Chapter 284: Divorce at Worst Case
Zhong Meixian sighed when she heard this, "You and mom have the same idea!"
"That's what I thought too!"
"Who knows what kind of temper he has behind closed doors?"
"But looking at it now, it's pretty good, except... I'm afraid her mother-in-law and father-in-law are not easy to get along with. And I think her mother-in-law is also very young. If it's hard to get along with her, Shu He will have to suffer under her for the rest of her life."
Wen Tang slapped his thigh and said, "What are you afraid of? The worst that can happen is a divorce."
Wen Tang said it straightforwardly, but Zhong Meixian didn't dare to be so straightforward, "If we get divorced..."
"Just follow me to the city after the divorce, what are you afraid of?"
"This world cannot survive without one person."
"Besides, we'll see how they behave in the future. If they are sincere in their proposal, we can consider letting Shu He marry them. Otherwise, we'll just let them go."
"That's right, they didn't come to the door."
Having said that, when lying in bed at night, Zhong Meixian brought up this matter again with Gu Juyuan.
After listening to this, Gu Juyuan turned over twice, and finally just said, "If they really want to, Shuhe has no objection, so it's fine. After all, it's not us who want to marry into their family, it's them who want to marry us. If something happens at that time, we won't be inferior to them."
Zhong Meixian just said "hmm".
During the few days that Wen Tang was at home, he made some arrangements for raw materials such as goat's milk, soapberry, and clams. He got them from Zhong Meixian and started purchasing them!
The sign of the commune is still there.
Any brigade that has them can come and sell them.
Of course, this also includes people from our brigade.
The first person who came the day after the news was released was actually Lin Guangqian. He carried a basket of processed clam shells and a snakeskin bag of soapberries.
Wen Tang confirmed the quality and asked Gu Juyuan to give him three cents in change.
Lin Guangqian left with some gratitude.
After that, more and more people came to sell.
Some people got more, some got less, but overall, it was more than what Zhong Meixian got alone.
The extra ones can be kept in stock for later use.
After dealing with this matter, Wen Tang went back to her parents' home again.
The Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon, so Wen Tang bought some things and went back to visit.
When she arrived at the Wen family, everyone in the family had gone to work in the fields, and only seven-year-old Wen Yan was at home taking care of her younger brothers and sisters.
Seeing her coming, he immediately opened the gate happily and said, "Auntie, you are here."
Wen Tang pushed his bicycle into the yard, "Well, your grandfather, where is your grandmother?"
"He's going down to the ground!"
"Then help me call them back."
"Yeah," Wen Yan responded, turned around and ran away.
After Wen Tang parked the bicycle, he took down the stairs with the things he bought and distributed candy to each child.
As soon as the sugar was divided, Wen Yan pulled He Suihua back.
He Suihua's face fell when she saw Wen Tang's flat belly.
"Why buy so much candy? Why don't you save the money?"
Wen Yan had just stretched out his hand, and the candy hadn't even reached his hand yet, when He Suihua said this.
Wen Yan said quickly, "Aunt, please give me some quickly, or my grandma won't let you share anymore."
He Suihua was so angry that she glared at him.
Wen Yan was not afraid at all, she was just looking forward to her share of candy.
Wen Tang grabbed two handfuls for him, and Wen Yan grinned happily, "Aunt, you are so nice, you are much better than my grandma."
He Suihua cursed directly, "Fuck you, I'll slap you in the face, do you believe it?"
Wen Yan ignored her and went to show off the candy to his younger brothers and sisters.
He Suihua took all the things from Wen Tang's hand. "Buy, buy, buy. Just buy," He Suihua said. She felt her hair was turning white with worry. "How can you still buy things?"
"You've been married for three years, and you haven't even gotten pregnant yet. And you're still spending other people's money all day. Who would want to live with you?"
"You really want to be driven back home, don't you?"
As He Suihua was talking, she had already opened the door of their room and brought all the things Wen Tang bought into the room. When she turned around, she found Wen Tang squatting at the door and asking Wen Yan for candy.
"No, you ignored my words, didn't you?"
Wen Tang peeled the candy and put it in his mouth, "Well, I'll eat some candy, which will make me feel more energetic, so you won't have to scold me for being weak."
He Suihua wanted to scold her in the first place, and after repeating her words again in her mouth, she wanted to scold her even more.
He stepped out of the door, picked up the broom at the door, and asked, "You want to piss me off to death, right?"
Wen Tang quickly stood up and raised his hand to stop He Suihua from doing the next move. "Do you still want your two sons' jobs?"
"About going to the city for work?"
"Um!"
"Are you here to find your two brothers to work in the city?"
"Um!"
"When are you going?"
"I'm leaving in two days. Let my brother and the others go with me."
He Suihua immediately said, "Then you should be more content. Look, you haven't been pregnant for three years, and your family has even found jobs in the city for your two brothers. If you leave this family, where can you find such a good in-law family?"
He Suihua sighed and said, "Forget it, just follow me."
"Um?"
"come over!"
Wen Tang followed her, and then He Suihua pulled out a package from the cupboard. As soon as he took it out, Wen Tang smelled a strong smell of medicine.
Sure enough, when He Suihua opened it, she found several prescriptions of Chinese medicine.
He Suihua opened it and showed it to Wen Tang as if she was presenting a treasure. "This is the frog your father and I caught at night during the summer. We asked a doctor to process it and mix it with this Chinese medicine. If you boil it and drink it, you will definitely get pregnant."
Wen Tang couldn't help hiccuping again, "Mom," Wen Tang waved his hand, "We've seen a doctor, and the doctor said there's nothing wrong with our bodies."
“Folk remedies can cure serious illnesses,” He Suihua insisted.
Wen Tang waved his hand, "No, no, no, the doctor in the city said that mood also affects conception."
Without giving He Suihua a chance to speak, Wen Tang spoke up, "Do you think you know more than the doctors in the city?"
He Suihua stopped talking.
Wen Tang asked again, "Do you think the doctors in the big hospitals in the city are not as good as the barefoot doctors in the countryside?"
He Suihua still didn't say anything.
Wen Tang continued, "The doctors in the city are all intellectuals. They have read more books than you have eaten salt."
He Suihua did not refute this, because people nowadays generally respect scholars.
Especially those who are good at reading.
Wen Tang also said, "The doctor also said that what you said has a great impact on our body."
"Especially these folk Chinese medicines, you can't drink them. Drinking them will have a great impact on your body."
"Did the doctor say this or did you say this?" He Suihua finally spoke.
Wen Tang was not afraid. "If you don't believe it, just go and ask."
He Suihua hugged the medicine and said sadly, "What you said sounds good, but you just can't get pregnant..."
Wen Tang waved his hand and said, "The Gu family is not in a hurry, why are you in a hurry?"
He Suihua said, "Tsk, why aren't you in a hurry?"
"They only have one son. It would be strange if they weren't anxious."
"If I'm so anxious that I can't sleep at night, my hair will turn white."
Wen Tang said, "I couldn't sleep at night so I took a night shift job. My hair turned white. Is it because of my age? Is it a normal physiological phenomenon?"
He Suihua: "..."
Seeing that He Suihua was about to take off her shoes again, Wen Tang said the same thing, "Your son's work..."
