Transmigrated as the Ex-Wife of the Villain Who Dotes on His Daughter

Hearing Jiang Rou say this, Li Xiao had no choice but to carry the child to the kitchen to serve the dishes.

　In the evening, there are also three dishes and a soup. Jiang Rou is quite particular about food, and pays attention to the balance of taste and nutrition. For example, the dishes she eats today should try not to be the same as yesterday's.

　Unlike Li Xiao, if it is a dish he likes, he will keep buying it. There was a period of time before when he liked the minced meat and eggplant made by Jiang Rou, and he bought eggplant every day, and Jiang Rou almost vomited.

　After that, she would tell him what vegetables to buy every day and not let him choose by himself.

　Jiang Rou put the undried shoes in the fire barrel to dry.

　Then he went to the kitchen to wash his hands. Li Xiao was holding the child in one hand and using a spatula to scoop rice in the other.

　Jiang Rou washed her hands and walked over to take the chopsticks from both of them.

　During the meal, the two of them were no longer silent like they used to be. Although Li Xiao still didn't talk much, every time Jiang Rou said a few words he would respond once or twice to show that he was listening.

　Jiang Rou’s circle is not very big now, but who can blame her for being popular? She knows all the gossip around her. Even though Li Xiao runs around outside every day, he doesn’t hear as much as she does.

　Just like what Jiang Rou said now, she suddenly spoke mysteriously: "Do you know? Something happened in Zhu Qiang's family."

　When Li Xiao heard Zhu Qiang, he subconsciously looked up at her and raised his eyebrows.

　He knew that every time Jiang Rou asked this question, he didn't actually need to answer it, she would tell the truth herself.

　Sure enough, before Li Xiao could speak, Jiang Rou immediately said, "Today I heard a few aunts talking about how Zhu Qiang's brother-in-law was tricked into marriage."

　At that time, the concept of marriage fraud didn't seem to exist yet, so I added, fearing that he didn't understand what I meant, "It's his wife Mei Zi's brother, the one with polio. Some time ago, he met a pretty girl, and then he wanted to marry her, and she agreed, but she asked for a high gift. But two days after the wedding, she disappeared, and the gift was gone too."

　"Later, I don't know who said that the girl had done the same thing in another village a few years ago. She would run away after staying for less than two years. This time she ran away so quickly. I'm afraid that after getting the money, she didn't even want to cheat anymore."

　In fact, what those aunts said was more direct. They said that Zhu Qiang's father-in-law and his family were ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth, and did not even look at what their own son looked like. The girl was good-looking, and suddenly appeared and approached your son, so there must be a problem.

　You actually want to marry her, isn't that just inviting a thief into your home?

　"I heard that Zhu Qiang didn't know about this. His brother-in-law held the wedding without informing him. Maybe the betrothal gift is related to the Zhu family. Mei Zi's family is very poor. How could they afford such a high betrothal gift? They didn't tell him because they were afraid that Zhu Qiang would be unhappy if he knew about it."

　I can only say that what Mei Zi's family did was a bit unkind.

　Zhu Qiang said that Mei Zi's parents did not favor boys over girls, but Mei Zi obviously sided with her mother's family.
