Yang Village would feel honored even as they spread the news.
Qiao Xuan said coldly, “You have made a huge mistake and almost ruined my Third Brother and my Third Sister-in-law’s life. How dare you blame her? My Third Sister-in-law is from the Yang Village, and she will always remember that. But she will never accept you as her family!!
Shao Yunduan added. “I am planning to establish a school in the village and I will buy 300- 400 mu of good fields to support the school costs. I am also going to invite children from the village to attend the school. The Yang Village is very close to my village, and I can spare ten places in the school for this village…”
People’s eyes were sparkling already. They were both surprised and happy.
“Really?”
“For real?”
The Land Officer tried to press down the excitement in his heart. “Recommended man Shao, are you sure?”
“Of course, I am not going to lie in front of you, right? Those students will not have to pay a penny for the tuition fees. They will get ink and paper on a monthly basis too.”
“That is great!
“Yeah, my son can attend the school without tuition fees and even get the paper and ink! I can really afford to let them study!’
“Same here! I don’t expect them to be very successful. The t.i.tle of a Cultivated
Talent can get them a job at a bank in the town!”
“Yeah, being able to read leads to more work opportunities.”
They were talking as they threw unkind looks at Yang Liang and Ms. Tian.
Everyone started to curse the couple.
They did not stop until the Land Officer asked them to. But they all said that Ms. Tian should be punished and thrown out of the family.
This evil-hearted woman should not stay at the Yang Village to ruin the Yang
Village’s reputation.
The Land Officer thought so too. He had never liked Ms. Tian, who was so unreasonable, and Yang Liang could not even control her. He was the Land Officer, but he had not been able to get involved in villagers’ family affairs.
So, if she could be driven away on this occasion, that would be great.
No one would want her to stay here any longer.
Nis. Tian had no supporters around her. She panicked as she shouted at Yang Xiaoni. “Yang Xiaoni, I gave you food and shelter, but you are driving me out? You should think about your brother and your two nephews. If your parents were alive and saw their grandchildren losing their mother at this age, they would never forgive you!’
With that, she burst out into tears.
Yang Xiaoni could not stand it. She turned away, saying nothing.
Shao Sanlang snapped at her though. “Shut your mouth! You almost got my wife killed. Why should she forgive you?”
Qiao Xuan said, “Ms. Tian, stop blaming my Third Sister-in-law for anything. You caused your sons’ misfortune. But for your evil plans, Land Officer and elder men from the clan would never have driven you out. You don’t deserve to be part of the Yang Village. Why is my Third Sister-in-law involved in this?”
“You are a ruthless woman and you may not be a good mother. Maybe your sons would be taught by you to do something even worse!”
The Land Officer, who had been hesitating, made up his mind after hearing Qiao Xuan’s words. “Divorce now! Ms. Tian will be sent to the ancestral hall and afterwards, she will be sent back to her home the following morning!’
“No, no, you can’t treat me like this.” Ms. Tian burst out into tears. The two children were very scared and started crying too,
Yang Liang suddenly stepped forward. “Land Officer, and elders! Don’t make me divorce her. We will leave the Yang Village and will never come back.. I swear, we will never return…
