Wait for someone to leave.
Jiang Ning and Liu Xiangmei were left in the house again.
Liu Xiangmei cleared the dining table and rolled up her sleeves to wash the dishes.
After Da Ya and Er Ya had their stomachs full, they returned to the front room to play, and their clear laughter could be heard from time to time.
Liu Xiangmei has been touched a lot these days.
While I was moved, I was also a little troubled.
She hesitated again and again, but couldn't help but ask Jiang Ning.
"Sister Ning, you said Lao Chen... what if Lao Chen really divorces me?"
Although Liu Xiangmei said she wanted to divorce and separate, she actually wanted to force Chen Wenbin.
Their relationship as husband and wife had never broken down to this bottom.
Moreover, in this era, there are few job opportunities for women, and it is even more difficult for someone like her with two children.
Divorce is a dead end.
On the first night, Chen Wenbin also said that divorce was absolutely impossible.
But the man didn't sleep all night.
When I got up the next day, I didn't know why I changed my mind and agreed to the divorce.
Liu Xiangmei didn't figure out what was going on at that time.
Although the situation has been improving these days, she is worried in her heart.
Jiang Ning stood aside and glanced at Liu Xiangmei's frowning and troubled look.
She smiled and asked, "What's wrong? You don't want to divorce Camp Commander Chen?"
There was a hint of teasing in his bright eyes.
Liu Xiangmei pursed her lips and lowered her head.
A woman who has been tempered by years to be thick-skinned rarely shows a trace of shyness at this time.
She did not worry about the future, nor did she think about what would happen to her child without a father.
The most direct reaction was her relationship with Chen Wenbin.
Liu Xiangmei struggled for a while and finally spoke.
"I don't want to get divorced... I said this just to scare him. Sister Ning, don't make fun of me. When Lao Chen and I got married, we agreed that we would stay together forever. He told me this. , I just foolishly believe it. I really believe it.”
Not only did I believe it then, but I believe it now as well.
If I didn't really believe it, how could I have endured so many years of hardship.
This is also where Liu Xiangmei’s resilience lies.
After Jiang Ning heard this, his heart felt soft and warm.
"Sister Xiangmei, if Camp Commander Chen really wants to divorce, what should be the first thing to do?"
"What... should I file a report and apply...?"
Liu Xiangmei stopped washing the dishes and turned to look at Jiang Ning.
Jiang Ning nodded.
"You're right, it's a report. So if Battalion Commander Chen writes a report, who will he hand it to?"
"Of course it's Captain Qin and Instructor Liang."
Liu Xiangmei blurted out without thinking.
Think about this.
Her eyes suddenly lit up.
"You mean... you mean..."
"I asked Jiu Lie, but Battalion Commander Chen didn't submit the divorce report at all. Can you feel relieved now?"
After hearing Jiang Ning's words, the smile on Liu Xiangmei's face was as bright as the peach blossoms in spring.
Chen Wenbin talked about the divorce so conclusively that he even separated from Liu Xiangmei directly.
However, the divorce report has not been submitted for a long time.
Can't you see what he means?
"Sister Xiangmei, I told Jiu Lie that if it is handed over, it will be returned directly without your consent."
With Jiang Ning's addition again.
Liu Xiangmei felt completely relieved.
Seeing Liu Xiangmei's happy face, Jiang Ning had another good news to tell Liu Xiangmei.
"Sister Xiangmei, I think your hard days are coming to an end soon."
Liu Xiangmei was stunned at first, and then overjoyed.
she asked in disbelief.
"Sister Ning, you mean... that... that they are going back?"
As long as Aunt Chen and Myolie Chen leave, Liu Xiangmei can return to her original life.
Even better than before.
"Yes, this day is coming soon."
Jiang Ning nodded slightly, his eyes bright and firm.
Liu Xiangmei and Jiang Ning stared at each other, and their originally uneasy hearts calmed down unconsciously.
"Sister Ning, if you say it's soon, it must be soon! I'm just waiting for that day!"
…
That day came earlier than Jiang Ning expected.
Only ten more days passed.
Aunt Chen and Myolie Chen left in despair.
The person who played a key role in this was not Chen Wenbin or Liu Xiangmei.
On the contrary, there is the one who has never appeared on the stage from beginning to end and only lives in everyone's mouth - Chen Wenbin's younger brother, Chen Wenwu.
It has been almost 2 months since Aunt Chen and Myolie Chen left home.
After they arrived at the military camp, Liu Xiangmei stopped sending money to Chen Wenwu.
Then the divorce happened later, which made it even more impossible.
Although Aunt Chen had some money in her hand.
But she was an illiterate old lady who didn't even know how to write a letter and remit money after going to the post office.
Based on everything Aunt Chen showed, Jiang Ning thought with his toes and realized that Chen Wenwu was a greedy younger brother who was lazy and relied on Chen Wenbin for help.
This kind of family environment looks so familiar.
Isn't this just like the second Jiang family?
The whole family grabbed one person and sucked blood like crazy.
Jiang Ning's parents are just ordinary workers who have been weighed down by heavy burdens all their lives.
Even an outstanding man like Chen Wenbin cannot escape such a fate.
It was in the family of origin that Jiang Ning saw the crux of this family relationship.
The most critical person among them is Chen Wenwu.
Or the son born to Chen Wenwu.
After Aunt Chen left, Chen Wenwu was still crossing his legs, waiting for Aunt Chen to come back with more money.
As a result, there was no one to take care of the son at home, no one to cook the meals at home, and no one to even do the laundry and sweep the floor.
Chen Wenwu endured it for more than a month, but he couldn't wait any longer.
I wrote a thick letter.
Chen Wenbin was not at home, and Liu Xiangmei ignored Aunt Chen.
Aunt Chen asked Myolie Chen to read the letter.
But Myolie Chen said something.
"Mom, you said that girls don't need to study at all, but you didn't even let me study. How can I know so many words?"
This made Aunt Chen very angry.
There was really no choice but to ask Jiang Ning next door for help.
Therefore, Chen Wenwu's letter was read by Jiang Ning to Aunt Chen.
A large part of the content of the letter was about how miserable Chen Wenwu's life was. The family had no money for a long time and could not open the pot. He asked Aunt Chen why she still didn't remit the money.
Back and forth, just accusing and asking for money.
Jiang Ning suddenly looked nervous when he saw the end of the envelope.
"Ah..."
she exclaimed.
