan Heng, "My husband's wife likes sour food. She ate a whole bowl of pickled vegetables yesterday. I'm making some sour plum soup now. Does she want some?"

"Maybe I will drink it. Thanks to you, grandma."

"You're welcome, sir."

Xia Xiaorou suddenly came to her senses, got out of bed in a hurry, put on her clothes quickly, combed her hair, and went out of the bedroom.

Yan Heng, who was sitting on a chair reading a book, smiled and nodded at her, "Are you awake? Go wash up and have breakfast. There are sour plum soup, pancakes, and millet porridge."

"It's cold, let's take a shower with hot water." The old lady from the host family came over with a half-basin of hot water, nodded at Xia Xiaorou with a smile, and went into the bedroom.

Xia Xiaorou glanced at Yan Heng and followed her into the bedroom. She pulled the host's grandmother and whispered, "Grandma, you didn't say anything to my man, did you?"

"No?" The host's grandmother blinked, "Is there anything you can't say?"

Xia Xiaorou, "..." Forget it, asking won't reveal anything, she shook her head, "Nothing."

After washing up, Xia Xiaorou went to the outer room.

Yan Heng has already sat down at the table.

He was eating a bowl of millet porridge and placing the sour plum soup on the seat opposite him.

Xia Xiaorou wanted to say that she didn't like sour food at all and the old lady of the landlady was talking nonsense.

But her stomach, eyes and nose were not working well.

Seeing the bowl of sour plum soup and breathing in its aroma, Xia Xiaorou's morning sickness was suppressed and her mouth was watering.

She picked up the bowl and took a sip.

I found that my whole body and mind were extremely refreshed, as if I was eating nectar from the gods.

Yan Heng raised his eyes to look at her and curled the corners of his lips quietly.

After a good breakfast, Yan Heng ordered Shanliang to pack up the carriage and set off.

Xia Xiaorou led the horse over and was about to climb on it, but Yan Heng grabbed her hand and led her to the carriage, "Let the horse follow, you and I will ride in the carriage."

Without allowing Xia Xiaorou to object, Yan Heng lifted the curtain and pushed Xia Xiaorou into the carriage.

Xia Xiaorou turned around and saw Yan Heng following in. He pulled her to sit beside him and told Shanliang, "Drive the car to the county town."

Soon, the carriage started moving.

"We may take different routes. When we reach the county gate, please let me down." Xia Xiaorou glanced at Yan Heng and said.

Yan Heng didn't object, nor did she agree. She pulled her to lie down on the cushion in the car and said, "Take a rest."

Then he closed his eyes.

Xia Xiaorou didn't dare to ask any more questions and could only close her eyes and rest.

It was still a hundred miles away from the county town. It was boring to ride in a carriage. There was really nothing to do except sleeping.

The carriage was not moving fast and it was not until the afternoon that we arrived at the county town.

When Xia Xiaorou woke up, she found that the car had entered the city.

At this moment, she didn't care whether Yan Hengtong agreed or not, and just said, "Lord Yan, just let me go here."

Yan Heng rested one hand on the pillow and the other on her bent knee, tapping it intermittently and nodding at her, "Do you need my help to find someone?"

"No need, it's not hard to find people." Xia Xiaorou said.

She didn't dare let Yan Heng interfere in her affairs.

Yan Heng looked at her for a while, and without forcing her, asked Shanliang to stop the carriage.

Xia Xiaorou breathed a sigh of relief, untied the horse, climbed on it, and rode away.

Shanliang said to the car, "Master, do you want me to follow Madam Xia?"

Yan Heng lifted the curtain and looked at the direction Xia Xiaorou left. "No, I know what she is going to do."

"Oh? What does she want?"

"Let's go to the county government office and have tea in the back hall of County Magistrate Liu."

"Yes, my lord."

-

After Xia Xiaorou left on horseback, she took a detour and headed for the county government office.

Halfway through the journey, she met Zhou Maoxun.

"Xiao Rou? You're in the county?" Zhou Maoxun was riding a mule and was very happy to see Xia Xiaorou. He patted the mule's back and walked towards Xia Xiaorou. "I came to the county to sell furs. Why didn't you tell me earlier that you were coming to the county? I can keep you company. You came here overnight, right?"

Xia Xiaorou nodded slightly, "It's Cousin Zhou, I came to the county to file a complaint."

"Complain? Who?"

"Sue Song Wenshan." Xia Xiaorou waved her hand at Zhou Maoxun, "I have to rush to the county government office immediately. I'm leaving first, cousin Zhou."

"I'll go with you! The county government won't accept a case where a single woman sues a man." Zhou Maoxun chased after Xia Xiaorou.

"I have someone to help me, Cousin Zhou, you don't have to worry about me." Xia Xiaorou said.

"Who?"

"Zuo Tongsheng, he also wants to sue Song Wenshan." Xia Xiaorou said.

After separating from Zuo Feiyi yesterday, she went back to the village to get the household registration card, while Zuo Feiyi came to the county town first and waited for her in front of the county government office.

According to the laws of this dynasty, a single woman who is not accompanied by a male relative is not allowed to file a complaint.

She couldn't find anyone to help, so she turned to Zuo Feiyi.

When the time comes, she will ask Zuo Feiyi to help as her aunt's cousin.

It is said that Madam Zuo and her biological mother, Wei, were sworn sisters in the past.

Only with this relationship will the county government accept the case.

But Zhou Maoxun said, "He and you are not relatives, and the government may not accept the case. I'd better go with you."

"No need, cousin Zhou."

"I'm already in the county town, so I'll accompany you. If you need me, let me help you. If you don't, let me go and see what's going on." Zhou Maoxun insisted.

Unable to persuade, Xia Xiaorou frowned helplessly, "Okay, Cousin Zhou."

The two of them came to the county government gate together.

But Xia Xiaorou waited and waited, and until it was already dark, Zuo Feiyi still hadn't come.

Zhou Maoxun said, "Xiao Rou, we can't wait any longer. It will be dark if we wait any longer. Go and beat the drum, and I will help you complain."

Xia Xiaorou was also worried that if she waited any longer, Song Wenshan would flee to another county and no longer be under the jurisdiction of this county, making it even more difficult to catch him.

She walked to the drum of redress, picked up the hammer and started beating the drum.

After three bangs, a bailiff came over and asked, "Who's beating the drum? Do you have a petition?"

"Brother, of course there is a complaint! I am suing my ex-husband, Song Wenshan, for accidentally killing another patron, Yu Dahai, when competing with someone for a singing girl. He has been hiding for more than two years, causing me to become a widow and live a miserable life." Xia Xiaorou took out the complaint written by Zuo Feiyi from her sleeve and handed it forward. "The end of the complaint states where he is hiding at the moment. Please go and arrest him immediately, sir. If you are too late, he will flee to another county."

The bailiff asked again if there was anyone accompanying him to file the complaint. Zhou Maoxun stepped forward and said, "I am here with you. I am Xia's cousin, Zhou Maoxun. My mother is Xia's aunt."

More than two years ago, a patron died in a brothel in the county town. The murderer could not be found and the case remained an unsolved case.

When the bailiff heard that the suspect in this case had been found, he immediately took Xia Xiaorou's complaint and ran into the lobby.

The county magistrate was in the back hall at this time, chatting with Yan Heng.

The bailiff handed over the complaint, "Sir, a commoner named Xia Xiaorou has come to file a complaint about a client who was beaten to death in Baihua Tower more than two years ago."

"Ms. Citizen? Who is accompanying you?" Magistrate Liu took the petition and looked at it hurriedly.

"He is her biological cousin." said the bailiff.

Yan Heng narrowed his eyes and his face suddenly turned cold.

Xia Xiaorou, came to ask his cousin for help?

Don't look for him either?

Ah!
