Chapter 7
As soon as Qin Xiang said this, Wang Junsheng was stunned and looked at Qin Xiang in astonishment, unable to believe it.
Yes, in this era, divorce is a big deal, not to mention in the backward countryside, even in the city. A divorced man can find another wife, but a woman will be criticized and pointed at from the moment of divorce.
But is Qin Xiang afraid?
The experience and lessons of her previous life told her that fear is the most useless thing. It is really stupid to drag on without divorce for the so-called reputation and face.
If you meet a scumbag, you must stay away from him as soon as possible. If someone hits you in the face, you must hit him back hard. If you are not tough, you will always be the one who gets hurt.
So she was able to look at Wang Junsheng calmly after she finished speaking, but Wang Junsheng did not accept it at all.
Wang Junsheng said, "Qin Xiang, do you know what you are talking about?"
Qin Xiang looked at him and said calmly, "Of course I know, I am talking about divorce. You think I am a stupid woman, then I, a stupid woman, should not stay by your side to embarrass you."
After saying that, Qin Xiang turned her face away and refused to look at him, which completely ignited Wang Junsheng's anger.
"You actually want to divorce me just to take the college entrance examination." Wang Junsheng couldn't accept this. He looked at Qin Xiang and felt that he didn't know Qin Xiang this time. They did not spend much time together before, but in his impression, Qin Xiang was gentle and sensible. When he came back in the summer, Qin Xiang took good care of his life and never mentioned the college entrance examination.
But now he suddenly went crazy and insisted on taking the college entrance examination at the cost of divorce?
Wang Junsheng showed deep disappointment on his face, "I am so disappointed in you."
Qin Xiang sneered, "Since you value our relationship so much, are you willing to give up the college entrance examination?"
"It's not the same." Wang Junsheng lowered his voice and looked at Qin Xiang and said, "How can it be the same? I'm a man. How can I support my wife and children without a career?"
Qin Xiang sarcastically said, "So you can't give up for me, but you ask me to give up my own pursuits and ideals for our marriage, and stay in this village like all the left-behind women waiting for their men to come back and give them a few dollars, and be grateful for such charity. If it's really for my own good, why can't you pull me along to make progress and fight side by side with me?"
In her previous life, she had never had such an idea. She stayed at home obediently until Wang Junsheng got a job and his work was stable before following him out. After arriving there, she was also required to wash clothes and cook at home. Wang Junsheng said that she was too beautiful and he dared not let her go out because there were many bad people outside and he was afraid that she would be in danger.
She believed him. Later, Wang Junsheng was unhappy with his job and wanted to go out to the outside world. Qin Xiang didn't know anything at that time, but she encouraged Wang Junsheng to try. Then she went out of the house and started working as a nanny. She did a few odd jobs and started to worry about the family's life.
Didn't she envy those young female college students?
In her previous life, Wang Xiao repeated her studies for two years and only got into a junior college. When she saw her, her nose was upturned. After Wang Junsheng became successful, Wang Xiao even talked about her sister-in-law with others outside. Most of them were contemptuous. They felt that Qin Xiang was not worthy of her excellent brother except for her face when she was young.
She was unhappy, and Wang Junsheng even said that she, as a sister-in-law, was too narrow-minded to argue with her sister-in-law.
How could she have endured it at that time?
She did endure a good life, but she also endured betrayal.
There were some things that she didn't think about carefully at that time, but when she looked at them carefully again, she found that Wang Junsheng had always been a selfish person from beginning to end. Then it was not surprising that he got involved with Cui Hong later.
Qin Xiang let go of her past life and only asked to get a divorce as soon as possible in this life and stay away from this family. She didn't want to fall into the cesspool of the Wang family again in this life.
Wang Junsheng looked at Qin Xiang for a long time without being able to speak. He did not dare to speak out his inner thoughts. He could only avoid Qin Xiang's eyes and then lie down on the kang. "I won't quarrel with you. Our life is good now. Why do you have to make a fuss? Even if you make a fuss, will there be any result? Qin Xiang, we are husband and wife. I want to stand in front to protect you from the wind and rain and let you enjoy yourself at home. Why can't you trust me?"
"Let me believe you, at least you should believe me too." Qin Xiang was speechless. "You don't believe that I can pass the exam and become as good as your female classmates. How can you ask me to believe you too?"
Wang Junsheng directly refused to answer, covered his head with the quilt, turned over and refused to pay attention to Qin Xiang.
Looking at this situation, Qin Xiang wanted to smash this dog man's head with a stone. What a thing.
Fearing that she would go berserk, Qin Xiang pushed the door open and went out.
It was freezing outside, and there were shadows of people at the windows of each room. She didn't know how long she had been listening.
Qin Xiang ignored them, went to the toilet, came back to wash up, then went to the kang, spread out the quilt, and slept directly at the other end. She was really worried that she would wake up in the middle of the night and suffocate Wang Junsheng.
Seeing her like this, Wang Junsheng didn't say anything. After the kerosene lamp went out and there was a rustling sound, Wang Junsheng also ran over here, pulling Qin Xiang's quilt and trying to get into the quilt.
Qin Xiang was malicious and pulled the quilt, saying, "Wang Junsheng, what are you doing?"
Wang Junsheng was wearing autumn clothes and felt a little cold, "Let me in first."
"Go back to your quilt." Qin Xiang refused to give in. This bastard deserved to be frozen to death. Wang
Junsheng said, "We are husband and wife."
Qin Xiang said, "Why are you crazy?"
"I'm not crazy." Wang Junsheng lowered his voice and said, "I know you haven't had your period. Qin Xiang, what's wrong with you? Aren't you happy that I'm back? Isn't that normal for a couple? But you actually lied to me. Aren't you crazy?"
Wang Junsheng didn't worry whether Qin Xiang had a lover. He still had this confidence. As long as he doesn't go out, he will be the first student of a prestigious university in the surrounding area, and no man will be better than him.
He wondered if Qin Xiang had wanted to take the college entrance examination for a long time, and deliberately used this matter to force him to agree to it.
Wang Junsheng didn't want to encourage Qin Xiang's arrogance, nor did he think that Qin Xiang really wanted to divorce. He just felt that Qin Xiang was deliberately forcing him.
Can he agree?
Of course not.
If he was a little reluctant before, now seeing Qin Xiang making a fuss, he was more determined not to let Qin Xiang go out.
"Qin Xiang, how many girls in the surrounding area have a better life than you?" Wang Junsheng tried to pull Qin Xiang's quilt, but was kicked by Qin Xiang through the quilt. He was immediately angry, "Qin Xiang, you're not done yet, right?"
"Yes, it's not over yet." The moonlight was very bright tonight, and the faint moonlight poured into the house. Wang Junsheng couldn't see Qin Xiang's expression clearly in the darkness, otherwise he would definitely see the disgust and hatred in Qin Xiang's eyes. Qin Xiang gritted her teeth and said, "There is no room for negotiation on this matter. Before that, you should stay away from me. I feel disgusted when I see you."
She paused, "Wang Junsheng, if you are a man, you should divorce me quickly. What kind of man are you if you drag it out like this?" "
You know best whether I am a man or not. If you want to divorce me, don't
even think about it." Wang Junsheng was also angry. It was too cold for a long time, so he pulled his quilt to cover himself, but he refused to go to the other side.
Qin Xiang ignored him and went to sleep by herself. Listening to Qin Xiang's breathing, Wang Junsheng was even more angry and couldn't sleep.
Wang Junsheng couldn't sleep, so he got dressed and went out. Cui Lianhua also came out of the house. Seeing Wang Junsheng standing there, she worriedly asked, "What's wrong, Third Brother? Did you quarrel with Qin Xiang?"
Wang Junsheng didn't say anything. Cui Lianhua was anxious and said in a low voice, "What's the matter? Can't she explain it? Is she still going to take the college entrance examination?"
Without hearing Wang Junsheng's answer, Cui Lianhua covered her mouth and cried, "Third Brother, Qin Xiang is wild. She doesn't like our Wang family. What can we do?"
Cui Lianhua's words hit Wang Junsheng's heart like a heavy hammer.
If you say he likes Qin Xiang, then he definitely likes her. There is no young man who doesn't like such a beautiful girl, but if you say he loves Qin Xiang, it's not that bad. Compared with these loves, he loves himself more.
Qin Xiang's beautiful daughter did give him face. When he took Qin Xiang to a high school class reunion in the summer, many people envied him for his success in both love and career. But one day when his wife wanted to see the outside world, Wang Junsheng panicked and was unwilling to admit that there were more outstanding people out there. He was worried that Qin Xiang would become wild and find someone else, so where would he put his face?
Wang Junsheng thought of the divorce Qin Xiang had proposed to him, and he couldn't help but feel upset. He said to Cui Lianhua, "Mom, I will persuade her. You go back to your room and sleep. She is just angry and annoyed that I haven't come back for so long."
Cui Lianhua sighed and nodded, "I hope so."
She paused and said to Wang Junsheng, "Junsheng, you are the hope of the Wang family. You are a college student at the head of our village. You should love your wife, but you can't get used to it. Do you understand?"
Wang Junsheng nodded, "I understand."
Not wanting to listen to the nagging anymore, Wang Junsheng went back to his room directly.
Because he found an excuse for divorce, Qin Xiang slept soundly and peacefully. As for Wang Junsheng, he tossed and turned all night and had a lot of strange dreams. One moment he was living in a big house with Qin Xiang, and the next moment he was driving a car with high spirits.
When he woke up and looked at Qin Xiang beside him, Wang Junsheng suddenly felt upset. He put on his clothes
and went out. His mother and sister-in-law were not up yet to cook. Wang Junsheng breathed in the cold air, wrapped his coat tightly, and then opened the door and went out.
The morning in the countryside was chilly everywhere, and every breath was a white mist. Wang Junsheng felt a little cold. The thickness of his coat was limited. Even though he wore a thin cotton coat under his body and a sweater on the outside, he still felt cold.
But when he walked out of the countryside, he no longer imagined wearing heavy cotton jackets and trousers like the villagers. He looked so rustic and ugly that no one could look at him directly. Dressing like that would make him look as vulgar as a country man.
Wang Junsheng stamped his feet and walked slowly back along the east road.
The Wang family is located to the east of Wangjiazhuang. Follow the dirt road in the village all the way east. There is a water bank near the easternmost edge of the village. There is a small hill there one mile north of the water bank.
In the winter morning, the mud on the road was frozen, but there was no mud. Wang Junsheng took a casual stroll and arrived at the back of the village.
Far away, Wang Junsheng saw a figure coming from the hill behind, carrying a basket on his arm and some firewood on his back.
The other person had a slender figure, wearing a light red waist-hugging blouse, and her long hair was divided into two strands and gently placed in front of her chest.
Perhaps she saw the person coming, she raised her head, and her eyes on her pretty face were like a deer, full of water droplets.
Wang Junsheng breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't expect to see Cui Hong so early in the morning. It was quiet everywhere. Why did she get up so early?
"Brother Junsheng."
Cui Hong just called out, and suddenly her feet stumbled, and she fell to the ground with the firewood.
