Xu Jie let out a long breath, feeling that he couldn't make sense with Wang Fengying. "Mom, no matter how you scold me, she can share the property with me if we divorce, and I can also share it with her, but she has no property in her name at all, how can we share it?"
Wang Fengying's eyes rolled and a plan came to her mind, "Why don't you just transfer all the property under your name to us?"
The more Wang Fengying thought about it, the better she thought this was. She kept trying to persuade her son, "Besides anything else, the money for buying the house was what your father and I worked so hard to save our entire lives. She hasn't made any contribution to our family, so why should she want our house? Anyway, only your name is on the property certificate, so we can just do it quietly.
Don't worry about the houses and fields in the village, she can't take any of them!"
Xu Jie couldn't resist his mother's nagging and really followed her to get this done.
At this time, Xu Fangfang was unaware of anything. She had just got off work and bought some things to go back to her parents' home.
Xu Fangfang's parents' home is just outside Pingxi Town, and more than 80% of the people here have the surname Xu.
Father and Mother Xu were surprised to see her coming over after work, and there was no joy on her face.
Xu's mother, Zhao Jinmei, grabbed Xu Fangfang's hand and scolded her with a stern face, "I heard that you and your son-in-law are having a conflict again. What's wrong with you? If you can't have a baby, go see a doctor. What's the point of dragging it out like this?"
Xu Fangfang was not a good-tempered person to begin with. Upon hearing this, she immediately turned her face away from Zhao Jinmei, angrily carried her things into the house, and sat down on the bench. "What are you looking at? Xu Jie is not cooperating at all. His mother is also sick. She came up and said that I am a hen that doesn't lay eggs. What? This inability to have children is just my problem? Why doesn't she suspect that her son is sick!"
"Hey! How dare you say anything, you damned girl!" Zhao Jinmei looked around fearfully, and when she saw that there was no one outside the door, she breathed a sigh of relief, slowed down her tone, and advised earnestly: "Child, listen to my advice, women can't be too strong, you have to give men face, otherwise the marriage will not last!"
Xu Fangfang pushed up her glasses and sneered, "Mom, if the marriage is not going well, you can just get a divorce. Can a living person be suffocated to death?"
"You, you, you are talking nonsense again! Marriage is not a joke. You can't just get divorced whenever you want. Why did you get married in the first place?" Zhao Jinmei was almost mad at her daughter.
Xu Fangfang started to argue with her, "Can I just say that I was young and ignorant at the time? Mom, I'm telling you the truth. If I can't live like this, I will definitely get a divorce. The worst that can happen is that I won't get married like my cousin did."
Zhao Jinmei slapped Xu Fangfang on the thigh and glared angrily, "Your cousin is already a headache enough, and you are still fooling around with her. Go away, go back quickly, stop irritating me here, I'm annoyed to see you."
Xu Fangfang just didn't want to go back and see Xu Jie. Tomorrow was Saturday and she didn't have to go to work. She thought about it, gritted her teeth, went out, and caught the last bus to the city.
The national highways are now better built, and the shaky buses from before have been upgraded. It only takes a little over an hour to get to the city center, so you don’t have to suffer any hardship.
Until she got in the car and left, neither her parents' nor her in-laws' family noticed that she had run away.
Xu Fangfang contacted Xu Jiahui only after she arrived in the city.
After Xu Jiahui met her, she immediately took her home on her motorcycle. On the way, she couldn't help but complain, "You said you were coming over but you didn't tell me in advance. It's already dark at this time. I want to go to the market to buy some ingredients for you to cook, but I don't have time."
"Whatever you want to buy, I just come to your place to have some peace and quiet." Xu Fangfang sat in the back seat of the car, holding Xu Jiahui's waist. The cold wind made her feverish brain clearer.
Xu Jiahui was a little surprised, "What happened? Did you quarrel with your brother-in-law again?"
"Don't mention it! What brother-in-law? I guess he won't be one soon." Xu Fangfang muttered angrily.
Xu Jiahui instinctively knew something was wrong. After the two entered the house, she first called the restaurant downstairs and asked them to send up some food and drinks. Then she got pajamas for Xu Fangfang and said, "Go take a shower and change into comfortable clothes. We'll eat and talk later."
The two grew up together. Xu Fangfang would not be polite with her. After she finished cleaning up and sat on the sofa, she began to complain to Xu Jiahui non-stop.
"You said we've been married for a few years, and I wasted my youth on him. If he hadn't been so persistent, I wouldn't have given in. I thought I had found true love, but it turned out he was a beast in human form. Look, he even hit me!"
Xu Fangfang pulled up her sleeves, revealing the shocking scars on her body.
Xu Jiahui was shocked and furious, "Have you told your aunt?"
Xu Fangfang sneered and put down her sleeves. "What's the difference between saying it and not saying it? Will she support my divorce?"
Xu Jiahui choked and had nothing to say. The elders in her hometown were all honest, timid and cowardly people. Even though they loved their daughter, they could not change their inherent ideas. Fortunately, she had her own house, so no matter how dissatisfied her parents were, they could not do anything to her.
"Then what are you going to do? Continue to get entangled with him?" Xu Jiahui asked.
Xu Fangfang shook her head and slowly lowered her eyes, "What do you think about my divorce?"
Xu Jiahui supported it without thinking twice.
Xu Fangfang was troubled again, "But if I get divorced, my parents will definitely not forgive me. What if they don't want to accept me as their divorced daughter?"
Xu Jiahui was happy. "Sister, you are an elementary school teacher after all. What's so difficult about this? Take the teacher selection exam and get into the city. Then come directly to the city. Uncle and aunt will be angry for a while, but can they make you angry for the rest of your life?
Besides, you are still young, you can start a new life in the city. Let's open our eyes and find a reliable one this time. When you bring your new partner back, will your uncle and aunt still bring up the past with you? "
The confusion in Xu Fangfang's eyes gradually faded, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. "Jiahui, I find that you are still amazing. You have been to a big city and seen the world, so your ideas are different. I will listen to you."
There just so happens that there will be an internal teacher selection at the beginning of next year, and she can sign up for the exam. If she passes, she can leave Pingxi Town, and it won't be too late to file for divorce then.
With an idea in mind, Xu Fangfang felt much better. She finally had the energy to care about other things. She noticed the wedding candy on the table and asked, "Is it given by our relatives?"
Xu Jiahui shook her head, "No, it's my college roommate who is getting married. The man is my other roommate's older cousin. The man is also from Anshi, and I heard his hometown is also in Pingxi Town.
You know, when I was in school, I didn’t even recognize all the people in the village. After graduation, I stayed in Anshi and went back less than three or four times a year. Pingxi Town is so big, but I have never heard of this family.
But after all, we are from the same place, and we can meet often in the future, which is good.”
Xu Jiahui smiled when she mentioned Tang Jing's wedding. (End of this chapter)
