"I'm from Jianming's family, Xu Xiang."
It would have been fine if she hadn't said anything, but once she did, Shen Wu became even more confused: "Sister-in-law, just say whatever you want to say."
The woman was also a little embarrassed: "I went back to my parents' home early this morning. Your mother and father went to my house and asked me to tell you..."
She looked at the group of people and said a little embarrassedly: "This is your family's matter, why don't we talk about it somewhere else?"
Everyone stared with wide eyes, waiting to eat melons, without waiting for Chen Wu to speak.
While making tiger-head shoes for the child, Mai Miao's mother said, "Just tell us what happened yesterday. Are you afraid of losing face?"
"You are the messenger, so no one will be angry with you."
Chen Wu also said: "Yes, let's talk about it here. What happened yesterday was also thanks to our villagers. I don't want to hide it."
We need to publicize it.
Since Chen Wu herself said so, the man said, "Your parents said that your younger brother will get married after the New Year, and they want you to give them thirty yuan. If you don't give it, you can stop recognizing them as your parents."
"You don't even need to visit them during the New Year. I've unilaterally severed ties with you. From now on, if you suffer any grievances or get beaten here, your brother won't be able to help you. No one will back you up."
Some people took a deep breath when they heard that the relationship was going to be severed.
Nowadays, people generally put parents and elders first and filial piety first. When people heard this, they started talking about it.
Mai Miao Niang said, "Then you can save money on buying gifts for the New Year."
"Mai Miao Niang, how can you talk like that?"
"After all, it belongs to my parents. Even if the bones are broken, the tendons are still connected. Can it really sever the relationship?"
Maimiao Niang was sewing shoe soles, pulling out a long thread. When she heard someone contradict her, she glared at the person who was speaking and said, "Then give her thirty yuan."
The man immediately fell silent, then said unconvincedly, "It's not my business, why should I pay you?"
"That's not your business, so what do you think?" Mai Miao Niang asked back.
"This is the mother's fault, you can't blame the daughter for being unfilial."
As she spoke, Mai Miao Niang looked at Chen Wu and said, "Don't be sad. Let's solve this problem."
Chen Wu thought that this was what she thought, but she didn't expect that Mai Miao Niang was so straightforward and said it directly.
Shen Wu could only redden her eyes.
"It was your parents who were the ones who gave up on you, not you who were unfilial. Do you hear me?"
Chen Wu nodded with red eyes: "I know, I won't do anything that goes against their wishes. If they don't let me go, then... I won't go."
Shen Wu's voice choked...

Dahe Village.
Mother Shen was still angry: "Xu Xiang should have arrived in Laoya Village by now. Xiao San must have been terrified when she heard that we were going to break off the relationship with her."
Father Shen also nodded: "If you ask me, I shouldn't have let her marry such a family in the first place. That old woman and that man are too much!"
"You said that people in their village said that you let your mistress marry again?"
Mother Shen nodded angrily: “I didn’t say that at all, and I don’t know where that old lady made it up…”
"It doesn't matter whether you say it or not." Father Shen said: "Xiao San will definitely come to apologize during the New Year. When the time comes, find a way to make her divorce."
Mother Shen listened to her man's words and didn't react for a moment: "Ah?"
"Why let her divorce? Why does she come back to bite us?"
Father Shen thought she was just stupid, and shook his head and said, "We gave birth to a beautiful mistress, and we only want a fifty-yuan betrothal gift. Are you willing to do that?"
"My in-laws are domineering and have many brothers. I can't beat them, so I might as well persuade the mistress to divorce."
"The mistress is pretty, and even if she's divorced, she won't have trouble finding a husband. Not to mention the men in the county who've lost their wives, they want to marry her and offer a lot of money. Let's not talk about that. What do you think Zhou Huai is doing in Laoya Village? Isn't it just because he can't forget our daughter..."
Mother Shen finally reacted at this moment: “You said, let the mistress divorce and marry again?”
Father Shen nodded: "Divorce is not shameful. Their second sister-in-law got divorced, and it caused a lot of uproar."
"By then, others will only envy our daughter for marrying well and being able to help the family."
The more Father Shen thought about it, the more he felt it was feasible. He stood up and said, "This son-in-law is too unreliable. It's okay to change him."
"The eldest daughter is easy to talk to. If you go to her and complain about your poverty, just say that it's not easy for you either. You don't have money and Ji Zu can't find a wife..."
Mother Shen said: “Okay, even the old family doesn’t have much money.”
"You have no idea how magnificent Xiaosan's house is, but she wouldn't even invite me in. What an ungrateful person!"

Rumors in the countryside are harmful. Chen Wu had long wanted to have nothing to do with that family. It was surprising that all this happened so smoothly.
She is a little white flower in front of others.
As soon as Xu Yin and I returned, I couldn't stop smiling, with the corners of my mouth raised: "Tell me, how could such a good thing happen?"
"Then when I go to my mother's house during the New Year, I will go alone. I will find an opportunity to beat up your brother again. Why does he benefit from sucking blood?"
Chen Wu clapped her hands: "Hit harder."
No matter what the original body thought, she had no good feelings towards this younger brother who got all the benefits.
It's getting dark.
Those who went to the county town also came back one after another. Lu Tao rode his bike directly to Xu Yin's place, with Tao Xing on the back seat.
Lu Tao got out of the car: "I've asked around. In his condition, he might have to go to the farm for half a year."
"Your old lady wants to use her connections with the Taoxing family to see if she can redeem him with some money."
Lu Tao was very kind to the village's only worker-peasant-soldier university student. He sighed and said, "It would be best if he could redeem her."
Tao Xing's eyes were red. "Brother Lu Ming is the only college student in our village, and he did it for me. He said marrying me would be a grand occasion..."
The Lu family next door.
Old Mrs. Lu seemed to have lost her soul. She said that she was the mother of the seventh child and that was why she was able to go in and speak for a minute.
"Old man, Lao Qi is a filial son. He said that he did this because he saw that others were living a good life and couldn't bear to see us suffer. He is also our college student. We have to find a way to rescue him."
"There are so many people being arrested. This kind of thing can be big or small. We can't just stand by and watch."
Old Man Lu tapped his pipe while smoking: "How much did Old Seven sell it for? Did I give it to you?"
Old Mrs. Lu shook her head.
"No money was found on Old Seven, that's a good thing..."
Of course, no money was found. Lu Cheng had it all with him. Long Yujiao said that he rushed to the county town without stopping and gave Lu Cheng one dollar before he was allowed to see Lao Qi.
When Lu Ming saw that the person coming was Lu Cheng, his eyes almost spit fire.
"Seventh Brother, I'm late. Don't look at me like that. Don't worry, no matter what happens to you in the future, as long as your sister-in-law and I have a bite to eat, we will take care of you and won't let you go hungry..."
Lu Ming understood Lu Cheng's hint without even thinking.
He frowned. He had worked so hard to get into that university and couldn't let it go just like that. But looking at Lu Cheng, he still said nothing. He didn't trust this fifth brother.
I'd better wait for Tao Xing to come. She is devoted to me.
Xu Yin went to work early the next morning. As soon as she left the house, she saw a man standing blankly at the door.
