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

About fifteen minutes later, the three brothers came out of the house with flushed faces. Their mother gave each of them a portion of the prepared food.

Mother Feng said with a smile, "Now that they're gone, we mothers and daughters can go inside and have some fun."

"Eldest daughter-in-law, prepare the food and drinks for your brother-in-law and the others, then come over."

"Yes, Mother."

The men ate and drank, talking about spring planting and autumn harvest, and gathering herbs in the mountains. The women also ate and drank, laughing constantly, and talked about everyday family matters.

Liu Ruyun and her sisters, along with their uncle's daughters, went to keep the bride company; they couldn't leave the bride alone in an empty room.

Mother Feng couldn't help but sigh, "Your mother has finally completed the life-long marriage arrangements for you six siblings. I hope that you will all live happily ever after."

Your sister-in-law is right. All your uncles have finished their weddings, and now it's your nephews' turn.

If we find a suitable girl, let's arrange the marriage first, and then get them married after we've calmed down.

Yuzhen, your Liujia Village is a big village. If there are any suitable girls, keep an eye out for your nephew.

"You two should also, if there are any good girls in your hometown village, hurry up and let your children meet them, lest they miss out on a good marriage."

"Mother, we all know."

"Little sister, what are your thoughts on the marriages of Ruyun and Ruxue?"

"I can't make decisions about their marriages; the key is that they have to be willing."

"Mother, little sister, my second sister-in-law and I have discussed it. If little sister is willing, our two families can get married. The children will definitely not suffer any losses if they marry into our family."

I noticed today that those brothers are interested in Ruyun and the others.

If my younger sister is willing, we can marry Ruyun and Ruxue into our family. One will marry into the eldest branch of the family, and the other into the second branch. You know our temperaments; we will definitely treat Ruyun and Ruxue like our own daughters. If they do anything wrong, Mother will be watching over them.”

After thinking it over, Feng's mother realized that Ruyun was getting old and it was indeed difficult to find a husband for her. Marrying her cousin would be a good thing. If they delayed any longer, she might end up with some ugly and undesirable person, or she might end up as someone else's second wife.

Given my daughter's current family situation, she certainly won't become someone's second wife or a concubine. If she can't get married, does she want to stay at home as an old maid and be laughed at by others?

"Yuzhen, it's time to settle Ruyun's marriage as soon as possible. As long as we can find a good husband for the child, I, as her maternal grandmother, can rest assured."

Think about what your sister-in-law just said; don't feel pressured.

"Mother, I know you mean well. If this were before, I would definitely have agreed to let Ruyun marry her cousin, but now I wouldn't dare to even if I wanted to."

"Little sister, why are you afraid? Tell me what's bothering you, and we'll figure something out together."

Ms. Feng then explained to them the dangers of consanguineous marriage that Liu Siyue had mentioned, leaving them dumbfounded and unsure how to react.

"Little sister, are you telling the truth?"

"Mother, eldest sister-in-law, second sister-in-law, would I lie to you about this? Let me give you a few examples, and you'll understand."

Madam Feng then recounted several examples that Liu Siyue had mentioned before. The Feng family mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were so frightened that they broke out in a cold sweat. "Mother, eldest sister-in-law, second sister-in-law, think carefully, have any of these kinds of things happened around you?"

I'm telling you, this kind of thing doesn't happen 100% of the time. What if you're unlucky and it happens to you? That could ruin two children's lives!

The three women—the mother-in-law, the daughter-in-law, and the mother-in-law—remained silent, seemingly lost in thought.

Feng Daqiang's wife spoke first, "Mother, sister-in-law, little sister, I've thought about it, and it seems like there's something like this in our village. It was my cousin who married her aunt's son, and the child she gave birth to was missing a hand. The child was smothered to death by her mother-in-law on the spot."

The second child was born with a large cleft in his mouth and was not very bright.

Her husband's grandmother said she was an unlucky person and sent her back to her parents' home. As a result, her aunt was also not well received in her husband's family.

Later, her family married her off to a widower, and to their surprise, the child she gave birth to had no problems at all.

Little sister, do you think that's the reason?

"Most of them, right?"

Feng Dagang's wife also gave an example, and Feng's mother also gave an example from Fengyuan Village: "Yuzhen, you know so much in April. Luckily, she told you all this, otherwise we would have made a big mistake."

They're all our dear grandchildren; if something really happened to them, we wouldn't even have time to cry.

The three Feng brothers carried their food back to their respective houses. Looking at the candlelight reflected in the windows, they felt a mixture of joy and fear.

The three grown men, also experiencing their new bride's first time getting into the sedan chair, stood outside the house with bowls in their hands, their faces beaming with happiness. Listening to the laughter and chatter coming from inside, they knew they finally had wives and their own little family.

Feng Dazhi knocked on the door, and Liu Ruyun opened it. He chuckled at her and scratched his head sheepishly.

"Fourth Uncle, why are you so late? Your aunt has been waiting anxiously."

Tonight is your and your aunt's wedding night, so we won't disturb you any longer.

Liu Ruyun called her two younger sisters and cousin, and then left the courtyard.

The gates of the two neighboring courtyards also opened, and Ru Xue and Ru Yu came out.

My cousins ​​and I returned to the Feng family's old house together. "Grandma, Grandma, we're back."

You sisters must be tired today. Come and sit down. "Tell Grandma how your chat with your aunts went?"

"Grandma had a good eye; she chose beautiful and virtuous wives for my uncles. They're excellent at farm work and housework."

"Yes, Grandma, we all like all the aunties very much."

Milk, are you ready?

What should I prepare?

"Get ready to hold your grandson! Three uncles are getting married at the same time, and three aunts are getting pregnant at the same time. When the time comes, the three of them will give you grandsons and granddaughters. You'll have to hold two in each arm while you're nursing them. If any of them give you twins, you'll have to call your grandpa to help take care of them too."

"You silly girl, you think too much. You've only just gotten married, and you don't even know where your grandchildren are yet."

"As long as your three aunts can have children, we're not afraid of having as many as we want; that would mean a prosperous family."

The family sat together chatting and laughing until the night deepened, and Ruyue and Ruxing, sitting there, began to doze off.

Mrs. Feng smiled as she looked at Ruyue and Ruxing, "Look how tired my two precious granddaughters are. Hurry up and take them home to sleep."

The crowing of roosters broke the darkness of dawn. Before Feng and the others had even gotten up, the three new brides came over to make breakfast.

They pushed open the gate, but it was still closed. The courtyard was quiet and there was no sound. The three of them stood quietly at the gate, and after a while, the three brothers came over.

"What are you all doing standing here? Why don't you go inside?"

Feng Dazhi's wife, Jin Juhua, said, "Husband, the courtyard gate isn't open yet. My parents have been working so hard these past few days, they probably haven't gotten up yet. We'll wait here."

There was finally some noise in the yard, a rustling sound, and Feng Dazhi peeked through the crack in the door. His mother was tidying up the yard.

"Mom, open the door!"

Then Feng's mother remembered that the courtyard gate was not yet open. As soon as the gate was opened, she saw her three sons and three daughters-in-law standing outside. The three daughters-in-law went up together and called out "Mother".

When Feng's mother saw that her three daughters-in-law had rosy complexions, her smile deepened.

"Why did you bring your wives here so early? Why didn't you sleep in a little longer?"

"Mother, we are the ones who came to serve Father and Mother and make breakfast. It has nothing to do with my husband."
