My domineering ex-husband is living off his wife in ancient times.

Chapter 55 3 Guan followed 5 Guan

Si Shaoheng: ...

He was speechless because Cheng Ruoan was right.

It seems that Si Shilang married Lin Shi despite all the pressure, because he was blinded by love.

Indeed, what he did for the Lin family was something that no man in this dynasty could do for his wife.

But that's on the premise that Lin himself is innocent.

Si Shilang's values ​​didn't align with Lin Shi's physical appearance.

Clearly, Si Dalang is not.

"Tsk tsk, according to the details in the original owner's memories, your older brother seems to have suffered a lot of grievances from your mother, but he never showed it."

I thought he was blindly filial.

They believe that even if parents stab their children with a knife, the children should suffer the consequences.

But look at him, all your mother did was not speak up for Xia Shi, and he jumped up and started settling all sorts of old and new scores.

Cheng Ruoan pulled out a handful of caramel cream melon seeds from somewhere in her spatial storage and started cracking them open as she spoke.

"Mommy, what are you eating? It smells so good!"

Niannian, that little glutton, was restless in Si Shaoheng's arms, always wanting to snuggle up to Cheng Ruoan whenever she smelled him.

Si Shaoheng pressed her down. "So, what do you plan to do with those from the Xia family?"

"Mommy, Niannian wants to eat too!"

"I was thinking of leaving them near the wolf den in the mountains to fend for themselves, but I'd also like to hear your opinion." Cheng Ruoan grabbed a small handful of melon seeds and gave them to Si Xin, then looked at Si Xin and gestured with her chin toward Si Nian.

Si Xin nodded and began peeling the shell very seriously.

Si Nian:?

The little one started moving even more, so Si Shaoheng pressed her down to be still again. "What if we leave them in the mountains and they don't 'die' but instead catch up with us alive? We can't let my brother-in-law silence them all."

Si Xin peeled a melon seed and held it up to hand it to her younger sister.

Si Nian paused for a moment, then stopped making a fuss and obediently waited to eat.

Cheng Ruoan: "Xia Yaozu is definitely an extraordinary child prodigy; it's evident in every aspect. Kill him..."

She paused for a moment, then changed the subject: "At the very least, I can't let him stay in our team."

Perhaps it was because he had killed bandits that he became bolder, but Cheng Ruoan did not want to be able to casually say the word "killer".

We cannot lose our reverence for life and the law just because we live in an ancient environment.

Regardless of the overall environment or whether the laws within that environment are sound or not.

You must have a scale and a ruler in your heart.

It's about weighing your own conscience as a person, and measuring the limits of your own actions.

Si Shaoheng glanced at the top of her head, his eyes deep, but he didn't reveal what he had just been thinking.

He simply put Si Nian down and told Cheng Ruoan, "Just stay here with the children and eat some melon seeds. Don't come over here."

"it is good."

Cheng Ruoan knew he was going to deal with "family matters," so she naturally listened to his advice.

The mother and her two children stood in a row, hiding in the shadows under the wall, banging their heads on the ground.

It kept sucking and slurping.

Oh, what they're sucking on is the AD calcium milk in a bamboo tube that Cheng Ruoan took out of her space.

Si Xin glanced at his mother with a complicated expression, but ultimately said nothing.

Si Shaoheng walked over and pulled the overly excited Si Dalang away from the mule cart, then lowered the curtain of the carriage.

"Third brother, what are you doing?!" Si Dalang was pulled and stumbled, glaring angrily at Si Shaoheng.

Before Si Shaoheng could speak, he suddenly rushed over, yelling, "Mother, say something! Why are you doing this to our eldest son's family? Why are you doing this to Da Hu's mother!"

Just because you dislike the Xia family and dislike me, does that mean you have to go this far?!

Si Dalang was incredibly strong, and Si Shaoheng couldn't hold him back, so he could only kick him directly in the back of the knee.

"Big brother, that's enough!"

Si Dalang knelt down on one knee with a thud, facing the mule cart, but his eyes rolled as he looked at Si Shaoheng in disbelief.

Si Shaoheng's expression was so serious that it was almost cold.

"With witnesses and physical evidence right in front of you, if you still refuse to believe that there isn't a single good person in the Xia family, then take your wife and mother-in-law and go find your brother-in-law's family."

Don't be so unforgiving and put all the blame on your mother.

Even if she's biased, even if you never received the love she deserved from you growing up, you shouldn't be pressuring her like this today, just for the sake of her raising you!

Si Shaoheng didn't mention the Xia family's "theft," only saying that "there isn't a single good person in the Xia family," which was also leaving Cheng Ruoan a way out.

If the Xia family can really come out of the deep mountains and forests alive and find them, then they will have no choice but to bring up the matter of Da Hua and confront them.

Even if nothing was stolen.

They weren't exactly good people either!

They're nothing but demons and their accomplices.

“Witnesses, physical evidence…” Si Dalang murmured these two words, looking at Si Shaoheng with hatred: “Dahua has always been afraid of her grandmother, what she says…”

"She was afraid of her sister-in-law, and also afraid of her maternal grandparents. Why would she dare to lie and frame her sister-in-law, and her own maternal grandparents' family?"

Si Shaoheng's patience was wearing thin. "Fine, even if Da Hua is lying, and the eldest sister and brother-in-law of the Cheng family are lying, and even my wife is lying, then where is the medicine?"

What about the goods my wife purchased?

What about the donkey cart?

Brother, you must be a good husband who loves his wife. I told you, you should separate from the family and become a husband yourself.

But don't make us all look like fools.

What value do the Xia family have that warrants my wife using 1,100 taels of goods to falsely accuse them?

Si Dalang's face turned red with anger, but he remained silent.

Si Shaoheng's words were all meant to kill.

Si Erlang was the most selfish of the brothers. In the past, he would have just sat on the sidelines and watched the fight, enjoying the spectacle.

But now they've finally spoken up.

"Brother, Third Brother is right. Who would use more than a thousand taels to falsely accuse your wife's family? Those few worthless lives combined are not even worth one-tenth of your wife's batch of goods."

How could Mother persuade her younger brother and sister-in-law to throw away more than a thousand taels of silver to wrongly accuse them?

Your antics not only make you look stupid, but they also make us all look stupid.

Si Silang chimed in, "Brother, I'm not trying to be mean, but if you insist that Mother wronged your sister-in-law's family, then find the goods."

That was something that my third brother and sister-in-law, I, and my brother-in-law Cheng risked our lives to get back in the mountain village.

Third Sister-in-law was thinking of exchanging the stolen goods for merchandise so that our whole family could live a good life openly and honestly in the north.

"Now that the things are gone, you're still making a fuss."

Da Hu and Da Niu arrived at some point. Da Niu remained silent, while Da Hu looked displeased: "Dad, you don't know what kind of people my uncle's family is, but we do!"

He's always liked to sneakily steal things from our house.

Moreover, Mother usually supports her own family through breastfeeding, but Father, you don't mention it at all.

Mother couldn't speak because she didn't want us anymore and wanted to run away with Uncle Cheng's family, but Uncle Cheng choked her, which is why she couldn't speak.

Third Aunt and Grandma didn't say they'd send her and Grandma directly to the authorities; that's already giving our family face. Right now, you shouldn't be thinking about causing trouble, but rather apologizing to Grandma and Third Uncle, and asking them not to throw you, me, my eldest sister, my second brother, and Daya out of the Si family because of your mother's family.”

Cheng Ruoan was stunned. She nudged Si Xin with her elbow and started gossiping with him:

"Tsk tsk, don't let Big Tiger's usual foolishness fool you, he's actually the most clear-headed person in the whole family!"
