Divorce with three kids? I'll build a house and eat meat, driving my in-laws crazy.

Chapter 57 This is called barbecue
Er Ya's words made everyone fall into deep thought.

Pan Dayan shouted, "Er Ya is right. Chen Sanbao did nothing but beat and scold the children and not feed them. He doesn't deserve to be the father of three girls."

Li Ruru chuckled and covered her mouth, saying, "Aunt Pan, you're wrong."

Pan Dayan was stunned. "Damn it, I was trying to help you, why are you trying to sabotage me?"

Li Ruru coughed and said seriously, "Chen Sanbao didn't contribute nothing either."

Chen Sanbao looked up, almost in tears. This damned woman finally realized how good he was.

She must be unable to live without him and wants to go back to their home, which is why she spoke up for him.

Well, that must be the case.

Chen Sanbao snorted coldly. Even if Li Ruru knelt down and begged him for three days and three nights, he would never let her enter the Chen family again.

While Chen Sanbao was still lost in thought, he heard Li Ruru say, "Chen Sanbao contributed a penis."

Everyone: "..." Huh? What does that mean?
"Hahaha, you're absolutely right, little sister." Pan Dayan understood her dirty joke and couldn't stop laughing.

The others gradually realized what was happening, and the crowd erupted in laughter.

The three girls couldn't understand, but seeing their mother laughing happily, they laughed along with her.

Xiao Yishan and Chu Xiu exchanged a glance, and each of them twitched their lips.

Xiao Wu is so happy. Since coming to Chenjia Village, he has been living a good life.

There's not much work to do, the food is good, and you can enjoy watching gossip and jokes every day. Life couldn't be better.

No one expected that Li Ruru, who usually seemed so gentle and mild-mannered, would be so outspoken.

Only the Chen family members turned ashen-faced from her laughter.

Chen Sanbao felt he had suffered a great humiliation. He was clearly the father of three worthless men, so how could he suddenly be worth only a dick?
What did he become? Li Ruru's toy?

"Li, what are you so smug about? You may wish you had it, but do you actually have it?"

Li Ruru shrugged: "I don't have it, and I don't want to."

Chen Bingxiao was so angry his nose almost crooked; this daughter-in-law was simply shameless.

How dare you say such shameless things in public, you damned whore!

He cursed Li Ruru in his heart, opened his arms to Sanya and said, "Sanya, come here, come to Grandpa, Grandpa will give you candy."

Sanya was riding on Xiao Yishan's shoulders watching the show when she heard this and patted his hand.

"Brother Yishan, I want to go down."

Xiao Yishan remained unmoved; he couldn't hand over the sweet and tender Sanya to that old geezer Chen Bingxiao.

He might be harboring some wicked scheme.

Li Ruru nodded to him. Although Sanya was young, she was not stupid. Xiao Yishan had no choice but to let her down.

Sanya happily ran up to Chen Bingxiao and held out her hand, asking, "Where's the candy?"

Chen Bingxiao naturally didn't have any candy; it was just a way to coax a child.

He knew Sanya had a sweet tooth, and sure enough, he came over as soon as he called her.

"Sanya, Grandpa loves you the most. You'll have to take care of Grandpa in his old age, right?"

Sanya was speechless. "Don't we have my uncles and my dad?"

Chen Bingxiao continued, "You have to come too. You're a child of the Chen family, not some Zhang or Li family. You can't change your surname, understand?"

"Will the Chen family's children be beaten if they don't get candy or food?" Sanya asked, tilting her head.

"Nonsense, that's not true. If you're not filial to me, you'll be drowned in other people's spittle." Chen Bingxiao's patience was gradually running out.

Sanya shoved him away, "Is this how it's flooded? Ugh!"

Sanya spat in Chen Bingxiao's face and then ran happily to Xiao Yishan.

Xiao Yishan patted her head and said, "Sanya, you're great. You did a good job. I'll buy you candy tomorrow."

Sanya immediately laughed upon hearing this, and then said to Chen Bingxiao, "Did you hear that? Brother Yishan will buy me candy, and Mother and Sister will buy me candy too. I don't want any, and I don't want Father either!"

Li Ruru, who transmigrated and became a mother without pain, experienced firsthand what it means for a child to melt your heart. Sanya was simply too adorable; how could such a cute child be hers?

She has three of these adorable creatures.

The two constables finally managed to stop laughing and recover from Li Ruru's lewd jokes.

"Ahem, ahem." One of the constables resumed his cold expression and said to Chen Sanbao, "Put your fingerprints on it."

Zhao continued to throw a tantrum on the ground. She couldn't change anything, so she could only vent her dissatisfaction, try to gain sympathy, and confuse the public.

Seeing that he could not rely on his parents and that his eldest and second brothers had remained silent throughout the process, Chen Sanbao could only helplessly press his fingerprints.

This farce has finally come to a satisfactory end.

As the two constables finished collecting the documents and were about to leave, Chu Xiu came over, patted them on the shoulder, and whispered, "Well done. When you get back, change their household registrations as well."

He handed the two a letter, saying, "This is for my father. It contains the new names of the three girls, and also a letter to Aunt Li to arrange a female household registration."

A female household is a household registered separately for women.

This is equivalent to a modern household registration book where the head of household is a woman, and there is no male head of household.

The conditions for women in Da Tang to marry a man are quite demanding.

Widows are generally from female households, but there are also religious groups such as nuns and Taoist nuns.

The money earned by women in households belongs to them; no one else can take a share.

Li Ruru happened to overhear this and was somewhat moved. "Chu Xiu, you are such a good child. But isn't this putting your father in a difficult position? After all, he is just a businessman. If he can't do it, then so be it."

The two constables stared wide-eyed; this Lady Li had no idea that her young master was the son of the county magistrate.

Chu Xiu calmly replied, "My father and I will do our best."

His father didn't need to exert himself; he could just ask someone to do it.

Li Ruru didn't know how to thank him, so she said, "I'll give you two extra chicken legs tonight."

Li Ruru led everyone back home. The house was almost finished, and now only the roof was left to be installed.

The three maids ran over to look, and the eldest maid exclaimed, "Mother, this house is so nice!"

The floor was actually covered with blue bricks, and the walls were plastered again with mud wrapped around wheat straw.

Li Ruru patted Chu Xiu on the shoulder and exclaimed again, "You are truly a great contributor to our family. I'll give you three extra chicken drumsticks today."

Chu Xiu felt a little embarrassed after hearing this. He touched his stomach and said, "Now that you mention it, I am actually a little hungry."

Haha, everyone laughed happily.

By evening, all the rooms were cleaned up, and the workers went home.

Li Ruru didn't cook in the kitchen today; instead, she started a fire in the middle of the yard.

Under her direction, Xiao Yishan picked up a few stones and built a rectangle.

Li Ruru took a large iron plate from her spatial storage, placed it on the plate, and began to roast the chicken.

The cut chicken pieces were brushed with a layer of sauce, and they sizzled and dripped with oil.

She then shaved a lot of bamboo skewers for everyone to skewer the meat and vegetables.

The meat consisted of chicken and pork belly, and most of the vegetables were grown in the yard, with some brought by Li Ruru from her spatial storage.

She noticed that the children were no longer paying attention to what she was taking out; they were only staring at the food.

And she spends her days browsing the market and buying things, so it's not surprising that she brings out anything.

While helping to skewer the potato slices, Chu Xiu asked, "Auntie, can this iron rack cook meat?"

Li Ruru said, "Of course, this is called barbecue, it's delicious. Oh, and this too."

As she spoke, she took out several cups filled with a yellow, bubbling liquid.

"What is this?" Xiao Yishan asked, frowning. Why was that thing yellow and bubbling?
