Chapter 73



"What on earth are you dissatisfied with me for?"

Zhang Fengxia smiled teasingly, "Sister-in-law, you heard it wrong, I... I didn't say anything to mom."

"You must have heard it wrong just now."

After saying that, she turned around and winked at Lu's mother, "Mom, are you right? We didn't say anything just now."

Mother Lu nodded somewhat awkwardly.

Some things are better said behind people's backs, but they were said in front of Shen Man. We didn't know how serious she would make a fuss, and she might even offend Yang Fang.

That person is not someone you can easily mess with. Last time she came to their house, she almost made the Lu family lose face in front of the entire courtyard.

Shen Man's face turned completely cold, and she glanced at all the Lu family members in the venue.

Did you hear wrong?

Oh, did she hear it right?

"It just so happens that everyone is here today. I have an announcement to make. I have decided to divorce Lu Zhengguo."

"From now on, I will not serve you, the Lu family."

After hearing this, everyone in the Lu family stopped eating and looked at Lu Zhengguo, completely stunned.

What, divorce?

They must have heard it right, Shen Man actually planned to divorce.

Didn't Jungkook take her with him to join the army? What else could she be dissatisfied with?

Lu Zhengguo stood up suddenly, his eyes dark, and looked deeply at Shen Man, with an inexplicable emotion surging in his heart.

"Shen Man, are you... serious?"

You can't talk nonsense about divorce.

They had just agreed today not to divorce for the time being, and had just signed their names on the newly written letter of guarantee before locking it in the cabinet.

But before one month had passed, she filed for divorce.

Shen Man nodded, looking straight into his eyes, "Yes, I'm serious."

"Lu Zhengguo, your family members take advantage of my absence and say all kinds of bad things about me in front of you. I am really fed up with this kind of life."

"Divorce is good for both you and me. We can be together. I won't mind, you won't mind, and your family members won't mind either."

She was really fed up with this kind of quarrelsome and chaotic life.

Especially Zhang Fengxia, who even dragged her brother into it. Today, not only did she make her mother angry, but she also caused Mingchuan to fight with others for her, leaving him injured all over.

She really couldn't help it.

Lu Zhengguo's body froze, and he could hardly utter a few words, "What if we split up and I move in alone?"

She had indeed suffered a lot because of his family.

This is undeniable.

Mother Lu's face suddenly changed, and she opened her mouth to retort, "Divide the family? What family? This is absolutely not possible, Zhengguo, don't even think about it."

The old couple haven't died yet, and Hongmei hasn't married yet, so why are they making a fuss about dividing the family?

Father Lu's expression was not looking good either. He glanced at Shen Man, then at Lu Zhengguo, and said in a deep voice.

"Zhengguo, before you got married, your mother and I had already discussed with you two brothers that if you want to divide the family, you have to wait until Hongmei gets married."

"Hongmei has just graduated from high school and started working, and she doesn't even have a partner. What are you talking about? As a military officer, are you going to break your promise to your parents?"

"Are you still a qualified soldier?"

Although Zhang Fengxia hopes to separate the family sooner, she is not stupid.

Lu Zhengguo's current monthly salary is more than 100 yuan, which is almost twice as much as his and her husband's combined salary.

She understood that if the family was divided later, she would get more things later.

So she tugged at Lu Zhengbing's sleeve and whispered, "Why don't you speak up? Go and persuade your brother. Your family is fine now. Why divide it up? It will make people laugh at you."

Lu Zhengbing raised his hand and rubbed his brow, "Zhengguo, you should think about the separation carefully. Dad hasn't retired yet, and Hongmei hasn't married yet. It's too early for you to mention the separation now."

After saying this, he looked up at Shen Man again, his tone somewhat apologetic.

"Sister-in-law, don't argue with Zheng Guo about divorce. He just came back alive from the army. It's not easy for Zheng Guo. You should also be more considerate of him. For what happened tonight, I apologize on behalf of mom, your sister-in-law, and you. I'm sorry."

As Lu Zhengbing spoke, he bowed his head and apologized to Shen Man.

Shen Man's face was indifferent, and she still stood there unmoved.

They were not trying to persuade her not to divorce. It was clearly because the interests of their Lu family were at stake, so they had to take sides.

Zhang Fengxia nodded repeatedly, "Yes, Zhengguo, sister-in-law, you are talking about dividing the family now, but you haven't considered our parents or Hongmei at all."

"No matter what, we have to wait until Hongmei gets married. Otherwise, who will she live with in the future?"

Lu Hongmei slammed the dishes and chopsticks on the table and stood up from the stool.

"Brother, sister-in-law, if you want to separate, just separate. Why are you using my name to do it? Just let me go. As long as you separate, I will not come back. I have already applied for a dormitory in the factory, and I will live in the dormitory from now on."

Don't worry, she doesn't know that these two people just don't want to separate. They just want to enjoy the benefits brought by their brother and sister-in-law.

Mother Lu looked unhappy. She pulled Lu Hongmei to sit down and said, "This matter today has nothing to do with you. Shut up and stop talking nonsense."

Really, it was clearly their own money that bought her a job, and I don't know why this damn girl is so biased towards Shen Man.

When Shen Man was selling her job, she didn't consider that she was her sister-in-law and gave her the job for free or for less money.

How could she give birth to such a fool without even knowing that she was being used as a gun?

Lu Hongmei rolled her eyes and said, "Yes, yes, this family has nothing to do with me. I am just a daughter, and I will belong to someone else sooner or later. Only my son belongs to your Lu family."

"I don't have a say in this family. Only my brother and my brother have a say."

Mother Lu glared at her and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? Your father and I treat all of you the same."

Lu Hongmei curled her lips and ignored her.

It's the same. When her family gives her money to buy work, they won't ask her to sign an IOU.

Shen Man, who was standing by, watched the family working, and couldn't help but raise her hand to interrupt them.

"Wait, don't you understand me? I'm talking about divorce, not separation."

"Your separation has nothing to do with me. I just want a divorce now."

Lu Zhengguo pursed his lips, his eyes always looking at Shen Man, "If it's because of my family, we can split up. After the split, I will take you to join the army."

He had always thought that even if his family disliked Shen Man, they would not make things difficult for her.

But later he learned from Hongmei that Shen Man had indeed suffered a lot of grievances because of his family, including tonight, when his mother and sister-in-law talked about her behind her back.
