Zhou Ruilan shook her head: "I don't want to."

She wants to stay at her parents' house but doesn't want a divorce; this situation definitely can't last.

Qin Hanshu then asked, "What is Yang Guangyu's attitude?"

"Just admit your mistakes." Zhou Ruilan sneered, "How many mistakes has he admitted over the years? When has he ever actually done it? I will never believe him again."

"Third sister-in-law, you don't know how annoying he is. No matter who I have a conflict with, he always makes me apologize."

“I caught my neighbor stealing my coal briquettes, and I just cursed at him a couple of times. Instead, he told me to apologize to him, saying that I shouldn’t ruin our neighborly relations.”

"I was wronged at work, and when I got home I told him, and he told me to bear with it, saying that suffering a loss is a blessing. I'm not the kind of person who's too assertive, and I usually don't fuss over small things, but he really is..."

“What angers me the most is his sister-in-law. He always sides with her, saying that she has suffered a lot of grievances from her parents-in-law since marrying into the Yang family and that she is not living a good life.”

"I just don't understand. My in-laws treat her badly, so why should I compensate them? Do I owe them something?! The worst part is, she treats me badly, takes advantage of me all the time, and is always being sarcastic and mean-spirited with me..."

"She knows my second brother from my maternal family got promoted, and she's been making a huge fuss about getting her nephew a job in the government. Yang Guangyu even sided with her! Screw her! Ugh! Out of sight, out of mind, I'm going back to my parents' house for some peace and quiet!"

Zhu Jingsu said that Zhou Ruilan went back to her parents' home because of a coat, so it seems that Zhou Ruilan was too embarrassed to tell Zhu Jingsu the truth.

Qin Hanshu felt a headache coming on just listening to it.

Although Yang Guangyu didn't commit any fundamental offenses, his lifestyle... was truly excessive.

For so many years, they've been making a fuss over such a small thing.

She thought for a moment and said, "Lanhua, after the New Year, why don't you come with me to Jiangcheng for a while?"

Zhou Ruilan was taken aback, "Going to Jiangcheng for fun?"

"Yes, let's go for a walk to relax and take Lele with us so she can see the world."

Zhou Ruilan hesitated and said, "I have to go to work, and Lele has to go to school."

"Why don't you ask for leave?" Qin Hanshu suggested. "Let your second brother get you a sick leave certificate. We'll leave on the eighth day of the lunar new year. Lele won't start school until after the Lantern Festival, right? Even if it's really not possible, just take a few days off. It won't cause any major problems."

"If a person stays in a negative environment for too long, they will become depressed. Changing the environment and changing the mood is good for the body."

Zhou Ruilan was persuaded by Qin Hanshu; she was really annoyed with herself.
