Because of Xiang Yi's situation, Brother Lu and his wife started seeing Yu Yin and the others more often.
Especially Brother Lu, who no longer focuses all his energy on his career and family. He's been contacting his parents and siblings more often and showing them more care.
Yu Yin didn't care. Whether they were brothers or friends, only by being sincere could they get along well. Since Brother Lu and the others had shown goodwill, she would just see how things went. She certainly wouldn't force herself to be unhappy.
Things can't be resolved overnight. Even though Brother Lu and his team wanted to maintain the relationship, they didn't have much time, as the hospital was busy.
In the midst of everyone's peaceful lives, Lu Shukang dropped a bombshell: he got divorced.
Yu Yin was quite surprised when she heard about this, because she didn't get along well with Wang Mengyao and didn't pay attention to their lives.
"When did this happen? Why did you get divorced?"
Sister-in-law Yu is off today, and she's spending time playing with the children and An'an.
"Come on, let's talk in your room, so the child won't hear."
"Let's go."
Yu Yin casually picked up some melon seeds and a teapot, and then asked her sister-in-law to bring a fruit platter; how could one listen to gossip without these?
"Tell me in detail, what exactly happened?"
Without being able to use her phone or watch various variety shows, even Yu Yin, who is usually a homebody, sometimes feels bored and develops a desire to listen to gossip.
“Recently, your older brother has been reflecting on himself and realized that he has neglected his parents and siblings. We go back to visit Mom and Dad whenever we have time. We often hear arguing coming from Shukang and his family’s room, and we don’t know what’s going on.”
Sister-in-law Yu took a sip of tea and continued, "A few days ago, I saw Shu Kang come back, and a while later, Wang Mengyao also came back. Not long after, I saw Wang Mengyao leave with her luggage without looking back, and she didn't stop even when the child was crying and calling after her."
Sister-in-law Lu felt that something serious had happened; it wasn't just a normal argument.
Lu Shukang was called into the house by his parents-in-law to ask what had happened and why they were arguing again.
"Wang Mengyao and I are divorced, and I have custody of the child."
Unexpectedly, Lu Shukang dropped a bombshell that exploded right above everyone's heads.
"Waaah... I want my mommy, I want my mommy..."
Lu Shukang's second son, who is quite young, was crying and hiccuping, constantly calling for his mother.
"Alright, your mother isn't coming back. Go play with your older brother and sister. If you keep making trouble, I'll punish you."
Lu Shukang yelled at the crying children, and Xiang Qing took the children to Lu Shukang's house.
"Alright, why are you getting angry with the child? What happened? Tell me quickly, why did you suddenly get a divorce?"
Mr. Lu looked at his son, who was in his thirties, with a sense of helplessness. His son had been so insistent on getting married, how could things have fallen apart halfway through? What would happen to the children? They needed their mother, they needed maternal love.
“What’s going on? In the past year, Wang Mengyao has been leaving early and coming home late, neglecting her family and children. She spends all her salary on new clothes and goes dancing all the time. No matter how I try to communicate with her, it won’t work. She just doesn’t want to live a good life anymore.”
Lu Shukang was furious. He had always liked Wang Mengyao; they were classmates, their families were close, and they were childhood sweethearts. Although he knew she liked his second brother, he hadn't given up.
Later, Wang Mengyao was sent to the countryside and had a hard time. She told him that she wanted to marry him so she could return to the city. Relying on his mother's favoritism, he insisted on marrying Wang Mengyao, not caring that she didn't have a job.
Life was good at first, but after the college entrance examination, especially after her second brother and his family came back, seeing them buy a villa and do business, Wang Mengyao couldn't stand it anymore. They separated from the family again, and she was even less willing to live a good life.
“I followed her for a while and found out she had a boyfriend, a man who drove a car. I don’t know his identity, but he looks like a rich guy. A few days ago, I caught them at a guesthouse.”
Lu Shukang rubbed his face with his hands. He also felt ashamed, but he couldn't not give his family an explanation. Even if he couldn't open his mouth, he had to say it.
"What? Wang Mengyao had an affair?"
Lu's mother screamed in surprise, her voice cracking.
"Keep your voice down, aren't you ashamed?"
Mr. Lu was furious. Not only was he getting a divorce, but this was the reason he gave. Jiang Wanling was also becoming increasingly impatient, shouting and yelling as if she wanted the neighbors to hear her.
“If the Wang family isn’t ashamed, why should I be? How did they raise their daughter? She’s like a prostitute, shameless. Do you even know what kind of people she’s with?”
Sister-in-law Yu was speechless at her mother-in-law's thought process. Was it appropriate to ask this question at this time?
"Shut up. I don't care if the Wang family is afraid of losing face, I am afraid of losing face. They have two children, do you want them to be pointed at and talked about? Let me tell you, keep your mouth shut in public."
After being warned repeatedly, Lu's mother quieted down, her face showing resentment.
"How was it resolved in the end?"
“I made Wang Mengyao write a guarantee that because of her mistakes that led to the divorce, I would have custody of the child, she would leave with nothing, and she would have to compensate me.”
Lu Shukang is no upright gentleman, so how could he let Wang Mengyao cheat on him for nothing?
"Compensation? How much was paid?"
Perhaps provoked by Yu Yin, Lu's mother became particularly sensitive about money and was also thinking about buying a big house.
"The man paid 10,000 yuan. After that, we went to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get our divorce certificates. We're free to marry and be independent now."
"Ten thousand yuan, that's not bad. How do you plan to use this money?"
Lu's mother never expected that Shu Kang could get 10,000 yuan. It was a lot; they had never seen 10,000 yuan in their entire lives.
"Mom, I have a use for this money, so you don't need to worry about it."
