"You can't go wrong by listening to your parents. If you're going to be stubborn, then cut ties with our family, so you don't end up hurting your parents!"
Leaving those words behind, Yao Qinghe didn't bother to say anything more to Han Bailan. She turned and left the main room to prepare lunch in the kitchen.
After Yao Qinghe left, Han's mother stared at Han Bailan for a long time before saying, "Your father and I have four children. If we were to say which one we have devoted the most energy and love to, it would undoubtedly be you, our daughter. But this has also fostered your carefree and irresponsible nature."
Now you should deeply understand the bitter consequences of not listening to your father and me. So, make a decisive move to extricate yourself from this situation, and then carefully consider what kind of life you want to live from now on.
Once you've made up your mind, go and work hard on it yourself. After all, the country has introduced new policies, and as long as you don't break the law, you can do whatever you want. There's no need to set your sights on married men.
Besides, our country is so big. If you're outstanding enough, why would you be afraid of not finding a good man?
After the words were spoken, seeing that Han Bailan did not react, Han's mother sighed again, shook her head, and went to the kitchen.
There was only one person left in the main room. She stood there for a long time, and then, like a puppet without self-awareness, she walked to her own room.
After closing the door, Han Bailan sat on the edge of the bed, her expression blank. She kept replaying the words her mother and Yao Qinghe had said in the main room, as well as Song Qingbin's tone and expression when he spoke to her.
She initiated the annulment of the engagement, and did so in a way that humiliated the man.
She paid extra to marry someone she thought was in love.
After marriage, however, their life became a mess, and he was even beaten at the drop of a hat.
The conflict escalated, and the couple considered divorce. They were reluctant to give up the good life the Zhao family had provided and were unwilling to let go.
But suddenly he woke up from his dream and wanted to go back to his ex.
Thinking about this, Han Bailan felt deeply that she was not a good woman... She looked down on Song Qingbin, often expressing disdain in her words, and did something to betray him during their engagement and wedding preparations, using this as a pretext to call off the engagement.
Now she realizes that the marriage she so desperately wanted based on love isn't as wonderful as she originally imagined. And just as she learns that the man she once looked down on and shamelessly broke off the engagement with has a bright future ahead of him, she develops some shameless thoughts...
Was she really that kind of person?
No wonder Song Qingbin didn't give her a friendly look...
Her eyes gradually welled up with tears, and Han Bailan was filled with regret. She asked herself silently: What should I do next?
There is absolutely no way she can continue living with Zhao Jing. Even if she has her reasons for how things have turned out, a man who lays a hand on a woman is worse than an animal!
Moreover, she had given birth to his son. Even if she didn't contribute to the family income after marriage, the fact that she continued the Zhao family line was enough to make the Zhao family treat her well.
Unexpectedly, since their marriage, the Zhao family has never considered her as part of the family. They all look down on her. Otherwise, Zhao Jing wouldn't have resorted to violence against her so easily.

Song Qingbin had originally thought that Han Bailan would not give up as she said, and would come to the village to talk to him about this and that. Well, to put it bluntly, she wanted to "rekindle their past relationship." Of course, in Song Qingbin's mind, he and Han Bailan had no past relationship whatsoever.
reason?
The reason the two families were able to arrange the marriage was mainly due to Han's father's excessive enthusiasm; he was determined to introduce his daughter, Han Bailan, to Song Qingbin. Song Qingbin, considering that he had indeed reached marriageable age,...
Thinking that Han Bailan didn't have any major problems, and with Song Sanhe and his wife urging them to get married, he simply told his family about the Han family's desire to arrange a marriage.
In short, Song Qingbin had no feelings for Han Bailan.
The two got engaged, but it was just a way to live together.
Let's get back to the main topic.
I'm leaving for Beijing tomorrow. I was packing my things at home today when Song Qingbin suddenly heard Song Guoqing ask, "Brother, that annoying woman hasn't shown up since that day. Could it be that she's realized she's delusional and given up on you to avoid making a fool of herself?"
"You said it yourself, you're just asking for trouble. Anyone with a sense of shame wouldn't continue to act foolishly."
Ever since Han Bailan suddenly appeared that day, to be honest, Song Qingbin has been on guard ever since she said she "would not give up." He is wary of Han Bailan coming to Shisong Village, disregarding morality and shame, to find him again and again, or even using some despicable means to scheme against him.
After all, one can only be a thief for a thousand days, but not a thief for a thousand days. Therefore, he had no choice but to be vigilant, lest he be tricked and his family be torn apart.
“We’re heading to Beijing tomorrow, so we shouldn’t see that woman again. Brother, you don’t need to worry too much about her clinging to you.”
Song Guoqing smiled and comforted Song Qingbin.
Upon hearing this, Song Qingbin laughed, casually ruffled Song Guoqing's hair, and said, "I have nothing to worry about, your older brother."
"Sure?"
Song Guoqing's eyes were teasing: "Aren't you worried that your sister-in-law will cause trouble for you?"
"Have you forgotten?"
Song Qingbin glanced at Song Guoqing, who, upon hearing this, paused for a moment and asked, "What?"
"I have your sister-in-law's trust!"
With a smile in his eyes, Song Qingbin replied.
"Alright, that's definitely your source of confidence, brother!"
Song Guoqing said, "However, brother, you must not let sister-in-law down, otherwise, Mom and Dad will definitely not forgive you, and my sister and my second brother will also despise you. At that time, you will become a sinner in our family and you can forget about having a good life again."
"You have so little faith in your older brother?"
Song Qingbin was not angry at all because of what Song Guoqing said.
"No, that's not it. But even the best horses can stumble. I just want you to keep a proper distance from women when you're out. Only in this way can you provide my lovely little nephew with a warm and happy family so that he can grow up healthily!"
Song Guoqing kept working with his hands as he spoke with a smile, and Song Qingbin, after hearing what he said, couldn't help but ruffle his hair again: "Okay, I'll keep your words in mind, brother!"
-
Han Bailan didn't go to see Song Qingbin again, not to save face for herself, but because she didn't want to be abandoned by everyone. After all, once she divorced Zhao Jing, she could only rely on her family.
If her family truly severs ties with her, it's like a person losing their home.
Of course, Song Qingbin's attitude towards Han Bailan also made her realize that continuing to pester her would be a waste of time.
When Han's parents learned of Han Bailan's decision to divorce Zhao Jing, they were undoubtedly relieved.
However, when the Zhao family learned that Han Bailan had directly filed for divorce in court and was demanding various compensations for Zhao Jing's repeated physical assaults on her during the marriage, Zhao's father didn't react much. Zhao's mother and Zhao Jing firmly disagreed, but in the face of the law, they had no choice but to agree to pay Han Bailan a certain amount of compensation.
It should be noted that Han Bailan did not want children. She did not want everything in her dream to become reality, including her son becoming an ungrateful wretch who did not understand or help her and ignored the suffering she endured in the Zhao family.
