Just moments ago, Jia Zhangshi had been very cooperative with Cui Dake, but now she was dumbfounded. What? Dake wanted to divorce her?!

Madam Jia looked at Cui Dake incredulously, as if trying to discern something from his face.

Unfortunately, Cui Dake had already planned it out in his mind; this Jia Zhangshi was old, ugly, and fat.

If I hadn't had no other choice back then, I wouldn't have gotten together with her.

Hmph, I'm not that country bumpkin I used to be anymore. Why should I?

Other people's wives are so young and beautiful, why are they so cute? Only mine is so ugly.

After Cui Da Ke was valued by his superiors, he had been plotting how to get rid of Jia Zhang Shi, but he never had the chance.

Now look what's happened! Jia Zhangshi, you actually indulged in feudal superstition!

This isn't my fault; it's God's help.

Cui Dake thought to himself, "After all, I did warn Jia Zhangshi beforehand. It's Jia Zhangshi's own fault for being stupid."

No wonder.

Liu Lan frowned upon hearing Cui Dake mention wanting a divorce, then turned to Ma Hua and asked, "Ma Hua,..."

Are all men like this? I've heard that...

Cui Da's current situation is entirely due to this Jia Zhangshi giving him the opportunity. Hmph.

Now Cui Dake thinks he's all that? And he's starting to despise his wife who's shared his hardships?

When Ma Hua heard Liu Lan ask this, he instinctively chuckled awkwardly and said, "Ahem, Sister Lan, you know me..."

I'm not married yet, how would I know about such things? I don't know, maybe.

He thought to himself, "This Jia Zhangshi is supposed to be a wife who has shared hardship and poverty? She seems to be even worse than a wife who has shared hardship and poverty."

"Hmph, all men are the same, stinky men." Liu Lan looked at Cui Dake with some disgust.

Seeing Liu Lan like this, Ma Hua understood that Liu Lan must be thinking about her husband again.

Liu Lan's husband is not only incompetent, but he also abused her before, and later he took all the family's money to eat, drink, and gamble.

The reason Liu Lan got together with Li Huaide was largely due to this, since Liu Lan had a daughter to support.

"Sigh, every family has its own troubles. Just focus on doing your own thing," Ma Hua sighed.

He had wanted to help Liu Lan before, but she refused.

Just as MCA was about to say something more, they suddenly heard Jia Zhangshi's frantic wails on stage:

"Dake, Dake, please don't do this, please don't do this!"

"Da Ke, if you think I've done anything wrong, just tell me, and I'll change. I really will."

"Please, please don't abandon me!" Jia Zhangshi's voice grew louder and louder, drawing the curious attention of everyone present.

Good heavens, is this still the same shrew who caused trouble at the steel mill back then?

Everyone still vividly remembers Jia Zhangshi; she was a ruthless woman, and everyone still holds a grudge.

When Jia Zhangshi's son, Jia Dongxu, died in a work-related accident at the steel rolling mill...

Jia Zhangshi used to be so fierce and assertive at the factory. How did she become like this?

Or is it that this Cui Da Ke is truly charming?

But when Cui Dake heard Jia Zhangshi's cries, he felt nothing but disdain.

Hmph, I'm definitely going to divorce you.

Thinking of this, Cui Dake shouted loudly to the crowd: "Comrades!! It's not that I, Cui Dake, am heartless,

It's this Zhang Xiaohua, who actually engages in feudal superstition. I, Cui Dake, am a member of our steel mill's sports meet...

I am determined to sever all ties with this kind of person, and I must completely cut off all contact with backward elements like Zhang Xiaohua!

"Comrades, do you know how much pain I felt when Zhang Xiaohua was promoting feudal superstition?"

I feel so guilty. I initially thought it was because I hadn't raised her well, but then I realized...

No, this Zhang Xiaohua is the kind of person who does this.

She is a bad element hiding among our people, a traitor.

Cui Dake spoke with such fervor that the crowd's gazes towards Jia Zhangshi were a mixture of sympathy, disgust, and pity.

At this moment, Madam Jia's face clearly showed signs of panic.

Why is this different from what Da Ke told me earlier?

Just because you make a public show of getting a divorce doesn't mean you can get the steel mill's housing management department to repair your house for free.

But looking at Da Ke like this, something just doesn't seem right.

The more Jia Zhangshi thought about it, the more uncertain she became. She grew increasingly anxious.

What should I do if Cui Dake really does it?

Madam Jia quickly whispered to Cui Dake, "Dake, isn't your acting almost over?"

I think this is fine.

But when Cui Dake heard Jia Zhangshi say that, a cold glint flashed in his eyes. "Still acting?"

Who's acting with you? Are you kidding me?

As expected of you, old and foolish Jia Zhangshi, I actually managed to fool you like this, to this extent.

Do you really think I'm just joking with you?

LOL, you're so ugly, I'd be disgusted to death long ago. If you looked like your daughter-in-law, I wouldn't have done this.

To prevent Jia Zhangshi from causing a scene on stage, Cui Dake suppressed his anger and replied in a low voice:

Don't worry, it'll be ready soon. I only said that to impress the boss.

What's wrong? If you don't want to be an old lady, then let's leave it at that for today."

"It's alright, Da Ke, I can endure it." Jia Zhangshi originally wanted to persuade Cui Dake to give up.

But when he thought of the old lady in the courtyard that Cui Dake had told him about, a surge of strength immediately welled up inside him.
