Chapter 153 Leave If You Want
——Isn’t this girl the top student in Class 1, Grade 7?
——I remember her name, it was Ye Xiaomei. She was replaced by someone else in Maoming when school just started.
——Yes, I remember that she got the first place in the city when she took the exam.
——What’s going on? Why do we need meal tickets or not?
"You must go home with me today." Wang Lan held Ye Xiaomei tightly.
The sounds of discussion all around filled Ye Xiaomei's ears. She suddenly shook off Wang Lan's arm:
"Don't you know what you did?"
"If you weren't so ignorant, how could Qihong be detained?" Wang Lan's eyes turned red with anger.
She has lived her life to this age, and has been upright and vigorous all her life. Not to mention anything else, when she worked in the brigade, she was very capable and never let anyone poke her in the slightest. Who would have thought that when she was old, her own daughter was detained, how would she have the face to see her son-in-law in the future?
Ye Xiaomei frowned. The more she looked at Wang Lan's anxious and sad face, the more unfamiliar she felt. She had been so good to her in the past. It even made Ye Xiaomei feel like she was dreaming that she had accidentally married into such a good family, and that the family did not discriminate against girls.
But she didn't expect that mothers-in-law in the world are generally evil, and all the credit goes to their daughters-in-law for giving birth to children. She thought that if she beat the child, her status in the Ma family would be gone in an instant.
"Detained?" Ye Xiaomei asked calmly, keeping calm.
Wang Lan jumped up and said, "Don't pretend you don't know anything. Come with me to the police station and I'll see what excuses you can come up with."
As she spoke, Wang Lan gathered all her strength and pulled Ye Xiaomei away.
Indeed, Ye Xiaomei had already experienced Wang Lan's strength. Even Ma Qijun's strength was weak, so the more she struggled, the more painful her wrist became. She simply followed Wang Lan into the taxi.
No one spoke along the way, but Ye Xiaomei could feel the aura emanating from Wang Lan.
When they arrived at the police station, a police officer took Ye Xiaomei and Wang Lan into the interrogation room. However, because the detention room was a branch of the police station, there was no special visiting room available for use.
The food that Wang Lan brought was placed on the rectangular table made of steel billets, including some fruits and a portion of stewed pork ribs. Ma Qihong looked haggard and had no appetite at all.
Ye Xiaomei sat quietly opposite Ma Qihong, and Wang Lan was only two people away from Ye Xiaomei.
The person sitting above was a police officer: "If you have anything to say, please speak up."
This was Wang Lan’s first time coming to the police station in the city. No, it was her second time. She had been here once last night.
But I'm not used to it yet, and I was a little caught off guard by this reminder, so I hurriedly said:
"Qihong, Xiaomei is a naive kid. She has caused you so much trouble. Mom knows it all."
Ye Xiaomei was stunned. Who was she telling this to? Wasn't it enough that he had done so many heartbreaking things to stop her dream of going to school?
Ma Qihong took a deep breath and shook her head without saying anything. Ye Xiaomei couldn't tell whether she hated herself or others.
"Why don't you say something? Are you trying to drive your mother crazy?" Wang Lan was anxious, tears as big as beans fell down her cheeks: "Wuwu, why don't you say something? It's obviously your sister-in-law who is disobedient, why do you have to bear the brunt of it? This really can't be done..."
At this point, Wang Lan suddenly stopped crying, as if she had made a decisive decision, and said word by word:
"At worst, I don't want this daughter-in-law anymore. I will definitely let Qijun divorce her."
She? Wasn't she sitting next to him? Ye Xiaomei shuddered. She didn't know she would fall in love with Ma Qijun so much at first. But even in her dreams, she had never thought of leaving this man.
Ma Qihong was also stunned: "Mom, don't be confused."
"I'm not confused at all. She's just like that jerk Ye Xiaolin. She saw that Qijun had a future and used his subsidy to send her to school. She didn't care about our Ma family at all."
After Wang Lan said this, Ye Xiaomei felt like she was dreaming. Where had her former sensible mother-in-law gone?
She was standing by me when I was bullied by my family. What happened? She just wanted to go to school. How could it be like this?
Ye Xiaomei realized that by marrying a soldier who was away from home all year round, she would not only face the love and happy marriage she longed for, but also a big family.
"Mom, I didn't spend Qijun's money." Ye Xiaomei clenched her hands tightly. She was definitely not as bad as her mother-in-law said.
Wang Lan was stunned for a moment, then squinted her eyes and said sarcastically:
"Qijun has taken away his savings book since he got married. You said you didn't spend it? Who would believe you?"
Ye Xiaomei felt a chill down her spine. "The passbook is in the bottom drawer of the closet in the new house. Here is the key. I didn't touch a penny."
Did she find out that Wang Lan had lost her memory or something? You have to know that when she married Qijun, he couldn't get out of bed or work. After his leg was healed, he started to be demobilized. The allowance was only in the last two or three months, and she was not willing to spend a penny.
Ye Xiaomei squeezed her eyes and trembled her gaze, and the colorful light in her heart was trembling.
Wang Lan glanced at the lonely key on the corner of the table and asked, "Does this mean you agree to divorce Qijun?"
"..." What's going on here? If Ye Xiaomei didn't feel the atmosphere was too awkward, she would have dragged her mother-in-law to have her brain checked.
"Mom, what do you mean?" Ye Xiaomei just wanted to prove that she could be self-reliant, but she never thought about leaving Qijun. He was one of the best men in the world. Ye Xiaomei knew that she might not be able to find a good man like Qijun even if she searched with a lantern, but he was no longer here.
Wang Lan wiped her tears carelessly: "Your elder sister told me a long time ago that you had a young man with you when you went to the city last time. In addition, after you became pregnant, you did not regard my Ma family as your own family. I suspect that your child may not be from the Ma family."
"..." Ye Xiaomei suddenly felt like something was stuck in her throat. She stood up involuntarily, her face pale.
"Mom, what did you say?"
Ma Qihong, who was standing by, also twitched her eyebrows: "Mom, you can't say such nonsense."
"You are about to be fired because of her, why don't you speak for her?" Wang Lan scolded Ma Qihong so much that she was depressed.
Ma Qihong was picking her fingers hard under the table. She knew that Xiao Mei was not to blame at all. It was because she listened too much to her mother that she did this.
Ye Xiaomei felt that she had never suffered such humiliation in her life, and the other party's mind was so fickle.
Ye Xiaomei looked at her mother-in-law with forbearance, her mind full of details from the time she met Brother Ma, got married to the time they fell in love. He was really the best man in the world, but how could marriage be a matter between two people when it involved two families?
Wang Lan's leaps in thinking today caught Ye Xiaomei off guard. It seemed that she had been thinking about it for a long time.
"If you want to divorce, then divorce." Ye Xiaomei said calmly, "But my marriage to Ma Qijun needs the approval of the army. Please inform Ma Qijun and ask him to bring back a divorce approval letter from the army."
Ma Qihong's pupils shrank, and he opened his mouth before speaking: "Xiao Mei, don't be impulsive."
