When he brought his daughter home in great pain, Xu Meiling and several other wives in the village were playing cards on the kang.

In winter, girls and wives like to sit on the kang and play this game, betting on whether they will win or not, just for fun.

The room was heated by a heated kang, so it was warm, which formed a sharp contrast with his coolness.

He carefully put the child in the room.

When he returned to the house, he bit his prey fiercely like an angry lion.

He rushed in without thinking, and directly overturned the table on the kang, not even sparing the things on the kang. He threw and smashed everything in the room, like a vicious and ruthless madman.

The women on the bed were all terrified, including Xu Meiling.

Chen Jianghe has always been a proud, gentle, good-tempered man in front of others, looking gentle and elegant.

Although he had spent so much time in the countryside, he never allowed himself to behave or talk like a farmer, as he felt that it lowered his status and that farmers had no quality.

But at this moment, in front of so many people, he didn't even want the last piece of fig leaf.

"I let you guys gamble! Fuck your ass!" He smashed the things and cursed at the same time.

The frightened women took the opportunity to flee.

Xu Meiling felt a little weak. She tried to shrink her fat body into a corner, but was hit by something he threw at her. She screamed in pain.

"Chen Jianghe, what are you crazy about!"

"I'm crazy, totally crazy!

Do you feel pain? Xu Meiling, you have ruined this generation! People are not human, and families are not families.

You disgust me so much, I want to vomit when I see you, so disgusting, so disgusting." Chen Jianghe said as he actually leaned over the cabinet and vomited.

Whatever you vomit out is bitter because your stomach is empty.

He had taken the child out since noon, and had not eaten a single bite of food or drunk a single sip of water until now, when it was almost dark.

When Xu Meiling heard the man say this, a feeling of bitterness, grievance, inferiority and anger welled up in her head at the same time, and she felt a mixture of emotions and tears flowed.

"Chen Jianghe, you finally spoke your true feelings. You just despised me and never thought of taking me back to Liaocheng, right?"

Chen Jianghe raised his head and looked at Xu Meiling as if she were a human. The words on the tip of his tongue stopped abruptly when he saw the score strip on the ground.

He couldn't completely break up with Xu Meiling now. The child was already beyond saving, and his own life couldn't be ruined with him.

He wants to go to school to get rid of Xu Meiling, this disgusting woman.

Don't be impatient, stay calm, stay calm.

"Your child is so injured, and you, as a mother, still want to play cards. You are really hopeless!

I don't think you will come back to Liaocheng with me. You can stay in Xujiatun for the rest of your life. I will take the children back by myself." He said this after holding it in for a long time.

In fact, he concealed the child's illness, which was tantamount to giving up this young lady.

He knew that Xu Meiling would never let him take the child away alone. She knew too well that the child was his weak spot. With the child, he could come back to pick up the mother and daughter.

So he took advantage of this information gap to make Xu Meiling let him go.

It was a difficult decision and it was painful inside, but the child had already come to this point and his life could not follow him into the abyss.

As expected, Xu Meiling objected immediately: "Impossible! Chen Jianghe, I tell you, you either take Miaomiao and I away together, or don't take either of us."

As long as Miaomiao was there, she was not afraid that this man would not come back to pick them up.

She didn't know that Miaomiao was no longer Chen Jianghe's soft spot.

Chen Jianghe looked angry, walked over without saying a word and picked up the child.

He looked at Miaomiao seriously, as if he wanted to carve her into himself, and a tear fell on the child's hand.

Miaomiao, I'm sorry, don't blame dad for being cruel. This is my last chance to turn things around.

Does Chen Jianghe love Miaomiao? Yes, but not much. His love is conditional. He loves a healthy and lively child, not a worthless child who will be a burden to him in the future.

So he hesitated for only a few seconds before he chose to give up the child without hesitation and pave the way for himself.

In the following period of time, Chen Jianghe began to cherish the time with his children.

At the same time, Xiao has been paving the way for herself. She seems to be compromising with Xu Meiling, but in fact she has her own selfish desires.

He even managed to get a blank piece of paper signed by Xu Meiling, and he added the contents of the divorce agreement on the front.

With this piece of paper, he will be completely free.

Soon, the acceptance letter came, and it was time to make a decision.

Chen Jianghe only took a few dozen dollars with him and left the rest of his family savings to Xu Meiling, asking her to wait at home with the child and come back to pick him up after he was settled.

Although Xu Meiling really wanted to go with him, Chen Jianghe listed many problems and said that the timing was not right and he could not bring his family with him.

Moreover, he took the initiative to leave the family's money and daughter, so Xu Meiling felt a little relieved and agreed to let him go first.

And this departure was a farewell forever. She never saw this man again in this life.

That’s all in the past.

Lin Shengnan and Zhu Chunlin were admitted back to the south as they wished. Although their scores were not particularly high, the majors they applied for were ordinary colleges, so they had no problem getting into the college.

Both husband and wife work at the Yujie Soap Factory, with a stable monthly income of RMB 10. Over the past year or so, they have saved a lot of money.

It's free to study there, and there's a subsidy every month, so it doesn't cost much.

If they were frugal with their money, it would be enough to last them until they finished school and got jobs, and then everything would be better and better.

To be honest, I'm a little reluctant to leave here. On the one hand, as long as we work hard, we won't starve to death here, and we are both old employees of the Yujie Soap Factory, and our treatment will only get better and better in the future.

They are used to this kind of self-sufficient life.

However, everyone has their own aspirations, and everyone wants to go back to the city if they have the chance. Studying means a change in class, and they will be able to hold a stable job in the country in the future. Besides, they can't stay in the countryside all their lives.

While waiting for the notice, the two began to pack their things and say goodbye to the familiar people in the village.

The two of them packed up the things in the house and gave them away.

Lin Shengnan wrote to Gu Qinghuan, informing him of her and her family's recent situation, and sent him half a bag of pine nuts, which she exchanged with the villagers for her family's food. Gu Qinghuan liked to eat this, she remembered.

There were 30 people who went to take the college entrance examination in Xujiatun, which was quite good compared with the neighboring villages.

Chen Jianghe, Lin Shengnan and Zhu Chunlin, as well as Lin Xiaomeng, Yan Lijun and the male educated youth at the educated youth site.

Lin Shengnan and Zhu Chunlin's academic performance was not very good, and they had to work and study at the same time, so they took the exam entirely relying on the study materials provided by Gu Qinghuan.

There were also Jiang Meng and his wife, who, relying on the information provided by Gu Qinghuan, one was admitted to a technical secondary school and the other to a college.

It's a pity for Qiu Shuxia. She overestimated her ability and applied for a local major in an attempt to escape from here. However, her score was too low and she failed the exam.
