Travel through ancient times and become a great hero

After returning home, Charlotte put her mother in her room and asked Juhua to cook some millet porridge.

Tiandong and Kongqing looked at each other in confusion.

In fact, Charlotte used silver needles to seal the old lady's sleeping points. This method was used to break off the engagement.

Charlotte used a silver needle to wake her mother up.

"My daughter, where am I?" The old lady opened her eyes and saw her third daughter again, but the environment had changed.

"Mom, you are in my home. I rescued you from that home. You will never go hungry again."

"They didn't make things difficult for you, did they?" The old lady first considered whether her daughter was bullied by them?

"The relationship is broken off. Tomorrow I will go to the government office with them to register. Once everything is done, I will arrange a comfortable place for you to recuperate. Don't worry, they will never be able to find you in this lifetime."

As the mother and daughter were talking, Juhua brought the porridge over.

"Mom, you have nothing in your stomach. Drink some millet porridge to nourish your stomach."

The old lady drank the porridge with tears in her eyes. It was the warmest porridge she had ever tasted in her life.

The next day, Charlotte's two sisters and brother-in-law arrived, exhausted.

The village chief sent someone to inform them. My mother had passed away, so I had to come and see her for the last time.

"Third sister, where is mother?" The eldest sister's eyes were very red and swollen, probably because she had been crying all the way.

"Third sister, mother is here with you, they can't come, right?" The second sister was scared by her father's beating.

"Don't get excited yet. Sit down and listen to me. Tiandong, take the brothers-in-law to the lobby for tea. My sisters and I have something to say."

Charlotte told her two sisters about her visit to her mother's house.

"I'll go see mom." The eldest sister said as she stood up and walked inside.

The three sisters came into the room and saw that their mother's face was noticeably rosier.

"Mom." The eldest sister and the second sister knelt beside the bed at the same time.

"Mom, I thought I would never see you again. Uh, um, um." The eldest sister couldn't stop crying.

"Mom, I'm glad you're okay. We three sisters will take good care of you in the future." The second sister was more rational than the eldest.

"Seeing that you are all fine, I am relieved. Your sister saved me. You two should never forget this for the rest of your lives."

"Mom, what are you talking about? We are happiest when we are together. Don't think too much. I will go to the government office with my sisters to sever the marriage contract. You should have a good rest at home."

Charlotte planned to take her two sisters with her to sever the ties with the family so as to prevent future troubles.

The eldest sister, Xia Yun, is 17 years old this year. She was sold to a hunter named Zhang Qi in the mountains as his wife and gave birth to a son and a daughter. Because she hunted in the mountains all year round, she was once bitten by a wolf.

So now my legs are still a little lame. Both my parents are dead and one of my elder sisters is married.

The second sister, Xia Shu, is 15 years old this year. She was sold to farmer Zhu Yizhang as a wife. She has no children yet.

Tiandong stayed at home with his two brothers-in-law.

Kong Qing drove the carriage to take the three sisters to the yamen.

The chief of Taohua Village was already waiting at the gate of the yamen.

"Uncle village chief, let's go in together." Xia Luo ignored Old Man Xia and Xia Jingtai.

"Master, let's go and register the severance of the relationship." Seeing the master's master, Charlotte nodded slightly.

The master was a little surprised to see Charlotte, and then pretended not to know him.

"Who are the people who broke off the engagement? Bring out the agreement." The lawyer was impartial.

"The handling fee for breaking off the engagement is five taels of silver. Who of you can pay it?" The lawyer looked at Xia Jichang.

"I don't have money, whoever arranges the marriage will pay." Xia Jingtai saw his three sisters staring at him eagerly. His neck shrank.

"I can pay, but there is a condition. If you agree, I will pay the full amount. If you don't agree, you can only pay half."

Charlotte also knew that it would be harder than climbing to the sky to get them to pay the money. In order to break off the engagement smoothly, she still kept a trick.

"As long as I don't have to pay any money, what are the conditions?" Xia Jingtai's nonchalant look made people feel annoying.

"My sisters and I will sever ties with you."

"A married woman is like spilled water. You are all cut off. Who cares about you?" Xia Jingtai agreed without hesitation.

When the lawyer saw that everyone agreed, he took out the registration book, and then put their fingerprints on it, and the marriage was completed.

The chief of Taohua Village didn't say a word, and the marriage was over.

"Third girl, even though you two are no longer related, I, an old man, admire you very much. If you have anything to ask in the future, just tell me. I will never refuse anything that I can do."

"Uncle, please come to Willow Village often in the future. Charlotte will entertain you warmly and perhaps bring you good luck!" Charlotte had a good impression of the village chief.

"They say that the third girl has a sharp mind in business. I really want to learn from you in the future."

"You're being polite if you want to learn from me. But there are ways to make money. I'm waiting for my uncle to come and talk with me."

"Then it's a deal!" The village chief smiled and felt that it was worth coming here today.

The three sisters returned home and told everyone in the family to keep the secret.

The old lady has been buried. Avoid those two coming to cause trouble.

After lunch, the sisters said they wanted to go back, but Charlotte didn't let them go, saying she had something to discuss with them.

"You have to put on a good show. It usually takes three days for a funeral. If you go back now, the news will surely reach those two men. To avoid any trouble, you stay here for three days. I have something to discuss with you."

Seeing how hard her elder and second sisters were living, Charlotte wanted to help them. Seeing that her two brothers-in-law were simple and unpretentious, she wanted to find a way out for them.

"Brother-in-law, you are a farmer. How many acres of land do you have?"

"There are only five acres of good land and three acres of wasteland in our family." My second sister's wife is honest and capable.

"Does my brother-in-law have any land?"

"There are ten acres of good land and no wasteland." My eldest brother-in-law rented out all the land and liked hunting.

"How about this? I will give each of you 60 mu of good farmland. You promise to cultivate it carefully. I will provide you with seeds. After the autumn harvest, you can sell the grain to me. How about that?"

"Third sister, what's wrong with you? Seeds and land cost money, we can't take advantage of you?" The eldest brother-in-law heard the words coming out of the door.

"Yes, third sister, it's not easy for you to raise two children alone. Your sister and I don't have children, but we have enough food and clothing." The second brother-in-law said sincerely.

"It's winter now, it's too early to say that. What do you do in winter?"

"I usually go to the mountains to hunt some prey, and have a snack for the children and adults at home." My eldest brother-in-law likes to go hunting in the mountains.

"In winter, I usually weave some baskets and sell them to peddlers. It also helps to supplement the family income."

"Big sister, is your place big? Is there room to raise pigs?"

Charlotte suddenly thought of the wild boars in her space. They reproduced too fast. If her elder sister knew how to raise pigs and supply them to the restaurant every day, it would be a considerable income.

"My home is far from the city, but the place is spacious." The eldest sister spoke softly. Charlotte thought of the manor given by the emperor. She might as well let her two sisters go to the manor, and her mother could also recuperate there.

Send more people over there. I don't know how big the farm is. I have to go and take a look tomorrow.

As they chatted, it was already night. Charlotte prepared to cook a few more dishes so that her sisters could also taste her cooking skills.

Why didn’t Xia Yunyuan come today?

Four maids helped Charlotte for an entire night, cooking pickled fish, soy sauce pork leg, sweet and sour spareribs, braised chicken, twice-cooked pork, stir-fried meat with yam and black fungus, boiled pork slices, dry-pot cabbage, and a fish head soup. Eight dishes and one soup.

Charlotte filled a bowl of fish head soup and handed it to her second sister.

"Second sister, go and bring it to mother, so she can drink more."

"Sister, brother-in-law, please don't be polite. Try my cooking. We are all family members today, and it's rare for us to be so happy."
