The daily struggles of divorced women in ancient times

Chen Susu's face was gloomy for a while and then seemed like she was thinking of some happy event. Seeing this, Xia Mianwan didn't want to talk any more and turned around to go in.

Chen Susu steeled her heart and shouted, "Sister Xia, please help me this time!"

Xia Mianwan seemed to have heard a big joke, and turned around and asked, "Come on? Me?"

"Sister Xia, as long as you ask, Zhou Chengze will definitely consider me carefully. I'm good-looking, I'm also quite smart, and my family situation is simple. I can definitely be a good wife for him." Chen Susu said seriously.

Xia Mianwan: "..."

"First, I'm not Zhou Chengze's mother, and second, I'm not Zhou Chengze's family member. What should I help you with? Are you crazy? And an official's wife... Let alone whether it's that easy to be an official's wife, are you so sure that Zhou Chengze will be an official in the future? This is not the way you gamble." Xia Mianwan suspected that she was blind at the time, otherwise how could she not see that this person was so confused.

Seeing that Xia Mianwan refused to give in, Chen Susu actually knelt down in front of Xia Mianwan and refused to get up.

"If you don't agree, I won't get up." Chen Susu said stubbornly.

Chen Ge'er and Yu Jie'er had been listening for a while. Chen Ge couldn't hold back his anger and rushed in, "Get up, don't force my mother!"

However, Chen Susu just couldn't get up no matter how Brother Chen pushed her.

Sister Yu shook her head and pulled Brother Chen aside, "Brother Chen, trust your mother, she will take care of it."

Xia Mianwan looked at Chen Ge'er and Yu Jie'er with some relief. Fortunately, this pair of cheap children were not raised in vain.

The Xia family, Zhou family, and Chen family are so close, and Madam Zhou has heard the whole story from Zhou Chengze. She is so sick to her stomach.

Madam Zhou also meant this. If the two were in love, it would be fine. But her son didn't mean that. Forcing him would be bad. And the Chen family obviously did this with malicious intentions.

If Xia Mianwan agreed to help, then the goal might be achieved; if Xia Mianwan did not agree to help, the relationship between the Zhou family and the Xia family would probably be ruined.

"Good calculation!" Madam Zhou was not stupid. After figuring out all the connections, she became even angrier.

Zhou Chengze thought for a moment and said, "Mother, let's step forward. There's no point in asking Sister Xia to take on this responsibility for us."

Madam Zhou nodded and said, "You have a point, but you should not leave. It would also save the young lady's face. If the Chen family says something indecent about you and Mian Wan again, I'm afraid Mian Wan will take it to heart if you are there, and it will be awkward when you meet next time."

"Okay, then I'll take Chen Ge'er and Yu Jie'er to Xiaowu's place." Zhou Chengze did not refuse. It was indeed not as convenient for him to come forward as for his mother to do so.

"Sister Xia, please help me!"

"Mianwan, please help my daughter!"

Xia Mianwan was even more speechless when she saw Chen Dasao coming out together. These two people were determined to blackmail her morally, right?

"What's the point of you begging Mian Wan? Don't be so shameless. You have received so many favors from Mian Wan, but instead of being grateful, you are acting like an ungrateful wolves. Do you have any shame?" Madam Zhou said sarcastically as she walked up to Chen Susu and Chen Dasao.

Xia Mianwan was getting impatient. She was about to ask someone to throw the two people into the mountains. It was just in time that Madam Zhou came.

"Sister Zhou, it's just right that you're here. I'm really annoyed."

Madam Zhou smiled and comforted Xia Mianwan, then turned around and said to Mrs. Chen, "My son doesn't have this idea, so you should just give up on it."

Chen Susu looked up pitifully and said, "Aunt Zhou, who do you think is more suitable than me in this mountain? It can't be...it can't be Sister Mianwan!"

Xia Mianwan: "..."

Xia Mianwan was disgusted again.

Madam Zhou nodded and said, "Don't say my son is still young. Sooner or later we will have to leave the valley. If one day none of us can leave the valley, I will not choose you."

Chen Susu looked at Madam Zhou hatefully but said nothing.

Xia Mianwan looked at Chen Susu's fierce eyes and her expression began to become serious.

Chen Susu’s look…isn’t right.

Even when Madam Zhou said so, Mrs. Chen was the first to wake up. She pulled her daughter up and said, "You just look down on our background. Sooner or later, my daughter will make you look up to her and make you feel inferior to her."

"I'm not looking down on your background. If we talk about background, there's no difference between my family and yours. The only difference is people's character." After saying this, Madam Zhou no longer looked at the two of them, and pulled Xia Mianwan straight into the house.

"Sister Zhou, your last sentence is so well said!" Xia Mianwan was really impressed.

Madam Zhou smiled and tapped Xia Mianwan's forehead and said, "What else can I say? Haven't you been nagging me about character and independent personality in the past two years? Although I don't quite understand what you say, I know that these things make me a better person."

Xia Mianwan smiled and nodded, but when she thought of the two annoying people outside, she couldn't help but sigh.

"Don't sigh at such a young age." Madam Zhou said as she pulled Xia Mianwan to sit down.

"I know your intentions and I won't misunderstand you, Mian Wan. Although I don't particularly understand you, you have helped me a lot along the way. If we really have to compare, of course my son is the best in my eyes, but in fact my son is not as good as you. You have a kind of vitality in your bones, which my son and I can never catch up with."

"What nonsense are you talking about, Sister Zhou, don't listen to those confused words, I am Chengze's elder." Upon hearing this, Xia Mianwan hurriedly explained. Although sister-brother love is not a big problem, but in this era she still has two children to take care of. What's more, she has children, money but no husband. With such a comfortable life, who would want to find a man to serve her!

Madam Zhou saw that her words had caused Xia Mianwan to misunderstand her, so she hurriedly explained, "Mianwan, that's not what I meant. Don't think too much. I just wanted to say that you are really good. Don't be influenced by the Chen family."

Xia Mianwan laughed and said, "Don't worry, Sister Zhou."

After a while, when Madam Zhou saw that the two had left, she said to Xia Mianwan, "It seems that these two are determined to bear grudges. We must be more careful in the future."

"There are only thieves who can steal for a thousand days, but there is no one who can guard against thieves for a thousand days. It is not a good idea to keep on guarding like this." Xia Mianwan said.

"Mianwan, what do you want to do?"

Xia Mianwan suddenly said seriously: "Sister Zhou, what I said just now about throwing them into the mountains was not a harsh word."

Summer hibernation is serious.

Chen Susu's eyes were too creepy. If they really wanted to set a fire or poison in the mountain, how could they prevent it? Of course, she would not kill anyone, but she could not expose the valley. If she let them go down the mountain, not to mention the unknown situation down there, it would be difficult to live there. What if they brought people to the valley?

The best place is deep in the mountains. The two of them can't get out by themselves, so they can just wait until they want to go down the mountain and have someone else bring them out.

Let Xiaowu find a good location in advance, fence off the land, and sprinkle all kinds of animal repellents and insect repellent powders. Even if they can't survive with food and firewood, then it can only be said that this is their fate.

Even if he escaped the massacre, he couldn't escape his own stupid brain.
