Chapter 383 When disaster strikes, everyone flees
Two earth-shaking events happened in society one after another, and of course the Xiao family knew about it.
The mother and daughter were stunned. They thought they would be able to take revenge soon, but now their backer has fallen.
The two of them seemed to have become quails and became obedient.
At night, Xiao's father looked at his wife with a dark face and scolded her angrily: "Now we have no support. Because of our relationship with relatives, we may be investigated. For the future, we must divorce!"
Xiao's mother looked at her husband in a daze. Thanks to the support of her relatives, her husband had been promoted from an ordinary clerk to his current high position over the years.
Only then did he move into a courtyard that was envied and envied by everyone.
Over the years, her husband has been very obedient to her and she has lived a very comfortable life.
It was only after the mother and daughter became bald in the past few months that her husband's attitude changed.
Now that her backer is gone, her husband has turned against her and wants to dump her.
She said with a face full of grievance: "Mr. Xiao, check your conscience. If it weren't for my relatives, would you have been able to climb to your current position? Now you want a divorce, doesn't it hurt to check your conscience?"
The man said earnestly, "Women are really short-sighted. You have ruined a good hand of cards. You have made no progress in all these years. I am not only doing this to protect my son, but also to plan for our future. If we just wait for the investigation team to come, our whole family will be ruined."
Xiao's mother suddenly felt a chill. In this family, on the surface, they doted on their daughter, but in fact, they valued their son Xiao Pengcheng more.
They heard that daughters are raised in wealth and sons are raised in poverty, so Xiao Tingting was brought up in pampering, but they had strict requirements for their son, hoping that he would bring glory to the family when he grew up.
Although the general environment does not attach importance to learning, under their strict requirements, Xiao Pengcheng has been immersed in the world of learning since he was a child, and now he is full of bookish air.
Xiao's mother looked at her husband in confusion and asked, "It's not that serious, is it? We didn't do anything."
Father Xiao said sarcastically, "What haven't you done yet? If you and your daughter hadn't been constantly reporting on Old Man Chen, would you have been targeted by your relatives and would you have been punished?"
Mother Xiao was stunned.
Father Xiao softened his tone and said, "This is also a trade-off. We have a son and a daughter, so why are you worried? When this is over, we will remarry."
Xiao's mother was persuaded by the soft and hard persuasion, and soon thought of something and said, "Boss, how about a divorce and I leave alone, and Tingting stay too?"
Father Xiao shook his head stubbornly and said, "Aren't these things caused by that damn girl? I rented a small courtyard for you. After we get divorced tomorrow, you can move in with your daughter. You won't be lonely with your daughter by your side."
Mother Xiao suddenly sensed something and asked doubtfully, "Is there no need to be so anxious?"
Father Xiao glared at her fiercely and scolded: "Do you think others are just here to eat and do nothing? In order to protect our son and for our future, we should complete the formalities as soon as possible."
In fact, Father Xiao had been thinking hard these past few days and finally came up with this good way to protect himself.
On the surface, it was for his son, but in fact it was for himself.
He wanted to get rid of the mother and daughter and save his life.
For the sake of her son and her future, Xiao's mother had no choice but to agree reluctantly.
The two quickly went through the divorce procedures, and Xiao's mother then told her daughter about it.
Although Xiao Tingting is willful and capricious, she is not stupid.
Guess, her father abandoned her and her mother.
"Mom, you are so confused! Dad doesn't want us anymore, what are we going to do in the future?"
"Tingting, what are you talking about? We are getting divorced for your brother and for the future. When the storm is over, we will of course remarry."
"Mom, you've been deceived by my dad. He definitely doesn't want us anymore... wuwu..."
"No, your father not only rented a house for us, but also gave me one thousand yuan. This money is enough for my mother and I to spend for a long time. Your father also said that I can come back to get more money when I run out of money."
Xiao Tingting said in a tone of regret: "Mom, stop dreaming. My dad only cares about himself and it's too cruel to drive us away! If you want to move, do it yourself. I won't move!"
Mother Xiao shook her head and sighed, "Tingting, it's too late to say anything now. For your brother and for the future, should we move out?"
Xiao Tingting shook her head, "No!"
Since her mother refused to change her mind, she could only make her own calculations.
In the evening, Xiao's father came back and saw that the mother and daughter had not moved out yet. He asked gloomily, "Why didn't you move?"
Xiao Tingting was unwilling to be dumped, and said pitifully: "Dad, I can't bear to leave you. I want to follow you and my brother. I will be filial to you in the future."
Father Xiao said coldly: "No! I have to go to work and don't have time to take care of you at home. Anyway, your mother doesn't have to go to work recently, so you and your daughter will have company together."
Xiao Tingting did not give up and continued to beg, "Dad, you have always loved me since I was a child, why are you so cruel? I admit that I was too willful before, but I won't do that again in the future. I will honor you together with my brother."
Father Xiao was not moved at all, and said in a cold tone: "It's too late! Since you and your daughter don't want to move, I will find a few people to help you move."
Xiao Tingting's heart suddenly turned cold, tears fell in strings, and she continued to play the victim, "Dad, can we move tomorrow? It will be dark soon?"
Xiao Pengcheng felt sorry for his sister and helped her out, "Dad, can we let mom and big sister move tomorrow?"
Father Xiao sternly said to his son: "This is none of your business. Go inside and study."
Seeing his son leaving with his head turned back every few steps, he yelled at the mother and daughter, "Stop talking nonsense! We said we're moving today, so we have to move!"
He immediately called a few people to help with the move.
The frustrated mother and daughter of the Xiao family, along with a bunch of bags and things that had not yet been packed up on a cart, walked towards the gate of the compound.
On the way, I met some acquaintances who were leaving get off work. They asked curiously, "Old Xiao, it's getting dark, where are you going?"
The Xiao family's mother and daughter didn't want to let such a shameful thing spread, and they didn't know what to say.
However, Xiao's father wanted people to know about the divorce.
He said to everyone with a sad face: "My wife is in a bad mood recently, and she divorced me with our daughter. Don't you want to move out? I advised them to move tomorrow, but the mother and daughter refused to do so. I had to find a few people to help..."
Originally, Xiao's mother thought that her husband divorced her for the sake of their son and their future. However, when she heard her husband's words, she suddenly came to her senses.
Her face suddenly changed, and she immediately jumped up and cursed, "Xiao, you think I'm useless and want to get rid of us. It was you who said we should move out today so as not to affect your career. Now you are throwing dirty water on us, are you still a human being?"
Father Xiao kept glaring at Mother Xiao, but Mother Xiao didn't take it seriously at all and kept cursing and bringing up her own family affairs.
Xiao's father was furious and took Xiao's mother away.
Everyone understood that Xiao's mother's backer relatives had fallen from power, and Xiao's father kicked the mother and daughter away. Now the monkeys scatter when the tree falls.
Everyone was discussing in private, saying that Xiao's father was so cruel!
The news spread quickly and reached the Xiao family. Chen Kexin smiled and said, "The Xiao family fled when the disaster struck!"
