C8 Cousin

In this life, she no longer believed in men. In this life, she had long ago forgotten about kinship. All she wanted to do was to establish a woman as her family.

When the pigweed was almost finished, Xia Xiaochan snuck into the cove as usual.

However, this time around, the rich fragrance and alluring liquid did not appear. Instead, there was only some moisture on the rock.

How long would it take to release a drop?

In order to not arouse suspicion, Xia Xiaochan, as usual, only read for an hour before she ran out of the cave.

When they were almost out of the cave, Xia Xiaochan looked around to make sure no one was around before leaving in a flash.

Not long after she left the cave, she circled around a cove. Lee Congwen, who was in the woods, looked at Xia Xiaochan's back and narrowed his eyes.

Xia Xiaochan naturally didn't know that there was someone watching her from behind. She subconsciously looked back, but didn't find anything. Thus, she hurriedly carried the basket and left for home.

When Xia Xiaochan returned home, there was an uproar from Xia Family. All the women and children who were free in the village clamored and pointed at Xia Family's residence.

Xia Xiaochan's father, Xia Shikang, had two elder brothers, two elder sisters, two elder sisters and two elder sisters who were both thirteen and ten years old respectively.

Due to the feud between Xia Xiaochan's mother, Lady Faang, and Wu Tie's family, Xia Xiaochan's grandparents had already decided to split up the family a few years ago. After dividing the house and the land into the three Xia Family brothers, Xia Xiaochan's grandparents and their two aunts were currently living in separate houses in Xia Shikang's three brothers' house.

Currently, Grandpa Xia was living with his two daughters at First Uncle Xia's house.

The courtyard that the villagers were instructing was not the other house, but Second Uncle Xia's and Xia Shiguang's house.

Xia Shiguang Sheng had a son and a daughter, his son was called Xia Weihong, his daughter was called Xia Xiaoli, and Cousin Xia Xiaoli was seventeen this year, she had been married for more than a month.

His cousin, Xia Weihong, was just engaged recently. He heard that Second Uncle's Wife was carefully selecting the relatives and that the villagers were looking forward to the show. He was afraid that something must have gone wrong with his second uncle's family, but what could go wrong with his family?

Xia Xiaochan's distant memories were a little blurry, unless they were related to her.

When Xia Xiaoli returned home to put down the pig grass, her sister-in-law, Lady Chen, clicked her tongue and gossiped with Lady Zhang.

Lady Chen's voice was filled with schadenfreude as she said, "I went in to listen, but I heard that even after the month of marriage, men still wouldn't be able to get close to her."

Lady Zhang's eyes flickered as she asked with a long face, "Is there going to be a problem with Xia Xiaoli?" Otherwise, why would she not marry even at the age of seventeen? It's been so long since I got married, why isn't a man willing to touch her? "

Lady Chen raised her eyebrows and said indifferently, "Who knows? [I just cried when I got home. My face is so swollen …] He didn't know how many times he had been slapped. They all say that the man's family is wrong. If I say that this woman doesn't do anything wrong, how can a man not want her? A man can hit her? "

Lady Zhang was the big mouth of the nearby village. According to Lady Chen and Lady Zhang's rumors, Xia Xiaoli's illness would spread throughout the village very soon.

At this moment, Xia Xiaochan remembered this cousin of hers.

If she remembered correctly, her cousin Xiaoli would commit suicide in a nearby pond three days later, and this brother-in-law of hers would marry a woman. However, she had married a widow, and her husband was rather mean.

Xia Xiaochan thought about it for a while, then secretly ran to Second Uncle Xia's house from the woodshed.

"On the first day of marriage, when I was talking to my husband, his mother called his sister over for help. He went out for a night and never came back again, and before dawn the next day, his sister woke me up with cold water, told me to wash and cook, fed me chickens and feed me pigs, and worked in the fields. That's it, because I didn't work well, except for giving me a bowl of porridge in the morning, and I didn't eat a single grain of rice for lunch and dinner …"

Xia Xiaoli's sobbing continued, "His mother would either feel pain in her heart or feel dizzy every night. Every night, she would call him over. Just the night before our daughter came back, his mother …" He even said that her feet were cold and told her to go to her bed to warm her feet! He is a great filial son, so I will listen to his mother. He was right all along, everyone said it was my fault, that I could not tolerate his filial piety! "

Xia Xiaochan nearly vomited out her disgust when she heard this. It turned out that her cousin had died such a tragic death.

This man and his mother were really the best of the best.

Obviously, the man that his cousin Xia Xiaoli met was just a filial fool. His mother, after hearing that he was a widow, was probably a perverted woman who treated her son as her husband.

It was no wonder that her cousin was found drowned in a nearby pond after only three days of living in that house.

At this moment, he heard Second Uncle's Wife say, "My daughter, this matter... Mother … Mother will tell them, don't worry, Mother will definitely tell them. "

Xia Xiaoli raised her head, despair in her eyes as she said, "Mother, I don't want to go back. I don't want to go back to that house anymore, I only need to eat once a day. If I don't take the money you gave me and trade it for food from the villagers nearby, I …" I was starving. Today, I found a chance to sneak out, wuu!

Xia Xiaoli cried miserably, but Lady Xiong also felt bad. Originally, she only had one daughter, so this marriage was carefully chosen. However, she had never imagined that this so-called honest and loyal family with only one son would have such a situation.

However, what could he do if he could do it himself?

Don't worry, they don't dare to treat you like this. Since you just married, it means that they want to give you some face, so you should learn to be smart first. When the time comes, as long as you are pregnant, I'm afraid that your family doesn't have your status anymore. "Lady Xiong thought for a while and then said.

Xia Xiaoli sobbed and shook her head. "Mother, if I go back, I will definitely starve to death. Wu wu, I'm not going back. I don't want to starve to death."

"Silly child, you're always like this when you're a woman. Look at Xiaohong, after she married such an ugly man, won't she still be living a normal life? "Your situation is much better than Xiaohong's. Listen to your mother and endure for a few years. When that old woman dies, you will be in charge of the family. This is how women suffer.

Xia Xiaochan stiffened, a pitiful smile on her face.

In her previous life, she had always been patient and patient, but reality told her that she was just lying to herself.

In this world, if he could not be good to himself, then there would be no one who could be good to him.
