Li Chenyang nodded in agreement: "Yes, and besides, we have two more children. The older one is in his second year of high school, and the younger one is in middle school; it's a crucial time for them."
The next morning, Li Chenjun found out where Chen Dashun lived, and the group went straight there.
In front of a rented house, they saw Chen Dashun about to leave, with a young woman standing next to him.
"Chen Dashun!" Li Yanhong rushed forward upon seeing this, "How can you be so shameless?"
Chen Dashun clearly hadn't expected to run into his wife's family here, and his face instantly turned deathly pale.
The young woman was also startled and hid behind Chen Dashun.
"Yan Hong, you... why are you here?" Chen Dashun stammered.
"Why are you here?" Li Chenyang walked forward with a cold face. "You've found someone else outside, do you think we can just ignore it?"
Chen Dashun then noticed that Li Chenyang and Ye Xiaoxiao had also arrived, and became even more flustered: "Big brother, sister-in-law, this... I can explain..."
"Explain what?" Li Yanhong pointed at the young woman. "Tell me, who is she?"
The young woman hid behind Chen Dashun and whispered, "Dashun already said he wants a divorce, right, Dashun?"
The woman looked to be in her early twenties, and her appearance was average. However, she was clinging to Chen Dashun's arm and acting coquettishly.
This completely ignited Li Yanhong's anger.
"What did you say?" Li Yanhong rushed forward to attack, but Ye Xiaoxiao grabbed her arm: "Yanhong, calm down!"
"Da Shun is good to me. He says you're always causing trouble, and even his parents don't let him control you."
Seeing that someone was stopping Li Yanhong, the young woman grew bolder, saying, "That's how you country people are, selfish and only thinking about money."
"Little girl, what do you know?" Ye Xiaoxiao said coldly. "They have two children. Do you know that this is a crucial time for them to start school?"
"What does it have to do with me?" the woman scoffed. "Brother Da Shun already said the kids are grown up and he doesn't need to take care of them anymore. Besides, doesn't he still give them living expenses every month?"
Hearing this, Li Chenyang trembled with rage: "Chen Dashun, are you even human? Yanhong has stayed home all these years taking care of the children and supporting their education, and you've not only found someone else outside, but you also say things like this?"
Chen Dashun was so ashamed of his words that he couldn't lift his head. After a long while, he finally said, "Brother, I...I also have my reasons. Yan Hong, she..."
"What's your predicament?" Li Chenjun interrupted him. "I brought you to the factory so you could earn money to support your family, not so you could go around messing around outside!"
"Sixth brother, you don't know," Chen Dashun suddenly became agitated, "These past few years, Yan Hong has always been causing trouble for my family. She wouldn't let me go back to see my parents when they were sick, and now my mother doesn't even acknowledge me as her son. She won't let me give any of the money I earn to the family..."
Hearing this, Li Yanhong's tears flowed even more fiercely: "Who was I doing that for? Wasn't it all for the children? Your parents were always asking us for money all those years. Our salaries weren't high to begin with, and with two children needing to go to school, where would we get extra money to give them?"
"Look at you, saying things like that again." Chen Dashun shook his head. "No matter what, they are still my parents. How can I be a son if you act like this? Xiaoyue is different. She's sensible and never cares how much money I give to the family..."
"You!" Li Yanhong was so angry she couldn't speak.
Seeing this, Ye Xiaoxiao stepped forward: "Chen Dashun, you think Yan Hong is too strict because she cares about her family. Look at you now, you're even willing to abandon your son for a woman you've only known for a short time?"
"Exactly," Li Chenyang chimed in, "Chen Yong is about to take the college entrance exam, and Chen Kun is in junior high. Are you just going to abandon them like this, father?"
Chen Dashun kept his head down and remained silent. The woman named Xiaoyue, however, persisted, "Stop lecturing me. Dashun has already said he wants a divorce; it's none of your business!"
"Shut up!" Li Chenjun snapped. "What does a little brat like you know? This is their family matter!"
Xiaoyue was startled and hid behind Chen Dashun. Chen Dashun then said, "Brother and sister-in-law, I've really made up my mind. These past few years have been too tiring; I want to change my way of life."
"Change your way of life?" Ye Xiaoxiao sneered. "You think life will be better just because you find another woman? Don't you feel guilty towards the children?"
"The children are all grown up now, and we don't need to worry about them anymore..." Chen Dashun's voice grew softer and softer.
"Bullshit!" Li Chenyang couldn't help but curse. "Chen Yong got into a top high school, do you know how expensive the tuition is? Chen Kun is in junior high now, and he'll have to go to high school later. Aren't you going to care about any of that?"
Chen Dashun was silent for a while, then suddenly said, "I can give you living expenses on time every month. As for the rest... I really can't care about that."
"You..." Li Yanhong trembled with anger, "All these years I've taken care of the housework, looked after your parents, and supported the children's education. Now that the children are grown up, you're going to abandon us?"
"Yan Hong," Chen Dashun sighed, "don't make it sound so aggrieved. You've caused me a lot of trouble over the years. You wouldn't let me go back home when my parents were sick, and you wouldn't let me send money home. You always think my family is taking advantage of us, but have you ever thought about it? I'm their son too."
"Well, you've certainly made something of yourself now," Li Chenjun sneered, "abandoning your son for a mistress. Are you even a man?"
"Look at you, you're old and ugly, how could Brother Da Shun still like you?"
Zhang Yue looked at Li Yanhong defiantly, "I'm young and beautiful, and I know how to make people happy. Unlike you, all you know is how to manage money and meddle in this and that."
