How could Zhou Mingli possibly gain such a huge advantage?
After arguing with Brother Yu for a long time, Zhou Mingli slammed his fist on the table and said that he only wanted two eels and some shrimp, and that the rest could be taken away by the Yu family.
If Brother Yu doesn't agree to this, then he won't dare to go fishing with them anymore.
Brother Yu was helpless, but he agreed to Zhou Mingli's method of division.
So Zhou Mingli took two fish, two eels, and half a river shrimp home.
The newly replaced door was very sturdy and could be locked from both the inside and outside. Zhou Mingli didn't rush in; instead, he processed the fish and eels outside.
Once this kind of thing dies, it can't be kept for long; it easily develops an odor and spoils.
Zhou Mingli planned to raise the eels to expel the sand, and then kill the fish, salt them, and dry them to make salted fish.
The door opened, and Jiang Ci, who should have been sleeping, came out of the room, moved a stool and sat down to watch Zhou Mingli clean the fish.
It wasn't that she didn't want to help; Jiang Ci had never done this kind of work before, and Zhou Mingli was very good at it. If she stood by, she would probably only make things worse.
"Why aren't you asleep?" Zhou Mingli glanced at her, walked to the side, and handed her a fan.
Jiang Ci fanned him, saying, "I slept too much this afternoon, I'm not sleepy."
Since it was just the two of them, Zhou Mingli wasn't too careful when he spoke, and his voice sounded gentler in the night, "This is for you to fan yourself, there are a lot of mosquitoes in the yard."
Jiang Ci: "..."
She withdrew her hand, snorted, and fanned herself.
Neither of them spoke for a moment. After a long while, Jiang Ci slowly asked, "Did Boss Zhou cause trouble today because of that 150 yuan?"
"Ninety percent of the reason." Zhou Mingli thought of this and wasn't very happy. A shadow fell over his eyes.
“This person is really interesting.” Jiang Ci slowly fanned herself with her fan and said, “He is afraid of death, loves money, and is mostly full of tricks to take advantage of others.”
Zhou Mingli turned to look at her and laughed, "You must be furious today, right?"
Jiang Ci snorted coldly, already having dozens of ways to kill Boss Zhou in her mind.
To deal with this kind of greedy person who can't swallow an elephant, as long as you don't kill him, he will revert to his old ways and keep buzzing around your ear like a fly.
“My parents taught me a principle before,” Jiang Ci said calmly, “When dealing with people of high moral character and integrity, a favor is enough for them to remember for a lifetime.”
"To deal with a greedy person, you only need to use his greed, and he will fall into the quagmire of desire and be unable to climb out."
Zhou Mingli nodded. "Mom and Dad are right."
Before he could finish speaking, Jiang Ci kicked him.
Jiang Ci warned him, "Those are my parents."
They're divorced; those were her parents.
Zhou Mingli said slowly, "They said before that even if we divorce, I will still be their son."
Jiang Ci said calmly, "That's because they didn't see your true colors."
Zhou Mingli stopped what he was doing and turned to look at her.
In the deep darkness of the night, his gaze was filled with aggression and dominance, unlike his previous silent and emotionally stable demeanor.
"True face, what do you see in me?"
Jiang Ci showed no fear in the face of his threats, remaining calm and retorting, "You don't think you can fool everyone, do you?"
Zhou Mingli, "You only divorced me after you saw my true colors?"
Jiang Ci's face turned cold. "Zhou Mingli, do you really want to argue with me about this now?"
Zhou Mingli shook his hand, grabbed her arm, and with a forceful pull, Jiang Ci veered towards him.
Jiang Ci frowned and struggled, but couldn't break free. "What are you doing? Let go!"
A torrent of emotions welled up in his eyes, suppressed yet restrained. "Jiang Ci, how many times have I told you? I don't want a divorce!"
If it weren't for their repeated arguments, which inevitably brought up the topic of divorce whenever they met, and the sharp, hurtful blows that drove him to the brink of madness, Zhou Mingli would never have agreed to divorce her.
He had finally, so incredibly, reached that point, finally been able to be with her…
divorce?
How could he possibly agree to that!
"No matter how many times you say it, I will only give the same answer!" Jiang Ci's tone was cold and firm, determined not to change her stance.
Zhou Mingli was almost driven mad by Jiang Ci. He gritted his teeth and laughed in anger.
"Let go! Who wants to stay here and feed the mosquitoes with you!" Jiang Ci struggled again.
Zhou Mingli said, word by word, "I washed your hair last night, and I've already told you that you have to help me take a bath."
As he spoke, he raised his hand and tugged at his clothes.
"Zhou Mingli! Have you no shame!"
Have shame?
His wife left him, what face does he still have?
Zhou Mingli wouldn't let Jiang Ci leave and insisted that she help him take a bath.
Zhou Mingli had just gone into the pond today, and his legs, arms, neck, and several other parts of his body were still covered in mud.
Jiang Ci was furious, but the bandage on his chest was real.
"Zhou Mingli! You only got away with this once! Just wait and see if I'll let you have your way again!"
"Turn around! I get annoyed just looking at your face!"
Let me give you a bath!
Scrub, scrub, scrub! Scrub until it hurts!
“Even if we’re not happy about it, we’re still in the same boat now.” Zhou Mingli felt her strength and said, “We’ll remain bound together for a long time.”
"As husband and wife."
Divorce is no longer easy these days, especially for women without jobs or family support; they can be devoured by society until nothing is left.
