"No, I don't agree. Besides, how can you guarantee that you can have a son with someone else? You and Rou Niang are still young. If you work hard, you will definitely have a son."
Zhao Youtian naturally advised reconciliation rather than separation, but Zhao Dayou was determined. Zhao Youtian pleaded with him until his mouth was dry, but Zhao Dayou stubbornly insisted on divorce. If Zhao Youtian tried to persuade him too much, Zhao Dayou would threaten to sell everyone he had ever been with and then remarry!
Zhao Youtian was utterly disappointed! He finally agreed.
Zhao Dayou was delighted to see Zhao Youtian nod. He then thought about what Zhao Eryou and Zhao Dahua had done and felt a chill in his heart. So he said, "Clan leader, it's like this. I'm thinking of selling my house and land and starting a small business. That way I'll have some money to get married and have children in the future."
“How can you do that? That was passed down from your father. You’re just going to sell it like that. Does Eryou know about this?” Zhao Youtian frowned.
"He's already plotting to sell my wife and daughters, does the clan chief think I should still tell him?" Zhao Dayou retorted.
Zhao Youtian was silent for a moment, then asked, "Now that you're divorced, how are you going to let Li Rou Niang raise the children? Or do you intend to bring all three children to your side and send Rou Niang back to her parents' home?"
"As you know, clan chief, if her parents cared about their daughter, they wouldn't have stopped coming all these years. Besides, I heard they severed ties with her, right? Even if I send her back, they might not want her. As for my three daughters, I've thought about it. They've never been close to me since they were little, and I've never even met my youngest. If Rou Niang is willing, then give them all to her. If she's not willing, then I'll deal with them all," Zhao Dayou said coldly.
"What do you mean by 'handling everything'?" Zhao Youtian was taken aback and looked at Zhao Dayou in disbelief.
"Da Ni and Er Ni are of age now, and they could probably fetch a good price if sold to human traffickers. As for San Ni, the clan chief will give her to whichever family wants a child," Zhao Dayou said coldly.
"How could you be so foolish?" Zhao Youtian was furious.
"Clan leader, I really have no choice. Yuhe is pregnant with my son." Seeing that Zhao Youtian was angry, Da You hurriedly explained, but he accidentally let it slip and quickly covered his mouth, but it was too late!
Zhao Youtian immediately realized why Zhao Dayou wanted a divorce; he already had someone else.
It was fate that Zhao Dayou and Bai Yuhe met. Zhao Dayou was tricked by his younger siblings and his mother had passed away. Feeling depressed, he went down the mountain to drink. Unexpectedly, he bumped into a woman and they fell in love at first sight.
The white jade lotus was elegant and refined, like a fairy descended from heaven in Zhao Dayou's eyes.
Learning that Bai Yuhe was currently alone and destitute, the two got together, and soon Yuhe became pregnant.
That's not the most important thing. The most important thing is that Zhao Dayou happened to meet a Taoist priest who predicted everything about him with incredible accuracy, which convinced Zhao Dayou. The priest told him that Yuhe's pregnancy was actually a reincarnation of the God of Literature, and that she would one day become the top scholar in the imperial examination.
However, the Taoist priest also told Zhao Dayou that Wenquxing (the star of literature) had three older sisters who were considered unlucky stars and would block his fortune. He said that there would be no problem if they did not live together.
Of course, she is, after all, the sister of the God of Literature, and should not be harmed. It's best to leave her alone and let her fend for herself. Otherwise, it will be detrimental to the God of Literature!
Originally, Zhao Dayou planned to sell Rou Niang and her daughter to make a profit after returning home, but for the sake of his son, he took a step back and chose to divorce.
Bai Yuhe cried and said that she was afraid he would take her back to the village as soon as they divorced, and that people would point fingers at her. She suggested that they should sell the house and land and live in the town for a while until things calmed down before returning to the village.
For his son's sake, Zhao Dayou nodded. Besides, he wanted to teach his younger siblings a lesson for how they had treated him.
After learning about Zhao Dayou's situation, Zhao Youtian was furious. He was nagging and trying to persuade Li Rouniang, but Zhao Dayou already had someone else and was pregnant.
"Since that's the case, then I won't try to persuade you anymore. But it's always good to leave some room for maneuver. If you just leave nothing to Li Rou Niang, she might make a huge scene, which wouldn't be good for you or your Yu He. Your future son will also be criticized. How about this: I'll send you the money from selling the land, and the money from selling the house can be left for Li Rou Niang and the three children. That way, you'll be kind and righteous, and you'll have a good reputation. What do you think?"
Zhao Youtian felt somewhat guilty towards Li Rouniang, so he tried to advocate for her.
Zhao Dayou pondered for a long time. He was actually unwilling, but he figured he would eventually return to the village, and if he didn't give the clan chief face, it wouldn't be easy to go back.
Li Rouniang probably won't leave Zhao Family Village. He can just ask her for it back when he goes back.
Thinking of this, he nodded and said, "Then let's do as the clan chief says."
The rest was simple. Zhao Dayou signed a written agreement, and Zhao Xiaoyoutian hurriedly returned to the village with it.
After Zhao Eryou's outburst, Li Rouniang inexplicably gained a lot of confidence in her skills, thinking that when Zhao Dayou returned, she would let him taste what it's like to be beaten!
She will avenge all the grudges from her past and present lives.
This time, she's not in a hurry to get a divorce. She wants to teach Zhao Dayou a lesson and show him that women aren't so easy to bully!
Li Rouniang eagerly awaited Zhao Dayou's return, and practiced her kung fu even more diligently each day.
Upon hearing that Zhao Youtian had returned, Li Rouniang hurriedly went over to ask, "Clan leader, how is Zhao Dayou? When will he be back?"
"Rou Niang, there's something I need to tell you," Zhao Dayou said guiltily.
"What is it, clan chief? Is Zhao Dayou injured? Is he disabled or dying?" Li Rouniang asked.
Zhao Youtian: ...
"It's not Rou Niang, don't worry, Da You is doing very well."
That's really disappointing!
Li Rouniang remained calm and waited quietly for Zhao Youtian to continue.
Zhao Youtian said with difficulty, "Rou Niang, it's like this, Da You wants a divorce."
Li Rouniang was taken aback. This was the first time in their many years of marriage that they had been so in sync. Suddenly, she remembered something and asked anxiously, "Then, clan chief, did Zhao Dayou say who the child should go to?"
Zhao Youtian quickly comforted her, "Rou Niang, don't worry, he doesn't want the child, he said he'll give it all to you."
Great news has arrived!
She was worried about it for days!
"Why would he suddenly want a divorce?" Li Rouniang wondered, genuinely puzzled.
Zhao Youtian looked at Li Rouniang with sympathy. He didn't tell the whole story, but only told half of the truth: "He said that what Eryou and Zhao Dahua did this time made him feel disheartened, and Aunt Zhao always wanted to have a grandson before she died, so he thought about starting over and finding a woman to have a son."
Li Rouniang was stunned. Was it really that simple? Had Zhao Dayou changed his ways while working in the mines?!
