1980s: I was reborn after being scumbag to death

Chapter 83 Divorce
At seven o'clock in the evening, a mule cart slowly passed by the dam in Yantang Village, but it did not attract any attention because it was too late.

At the Meng family, the old couple and their two children were having dinner.

It has been four days since the two daughters left home.

I heard that the road to town is open, but the snow is too thick and no one dares to go out.

But now that the road is open, the car should be able to go.

The whole family has been looking forward to the two sisters coming back soon all day.

Unfortunately, no one showed up until dark.

He Jinqiu sighed.

That day, when the eldest daughter left, she made it clear that she was going there to deliver clothes and quilts.

Although the eldest daughter explained everything very clearly, He Jinqiu still couldn't help but worry. She didn't know whether the things had been delivered or whether the trip would go smoothly.

There was already too much space here, and the little daughter was chasing after him. She left in a hurry and didn't say anything clearly. He Jinqiu felt like she was being scratched by a cat.

I don’t know if the two sisters met or if they got stuck on the road.

Seeing that his wife was worried, Meng Fude advised her that Gu Hansong was still with her, so she didn't have to be afraid.

He Jinqiu thought about it and it made sense. Gu Hansong hadn't come back in the past few days, so he thought of going with him.

Forget it, if something really happens, at least there is someone to take care of each other.

That's what they thought, but the Meng family has been having a very hard time these past few days.

Especially today, after hearing that the road was open, He Jinqiu has been paying attention to the situation outside, looking forward to the return of his two daughters.

I waited like this and still didn't see it until it was dark.

He Jinqiu bit into a two-grain pancake and said to her husband, "We can't wait any longer. We have to go to town tomorrow. If there's no special news, we'd better go look for someone there."

I'm delivering something, I'll be back tomorrow anyway.

Both daughters are very obedient and sensible. They know that their family is worried about them and will not stay outside for too long.

Besides, my youngest daughter is still studying, so it’s not good for her to fall behind in this class.

Meng Fude had no objection, but after thinking about it, he felt that there was no need to go there directly. It was too troublesome. What if they went there and then came back? It would be bad if they missed each other on the way.

"I'll go look for my father-in-law tomorrow morning. I can just call Jialin in town and ask him directly. It'll be more convenient and save trouble."

He Jinqiu thought about it and agreed.

Ordinary people cannot call the town office, but their in-laws have a way.

The two of them agreed to this, and at this moment, a light bell sound came from outside the courtyard gate.

He Jinqiu was stunned when he heard it, and immediately smiled and said, "I'm back, I'm back."

The bell sound came from Gu Hansong's mule cart. She had ridden it several times, so how could she not know it?

He Jinqiu quickly put down the bowl and went to open the door. When he looked out, it was indeed them.

"Oh my God, I've been worried sick for so many days. How is it? Is everything okay on the road? Come in quickly. You must be hungry. I'll go get it right away. Hey, Hansong, don't leave either. Come and have a simple meal at your aunt's house!"

Before the person even entered the door, He Jinqiu greeted him.

Gu Hansong said: "Aunt, no need, I'll go back first."

You've helped me so much, how can I leave without even having a meal?

He Jinqiu refused to give in and tried to persuade and pull them, but before she could finish her words, she finally realized that something was wrong with her two daughters.

The younger daughter is fine, she's just quiet and doesn't talk much.

The eldest daughter's shoulders were still shaking, as if something had happened.

He Jinqiu didn't bother to ask Gu Hansong to eat anymore. He walked over and looked at his eldest daughter, "Changli, what are you doing?" Meng Changli shook her head and went straight into the yard.

It was too dark and there was no light under the eaves, so the whole yard was dark.

He Jinqiu couldn't see her daughter's expression clearly, but her intuition told her that her daughter was crying!
What happened?
The eldest daughter ran away, so He Jinqiu asked the youngest daughter, "Where is your sister?"

Meng Shulan: "Mom, let's go back first."

He Jinqiu nodded and followed him in.

Meng Shulan breathed a sigh of relief, turned to Gu Hansong and said, "Thank you. Today's situation is not convenient. I will find you again tomorrow and we can talk again."

The expenses along the way must be counted towards him, and thanks cannot be expressed with mere words, but must be expressed in some practical way.

Gu Hansong nodded, "You are going to school tomorrow, right?"

Meng Shulan: “Yes.”

I have to go back to class after a few days of absence.

Gu Hansong: "I'm going to town tomorrow too, let's go together."

"it is good."

When Meng Shulan returned home, Meng Chang was sitting at the table wiping his tears.

From the time the incident happened this morning until she returned home, she was calm all the way. Although she was angry, she always held back her tears.

Meng Changli always thought that she could endure it. What's the big deal? She was just blind to find a rubbish man. She could just get a divorce.

But when she returned home, saw her mother's smiling face, and listened to her concern and nagging, she couldn't bear it anymore.

In the end, I still feel wronged and uncomfortable.

If possible, she really wanted to vent all the emotions in her heart and have a good cry.

But it was impossible. Both daughters looked at her, and the younger one's eyes were red, and she was about to cry with her.

The two little ones had no idea what was wrong with their mother. They just followed her instinctively. When their mother was sad, they were sad too.

Meng Changli was almost suffocating. She took a deep breath to hold back her tears, then squatted down and hugged her two daughters in her arms.

"Mom is fine. Mom is doing fine. Have Hui Na and Si Jia been listening to Grandma these days? Have they been throwing tantrums?"

The older one said in a baby voice, "Be good and don't lose your temper."

Meng Changli: "Okay, okay, here's my good daughter."

Seeing this, the others did not rush to ask and tacitly did not interrupt.

After a while, when Meng Changli calmed down, the family sat around the table and talked about what happened this morning.

What needs to be said must be said, and the whole family must gather together to discuss countermeasures.

They had no control over the case, so they put it aside for now. What came next was the divorce, the custody of their two daughters, and the possible troubles that might arise from the Huang family.

But after the two sisters finished telling these things, the old couple of the Meng family were still in a daze for a long time.

How could this be?
Didn’t you say you were transferred there for business? Do you want to separate and live separately afterwards?
How could this happen?
The old couple didn't know what to say for a moment, their minds were confused.

Meng Changli said, "Dad, Mom, if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it. But it doesn't matter if I don't believe it, this is how it is.

There's no other way, I have to deal with it head on. I can't just fool myself and pretend nothing happened."

Yes, the case has even been taken to the police station, how could it be fake?

He Jinqiu slowly regained his voice, "Chang Li, have you decided to divorce?"

"Correct."
