In the reborn era, the lucky bag is enjoying the show in the factory area.

Yang Wei angrily threw his cigarette on the ground and stomped it out, then angrily gulped down a mouthful of water.

Now everyone in the room looked at Yang Wei with sympathy, feeling sorry for him.

Such a fine young man, encountering so many unpleasant things, and in the end, he even met two oddballs.

Haven't you ever thought about divorce?

Just get a divorce. Does that solve everything?

Yang Wei shook his head. "Lu Dali finally got me under his thumb, how could he let me go? Once I get a divorce, he'll definitely spread the word that I can't have children, and then I'll lose face big time."

I'm not afraid of losing face. It's just that I can't have children. There are so many people in the country, I'm not the only one. At worst, I can change jobs and move to a different city.

But I need this job. If I leave, I'll definitely have to quit. And if I quit, how will I help the villagers?

Yang Wei clutched his head in anguish, looking at the retreating figure with an indescribable pitifulness.

So, things have reached this stalemate.

If they divorce, Lü Dali will retaliate by spreading the news that Yang Wei is infertile, and he won't be able to change jobs because he needs money.

If he doesn't divorce his wife and reports her, he'll have to support Lü Dali's son. If he doesn't, he'll be breaking the law, and the crime of abandonment is not small.

Luo Yu was speechless when she heard this. This Yang Wei was too pitiful, and his luck was really bad. How come he had to encounter all sorts of bad things!

"So, you just wanted to take it one day at a time, out of sight, out of mind, and rent a place to live on your own?"

Aunt Zhao couldn't help but ask.

Yang Wei nodded. "I don't want to see them. It's fine if Lü Dali doesn't come. I'll stay in the east room, and Meng Jiao and her son will stay in the west room. We'll eat together, and I don't have to worry about anything else. It's not my house anyway."

Aunt Hu leaned closer and whispered, "Lu Dali only introduced you to Meng Jiao because of your child's schooling? In other words, you and Meng Jiao haven't been married for more than two years?"

Yang Wei nodded. "Yang Kang is in elementary school this year, and he is eight years old by the traditional Chinese age reckoning. I married Meng Jiao two years ago."

Miao Xiaohua's earlier words have been proven true, and everyone has gotten a complete scoop on the story.

Luo Yu tapped on the table, her thoughts churning as she tried to figure out a way to get Yang Wei out of the marriage.

"Now that Miao Xiaohua and Lü Dali are getting a divorce, given Lü Dali's nature, he will definitely make you divorce Meng Jiao and reunite with your biological child. Then the three of them will be together and everything will be perfect."

Therefore, he will also use your inability to have children as an excuse to threaten you into divorce. It won't be long; he will definitely bring it up with you three months later.

Perhaps everything will be settled in less than three months, before New Year's Day.

Yang Wei was overjoyed. "Really? He'll let me get a divorce?"

After asking the question, Yang Wei seemed to remember something and looked at Miao Xiaohua again.

"Sister Miao, are you really getting a divorce?"

Miao Xiaohua nodded, "Yes, we're leaving soon."

A glimmer of hope flashed in Yang Wei's eyes, "Then, if you get a divorce, can you marry me?"

Upon hearing this, everyone was shocked, and even Luo Yu, who had previously noticed something amiss, couldn't help but look at Yang Wei.

Miao Xiaohua looked at Yang Wei in shock, "What are you talking about? How could you be interested in a divorced woman with six children like me?"

Or do you want my daughter to take care of you in your old age?

If you're looking for retirement assistance, I can help you. I heard there are orphanages in the city, you could…”

Yang Wei waved his hand, interrupting Miao Xiaohua, "No, I truly love you. I want to marry you and build a family with you."

Miao Xiaohua looked at Yang Wei in surprise, "You...you like me?"

A look of confusion flashed in Miao Xiaohua's eyes, "We haven't seen each other for so many years, and we've never met before, how could you..."

Yang Wei laughed and said, "You've never seen me, but I see you every day."

Everyone's heads darted from left to right, their gazes shifting between Yang Wei and Miao Xiaohua, keeping them very busy.

Yang Wei continued, "You have to go out to buy groceries every day. In order to buy cheap vegetables, you go to the vegetable counter of the grocery store at night."

You go to the street every three days to get handicrafts, and then deliver the finished goods to the street to exchange for money.

You rarely leave the house or chat with the neighbors. The shoes you make are very good and fit perfectly. There's a pair of your shoes in the box; I secretly had someone buy them for me.

Also, you always go to the market on market days. Most of the vegetables in your house are bought from the market. If you didn't not have a bicycle and couldn't carry so many vegetables by yourself, you wouldn't go to the grocery store to buy things.

Furthermore, the bowls and chopsticks at home are also broken bowls you picked up from the market because they were cheap; you could get a bowl for just two cents.

A few days ago, the table at home broke down and was completely unusable. They couldn't even fix it this time, so you went to the junkyard and bought a secondhand one, which you carried home yourself.

As Yang Wei narrated, the lives of Miao Xiaohua and her daughters unfolded like a scroll, filled with pain, hardship, and laughter, but none of it concerned Lü Dali, the male head of the household.

Miao Xiaohua listened quietly to Yang Wei's story. She felt Yang Wei's sincerity towards her, and it would be a lie to say she wasn't moved. But she had no confidence at all. Did someone like her still deserve happiness?

Divorce and remarriage are rare in this era. Even if the government encourages widows to remarry, very few will do so unless they are very young, have no children, or are forced to remarry by their families for the sake of dowry money.

"Sister Miao, I know you might not be able to accept it right away. After all, I'm still a stranger to you, and you can't believe what I'm saying."

But I can wait, until we're both divorced, until you and your children can accept me, then we can talk about marriage.

But could you promise me you wouldn't refuse my help, or my advances? Give me a chance to take care of you.

Miao Xiaohua panicked a little. She had originally wanted to refuse Yang Wei's words directly, but she held back and looked at Luo Yu, asking her for advice.

According to Luo Yu, Miao Xiaohua should just marry Yang Wei. After hearing about Yang Wei's experiences over the years, Luo Yu felt that if it was true, Yang Wei was a very reliable person. Anyway, he couldn't have children, so Miao Xiaohua wouldn't need to have any more children. Her child with Lü Dali would also be well taken care of, so she didn't have to worry about Yang Wei being biased.

Yang Wei earns a lot, and even if he spends some on the village, he still has a lot left over, which is more than enough for his whole family to live on.

Moreover, judging from Yang Wei's appearance, it seems that he has long been in love with Miao Xiaohua. There's a saying that you will only find happiness if you marry someone who loves you. Never marry someone you love but who doesn't love you back, because then it won't just be two people suffering; there might even be a third.

But Luo Yu couldn't persuade him otherwise, so she had to ask Yang Wei.

"Comrade Yang, as you know, Comrade Miao Xiaohua has been married before and has children. Don't you think it's a loss for you, a young and unmarried man, to marry her?"

Yang Wei's face flushed red, and he glanced at Miao Xiaohua somewhat awkwardly.
