"I understand, mother."
Jiang Zhize used to be a loser, and Widow Zhang and Feng Chuchu could fool him with just a few words. But after these days, he could tell who was close to him and who was distant.
"But mom, if you and dad really want to divorce, where are we going to live in the future?"
Jiang Zhize felt that with his father's character, he would definitely not leave the house to Liu Chunhua. Moreover, this house was considered the ancestral home of the Jiang family, so Liu Chunhua would probably not be able to fight for it even if she wanted to.
"Don't worry about that. I've already arranged a place for you to live. When we move in, I'll find you a job as an apprentice. We can live a good life together, no worse than now!"
Jiang Zhize didn't know when Liu Chunhua arranged the house, but he knew what his mother said must be right.
"Okay, I'll listen to you."
The mother and her two children had a brief discussion. It was already late at night, so Liu Chunhua arranged for the two children to go to bed. On the other hand, Jiang Chao was facing trial.
"Chao, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but why were you so stupid that you were caught red-handed by Liu Chunhua?" Aunt Jiang and Uncle Jiang were furious at their lack of fighting spirit, both of them looked ashamed.
Jiang Chao had already lost face and had nothing to hide. Seeing this, he cried and said, "How could I have known that this woman would be so cruel? She even called the Women's Federation. I heard that she is the leader of the Women's Federation. Uncle, aunt, what do you think I should do now?"
"There is no other way. The evidence is in front of everyone. How can you still turn the tables? Now I ask you one question: do you want to divorce Liu Chunhua?"
"Of course I do! She made me look so embarrassed, and now the whole village is waiting to see me make a fool of myself. Even if she begs me, I won't live with her again!"
And there is Widow Zhang. After what happened tonight, Zhang Tieying yelled that she had lost face and said that she would kill herself if Jiang Chao didn't give her a legitimate status. Jiang Chao was afraid that someone would die, and he really couldn't bear to part with her, so he patted his chest and made a promise right away.
"I think you are confused. Liu Chunhua is hardworking and capable, but what is that widow Zhang? You want to break up a good family for such a woman!" The uncle was still a clear-headed man. He knew that without Liu Chunhua, Jiang Chao's life would not be easy. He wanted to persuade him with a few words, but was blocked by Aunt Jiang.
"Come on, is it Chao'er who is causing trouble now? It's obviously Liu Chunhua! No matter how good she is, she can't bully her own man like this. Does my Jiang family still need a daughter-in-law like her?"
Aunt Jiang swung her sleeves. Liu Chunhua's behavior these times had already made her very unhappy. She walked up to Jiang Chao and began to think carefully for him.
"According to the current situation, this marriage is most likely to be divorced, but we can't divorce for nothing. We have to find a way to get Liu Chunhua to pay out some money."
"But doesn't she have no money?" It was the uncle who spoke again. Aunt Jiang glared at her immediately and said, "Why are you so soft-hearted? She said she has no money, so she has no money? I think she was on guard from the beginning and hid all her valuables early on. Otherwise, think about it, would she dare to ask for a divorce without any money?"
"Besides, she wanted to get a divorce, so she should compensate our Jiang family. We spent a lot of money to buy her in the first place. We've let her eat and drink for free all these years, so we should settle every penny!"
"Aunt, what you said is that Liu Chunhua grew up eating the food of my Jiang family. If she wants to abandon her husband and children now, she has to show some sincerity! I understand. I will go back and settle the score with her!"
"Why are you in such a hurry? It's too late now. If you continue to make a scene, the neighbors will laugh at you. I'll go with you tomorrow morning."
"Okay, thank you, aunt. I knew you were the best to me." Jiang Chao smiled and showed his goodwill. Aunt Jiang also looked very pleased.
She and Uncle Jiang never had a son in their lives, only a worthless daughter. She truly loved Jiang Chao from the bottom of her heart and treated him as her own child. She would not allow Liu Chunhua, an outsider, to bully him no matter what.
Seeing the two of them getting together again to plan carefully, Uncle Jiang sighed silently.
It is said that a man who harms his wife will never gain any wealth. If Jiang Chao does this, he will probably end up in a miserable future.
On that day, as soon as the sun rose, Jiang Chao and Aunt Jiang came to settle accounts with Liu Chunhua.
When the two entered the room, Liu Chunhua had already prepared breakfast and was packing the remaining clothes in front of the cupboard.
"Oh, you're in such a hurry to pack up, Liu Chunhua, don't you have anything to tell me?"
Liu Chunhua glanced at the two of them calmly, her hands moving non-stop, "I've said everything I needed to say last night. If Jiang Chao continues to procrastinate, someone from the Women's Federation will come to him to cooperate. I'm not in a hurry."
Seeing her reckless attitude, Aunt Jiang exploded and slammed the square table in the main hall. "Liu Chunhua! You grew up eating the rice of my Jiang family. Are you talking to me like this now?"
"Okay then, just tell me what you want to do."
Liu Chunhua's attitude was too calm, which made the two of them feel a little unsure about what to do. In fact, the reason why she was so calm was that she received the news that the two of them were coming over early in the morning.
If you are mentally prepared, there is nothing to panic about.
"Liu Chunhua, we are husband and wife. Since you are determined to divorce me, I don't want to drag you down. As long as you are willing to compensate me 500 yuan, I will go through the divorce procedures with you. How about it?"
[500? Compensation? You are crazy about money.] Jiang Ruyi had just finished breakfast and heard such incredible words as soon as she entered the room.
Jiang Chao, however, felt that he had done his best. If he had been unsure of how much money Liu Chunhua had, he would have wanted more!
"You don't have to tell me you don't have money. I'm just saying this. If you don't give me the money, you can forget about getting a divorce."
"Aren't you afraid that the people from the Women's Federation will come looking for you?" Liu Chunhua looked at him hatefully. She didn't expect Jiang Chao to dare to ask for such a high price.
Hearing this, Jiang Chao laughed nonchalantly and even took two puffs of his cigarette. "The Women's Federation controls everything, so why would they care about my shit and farts? Don't forget, we still have three children! If I fight with you for the custody, do you think it will take three to five years? Can the people from the Women's Federation make the decision?"
At this point, Liu Chunhua and Jiang Ruyi both fell silent.
[This is so disgusting. He doesn't want a child at all, and he dares to threaten you with the child! ]
Liu Chunhua also knew that Jiang Chao had no intention of raising a child at all, but he brought it up so blatantly just to force her to give him money!
"What if I don't?"
"That's no choice. I'll have to call the second child back, and we'll sit together as a family to discuss what to do." Jiang Chao smiled evilly, like a devil, "I just don't know if he will still be in the mood for school by then?"
