The woman knew that this was a compromise made by her in-laws so that she could take the child after the divorce.
She understood that they didn't want to take care of the children, and that the two children wouldn't have an easy life if they stayed behind.
On the contrary, this family's desire for them to divorce is genuine.
So, under the constant persuasion of her in-laws, the woman finally wavered.
At that very moment, a well-off man in the factory where the woman worked began to approach her, intentionally or unintentionally.
He was often around her, showing her great care and attention. He would give her small gifts or invite her to meals.
His appearance brought a sense of warmth and comfort to the woman who had been in a state of turmoil, and she began to develop feelings for him.
However, what she didn't know was that this gay man was only approaching her at someone else's behest.
Actually, the man really liked his sister-in-law, who worked as a nurse at the hospital.
The reason he intentionally or unintentionally approached women and engaged in ambiguous relationships was simply because he was instructed by his sister-in-law.
The woman never dreamed that her sister-in-law, who always greeted her with smiles and addressed her as "sister-in-law," would do such a thing behind her back—instructing her suitor to deliberately approach her, all in an attempt to get her to divorce her husband.
The woman ultimately wavered between a young, handsome gay man and a husband who rarely came home.
She began to doubt whether her decision was right. She started to wonder if divorce was really the best option for her.
She began to reminisce about the days she spent with her husband, and was surprised to find that there was almost nothing to remember between them.
Especially after the two got married, his memories were all about taking care of his parents-in-law, his younger sister-in-law and brother-in-law who were still young, and then taking care of the children.
The marriage she had worked so hard to obtain brought her nothing more than a cycle of labor and caring for others.
Even before they got married, it seemed like she was always the one chasing after men.
It wasn't until this man appeared that she truly felt loved and cared for.
Ultimately, the woman agreed to the divorce. She and her husband signed the divorce papers, ending their years-long marriage.
After the divorce, the woman thought she could start a new life, but instead, the man who used to be around her suddenly changed his attitude.
Not only did he lose his initial enthusiasm for her, but he also mocked her when she came to him, saying that an old woman with a face full of wrinkles dared to have designs on him, making the woman unable to even lift her head in the factory.
Therefore, the woman's divorce was very unusual, and it was all the result of her husband's family's scheming.
Her husband was a soldier who was stationed at the military base year-round and rarely came home.
Her in-laws became increasingly dissatisfied with her, feeling that she could no longer bring them more honor and benefits.
What's more, his son has now hooked up with the regimental commander's daughter, so the whole family started plotting against her.
The goal was to have his son marry a female soldier from a performing arts troupe, so that he could both save face and gain connections.
These women are unaware that, of course, the reason they have ended up in this situation is not only due to the scheming of their in-laws, but also to their own wavering stance. In a way, they have only themselves to blame.
If this matter had been kept secret, perhaps everything would have remained peaceful. After all, the soldier was very clever; after the divorce, aside from regularly sending money home, he never returned. His wedding to the female soldier from the performing arts troupe was held in the military base; they were in the same unit. After their marriage, he never returned to Beijing, completely severing ties with his wife and child. So, to this day, the woman has no idea that her husband remarried shortly after their divorce.
However, now that this matter has been brought to light, many things can no longer withstand investigation. It remains to be seen whether Qiangzi's new sister-in-law's father will be able to withstand scrutiny.
If she can't hold on, wouldn't she be ruining Qiangzi's family?
The reason Meng Xiaohui knew so much inside information was because the soldier she mentioned was not just her neighbor.
The reason she knew all this so clearly was because she was Qiangzi's younger brother, who was in the army, and the girlfriend he had told his family about; the two were secretly dating.
She was the one who strongly advocated for Qiangzi's original sister-in-law to take the child away. After all, if she didn't find a better man and ended up marrying Qiangzi anyway, she didn't want to be raising someone else's child as soon as she entered the family.
If she were to marry Qiangzi, she would be the one who least wants anything to happen to Qiangzi's older brother.
You have to understand that Qiangzi and his family are living the way they do now because of their eldest son, who is a military officer.
If that soldier were to investigate Qiangzi's older brother because of what she said, and accidentally reveal that the information came from her, then he and Qiangzi would be finished.
After all, Qiangzi's mother didn't approve of her, otherwise they wouldn't have been dating for several years, but still secretly and dared not tell their families.
Of course, there was also the reason why her mother didn't approve of Qiangzi. In her mother's words, Qiangzi and his family were all bad people, and any woman who married into their family would suffer.
However, she disagreed with her mother's statement. In her opinion, the reason why Qiangzi's sister-in-law was having a bad life was entirely because she was weak and incompetent. If she had been a little more assertive, she wouldn't have ended up like this.
