CHAPTER 246: CHAPTER 245: A VERY AWESOME SISTER (FOURTH UPDATE)

Inside the house, Zhuangzi, who was panting and leaning against the wall, completely gave up his feelings for Mu Zhenzhen because of her words. He took the divorce paper, which he had prepared a long time ago, and walked out of the house.

"Zhenzhen, this is the divorce paper for you. You... better leave our Zhao family quickly."

Mu Zhenzhen was stunned. The person in front of her, with a chubby figure and fat flying across his face, used to always be accommodating to her, yet now he dares...

"Zhuangzi, do you know what you’re saying? I’ll give you a chance, apologize to me and make me happy right now, and I’ll forgive you! Otherwise, don’t ever expect me to pay attention to you again."

Mu Zhenzhen marrying Zhuangzi was completely like a fresh flower stuck on cow dung, so Zhuangzi, the cow dung, had been accustomed to being submissive in front of Mu Zhenzhen over the years, and Mu Zhenzhen was also used to having a cowardly person yielding to her.

"Zhenzhen, the divorce paper is here. Whether you want it or not, we can’t go back. My mother has already arranged a marriage for me, and the eighth day of next month she’ll be moving in."

Zhuangzi spoke with ease, but Mu Zhenzhen’s face had already twisted in anger.

"You... you even dare to marry another woman, are you being fair to me?"

"Bitch, did you hear what my son said? Get lost quickly!" Zhuangzi’s mother started to chase Mu Zhenzhen away. If Mu Zhenzhen hadn’t climbed the wall today, she absolutely wouldn’t have let her in.

"Exactly, quickly leave our Dahuo Village, our Dahuo Village doesn’t have a slut like you, Mu Zhenzhen." The crowd watching the excitement outside joined in, shouting and cursing.

Originally, everyone thought, this time Mu Zhenzhen should be beaten. Who knew she wouldn’t give up and not only didn’t give up but became even more arrogant.

"I spit on you! I haven’t wanted Zhuangzi from your family for a long time. He’s fat, ugly, and greasy! Besides me, Mu Zhenzhen, I don’t believe anyone else could tolerate him. And I’m young and beautiful, I can easily marry into a good family. Just wait, I’ll make you regret it then!"

Mu Zhenzhen stomped Zhuangzi underfoot, harshly humiliating him.

Actually, Mu Zhenzhen wasn’t sad at all at this moment. She was expressing all her thoughts from the bottom of her heart. If she really separated from Zhao’s family, she wouldn’t be at a loss; she could just find another one, even if she hadn’t had children, she was still good-looking.

"You shameless woman, I’ll beat you to death today." Zhuangzi’s mother waved her hands and was about to hit Mu Zhenzhen, and Mu Zhenzhen was not to be outdone, the two ended up wrestling together in the courtyard, rolling back and forth.

Pulling hair and kicking bellies, they were locked in a fierce fight.

The men of the Old Mu Family stood by, not intervening, because they thought as men, they shouldn’t hit women.

In the end, it was Zhuangzi’s mother who won, throwing Mu Zhenzhen out like a piece of rag. The village women, seeing this, wrapped up their kicks.

A few daring ones even tore open Mu Zhenzhen’s bag, taking clothes, jewelry, and even her rouge box. When Mu Zhenzhen was released, the only thing left in her sight was a bag broken into pieces.

Enraged, Mu Zhenzhen stomped on the spot, cursing in front of Zhuangzi’s house for a long time.

When Mu Zhenzhen returned to the Old Mu Family, it was already dusk. Her clothes were ripped, her hair turned into a bird’s nest, her face was blue and purple, utterly disheveled.

In the twilight glow, even her shadow appeared lonely.

Mu Shuangshuang was returning from the fields, just in time to encounter Mu Zhenzhen in this state. She wasn’t curious at all; Yu Si Niang asked symbolically.

"Zhenzhen, what happened to you?"

Mu Zhenzhen pouted her mouth and held Yu Si Niang, bursting into tears. "Wow... Third sister-in-law, I... I’ve been divorced by Zhuangzi!"

It was the first time Mu Zhenzhen sincerely called Yu Si Niang sister-in-law, Yu Si Niang was moved with compassion, gently patting Mu Zhenzhen’s back, "It’s ok, our Zhenzhen is pretty, isn’t there anyone you’d want? Zhuangzi’s conditions aren’t as good as yours, so he should be the one regretting..."

Mu Shuangshuang had long known about Mu Zhenzhen being abandoned; with a personality like Zhuangzi’s mother, it’s a miracle she hadn’t come to the Old Mu Family to cause trouble.

Mu Zhenzhen’s marriage failure wasn’t because she didn’t have children, but because she didn’t treat people as people. With such a good mother-in-law, she was still so arrogant and lazy. If not being divorced, then who would be?

Ignoring Yu Si Niang comforting, Mu Shuangshuang walked alone on her way home.

She had to make dinner early. Tonight, she wanted to prepare some dumplings, stuffed with vegetables, chives and meat, and also the mushrooms they picked yesterday, mushroom stuffing.

On the way home, Mu Shuangshuang detoured to Wang Erma’s and weighed three taels of mixed fat and lean meat, contentedly prepared the dinner.

Back home, Mu Shuangshuang took the cooked pigweed, mixed with some leftovers, fed the piglets. The little creatures seemed to have adapted to this lifestyle, munching on the pig food.

Unfortunately, grain was very precious in ancient times, otherwise, she could learn from modern people to feed pigs with leftovers.

Since Mu Shuangshuang started cooking, her family had never wasted food; even Little Zhi and Xiao Han never left a grain of rice in their bowls after eating, let alone have leftovers for feeding pigs.

Fortunately, there was still a good thing for feeding pigs—rice bran. Mu Shuangshuang thought about asking around in the village tomorrow to see who had rice bran, and buy some back. It’s best for feeding pigs.

After feeding the pigs, Mu Shuangshuang started preparing dinner. She was trying to balance meat and vegetables, see if it could improve the family’s complexion; working so much every day, they shouldn’t go unfed and unclothed.

Mu Shuangshuang mixed the flour with water and was about to knead it when Xiao Han walked out of the house, still holding that book.

He stared at Mu Shuangshuang for a long time before daring to ask. "Sister, you said last time, would Liu Zian be my teacher, is it true?"

Xiao Han lowered his head, looking at his shoes; there’s a big hole in them, and his toes were protruding out.

He didn’t think life was particularly hard, but he didn’t want to burden the family. If the teacher required money before teaching him, he wouldn’t study.

"Does Xiao Han want to learn to read?" Mu Shuangshuang stared at Mu Xiaohan, her kneading hand stopped.

Mu Xiaohan hesitated for a moment before nodding.

From the time he saw those books, he felt he liked books.

Mu Shuangshuang took the book from his hand and pointed to the characters on it, saying, "This book is called ’Ritual,’ it’s basically about some etiquette and rituals, you could also call it Zhou Rites!"

Xiao Han was stunned by Mu Shuangshuang’s words, "Sister, you know how to read?"

But soon, Mu Xiaohan denied it; if Sister knew how to read, how would he not know?

"This is what Sister wants to tell you next, you must listen carefully!"
