"I came back to talk to my parents about something."
"Is it about your illiterate country wife?"
He Yan's mother, Su Qin, gracefully descended the stairs, wearing a crimson silk cheongsam and a white shawl.
"She should have given birth by now, I'd like to discuss with you whether we should bring her and the baby back."
He Yan loathed Ye Xiaohua. The thought of being tricked into having his child by this fat, stupid, illiterate village woman made him feel disgusted; it was the shame of his life.
But since he was already pregnant, he had no choice but to take on the responsibility.
"Oh, I was just about to tell you. I had someone go to her house a few days ago, and guess what? The Ye family is also insatiable. Ye Xiaohua ate too many hawthorns when she was a little over two months pregnant and miscarried. In order to cheat you out of your salary, she has never told us the truth."
Su Qin spoke with a hint of anger still showing on her face.
Eating hawthorns? That sounds like something that fat guy would do.
Having been married into the He family for over a year, everyone in this compound knows that He Yan's wife is a glutton. All she does is eat all day long, and she speaks rudely, is impolite, and ill-mannered, spitting and littering everywhere.
He Yan heard that Ye Xiaohua had miscarried when she was just over two months pregnant because she ate too many hawthorns, but he had never known this. Although he felt sorry for the unborn child, he thought that this might be the best outcome for him. He really couldn't bear to have a child with such a woman and live a life with her.
“Go back to the army and submit the divorce papers. You two were never a good match to begin with, so it’s better that the child is gone.”
He Ya said from the side.
When the topic of divorce came up, He Yan frowned: "Would my dad agree to my divorce from Ye Xiaohua?"
"Even if he doesn't agree, you still have to get a divorce. Otherwise, do you want to commit bigamy? Ye Xiaohua has already started going on blind dates to find a man in her hometown."
He Ya pretended to be furious and yelled at He Yan.
He Yan could hardly believe it; Ye Xiaohua was already going on blind dates even though they weren't divorced yet.
But thinking about it, it makes sense. That family is unreasonable. In order to cheat him out of his wages, he never told them the truth. If his mother hadn't sent someone to ask them, they would still be in the dark.
Although he hated Ye Xiaohua, he thought that the child in her belly was his own, so he specially came back from the Western Military Region to discuss with his family whether to bring her and the child back. He Yan now loathed Ye Xiaohua even more. This person was not only lazy and good-for-nothing, but also had a bad character.
"Let Mom handle the divorce. Just take the documents you and Ye Xiaohua signed to process it."
He Yan had a lot to do in the army and didn't want to waste time on such trivial personal matters. He did whatever his mother said and went back to the army that night.
Around 8 a.m., Ye Xiaohua was half asleep, holding her child, when she lifted her clothes to feed the baby and someone knocked on the door.
She was fully awake: "Who is it!"
She asked irritably, assuming it was a staff member from the guesthouse, since she didn't have any relatives or friends there, and it couldn't be someone else looking for her.
"I am Su Qin, He Yan's mother," the person outside the door said.
