Shen Man gently leaned on Yang Fang's shoulder, "Mom, there are no ifs in life, don't think so much, these are not your fault."

"You still have me behind you anyway, so divorce is no big deal."

"You can also go with me to join the army. We can take Mingchuan with us."

Yang Fang felt warm in her heart, she looked down at her lady's profile and smiled.

"You should go with the army by yourself. I have a job, and it's a formal one. I earn several dozen yuan a month, which is enough to support Mingchuan and me."

"You and Qinglin have just been together, and his job is special, so you two should cultivate your relationship well."

"We didn't know anyone in the past, so it's better to be at ease in this small county. At least I still have work every day, and when I have free time, I can chat with my girlfriends and go shopping in the department store."

"If I really want to go with you to join the army, I guess I'll have to stay at home every day and I'll get sick sooner or later."

She could see that the two of them were not very familiar with each other.

However, most people get married this way nowadays. After marriage, they spend more time together and naturally develop feelings for each other.

Shen Man thought about it and it made sense. Her mother was a person who could not sit still. She loved going to work and interacting with people. If she went to join the army with her, she would probably have to stay at home.

As for Mingchuan, he probably prefers to stay in a familiar place and doesn't want to be separated from his mother.

…

Late in the evening, Shen Xiangxiao just returned home.

Aunt Liu from next door came over and knocked on the door, "Old Shen, Old Shen, your Xiao Ping is still in the hospital. There is no one to take care of her. How can you be so cruel as a father? You don't even go to look after your daughter even though she is in such a state."

"Yes, where is your wife? Why isn't she at home?"

Aunt Liu pushed the door open and entered the room, only to see Shen Xiangxiao lying on the ground and pouring wine into his mouth. She was frightened so much that she backed away, covering her chest.

"Hey, why are you lying on the ground drinking? What's going on? What happened?"

Shen Xiang raised his head and took another big gulp of wine, reeking of alcohol.

"She doesn't want me, she wants to divorce me, hahahaha, she wants to divorce me..."

Aunt Liu was stunned for a moment, "What divorce? Your wife wants to divorce you?"

"That's impossible. Could it be... some misunderstanding?"

Although Yang Fang and Shen Xiangxiao are remarried and the couple each has a child, their relationship is getting better year by year.

No one thought highly of them at first, but unexpectedly, in the next ten years, these two people have hardly made a name for themselves.

Yang Fang is beautiful and capable, and she keeps the house in order. Shen Xiang is good to his wife and hands over his monthly salary on time.

Who in this compound doesn’t envy them as a couple?

In this compound, no matter who wants to get divorced, it is impossible for them to get divorced.

Shen Xiang covered his face with his hands and cried silently, "I am sorry for her, I am wrong..."

"If I had known earlier, I shouldn't have brought Shen Ping back. She is a nuisance..."

Aunt Liu listened to the man's drunken talk, and she could only roughly guess the truth about their divorce based on these words.

She wondered in her heart, could it be because of what happened when Shen Ping came back from hometown?

But this doesn't make sense. Shen Ping has only been away from home for more than half a year, so why did she come back? Is it because Shen Xiang did something to Yang Fang that made her want a divorce?

The more Aunt Liu thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong. No, no, they had been married for half their lives, how could they just get divorced because of some things?

She has to go talk to Yang Fang.

If this woman gets divorced, her reputation will be ruined.

She couldn't just watch her get confused like this.

After some inquiries, Aunt Liu still couldn't find out where Yang Fang had gone.

Someone reminded her, "You can go to the supply and marketing cooperative to see Yang Fang at work tomorrow morning and see for yourself. She can't be absent from work."

Aunt Liu slapped her thigh fiercely, "Yeah, why didn't I think of that."

So the next day.

Not long after Yang Fang started working, Aunt Liu went directly to the supply and marketing cooperative to find her, but the supply and marketing cooperative was busy and crowded, and Yang Fang was also very busy.

After waiting for a long time, it was finally time for the next class.

"Mrs. Liu, why are you here? You haven't been waiting for me, have you?" Yang Fang already had some guesses in her mind, but her expression remained calm.

Aunt Liu looked around, pulled the person to a deserted corner, and whispered, "Xiaofang, I heard that you want to divorce Lao Shen. Is this true?"

Yang Fang glanced at her and said, "Sister-in-law, did Shen Xiang tell you this?"

Aunt Liu smiled jokingly, "Don't worry about this. Tell me the truth, is this true?"

"You two were fine a few days ago, but now you're getting divorced. I'm telling you two, you're both in your forties, and every couple quarrels and makes up every now and then."

"If you have anything to say, just talk it out. There's no need to make a fuss about it."

"Divorce is not a trivial matter. Both of you are remarried, so you should know that divorce is not easy. Especially since Manman just got divorced not long ago, and you, as a mother, are also getting divorced. How can you face others and say anything about you and Manman?"

Yang Fang sighed and raised her hand to wipe her tears, "Sister-in-law, I'll tell you the truth. If I could have gotten through this, I wouldn't have ended up getting divorced."

"Unfortunately, Shen Xiang didn't think so. Sister-in-law, you don't know that he actually secretly hid his job from me and exchanged it with someone else for a position in a textile factory, just to get Shen Ping back."

"I was kept in the dark about this until Shen Ping came home yesterday, and I found out about it."

Aunt Liu's eyes widened with disbelief, "What? You said he secretly exchanged jobs with you to let Shen Ping come back?"

"He...he is so brave?"

This is no small matter. These days, it is not easy to find a job, and most people work to take over for their parents.

The whole family, young and old, lives on wages.

No wonder Yang Fang wanted to divorce Shen Xiangxiao. If it were her, she would probably make a fuss too.

Yang Fang's eyes were red and red, and it seemed that she could no longer suppress her emotions, and tears just fell out.

She directly pulled Aunt Liu to suppress her voice and started crying, "That's okay, but what's even worse is what happened to Manman and Zhengguo four years ago."

"Shen Xiang...he actually knew that Manman was being plotted against, but not only did he not tell anyone, he also helped that person...destroy the evidence and helped that person destroy my daughter's innocence."

"Sister-in-law, tell me... How can I continue to live with a man like that? He is also the one who harmed my daughter. I really can't face him. Whenever I think about this, I want to beat him to death."
