Zhu Hongying looked at Niu Haisheng in disbelief: "What did you say?"
Niu Haisheng's face was filled with disappointment: "You won't listen to anything I say, so let's get a divorce. Perhaps only by getting a divorce can you have peace, otherwise this family will never have peace."
Zhu Hongying was originally unconvinced, and now she got even more angry after hearing what Niu Haisheng said: "Niu Haisheng! What do you mean? Divorce? You want a divorce at such an old age? You've wanted to divorce for a long time and you finally said it today, right?"
"You just despise me because I'm uneducated and not as virtuous and well-mannered as those educated people? Look at yourself. You can't even find yourself if you fall into a pile of coal. If my family hadn't fed you, you would have starved to death. How could you have the status you have today?"
Niu Xiaoxia was completely shocked. She never expected that her father, who was in his sixties, would actually file for divorce.
Niu Haisheng stood up, even more annoyed by Zhu Haiying's unreasonableness: "Are we talking about the same thing? I asked you to apologize to Zhou Chaoyang, but you did? You went and made a scene again. I know what kind of girl Chaoyang is. She is just a girl. If she were a boy, he would have the talent of a general. How could he be so narrow-minded as you?"
Zhu Hongying became even angrier: "You're not going to argue with us? Then what have we done wrong? She's a widow now, isn't it for her own good to introduce her to someone?"
"Nonsense! Is she an ordinary widow? Who is Lu Changfeng? Are you being kind? Where do you put Lu Changfeng? You are clearly mocking her for being a widow. With your behavior, where do you put those heroes who sacrificed their lives?"
"You are wearing clothes without patches and eating rice and flour every day, so you can laugh at those people without restraint? What gives you the right to do so?"
"Zhu Hongying, if you were an ordinary person, I wouldn't be so angry, but you've also lived through those years and met the families of those who died. Are you not touched at all?"
"What qualifications do you have to call me the widow of Chaoyang all the time? Who do you think you are? Divorce me! Now!"
Niu Haisheng was really angry, his eyes were red with anger, and he grabbed Zhu Hongying's wrist and dragged her out: "Go, go quickly."
Seeing that Niu Haisheng was serious, Zhu Hongying was dumbfounded. She refused to leave and backed away, saying, "No, I won't divorce you. Niu Haisheng, are you crazy? I gave birth to four children for you, and now you want a divorce. Do you still have a conscience?"
Niu Xiaoxia was also dumbfounded, and hurried over to hug Niu Haisheng's arm: "Dad, Dad, calm down first, we were wrong, we know we were wrong. Let's go apologize to Chaoyang again. Okay? Don't divorce my mom."
Niu Haisheng obviously didn't believe it: "Can you know you are wrong? If you knew you were wrong, today wouldn't be like this. You wouldn't be kicked out."
"I don't know what kind of personalities you have. You are always so arrogant and look down on others. After you came to Beijing, you forgot your roots and that you were born as farmers. Now you are even more proud and forget how you got to where you are today. Xiaoxia, get out of the way. We have to get a divorce today."
Niu Xiaoxia burst into tears: "Dad, don't talk about divorce first, can't we sit down and discuss it properly?"
Seeing that Niu Haisheng was determined, Zhu Hongying struggled to free herself, jumped onto the sofa, stood up, and pointed at Niu Haisheng: "Niu Haisheng, I'm telling you, if you want to be Chen Shimei, don't make excuses. If you want to change your wife, don't make so many excuses. If you dare to divorce, I will die in front of you! If you don't believe me, try it!"
Niu Haisheng looked at the hysterical Zhu Hongying, gritted his teeth, and stamped his feet in anger: "Go ahead and make a scene."
After saying that, he slammed the door and walked out without looking back.
Niu Xiaoxia hurried over to help Zhu Hongying down: "Mom, what happened to my dad? He has never been so angry before. Why is he so angry today?"
Zhu Hong sat on the sofa and panted angrily, "You bastard, you actually dared to ask for a divorce. You can't divorce me unless I die. If he dares to ask for it again, I will sue him at the Women's Federation and make a scene at the Veterans Center to embarrass him."
Niu Xiaoxia felt that her father was really angry this time, and he would probably insist on getting a divorce no matter how her mother made a fuss. She frowned and said, "Mom, I think my dad is serious this time. Don't be angry first. We should coax my dad and ask him why he is so angry. Before, when he asked us to apologize, he didn't say anything."
Zhu Hongying shook her head: "Coax him? Dream on. I don't think he dares to ask for a divorce again!"
She couldn't help but recount how her family had helped Niu Haisheng, otherwise Niu Haisheng would have starved to death. At the same time, she scolded Niu Haisheng for being an ungrateful person and wanting to be a Chen Shimei who would never have a good death in the future.
Niu Xiaoxia was really afraid that her parents would divorce. Divorce at this age would be embarrassing, and people would look down on her. How would she live in her husband's family? How would she live in the workplace in the future?
So, she tried her best to persuade her mother not to divorce her father.
…
Niu Haisheng left the house and his emotions calmed down. He knew that divorce was not that easy, but he couldn't just let it go like that.
Since Zhou Chaoyang has not forgiven Zhu Hongying and her daughter, he will go again.
He didn't have the face to go directly to Zhou Chaoyang, knowing that Zhou Nanguang went to the activity center every day to exercise or play chess.
So he went over there. When he arrived, Zhou Nanguang was playing Go with someone. There were a few people watching nearby. He was too embarrassed to talk about this matter in front of so many people.
Just stood there quietly and waited.
Zhou Nanguang looked up several times and saw Niu Haisheng with a conflicted look on his face. There was a guilty look in his eyes, and he knew that he was looking for him.
After the game was over, Zhou Nanguang let the people around him play, and he stood up and called Niu Haisheng to go out and talk.
The two were walking in a garden-like courtyard.
Niu Haisheng held it in for a long time and apologized to Zhou Nanguang: "Old Zhou, I'm really sorry. My Zhu Hongying and Xiaoxia were stupid and did something that made Chaoyang angry."
Zhou Nanguang was still completely unaware: "What happened? Chaoyang didn't tell me either."
Niu Haisheng was too embarrassed to say it out loud, and after a long pause, he finally told the whole story: "It's just like this. You know my girl, she has never been smart, and she always speaks and acts in a noisy way. Their starting point may be good, thinking of introducing a girl to Chaoyang..."
Before Niu Haisheng could finish, Zhou Nanguang's face had darkened, and he looked at Niu Haisheng sharply: "The starting point is good? They probably just want to watch the fun. Besides, what's wrong with my Chaoyang being a widow? As long as I am here as a father, I don't think anyone dares to bully her."
