He Feng and Xie Erjie were high school classmates. They fell in love while studying and got married after graduation.
He's mother originally did not agree with them being together. She looked down on the Xie family's conditions and wanted her son to marry a daughter from a dual-income family like her own, but she couldn't persuade He Feng.
Although He Feng also looked down on the Xie family, he liked Xie's second sister.
Fortunately, after marriage, Second Sister Xie was capable and family-oriented, and He's mother was very satisfied with her. The only thing she was not satisfied with was her family.
Normally, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law get along well with each other, but whenever the Xie family is mentioned, quarrels are inevitable.
He Feng thought of the grand occasion he saw today: "You're overthinking it. Her family is very rich now, they wouldn't look down on what we have!"
"Isn't it just that her brother from her mother's family made some money as a self-employed person?" He's mother curled her lips when she heard this: "She is so capable! It seems that this is the reason why she dared to ask for a divorce today!"
"Her family is not just a simple self-employed family," He Feng told his parents what he saw and heard today.
Upon learning that the Xie family had bought three shops in the city and was planning to build a factory, He's father and mother exclaimed: "..." They look down on self-employed individuals, but there are differences between self-employed individuals.
So she was no longer angry that Second Sister Xie went to the Xie family to attend the opening ceremony today. Instead, she was angry that Second Sister Xie, as a daughter-in-law, could speak to her like that...
"...My mother-in-law said today that if Wenqi is willing to divorce, she supports Wenqi's divorce!" He Feng said again.
"..." Mother He's expression changed drastically: "Did she tell you in person?"
Although she looked down on Second Sister Xie at the beginning, she was satisfied with Second Sister Xie in all aspects except the Xie family after she married into the family for so many years. She was still very satisfied with this daughter-in-law and had never thought about their divorce!
What's more, the Xie family is no longer a burden, and her only dissatisfaction is gone. How can she get divorced?
They only encourage reconciliation instead of separation. What a shame her in-laws are. Why do they still hope that their daughter will get divorced?
Could it be that he said this on purpose, trying to take advantage of the opportunity to control the He family?
He Feng: "No, I just said I overheard it!"
He's mother: "..." If they said it to her face, she could say that the Xie family was bluffing, but from what she heard behind their backs... it seems that the Xie family really thinks so!
He Feng thought so too.
It is true that he was a little self-righteous before, but he really liked Second Sister Xie, otherwise he would not have insisted on marrying Second Sister Xie despite his parents' opposition.
He had never thought about divorcing Second Sister Xie, nor had he ever thought that the Xie family or Second Sister Xie would file for divorce.
After all, the number of people who get divorced at this time is still very small, and most people believe that once you get married, you should spend your whole life together.
So when he heard what Xie's mother said today, that if Second Sister Xie was willing to divorce, she would support her, he was dumbfounded.
Especially when he saw that Second Sister Xie also had this tendency, he became even more stupid.
So much so that later on, he was very cautious in trying to please Second Sister Xie, for fear that she would really ask for a divorce from him.
