The next day, just as the sun was rising, before Liu Chunping had time to call Liu Chuncheng over to discuss things, an accident happened first.
Liu Chuncheng had planned to deposit the money his older brother had given him into a passbook, so he asked Wang Guihong for the passbook. He had been attending a local university for the past two years, receiving state subsidies.
Despite his frugal lifestyle, he managed to save over 200 yuan, which he had intended to leave for his son Jun'an's schooling. However, when he asked Wang Guihong about it, she refused to hand over her passbook, claiming it had been lost.
Liu Chuncheng naturally wouldn't easily believe such a reason. After all, in this era, information transmission was not well developed. As long as someone went to the bank with a passbook to withdraw money, they could basically withdraw the money successfully.
He secretly thought that this was most likely done intentionally by Wang Guihong. She would most likely take the passbook back to her parents' home to subsidize her brothers.
This behavior made Liu Chuncheng feel angry and helpless. He couldn't help but ask, "Wang Guihong, Jun'an is also your biological son! I specifically left this money for his future education. As a mother, can't you think about him?"
Liu Chuncheng understood that harmony is crucial for a family. However, he couldn't understand why Wang Guihong favored her mother's family over her own children. He wondered if someone only cared about helping others but ignored the needs of their own family. How could that be considered truly kind?
"I said it was lost, believe it or not. Besides, isn't your eldest brother rich? Are you afraid he'll neglect you and your son? Why don't we send half of the two thousand yuan back home? My two younger brothers are both unmarried, and girls these days are learning to ask for money like the city girls. This is a great opportunity for them both to get married." Not only did Wang Guihong fail to recognize her mistake, she even had her eye on the two thousand yuan. She kept half, thinking she was being very conscientious.
Liu Chuncheng looked at her with a look that seemed to be filled with poison. This woman was truly hopeless, always thinking about supporting her parents, a typical brother-supporting demon. "Wang Guihong, divorce, divorce is a must. If you want to make a scene at school, go ahead. At worst, I'll just quit studying. I'll grant your wish."
Wang Guihong didn't expect Liu Chuncheng to say that and was stunned. She never thought that Liu Chuncheng would ask for a divorce from her.
Although they often argued, she always believed that Liu Chuncheng would not leave her. After all, she gave birth to a son, and she had threatened Liu Chuncheng that if he dared to divorce, she would go to his school and make trouble, making him restless. She had finally made it out of the countryside, and she absolutely did not want a divorce, and she did not want to go back.
"You are such a heartless person. Now that you got into university, you look down on me, right? Are you blinded by some vixen out there?" Wang Guihong's voice trembled a little.
"I have never liked you. I will remember all my life how you and your family plotted against me. It doesn't matter if you destroy me. At worst, we will both die together." Liu Chuncheng said gritting his teeth.
"No!" Wang Guihong screamed, "I don't agree!"
"You have no choice but to agree. We will go to the street office to apply for divorce later." Liu Chuncheng said coldly.
"You...you can't do this to me!" Wang Guihong cried and threw herself at Liu Chuncheng, hugging his legs tightly, begging bitterly: "Chuncheng, please don't! I was wrong. I won't dare to do it again. I won't send the money back. I will listen to you from now on. Please don't divorce me, okay?"
She didn't dare to go to the school to make trouble at all. If she really investigated, her family would not end up in trouble. There were many people in the village who liked Liu Chuncheng back then. It was her family who dared to plan and she was so proud that she succeeded.
Seeing that she could live a good life with her eldest brother's family, of course she couldn't give it up. She had already given enough to her family. They should fend for themselves in the future and couldn't let it affect her good life. Although Wang Guihong was a brother-supporting demon, she was also a typical egoist.
Seeing her crying so sadly, Liu Chuncheng couldn't help but feel a little sorry for her. But when he thought of her previous behavior, he hardened his heart and said, "If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have done it in the first place. If you had treated my family well, we wouldn't have come to this point today."
"Husband, I know I was wrong and I will change in the future. Please give me a chance! I will take good care of our son and be filial to our parents." Wang Guihong said in tears.
"It's too late. If you had considered Jun'an more, we wouldn't have gotten to this point." Liu Chuncheng said as he pushed her away.
Seeing that Liu Chuncheng was really determined to divorce her, Wang Guihong panicked and quickly crawled in front of him, hugged his legs and begged for mercy: "Husband, I really know I was wrong. Please forgive me this time! As long as you don't divorce me, I'm willing to do anything!"
Liu Chuncheng looked at her coldly, a hint of determination flashing in his eyes: "No need, I've made up my mind. You pack up and let's go file a report now."
"Chuncheng, don't be angry! You finally got into college, you should study hard and become a worker in the future, that's the only way to have a bright future!" Grandpa Liu and Grandma Liu came over after hearing the quarrel. They realized that this was another dispute about money.
In reality, money had been stolen from their home several times, but they hadn't made a public announcement. After all, they were both unemployed and couldn't possibly have any source of income. If they talked about it too much, it might attract the attention of someone with ulterior motives and lead to an investigation.
In reality, both of them had once been capitalists, so how could they not have some savings? It was simply that these assets were hidden. Because the situation was so tense at the time, they dared not easily sell them. It wasn't until Chunhua's condition worsened that they were forced to risk going to the black market to trade small yellow croaker for a little money to make ends meet.
