Liu Mei no longer uses gestures. She knows simple pinyin and writes each character stroke by stroke: wo yao li hun.
These four simple pinyin characters are what Liu Mei learned and wrote the most when she followed her second son to learn to read.
Now, Liu Mei finally told Qiao Weiguo clearly that she must divorce him.
She would return to Hele Village, but not to live with the Qiao family, but to get a divorce.
Qiao Weiguo was unwilling of course, but when he realized that Liu Mei had the idea of divorce again, he could no longer suppress his anger.
"I think you are blinded by greed! If it wasn't me, who would want a mute like you? I don't mind you being mute, but you are acting so arrogant! I think you deserve a beating. If you beat your wife every day like Lao Wang next door, maybe you would be more honest!"
There were people coming and going in front of the hospital, but Qiao Weiguo still pointed at his wife and cursed at her.
Men like him are not rare in this era, but can be found everywhere.
It is common for women to be scolded and beaten.
As long as they are husband and wife, no matter what the man does to the woman, everyone seems to agree that it is reasonable.
Some women were beaten to death, and as long as a little money was given to their family after their death, the murderer would not be punished.
The only punishment is probably losing some money.
And no one thinks this is wrong.
But Liu Mei has already lived her life according to the predetermined destiny. She has only one wish in this life, to see her poor daughter from her previous life live a happy and stable life in her next life.
Since Qiao Weiguo and his sons have been disliked by his daughter, he should cut off all ties with them.
Anyway, there is nothing worth staying with these father and son.
Therefore, facing Qiao Weiguo's scolding and accusations, Liu Mei remained calm.
As a result, Zhao Chujian happened to arrive and saw this scene.
In the end, Qiao Weiguo and the Qiao Shan brothers were taken back to the Public Security Bureau and severely reprimanded on the pretext of assisting in the investigation of the case.
Liu Mei took advantage of this time to return to Hele Village first.
…
It was a day later that Qiao Qingqing received news from Liu Mei again.
"It is said that the two of them had a quarrel with the new captain of the Red Sun Brigade, and my father backed Comrade Liu Mei, so Qiao Weiguo finally signed a divorce certificate with Comrade Liu Mei with a gloomy face."
In the pavilion, two pregnant women and two young female educated youth sat around a table, shelling peanuts and gossiping.
The news of Liu Mei and Qiao Weiguo's divorce was brought by Zhang Miaomiao.
Everyone knows that Qiao Qingqing hates the Qiao family, but among the Qiao family members, Qiao Qingqing hates the Qiao brothers and Qiao Weiguo the most. From Liu Mei's words, it can be seen that Qiao Qingqing has complicated feelings.
Otherwise, he wouldn't care about Liu Mei's life or death.
So Zhang Feng asked his daughter to convey the news to Qiao Qingqing.
Qiao Qingqing responded calmly, as if she was talking about a stranger: "That's good. I'm out of this misery."
"Qingqing, you've done so much for Comrade Liu Mei in secret, don't you want her to know?"
At this time, Yao Xiaoman asked while eating peanuts.
Zhou Lanfang and Zhang Miaomiao also looked at Qiao Qingqing.
In their hearts, Qiao Qingqing is a person who values friendship, kindness and gentleness, so they all think that Qiao Qingqing needs the love of her relatives, which is why she says she wants to sever her family ties with the Qiao family, but actually goes to such great lengths to help Comrade Liu Mei.
Even so, they are willing to lend her a helping hand.
However, Yao Xiaoman also felt that Liu Mei was not very good to Sister Qingqing. She only remembered Sister Qingqing's kindness when she had no other choice and came to pester her for a while, but did not bring any real benefits to Sister Qingqing.
Therefore, Yao Xiaoman suggested not to act rashly, but to first test Sister Qingqing's intentions to avoid doing bad things with good intentions.
Thanks to Yao Xiaoman's careful observation, the situation that Qiao Qingqing did not want to see was avoided.
"Comrade Liu Mei is my biological daughter, and she is also a woman, a persecuted woman. I helped her out of sympathy, or to repay the kindness of giving birth to her, but it was definitely not because I still had any feelings for Comrade Liu Mei."
Qiao Qingqing said indifferently, "But Comrade Liu Mei doesn't seem to think so. If I tell her what I did, I guess Comrade Liu Mei will think that I am longing for family affection and love. If she thinks there is hope that I will accept her, she will come to pester me every day."
Her eyes swept across the four faces slowly.
"You must remember that what people say is terrible! No matter what your fathers did to you, as long as they show the slightest sign of admitting their mistakes and act a little pitiful, the masses will stand on their side and begin to force you, using filial piety and morality to hold you hostage, forcing you to accept their apology, or even to bring them home and provide for them and be filial to them, just like children in ancient times were filial to their fathers."
"This is the most terrible thing, and it's what I don't want to happen."
Qiao Qingqing took a deep breath.
"I can understand that they gave birth to a child but didn't raise it, after all, the child was replaced by someone else. But I can't forgive them for giving up their own daughter for that adopted daughter. Even if the child they raised is perfect, they still owe the child to me by bringing him to the world. Yes, it's the father who owes the child, because it was the father who made the decision, so the father has the responsibility and obligation to raise the child. In my opinion, the reason why the child has the obligation to support the father is to repay the father's kindness in raising him."
"In the relationship between a father and a child, the father's devotion to the child comes first, and then the child's admiration for the father. But the Qiao family skipped the step of their devotion to me and expected me to have deep feelings for them first. They even wronged themselves for their own happiness and asked me to apologize and bow my head without any reason. What kind of logic is this?"
Qiao Qingqing said that she had let it go, but if she had no resentment towards the Qiao family, how could she wish that the Qiao family would be in dire straits?
Both of her parents lacked love, but this time she was luckier than the previous one and met the Lu family.
Even so, it cannot erase the responsibility that Qiao's father and daughter had for her.
It's just that Qiao Qingqing didn't want to get entangled with the Qiao family and simply broke off all ties with them. However, the Qiao family never let her go. Otherwise, why would Qiao Weiguo and his sons come to her doorstep and clamor about Liu Mei's whereabouts?
In this case of Liu Mei, Qiao Qingqing not only repaid Shengqi's kindness, but also tricked the Qiao family.
She felt very happy.
However, this emotion cannot be known to outsiders, otherwise you will be accused of being cruel.
It also doesn't fit with her external image.
The reason why she was willing to reveal some of her feelings in front of the three of them was because she was afraid that they would think that she lacked family affection, so she wanted to do it for her own good and brought Liu Mei here.
Sure enough, after Qiao Qingqing said this, the three of them looked at each other, with a look of lingering fear in their eyes.
Fortunately, I listened to Xiaoman and tried to test the person's thoughts first.
otherwise……
Zhang Miaomiao muttered to herself, it seems that as a pregnant woman, I should just focus on taking care of the baby and not worry about those trivial matters.
Yao Xiaoman quickly changed the subject.
Qiao Qingqing seemed not to notice their expressions and took over the topic readily: "You mean those flowers? Oh, they were planted by Lu Heng. He heard that a good environment is also good for pregnancy, so he asked the logistics department for a few pots of flowers and brought them back to plant."
The new topic revolved around the baby in the belly.
䛈䀴Just then, someone came.
"Yao Zhiqing, there's a phone number for you in the commune!"
It’s Zhou Jianmin.
Yao Xiaoman was stunned and asked subconsciously: "Where is the call from?"
"I don't know. I just asked you to answer the phone quickly. It's urgent. Hurry up!"
Upon hearing this, Yao Xiaoman hurried out.
"Xiao Man, ride a bike!"
Qiao Qingqing reminded from behind.
Yao Xiaoman then remembered that she already had a bicycle to drive.
Pushing the cart, Yao Xiaoman left in a hurry.
"Why are you in such a hurry?"
Zhou Lanfang frowned and had a bad feeling.
Qiao Qingqing was silent.
She thought she knew what was going on.
This phone call was probably from the Yao family informing their daughter that something had happened to her father...
Thinking that Xiaoman might hear bad news, in order to comfort Xiaoman, Qiao Qingqing told Zhou Lanfang and Zhang Miaomiao that they would have lunch at her house.
The two did not refuse.
Zhang Miaomiao also needs to go home and tell her family so that they don’t have to cook extra meals for her.
When Lu Heng came back from the army, he saw his house was bustling with activity.
Qiao Qingqing was directing Zhou Lanfang to pick and wash vegetables.
It's no wonder she wanted to order people around. Zhou Lanfang was too honest. She said that both of them were pregnant and it was embarrassing to let them do all the dirty and tiring work, so she took on all the dirty and tiring work.
Just like Lu Heng, only when it comes to cooking, Qiao Qingqing has to do it herself.
When Qiao Qingqing saw Lu Heng, she looked at him inquiringly. Only after she got Lu Heng's affirmative answer did she feel relieved.
It seems that the team leader's plan is going smoothly.
Last time, Qiao Qingqing talked to Lu Heng about deliberately letting Ning Suxiang go.
Now the Ning family has fallen, the two elders of the Ning family and Ning Rong have all been arrested, except Ning Suxiang, who needed to be hospitalized for miscarriage, and was not arrested at all.
Therefore, if we release him now, Ning Suxiang will definitely ask for help.
No matter who he looks for, it will help Lu Heng and the others break the impasse.
Don't put all your eggs in one basket. People like Ning Rong are used to using tricks. If he keeps delaying time, the big fish behind him will find a chance to escape.
As time is money.
When Ning Suxiang left, the military sent people to monitor her secretly.
Although it was not Lu Heng himself, he was also a powerful figure: Fu Ying!
䀴Just yesterday, good news came from the army, saying that there had been new progress.
Because Lu Heng arrived at the island early that morning.
Before leaving, the couple was discussing whether to go to Ning Suxiang City.
At this moment, Lu Heng gave her an affirmative look, which meant that Ning Suxiang did seek help from the father of her unborn child as they thought.
At the beginning, it was definitely impossible to see each other, especially at this critical juncture when the situation was tense.
But at least it's a line.
Combined with the "mistress line" that Qiao Qingqing provided earlier, I believe this big fish will not be able to escape.
Upon hearing such good news, Qiao Qingqing was also happy for Lu Heng.
This is another big deal!
Because there were other people present, Qiao Qingqing couldn't talk to Lu Heng.
It was inconvenient for Lu Heng to squeeze into the same space with two "foreign girls", so he did not follow them into the kitchen, but went out carrying the bucket.
When Yao Xiaoman came back, Qiao Qingqing saw her red eyes and her suddenly haggard face, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
This day finally came.
The current situation is turbulent and anyone may be brought down. Yao Xiaoman's family is just like the Lu family, who were accidentally affected.
Qiao Qingqing didn't ask her what happened, but hugged her first.
