"I'm incompetent, but you are? If you're so capable, why don't you send your child there? If you're so capable, why don't you suffer with me? You think this place is shabby and I'm poor? Then leave! I'll tie your legs and force you to live with me!" Li Xingguo had had enough and responded to Dong Yun's accusations for the first time.
Dong Yun was stunned for a moment. Ever since she moved here, she had been blaming Li Xingguo every day for ruining her and the child. Li Xingguo also seemed to be blaming himself, but no matter what she said, he never responded.
"I married a man for food and clothing. I gave birth to your children, so you should treat my mother and me well and give us the best life!"
"Give me children? Aren't the children yours? Don't you expect them to support you in your old age? If the children become successful in the future, won't it have anything to do with you?"
After you married me, how many days did you work? How many women in the city don't work? With our family in such dire straits, what have you done besides complaining about me?
"If you really love the child, go out and earn money to support him. What are you expecting me to do?" Li Xingguo asked, his eyes wide.
"I, I, you, you, you think we're a burden now, right?" Dong Yun is so old, all she can find are nannies, cleaners, dishwashing, and vegetable washing jobs.
Although she hadn't lived a life of great wealth and luxury over the years, she had been quite pampered. She felt ashamed to do those things and refused to be ordered around, so she forced Li Xingguo at home.
Li Xingguo is broke, but his family is. Even though they've verbally severed ties, he's still a son of the Li family. Why should the Li family be rich and powerful while she has to do such a lowly job?
If Li Xingguo didn't want to live like this, he would definitely try to ease the tension with his family, even if it was like before, so that they could go there anytime and Xiaoyuer could stay there permanently. It didn't matter if she suffered here, at least the child wouldn't have to suffer.
"Yes, I am disgusted. You're like a maggot, crawling around in a cesspool every day. I don't think what you say is right or reasonable. I just don't want to talk to you. Seeing you annoys everyone else. When you touch me, I feel like I've touched shit. It's disgusting." Li Xingguo's face was full of disgust, and malice was revealed in his eyes.
This was the first time in so many years of marriage that Li Xingguo had shown such disgust, which chilled Dong Yun to the bone.
"You really hate me that much?" Dong Yun asked incredulously.
"Your existence constantly reminds me that I'm an idiot. I'm a college student from the 1980s, a high-achieving student, and a cadre in my workplace. Even if we're divorced, I shouldn't have married a stupid pig like you. Just because we're married doesn't mean you're some kind of ancestor, and I have to cater to you and everyone has to serve you!"
He was willing to support Wang Yue back then because she was really beautiful and knew how to flatter him. His family was poor at the time, and Wang Yue looked down on his family. He also felt that his family was far inferior to him and would hold him back. However, he acknowledged Wang Yue's comments about his family.
Dong Yun is of average appearance, and has a cunning, mean, stingy, selfish, and showy personality. Apart from never having been married, she has no other redeeming qualities.
If I had known I would come back to find a woman like this, I would have preferred Huang Rou from the island. Although she was not as well-off, at least she was shrewd and wouldn't have let him keep making stupid mistakes.
Even Wang Yue is pragmatic.
Li Xingguo now feels that all women in the world are better than Dong Yun. How could he be so unlucky as to marry such a woman? How could he have trusted the old lady? What kind of good girl could an uneducated old lady introduce to him?
Dong Yun's swollen lips trembled as she said, "You still look down on me? I'm a young woman marrying a divorced old man like you, and you still dare to look down on me?"
"With your qualifications, if you weren't a young woman, you wouldn't even be qualified to go on a blind date with me. I was just too eager for a stable life back then." Li Xingguo was filled with regret. This woman had ruined him and his child.
