It was clearly a matter between two people, but they pushed the blame onto the woman, just like after Xia Jin's sister got divorced, people in the village were saying all sorts of things.
In their eyes, such people should not return to the village even after an indecent divorce, so as not to lead the villagers astray.
It is clear that the relevant laws have been introduced for such a long time, but no matter how big the problems the villagers encounter, they will not think of divorce.
In their eyes, this is a shameful thing that must never be done. Even if they are beaten to death by men, they must not do such a thing.
Of course there are. Young people who can't live together anymore and want to divorce will receive all kinds of dissuasion from their elders, especially the woman's family.
So in the countryside, there will be many people jumping into wells and rivers. After all, they have no hope of survival, and even if they divorce, their parents' home will no longer accept them.
But they didn't want to live with such people anymore, so they had no choice but to die.
Even if they all died in the end, the man had no regrets, and the woman's family would just take some symbolic compensation and not pursue the matter any further.
They handled such a matter so simply, as if the life lost was not a human life.
Divorces are rare in the village, so after Liu Pingping got divorced, people in the village said that she learned it from her uncle.
After all, there hasn't been a divorce in this village for several years. There have only been two or three cases in the village, and two of them are within the same family.
Because of this, the people in the village talked more excitedly, saying that the younger generations are like their elders and they follow their example.
He kept educating his children, telling them not to learn from their family members. He also contacted Xia Jin's brother, and they said that they would definitely get divorced in the future.
Some people who were gossiping would specifically gossip in front of her aunt's house and make fun of her sister, so Liu Pingping could no longer live in the village.
When Xia's father got divorced, although marriage was more stringent in that era, he was still a man after all.
So the people in the village didn't say anything, because in their eyes, the man was not wrong, the fault was the woman, it must be Xia Jin's mother, they didn't know what kind of person she had hooked up with outside that led to the divorce.
Or maybe he wanted to go back to the city and climb up the ladder, instead of being a lowly person. So Father Xia was only ridiculed, not mocked, and was not slandered by anyone.
It's just that he will be looked down upon by others. It's useless for those second-rate old bachelors in the village. Some of them look at him with very uncomfortable eyes.
So the situations faced by the two people were still different. During the period after the divorce, Liu Pingping did not dare to go out, because as soon as he went out, many people looked at him with strange eyes.
It is precisely because of this that Aunt Xia seems to be uneasy. If she lets her daughter stay in the village any longer, no one knows what will happen.
She didn't want her daughter to ruin her life for such a scumbag.
He knew how terrible the rumors in the village were. He knew how many people had jumped into the river or committed suicide because of the rumors.
He didn't want his daughter to be like this. Besides, his daughter did nothing wrong in this matter. Why did everyone in the village say that to her?
So she went to ask Xia Jin for help again. After all, it was Xia Jin who gave them the idea before. Otherwise, they would not be able to get a divorce.
Xia Jin thought of asking her to bring her sister to Beijing as well, so that they could work together in the factory.
By then, fewer people here will know about it, and there won't be so many rumors. Besides, divorce in a big city like this, although not very common, is at least much more open than in the village.
There are many educated people here, and they know that many things cannot be blamed entirely on women, so they are very tolerant of such things.
Besides, Liu Pingping’s divorce was not because she was infertile, but mainly because of the man’s problem. Xia Jin felt something was wrong at the time, but she never expected that she was right.
In fact, the two of them were doing pretty well in the first year. They had just gotten married, and the man's family, including him, were all very nice to her, so Liu Pingping lived a very happy life.
There was nothing to worry about, so Xia Jin gradually let down her guard. After all, her life was really good in reality.
Xia Jin felt that she was being too suspicious and overthinking things, and that everyone she looked at was someone with bad intentions.
But by the second year, because Liu Pingping was still not pregnant, her mother-in-law was a little unwilling and kept complaining about this and that.
But he didn't say anything too extreme, he just said it verbally, but he still did what he had to do, he just liked to make fun of her.
Seeing her mother-in-law like this, Liu Pingping was very distressed because it was her first time to be someone's daughter-in-law. She cried to her mother, and Aunt Xia comforted her.
Fortunately, her partner is pretty good, so she doesn't need to worry about these things and just let things take their course.
It was at this time that Liu Pingping discovered something was wrong. In fact, she had felt it before, but it was not so obvious.
But since the beginning of the new year, she has discovered that her husband's mood becomes unpredictable whenever she talks or communicates with others.
If it were a woman, it would be okay, but if it were a man, he would sulk and have a gloomy face all day long.
Liu Pingping knew why this was the case. She felt that her husband did not trust her.
Of course she was sulking, after all, no one likes their significant other to doubt themselves. Besides, she was just like everyone else in the village, chatting normally and not doing anything special.
She was not someone who could keep things to herself, so after discovering the problem, she talked to her husband openly and honestly.
After the discussion, I found that things were indeed quiet for a long time, but the good times didn’t last long.
After another half a year, there was still no movement in her belly. This time, her mother-in-law did not just talk about it, but also found various folk remedies for her and asked her to take medicine to facilitate pregnancy.
At that time, she was still very obedient and felt that she could not live without a child. Moreover, she was anxious because she couldn't get pregnant for a long time. After all, the women who were similar to her and had married into the family were about to give birth.
So even though she knew the medicine was bitter, she still drank it.
Aunt Xia was also worried when she knew that her daughter often took those medicines. After all, even though she had little education, she knew that all medicines are poisonous.
