Transformed into an abused child bride, breaking off the marriage and getting a divorce is so cool

Ning Zhengqing stepped forward and spoke, "I'm sorry to have embarrassed you all. This is truly a misfortune for our family. My wife attacked little children over trivial matters and nearly suffocated my eldest brother's newborn daughter, Pan Di. Then she violently assaulted me and my mother. It just so happens that the village head and Doctor Li are here today, so everyone should bear witness. First, Jiang has been childless for so many years. Second, she assaulted her mother-in-law and disobeyed her parents. Therefore, I am issuing a letter of divorce today and will have nothing to do with Jiang from now on."

Jiang Yutong didn't say anything when he heard this. Instead, he turned and went into the house. Everyone looked at each other.

Soon Jiang Yutong came out and spat at Ning Zhengqing.

"My fellow villagers, I, Jiang Yutong, am wronged. I have no children because my mother-in-law is afraid that I will affect my husband's studies. For so many years, my husband has slept with my mother-in-law."

Everyone was shocked. It would be hilarious if anyone knew about the adult son sleeping with his mother.

Ning Zhengqing and Ning Yao blushed. "You're talking nonsense, Jiang Yutong, you bitch! I really misjudged you."

After saying that, Ning Yao wanted to rush forward and hit her again.

The village head shouted angrily, "Enough!"

Ning Yao stopped her actions in disappointment.

Seeing that everyone had quieted down, Jiang Yutong took out the paper in his hand and handed it to Doctor Li, "Doctor Li, please help me read it to everyone."

When Ning Zhengqing saw Jiang Yutong take out the letter paper, he panicked and subconsciously wanted to take it back.

Jiang Yutong would never let him succeed, so she moved sideways to block Ning Zhengqing's action.

Doctor Li read aloud, "Ninglang, I think of you day and night. I have told my parents about my feelings. I hope you will come to propose marriage soon. Xiyun."

Everyone started talking loudly. "I didn't expect Ning Zhengqing to abandon his wife right after passing the imperial examination. Yutong is really pitiful."

"That's normal. If I were you, I would choose a better one."

"Bullshit, that was you, not me. Everyone has witnessed how much Jiang Yutong has contributed to the Ning family over the years. This is simply an insult to scholars."

There was so much noise and discussion that Ning Zhengqing's face kept changing. He didn't know how Jiang Yutong got the letter. It was all because of his carelessness. He thought Jiang Yutong couldn't read, so he let his guard down.

Then Jiang Yutong took out another letter, and Doctor Li continued to read, "Xiu Mei, I have lost my appetite for you too. I am thinking of divorcing my wife. I have no feelings for her. Wait for me."

Hearing this, Jiang Yutong shed tears. "Everyone heard it. This was all planned by Ning Zhengqing and Yao. I worked hard and devotedly for so many years, and all I got was a divorce letter. My mother-in-law, Yao, usually beats or scolds me and my sister-in-law."

Having said that, Jiang Yutong lifted up his sleeves, which were covered with scars, and then exposed his neck. A red mark was clearly visible, which was obviously caused by being pinched. Everyone was shocked.

"I didn't expect Ning Yaoshi to be so cruel in private."

"It's really pitiful. There are so many wounds on his arms alone. I don't know how serious the injuries in other places are."

Ning Yao was not happy with it. "She fell down by herself."

A woman in the crowd said, "You must be kidding, how could he fall like this?"

"Yes, yes."

Jiang Yutong continued, "We've been doing all the housework for these years. I embroidered every day to support his studies, but I never expected this would be the outcome. I ask the village head to seek justice for me and clear my name."

Tao Lizheng had originally wanted to give Ning Zhengqing some face, but now, seeing the letter and the injuries on Jiang Yutong's body, he couldn't take sides anymore. Everyone inside and outside was watching. He cleared his throat and said, "Ning Yaoshi, do you have anything else to say?"

Ning Yao had never been so humiliated before. Just as she was about to start a fight, Ning Zhengqing stopped her and said, "We have nothing to say. I will write the divorce papers right away."

Jiang Yutong breathed a sigh of relief for some reason.

Ning Yao stared at Jiang Yutong fiercely, but she swallowed her anger for the time being. She wanted to see how a weak woman like Jiang Yutong could survive in this chaotic world after she left the Ning family.

Doctor Li, who had been silent the whole time, finally spoke up. "Jiang girl, have you thought carefully about what to do as a divorced woman in this chaotic world?"

Doctor Li has seen many people being like ants in troubled times. Jiang Yutong has no one to rely on from her mother's family and has no one to rely on in the world. How can she survive?

Jiang Yutong knew that Doctor Li was doing this for her own good, so she bowed to him and said, "Thank you, Uncle Li, for considering me. But this Ning family is like a den of wolves. If I don't leave, I'll die sooner or later."

Then he said to the village head: "I only ask that you allow me to settle down in Shangyuan Village and find a place to settle down and make a living."

The village head saw that Jiang Yutong sounded pitiful and said, "Since you have married into Shangyuan Village, you are a member of Shangyuan Village, but..."

What the village head didn't say was that Jiang Yutong had no land or house in Shangyuan Village, so how could he survive?

Jiang Yutong had thought of this long ago. "Headmaster, there's a dilapidated house at the end of the village. I hope you can lend it to me temporarily. When I have some spare money, I'll build another one."

The village head thought of the house at the end of the village and asked, "Are you sure?"

Everyone was a little surprised when they heard that Jiang Yutong was going to live at the end of the village, "That house is haunted."

Jiang Yutong learned from the original owner's memory that the house at the end of the village used to be the house of a wealthy family. Because they committed a crime, the entire family was executed, and the house has been vacant since then. Every time the villagers passed by this place, they could hear the crying sounds, and no one dared to go in since then.

Jiang Yutong said helplessly, "People in this world are scarier than ghosts. I'm alone now, there's nothing to be afraid of."

The village head couldn't help but sigh, "Okay, if you have anything, come to me..."

Soon, Ning Zhengqing wrote a divorce agreement and waited for both parties to sign and seal it, and the marriage would become invalid.

Jiang Yutong held the divorce papers and bowed to everyone, "Thank you everyone."

Jiang Yutong was about to enter the Ning family to retrieve her belongings, but Ning Yao had already thrown her clothes out and said, "Take your things and get out."

Jiang Yutong looked at the clothes scattered on the ground. Not a single piece was in good condition. They were all covered with patches. She thought for a moment, "Where is my bow?"

That was the only thing the original owner's brother gave her, and she had always treasured it.

Ning Yao turned back to her room, took out a bow and threw it out, "Take your broken things and get out of here."

Ning Yao was really ruthless and didn't even give an extra grain of rice.

But Jiang Yutong would never let the Ning family go.

"My fellow villagers, everyone has witnessed this. Over the past five years, I have earned a lot of money for the Ning family. Now that I'm getting divorced, the Ning family hasn't given me even a grain of rice, except for a few rags of clothing. They're trying to starve me to death."

Everyone couldn't stand it anymore when Ning Yao threw the things out. Jiang Yutong was a weak woman with no place to live, no money, and no food. Wasn't this just leaving her waiting to die?

Someone couldn't stand it any longer, "Yao, Yutong has earned a lot of money for your family by doing embroidery over the years. Now you have to at least give her some food and money to support herself."

When Ning Yao heard this, her eyes widened. "Jiang Yutong was bought by me. I was already conscientious enough not to ask her for the money. Now she has the nerve to ask me for money. She hasn't eaten or drunk anything for so many years. Isn't this all money? You can't ask for money."

Jiang Yutong held the divorce agreement, almost signing it. "Okay, then let me settle the accounts with you. You bought me for ten taels of silver. For the past five years, I've done all the housework. I've also done a lot of farm work, raising chickens, pigs, and ducks, which all sell for a good price. I also embroider every day, so I earn at least ten taels of silver every year. How much can I eat?"

When Ning Yao heard that she was going to divide her silver and rice, her heart was bleeding. She stiffened her neck and shouted, "Anyway, there is no silver and no rice."

Jiang Yutong looked at Ning Zhengqing with a half-smile and shook the divorce agreement in her hand, "Then I won't divorce you. It's so nice to be the scholar's wife. Other women can only be concubines if they want to marry me, and they have to call me sister."
