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

Ye Wenxiu came excitedly, but when she left, she glanced at Xiao Tao, said nothing, and left. The two were not destined to be together.

Before she even got home, she saw her son standing at the door, looking in her direction. She hurried a few steps to the front door, and Shi Tou quickly asked, "Mom, how is it?"

"Son, the girl doesn't agree. She doesn't want to get married at all. April tried to persuade her, but it was no use. Now you should give up and properly consider her options!"

Liu Shitou looked dejected. "Mother, I want to ask her myself. I want to hear her say it to me." With that, he ran out.

When Shi Tou arrived at the end of the village, he saw Madam Feng sitting in the courtyard with Granny Xu sitting next to her. The two were talking about something, their faces full of smiles, while Xiao Tao was tending to a few flowers and plants.

When Xiao Tao saw Brother Shi come in, he ignored her. She knew that she had rejected him and was still angry. He didn't say anything and waited to see what his wife would say.

Shi Tou walked up to Madam Feng and said, "Auntie, I know I shouldn't have said that, but I want to hear her say it herself. I hope she can give me some time so she can get to know me better."

"Alright, I won't get too involved in your young people's affairs. Let's talk things out and don't force anything."

Xiaotao, Shitou wants to talk to you alone. You two should talk calmly and please don't argue.

After Madam Feng and Granny Xu returned to their room, only Xiao Tao and Shi Tou remained in the courtyard. Xiao Tao spoke first, "Brother Shi Tou, thank you for liking me, but I don't want to get married right now."

You are the savior of the master and the young master. My status is not worthy of you, Brother Stone. You can find a better girl than me.

Your whole family are good people; you're sure to marry a wonderful wife. Don't waste your time on me.

Stone was completely confused and looked utterly bewildered. "Xiao Tao, are you running a fever? What nonsense are you talking about? When did I say I liked you? You are very cute, and I've always treated you like a little sister, just like April."

Xiao Tao was also stunned. "Brother Shitou, it was your mother who came to see Madam yesterday and told her. How could it be wrong? Madam even confirmed with Aunt Ye several times that you like me and want to marry me."

"Didn't you say those words to Aunt Ye?"

"Xiao Tao, this is all a misunderstanding. I'm so sorry. I never said I liked you or wanted to marry you. Something must have gone wrong. I need to go back and ask my mother."

Stone ran off again in a flash. Xiao Tao stood there, stunned. A misunderstanding! How could this lead to a misunderstanding? Luckily, she didn't agree. If she had, and he didn't like her, how could she live? She would be laughed at to death. Luckily, she understood.

When Granny Xu saw Shi Tou leave, and Xiao Tao standing there in a daze, she shook her head. "Madam, the two of them probably didn't reach an agreement. I saw Shi Tou run out, and Xiao Tao is standing in the courtyard in a daze."

"Ignore them and let them handle it themselves."

A moment later, Xiao Tao entered the main room with a pained expression. "Madam."

"Xiao Tao, you and Shi Tou should resolve your own issues. This is the first time that boy has liked someone. If you reject him, he will definitely not understand. Since you don't want to marry him, don't give him hope."

But you must be careful with your words; avoid saying anything hurtful.

"Madam, it's not what you think. There's been a misunderstanding. We've mistaken the person for someone else. Brother Stone said he's never liked me and has always treated me like a little sister."

Feng sat bolt upright. "Stone really said the person he likes isn't you?"

"Yes, madam."

Did he say who he likes?

"No, I didn't even have a chance to ask before he ran back, saying he was going to ask his mother."

Madam Feng was not calm. That day, there were only a few of their children. The only ones of marriageable age were Xiao Tao, Si Yue, Ru Yu, and Hong Mei. Xiao Tao was not a suitable candidate, Si Yue was impossible, and Hong Mei had just divorced not long ago and had a child with her. That left only Ru Yu.

Ruyu is now of marriageable age, no wonder Shitou has been unable to find a suitable match, it turns out he has secretly taken a liking to Ruyu. No, no, they cannot be married, we must make things clear.

"Xiao Tao, go and invite Si Yue over quickly."

A little while later, April came with Xiaotao. "Mom, you were looking for me."

"Hmm, did Xiaotao tell you about the stone?"

"I gave a brief explanation."

"Granny Xu, you and Xiao Tao can go down first."

"Mom, what's going on? Why are you being so mysterious?"

"I thought about the dinner party that day carefully. At that time, the only eligible girls in the family were you, Ruyu, Xiaotao, and Hongmei. I think Shitou probably had his eye on Ruyu."

Think about it, Ruyu is 14 this year, and she will be able to get married next year when she comes of age. The reason she chose to bring it up at this time is probably because she wants to get engaged first, and then get married after the New Year.

In April, you and I will go to Shi Tou's house now and make her give up on this idea.

"Mom, aren't you overthinking this? Ruyu is so young, how could Brother Shitou think that way?"

"In April, when a man likes a woman, he doesn't care about her age."

"Mom, if that's what you're saying, I think you're pretty too, maybe Stone Brother has taken a liking to you."

"You brat, how dare you tease your mother! I'll give you a good beating!"

"Mother, Mother, I was wrong, I was wrong, I won't do it again next time. I just followed your line of thinking."

"Mom, do you think Brother Shitou might have taken a liking to Cousin Hongmei?"

"That's impossible. Hongmei just got divorced not long ago and has a child. How could she possibly be interested in a young, unmarried man like him?"

"So what if you're divorced? So what if you have a child? Marrying him is still the better deal for him. Getting married means becoming a father. Cousin Hongmei is such a good person. Maybe Shitou just likes married women!"

"Impossible, impossible! What good man would be willing to raise someone else's child?"

"Nothing is impossible. I think it's great. Shi Tou is a good person. If Cousin Hong Mei can really marry into the family, she will definitely be happy. It's just that I don't know what Uncle Tian and Aunt Ye mean."

"Mother, I'll wait here. I'm sure they'll come back soon. I'm going to check on Cousin Hongmei."

Liu Shitou ignored the villagers' questions all the way home, and as soon as he entered the door, he called out, "Mother."

"You're back. Don't be sad. I know you're upset. Go back inside and rest. Try to think positively. From now on, go to the end of the village less often. If you don't see her for a while, you'll forget about her."

"Mother, come inside with me."

"What's wrong with you? Why are you taking your anger out on others just because they're unhappy?"

"Mom, when did I tell you that I like Xiaotao?"

"Even though you didn't say it, Mother already guessed it."

"You guessed it; didn't you say you saw it all?"

"I saw it, I saw how you behaved in front of that girl, didn't you see anything else?"

"Is there anything else you'd like to see?"

"Mother, you really are my mother. You said you saw it. I thought you saw me giving something to Hongmei."

"What! You gave something to Hongmei, your Aunt Feng's niece?"

"What else!"

The person I like is Hongmei!

"Son, you seem quite ill. Hongmei, she's divorced and has a child. Do you want to be her stepfather?"

"Mother, I know about Hongmei's divorce. I heard about it when I went to the Feng family last time. So what if she got divorced? It wasn't her fault. What's wrong with taking care of the child? Now that she's married into our family, your parents can become grandparents right away. It'll save us so much trouble. I'll also get a great daughter."

The child is still young and doesn't remember anything. We treat her well, just like our own children.

"Given our family's circumstances, if you marry Hongmei, you'll be laughed to death by the villagers."

"What's so funny? Hongmei is April's cousin and Auntie's niece. Who would dare to laugh?"

"This is a big matter; we need to discuss it with your father."
