He is a man of honor, how could he have an affair with his cousin without a matchmaker...his reputation will be completely ruined!
Fan Xiurong's face turned even paler. Although she had deliberately seduced her cousin just now, she didn't want outsiders to know it.
She just wanted her cousin to divorce that rude country woman Chen Shuyi and marry her in a formal ceremony, but...but everything was messed up!
No... now that things have come to this, she must find a way to make her cousin take responsibility for her.
Aunt Liu and the others slapped their thighs and left, but after a while, circles of people gathered outside the bamboo house, which was rarely passed by.
They pointed at the bamboo house that slammed shut.
"Poor Miss Chen, I saw her crying so hard just now. She should just grit her teeth and raise the two children. Then she can have another child of her own. When Chen Xiucai graduates from high school, the whole family will move to the town and live happily there."
"It has not been easy for her in the past two years, taking care of the whole family. Even if she has no credit, she has worked hard. I didn't expect that Chen Xiucai has a mistress outside..."
"Tsk tsk, I never thought that Chen Xiucai, who was so infatuated with his deceased wife, would actually hang out with his own cousin, and even in this secluded study, reading himself to death."
Chen Shuyi didn't care about the ups and downs outside, and started packing her luggage as soon as she returned to the Chen family. The original owner brought a lot of dowry, but it was all used to subsidize the family expenses, and only a few worn-out clothes were left.
It's sad to say that she hasn't bought a new piece of clothing in the two years since she married into the Chen family.
The incident became so serious that Chen's mother, who had difficulty walking and had to torture her daughter-in-law at home all day, also heard the farce between her son and his cousin.
Chen Meng was returning home when he ran into the woman carrying a package. He frowned and asked, "What are you doing?"
Shen Shuyi glanced at Fan Xiurong who was standing closely behind him, “As you see, let’s get a divorce.”
“What do you mean?” Chen Meng was staring at Shen Shuyi.
“You’ve been hanging out with Fan Xiurong, and you still have the nerve to ask me what I mean.” Shen Shuyi glanced at him indifferently.
Chen Mengzheng's eyes were full of disbelief. Even if he was caught having an affair by others, he never thought that Chen Shuyi would mention divorce.
In his impression, Jixian, who is not very pretty, has no culture, and can only work hard, has his heart and eyes full of him. He is Shen Shuyi's heaven. How could Shen Shuyi be willing to leave the Chen family?
She should reflect on why she failed to control her husband's body and mind!
Mother Chen, who was sitting in the yard, was furious. She pointed at Shen Shuyi and yelled, "Well, now you have grown wings and you still dare to divorce me. I will let my son divorce you and see who is willing to marry you, a yellow-faced woman!"
"Bang!" Shen Shuyi stepped forward and kicked over the recliner under Chen's mother's butt.
"Ouch——" Mother Chen fell to the ground and then struggled to sit up.
"Chen Shuyi!" Chen Mengzheng took a few steps forward and raised his hand to teach her a lesson.
Shen Shuyi slapped Chen Mengzheng with her backhand. Her hands were rough from work and she was skilled in fighting, so it was more than enough for her to beat up a weak scholar.
"Chen Mengzheng, what are you crazy about? Hurry up and write the divorce letter, otherwise I will sue you at the county government office and see if you still have a chance to take the provincial examination in August."
"cousin..."
Chen Mengzheng covered his burning face and looked at her viciously, “Chen Shuyi.”
"Take back everything you said and apologize to me. Then, for the sake of the child, I can consider forgiving you."
"Are you talking about these two ungrateful bastards?" Shen Shuyi glanced at Chen Wenxian and Chen Wenyun who were staring at him angrily.
"They are not my children. Why do you think you can use this trick to control me?"
They were talking loudly in the yard, and those who were secretly listening to the gossip outside the yard were listening attentively. They didn't expect that the Chen family was so shameless.
Tormenting the daughter-in-law happens in every family, but I didn't expect that the family of Mr. Chen would be so bad.
Seeing that she was determined to leave, Chen Mengzheng couldn't help but lose his composure, and he deliberately softened his tone.
"Shuyi, we have been married for two years. Can you just throw away the love we have had for these two years? Xiurong and I were just confused for a moment. Don't think too much about it."
Fan Xiurong felt very uncomfortable when she heard this.
If her parents hadn't stopped her, she would have married her cousin on behalf of her dead sister, and it wouldn't have been Shen Shuyi's turn!
Shen Shuyi deliberately raised his voice, “Emotions?”
"Chen Mengzheng, you take me for a fool, don't you?"
"I appreciate your love for your late wife. I understand that you want to sleep in separate rooms. I just think that I can slowly untie your heart, and then we can become real husband and wife."
"I didn't expect it!" Shen Shuyi cried, "You've been having an affair with your cousin for a long time. No wonder you haven't touched me since we got married!"
“So he ate his fill outside!”
These words immediately caused a huge uproar, even Chen's mother was shocked, not to mention the gossiping neighbors outside.
"If that's the case, why did you marry me? Don't tell me that I'm easy to bully, so you marry me to be your maid and want me to work like a slave for you and serve your family."
"Chen Mengzheng, you are unworthy of being a scholar!"
Chen Mengzheng frowned. The hardworking Jixian in front of him seemed like a different person. Why didn't he know she was so eloquent before? Could it be that she was driven crazy by the affair between him and Xiurong?
"Are you sure you want to divorce?"
"Hurry up and write the divorce letter, otherwise I will sue the county government even if I risk my life." Chen Shuyi was determined to leave.
Mother Chen pulled the two children and pushed them in front of Shen Shuyi, “Hurry up and let your mother go to cook, why are you making such a fuss, aren’t you afraid of being laughed at by outsiders.”
Chen Wenxian and Chen Wenyun were so hungry that they kept growling, "I'm hungry, you, mom, go cook."
They were happy to hear that their stepmother wanted to divorce, but who would cook for them if she divorced? They better fill their stomachs first.
Shen Shuyi simply ignored the two ungrateful people. They had a father and a grandmother, so they would never starve to death. Besides, hadn’t they always hoped that Fan Xiurong would be their stepmother? Now that the wish is about to come true, why does this expression look uglier than crying?
"I wag my tail when I feed a dog, but I've raised you for two years and I've never heard you call me mom."
"From today on, don't even think about me being your slave anymore."
The Chen brothers and sisters were speechless, Mother Chen's eyes were wide open with anger, and Chen Mengzheng's face was ashen. He did not expect Shen Shuyi to be so aggressive.
As a scholar, there was no need for him to bother with such a country woman.
"Okay, you are determined to get a divorce, right? I will help you!"
Shen Shuyi successfully obtained the divorce letter. She blew on the ink with satisfaction. This bastard’s handwriting was good, but his character was not.
Fan Xiurong stood on tiptoe to glance at the divorce letter and quickly suppressed the excitement in her eyes.
Chen Meng was watching Chen Shuyi open the gate and leave swiftly. He felt a strange feeling in his heart, which was particularly unreal. In the past, Chen Shuyi's heart and eyes were full of him. Would he really leave?
Even after writing the divorce letter, he still didn't believe it was true. Shen Shuyi was just crazy and throwing a tantrum. She would come back to do laundry and cooking in a few days...
Chen Wenxian and his sister followed subconsciously, holding their rumbling stomachs. Chen Wenyun shouted heartlessly, "Mom, I'm hungry. Cook for me before you leave."
