After the vicious adoptive mother gave up, the scumbag children regretted it

Chapter 7 You can’t divorce your wife, you can only make peace with her

Doctor Li’s house is just the beginning, the tough battle ahead will still be at the Jiang family’s old house.

Except for Shen Nanzhi who was in a good mood, everyone in the Jiang family had a gloomy face, as if they were attending a funeral.

With the door closed and no outsiders around, the whole family couldn't help but pour out their anger on her, "Ms. Shen, you're going too far."

Shen Nanzhi: "Where did I go too far? Was it wrong of me to treat my mother-in-law? Didn't you want me to be filial?"

Jiang Chen said: "Then you can't upset your mother. What you did was indeed wrong. Apologize quickly."

Shen Nanzhi sneered and apologized to your mother.

"It seems that this family still can't accommodate me. It's not right for me to be filial. Then I'll just leave."

Just as he turned to leave, Jiang's father said, "Stop. Although Shen was a little rude, she meant well. Don't leave. Let's talk about the medical expenses."

Shen Nanzhi stopped and looked at Old Man Jiang deeply. It seems that old people are still wise. Old Man Jiang is not confused and knows the priorities.

The Jiang family suddenly realized and immediately said, "That's right, you have to pay this much money, otherwise don't expect us to forgive you."

Shen Nanzhi looked at the shameless faces of the whole family and finally gained some knowledge. "I? So my mother-in-law only gave birth to me, your husband? You were all blown here by the wind?"

The Jiang family's elder brothers all looked unhappy, but they were unable to refute.

Jiang Chen's face became even uglier. How did Shen become so shrewd?

Sister Jiang was not happy and said, "Ms. Shen, you are so lucky to be able to marry into our family. It is your duty to be filial to your mother-in-law. Asking you to take the money is giving you face. Please don't refuse it."

Shen Nanzhi was so angry that she laughed, "I've seen shameless people, but I've never seen people as shameless as you.

When I got married, it was my parents' arrangement and the matchmaker's words. My father saved Jiang Chen and gave me a dowry of 100 taels of silver. Your blue brick house was built with my dowry. It's only been two years, and you've forgotten everything?

You'd better keep your dignity like this, I can't afford it.

I, Shen Nanzhi, married into your family, not sold here to be worked like a slave or to be bullied by you.

If you are not satisfied, let's ask the village chief to judge. Should I be the only one to pay for this?"

Everyone in the Jiang family had dark faces. Shen Nanzhi kicked the small stool under his feet and broke it. "Jiang Chen was right today. He crossed the river and then destroyed the bridge. Now that you have crossed the river, if you want to destroy my bridge, you better be careful not to drown."

Jiang Chen's face turned red. As a scholar, he had to maintain his dignity. There were some things that could be done but not said. Shen Nanzhi happened to hear it, and no matter how thick-skinned he was, he couldn't stand it.

Shen Nanzhi snorted coldly, turned around and left, leaving the family looking at each other in bewilderment, not knowing what to do.

They were used to exploiting Shen Nanzhi, but she suddenly became smart, eloquent, and most importantly, strong. The broken stool made the Jiang family shudder. If it kicked them, wouldn't their bones be broken?

No matter what the Jiang family discussed, when Shen Nanzhi returned to his thatched house, the children had already returned, but they were all in a dishevel and looked somewhat pitiful.

"Mother, you are finally back. We are all hungry. When are we going to eat?"

Jiang Yu said, "I want to eat braised pork and white rice. Mom, please go and cook."

Shen Nanzhi: "..."

Can you order food?

"I still want to eat braised pork. Your father has to give me money. You can cook for yourself when you are hungry. There is rice in the kitchen. You can collect firewood yourself. Other children of this age do housework, so there is no reason why you should not do it."

Jiang Xun and Jiang Ke couldn't believe it. They actually had to cook for themselves?

"But we won't."

"You can learn if you don't know how to do it. Who is born with the ability? You will naturally learn it if you skip a few meals."

She went straight into the house, ran until she was sweating, took a shower, ate some delicious food, exercised some more, and put on a facial mask. Losing weight and becoming beautiful was the most important thing at the moment.

She doesn't judge people by their appearance, nor does she want to please anyone, but she doesn't want to see other people's strange looks, be laughed at, and affect her mood.

The children were dumbfounded. Are they really going to ignore them?

Jiang Ke had a gloomy face. He was the most thoughtful person. He told the eldest brother Jiang Xun: "Go to the old house to find father and come back. Sister, go to the next door to find Sister Lin. Speak pitifully to her and ask her to teach you how to cook."

“Why do I have to cook?”

"Because you are a girl, and every family has women who cook. A gentleman should stay away from the kitchen. My second brother is going to study, so how can he enter the kitchen?"

The two had no choice but to act separately.

Shen Nanzhi ate a diet meal and was eight-tenths full. She applied two of her best facial masks to barely hydrate her skin, and fed the animals in the space. Most of the day had passed.

When he came out, only half an hour had passed outside, just an hour. He opened the door and saw Lin Xueqing was actually in his house. Jiang Chen had also returned and was teaching the two boys to study.

Lin Xueqing was cooking in the kitchen and Jiang Yu was helping to light the fire. At first glance, they looked like a family.

"Cough cough..."

Shen Nanzhi coughed, startling them. Jiang Chen's face darkened, "Mrs. Shen, you are going too far. You don't even cook for the children. Is this what you mean by being a good stepmother?"

Lin Xueqing also walked out of the kitchen, bringing white rice porridge, fried wild vegetables, a dish of tofu, and a dish of wood ear mushrooms, all of which she brought from her own home.

"Yes, Sister Shen, the children are so young, how can you let them cook? What will the villagers say about you if you do this?"

Shen Nanzhi shrugged: "The children are mine. Do you need to take care of how I educate them? I let them become independent early so that they can take care of themselves in the future. This is for their own good. If anyone in the village thinks that I am not doing a good job, they can take them back to their home to take care of them.

"Miss Lin, do you want to be my husband's mistress? Are you so eager to enter my house and learn how to be my stepmother?"

Lin Xueqing's eyes turned red. "I helped out of good intentions. It's fine if Sister Shen doesn't appreciate it, but how can you slander my reputation? How can I live like this, wuwu..."

Shen Nanzhi was impatient, "Go back to your own home if you want to cry. Don't cry in my house. It's too unlucky!"

Jiang Chen couldn't help but said disappointedly, "Ms. Shen, you are unreasonable. Miss Lin is kind and well-intentioned, but you bully her. Do you want me to divorce you?"

Shen Nanzhi's eyes lit up. Could he not hold back so soon?

"You want to divorce me? That's impossible. I didn't do anything wrong. Why do you want to divorce me? We can only get a divorce. You have to return my dowry. I can't let your family take all the good things."

Divorcing your wife is a mistake. You will be hated and kicked out of the house by your in-laws. You will be pointed at and criticized and unable to hold your head up.

Divorce by peaceful consent means that both parties break up peacefully and the dowry is returned. From then on, the man and the woman have nothing to do with each other's marriage, which is a big difference.

Even if Shen Nanzhi left, it could only be a divorce. She didn't want to bear this stigma, lose her dowry, and benefit the Jiang family's vampires and ungrateful people.

Jiang Chen didn't expect her to be so strong, "You still want a divorce? Impossible!"
