Divorced by her husband's family and rejected by her own! She defiantly turned her life around

Zao Hua's tears flowed uncontrollably as she sat next to her father. "Dad, I heard everything at the door just now. This is no small injury! We must get it treated."

Nobody bullied me. I came back to discuss something with you.

"What's wrong, daughter? Tell me, Dad's listening."

She repeated Liu Siyue's words, "Father, Mother, Little Brother, what do you think?"

"This is of course a fantastic thing for our family, but they've really suffered a huge loss. Aren't we being a bit shameless? How are we going to repay them for taking advantage of them?"

"Father, April is a magnanimous person. Her family owns a lot of land. You should go and help her with the work."

Young man, what do you think of this marriage?

"I'm not picky as long as the girl likes me."

"Mother, pack your things now, let's leave right now, the carriage is still parked outside!"

"Where is the carriage from?"

"It's from the April family."

While Bai's mother was tidying up, Zao Hua told her mother about Liujia Village.

Bai's mother nodded repeatedly, thinking that Siyue was a capable girl.

"Mother, we must keep this a secret and never tell anyone."

"Mom will be a bit difficult in August, so we'll listen to April then, and you don't need to say anything."

"Okay, okay, we won't say anything."

Bai Qiming carried his father on his back, while his mother took a small bundle, locked the door, and the family of four headed out of the village.

"Zaohua is such a filial child; she's taking her father to the city for treatment!"

"Yes, Auntie, if my father's injury isn't treated soon, his leg will be crippled."

"Sigh, having a daughter is so comforting, unlike my sons, none of them are easy to deal with."

The couple had a wonderful daughter; they're going to enjoy their retirement now!

Bai's mother quickly chimed in, "Which of your sons and daughters-in-law isn't filial? Don't take your blessings for granted."

The woman chuckled, "Our children are all well and filial. You should hurry up and see a doctor, don't delay."

"Sister Zaohua, you're back! What happened to Uncle?"

"My dad hurt his leg. Let's hurry back to the village and have Doctor Wu take a look."

Bai Qiming placed the person on the carriage. "Mother, you and my younger brother take care of Father in the carriage. Qingye and I will drive the carriage outside."

The car was moving rather slowly on the way back. By the time we arrived at Liujia Village, it was already late afternoon, and some families had already started preparing dinner.

Zaohua arranged for her younger brother and father to stay in Yu's mother's room, and then hurried off to fetch Doctor Wu.

When Dr. Wu came to take a look, he said, "Your wound has been there for three or four days, and it's already red, swollen, and ulcerated."

"Bear with it, let me clean your wound first."

Dr. Wu started working there, and Zao Hua hurried to Si Yue's place to pick up the child.

"Sister-in-law, we've been waiting for you to come back! Your Gouwa recognizes people. Not long after you left, he started crying and looking for his mother. Look at his little eyes, they're all swollen from crying, and he's still sneezing."

"Uncle, you hurt your leg, right? I'll go with you to take a look."

"No need, no need. Dr. Wu is examining my father right now. We'll have a proper meeting tomorrow."

"Okay, my mom and I will go over after breakfast tomorrow."

When Zaohua returned home, Doctor Wu had already begun setting his father's bones, and the girl had started cooking porridge.

"Dr. Wu, how is my father's leg? Can it be cured?"

"There's a high chance it can be cured, but if it's delayed by another two days, then it's hard to say."

The bones have all been set. I'll prescribe some medicine; please take it as prescribed. I'll come back to check on you in a few days.

"How much are the consultation fee and medication cost?"

"I'll give you 500 coins."

"Uncle Wu, can I owe you this money for now? My mother took all the money with her when she went to the county town a few days ago."

"Then I'll owe you for now, and you can pay me back whenever you have the money."

"Thank you, Uncle Wu."

"Young man, go with Uncle Wu to get the medicine."

"Dad, how are you feeling?"

"Everything's fine. The doctor said Dad's leg is okay, he's doing great, so don't worry."

"Dad, you always say nice things to comfort me."

"Come, let me see my eldest grandson."

"You'd better not hug him. It might hurt your wound. You can hug him after your injury has healed."

Bai Qiming returned with the medicine. His mother took the medicine and told everyone to eat quickly, and then she would brew the medicine after the meal.

Liu Siyue came to her eldest sister's room, her face full of excitement. "Eldest sister, I have good news for you. I've found a family for August. Tomorrow, my mother and I will go and take a look first, and then we'll bring the family over for you to see."

If my eldest sister also thinks he's a good person, then we'll have August meet him. If both of them are willing, we'll arrange the marriage and have their families propose.

"You found someone for August so quickly? You're not just making things up, are you?"

"Big sister, what are you thinking? No matter what, August is still my sister. How could I fool her? I'm just being efficient."

"Okay, you're efficient. Now tell me about this family."

Liu Siyue then recounted the story of Zaohua's family and her own plans.

"Big sister, what do you think of my idea?"

"The idea is definitely a good one, but I feel bad for letting you down. I hope you will cherish this kindness in August."

"Big sister, if we both like this person tomorrow, but not in August, then I don't plan to care anymore. Let her do whatever she wants."

"Okay, I trust August. She's not the kind of person who doesn't know what's good for her."

The next day, after breakfast, Liu Siyue and Feng Shi took two bags of pastries and a dozen eggs to Zao Hua's house. After all, Zao Hua's father was injured, and it was only natural to take something to visit him.

"Auntie, April, you've arrived! Please come inside and have a seat."

"Father, Mother, Aunt Feng and April have arrived."

"Auntie, you're here. Please have a seat. Thank you for taking care of Zaohua."

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Zaohua introduced, "This is my younger brother, Bai Qiming."

"Qiming, this is Aunt Feng, and this is April. You should call her Sister April."

Bai Qiming was a little embarrassed, his face turning bright red. "Hello, Aunt Feng. Hello, Sister Siyue."

Hello, hello!

Madam Feng and Liu Siyue looked Bai Qiming over. The name was quite good; Qiming meant to open the light and bring hope.

He was of average appearance, not handsome but not bad-looking either. He was tall and thin with dark skin, and looked like a farmer.

"Qiming, what do you usually do at home?" Madam Feng asked.

"All I know is farming, nothing else. When I'm free, I go to the mountains to catch some game to sell."

"Your sister called you over this time, she must have told you what she wanted to do, right?"

"My sister said she'd find me a husband."

What are your thoughts on your marriage?

"My family is poor, and I don't have any special skills. As long as a girl likes me, I will treat her well for the rest of my life."

Liu Siyue teased him, saying, "Even if that girl were ugly, you would still treat her well for the rest of your life."

"As long as she has a good heart and is good to my parents, I don't care about her appearance. I'm willing to spend my whole life with her and be good to her for the rest of my life."

I'm already very content that our family is well-off enough to afford a wife.

Hmm, he's quite honest and self-aware, but being too honest isn't good either. He needs to work on himself in the future, Liu Siyue thought to herself.

"Uncle, Aunt, what are your thoughts on the matter I mentioned to Sister-in-law Zaohua before?"

"I'm willing to move to Liujia Village. We have no objection to Qiming's marriage, as long as the two children are willing."

"Uncle and Aunt, I'd like to bring Qiming to my house so my eldest sister can meet him. If she has no objections, I'd like him to meet my younger sister and see if they're meant to be."
