After The Divorce, I Became the Favorite of the Powerful Ministers

Two days later, when Shi Qingluo wanted to drink fish soup, he walked to a river connecting the two villages to catch fish.

On the way, I also heard a few women gossip.

"Xiaoxi Village's Xiao Xiucai is really miserable. He finally got admitted to Xiucai, but he fell down the mountain and fell into a coma. I heard that the family has no money to get medicine, and I don't know if I can save it."

"The Xiao family doesn't care?"

"Have you not heard about the Xiao family?"

"I came back from the town before, what's the matter with the Xiao family?"

"Xiao Xiucai's father went to serve in the military before, but who knew he became a general. After returning some time ago, he came back with a little lady."

"I don't know what happened. Xiao Xiucai's mother pushed the person down, and the little woman had a miscarriage."

"Second Xiao Xiao wanted to demote his wife as a concubine in a fit of anger. I don't know how to talk about it in the end, but it became a two-man relationship."

"Xiao Xiucai's brothers and sisters followed their mother, and then came out from the Xiao family to live alone."

"Xiao Xiu is a conscientious person. I heard that General Xiao originally wanted to bring him back to the capital for training, but he refused. He chose to separate his family and live with his mother and siblings."

"It also angered General Xiao, and wrote a divorce letter with Xiao Xiucai's brothers and sisters. They have returned to the capital a few days ago, so the Xiao family can't control it at all."

"In the past, Xiao's second son went to the army, and Xiao Xiucai's mother had a bad life in the Xiao family. She was often scolded by her mother-in-law and bullied by her sister-in-law.

"It's really a sin, that second brother Xiao is really cruel."

"The people of the Xiao family are cruel. Since Xiao Xiucai's mother's family disappeared, they have been treated more and more harshly towards their mothers."

"If it wasn't for Xiao Xiucai to gain fame by himself, he wouldn't be able to decide for his mother this time."

"What's the use of being a scholar and having a general father? It's not like he's going to die."

"Before, he was famous in the town as a person who knew how to read. What a pity, hey!"

After Shi Qingluo listened to the gossip, he walked towards the river.

Who knew that as soon as he walked nearby, he saw a child drowning in the river.

So he ran over without hesitation, jumped off the river and rescued the person.

Taking first aid measures, the child opened his eyes after choking on a few mouthfuls of water.

"Am I not dead?" he asked in confusion.

He originally wanted to catch fish in the river, but who knew that his legs suddenly cramped and he drowned, thinking that he would die just like that.

Seeing his confused appearance, Shi Qingluo smiled and patted his head.

"Of course someone rescued you, and you didn't die."

Xiao Erlang looked up and saw an older sister who was covered in water, looking at him gently.

He was not stupid and quickly realized that it was this sister who saved him.

"Thank you, sister, for your life-saving grace, I will definitely repay it in the future."

Now there is only one available male left in the family.

Originally, my brother was in a coma. If he died again, I don't know how sad my mother and sister would be.

Shi Qingluo looked at the eight or nine-year-old child so sensible, and had a very good impression of him in his heart.

"Okay, then I'll wait for your repayment later."

For a child, it's good to have a goal for him.

"Where is your home? I'll take you back."

Xiao Erlang originally wanted to decline, but felt embarrassed to trouble this sister again.

Who knew that when he stood up, his feet throbbed, and he could only say embarrassedly, "That's bothering my sister, my house is in the next village."

Shi Qingluo carried the child on his back and walked in the direction he pointed.

The child's home is in Xiaxi Village, just across the river, and there is a wooden bridge to walk across.

Shi Qingluo chatted with the child while walking.

Then I was surprised to find that he was actually Xiao Xiucai's younger brother in the gossip about the women.

His brother injured his leg after falling down the mountain, and then suddenly had a high fever that didn't go away. After taking the medicine, he went back and forth again and again.

His aunt and third aunt took most of the food from the family while his brother was in a coma.

When the family split, there was no money to share, and now his family can't even buy medicine.

Her mother goes up the mountain every day to dig herbs for his brother to boil, while her sister digs wild vegetables to feed the family.

He saw that his brother was getting thinner and thinner, and he heard people say that feeding more broth in it would kill him, but the meat family couldn't afford it, so he wanted to catch fish and make fish soup.

Who knows but almost drowned.

After Shi Qingluo understood it, he felt sympathy for the child, and it was really miserable that the proper house leak was raining overnight.

The house currently divided by Xiao Erlang's family is the old house of the Xiao family, so it is at the back of the village at the end of the village.

Shi Qingluo walked for more than half an hour with Xiao Erlang on his back.

A small dilapidated courtyard appeared in front of me, and there were also households around, but they were not too close.

Pushing the door and walking in, I heard two people crying.

Hearing the door open, a middle-aged woman with red and swollen eyes ran out, followed by a 12- or 13-year-old girl with red eyes.

Mother Xiao was relieved when she saw her son who had suddenly disappeared, and couldn't help but say, "Erlang, where have you been? It scared me to death."

Xiao Erlang looked at his mother guiltily, "Mother, I just wanted to catch a fish, but who knew I was drowning, it was this sister who saved me."

Mother Xiao was not scared to death when she heard this, and her body softened even more.

Fortunately, the younger son was rescued, otherwise what would she do? This is not to dig her heart.

She looked at Shi Qingluo and said gratefully, "Thank you, thank you so much."

She wiped away her tears and continued to pretend to be strong: "Your kindness, we will definitely repay you in the future."

What happened these days almost crushed her.

If it weren't for having several children, she would all die.

Shi Qingluo looked at Xiao's mother, who was said to be weak and bullying, and found that her temper was indeed soft, so she pretended to be strong and calm at this time.

But it can be seen that she really loves her child, and when she hears that her son almost drowned, the nervous and almost unlovable expression is very real.

She smiled, "I just met and saved it, it's nothing."

Mother Xiao was more attentive and saw that Shi Qingluo was still wet, "If you don't dislike it, put on my clothes first, and I'll wash and dry them for you. It will be sunny and dry soon."

"Although it's summer now, it's easy to catch cold when your clothes are wet."

Shi Qingluo was really uncomfortable with wet clothes. She saw that Mother Xiao was wearing patched clothes, but she was clean and tidy.

So he nodded, "Okay, then trouble you."

Mother Xiao waved her hand hastily, "No trouble, no trouble!"

Then she brought Shi Qingluo in to change clothes, took her best set of clothes for Shi Qingluo to change, and took the changed clothes to wash in the yard.

After Shi Qingluo changed her clothes and came out, she sat in the yard and waited while chatting with the three of Xiao's mother.

As a result, a lot of words have been drawn, it is really too simple for these three people.

If the person lying down can't wake up, there is no one to protect them, and I don't know how the three girls will survive.

Shi Qingluo suddenly had an idea.

After Xiao Xiucai split up, this family in the countryside was considered to have a very simple relationship between people.

There is no need for a large family to be crowded together, no grandfather-level elders to press, no uncles and uncles to interfere, there are fewer conflicts between right and wrong, and family members are not difficult to get along with. This kind of family is the first choice for marriage.
