When Old Man Xiao heard Zhang Hehua's request, he just found it laughable.
Divorce and wanting to take three children with him? That's just wishful thinking.
On the spot, Old Man Xiao gave Zhang Hehua a warning.
If you want a divorce, that's fine.
Go find their eldest son. As long as the two of them have discussed it, they can do whatever they want.
Don't even think about taking the child away.
When Zhang Hehua first brought up the matter, Old Man Xiao immediately shut her down.
Oh, the child has grown up. Now you know you're a mother. Why didn't you do this earlier?
Back then, when the child was still young, this unreliable eldest daughter-in-law almost starved Jin Dan to death because of her fat nephew from her maternal family.
Zhang Hehua may have forgotten about this, but he certainly hasn't!
If you want a divorce now, you can get one anytime.
He didn't care; his daughter-in-law was a headache to look at anyway.
It's been several months since she came back, and she doesn't do any work every day. When she runs out of food, she borrows from all over the place.
His skin is thicker than a city wall.
It's better that we're divorced.
That way, when the three children grow up and get married, the women won't want a mother-in-law like that.
However, if you say you're taking three children with you, that's just wishful thinking.
It's true that those three children were born to Zhang Hehua.
But from childhood to adulthood, he and his wife raised him single-handedly, taking care of his every need.
Oh, you think you can just take the child away from them with a few words? Impossible.
Zhang Hehua came to visit for two more days.
Old Man Xiao disagreed, and Xiao Jingyun also knew about it.
I was also unhappy.
After asking around, it turned out that the Zhang family had found another husband for Zhang Hehua.
The bride price has been agreed upon, a full thousand yuan.
We're just waiting for Zhang Hehua to finish her paperwork here so we can get our marriage certificate there.
The man had one request: Zhang Hehua had to bring her three children with her.
When he went back and told Old Man Xiao about this request, the old man was so angry that his hands trembled.
Who are these people?!
Looking for a divorcee for my married daughter!
How did the Xiao family end up with such a daughter-in-law!
Alas, what a misfortune for our family.
He's the eldest son, and he brought this on himself; he insisted on marrying this person back then.
That's his fault.
divorce?
Love or separation!
However, no one can take his beloved grandson away.
During this period, Zhang Hehua visited the Zhang family again.
They've been urging us to meet, saying that as long as we get divorced here, we can meet there.
He also said that he had already met Zhang Hehua and was very satisfied with her.
We're just waiting for her to complete the formalities.
They even asked someone to give her a hundred yuan and a lot of grain coupons.
Holding the money in her hand, Zhang Hehua felt even more confident.
Divorce, we must get a divorce!
Seeing that the Xiao family was unwilling, she spread rumors in the village.
It is said that Xiao Yijing had a lover before he went to prison, but she never told anyone about it for the sake of her family's reputation.
They even said that Xiao Yijing wasn't Old Man Xiao's biological son, and that his three grandsons would definitely be sold off to become live-in sons-in-law.
Anyway, the more they talked, the more outrageous it became.
At first, everyone was following the crickets!
After all, there haven't been any major events in the village lately for everyone to enjoy.
What this lotus flower says is big news.
She even knew the details of who Xiao Yijing's lover was.
The three children now have a place to go, no matter where they go.
Later, it was Aunt Luo who nagged a bit, and then everyone stopped talking.
Aunt Luo's original words were as follows.
"Could you please stop cricketing at Old Xiao's house?"
Don't you have any idea how much money you gave out for Chinese New Year last year?
You don't know who provided this money?
We're trying to elect someone as the brigade leader, but they won't take the position. Why? Because they have some grudges against us. You guys are still clamoring, don't you want things to get better?
Some people disagreed and argued back in the group chat.
"Isn't it because his eldest son went in? Doesn't he deserve it?"
Aunt Luo didn't want to talk to such a fool.
She had to leave.
Seriously, does the captain of this brigade have to be the one in the open?
Is it wrong to do it secretly?
As long as one's words carry weight, it doesn't matter whether one becomes the brigade leader or not.
But Old Man Xiao wasn't happy about it; he was truly heartbroken.
These idiots never learn their lesson!
Zhang Hehua's propaganda campaign was only moderately effective at the beginning; people only went to watch the spectacle when she started making a scene.
Later, the adults gradually stopped going.
There's still a lot of work to be done in the fields!
Although the captain is gone, the scorekeeper squad leader is still here!
Now, it's the children's turn to see.
When Aunt Xiao and the others returned, they found Zhang Hehua causing trouble once again.
She still had the same two demands: a divorce and to leave with the children!
Old Man Xiao reiterated his stance: "Divorce is fine with you, but taking the children is out of the question!"
The four children were right behind Old Man Xiao.
I heard from my friends that Zhang Hehua was causing trouble again; they stopped digging for wild vegetables and ran straight back home.
The three golden eggs all looked at their mother with hostile eyes.
Why are you so restless? It's been going on for almost a month now, can't you take a break?
The key point is, making a fuss won't get you anywhere!
They can't possibly go with us!
The golden egg, representing itself and its two younger brothers, looked earnestly at Zhang Hehua: "We can't go with you, give up!"
Zhang Hehua was very unhappy when she heard this.
If it weren't for the fact that they asked me to bring the children, I definitely wouldn't have brought these three debt collectors with me.
