Village Chief Zhao left, and the people at the scene left one after another as they saw that there was nothing left to watch. Aunt Wang wanted to say something, but in the end she didn't say anything and just left with her things.

"Old Feng, let's go back." Aunt Feng straightened her clothes, walked to Feng Quan's side, and tried to pull the corners of her mouth.

"Are you satisfied now? If you want to go back, go back by yourself. I won't go back." Feng Quan ignored Aunt Feng and turned around and walked into the room.

Aunt Feng, who was standing in the yard, called out twice: "Old Feng!"

The only response she got was Feng Quan's back and the sound of the door closing.

"Don't get up, just lie down and don't move, I'll do whatever you need."

"..."

"Don't worry, it's okay. Your health is important, and this little grievance is nothing. Don't worry, I will definitely be responsible for you."

"..."

Intermittent sounds came from the room. Aunt Feng, who was standing in the yard, felt cold all over, as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.

Aunt Feng tilted her head to look at the sky. The sun in the sky shone warmly on her body, but she could not feel a trace of warmth. Aunt Feng stretched out her hand to block the dazzling sunlight. Two lines of tears flowed through her fingers and passed across the corners of her mouth with a bitter smile.

"Grandma, what do you think will happen to Aunt Feng next?" Sui He sat at the gate of the yard, his chin supported by his hand, looking at the rice fields in the distance, and listening to his grandmother talking to Aunt Li about what had just happened at Huang Cuihua's house.

"What can we do? What else can we do? This is how Aunt Feng's life will be." Grandma replied to Sui He.

"Will Aunt Feng divorce?" Sui He came up to the group with a stool.

"Divorce? What do you mean by divorce? A woman must obey her husband after marriage and her sons after her husband's death. Without her husband, she still has several sons. Where can she go?" Aunt Li sneered, "Even if she wants to divorce, her parents won't agree."

"I think she should try her best to persuade him to come back. After all, there are still several children at home. How can they live without the man?" Aunt Li was still chattering.

"Then is there no one to take care of this kind of thing?" Sui He frowned. In modern times they have laws specifically to deal with this kind of thing. Is there none in this era?

She remembered that in her time, even in the Qin Dynasty more than 2,000 years ago, the punishment for such things was very severe.

"Suihe, you are still young. This is a family matter. Who cares about it? Besides, there are many men who have three wives and four concubines. The government will not care about such things." Aunt Li laughed when she heard Suihe say to report to the police, as if she was still young.

Aunt Li and the others just used this as a topic of conversation after dinner, but Sui He felt deeply sad.

She understood that even if there were laws to decide for her, she would not go. Even if Aunt Feng reported to the police, she would not be able to change the current situation.

If a woman reports her man to the police, no matter how reasonable she is, she will become unreasonable. Even if she puts the evidence in front of everyone, no one will even look at it.

People will only remember that this woman reported her husband to the police and arrested him. Even if she wins the case in the end, she will pay a heavy price.

Not to mention the villagers, even her closest family members will not stand by her side at that time. That will be the real hell.

Unless Aunt Feng has the courage to risk everything, which she obviously doesn't have.

"Ah," Sui He sighed and looked back at the rice fields in the distance.

"Why is Sui He always sighing at such a young age? She looks so sad. Be careful that she won't be able to get married when she grows up." Aunt Li heard Sui He sighing and joked.

Sui He turned around and said to everyone in a serious tone: "I won't marry."

"Hahaha, what nonsense are you talking about? What girl doesn't want to get married? Do you want your grandparents to support you for the rest of your life?" Several aunts laughed as if they heard something funny.

"I can support myself." Sui He frowned.

"Okay, okay, Suihe can support herself and won't get married." The aunts didn't take Suihe's words to heart and laughed together.

Sui He did not explain to them and turned her back to them. She knew how shocking her ideas were in this era.

Grandma looked at Sui He looking up at the sky with a worried look on her face.

...........

In the bustling Yingcheng, in Tongren Restaurant, Suihe handed the brocade box to Shopkeeper Li.

"Manager Li, please deliver this to General Cui."

"This..." Shopkeeper Li was a little embarrassed: "It's not that I don't want to help you, but I can't find where General Cui is. I'm afraid that your thing..."

When Shopkeeper Li saw the box Sui He took out, he knew that everything Sui He took out was for him, but now he wanted to help deliver the brocade box to General Cui.

He thought that these were some things that the little girl wanted to give to General Cui. Shopkeeper Li couldn't help but think that last time he asked him to help deliver a letter, and this time he asked him to deliver something again. Could it be that the last time General Cui came, this little girl had some inappropriate thoughts?

Although he admitted that Sui He had a sharp mind, General Cui was not something that a little girl could dream of. Thinking of this, Manager Li's face turned a little ugly. It seemed that he had to find a way to dispel the unrealistic idea in Sui He's mind.

"Is there no way to contact him?" Sui He frowned. The young master of Tongren Restaurant is a cousin of General Cui. If even Manager Li can't find General Cui, then where should she look for him?

It's not that she hadn't thought about giving the things in her hands to Qi Xiuyuan, but Qi Xiuyuan was just a businessman. According to what Manager Li said, Qi Xiuyuan's family only relied on the blessing of their ancestors to open a few restaurants in some prosperous cities.

It's no wonder Sui He thought this way. After all, Manager Li and the others didn't tell Sui He that Qi Xiuyuan's family business was far more than what Sui He saw.

Sui He had always thought that Qi Xiuyuan's family only opened a few restaurants. This was a misunderstanding caused by information asymmetry.

If the things were given to Qi Xiuyuan, Sui He was afraid that he would not be able to protect them and would also bring trouble to the Qi family. However, Cui Yian was different. Cui Yian was a famous young general. Even Sui He knew some of his deeds without asking around. With the Cui Family Army in his hands, he was invincible.

He is also a favorite of the current emperor. If you give the item to him, he will definitely protect it and will not fall into the hands of those with ulterior motives.

"I really can't help. We can't find out about the affairs of those big shots." Shopkeeper Li pushed the box back and said, "I'm sorry, I really can't help you."

"Well, okay, if you have any news about them, please let me know as soon as possible." Sui He could only take the brocade box and put the things in the backpack.

"Sure, I'll let you know as soon as I get any news about them," Shopkeeper Li said with a smile.

Sui He left Tongren Restaurant with his basket on his back, feeling somewhat depressed.

She can wait, but the rice in the fertile fields cannot. The rice in the fields will soon ear. It is not visible now. Others only think that the rice in Suihe's fields is growing lushly. But when it grows a little longer, ears, and matures, anyone can see the difference.
