Granny Zhu was so angry that her eyes turned red from being despised and scorned by so many people.
She took out her bag and took out a thousand yuan from it.
It was thrown directly at Sheng Jinjin's face.
"Take this, consider it my severance pay."
Sheng Jinjin picked it up and scoffed, "A thousand yuan to appease a beggar?"
"I've been married to your son for five years, and he's spent five thousand yuan of my money!"
"Also, you have to give me a total of 50,000 yuan for the cost of childbirth and my dowry!"
She felt that 50,000 yuan was not enough.
But if I ask for too much, I'm afraid Granny Zhu won't give it to me.
Now that they're divorced, she wants to take advantage of the crowd to get money from Granny Zhu.
Otherwise, you won't have any money after you leave.
Granny Zhu was furious, and since everyone at the factory had finished get off work, the workers came to watch the commotion.
If we don't pay them this money today, who knows how the workers will view them in the future.
You'd think they were bankrupt or a bunch of scammers if you didn't know better.
Especially since we'll need to find a partner for our son in the future, if we really don't give him a penny, it will damage his reputation, so we'll have no choice but to reluctantly give him the money.
And it has to be given in front of everyone.
She called to her eldest daughter-in-law, "Eldest daughter-in-law, go to the bank and withdraw 50,000 yuan."
Although Zhu's eldest daughter-in-law was unwilling, she still went.
The nearby bank was owned by someone I knew, and I was able to withdraw the money quickly.
In front of everyone, Granny Zhu threw the money in front of Sheng Jinjin.
"You say my family didn't give you a bride price? That's because your family isn't good enough."
“My family has so many wives, all of whom come from families in town, and each of them has a respectable family background.”
“Unlike you, you come from the countryside, your parents are good-for-nothings, and you’re not particularly good-looking either. It’s a miracle you were able to marry into this family.”
"Furthermore, what's wrong with giving my son some food and drink after you marry him? Isn't the point of marriage to earn money and use it together?"
“You’re so petty about such a small amount of money. My daughters-in-law are not as narrow-minded as you.”
She tried to smear Sheng Jinjin.
They despised her for being utterly worthless.
"If it weren't for your ability to make money, what other merits would you have that would make you suitable to marry into the Zhu family?"
"I'm even generous enough to let your parents live in our house without charging them rent."
"Go out and ask around. If any mother-in-law would give her father-in-law and mother-in-law a room to stay in for free, it would be my Zhu family."
"You're making my family sound like a terrible place just because you're afraid my son will find someone else."
“I’ve already withdrawn the money for you. Fifty thousand yuan isn’t a small amount. What mother-in-law is so generous as to give so much money to a divorced daughter-in-law? How dare you say I’m stingy?”
When people saw the money, their thinking changed.
"It seems the Zhu family isn't short of money. They can withdraw 50,000 yuan so easily, which shows they're quite wealthy."
"Exactly. I see her factory is doing quite well. I guess it's just rumors because of a conflict between her and her mother-in-law."
Seeing the change in tone, Sheng Jinjin sneered, "It's true that your son is good-for-nothing and spends women's money."
"I won't argue with you today. I'll take the money, because it's rightfully mine."
“You give money to your wives every year, but you don’t give me a penny. This is to make up for it.”
"From now on, men and women will have nothing to do with each other's marriages. Don't try to smear me, and I won't speak ill of your family."
"that's all."
She picked up 50,000 yuan and quickly left with Zhang Dahua.
As for the child, Sheng Jinjin did not want it.
She urgently needs to find a respectable man to marry, but it's difficult to find a wealthy man with a child, so she has no choice but to leave the child with the Zhu family.
Anyway, the Zhu family is rich, and the children have food and drink at the Zhu family's place, so they don't have to worry about starving to death.
Following her would only drag us both down.
Zhang Dahua thought so too.
"Since you can have children, you can have a few more later, so you won't have trouble finding a partner when you're with your kids."
Sheng Jinjin nodded, took the five yuan, and hurriedly went to deposit it, afraid that a thief would take it.
Then he went back to the factory to continue working.
The factory had heard about her situation and kept asking her what she was going to do next.
After all, life isn't easy for divorced women.
Sheng Jinjin didn't want to hear these mocking words; she just wanted to find a rich man to marry as soon as possible.
Zhang Dahua was most enthusiastic about finding her a good man.
This time, I specifically consulted many matchmakers.
They inflated their own worth, saying that their eldest daughter owned twelve houses and that she would receive 50,000 yuan in a divorce settlement.
First, improve your own qualities, and the matchmaker will naturally not choose someone too bad.
However, Sheng Jinjin was cautious.
"Mom, those men who come to me for blind dates are only after my money. I can't give them any more money."
She had already learned her lesson from spending so much money on Zhu Laoshi before.
These days, money is only worth spending on yourself.
Zhang Dahua also thought, "Why don't we use this money to buy a house?"
She didn't want to go back to the village.
Although she doesn't mind Sheng Jinjin's divorce, divorce is ultimately not a pleasant thing to hear.
She'd be nagging her relatives if she went back, but she didn't like hearing it, so she figured she might as well buy a house in the city.
You can buy a small apartment for 50,000 yuan.
They live in a small county town, and housing prices here are not as high as in big cities.
Buy it now, you can still afford it.
Sheng Jinjin also felt that owning a house provided security.
Otherwise, the money will be spent by the man, and she will end up with nothing.
The mother and daughter made up their minds and went to look at houses.
Finally, I looked at a second-hand apartment with walk-up doors, 70 square meters.
There are two bedrooms, a balcony, and a living room, all of which are already furnished.
Although the price is a bit high, the seller is willing to let them pay back the difference gradually.
Sheng Jinjin and Zhang Dahua were very satisfied and immediately made the decision.
Sheng Dahu listened to them; he only took care of working and earning money.
With a house, Sheng Jinjin felt more confident and went back to work at the factory, asking acquaintances there to introduce her to good men.
To call someone a good man really just means wanting a good family and a good job.
Many people introduced her to potential partners, but they were either not good-looking or came from poor families.
Some of them remarried and had three children.
Although she had a house, it was too cramped for three children to live in one place, so she simply didn't want it.
She doesn't want men who don't have children, have average jobs, and live with their parents.
She's had enough of living crammed together with her in-laws.
Zhang Dahua also felt that none of these were necessary.
He suggested, "How about we go to a big city to look?"
Men from big cities are always better than those from villages, right?
Sheng Jinjin wondered, "What about my job?"
It would be such a waste to resign after finally becoming the workshop director.
Once she leaves the company, her position will be immediately filled by someone else, and she won't be able to come back to this position.
Zhang Dahua was also worried about this.
But you can't catch a wolf without risking your cub.
“You can’t stay in this small place forever; you have to go out and explore.”
"Look at that brat Sheng Yueqing, she only became rich after she left, didn't she?"
"Mom thinks you're just as capable as Sheng Yueqing, and you might even be able to become a wealthy wife outside."
Sheng Jinjin wasn't very confident.
After all, she had been divorced once, and she had never traveled far from home, so she was afraid that she would not be able to establish herself outside.
Zhang Dahua is optimistic: "Anyway, we have a house here. If we can't make it in the big city, we'll just come back."
If all else fails, you can always go back to your hometown.
