Chapter 32 Chapter 32 "Anyone can stop loving you, but you...

Jiang Qiuyue shook off Fang Zhaodi, strode out of Jiangjia Village, and went to the city to help Jiang Xiahe complete the divorce procedures.

After confirming that she was divorced and had nothing to do with Yunlang, Jiang Xiahe felt relieved, but also a little confused. "Qiuyue, I'm afraid I can't go back to my parents' home. Mom doesn't understand my hardship. Dad is dead, and she only cares about Yaozu."

I can’t go back to my parents’ home, so I can’t continue living in the Yun family, right?

Although the Yun family's house is empty, Yunchuan's wife may come back at any time, and her parents' home is so close.

She was too embarrassed to bother her sister any more. "When I return to Jiangjia Village, I will go to the village chief. Even if I have to live in a cowshed, it is better than going back to beg my mother. I will remember your kindness. If you need me in the future, I will definitely help you!"

"You don't need a mother like Fang Zhaodi. I advise you to cut off all contact with her in the future. And forget about your elder sister, she is much more thoughtful than you."

The two of them walked towards the station together. Jiang Qiuyue was talking when she suddenly thought of a way to have the best of both worlds. "Dazhu and I are going to the army, and we still haven't found a suitable person to live in our house. My parents-in-law are also a bit of a hassle. If you really want to repay me, you can move into my house and help me occupy the house. And you are my biological sister, so it makes sense and reasonable."

The same people come and go in the village. There are no outside workers now. The educated youth have their own residences provided by the Educated Youth Organization, so it is difficult to rent out the houses.

But once the house was vacant, there was no doubt that Wang Chunhua would pry the lock and move in. Jiang Qiuyue was unwilling to let Wang Chunhua and the others get away with it, and would rather let Jiang Xiahe live there.

Besides, the villagers will know about Jiang Xiahe and Yun Lang's affair sooner or later, and by then they will be talking about it and will be so angry that they will die.

Taohua Village is not far away, but it is quite far. I will ask the captain to transfer my household registration here. It will be better than living in Jiangjia Village.

"You don't have to be polite to me. If you don't live in the house, I can't solve the problem. If Wang Chunhua occupies it, I will be so angry that I will wake up and curse at her in the middle of the night."

Jiang Qiuyue knew the Lin family's character very well. "Besides, you will probably have troubles for a while if you live in my house. Wang Chunhua and the others are not good people. But don't worry, I will teach them a lesson for you before you leave. From now on, as long as you show the same attitude as when you confronted Yun Lang, no one will dare to bully you."

"Second sister, you have to remember that kind people are often bullied. If someone bullies you, don't be afraid, you must be more fierce than him. If you are weak and no one helps you, more and more people will bully you. You only live once, you have to be good to yourself. Anyone can not love you, but you have to love yourself."

"I……"

Jiang Xiahe had just said one word when tears began to fall uncontrollably. She hugged her sister tightly, "Thank you, Qiuyue, thank you so much. I will live well and live up to your hard work."

Jiang Qiuyue paused for a moment, then patted Jiang Xiahe on the back, "Well, we all have to be good to ourselves."

After returning to the village, Jiang Xiahe took the divorce certificate to go back to Cai Guoqiang, and went to the Yun family to pack up her things.

Jiang Qiuyue said that even if they were divorced, they could still share some of the things in the house. Jiang Xiahe would have to live on her own in the future, and would need pots and pans, bedding, clothes, etc. These necessities could all be taken from the Yun family, so there was no need to fight for nothing.

Now you need a cloth coupon to buy a piece of cloth, and it is not easy to buy a new set.

Jiang Qiuyue went home and pushed open the door to the yard. She saw the two children playing with Niu Zhuangzhuang and Lin Zhengrong busy in the kitchen. Feeling the hustle and bustle of life, she smiled and said, "Beibei Nannan, mom is back. Did you miss me?"

"mother!"

Lin Beibei was the first to rush over and hugged her mother, "I missed you so much. I couldn't sleep last night when you were not here."

Lin Nannan also came over and held Jiang Qiuyue's hand, smiling sweetly at her.

Jiang Qiuyue squatted down and hugged the two children, "So good, let mommy kiss you." The children were sweet and soft, very cute.

Lin Zhengrong, who was in the kitchen, was wearing a small apron and came out with a spatula. "Qiuyue, take the child to wash their hands. I stewed cabbage and vermicelli. It's just right for dinner. Zhuangzhuang, you come too, and try uncle's cooking skills."

Niu Zhuangzhuang said no, "Uncle, really no, I want to go home." He ran very fast. In the afternoon, Beibei whispered to him that Uncle Lin's cooking was not delicious, but Beibei was afraid that Uncle Lin would be unhappy, so he cooperated and said it was delicious.

He likes the food cooked by Aunt Jiang, and his eyes become sore when he thinks about not being able to eat it in the future. When he grows up, he will definitely go find Aunt Jiang!

Seeing Niu Zhuangzhuang running so fast, Jiang Qiuyue couldn't help but laugh, "How come this kid who is usually so greedy doesn't even try a bite today?"

Seeing Lin Zhengrong bringing out the dish, the vermicelli was black and sticky, and it was obvious that too much soy sauce was added. Jiang Qiuyue suddenly understood why Niu Zhuangzhuang didn't want to eat it. Fearing that it would hurt Lin Zhengrong's self-esteem, she tried to take a bite, and it was salty!

Lin Beibei's brows were also furrowed. This time, she could no longer say "delicious". She looked at her mother for help, "Mom, I won't be hungry today. Can I eat less?"

"What's wrong? Is the food not tasty?" At noon, Lin Zhengrong saw that the two children did not eat much. He always ate in the canteen in the army and never cooked for himself.

He originally thought that Jiang Qiuyue had worked hard, and if he cooked well, he might be able to win a prize. But now seeing the child like this, he lost some confidence.

It was really hard for the child to eat such salty food. Jiang Qiuyue touched her son's head and said, "Don't waste food. Mom will cook it again and you can eat it later."

The fire in the stove was still on, so Jiang Qiuyue poured the vermicelli into the pot. She couldn't stir-fry it anymore, so she had to add more vermicelli. She added some water and vinegar, and boiled it into vermicelli soup, which would not taste so salty.

Lin Zhengrong stood at the door and scratched his head, "I'm still not good at cooking."

"That's normal. Everyone has their own strengths. When I'm not at home again, you should still take the children to the cafeteria to eat."

So as not to waste food, Jiang Qiuyue thought.

Smoke began to rise from the kitchen again, and when the vermicelli came out of the pot again, its color immediately changed.

Lin Beibei took a sip, then continued eating with a smile, which made Lin Zhengrong feel upset.

At this time, outside the gate of the Lin family, Wang Chunhua and Lin Fugui walked for most of the day to get home from the city.

Their pockets were empty and they hadn't even had lunch. Now they smelled the delicious food and their stomachs started growling again.

After pushing the door open with difficulty, Wang Chunhua saw her grandson crawling on the ground. She wanted to scold him but she didn't have the strength. "Qian Li, what are you doing? Hey, my little baby, why are you playing with chicken shit?"

Wang Chunhua went to hug her grandson, but she had no strength left, and they both sat on the ground.

Qian Li ran out of the kitchen, "Dad, Mom, why are you back?"

"Can you speak? This is my home. Where else can I go if I don't come back?" Wang Chunhua threw a stone at Qian Li. "Hurry up and bring out some food. I'm starving."

Qian Li was hit on the hand by a stone, and suddenly she missed the days when her parents-in-law were not at home. Thinking that she still had to rely on her parents-in-law to fight for the house, she went into the kitchen to cook sweet potatoes again.

The sweet potatoes would not ripen in a short while, but there was a fragrance coming from the yard next door. Wang Chunhua picked up a stone and wanted to throw it over there, but when she thought about what had happened in the past few days, she was still frightened.

Lin Fugui was also very hungry, but he was calmer than Wang Chunhua. He sat down, drank two bowls of water, and asked his second son whether he had sent his younger siblings off.

Lin Erzhu didn't dare to go there. He wished he could draw a clear line between himself and Lin Sanzhu, let alone go to see him off.

But his father's question made him feel guilty, and he lowered his head and answered, "Dad, it's not that I don't want to go, it's just that there were too many people that day. Sanzhu and Lin Xiao are destined to go to labor reform, and we have to go on with our lives, right?"

"Your mother is such a bastard?" Wang Chunhua slapped him. "You only have one brother and one sister. They didn't do anything wrong. It was Jiang Qiuyue and Lin Dazhu who harmed them. They went to labor reform, and you didn't give them anything. How can they live?"

"Mom, everyone else is eager to draw a clear line and stay away from labor reform prisoners, why don't you understand?"

Lin Erzhu covered his head, "If we continue to associate with Sanzhu and the others, we will be criticized by the villagers. I don't mind, but what about Dabao? He is still so young. Do you want to see Dabao suffer?"

Of course Wang Chunhua was reluctant to let go of her only precious grandson, but she also felt sorry for her younger son and daughter.

She sat on the chair and started crying, "My poor child, it's all Jiang Qiuyue and Lin Dazhu's fault, the two bastards ruined our family. Erzhu, you don't know, when your father and I were detained, we couldn't eat or sleep well, and my heart would beat faster when there was any movement outside, for fear that they were here to take us away."

Talking about the days of detention, Lin Fugui was also scared and did not want to be detained again.

Now whenever he hears the word "police station", he shudders.

At this time, Qian Li came in with sweet potatoes and an egg soup, "Mom and Dad, eat quickly. I cooked eggs for you. You have suffered a lot these days."

Normally Wang Chunhua was reluctant to eat eggs, but today she just glared at Qian Li, drank a sip of egg soup herself, and held Dabao to feed him.

Lin Fugui ate a few bites of sweet potato, then he came to his senses and asked, "Erzhu, what's going on in the village recently?"

"There are many things to deal with, especially since Jiang Yuanzong and Zhou Cuicui are dead. Dad, listen to me..."

Lin Erzhu told all the things that happened during this period, and finally mentioned that Jiang Qiuyue was going to join the army. "In a few days, Jiang Qiuyue will go to join the army. When she leaves, the house will be empty. It was originally our house. Qian Li and I both think that we should take the house back. What do you think?"

"Yes, I definitely have to!" Wang Chunhua was still eating sweet potatoes and slammed the table angrily, "I couldn't argue with Jiang Qiuyue before, but even if the whole village comes, I have to get the house back!"

"Rich, what do you think?"

Lin Fugui sighed, "Why do you want that?"

He didn't think Jiang Qiuyue would be so easy to talk to and just give them the key.

"Just ask for it directly. If they don't give it to you, go to the captain to seek justice. We are right this time, right?" Wang Chunhua thought it was natural to get the house back. "Lin Dazhu has cut off his relationship with us, so why should he live in our house?"

As she said this, she quickly finished the sweet potato in her hand. Now that she had the strength back, she couldn't bear it any longer and immediately went to knock on the door to ask Jiang Qiuyue to come out and talk.

Jiang Qiuyue, who was in the yard, had just finished bathing her two children. She was a little surprised to hear Wang Chunhua's voice. She didn't expect Wang Chunhua to come to her so soon.

After opening the door, Jiang Qiuyue looked over with a smile, "I haven't seen you for a few days. Mom, have you lost weight?"

"Don't call me mom, I'm not your mom, we are no longer related."

Wang Chunhua put her hands on her hips and said, "Let me ask you, are you planning to join the army?"

Jiang Qiuyue said yes. Looking at Wang Chunhua's look, she knew that Wang Chunhua was here to steal the house.

Lin Fugui also came out of the Lin family, while Lin Erzhu took Qian Li and hid at home, "Don't forget the promise we made to Jiang Qiuyue and the others. Let our parents go and ask for it, and we won't intervene."

Qian Li was also afraid of Jiang Qiuyue and nodded vigorously.

"Since you are leaving, you have to return the house to us. I built this house and it is time for you to return it to us!" Wang Chunhua looked at Jiang Qiuyue righteously.

Jiang Qiuyue: "If I remember correctly, three of the four houses in my family were built after Dazhu joined the army, right? All of them were built with the money given by Dazhu, so how can they be built by you?"

"According to what you said, I should take back the other house in Jiangjian as well!"

"Jiang Qiuyue, you are unreasonable. I worked so hard to build this house, but you don't even want to live in it. Why are you still occupying it?"

Wang Chunhua did use the money given by Lin Dazhu to build the house. She went to the police station for a while. Now when she sees Jiang Qiuyue, she doesn't dare to take action like she did before.

Lin Fugui also said, "Yes, Qiuyue, we will look after the house for you, and you can live in it when you come back. Although we are no longer related, we were a family before. Otherwise, the house will be ruined if it is left empty."

"Then don't worry, I won't leave the house empty, and I definitely won't let it fall into disrepair." Jiang Qiuyue sneered, "And if I give it to you, will you be able to live in it? Lin Sanzhu and Lin Xiao are going to labor reform, so do you have to sleep separately at night, one in each room?"

"Jiang Qiuyue, can you speak?" Wang Chunhua pointed at Jiang Qiuyue.

Lin Zhengrong came over after taking a shower. He said with a stern face, "I won't give you the house. If you make trouble, I don't mind going to my comrades again."

When Qiu Jie was mentioned, Wang Chunhua shuddered subconsciously and didn't know what to do.

She turned to look at Lin Fugui, who winked at her and they went home first.

"Fugui, let's just let it go like this?" Wang Chunhua lowered her voice, feeling unwilling.

"Tomorrow I will go find the captain and my cousin and the others to see what they have to say." Lin Fugui was also afraid of being detained. "If it really doesn't work, we will go and rob the house after Jiang Qiuyue and the others leave."

Wang Chunhua's eyes lit up. "Yes, after Jiang Qiuyue leaves, they can't control us. But I don't know who Jiang Qiuyue gave the house to?"

"Whoever dares to live here will be made to suffer!" Lin Fugui had been holding back resentment for some time and had no place to vent it.

Wang Chunhua agreed, "We can't defeat Jiang Qiuyue and Lin Dazhu, but if others come, I still don't believe we can't defeat them."

Jiang Qiuyue, who lived next door, had already guessed what Wang Chunhua and his wife were thinking. The next morning, she was waiting for Qian Li and Lin Erzhu at the door.

Seeing Lin Erzhu coming out first, she waved to him.

"Sister-in-law, what do you want from me?" Lin Erzhu felt guilty when he saw Jiang Qiuyue and walked over with a stiff smile.

"Let me ask you, was it you who told Wang Chunhua and his wife that I was going to join the army and asked them to rob the house?" Jiang Qiuyue asked.

Lin Erzhu immediately shook his head after hearing this. "How is that possible? Sister-in-law, Qian Li and I have promised that we will never cause any trouble for you. Qian Li mentioned the matter of following the army, but we really did not instigate my parents to rob the house. I can swear to God!"

"Okay, then you swear that if you lie to me, you will be bitten by a dog when you go out, crushed to death by a rock when you go into the mountains, or bitten to death by a poisonous snake when you go down to the ground. You also have to swear on Lin Dabao's life. Do you dare?"

Jiang Qiuyue didn't believe what Lin Erzhu said. Seeing Lin Erzhu frozen in confusion, she smiled and changed her tone to a relaxed one, "Oh, look how scared you are. I just wanted to scare you. I still believe you. I came to you to tell you that I originally planned to leave this house to you and Qian Li. You and her are so close, and I thought that since you have separated, you should have your own yard. But..."

Jiang Qiuyue paused deliberately, and Lin Erzhu hurriedly asked, "But what?"

"But Wang Chunhua made me very upset yesterday. You, Qian Li, and Wang Chunhua are still a family, so forget about the house. I would rather destroy it than give it to you."

Jiang Qiuyue shook her head and sighed, "It would be great if Wang Chunhua was as tactful as you and Qian Li. It's a pity that the newly built kitchen is going to be demolished. You are so filial, you will definitely not make trouble for a house and split the family, right?"

Lin Erzhu didn't dare to mention dividing the family at this time, but he dreamed of living in Jiang Qiuyue's courtyard. Once he moved there, it would be no different from half a division of the family.

His mother is a simple-minded person and could easily become a burden to the whole family, so he has to think about himself.

Now, hearing that Jiang Qiuyue was going to destroy the house, Lin Erzhu was anxious, but he didn't immediately take the bait, "Sister-in-law, are you really willing to destroy it?"

"Of course, your mother got the advantage, but I feel worse."

"Then...then why did you tell me this?" Lin Erzhu was still wary of Jiang Qiuyue.

Jiang Qiuyue laughed, "Of course I did this to make you feel unhappy. You could have lived in a yard of your own, but because of your parents, you had to squeeze into that small house. Aren't you quite smart? Can't you see that I'm trying to sow discord between us?"

Acting has to be half-truthful and half-false, so that people can be easily fooled. She had said long ago that if Lin Erzhu and Qian Li still dared to have bad intentions, she would make them pay the price.

A word of sowing discord left Lin Erzhu speechless. Thinking this way, it was normal.

"I've said what I want to say. You already know that you won't be able to occupy the house. I just want to make trouble for you." Jiang Qiuyue said as she was about to leave.

Lin Erzhu was anxious and ran over to ask, "Sister-in-law, if...if I say I am willing to split up, can you leave the house to me?"
