117 Chapter 117: Divorcing His Wife
Although Wang Laoshuan was a good-for-nothing, he was still the head of the eldest son’s family in the Wang family. The village chief still had to ask for his opinion.
“I…” As he glanced at Aunt Wang, a look of terror flashed across Wang Laoshuan’s eyes, and he still couldn’t force a word out.
“Divorce her! Beating her husband and beating her mother-in-law, what’s the point of keeping such a wife? Divorce her!” Suddenly, Old Grandma Wang pointed at Aunt Wang and bellowed furiously.
The Wang family was shocked upon hearing her words.
The people around them also began discussing heatedly.
It was indeed better to divorce this kind of wife.
However… they were already such an old couple. Among the two children, one was going for match-making, while the other would be of marriageable age in two years.
If Wang Laoshuan divorced his wife now, it would not be good for the two children’s marriage prospects in the future.
When the deranged Aunt Wang heard this, her face paled, and she finally calmed down.
When Wang Dashan heard this, he subconsciously frowned.
Then as he looked at his crazy mother being restrained by his hands, he felt that it might be a good thing for his father to divorce his mother.
At least there would be peace at home in the future.
In addition, there was no need for his little sister to be so worried and afraid of being sold again.
“Wang Laoshuan, divorce this woman for your mother!” Old Grandma Wang said again, looking at her eldest son.
Wang Laoshuan’s body trembled.
Thereafter, he couldn’t help looking at his wife.
“Wang Laoshuan! Don’t you dare!” Aunt Wang immediately roared back.
Wang Laoshuan was so frightened that he shrank his neck back.
Seeing this, everyone expressed their disdain.
Old Grandma Wang was extremely angry and brought her second son to Wang Laoshuan’s side.
“If you don’t divorce her, I’ll do it for you! In the first place, I should never have allowed this kind of evil woman to enter my Wang family’s household!”
As Old Grandma Wang said this, she turned to look at the village chief.
“I’ll have to trouble Village Chief to help me prepare the divorce documents. I’ll stamp my thumbprint on it later.”
As the mother-in-law, she had the right to repudiate her unfilial daughter-in-law.
This bitch actually hit her today. So many people had witnessed it, so there was no way for her to deny it.
When Aunt Wang heard this, she finally panicked.
“No! What right do you have to force him to divorce me, you old hag?”
“Wang Laoshuan, Wang Laoshuan, you goddamn son of a bitch! You’re a good-for-nothing! When you see someone bullying your wife, you simply stand by and watch?”
Aunt Wang’s words were particularly unpleasant to the ears, causing everyone present to frown.
“Big Brother! Don’t you think that you’ve embarrassed yourself enough?” Wang Dashi finally spoke.
Wang Laoshuan was finally awakened by these words.
“Shut up!” Wang Laoshuan finally said to Aunt Wang.
However, Aunt Wang was already used to trampling all Wang Laoshuan, so how could she let things rest? She did not give a damn and started cursing and swearing in even more unpleasant language.
“Alright. Village Chief, please prepare the divorce documents!” Wang Laoshuan finally said after enduring for a while.
With these words, the place went silent.
“Oh gosh! You goddamn Wang Laoshuan! Are you trying to drive me to my death?” Then, Aunt Wang changed tack and started wailing again.
Wang Laoshuan’s expression changed instantly. Just as he was about to change his mind, he was pulled back by his mother.
“Village Chief, quickly prepare the divorce documents! Just state that this Madam Qian disrespected her husband and mother-in-law, abused her daughter, and wanted to sell her. Once the documents are ready, my eldest son and I will sign them immediately!” Old Grandma Wang said to the village chief anxiously.
The village chief looked at Wang Laoshuan.
“Are you sure?” he asked.
This matter of divorcing a wife had never once happened in Brook Falls Village during his father’s term as the village chief, much less during his term now.
Although this woman Madam Qian was a shrew and very vicious, the village chief was actually a little reluctant to break the tradition in their Brook Falls Village because of her.
Wang Laoshuan hesitated.
“Big Brother…” At this moment, Wang Dashi spoke again.
Wang Laoshuan raised his eyes to look at his second brother. A moment later, he finally nodded at the village chief.
“Divorce her then,” he said.
At this juncture, even his own son didn’t step forward to stop him. From this, it could be seen that everyone wanted him to divorce Madam Qian.
Since that was the case, he would fulfill everyone’s wishes and divorce Madam Qian.
The village chief’s eyes flickered.
“Alright,” he said eventually.
Then, he remembered that the Song family’s residence was next to the Wang family’s, so he sent someone to borrow the writing materials from them.
At this moment, Qin Xiaoyao and Big Girl Li had just returned from the mountains and saw the commotion.
“Mrs. Song, you came at the right time. The village chief is going to help Uncle Laoshuan to write the divorce documents and asked me to borrow the writing materials from your place.” A young man walked out of the crowd and said to Qin Xiaoyao when he saw her.
Qin Xiaoyao got a shock at first.
...
She then replied, “Alright. Come back with me to get them.”
Then, as they walked to her home, she asked what had happened.
Qin Xiaoyao was a little surprised when she learned about the farce that had happened in the Wang family, but she was not really affected by it.
On the other hand, Big Girl Li sympathized deeply with Wang Xiaomei. She kept saying that Wang Xiaomei was so pitiful.
After returning to the Song family’s residence, Qin Xiaoyao found a brush, ink, paper, and an inkstone and handed them to the young man. After that, she prepared to continue with her work.
Much to her surprise, Big Girl Li dragged her over to the Wang family’s place to watch the drama.
It was not just Big Girl Li. Even Madam Liu and Song Yun also tagged along.
Thus, the three of them squeezed into the crowd under Big Girl Li’s lead.
They saw Aunt Wang struggling under her son’s hands like a lunatic, cursing and swearing vehemently non-stop.
However, the people around them did not seem to have noticed it. They were watching the spectacle with great interest, and it began to rouse Qin Xiaoyao’s interest too.
Before long, the village chief had prepared two sets of divorce documents.
...
Following that, Old Grandma Wang and Wang Laoshuan each pressed their thumbprints on the two sets of divorce documents.
After that, the village chief got someone to make Aunt Wang press her thumbprint on the documents too.
Naturally, Aunt Wang was uncooperative. In the end, it was Wang Dashi who, together with the villagers’ help, managed to get Aunt Wang’s thumbprint on those documents.
“Of the two sets of divorce documents, your Wang family keep one set. The other set is for the Qian family.” The village chief said after seeing that the procedures were completed.
“No, I’m not leaving! Even if I die, I will still die in your Wang family. I won’t leave!” Aunt Wang finally panicked and hugged her son’s leg tightly.
“Dashan! Dashan, I’m your biological mother! Are you just going to watch your grandma and father divorce me? Dashan, boo hoo hoo…”
Wang Dashan frowned. Owing to his sense of filial piety, he couldn’t kick away Aunt Wang, or rather, he should address her as Madam Qian now.
He could only stand still without saying a word.
Old Grandma Wang couldn’t stand it anymore.
She instructed Wang Dashi to pull Madam Qian away from her eldest grandson’s feet.
She then said, “You can die if you want to! Just aim well and hit your head there! If you die, our Wang family doesn’t mind going through a little hardship to carry your body back to the Qian family!”
Madam Qian looked in the direction that Old Grandma Wang was pointing at. When she saw that it was a stone block, her expression changed.
She didn’t really want to die, so how could she go that way?
Thus, after being pulled away, Madam Qian ran toward Wang Laoshuan.
She was ready to pester the simple-minded man.
To her surprise, Wang Dashi appeared again and blocked her from getting to Wang Laoshuan.
Madam Qian’s heart was dead set, and she couldn’t care less anymore. She simply grabbed Wang Dashi’s leg instead and wailed.
“Second Brother, Second Brother! I beg you to give me a chance! I can’t be divorced! I can’t be divorced!” Her cries were quite miserable.
