Reborn as an 80s-aged woman, her unfilial son begs for forgiveness on his knees.

Zhang Ju wiped away her tears, straightened her back, and addressed the neighbors who were watching, clearly saying each word: "I'm making this clear today, I'm definitely getting a divorce!"

Even if I, Zhang Ju, raise my two daughters by myself, I can work myself to death and still raise them. It's better than suffering this humiliation in your Li family!

As for my reputation, I have done nothing wrong and have no shame, so I am not afraid of what others will say!

On the contrary, it's your Li family that has done such a scandalous and immoral thing. I'd like to see how you'll ever be able to hold your heads high on this street again!

After saying that, she stopped looking at Li's mother, who was sprawled on the ground throwing a tantrum, pushed aside the neighbors blocking her way, and strode towards the street office. The soles of her shoes thumped on the bluestone pavement, as if hitting everyone's hearts.

The neighbors watched her resolute back as she walked away, and then looked at Li's mother lying on the ground crying. No one went to pull her up; only a few soft sighs drifted through the messy yard.

Zhang Ju went directly to the neighborhood office and submitted her divorce application.

She wants to seek justice for herself through government agencies.

As for that so-called home, she didn't want it anymore.

She demanded compensation from the Li family, and then rented a place to live with her child to avoid being accused by the Li family of taking advantage of them.

After hearing her account, the staff at the neighborhood office looked at each other in disbelief; none of them had expected such a thing to happen these days.

Sister Liu, who was in charge of receiving guests, sighed and followed Zhang Ju to the Li family's house.

As soon as she entered the door, Li's mother pointed at Zhang Ju and launched into another tirade of abuse: "You shameless jinx! You smashed my things, you have to pay me back!"

Li's mother was furious.

They've lost all face and dignity, and this wretched woman has smashed the house to pieces. Is she trying to turn the world upside down?

Even if she wants a divorce, she must compensate for the losses incurred by the family.

Zhang Ju spat on the ground.

Why can't I smash things?

Didn't you say we're family?

Why should I have to pay for the things I smashed?

Sister Liu frowned, stepped forward to block Zhang Ju, and said in a deep voice, "Aunt Li, don't rush to scold people."

I just called the police station to confirm that your son is not missing, but went south.

You have indeed made a mistake in this matter, and you have also let down Comrade Zhang Ju.

You parents are so foolish.

Comrade Li made a mistake, and instead of criticizing him, you helped cover it up. You even turned the tables and tried to shift the blame onto Comrade Zhang Ju. Is this acceptable?

Comrade Zhang Ju has borne children and cared for the elderly for your Li family over the years. She was deceived by your family, so it is only natural for her to smash things to vent her anger.

"But you, old comrade, are truly foolish to let your son make mistake after mistake."

Sister Liu is also a woman, and she can empathize with Zhang Rong very much.

If her husband dared to elope with someone else, and his family helped cover it up, she would tear the roof off the house and chop that scoundrel into pieces.

"Comrade Zhang has now filed for divorce, and our neighborhood office has accepted the case."

If you disagree, then take legal action. If it ends up in court, it's your Li family that will lose face.

Zhang Ju covered her face and cried again as the crowd pointed and whispered.

"Sister Liu, I know that it is a shameful thing to propose a divorce."

But what can we do?

My husband has another woman outside the marriage, and she even got him a child. How can I live with him?

Moreover, my in-laws knew that my husband had eloped with someone else, but they still scolded me for forcing him to cheat on me, calling me a barren hen, and saying that it was because I couldn't give birth to a son that I let Li Laoda find a woman outside.

But I only got sterilized in response to the national call. Do you expect me to risk my life just to have a son?

Did I say something wrong?

"You're a jinx! Giving birth to a daughter has ended the Li family line, and now you've even smashed up my house! And you still think you're right?"

Li's mother stood with her hands on her hips, spitting as she spoke.

"You want my eldest son to die without an heir, so it's your own fault that my son doesn't want you!"

"You shameless bastard want to divorce my son? You deserve a beating!"

Why do I want a divorce?

That's because if I don't get a divorce, my two daughters won't survive!

From childhood to adulthood, both children have either drowned or fallen and injured themselves. You just want both children to die so that you have one less burden and I can give birth to another son for your family.

But I just don't want to do as you wish.

Daughters are human beings too; they have the right to live!

"Well said!" someone in the crowd shouted, and a chorus of agreement followed.

"The outdated idea of ​​favoring sons over daughters should have been discarded long ago!"

"Exactly, what's wrong with a daughter? Daughters are also descendants!"

Li's mother, her face alternating between pale and flushed from the barrage of criticism, could only stomp her feet and shout at the top of her lungs, "What do you know? I'm doing this for the sake of our Li family line!"

But as soon as he said that, a young woman holding a child retorted: "Incense offerings, incense offerings, does your Li family have a throne to inherit?"

Comrade Zhang Ju gave birth to two daughters for your family. Aren't they both beautiful and healthy?

You, on the other hand, are always complaining and finding fault. If you ask me, you, as the mother-in-law, are the ones who don't know what's good for you!

Li's mother was so frightened that she dared not speak.

Return the throne?

If this had happened a few years earlier, those three words alone would have been enough to ruin their entire family!

After hearing this, Sister Liu quickly patted Zhang Ju's back to comfort her: "Don't worry or be sad. This wasn't your fault. I'll definitely help you get to the bottom of things today."

Seeing that even the neighborhood committee was siding with Zhang Ju, Li's father was so angry that his chest tightened. He slammed his hand on the edge of his wheelchair and said, "We do not agree to a divorce!"

"Fine, we'll agree, but if she wants to leave, she has to leave with nothing, and she can't take a single penny from the Li family!"

"Comrade Li, this is a new society now, and we don't follow the old ways."

Sister Liu slowly opened the notebook in her hand, her tone steady yet carrying an undeniable weight, "According to the provisions of the Marriage Law, if the relationship between the husband and wife has indeed broken down, a divorce should be granted."

Li Laoda has been living with another person and fathering children with them for a long time, which constitutes a serious fault. As the innocent party, Zhang Ju has the right to file for divorce and request the division of marital property according to law.

As for the claim of leaving with nothing, there is no such provision in the law.

If you continue to cause trouble like this, the neighborhood committee will have no choice but to report the situation to the court and let the court make a ruling.

Don't worry, Comrade Zhang Ju, no one will make you leave with nothing.

Once your husband is brought back, you can go to the Civil Affairs Bureau with him to complete the divorce procedures.

After hearing what Sister Liu said, Mr. and Mrs. Li turned pale.

They hadn't expected that the government would still follow such rules when making judgments, so they didn't dare to argue back. They could only sit in their chairs, panting with anger, unable to utter a single word.
