Chapter 166 The Women of Daqi: Wanting to Be Like Miss Jian
Many people in the Great Qi Dynasty could understand why Ms. Hu Yuyan wanted a divorce back then at Fancheng Hospital.

After all, her mother-in-law wants to abandon her child, and her husband is siding with his mother. This is a very serious matter; if they don't divorce, the child might not even survive.

For the people of Daqi, who value offspring highly, divorce in such a situation is understandable.

But Jian Panpan is different. Isn't this a minor mistake without any fundamental principles? Isn't this making a mountain out of a molehill?

Divorce isn't that easy. A perfectly good family falls apart. They're taking marriage way too lightly.

However, some people don't think that way, especially young women who have just heard Jian Yunsang's words of advice to Jian Panpan and have begun to realize their own potential. They are more likely to accept Jian Yunsang's ideas.

Therefore, upon hearing the accusations from the men or older women, some people immediately retorted.

"What do you mean by 'meddling'? She's Panpan's family. If she's being bullied at her husband's family, when will her family step in if not now? Are you happy if your family pretends to be blind when you're being bullied?"

"If I had a sister like that, I'd be overjoyed."

“Exactly. I used to think that it was important to have a male member in the family so that I would have someone to support me when I got married. But look at Panpan’s brother now, he’s such a coward. It’s good enough that he doesn’t help bully her. What about sisters? Sisters can support you just the same.”

Some sisters, who were quite capable themselves, immediately exclaimed excitedly, "My sister is always called a shrew, people say she's too strong and not virtuous, but having a sister like that makes me feel especially safe. I want to be like my sister, like Miss Jian."

Jian Yunsang didn't take her aunt's words to heart at all. She already knew what kind of person she was. Did she really expect her to speak up for Panpan?

She simply looked at Jian Panpan and asked, "Have you thought it through?"

“I know very well.” Jian Panpan took a deep breath, looked at Fang Yingyao who had struggled to stand up, and said clearly and repeatedly, word by word, “I want a divorce.”

Fang Yingyao was so angry he laughed. His expression was gloomy. "Fine, you want a divorce? If you have the guts, then don't regret it. Let's get a divorce. I want to see where you can go after the divorce. Can you even go home? Do you even have a room in your house? Do you think your sister can support a parasite like you for the rest of her life?"

Jian Panpan bit her lip, her eyes red and swollen. "This is my business, it's none of your concern."

"You, you better not come back to beg me." After saying that, he glared fiercely at Jian Yunsang.

But after He Nanzhou took a step forward, he immediately looked away and even took a step back in fear.

He can't gain an advantage now that the other side has more people.

So Fang Yingyao covered his face and walked step by step out of the private room. When he reached the door, he pointed at them and said, "You just wait."

After saying that, he left quickly.

His aunt paused for a moment, then called his name twice, "Yingyao, Yingyao..."

The other person walked even faster.

Aunt pulled Uncle Jian's arm, "Say something!"

Uncle Jian looked at Jian Yunsang, then lowered his head again at her ambiguous smile. Aunt Jian then looked at Jian Hongyang, who touched his nose. He was even more afraid to face Jian Yunsang. He had just been scolded like a grandson and couldn't even lift his head. How could he dare to provoke her now?
The aunt was furious, but in truth, she didn't dare to confront Jian Yunsang directly; what she had just said was already her limit.

Therefore, she could only say to Jian Panpan, "Panpan, are you confused? What will you do after the divorce? There's no place for you to live at home, and you have no job and no money. Your father and I can't help you either. You've not even thought these things through before you talk about divorce. Is divorce so easy?"

Jian Panpan pursed her lips. She wanted to say that she had never had a room to herself in her family before. There were only three rooms in her family, and she had always shared a room with her grandmother since she was a child.

But she doesn't plan to go back to live there after the divorce. She can rent a place first, even a small or less nice room is fine. Once she finds a job and earns money, she'll be able to make ends meet.

Jian Yunsang looked up and said, "Who said she has nowhere to stay? She'll stay at my house, in my room. Dad, is that alright?"

Before Jian Zhengqing could speak, Qin Xiaoying nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, of course. Now that Yunlu has gone to high school and will be living at school, it's just your dad and me at home. If Panpan is willing to move in, I would be more than happy to, she'll have company."

The Jian family's house also has three bedrooms, although the rooms are relatively small.

Jian Yunsang's room has always been preserved. Even when she hasn't returned for a long time, the furniture inside is always covered with dust covers. Occasionally, when there are too many odds and ends to fit at home, they are indeed placed in that room, but they are always neatly and cleanly arranged, without being messy or blocking the way.

Jian Yunsang had said a long time ago that the room was quite large and could be used by Jian Yunlu, so there was no need to keep it there.

But this was Jian Zhengqing's insistence; he always felt he had wronged her over the years. Qin Xiaoying and Jian Yunlu didn't care, so the house was kept. Especially after Chaochao disappeared a couple of years ago, and rumors of her and He Nanzhou's marital discord frequently surfaced, Jian Zhengqing wanted her to come home to live, fearing that she would feel sad seeing the room gone and that she had no place in her family home.

Jian Yunsang put her arm around Jian Panpan's shoulder and said, "Did you hear that? You have a place to live. You're not alone. You have family. You have an older sister, an uncle and aunt, and your younger sister Yunlu. Do you understand?"

The way you're saying that makes it sound like your own parents and siblings are all outsiders.

Aunt Jian was furious. She stomped her foot and said, "We can't eat today. I'm already full of anger on my birthday. Let's go home."

She left as soon as she finished speaking, and Uncle Jian hurriedly followed her out.

Jian Hongyang was taken aback. "Hey, wait for me."

The family of three just ran away like that. Grandma Jian was completely stunned. No, what about her? They just left her there?
Jian Panpan's tears fell in a steady stream as she cried and thanked Jian Yunsang and the others.

Jian Zhengqing waved his hand, "Why say such things? We're all family. Alright, wipe your tears and let's eat first. You must be hungry. Tell the waiter to bring the food, and we'll eat before we leave."

"Ah."

With no one causing trouble, everyone ate the meal in peace, and the atmosphere was noticeably warmer.

After finishing their meal, the group dispersed.

Jian Zhengqing and He Nanzhou went to get the car, while Jian Yunsang walked behind with Chaochao in her hand, just about to talk to Jian Panpan.

Qin Xiaoying walked at the back, supporting the slow-moving Grandma Jian. But after only two steps, Grandma Jian called out to Jian Panpan, "Come help me, I want to talk to you for a while."
