“I had just put down the pigeon and was about to go to the latrine when I met Auntie Four. She said you guys were in this room, so I came over to say hello.” Yang Yongxian said.

"Oh, so that's how it is!" Yang Huamei replied coldly, then turned her head away.

Yang Ruqing and Yang Rulan also remained silent, asking nothing about the price of the pigeon nor offering any advice on dietary adjustments for women who have miscarried, as one might expect from someone with experience.

When Yang Yongxian was feeling a little surprised, Tan spoke up.

"Bring those two pigeons over here to my house, I want to eat them!" said Mrs. Tan.

>

Yang Yongxian was surprised for a moment, then smiled and said, "Mother, don't worry, I specially chose a pair that were bigger when I picked them,"

“Thinking of your headache, I went back and made a soup for you. I'll bring you a bowl to help you feel better…”

Tan interrupted Yang Yongxian, "I want to eat both pigeons. I won't leave a single mouthful of soup for Li Xiu Xin!"

Yang Yongxian was even more surprised, and looked a little embarrassed at Yang Huamei and Yang Ruqing behind him. There were question marks in his eyes.

Yang Huamei and the other two looked at the sky, the ground, and their own palms, but they didn't look at Yang Yongxian.

Yang Yongxian was at a loss, he turned to Tan and asked, "Mother, isn't this wrong? Xi Xin just suffered a miscarriage, her body is weak..."

"Weak? Don't be ridiculous!" Mrs. Tan snapped, "If she were weak, she wouldn't have chased your aunts and their friends out like a pack of wild women. She's strong as an ox, I tell you! No need to feel sorry for her!"

“Huh?” Yang Yongxian opened his mouth wide, “Mom, what are you saying? I don’t understand.”

>

Tan said: “Your Aunt Meili and sisters Qing'er and Lan'er came over with gifts to visit Li Xiu Xin, but Li Xiu Xin scolded them and drove them all out!”

“Could this be true?” Yang Yongxian’s eyes widened in astonishment, his face etched with disbelief.

"I wasn't home this morning. What happened? Tell me clearly!" he said again.

Tan said, "Meili, you tell me!"

Yang Huamei cleared her throat and explained the whole story.

After finishing his words, Yang Yongxian's face changed. He stood there, his brows furrowed, and his whole demeanor instantly soured.

"How could Xiu Xin be such an ignorant person?" Yang Yongxian murmured.

Yang Huamei said, "This isn't about not knowing one's place. This is about not knowing what's good for you!"

Yang Yongxian glanced at Yang Huamei, his face even darker.

Yang Huamei said, "Yongxian, your aunt didn't lie to you, and she didn't exaggerate. If you don't believe me, you can ask Qing'er," Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"Qing'er would never lie. Ask her yourself!"

Yang Yongxian shook his head, a face full of dejection, and said: “Don’t ask anymore, I believe it!”

"If you believe us, that's fine. We truly haven't lied to you, and we haven't embellished the story at all. The facts are as they are." Yang Huamei added.

Yang Yongxian stood there, silent.

Tan said, "This Li Xiu Xin, what is good about her? She has no manners and hasn't even given birth to a child."

“When your grandpa comes back, I’ll talk to him. We’ll either divorce Li Xiu Xin and find a new wife!”

“If you don’t relent, go to a slave trader and buy a woman to be your concubine. She will bear children for you and continue your lineage!”

In the past, upon hearing such words, Yang Yongxian's first reaction would definitely be refusal.

But at this moment, Yang Yongxian fell silent.

In the room, everyone else remained silent. Only Tan Shi was there, angrily condemning Li Xiu Xin. She recounted every incident since Li Xiu Xin had entered, criticizing her harshly.

Yang Yongxian didn't even utter half a sentence in rebuttal, let alone defend himself.

On the contrary, his face was blank, a kind of utter disappointment, a piercing chill.

Seeing Yang Yongxian's expression, Yang Ruqing secretly sighed in her heart.

As a man, and a man who cares about his image, how much pressure Big Brother must be under, right?

When he first got together with Li Xiu Xin and married her, wasn't he happy and blissful?

In modern terms, he and Li Xiuxin were in a free love relationship. The two often exchanged letters through Li Xiuxin's younger brother who was studying at the school.

There was also a period of passionate romance between them.

>

Now, it's become like this, constantly wearing away at each other's love. Until the day when that love completely disappears,

And when there are no children to bind them together, perhaps their marriage truly comes to an end.

As for such things, Yang Ruqing has always disliked seeing and hearing about them.

"Nanny, if your head aches, you should speak less." Yang Ruqing finally spoke up, interrupting Tan Shi's words.

"Let's let my brother handle his own affairs first. He's an adult and should know what kind of life he wants to live."

Though Tan Shi still listened to some of Yang Ruqing's words.

Tan said with a snort, “My head hurts even worse now. All of you leave. I need to sleep for a while.”

Yang Ruqing said, "Mom, I think I still have some Tianma at home. I'll go check later and if I find some, I'll stew it in soup and bring it over to you."

Tan nodded, and with the help of Yang Huamei and Yang Ruoqing, she lay back down in her bed.

"Qing'er, what do you think Big Brother will do when he gets back home? I bet he'll start an argument with his sister-in-law again?"

On the way back, Yang Ruolan lowered her voice and asked Yang Ruoqing this.

Yang Ruqing said, "Have they had fewer fights? What difference does one more make?"

Yang Ruolan said, “That’s true, but this time the situation is different. Sister-in-law has gone too far. This way, she is not giving face to our family, nor to Big Brother, nor to the entire Yang family.”

"I was just thinking, could it be that Big Brother would really divorce his sister-in-law?"

"If I were to marry again, wouldn't Ping'er be just perfect?" she said.

>

Yang Ruqing's footsteps stopped. She looked at Yang Rulan and said, "Don't drag Ping'er into this again. Ping'er just wants to get herself out of this whirlpool now."

“I could tell that Ping'er was utterly disappointed in her brother, so she had given up.”

“As for someone with a personality like Ping'er's, if she had feelings for her elder brother and he wasn't so weak, if Li Xiu had slapped Ping'er, he wouldn't even dare to utter a word,”

“If he had stood up to it right from the start, even as a concubine, I think Ping'er would have been willing.”

"It was the eldest brother's weakness and procrastination that pushed Ping'er further and further away."

After hearing Yang Ruohua's analysis, Yang Rulan's face was full of emotion.

"This reminded me of Yu Jinhao..." she murmured. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate! ?

"At first, when I just picked it from Song's place, I met Yu Jinhua. I also wanted to find a reliable and honest person who wouldn't look down on me and live a good life together."

But when bad guys came to bully me, he would just lie down. It was me who fought desperately to get in front of him and protect him.

Here is the translation of your provided text: Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

>“When he ran away with his younger sister, Yu Jinguai, my heart really turned cold…”

“A woman, no matter how capable the man she's going to marry is, it doesn't matter. Just cook as much rice as his appetite requires. If life becomes a little harder, so be it,” Yang Rulan continued.

"The most important thing is that this man must be able to shoulder responsibility. Clearly, our older brother lacks in this area, which is why Ping'er has decided to make things clear and stop entangled with him!"
