Jiang Chengshi fought hard for his future. He shamelessly knelt in front of Qian Mei'e and her son and said, "Mom, brother, I was wrong. Please forgive me and help me talk to the leaders to let me stay in the army."
"Dad, Aunt, please apologize to Mom and my second brother as soon as possible."
Jiang Laotie never thought he was wrong. He couldn't bow down to his ex-wife and her son in public. "Qian Mei'e, I'll give you another chance to remarry. As long as you're honest, I'll agree to let you come back to the Jiang family. Divorce is bad for a woman's reputation. Who else would dare to marry you except me? Didn't Jiang Zhengyi always want my love? I can give him a complete family and be his father. You know, there aren't many good fathers willing to raise bastards as their own sons these days."
Widow Jiang is more flexible than Jiang Chengshi. She used to dislike Qian Mei'e and her son, but now she has to grasp this last straw. "Sister, it's my sister-in-law's fault. I won't argue with you anymore. I'll give Lao Tie to you. Please forgive me and don't ruin Chengshi's future. Even if you can only be a company commander, it's fine."
"You have raised Chengshi for more than ten years. He has long regarded you as his own mother. I believe you still have a mother-son relationship with him. You love him more than Zhengyi, don't you? Chengshi is your son. He will be filial to you in the future..."
Little did she know that Qian Mei'e had been overwhelmed by anger and resentment, especially after she learned that Jiang Chengshi had taken credit for her son's achievements and deliberately caused his disability, she could no longer control her rage.
She kicked Jiang Chengshi away and beat up Jiang Laotie and Jiang Guafu. "I have fought with your Jiang family, and you still have the nerve to ask me to recognize Jiang Chengshi? Do you think I, Qian Mei'e, am a fool? Jiang Chengshi, you really make me so disappointed. I thought I treated you well, but you harmed my son. I will beat you to death..."
"Jiang Laotie, you are a shameless old man. Only Widow Jiang cares about you. You want us to forgive you, but I will not let you go. If you want us to forgive you, then wouldn't our suffering for more than 20 years be in vain?"
Jiang Zhengyi only felt disgust towards Jiang Laotie, and was indifferent to the Jiang family's pleadings. "Jiang Laotie, you are not my father. I have grown up and don't need a father anymore. Even if I need a father, I should look for my biological father."
Jiang Chengshi was unable to persuade the mother and son, so he turned to Gu Wanwan and Fu Jingchen and begged, "Commander, Gu Zhiqing, I am willing to correct my mistakes. Please give me a chance to reform. I swear I will never do it again. I know Gan Qi has offended Gu Zhiqing. I will ask Gan Qi to kowtow and apologize to you."
"Gan Qi, come here and beg Gu Zhiqing."
Gan Qi was so angry at Jiang Chengshi's cowardice. She originally thought that she had found an officer with a promising future and could sit back and relax as the noble wife of a regiment commander. But what was the reality?
The useless Jiang Chengshi falsely claimed military merit, which is a serious crime. The army simply cannot tolerate morally corrupt criminals. It would be fine if Fu Jingchen and Gu Wanwan did not add insult to injury, but they are afraid that if they pursue the matter to the end, Jiang Chengshi will have to go to jail.
Thinking about how the marriage that I had worked so hard to get ended up being in vain, I felt so depressed and desperate.
Fortunately, she was still waiting for Jiang Chengshi to get promoted so that she could return to her parents' home in glory. However, she didn't expect that they would become the unlucky ones. She was anxious to marry Jiang Chengshi, which tied herself to the useless Jiang family and made it difficult for her to get out.
Liang Xin looked at Gan Qi's dilemma and smiled. "It's easy to get married, but it's hard to get divorced. Jiang Chengshi has nothing, but he got a wife for nothing. Do you think the Jiang family will let you go?"
"She wanted to be an official's wife and show off her power. She forced her original wife to leave and married into the Jiang family, thinking it was a good place to live. But she ended up jumping into a fire pit and couldn't get out. Jiang Chengshi is no longer an officer. Do you think he can control Ke Gongde and Qingshan Village?"
"You are a married woman, and you don't know how to behave. You deserve to work in the fields to make a living. You won't be able to hook up with anyone in the future."
Gan Qi was shocked and angry, but more confused about the future. Was it that he had to fight against the Jiang family for the rest of his life and stay in the village as a peasant?
The villagers watched the Jiang family members being beaten, and no one was willing to step forward to mediate.
"When something happens, she calls Qian Mei'e "mother". She doesn't even recognize her own mother, Widow Jiang. Jiang Chengshi is really profit-driven. It's disgusting. A few days ago, the Jiang family was so arrogant that they showed off in front of Qian Mei'e. Gan Qi is ridiculous. She did everything she could to marry a loser."
"If you ask me, Jiang Laotie deserves it. He gave up his good wife and son and chose to have an affair with his widowed sister-in-law. He treated Qian Mei'e and her son well in the beginning, but did he end up like this? The Jiang family doesn't even treat Qian Mei'e and her son as human beings."
"I was wrong before. Now I just want to say that Qian Mei'e was right to divorce. Qian Mei'e is a blessed person. She has gone through hardships before finally getting her happy ending. A blessed person will not marry into an unblessed family. Just now, Jiang Laotie was putting on airs and ordering Qian Mei'e around. Who does he think he is? A feudal local tyrant?"
"Qian Mei'e was too lenient. If it were me, I would skin the Jiang family alive, take away their military merits, slander their innocence, and harm their son. I would suck the blood of Qian Mei'e and her son. It would not be enough to kill the Jiang family 10,000 times. I would drive them all out of Xiangyang Village."
Jiang Laotie was just about to act pitiful to win the villagers' sympathy, but who would have thought that the villagers were even angrier than Qian Mei'e and were fighting for the mother and son. If the team leader hadn't stopped them, they would have rushed over and beaten them up.
Those female educated youth who were jealous of Gan Qi's good marriage are no longer envious, and all have expressions as if they are looking forward to a good show.
At this point, the situation is hopeless.
No matter how unwilling Jiang Laotie was, he finally had to accept the fact. His beloved eldest son lost his job in the army, and the family owed a foreign debt. Without the subsidy from Qian Mei'e and her son, how would the Jiang family survive?
The most urgent task is to catch the ex-wife and her son, stabilize them first, and then ask Jiang Zhengyi to give his job to his son.
"Mei'e, my wife, I was wrong..."
"Oh Zhengyi, I'm sorry. I kneel down in front of you and apologize to you. If you don't forgive me, I will kill myself to make amends for your sins..."
Gu Wanwan mercilessly exposed his thoughts, "Sister Qian, he wants to force you to die, and treat you and your son as money bags. Let me guess, the old scumbag is pretending to ask for forgiveness, and then plotting against Jiang Zhengyi and giving his salary to Jiang Chengshi, right?"
Fu Jingchen took over the conversation, "Jiang Laotie, the army is not a place where you can change positions as you wish. The army only recognizes Jiang Zhengyi. Jiang Chengshi is not capable enough to be a platoon leader."
Qian Mei'e angrily slapped the man several times, "You extorted so much money from my child's biological father and spent so much of my dowry. I will beat you to death. You want me to go back to the Jiang family? Forget it. You are a lazy person who never takes a bath or works. Whoever marries you will be unlucky. Seeing your Jiang family in decline, we mother and son will be in great trouble."
Jiang Laotie couldn't hold back his pride anymore, so he just threw a tantrum, "I don't care, Jiang Zhengyi is my son, he must take care of me in my old age!"
