Sun Hao was surprised that his parents agreed so quickly. In his mind, his parents would never agree to give custody of their grandson to Dong Sanmei. He never expected them to come to their senses so quickly. He really underestimated his ex-wife's abilities.
He had no objection to his ex-wife having custody of the child, because she was able to provide their son with a better life.
He talked with his parents for a while, then said goodbye and left home.
Sun Hao walked outside the gate and saw his son playing in the car, while Dong Sanmei stood in front of the gate waiting.
He walked up to his ex-wife and said, "Let's go back to the city. Let's transfer the child's household registration to yours. I can't afford more than 500 yuan a month in child support. Is that okay?"
Dong Sanmei said, "Child support is waived. I can afford to raise my son. Just focus on living your own life."
Sun Hao said thank you and walked directly towards the car.
He walked to the car, opened the door, and sat in the back seat. Dong Sanmei got in, started the car, and drove towards the city.
Looking in the rearview mirror, Dong Sanmei saw Sun Hao's parents standing outside the gate watching the car drive away. She felt a pang of sadness. The divorce would not only hurt her, but also cause irreparable harm to Sun Hao's parents and children.
To regain custody of her son, she couldn't simply go to the police station's household registration office to transfer the household registration. She needed to go through the household registration transfer procedures for the child, which was extremely troublesome. The two of them finally managed to transfer the child's household registration to Dong Sanmei's household registration book before the end of the workday in the afternoon. From then on, she had custody of her son.
After Sun Hao and Dong Sanmei finished their business, he went straight back to the bus station.
The son called out from the car, "Dad, where are you going? Aren't you coming home with Mom?"
"You and Mom go back first. Dad will go back after he finishes his business."
Sun Hao whispered, "How long can you keep this divorce a secret from the children?"
Dong Sanmei knew she couldn't keep it a secret any longer, so she said, "After I get on the bus, I'll tell the child that I won't take you home; you can go back by yourself."
He said okay, then turned and walked towards the bus station.
Dong Sanmei opened the car door and got in. Her son asked, "Mom, what happened between you and Dad? Don't hide it from me, okay?"
The ten-year-old child was fully sensible, and Dong Sanmei knew she couldn't keep it a secret any longer. She said, "Son, I divorced your father at the beginning of this summer."
The son cried after hearing this, sobbing, "Why did you divorce my father?"
This was something she couldn't explain to her son. She couldn't very well say that his father had cheated on his wife. She said, "You're still young, there are many things you don't understand. Your father and I don't get along. Stop crying and come home with Mom."
The child kept crying for his father. Dong Sanmei knew that it was no use trying to persuade him now, so she let him make a fuss until he stopped. She started the car and drove home.
Dong Sanmei drove back to her house, parked the car in front of the gate, got out, opened the gate, drove the car into the yard, got out of the car, pulled her son out of the car, and led him into the villa's living room.
The child is still young, and he stops fussing after a while, but he won't say a word to his mother, as if she were his enemy.
After finishing cooking, Dong Sanmei called out, "Son, come and eat!"
Xiao Wei said, "I won't eat. Leave me alone. I don't have a mother like you."
After finishing his sentence, the son simply lay down on the sofa, ignoring Dong Sanmei no matter what she said.
Dong Sanmei stood up and said, "If you don't behave, I'll call your uncle over."
The child was afraid of no one but his uncle. He obediently stood up, walked to the dining table, and sat down opposite his mother to eat.
Dong Sanmei chuckled inwardly, thinking, "You little brat, there's still someone who can handle you."
A child is still a child; at night, he cries and wants to sleep with his mother.
Dong Sanmei said, "You're ten years old this year, you're a big kid now, go back to your bed to sleep."
Xiao Wei said, "I'll sleep with you, I don't want to tell my uncle."
Dong Ermei laughed after hearing her son's words. Her son was really precocious, knowing how to defy her. She said, "You little rascal, you wait here for your mother. That trick won't work on me. Go sleep wherever you want."
After listening to his mother's words, Xiao Wei didn't say anything. He took off his clothes and crawled into the quilt at his mother's feet to sleep.
Ten-year-old children are very sleepy and fall asleep as soon as they lie down.
Dong Sanmei got up and carried her son to his bed, covering him with a blanket.
That's the good thing about ten-year-olds; they won't wake up no matter how you hold them. Dong Sanmei affectionately kissed her son's little face and then went back to her own bed to sleep.
As the Spring Festival approached, Fang Lin finished dinner and drove to Yi Xiaohui Supermarket. After Xiao Yu transferred the entire supermarket to her, she changed the name to "Xiao Hui" Supermarket, which was a homophone of her name but not a character.
After nearly ten days, Yifei and her mother got used to the supermarket's operating model.
Before the Spring Festival, when the supermarket was doing well, the mother and daughter were extremely busy every day. But when people are busy, they forget all their worries.
When Yi Xiaohui saw Fang Lin come in, she said, "Aunt Fang is here."
Fang Lin said, "I needed to talk to your mother, so I just stopped by to check on her. Where is she?"
Yi Xiaohui said, "My mom is doing the accounts in the general manager's office, you go there."
Fang Lin had been to the office area before; it was at the very back of the supermarket. She said "okay" and walked towards the back.
She walked to the door of the general manager's office, raised her hand, and knocked. Yi Feifei said, "Come in!"
Fang Lin pushed open the office door and walked in. Yi Feifei was sitting at her desk doing accounts. When she saw Fang Lin, she stood up and said with a smile, "Oh, it's you, little sister. Please have a seat."
Fang Lin walked to the sofa and sat down. Yi Feifei poured her a glass of water and sat down opposite her.
Fang Lin said, "Sister Feifei, haven't you thought about finding someone else?"
Yi Feifei said, "It's not easy for someone my age to find someone, so I'm not looking anymore; I'll just live alone."
Xiaoyu said, "Old Song, the deputy director of the car factory, lost his wife a few years ago. He knows you're single too, so he asked me to come and play matchmaker for you. Are you willing?"
Yi Feifei only went to the car factory to complete the onboarding procedures and didn't work a single day. It seemed a bit abnormal that someone was pursuing her. She asked, "How did he know about me?"
Fang Lin said, "Let me be frank with you, his name is Song Erwang, he's your college classmate, you don't forget him, do you?"
Song Erwang was indeed Yi Feifei's classmate in college, but they hadn't seen each other since graduation.
Many boys pursued Yi Feifei when she was in college, including Song Erwang, but she rejected them all, claiming that she had a husband back in her hometown.
Yi Feifei was a rural resident at the time. She had excellent grades in high school and, after graduation, she used her connections to get a job as a teacher in a rural junior high school, becoming a privately-run teacher.
Yi Feifei and Yi Minghui were from the same village. Yi Minghui was a worker in a machinery factory. Later, through Yi Penghui's connections, they went to each other's homes to propose marriage.
Yi Feifei was unwilling to marry him at the time. Yi Minghui was a permanent employee with a secure job, while Yi Feifei was a private school teacher, who, to put it bluntly, was still a farmer.
Under pressure from her parents, Yi Feifei eventually got engaged to Yi Minghui, and the two got married a year later.
