Dressed as a middle-aged mistress, I want to lie down every day

Mo Chenxi said that she was heartbroken and tired, and just wanted to survive, so she proposed divorce and wanted to take them back to the Mo family.

It was because the child's father disagreed and decided to take her grandmother back to the ancestral home this time that she continued to live in the He family.

Of the four children, the younger three had tears in their eyes, only the eldest son had stubbornness in his eyes.

Mo Chenxi could guess what he wanted to say: he would not return to the Mo family.

He Shanluo grew up with feudal ideas. He is the eldest grandson of the He family and will have to support the entire He family in the future.

He adored his father, and his grandmother must have treated him better than other descendants. In the He family, he was the legitimate eldest grandson, but in the Mo family, he was a dependent.

Most people in ancient times would not choose to live with their mothers back to their maternal grandparents' home unless they were very young.

He Jingyi cried. She was at the age to get married. She understood her mother and felt the same way. She was afraid that her in-laws would be the same after she got married.

He Shankun and He Yinhua are still at the age where they are close to their mother and feel sorry for her.

Mo Chenxi had no idea of ​​blaming her eldest son. Not only in ancient times, but also in modern times, her mother once said that if a woman gets divorced and has no ability to buy a house and no income to support children, she will take the children back to her parents' home, making her parents embarrassed and having to look at the faces of her brothers' wives. The children will grow up like dependents, so it is better for them to grit their teeth and stay in their husband's home. After all, it is the child's real home.

Of course, this refers to a family where there is no domestic violence and no special or extreme in-laws.

It's like her modern-day parents' home.

After working, she gained more and more insights, and she understood and sympathized with her mother and disliked her father.

When I was in junior high school, I respected my father and thought he was a good father who never had any affairs outside. My mother once tried to test me by saying that someone else was getting divorced and taking their daughter back to her parents' home. She said angrily that if her parents divorced, she would never follow her mother because she didn't want to have to face her aunt's face.

Later she regretted it. Perhaps it was her mother who wanted to divorce that time, and it was her words that made her change her mind.

So later when she made money, she would take her mother out to travel every time she had a holiday. She bought a house and asked her mother to move in with her. But who knew that her father wanted to come with her? Her mother didn't want her father to tell her what to do all day, so she didn't move in.

Mo Chenxi could feel that the four children were relieved when they knew that their mother did not divorce. She was wondering, if she insisted on divorcing and took the children with her, would the children be willing to follow her?

For her, divorce means a bright, comfortable and hopeful future.

But what is it for children?

Mo Chenxi was silent.

I used to think that women who stayed behind to make ends meet for their children, like modern mothers, were cowardly, incompetent, and weak.

just now……

Now I feel strong.

Some women don't care whether their children will suffer in their husband's family after they leave, they just want to free themselves, but the women who stay and endure for the sake of their children are strong.

After He Wenyan and his mother rode out of the city gate in a carriage, Mrs. Jiang asked her son where the money came from, as it would cost money to return to the ancestral home.

"I went to the yamen to say goodbye to my colleagues. They each gave Cheng Yi, and there was also one given by Doctor Wu."

Mrs. Jiang praised her son and said, "You are really capable. You even gave it to your superiors. When you come back, bring some local specialties for Doctor Wu. Whether it is worth the money or not, it is a token of your consideration."

He Wenyan resisted the urge to tell others that his father-in-law knew Doctor Wu, and that it was thanks to his father-in-law's care that he was promoted step by step.

There is a saying that it is difficult to become an official in the court without connections. It is estimated that his ability to stay in the capital was arranged by his father-in-law.

But he couldn't say it, for fear that his mother would find out and go back to her hometown to brag about her son's girlfriend. In that case, she would only mention Doctor Wu and not her father-in-law.

This time, they didn't use the family carriage, but hired one because the He family's carriage couldn't handle long distances and the driver had no experience.

He Wenyan was a fifth-rank official after all, so he thought he could stay in post stations whenever possible along the way to save some money.

Fortunately, my mother didn't know about the one thousand taels given by my father-in-law, otherwise she would have arranged for him to send some to my uncle's family before he left.

Mo Chenxi waited for a few days before taking the children back. When Bao saw her, she kept smiling attentively.

Bao was frightened this time. She didn't expect her sister-in-law to be so powerful that she could force her mother-in-law away. It's good to have a good family. Unlike her, she was born a concubine's daughter and could not rely on her family. She had to be cautious in her husband's family.

Mo Chenxi just said thank you for your hard work, took over the accounts and went back to doing the housework.

She felt more comfortable than ever before, or rather, relaxed. She had difficulty breathing before, but now it seemed as if she could exhale completely in one breath.

She has a problem. She likes to spend money when she is happy. This is the first time she is so happy after coming here, so she wants to go shopping.

I took my two daughters to the street to buy some jewelry and fabrics, spending my own money to buy for whoever she wanted.

Mother Wang took them to a medium-sized jewelry store in Beijing. As soon as they entered, they saw a man.

Mo Chenxi thought that he didn’t check the almanac before going out today.

He Jingyi and her sister stepped forward and saluted, "Aunt."

It was Mrs. He, who was inside with an old lady.

When He saw her sister-in-law, she snorted first, then her eyes lit up and she said with a smile, "Are you here to buy jewelry for my mother?"

She wanted to trick her sister-in-law into buying her mother-in-law some jewelry.

Mo Chenxi didn't answer her words, but just saluted He's mother-in-law, and then said: "While you are here, I have something to do and will leave first."

She would not stay and let He blackmail her.

He called out from behind her, "Sister-in-law."

Mo Chenxi didn't stop or respond, and walked out of the store holding his daughter's hand.

He's mother-in-law, Old Lady Gao, said sarcastically, "Your sister-in-law doesn't even see you, and you still say she treats you like her own sister."

There was resentment in He's eyes because she failed to buy the dim sum from Wufangzhai and was beaten by the female shopkeeper of the dim sum shop. Her sisters-in-law often laughed at her.

After the New Year, she sent her maid to order several times but failed to get any. Instead, her sister-in-law ordered snacks for her mother-in-law to eat.

After that, her mother-in-law and sisters-in-law joined in insulting her to her face.

Today she used her private savings to buy jewelry for her mother-in-law. When she met her sister-in-law, she was laughed at by her mother-in-law again.

Mo Chenxi walked out of the jewelry store, she took a deep breath, and secretly vowed that she must rely on her own efforts and go to high-end stores to buy things in the future.

It was as if she had started from the bottom in her previous life, worked hard for ten years, and bought a house by her own efforts. She bought three gold and ten-gram dragon and phoenix bracelets for her mother. She dressed casually and bought brand-name suits for her mother, letting everyone know that her mother gave birth to a daughter who was no less valuable than other people's sons.

She also wanted to ensure that the Mo family would not have raised Mo in vain, and that she would use her efforts to provide a betrothal gift for their son and a dowry for their daughter.

Mo Chenxi even thought that after her four children got married and earned some money for the Mo family, she would tell them frankly that she was not the Mo family's biological daughter and that she would live her own life in the future.

Leave the capital, go to a place where no one knows Mo, and be herself.

Mo Chenxi asked Mother Wang to take her to the best jewelry store in Beijing. Even if she couldn't buy anything today, she could just take a look. This would also inspire her fighting spirit.

As soon as she entered, she heard someone calling her, "What a coincidence, Sister Mo is here too!"

Mo Chenxi didn't recognize him at first glance, so He Jingyi took her sister's hand and stepped forward to greet her, "Hello, Madam."

Mother Wang whispered to Mo Chenxi, "This is the wife of Jiang Yuanwailang, the Minister of Works."

Concubine Jiang’s sister-in-law?

Is it the Jiang family that tried to take over Wufangzhai last time?
