Last night, the ewe at home gave birth to a lamb. When the children at home found out in the morning, they clamored to go see it. On such a day, they had to dress the little ones before they could go out.

It was not good for the children to stay at home all day. As long as it was not snowing outside, Cao Xiangnan would let the children go out after dressing them up, and let them run around outside, enjoy the cold wind, and build snowmen. This was the childhood of children. He tried his best to satisfy the children at home.

Before he knew it, it was the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

After hearing Uncle Liu say that Sun Ji had come, Cao Xiangnan went inside. As soon as he entered the house, he saw Sun Ji sitting there. He wanted to make a joke, but he looked unhappy. He knew that he had come back and knew that a room full of relatives had come to his house. He was afraid that he was in a bad mood. He sat down at the opposite seat and asked, "When did you come back?"

"I came back yesterday. Xiangnan, Chen Yu and I have divorced." Sun Ji's face was expressionless when he said this. He didn't seem sad or upset, but there was confusion in his eyes. Until now, even he himself didn't know why he wanted to get married. They divorced after just two days.

Cao Xiangnan was stunned when he heard Sun Ji say that he was divorced. He thought Sun Ji was in a bad mood after seeing a room full of relatives, and he didn't think Sun Ji would go to the point of divorce. He said, "This matter is also my fault. I let you go to Nanyang when you were newly married, and you have been gone for such a long time..."

"No, Xiangnan, this matter is not your fault. I wanted to go by myself. Don't say that. This matter can't be attributed to you. It has nothing to do with you at all." Sun Ji interrupted Cao Xiangnan and said seriously.

This matter is not to blame others, and it is only himself.

Although he was angry at the Chen family's roguery and shamelessness, when Chen Yu left, he still gave Chen Yu ten taels of silver, which was also a compensation for Chen Yu. The Chen family's affairs made him unhappy, so he just drove the people away, and it was not to the point of divorcing Chen Yu. He was unwilling to live with Chen Yu, and he couldn't live with a boy. After all, he was sorry for Chen Yu.

After a good boy divorced his husband, his reputation was ruined. It didn't matter whether he married or not in his life, but he made a mistake. Fortunately, he didn't meet Chen Yu at the beginning. If he met a good one, it would not be difficult to find a good family in the future.

Seeing Sun Ji's bad face, Cao Xiangnan didn't know how to comfort him. They had already divorced, and he knew that the Chen family was confused. To be honest, he didn't like that family.

But this marriage was finally arranged, and they divorced again so hastily. Isn't it unacceptable? Sun Ji was not young in this era. He asked, "What are your plans for the future?" He

asked if Sun Ji planned to find someone else to live with.

"Let's talk about it later. Let's not consider it for now." Sun Ji was not in the mood.

The purpose of getting married was just to fulfill the wishes of his grandparents. Now he has tried and found that he can't do it at all. I don't know why, after these things happened and he divorced Chen Yu, he felt relieved.

He turned his head and took a look. When Wanfeng and the children were not there, he asked them where they had gone.

"They are all watching the sheep in the backyard. The ewes gave birth to lambs last night, and the little ones ran out to see the lambs." Just as he was talking about Cao Cao, Cao Cao appeared. As soon as Cao Xiangnan started talking, he heard the sound of them coming back.

A group of people came in from the back door. A group of children ran in front. Qi Wanfeng and Aning followed behind with two children in their arms.

"Uncle, can Xuanxuan take the lamb home to raise it?" Xuanxuan, who was running in front, rushed in first. This was the first time he had seen such a cute lamb in his life and he wanted to take it home.

As soon as he ran in and saw another uncle sitting in the house, Xuanxuan stopped and stood there.

When An An, who was following behind, heard Xuan Xuan say that he wanted to take his lamb home, he yelled, "No, no, I won't give you the lamb..." An An rushed over and bumped into Xuan Xuan who was standing in front of him. Fortunately, he didn't fall down. The two children hugged each other and giggled.

"Be careful, don't fall." Cao Xiangnan saw the two little guys running back, and there were two more following behind. He asked, "What do you want to say to Uncle Sun Ji when he comes back? Hmm?"

"Hello, Uncle Sun Ji." Several children asked in unison.

Sun Ji smiled and responded. He was very happy to see the group of children in Sun Ji's family. He waved his hand and An An ran into his arms without any hesitation. He just heard them talking about sheep, so he asked, "Is the little lamb cute?"

"Yeah, it's very cute." When the child mentioned his favorite things, he chattered non-stop, and Sun Ji listened carefully with a smile in his eyes.

Qi Wanfeng, who came in from behind, saw Sun Ji coming back, greeted him, put down the little Baoer in his arms and let him walk by himself. As soon as the little Baoer got off the ground, he kissed his father's thigh, smiled with his little mouth open and showed a few little milk teeth, and rushed over.

Cao Xiangnan took the child accurately with one hand and rubbed the child's face with his face. It was still a little cold after the wind outside. He reached in and took out the child's hand and touched it. His hand was still not cold, and his body would not be cold either.

"Oh, little Bao can walk now? It's been so long since we last saw him." Sun Ji hadn't seen little Bao for long. The child was growing up day by day, and he changed after not seeing him for a while.

"That's right, children grow up fast, and when they grow up, we will be old." Cao Xiangnan said.

Aning and Sun Ji were not strangers either. When they saw Sun Ji coming back, they asked him about it. He put Lele, who was wearing many clothes and had a round body, on a chair and poured hot water for the children. He also added two firewoods to the stove to make the fire burn more vigorously. They were still cold after coming back from outside.

He waited for the children to stay in the house for a while before taking off their outer coats.

Sun Ji didn't stay long. He talked to Cao Xiangnan about the business in Nanyang City. He had a lot of things to do at home, so he went back first.

"Wouldn't you like to sit for a while? You just arrived and you're leaving." Qi Wanfeng heard that he was leaving, so he wanted to keep him for a while. "

No, I have things to do at home. I'll come back later when I'm free."

"Okay, I'll come when I'm

free." Cao Xiangnan sent him out and comforted him. It was nothing serious. It was just a divorce. People in his era divorced if they were not suitable. In this small Caojia Village, divorce was rare. He saw that Sun Ji had no intention of living with him, otherwise he would not have stayed away from home after getting married. If he couldn't live like this, he shouldn't force himself. There would be more days to come, right? It

was just a coincidence that it snowed heavily before the New Year, and the roads were difficult to travel. There were probably too many things going on in Nanyang City, so it was normal that Sun Ji couldn't spare the time to come back, otherwise this wouldn't have happened.

He patted the man's shoulder and said, "I wanted to ask you to come over for dinner tonight, but you didn't come back for the New Year, so stay home with your family tonight. I'll cook some delicious dishes tomorrow, and we two brothers can have a good drink."

"Okay, let's drink tomorrow." Sun Ji also knew that he didn't come back for the New Year, so he stayed at home to spend the Lantern Festival with his family.

The two of them made an appointment to have dinner together tomorrow.

Their place is a small place, and the Lantern Festival is not very lively. Some people in the town also made lanterns to sell. In this cold weather, Cao Xiangnan did not plan to take his family to the town. He planned to make a Kongming lantern to set off, and the children were also happy.

Kongming lanterns are not difficult to make. He sold Kongming lanterns when he was in college. He can make it himself if he prepares the materials.

"Can this thing really be put up in the sky?" Qi Wanfeng asked a little doubtfully when he saw what her husband was making.

Can such a thing be put up in the sky? He was deeply skeptical.

"We'll know in the evening, maybe." Cao Xiangnan blinked and asked, "If I can put it up, what reward will I get?" Qi Wanfeng

glared at her husband, knowing that he was not serious. Seeing that her husband was messing with his things with the kids, he couldn't help much, so he just glanced and went back to work.

The family was happy, and the children were all very happy.

In the afternoon, Cao Gang, Wang Dahu and others went to the mountain to hunt, and caught several rabbits, pheasants, and a roe deer, just enough game to add to the dishes. Cao Gang's father-in-law and mother-in-law came to Cao Gang's place, so they cooked at home, took the game and went back, leaving the rest here for him.

The dinner was still rich. Although Cao Gang's family didn't come, there were still many people in their house. The rabbits they hunted were boiled into soup. The soup was white, fresh and delicious. The children in the family drank a lot. Several wild game dishes were made. The table was full of meat. It happened that several Chinese characters loved meat, so they didn't have to worry about not being able to finish it. If they didn't finish it, they could pack it up and take it away.

After dinner, it was dark, so they set up Kongming lanterns in the yard.

The lit lanterns rose up, and the children cheered below. Cao Xiangnan looked up at the rising lanterns, and there was a wish in his heart, hoping that the dead person would be well in the next life, be reborn into a good family, and live happily in the next life.

He reached out to the people around him. He was lucky to come here and meet Qi Wanfeng, and then he had a home. Although this happiness was robbed from others, he did not intend to give it back.

"Husband?" Qi Wanfeng looked at her husband in confusion, wondering what was wrong with her husband.

Cao Xiangnan smiled, leaned over and kissed his wife, and said, "I am very happy to have you."

Qi Wanfeng smiled, and so did he.

After releasing the lantern, Wang Dahu, Liu Baishu and other men ate their fill and went back with full bellies. On the way back, Liu Baishu was still thinking about the Kongming lantern.

The night passed like this.

Everyone has their own happiness, and unfortunate people always have their own misfortunes.
