She lay down beside her daughter. “Daughter, you have a father now. Although it’s a fake marrige, when you come out, the children won’t laugh at you for being a fatherless child. Whether it’s me or him, we’re all your family. You have a complete family now.”

“Cuckle, cuckle, cuckle”

Ling’er smiled. Qiao Mai turned to the side and pinched her little face.

“Are you hungry? From tomorrow onwards, Mother will steam egg custard for you, right?”

Qiao Mai got up and made milk for her, fed her, and played with her. She had been lazy for the past two days, so she did not manage her space much.

There will always be a day when people are tired and do not want to move. In this case, one should just rest.

Before she went to bed, she even poured herself a glass of red wine.

A beautiful day had begun. Yuan Jiaqi now had a legitimate reason to help Qiao Mai.

After breakfast, the children fed the quails and added fodder and water to the horses.

Yuan Jiaqi was Qiao Mai’s assistant. He helped her prepare all the items and helped her push the cart onto the official road before coming back. The sound of reading rang out in the Qiao family’s courtyard again.

Qiao Mai’s stall was once again in an uproar.

“Lady Qiao, you’re really a great troublemaker. You took a husband without a sound?”

“What? Can’t I? I’m not a young lady. Can’t I get married again?.”

“Your husband is really sharp-eyed. He found such a capable wife like you.” “He’s quite dependable too. It’s just that you didn’t see it.”

“Look, we haven’t even said anything yet, and you’re already protecting her.” “Do you want to buy anything? If you don’t buy it, let others buy it.”

“I’ll buy. Give me six oranges, a bowl of red dates, and twenty quail eggs.”

Qiao Mai’s business was booming, but in the school, Teacher Lin was so angry that he could not vent his anger.

If it was two days ago, he could still go to Yuan Jiaqi and ask him not to teach Madam Qiao’s children. However, what excuse could he say now?

The two of them were husband and wife. It was only natural for them to teach their own children. Who could control them?

This time, Teacher Lin had become the joke of the town.

Tian Yaozu was even angrier. He went home and told Tian Laoshi and his wife about this.

“What is it? She actually found a live-in husband?”

“Isn’t she registered to be living at our house?”

“The official came and left. They have the letter of separation, so we can’t stop the official, right?”

“I’m so angry. She’s a b*tch who has been trampled under our feet. How can she marry again?”

Seeing their grandson go crazy, Tian Laoshi and his wife felt that there was something wrong with him.

“Yaozu, let’s not care about her. Study hard. When you’re successful in the future, you can still trample her under your feet.”

“Yes, I’ll participate in the imperial examination next year. I’ll definitely get an official rank.’

“That’s right. When you’re in town, who will dare to disobey you? What’s the use of having a kind person helping her? Even a kind person is afraid of officials.’

When Tian Laoshi and his wife spoke, their faces were as malevolent as ghosts.

“She is Sanzhuang’s woman no matter when he’s dead or alive. How can she find a husband?”

“It’s too late to say anything. I knew that she wasn’t a good person. It hasn’t been long, but she already found another man.”

“If I had known, I would have killed her at home.

When the people at the side heard this, they all lowered their heads. The wives of the first and second sons looked at each other, and their hearts turned slightly cold.

They could imagine that if Madam Qiao was not at home, they wouldn’t know how thev would be bullied when their mother-in-law had to vent her anger.

Since Madam Qiao left, the two of them had done more work than before, and they had been scolded countless times.

Their mother-in-law did not dare to hit them, but she kept pointing fingers at them every day. Their husbands also worked hard and did not care much.

They felt that they could not live this life anymore. Fortunately, their own parents treated them well. Otherwise, they would really have no way to live.

Thinking back to Qiao Mai’s days in the Tian family, they all felt that they were too inhumane in the past. They had helped their mother-in-law bully her. It was finally their turn to taste the bitterness of their third sister-in-law.

Secretly, the two of them often revealed to outsiders, intentionally or unintentionally, that they should never marry into the Tian family or interact with the Tian family.

They were too inhumane. These two sisters-in-laws were looking forward to moving as soon as possible.

No one wanted to take care of the elders. They would wait until they were unable to move.

In other words, no one wanted to live with these two old elders.

Of course, this thought was just in their hearts.

Since the news of Qiao Mai’s marriage could reach the Tian family, it could also reach the Qiao family.

Those who came to watch the show were not afraid of trouble. Some people even specially sent things over to watch the show.

Qiao Shicheng was lying on the bed. Twenty hits had almost taken his life. The others were not feeling well either.

The ox-cart in the village made several trips to town every day. The driver of the ox-cart that day did not like Qiao Shicheng. When he heard about Qiao Mai’s matter, he immediately told the villagers about it.

“Look at what Qiao Shicheng’s family has done. She’s a good daughter. It’s not like she was divorced after she cheated on her husband and was kicked out by her in-laws. The family doesn’t even care about this matter, which makes her heart cold.”

“He was actually thick-skinned enough to settle scores with his daughter. When he saw that his daughter had been bought, dressed well, and received the monthly silver, he wanted to get money from her. He had already broken off ties with his daughter for ten taels of silver.”

“Shameless thing. He went to look for his daughter after breaking ties. He couldn’t bear seeing his daughter living better. He deserves to be beaten. Now, she has a literate man with a son entering her home. The days are getting better and better, That old thing must be angry. I’m telling you, others don’t understand, but I know about it.”

“Tell me, tell me.”

“That man is from the Apricot Blossom Village. He loved reading since he was young. Teacher Lin’s school in Tianshui Town even let him study for free for a few years. He didn’t have money to buy pens and paper, so he sold firewood.”

“He secretly saved up money to buy a pen and wrote on the ground with water. He had practiced good calligraphy. Just copying books for the library would earn him dozens of taels of silver a year.”

“Wow, such a man is rare. If his parents supported him to study, he would have been successful long ago, right?”

“Exactly, but his parents are worse than Qiao Shicheng. They use their son as a money tree and only pick girls from rich families to marry. After the girls go home, they take their dowry and torture them.”

“Does his family know that he can copy books to earn money?”

“Of course, they don’t know. If they knew, would they have let him go? I overheard from the shopkeeper of the library.”

“Then why did they let him go this time?”

“I heard that he insisted on marrying into Madam Qiao’s family. Madam Qiao is Shopkeeper Lu’s person, and Shopkeeper Lu’s heart ached for Madam Qiao, so she found the mayor to come forward and move that man’s household registration to Madam Qiao’s family.”

“My heavens, wouldn’t man’s parents be in turmoil?”

“The official personally went to the door to change the household registration, so would they dare to cause trouble? After the officer left, they went to the town to cause trouble for the man.’

“What happened after that?”

“No matter how his parents tormented him, he was determined to marry into the family. His parents saw that what was done was done, so they could only ask for 100 taels of silver to end this kinship and even write a letter to end it.” “Haha, these two poor lovebirds are fated.”

“I went to Tianshui Town this morning to do some work. When I heard this matter, I was very happy.”

“Qiao Shicheng still doesn’t know, right?”

“If he knew, he would be furious. His daughter can earn money, and his son-in-law can earn money. If he was like an actual father, he would not let his daughter’s heart go cold. With his daughter’s kind character, she could even help beggars.”

“That’s right. He doesn’t look like an elder. He deserves to be like this.”

The coachman complained to the villagers and felt a little better. Some villagers ran to the Qiao family’s house to have a look.

Madam Oiao Lu’s heart was filled with regret, and Oiao Shicheng’s heart was filled with bitterness.

No one knew why they were suffering. They brought this upon themselves. Suffering was a small matter. It was good that they did not die..
