"Why is it so hard to handle?" Aunt Zhao was puzzled. "Her husband's family won't tolerate her, her mother's family won't support her, and she has no sons. According to the court's laws, she can establish a female household."
Zhao Lizheng shook his head, "I'm not saying it's difficult for a girl to live in a household, but it's hard to do it after she is a female household."
Aunt Zhao asked: "How do you say this?"
"Oh, I know you like to worry about others, but you don't want to think about it, why does that girl in Mingxi set up a female household? Is it not to be able to live peacefully in the village with her three children?"
Li Zheng obviously thought more carefully than Aunt Zhao. He sighed and continued: "The most difficult thing is here. Since ancient times, it has never been heard that a divorced woman can live with her husband's children. How can the three of them be allowed to live together?" It is troublesome for a child to enter Mingxi's account."
Mingxi was considered a news figure in the village. The second daughter-in-law was a little concerned and asked Zhao Lizheng: "What if we go to the county government to sue the Lin family?"
Li Zheng still shook his head, "This kind of thing has always been ignored by the people. If the case is brought to the county government, the county magistrate will at most ask the Lin family to take the children back. By then, Mingxi and her three daughters will be separated. What a good thing? Besides, the Lin family has already married a bride, and the three little girls have entered the Lin family's door and are asking for a living in the hands of the stepmother. I'm afraid they will suffer in the future. "
The second daughter-in-law was disappointed after hearing this, "So, there is nothing we can do..."
The second son of the Zhao family is called Zhao Chuanxing. He immediately said with a smile: "Whatever, we are not familiar with the Ming family anyway, so don't worry about it. The baby you give birth to will have a bitter face!"
The second daughter-in-law touched her swollen belly and glanced at Zhao Chuanxing angrily. They had been married for seven or eight years and their relationship had always been good.
Aunt Zhao said seriously: "We are all from the same village. If we can help, we should naturally help. Besides, your father is the leader of the village. The four of them, mother and daughter, have lived in the village for so long. There needs to be an explanation, otherwise your father will still be held responsible when the court sends people down to check the household population!"
"Well, that's the truth." Zhao Lizheng looked at his third son Zhao Chuanbao, "Let Chuanxing do the work in the fields tomorrow, and you and I will go to the county government office."
Zhao Chuanbao, who had been silent all this time, was stunned, "Dad, I have to go to Hexia Village to pick up Qiaoxiang tomorrow."
Zhao Lizheng's face suddenly darkened, he knocked on the old cigarette stick in his hand, frowned and said: "Whatever you want to pick up, let her come back by herself."
When the third daughter-in-law was mentioned, Aunt Zhao's expression was not very good. She stood up and said, "I'm going to cook, Yunfang. You stew the pork sent by the Ming family. The men in the family have to eat after working in the fields all day." OK."
The second daughter-in-law hurriedly responded and followed Aunt Zhao to the kitchen.
It was already dusk, and as the sun slowly set in the west, smoke rose from every house, and the clouds in the sky were dyed as fiery red.
Dinner is also served here in Mingxi.
Because there were limited cooking facilities at home, she took her children to eat together at her brother-in-law's house.
In order to live up to this rare wild boar meat, her sister-in-law went back to her parents' house to ask for a large spoonful of ancestral yellow sauce, and stewed a pot full of pork belly with the sauce. The mellow meat aroma filled the whole yard, making several children hungry. He couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
Er Zhuang kept spinning around Tian Zhenzhen, unable to sit still at all.
Da Zhuang squatted under the stove and diligently helped add firewood.
"Are you ready? Mom, is the stew ready?"
"It's been a long time, so it should be cooked, right? Can it be eaten, mother?"
Tian Zhenzhen opened the lid of the pot with a serious face, picked up the spatula, and carefully turned the meat.
The soup was gurgling, and every piece of meat was covered in glistening oil. It was moist and soft. She couldn't imagine how delicious it would be when she took a bite.
"Okay, no need to add more firewood." Tian Zhenzhen took a deep breath of the aroma wafting from the pot and commanded, "Dazhuang, go move the stool! Erzhuang, go serve the rice!"
"Great!" Erzhuang jumped up and down with excitement and immediately went to get the bowl and chopsticks.
On a small wooden table, there is a large pot of braised pork belly, a plate of fried vegetables, a plate of cold shredded radish, and a small plate of peanuts. It can be said to be quite rich as a farm rice.
There were not enough stools at home, so Mingsong, Mingxi, and Tian Zhenzhen sat down to eat, Dazhuang and Zhuang squatted down to eat, Ye'er and Manjing ate standing up, and Xiaoxue, the smallest one, sat in Mingxi's arms to eat.
Mingxi picked up a piece of oily and fragrant pork belly and put it in his mouth, hmm~~~
tasty!
It was so delicious that Mingxi's eyes lit up.
I don’t know if it’s because this body hasn’t been touched by oil or meat for a long time, but the braised pork melts in her mouth, the fragrance overflows, and it’s so delicious! ...Of course, there is a slight smell of wild boar, but it’s not a big problem.
Then, Mingxi tasted the fried green vegetables and cold shredded radish, soaked in rain and dew.
...Oh my God! They are all delicious too!
The vegetables are freshly picked from the field, so fresh! Seasoned with just a little salt, the radish is crispy and sweet, and the more you chew it, the more delicious it becomes!
Food makes you feel happy. Mingxi is almost intoxicated after eating this seemingly simple farm dish~
Then she thought: These dishes could be sold at a high price in any restaurant within the federal jurisdiction based on the concept of being pollution-free, original, and pure green!
It’s amazing, I feel happier now!
She sighed while eating, while the two sons of the Ming family had already run to pick up the second bowl of rice.
Tian Zhenzhen's face was a little confused. After all, these meats belonged to her sister-in-law. Her three daughters had small appetites and had not eaten a few bites of meat. However, the two brats in her family almost ate half of the pot. It was outrageous!
"You two, eat less." Tian Zhenzhen frowned and tapped Er Zhuang's bowl with chopsticks.
Erzhuang was going crazy with greed, but he also knew that he couldn't eat all the meat by himself. He held the bowl and begged repeatedly: "Let me pour some soup, I don't eat meat anymore. Mom, let me pour some more soup!"
This broth is also very fragrant when topped with multi-grain rice, and there is a lot of minced meat in the soup!
Mingxi smiled and said: "Er Zhuang, your mother is doing this for your own good. If you usually eat light food and suddenly eat something too greasy, you will easily have diarrhea."
Er Zhuanghun didn't care, "It's okay! Diarrhea is better than just farting!"
Mingxi was slightly stunned.
Just by chance, Er Zhuang let out a loud fart!
Mingxi burst out laughing!
Then Xiaoxue, Manjing, and Yeer also started laughing!
Erzhuang blushed deeply, but he didn't finish the fart, and then let out two small farts. Now even Tian Zhenzhen couldn't help it, and put down the bowl and chopsticks and laughed so hard that he couldn't stand up straight.
The whole family burst into laughter and it took a long time to stop.
Mingsong couldn't remember how long it had been since he smiled like this. It seemed that ever since his sister returned to the village, his family had been shrouded in dark clouds. What he faced every day was either his sister's tears or his wife's complaints.
Now my sister has finally come out of the haze, which is great.
Mingsong wiped the tears from laughter at the corner of his eyes and looked at Mingxi, "Axi...can you tell me now? What happened to that wild boar?"
It's coming, what's supposed to come has finally come.
Ming Xi was silent for a moment, then turned to her eldest daughter and said, "Ye'er, go and close the courtyard door."
"Oh." Ye'er vaguely knew that the adults wanted to talk about business, so she trotted to close the courtyard door.
Ming Xi made some plans silently in her mind. She raised her head and saw everyone staring at her. She took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Brother, do you believe there are gods in this world?"
