For now, Wang Sandan can only try to calm Zhang Juanjuan down. He plans to take leave tomorrow morning to visit his mother at the sanatorium to see what's wrong.
"Don't cry, little sister! Your sisters-in-law are all here to support you," Huang Yingzi tried to comfort Zhang Juanjuan.
Grandma Zhao was helped in by Jiang Jinyao.
Chu Wanfang, the oldest resident of the family compound, was also invited over.
In this situation, it's necessary to counsel and guide both individuals.
Qian Luoshui held the child, Shen Qiaoyue also held the child, and Wen Xiaoyu held Danian, coaxing Danian outside the courtyard.
Wang Sandan was also in a state of confusion, torn between his wife and his mother.
He loved his wife and did not want a divorce.
He knew that he and his mother owed Zhang Juanjuan too much.
When Grandma Zhao came in, she saw Zhang Juanjuan crying.
He glanced up at Wang Sandan.
A helpless sigh!
"That's how marriage is. You feel sweet when you get married, but after a while, there are more trivial things in life. Life can't be sweet and happy every day! You always have to go through some hardships!" As someone who has been through it all, Mrs. Zhao felt sorry for Zhang Juanjuan's situation and could understand Wang Sandan's thoughts.
"Juanjuan, try to take it easy!" Divorce won't do Zhang Juanjuan any good, and it won't do Wang Sandan any good either.
Zhang Juanjuan has suffered too much from being hurt. If she were to break up with Wang Sandan like this, it would be too good for Wang Sandan.
Wang Sandan walked up to Zhang Juanjuan, took her hand, and said, "Wife, I really know I was wrong. I will definitely handle this matter properly. Please believe me, okay?"
Zhang Juanjuan didn't even glance at Wang Sandan.
Chu Wanfang glanced at the situation, but she didn't know what to say.
"San Dan, listen to your aunt, you go out first and take care of your mother's matter. We'll keep an eye on your wife and try to persuade her properly," Chu Wanfang said to Wang San Dan.
Wang Sandan hesitated, looking at everyone uncertainly.
"San Dan, when your mother goes to the sanatorium, pack some of her clothes and take them there. See what the environment is like there. Don't let anyone see them and say anything bad about you."
Grandma Zhao also told Wang Sandan to go and take care of his mother first.
Wang Sandan looked at Zhang Juanjuan with concern, then looked at everyone and said, "Thank you all for your help."
"Go."
After packing his luggage, Wang Sandan glanced at Zhang Juanjuan in the room with some unease before leaving.
After Wang Sandan left, Old Mrs. Zhao and Chu Wanfang exchanged a glance.
“Juanjuan, I know you’re too emotional right now and won’t listen to any advice!” Chu Wanfang held Zhang Juanjuan’s hand and explained gently, “Juanjuan, listen to your aunt, we can’t get a divorce.”
"Why, Auntie? Look how Wang Sandan's mother is treating me!" Zhang Juanjuan asked Chu Wanfang anxiously.
"Listen to your aunt first," Chu Wanfang said softly. "Your divorce will only make Wang Sandan feel sad and guilty for a while. Even if he gives you this much money every month, will you feel good about it?"
“My child! Losing your fertility is not your fault, it’s the Wang family’s fault, it’s the harm that Wang San Dan’s mother caused you. You can get a divorce, and he will forgive his mother one day, but the harm you’ve done is already too deep to get over!” Old Mrs. Zhao quickly explained.
With elders present, Shen Qiaoyue felt it inappropriate to speak and listened attentively from the side.
Chu Wanfang continued, "If you don't divorce him, make Wang Sandan make a promise to the child. With so many of us here, he won't dare to do anything to you anymore. Find an opportunity to let Wang Sandan take control of the family finances. As long as he sees your face every day, he will live with guilt for the rest of his life. He won't dare to treat you badly and will always hate his mother. It was his mother who made him lose the right to be a father. This is not your fault."
"Divorce may be a temporary relief for you, but it's not fair to you."
Chu Wanfang knew that divorce could free a woman from an unhappy marriage, but in this era, those who lost their fertility and got divorced might not necessarily live a better life.
At least Wang Sandan still loves Zhang Juanjuan. As long as the matter of Wang Sandan's mother is handled properly, there is still a chance for their marriage to continue.
“Sister-in-law Juanjuan, what Aunt Zhao and Aunt Chu said makes some sense. If you get a divorce, you can get rid of Old Mrs. Li’s torment, but the harm you suffer in their family will be a hurdle you can never get over in your life.”
Bai Le also felt sorry for Zhang Juanjuan's situation, but she did not agree with getting a divorce like this.
“Push Wang Sandan a bit. If he’s really not satisfied, then we can consider divorce. Old Mrs. Li has to pay the price for the harm she’s done to you.”
Bai Le genuinely cares for Zhang Juanjuan.
At this moment, Liu Changming brought Liu Jiansheng over.
"Auntie?" Liu Jiansheng looked at Zhang Juanjuan's appearance and came over to hug her with heartache.
Looking at Liu Jiansheng, Zhang Juanjuan felt heartbroken and tears streamed down her face again.
"Auntie, when I grow up, I'll be able to protect you from being bullied." Liu Jiansheng wiped away the tears from Zhang Juanjuan's eyes.
The child that Shen Qiaoyue was holding cried, and she had no choice but to take the child out.
Wen Xiaoyu and Danian seemed to be having a lot of fun.
"Xiaoyu, you're pregnant, aren't you tired? Let me hold the baby." Shen Qiaoyue held Xiao Nian in her arms and was about to reach out to hold Danian.
Wen Xiaoyu said, "Sister-in-law, it's okay, I'm not tired, hold her a little longer."
"You need to be careful this month, Da Nian is very mischievous, it wouldn't be good if he kicked you." Shen Qiaoyue looked at Wen Xiaoyu's belly, which looked to be more than seven months along.
Shen Qiaoyue was also worried that Da Nian might move around carelessly and accidentally kick something.
Wen Xiaoyu, however, was not worried at all.
Wen Xiaoyu's husband is a battalion commander in Lu Chen's regiment, and the two had a child not long after they got married.
Before she became pregnant, Shen Qiaoyue was busy with work and didn't spend much time with Wen Xiaoyu.
After giving birth, we started communicating more during my postpartum confinement period.
Wen Xiaoyu was a sent-down youth who, after getting married, followed her husband to the military base.
"Is Sister Juanjuan feeling better?" Wen Xiaoyu asked with concern.
Shen Qiaoyue said, "With so many people comforting me, I feel much better."
"This old lady Li suffered a mental breakdown. Wang Sandan shouldn't be the only one to bear the consequences. His older brother kicked his mother out of the house, so he should call the police and sue him for abandoning an elder!" Wen Xiaoyu said angrily.
Shen Qiaoyue explained softly, "This won't work. The old lady is already in this state. If Wang Sandan's brother turns the tables and tries to shift the blame, things will only get worse!"
Wen Xiaoyue frowned helplessly, sighed and said, "Since ancient times, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law has been very difficult. This old lady has been kicked out by her son, but she doesn't consider her own reasons and keeps making trouble!"
"Why do women have to make things difficult for each other? Is it only by having children that one has a way out?" Wen Xiaoyu touched her belly and said, "If it weren't for my husband Lao Meng liking me and treating me well, I wouldn't want to suffer like this!"
