"Gu Changzheng, what do you mean? You're not paying me my salary, what are you keeping it for? Are you having an affair and want to find a vixen?" Jiang Ruyi had endured it for two months, but she couldn't take it anymore.
Gu Changzheng calmly looked up at Jiang Ruyi without saying a word, then lowered his head again to eat. To be honest, the braised meat shop opened by Jiang Ruyu was really delicious, especially good with rice and alcohol.
Jiang Ruyi's heart skipped a beat when she saw Gu Changzheng's gaze. She suddenly realized that Gu Changzheng really didn't love her anymore, and he really didn't care about her anymore.
"You...you want a divorce?" Jiang Ruyi asked in a trembling voice.
Gu Changzheng chuckled coldly: "Divorce? No, I won't give you the chance to have a few more half-children with my child."
These words were extremely offensive, and Jiang Ruyi looked at Gu Changzheng in disbelief: "What, what do you mean by that?"
"What I mean is, Jiang Ruyi, if you're smart, just live a peaceful life and don't cause trouble. Let's just make do and get through the rest of our lives like this."
Jiang Ruyi gasped for breath, feeling like her lungs were about to explode: "You said before that when our son grew up and became successful, you would let her avenge me, you lied to me?"
Gu Changzheng laughed sarcastically: "I've never really understood why you hate your cousin so much. Now I'm starting to understand. It's pure jealousy. You're not as good as her, whether it's looks, character, or ability. You're inferior to her in every way, so you can't stand seeing her doing well. It's a pity, though. She never even looked at you. Do you know what she's worth now? You're worlds apart from her."
It has to be said that the person who knows you best can hurt you the most. Gu Changzheng's words struck Jiang Ruyi hard, hitting a fact she herself dared not admit. Startled by Gu Changzheng's words, she suddenly stood up, but felt dizzy and her vision went black. She couldn't even stand up and fell backward hard.
Gu Changzheng watched this scene without moving, just quietly looking at her. After a long time, he stood up and calmly carried Jiang Ruyi to the hospital.
After the examination, the doctor was shocked to discover that Jiang Ruyi, who was only in her thirties, had suffered a cerebral infarction.
"Are you a family member of Jiang Ruyi?" The doctor in the white coat looked seriously at Gu Changzheng, who was waiting.
Gu Changzheng nodded: "I am her husband."
"Your spouse suffered a moderate stroke. She must have been too emotionally agitated before. Logically speaking, she shouldn't have such a severe stroke at her age. Does she often experience large mood swings, and does she eat a lot of oily and salty food?"
"Yes, she is emotionally unstable and likes to eat braised pork."
"Well, that explains it. Your wife's condition is quite serious, and she was brought in a bit late. There's no good treatment right now. When she wakes up, she might have a crooked mouth and hemiplegia or paralysis as sequelae. Her family will need to patiently help her with rehabilitation. The patient also needs to avoid too much emotional fluctuation, otherwise, it will be very dangerous if she has another seizure."
Gu Changzheng hadn't expected this situation. He nodded casually. Help Jiang Ruyi recover? That's impossible. If she can't even take care of herself, then let's get a divorce.
As expected, when Jiang Ruyi woke up, her mouth was crooked, half of her body was numb and she couldn't move, and her hands were curled up like chicken claws. She wanted to speak but couldn't, and drool dripped from her chin.
Gu Changzheng looked at her with obvious disgust and ignored her, turning around and leaving. Jiang Ruyi didn't know what was wrong with her; she was anxious to get up but couldn't, and wanted to speak but couldn't.
The next day, when Gu Changzheng came back, he had already divorced Jiang Ruyi. Yes, in this era, with the Gu family's connections, even if Jiang Ruyi disagreed or didn't show up, he still had a way to get the divorce certificate.
Gu Changzheng hired a tricycle to take Jiang Ruyi's luggage and delivered her to the tenement. When Jiang Jianguo saw Jiang Ruyi in this state and looked at Gu Changzheng's impatient face, he knew exactly what else he didn't know.
Gu Changzheng said to Jiang Jianguo, "Jiang Ruyi and I are divorced. I can't take care of her in her current state, so I had to bring her here to you."
Jiang Jianguo looked at him coldly: "Divorced? When did you get divorced? You divorced Jiang Ruyi because she's like this? What were you doing all this time? You dumped her on me because you didn't need her anymore. Do you think I'm someone you can just do whatever you want with?"
Gu Changzheng knew that his father-in-law might not be very capable, but his nephew and niece were not ordinary people. If he did something unfair, and they really wanted to hold it against him, he would not get away with it.
What are your conditions?
"A thousand yuan for nutrition expenses." Jiang Jianguo, for some reason, actually agreed to let Jiang Ruyi come back.
Although a thousand yuan was a lot of money, Gu Changzheng reluctantly paid it off because it would get rid of Jiang Ruyi forever. It was given to him by his father, who had long expected that he wouldn't give up this trouble so easily.
"There's a thousand yuan in this passbook, and the password is six zeros."
Gu Changzheng put down her things and turned to leave. Jiang Jianguo ignored her and looked at Jiang Ruyi: "Do you regret what you did now?"
Jiang Ruyi hadn't recovered from Gu Changzheng's talk of divorce when she heard what her father said. She shook her head excitedly, mumbling something incoherently, and her expression didn't look like one of regret at all.
Wang Shuhua came out of the house at this moment. When she saw Jiang Ruyi, she frowned and looked at Jiang Jianguo: "What is she doing here?"
Jiang Jianguo looked at her and smiled, "Your daughter is back, but you don't seem happy at all?"
Wang Shuhua stared blankly at her husband, somewhat confused by his meaning.
Jiang Jianguo simply said, "She divorced Gu Changzheng, and now she's like this. They sent her back. As her father, I can't take care of her myself. Perfect, you can take care of her. Here, there's a thousand yuan in that savings account, it's for nutrition expenses."
Wang Shuhua pointed angrily at Jiang Jianguo: "I'm almost seventy years old, and you expect me to serve her?"
“She’s your daughter. If you don’t serve her, who will? Didn’t you give her the idea to marry Gu Changzheng using such despicable means? Now this is your retribution.”
After Jiang Jianguo finished speaking, he left the courtyard. Now, Jiang Ruyu and her family no longer live here. Jiang Hui's family has also moved into the housing allocated by their work unit for convenience. Now, only the Sun family and the Yang family are left in the courtyard. They all watched the farce of the Jiang family quietly without saying a word.
This is truly retribution. The cause I created more than a decade ago is now just the consequence of the sins I've committed.
When Jiang Ruyu learned about Jiang Ruyi's situation, it was already half a year later. It was her eldest cousin-in-law, Fang Meili, who told her about it as a joke. When Wang Shuhua was young, she was scheming and calculating, even scheming against her own daughter. For her own selfish reasons, she raised Jiang Ruyi to be so ignorant and irrational.
Now, Jiang Ruyi has difficulty taking care of herself, and despite her advanced age, none of her son, daughter-in-law, or daughter cares about her.
Even Jiang Ruyun said, "Mom, you have to take half the responsibility for Ruyi becoming like this. It's your duty to take care of her."
