"Haruyuki! We know you're still young. Now that the children are grown up and the family is divided, it'll be easier for you to be alone in the future. I don't think it's a big deal if you want to live your own life."
"But during festivals, don't forget to pay your respects to Guo Sheng."
Zhong Maoqiao also interjected: "We're not saying we have to lock you up forever. Even Guosheng does have a hard life."
"He was disliked by his parents since he was a child, and he died after only living for thirty years..."
"That is, I hope his blood relatives can still remember him..."
"There's no hope for his biological mother and brothers. Only his children and you can still have some hope."
Zhang Chunxue just smiled faintly: "Okay, Uncle Maolin, Uncle Maoqiao, I will."
The two nodded to Song Xingzhi again before leaving.
After seeing off the elders of the Zhong family, the people watching at the door gradually dispersed.
But they were talking about the wonderful drama of the division today with great relish.
Zhang Chunxue ignored her three sons who looked very lost, and looked at Song Xingzhi with a little shyness.
"Xingzhi, why are you here?"
Song Xingzhi smiled gently, "Didn't Brother Aiguo's eldest son come to the brigade headquarters to look for me? So I came here with Zhong Chengren."
Zhang Chunxue immediately looked at Zhong Aiguo: "Village Chief Zhong, what do you mean by this? Are you worried that I, Zhang Chunxue, will take advantage of someone from your Zhong family?"
Zhong Aiguo's face suddenly darkened: "How can you say such a thing? You really don't know how to appreciate kindness!"
He angrily waved his hand and walked out of the yard, leaving Zhang Chunxue and Song Xingzhi standing in the yard.
Zhong Xiaoxiao held Zhong Yuanyuan in one hand and Zhong Hongqing in the other, hiding in the corner of the kitchen. Her eyes were brighter than the light bulbs in the city.
Song Xingzhi was actually a little surprised.
Why are we suddenly splitting up?
His Adam's apple rolled.
It can't be that she is really doing this because she is planning to remarry, right?
After all, Zhang Chunxue had told him before that the prerequisite for remarriage was that he had to wait until she had resolved the issue of her sons.
Besides, is the current situation solved or not?
Zhang Chunxue lowered her head a bit embarrassedly. "Actually, it's mainly because the second son wants to divorce Mingli, and I figured the eldest son wouldn't want to divorce Li Hongjuan either... This family is about to fall apart, and I have to see people I don't want to see. So, let's just split up. That way, I won't have to be annoyed by them all day long."
"Is there anything I can do to help?" Song Xingzhi said softly, "You said you wanted to open a door in the backyard, right? Do you want me to help you find someone?"
Zhang Chunxue quickly said, "I can do it myself!"
Song Xingzhi's tone was filled with gentle concern: "Sister Chunxue, actually, you can rely on me more often."
"I'm willing to let you rely on me," his eyes were filled with tenderness, "or rather, I really hope to be relied upon by you."
Zhang Chunxue's face flushed red. "This... cough! I just think it's a bit too much to bother you with such a small matter..."
"Sister Chunxue, your problems are no small matter to me," Song Xingzhi said in an increasingly serious tone. "I also hope that Sister Chunxue can 'trouble' me more, instead of always acting like there's something between us like before..."
Zhang Chunxue's fingers curled up slightly.
Zhong Xiaoxiao was sharp-eyed. Seeing her three brothers regain their spirits and walk towards her, she immediately coughed violently a few times.
What surprised her was that neither Song Xingzhi nor Zhang Chunxue seemed to be avoiding anything, but simply changed the subject naturally.
"Then I'll leave it to Xingzhi to open the door to the backyard."
Song Xingzhi also nodded with a smile: "Okay, I'll find a way to get some blue bricks, and then help you build the back wall a little higher, so it will be safer."
Zhong Chengfa came over immediately after hearing this, his face full of greed. "Secretary Song, why don't you help me out and get some more bricks so I can build a stove!"
Before Song Xingzhi could say anything, Zhang Chunxue spoke coldly, "Why did you ask for bricks to build the kitchen? Did they owe you?"
Zhong Chengfa suddenly felt a little annoyed: "Isn't this...isn't this Secretary Song sending bricks to you, Mom?"
"Oh? What does that have to do with you?" Zhang Chunxue asked directly, "We've already separated."
Zhong Chengfa was about to say that he was still your son even though they were splitting up, but Zhang Chunxue spoke slowly, "So don't even think about taking advantage of me anymore!"
Zhong Chengfa's face flushed immediately: "Mom!"
Zhang Chunxue was a little impatient: "Why, Zhong Chengfa, don't you want to divorce your wife? Your wife is not living well in her parents' home now, right?"
"Shouldn't you run and fetch your wife back as soon as possible?"
Zhong Chengfa's heart suddenly trembled: "Yes, yes, yes! I have to go pick up my wife!"
He asked Zhong Xiaoxiao to keep an eye on Zhong Hongqing and then ran away.
Zhang Chunxue turned his gaze to Zhong Chengyi again.
Zhong Chengyi immediately laughed awkwardly: "Mom, I don't know how to cook, so I don't need to build a stove..."
Zhong Chengren on the side even muttered quietly: "I don't even have a house, let alone a place..."
Zhang Chunxue naturally invited Song Xingzhi to have lunch at her home.
Song Xingzhi smiled and refused: "No, I still have to go back to the brigade headquarters to work..."
"Then come for dinner tonight?" Zhang Chunxue said casually.
Song Xingzhi immediately curved his eyebrows and said, "Okay."
Zhong Chengren and Zhong Chengyi looked at each other, and both had some thoughts in their hearts.
When Zhong Chengren went to Zhong Chengyi's room to get his things, he couldn't help but lower his voice: "Third brother, do you think Mom suddenly split up the family just to remarry Song Xingzhi after the split?"
Zhong Chengyi also nodded repeatedly: "I think so too... But second brother, you won't disagree, right?"
Zhong Chengren said unhappily, "What's the use of my disagreement? Do you think Mom will listen to us?"
Zhong Chengyi lowered his voice even more: "Didn't Mom mention remarriage a few years ago? At that time, it was because we disagreed that Mom didn't remarry..."
"If Mom had remarried at that time, there would be no place for Song Xingzhi!"
"You said that was a few years ago! Zhong Hongqing is three years old now!" Zhong Chengren rolled his eyes, "You're also old enough to get married. Even Zhong Xiaoxiao almost mentioned her in-laws before..."
"Mom doesn't care about our feelings anymore! I think she just wants to kick us out as soon as possible!"
