Ye Qingqing frowned. Was Xiao Jie's father really a PhD?
This man's IQ is even lower than that of an elementary school student. He questions his wife without even knowing the facts. No wonder Lin Bai felt a chill and wanted a divorce. This kind of man is not even as good as a hair on her husband's head. The old woman still treats her son like a treasure. She is really narrow-minded and thinks that her son is the only man left in the world.
Other neighbors also shook their heads. Outsiders see things more clearly. They didn't know the truth before, and only heard Grandma Xiaojie talking about her daughter-in-law. After hearing it so much, they thought Lin Baiwei was really a mean person who didn't care about her family and didn't care about her son. Everyone's opinion was influenced by the old lady.
But after watching this drama today, the neighbors have all changed their opinions. The unreasonable mother-in-law, the husband who defends his mother without distinguishing right from wrong, and a whole family of bloodsuckers—Lin Baiwei has been virtuous enough to endure all this for so many years.
If it were any other truly mean-spirited woman, she wouldn't have been able to endure it for even a day; they would have divorced long ago and gone their separate ways.
Lin Bai looked at her husband coldly. She had accepted Ye Qingqing's advice and decided to force herself to live with this man for the sake of her son. After all, it didn't matter whether she had a man or not, but it was different for her son to have a father.
But now this man disgusts her so much that she doesn't want to see him for even a second longer, and she doesn't want to see this whole family either.
"Zhao Wenshan, see you at the Civil Affairs Bureau at 8:30 tomorrow morning. I hope you won't be late again."
Lin Baiwei disdained to explain. She didn't need this man's forgiveness at all, and she hadn't done anything wrong. She couldn't be bothered to tolerate this man anymore; she might as well kick him out.
"Fine... I knew you had a lover outside, you shameless vixen, you only make easy money, and now you look down on my son? No way... If you want a divorce, the house, car, and savings will all be my son's, and you can leave with nothing but your underwear!"
The old woman was first startled, then enraged, and began to curse with foul language, clapping her hands with each curse and even adding her own voiceover, making her far more entertaining than the shrewish women portrayed on television.
Xiao Jie's father, Zhao Wenshan, was embarrassed. He tugged at his mother, telling her to speak more politely. This wasn't their hometown village; she shouldn't keep bringing up organs and other people's ancestors. The residents in this community were all civilized people, and some were even his clients. He was losing face.
The old lady couldn't think of any of this. She felt she was right, and the one who was wrong was Lin Baiwei, that shameless woman. She had to fight for her son's rights, otherwise, if they really got divorced, the quality of life for her whole family would definitely drop significantly.
It's easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but difficult to go from extravagance to frugality. The old lady had gotten used to a good life with money, so how could she endure the hardship of the past? Besides, she didn't want to go back to her hometown. The dilapidated village was nothing compared to the respectable big city of Pingjiang.
The old lady had thought it through clearly. With her son's income, it would be difficult for him to buy the big house they lived in now, and he definitely couldn't afford it in the short term. Therefore, she had to make Lin Baiwei leave with nothing so that she could ensure a comfortable life for her family.
The old lady was incredibly shrewd and meticulous in her planning, but she never imagined that Lin Baiwei wasn't a blockhead and wouldn't let her leech off her.
Lin Bai gave a cold laugh, looking at her husband with disdain. She didn't argue with the old lady, but asked Zhao Wenshan, "Is that what you think too?"
Zhao Wenshan's square, wooden face flushed red and then turned pale. He was so embarrassed that he wanted to disappear into the ground. In his more than forty years of life, this was the first time he had been in such an awkward situation, and he felt a lot of resentment towards his wife.
