Free Days in Siheyuan

Chapter 1149 Divorce Agreement
"Mom!" The girl lay in the old lady's arms, so moved that she was about to cry again.

"Don't cry, don't cry! Mom will take care of everything for you!"

"But...but what about my brothers and the others?" Thinking of her two brothers, the girl hesitated again.

"Hmph, don't worry about it. I will take care of it." The old lady's eyes were sharp, as if she had made some decision.

It turns out that pork cannot be attached to sheep. If it is not a biological child, then it is not a biological child.

Even though she was not their biological mother, she felt that she had done no less than their biological mother over the years and had given them everything they were supposed to. But now that something had happened, they couldn't even tolerate their only daughter.

If that's the case, why should I consider them anymore?

That night, facing the complaints of her two step-sons: "Mom, how can you say that about my wife? My wife is doing this for the good of our family..."

The second son: "That's right, mother. What my wife said is right. I am ashamed of what my sister did. You don't know what people are saying about our family now..."

The old lady stared at her two step-sons and asked, "Are you blaming me?"

The eldest son said, "Mom, we don't dare to do that, but you have to think about us. My wife has been married to me for so many years and has given birth to my children. How has she done anything wrong to our family? I just said something fair, but you scolded me."

The old lady looked at them coldly: "So what do you want to do?"

The second son's eyes sparkled. "Mom, we didn't think much of anything. We just want our little sister to get married early. We won't treat her badly and will give her the dowry that ordinary families should give her. But you know, the children in our family are not young anymore and they are spending money. Dad is in prison, so we really have no power..."

"..."

"..."

Seeing that the two stepsons were talking to each other, neither of them mentioned that the old man had already prepared dowries for his daughters before he went to prison.

It seemed as if he had already claimed those things as his own in his words.

Seeing that the two stepsons had even distributed their own wages, the old lady snorted coldly, and she had completely seen through the character of the two stepsons.

The old lady's eyes drooped, and where her two stepsons couldn't see, a gleam of viciousness flashed in her eyes.

Do they really think that this family is supported by their father, and that when their father is gone, they can be the masters of the family?

Since they are unkind, then don't blame her for being unjust.

The next morning, the old lady applied for a prison visit.

Seeing his old wife, the fallen director looked worried: "Did something happen at home?"

The old lady didn't say anything, but just looked at him calmly, as if she kept him in mind.

After a while, the old lady took out a piece of paper from her bag and handed it to the former director: "Sign it."

"What is this?" The former director was confused. After seeing the words written on the paper clearly, he was completely stunned.

He suddenly raised his head and looked at his wife in disbelief. After a long while, he managed to utter a sentence with difficulty: "Why?"

The old lady stretched out her hand and waved it in front of him: "Do you still remember how I looked when I first married you? Compare it with now, do you feel guilty?"

The former director looked at his wife's rough hands and fell silent.

"Then...then you can't just ask for a divorce like this. If we get divorced, what will happen to the children?" The old lady sneered, "Child, you have the nerve to talk to me about the children now. Over the years, I feel that I have done nothing to let you down. Although I am not their biological mother, I have done my best for the two children and have not neglected them at all.

After so many years, even if I had a dog, it would wag its tail in front of me.

But this is how they repay me. She is my only daughter. In order to climb up the social ladder, they actually want to marry my only daughter to someone older than you..."

Humph, those two little bastards were looking at her as if she didn't know about this.

Little did she know that she had a network of connections that those two little bastards would never be able to reach in their lifetime.

After hearing this, the former director was extremely excited: "Impossible, they are not that kind of people!"

The old lady didn't say anything, just watched him go crazy calmly.

"I won't sign, I won't sign! I won't divorce you. The children are still young. Can you give them another chance? I believe they will change, they will change..."

Seeing that it had come to this, the man was still pretending to be crazy and stupid, trying to get away with it. The old lady felt that it was pointless. Those two little beasts had touched her bottom line.

That was her only daughter, and no one could touch her.

He pushed the divorce agreement in front of the other party again. The old lady didn't say anything, just stared at him.

"I don't want a divorce, I don't want a divorce!" The former director was so excited that he tore up the divorce agreement.

He knew very well that his two sons were useless fools. They had no ability, but the key point was that the two sons were ambitious and thought that they were not appreciated for their talents. They tried every possible way to climb up the ladder.

Even if he didn't want to admit it, he knew very well that the family now depended entirely on his wife for support.

If his wife left too, his two sons without any supervision would surely cause great trouble.

The old lady didn't react at all, but took out another divorce agreement from her bag.

Seeing that he was still trying to tear it, the old lady looked at him steadily and said, "Go ahead, I still have some."

"Can we not get a divorce? I can definitely get out, and after I get out, I will make it up to you and your daughter."

The old lady glanced at him. It was the first time in all these years that she saw the person next to her clearly.

No, maybe he had already seen it clearly, but he just didn't want to admit that he had failed so badly.

"Sign it. As we've been married for so many years, I don't want to kill you. You should know my ability."

Just a few simple words made the former director feel as if he had been poured a basin of cold water in the middle of winter, and even his back was chilled.

His face turned pale, and his lips trembled: “No…you can’t do this!”

The old lady raised her lips slightly, looking at him with a half-smile: "No, whether I will do this or not depends on your choice."

Looking at the divorce agreement in front of him, the former director wished he could faint immediately so that he wouldn't have to face this situation.

As if she had sensed his thoughts, the old lady said calmly: "You can pretend to be unconscious, just like you did back then, and put everything aside, letting me face all the gossip alone, and finally being forced to marry you." As soon as these words came out, the former director's face looked as if he had seen a ghost.

"you you……"

"What do you mean by 'I'? Are you asking me when I found out? Or why I didn't tell you after I found out? Or how much I know?"
