Chapter 4: Divorce is a Must

That night, Jiang Hanyan slept soundly. What she didn’t know was that she was shrouded in white mist while sleeping, and a thin layer of dirt appeared on the surface of her skin. In the morning, Jiang Hanyan woke up beautifully, stretched her body, and found that her body was extremely dirty.

Moreover, she felt much better than yesterday and she wasn't dizzy anymore. Jiang Hanyan could clearly feel that her body and her soul were more firmly connected. This must be the effect of the space.

After taking a shower, Jiang Hanyan felt refreshed. Looking in the mirror, she found that her body became even more beautiful. Her skin was as white and tender as a freshly peeled egg, her eyes were beautiful and her smile was charming. She looked pitiful before, but now she was full of energy and spirit.

Jiang Hanyan bared her teeth in the mirror. She was in a good mood and took Doudou out for breakfast. There were many rice noodle stalls on the street. They were not expensive, only 80 cents a bowl, and adding an egg was only one dollar. They tasted very good.

Those who came to have breakfast were all neighbors. They kept looking at Jiang Hanyan and whispering, but no one came to talk to her. Jiang Hanyan ordered two bowls of rice noodles, ate, paid, and took Doudou home.

"Lu Chen is really something. He doesn't even go home with such a beautiful wife."

"He didn't marry her willingly. I heard that this woman drugged Lu Chen. If she wasn't pregnant, Lu Chen wouldn't marry her."

"It seems that they haven't even got a marriage certificate, and haven't even arranged the wine. I think when the child is born, Lu Chen will definitely drive this woman away!"

"That's not necessarily true. How could I bear to part with such a beautiful wife? Love grows over time!"

Everyone was chatting and laughing in a frivolous tone, looking down on Jiang Hanyan.

After returning home, Jiang Hanyan asked Doudou to watch TV while she went out to buy some vegetables and a bag of fresh chicken blood.

After lunch, Jiang Hanyan tore off the cotton bag, sprinkled the chicken blood on the bed and pants, then lay down, covered herself with a quilt, and groaned in pain a few times. Sure enough, the clever little Doudou ran over and looked at her nervously.

"Do you know Uncle Lu's phone number?" Jiang Hanyan asked weakly.

Doudou nodded.

"Call Uncle Lu and ask him to go home. Tell him that Aunt Jiang is seriously ill." Jiang Hanyan handed Doudou a note saying that she was seriously ill and asked Lu Chen to go home. She felt a little guilty. It was not good to lie to a child.

Doudou ran out, holding the note tightly, and ran to the store in the alley. She stood on tiptoe to hand the note to the proprietress.

"Are you sick?"

The proprietress frowned. She had come out to eat rice noodles in the morning and ate a big bowl. She didn't look sick. Jiang Hanyan was playing tricks every other day, cheating money from Lu Chen to buy this and that for herself and even take the money back to her parents' home. She had never bought anything for Doudou and Lu Chen.

Doudou nodded seriously, pointed at the phone and urged the boss's wife to make a call.

"I'll go and take a look."

The proprietress didn't believe it. She had received favors from Grandpa Lu Chen in the past and was one of the few neighbors in this alley who was on good terms with Lu Chen. She took Doudou to the Lu family. Jiang Hanyan heard the footsteps, groaned a few times, and then put some water on her face.

"Han Yan, what's wrong with you?"

The proprietress asked as she entered the room. She was shocked to see Jiang Hanyan lying on the bed, sweating profusely, looking pale, and curled up in pain. She quickly moved to the bedside and said with concern, "I'll take you to the hospital."

Although she didn't like Jiang Hanyan, she was pregnant with Lu Chen's baby after all. The boss lady was very nervous and afraid that something might happen to the child.

"No... no need, Aunt, tell Lu Chen to go home!"

Jiang Han spoke in a faint voice, feeling nervous and panicky. She was exposed if she went to the hospital. She didn't expect that a bully like Lu Chen would have such a kind-hearted neighbor. She miscalculated.

The boss lady tried to persuade her, but Jiang Hanyan insisted on seeing Lu Chen, so she had to go back and call Lu Chen. As soon as the call was connected, she shouted, "Lu Chen, come back soon. Hanyan is sick and refuses to go to the hospital. This time it should be true. I went to see her."

"I'll be right back."

Lu Chen hung up the phone and leaned against the windowsill in deep thought. His cold temperament made him look like an ice sculpture and no one dared to approach him.

What tricks is Jiang Hanyan trying to play?

Lu Chen pressed his temples tiredly. There was an accident in the coal mine these days. He has been working all night for several nights. He takes a nap when he is tired. He really doesn't want to go home. Once he goes back, he will quarrel. Jiang Hanyan either asks for money or complains that he is incompetent, which makes him very irritated.

But this woman was pregnant with his child, and he couldn't just ignore it.

Lu Chen frowned, feeling very agitated. He took out a cigarette, took a few puffs and then put it out. He didn't like smoking and would only take a few puffs when he was extremely agitated.

The bitter smell of tobacco calmed him down a little. Lu Chen threw away the cigarette butt and called his boss to ask for leave.

"Third brother, I have something to do at home, so I'll go back. Don't worry about the mine, I'll make arrangements."

"Is the woman at home making trouble again? Xiao Lu, your method won't work. Listen to me. You can't be polite to women. Give them a few slaps and they will behave themselves."

The man on the phone had a hoarse voice. People outside called him Third Brother. He was good at both black and white business. This small county town was rich in coal, and there were dozens of coal mines of all sizes. Anyone with some power would open a coal mine to make money.

Lu Chen smiled and said, "I'll come back after I get it done."

"Go ahead, stay home for a few more days, accompany your wife, take 5,000 yuan from the account, and buy your wife a gold ring. Women, you just need to coax them. I have experience as your brother."

"Thank you, Third Brother."

Lu Chen hung up the phone with a serious expression. Although his third brother was generous, he was short-sighted and lawless. He would not work with the third brother for long. The reason why he agreed to come and watch the place was that he owed the third brother a favor, but he only agreed to see Xia Tian.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Obviously, the third brother didn't want to let the person go, so he gave the money so readily, but Lu Chen felt comfortable taking it. He had helped to deal with a lot of troubles these days, and this was what he deserved.

After counting out five thousand yuan from the drawer, Lu Chen gave some instructions to his two brothers and rode his motorcycle home.

When passing by a gold shop, he hesitated and stopped the car.

Jiang Hanyan had already gotten up, changed the bed sheets, and hid the cotton bag in the utility room so that Lu Chen wouldn't see it. Fortunately, her body was already sick, so she should be able to get away with it.

There was the rumbling sound of a motorcycle at the door, and Jiang Hanyan's heart skipped a beat, and she felt a little nervous.

Doudou ran out happily, opened his arms towards Lu Chen, and smiled with his eyes curved.

"Give!"

Lu Chen handed the little guy a string of candied haws, and then took the windmill from the armrest of the car, which he bought on the road. Doudou held the windmill in one hand and the candied haws in the other, and ran back to the house like a little top, wanting to show off to Jiang Hanyan.

"I don't eat it, Doudou does. The windmill is so pretty!"

Jiang Hanyan refused the food that Doudou offered. She didn't like the candied haws because they were sour, but the windmill was interesting. She couldn't help but puffed up her cheeks and blew on it, and the windmill started to swirl.

Doudou's eyes widened as if he had discovered a new world. He puffed up his cheeks and blew the windmill, creating an illusion.

“That’s amazing!”

Jiang Hanyan gave a thumbs up and praised generously. Doudou smiled silently and blew even harder, not even caring about eating the candied haws.

When Lu Chen entered the room, he saw such a friendly and harmonious scene. He was stunned. He raised his foot and stopped on the threshold, hesitating whether to go in or not.

Is there something wrong with Jiang Hanyan's brain?
