Ye Zhi watched as Ye Hongying slapped Gao Wenbo's eldest son in the face with a loud slap, leaving several red marks immediately.
Gao Wenbo's eldest son was beaten so hard that he was stunned. He stood there in a daze, touching the side of his face that was hit, and looked at Ye Hongying in disbelief.
Ye Hongying, however, showed no fear. Facing her eldest son's confused yet fierce look, she raised her voice and cursed again, "You damn son of a bitch, who do you think you are? Do you think I want to be your cheap mother? From childhood to adulthood, what else can you do except fighting and making trouble? I serve you tea and water, wash clothes and cook for you every day. Even if I have no merit, I have worked hard. You bastard who has no mother to teach you, can you write a few words about respecting the elderly and loving the young? How dare you point fingers at me? Bah!"
Ye Hongying had wanted to give this bastard a good scolding for a long time, and today was just the right opportunity to do so. She doesn't care now, because she has never had any status in this family anyway.
After scolding Gao Wenbo's eldest son, Ye Hongying started to scold him again: "And you——" As she spoke, Ye Hongying walked up to Gao Wenbo and pointed at him and scolded: "Gao Wenbo, don't think I'm easy to bully. I've wasted the best ten years of my youth on you! Do you think that I have to make room for your white moonlight immediately after she comes back?"
"I'm telling you, you're dreaming! Even if I die, I'd rather die at the doorstep of your Gao family! If you dare to bring that woman home, I'll sue you for being a slut!" Ye Hongying was so angry that her chest heaved up and down, and it was obvious that she was very angry.
In fact, Gao Wenbo and her are no different from divorced. She can't even remember how long it has been since they last slept in the same bed. But that doesn't mean she has to make room for Meng Yunyun. Anyway, she's not the one who's in a hurry right now, and she has plenty of time to waste with them!
Even if we really have to separate one day, she has to be the first to say goodbye!
Seeing Ye Zhi's life getting better and better, she often sees Lu Wei coming to the school to pick her up and drop her off. The child is also well-behaved and cute. Who wouldn't say that they are happy when seeing her?
And what about her?
I spent ten years of my youth on Gao Wenbo, and what did I get in return?
Not a single fart!
Therefore, Ye Hongying would never leave so easily. At least, she cannot leave before getting the benefits she deserves!
Ye Zhi listened to what Ye Hongying said and wanted to persuade her to cut her losses in time, but thinking back over the years, didn't Ye Hongying know that she was not happy following Gao Wenbo?
Of course she knew it, but I'm afraid what Ye Hongying wanted was not happiness.
Just when Ye Zhi was about to check if Li Ermei was injured, Gao Wenbo's eldest son was scolded by Ye Hongying. The younger brothers and sisters who were watching on the side immediately stepped forward and wanted to surround Ye Hongying, but were blocked by Ye Hongying's two brothers, who scolded: "You stinky brats, if you dare to touch my sister's hair, I will beat you to death!"
The children were young and energetic, and even when facing two adult men who were taller than them, they showed no intention of backing down. The veins on their arms holding the sticks were bulging, as if they were ready to rush up and fight them to the death at any time.
But before they could make any move, Gao Wenbo stopped them and said sternly, "All of you go back, you have nothing to do here!"
Gao Wenbo's little daughter snorted coldly and asked, "It's none of our business? As long as this woman doesn't leave our home, my mother won't be able to come back! How come it's none of our business?"
Then, Gao Wenbo's second son also said fiercely: "If this bitch doesn't agree to a divorce today, I will fight her!"
"This is an adult matter, kids, don't interrupt!" Gao Wenbo snatched the sticks from the two children in front of him and threw them directly to the ground. Two "click" sounds were heard immediately, scaring everyone to tremble.
After he finished speaking, his three children frowned and looked at Gao Wenbo with displeasure, as if they hated his incompetence.
The eldest son snorted coldly, glanced at Ye Hongying and Gao Wenbo, and said to his two younger siblings, "Let's go find mom!"
Before leaving, the children glared at Ye Hongying fiercely.
Ying didn't pay any attention to them and just looked at Gao Wenbo.
Gao Wenbo watched the children leave, then glanced at Ye Hongying and asked, "What do you want me to do in order to get a divorce?"
Then he added, "You tell me the amount, and I'll do my best to make it up to you."
Ye Hongying: "Bah! I won't leave you even if I die!"
Gao Wenbo sighed softly, raised his eyes to look at her, and said word by word: "In this case, let's go through legal procedures." After that, he turned around and prepared to leave.
When Gao Wenbo passed by Ye Zhi, he glanced at her out of the corner of his eye, then lowered his head and rushed out of the crowd.
Li Ermei on this side heard Gao Wenbo say that he would take legal action against Ye Hongying. The words she was about to curse immediately turned into crying. However, the crowd of onlookers gradually dispersed as Gao Wenbo left. No one was interested in watching this farce anymore.
Ye Hongying looked at Ye Zhi, who stood out in the crowd, and suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of shame and humiliation. She couldn't control her emotions and yelled, "Stop crying. Is crying useful?"
Li Ermei stopped crying immediately after Ye Hongying yelled at her. Just as she was about to scold Ye Hongying, she finally noticed Ye Zhi standing beside her.
Many people in Xitang Town said that Ye Zhi not only married a good man, but also got into college and had a promising future. He also brought his parents to Guangzhou to settle down, opened a shop and a factory, making many people in the town envious.
Over the years, many people have liked to compare her daughter Hongying with Ye Zhi, but no matter in which aspect, Hongying can never compare to Ye Zhi.
Now, Gao Wenbo finally got admitted to university, but less than a year after arriving in Guangzhou, some ungrateful and heartless man named Gao Wenbo wants to divorce his own Hongying!
Looking at Ye Zhi again, she was radiant and the most eye-catching female comrade standing in the crowd. There are almost no signs of time on her face. She is even more beautiful than when she left Xitang Town. Her skin is still fair and flawless, and her clothes are bright and beautiful. It is obvious that she has a happy life and has not suffered any setbacks or hardships.
And what about his daughter? They are either arguing about divorce or fighting every day, and they haven't had a single normal day in all these years.
Li Ermei couldn't help but feel an inexplicable anger rising in her heart. She didn't know whether she was angry that Ye Zhi was living a good life or that her own daughter was not living up to her expectations. She immediately grabbed Ye Hongying and beat and scolded her, saying that she had no vision and had chosen such an ungrateful and unfaithful man after careful selection!
Ye Hongying was beaten by her and had to hide all the way. She had no intention of staying on the campus anymore, and she didn't want Ye Zhi to see her predicament. Li Ermei chased after her, not wanting to let others watch the fun anymore.
Ye Hongying's two brothers were left. Seeing that the crowd had dispersed, Li Ermei and Ye Hongying were walking towards the school gate again. They were stunned for a moment and had to follow them out.
When they passed by Ye Zhi, Ye Zhi took the initiative to greet them, but Ye Hongying and her mother had already run far away, so they did not stay. They nodded to Ye Zhi and left.
The two of them walked on the campus road of Z University, and sighed softly: "Why does Ye Zhi look the same? I almost didn't recognize her just now."
"Yeah, young and handsome, even more handsome than before."
"Hongying used to say that she married a poor soldier, but I see that she lives a better life than anyone else!"
"She even started a business with her brothers, and now it's thriving..."
The two of them talked all the way as they walked towards the school gate.
After Ye Zhi returned to the family compound that night, she told Zhang Xiaomei and Ye Aiguo about this.
The two had nothing much to say, so the next day they found time to visit Li Ermei, but they ended up parting on bad terms.
After Zhang Xiaomei came back, she sighed to Ye Zhi, "I thought after so many years, your Third Aunt would be more open-minded, but I didn't expect she still has that bad temper."
Ye Aiguo walked around the living room with his hands behind his back and said softly, "Forget it, we will not care about their family affairs from now on."
Ye Zhi was supervising several children doing their homework. When she heard what their parents said, she also guessed
After learning about the situation after they met, according to Li Ermei's personality, she would definitely have preconceived ideas from the beginning and think that her parents were just going to see their family having fun, and she couldn't help but make some sarcastic remarks.
After so many years, her parents have actually let go of the past. This time, she planned to ask them if they needed any help, but Li Ermei's kindness was taken as an insult.
Ye Zhi also agreed with what her father said, that it would be better for him not to interfere in their family affairs in the future.
A few days later, Ye Zhi learned from her colleagues in the cloth market that Ye Hongying was finally willing to divorce Gao Wenbo, but on the condition that Ye Hongying wanted Gao Wenbo to pay 50,000 yuan in damages.
How could it be easy to take out 50,000 yuan in the 1980s? Even the traders in Guangzhou and Shenzhen may not be able to come up with so much money.
Isn't this a disguised refusal to divorce?
However, Ye Zhi did not have the time to take care of their affairs, because after April, as senior students, they began to get busy with graduation matters, and many students were preparing for their future assignments.
However, Ye Zhi did not plan to stay in Guangzhou. She planned to return to Qiongzhou Island after graduation, so Ye Zhi had much freer time than other classmates.
During the May Day holiday, Ye Zhi sent the first batch of summer clothes to Beijing and discussed the transportation matters. Ye Zhi also wanted to go back to Beijing to see Grandpa and Grandma Lu, as well as Ye Xiaoding.
Because Ye Xiaoding's birthday happened to be this month, and Xiaoding had celebrated his birthday with them in previous years, so Ye Zhi also planned to bring him some gifts that the children had prepared early.
It just so happened that Lu Wei also had a mission and had to go to Beijing, so the two of them found their time and took a train to Beijing together. The batch of clothes was also sent onto the freight train the day before. When they arrived in Beijing, they would be able to meet He Xiaoli and Jiang Minhui at the train station.
Ye Zhi and Lu Wei did not plan to bring the children with them on this trip as the schedule was a bit tight. Ye Zhi would return to Yangcheng immediately after finishing her business.
Fortunately, Lu Xingyun and Lu Xingzhou have grown up a lot now and no longer run after their parents all day long. When they knew that Ye Zhi and Lu Wei were going on a trip, they helped them pack their luggage the night before departure.
After packing the luggage, Lu Xingyun said to Ye Zhi in a serious tone: "Mom, you always don't know the way. Remember to follow Dad closely and don't get lost."
When Lu Xingzhou heard this, he also warned: "Dad, we'll be on the train for a few days. You have to protect Mom and don't let her run around."
Ye Zhi couldn't help curling her lips when she heard what the two kids said, "I won't get lost. I'm your mother. How old am I? It's just a train ride, right?"
The two sons looked at each other, and then recalled the incident when Ye Zhi got lost while taking them to visit Hutong during the Chinese New Year.
"During the Chinese New Year, you got lost in your great-grandfather's alley and took us to the wrong yard." The two little ones were now determined to compete with each other. After talking about the alley, they talked about the time when she took them to the amusement park and took the wrong bus.
Lu Wei listened to the two little guys' vivid "little stories" with a smile on his lips. After the two sons finished speaking, he responded: "Okay, Dad knows, and he will definitely protect your mother."
Ping Ping and An An also hugged Ye Zhi's thighs, and then said to her: "Mom, you have to be careful and remember to hold Dad's hand tightly."
"That's right, mom, you are such a fool. If you disappear, we will be without a mom."
Ye Zhi stroked the two cute little furry heads and said with a smile, "I know, Mom will be careful. When Mom is not at home, you have to listen to grandma and grandpa and grandma, and sometimes you have to help with housework, understand?"
When Pingping and Anan found out a few days ago that Ye Zhi and Lu Wei were going on a trip, they cried and wanted to go with them. However, after being comforted by their two brothers and Ye Zhi and Lu Wei, they are no longer as noisy as they were at the beginning and are also following their brothers' example, giving them many instructions.
After listening to his two sisters, Lu Xingyun snorted, "That's right. When mom disappears, dad will find us a stepmother! The stepmother will definitely not give us food and will starve us to death!"
Lu Xingzhou echoed: "That's right, it's terrible! I only want my mother!"
Lu Wei's expression changed from speechless to a little angry. He bent his index finger and tapped the two little guys on the head. "What nonsense are you two talking about? If you say something nonsense again, don't blame me for being rude!"
After Lu Wei was promoted during the Chinese New Year, he has been going home more often. Seeing that his two sons have grown up, he likes to take the two little guys to practice. Sometimes I take them hiking, which would take most of the day. When the children come home, they collapse on the ground exhausted and don’t want to move at all.
So the two little guys now don’t like Lu Wei coming home, because once they go home it means they have to practice with him, and if they don’t obey, they will be punished by Lu Wei.
Now, when the two little guys heard what Lu Wei said, they immediately shut up and quickly hid behind Ye Zhi, muttering, "Look, Dad is beating us again, Mom, you have to protect us!"
Even An An hugged Ye Zhi tightly and said, "Mom, you have to protect me too!"
Ye Zhi looked at the children helplessly, then Pingping jumped to Lu Wei's side and opened her arms, motioning Lu Wei to hold her. Lu Weiyi picked up Pingping, and Pingping said, "Dad only loves Mom, so he won't find a stepmother for me! Even if Mom is lost, Dad is so powerful that he will definitely find her."
Then Pingping asked again: "Dad, do you think I'm right?"
Compared with the attitudes of the two sons and An An, Pingping is really like a caring little cotton-padded jacket. After listening to her words, I feel warm in my heart.
Lu Wei smiled, kissed Pingping's chubby face, and said with a smile: "Pingping still loves daddy the most. Daddy will certainly not let mom get lost."
Pingping stretched out her soft little arms and hugged Lu Wei's neck, smiling and saying, "I love daddy and mommy too."
Lu Wei smiled brightly: "Pingping is so good, Dad loves you too."
Then he said, "I love my brother and sister too, but of course I love your mother the most." After saying that, he lifted the child up high again.
Pingping giggled after hearing this.
When An An saw Lu Wei holding Ping Ping high, he immediately changed his stance and rushed towards Lu Wei, shouting, "Dad, I love you too, I want to hold Ping Ping high too!"
Lu Xingyun and Lu Xingzhou snorted together, watching Ping Ping and An An playing with Lu Wei, and said in unison: "Traitors!"
Ye Zhi also knocked their heads twice and said, "What a mess! Go brush your teeth and go to bed early."
The next morning, the two set out from the staff quarters for the train station before dawn.
The children were up very late last night and didn't wake up this morning, so the two of them had to catch the train first. This time, they were the only two people on the train, and the whole journey was extremely relaxing. They read novels together on the train, chatted, and took a nap before arriving in Beijing.
After getting off the train, Ye Zhi and Lu Wei went back to the courtyard to wash up, and then went to the department store to meet up with He Xiaoli and the others.
The alley is not far from the department store, and it only takes ten minutes to drive there by jeep.
Seeing Ye Zhi anxious to get out of the car, Lu Wei reached out and held her, asking, "Wife, do you want Uncle Li to pick you up after you're done?"
Although Ye Zhi had been to Beijing before, the last time she came to Wangfujing was with her children and elders. Lu Wei was really worried that she would be unfamiliar with the place and wouldn't know the way.
Ye Zhi chuckled, pinched Lu Wei's arm, and said with a smile: "Do you really think I'm a child? It's just a short distance, and we can walk back. Go and do your own thing, and drive safely on the road."
Lu Wei nodded and watched Ye Zhi hurriedly walking towards the department store without even looking back.
Lu Wei shook his head helplessly. Just as he was about to drive away, he saw a familiar figure standing on the side of the road. He vaguely remembered that the aunt seemed to be from the same alley as them, and she also had a daughter who was his childhood playmate. During the Chinese New Year, Ye Zhi also talked to her at the gate of her yard, and the expressions of both of them did not seem very happy at that time.
However, Aunt Huang didn't seem to notice him at the moment, and Lu Wei didn't greet her specifically. He just turned the steering wheel and left.
Aunt Huang on the roadside
I noticed her the moment I got off the car, for no other reason than that Ye Zhi was too eye-catching. Whether it's her beautiful face or fashionable dress, she becomes the focus of the crowd as soon as she appears, and people can't help but look at her.
Aunt Huang thought that after Ye Zhi and Lu Wei went back to the south during the Chinese New Year, they would not see each other for a long time, but she did not expect that Ye Zhi would return to Beijing again? Is there something that can’t be bought in the south, so I have to come all the way back to Beijing to buy it?
Could it be that she thought that the middleman was going to be busted by the organization, so she returned to Beijing to ask Mr. Lu for help?
Just when Aunt Huang wanted to go forward and show off her identity as a salesperson in a department store, she saw He Xiaoli and Secretary Liao standing at the gate, greeting Ye Zhi with a smile. He Xiaoli affectionately held Ye Zhi's arm and got on the elevator, and some of them were talking and laughing. It seems that the two of them are very familiar with each other.
