Chapter 138 Divorce
For lunch, Chen Yi made some cabbage stewed with tofu, and she bought the tofu in the morning.
She didn't have this thing in her space and she didn't know how to make it, so she had to buy it.
There were limited things at home, and there were two big roosters locked in the corner of the yard, which had been taken out a long time ago.
If there are guests at home, we can have some good food.
He Mingcheng quickly arranged the more than 200 kilograms of cabbage, and then went out to take a shower with the things.
Seeing how anxious he was, Chen Yi couldn't help but roll her eyes.
Every time this person comes back from a business trip, he takes a shower first.
Maybe he is just that clean?
Not long after the meal was ready, He Mingcheng came back.
He ate voraciously, as if someone was snatching the food from him.
Chen Yi couldn't help but ask, "Are you going on a business trip or fleeing famine?"
Isn’t this too scary?
He Mingcheng smiled, swallowed the food in his mouth, and said, "Isn't this the delicious food made by my wife?"
"Smooth talk." Chen Yi rolled her eyes and continued eating.
He Mingcheng chuckled, "Don't you just like my smooth talk?"
Chen Yi thought of something and glared at him!
He Mingcheng couldn't help it, and went over and gave a wicked smile.
…
The next morning, Chen Yi got up, had breakfast and went to work.
There's no other way, I have to go to work at this time.
He Mingcheng stayed at home. He had just returned from a business trip and had a few days of rest.
He cleaned the house inside and out and then washed the sheets.
While I was washing, I heard someone knocking on the door.
He walked over, opened the door and saw that it was Zhang Ying.
Zhang Ying was stunned for a moment, "You are back from your business trip? When did you come back?"
She originally came to find Chen Yi, but she didn't expect that it was He Mingcheng who opened the door.
And I didn't hear about him coming back, but suddenly the storefront was back.
He Mingcheng replied: "I came back yesterday."
Zhang Ying was furious when he saw him blocking the door. "You won't let me in? You're blocking me here."
He Mingcheng thought about it, then moved aside to let her in.
Zhang Ying glared at him angrily and said, "Those who know me think I'm your mother, but those who don't think I'm your stepmother!"
Yes, the way they get along is just like stepmother and stepson.
He Mingcheng didn't say anything either, just looked indifferent.
Walking into the yard, Zhang Ying saw bed sheets soaking in a basin and clothes hanging out to dry.
"You wash clothes?" She was a little surprised, and her tone couldn't help but rise.
"What's wrong with me washing clothes?" He Mingcheng frowned, then sat on the stool and continued to wash the sheets.
Seeing that he was used to it, Zhang Ying knew that he washed clothes regularly.
"How can you wash clothes? Washing clothes and doing housework are what women should do. Just leave them there! Let Chen Yi wash them when she gets home from get off work!" She said in a bad tone.
What is this all about? How can a man do housework?
It’s not like there are no jobs. Everyone works to support their families.
Besides, He Mingcheng's salary is not low, so there is no need for him to be so servile.
He Mingcheng was unmoved when he heard this. He continued to rub the sheets and said, "I would wash clothes even if I didn't find a wife. If I found a wife, I would be paralyzed or something!"
"You stupid kid! What are you talking about?" Zhang Ying was also angry and felt somewhat dissatisfied with Chen Yi.
At the same time, she was also wondering whether He Mingcheng said it on purpose for her to hear.
Because I was not around when the child was young, I never took care of the child from childhood to adulthood.
Thinking of this, she inexplicably felt a little guilty.
He Mingcheng ignored her and continued washing the sheets and hanging them up to dry.
Although the sun is shining brightly today, the weather is very cold.
After washing the clothes, his hands were frozen red.
The grown man never thought of boiling water to wash clothes, so he just washed them with cold water.
Zhang Ying looked at him with a frown, then turned his head away and stopped looking.
After finishing the cleaning, He Mingcheng turned around and asked, "Why did you come to see me? Just tell me what you want to say. I have to go out soon."
He wanted to see if there were any vegetables he needed to buy, otherwise all he would have to eat in the winter would be cabbage.
If you haven't bought potatoes and other vegetables at home yet, you should buy some.
When he lived alone before, he would exchange vegetables with people in the same village because he couldn’t grow vegetables due to work and had no time.
Zhang Ying saw that he did not welcome her at all, and although she was angry she could not say anything.
"Go back home when you have time. It's been a long time since I last visited."
"Your second brother and his family are getting divorced. Go back and try to persuade them."
Hearing this, He Mingcheng replied: "I persuade? Will my persuasion be useful?"
How can two people who didn't grow up together have feelings for each other? They are just a little better than strangers.
How should he start to persuade others?
Zhang Ying had a worried look on her face, even though her second son had been married for many years and had children.
But she is still very satisfied with Zhao Xue because her family and working conditions are very good.
It is definitely impossible to find someone like this after getting divorced.
Besides, she thought clearly, how many people can live happily after divorce?
So, she didn't want the two of them to get divorced.
"Mingcheng, Mom doesn't have to ask you to persuade her, just a few words will do."
He Mingcheng shook his head. "You figure it out yourself. I don't have any."
As he said that, he put on his clothes and said, "Are you going to leave or not? If not, I will leave."
Zhang Ying was so angry that he couldn't say a word, then turned and left.
I shouldn't have told him these things, it only made myself angry!
He Mingcheng didn't bother to pay attention to her and just pushed his bicycle away.
In the afternoon, Chen Yi came back from get off work and happened to meet Zhang Ying on the way.
She looked at the man and guessed that it was not a coincidence that they met him, but he was waiting for him on purpose.
"Mom, why are you here?" She stopped her bike and greeted her.
Zhang Ying pursed her lips and said, "Your second sister-in-law and her husband want to divorce. I thought of cooking a meal tomorrow and asking you and Chengzi to go and persuade them."
Chen Yi was a little surprised. Why did they get divorced?
Before, she saw that although Zhao Xue's condition was not good, she didn't look like she was going to get a divorce.
After all, there are children at home, and divorce is rare these days.
"Why did you suddenly get divorced?" she asked knowingly.
Zhang Ying sighed, "It's because your second brother is not doing his best and is fooling around outside! Forget it, there's no point in saying this now."
Before, she thought that children were just for fun, and she had never taken care of the children in the family after being married for so many years.
But when she heard that she was going to get a divorce, she became a little restless.
Hearing this, Chen Yi said nothing and nodded, "Okay, we'll go there tomorrow."
Thinking about Zhao Xue's condition, I actually feel that divorce is better.
But whether to get a divorce or not is their own business. They just need to be there and not let others argue.
After getting the correct answer, Zhang Ying went home. It was time to get off work, and if she was not at home, He Jianlin would probably make trouble again.
Watching her mother-in-law leave, Chen Yi felt no wavering in her heart.
The only difference between the Chen family and the He family is that the Chen family takes care of He Mingcheng and at least finds him a job.
Unlike the Chen family, the stepmother was always afraid that she would go back to fight for the family property, fearing that she would get nothing, just like she was guarding against a wolf.
