The things that happened at Aunt Xingzi's home were somewhat diluted by the herbs, but they still cast a shadow in Guangdan and Fang Cuihua's hearts.

However, their capabilities are not enough to solve this problem for the time being.

As the temperature continued to drop, there were basically three charcoal stoves burning at the same time in the Lin family's house during the day. Fortunately, Linjia Village was originally located in the mountains, otherwise the firewood and charcoal alone would cost a lot of money in this winter.

Guangdan didn't want to get up in the morning. The dog hair was like a stove, warm in the quilt. Even though his hair had a little smell, Guangdan still preferred the smelly dog ​​hair to freezing to death.

But the Lin family currently only has two meals a day, and if you don’t get up in the morning you won’t have anything to eat. This drives Guangdan’er to get up with difficulty every day.

He came out of the house early the next morning. The cold wind in the yard made him feel like he was running naked again.

Just as I was about to brush my teeth, I saw Aunt Xingzi walking out of the main room in a hurry.

Before I could even say hello, I saw the person disappear into the snow trail.

After quickly washing up, he rushed to the main room, leaned towards the stove and was about to ask a few questions when he saw the eldest and second daughters from Aunt Xingzi's family sitting obediently by the side, stretching their little hands and feet to warm themselves by the fire.

"Big girl, little girl, why are you here so early?" Guangdan put his paw close to the charcoal fire and asked with a grin.

"Well, mom is going back to her uncle's house today, so we're coming to your house to play." The six-year-old girl spoke very clearly, much better than the five-year-old Goumao.

"Well, just play at my house. I'll get you something delicious later." Guangdan winked and then noticed the aggrieved look of the little girl next to him.

The three-year-old boy seemed to feel that his brother was taken away by another little girl, and there was visible grievance on his little face.

"Oh, our Xiaoya is only one year younger than Erniu, come, let's compare heights." As he said that, he pulled the two little girls to stand back to back.

"I'm tall!" Erniu tilted her little neck, her big watery eyes filled with a happy smile.

"I'm taller!" The little girl stood on tiptoe in defiance, and the dissatisfaction in her eyes was obvious.

"Well, brother, take a good look. Our little girl is one year younger, so she's a little shorter. If we eat more every day, we'll grow taller!" Guangdan stroked the heads of the two little girls, and he looked very happy.

At this moment, my mother and second aunt came over with bowls, chopsticks and pickles.

The black porridge was being cooked on the charcoal stove in the main room. Guangdan'er's stomach had been rumbling for a long time, but now that dinner was about to start, he no longer cared about anything else and stared at the bowl.

When people are hungry, they think all black things are good things and they won’t be picky!

After all, there was nothing to choose from, and what little food there was at home was basically locked up by Ms. Fang Cuihua.

"Come on, Big Girl and Little Girl, let's have breakfast together." Fang Cuihua saw that the two little girls were a little embarrassed and gave Erya a look.

Erya put down the glutinous rice ball in her hand and started to greet them immediately.

With sister Erya around, Da Niu and Er Niu were obviously more relaxed.

The Lin family doesn't have the rule of not talking while eating or sleeping. Before they even started eating, grandma couldn't help but ask curiously, "Xingzi went back so early, I guess she won't be back today."

"Well, the two of them will squeeze in with Erya tonight." After Fang Cuihua said that, she lowered her head and began to gulp down the black soup.

Guangdan looked at the black goo in the bowl day after day and ate it obediently. Don't be fooled by its ugly appearance, but you will find it has a slight sweetness after getting used to it.

Grandma Lin didn't say much, but she felt a little bit reluctant. The fate of the two girls in front of her was the same as their mother, which was very unclear.

After Guangdan'er finished eating, he wiped his mouth, raised a harmless smile and asked, "Is it possible to establish a female household?"

Fang Cuihua paused while rubbing her black hands, then stopped and explained in detail: "In Dali, divorced women can indeed set up a female household, but it is not easy to set up a female household. There must be a house and land. These are not the main points. The main point is that the annual tax is collected according to the male tax, and not everyone can afford to set up a female household."

Guangdan glanced at the girl who was listening at the side, then asked curiously, "How does mom know so much?"

"Your grandfather had a cousin, my aunt, who divorced when I was very young and settled down in Dafang Village. Fortunately, she had a skill in making leather boots and was protected by her family, so she lived a good life."

What Fang Cuihua didn't say was that in the end, her cousin still adopted a boy from the clan. Women, there is no way to escape.

Guangdan'er's eyes lit up, so it all comes down to the fact that he doesn't have any skills, right?

All I can say is that Guangdan'er is still a little naive. The preference for boys over girls in this era is fundamentally different from that in the future.

When he was still Lin Xiaoxi, he faced the deep-rooted old idea of ​​favoring boys over girls. There were many different voices in society, and even gender equality had become a national policy.

At present, favoring sons over daughters is a more realistic and inhumane form of killing. It leads to the extinction of the whole family, divorce, sisters having to lower their heads forever and being unable to raise them, and the bodies of baby girls being abandoned in the wilderness.

"She is lucky. If she hadn't been protected by her brothers from her mother's side, she would have been eaten by others. So how can a family without a male heir be possible?"

Grandma Lin's words once again put Guangdaner in a dead end, and the topic returned to the starting point.

At this time, the big girl and the second girl lowered their heads very low, as if they were about to lower to the ground.
