Chapter 19
Qin Xiang finally felt relieved when she heard Wang Junsheng agreed to divorce.
Finally, she was finally getting divorced.
She had wasted more than 20 years in her previous life, and it was not until she was in her 40s that she saw Wang Junsheng's true colors and got a divorce. She dared to divorce when she was in her 40s in her previous life, and she was still so young in this life. If she left such a scumbag, she would have a better future.
Qin Xiang was a little excited, a little excited, and the corners of her mouth were slightly curved.
Wang Junsheng looked at Qin Xiang's expression and felt uncomfortable. He was more convinced that Qin Xiang really had no feelings for him.
He looked at Qin Xiang and couldn't help asking, "Qin Xiang, have you ever liked me?"
Qin Xiang was stunned when she heard that, and glanced at him with the corner of her eyes, and asked back, "Is someone like you worthy of my love?"
Her only regret was that the time of rebirth was not when she finished the college entrance examination. If she was reborn at that time, she would not even be willing to give a glance to Wang Junsheng, the bastard.
The matter between the Qin and Wang families was concluded. The two did not get a marriage certificate, and divorce was simple. Wang Junsheng wrote a certificate, the two signed and pressed their fingerprints, and the secretary also stamped the village official seal to certify it.
But Qin Baotian and Qin Yang were not happy. They felt that the Wang family was at fault in this matter, causing Qin Xiang to suffer injustice and causing great harm to Qin Xiang's life. Therefore, the Wang family had to compensate Qin Xiang for the losses. This was also what Qin Xiang's second brother Qin Hai had instructed before leaving. Qin Baotian remembered it clearly. If they let the Wang family go at this time, the Wang family would think that they, the Qin family, were easy to bully, and they would have to endure the loss.
Cui Lianhua, who had never agreed to divorce, became even more unhappy when she heard that she had to pay. "We have agreed to the divorce, why are you putting forward conditions? If that's the case, we don't agree to the divorce. Let them continue to live together, and you don't have to worry about finding a husband in the future."
Qin Yang rolled his eyes and glanced coldly at the sweet-faced but bitter-hearted old lady. "You are dreaming. You don't have to agree. We will report to the police immediately. As for continuing to live together..." He looked at Wang Junsheng with disdain and said, "You don't have to dislike your own children. Our Qin family is not a garbage recycling station that has to pick up this kind of garbage to annoy my sister."
"Who are you calling trash?" Cui Lianhua was shaking with anger. She pointed her finger at Qin Yang and turned to Qin Baotian and said, "My dear relatives, it is better to resolve a feud than to create one. Although the two families are divorced, they can still treat each other as relatives. You keep asking for such a large compensation and keep saying that Junsheng is trash. What are we going to do in the future? If the marriage fails, will we become enemies?"
"If we are not enemies, then we are still relatives?" Qin Baotian did not understand Cui Lianhua's logic. "Who has ever heard that two divorced families can still be relatives? We are kind-hearted and gave face to Wangjiazhuang without fighting. Don't forget that this happened because you did something wrong. Our daughter married your family with full consideration only for a year, but this happened. Who can we go to for justice? We are still relatives. I am giving you face. You really plan to open a dyeing factory. Qin Yang is talking about me and my child. "It's what my mother meant."
Although Qin Baotian usually didn't talk much, he was really angry at this time, "It's what it is. You Wang family are more powerful, and we Qin family are not afraid of trouble. We will shout and see who is more embarrassed."
Cui Lianhua was so distressed that she wanted to argue, but was stopped by Wang Dazhu, "We have done something wrong, and we can't let people stab us in the back in other places." Turning to Qin Baotian, he asked, "How much compensation do you want."
Qin Yang said, "At least 500 yuan."
"What, five hundred yuan?" Cai Hongyan, who had always felt wronged and kept silent, was unhappy. The Wang family had not yet split up, and the money in the family belonged to everyone. In the future, the old couple would have to rely on them for their old age, so the bulk of the money should be theirs, and they must not take it. Cai Hongyan immediately retorted, "No, I can't give it to you."
Qin Baotian ignored what Cai Hongyan said. At this time, it was a competition between the elders, and the words of the younger generation did not count. He only looked at Wang Dazhu, "Five hundred."
He understood what his son meant. It would be difficult for Qin Xiang to find another husband after she got divorced. In this case, it would be better to ask for more money, at least so that Qin Xiang would have a foundation to settle down and have money in his hands so that he would not be worried. This is what the Wang family owes his daughter. As a father, he has already been unfair to his daughter in this marriage. If he does not firmly fight for what his daughter deserves now, she will be upset in the future.
Wang Dazhu stood up, his face was very ugly, and his voice was filled with pleading, "My dear relatives..."
It was only the early 1980s, and even the workers in the city only earned 30 or 40 yuan. How much money can a farmer make from the harvest in the countryside in the first year? 500 yuan, the Wang family did have it, but after taking it out, they were really left with nothing. What's more, there is Wang Qingshan's family next door, and I'm afraid they will not let it go. He now only hopes that the Qin family will ask for less because of their past friendship.
"You are no longer relatives by marriage, so you don't have to try to get close to me. Just pay it as much as you deserve." Qin Baotian said with a cold face, "Five hundred yuan for your divorce. If you don't give it to us, we will go to the police station."
Wang Dazhu closed his eyes, his lips trembling at the thought of five hundred yuan. Wang Junsheng glanced at Qin Xiang and did not expect the Qin family to be so heartless. At this point, Wang Junsheng did not want the Qin family to look down on him, so he said with a wooden face, "I'll give it to you."
Now in Wang Junsheng's eyes, nothing in the world is as important as his future. It's okay for other secretaries in the village to be shocked, but not the Qin family and Wang Qingshan's family.
"We have to pay compensation too." Ding Xiaojuan, who had been watching, pointed at Wang Junsheng and said, "You stole my daughter-in-law. We can't live like this anymore. We have to get a divorce. Qingshan will have to spend money to marry a daughter-in-law in the future. It cost a lot of money to marry Cui Hong and raise Cui Hong. You have to at least pay us 500 yuan, otherwise we will go to the police station and report to the police."
"You, you, you are going too far." Cui Lianhua's fingers trembled, and she fell to the ground with her eyelids fluttering. Cai Hongyan shouted "Mom" and rushed towards Cui Lianhua.
Wang Xiao looked at the Qin family angrily and said, "Are you satisfied?"
Qin Yang rolled his eyes at her and said, "We are satisfied as long as we get compensation and divorce. Don't scare us with fainting. It was your third brother who was so shameless that he had to cheat on your delicate mother and made her faint. We, Xiangxiang, are the victims. We are much more pitiful than you. If you don't believe me, you can open the door and ask the people outside if this is the case."
Wang Xiao looked at them and said, "My mother fainted. You really have no sympathy."
"It's a bit unnecessary to show sympathy to your family." Qin Yang didn't waste time talking to her and asked Wang Dazhu directly, "You are the head of the Wang family. I only want to hear your words. Whether to give the money or not, you won't lose out if you spend 500 yuan to buy your son's future."
Wang Dazhu looked at him deeply and
said, "Okay, we'll give it to you." Then he said, "Young man, I have something to say to you. Don't be so hasty to kill off others. Life is long. There will always be a time when fortunes change. You never know when you will be unlucky."
Qin Yang was not afraid of his threats at all, and said cheerfully, "I am not afraid of those who steal and do bad things, so why should I, an upright and kind young man, be afraid? Even if God is going to strike, he will first strike those who have done unscrupulous things. If we really want to kill them all..." Qin Yang snorted coldly, "Uncle, if we really want to kill them all, then you can only carry the coffin to the police station to pick up your college student son tomorrow."
Wang Dazhu was shocked when he heard this, and broke out in a cold sweat. He looked at Wang Fusheng, who sighed and nodded. Wang Dazhu sat down dejectedly, looking much older in an instant.
Seeing that the Qin family's plan had succeeded, Ding Xiaojuan hurriedly said, "We want five hundred. If you don't give us, we will report it to the police. Our good daughter-in-law has become a slut. It's good that you didn't have to accompany her. Anyway, she is no longer our family. You deserve it if she dies. Either give us the money or take all of it."
Wang Dazhu laughed twice, tears falling from his eyes. "Give it, we'll give it all."
The last few words almost broke his teeth.
Cai Hongyan watched her father-in-law agree to pay one thousand yuan, and she hated Wang Junsheng in her heart, and her eyes seemed to want to eat Wang Junsheng.
Wang Dazhu looked at the two families solemnly, and then said, "But we can't take out so much money in a short time, I hope you can give us a few days. It will take time for us to sell everything we have."
Qin Yang ignored his pity and nodded, "Of course, just write an IOU."
Wang Dazhu sighed helplessly and looked at Qin Xiang, "Qin Xiang, although we can't be family, I hope I can say hello when we meet in the future. After all, we have spent a year together."
Qin Xiang was speechless, "Such a relationship is better off not having it. It's as disgusting as eating a fly. I just hope that we will never have any contact after the divorce, and don't say you know me when you meet. It's too embarrassing." After that, she sat down next to her, waiting to sign the divorce after the discussion.
Wang Dazhu was breathing fast. He didn't expect his daughter-in-law, who used to be so nice, to suddenly change her expression. Her face turned red and her teeth began to tremble. "She's very good. We, the Wang family, can't keep her."
"Don't say it." Wang Junsheng stopped his father in grief. "Dad, don't say it. It's all my fault."
"It's really your fault." If Wang Junsheng's face was not so ugly now and he was worried that it would be difficult to start school, Wang Dazhu wanted to slap Wang Junsheng twice.
In the past, he was proud of Wang Junsheng. In the past two years, everyone in the village, young and old, men and women, envied him for having a good son. But now all of this is gone. In the future, their family will be the laughing stock of the village.
Wang Fusheng brought over a piece of paper with proof materials and asked Wang Junsheng to write down what he said, in triplicate. The two signed and stamped their fingerprints, and the official seal of Wangjiazhuang was affixed, and the marriage was divorced.
Qin Yang handed the divorce proof materials and the IOU to Qin Xiang, "Take it, this is what you deserve. Don't think you are cruel, you don't owe them, they owe you."
Qin Xiang never thought that divorce meant that they didn't owe each other anything, and she was not vague about what she deserved. Otherwise, she had benefited the Wang family, so they should bleed a little and feel the pain, so that they would not provoke her again in the future. Otherwise, she would not have been able to sue Wang Junsheng in a big way in her life, and then divide the money and bankrupt him.
She took the things and smiled, "I know, thank you, your third brother."
This thank you was sincere. When she divorced in her last life, it was her third brother who stayed by her side to protect her. In this new life, it was still her third brother who protected her. She was really happy. She finally got away from the Wang family.
The family didn't care how Wang Qingshan's family argued with Wang Junsheng's family. After handling their own affairs, they went out and prepared to leave.
When they reached the door, Qin Xiang turned around and said, "We will come to get the dowry tomorrow. I hope you can prepare the money, otherwise we will come every day."
After that, the family left.
The atmosphere in the house was not very good. Cui Lianhua woke up and refused to give the Wang family 500 yuan. She believed that Wang Qingshan's wife seduced her son and Wang Junsheng was the victim. But Ding Xiaojuan also had a handle on Wang Junsheng's family, and threatened to report the two, "Anyway, one is a slut and the other is an adulterer, so they should both die to avoid embarrassment."
The two had no blood relationship with Wang Qingshan's family, so Ding Xiaojuan could shamelessly make a scene, but Cui Lianhua didn't dare to do so, as she had to be careful of Wang Junsheng.
Cai Hongyan also started to make a scene, and even said that she would send Wang Junsheng to the police station, until Wang Laoda dragged Cai Hongyan out.
Ding Xiaojuan stared at Cui Lianhua and said, "Auntie, I can't let it go if I lose a penny."
Tonight was destined to be a sleepless night.
The Qin family of three came here on two bicycles. When they went back, there were just two people on each bicycle. When they got on the bicycle and left Wangjiazhuang, Lian Fengying still couldn't believe it. She was a little dazed. "Xiangxiang is really divorced?"
Qin Xiang smiled comfortably, "Yes, divorced."
"You can still smile." Lian Fengying's face was full of worries, "How can I live in the future?"
Qin Xiang smiled, "Just live your life as you have to, I still want to go to college."
Lian Fengying was immediately annoyed, "You still mentioned the college entrance examination, is Wang Junsheng and Cui Hong together because of your desire to go to college?"
Qin Xiang was stunned for a moment, "So you think the responsibility of our divorce is mine?"
"You must have made a mistake." Lian Fengying felt a little guilty when she looked at her, and refused to look at her. "It takes two to tango. If you hadn't made a fuss about these things and lived a good life with Wang Junsheng, would Cui Hong, that vixen, have had a chance to take advantage of you? I've long said that Cui Hong is not a woman who would settle down. You insisted on being with her, and now, all the good candidates have been seduced by her. You will regret it in the future."
Qin Xiang was angry, "Yes, I want a divorce. I tell you, even if this incident didn't happen today, I would still get a divorce."
"How did you become like this? You don't know anything. What will you do if you get divorced? Who will you marry in the future?
All the bachelors in the village will think you are dirty." Lian Fengying was furious. She felt that her daughter didn't understand her painstaking efforts. She looked at Qin Xiang and said, "Sooner or later, I will have you..."
"Okay, shut up."
Before Qin Xiang could retort, Qin Baotian got angry first. He stopped the car, looked at Lian Fengying in the back seat and said, "You are so capable of venting your anger on your daughter-in-law, why didn't you vent it on the Wang family just now at Wangjiazhuang? You only know how to bully others. You are so mean to your own daughter-in-law, why weren't you mean when your daughter-in-law pointed at you and scolded you? You only show your meanness to your daughter-in-law. What kind of ability do you have?"
Lian Fengying was stunned. She didn't expect that Qin Baotian, who was always an honest man, would get angry. Her eyes turned red. "I, I..."
"What are you saying?" Qin Baotian said, "They don't treat Qin Xiang as a human being. You are her biological mother. You said these things in front of your daughter. What do you want to do? Do you have to force her to death?"
Qin Xiang turned her head away and didn't look at her mother. For two lifetimes, she knew that her mother was a weak-willed person. But only today did she realize that it really hurts to stab a weak-willed person.
Lian Fengying finally panicked, "I, I just said that in anger. I didn't want to force her to death." She looked at Qin Xiang, but Qin Xiang was no longer looking at her.
"I'm just afraid that someone will say something about her. A good college student doesn't want to follow me. What should I do in the future? People will talk about her at her parents' home. The third child hasn't married yet." Lian Fengying's voice became smaller and smaller, but she felt more and more aggrieved.
Qin Yang's face turned cold, "I don't want to marry a wife, so don't worry about it. Even if you marry a wife, if she can't even tolerate my sister, then forget it as soon as possible. I don't care."
After that, Qin Yang shouted, "Hold on." The car went straight forward.
It was pitch black in the wilderness on New Year's Eve. Even with a flashlight tied to the front of the car, they could barely get into the ditch.
Qin Xiang grabbed her third brother's collar and said, "Third brother, it's great to have you. I'm not afraid of anything."
Sometimes the presence of her brother can give her more peace of mind than her parents. Because of the presence of her third brother, her mother's family is not afraid of the days after the divorce.
Qin Yang's laughter is particularly refreshing on such a night, "Silly girl, I'm your third brother. We have had the best relationship since we were young."
Qin Xiang laughed immediately.
"Mom is just like that. If you argue with her, she will be so angry that she will die. Just pretend you didn't hear it. Anyway, what she said doesn't count in our family. If she is still like that in the future, you might as well live in the county. The 500 yuan is enough to buy a house."
Qin Xiang didn't plan to stay at home for long, so she smiled: "Okay." She didn't want Qin Yang to worry about her, so she said, "Third brother, I'm really happy today."
"Yeah." Qin Yang knew that she was planning to divorce. Although it ended like this, she had achieved her wish anyway. It wasn't Qin Xiang's fault. If others talked about it, they could talk back.
Qin Xiang opened her arms and laughed loudly. It was the first time in two lives that she felt so happy. "I'm so happy."
It felt so good to have someone making plans for her.
Not far away, Lian Fengying listened to Qin Xiang's whisper and held back her frown, "Look at her..."
"That's enough, it's rare for the lady to be happy." Qin Baotian listened to this voice, but thought that the lady had talked about divorce before the New Year, and now the voice was mostly about happiness, right?
In fact, in Qin Baotian's concept, you shouldn't get divorced after getting married, but during the New Year, the two sons kept whispering something in his ear, so he figured it out. Rich or poor, promising or not, the lady is unhappy and can't live.
When he came, he was also worried about his decision, but when he saw the smile on the lady's face, he was surprised that it seemed that the lady smiled so happily for the first time since she got married, and the last bit of worry in his heart disappeared.
He knew that Lian Fengying was confused, so he told her, "Watch your mouth, even if you don't like it, just shut up."
Lian Fengying felt wronged, "I'm her mother, and I can't say a word?"
Qin Baotian said impatiently, "You should talk less and make fewer mistakes."
Qin Baotian slowly caught up with him, and didn't mention what happened just now. When he entered Qinjiatun, Qin Xiang saw a fish pond.
She suddenly asked, "Is this fish pond empty now?"
"What can we do if it's not empty? In the past few years, the village didn't make much money from raising fish. Now that the family has contracted the land, everyone is busy farming the land and no one wants to contract it anymore." Qin Yang said, "But when I was driving, I saw people in Nanyi County south of our county raising fish and ducks very enthusiastically. It's really good."
Qin Yang paused, "You don't want to raise fish, do you? Let me tell you, raising fish is a technical job. You can't do it without that level."
Qin Xiang really had this idea before. In her last life, when she went out to play with her friends, she saw some farmhouses doing ecological fish and duck farming, and she even asked people about it out of curiosity. The boss also knew her friend and thought she could invest money, so he explained it to her in detail. Although she had never operated it, she knew some of the specific procedures.
When she first came through, she thought of the idle fish pond in their village, and she wanted to use the fish pond to make her first pot of gold.
But since she planned to retake the college entrance examination, this idea had to change. Now that she can get 500 yuan in compensation, the plan has to be changed. She said, "Third brother, I was thinking about contracting a fish pond to raise fish and ducks, but now I have to take the college entrance examination, I have to make money, I want to change my way."
"What do you want to do?" Qin Yang knew that his sister was smart since she was a child, but he still had to remind her, "It's not easy to be a self-employed person."
Qin Xiang knew what people thought at that time, and felt that being a self-employed person was not decent, but as more and more households with ten thousand yuan were added, who would not envy self-employed people at that time. By the end of the 1980s, many people were willing to stop working and go into business. It was at that time that Wang Junsheng resigned from his position as a cadre of a state-owned enterprise and started his own business.
Qin Xiang was unwilling to give up such a good opportunity even if she had to go to college, and she had to try it anyway.
Qin Xiang said, "I'll think about it for a few days, and I have to make some money."
"Okay, I'll probably go out after the tenth day of the first lunar month. You can tell me if you have any ideas then."
When they got home, they found that the lights in the courtyard were on. Lian Fengying said to ease the atmosphere, "Your second brother and sister-in-law are making dumplings at home. The children are young, so they were not allowed to go with you."
As for why her eldest brother and sister-in-law didn't go, Qin Xiang didn't even want to ask. Her eldest brother and sister-in-law have always been people who don't get up early without benefits. In previous years, they would wait until the dumplings were finished before coming over during the Chinese New Year. It is estimated that when Chen Ning came to report the news, her eldest brother and sister-in-law had not come.
The next second, Tian Zhongmei and Qin Jun came out of the house, "Mom and Dad, where were you doing on New Year's Day? We came here to make dumplings but you didn't even see anyone."
Lian Fengying still felt that it was a bit embarrassing for a young lady to get divorced and didn't want to say anything, but Tian Zhongmei saw Qin Xiang and immediately started yelling, "Hey, why is his aunt back on New Year's Day? Oh, what's the matter? Did she have a fight with Wang Junsheng? Oh, these college students can still quarrel. I'm not saying anything bad about you, but his aunt, a woman should not be like this, you have to coax a man. Why are you going back to your parents' home on New Year's Day? It's so unlucky."
Qin Xiang looked at her speechlessly, "I'm divorced, so I came back."
After that, she went straight into the house.
Qin Jun and his wife were immediately surprised, and went to ask Lian Fengying, "Mom, why did your younger sister get divorced?"
"Wang Junsheng cheated on your younger sister outside, and your younger sister couldn't live with him anymore, so she got divorced." Lian Fengying felt embarrassed and embarrassed to talk about this, but since her eldest daughter-in-law asked, she couldn't hide it. From now on, she would live in her parents' home, and would have to be taken care of by her brother and sister-in-law.
But as soon as Lian Fengying finished speaking, Tanaka Mei started yelling, "What? Really divorced? How can that be? How can a married woman get divorced? Oh, mom, I'm not saying this, she doesn't even like this college student, her aunt is asking for trouble. Mom, this won't do. I heard that a divorced woman is unlucky. If she stays in her parents' home, it will bring disaster to her family and not be good for her brothers. You can't just take care of your daughter and ignore your son, right? Anyway, we don't agree."
Lian Fengying was dumbfounded by what Tanaka Mei said, and didn't know what to do. "But, but they are already divorced, so how can I kick her out? She is my daughter."
Lian Fengying burst into tears after saying this.
Qin Jun at the side also said dissatisfiedly, "Mom, I am your own son, you can't just ignore me, and how can a married girl stay in her parents' home... Hey, third brother, what are you doing?" Qin
Jun was pushed by Qin Yang before he could finish his words. Qin Yang looked at Qin Jun and said, "Get out."
Qin Jun was immediately annoyed, "Third brother, you should understand that you are also a son of the Qin family, and you are not married yet. Who would dare to marry you if you bring back a divorced woman?"
Qin Xiang was reluctant to come out of the room, but Qin Jun's words were too harsh. In her last life, her eldest brother was a scoundrel, and he is not any better in this life either. He is definitely a bastard.
She looked at her eldest brother and said, "First of all, eldest brother, you have already separated from my parents. This is not only your parents' home, but also my parents' home. My parents haven't said they will kick me out, so what qualifications do you have to make decisions here?"
"What are you talking about, aunt?" Tanaka Mei was unhappy. "My parents will live with us in their old age, and this yard will also be ours. Even if you are divorced, it's spilled water. Why do you still want to challenge me here?"
Qin Xiang was annoyed, and she was not used to their problems. "I am challenging you, so what? As long as my parents don't kick me out, this is my home, and it's not your turn to make the decision."
"Mom and Dad, look at what Qin Xiang said. Oh my god, she's divorced and doesn't like her brother and sister-in-law. It's embarrassing."
"Did I embarrass you?" Qin Xiang stepped forward and looked at Tanaka Mei and asked, "Your last name is Tian, and mine is Qin. Your family has separated from mom and dad. Why should I embarrass you? If you think it's embarrassing, stay away from me. I don't like you."
"Hey, how can you talk like that..."
"That's right, you are a piece of shit..."
"Get lost." Qin Yang interrupted Qin Jun and pushed him, "Mom and Dad don't need you to support them in their old age, get lost."
Qin Jun struggled, "Mom, look at this bastard."
Lian Fengying was already panicking. Divorce on New Year's Day was unlucky enough, and now the brothers were fighting because of Qin Xiang. She stomped her feet and said, "Stop fighting, second brother, what are you doing? Come out and stop the fight."
Qin Hai walked out of the house slowly, with his hands in his pockets, looking at the drama in the yard, and said to Lian Fengying, "Mom, isn't this what you're used to? If you hadn't condoned them, would my eldest brother and sister-in-law be like this? Listen to what they said, the third brother didn't beat them up because of you and dad. You asked me to mediate, then I can only take sides."
Qin Xiang almost laughed when she heard her second brother's words.
Her second brother and sister-in-law never liked to meddle in other people's affairs, but she didn't expect that her second brother would say something so hurtful.
As soon as Qin Hai finished speaking, Lian Fengying stomped her feet anxiously, "You can't let them fight, it's not good to fight on New Year's Day. After all, they are your eldest brother and sister-in-law, how can you, as younger brothers and sisters, talk like that."
"Mind your own business." Qin Hai said to Qin Xiang, "It's not cold outside, hurry back to the house to warm up."
Qin Xiang smiled, "Second brother, you go in first."
At this time, Qin Baotian also spoke, "Big brother, if you don't like it, go back to your home. Xiangxiang is our Qin family's child whether she is divorced or not. It doesn't make sense for her to be bullied outside and then be rejected by her family when she returns home. Your mother and I are not dead yet. Well, it's not your turn to make the decisions in this family. If you want to make the decisions, go back to your family."
Qin Jun was unhappy, "Dad, look at what you said, it's like you won't be of any use to us in the future."
Qin Baotian glanced at him, "With the character of you two, your mother and I will starve to death if we follow you. Get out."
Qin Jun and Tanaka Mei were naturally unhappy to be abandoned like this on New Year's Day. But they were afraid of the third child, so they reluctantly took the children away. After the people from the eldest room left, the family quieted down. Lian Fengying glanced at Qin Xiang, sighed and went into the house.
Qin Xiang looked at Qin Yang and said, "Third brother, the road will be open in two days, third brother, come and rent a house with me."
"Aren't you going to live at home?" Qin Yang asked.
Qin Xiang smiled, "I can't stay here anymore."
It doesn't matter if her brother and sister-in-law dislike her, she can see clearly what her mother's attitude is.
She has a hunch that as long as she stays at home, she will definitely not live a peaceful life.
Not to mention her mother, even the people in the village will nag her to death in the name of doing good for her.
Moreover, she doesn't want to be trapped in marriage again when she starts her life again.
Men are dogs, and if she trusts men again, she will really be a dog.
She wants to live like a human being by herself.
If the medical conditions were not so poor these days, she would have wanted to get a sterilization directly, so that others would not worry about her marriage.
"Third brother, don't tell my parents about this for now."
Because Qin Jun and his wife came to make trouble, the atmosphere was not very good when making dumplings.
The only ones who were not affected were probably the second son Qin Hai and his family. The two children were sleeping on the kang, and the second sister-in-law Huang Xiufen was busy making dumplings, adhering to the principle of not saying anything. Qin Hai was holding a thermos cup and squinting his eyes to drink tea. Seeing Lian Fengying's bad face, he couldn't help but said, "Mom, it's the New Year, be happy. What are you doing with your sullen face?"
Lian Fengying felt bitter in her mouth and said unhappily, "Your sister is divorced, how can I be happy?"
"Look, you should be happier because of this." Qin Hai took a sip of tea, and seeing that his parents were looking at him unkindly, he argued for his younger sister, "Look, Xiangxiang is still young now, and she will only be 20 after the Chinese New Year. It is better to divorce Wang Junsheng now than to find out that he is not a good person ten or twenty years later, right? We should stop the loss in time and get out of the sea of suffering as soon as possible."
Qin Xiang gave his second brother a thumbs up. Qin Hai coughed and said implicitly like an official, "So you have to be happy for your younger sister. I also want to congratulate your younger sister on having a better future."
But this is also something that Lian Fengying cannot accept, "If it really takes more than ten years, then we will have children and we can't get divorced."
Qin Hai was stunned, and suddenly laughed, "Well, I won't talk to you anymore. It doesn't make sense to talk to you."
Afterwards, Qin Hai said to Qin Xiang, "Second brother supports your divorce. People have bad natures. If they can cheat once, they can cheat twice. This time he was caught, but who knows if he cheated before. Now he is just a college student, but he is so arrogant. He still wants to hug girls left and right. He has even cheated on people at the doorstep. People are not willing to let you go to the capital at first. Maybe he has cheated on people outside and is afraid that you will find out when you go to the capital."
Qin Xiang had to give his second brother a thumbs up in admiration. Lian Fengying was shocked, "No way?"
"Why not?" Qin Hai said with disdain, "It's very possible. Wang Junsheng thinks he looks like a college student. He is not married at home, and the girl outside doesn't know. Maybe he has a date. Otherwise, why didn't he let Xiangxiang go to the capital with him, and why did he have to separate the couple? And the matter of college entrance examination, don't you think about it, college students are so popular nowadays. Xiangxiang used to study well. If she hadn't eaten badly and had dehydration and couldn't take the math exam, she would be a college student. According to her situation, she can definitely get into college after studying for a year. Only you and dad are stupid. You think it's shameful to let her get married. Just get married. Any smart family should encourage Xiangxiang to go to the capital. Both husband and wife are college students. Isn't it decent to tell others about it? But what did the Wang family do? Can't you see? They don't want Xiangxiang to go to the capital. Maybe the whole family is hiding something from Xiangxiang. "
Qin Hai felt a little sorry for his sister when he talked about this. When Qin Xiang's marriage was settled last year, he only asked Qin Xiang one question and she agreed, so he didn't mix it up. It's a pity. If he had persuaded his sister more at that time, maybe his sister would not have married that bastard Wang Junsheng.
Facing his gaze, Qin Xiang smiled, "Second brother, it's fine now."
It's free to start over in this life, and now I can get to know my second brother again, I'm already very satisfied.
After Qin Hai finished speaking, Huang Xiufen looked up at her and smiled gently, "You should say less."
Qin Hai was happy, "I just advised them not to think too hard about this matter."
He glanced at the two children on the kang and said, "We also have daughters. If anyone dares to bully our daughters in the future, I will definitely make him shit."
"Shut up." Qin Yang said unhappily, "I'm making dumplings, it doesn't matter." Qin Xiang
laughed immediately. Lian Fengying couldn't say anything more during the New Year's Day. Seeing that it was almost twelve o'clock, she instructed Qin Baotian to get firecrackers and prepare to light firecrackers for sacrifice at twelve o'clock.
While cooking dumplings, Lian Fengying was tangled again and said to Qin Xiang, "Why don't you go back to the house?"
There are many taboos when offering sacrifices in the countryside. Qin Xiang understood what her mother meant as soon as she thought about it.
She didn't want to argue with her mother. She would only stay for a few days anyway, so she nodded and
said, "Okay." Then she went back to the house.
The house was where she lived before she got married. Later, her third brother moved in. This time when she came back, her third brother moved to the utility room next door and cleaned up to sleep, leaving the room with a heated kang for Qin Xiang to sleep in.
After Qin Xiang entered the house, Qin Yang wanted to find Lian Fengying to argue, but Qin Hai stopped him and said, "Forget it. Our mother is that kind of person. It's useless for you to say anything. Don't blame Xiangxiang if something happens. Let her rest."
Crackling sounds rang out in the village one after another. Qin Baotian also lit firecrackers in the Qin family's yard. The firecrackers crackled, and the yellow paper burned with huge flames burned particularly vigorously.
Qin Xiang looked through the window, her sight following the gray-black ashes up into the sky.
She smiled.
She was finally divorced.
It had been a while since she was reborn, and it was the first time that Qin Xiang slept so soundly.
When she woke up, the sun had come out outside, and the two children of Qin Hai's family were running around in the yard. Huang Xiufen scolded in a low voice, "Keep your voice down, your aunt is still asleep."
The two children immediately raised their fingers to their mouths, but forgot after a while.
Qin Xiang sat up and put on her clothes. She was still wearing the same cotton-padded jacket as yesterday. She felt in her pocket and found two dimes to give red envelopes to her nephews and nieces.
Just as she was thinking about it, Lian Fengying came over and knocked on the door, "Hurry up and get up, you're busy today."
Yes, today she had to go to Wang's house to get her dowry.
Qin Xiang went out and didn't see her second and third brothers. "Where are the second and third brothers?"
Lian Fengying said unhappily, "They went to find someone. They will go to Wang's house to get the dowry."
Qin Xiang nodded. Lian Fengying saw that there was no one in the house. She hesitated and asked Qin Xiang, "Xiangxiang, mom thought about it all night last night. I just want to ask you one question. Is it really impossible for you and Wang Junsheng to be together?"
"Isn't it? The marriage is over. Can you get back together?" After experiencing the stab in the back by her own mother last night, Qin Xiang has accepted her mother like this. In this family, not only her mother but also her father and her two brothers care about her, so she doesn't need to feel bad because of her mother's words.
Doesn't her mother feel distressed? Not really. It's just that her mother's ideas are easily influenced by others, and she is very proud, so she always thinks divorce is shameful.
But she really can't accept that she agrees with this kind of heartache.
Since she can't change it and can't accept it, just pretend that she can't hear it. If she doesn't care, she won't be hurt.
Lian Fengying sighed and said with worry, "Mom has grown older and experienced more. It's difficult for a divorced woman to find a good family again. Who will not despise you in your situation?"
Qin Xiang said indifferently, "Then don't look for one, and I don't plan to look for one. They despise me, and I don't like them either."
"How can that be." In Lian Fengying's cognition, women must get married and have children. Divorce is wrong, and not getting married is also wrong. Now that I'm divorced, if I continue to live in my parents' home without getting married, the gossip in this village will drown me.
"Xiangxiang, I tell you, a woman's life is like this. You can't not get married because of a small matter. It's not right. What your sister-in-law said last night was right..."
"You can tell her what she said." Qin Xiang knew it, clapped her hands and went out, "Whether it works out or not, this is what I'm going to do."
Seeing that Lian Fengying wanted to say more, the smile in Qin Xiang's eyes faded, and she looked at her mother and said, "Mom, if you want to acknowledge me as your daughter, don't say these things anymore. People are all made of flesh and blood, and I can't help but remember it in my heart. I have come to understand the divorce. Men are unreliable. If you make me feel that my parents' family is unreliable, then I may really not come back in the future."
Lian Fengying looked at Qin Xiang, but she didn't agree. But when she opened her mouth to say something, she couldn't say anything.
During breakfast, Lian Fengying wanted to speak up several times, wanting her son and her husband to persuade Qin Xiang, but she knew that once she did, Qin Baotian and Qin Yang would not let her go, so she did not dare to speak up. Anyway, it is impossible for a woman not to get married, otherwise, as Tanaka Mei said, it would be bad for her brothers. Although it is a new society, we still have to pay attention to what we should pay attention to.
After breakfast, Qin Yang said to Qin Baotian, "Dad, today my second brother and I will take our Qin family to ask for the dowry, you don't have to go."
"Okay."
Qin Baotian always knew that it was fine if his second son didn't join in. Since the second son went with him, he could stop the third son from doing anything, so he didn't say much, "Go early and come back early, it's busy during the New Year."
At this time, Huang Xiufen came in from outside and said to Qin Xiang, "Xiangxiang, I just saw your former mother-in-law go to your eldest sister-in-law's house."
Qin Xiang's mind moved. She and Wang Junsheng were divorced, why did Wang Lianhua come to her eldest sister-in-law? She couldn't help but think of what Zhang Fengmei said before. Is there really something fishy about her college entrance examination?
Before she could figure it out, the eldest sister-in-law's family next door suddenly quarreled.
