Xia Ran continued to ask Chen Ping: "What do you think of your family members? Are they bad people or good people?"

"The clan members are fine, and some of them have helped us a lot. But now it's hard to manage everyone's life, and we have the will but not the power."

"Does your mother know that you came to see me?"

This needs to be made clear. Xia Ran is willing to lend a helping hand to others within the scope of his ability, but there is a prerequisite that the person must know how to ask for help from others and be able to stand up on his own. Otherwise, Xia Ran will not help.

Chen Ping didn't know why Xia Ran asked this, but he answered truthfully: "My mother doesn't know, Auntie. Ever since you helped Chen Haijuan from your village get divorced last time, I wanted to come find you, but they all said you left and weren't there. I kept waiting until this evening when I heard from others that you were back, so I came to find you. I was afraid that if I couldn't see you tonight, it would be even harder to see you later, so I came to ask."

Xia Ran brought the subject back: "Is your mother willing to divorce your father?" This must be asked clearly.

Chen Ping blurted out without thinking: "Of course I am willing to leave. My mother said that if it weren't for my brother and me, she would have left this place long ago. She has had enough of this place."

This is not necessarily the case. Xia Ran directly suggested: "Well, go back and talk to your mother first to make sure whether she really wants to divorce. If we don't consider the issue of where to live and what to eat in the future, does she want to divorce? By the way, if your father becomes paralyzed and needs someone to take care of him in the future, what will your mother do? I want to hear the truth. After you tell me the final result, I will help you make suggestions. Also, ask your brother, by the way, is he willing to live with your father or your mother?"

If Chen Ping's mother is also willing to divorce, Xia Ran can give her a helping hand. If Chen Ping's mother herself is unwilling to divorce, Xia Ran will never interfere in this matter. She is also very busy and does not have much time to waste on this. Her time now is money.

"My brother must have told my mom. My brother was beaten by my dad. When he saw my dad, he was like a mouse seeing a cat. He was so scared that he was shaking all over."

Xia Ran still insisted: "Okay, go ask. Once you've figured it out, come find me. Be careful on the road."

"Okay, thank you, auntie."

"No thanks, let's go."

Suddenly, Shitou and Jingwazi called out from outside the window, "Sister-in-law?" and "Auntie?"

"I thought you guys had gone home. Come in quickly. It's so cold at night. You two are still freezing outside."

"No, you were just talking to Chen Pingzi, so we didn't disturb you."

"Come on, you guys can just stay at my house tonight. Shitou, go get a basket of grass to cut into pieces, the kind with soil on it, and we'll go heat up the kang in the inner courtyard. You can sleep in the inner courtyard tonight. You'll be alone at home anyway. Have you locked your door? Jing, you can sleep outside with me."

"Okay, sister-in-law, I've locked it. I've also mixed the fodder for the animals," Shitou agreed happily. He didn't want to go home. He was the only one in the huge house, and it was empty and cold, without any human presence at all.

"That's it."

While the three were busy lighting the kang in the inner courtyard, Chen Ping, his mother and his brother came over in the dark.

Xia Ranying entered the room, and Chen Ping's mother said a little awkwardly: "I'm sorry to bother you so late at night."

Xia Ran went straight to the point: "It's okay, have you thought about it? Have you come up with any results?"

Chen Ping's mother said: "Aunt, I've made up my mind. I'm going to leave. If it weren't for this land, I would have left long ago with my two kids and nowhere to go. I've had enough of others' ridicule, sarcasm, bullying, and bullying, as well as the endless and endless beatings by men. But, we have nowhere to go, aunt. The world is so big, but the three of us have nowhere to go." Thinking of this, Chen Ping's mother burst into tears in despair.

Xia Ran felt particularly sad after hearing this. Indeed, in such a big world, there was not even a place for Chen Ping and her two children to stay. She thought about it quickly in her mind and immediately came up with a plan.

After Chen Ping's mother had cried enough, Xia Ran spoke again: "If you want to divorce, then divorce. Do you have a marriage certificate?"

"No, we don't have a marriage certificate. When we first got married, I was not old enough. Later, I was old enough, but the baby's father was a different person, so we didn't specially apply for a new one. We just muddled through all these years."

Xia Ran said: "This is much easier. You don't even have to go through the divorce procedure. You have two choices now. The first is that you and Chen Ping's father can split into two families and live separately. The advantage of this is that you have a ready-made house to live in, but the disadvantage is that you will see them everywhere. He can stop raising these two children now, but when he gets old and can't move, the country's laws will still require these two children to take care of him in his old age..."

Chen Ping's mother asked directly: "Aunt, what is the second choice?"

"The second option is, Chen Ping, you go to the clan and ask to leave the clan, and cut off all ties with the clan. I will find you an extinct household in my village, and you can be adopted into the clan. The advantage is that you won't have to serve Chen Xiaoshan in the future. The disadvantage is that you will have to burn paper money, provide food, cigarettes and alcohol for your adopted ancestors every year and festival. At the same time, you will have to bear all kinds of pressure from public opinion, and you will have to rebuild the house after coming here."

Xia Ran likes to remove the firewood from under the cauldron. As for how to choose specifically, it depends on the courage of Chen Ping and his two daughters.

The mother and daughter were frightened by Xia Ran's remarks, but they quickly came to their senses and decided to choose the second option. So they looked at each other and said directly: "His aunt, we choose the second option."

Xia Ran smiled and asked, "Are you sure? Are you sure you won't regret it in the future?"

The mother and daughter said firmly: "No regrets, we don't regret it."

Even the child, who had been hiding behind his mother and had no reaction since the arrival, now responded with "no regrets".

The child's clothes were very old and patched but quite clean, showing that this woman was also good at managing life.

"I'm glad you don't regret it." Xia Ran smiled and took out some candy and gave it to the child. The child was quite good-looking. "Eat candy."

"Stone?"

"Yes, sister-in-law, what's wrong?"

"Shi Tou, go to your sixth uncle's house now and ask him to come over."

"it is good."

Soon, Uncle Six came over, and Xia Ran greeted him. "Uncle Six, I'm sorry to have you run this trip so late. The main reason is that I can't enter your house, otherwise I would have brought people over."

Uncle Six said with a smile: "It's okay, we are the ones who built the country. If you have any problems, just tell me directly. It's okay."

The country that built the country is very powerful now. Having such a person in the village has only advantages and no disadvantages. At least now no one dares to bully the people from their village when they go out.
