Rebirth in the '70s: The Commander's Wife Wants a Divorce

In her previous life, Zhao Zhenzhu's military officer husband made a mistake, died, and brought shame to their entire family.

To atone for her husband's sins, Zhao Zhenzhu did the hea...

Chapter 76 Do you regret what happened back then?

Zhao Zhenzhu's voice was so surprised that Granny Hua's face changed drastically.

"Pearl! What's wrong with Xiaobo? Did he do something bad outside? Pearl, tell me, or I'll break his legs!" asked Grandma Hua.

"No, no, I just think Xiaobo's appearance has changed a lot in recent years. He doesn't look much like when he was a child. I'm so surprised." Zhao Zhenzhu explained hurriedly.

Zhao Zhenzhu was embarrassed.

Even if she knew what would happen to He Bo in the future, she couldn't say in front of Grandma Hua that her grandson would be shot in the future, right?

It would be strange if Granny Hua didn’t give her boss a slap in the face!

"Yes! Xiaobo has lost the baby fat on his face in the past few years, and he has grown fast. At first glance, he looks very different from when he was a child." Grandma Hua finally breathed a sigh of relief.

In the past six months, He Bo often went out early and came back late, and he would bring back money every month. But it was not fixed, sometimes more, sometimes less.

Granny Hua asked He Bo several times where the money came from.

He Bo only said that he earned it, but as for how he earned it, no matter how Granny Hua asked, He Bo refused to tell.

Granny Hua has always been worried that He Bo had gone astray, which is why she was so sensitive to Zhao Zhenzhu's exclamation today.

He Bo glanced at Zhao Zhenzhu and said nothing.

He Bo felt that Zhao Zhenzhu was not telling the truth.

However, since Zhao Zhenzhu didn't say anything in front of Grandma Hua, He Bo couldn't ask any more questions.

"Grandma Hua, these are the meatballs I fried for lunch today. Please take them back and help me taste them. Xiaobo is here to pick you up, so I won't send you off to your doorstep." Zhao Zhenzhu smiled and handed a paper bag in her hand to Grandma Hua.

When Zhao Zhenzhu was frying eggplant slices at noon, she also fried two plates of meatballs.

The main ingredient of the meatballs is tofu, with chopped meat added in.

Grandma Hua came to the Zhao family and brought some fried dough cakes. Before Zhao Zhenzhu saw Grandma Hua off, she went to the kitchen and made a dozen meatballs as a return gift.

"Oh my, how can I say this? I've taken advantage of you a lot today, and you still give me food." Granny Hua declined.

"Grandma Hua, I made this myself. It's not expensive, just a few. I'll give you a taste." After Zhao Zhenzhu stuffed the paper bag into Grandma Hua's hands, she turned around and ran away.

Even though Zhao Zhenzhu has two lifetimes of experience, she is still not used to dealing with interpersonal relationships.

The pushing, pulling and tearing of giving and receiving gifts gave Zhao Zhenzhu a headache.

Zhao Zhenzhu felt that she was able to make a lot of money in the 21st century because she had a space. Without space, Zhao Zhenzhu would be just an ordinary person.

"Zhenzhu is a kind-hearted child." Grandma Hu looked at Zhao Zhenzhu's back, sighed, and then walked home with the support of He Bo.

Before Zhao Zhenzhu went home, she went to the Wang family next door to pick up her two children.

It's getting late, the children should go to bed.

When Zhao Zhenzhu was taking the two children to take a bath, Zhao Qingshan came back.

As soon as Zhao Qingshan entered the room, he shouted loudly twice: "Meiyun~! Meiyun~!"

"What's the matter? Is there any good news?" Wu Meiyu came out of the house and asked.

Zhao Qingshan's tone was full of excitement, and Wu Meiyun could tell it immediately.

"Meiyun, do you still remember Tao Jiadong? He was my former comrade in the army, the one from the third battalion." Zhao Qingshan grabbed Wu Meiyun's hand, his tone full of excitement.

"Remember, the big foodie Tao Jiadong! He often followed you to my house for free meals. What's wrong with him?" Wu Meiyu asked.

"Tao Jiadong has come to our Taohua Town to serve as the secretary. He said that he would bring Aunt Tao and his brother and sister-in-law to our house for dinner tomorrow night." Zhao Qingshan had a smile on his face. As he spoke, he pulled Wu Meiyu's hand and walked into their room.

Ever since Liang Xiaohe came in, Zhao Qingshan and his wife would talk about private matters in the house.

"Auntie Tao also came to Taohua Town? Did you see her today?" Wu Meiyu's face was full of surprise.

Although they haven't seen each other for more than 30 years, Wu Meiyun still clearly remembers the faces of Tao Jiadong and his mother.

As for Tao Jiadong's wife? Before Wu Meiyun and the others returned to Taohua Town, Tao Jiadong had not yet married!

"Thirty years have passed in the blink of an eye. Time flies. This is not just an empty phrase." Zhao Qingshan said with emotion.

"Qingshan, do you regret what happened back then? If it weren't for me, you would have had a better future if you stayed in the army." Wu Meiyu felt a little guilty.

"Meiyun, we have been married for so many years, don't you still not believe in my feelings for you?" Zhao Qingshan was anxious.

"Qingshan, I don't disbelieve you, I just feel that if I hadn't dragged you down back then, you..."

Wu Meiyu was interrupted by Zhao Qingshan before she could finish her words.

"Meiyun, don't talk about whether you are a burden or not. It was a great blessing for me that you, a lady from a wealthy family, were willing to marry a rough man like me. I just wanted to retire from the army at that time, and it was not because of you that I chose to retire." Zhao Qingshan hugged Wu Meiyun's shoulders and said softly to comfort her.

"Qingshan, but I..."

Wu Meiyun wanted to say more, but Zhao Qingshan quickly changed the subject: "Meiyun, today is such a coincidence. If Zhenzhu hadn't asked me to find the fainted lady, it might have taken some time for me to know that the new Taohua Town Secretary is our old acquaintance."

Wu Meiyu is a bit sentimental.

Zhao Qingshan knew Wu Meiyun’s worries and was afraid that she would continue to blame herself and would not be able to sleep tonight.

"Auntie Tao is the person Zhenzhu is looking for? This is really..." Wu Meiyu was so surprised that she didn't know what to say.

Their friend whom they hadn’t seen for decades fainted because of anger caused by his daughter-in-law Liang Xiaohe as soon as he arrived in Taohua Town?

Wu Meiyu felt her face burning.

"Fortunately, Aunt Tao is very magnanimous, otherwise, we would not be able to face Tao Jiadong's family in the future." As expected of a couple of years, Zhao Qingshan expressed Wu Meiyu's thoughts.

"Qingshan, Tianyu said today that he wants to divorce Liang Xiaohe. What do you think?" Wu Meiyu pointed in the direction of Zhao Tianyu's room and lowered her voice to tell Zhao Qingshan about the incident in which Liang Xiaohe deliberately made trouble.

"Let Tianyu decide for himself. Let's not interfere." Zhao Qingshan was furious when he heard this.

If Zhao Tianyu had listened to his advice three years ago, he wouldn't have to cause them trouble every other day.

"You know, the Liang family is not easy to deal with. Tianyu wants a divorce, and we don't know how the Liang family will make a fuss! If you don't care, can Tianyu handle it alone?" Wu Meiyu sighed and said.

If you meet unreasonable in-laws, you will suffer once when you get married and again when you get divorced.

Wu Meiyu felt a headache just thinking about it.

"Let them make a fuss. Tianyu, this kid, should be more careful." Zhao Qingshan saw Wu Meiyun's worried face and couldn't help but relax: "Don't worry, I'm here! If Tianyu can't handle it, I'll take action."

"Yeah." Wu Meiyu responded.
