Chapter 092 Chapter 92 Divorce

Auntie Wang San looked over in disbelief, thinking that her daughter-in-law must have gone insane, and scolded her, "You must have bumped into something dirty, what nonsense are you talking about in the middle of the night!"

Liu Jianhua summoned up his courage and repeated, "I am serious, I want a divorce!"

Before he finished speaking, Auntie Wang San slapped him in the face. Lin Yue quickly blocked the blow and shouted at Zhang Shouxin who was standing beside him: "Zhang Shouxin, your wife and mother are about to fight, why are you still standing there without moving!"

Zhang Shouxin put his hands in his sleeves and turned his face away impatiently. Liu Jianhua smiled bitterly, pulled Lin Yue and said, "Xiao Yue'er, can I go to your house tonight and sleep for a night? I really can't live in this house anymore. I worry every day whether they will harm me and the baby in my belly while I am asleep."

Lin Yue didn't expect the situation to be so serious. She quickly agreed, "Okay, let's go now!"

Auntie Wang San suddenly blocked the doorway and said, "Don't leave! My daughter-in-law, why are you so angry even though you're pregnant? You don't even like it when I say a few words to you, and you keep talking about divorce! Whose daughter-in-law is like you?"

Perhaps she felt that her tone was a little harsh, so she softened her expression and said earnestly, "I am doing this for your own good. I have already asked someone to calculate it. The child in your belly has bad luck in his fate. It will bring bad luck to your relatives and will not be good for your brothers and sisters. I kindly asked someone to help you resolve the bad luck. It would be fine if you didn't understand my painstaking efforts, but why do you blame me?"

Before Liu Jianhua could figure out how to refute, Lin Yue asked first, "Hey? The child hasn't been born yet, and the birth chart hasn't even been determined yet, so how come you've figured out the fate?"

Auntie Wang San glanced at her with disdain, "You don't understand the witch's magic!"

"I don't understand, but I know these feudal superstitions are all lies!"

"What nonsense are you talking about? Our village must..."

"You are blessed by the Snake Goddess, right? That's true, but with the Snake Goddess here, what messy thing dares to mess with you? What's more, he is a person with bad luck in his life. The Snake Goddess will never let such an evil thing be reborn in our Xiaotian Village!"

The people watching the excitement from behind saw that the two were arguing so fiercely that they all stood there and refused to leave. When they heard what Lin Yue said, they thought it made a lot of sense, and some even clapped and said "good!"

Everyone in the room was startled by this man and cursed, "Do you think this is a big show?" Auntie Wang San couldn't afford to lose face with this man, so she chased him out and said, "Everyone, go away! Why are you all here in my house at this late hour?"

Lin Yue took the opportunity to pull Liu Jianhua along and followed the crowd out. Auntie Wang suddenly grabbed Liu Jianhua's arm and said anxiously, "Where are you taking my daughter-in-law? She is already pregnant, will you be responsible if something goes wrong?"

Zhang Shouxin suddenly said, "It's getting late. Let's go back to bed first. We can talk tomorrow if there's anything else."

Lin Yue held Liu Jianhua's hand tightly and said soothingly, "It's okay. Let's go to my house first and talk about other things after this night."

Liu Jianhua was afraid that she would cause trouble for Lin Yue, and had already begun to hesitate. But after hearing Zhang Shouxin's words, she immediately made up her mind. She and Lin Yue nodded, struggled to break free from her mother-in-law's control, and followed Lin Yue away.

Zhang Yuandong and the security team had just received the news that the person had been found, and rushed to the door. Lin Yue pulled Zhang Yuandong's sleeve and took him home together.

Tonight was destined not to be a peaceful night. The incident was too serious. Almost one-third of the young people in the village participated in the search. The news that Liu Jianhua was going to divorce spread quickly. Many people lit kerosene lamps in their homes and listened attentively to the news.

When Aunt Su rushed to Lin Yue's house, Liu Jianhua was leaning on Lin Yue and crying. It was not the first time that her husband's family had asked a witch to come to her house. During this time, she not only had to drink magic water, but also had to strip naked in front of the witch, let a stranger check her stomach, and endure all kinds of "treatments". The grievances she suffered could not be explained in a few simple words.

As a husband, Zhang Shouxin would only advise her to be patient at the beginning. But as time went on, he thought that she was ignorant and did not appreciate the efforts of her family members. His attitude towards her became worse and worse, as if her pregnancy was something that angered God and everyone.

Lin Yue silently patted Liu Jianhua's back and listened to her vent quietly.

When she first came to this world, she had a very good impression of Auntie Wang. Although she was not very good at doing things, she was also very enthusiastic. Liu Jianhua and Zhang Shouxin had always had a good relationship and had not had any conflicts because of the lack of children. Unexpectedly, Liu Jianhua was now pregnant, and more and more conflicts arose.

It can also be said that since Zhang Xiaohui's accident, the behavior of this family has become more and more unpleasant. It may be because they lost the biggest source of income in the family, or more likely because they care too much about the gossips in the village. Anyway, this family almost vented all their resentment on Liu Jianhua. They believed that what Zhang Xiaohui said would come true, and they tried every means to find someone to change their fate.

Lin Yue recalled a saying he had often heard in his previous life: A person's character is revealed at the highest point, and his nature is revealed at the lowest point. When people are in adversity, they will always reveal some unexpected qualities.

When Aunt Su arrived, Liu Jianhua had just finished crying. As soon as she arrived, several people knew what she was here for.

Liu Jianhua said calmly, "Auntie, you came at the right time. I was planning to visit you at your house tomorrow. I want a divorce. Please help me get a divorce certificate!"

Aunt Su held Liu Jianhua's hand and comforted him, "Good boy, I know you've been wronged. Your mother-in-law is really crazy, how could she abuse you like this! She knows who that witch Liu is, and she dares to believe what she says! Don't be angry, anger is harmful to your health. You are still pregnant, don't get angry and hurt your body."

Liu Jianhua wiped her tears and just smiled without saying anything. Her mother-in-law used to be nice to her because she had never disobeyed her. Now that Liu Jianhua didn't follow her wishes, she would naturally not be as kind and cheerful as before.

Aunt Su also felt that Aunt Wang's family was going too far, but she didn't think she really wanted a divorce. She thought Liu Jianhua was just being wronged and feeling upset, so he just wanted to make a scene.

She continued to persuade him, "You can stay at Xiaoyue'er's house tonight. Your uncle Zhiqiang and Secretary Liu have gone to your house to persuade your parents-in-law. Tomorrow, let that bastard Shouxin come to give you compensation and apology!"

Liu Jianhua looked at Aunt Su steadily and repeated, "Aunt, I want a divorce. Please help me get a divorce certificate!"

Aunt Su was speechless for a long time. She relaxed and said, "Shou Xin's wife, I know you have been wronged. You are a good child. You are not really sad and can't say such words. But have you ever thought that you are angry now and say such careless words. How can it hurt the relationship between the young couple!"

She still didn't believe that Liu Jianhua really wanted a divorce. But it was also true that Liu Jianhua was a cowardly person with no strong opinions. She was also a famous daughter-in-law who obeyed her mother-in-law. If he suddenly said he wanted a divorce, no one would believe it.

Liu Jianhua's face was filled with tears again, and he said slowly: "Auntie, you don't know, my parents-in-law and Zhang Shouxin listened to my sister-in-law and believed that this baby is a concubine, and I will never be able to have children again. They all want to abort the baby in my belly. If I don't get a divorce, I won't be able to keep the baby!"

Aunt Su's eyes widened. "What does this have to do with Zhang Xiaohui? Wasn't she arrested?"

Liu Jianhua covered his eyes and gritted his teeth as he said, "She said that before she was arrested. My parents-in-law are crazy and believe everything she says. Auntie, please don't try to persuade me. I am determined to divorce him and no one can persuade me! If things really get out of hand, I will report this to the county and none of us will be spared!"

Aunt Su knew that Zhang Xiaohui was arrested, and there must be something behind it. Seeing that the matter was related to Zhang Xiaohui, she opened her mouth wide, thinking for a long time and didn't know what to say. She said a few symbolic words of comfort and left in a hurry.

That night, many people in Xiaotian Village did not sleep well. However, this did not include Aunt Wang San's family. They and Aunt Su had the same idea at the beginning, thinking that Liu Jianhua was just talking in anger. She was still pregnant, so how could he divorce her just like that? It was not until the next day that they realized that things were not as they imagined.

The next morning, Aunt Su, with two big bags under her eyes, pushed her husband up in a bad temper and urged him, "Don't sleep! Let's discuss the divorce of Zhang Shouxin and his wife!"

Zhang Zhiqiang turned over impatiently and muttered, "They just had a quarrel and made a little noise, how come it's considered a divorce?"

Aunt Su didn't think so: "You listened to Zhang Zhiye's family's words last night. Did they tell you why they were so sure that Shou Xin's wife was pregnant with a girl and insisted on finding someone to change her gender? They definitely didn't tell you the truth!"

Zhang Zhiqiang was still lying on the kang, looking indifferent. "What's there to ask? It's just you old women who always do whatever you want. All you do is talk nonsense all day long."

Aunt Su pinched him hard and said, "Get the hell out of here! I tell you, this family is crazy. They believed what Zhang Xiaohui said and are sure that Shouxin's wife will never give birth to a son. That's why they are making trouble for me! Shouxin's wife is determined to get a divorce. If this gets out of hand, our village will suffer!"

Zhang Zhiqiang jumped up and asked in disbelief: "A little girl just said something and they really believed it? This family must be crazy!"

Aunt Su sneered, "I asked my daughter-in-law last night, and it's not the first time that their family has gone crazy. If it continues like this, someone might get killed! Go and call that bastard Zhang Shouxin. I think we should all go directly to Yuandong's house, and there's no need to look for another place! Yuandong is back, so we can also ask him what he thinks about this matter."

Zhang Shouxin received the message, pursed his lips tightly, and said impatiently: "Don't you want a divorce? It's only been one night, and you can't hold on anymore?"

Auntie Wang San also said, "That's right. If I had known this would happen, why would I have asked you to pick her up yesterday? I think she was just being naughty!"

Zhang Shouliang, who came to report the news, said quickly, "No, auntie, my mother told me to let Brother Shouxin go to my brother Yuandong's house to discuss the divorce! Brother Shouxin, hurry up, my parents are here!"

After saying that, he skipped away, leaving the family of four lying on the kang with their eyes wide open, looking at each other in disbelief.
