"But Lili is also wrong. She finally came back, but instead of coming to see the child, she even said she wanted a divorce. Look at what she said. Who would get a divorce nowadays?"
"Why haven't any people divorced yet? Don't you know that people are getting divorced because you are ignorant? If you are ignorant, just shut up. Do you really think this is the Qing Dynasty and you are a landlord? Your wife is sold to your family and you should accept her fate of being beaten and scolded and not fight back? The Qing Dynasty is gone, so stop daydreaming. You have a son who is a soldier, why are you still so stubborn?"
Tian Tian was even less afraid when she was surrounded by the crowd. She kept talking a lot, which made the old man of the Li family very angry. Listening to what Tian Tian said, he was afraid and angry, and his face turned red with anger.
Tian Tian didn't care what Old Man Li felt. She was just angry and hated this Old Man Li! He usually didn't say a word and pretended to be a good guy. He let his wife do all the things that offended people, and he sat back and enjoyed the benefits and reputation. Compared with Aunt Li who was bad in public, Tian Tian hated Old Man Li who was behind others more.
"Look at this, look at this!" Seeing her husband being humiliated, Old Lady Li jumped out again, pointing at Tian Tian and shouting, "Look at this girl from the Tian family. She has no grudge against us, but she is so sharp-tongued and bullies our elders. If I offend her one day, what will happen? You might have to collect my body!"
"Old lady, you think too highly of me. I can't learn to act like a shrew like you. This is the first time I've seen an elder pulling a younger person's hair and scratching him. You don't act like an elder at all. Now you're trying to teach me a lesson. If you hadn't beaten my sister first, do you think I would care about you?"
"Tiantian! Stop talking!" Tian Lisong couldn't stand it anymore and scolded.
Tian Lili, who had been crying in Tian Tian's arms for a long time, stood up and wiped the tears from her face. "Mother-in-law, don't say anything about my sister. She said all this today because she feels sorry for me as her elder sister. It's also because I'm too soft-hearted. I've been bullied by you all these years and can't even raise my head."
"I have a bad fate. I married a cowardly man and have a vicious father-in-law and mother-in-law who can't stand their daughter-in-law doing well. I risked my life to give birth to you, but in my heart I support your son. I am a soft-hearted person. I don't have as many tricks to torture people as you do. I am not like you who treat me like a transparent person all day long and don't say a word to me at home. I can only hide in my parents' home. Fortunately, my parents love me and I live a comfortable life in my parents' home. They can let me live a few more years and not be angered to death by you early."
"Later, my husband finally returned from military service. I thought he would love me as his wife and the mother of his child, but he found another woman without telling me. My child is only one year younger than me. I don't want to argue with you anymore. I just want to divorce this man. I want to have nothing to do with them anymore."
The crowd around was in an uproar. Tian Tian felt even more sorry for Tian Lili after hearing what she heard. The child was one year younger than Tian Lili's child. Li Jianjun must have had an affair with that woman when Tian Lili was suffering from heavy bleeding during childbirth and was lying on the kang half-dead.
"Not only did he cheat on her, but he also used cold violence. This kind of man must die!" Tian Tian cursed in a low voice.
"I came here today to divorce Li Jianjun, but they didn't agree and beat me up instead. Then they turned the tables and put the blame on me. God is watching what you do, and you will get your comeuppance sooner or later!"
"This marriage today has no say over you. If you don't get a divorce, I'll just give it up. And your family won't have a good life in the future." Tian Lili said fiercely.
Originally, Third Aunt felt sorry for Tian Lili, but after hearing what Tian Lili said, she felt a little guilty. She still did not agree with Tian Lili and Li Jianjun's divorce.
Although Li Jianjun has someone else outside, she grew up in such an environment and doesn't think it's a big deal. Many people just make do with their lives.
It is said that if you marry a chicken, you follow the chicken; if you marry a dog, you follow the dog. Even if your daughter does not marry a good husband, the mother will only blame herself for not choosing the right person at the time, but she has never thought of letting her daughter divorce her husband.
The others were just there to support her. As this involved Tian Lili's family affairs, the others were all cautious and didn't speak. The only voice in the yard was Tian Lili's firm and resolute voice.
"Lili! Mom knows you've suffered these years!" The third aunt pulled Tian Lili over to persuade her, "Then we can't get divorced. Won't the people in this brigade laugh at you in the future? Besides, you've been married for so many years and have a child. Don't you think about Jianjun? Don't you think about the child? What will happen to Baodan after you're gone?"
When Tian Tian heard the name Baodan, she rolled her eyes speechlessly.
"Think about it. Your son-in-law has found someone else outside and has a son. If you leave, won't it make room for them? When they bring their son here, who will be able to take care of Baodan? It is said that if you have a stepmother, you will have a stepfather. Aren't you worried that Baodan will not live well and be taught badly?"
Tian Lili was a little hesitant after hearing this. Although she didn't take care of the child much, he was still born from her belly. How could she not love him?
Although Li Baodan's temper is a little bit unreasonable now, and he is spoiled a little too much by his old lady, he is still young and can be punished if he needs a beating.
At that moment, Tian Lili really had the idea of not getting a divorce for the sake of Li Baodan.
Tian Tian suggested behind Tian Lili's back, "Then take Li Baodan away!"
Tian Lili's thoughts of staying were gone in an instant. Her eyes became firm again, and she turned her head and said to her mother-in-law: "Li Baodan wants to come with me too!"
"Lili! What are you saying?" San Na hurriedly stopped her. Seeing that Tian Lili had already spoken, he turned around and glared at Tian Tian who was giving him some random advice.
"How can you find such a considerate husband these days? What man doesn't cheat? Look at Zhang Lanru's family. Huang Kangri is always away from home and lives with widow Gao. Didn't Zhang Lanru also live with him? They haven't even mentioned divorce. Why are you thinking about this? Besides, your son-in-law will work in the city and eat city food. He won't have to dig for food in the countryside anymore. You won't have to suffer and you can still make money. Wouldn't you rather let him go? It's a lifetime, after all? Just make do and it will pass!"
