Xu Weiming looked at her impatiently, "So what do you want? You can't have children yourself, so you won't let others have them either?" Since he already knew, he stopped pretending.
If it weren't for Xiaoyan's growing belly and his fear of upsetting their unborn son, he wouldn't have bothered arguing with Zou Yu. He could have just settled down outside and let her stay in the village by herself.
"That's right, you can't have children yourself, do you want your third son to be childless? If you know what's good for you, get a divorce quickly, otherwise, hmph, see how I deal with you." Chen Chunfeng already knew that her youngest son had found someone outside, and she was originally not satisfied, after all, he was from another province.
However, all her dissatisfaction disappeared after she heard that Xiaoyan was having a boy. Boys are good, her first child was a boy, which means her son is amazing!
"Mom, how can you act like an elder? Ah, your son goes out and cheats on his wife, and you, as his mother, are here clapping and cheering. I've really seen through your Xu family; none of them are good people."
If Zou Yu were to name the person she hates most, it would definitely be Xu Weiming, and second on the list would be that old hag Chen Chunfeng. She'd already bullied her at home, and now she was forcing her to divorce him. Of course, she'd been considering divorce herself, but she certainly wasn't going to let them get away with it so easily; after all, she wasn't exactly a saint!
"Hey, how can you talk like that? No matter what, I'm your elder. You have no manners. No wonder my son wants to divorce you. Instead of reflecting on what you did wrong, you dare to hold a grudge. You deserve it."
Chen Chunfeng pointed at Zou Yu and said fiercely, she knew that Zou Yu was dragging her feet on the divorce just for money. No way, this money was all earned by her son through hard work, and she wouldn't give her a single penny.
Zou Yu took a deep breath. She knew she couldn't let Chen Chunfeng lead her astray. Since the divorce was definitely going to happen today, she had to fight for her best interests.
She looked up at Xu Weiming seriously, noticing his impatient expression. Ha, it's really stupid to talk about feelings with a man; money is much more practical.
"I'm willing to get a divorce, it just depends on how you appease me."
As Zou Yu spoke, she was mentally calculating how much money she should ask for. Although she didn't know exactly how much money Xu Weiming had earned, she had once heard him mention that he had bought a house when he was drunk at home. She had inquired about it and found that a house would cost at least 30,000 to 40,000 yuan, and he should have 20,000 to 30,000 yuan in cash as well. So, asking for 20,000 yuan wouldn't be unreasonable, right?
Xu Weiming frowned and said impatiently, "You just want money, right? Here, two thousand yuan is fine! Give me the money and we'll go get the divorce certificate right away."
“Son, don’t give her the money. How dare she ask for it? You’re working so hard outside to earn money, what is she doing at home? Why should we give her any money?” Chen Chunfeng immediately jumped in to object when he heard that Zou Yu was to be given two thousand yuan.
Zou Yu has really learned something new today; how could he say such shameless things?
"Is it that I don't want to go out with him? Ah, do you think I want to stay in the village and argue with you, an old woman, every day? Ha, your whole family is shameless, and you still have the nerve to talk about me like that."
At this point, Zou Yu laughed, scrutinizing Xu Weiming closely, and clicked her tongue twice. "Two thousand? You're trying to fob me off! Don't think I don't know you bought a house outside, oh, or maybe not one, but two!"
Then he turned to Chen Chunfeng and said sarcastically, "You always say how filial and good your youngest son is, but why don't you see him take you to live in the new house? It's a new house in a big city, bright and clean, incomparable to the ones in the village."
Chen Chunfeng was intrigued and looked at Xu Weiming with longing eyes. She had never lived in the city before. If she could live in the city, wouldn't all the women in the village be green with envy?
Seeing his mother's state, Xu Weiming suppressed his urge to get angry and said in a low voice, "Mom, the important thing now is to get her to agree to the divorce. We can talk about that later."
Then he looked at Zou Yu, as if he was doing her a favor, and said, "Two thousand is not a small amount. Don't be too greedy. I don't know who told you that I have a house. It's rented."
Without saying a word, Zou Yu immediately ran into the yard and shouted loudly, "Everyone come and see! Xu Weiming is really something else. He wants to divorce his wife for some slut outside, and my good mother-in-law is even helping her son to coerce me into divorce. I've really learned something new."
As soon as Xu Weiming saw her run out, he knew something bad was going to happen, so he immediately chased after her, but he still couldn't stop Zou Yu.
Just then, He Bixia, who lived next door, was making curtain clips in her yard. Upon hearing Zou Yu's words, she immediately stood up and shouted, "Oh dear, Xiaoyu, what's going on? Why are you getting a divorce? It's okay for the young couple to quarrel, but you can't mention divorce."
"Aunt He, it's me..."
Just as Zou Yu was about to say something, Xu Weiming covered her mouth and whispered in her ear, "Don't talk nonsense outside. Let's go inside and have a proper talk."
Chen Chunfeng frowned and looked at He Bixia next to the courtyard. "Old woman He, don't go around talking nonsense. It's just that Zou Yu is ignorant and talks about every little thing. I must have had the worst luck in eight lifetimes to have such a daughter-in-law."
He Bixia looked at Zou Yu, who was being pulled back into the house, and pursed her lips. Whether she believed it or not, only she knew in her heart. It seemed that there was going to be some excitement in their village.
Watching Xu Weiming turn around and lock the door, Zou Yu, who was inside the room, couldn't help but sneer, "What? Trying to kill me to silence me?"
Xu Weiming frowned and looked at her, saying helplessly, "Zou Yu, you don't need to be so sharp-tongued. It won't do you any good. Let's part amicably and not make things too ugly. After all, you still have to get married in the future."
"Are you threatening me?" Zou Yu narrowed her eyes, thinking that she had already found another job anyway, so who was afraid of who!
"I'm not threatening you, but since we can't make it work anymore, wouldn't it be better to part ways amicably? Making things ugly won't benefit anyone, will it?"
Zou Yu shrugged and said directly, "Then give me 50,000? I'll divorce you right away and go back to my parents' home tomorrow."
"Fifty thousand? Zou Yu, are you crazy? Where would I get that much money? Don't go too far." Xu Weiming didn't expect Zou Yu to have accurately calculated his savings. He didn't know if she really knew or if it was just a coincidence. Either way, it was impossible for her to give him that much.
Zou Yu plopped down on the bed, smiling as she looked at Xu Weiming. "Don't think I don't know you bought that house yourself. I know that if we get divorced, you'll have to give me my share of the money. Besides, I can wait, but can your mistress's belly wait? What do you think about me reporting her? Maybe she won't even have a chance to be born!"
"Zou Yu, how could you become so vicious?" Xu Weiming looked at Zou Yu in disbelief, as if he didn't recognize the person in front of him.
