The whole family traveled through time and became doctors, raised children and farmed in ancient tim

Xie Songyang had originally been driving his ox cart back home to wash the wooden barrel for sour plum soup, but upon hearing the news, he quickly rushed over, bringing Xie Lian and Xie Shu with him.

Xie Songyang knew what had happened when he arrived. He also knew his wife's character very well. This could only be because of her greed, and there was no possibility of her being wronged.

He was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "Mother, it's true that Liu was wrong in this matter, and I don't have the face to plead for her. I have no objection to divorcing her, but I can't write, so I can only ask Songlin to do it for me. I'll just sign my name."

His words were firm and resolute, without the slightest hesitation. When Mrs. Liu heard her husband's words, she immediately jumped up and cursed at Xie Songyang.

"Xie Er Lao! I've been with you for so many years, endured so much hardship, and even borne you two children. Now you say you want a divorce, so I'll divorce you. Do you have any conscience?" Mrs. Liu's voice was sharp and shrill. "When your fourth brother was a failure, the whole family suffered with him. That bastard squandered all our money. Now that he's rich, you all try to curry favor with him. Just because I took a basket of his eggs, you want to divorce me and send me home? Just because life gets easier, you want to abandon your wife. You wish! I won't leave."

Xie Lian bit her lip, feeling extremely embarrassed as she looked at her mother, who was acting like she was going crazy. Her face flushed, and her eyes were filled with hatred.

She had thought she could find a good family with the money her fourth uncle had promised her, but if word got out about Liu's affairs, what kind of family would she find? With a divorced mother at home, how could any good family be willing to take her in?

Therefore, the mother must never be divorced, at least not before she gets married.

Xie Lian took a deep breath, tried hard to suppress the panic and anger in her heart, and slowly walked in front of Old Lady Shen and Xie Songyang.

"Grandma, Dad, please let Mom go this time." Xie Lian's voice trembled slightly. "Mom did do something wrong, but she was just confused at the moment. Mom has sacrificed a lot for this family over the years. If I divorce her now, our family will be criticized." Xie Lian paused. "Besides, my granddaughter's life will be affected."

"Lian'er, you are the only one who treats your mother well." Liu hugged Xie Lian and cried bitterly. She didn't expect Xie Lian to stand up and speak for her. She could only grab this last straw.

Old Lady Shen looked at Xie Lian, feeling somewhat hesitant. Her granddaughter's previous marriage proposal had been scared away by the Fourth Prince's incident, and now with another mother like her, she was afraid she wouldn't be able to find a husband. Old Lady Shen's gaze lingered on Xie Lian for a long time. Although Liu was hateful, Xie Lian was still the Xie family's granddaughter, and Old Lady Shen didn't want to ruin her life.

Old Lady Shen pondered for a moment, then slowly spoke, "Lian'er, don't blame me for being cruel. I must write the divorce letter today, but for your sake, I'll keep it for now. I won't show it to you until you get married. After you get married, I'll kick her out immediately."

Xie Lian's face paled slightly. She knew that her grandmother had already made a big concession. She quickly bowed and said, "Thank you, grandma. I understand your good intentions. I will definitely keep a good eye on my mother and will never let her make the same mistake again."

Liu was already sobbing and bursting into tears: "Mother, I know I was wrong. I will behave myself from now on and never cause trouble for our family again."

Xie Songyang stood aside. He no longer had any feelings for Liu, but he still couldn't bear to see his daughter being dragged down by her: "Liu, you take care of yourself."

Xie Songlin didn't want to help write something like a divorce letter, but under the angry glare of Old Lady Shen, he still wrote one for Xie Songyang to sign. Old Lady Shen took a look at it and put it away.

"Ms. Liu, now that I have the divorce letter, you are no longer considered a member of our Xie family. We are letting you stay for now so that Lian'er can find a mother to marry her. If you act up again, I will take the divorce letter to the village chief for justice."

Liu nodded repeatedly: "Yes, mother, I won't dare to do it again. I won't dare to do it again."

Old Lady Shen: "Go to your mother's house tomorrow and get back all the things you stole and return them to Songlin!"

"Mom, I understand. I'll go to my parents' house early tomorrow morning to get the things back."

The farce was temporarily over, and everyone packed up their things and went back to their own business. After all, the shop and other businesses had to continue tomorrow, and there was still a lot of work to do.

The next morning, Liu didn't dare stay at home for long and went to her parents' home before dawn. She knew that if she didn't get the things back, Old Lady Shen would not let her go. She was also really afraid of the divorce letter.

But she also knew her family very well. Even if she didn't count the basket of eggs that Liu Yin took away, her mother and sister-in-law would not easily give out the rice, flour, meat and vegetables that she had embezzled from her family. Her mother and sister-in-law have always been shrewd and calculating. How could they spit out something they had already eaten?

As Liu walked, she struggled to think about how to start. She knew this journey wasn't going to be easy, but she had no choice but to face it head-on. She prayed silently in her heart, hoping her mother and sister-in-law would consider her and not take things too far.

When she finally arrived at her mother's house, her steps slowed down involuntarily. She took a deep breath, mustered her courage, and knocked on the door. There were footsteps inside, and then the door slowly opened, revealing her mother's slightly surprised face.

"Why are you here so early?" asked Liu's mother.

Liu smiled awkwardly and said, "Mother, I have something urgent to discuss with you and sister-in-law."

Mother Liu frowned, as if she had noticed something, and stepped aside to let her into the house. After a while, her sister-in-law Li was also called over. Liu looked at her mother and sister-in-law, feeling nervous. She bit her lip and said, "Mother, sister-in-law, can you give me back the things I took back earlier?"

Liu's mother and Li's expressions changed instantly. Li spoke first, "What? Why should we return something we took back? You're just messing around."

Mother Liu also echoed, "Yes, we are short of these things at home. You have already brought them back, why should you return them?"

Liu was anxious and said quickly, "Mother, sister-in-law, I really can't do this this time. These things were stolen from me when I was working as a helper at the Fourth Brother's house. Yesterday, Yin Ge'er stole a basket of eggs, and the matter was exposed. If I don't return these things, I will be divorced. Please consider it a favor to me."

After hearing this, Liu's mother and Li's expressions turned even uglier. Li curled her lips and said, "You were careless in your work, and now you're bothering us. We've already eaten all the food you brought, so how can you give it back?"

Liu was so anxious that tears were about to come out. She begged, "Mother, sister-in-law, I know our family is not easy, but I really have no other choice. If my things are gone, can you give me some money? If I am divorced, what will I do in the future? Lian'er will also be affected. Please just pity me and Lian'er."

Mother Liu frowned, looking embarrassed. "We don't have much money at home. We live a tight life. How can we have any extra money to give you?"

Mrs. Li also said, "That's right, you shouldn't have stolen those things in the first place. We didn't force you to steal them. You took them back to your parents' house to pretend to be rich. Now that you've gotten into trouble, you only come to us. We can't help you at all."

When Mrs. Liu heard these harsh words, she immediately became furious: "Okay, you are turning your back on me now, right? Why didn't you say these words when you begged me to find a job for Liu Yin? Now that I'm in trouble, you all just stand by and watch." Mrs. Liu was so angry that her face turned red and her voice became a few degrees higher.

Liu's mother and Li were a little embarrassed by Liu's yelling. Li immediately retorted: "Don't talk nonsense. When did we ask you for help? It was you who was willing to help. Now that something has gone wrong, you blame us."

"Okay, hurry up and leave. You're married now, so don't go back to your parents' house all the time. It's so embarrassing if people see you." Li said as she pushed Liu out of the door, then closed it and ignored her.
