Shen Qianqian said again, "If someone like my eldest uncle can work at the brick factory, why can't you work at the Dongxing factory? The gatekeeper needs to be strong and responsible. I think you, second uncle, can handle it."
Yu Jianhai nodded repeatedly, barely containing his excitement.
"I...I am quite strong, I'll try it later."
Working in a factory is indeed better than toiling in the fields from dawn till dusk. He wasn't alone; he had a wife and children to support. He had spent the first half of his life busy but accomplished nothing. At home, he was not favored by his parents and was always subordinate to his older brother.
Now that I'm this old, if I don't give it my all, what will happen to my children's education?
If they fail the exam this time and have to repeat a year, are their parents willing to pay for it?
impossible.
In his parents' eyes, only his eldest nephew, Lin Sen, probably had this opportunity.
With this in mind, Yu Jianhai made up his mind completely.
He was going to work at the factory, but he would wait until everything was completely settled before telling his family. After everyone left, Shen Qianqian went directly to Yu Jianhua to ask.
"Auntie, have you ever had children?"
It may be presumptuous of me to say this, but Shen Qianqian asked it quite casually.
Yu Jianhua paused for a moment, then stammered, "Yes, I had a child, but I fell and lost the baby. I haven't gotten pregnant again since."
She only became pregnant three years after marrying into the family. The doctor said she had overworked herself and told her to rest. Her mother-in-law and husband took the opportunity to coax her into giving up her job. Later, she had nothing to do at home, and her mother-in-law disliked her and made her do housework, which made her even more miserable than before. In the freezing cold, she had to fetch well water to wash clothes. Later, she fell to the ground and lost her baby.
In the years that followed, she both longed for the child to come back and feared it coming back.
The Zeng family was not a good family.
Coming here will only bring suffering, so why bother? "Just as I thought..."
Shen Qianqian thought of Zeng He's fierce opposition and resistance to divorce, and it seemed that Yu Jianhua had some kind of leverage that he was even more afraid of.
What could it be?
Shen Qianqian thought of men's pitiful pride; they always cared a lot about these things.
Then she thought about the children.
Yu Jianhua's ability to get pregnant means there's nothing wrong with her body. As for the harm that miscarriage might cause, she had thought about it carefully. If it were really because Yu Jianhua's body couldn't have children, someone like Zeng He would definitely be the first to stand up and ask for a divorce!
So now the other party refuses to divorce him no matter what, even after he's shown photos of their affair in his face.
It looks suspicious!
Yu Jianhua snapped out of her sadness and asked in confusion, "What do you mean?" "Auntie, do you think it's possible that Zeng He can't have children?" Yu Jianhua was stunned: "Zeng He? Isn't that me...?"
Shen Qianqian disagreed.
“How could this be your problem? You’ve been pregnant, which proves that there’s nothing wrong with your body. We threatened him with our future, but he didn’t care and refused to get a divorce no matter what. His attitude is very strange, as if he’s hiding something.”
"If what I think is true, then he might not get a divorce."
Yu Jianhua never expected this. During her five years in the Zeng family, she was always called a barren hen. For the first three years when she didn't get pregnant, Hu Guihua would scold her every day. Later, after she miscarried, she was scolded every day again.
But is this solely her problem?
Could Zeng He be involved in this?
The thought of this possibility made Yu Jianhua's breathing quicken. It was as if she had washed away the mud that had been stuck to her body for years, and she felt completely relieved.
Yu Jianhua looked at Shen Qianqian with pleading eyes and asked softly, "What should I do now?"
"Easy!"
Shen Qianqian's eyes were bright and moist, and her face had a narrow expression.
"If Zeng He refuses to divorce, then we'll find someone to make him agree to the divorce. Who do you think should be this person?"
Who to look for?
Yu Jianhua immediately understood Shen Qianqian's meaning. "Her?"
Zeng He refused to divorce.
However, Hu Guihua informed Yu's family about Yu Jianhua bringing people to their door to demand a divorce. Hu Guihua then made the matter known to everyone in the Five Star Production Commune.
So Old Mrs. Fang, Old Mr. Yu, and the eldest son and his wife rushed to the Dongxing Factory in a frenzy, but of course, they still didn't see anyone this time.
Because Shen Qianqian had already taken Yu Jianhua to find Zeng He's lover, Zhou Wei.
Zhou Wei was a widow and a lumber mill worker. She was uneducated but somewhat attractive.
She was quite well-known in the factory. Her current workstation was left to her by her deceased husband, and she also has a son with her.
Many people wanted to marry her, but because she was a widow with a son, most of the men who approached her were either widowed or older unmarried men.
Zhou Wei has high standards and looks down on everyone, but it turns out she was having an affair with Zeng He, a married man.
Zhou Wei lived in a small courtyard in another alley, three streets away from the Zeng family.
The Zhou family's house looked neater than the Zeng family's.
Since Yu Jianhua hasn't gone back home these days, Hu Guihua and Zeng He haven't been paying attention to any work, and haven't even cleaned the house during the New Year.
Shen Qianqian stepped forward and knocked on the door. After a while, she heard a woman's voice respond from inside. "Who is it?"
As soon as the woman opened the door, she saw the two people standing outside. Her gaze fell on the older one, and her face immediately froze. Just as she was about to close the door, a foot stopped her.
“Zhou Wei, we have something to talk to you about. If you’re not willing to talk, I’ll give this photo to your factory leaders.”
Shen Qianqian took out the photo and placed it in front of Zhou Wei so that the other party could see it clearly.
She refused to believe that the few photos Yang Wang had painstakingly taken by his lover were completely useless.
Fortunately, Zhou Wei reacted differently from Zeng He, who clearly showed a look of fear.
Zhou Wei: "I have nothing to say to you. If you have any questions, just go directly to Zeng He."
Shen Qianqian stared at Zhou Wei for a couple of seconds. The other woman was indeed good-looking, and she gave off the feeling that she had never suffered and had been pampered. Her eyes were bright and innocent.
But Shen Qianqian doesn't believe that a woman who would have a relationship with a married man has a pure heart.
She got straight to the point: "My aunt wants to divorce Zeng He, but he refuses. Did you know that? Zeng He even said that we can send the photos to the authorities, he's not afraid, he absolutely refuses to divorce."
Zhou Wei's face turned pale, and she blurted out, "Impossible!" Shen Qianqian sighed.
"I actually hope he's lying. My aunt isn't doing well in the Zeng family and has wanted a divorce for a long time."
Already
"Since Zeng He likes you so much, he should listen to you, right? I still have several of these photos."
"Zhang, if this really gets sent to your boss, you'll both lose your jobs, and you might even end up in jail. Hooliganism and promiscuity are serious charges." Three days later, Zeng He agreed to a divorce on the condition that Yu Jianhua give him three hundred yuan. Shen Qianqian immediately told him to get lost.
Two days later, after Zhou Wei said something, Zeng He finally agreed to cooperate, and they successfully obtained the divorce certificate.
The Yu family wept bitterly upon hearing the news, but no one paid them any attention.
