The wicked mother-in-law doesn't try to whitewash herself; she only abuses her awful children.

Chapter 348 Wanting a Divorce

Tong Huaqiong didn't bother to look at Tong Pandi's parents-in-law and husband, and led Tong Pandi's eldest daughter, Duo'er, to Tong Pandi's bedside.

"Auntie." Tong Pandi, holding her youngest daughter, saw Tong Huaqiong enter and called out weakly, tears streaming down her face.

Tong Huaqiong said, "Don't say anything, just take good care of yourself."

Hong brought over brown sugar water with eggs and chicken soup, and fed it to Tong Pandi.

"Auntie, thank you for saving my daughter's and my lives."

Tong Pandi ate four eggs and drank a large bowl of chicken soup in one go, which gave him strength. Looking at his youngest daughter, whom he had never seen before but who had drowned, he felt even more grateful to Tong Huaqiong.

"Mom, my little brother has become a little sister. Will Grandpa, Grandma, and Dad be unhappy?" Duo'er whispered from the side.

Duo'er really liked her little sister lying next to her mother.

Her rosy cheeks and clenched little hands were incredibly cute.

But my grandparents and father always hoped that my mother would have a younger brother.

Looking at her youngest daughter, whom she had lost and found again in her previous life, Tong Pandi said to Duo'er, "Duo'er, this is your sister. Regardless of whether they are happy or not, you and your sister are my lifeblood. I am happy to have you and your sister here."

Tong Huaqiong glanced at Tong Pandi in surprise.

Tong Dajiao's timid niece from her previous life is completely different from the one Tong Dajiao remembers.

The way he said those words doesn't seem like the style of families who are obsessed with having sons in this era.

Duo'er looked timidly at Tong Huaqiong.

She didn't know if what her mother said was right or wrong.

Tong Huaqiong said to Duo'er, "Your mother is right."

Similarly, Tong Pandi looked at Tong Huaqiong with surprise.

This aunt was completely different in her past life.

Although her aunt came to the Wu family in her previous life to vent her anger, she also expressed that the reason why her life was so miserable was because she had not given birth to a son, and advised her to hurry up and have a son to keep Wu Musheng by her side.

In this life, her aunt did not urge her to have a son.

Just as Tong Pandi was lost in thought, Tong Huaqiong said, "Pandi, your in-laws and Duo'er's father are very unhappy that you gave birth to two daughters. Your life was already difficult, and now it will be even more difficult."

Tong Huaqiong didn't want to call him Pandi at all; she felt those two words were too hot to pronounce.

It's here, it's finally here. Tong Pandi lay quietly, waiting for Tong Huaqiong to persuade her to have a son or something like that.

Seeing that Tong Pandi didn't respond, Tong Huaqiong continued, her tone completely detached from her son. She said, "Your life is unbearable. Whether you have a boy or a girl isn't something we women decide. If you can't have a son, is your life ruined?"

Tong Pandi was filled with a storm of emotions.

My aunt is right, she really didn't have a son in her past life.

In order to avoid being divorced, she desperately tried to please her parents-in-law and Wu Musheng, and took on all the chores for the Wu family.

Later, she was demoted to a concubine by Wu Musheng. Wu Musheng's new wife gave birth to two daughters but no sons.

The Wu family blamed her for not being able to have a son, saying she was a jinx and that the Wu family would be childless.

Even Wu Musheng's newlywed wife was humiliated because she could not bear a son.

She absolutely never wanted to repeat those days again.

Tong Pandi said in a low voice, "Aunt, don't laugh at me, but I don't want to spend another day in the Wu family."

Tong Huaqiong glanced at Tong Pandi.

This is Tong Pandi awakened.

She doesn't even need to put in the effort to brainwash them.

I just don't know to what extent they've awakened.

Tong Huaqiong said, "You can tell me whatever you're thinking. Even if I'm not a good aunt, I know how to distinguish between close and distant relatives. I will never side with the Wu family."

What kind of family would drown their granddaughter in their past life and then poison their daughter-in-law while she's giving birth? Tong Pandi, left with her two children, will only be exploited and left with nothing.

She hoped that Tong Pandi would divorce and leave the Wu family with her two daughters.

If Tong Pandi were to have this level of awakening, Tong Huaqiong would be happy to help her. Not to mention a life of luxury, she could easily support her two daughters by working at Peach Blossom Dessert Shop.

As her business as the village head grows bigger and bigger, and as Gu Jingzhe becomes a third-ranked scholar in the imperial examination, Tong Pandi's two daughters will also rise in status and find good husbands.

Of course, she couldn't say that; Tong Pandi had to say it herself.

Ultimately, people can only be responsible for their own choices.

Tong Pandi gritted her teeth and said, "Auntie, I want a divorce."

After speaking, he looked at Tong Huaqiong with a determined expression.

I don't know if my aunt will help me.

This was exactly what Tong Huaqiong wanted to hear. Tong Huaqiong nodded and said, "Okay, since you've made up your mind, let's get a divorce."

Tong Pandi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Auntie, I want to get a divorce today."

She didn't want to wait.

Seeing her youngest daughter's beautiful face, she dared not let her daughter be in any danger.

The way to eliminate the danger is to leave the samurai family.

Tong Huaqiong nodded: "Okay, whatever you say."

With tears in her eyes, Tong Pandi said, "Auntie, I want to take the two children with me. My family won't accept me. I've saved up some money. After the divorce, I'll rent a house in Yanguan Town to live in temporarily. After I finish my postpartum period, I'll do laundry and help out to support them."

Tong Pandi revealed her plan, which she had already thought of long ago.

"Please, Auntie, help me."

Tong Huaqiong pressed down on Tong Pandi and said, "We'll talk about these plans later. I'll take you to my house first. You need to finish your postpartum confinement."

Tong Huaqiong tucked Tong Pandi's blanket in. Perhaps this niece was afraid of being suspected of pestering Tong Huaqiong, so she spoke up about her plans first.

However, Tong Huaqiong understood Tong Pandi's thoughts. If it were her, she would also make thorough preparations before asking for help.

Hong and Cai, the midwife, listened to Tong Pandi and Tong Huaqiong's conversation about divorce, but neither of them expressed any opinion.

After all, this was a discussion between the aunt and niece, and outsiders had no right to interfere.

However, the two secretly agreed with Tong Pandi's decision to divorce. The Wu family was a family that dared to scheme against even pregnant women, so staying with them was like gambling with their lives.

Cai, the midwife, went from street to street delivering babies and was very familiar with the Heilongtan area of ​​Yanguan Town. As far as she knew, no woman had ever dared to initiate a divorce.

Divorced women face hardship; their families don't accept them, and outsiders gossip. Who would choose divorce if they couldn't make ends meet?

This daughter-in-law of the Wu family is no ordinary person.

"Since you're going, you should leave sooner rather than later. It's snowing outside, and the roads will be difficult to travel if you stay too long," suggested Cai the midwife.

"Alright, all your things are in this room. Pack up the things you can wear and carry, but don't take anything else," Tong Huaqiong said.

So Hong and Cai, the midwife, began to help pack the luggage and help Tong Pandi get dressed.

A commotion arose outside, and Wu Musheng's voice came through.

"Wife, let me in," Wu Musheng called from the doorway.

Tong Pandi shook her head and said, "I don't want to see him. Tell him to get lost."

In their previous life, Wu Ren and his wife drowned their youngest daughter. Not only did he not stop them, but he also kept it a secret from her. Because she couldn't bear a son, he demoted her to a concubine and led the way in humiliating her. In this life, he didn't even come to see her when she was struggling to give birth.

After the midwife Cai took the child out, he didn't even think to look at him.

What are you doing coming in at this time?
The reason he wants to come in and see her now is simply because he values ​​his aunt, the Lady of the Township.

Tong Pandi didn't even care about feeling heartbroken.

Because my heart has long been covered with a thick layer of ice.
