When the written document severing ties was placed in front of Granny Zhang, she hesitated again. She hadn't expected Fu Hongxing to be so shrewd.
In addition, she was illiterate, so she could only ask several village officials from her own village to take turns looking at it to see if there were any problems.
When I questioned Old Lady Zhang just now, what she said was all so clear.
Since the other party was unwilling to raise the child, they carefully examined the marriage contract.
Afterwards, the village chief took the divorce papers and read them aloud to Old Lady Zhang from beginning to end.
After reading it aloud and explaining it clearly, he put down the document severing ties with her and asked her to put her fingerprint on it.
Once the button is pressed, the life and death of the three Zhang sisters will no longer be related to the Zhang family.
When Old Lady Zhang heard the village chief and village officials say this, she thought about her future. Although being alone would be difficult, it was still much better than dragging along several burdens.
Anyway, she's just a girl. At worst, when Dagen comes back, we'll make him divorce his wife and marry a better one, so he can give the Zhang family ten or eight big, fat grandsons. That's the real deal.
Thinking of this, Old Lady Zhang stepped forward without hesitation, reached out and pressed the inkpad onto the paper.
Besides Old Lady Zhang, the village chief and other village officials who came with her also signed and affixed their fingerprints.
Tan Dingguo and the village cadres from Xishan Village who accompanied him naturally signed and affixed their fingerprints as well.
After all the signatures and fingerprints were completed, Ning Jing's heart, which had been hanging in mid-air, finally returned to its original place.
"Alright, we're leaving now. You guys... take good care of the children!"
Ignoring Old Lady Zhang, the village chief stared at Fu Hongxing and said to him with a heavy heart.
Fu Hongxing nodded and replied without hesitation, "Don't worry, from now on they are our Fu family's children, and we will naturally treat them well!"
Upon hearing Fu Hongxing's words, the village chief sighed again, shook his head, nodded to him, and left with several village officials.
Of course, before leaving, they took Old Lady Zhang with them.
Now that everything is settled, it wouldn't be right to let Old Lady Zhang keep causing trouble here.
Originally, Old Lady Zhang wanted to play the victim and extort as much money as she could, but she didn't expect that her village chief and the others wouldn't give her any room to put on a show.
After seeing that Old Lady Zhang and her group had all left, Tan Dingguo tapped the soles of his feet with his pipe.
"Alright, I'm going back too!"
Then, as if remembering something, he turned to Fu Hongxing and whispered, "Your wife has no manners, don't you understand? Don't be like some people who are easily swayed and listen to their wives. Having three more children is indeed difficult, but it's not as scary as your wife makes it out to be. You'll have to discipline them properly from now on."
After saying that, he glanced at Ning Jing, who had gone into the house with the letter severing ties and hadn't come out yet.
Upon hearing this, Fu Hongxing's faint smile vanished.
The upward curve of her mouth was flattened, and it even showed signs of drooping downwards.
"Uncle Tan, do you think I don't know whether my wife is polite or not?"
Besides, I listen to my wife because she wants what's best for me, and as long as her reasoning is sound, that's fine.
As for the children, my wife has always been the one raising them.
She works at the breeding farm, as you know very well, Uncle Tan. She works very hard in many things.
I've already taught Ning Jing all the knowledge I learned in literacy classes back in the army. I don't think she needs any further guidance from me.
