After dinner, Charlotte asked Zhuzi's mother to rest in the back hall, and she went to the kitchen alone.

"Manager Zhao, let a master help me and let him learn too." Xia Luo could only teach them once and couldn't do it every time. She was on the scene, so she asked the masters to pay attention to the details.

"Master Zheng, come and help us. We will serve a dish of braised meat to our guests tonight." Manager Zhao asked the restaurant's chef to learn how to make braised meat.

Charlotte never leaves her backpack because she needs to get the marinade from it.

More than 30 kilograms of braised meat were prepared, and the marinade ingredients were left over for ten days.

Charlotte was too tired to even speak.

Go to the back hall and call Zhuzi's mother and leave.

Shopkeeper Zhao called her over and handed her the silver. "Miss Xia, do you have any other dishes? If so, our boss will come to inspect the store tomorrow and we can try to cooperate."

"I'll go to the infirmary tomorrow. You can find me there."

I will go to the clinic tomorrow to verify the efficacy of the pills. Actually, there is no need to verify it. Just looking at Liang Bo's condition, you will know that the effect is good.

But you still have to go to Pushantang Pharmacy, because the pills can only be sold there.

On the way back, it was Zhuzi's mother who pulled the cart. Seeing that Xia Luo was so tired that he spoke less, she thought that it was really not easy to earn some money.

When she first entered the village, the people under the big locust tree looked at her strangely.

She didn't care. After she walked away, the group of people were still pointing and talking.

When I arrived at the door, a group of people gathered there and talked a lot.

Charlotte suddenly perked up. Could something have happened to the child?

She took two steps at a time, pushed through the crowd and ran into the yard. She saw two children crying in Aunt Zhang's arms.

"Zimo, Xuanxuan, who bullied you?" Charlotte's first reaction was that the people in the old house were making things difficult for the children.

"Mom, they said my dad died in the battle. Wuuuu." Xuanxuan burst into tears when she saw Xia Luo.

"I don't believe it, it must be a misunderstanding. Daddy's Kung Fu is so powerful, it's impossible." Zimo's eyes were filled with tears.

Charlotte looked up at Aunt Zhang.

Xia Luo didn't feel anything about Han Sijin's death. She was just a wife in name only. She had never even met him, let alone had any feelings for him. So she had no feelings for him.

"Where was the notice sent?" Charlotte thought that if it was true, there must be a notice from the yamen runner.

"I heard it was sent to the old house."

"Let's go to the old house. Mother Zhuzi, wait for us to come back and then you can go home." When things are chaotic, someone has to look after the house, otherwise anything lost will be a loss.

When their family arrived at the old house, there were many people gathered in and outside the yard, including the villagers who came with Charlotte. It was estimated that everyone in the village had gathered here.

"The third son's wife is here." The village chief greeted Charlotte.

"I want to see the notice." Charlotte just wanted to see whether the notice was real or fake.

"You are not qualified to watch. It's all your fault, you jinx. Since you married into this family, nothing good has happened to the old Han family." Mrs. Han started to make trouble again.

"I am Han Sijin's legitimate wife, how can I not be qualified? Besides, we have already separated."

"I am the mother of the third brother, and what belongs to the third brother is mine."

Charlotte felt that there was something else behind the words. Without noticing the grief on Mrs. Han’s face, why was she so interested in the notice?

"I just want to see if the notice is real. No one is trying to snatch your son from you. Besides, if your son died in battle, how come you, as a mother, don't shed a single tear? Did your third son die just for the little money he earned as a pension?"

From what Mrs. Han said, Charlotte could guess that the notice must have mentioned the relief money.

"You, you are talking nonsense. My son died, of course I am sad. But even if there is money, it should be given to me as a mother, not to my daughter-in-law."

When Mrs. Han heard that Xia Luo came for money, she panicked. After all, they had already separated, and she understood this principle.

But since the third child was gone, the three of them had nothing to do with them anymore. She couldn't see the notice no matter what.

"Whether the third brother is here or not, I have the right to see the notice, unless the relationship is severed, then it has nothing to do with you at all."

"Then break off the engagement." When Mrs. Han heard that it had nothing to do with them anymore, that was great; the money could finally be saved.

Be smart for a lifetime and be foolish for a moment.

The marriage was broken off, and the money would not belong to her. Country people did not understand the law. But Charlotte did.

"Zimo, go ask the village head to come over." Xia Luo wanted the village chief and the village head to be present to break up the relationship, to prevent this family from playing rogue in the future.

The head of the village was originally an upright person. He couldn't stand the fact that Han Pozi's family was making a fuss all day long and doing nothing. He also felt sorry for Xia Luo, a child that her husband had never seen. For the sake of two children, she worked hard to make money to support the family.

Unfortunately, the third child passed away again, and it was too much of a burden for her alone. It was better to break up, so that she could have some peace and quiet.

The head of the village discussed with the village chief about writing a severance agreement without saying a word.

After the agreement is written, both parties sign it. Each family will have a copy, and tomorrow they will go to the government office with the village chief to register it.

After the breakup, Charlotte felt relieved. Otherwise, she would always be on guard against their schemes. If they dared to make trouble again, she would definitely not show mercy.

She was not in a hurry even though she was not allowed to see the notice. She would wait until tomorrow when she went to the town and saw Liang Bo, and then ask Liang Bo to find out how much the pension would be. She would try to get it then. There was no point in saying more now.

After returning home, Xia Luo asked Zhuzi's mother and Aunt Zhang to go home and rest, distributed the silver to them, and told them not to come over tonight. The braised meat could not be sold, and other projects should be studied.

After all the hassle, it was dinner time again and the children were in low spirits.

Charlotte went to the kitchen to prepare something delicious for the children.

I saw that the fish fillet had been marinated for a day and I forgot to eat it. What a waste of such good fish.

But the pickled Chinese cabbage was good. I tore off a piece and tasted it. It tasted the same as the pickled cabbage in my previous life. It was great. I would pickle pickled cabbage in the future and make pickled fish, pickled cabbage stewed with vermicelli, and pickled cabbage stewed with meat. Charlotte remembered a series of delicacies related to pickled cabbage.

Make some sweet and sticky yam for the children, which is sweet and suitable for Xuanxuan's taste.

Make fried pork tenderloin, Zimo loves to eat meat.

Make some pork rib soup to supplement calcium for the kids.

Finally, I made some cold wild vegetables to help reduce internal heat.

There is still half of the wild boar meat that has not been eaten. If it doesn’t work, I’ll just put it all in the space. When I build the house, I won’t have to buy meat.

"Mom, this is sweet and fragrant." Xuanxuan is just a child. When she sees something delicious, her depressed mood is immediately lifted. She talks while eating.

Zimo is different. After all, he is two years older than Xuanxuan and thinks about more things.

"Zimo, do you want to go to school?" Charlotte changed the subject. Zimo is seven years old and it is time for him to go to school.

"Mom, going to school requires a lot of money, Zimo doesn't want you to work so hard."

Zimo is very sensible and is worried that Xia Luo will work too hard to earn money. The family needs to build a house and send him to school. Mother is too tired.

"As long as you want to go to school, mother will send you there. You don't have to worry about money. Just focus on your studies."

"When you grow up, I don't expect you to become the top scholar. As long as you are sensible, humble, and don't do anything wrong, it will be enough for you to gain a foothold in society."

"Mom, I want to go to school so that you and my sister can live a better life." Zimo was full of confidence.

"Okay, Mom will go to town tomorrow and ask if they are still accepting students."
