The daily struggles of divorced women in ancient times

Xia Mianwan found out what she wanted to know, and also casually revealed some secrets of the divorce at that time.

Unless the Zheng family is stupid, they should not come back to provoke her again. Then everyone should resolve the matter in a dignified manner. Anyway, Xia Mianwan doesn't want to return to the Zheng family or marry again. But if the Zheng family is blind, then she is not a polite person.

It was the King of Wu who came to the throne instead of the King of Qi, but the Zheng family was the favorite general of the King of Qi. Putting aside whether the King of Qi and the King of Wu were truly brothers, judging from their backgrounds, the Zheng family's current prosperity was like a boom.

Zheng Xiaoyun faked his death to change his identity. In order to merge several forces, he abandoned his wife who had always been with him and his lovely child Yuxue, and married the eldest daughter of the Haichen Gang.

There are so many points to criticize. If she were a member of the Zheng family, she would have to keep a low profile in front of Xia Mianwan.

Although Mrs. Zheng is selfish, she is a smart person. Only her ex-mother-in-law, who has been the mistress of the general's mansion for many years, is... not very smart.

It's stupid, let's wait and see. Xia Mianwan has no plans to go to the capital anyway.

Xia Mianwan returned to the side courtyard of Sun's house and told everyone what he had learned from Zhao Erhu. Sun Bo was very happy to hear it. This is good, this is good, this way he can go home.

"Uncle Sun, please wait a moment. Are the deeds and other things still there?" Xia Mianwan asked.

Sun Bo nodded and said excitedly: "I thought it was just for refuge, so I hid these things in the tunnel in advance."

"Okay, then after the notice is issued in the next two days, Uncle Sun, you can take the deed to the government to register." Xia Mianwan said with a smile.

"That's great! It's really great!" Uncle Sun was still excited.

Having heard the news, Xia Mianwan and his companions decided not to stay any longer. However, a notice would be issued in Yanzhou City in the next two days, so everyone decided to let Xiaoqi, Xiaoba and Huzi stay at Sun Bo's house and find out the contents of the notice before returning to the valley.

Xia Mianwan and the other two returned to the valley exhausted.

As soon as she returned to the valley, before she reached home, Xia Mianwan saw from afar two little people dressed in red and green, standing at the gate of the yard, looking out.

Xia Mianwan sighed silently, her feelings for her adopted child growing stronger as they spent more time together.

Chen Ge'er and Yu Jie'er saw Xia Mianwan from a distance, and ran over with their legs thumping and calling for their mother.

Xia Mianwan reached out and caught the two children, holding one in each hand, "Do you miss your mother?"

"I want to!" Chen Ge'er and Yu Jie'er shouted at the same time.

Xia Mianwan smiled and took her two children home. After running around outside for a few days, she was finally tired. Xia Mianwan decided to eat something and have a good rest for a night before thinking about other things.

……

The next day, Xia Mianwan was cleaning the house with Chen Ge'er and Yu Jie'er, when Zhou Chengze, Xiao Wu and Zhou Niang came over together.

Xia Mianwan knew that they were here to discuss future matters, so she let Yu Jie'er and Chen Ge'er go and play by themselves.

"Sister Xia, I have already told my mother about the preliminary matters." Zhou Chengze said.

Xiaowu also looked at Xia Mianwan, waiting for Xia Mianwan to speak.

Xia Mianwan curled the corners of her lips and asked, "What do you think?"

Xiao Wu said: "I don't have any ideas. If you and Sister Xia want to go down the mountain, I will go down with you. If you want to stay in the valley, I can also stay with you in the valley."

Life in the valley is also very good, and Xiaowu feels quite free here.

Zhou Chengze said: "We want to hear what you think, Sister Xia."

"In fact, there are troubles in going down the mountain, and there are troubles in the mountain. We just have to make a choice together. We can't live in the mountain forever. If we want to leave, now is the best time. At this time, Yanzhou City is in ruins. A real man will definitely be able to make a career if he wants to go there. After the rebellion, the officials of the court were killed or exiled, and a large number of official positions were vacant. I think within half a year, the emperor will definitely open an imperial examination. Chengze, haven't you studied hard for many years for this moment?"

Xia Mianwan paused, and continued, "There are risks. Although the rebellion in Yanzhou and the rebellion in the capital have been quelled, we can no longer learn more with our current information channels. Therefore, no one knows whether the throne of His Majesty is stable or not. Although the internal troubles have been settled, whether the external troubles will take advantage of the fire to rob, no one knows. If you end up like this now, you will definitely be tied to the current court and there will be no possibility of lying dormant. Chengze, you really need to think about it carefully. This decision cannot be made for you by others."

When Madam Zhou heard what Xia Mianwan said, the smile on her face faded a bit, "How about we go down the mountain later?"

Zhou Chengze said at this time: "If we go down the mountain late, we will miss the best opportunity."

Xia Mianwan nodded without saying anything.

It is impossible for people to have everything, so every choice is extremely important.

"Sister Xia, will you go down the mountain?" Zhou Chengze suddenly raised his head and asked softly.

Xia Mianwan replied without hesitation: "Of course we have to go down the mountain. Staying in the valley is a helpless move. Life is still the same. Although there is leisure and ease, as time goes by, there will be more problems. Besides, Yujie and Chenge are growing up day by day. Since I have raised them, I naturally cannot keep them in the mountains forever. Isn't it for everyone to study, practice martial arts, and learn skills so that they can go down the mountain one day?"

Since we are going down the mountain, we have to choose the time when the benefits will be the greatest.

Xia Mianwan had never thought about living a superior, wealthy and powerful life after traveling through time, but she also hadn't thought about hiding in the mountains for the rest of her life.

Even if her ex-husband came looking for her, Xia Mianwan would not be afraid at all.

Zhou Chengze was silent for a while, then stood up and clenched his fists and said, "Let's go down the mountain!"

There was still some hesitation on Madam Zhou's face, but Xia Mianwan would not persuade her on such a matter.

"Well, let's go down the mountain!" Xiao Wu said.

"Okay, so do you want to settle in Yanzhou City or in the village?" Xia Mianwan asked.

"Of course it's the city." said Madam Zhou.

Xiaowu was still thinking, Xia Mianwan said to Xiaowu: "Xiaowu, you have a lot of people, you can go back and ask everyone's opinions, whether to settle in the city or in the village. So many people in the city may not have a good livelihood for a while, even if they live in the city, what to eat and drink? It's too much of a burden to put it all on you, you are getting older, and you will have your own life, you can't always support everyone. Living in the village, at least you will be given land, and you can finally have your own life in Yanzhou, right?"

Xiao Wu thought about it and nodded: "Well, but I can support myself, I will go to the city."

In this way, the three families determined the future rules and agreed to go down the mountain and enter the city ten days later.
