The next day after breakfast, Yan Zhenshen went to report to the village chief, but unexpectedly, Zhang Zhenglai said he would not sell it.

The village chief was not in a good mood after being tricked, and he didn't even touch the honey water that Zhang Zhenglai poured for him.

When Yan Zhenshen followed the village chief and left Zhang's house, he saw Zhang Erni walking out of the wing room, but he didn't take it too seriously.

Gu Pan's wife lives close to her parents' home and she goes back there whenever she has time. There's nothing unusual about that here.

Before he even walked out of the door, he heard Zhang Zhenglai talking to his wife: "If Gu Pan doesn't give us ten taels of silver, we won't let him take Er Ni back no matter what."

The voice was so loud that not only Yan Zhenshen but also the village chief could hear it clearly.

Yan Zhenshen was still wondering what was going on when he heard the village chief spit: "Do you really think your own daughter is such a precious thing?"

"What's going on here?"

Gu Pan got along well with Wang Wu, and he had helped him a lot, so they had become friends to some extent, so Yan Zhenshen just cared about him for a while.

Gu Pan's house was only a few doors away from the village chief's, so he heard about Zhang Erni being kicked out yesterday not long after.

Although the village chief is not a gossiper, the Gu family are all honest people and have never caused any trouble. Gu Pan will lend a hand whenever he is free, no matter who needs help.

He is the kind of young man that the village chief likes most.

But such a good man has an unsatisfied wife, and the villagers openly and secretly say that he is a coward.

In fact, the village chief also felt that Gu Pan was quite a coward. Although his wife was a capable person, she would not yell at him. They always discussed everything together, and if he strongly disagreed with something, it would be left unresolved.

As a man, he should always have the courage of a head of the family. How can he let a woman squat on his head and shit?

The village chief made chauvinistic speeches to Yan Zhenshen along the way.

Throughout the whole process, Yan Zhenshen just nodded, nodded, and nodded again.

After passing the village chief's house and walking a few doors forward, I saw that the door of Gu Pan's house was open. There was a big box in the yard, and Gu Pan was stuffing things into the box.

Yan Zhenshen called him at the door: "Gu Pan, what are you busy with?"

Gu Pan looked up and saw Yan Zhenshen forced a smile, but didn't tell the truth directly: "Er Ni has returned to her parents' home and plans to stay there for a while. I packed some things for her."

"I just came from Zhang Zhenglai's house." Yan Zhenshen didn't intend to pretend he didn't know, so he said, "The village chief said his family was selling the land, but when I went there they said they didn't want to sell it."

Gu Pan paused for a moment, knowing that Yan Zhenshen must have known about his family's affairs: "Not selling it anymore? Are you planning to let me pay for it?"

Yan Zhenshen nodded: "They said that if you don't give me ten taels of silver, you won't be allowed to bring the person back."

Gu Pan looked sad, but only for a moment, then raised his head and deliberately joked: "Why do I feel that you talk more today than usual?"

Over the years, Yan Zhenshen has never paid attention to anyone in the village except Wang Wu, let alone meddling in other people's affairs.

"Just a reminder." Yan Zhenshen also felt that he seemed to talk too much. It was a couple's business, and if he said these things, he would be unpopular with everyone.

"Then I'll go back first." Yan Zhenshen said and prepared to leave.

But before he could take a step, he saw Wang Wu running towards him in a hurry.

"Boss Yan, don't leave yet." Wang Wu held his knees and took two breaths before speaking again: "It's a good thing you're here. If I scold Gu Pan later, this guy will get angry. Please help me stop him."

Gu Pan shook his head helplessly. He knew exactly what Wang Wu wanted to say to him, so he said directly without him even saying anything: "I really plan to divorce you."

"Why?" Wang Wu pinched his waist and looked disapproving: "You spent a lot of money to marry him, and for more than a year, she has been eating and drinking at your Gu family's expense. She has to take all the good things in the house to her parents' home. You want a divorce just like that?"

"Otherwise, I can't divorce my wife."

Gu Pan felt that there was no need to go to that extent. After all, Zhang Erni did save him back then.

"I didn't ask you to divorce your wife." Wang Wu thought he knew Gu Pan quite well. This man had liked Zhang Erni for so many years, how could he let her go just like that? Besides, given his family's situation, he was afraid that without his wife, he would be single for the rest of his life.

"Just leave her alone for now and let her live at her parents' home." Wang Wu said confidently, "After a while, you won't have to go pick her up. The Zhang family will send her back to you."

Gu Pan smiled bitterly: "Come back and continue to make trouble. I can endure it, and I also want my parents to endure it with me."

He couldn't sleep last night, his mind was full of thoughts. He thought over and over again and felt that he shouldn't drag his parents and second brother into suffering just because of his love for her.

The best solution is divorce.

Wang Wu said, "How can you be so stupid? You don't know what playing hard to get means."

He pulled Yan Zhenshen closer and said in a low voice, "Don't want it when it's sent back to you. Just say your family can't afford this golden phoenix, and the Zhang family will naturally help you educate it well."

Gu Pan looked up at him, still a little confused, "Can this be changed just like that?"

"Whether Zhang Erni can change depends on your attitude." What Wang Wu despised most was Gu Pan's incompetence.

"Wait until they come to you and beg you twice, and then you can let Zhang Erni come back, but you have to set a correct attitude and let her know that if she continues to be the same as before, you will really not want her."

Gu Pan hesitated for a moment, fearing that he couldn't do it.

"Send the divorce papers first." Yan Zhenshen said, and then he glanced at the big box: "No need to send anything."

His words were too concise and Gu Pan didn't understand.

Wang Wu slapped his thigh and said, "Yes, you still need to send her a divorce letter to show your attitude, but you can't send her anything, because it will make it seem like you still have feelings for her."

Gu Pan: “…” What the hell is going on? This couple has to use tricks to get along.

But now, the worst that can happen is divorce. If Zhang Erni can really change...

Gu Pan shook his head and told himself not to have any expectations.

"Try it." Yan Zhenshen's tone was calm, as if he was talking about a trivial matter. However, it was more convincing than Wang Wu's noisy tone.

"Is it really feasible?" Gu Pan asked uncertainly.

"You can learn from me." Yan Zhenshen pointed at himself.

"What to learn?" Even Wang Wu couldn't understand what Yan Zhenshen meant.

Yan Zhenshen gestured on his face: "Facial paralysis."

Gu Pan: “…” Is this easy to learn?

Wang Wu: “…” Wow, I still need to learn how to have facial paralysis.

Yan Zhenshen pointed to his mouth again: "Silence."

Gu Pan: “…” He can do this.

Wang Wu: “…” This is so difficult.

Yan Zhenshen finally pointed at his eyes and deliberately put on a fierce look: "Indifferent."

"I may not be able to learn this?" Gu Pan asked weakly. After all, at this moment, Boss Yan's eyes were not only cold, but also made people feel their hair stand on end.

"That's not indifference on your part, you want to kill someone." Gu Pan didn't dare to say anything, but Wang Wu was not afraid.
