Chapter 1632 New Marriage 6
After getting married, Chief of Staff Wang joined the army. He had no contact with his family for several years, so he was arranged by the army to marry Xie Hongmei, a young nurse who took good care of him at the time. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, he returned home in glory. His original wife, Li, gave birth to a daughter, Wang Xiuhua, who was already ten years old.
In his hometown, his original wife took care of his parents and raised their daughter, while his new lover gave birth to children for him.
Moreover, compared with the peasant woman Li, who had rough hands and feet and a rough face, the new-age woman Xie Hongmei was literate and had an outstanding appearance.
Chief of Staff Wang decisively chose the latter and divorced his original wife.
Because Xie Hongmei gave birth to a son for Chief of Staff Wang, the balance in the hearts of Wang's parents, who had received ten years of filial piety from their daughter-in-law, instantly tilted towards Xie Hongmei and their two older grandsons. They were also proud that their new daughter-in-law had gone to school and learned medical skills, so instead of persuading Chief of Staff Wang to cherish their old relationship, they ordered Li and her son to part ways amicably, and asked the elders and fellow villagers to act as lobbyists for them. In the end, they shamelessly allowed Li to divorce but not leave home.
Divorcing but not leaving home was a good idea for the old couple. They didn't want to disturb their son's new life, and they were reluctant to order around the new daughter-in-law who had given birth to a boy for the Wang family. Some people felt inferior when leaving their hometown and were afraid of the outside world. It would be different if they kept Li at home. After Li came into the family, she had been working hard and could continue to wash clothes, cook, take care of them in their old age, and see them to the end of their lives. It was simply killing two birds with one stone.
Li was so humiliated that she was so depressed that she hanged herself with a hemp rope in the main hall of the Wang family.
"It is said that her eyes were bulging out and her tongue was sticking out so long that Xie Hongmei, who was visiting her parents with Chief of Staff Wang, was almost scared to death!" Peng Aihong sighed, "Wang Xiuhua was a hot-tempered person. She grabbed a knife and chopped Xie Hongmei. Now she has a long, deep scar on her face. That's why you haven't seen Xie Hongmei in the past year. She doesn't like to go out."
Feng Qingxue felt a little admiration in her heart. Well done, that's how it should be done!
However, she looked very surprised and said, "So powerful? Chief of Staff Wang also allowed Wang Xiuhua to come?"
"It's impossible not to allow it. After her mother passed away, Wang Xiuhua has been following Chief of Staff Wang. Wherever Chief of Staff Wang goes, she follows. If they don't allow her to follow, she will threaten to fight to the death with them. At worst, she will kill them and pay with her life. So Chief of Staff Wang and Xie Hongmei were scared. They still have two sons. Because of her violent temper, Xiuhua is in her thirties and has not married yet. No, I heard that she has a boyfriend and is preparing to get married, so she brought her son-in-law to see Chief of Staff Wang. It seems that the son-in-law is of a high rank."
"It's not about preparing money for marriage. It seems like they are already married and just going through the motions." Ding Min corrected Peng Aihong's statement, "If I'm not mistaken, Wang Xiuhua must be here to ask her father for a dowry."
Feng Qingxue didn't take it to heart at first; she wasn't the type to meddle in other people's business.
Unexpectedly, there were visitors at home in the evening. Wan Xinguo came to visit with his wife, and his wife's name happened to be Wang Xiuhua.
Ever since Chen Chen cheated on him during marriage, Wan Xinguo has been unable to get over the trauma. The army later introduced him to several partners but none of them worked out. He never heard of his marriage until he was discharged from the army. He never expected that he would find his true love after his discharge from the army.
"Sister-in-law, this is my wife Xiuhua, her last name is Wang." Wan Xinguo's face was full of smiles as he introduced her.
Although his temples were gray, his face was wrinkled, and he was weathered from years of stationing at the border, he was in high spirits and it was obvious that he loved his wife.
