Everyone was stunned by the arrival of the two.
Zhang Xiuying stood up first: "Why are you here?"
That time at home, Li Yang and Ji Huaizhi scared the mother and son so much that they had nightmares for two nights. Besides, Li Yang was the one who protected Li Xue the most, so with her around, things naturally became difficult.
Li Yang's cold gaze swept across the crowd, finally landing on the tearful Li Xue: "After all, I am my cousin's family. For something as big as this, I should be there."
Xu Xiangxi had always disliked Li Yang. Holding his sleeping son in his arms, he said, "Li Xue's parents are here. Why would you meddle in their business?"
Li Jianyue's face darkened: "Xiao Yang, this is our family matter, you and your man should go back first."
Hearing Li Jianyue say this, Zhang Xiuying and Xu Xiangxi looked even more proud. Li Xue's parents didn't say anything, so what was a cousin of Li Yang?
Li Yang ignored their sarcasm and looked at Li Xue: "Cousin, do you need us here?"
Li Xue knew that the entire Li family opposed her and Xu Xiangdong's divorce, and the only one who supported her was Li Yang. Li Yang had helped her several times before, and if she rejected him this time, Li Yang would definitely leave her alone.
Li Xue nodded firmly: "I need you." She looked at everyone, "Xiao Yang came here at my request, so she has the right to sit here."
She didn't know where Li Yang got the news of her divorce, but she said this to avoid them accusing Li Yang of being uninvited or meddling in other people's business.
Sure enough, even so, Xu Xiangxi still snorted in dissatisfaction: "I didn't know that your Li family is getting divorced and the girl who is getting married is here to save the situation."
Li Yang smiled with relief after receiving Li Xue's agreement, thinking that it was worth her coming all the way here.
He cast a sharp glance at Xu Xiangxi: "There are so many things you haven't seen. If you know you're short on knowledge, just shut up and avoid making a fool of yourself."
"You..." Xu Xiangxi didn't expect that Li Yang was completely different from his weak appearance in the past. He actually slapped her in the face in front of so many people, which made her feel embarrassed and angry.
Seeing this, Li Yang stopped talking and sat down next to Li Xue. Ji Huaizhi also took the opportunity to bring Li Yang a pillow, put it behind her waist, and stood behind her with a stern face.
Ji Huaizhi's action was undoubtedly a statement, which made the faces of several people present change. Li Jianren looked even more bitter. He couldn't offend Xu Weiguo, and he couldn't offend Ji Huaizhi either. What should he do now?
Li Yang crossed one leg and said calmly, "Tell me how we're going to get a divorce. Let's get it done quickly while everyone is free."
Xu Weiguo didn't know about Li Yang's glorious deeds, nor was he clear about Ji Huaizhi's background. He just felt that the couple had an overbearing aura and were unapproachable, and he couldn't help but grumble in his heart.
Looking back at Li Jianren's attitude, we found that he hadn't said a word since the two of them entered the door. You have to know that Li Jianren was the protagonist in today's matter.
But as the head of the family, he couldn't let the Xu family's reputation be trampled underfoot like this. He pondered and said, "My dear sister, I know you have a good relationship with Li Xue, but divorce is not a child's play. You must think it through clearly. If you act out of anger, it will be too late to regret it.
Besides, with our Xu family's financial situation, it would be easy to find another husband, but for Li Xue, a woman, it would be difficult to remarry."
He believed that there was nothing wrong with what he said, and that it demonstrated his magnanimity as an elder. He hoped that Li Yang and Li Xue could understand his good intentions and not get divorced over such a small matter.
Hearing this, Li Yang smiled calmly: "Thank you, Uncle Xu. Uncle Xu, just take care of your own son. You don't need to worry about my cousin's affairs."
Xu Weiguo, like the men in the Li family, is an extremely selfish person. He lets the women handle all the big and small matters in the family. It seems that it is none of their business, but in fact they know clearly who is oppressed, but they just turn a deaf ear and dumb because it does not involve their own interests.
Xu Weiguo originally wanted to use his status as an elder to put pressure on Li Yang, but he didn't expect her to retort him so rudely, and his face immediately turned sour.
Although he is not a big leader, he has climbed to his current position and has many people flattering him. Li Yang is just a young girl working in a factory. Where does she get the confidence from?
He looked at Li Jianren, who was acting like a quail, and sneered, "Minister Li, your niece is quite impressive."
Li Jianren, who had been called out by name, had to look up. He cursed Li Yang inwardly for being naive, but he put on a smile for Xu Weiguo, "Xiao Yang is young and impulsive, don't mind it." He then looked at Li Yang and warned her with his eyes, "We're trying to persuade Xiaoxue, so don't make things worse. Go out for a walk with Xiao...Xiao Ji."
Li Yang leaned back and said, "Well, I'll go after we've discussed the divorce."
He looked completely unmoved.
Xu Xiangxi, who was watching from the side, couldn't help herself. She didn't understand why her mother and brother didn't say a word when they met Li Yang and Ji Huaizhi. She raised her voice and said, "If you want a divorce, then divorce. Do you think my family values you? If your Li family hadn't begged us, would my brother have married her? She's a money-loser who can't even give birth to a son!"
Xu Xiangxi's words were so vicious that even Li Jianyue and his wife, who had originally wanted to mediate, changed their expressions.
This sister-in-law really doesn't take them seriously.
Li Yang glanced back at Li Jianyue and his wife and sneered, "Uncle, Xu Xiangxi dared to do this in front of you. You can imagine how she treats my cousin normally."
Xu Xiangxi ignored Zhang Xiuying's wink and continued, "I'm telling the truth. It's like someone is bullying her!"
Her voice was so loud that it woke up her sleeping son, who opened his eyes and burst into tears.
Xu Xiangxi glared at Li Yang unhappily and lowered her head to coax her son. However, the child was stubborn and struggled in her arms regardless of Xu Xiangxi's coaxing.
During the struggle, a piece of jade green tied to a red string fell out. Li Yang saw it, narrowed his eyes, and said sternly: "Why do you have this jade?"
