(Thank you all for your rewards and monthly tickets, I'm deeply grateful, love to you all!)
After Luo Dashan finished speaking, he remained silent for a long ti, then let out a deep sigh and continued, "Moreover, in the matter with Xu He, she knows she made a lot of mistakes. She pretended to reflect on herself truly, but in the end, it still turned out like this. This shows your mother doesn't know right from wrong. More seriously, she knows it's wrong but still insists on doing it."
Luo Dashan shook his head as he spoke, his tone becoming firmly resolute once again, "Such a person is beyond saving. This ti, no matter what, I will not have any relationship with her anymore."
Luo Dashan has always been a man of few words and never one to express great principles in speech. Perhaps in his entire life, he has never spoken such sensible words to any of his children, leaving Luo Cuilan and Luo Zhiming with no way to refute.
After that, Luo Cuilan also didn't want to persuade him anymore, just sighed and said, "Dad, if you really don't want to continue living with mom, we won't force you. You're at such an age, just do what makes you happy."
As a daughter, Luo Cuilan has also witnessed what kind of life her dad has been living these years. Although in the past two years, Luo Dashan's life in the city might have been a bit lonely, compared to before, he has had much less pressure and seems much happier and younger.
Unlike before in the countryside, where he was oppressed by Zhou Yuni on one side and felt guilty towards his children or relatives on the other. He was just in his fifties, yet he aged prematurely.
Previously, Luo Cuilan, because she was selfish, always thought only of herself. This ti, she felt it was ti to think about her dad.
"Okay." Luo Dashan nodded at Luo Cuilan, then suddenly rembered sothing and said to her, "Cuilan, I know you're probably worried that after your mom leaves, no one will look after Zhuzhu. If you trust , just leave Zhuzhu with . You can give so living expenses each month for him. Having him here would be like having so company for . In a year or so, Zhuzhu can start going to school."
Indeed, this was sothing that Luo Cuilan was worried about. She thought that if worst ca to worst, she would let Zhou Yuni take Zhuzhu to the countryside, but recalling how Zhou Yuni was, she feared she would teach Zhuzhu wrong and confused values. Also, if her son went back to the countryside, it would be difficult for her to see him often.
Hearing Luo Dashan's suggestion, Luo Cuilan imdiately agreed joyfully, "Sure, sure, Dad, I feel reassured if Zhuzhu stays with you. That's settled then, and I will definitely pay the living expenses on ti every month."
"Okay." Luo Dashan agreed with Luo Cuilan and then turned to look at Luo Zhiming, who had been silent since entering the house, and said in a heartfelt tone, "Zhiming, you are the child your mother loves the most. I know you probably can't bear to see treating your mom like this, but I hope you understand what's right and wrong."
"Dad, I understand. Mom brought this upon herself; no one else is to bla." Luo Zhiming also ca to terms. He knew that it was indeed Zhou Yuni who had made mistakes all these years, so he didn't say much, just said to Luo Dashan, "Let her go back to the countryside. It's better for her. She has so money and won't have too hard a ti."
Hearing Luo Zhiming being so sensible, Luo Dashan smiled comfortably and nodded, "Okay, then tomorrow I'll go back with your mom to handle the divorce proceedings. You children have all agreed."
Unexpectedly, before Luo Dashan's words were finished, Zhou Yuni had rushed back from outside, yelling, "What do you an 'all agreed'? I don't consent to this divorce!"
"Whether you agree or not doesn't matter. As long as I want a divorce, I have my ways to get it." This ti, Luo Dashan had no patience to reason with Zhou Yuni; he only looked at her with a gaze that carried a hint of threat, saying, "Moreover, think it through. If you follow peacefully back to get divorced, you can still live comfortably in the village. I won't say much about your affairs to the villagers. But if you're unwilling, then it's not my fault. The good deeds you did in the city will not be hidden by , and I will make sure you can't stay in the village, leaving you holess."
Zhou Yuni was stupefied; in her mind, Luo Dashan had always been an honest and kindly figure, probably never learning how to threaten others in his life, never uttering such strong words. If he got really angry, at most, he'd beat her once. She was prepared for a beating, made ready for it because, after being beaten, she could pretend it never happened.
She never imagined this ti Luo Dashan would be so different. He didn't hit her but instead spoke with utmost firmness, leaving her no hope of changing things, with every word about divorce.
Helpless, Zhou Yuni reverted to her old tricks, suddenly sitting on the ground and wailing, "Luo Dashan, you heartless man, after all these years, I'm still with you. Now, at this age, you treat like this."
Luo Dashan looked at her without the slightest emotion, just furrowed his eyebrows and said, "Zhou Yuni, I've been more than indulgent towards you all these years. It's your own failure to appreciate it; otherwise, you wouldn't be at this end."
"You..."
Zhou Yuni wanted to speak, but Luo Dashan had already cut in first, pointing to so things he had just packed up from the room, "Alright, the past is gone. I don't want to say more. Your things are all packed; tonight, let Zhiming take you to a nearby inn. Tomorrow morning, we head to the train station together."
Seeing Zhou Yuni's face full of indignant expressions, Luo Dashan also inferred she probably wouldn't be willing to comply, so he gave a warning, "If you don't want to end up making yourself restless, don't stir up trouble. Let's handle this matter straightforwardly tomorrow. Afterward, we'll each go our separate ways, and I won't say anything to anyone in the village, leaving you with a bit of dignity."
Seeing Luo Dashan's deanor made Zhou Yuni grind her teeth in hatred, feeling so unwilling in her heart. Thinking about how much hardship she'd endured with Luo Dashan over the years to get here, it was hard enough for life to get better, and now even their children are nearly settled. She has money, yet Luo Dashan intends to abandon her like this; she doesn't know how to cross this hurdle.
No matter what Luo Dashan says, Zhou Yuni won't agree to easily return and divorce him.
She also considered that, although Luo Dashan claims he will leave her so dignity, in a rural place like that, news spreads quickly. If they indeed go to the township governnt for a divorce, no matter how much they try to conceal it, the news will get out. In the future, living alone in the village won't be easy, as rural people might not be malicious, but their gossip can be unkind.
