Married to the army by mistake, abstinent boss becomes addicted to pampering his wife

Chapter 191 The child must be born!
“Jasmine said that the house belongs to Xiao Lu’s work unit and there is no way for you to live there. Also, the Jiang family will not bear any of the debts you owe to Jiaming.”

Hearing this, Jiang Qing laughed sarcastically: "So you're so earnestly advising me not to get a divorce because you're afraid that if I do, I'll go back to my parents' home and become a burden to you?"

Li Hongying was stunned with anger. "What are you saying? Would I ever harm you?"

"You know perfectly well that I'm living a life worse than death in the Zhang family. If you really care about whether your daughter lives or dies, you should support me, understand me, and help me escape this misery!"

Li Hongying was so angry that tears streamed down her face.

She was really afraid of being dragged down, so she left her daughter with her husband's family back then and remarried. Maybe then she and Jiang Dahai would have had their own child.

Jiang Qing had no idea how much her words hurt Li Hongying. Instead, seeing Li Hongying's red eyes and silence, she thought that Jiang Qing had hit the nail on the head.

He couldn't help but scoff inwardly, thinking that even his own mother was no better than this.

"Mom, don't worry, I won't be a burden to you. I'll take care of my own accommodation, job, and debts. If you still consider me your daughter, please help me one last time."

Li Hongying couldn't hold back her tears any longer and cried out, "Xiao Qing, what exactly do you want? You and Jiaming are in love, and now you have a child. Can't you just live a peaceful life together?"

"As long as I'm Zhang's daughter-in-law, I'll never have a good life!"

……

Li Hongying carried her things out of the house and met Jin Yulan's gaze. She felt guilty and breathless.

"Sister-in-law, I...I'm taking Xiaoqing back to her parents' home..."

Jiang Qing followed, also carrying a bundle on her shoulder.

She didn't even glance at Jin Yulan, and walked straight towards the gate.

Jin Yulan slammed down her work and stopped her, "What are you doing? Trying to run away again?"

Jiang Qing retorted coldly, "I am not a slave of your Zhang family. Where I want to go is my freedom, and you have no right to interfere!"

Jin Yulan was so angry she was panting heavily: "You're my daughter-in-law, I'm your mother, you have to listen to what I say, go back now!"

"I want a divorce. I'm done being a daughter-in-law of the Zhang family!"

"You think you can just get a divorce like that? If you're going to divorce, you have to leave my grandson with you!"

"The baby is in my belly; I can give birth if I want, or I can choose not to!"

Jin Yulan was furious: "How dare you! If anything happens to my grandson, I'll haunt you even as a ghost!"

"Have you let me go? I will remember how you tormented me these past few days! I've come to this because of you, you wicked mother-in-law!"

After saying that, Jiang Qing pushed Jin Yulan aside and walked away.

Caught off guard, Jin Yulan was pushed and stumbled, only managing to stay upright thanks to Li Hongying's support.

"Stop right there! If you dare step out of the Zhang family's house today, don't ever come back!"

Seeing Jiang Qing walk out of the house without looking back, Jin Yulan hurriedly chased after her.

Li Hongying also picked up her bag and chased after them.

Jin Yulan grabbed Jiang Qing's arm. "You're not allowed to leave. Come back with me!"

"Let go! I said I want a divorce, I'm not going to live with Zhang Jiaming anymore!"

"Fine, let's get a divorce. Who cares about you? But you have to give birth to the child before you can leave!"

The argument between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law attracted many villagers to gather around and watch the spectacle.

"What's going on now?"

"Jiaming's wife wants a divorce."

"The Zhang family is really unlucky to have such a troublemaker. He causes trouble every other day and is about to tear their family apart."

……

"Tiesheng, you'd better go home and see what's going on! Your daughter-in-law and your wife are arguing!"

Upon hearing the villagers' words, Zhang Tiesheng threw down his hoe and turned to run home.

Anxious and with poor visibility, he fell into the ditch after running only a few steps.

The villagers working nearby burst into laughter. "What's there to laugh about!"

Zhang Jiaquan shouted in a deep voice and stepped forward to help Zhang Tiesheng up.

When the father and son returned, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were arguing fiercely, and the villagers who wanted to watch the drama surrounded the Zhang family three layers deep.

"Tiesheng is back!"

Someone shouted something.

Jin Yulan turned her head and saw her husband. She was so angry that she cursed loudly, "I told you not to let her go, you son of a bitch! Now look what's happened, she's trying to run away again and even wants to abort Jiaming's child! That vicious woman, she's going to ruin the Zhang family line!"

Hearing this, Zhang Tiesheng became somewhat anxious.

He walked up to Jiang Qing in a few quick steps. "Xiao Qing, you can't take it out on the child."

Jiang Qing turned her head away from Zhang Tiesheng's ugly face, afraid that she would feel guilty or soft-hearted.

“I’m not acting out of spite. Everyone in the village witnessed how your Zhang family beat, scolded, and abused me! I deserve it all. I married into this family without expecting anything in return, and this is how I ended up. Now, I’ve come to my senses. I’m definitely getting a divorce, and I won’t have the child.”

"you dare!"

Jin Yulan was so angry that she wanted to slap her, but Zhang Tiesheng stopped her.

He patiently persuaded Jiang Qing, "Xiao Qing, I know you're angry and that's just what you said in anger. If you want to go back to your parents' home, then go back and stay for a few days to clear your head. Come back when you're in a better mood, okay?"

With Zhang Tiesheng agreeing, Jiang Qing was able to leave smoothly.

Watching her receding figure, Jin Yulan punched Zhang Tiesheng several times in frustration. "You're just letting her go like this? What if she doesn't come back?"

Zhang Tiesheng said irritably, "Everyone has a heart. If you keep hitting and scolding her every day, even the best daughter-in-law will run away!"

"Is this my fault? What kind of daughter-in-law is like her? She ruined your perfectly good eyes, made the family so indebted, and now the whole family can't even find wives..."

"Alright, shut up. Aren't you afraid of being laughed at?"

"What do I have to be afraid of? She's already disgraced the Zhang family! Waaah..."

Seeing her crying so sadly, Zhang Tiesheng felt the same way.

It would be a lie to say that he had no resentment towards Jiang Qing, but his son had finally settled down and had a child, so he had to consider his son's feelings and protect his family.

……

Looking back at the Zhang family's house as they walked away, Li Hongying couldn't help but worry: "Where will you stay once you get to the city?"

"I have my own plans and I won't be a burden to you."

"I'm worried about you."

Jiang Qing sneered, "You just live your own life. You don't need to worry about my affairs anymore."

Before Li Hongying could speak, he added, "My things will be temporarily stored at the Jiang family's house."

Li Hongying remained silent.

The stepdaughter only said that her daughter could not move into the military family compound, and besides, her daughter didn't have many things and wouldn't take up much space.

Jiang Qing kept her word and left without even eating after putting down her luggage.

Li Hongying slipped her five yuan, and she didn't refuse.

……

Seeing Yang Dong returning towards the family quarters, Jiang Qing stepped forward to greet him: "Engineer Yang."

Yang Dong was somewhat surprised. Although he and Jiang Dahai worked at the same factory, their relationship was just so-so.

"Jiang Qing, are you going home to visit your family?"

Jiang Qing smiled and said, "I need to talk to you about something. Let's find somewhere else to talk."

Yang Dong hesitated for a moment, then agreed.
