Chapter 207 Divorce
After the two sides reached an agreement, Li Yue'e said, "I'll take Xiaolan's things back first, and we'll meet at the commune tomorrow morning."
Fang Chunfang sneered, "Jingming, go and help pack."
Yang Jingming sat motionless, with tears in his eyes. Why did he suddenly have to get a divorce? It's not like the family affairs can't be solved. Why are they forcing him like this?
"I won't get a divorce." Yang Jingming said.
"We raised you to this age, and you want to watch your father die?" Fang Chunfang asked hatefully.
This blockhead, can't he see that his wife's heart is no longer with him? But seeing her son's appearance, she couldn't bring it up for the time being. She could only talk to him slowly later. Now it was important to rescue Old Yang.
Yang Jingming hung his head and said nothing. Seeing him like that, Fang Chunfang stood up and went to pack up with Li Yue'e.
Lu Xiaolan took away the valuables when she went back, leaving only clothes and shoes. Li Yue'e took a big bag and packed up the rest and took them away.
Fang Chunfang watched coldly, and when she saw that Li Yue'e did not take anything she shouldn't, she snorted and left.
The next day, Lu Changzheng and Li Yue'e accompanied Lu Xiaolan to the commune office to get a divorce from Yang Jingming.
Yang Jingming looked like he had lost his parents, and looked at Lu Xiaolan hesitantly, but with Fang Chunfang watching, he finally signed.
Forget it! Rescue his father first, and then remarry Xiaolan later. As long as they have each other in their hearts, no matter how big the obstacles are, they are not a problem.
Lu Xiaolan did not expect it to be so smooth. She was really relieved when she got the divorce certificate with the seal.
Finally divorced! In the future, I will live a good life alone, be filial to my parents and grandfather, and remember my third brother and his wife.
When leaving, Fang Chunfang said coldly: "Remember what you said yesterday."
Lu Changzheng nodded, "He will be back tomorrow."

During the busy autumn harvest, the Lujia Village team had a new topic of conversation after dinner. That is, the secretary's daughter got divorced and returned to her parents' home. From time to time, the aunts in the fields spread gossip.
"Tell me, how could the branch secretary agree to divorce? His son-in-law has such good conditions, he is tall and handsome, he is also a cadre of the commune, he is also very kind, he said hello to me last time he saw me."
"That's right, such a son-in-law who is so hard to find is actually divorced. If it is my daughter, I will tie her up and take her back."
"It's really shameful, there has never been a divorce in our brigade. If my daughter dared to come home, I would break her legs."
"Do you think that Lu Xiaolan has some problems and was divorced by the man?" Someone whispered.
"Look, her third brother got married later than her, and now he has two children, but Lu Xiaolan is still pregnant."
After hearing this, several people thought it was really possible. Which family would want a hen that doesn't lay eggs?
"Don't talk nonsense. It was the old branch secretary who let her go. The man's father committed a crime. You know the old branch secretary, he can't stand any sand in his eyes." An auntie who was close to Li Yue'e hurriedly said.
Li Yue'e was also very concerned about her daughter's reputation. That day, she found a few aunties who were close to her and cried to them, asking them to help explain when they were gossiping in the brigade.
"Criminal? What crime?"
"The man's father worked at the grain station. He was said to have mixed sand into the grain and was caught. Isn't this harming people? Everyone was hungry, and you mixed sand into the grain. When the old branch secretary knew about the kind of people your in-laws were, he immediately asked Lu Xiaolan to choose, either divorce or sever ties."
"Lu Xiaolan is a filial daughter, so we can only divorce."
"Why did you mix sand into the grain?" Some people didn't react.
"You stupid old woman, everyone buys grain by the kilogram, and if you mixed sand into the grain, then the extra grain will belong to him, right?"
"Oh, isn't that fleecing socialism, corruption? You really can't get along with a family like that."
The ladies all agreed.
I don’t know what everyone is thinking in their hearts, but on the surface, they are still disgusted and disgusted by this kind of corruption and theft.
"The old branch secretary was right to do this, but it's a pity for Lu Xiaolan. She was such a good girl, but now she's married for the second time. I'm afraid she will have to marry a widower from now on." "That's
right. So you really have to be careful when it comes to marriage, otherwise it will really ruin the girl's life. Li Yue'e is very smart, how could she not see it at the time?"
"Lu Xiaolan was the one who chose the partner herself. Besides, it's impossible for him to publicize his corruption. We ordinary people, who can see that?"
"Then Lu Xiaolan has been married for so long, she should have known about it, right? Why did she ask for a divorce now that something happened?" Some people were thinking, this old branch secretary...it seemed that he was not so upright.
"The man has connections above him, and he has been keeping the secret. Lu Xiaolan found out what happened when her father-in-law was arrested and she returned to her parents' home for help. Lu Changzheng felt sorry for his sister, so he went to the county to find someone and found out everything."
"The old branch secretary is an old revolutionary, and Lu Changzheng is a high-ranking military officer. How could he marry such a man? Lu Xiaolan had no choice but to get a divorce."
"It is said that he has connections above him, and he will be released in two days."
"Then why get a divorce if the man has been released?" Isn't this ruining the girl's life?
"You don't understand. People like this will have their reckonings sooner or later. Why don't you leave now while you can still get away? Or wait until the whole family is dragged into the water before leaving?"
"If it were me, I would let the daughter-in-law and the aunt separate the family and live alone." The old branch secretary is still too inflexible.
"There is only one son, how can the family be divided?"
"That's better than letting the daughter-in-law divorce. How can she get married in the future? Which good family will marry a divorced woman?"
...
Li Cuihua worked while listening to everyone's discussions, and her heart was simply filled with joy.
She thought she would be suppressed by Li Yue'e for the rest of her life, but she didn't expect that such a sudden turn of events would happen.
Although her two daughters-in-law did not marry as well as Lu Xiaolan, at least they lived a stable life and had children.
Unlike Li Yue'e, who was just a concubine and was loved by her parents since she was young, now she is divorced and still a hen that doesn't lay eggs.
I'm afraid she won't be able to find a good family in the future! It's
impossible to say that she will have to be a slave to her parents for the rest of her life and become an old lady.
"Don't talk about people like that. Xiaolan is pretty and has a job. She earns more than 20 yuan a month. How many people in our brigade can be like her?"
"Besides, her father is the secretary of the branch, her brothers all have jobs, and Lu Laosan is a high-ranking military officer. How can she not get married?"
"I'm afraid a lot of people are thinking about this opportunity to marry a military officer."
Seeing that Li Cuihua actually spoke well of Lu Xiaolan, everyone was very surprised, "Li Cuihua, you have changed your personality?"
When Lu Xiaolan was a lady, she helped Li Yue'e to fight against Li Cuihua.
"I'm telling the truth. Only you country women are superficial. If it were in the city, a lady with such conditions would probably have someone coming to propose marriage the next day."
Li Cuihua's words made many ladies think.
Yes! Although Lu Xiaolan is a second marriage, her parents are good. If she marries the useless girl, her parents might help her out.
Li Cuihua watched and smiled secretly.
It would be better if more people came to propose marriage.
This cracked egg has been bitten by a group of flies and will only end up being thrown away.
