After living a new life for my neighbor's grandmother, I traveled through the book again
Chapter 29 Proposing Divorce
Yang Jixia and Tong Jia, one stood outside the door, the other stood inside the door, one looked at the other in amazement, the other lowered his head, not knowing what to say.
The two of them stood like this for a while. Just when Tong Jia was worried that Yang Jixia would come into the room and Tao Junle might be exposed at any time, and wanted to find a reason to get Yang Ji away, Yang Jixia spoke.
He said, "Are you...hungry? I...I'll get you something to eat."
After saying that, he turned around and left quickly without waiting for Tong Jia to answer.
Seeing that the person had left, Tong Jia breathed a sigh of relief.
He quickly closed the door, used his mind to get some food from the RV, and brought it to the bed to eat with Tao Junle.
On the other side, Yang Jixia, who was fleeing in panic, ran all the way to the cafeteria before stopping.
Just as I let out a long sigh, someone patted my shoulder from behind.
He turned his head and saw that it was Political Commissar Guo who had talked to him on the slope today.
Political Commissar Guo asked, "Have you clarified your identity?"
Yang Jixia shook his head and then nodded.
"You asked, but didn't explain clearly?" Political Commissar Guo guessed.
"No, I haven't asked yet. But I have a rough idea of her identity." Yang Jixia explained.
Seeing Commissar Guo's disapproving look, he said, "When we were on the slope this afternoon, I wasn't really sure about her identity.
But just now…just now when I went to deliver something to her and saw her clean face, I was basically certain that she must be the woman I married.”
Political Commissar Guo nodded, then asked doubtfully, "Didn't you say you hadn't met him? How did you confirm that?"
Yang Jixia said: "Before we got engaged, I saw her photo."
"So what are you thinking now? This girl came here all by herself based on the few words you left behind, and she found you by such a coincidence. It must be fate sent by God.
But you and Comrade Xiao Yuan, aren't you...
Let’s not talk about this matter for now. Wait until you figure it out.
"Let's talk about you first... Oh, that's not right. If you don't establish this identity, how can I address her?" Political Commissar Guo said with some embarrassment.
Yang Jixia said: "Just call her Miss Rong."
"Okay, go talk to this Miss Rong about the matter. It's best to ask her indirectly how she got here.
We were both sent here by the organization after completing temporary tasks.
Otherwise, according to the original plan, one of us should assist Comrade Xiao Yuan in Tianjin, and the other should assist Comrade Zhou in Shanghai.
If she had stayed in the northwest for such a long time, you should have an idea of what a weak woman like her would have experienced.
If she came here suddenly, I would have to wonder if someone was targeting us.
Is it possible that Miss Rong is a spy sent by someone else?
Because of your irresponsibility, out of love and hatred, you are planning to join forces with the people over there to wipe us out?" Although the latter part was a joke, it was indeed the key point that Political Commissar Guo came to talk to Yang Jixia.
Hearing this, Yang Jixia also broke away from his depressed mood. After thinking carefully for a while, he said, "Don't worry, I will ask it clearly."
Political Commissar Guo patted him on the shoulder again and left the cafeteria.
Yang Jixia hurried to the cafeteria, got a bowl of stewed cabbage, put a pancake on it, and took it to the room where Tong Jia was resting.
When she heard the knock on the door again, Tong Jia immediately ended her written communication with Tao Junle, got out of bed, pulled the bed curtains, and then went to open the door.
When she saw what was in Yang Jixia's hand, she curled her lips.
When Yang Jixia saw this, his face immediately turned unhappy.
He said, "This is the condition here in the Northwest. If you can't stand it, go home right away. No one will pamper you or serve you out there!"
Tong Jia was so angry that she laughed when she heard this.
The desire to have a calm conversation disappeared in an instant, replaced by a rage.
She said, "Go home? Pamper me? Serve me?
Yang Jixia, calling you a bastard is an insult to the word bastard.
If it weren't for you, would I be here?
Go home? Don’t I want to go home? But which home should I go back to?
A daughter who is married off is like water poured out of her home. The three matchmakers and six betrothal invitations have been completed, and the bridal sedan has been carried away. What reason do I have to go back to my parents' home?
Divorced or widowed?
If he goes back for no apparent reason, the rest of my family will have no chance of survival. The neighbors around here can drown them with just a spit from them.
Not only them, your Yang family is not much better.
It is certainly a disgrace to us women that I couldn't keep my man on my wedding night.
But what you, Yang Jixia, did may not be something that can be put on the table, right?
On the wedding night, he knocked the bride unconscious, took the family finances, and ran away overnight.
If any of these were to be made public, would anyone still dare to marry their daughter to the Yang family?
For the sake of your Yang family's reputation, your Yang family elders and relatives knelt down and begged me not to go back to my mother's home.
But all your belongings were gone, and your mother couldn't accept the reality and collapsed on the bed.
The elder of your Yang family gave me two options. One was to let me come out to find you and take you back to make things clear.
One option is to let me stay in your house, serve your mother, and act as her maid, taking care of her excrement and urine.
I don’t know whether our Rong family will spoil our daughters, but we definitely won’t torture them as much as your Yang family does.
Also, in our Rong family, we use chopsticks to eat, but that doesn't mean we're spoiling our daughters. Eating with your hands is considered uncultured.
I really regret that I only stayed at your Yang family for three days and didn't even have the chance to see how you Yang family members are served with chopsticks! "
Yang Jixia originally wanted to refute, but after hearing the last sentence, he looked at the bowl in his hand and realized that he really didn't give the other person chopsticks.
After sighing helplessly, he could only push the bowl forward, but Tong Jia refused to take it.
He could only bring it into the house, put it on the table, and then turned and walked out. When he reached Tong Jia, he said, "Sorry, I'll go get the chopsticks now."
After saying that, he ran away again.
When he came back with the chopsticks, he raised his hand for the third time, but he couldn't knock on the door no matter how hard he tried.
Tong Jia looked at the figure reflected on the window and couldn't stand his nagging any longer, so she opened the door, took the chopsticks, and closed the door again.
The whole process was done in one go. Not only did he not give Yang Jixia a chance to speak, he didn't even give him a glance.
This time, Tong Jia directly locked the door from the inside and deliberately yawned to let people outside know that she was sleepy.
After that, he went to bed and continued to communicate with Tao Junle using pen and paper.
Tong Jia actually wanted to make things clear with Yang Jixia as soon as possible so that she could live her own life completely without distractions.
But she suddenly thought, if Yang Jixia asked her about her experiences during this period, how should she answer.
To be honest, her identity as a liaison is confidential. Even if she knew that everyone was on the same side, she couldn't mention it according to the organization's rules.
Especially since the shoulder bag she needed to bring back home was still in the RV. If Yang Jixia already knew her mission this time, she didn't know how to explain where she hid the bag.
She said she had been in the Northwest, but she was not very clear about what had happened in the Northwest during this period, and it would be easy to expose the truth if she said too much.
Therefore, she didn't want to talk to Yang Jixia directly today, and she had to make up this lie with Tao Junle tonight.
Because she was worried that people in other rooms would hear her if she spoke to Tao Junle and suspect she had mental problems, she simply communicated by writing.
While the two were discussing, Yang Jixia stood outside the door in a daze.
Political Commissar Guo was still worried, fearing that he would be beaten again, so he came over to check on him under the pretext of taking a walk after dinner, and was ready to break up the fight at any time.
But unexpectedly, when I got there, I only saw a big, stupid guy standing at the door.
I walked forward and took a closer look. There were no injuries on his face, and no new wounds on his hands or neck.
It’s okay. It seems that Miss Rong’s temper has improved a lot after she washed up and had a full meal.
Looking at the current situation, it is certain that the talks will not be successful.
Political Commissar Guo directly pulled Yang Jixia away.
When he returned to his room, Political Commissar Guo said, "Your room has been given to Miss Rong, so you can stay with me for the next few days.
How are you? You look like an eggplant hit by frost. What is Miss Rong's attitude?
Yang Jixia said: "We haven't discussed it yet.
I think I just made her angry because of my preconceived stereotypes, and then... I don't know how I knocked on the door and went in again."
After listening to Yang Jixia talk about the three times he went to Tong Jia's room, Political Commissar Guo wanted to give him a beating.
Political Commissar Guo said, "Talking to a woman is like fighting a war; you have to do it with all your might.
If you can't finish saying it in one go, it will be like you are now, the second time it will weaken, and the third time it will be exhausted.
Okay, don't be so dejected.
It's getting late today, and I don't have anything else to do. So, go to bed early.
If you really can't sleep, think carefully about what you should say when you see Miss Rong.
Tomorrow, after breakfast, I'll accompany you to talk to Miss Rong."
That night, neither Yang Jixia nor Tong Jia slept well.
Yang Jixia couldn't sleep. There were always two figures in his mind, one was Yuan Shengnan and the other was Rong Xintong (Tong Jia).
Thinking of the tacit understanding between her and Yuan Shengnan, and their common beliefs and hobbies, she was reluctant to give up Yuan Shengnan.
But what Rong Xintong said today was like a knife stabbing into his heart.
He admitted all the accusations and was indeed dishonest.
Faced with Rong Xintong (Tong Jia) who had gone through hardships to find him, he could no longer do something like he did on his wedding night, hitting someone on the back of the head with a vase.
Especially when he thought about the moment when Rong Xintong (Tong Jia) had just finished washing up and opened the door for him with water still dripping down her cheeks, he felt that if he asked for a divorce right away tomorrow, he would... be unable to open his mouth.
Although he has no romantic feelings for Rong Xintong (Tong Jia), he has a sense of moral obligation and responsibility.
He turned over, thought about his beliefs and what he was going to do next, and felt it was better to cut the Gordian knot.
Turning over again, he felt that he had been blind once again. This time he should not make a unilateral decision and should respect Rong Xintong (Tong Jia)'s feelings.
In short, he felt like he was riding a merry-go-round that night. His ideas kept changing and turning around, and he didn't make up his mind until dawn.
He had not made up his mind yet, but Tong Jia had already made up her mind.
It's just one idea - divorce.
Not only do they want a divorce, but they also want compensation.
What she took from the Yang family did not count. That was the reward for the Yang family's wrongdoing to Grandma Rong in her previous life by treating her like a slave.
Although it finally fell into her hands, it was not because she didn't want to give it to her, but because Grandma Rong didn't want it.
Yes, on the night she met Yang Jixia, Grandma Rong appeared in her dream, and the two of them even discussed a solution in the dream.
Tong Jia actually had a premonition about Grandma Rong’s dream.
She herself looked down on Yang Jixia's behavior, thinking he was irresponsible. She would condemn him and scold him, but even if she took action, she would only give him a clean slap in the face. At most, she would find him a vase to repay the blow on the back of his head on their wedding night.
She definitely wouldn't hit, kick, or bite Yang Jixia like she did during the day. That kind of energy, that kind of hatred, could only be Grandma Rong's own emotions.
Since Grandma Rong showed up so quickly, it showed that she was still paying attention to her own situation as before.
Now that the person she has been thinking about all her life has appeared, she will definitely have her own thoughts.
So, she wanted to go to bed early at night so that she could resolve the matter as soon as possible.
However, Tao Junle was worried that she would abandon him after becoming a real couple with Yang Jixia. Feeling very insecure, Tao Junle would wake her up before she fell asleep, holding a piece of paper with the words: "Sister, you really won't abandon me, right?", to confirm her answer.
Tong Jia, who had just eliminated a villain for the people during the day and had beaten up a heartless man, wanted to fall asleep as soon as possible to discuss things with Grandma Rong. She was also really tired and needed to rest.
When she was about to fall asleep for the fifth time but was pushed awake by Tao Junle, she could not bear it any longer and used drugs on Tao Junle.
After adjusting Tao Junle, who had finally stopped worrying about whether he would abandon him due to the effects of the medicine, to a comfortable sleeping position, Tong Jia could finally sleep peacefully.
After falling asleep, Tong Jia felt like she was back at her grandmother's house when she was a child.
There, she met Grandma Rong and her grandmother again.
When Tong Jia came, grandma was persuading Grandma Rong to be more open-minded.
Grandma Rong said, "My whole life has passed. Why should I be so reluctant to let it go? But my whole life has been ruined by him and his family. Why should I let it go?"
These two completely contradictory sentences must be the heartache that has troubled Grandma Rong throughout her life.
When the two saw Tong Jia coming in, they began to care about how Tong Jia had been doing recently. After the grandmother finished asking about her well-being, Grandma Rong started to ask.
She mainly asked about Yuan Shengnan.
When she heard that Yuan Shengnan was willing to break her bones in order to complete the task, a hint of admiration flashed in her eyes.
But after seeing the books and money Yuan Shengnan gave her, she didn't speak for a long time.
Until it was almost dawn and Tong Jia had to leave.
Grandma Rong then said, "Of course I want compensation, but Miss Yuan shouldn't give it to me. If anyone wants to give it, it must be Yang Jixia himself.
A forced melon is not sweet.
I understand this principle.
Jia Jia, you should ask him for a divorce tomorrow, but divorce alone is not enough. He must go back to the Yang family to clarify to me that his escape from marriage has nothing to do with me. I am the complete victim.
He also has to pay me money. He has to compensate me for my loss of reputation, my time, and the time you lost traveling all the way.
It doesn't matter if I can't use it, Jiajia, you can just use it. And those things you took from the Yang family, you spent them all, leaving the Yang family with nothing to feel relieved..."
After hearing Grandma Rong’s dream, Tong Jia knew what her main task was for the next day, which was to file for divorce.
