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

Aunt Zhang was truly her savior.

Zhang Ju thought to herself that although the rent of ten yuan a month was not cheap, the conditions of the apartment building were definitely better than those of the bungalow, and the two children would be more comfortable living there.

In particular, apartment buildings are safer, unlike bungalows where you have to worry about dampness and rats. They also have running water and toilets, and it's convenient for children to go to school.

Zhang Ju immediately followed Zhang Wenying to see the building. It had two bedrooms and a living room, bright windows, and clean walls.

Zhang Ju stood in the center of the living room, looking around. The anger that had been building up inside her for so long finally subsided a little.

She can now earn at least twenty yuan a day.

To be able to rent such a nice apartment for ten yuan is an absolute steal.

Zhang Ju immediately took out ten yuan from her pocket and stuffed it into Zhang Wenying's hand: "Auntie, this is the first month's rent for you. I will send you the rest before the fifth of each month."

Zhang Wenying didn't refuse, took the money and put it in her pocket, gave a few more instructions about the water and electricity, and then left.

Li Jianguo had asked for this house several times, but Zhang Wenying had never agreed. Now that it has been given to Zhang Ju, it can be considered that the house has been put to good use.

The noodle shop across the street has reopened.

The proprietress's surname is Ning, and her given name is Ning Hui.

Zhang Wenying learned this from her neighbor.

Ning Hui has changed a lot.

Previously, Zhang Wenying seemed rather unremarkable, with an odd nose and eyes, but now she has become somewhat sullen and speaks much less.

When Ning Hui saw Zhang Wenying, she didn't greet her, but she no longer glared at her like before. She just lowered her head and hurriedly wiped her own counter.

Zhang Wenying didn't bother her and just focused on her own business.

Aunt Liu, who sells tofu next door, took the opportunity while buying tofu to come over and whisper to Zhang Wenying: "Did you see that?"

That woman is divorced too.

Zhang Wenying paused in her rag, glanced at the person opposite her, but didn't reply.

When Aunt Liu saw that Zhang Wenying did not respond, she lowered her voice and added, "I heard that her husband absolutely refuses to divorce her."

But Ning Hui said that if he didn't get a divorce, she would make his affair with his sister-in-law known to everyone.

"Tsk tsk, you have no idea, that man was so scared he signed the papers that very day, and didn't even want the two children."

They even left the shop across the street to the woman.

"It is said that Boss Wang was so ashamed that he packed his bags overnight and went back to his hometown."

Zhang Wenying listened without any emotional fluctuation.

When Ning Hui insisted on splashing dirty water on herself, she was given a minor punishment and sent to jail for half a month.

Now that Ning Hui has fallen to such a state, Zhang Wenying doesn't feel happy at all; she just feels that life is unpredictable.

She wouldn't dwell on the past; she only hoped that Ning Hui would learn from her mistakes, manage the business well, and stop focusing on trivial matters.

As long as she doesn't bother him, he'll just treat her like she's invisible.

Zhang Ju was tidying up her new home, leaving her two children with the Li family.

Unexpectedly, when Li's mother saw that her two children were wearing new clothes and had newly bought red ribbons tied in their hair, she became furious.

"You two good-for-nothings, always running around outside with your bitch mother, not caring whether we live or die."

Why didn't you all just die out there? What are you doing back here?

Li's mother, cursing and swearing, picked up a broom from the corner of the wall and made a gesture as if to hit someone.

The two children huddled together in fear. The older one quickly shielded the younger one behind him, crying out, "Grandma, don't hit us! We'll go help you with the chores!"

Without a word, Li's mother swung the feather duster down on Li's face.

The two children cried together, but dared not hide, and just squatted on the ground with their heads in their hands to be beaten.

Li's mother hit them a few times, but seeing how pitifully they were crying, she still felt unsatisfied.

"Crying, crying, crying! Two jinxes, all they do is cry all day long."

Just like your jinxed mothers, none of them are easy to deal with!

She cursed, raising the broom in her hand again.

Just then, the courtyard gate creaked open.

When Zhang Ju saw her child being beaten, she flew into a rage, rushed into the yard, snatched the broom from Li's mother's hand, and slammed it to the ground.

"What right do you have to hit my child!"

She hasn't even divorced Li Laoda yet, and this old hag can't stand her child.

How can there be such a vicious person in the world!

Startled by her sudden outburst, Li's mother trembled, then collapsed to the ground, slapping her thigh and wailing, "Oh dear! My daughter-in-law hit me!"

Zhang Ju beat her mother-in-law in the street! "I can't live like this anymore! I can't take it anymore!"

Zhang Ju was so angry that she was trembling all over. She pointed at her and said, "Stop throwing a tantrum here. I've been in this family for so many years. When have you ever treated me like a human being?"

You hit my child again today! I'm not letting this go!

As she spoke, she went up to pull Li's mother away, saying, "Get up! Weren't you being quite arrogant just now?"

Keep hitting me! If you don't kill me and the child today, you're not a human being!

The neighbors, hearing the commotion, all gathered around. They all knew what kind of people the Li family was, and no one was willing to come up and persuade them. Instead, they pointed and gossiped about the Li family.

Seeing that no one was there to help her, Li's mother cried even louder, saying that Zhang Ju was disrespectful to her parents-in-law and had become arrogant after making money, daring to lay a hand on her mother-in-law.

Zhang Ju pulled the two children behind her, wiped the tears from their faces, and in front of all the neighbors, she recounted all the despicable things the Li family had done: from Li's eldest son getting pregnant by another woman, to her in-laws forcing her to earn money to support their family, even making her change her father-in-law's wet pants, to today when she was being forced to leave, her in-laws taking their anger out on the children and beating her. She recounted each and every one of these things, and the onlookers all cursed the Li family as scoundrels.

"Everyone, please be the judge: which father-in-law poops in his pants and expects his daughter-in-law to clean it up?"

If my father-in-law didn't have a son or a wife, I, Zhang Ju, would gladly work myself to death.

But Boss Li is alive and well, and he even keeps a mistress outside.

My mother-in-law is strong and healthy, and she is very powerful when she beats the children. Why does she insist that I do things that are not my responsibility?

The Li family took advantage of my vulnerability, treating me like a beast of burden and not even considering my children as human beings!

Zhang Ju became more and more emotional as she spoke, holding her two children, and tears streamed down her face.

Li's mother lay on the ground, her face flushed red, unable to utter a single word of rebuttal for a long time.

After Zhang Ju finished speaking, she pulled her two children and walked out: "From now on, the three of us, mother and son, are completely cut off from your Li family. Let's not bother each other anymore!"

Also, once Boss Li comes back, I'm definitely divorcing him!

After saying that, Zhang Ju went inside and packed a few old clothes and two quilts, then left with the two children without looking back.

The two children followed Zhang Ju timidly, looking back every few steps, but they didn't dare to stop.

The onlookers made way for Zhang Ju, shaking their heads and sighing as they looked at the Li family's courtyard. No one spoke again, and they gradually dispersed.

It's good that Zhang Ju left; otherwise, she would have been driven crazy by the Li family sooner or later.
