Chapter 203: Forcing Li Chengyong to Divorce His Wife
Li Chengyong and Feng Mengru are getting married today. Baoya and the other kids got up before dawn and have been busy all day.
At night, they didn't even have time to eat dinner and just fell asleep one after another.
The next morning, Baoya was awakened by another loud noise.
Even though they had moved to a new house and were living on the second floor, the noise outside was no less than when they lived in the bungalow.
Baoya got up from the bed in a daze, and in a trance she thought that the Chen family's toilet at the back door had exploded again, or that Zhou Cuihua was doing something naughty.
It wasn't until there was a knock on her door that she woke up instantly.
Zhou Cuihua and Chen Chengcai are no longer in Feishui Village. They will not cause any more trouble, and the Chen family’s toilet will not explode.
"Baoya! Baoya, get up quickly! Something happened to the Li family!"
Yunyue's voice was heard outside the door.
Baoya threw off the quilt and got out of bed, then ran over to open the door for Yunyue: "What's wrong? It's so early in the morning."
"Come quickly, you'll know when you get there!" Yun Yue said anxiously.
Baoya quickly put on her clothes and shoes and went downstairs. Yunhua, who was standing at the stairs, kindly handed her a fried dough stick wrapped in oil paper. The four children then ran out to watch the fun.
In fact, what Baoya didn't notice was that Zhao Zhilan and Wang Cailian were not at home. Her parents went to the shop in town early in the morning, and only her uncle, second uncle, and second aunt were at home.
Yunyue pulled her, Yun Chenglu and Yunhua followed behind, and they ran all the way to Li Chengyong's house.
Baoya vaguely felt that something was wrong. Brother Cheng Yong and Sister Meng Ru had just gotten married yesterday. It was so early in the morning. Could it be that...
Sure enough, there were already a lot of people gathered at the door of Li Chengyong's house, even Liu Lizheng came.
"Li Chengyong, you must divorce her today!" Zhang Xiuer's angry voice rang out.
"That's impossible! I just married her yesterday!" Li Chengyong shouted in a loud voice.
"You...is your last name still Li?! You two have only been married for one day, and you're already speaking for her?!"
Judging from Zhang Xiuer's intermittent voice, she must be very angry.
Yunyue pulled Baoya out of the crowd, picked a nice corner, and stood there to watch the show.
Yunyue had been here for a long time, and Baoya just came over and still didn't understand what was going on.
She asked, "Fourth sister, what's going on? Why is Aunt Zhang forcing Brother Cheng Yong to divorce Sister Meng Ru?"
"Ahem," Yunyue coughed lightly, leaned close to Baoya's ear, and whispered, "Because, Sister Mengru had her hysterical attack again yesterday."
Baoya suddenly felt something was wrong: "Could it be Aunt Zhang's house..."
"Yes, she set fire to Aunt Zhang's barn in her sleep last night."
Baoya: ...
She remembered that when Sister Mengru was about to get married for the first time, she burned down the man’s family’s woodshed.
"Hey, the Li family raised two pigs, and they gave birth to a litter of piglets. I heard that the two older pigs ran away and were found, and the younger piglets were roasted."
Yunyue said this with a look of regret, but Baoya couldn't help licking her pink little lips.
Roasted piglets should be delicious, right?
"Li Chengyong, I am your brother and your elder! Today, not only do you have to divorce her, you also have to compensate our family with money!" Li Fugui held a hoe in his hand, with a ferocious look on his face.
That was a whole litter of piglets! The two older ones were fine, but they were frightened and couldn't eat, so they probably lost weight.
The barn burned down and a litter of piglets died. How much money did he lose?
That is more than Feng Mengru’s dowry can provide!
Li Chengyong looked at Zhang Xiuer and Li Fugui standing in front of him. Yesterday, the two of them had presided over his wedding with a smile on their faces.
He gritted his teeth and protected Feng Mengru behind him: "No stop! I'll pay whatever compensation you owe me!"
"Hey, you want to pay? What can you offer? Can you afford it?" Zhang Xiuer raised her shrill voice and rolled her eyes at Li Chengyong.
Li Chengyong was hit by her words. His scarred face turned red and he said nothing.
He really had no money, and now he earned some money by doing some work in the Yun family.
Zhang Xiuer was about to be proud when Feng Mengru, who was protected by Li Chengyong, spoke up: "Brother Li, sister-in-law, let me say something."
"You two went to my house to propose marriage in person, didn't you? I didn't hide my illness from you at the time. My parents told you everything clearly. You took the initiative to agree on Cheng Yong's behalf, but Cheng Yong didn't know about it. I told him later."
"Now that this has happened, no one wants it to happen, but I'm marrying Cheng Yong, not you two. You want to divorce me just like that? Not only will Cheng Yong disagree, I won't agree either!"
"Hey, you...you..." Zhang Xiuer was choked and speechless.
"Sister-in-law, I'm not unreasonable. I burned down your barn, so I'll compensate you. But if you want Cheng Yong to divorce me, I can't."
Feng Mengru's words were well-reasoned and even Liu Lizheng nodded.
But Zhang Xiuer and Li Chengyong refused to accept it. Today their animal shed was burned, tomorrow their woodshed, and the day after that their wing rooms and the back house were burned. How could they live like that?
Besides, they knew about Feng Mengru's problem for sure. The old Feng couple had told them everything, clearly and without hiding anything.
At that time, they were just greedy for the ten taels of silver given by others, and they were lucky enough to think that even if Feng Mengru had this problem, it was Li Chengyong who married, and it was Li Chengyong who was troubled, and it had nothing to do with them!
Who could have thought that on the first night of Feng Mengru's marriage, she ran from the east end of the village to the west end and burned down their barn!
Isn’t it infuriating?
"No! We must divorce!" Zhang Xiu'er was very determined. "Cheng Yong, I think she has bad intentions! What hysteria? Maybe she's just pretending!"
"Or else, why did she run to our house and burn down the barn while she was asleep? Why didn't she burn down someone else's?!"
"I don't know about that either," Li Chengyong said honestly, "but sister-in-law, why don't you think about it? If you did it on purpose, what good will it do her?"
"Besides, why did she choose to burn your house and not others? We have a big east end and a big west end, so why did she choose to burn yours?"
Zhang Xiuer: ...
She was speechless after being asked by Li Chengyong, and secretly glanced at Li Fugui next to her. Both of them felt a little guilty.
No way, no way, could Feng Mengru guess what they were thinking?
Knowing that the two of them were eyeing her dowry, she would come over and deal with them even in her dreams?
But this idea only crossed their minds once before being rejected by both of them.
Feng Mengru is just an ordinary person, this is impossible.
Li Fugui poked the hoe in his hand and said sternly, "Anyway, I'm saying this. Either you divorce Feng Mengru today, or your sister-in-law and I will sever all ties with you!"
