The next day came in a flash.

Yang Fang planned to ask Shen Xiang for a divorce that afternoon. Now that the decision has been made, don't delay it for too long.

Shen Man felt relieved, "Mom, I'll be off work by then, I'll go with you."

"Yes, yes. You can prepare dinner at home and wait for me. Your Aunt Liu will accompany me then. It will probably take some time. Let's settle this." Yang Fang waved her hand.

Shen Man thought about it and decided that with her mother's personality and the presence of Aunt Liu, the divorce should be resolved quickly.

"Okay, I'll make something delicious for you at home."

So after work in the afternoon, Shen Man went to buy some vegetables and went home to cook a table of delicious dishes.

Since she couldn't buy any meat, she went out to buy some cooked food and brought back a portion of braised pig's trotters with soybeans.

When Shen Mingchuan got home from school, he smelled the fragrance in the house and his eyes lit up instantly. "Sister, what delicious food did you make? Why does it smell so good?"

I even put down my schoolbag and ran to the kitchen to check.

I happened to see pig's trotters stewed with soybeans and scrambled eggs with green peppers on the stove. They were so fragrant that I couldn't help swallowing my saliva.

"Sister, your craftsmanship is amazing."

In our family, besides mom, my sister is the best cook, but unfortunately she doesn't often cook in the kitchen.

Shen Man rolled her eyes and continued cooking. "The stewed pig's trotters with soybeans were bought from a state-owned hotel. It takes an eighth-level chef to make this dish. It's really delicious."

Even though her cooking skills are not good, she is still a good match for an eighth-level chef.

Shen Mingchuan came up with a smile, "But in my heart, you and mom's cooking is the most delicious."

"When you join the army in the future, I guess I'll get to eat the meals you cook." Thinking of this, his eyes dimmed.

Shen Man smiled and said, "What's the matter? If you miss me, you can get a letter during the holidays and come to my place to play for a while."

"Since you're in the army, you should hone your procrastinating temper."

Shen Mingchuan thought about it, then shook his head and said, "Forget it, I'll go anyway. Mom is the only one at home, and she will definitely be lonely."

Now my parents are divorced, and my sister is getting married soon. From now on, I will be the only one left in the family to accompany my mother.

Shen Man also felt a little upset. She wanted these two to go with her to join the army, but she thought it was impossible.

Her mother had a formal job and Mingchuan had to go to school, so they were both willing to leave the place where they had lived for more than a decade.

Not long after.

Yang Fang came back, and her marriage with Shen Xiang was completely over.

At first Shen Xiangxiao was determined to agree, but after some criticism from the neighbors and threats from Yang Fang, he finally agreed to the divorce.

"In addition to the divorce, Shen Xiang got back the passbook that Shen Ping took away and divided the money into four parts, three of which were given to us, mother and son."

"Manman, you too." Yang Fang took out a passbook from her pocket, opened it, and displayed the remaining balance on it.

The total amount was four hundred and ten yuan, and each person got one hundred yuan.

Yang Fang looked at the two of them and said, "Although the money is high, it's what you deserve."

Shen Man shook her head, "Mom, I don't want my share, give it to Mingchuan."

She actually had quite a bit of money on her. All in all, it must be around one or two thousand, not to mention the passbook that Gu Qinglin had given her, and the money she would get from resigning from her job.

Shen Mingchuan waved his hand to refuse, "Yes, I do, sister, you are getting married soon, and it's so far away, I want to give you my share as a wedding gift."

Seeing the good relationship between the siblings, Yang Fang's eyes flashed with relief, "Alright, alright, stop pushing the issue back and forth. Who should get the money? Who should get it? Each of you should get one share. You can pass it back and forth."

"I have already prepared your sister's wedding dowry for her."

"Mingchuan will need money for school in the future, and I'm also saving money for the family when he grows up. As long as mom is here, it's your turn to worry about these things."

Although she loved her daughter, her son was also her own, and she had already started preparing things for him.

…

In a blink of an eye, a month passed.

Shen Mang had just sat down in the office to start working.

Someone ran up to her and said, "Comrade Shen, this is your phone number. The person's surname is Gu."

Shen Man walked over and answered the phone, and the person on the other end was Gu Qinglin.

"Shen Man, it's me. The marriage application has been approved. When will you come over? I'll pick you up at the station."

"So fast?" Shen Man was a little surprised at first, but after thinking about it, it was normal. After all, it was already a month.

Gu Qinglin pursed his lips and suddenly remembered something.

On the day when I submitted my marriage application, I unexpectedly learned that Lu Zhengguo's ex-wife was the same person as Shen Man.

Although I knew that Shen Man had been married before I decided to marry her, I never expected that her ex-husband would be Lu Zhengguo.

I don't know Lu Zhengguo, but I'm not familiar with him. We are in the same unit, and he is indeed an excellent person.

The chief, 놊꿀, once mentioned the other party in front of 놛, and his words were full of admiration.

This time when Lu Zhengguo went back, he was promoted to a higher level, and now he has become the deputy group leader next door.

In the entire army, among people of almost the same rank, only he aroused admiration.

Shen Man noticed that the man on the other end of the phone was slow to speak and thought there was something wrong with the phone.

"Hello, Gu Qinglin, are you still there, hello..."

"I'm here." Gu Qinglin came back to his senses and lowered his eyes to hide the complexity in his eyes.

Shen Man thought for a moment, "I plan to set out the day after tomorrow. Calculating the time, it will take about a day and a night to get to your unit by car."

"I'll book a ticket for the noon train. When I get to your place, it should be morning. You can pick me up at the station then."

Although she had already secured the job in advance, the handover procedures had not yet been completed. It should be finished tomorrow, and she would spend one night with her mother and Mingchuan in the evening, so the time was just right.

Gu Qinglin nodded, "Okay, I'll pick you up then."

"I've also applied for housing in the military. We have two places to choose from. One is a building, but it's not finished yet. I estimate that you'll have to wait another month or two before you can move in."

"The other one is a small courtyard, it's quite large, with four rooms. The only good thing about it is that it's a bit old, but the lighting is good and everything else is OK, you can move in right away."

"Look, do you want to live in the building or choose that small courtyard?"

Shen Man thought for a moment, "You can't just look at these when choosing a house. You also have to look at the surrounding neighbors. You should listen more. If there are no neighbors who are easy to get along with, you should move to another place."
