150 Gratitude
At night, Yuan Chunjiao and her family came to fetch Shi Xiaoze.
“Sister Chunjiao, the child just fell asleep!” The eldest sister-in-law walked out of the room. “He’s no longer feverish. However, when he fell asleep just now, he was crying. He must have been frightened! After you bring the child back, keep an eye on him. If the situation is serious, hurry up and go to the hospital for a checkup.”
Yuan Chunjiao nodded and said, “Okay, I understand. Thank you.”
“Is everything settled?” Grandma asked Yuan Chunjiao.
Yuan Chunjiao said, “Yes, I went for a divorce in the afternoon. He promised to let me take the child away. In order to prevent him from going back on his word, we took our marriage certificate and household register to the county’s Civil Affairs Bureau for a divorce.”
It was precisely because she had to go to the county city that she came back late. Her in-laws’ had continued to pester her.
“Yes, it’s good that you’re divorced.” Grandma nodded and said, “Shi Bangqing and the others are heartless. It’s annoying for you to continue staying.”
Mother Yuan said gratefully to her grandmother’s family, “Grandma, thank you so much for your family. If it wasn’t for your help, I don’t know how my Chunjiao would have been wronged. Their conscience has really been eaten by dogs. After serving them for so many years, they actually treated my Chunjiao so ruthlessly for a foreign woman.”
Grandma said, “We didn’t expect Liu Sanxiu and the others to treat Chun Jiao like this.”
If her Ming’er had not guessed that the woman’s slap was from her mother-in-law, who would have thought that it was from Old Lady Shi?
However, what was disappointing was that she did not hit her to protect her daughter-in-law. Instead, she did it to help that woman falsely accuse her daughter-in-law.
Mother Yuan said indignantly, “Hmph, that old couple is greedy for money. That woman knows how to coax people. She said that after marrying Shi Bangqing, not only will she serve them like my Chunjiao, but she will also give them money to spend every month.”
“That’s it?”
Eldest Sister-in-law and the rest could not believe it.
“Just like that, the old couple accepted her and even joined forces to frame Sister Chunjiao?”
“That woman said that her family despised Chun Jiao for being ugly and not knowing how to earn money. She was beautiful and knew how to earn money. If they married her, they would bask in her glory. So, those two old farts quickly accepted her.”
“F*ck!”
The young men immediately cursed.
This simply destroyed their worldview.
Yuan Chunjiao could not believe that her former in-laws were such money-grubbing people. However, when the woman told them the truth and she questioned them, they did not admit or deny it.
After serving them for so many years, she was well-acquainted with their temperament.
Hmph, they were admitting it because they felt guilty.
At that time, when Mother Yuan heard this, she almost jumped up and wanted to tear this old woman apart.
Grandma Shi didn’t know what to say.
She said, “Since you’ve already left that family, live a good life with Xiaoze in the future. As for those people, we’ll naturally see what their fates would be like in the future.”
“Yes, I know. Thank you,” Yuan Chunjiao said gratefully. “If it weren’t for you, I’m afraid I would have continued to be wronged. The divorce wouldn’t have gone so smoothly!”
It was even more likely that she would grit her teeth and not get a divorce. This was because she thought her in-laws were on her side.
However, her in-laws’ actions disappointed and disheartened her. That was why she had insisted on getting a divorce.
Li Jinmei suddenly thought of a serious problem.
She asked, “If your family helps us, will the old lady cause trouble for your family? Will this cause trouble for you?”
Grandma Shi said domineeringly, “She wouldn’t dare! Ha, even if she makes a fuss, I’m not afraid!”
Mother Yuan’s family was even more grateful. “Thank you so much.”
