From Folly to Fortune:I Rewrite My Life After Rebirth!
Chapter 1258 - 1254: A Divorce Letter
"Stop spewing nonsense! I gave birth to the son, I raised him. Whether he wants me or not, I know better than you!" said Old Mrs. Mu, stubbornly.
Mr. Mu knew that it was useless to argue with the old woman in front of him!
"Fine, you refuse to accept reality. Let’s talk about something else. If Xiangxiang and Da Li get divorced and no one wants to marry her, how do you plan to arrange things for her?"
"How else can we arrange it? Xiangxiang is my daughter. Wherever I am, that’s where she’ll be. We don’t lack a meal to share with Xiangxiang!"
Old Mrs. Mu said this matter-of-factly!
Mr. Mu’s face turned red with anger!
"You’re full of crap! You say it so lightly, but what happens when you die, what will Xiangxiang do?" Mr. Mu asked.
"Isn’t there the eldest, the second, the third, the fourth, and Fifth? If worse comes to worst, there’s still our little Sixth. Though he’s not back yet, I feel like that kid is surely doing well, maybe he’s even a high-ranking official!
Not to mention, even if all the sons die, there are still grandchildren, daughters. Someone will take care of Xiangxiang, why worry!"
Old Mrs. Mu seemed calm, but Mr. Mu was almost infuriated to death!
He couldn’t understand how his wife could have such frightening thoughts!
Could his son, his grandson really all be like Xiangxiang? Impossible!
It was truly a joke, a joke!
"Would you dare say this to the people in the village? Would you dare tell Second Brother? Would they agree?"
"Why wouldn’t I dare? This is the truth! As for Second Brother, whether they agree or not, they must agree. I am their mother! Would they dare not listen to me? If they don’t, don’t blame me for ruining their ’good reputation’ everywhere!"
Old Mrs. Mu was determined to play thick-skinned!
Mr. Mu had no choice but to let her suffer the consequences!
"Since you have such plans, then separate, I just hope you won’t regret it!" Mr. Mu said this, and he seemed to shrink and become smaller.
Old Mrs. Mu was still happy, already thinking about what delicious food to make once their daughter returned!
Meanwhile, the Sun family was also arguing endlessly because of Mu Xiangxiang.
Sun Dali disagreed with divorcing his wife, but Mrs. Qin and Sun Dali’s father both felt they should divorce!
"Da Li, don’t be foolish, that girl doesn’t care about you. If she had any feelings for you, she wouldn’t have lied about me cursing her entire family!
The disaster she caused, you went to call her, only to have her mother splash urine on you. Any humane person wouldn’t do such a thing!"
Sun Dali’s mother, Mrs. Qin, said.
"Mother, no matter what you say, I won’t divorce Xiangxiang. I get along well with her!" Sun Dali insisted.
"You get along well, my foot! You blockhead, do you know what people outside say about you? They say you’re the one who took a basin of urine to the head, and lost all dignity! You hold onto that woman, living worse than a dog!"
But Sun Dali still wouldn’t let go.
"Mother, I don’t want to give up! I like Xiangxiang! She’s a good girl!"
"You... you..." Mrs. Qin was nearly driven mad with anger.
"You beast, do you know how hurtful your words are to your mother? Your mother only has you and your sister. Your sister married far away, and it’s rare to see her once a year.
From young, you were fatter than others, and the villagers laughed at your mother for giving birth to a monster!
Your mother endured hardships and ridicule, because she knew you weren’t a monster, you were just fatter than others!
Finally, we hoped for you to grow up and get married, but for your wife, you don’t even want your mother anymore!
Tell me, all these years, did your mom ever leave a bite less for you? Tell me, when that wretched woman entered your home, did I ever give her less to eat?
The work you do, it barely supports you, how does that wretched woman live? Your mother spent her first half of life frugally, and now, day after day through wind and rain.
In the whole village, who works more than your dad and mom? That girl from the Third Branch of the Mu Family says snails make money, but your dad and I spend all day in the field catching them.
The money we earn isn’t even enough for that wretched girl to have a meal! Do you really wish for us to die?"
Mrs. Qin’s tears poured out.
She truly lived a tough life, thinking that once her son married, she would be free.
But instead, there was even more work than before!
If she got sick, she dared not even buy medicine, for fear of spending money and not being able to support her daughter-in-law!
"Da Li, have pity on your father and mother, we’re really old now!" Sun Dali’s dad also began to plead. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂
The two elderly figures already hunched over, begging him in such a manner.
Sun Dali felt extremely sad!
What saddened him the most was Mu Xiangxiang’s attitude.
For so long, no matter what he said, Mu Xiangxiang refused to see him.
Even when he was kneeling, she wouldn’t meet him!
"Son, if you can’t make a decision, your father and I will move out today! This house, leave it to you and that girl. Whatever kind of life you live in the future, we won’t care!
But my father and I will save every penny we earn, for our own retirement!
No matter what kind of life you lead, we won’t help. You... don’t call us mother or father anymore!"
This was Mrs. Qin’s final move, if her son insisted on bringing Mu Xiangxiang back.
Then they wouldn’t recognize him as a son!
Better to part on good terms, just pretend he was never born!
Though painful, it’s better than living in sorrow for life!
Sun Dali felt heartbreaking pain, he recalled many days spent with Mu Xiangxiang.
He found that all memories with Mu Xiangxiang revolved around eating!
He gave her good food, she showed him a good face.
If he joked about not having food today, there would be no good outcome, probably even a fight!
Enough, enough!
This kind of marriage, let’s not have it!
"Mother, father, I... I’ve decided to divorce Xiangxiang, help me find someone who can write a divorce paper, I’ll... I’ll sign it!"
Sun Dali couldn’t recognize a single word, so the divorce paper naturally needed someone who could write!
Mrs. Qin heard this, quickly took out a paper from her pocket.
"This is the divorce paper, your aunt prepared it. She said, if you agree, then press your seal, if not, there’s nothing more we can do!"
Sun Dali glanced at the divorce paper, first leaving his handprint in the clay, then pressing a vivid red thumbprint onto the paper!
And with that, his relationship with Mu Xiangxiang was completely ended!
"Mother, I’ll personally deliver the divorce paper!"
He wished to see Mu Xiangxiang one last time, if... she agreed to return, perhaps he could still forgive her!
But Sun Dali was always too naive!
"Son, don’t go, that old woman is hard to deal with. What if she splashes on you again?"
"Mother, she won’t. This time, I’m delivering the divorce paper. If she treats me like that again, I’ll definitely report it to the authorities!"
With Sun Dali’s assurance, Mrs. Qin felt at ease!
Sun Dali’s father reminded him, "If things really don’t work out, call the village head, he will have to intervene in village matters!"
