Chapter 004 Divorce Conditions
"Comrade, come and have a smoke."
Pei Xiangyang took out another box of Zhonghua cigarettes, took out two cigarettes, gave one to the man at the marriage registration office, and held one in his own hand.
He lit up the comrade's fire again, then sighed:
"I don't want to divorce either. You don't know that I'm away from home all year round, and she's living a life of widowhood at home. I want to take her with me to enjoy life. She's a country girl who can't read a word. She's completely in the dark in the city. She can even get lost when buying vegetables. It's totally impossible."
"I thought it would be better to divorce her early while she is still young, give her a large sum of money, and let her find a good man to live with. I am doing this for her own good."
Pei Xiangyang looked embarrassed.
Bai Zhenzhu has attended high school. If Pei Xiangyang hadn't coaxed her into a relationship, she might have been able to get into a normal school and become a teacher like her third brother Bai Jingsi.
She let Pei Xiangyang criticize her to no avail without any explanation.
The harder he devalues it now, the more painful it will be for him to pay out later.
The two comrades at the registration office looked at Bai Zhenzhu and saw the woman with her head down, rubbing the corner of her clothes and her shoulders twitching slightly. They felt very sorry for her.
The female comrade rolled her eyes at Pei Xiangyang. They had just seen the red car parked outside and the woman inside it.
This man said nice things, but now that he is rich, doesn't he look down on the yellow-faced woman from his hometown in the countryside?
In this day and age, divorce is not only a big deal, but also a shameful one, something that brings shame to eight generations of ancestors.
The Marriage Registry has been established for so many years, and the number of divorce cases it has handled can be counted on one hand.
This is a divorce. The man can go out and make a living, but how can the woman who stays in the village survive?
The eyes and saliva of others alone can drown a person. It's bullshit that it's for the good of women. It's clearly forcing women to die.
"Sister, tell me, are you getting a divorce voluntarily?" Lesbians have strong empathy, and Pei Xiangyang looks like Chen Shimei to them: "Now the law protects women and children. If you don't want to divorce, we will mediate and persuade your man."
Bai Zhenzhu raised her head, her face covered with tears.
The two comrades at the registration office were both startled when they saw her face.
I originally thought that this woman was ugly, and I thought that the man must have found a beautiful one after making some money outside. But I didn't expect that the woman in front of me was not only not ugly, but also very beautiful.
From the moment she entered the house until now, she has been sobbing even though she is about to be divorced. If it were another woman, she would have cried so loudly that the entire township government would have heard her. It would have been a blessing if she didn't scratch Chen Shimei's face.
She is beautiful and has a good temper, but this man actually despises her.
"Comrade, thank you. I am divorcing voluntarily." Bai Zhenzhu said with tears streaming down her face.
She doesn't shout or scream, but she is more likely to arouse people's sympathy.
Not to mention others, even Pei Xiangyang couldn't bear it when he saw it, and couldn't help feeling proud again, because most of the unhappiness caused by Bai Zhenzhu's agreement to divorce was gone.
Bai Zhenzhu wiped her tears with a handkerchief and forced a smile that was uglier than crying:
"Comrade, I don't understand what procedures are required for divorce. Could you please explain it to me?"
Seeing her like this, the female comrade felt even more sympathetic and asked again with concern:
"Are you really doing this voluntarily? I'm telling you that you need to think it over carefully. Women are no different from men. In any case, divorced women suffer."
Then he glared at Pei Xiangyang again:
"Besides, your man has obviously made a lot of money, wouldn't it be a big loss for you to divorce him now?"
"I really did it voluntarily. No one forced me. My man's heart is not with me. There is no point in living like this. I agree to divorce."
Bai Zhenzhu's eyes were red from crying. She was crying only to get favorable conditions for herself when signing the agreement later. It was not because she couldn't bear to leave this bastard. Now she wanted a divorce more urgently than this bastard.
But it is not easy to get a divorce now. You have to register and apply first, then go through mediation, and then review and approval before you can finally get a divorce certificate.
Pei Xiangyang didn't want to go back and forth several times just to get a divorce. He was afraid of being framed, so he put away the fake smile on his face and revealed his true face:
"Comrade, we really can't make ends meet. I have opened a big company outside. What help can she, a rural woman, give me?"
"Don't try to persuade me. Even if you don't process it for me, I will just leave for eight or ten years and never come back and not give her any money. What can you do to me? If she becomes a widow and suffers, it will be your fault."
When the female comrade heard this, her face darkened and she slammed the table:
"How can you talk like that? Where is your loyalty to your marriage and your responsibility to your family? Now that you are rich, you abandon your wife and children. This behavior is shameful and immoral. People like you should be severely criticized and judged!"
Pei Xiangyang put the mobile phone in his hand on the desk, and with a thud, he snorted in a sarcastic tone:
"If I'm not responsible, I won't come back to get a divorce. You're just clerks, so just do the work you're given. We've asked all these questions, and we've mediated all this. Stop wasting time, and get us the divorce certificate right away. You can't afford to pay me for the delay in my big business."
After that, he picked up the mobile phone, poked it a few times, put it to his face and started making a call:
"Boss Zhao, I'm busy right now. Put the two million project aside for now. We'll talk about it when I get back."
The two comrades at the registration office looked at each other and their expressions became serious.
If Bai Zhenzhu had not been reborn, she might have been deceived by Pei Xiangyang's pretentious behavior.
Mobile phones were not yet popular at that time, and the signal tower in the county was not built until four years later.
The signal light on Pei Xiangyang's mobile phone was red, which meant there was no signal at all.
After finishing the call, Pei Xiangyang looked at the comrades in the office with an unhappy face:
"As you can see, I'm very busy. I have so many big deals waiting for me to make the final decision. Let's not waste time on such a small matter."
The female lesbian wanted to say something, but the smoking male lesbian stopped her:
"Why don't you ask them how they came to the agreement first?"
The male comrades were also shocked by Pei Xiangyang's style. The big Santana mobile phone would be a big deal in Chengdu, not to mention in the countryside.
He didn't dare to persuade such a person. Just as Pei Xiangyang himself said, if he just left, what would he do if the woman and child were left unattended and came to cause trouble for them?
Pei Xiangyang looked arrogant:
"I don't want anything. I'll give her all the savings and her dowry, as well as our son. I'll also give her 200 yuan a month in child support."
Two hundred yuan is not a small amount of money, and it does sound generous.
However, Pei Xiangyang's behavior of not wanting his son earned him a few cold stares from the female comrades:
"Is there nothing else besides child support? A grown woman married you for several years and gave birth to your son. Now that you have money, you just say you don't want her anymore. Does she deserve to be bullied by you?"
Who gets divorced these days? Some women just grit their teeth and endure being beaten every day at home and are unwilling to divorce. Many people in rural areas don't even have the concept of divorce.
The girl in front of me, Bai Zhenzhu, looks so young and has done nothing wrong, but it is obvious that she was forced to divorce.
Since she was willing to leave, the lesbian wanted to fight for her:
"Didn't you just say you would give her a large sum of money? How much?"
Bai Zhenzhu looked at the female comrade opposite her with gratitude. In her previous life, this female comrade also helped her get divorce compensation.
But she was too stupid at that time and it was just a formality. Pei Xiangyang not only didn't give her a penny, he also cheated away the money given by Xia Lili.
In order to get a divorce quickly, Pei Xiangyang naturally kept making big promises. Otherwise, if the director of the women's department got involved, the marriage might not be able to be divorced today.
"Twenty thousand, am I being nice enough?"
The two comrades were both stunned when they heard this number. The lumber mill in the town earns eight yuan a day, and the workers there only make about two hundred yuan a month. A dual-income family would need ten years to save up twenty thousand yuan.
For rural people who work hard to make a living from the fields, 20,000 is an astronomical figure.
Bai Zhenzhu couldn't even spend all the money to build a bungalow.
If a divorced woman has money or a house, her life will not be too difficult.
The female comrade sighed and looked at Bai Zhenzhu:
"Do you agree to this condition? You have to think it over carefully. If you get divorced, you will no longer have any relationship."
The main reason is that this man is so rich. Even if Bai Zhenzhu relies on her beauty to look for another man, she will definitely not be able to find someone like him with a child.
I feel sorry for her and I feel pity for her.
Bai Zhenzhu nodded with red eyes:
"I agree, but I have a request."
"you say."
"I want him to pay ten years' child support in one lump sum, and both payments must be made immediately."
