Chapter 160 A child cannot live without a mother
Qian Huilan was sleeping soundly in bed when she was awakened by a loud knock on the door. She sat up and grabbed her hair in annoyance.
"Who?"
She looked at the windows and saw that they were still dark and it was not yet daybreak. She didn't know who had disturbed her sweet dream.
"Who are you talking about? Quickly pack your things and go back to Jiyun."
After Zhang Tong finished speaking, he continued to knock on the door. She was so angry that she had to get up, put on her clothes and shoes, ran to the door and opened it.
"Mom, didn't I say I wouldn't go back?"
Zeng Yiyi in the next room packed up her things and carried out large and small bags. They were all food that Lin Yizhi gave to Zhang Yiran, as well as some dried kelp and sea fish.
"Mom, we've packed everything and will wait for you in the carriage."
"Okay, go ahead."
Zhang Tong told Qian Huilan to pack up quickly, but she didn't move. "Mom, is Yili leaving? If he doesn't leave, I won't leave either!"
Zhang Tong was just about to use force to drag the man away when Su Tongpan popped his head out of the kitchen door holding a bowl of porridge and ate the minced cowpea and meat in the bowl.
"Qian Huilan, you beat your husband. I already know about this. Your husband has clearly told me that he wants a divorce. I have also drafted the divorce agreement. You just need to sign it."
Qian Huilan was stunned. After she came to her senses, she ran to Su Tongpan and knelt down and kowtowed to beg for mercy.
"Master Su, I am innocent! I was really drunk that night and I don't know what I did, really! I swear! I will never dare to do it again! Master Su, I am really innocent!"
Just as Su Tongpan was about to speak, he was interrupted by Fu's mother in the kitchen, "Master Su, do you want to eat this salted duck egg? If not, I'll help you eat it."
She turned around and hurried back to her seat, picking up the last salted duck egg.
"I want something to eat."
Zhao Yang, who was standing by, stepped forward and asked, "Do you need more salted duck eggs? I'll cook them right away."
Fu Linggang scooped up the second bowl of porridge, "I want some too, give me two more."
Du Mingrui saw Fu Ling next to him speaking, and said a little embarrassedly: "Please cook one for me too."
"Then I'll have one too..."
"I also…"
Zhao Yang counted the number of people, took a plate to the jar, took ten out, took them to the stove, washed them, and then put them in the pot to cook.
Qian Huilan, who was still kneeling at the door, saw that everyone in the room ignored her. The frustration she had been feeling for the past two days reached its peak. She stood up and ran to the warm kang room and banged on the door.
"Zhang Yili! Get out here! I won't sign! Now that your family has a high-ranking official, you are so eager to get rid of me! You wish! Open the door!"
Zhang Lianyu in the room hurriedly covered Qian Tiantian's ears with his hands while Zhang Yili wiped her tears silently behind their back.
He was woken up by his father last night and explained the situation, but he couldn't make up his mind at this time. His father asked him to think about it for a night. After staying up all night looking at his child sleeping in the quilt, he finally made up his mind to divorce.
Lin Jiaojiao was woken up. She was still dizzy from drinking too much yesterday. She wanted to ignore the noise outside, but the noise got louder and louder. She opened her eyes in annoyance.
Fu Qi had woken up a long time ago and lay on her arm, not wanting to get up. It was really nice to be able to hold her and sleep again.
She sat up and noticed that the sky outside the window was slightly blue. She tried hard to control her temper and put on her coat.
"It's still early, you can sleep for a while. I'll go see what's going on outside."
Fu Qi also stood up, "No, everyone should be up now, and we still have to serve tea to Dad and Big Brother."
Although she wanted to say that these rules were not followed in her family, she couldn't bear to spoil his fun when she saw how positive he was.
"Okay, take your time packing. I'll go take a look outside first."
"Well, my wife..."
This was the first time he called her like that, and his voice had a slight tremor.
Her bad temper when she woke up immediately disappeared. She smiled and walked over to him, ruffled his hair, then walked out of the house.
Tongfu and Zhao Xiaotong were already waiting outside the door. When Zhao Xiaotong saw the door open, he hurried to the kitchen to get hot water. After greeting, Tongfu went into the house to help Fu Qi get dressed and wash up.
Lin Jiaojiao came to the door of the main hall. It was still a little cold, so she wrapped her cotton jacket tightly around her and walked up to Qian Huilan who was still cursing.
Qian Huilan held a knife and threatened to commit suicide but refused to leave. Zhang Tong and Lin Dadan were reluctant to go forward and carry her away by force. The men and children were all staying in the kitchen and did not come to join in the fun.
Lin's father and Lin Yiyan were also in the kitchen greeting people. Fu Ling and Du Mingrui stood aside with bowls in their hands, watching. Although both of them wanted to beat her up, this was Lin Jiaojiao's second uncle's family affair, so they couldn't interfere.
"Sister-in-law, you finally got up."
When Qian Huilan saw Lin Jiaojiao coming, she didn't dare to shout and felt a little discouraged. Then she cried towards the warm kang room.
"Yili, how can you be so cruel? Tiantian is still so young, do you want him to be without a mother? I already know I was wrong, please forgive me, a child cannot be without a mother..."
Lin Jiaojiao was still dizzy from being woken up by the noise, and when she saw the man being so shameless, she started to fire back.
"Qian Huilan, stop crying. You want to stay at my house for the New Year and not leave? Don't be so shameless. Hurry up and pack your things and get out of here! It's really unlucky to be woken up by you so early in the morning. Hurry up and die. If you die early, I will let people clean the yard. If you don't die, get out of here quickly, or I won't let anyone send you in a carriage. You can just walk back by yourself."
The guards left in the women's dormitory by Su Tongpan also rushed over. Apparently, Qian Huilan was frightened by the two guards wearing armor and carrying knives, so much that she collapsed to the ground and was carried out by them.
Judge Su looked at Lin Jiaojiao standing on the steps excitedly. He wanted to go forward but was beaten to the punch by two people standing beside him.
"Sister-in-law, your sister-in-law is not a good person. She thought she was very brave. Lord Su was here and she was also shouting, but she became cowardly when she saw someone holding a knife."
"What sister-in-law is Master Fu? Once they sign and put their fingerprints on the document, they are no longer our Sister Lin's sister-in-law."
"That's right. Fortunately, Lady Su didn't leave. We have the divorce agreement and seal she drafted. We can just go to the government office and report it."
Lin Jiaojiao listened to the two people talking back and forth, and gradually realized that Zhang Yili actually agreed to divorce. She had wanted to bring up this matter that night, but this was someone else's marriage, and her second uncle and the others had not said anything yet, so it was not convenient for her, who was of a different generation, to bring it up.
Moreover, divorce is a huge matter for the man, but I didn’t expect that her second uncle’s family thought so clearly.
She walked up to the man with the fiery gaze and bowed, saying, "Thank you, Lord Su, for your help. Without you, this stubborn plaster wouldn't have been solved so easily."
She had some guesses as to why the person in front of her didn't leave, but since she was not the real original owner, she really couldn't resonate with her and have a touching family recognition scene.
Su Tongpan suppressed her inner emotions, although she really wanted to hold her hand and tell her that she had not abandoned her, and that she was in pain from losing her husband and daughter over the years and missed them.
"It's just a small favor. Can I talk to you later?"
