365 Divorce
When Wen Qin saw Yu Bing’s warm smile and the encouraging look in her eyes, she ignored her fear. “Miss Yu, I want to ask if you know any empty houses in the village that can be rented to me?”
Yu Bing asked curiously, “You’re moving out?”
Wen Qin nodded firmly. “I want a divorce!”
Unlike in the future, where people would call for divorce at the drop of a hat, in this day and age, asking for a divorce would definitely cause an uproar. If it was in the countryside, it would be even worse.
Yu Bing didn’t find Wen Qin’s decision strange at all. With her support, as long as Wen Qin had a backbone, as long as the Sun family did anything to provoke Wen Qin, Wen Qin would definitely counterattack immediately.
Wen Qin was knowledgeable and cultured, but she was forced to marry Sun Guo. Most importantly, not only did Sun Guo not cherish such a good wife, but he also helped his mother persecute her with feudal thoughts.
If this dysfunctional marriage continued, it would be the greatest contradiction to the advocacy of equality between men and women.
Yu Bing thought about the housing situation in the village. “Safety is the most important thing if you want to live alone. There’s an empty house near Auntie Zhao in the village. If you shout, the people around you can hear you. I’ll help you ask about the empty house at noon.”
Wen Qin didn’t know why, but she had a premonition that Yu Bing wouldn’t persuade her not to get a divorce, like others would. However, she didn’t expect her to agree to help her without hesitation.
Yu Bing was very efficient and found out that the house beside Auntie Zhao belonged to the village chief’s second uncle.
Two years ago, the village chief’s second uncle felt that that piece of land was too small and that after the family had more children, it wouldn’t be able to accommodate them, so they bought new land to rebuild in the west of the village. Now, the small courtyard here was empty.
When the village chief’s second uncle heard that Wen Qin was willing to rent it, he was very happy. No one lived in the house, so it would become dilapidated if it was left there for too long. Although they were not living there now, he couldn’t bear to let such a good house go to waste. Hence, he only charged them two yuan in rent per month.
Of course Wen Qin was willing, so she took leave in the afternoon to sign the contract.
After Wen Qin received her salary, she paid 1.4 yuan without hesitation.
After work, Wen Qin entrusted Xiao Hui to Yu Bing. Then, she planned to go back and pack her things before moving in tonight.
The Sun family’s home.
When Sun Guo saw his wife enter the room to pack her clothes as soon as she returned home, he felt a little flustered. “Wen Qin, what are you doing?”
When Wen Qin came to the countryside back then, her parents had packed a lot of clothes for her. However, after she got married, they were either taken away by Madam Sun or given away in exchange for favors. In addition, she had never bought a single piece of clothing for so many years, so there were not many clothes for her to pack now.
After Wen Qin took out her bag, she began to stuff her and her son’s things. When Sun Guo saw that Wen Qin was silent, he snatched the bag and asked in a panic, “Are you planning to abandon this family and your son?”
Wen Qin sneered. “Of course I want my son, but this has never been my home, so how can I ‘abandon’ it?!”
At this moment, Sun Guo glared at Wen Qin fiercely. “Did you find a man outside? Who is that adulterer?”
Sun Guo was very suspicious. He had seen how popular she was with men from the first day she married into the family. On their wedding day, when they toasted, other men would ogle her. At night, as soon as she returned to the house, Sun Guo immediately hit her and scolded her for seducing men, but she didn’t even know which man looked at her.
Wen Qin was already used to Sun Guo’s reaction. Now, she was no longer afraid of the Sun family!
Wen Qin rolled her eyes and said impatiently, “I came back firstly to pack my things and leave, and secondly to discuss the divorce with you.”
When Sun Guo heard this, he was instantly furious and shouted, “B*tch, don’t even think about getting a divorce! You can only be mine!”
When Madam Sun heard the commotion, she came to the bedroom and looked at Wen Qin with a cold gaze. “There must be an adulterer. It’s probably that accountant from last time! Hmph, I knew that something would happen sooner or later if she went to work. How can men and women work together? Isn’t this giving those bitches a chance to seduce men? A factory? I think it’s more like a brothel!”
In the eyes of the Sun family’s mother and son, any man and woman who were not husband and wife probably had some sort of dirty relationship. When Wen Qin saw this ignorant mother and son, she felt nauseous!
