Although Quanzi spoke calmly, the argument must have been intense, otherwise how could they have broken off their relationship? Ye Qingqing looked at her sympathetically. She had thought the divorce would go smoothly because Quanzi looked well before.

"Your ex-husband wants a divorce, but that's not your decision. Your brothers are being unreasonable," my cousin said angrily.

Quanzi shook her head. "I initiated the divorce. My ex-husband did not agree to the divorce, but I insisted. Several elders from my ex-husband's family and my own family all tried to persuade me to be patient, but I did not agree."

The past can be summarized in a single sentence, but the torment of those few days almost drove Quanzi to the brink of collapse. If it weren't for the support of her two sons, she might not have been able to get a divorce.

After all, the husband's family was powerful and influential, while her maternal family was just an ordinary family and could not compete with such a large family.

But her sons supported her, especially her youngest son, Minami Tsumabuki, because he had a high social status and a higher position in the family than some of the elders. His words carried a lot of weight, which is why she was able to get a smooth divorce and receive a large sum of money.

But the coldness of her family was more damaging than the harm caused by her ex-husband. Quanzi did not regret severing ties with her family. A family that only took advantage of her was better off without.

“The man has already betrayed you, so you should take the initiative to divorce him. There’s no point in just making do. You did the right thing. It’s your family that were foolish. They will regret it later.” My cousin was very supportive.

She didn't divorce her husband back then because her children were still young, and she definitely couldn't support them all by herself, nor could she take them all with her. So she chose to endure it, but ended up feeling suffocated.

Quanzi smiled slightly, feeling much more at ease.

"I'll take you to see the school tomorrow. If you think it's okay, you can start working right away. We'll live a good life, even better than them." Her cousin patted Quanzi on the shoulder.

"Yes, thank you. I feel much better now."

Quanzi was very grateful. She had been keeping these worries to herself for a long time, and she had no one to talk to. It was so hard to hold back her feelings. She felt much better after she said everything today.

My cousin laughed heartily, "No need to thank me, we're family, no need to be so polite. Let's go out and watch TV."

Master Nie, who was crouching at the door with a teacup in his hand, immediately slipped away and jogged to a corner to continue supervising the two children's chess game. As soon as he sat down, Xiao Tong asked curiously, "Master, why did it take you so long to pour the tea?"

"I just went to the restroom. Keep playing your game, stop with the nonsense."

Master Nie glared at her, annoyed. Xiao Tong immediately lowered her head to play chess, but she couldn't understand why it would take so long to go to the toilet. Her master must have gone to steal food again.

The next day, Ye Qingqing called her cousin to find out that Quanzi had passed the interview and would be able to start work next week. Her monthly salary was 2,500 yuan, which was considered a high salary for a night school. The principal gave her the salary because of her authentic Kyoto accent. It was not easy to find a foreign teacher with an authentic Kyoto accent, and Quanzi spoke Kyoto Japanese exceptionally well.

Ye Qingqing was also happy for Quanzi. A salary of 2,500 yuan was nothing in Kyoto, but the cost of living was low in Pingjiang, so 2,500 yuan was really a high salary. Some families didn't even earn 2,500 yuan as a whole!

Ye Mingcheng's test results came out in the afternoon, and everything was normal, which put Ye Qingqing's mind at ease.

Thinking of Li Shanxing, she had a sudden thought and called Xiao Li to warn her to be careful of Li Shanxing, as Ye Qingqing always felt that Li Shanxing had bad intentions towards Xiao Li.
