Chapter 316 Marriage is not a must in life
After school at noon, Yaya took Huo Jiusi and waited for Xu Rui in the corridor.
Xu Rui was in a bad state the whole morning. He was always distracted in class. When the teacher called him to answer questions, he either couldn't answer them or his answers were irrelevant, so he was made to stand in the back as punishment.
If it were any other time, he would feel very upset if he was punished to stand, but today he didn't care at all whether he was punished or not. He was only thinking about his parents' divorce.
Yaya and Huo Jiusi waited for a long time before they saw Xu Rui coming out of the classroom. Yaya waved at him vigorously: "Brother Ruirui."
Xu Rui walked slowly to Yaya and Huo Jiusi and asked, "Why haven't you left yet?"
Every day Huo Jiusi took Yaya away early, and he would not be able to catch up if he was a step late.
"Brother Ruirui, we are waiting for you."
Yaya pulled Xu Rui's hand: "Brother Ruirui, what's wrong with you?"
Xu Rui didn't want to say anything, he just kept walking forward with his head down.
After leaving the school gate, Xu Rui pulled his hand away from Yaya and waved to her: "Goodbye, Yaya."
"Where are you going to eat lunch?" Huo Jiusi suddenly asked.
Xu Rui was stunned for a moment, then replied, "The cafeteria."
"Then come home with us to eat."
Regardless of whether Xu Ruitong agreed or not, Huo Jiusi pulled him onto their bus.
After getting off the bus, you still have to walk for a while before getting to Yue's house.
Huo Jiusi held Yaya and walked in front, while Xu Rui followed behind like a wandering soul.
Huo Jiusi suddenly stopped, turned around and looked at Xu Rui: "What on earth do you want?"
Xu Rui couldn't hold it in any longer. He squatted down, hugged his knees and started crying: "My mom wants to divorce my dad. From now on, I will be a wild child that no one wants."
Yaya and Huo Jiusi looked at each other. Yaya was a little shocked, but Huo Jiusi didn't feel anything about it.
"Brother Ruirui, please stop crying."
Yaya went forward to give her handkerchief to Xu Rui, but was pulled back by Huo Jiusi, who then gave his handkerchief to Xu Rui instead.
"We haven't divorced yet, why are you crying? Crying won't solve the problem. If crying can make your parents change their minds, then cry as much as you can."
Huo Jiusi only loses his rationality when it comes to Yaya's affairs. At other times he is extremely calm.
Xu Rui sobbed twice, and without taking Huo Jiusi's handkerchief, he just used the sleeve of his cotton-padded jacket to wipe away his tears and snot.
Yaya looked a little disgusted and took a step back.
"Brother Ruirui, why did Aunt Miaomiao want to divorce Uncle Xu?"
Xu Rui shook his head: "I don't know. They had a fight and divorced before. My mom found a job and my dad was unhappy and didn't let her go to work."
"How can this be possible? Uncle Xu is wrong."
Yaya stood on Kang Zhimiao's side: "Everyone has to work. How can Uncle Xu not let Aunt Miaomiao go to work?"
"Why do people have to work?" Xu Rui's focus shifted: "I don't want to work in the future."
"If you don't work, how will you live?" Yaya tilted her head and looked at Xu Rui.
Xu Rui thought for a moment and said, "It's just like my dad and my mom. My dad makes money and my mom stays at home. Then I can stay at home and let my wife make money."
Yaya didn't know how to evaluate Xu Rui: "Brother Ruirui, you really are...special."
"Look how relaxed my mother is at home..."
Yaya interrupted Xu Rui: "Brother Ruirui, what you said is not right. How could Aunt Miaomiao be idle at home? Do you know how much housework there is?"
"Isn't it just cooking, washing clothes, and washing dishes?" Xu Rui counted on his fingers and said, "Every time my dad talks about my mom, he always says that my mom only cooks a little, washes some clothes, and at most washes dishes when she's at home."
"Do you know how many steps there are to cooking? Do you know how many times you need to rinse clothes? Your house is quite big, and Aunt Miaomiao is the only one busy in such a big house. Is the house so clean because the wind blew away all the dirt on the tables and furniture?"
"Don't you see your mother cleaning the house?"
Xu Rui nodded: "I see."
"So what else did you see?"
Xu Rui thought about it carefully: "I also saw my mother changing my bed sheets and tidying up the flowers and plants outside..."
"Yes, Aunt Miaomiao obviously did so much, how can you say she just washed clothes, cooked, and washed dishes?"
Yaya put her hands on her hips, her little face was very angry: "Brother Ruirui, you will hurt Aunt Miaomiao's heart if you say that. You deny her efforts and labor."
"Aunt Miaomiao has been at work these days, don't you feel anything different in your family?"
"Yes, our house is not as clean or tidy as it used to be."
Yaya spread her hands: "That's right, when it comes to housework, other people can't tell what you do, but they can definitely tell what you don't do."
"If you think housework is easy and your mother doesn't do anything at home every day, then try to do housework for a day. When you go home, try to wash the dishes and your own stinky socks. Do you think it is easy?"
"I now understand why Aunt Miaomiao wanted to divorce Uncle Xu. Uncle Xu didn't see Aunt Miaomiao's efforts and didn't know how to respect her."
Xu Rui's face fell: "I don't want my mom to divorce my dad."
"Brother Ruirui, let me ask you, do you think your mother and father are happy together?"
Xu Rui shook his head vigorously without hesitation: "Not happy. I haven't seen my mother smile for a long time. I secretly saw my mother crying several times."
"If your mother is unhappy, then she can divorce your father. Why do you insist on staying together if you are unhappy?"
Yaya held Xu Rui's hand and said, "Brother Ruirui, I believe Aunt Miaomiao will definitely not abandon you, but you can't let Aunt Miaomiao be trapped in an unhappy marriage for the rest of her life just for your own sake."
“Marriage is not a must in life, nor are children, but happiness is!”
Yaya's words not only influenced Kang Zhimiao's life, but also Xu Rui's life.
What Xu Rui has always been concerned about is: "Ya Ya, but after my parents divorced, we are no longer a family."
"No, Aunt Miaomiao and Uncle Xu are no longer husband and wife, but she is still your mother, and Uncle Xu is still your father. This will never change."
Kang Zhimiao said something similar to Xu Rui last night, but Xu Rui didn't listen. But he listened to what Yaya said today.
"Yaya, if my parents get divorced, will you laugh at me for being an unwanted wild child?"
“No way.” Yaya shook her head vigorously: “Brother Ruirui has a father and a mother, how can he be a wild child?”
"If Aunt Miaomiao and Uncle Xu are unhappy together and always quarrel, why don't they separate? Why do they have to torture each other all the time? Do you like such a family?"
