However, Ye Xiao was not discouraged and took out more than thirteen taels of silver from his sleeve.

"Today the government office rewarded me with ten taels of silver. This was from my family before. I will give it all to you today. I..." Before Ye Xiao could finish his words, Mi Yao spoke.

"I don't want your things, and take your money back. There is no relationship between us, so you don't have to give me anything."

After saying this, Mi Yao felt that she was a bit heartless, but a short pain is worse than a long one. They... are not suitable.

"How can it not matter? You are the mother of my son and the person I like. How can it not matter?" Ye Xiao said excitedly, looking at Mi Yao with affectionate and sad eyes.

"We are not suitable, and we have already divorced." After saying this, Mi Yao no longer looked at Ye Xiao, fearing that she would drown in the tenderness in Ye Xiao's eyes.

"What do you mean by inappropriate? Let's not get divorced, okay? Or are you still thinking about Zhu Xiucai?" Ye Xiao's voice trembled a little. He was really afraid that Mi Yao would reject him like before because she was still thinking about Zhu Xiucai.

"This has nothing to do with him. I simply think we are not suitable." Mi Yao turned around and stood under the window.

Night Owl was very hurt after hearing this, but he was unwilling to give up just like that.

"I will not give up."

Mi Yao heard the suppressed sob in Ye Xiao's voice.

"Go back and have some rest." Mi Yao ordered them to leave.

Night Owl was very hurt. He returned to his room and couldn't fall asleep for a long time.

Mi Mo looked up at the bright moon helplessly. She felt so confused that she even forgot to ask about moving.

The next day, Mi Yao got up as usual to make breakfast.

Ye Xiao came to the kitchen to help, and the two of them tacitly agreed not to mention what happened last night.

"What delicious food did you make?" asked Night Owl.

"Crystal shrimp dumplings, potato pancakes, pumpkin pancakes, ham rolls, and I also made mung bean soup for you. It's hot, drink some mung bean soup to cool down." Mi Yao didn't look at Ye Xiao and said while busying herself.

"It's too tiring to do these in the morning. Just one or two will be enough." Ye Xiao looked at Mi Yao with undisguised love in his eyes. Mi Yao was also numb.

The food was ready and the two little ones got up. Mi Yao took care of them, helped them wash and dressed, and even tied their hair into buns.

The mother and her two children had just sat down to eat when they heard someone knocking on the door.

"I'll go open the door." Ye Xiao got up and went to open the door.

"Uncle is here. Have you eaten? Let's eat together." Ye Xiao greeted him warmly.

"We've eaten. I came here today to ask about when you'll hold the housewarming party since your new house has been built." Liu Fugui asked.

"This? I don't know either. Should we invite the villagers to a banquet?" Ye Xiao didn't understand why there was such a custom.

"Yes, this is the rule, and it's good for you too." Liu Fugui said.

"Uncle, we don't understand this either. You can hold the banquet on a day that suits you. I'll have to help you with the specific arrangements." Ye Xiao said with a smile.

"Okay, Uncle He, don't be polite. I'll show you a date when I get back. I'll also make a list of what you need to buy and you can just buy it according to the list." Liu Fugui said and left.

Night Owl closed the door and came back to sit down.

"Uncle Liu said that our new house has been built, and according to the local customs, we need to invite the villagers to a banquet." Ye Xiao said.

"Well, I don't quite understand this. Just let Uncle Liu help arrange it." Mi Yao swallowed the food in his mouth.

"I've talked to Uncle Liu and asked him to help arrange it. He's gone back to choose a date. Once we've made a list, we'll just do the shopping." Ye Xiao said.

"Okay, I understand." Mi Yao smiled.

Ye Xiao was distracted by Mi Yao's smile.

"By the way, we are inviting the whole village to a banquet. Why don't you go back and call your mother-in-law and her family? After all, we have finally come to this point after all the hardships we have endured, and your mother-in-law will definitely be happy for us." Ye Xiao called her mother-in-law all the time, and he did it very fluently.

Mi Yao was stunned. If Ye Xiao hadn't mentioned his mother like this, Mi Yao would have forgotten about it. The original owner had a mother and two younger sisters.

"Oh, I almost forgot. I will go to Mijia Village to visit my mother today and tell her the good news." Mi Yao smiled awkwardly. This was caused by something.

"How about I accompany you today?" Ye Xiao looked at Mi Yao with a sincere tone.

"No need, you still have to go to work, I'll just take the two children back." Mi Mo smiled unnaturally.

"It's okay. Lord Jin was very satisfied with my performance in this bandit suppression campaign. He told me that if anything happens at home, I can ask for leave, as long as I don't go far away." Ye Xiao said.

"Oh." Mi Yao understood. This was similar to modern probation. He had to report to the police station every now and then. He could wander around the city, but he was not allowed to go out.

Soon the family finished their meal. Mi Yao prepared three pieces of cloth, one each for her mother and her second and third sisters, as well as pork belly, white-striped chicken, and pastries, filling a large backpack.

After locking the door, the family of four walked towards Mijia Village.

Mi Yao was holding the two children in front, and Ye Xiao was carrying a backpack behind. This warm scene was so happy to watch.

Liu Xueying came out from under a big poplar tree and saw Ye Xiao’s smiling face. She felt so angry that her teeth were itching.

After walking for an hour, we finally arrived at Mijia Village.

Looking at the scattered mud houses and the wilting crops, Mi Mo felt filled with emotion. It seemed that there was no way to avoid the severe drought this year.

The original owner had been married to Ye Xiao for four years and had done her part. She had never returned home. Except for Zhu Xiucai, everyone else was insignificant in her heart.

Mi Yao cursed the original owner in her heart for being heartless, and at the same time thought about what she would say when she got home. The original owner's mother and sisters should hate her.

"Is this the road?" Staring at the fiery red sun, Mi Yao was a little confused.

"It's this road." Night Owl looked at the confused little woman, which was so cute.

A ravine leads directly to the foot of the mountain, and on one side, there are several thatched houses.

When walking here, Mi Yao had some impression that the house at the innermost was the home of the original owner's mother.

But before I got there, I heard a child crying and my wife screaming.

When I walked in, I saw that there were many villagers gathered in front of my mother's house.

Mi Yao thought, no wonder there are so few villagers in the village, they all came here to watch the fun.

Mi Yao saw an ox cart in front of her mother's house. The cart was covered with red cloth, and even the neck of the big yellow ox was tied with red silk.

Why does Mi Mo feel like he is going to welcome a new bride?

As I approached the Mi family, I heard the voice of a young woman crying, "I won't marry, I won't marry!"

There was also a female voice, "Let go of my second sister, you are all beasts, let go of my second sister."

"You two dead girls, get up quickly. This is not up to you. This is a signature signed by your mother herself. This document is legal no matter where you go. Now the document is still here. If your mother can't pay the money, she will have to use one of you to pay off the debt." The woman's voice sounded like a duck, really unpleasant.
