The main reason is that there are a series of cultural practices in rural areas at the moment that are unfair to divorced women.
Lu Lan has no parents and has nowhere to go after the divorce. If we get divorced, I won’t even know where to register my household registration.
In a few years, she will be able to go to the city to work, and with her hard-working hands, she will still have a way to make a living.
Her more than ten kilograms of meat were still lying in Fengmian's dustpan. Fengmian asked, "Sister Lan, what do you think we should do with this meat?"
"I won't take this meat away. I'll cut off some and cook it for tonight. I'll salt the rest and leave it at your house. Mianmian, please help me. Thank you."
Feng Mian said hurriedly, "Sister Lan, it's just a small thing, it's too formal for you to say thank you. I also want to make bacon out of this pound of meat and three pounds of spare ribs, so I'll help you make it."
"Okay, thank you."
"But Brother Feng can probably guess that I'm here. What if he comes?"
"I'll cut off a big piece and peel some potatoes tonight to stew them all. If he asks me, I'll say that all the meat I got this year is in the pot."
"That's fine."
"Come to my house tonight and eat. We can eat as much meat as we want, but it won't be enough to feed that ungrateful family."
Feng Mian refused, "No need, I cooked meat tonight."
If she guessed correctly, their old lady would come and make a fuss even if the meat was cooked in the pot.
Lu Lan cut three pounds of meat to stew at home, and there was a large piece left, which she left with Feng Mian.
Feng Mian cut some lean meat from his two pounds of meat and prepared to make stir-fried pork with green peppers.
In the evening, in addition to stir-fried pork with green peppers, she also stewed a sea cucumber and pigeon soup for herself.
The original owner was too thin and malnourished, so she needed to take supplements.
The remaining meat, including Lu Lan's piece, was marinated with salt and put into a jar to marinate.
Just as I finished my work, I heard another knock on the door.
There are so many things going on today.
Fengmian locked the vat into the slate cupboard.
"Who is it?"
"Feng Mian, open the door quickly."
Feng Mian was startled. From the voice, he realized it was Lu Lan's mother-in-law, Old Lady Qian.
Not a good person.
Feng Mian opened the door and saw an old woman with an evil look on her face.
She still asked politely: "Aunt, what's the matter?"
"The meat that our baby got came from you, didn't it?"
Feng Mian looked at Lu Lan in the distance, winked at her repeatedly, and rubbed his hands.
She actually understood what she meant.
I guess there wasn't enough meat in the pot, and Old Mrs. Qian noticed it.
The way Lu Lan rubbed her hands was clearly a sign of money.
So Feng Mian said, "I'm getting married on the sixth day of the first lunar month, so I bought a few pounds of meat from Sister Lan."
Old Mrs. Qian gritted her teeth and asked, "What about the money?"
"The money is given to Sister Lan."
Lu Lan said hurriedly, "The money is here. I can't give it to you. I want to buy some cloth for Rongrong to make a new dress."
Old Mrs. Qian said angrily, "Why would a money-loser need new clothes? What she is wearing is not clothes."
"Look at her clothes. They can't even cover her arms and legs."
"Don't you know how to get some strips of cloth to make it longer?"
Lu Lan pulled Feng Rongrong's clothes and said, "This sleeve is stitched, Mom, can you leave a way out for your granddaughter?"
"Oh, you're saying that. It's like I'm going to force you to death. I just asked you for some money. I've raised my son to this age, shouldn't he be filial to me?"
As she was talking, Mrs. Qian started to throw a tantrum, "Feng Feng, you are talking nonsense. Look at what kind of girl you married into the Feng family? She can't even give birth to a child, and she wants to piss off your mother to death. Are you going to do anything about it?"
Feng Feng blushed and said to Lu Lan who was crying, "Wife, just give the money to my mother."
Lu Lan was so angry, "Money, money, money, where did the money come from? You took all the money. I won't give you these dollars no matter what. I want to make clothes for Rongrong. She hasn't worn a decent piece of clothing in three years."
