Qiao Xi returned home slowly and met Qiao's mother at the gate who was about to go out to look for someone.

Mother Qiao didn't even take off her apron. When she saw Qiao Xi, she asked, "Where have you been in the blink of an eye? Without even saying a word!"

Seeing that Qiao's mother was worried about him, Qiao Xi hurriedly explained: "I have nothing to do at home, so I just took a walk."

Mother Qiao was very dissatisfied: "You really can't sit still. If you want to leave, you have to wait until your feet are healed before leaving!"

Josie stuck out her tongue playfully.

"Okay, hurry up and eat." Mother Qiao held Qiao Xi's arm and walked in: "Mom will make delicious scrambled eggs with loofah for you."

Qiao Xi's family always eats in the yard in the summer, and the dining table is placed under the hawthorn tree in the yard. At this moment, the men of Qiao's family are serving food and rice.

Seeing Qiao Xi coming, Qiao Bei quickly brought the only small bench with a backrest to the front and let Qiao Xi sit on it.

This small bench was Qiao Bei's favorite seat when he was a child. Qiao Xi felt that his foot injury was not a big problem: "I don't need it, you can sit on it."

Qiao Bei hesitated for a moment. Mother Qiao glanced over and Qiao Bei sat down on another small stool.

Qiao Xi glanced at Mother Qiao helplessly, and to save trouble, she had no choice but to sit down on the small bench with a backrest.

After sitting down, I found that with the backrest, my injured foot was indeed more comfortable.

This meal was extremely sumptuous. There were not only three dishes, but also a meat and a soup. The whole family had a delicious meal.

After eating, everyone sat and lazed. Qiao's father talked about the arrangements for the afternoon. Qiao Dong, Qiao Bei, and Qiao Nan continued to go to the square to get wheat with Qiao's father, while Qiao's mother rested at home and tidied up the house.

After taking a nap at noon, Qiao's father took his sons and left, and Qiao's mother also got up and worked.

When I was getting married to Josie, I borrowed a lot of neighbor's pots and pans, and I had to clean them one by one and return them.

Qiao's mother was scrubbing in the kitchen. Qiao Xi walked over to help, but Qiao's mother refused to let him go: "You are a sick person, so go and rest!"

Qiao Xi didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Mom, I hurt my foot, but I didn't hurt my hand. Wiping the dishes won't affect me!"

Mother Qiao still refused: "Just order the bowls and I'll finish them in two times. I don't need you to scrub them. Just stay aside and don't make any mess for me."

Listening to the familiar words, Qiao Xi thought of the hardships she finally experienced after marrying into the Yang family in her previous life.

At that time, she understood Mother Qiao's intentions of feeling sorry for her under her rough and arrogant surface.

Women in rural areas basically have to work hard after getting married. Not only do they have to make money, but they also have to cook and wash dishes. It is really hard work.

So before getting married, Mother Qiao tried her best to make her live happily and enjoy herself.

Qiao Xi's nose sore, but she insisted on picking up the rag and wiped the bowls one by one.

Mother Qiao was about to say a few words, when she met Qiao Xi's reddish eyes, her words turned around, and her voice became gentle: "Mom is really lucky to have a sensible girl like you."

Qiao Xi sniffed: "What a blessing it is to wipe the bowl."

She is lucky to have Mother Qiao.

Mother Qiao sighed and raised her voice: "You look like you're just cleaning dishes, but actually you feel sorry for your mother and me! Baby, don't think I can't tell!"

Josie burst out laughing.

Mother Qiao also laughed.

The two of them washed the dishes and wiped the stove carefully. They were almost done. Mother Qiao cut the watermelon and sat side by side with Qiao Xi under the apple tree, enjoying the cool air while eating.

Mother Qiao gnawed the watermelon carefully, and did not stop until she got to the green skin. She gnawed two pieces and asked Qiao Xi: "I will send watermelon to your father and the others later, so you won't go. Do you want to eat it tonight?"

What, mom will do it for you when she comes back."

Qiao Xi sipped the watermelon water in her mouth and shook her head.

In the past, my sister-in-law Sun Hailan did all the cooking and washing dishes at home. Now that Sun Hailan was driven back to her parents' home, her mother Qiao did all the work.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but asked tentatively: "Mom, how do you plan to deal with the sister-in-law's matter?"

Mother Qiao: "Didn't I already tell you how to deal with it?"

Qiao Xi: "Yes, it's just..."

Mother Qiao looked at her troubled daughter, stretched out her hand and rubbed it: "Why, you can't bear it? Mom tells you, to condone the bad guys is to be cruel to yourself!"

"I..." Qiao Xi sighed: "I think the eldest brother is in a difficult situation..."

Mother Qiao paused for a moment: "Then let him think of a solution. He still wants to live with Sun Hailan, so he can separate from us. Anyway, he is a grown man in his twenties and almost thirty, and he can be the master of the family.

"

Seeing that Qiao Xi still hadn't made up her mind, Mother Qiao put down the watermelon and said seriously: "Daughter, you haven't realized how serious Sun Hailan's mistake was. Mom is here to tell you.

As women, once we marry the wrong person, our whole life will be ruined. Sun Hailan is a person who has suffered. She knows better than anyone that it is not easy for us women, but she still does this to you and throws you into a pit of fire.

Damn it, it’s so dark!

In the past, my mother could turn a blind eye to her petty tricks, but this time, I will never leave her by my side!"

Qiao Xi felt Mother Qiao's determination again.

She also became determined instantly.

Even if her eldest brother is in trouble, she cannot forgive the person who harmed her just because she is soft-hearted.

The bloody lessons from the past life are right in front of you!

Besides, in her previous life, after she got married and Qiao Nan took a wife, the big family was divided.

There is nothing wrong with dividing it up early now.

She nodded: "Mom, I understand what to do."

Don't say that Sun Hailan didn't apologize sincerely. Even if she sincerely admitted her mistake out of regret, she would not forgive her.

When Mother Qiao heard her words, she narrowed her eyes instantly.

She stared at Qiao Xi with burning eyes: "Did your elder brother say something to you?"

Qiao Xi groaned and shook his head quickly: "No."

Mother Qiao: "That coward Sun Hailan is looking for you."

Qiao Xi was anxious: "No! No!"

Mother Qiao said firmly: "It's impossible. If nothing else happened, why would you be so hesitant all of a sudden? Tell me quickly, what's going on? If you don't tell me, I'll ask the boss later!"

"Don't..."

Qiao Xi was really impressed by Mother Qiao. She just mentioned it, but she was guessed right away!

If Qiao's mother goes to find Qiao Dong, the consequences will be even more disastrous.

Qiao Xi had no choice but to tell Mother Qiao what she overheard Sun Hailan and Qiao Dong talking.

In order to avoid Mrs. Qiao's anger, she did not mention Sun Hailan's attitude of still refusing to admit her mistake.

Upon hearing this, Mother Qiao snorted coldly: "I had already guessed it would be like this!"

Josie was in disbelief: "Mom, how did you guess that?"

Mother Qiao snorted: "I have eaten more salt than your baby has eaten. Then how can Sun Hailan be willing to divorce your eldest brother? He must find a way to come back! It's a pity that I am determined this time. What will she do?

I won’t let her come back. She has done something wrong and still wants to continue to enjoy happiness with me without separating the family. She wants to be beautiful!"

She said and looked at Qiao Xi again: "Daughter, please remember, you are not allowed to turn your elbows outward. You must support your mother's decision. Do you understand?"

The unbearable feeling towards her elder brother in Qiao Xi's heart also dissipated under the explanation of Mother Qiao's smile: "I understand, I know how to do it."
