Xu Jueping was completely disabled, with a strange and violent temper. Xu Qing and his wife came to him several times, but seeing that it was useless, they quickly sent him to a sanatorium.
Without the help of his father-in-law, the Xu family's status in the family plummeted, and the Chu family no longer thought highly of them.
A few days later, Qin Dongling was honored in a conflict and was appointed commander of the military region. When his family went to the general military region, he was still a small battalion commander.
Guan Jinghua was finally about to leave this place that had trapped her for who knows how many years.
Xu Mei knew her mother's illness, so she found Xu Qing and asked him to cooperate in completing her mother's divorce procedures.
After not seeing each other for a few days, Xu Qing looked old and decadent, while Xu Mei was bright and indifferent. Looking at the young and beautiful sister in front of him, he was in a trance for a moment.
He had already heard from Xu Mei that they were going to Beijing, and at this moment he couldn't describe the feeling in his heart... envy, jealousy, regret, annoyance? Maybe all of them.
The memories of ten years ago were becoming increasingly vague. He could no longer quite recall the feeling of living under the same roof with his sister, nor had he nearly forgotten the reason why the mother and daughter left home.
He just couldn't help but think, how great it would be if his sister and mother hadn't left home? His mother would have taken care of him, and he would have had a capable brother-in-law. Why would he end up like this?
But it's too late to say this now.
The family of the commander who was affiliated with the general military region was not someone Xu Qing could easily offend, not to mention that he was a person who flattered the powerful and looked down on the weak.
He was smart for once. Knowing that the situation was irreversible, he did not pester her and agreed directly.
On the day of the formalities, Xu Qing pushed the wheelchair and waited at the door. After Xu Mei and Guan Jinghua arrived, the group went in to fill out the forms.
Seeing Xu Jueping, both mother and daughter were a little surprised.
Xu Jueping had a crooked mouth, squinting eyes, and his hands were shriveled like chicken claws. He was so thin that he was trapped in a wheelchair. He was a far cry from his former domineering and paranoid appearance.
But his mind was clearly clear. Even though he could no longer speak, he still looked at Guan Jinghua with poisonous eyes, as if it was Guan Jinghua who had caused him to become what he was today.
But Guan Jinghua is no longer the woman who put her husband first.
Today, her daughter Xu Mei is the editor of the "Army Construction Daily" and her son-in-law Qin Dongling is the commander. They have a bright future.
She holds her head high and owes nothing to anyone.
What's more, Dong Ling is such a promising man who still loves his wife and daughter and respects his mother-in-law from the bottom of his heart. Who is he, Xu Jueping?
Xu Qing quickly assisted in completing the formalities.
A group of people came out of the door together. A green GAZ jeep stopped at the door. The rear window rolled down, and a little girl in a miniskirt and a beautiful hairstyle poked her head out. "Mom, Grandma."
The 20-year-old girl has red lips and white teeth, and is as delicate as a piece of jade. When she looks at her dearest mother, 20-year-old grandmother, there are little stars in her eyes.
As she moved, the emerald green jade pendant around her neck became particularly conspicuous.
Xu Mei and Guan Jinghua's expressions suddenly became very soft.
"Xiao Man, how many times has Mom told you not to stick your head out casually? What if something happens?"
Xu Mei walked closer, with a hint of reproach in her tone.
Qin Yuman knew that her father was unreliable, so she just looked at her grandmother. Seeing the pitiful expression in those beautiful eyes, Guan Jinghua quickly gave up.
"Okay," she said, "what could happen? Our Xiaoman is sensible and won't jump out of the window."
"Yes," Qin Yuman said proudly, "If there were a lot of cars on the road, I would reach in. Otherwise, it would be bad if another car hit my hand and broke it."
"This kid." Xu Mei smiled helplessly, "Don't talk nonsense. Besides, do you think jeeps are cabbages on the street?"
Being able to ride in this car at this moment is a symbol of power and status, but the little girl doesn't seem to know what this means.
Xiaoman was a little confused. She remembered that many people had cars at home, and sometimes traffic jams were so crowded that all the cars were red. But why were cars always so rare in her family's mouths?
However, although she was confused, she kept it to herself and didn't say anything.
Ever since she grew up, many of the things she said were obviously true, but her mother and grandmother would look at her as if she was just a naive child.
Unfortunately, these memories only emerged slowly as she grew older, and it was difficult for her to explain them clearly.
Even though Qin Yuman was young, she was smart and flexible, so she simply stopped talking.
Fortunately, Xu Mei just sighed casually and didn't expect her daughter to give any answer.
Qin Dongling got out of the car and opened the door for them.
Today, Qin Dongling's facial features have become increasingly cold and resolute, but when he sees his wife, his eyes and brows reveal an intoxicating tenderness.
"Is everything going well?" He took the bag from Xu Mei.
"It went smoothly." Xu Mei also winked at him, her eyes moving around him, "Your military uniform is really nice."
Qin Dongling smiled slightly. Perhaps this was another reason why he liked wearing military uniform.
"Hey, Mom." Qin Yuman smiled broadly, "Aren't you afraid that grandma will hear you?"
The couple looked at each other, and Guan Jinghua was about to go around to the other side to open the car door, so it seemed that she didn't hear it.
Xu Mei relaxed her breath, stretched out her fingers, and gently pinched her daughter's face. "Little brat, I think I have to be careful not to hear you."
At this moment, Guan Jinghua opened the other car door and saw this scene. She raised her eyebrows and said, "I told you not to pinch Xiaoman's face. You will drool when you sleep later."
Xu Mei quickly let go of her hand.
But Xiaoman was not ready to let her mother go. She nodded seriously and said, "So this is why I drool a lot sometimes."
Xu Mei glared at the little traitor, trying to defend herself in front of her mother, "Are you sure it's not because you changed your body?"
"Whose child changes his shirt when he's only a year old?" Guan Jinghua said as he closed the car door.
Qin Dongling had long been accustomed to this way of getting along with others. With a smile on his face, he left with a car full of laughter and joy.
Not far away,
Xu Qing pushed Xu Jueping's wheelchair, and Ji Fangshu watched all this intently.
The couple's looks were quite complicated.
Originally they could still hold on, but seeing their blood relatives so happy and successful was a heavy blow to them.
Xu Jueping, who was in a wheelchair, looked at the departing jeep with hatred in his eyes, so he did not notice that his son-in-law and daughter-in-law also had hatred in their eyes.
When they got home that night, a fierce quarrel broke out between the couple, which eventually turned into Ji Fangshu asking for a divorce.
She has her family backing her up, so Xu Qing had no choice but to agree.
But the head of the Ji family was also ruthless enough to tell Ji Fangshu clearly that they could not have children if they divorced, so their only son was left to Xu Qing.
For a time, both of them became divorced men.
It only took ten years for the Xu family to go from being praised by everyone to fading away.
