“This…” Lu Jiangting stammered, “Fang Qing probably thinks that if I get married and take care of my own family, I won’t be able to take good care of them, mother and son.”

Yi Yunshuo: "..." He thought he didn't know, but it turns out he did.

Yi Yunshuo didn't understand.

"Since you knew that, why did you still do it?"

"I wanted to tell her that no matter whether I get married or not, I will help her and her child if they have any difficulties."

Yi Yunshuo: "..." Well, it seems he was meddling in other people's business.

Divorce, this divorce is the right thing to do.

If Lu Jiangting refuses to divorce her, he will help the girl file a complaint with the military.

……

The next day, Yi Yunshuo ran off early in the morning without even eating breakfast.

I had made plans with Fu Huaiyi to go hiking; they had agreed on it a long time ago.

Actually, I just couldn't stand it anymore and wanted to run away as soon as possible.

When he arrived, Fu Huaiyi had just gotten up and was about to brush his teeth.

Upon seeing him, Yi Yunshuo felt as if he had seen a relative.

"Luckily, this is the only guesthouse around here, otherwise I wouldn't know where to look for you."

Fu Huaiyi ignored him and continued brushing his teeth.

Yi Yunshuo also took out his toothbrush, looking for toothpaste as he said, "I never expected Lu Jiangting to be this kind of person. You have no idea what he's thinking. He said he has a good relationship with that girl and will make it up to her later."

But he knew Fang Qing was doing this because she didn't want them to get married. He knew, you understand? He knew all that, yet he still lent her money, making it impossible for him to get married.

Fu Huaiyi gave a cold laugh but remained silent.

Yi Yunshuo found the toothpaste, squeezed out a piece, went to get water, and continued, "He also said that Fang Qing did this because she was worried that he wouldn't take care of them and their child after he got married. He did this to tell Fang Qing that no matter whether he gets married or not, he will not abandon them and their child."

"Ha, that girl is right. After we get married, Lu Jiangting will have to continue to help Fang Qing and her son, and he will do whatever Fang Qing and her son ask for."

Life is so long, I don't think I'll ever be able to compensate that girl; what I might be able to do is drag her down with me.

Yi Yunshuo started brushing his teeth and stopped talking.

After Fu Huaiyi finished brushing, he said, "So you couldn't stand it either?"

Yi Yunshuo gave a vague reply.

Fu Huaiyi: "Then we won't be able to attend the wedding banquet, so we'll save the twenty yuan. Shall we go to a state-run restaurant for a nice meal later?"

Yi Yunshuo nodded hurriedly.

……

After breakfast, Lu Jiangting, shameless as ever, actually went to the village store and bought two bags of fruit candy, which he then took to Lin Yuyao's house.

However, Lin Yuyao is not home at the moment.

Only Lin Dawei was at home, shoveling chicken droppings in the pen.

Lu Jiangting searched around before finally finding Lin Dawei. He bent down and called out to him, "Uncle, you're busy, where's Yuyao?"

Lin Dawei, who was diligently shoveling chicken droppings: "..."

Knowing it was that bastard, he scooped up a shovelful of chicken droppings and swung it at him.

"roll."

Lu Jiangting was quite skilled and managed to dodge it.

"Uncle, I know I was wrong. I've come to apologize to Yuyao. I will make it up to her. Life is so long, I will spend my whole life making it up to her."

"I don't need your apology, just get out."

Lin Dawei came out of the chicken coop with a shovel and slid in to tackle him.

Unfortunately, he was outmatched and his sliding tackle went awry, leaving him pinned down and unable to move.

Lin Dawei was so angry that he spat at him.

"Who told you to come? Didn't you hear me tell you to get lost?"

"Uncle, I really know I was wrong. If you want to hit me, then hit me. But a shovel won't do; it can kill someone."

Lin Dawei shook his head and said, "Pah, I'd rather not hit you than get my hands dirty. Even if I don't hit you, you can forget about having any future with Yuyao. I'm telling you, this divorce is final."

Seeing his resolute attitude, Lu Jiangting thought for a moment and said, "How about this, we'll still have the banquet, but we can't have twenty tables. Let's just have three to five tables and invite close relatives for a meal. What do you think?"

"No, it won't work. Even if you set up thirty or fifty tables, it's not enough, let alone three or five tables."

Lin Dawei grabbed a broom from the side and said, "Get out, get out of here right now."

Seeing Lin Dawei's agitated state, Lu Jiangting realized that normal communication was no longer an option.

Yu Yao wasn't there either, so he decided to leave first.

After leaving the Lin family's house, he asked the neighbor next door.

A neighbor said, "I saw Yuyao and her mother leave early this morning. I don't know if they went to visit relatives or went to the city."

No wonder I didn't see her.

"Okay, thank you."

Lu Jiangting took two more bags of fruit candy back with him.

When he got home, his parents asked, "Why did you bring him back again? They're sure to say something unpleasant, but just bear with it and try to coax him."

Lu Jiangting gulped down a large mouthful of water and said, "Yuyao isn't home. I heard from the neighbors that she and her mother left early this morning."

"Huh? Where did you go?"

"I don't know, I'll go this afternoon."

"Sigh! Fine then." Wang Cuilan glanced at the candy on the table and said, "Jiang Ting, remember to be nicer to him, after all, you were in the wrong. Yu Yao is a good girl, don't miss out on her."

"Mother, I know."

At this time, Lin Yuyao and her mother Ye Lian had arrived in town. They were there to return the wedding favors.

She doesn't plan to go through with the marriage. If it can be called off, then it will be; if it can't be called off, then they're just unlucky.

They spent a long time arguing with the shopkeepers, saying all sorts of nice things, and successfully returned several items.

Since the rest couldn't be returned, Ye Lian picked and chose, saying, "Let's take them back and see which ones we can use later for your older brother's wedding during the New Year. We shouldn't lose much."

There will definitely be losses, but there's nothing we can do about it.

If you don't stop the losses in time, you'll only lose more in the future.

It was almost noon, so Ye Lian pulled her toward the state-run restaurant.

Lin Yuyao looked at the plaque and asked, "Mother, what are you doing?"

Ye Lian said, "Let's go to a restaurant for dinner, mother and daughter."

"Oh? That's so expensive! Let's buy some meat and take it home so the whole family can have some."

"We'll buy meat, and we'll eat out too." Ye Lian pulled her along and laughed, "The money your brother gave me last night, he specifically told me to take you out for a meal, saying that we should eat all our unhappiness into our stomachs. Look, your brother gave me twenty yuan."

Lin Yuyao was deeply moved, thinking that it was only her family who truly cared for her.

I wonder if she was bewitched by Lu Jiangting before, that she was so infatuated with him.

Because she insisted on marrying Lu Jiangting, her parents became inferior to Lu Jiangting's parents.

"Mom, you are so good to me."

As Ye Lian poured her tea, she said, "Silly girl, I was in pain for three days and three nights before I gave birth to you. I didn't want you to suffer in someone else's house. If I'm not good to you, who will be good to me?"

She pushed the tea towards her, saying, "Drink some water quickly, you've been walking for half a day, your mouth is dry."

"Hey, Mom, you drink too."
