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

Zhang Wenying sorted it out and realized that the terms weren't actually fair.

Although the house was built by the Han family before the marriage, in principle, half of it should belong to the daughter.

But she didn't really want it. As long as she could get a divorce, she would give half of her savings and the furniture to her daughter. The yard she bought was missing a sewing machine, which saved her a lot of trouble.

As long as my daughter can get a divorce, none of these material possessions matter.

The important thing is that Xiaojuan can live with dignity from now on, without having to depend on anyone else.

She glanced at her daughter, who was standing beside her with her head down and tears streaming down her face. Seeing that her daughter didn't object, she nodded and said, "Okay, we'll do it your way. We'll go get the divorce papers first thing tomorrow morning. After the papers are done, we'll come back to get our things."

Having settled the matter, Zhang Wenying pulled Zhang Xiulan and walked out, ignoring the unpleasant expressions on the faces of the Han family mother and son.

Reaching the courtyard gate, Li Xiaojuan paused, glanced back at the courtyard where she had lived for several years, said nothing more, bit her lip, and followed Zhang Wenying.

The mother and daughter walked back to Zhang Wenying's courtyard in silence. Li Xiaojuan sat at the table, holding a cup of hot water, but she still couldn't stop crying. Zhang Wenying didn't try to comfort her, but just sat beside her. After she had cried enough, she said softly, "It's okay to cry it out. It's over now. From now on, we'll live a good life together. I can take care of you."

Li Xiaojuan wiped away her tears, sniffled, and nodded: "Mom, I know, thank you. I still have a job, I can earn money myself, and I won't be a burden to you."

"Silly child, what are you talking about being a burden?"

Zhang Wenying smiled and patted her hand. "Mom just bought a yard, right on the back street. Let's get the paperwork done tomorrow, then we'll tidy it up and you can move in. The yard has vegetable plots and is spacious, so you'll feel comfortable living there."

Li Xiaojuan was stunned when she heard this.

Her mother never cared about her and Xiaomei.

But now, not only did he stand up for her and get a divorce, but he also prepared a house for her. This change left her a little overwhelmed.

"Mom, when...when did you buy the yard?"

Li Xiaojuan's voice trembled, and her eyes reddened again.

"Where did you get the money?"

Zhang Wenying smiled and said casually, "What are you yelling about?"

To tell you the truth, I bought my job and also rented a small shop, planning to start a small business.

Don't worry, things will only get better for the three of us from now on.

"What? You...you sold your job..."

Li Xiaojuan was so shocked that she stood up abruptly, her voice trembling uncontrollably: "Mom, that's a formal job in a state-owned enterprise! So many people would kill for it, how can you just sell it like that!"

"Now that I don't have a secure job anymore, what if the business doesn't go well?"

Zhang Wenying pulled her to sit down again, poured her a cup of hot water, and slowly said, "I'm already so old. I've worked in the factory for so many years, I've had enough."

Besides, the policies have been relaxed now. Running a small business is no worse than working in a company and earning a fixed salary. I know what I'm doing, so don't worry about it.

Li Xiaojuan held the cup, her heart filled with both warmth and sorrow, and tears fell onto the table with a patter: "Mom, you did all this for me. If I hadn't insisted on a divorce, you wouldn't have thought of buying the shop, let alone selling your job..."

"What nonsense are you talking about? I bought the shop as an investment, and I sold my job because I wanted to change my lifestyle. It has nothing to do with you."

Zhang Wenying poked her forehead. "Get the divorce settled tomorrow, then take a good rest. Once you move to the new house, take your time to recover. You have a long life ahead of you. With Mom here, you don't have to be afraid of anything."

Li Xiaojuan sniffed, nodded vigorously, and held back her tears. All the grievances and coldness that had accumulated in her heart over the years melted away at this sudden warmth. For the first time in her life, she felt that having her mother's support was such a reassuring thing.

The divorce proceedings went extremely smoothly.

The Han family was afraid that Zhang Wenying, that scoundrel, would go and spread rumors about them.

Only the South Korean army was filled with resentment.

He stood at the entrance of the Civil Affairs Bureau, watching Li Xiaojuan get on the back of Zhang Wenying's bicycle without looking back, his heart filled with mixed emotions.

Why can't we just end up living such a good life?

Looking at the tidy and fully furnished yard in front of her, Li Xiaojuan couldn't help but tear up again.

She has been married to Han Jun for several years, but she doesn't even have her own house.

Originally, there was one, but Han Jun said that it was inconvenient for his sister-in-law to live in the same room with her two children and in-laws, so he gave their marital home to his widowed sister-in-law.

She and Han Jun moved into the main room separated by a curtain.

What kind of noise can a curtain block?

She could hear her in-laws coughing at night, her sister-in-law getting up in the middle of the night, and her child crying.

She didn't dare to make a sound even when turning over, for fear of hearing something from the other side of the curtain.

Now it's all good. I finally have a yard that truly belongs to me. When I close the door, it's my own private world.

She stood in the courtyard, sunlight streaming onto the blue brick ground, and for the first time felt that there was finally hope for the future.

Every brick and tile in this small courtyard is a testament to the strength and security provided by my mother.

The courtyard is fully equipped with pots, pans, and utensils, so you can move in and live there immediately.

That family were meticulous people; everything was kept tidy and orderly, and there wasn't a single cobweb on the roof beams.

"This courtyard is in your name, so you can live here in peace."

If you want to do that job, then do it for now; if you don't want to, then quit.

It was because Mom was incompetent that you suffered injustice before.

"From now on, you can do whatever you want without having to worry about anyone else." Zhang Wenying patted her shoulder and then went to the kitchen to make her something to eat.

Li Xiaojuan grabbed her mother's hand, her voice choked with emotion: "Mom, let me do it, you rest."

Also, why don't you and Xiaomei move in with me?

My mother paid for this yard; how can she monopolize such a nice place all by herself?

Zhang Wenying thought for a moment and said, "Then let Xiaomei move in with you, and Mom will stay over there."

It will just take a little effort on your part to take Xiaomei to school every day and pick her up in the evening.

Upon hearing this, Li Xiaojuan immediately agreed.

What kind of nonsense is this?

Her mother bought her such a nice yard so that she wouldn't be looked down upon by others, so it's only right that she take care of her younger sister.

The vegetables in this yard alone are enough to feed them for a long time.

When I have more free time, I'll raise a few more chickens, and the yard will be even more lively.

This is Li Wenhai's home at this time.

He Caifeng was so angry that she stomped her feet.

Her house has only three rooms.

She and Li Wenjun lived in one room, and her parents and children lived in the other.

There was another room, which her brothers sometimes stayed in.

But as soon as the old lady arrived, she took over that room, saying she wanted to stay there for a long time.

The old lady always wants to eat and drink well.

She also monopolized the TV in the house, watching it from morning till night with the volume blasting, spitting sunflower seed shells all over the floor.
