His willingness to compromise when his daughter was forced into marriage was a sign of his own incompetence; he had no one to blame but himself. It was all his fault. As the head of the family, he failed to properly discipline his daughter and, more importantly, failed to protect her…
He is the one who deserves to die alone and without a proper burial.
His words silenced everyone in the hall and those outside.
No one expected him to side with his daughter and even want to divorce Sun.
And he left with nothing.
Sun Yingyun was also stunned, her face turning pale.
Ultimately, Magistrate Lu sentenced Sun Yingyun to twenty strokes of the cane and three years in prison.
The two then divorced.
Yan Xia stood outside the county government office, somewhat dazed. This was too smooth! Had the original owner's father finally come to his senses?
But that's none of her business; she's not a saint.
The original owner of this body is already dead, so he will spend his whole life atoning for his sins.
Yan Xia gave him a deep look, then turned and left.
No turning back.
After several twists and turns, it was already evening, and the sky was getting dark.
Yan Xia returned to the shop and immediately went to her daughter-in-law's room to see if she had woken up.
"Mom, you're back!"
As soon as she opened the door, she saw her daughter-in-law, who looked somewhat weak, smiling at her.
"Yes, you're back. Does it still hurt? Has the bleeding stopped? Let Mom take a look."
Shi Xiaohe, who was originally lying on her side, obediently lay down, but the swaying of her body still aggravated her wound. She hissed softly, which Yan Xia heard clearly.
He lifted the inner garment she had just changed into.
I could only see that the area around the wound was slightly red, and the center was covered with brown powder. I couldn't see if the wound had healed, but it wasn't bleeding anymore.
It seems to have stopped.
fine....
"Xiaohe, don't scare your mother next time. Actually, your mother can avoid it, you know? You're pregnant. Even if you weren't pregnant, you can't risk your life to save others. The premise of saving others is to protect yourself first. This time, stay in bed and rest to recover and protect the pregnancy. You're not allowed to get out of bed to work. I know you're hardworking and can't stay idle. Just think of it as your own health and for your mother's sake. You can get out of bed after 49 days, do you hear me? However, I'll allow you to walk around the house for a couple of days after that, so your legs won't get uncomfortable from not walking for a long time."
Yan Xia's worried expression made Shi Xiaohe's eyes redden.
"I'm sorry, Mother, I was just too scared. Her hairpin was aimed straight at you, I was afraid..."
Shi Xiaohe hesitated, afraid that something might happen to her mother.
Even if she gets hurt, I can't let my mother get hurt...
[Target person detected]
Name: Shi Xiaohe
Age: Sixteen
[Affection Level: 100]
[Congratulations, host! 100 points have been credited to your account. Your points account balance is now 200.]
The familiar mechanical voice rang out once again.
The eldest daughter-in-law's favorability rating is already at full marks.
"Mom isn't blaming you, Mom is just worried about you, you know? Just like you worry about me. Mom is strong, so if something like this happens again, don't get involved, Mom can handle it. Don't make Mom worry anymore, okay?"
Yan Xia touched her beautiful hair.
With enough nutrition every day, Xiaohe's dry hair became smooth.
It feels very comfortable to touch.
"Yes, Mother, I promise you, from now on I will protect myself first, and then protect you."
Xiao He nodded heavily, unsure whether what she said was true or false.
Yan Xia comforted her before leaving the room to have dinner.
When she was almost poked today, she also noticed her other children, who all rushed towards her, including her younger brother.
Xiaohe was closer, and she was faster.
That's how he got injured.
This detail instantly soothed Yan Xia's agitated mind and body.
I had a wonderful dream last night.
I dreamt that she had won over everyone in her family, returned to the modern world with a huge sum of money, bought a big villa, drove a Ferrari, didn't go to work every day, and traveled around everywhere. I even laughed out loud in my dream.
Baihua Village at this time.
After returning home with his children and grandchildren, Yan Hecheng packed up his bedding and clothes and went to the dilapidated temple.
Even though his family tried to stop him, he was determined to leave.
"Remember to live well, Chun'er. You're a grandfather now, so be sensible. When your mother gets out, take good care of her. When you see me in the future, treat me like a stranger. And don't bother your sister anymore. You've seen what happened to your mother, so I won't try to persuade you any further. I'm leaving now."
After saying that, he opened the courtyard gate and left without looking back.
They didn't take a single grain of food.
In winter, all things fall into slumber, and it is unknown how he will survive.
The scene shifts from the dilapidated temple to Cui Siniu's house.
It seems like there's some happy occasion at her house today; they even cooked meat dishes, which is quite unusual for them.
Before going to bed that night, Luo Bai brought water to Zhao Yuefang's room to wash her feet.
"Yuefang, the doctor said you're already a month and a half pregnant. It seems that at your house that day... you were already carrying the baby..."
His face turned bright red.
Even though they've been married for a month, he's still very shy when the topic comes up.
"Ugh, you're always talking nonsense. Hurry up and wash your feet, I'm feeling a bit unwell and want to sleep."
Zhao Yuefang is actually two and a half months pregnant.
She had planned to bribe a traditional Chinese medicine doctor to come to her home for a diagnosis two weeks ago, but her mother-in-law was always watching her, making it impossible for her to do so.
It only took half a month to get through.
She'll be showing in half a month. Luckily it's winter, so she'll be wearing thick clothes and deliberately eating less, so it shouldn't be noticeable.
Luo Lubai was so green he was practically glowing, yet he was completely unaware of it.
In the darkness, he held his wife close as they fell asleep.
Sleeping in the same bed but dreaming different dreams...
As dawn broke, a layer of white frost covered the ground.
It was a bit chilly in the early morning.
There were far fewer people on the streets than in autumn.
The temperature has dropped to around five degrees Celsius.
The cold wind chilled my hands to the bone.
It's cool and shady.
Yan Xia was caught off guard when her eldest daughter-in-law suddenly became pregnant. Winter here was spent shivering, unlike in the northernmost towns where people could store firewood to heat the heated floor.
Yan Xia was drawing blueprints inside the room.
As soon as the shops on the street opened, she took the three blueprints and headed straight for the blacksmith shop.
Several iron furnaces were custom-made.
And custom-made iron pots and pans for their own restaurant.
Because of the high demand, it took three blacksmith shops to barely meet the needs.
Yan Xia started looking for 'renovation' workers again.
Although Brother Qian from Baihua Village can also build houses, he can only do simple tasks.
As for home renovation, I know absolutely nothing about it.
Fortunately, the workers who renovated her pastry shop are temporarily out of work.
Yan Xia took out some silver and blueprints and asked them to renovate the restaurant again.
The counter on the first floor remains unchanged, but an additional door leading to the backyard is added. The left door leads to the yard, which is also known as the staff passage, and customers are not allowed to enter. The right door leads directly to the outhouse, which is separated by a fence so that the backyard cannot be seen. The two outhouses are not used together and are separated for men and women. The manure piles in the outhouses are collected regularly by people who mostly own farmland.
Who wouldn't want free farmyard manure?
There is also a handwashing station on the outside.
