"Are we still getting a divorce?"
Her rough husband threatened her while gripping her waist. She had no choice but to beg for mercy, "No, we're not getting a divorce, we'r...
The damaged fence gate was pushed open, and Lu Guohua, the head of the household, rode his own old-fashioned bicycle into the yard, clutching a blue-covered village genealogy book and a white cloth the size of a book.
"Who wants to write a letter severing ties with their family?"
As soon as Lu Guohua, who was in his fifties, entered the courtyard, he got off his bicycle, put on a Zhongshan suit, put one hand behind his back, straightened his back, and raised the blue village genealogy in his hand with a stern expression.
A village genealogy, as the name suggests, records the history of a village's upheavals and development.
The village genealogy book in his hand tells him which year, which family, and what major events happened in Blackwater Village!
It is both a record and a judgment.
And that white cloth, once written on it, becomes a judgment.
These two items are only brought out for important occasions, and they are things that are rarely seen. The last time the white cloth was brought out was when a family in the east of Blackwater Village kicked their own son out of their home!
Upon seeing these two things, Li Xiuying's legs went weak and she collapsed to the ground!
Her wrinkled old face turned ashen white at this moment. She never expected that Qin Zheng would actually sever ties with her, and she never expected that someone would actually invite a powerful figure to help her!
Ye Yun also silently looked at Qin Zheng.
Unexpectedly, this man was serious.
"No! Nobody wants to write a letter severing ties!"
Before anyone could speak, Li Xiuying shouted at the top of her lungs!
Fearing that Qin Zheng might actually write a letter severing ties, she quickly smiled and tried to establish a connection with Lü Guohua: "Brother Guohua, what brings you here? Zhengzi is my son, how could he write a letter severing ties!"
Huh?
Hearing this, Lü Guohua looked at her with a puzzled expression, scratched the back of his head, and said, "When Erdanzi called me, he said Qin Zheng was going to write a letter severing ties with his family..."
No! Absolutely not!
Li Xiuying wanted to argue, but Qin Zheng, who was taking care of Ye Yun, had already stood up.
"It's my choice to write it."
Qin Zheng remained calm and composed, accepting the scrutiny of countless gazes with an open and honest demeanor.
Lu Guohua immediately realized, slapped his forehead and said, "That's right, I knew I wasn't mistaken... That Qin Zheng, severing ties with a family is no small matter, have you really thought it through?"
"I've thought it through."
Qin Zheng's face was deep and open. He didn't even glance at Li Xiuying. In his hoarse voice, he said, word by word, "True kinship is based on love and affection. My own mother has none of these. She even came to my house to bully my wife and take her belongings. Her bullying of my wife is her bullying of me. Since there is no love or affection, then let's sever ties!"
The last four words were spoken with resounding force!
The entire audience fell into a stunned silence.
A huge crowd had gathered inside and outside the courtyard, but miraculously, not a single person dared to utter a sound.
Li Xiuying was so angry she could hardly breathe, but in front of Lü Guohua, she didn't dare to lose her temper. She gritted her teeth and said, "Zhengzi, you heartless wolf cub..."
"Tsk! What are you saying!"
Lu Guohua glared at Li Xiuying. What kind of mother talks to her own son like that?
"Qin Zheng, are you really sure about this?" Lu Guohua turned his gaze to Qin Zheng again and asked seriously.
Qin Zheng nodded firmly.
"Alright, as long as you say you want to sever ties with your family, I'll start writing!"
"No! No way! Brother Guohua, this is absolutely unacceptable!" Li Xiuying was so frightened when she saw Lü Guohua about to take out his pen that she quickly grabbed his hand.
Why only ask Qin Zheng if he wants to break up with her? Why not ask her if she wants to break up with her?
"Li Xiuying! That's enough!"
Lu Guohua pushed Li Xiuying away with a look of disgust, too lazy to ask for her opinion. Many things were already out in the open, so why bother asking?
It's a fact that a mother doesn't love her son!
