She thought for a while: "Mother, is that person really better than the Gu family? He won't be like the butcher, will he?"

Seeing her daughter wavering, Yang's mother was secretly pleased and tried even harder to persuade her: "Don't worry, he's not a butcher. His name is Zhu Dachang. His family is definitely better off than the Gu family. Besides, he said that as long as you don't have any ties with the Gu family, he will help get your brother out of trouble. His family is rich and powerful."

You'll have a good life right away. You won't have to worry about not having money.

Look at how the Gu family has treated you all these years, so stingy. Isn't your eldest son's family still in debt?

"You need to think carefully about whether you want to go back to living a frugal life or live a wealthy one."

Yang's mother deliberately did not tell Yang Zhaodi how much the Zhu family would give as betrothal gifts.

Since she's already married into the family, the bride price is hers, so she doesn't feel the need to tell her.

Gu Laoda and Gu Xichen both saw and heard the conversation between the mother and daughter.

But they didn't say anything.

Their goal today is simple: Gu Laoda wants a divorce.

Other things were not within their consideration.

Gu Laoda didn't care who Yang Zhaodi would marry in the future; that was her business.

As long as she agrees to a divorce, stops causing trouble for their family, stops targeting their family, and stops harming their two children.

"But the children." Thinking of her two daughters, Yang Zhaodi still felt a little reluctant.

“The Zhu family already has three children. If you bring them along, wouldn’t you just be a burden?” Mother Yang continued to persuade her.

Yang Zhaodi was speechless after that.

She looked at the man she had lived with for over a decade and asked, "Ah Liang, do you really not want me anymore?"

Deep down, she still hoped that he still cared about her.

But she was disappointed.

Gu Laoda said expressionlessly, "Get a divorce while she's still at work. From now on, go your separate ways and marry whoever you want."
