Chapter 157 You go and sue, it’s a good opportunity for us to go back home together

The news that Zhang Xinrong had filed for divorce quickly spread throughout the family compound.

The whole family compound was suddenly in an uproar.

They never thought that Zhang Xinrong would actually file for divorce!

After all, Wang Chunmei is now employed and works in a machinery factory!

Is Zhang Xinrong crazy?

Although two couples have divorced in the family compound, divorce is still a shameful thing in this day and age.

For a while, the whole family was wondering why Zhang Xinrong wanted to file for divorce.

Co-coach Qi Sheng also approached Zhang Xinrong with a puzzled look on his face.

"Mr. Zhang, how do you submit a divorce report?"

This is already the third couple in the family compound who are going to get divorced. Teacher Qin looked very unhappy and asked him to come and ask what was going on.

"We soldiers shed blood and sweat outside, and it's not easy to be a soldier's wife inside. You're a grown man, what can't you talk about in a peaceful way? Why do you have to file for divorce?"

In this conservative era, when it comes to divorce, almost everyone will subconsciously think that the woman must have done something to be divorced by the man.

Qi Sheng thought so too.

Seeing that he remained silent, he kept comforting him and told him not to act impulsively.

"We are all strong men. Don't be stubborn with your wife. It's not shameful to give in to her. Besides, your wife is a worker in a machinery factory. What else are you dissatisfied with?"

After hearing this, Zhang Xinrong, who had remained silent, finally responded.

Seeing Qi Sheng's expression as if he had been kicked in the head by a donkey, Zhang Xinrong smiled self-deprecatingly.

"Chunmei was the one who proposed the divorce. She doesn't want to live with me anymore."

Wang Chunmei has been at the machinery factory for five days.

Zhang Xinrong's life has been in a mess these days.

Zhu Lai Di was used to being served, so she never cooked or did laundry. She just waited for him to come back every day to cook, do laundry, and clean.

Besides that, he also has to take care of two naughty boys.

Chunmei had always done these things in the past. Even if she was indifferent to him, the house was still kept tidy.

Even though her mother scolded her like that, she still washed her clothes in silence.

This is also the reason why his mother always said bad things about Chunmei to him, but Zhang Xinrong didn't believe it at all.

Zhang Xinrong had often done laundry and cooking before he joined the army, but it had been so long that he seemed unfamiliar with the tasks when he did them again.

Wang Chunmei seemed to be doing it easily, but in his hands, it became a mess.

Qi Sheng was shocked to hear that it was Wang Chunmei who proposed the divorce!

"Why?"

Zhang Xinrong smiled bitterly.

"I was too messy before and neglected her, causing her to suffer."

Hearing this, Qi Sheng also remembered what happened some time ago when Zhu Lai Di just came to the family compound and beat Wang Chunmei, and finally alarmed Teacher Qin.

Qi Sheng was clearly aware of this. It was definitely Zhu Lai Di's fault that the couple could no longer live together.

Patting his shoulder, Qi Sheng couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

The relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law has been an unsolvable problem for thousands of years. Even if you are a counselor, you cannot avoid being torn between your daughter-in-law and your mother.

…

After the two separated, Zhang Xinrong went straight home.

But as soon as I entered the door, I heard angry curses coming from inside.

"You idiot! How can you file a divorce?"

Zhu Lai Di glared at Zhang Xinrong angrily, as if he had done something extremely stupid.

But Zhang Xinrong's face showed no expression, he just asked back calmly.

"Mom, you forced me to get a divorce. Why are you unhappy when I listened to you?"

"How can it be the same?" Zhu Lai Di was going crazy!

Is he a fool?

Wang Chunmei is now a worker and receives a salary every month.

Even if you have an extra ten or twenty dollars a month, you can buy a lot of things!

Zhang Xinrong said nothing, just stared at her violent appearance.

It's like watching a farce that has nothing to do with me.

"Go and withdraw your divorce report! I won't let you get a divorce. Do you hear me?"

Hearing this, Zhang Xinrong just felt sad and ridiculous.

"Divorce reporting is no joke. How can you just file it and withdraw it? No one will bother you at home anymore, and you won't have to curse people every day. Isn't that great?"

"What a bullshit! I've heard that Wang Chunmei's salary is 15 yuan, and after becoming a regular employee, it will be 25 yuan. With so much money, if she doesn't take it home to support my grandson, where else does she want to spend it?"

As expected, Zhang Xinrong didn't feel disappointed at all.

"Since I was promoted to company commander, I have given you 30 yuan every month. This money can support a family in the city, but look at what my wife and children are wearing? They are all tattered clothes. Even the poorest families in the village don't wear such clothes!"

The more Zhang Xinrong talked, the more he felt that he was not a human being in the past.

He didn't care at all about how Wang Chunmei and the child lived. He just deceived himself into thinking that he had fulfilled his obligation by giving them the money.

She didn't forgive him, and that was what he deserved.

When Zhu Lai Di met Zhang Xinrong's dark eyes, she felt extremely guilty for a moment.

Averting her eyes, she said in a cold voice: "Anyway, I don't agree with your divorce. If you divorce, I will not acknowledge you as my son!"

Hearing this, Zhang Xinrong finally laughed out loud.

"Mom, look me in the eye and tell me, am I really your biological son? How could you torture me like this?"

If he doesn’t get divorced, she won’t acknowledge him as her son. Even if he gets divorced, she won’t acknowledge him as her son!

It was as if he was just a tool without emotions and could only be manipulated by her.

"You...what nonsense are you talking about? You are not my biological son, how could I raise you to this age?"

"Hehehe...If you didn't raise me, who would cook for you? Who would wash your clothes? Who would give you money? You said I was your only son, but from childhood to adulthood, I have lived the life of a farmhand. How many times have I wanted to ask you, am I really your biological son?"

Zhang Xinrong stared at her without blinking, as if he wanted to find some clues from her face!

But Zhu Lai Di jumped up as if her tail was stepped on!

"You are rebelling! I raised you up, and now that you have grown up, you don't acknowledge me as your mother? I will report you to the army! I will have you expelled!"

But Zhang Xinrong remained indifferent.

"Then go ahead. It's a good opportunity for us to go back home together. I may not have much else, but I still have some strength. I can earn a lot of work points at the end of the year, and I'm sure I'll get a lot of sweet potatoes. If we eat sparingly, our family of four won't starve to death in a year."

After hearing this, Zhu Lai Di, who was originally threatening to sue him, gave up immediately.

What's the point of him returning home if he doesn't join the army?

Who wants to eat burnt sweet potatoes all the time?

She wants to eat meat, eggs, and fish. Now that he is no longer a soldier, what will she eat?

Seeing her retreat, Zhang Xinrong was filled with sadness.

In the end, he didn't say anything else and just turned around and walked out.
