Chapter 738 Let Me Make a Wish
Aunt Wang has been used to being poor since she was a child and has always been a good thrifty housekeeper. Whenever she comes across something free, no matter what it is, she will give it a try. It always pays to try.
"I thought, what a good thing! Since it doesn't cost money, I might as well give it a try."
I knew it was true!
Aunt Wang smiled wickedly, as if she had gotten a great bargain: "Guess what? Miss Yu asked me about all the messy things in my family in detail, and even told me to secretly write down that dead man's ID number and bank card number.
At that time, I was still wondering if he was trying to steal my money. But then I thought that the money would go to that dead man and he would be fed to the dogs!
Bah, bah, bah~ I'm not calling Miss Yu a dog, she is a very good person!
I thought so in my heart, and I did as she said. "
A week later, Miss Yu came to see Aunt Wang again. This time she was wearing a suit and carrying a briefcase.
"Miss Yu looks like someone who can accomplish great things, and she seems very shrewd.
This time she came back and told me that I could definitely get a divorce given my situation, and she also told me that the dead guy actually had more than 180,000 yuan in savings.
I was so angry at that time. I had been working away from home for all these years, and he had secretly saved all this money without my knowledge.
But when Miss Yu said I could take more than half of it, I immediately felt less angry.
She also told me to be patient and that the court would deal with my case soon.
Oh, and she even took out a scripture from Bodhisattva Weituo and asked me to make a wish..." Aunt Wang's eyes were full of respect as she spoke.
That's not right. Why did the style change so suddenly?
"Make a wish? How do you make a wish?" I wasn't sure if I had heard it wrong.
"I just wrote my name on it. After I wrote my name, I closed my eyes and prayed to that damn guy to give me some money!" Aunt Wang said confidently.
What is this operation?
Suddenly, an idea struck me. "Aunt Wang, what you signed is called a power of attorney, right?"
"Yes, the abbreviation is the Book of Vedic Medicine."
I:"……"
Well, it doesn’t matter what it is, as long as Aunt Wang is happy.
Miss Yu was also very resourceful. She found out that after Aunt Wang's ex-husband left, he received 150,000 yuan from the demolition of his old house. He used the money to buy a house in the county town and had a mistress living with him. The neighbors all thought they were a couple.
"Ms. Yu told me that I could get half of the house he bought in the county, and half of the savings, but he was the one who made the mistake, so I could get more.
I thought about it. His savings were earned by me, so I felt comfortable taking them. The house belonged to my parents-in-law, and his family had spent money to marry me. So I told her I didn't want the house anymore, as long as I could get back the money I earned.
Look at what simple and kind-hearted working people are!
Faced with that scumbag who still sticks to his moral bottom line, I put myself in his shoes and thought, no, if it were me, I would make him pay for it!
Aunt Wang's request was not difficult for Miss Yu at all. The court made a quick ruling on the extramarital affair and domestic violence.
Aunt Wang smiled as brightly as she talked about this incident. "Ms. Yu is really amazing. Her speech in court almost made the lawyer who helped the dead man speechless.
Not only did the judge grant me a divorce on the spot, he also gave me all his savings. I originally thought I would be satisfied if I could get half of it back, but the judge gave me all of it.
I was so excited that I almost cried. If Miss Yu hadn't stopped me, I would have kneeled down and kowtowed to the Lord of Heaven.
There are still many good people in this world. Miss Yu helped me get so much money, and I thought I should pay her some money, but she refused to pay anything and insisted that it was for charity.
Mengmeng, you said she was a good girl, but why did she fight a lawsuit for someone else for nothing?
I comforted her, "They're from a charity organization, right? Didn't they say they specialize in helping women who have experienced domestic violence? Aunt Wang, just rest assured."
Although I said this to Aunt Wang, I also felt strange in my heart. Even if it was a women's rights organization, they would not take the initiative to come to someone's house to help them get a divorce.
Forget it. Anyway, Aunt Wang wasn’t cheated, so the result was pretty good.
I took Aunt Wang's hand and said, "Aunt Wang, don't think too much. No matter what, you are free now and can live a good life with your daughter in the future. In a few years, when you become a grandmother, won't you have to take care of your daughter's baby?"
Aunt Wang smiled even brighter. "Yes, yes. With the money I got back from him this time, plus my own savings, I will buy a small house near my daughter's home after she gets married. I will help her take care of the baby and cook."
Seeing my somewhat lost expression, she hurried to comfort me, "Mengmeng, when you have a baby, I will help you take care of it."
I immediately nodded vigorously. I felt relieved to have Aunt Wang to take care of the baby.
We both tacitly ruled out the possibility of my mother taking care of the child. It’s not that we think my mother will mistreat the child, but we are a little worried about the child’s mental health.
I am different from my mother. There is no need for my children to get wet in the rain again if I have gotten wet myself.
Aunt Wang and I were chatting happily when we suddenly heard a light cough at the kitchen door. I turned around and saw my mother standing outside the door looking at us with an unnatural expression.
"I came to ask if dinner is ready. It's time to eat." She asked as if nothing had happened.
"Okay, okay, I'll serve it right away." Aunt Wang responded cheerfully, not noticing that my mother was in a bad mood.
I knew she felt uncomfortable when she saw Aunt Wang and I talking and laughing, just like when I saw her and Deng Sisi being a loving mother and filial son together before, and I felt like an outsider.
I was familiar with that feeling, but I pretended not to know and helped to set the dishes.
While eating, my father brought up my engagement again.
"Mengmeng, tell Shiqiu that your mother is well now and your engagement party can be rescheduled."
Every time the engagement is mentioned, my father is more active than me. I know he is eager to show off to his relatives and friends.
"Well, he said he'll arrange it as soon as my mom recovers. Let me confirm the date with his sister." I picked up another chicken wing.
Aunt Wang finally learned how to wrap chicken wings in paper. Now no one competes with me for the food, and I enjoy eating them especially happily.
My dad hesitated for a moment, then asked me with a flattering smile, "So what does Shiqiu say about your grandmother?"
I shrugged nonchalantly. "If you want her to come, then come on. Xiao Shiqiu said that when the time comes, let the old lady and my cousin sit farther apart. Remember to keep a close eye on the old lady and don't let them run into each other or cause any trouble."
I glanced at my dad and thought I was still a little worried, so I had to emphasize again, "There will be a lot of security at the banquet. If the old lady causes any trouble, she will definitely be kicked out.
You know, the Xiao family still has a certain influence in City A. There are media on the scene, and it's not like an engagement party in the countryside."
