Chapter 913: Dealing with Mother-in-law
"Just tell me, am I any good at fighting? If it were any other woman in this situation, I wouldn't be able to defeat these two."
Xu Hui stood up and just as he turned around, his sight froze. Xiang Meijuan was frantically wiping her tears.
Xu Hui turned around again and said calmly: "If you can cry, then cry. You need to vent it out."
She didn't know that Xiang Meijuan was crying not because the mistress came to her house today.
Xiang Meijuan wiped away her tears, looked up at Xu Hui, and suddenly asked, "Did you two get your marriage certificate secretly?"
"ah?"
Xu Hui froze, and turned his head half a beat late, his face showing confusion: "What certificate?"
Xiang Meijuan scolded her coldly: "Stop playing tricks on me. Tell me the truth. When did you register?"
Xu Hui's face was not embarrassed at all, and he whispered back, "Just a while ago."
Xiang Meijuan was furious: "When exactly was it? How come I, as a mother, didn't know anything about it?"
Xu Hui raised his head, pretending to think carefully, and then replied: "It seems like two years ago."
Xiang Meijuan was stunned.
Xu Hui hurriedly said: "I asked Ji Chuan to hide it from you. I originally wanted to wait until I graduated from university and got my diploma before letting Ji Chuan tell you. The main thing is that you didn't..."
Before she could finish her words, Xiang Meijuan interrupted her sharply, "You guys also held the wedding secretly?"
Xu Hui immediately shook his head: "That's impossible. We have been keeping our marriage secret. Not only you don't know, but no one else knows either."
Xiang Meijuan stared at Xu Hui silently. The two looked at each other silently. In the quiet ward, you could hear a pin drop.
Xu Hui was frantic inside, but he tried to remain calm on the surface.
She couldn't guess what Xiang Meijuan meant by looking at her face. Was she planning to force her son to get a divorce certificate before the wedding took place?
She was getting impatient waiting, and just as she was about to open her mouth, Xiang Meijuan spoke again, "Hurry up and have the wedding first. How long do you want to delay it? Do you still want me to hold my grandson?"
Xu Hui was completely confused, and even suspected that Xiang Meijuan was deliberately testing her, or was just angry and confused.
Xu Hui's face froze instantly, her chest burning with heat, and she blurted out the question in her heart: "What did you say? Say it again."
Seeing her like this, Xiang Meijuan's throat began to clog again. She took a deep breath and said calmly, "If Ji Chuan can't spare the time, I'll take care of it for you two."
Xu Hui stared at Xiang Meijuan blankly for two seconds. Suddenly, his eyes felt sore and tears fell to the ground.
She still tried to hold it back, sobbing, "Thank you, Mom."
However, as soon as she called out "Mom", she couldn't help it. Her legs went soft and she fell on the bed, hugging Xiang Meijuan and crying loudly.
Xiang Meijuan couldn't hold it back any longer, and at this moment, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law hugged each other tightly and cried bitterly.
When Ji Chuan returned from the court and arrived at the hospital ward, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had already finished crying and packed up. Xiang Meijuan insisted on being discharged immediately.
Three days later, Ji Chuan and Xu Hui accompanied Xiang Meijuan to the Civil Affairs Bureau and completed the divorce procedures with Ji Qingming.
Ji Qingming himself did not show up, Secretary Wang came on his behalf.
According to Secretary Wang, the woman had a miscarriage of her second child and had a huge argument with Ji Qingming in the hospital, throwing a tantrum and forcing Ji Qingming to give her unborn child justice. Ji Qingming, in a fit of rage, sent the mother and child abroad overnight, and this time gave the woman a large sum of money. Ji Qingming planned to completely sever ties with them.
Secretary Wang conveyed Ji Qingming's intention on his behalf, saying that he did not want to divorce and wanted to return to his family.
However, Xiang Meijuan was determined to divorce, and Secretary Wang was powerless to change the situation.
