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

"Mother, what's there to discuss? My wife is here to live with me. She's such a good person, she'll definitely be filial to you both."

"Tch, it's not even close to happening yet, and you already know she'd be willing to marry you!"

Go find your father; this isn't something you can just let go of.

The mother and daughter went to the chili field to find Liu Youtian. "Husband, there's new information about your son."

"What's the new situation? Xiaotao agreed to marry him?"

"No, the person he likes isn't Xiaotao, it's Yuzhen's niece—Hongmei. Didn't she just get divorced not long ago, and she has a little girl with her?"

"Oh, it's not Xiao Tao!" Liu Youtian was delighted, as he had never agreed to marry Xiao Tao in the first place.

"Hongmei has been here for a while. She seems like a nice girl. As long as she can live a peaceful life with you, you can marry her if you want. Just don't regret it later."

"Honey, what's wrong with you? Hongmei is divorced and has a daughter. Do you want Shitou to be her stepfather?"

"At least Hongmei has a clean background. The child is still young. We will raise her as our own. She will be our child. Even a stepfather can become a biological father."

I heard that the child has severed ties with her biological father, so we have nothing to fear.

"You two, father and son, are really going to drive me crazy."

"What's there to be angry about? Hongmei is Feng's own niece. If we can really marry her, she'll take better care of our family in the future. Don't you understand that?"

That girl, we'll raise her well. When she grows up and gets married, we'll be relatives. What's there to worry about?

You've been wanting a grandson all this time, haven't you? Well, here's one right here.

Ye Wenxiu was still upset. Her son was so good, it was such a loss for him to marry a divorced woman.

"Mother, please say yes, I really like Hongmei."

What do you like about her?

"I don't know, I just like it."

"Alas! A son is no longer under his mother's control once he grows up!"

"Alright, I'll go again for you and apologize to Xiaotao as well. Luckily, Xiaotao didn't agree. What would have happened if she had?"

"Mom, can you please ask clearly before doing anything in the future? Luckily we were at Aunt's house, otherwise it would have been so embarrassing. How could we have made such a mistake?"

"You have the nerve to say that to me? Why don't you just say you like Hongmei? All this stammering and beating around the bush, what kind of behavior is that!"

"You two stop arguing and get on with your work. Anything else is getting me in the way."

"Stone, Dad supports you!"

Ye Wenxiu rolled her eyes at him, followed her son home, washed up, and headed to the end of the village. "Children are all a burden! My legs are worn out from running all day."

"Mother, I know you've worked hard. I will take good care of you from now on. Tonight I will wash your feet and massage your legs."

Ye Wenxiu tapped Shi Tou's forehead with her finger, "He'll say any nice thing for his wife, just wait at home."

Liu Siyue went to find Hongmei, "Cousin, what are you doing? Hiding in the room all by yourself, don't you get bored?"

"It's okay. I've thought about what you asked me to do last time. I have a child, so learning embroidery would be better. That way, I can still take care of the child. I can't take care of the child if I do anything else."

"Cousin, think it over carefully. Don't worry about the child. There are so many people in the family; they can't even take care of one child."

"In April, I've made up my mind. I'll learn embroidery, and I like it too."

"Alright then, in a while I'll take you to the county town, where there are people who can teach you. With a skill to rely on, you'll always have food to eat."

Hongmei knelt down again, holding her child. "April, thank you so much. We can never repay your kindness to us, mother and daughter, in this life. We'll repay you in the next."

"Cousin, get up. It's nothing, you don't need to do this. As long as you can live well in the future, that's the greatest way to repay me."

Cousin, have you ever thought about remarrying?

"I just got divorced, and I don't want to get married for the next few years. I want to learn a trade and earn money to support my daughter and me. If there's a suitable candidate, wouldn't you consider him?"

"I won't consider it. If I got married now, what would people think of me?"

"Cousin, as long as you're doing well, why care about what others think? They can say whatever they want, how can you control them?"

"I can't stand the way people look at me. No matter what, I don't want to remarry in the next few years."

"Alright, it's your own business, you decide for yourself. If you need any help, feel free to come to me."

Liu Siyue and Hongmei were talking in the room when they heard Ye Wenxiu's voice, "Yuzhen! I've come to bother you again."

She glanced at Xiao Tao and said, "Little Tao, I'm so sorry. I apologize. I'll cook you some chicken another day."

Xiao Tao smiled and said, "Auntie, there's no need for that. It was just a misunderstanding, and it's all cleared up now."

"Yuzhen, Xiaotao is such a good girl."

"Of course."

Why are you here again? Didn't I say Xiaotao didn't want to? Shitou, didn't you persuade her?

"Oh dear, it's all that child's fault. He didn't explain things clearly, which caused me to make a mistake. Let me tell you, the person Shi Tou likes isn't Xiao Tao, but your niece, Hong Mei."

"Do you know what's going on with Hongmei? Hongmei can't take a blow like this."

"Of course I know, this time it's definitely not wrong, I can guarantee it, this time it was Stone who said it himself."

I asked her what she liked about red plum blossoms, and she said she didn't know, she just liked them.

Yuzhen, don't you think this is what people call love at first sight?

"Whether it was love at first sight, I don't know, but Hongmei probably doesn't have those feelings. That child is heartbroken right now!"

"Why don't you ask her? She's her aunt, she'll listen to you. It's not easy for her to raise a child alone. If she marries Shi Tou, we'll be a family, I can help her take care of the child, and I can become a grandmother sooner."

"You wish!"

"Xiao Tao, go and invite your master and Miss Biao over here."

"Yes, madam."

"Master, Miss, Madam requests your presence."

"Cousin, let's go!"

Liu Siyue helped her hold the child, with Hongmei following beside her, looking very careful.

"Aunt Ye, I heard you've come to our house several times these past few days. Have your legs gotten thinner from all the running around?"

"You silly girl, you're teasing your auntie now."

"What brings you here, Auntie?"

Ye Wenxiu gave an awkward laugh, glanced at Xiao Tao, then at Hongmei, and made an excuse to pee, then slipped away temporarily. There were some things she couldn't say while she was an outsider in the room.

"Hongmei, do you know why your Aunt Ye has been coming to our house these past few days?"

"My niece doesn't know."

"Come here and sit next to your aunt. Your aunt has something to tell you."

Hongmei obediently sat down next to Madam Feng. Madam Feng took her hand and said, "Hongmei, don't think about the past anymore. Think more about the future."

My aunt knows how difficult it must be for a woman to live alone with a child after a divorce. She needs to find a man to rely on, and my aunt doesn't want to see you suffer alone.

Although your parents and brother are willing to accept you and let you live at home, once your brother gets married and has children, your parents might not be able to take care of you then.

"Aunt, I know, so I plan to learn embroidery with April. In the future, I will have a skill so that I can support my mother and me and not be a burden on the family."

"April? When did you guys agree to this? How come I didn't know?"

"Mom, I told you this when I was having a heart-to-heart talk with my cousin."

"Learning a trade is a good thing, but you can't delay your lifelong marriage. Do you know your Aunt Ye's son, Shitou?"

"I've met him a few times."

What do you think of him/her?

"I don't know. We've only exchanged a few words. The last time he bumped into me, we said a couple of words. I found out in April. That was the only time we've spoken."

"Shi Tou said he likes you, what do you think? Don't be shy here with your aunt, just say whatever you want."

"Aunt, I don't want to talk about marriage for now. I just want to learn a trade. As for the future, we'll talk about it after I've mastered the trade."

"Aunt, please reply for me. We're not a good match. Please thank Aunt Ye for me and don't hold her back."
