Chapter 137 Let My Brother Get a Divorce
Mother Chen's chest was heaving with anger, and Father Chen said to her,
"Oh, please stop talking." She turned to Shen Guannan and smiled, "Her second brother, it's normal for you to be angry. Your aunt is just a talker. She may say unpleasant things, but she has a good heart."
"Look, after Yongjing got married, she cooked a few meals and cleaned up a few things before going home."
"Your aunt is just a little impatient to have a grandson."
Shen Guannan, "A sharp tongue can be very scary and can kill people. Haven't you heard that a kind word can warm you through the winter, but a harsh word can hurt you through the summer?"
He didn't believe in the saying that a person can have a sharp tongue but a soft heart. If he said hurtful things, how could he still have compassion in his heart? It was impossible. It would only make him more disgusted.
Father Chen, "Yes, yes, I will go back and have a good talk with your aunt and ask her to be more careful about her words and actions."
Chen's mother was unhappy. "I said to her second brother, you married a wife and she hasn't given birth to a child in three years. I wonder if you are anxious. Your mother is also anxious. Your mother said that your wife is more cruel than me."
"I'll just say a few more words. She's had enough to eat and drink. Is it necessary to be like this?"
Father Chen covered his face, thinking that what he had just said was in vain.
Father Shen said coldly, "My dear relatives, we can't chat today. You two should go back."
Father Chen, "Not in-laws..." But Mother Chen had already stood up.
When the two of them came out of Shen's house, Chen's father said angrily, "Can't you control your mouth? My daughter has been wronged in our house, isn't it normal for people to say a few words? Why do you keep talking?"
Chen's mother was even more angry. "She was wronged. What wronged her? Did I give her less food or drink? Did I hit her or scold her?"
"I feel wronged. I feel wronged too. She hasn't laid a single egg in three years since she married into our family, while other daughters-in-law have given birth to a second child."
Father Chen said, "What should I do? Your son likes her, and he said he doesn't want to live without his wife, and he wants to jump into the river!"
Mother Chen, "I don't know. Let's talk about it later. I'm hungry when I go home. I've been busy all morning."
Father Chen, "If Yongjing doesn't want to go back, we have to come back in two days."
Mother Chen said nothing, swinging her arms and walking forward. When they returned home, their daughter Chen Hongxia said, "Mom and Dad, you are back."
Chen's mother hummed, and Chen Hongxia asked, "How is it going? What does the woman's family say? Are you really planning to divorce?"
Father Chen, "What do you mean by that woman? She is your sister-in-law."
Chen Hongxia, "I don't have a sister-in-law like her. She has been married to my brother for three years and we haven't had a child. What kind of sister-in-law is she?"
Chen Hongxia hated Shen Yongjing and felt annoyed whenever she saw her, because ever since her brother married this woman, he no longer cared about her as his sister.
In the past, her brother loved her the most and bought everything for her. Now, he gives all his salary to his wife, and buys delicious food and drinks for her first, and doesn't care about her at all.
Mother Chen: "I don't know. When we went to tell them, they started to scold us. They said their daughter was wronged in our house. She was wronged terribly."
"He scolded me and your father. We spoke to them in a nice way, but they were wrong. The whole family came out to criticize us."
"Their daughter is a golden nugget, and she cannot be said a word."
Chen Hongxia got angry after hearing this, "Mom and Dad, why do you have to go through this injustice? Just let my brother get a divorce. She can't have children anyway. There are so many women in the world. Find another sister-in-law for my brother."
Mother Chen said, "Is it me who doesn't want to? Your brother can't leave her. He said that if his wife divorces him, he will jump into the river and die."
"Did my brother really say that?" Chen Hongxia was shocked.
Mother Chen: "Yeah."
Chen Hongxia gritted her teeth and said, "What a vixen."
She has completely obsessed with her brother.
Father Chen said, "Come on, why are you getting a divorce? Divorce means you are getting a second marriage. There is no good girl who would marry a soldier."
Chen Hongxia, "Even if she is not a good girl, she can still give birth to a child, unlike her."
It's just right that her brother is marrying a woman he doesn't like.
Father Chen said, "Shut up. She's just a little girl, talking like a child every day. What does this have to do with you?"
Chen Hongxia snorted and turned back to the house.
The decoration of Chen Lijun and Shen Yongjing's new house is almost done.
At noon, Chen Lijun returned to the Chen family. "Lijun, you're off work. Mom has fried meat." Chen's mother smiled.
Something is not right. Something is not right.
Chen Lijun came home directly after get off work and didn't go back to Shen's house, so I don't know what happened in the morning, but seeing his mother's state...
If things had been successful, his mother wouldn't be in this state.
He asked, "Mom and Dad, did you go to see Yong Jing today?"
Mother Chen said, "Oh, I did look for it, but your wife said she was busy, and we didn't say a word."
Chen Lijun, "And then?"
Mother Chen, "Then..." Father Chen took over, he sighed, "Then we went to your parents-in-law's house, your parents-in-law were very angry, and your mother was also speechless, always scolding them, so we came out."
Chen Hongxia said, "Brother, there are so many women in the world, why are you clinging to a hen that doesn't lay eggs? Just get a divorce and marry someone better."
"My parents were scolded by her parents today..."
Before Chen Hongxia could finish her words, she was slapped by Chen Lijun. "Who taught you to talk like that?"
Chen Hongxia covered her face in shock, "Brother, you hit me"
Chen Lijun, "What's wrong with me hitting you? If you say that about your sister-in-law, I will be punished lightly."
How could a fifteen-year-old child say such a thing? He looked at Chen's mother, and was sure that his mother must have been nagging him about these things every day, so his sister learned them.
Mother Chen was already dissatisfied with her daughter-in-law Shen Yongjing, and now her son and daughter were quarreling because of her, which made her even angrier.
She protected Chen Hongxia, "Chen Lijun, Hongxia is your sister. You actually hit her just because of a sentence."
Chen Hongxia cried, Chen Lijun said, "Mom, this is what you said about my wife when I was away, no wonder she doesn't want to come back."
Chen Lijun went back to the house to pack his things.
Mother Chen was still stubborn, "Why? You haven't had a baby in three years. What's wrong with me, as a mother-in-law, saying a few words?"
Chen's father followed Chen Lijun to the room and saw his son packing things. He was shocked and asked, "Lijun, what are you doing?"
Chen Lijun: "Move out."
Father Chen, "Why do you want to move out?"
Chen Lijun, "For my future happiness, Dad and I live at home. Sooner or later, Mom and Hongxia will get involved and divorce us."
Father Chen said, "Your mother has a sharp tongue but a soft heart. Your sister is still young and doesn't know much."
Chen Lijun packed his things. "Fifteen is not young anymore. When I was her age, I worked in a factory to earn money."
"No one in my family respects my wife. You all say bad things about her, in front of others and behind their backs. We should just move out."
"My wife may not be able to have children because she is mad at you guys every day."
Father Chen sighed, "No one is talking about her. I, your father, didn't say anything."
