“I’ve been so busy for more than half a year. When the third-year student I’m leading has graduated, I’m finally free to examine the relationship between me and my husband.”

Lin Qingyin picked up the teapot and refilled Li Wei’s cup of tea. She knew that Li Wei came here not only to make a decision, but also to express the depression in her heart, so she didn’t interrupt her, but refilled her tea from time to time.

“I wanted to get a divorce at the time, but my family didn’t agree. My mother felt that couples should discuss it, and end the quarrel before bedtime. And what’s more my husband didn’t beat me, so why should we divorce? She said it was normal for my husband to be angry because I don’t want children even after two years of marriage. If I divorce, I can do whatever I want, but she will no longer recognize me as her daughter.” Li Wei sighed melancholy: “It’s my family who doesn’t support me. It was the most helpless time of my life. At that time, my husband also noticed my thoughts, and he complained to the school leaders. The school leaders work with me now and then, so they said that I could rest assured and have children. The school would be my backing. At that time, the important class in the first grade of junior high school that I was originally assigned was given to someone else, and I didn’t even become the class adviser teacher.”

Facing such a result, Li Wei was very depressed. She drank alone at home, and when she got up, she found that her husband, who had been separated for half a year, was sleeping next to her.

Li Wei and her husband were only 27 or 28 years old at that time. They were young and strong, and they conceived a child without taking safety measures once.

“When I have a child, my family members don’t support divorce anymore. My husband started to show his love and care again. My mother-in-law even came to visit me once, as if the bad words didn’t come from her mouth.” Li Wei touched the teacup with her fingers, and a mocking smile appeared on the corner of her mouth: “However, this mask lasted for more than half a year. When the nurse came out of the delivery room with the baby in her arms and said that I had given birth to a daughter, my mother-in-law turned around and left.”

Recalling the hardships at that time, Li Wei felt very bitter: “My mother-in-law didn’t care about me, my mother took my niece, who was only over one year old, to help me for two months. At that time, my niece was still very young, she was taking care of her and gave me a helping hand, so my mother became tired and sick within two months. Fortunately, I was able to support myself at that time, but my maternity leave was only a few months. When the maternity leave was over, the child was still unattended. Before I could figure out what to do, my husband called the school to apply and asked me for a long vacation.”

“The long vacation has changed from one year to three years. The child is about to go to kindergarten, and she gets sick every three days. No need to mention going to work, I couldn’t even sleep well. I taught myself massage and I put all my thoughts on my child. When the child was a little older and her physical fitness improves, I was dismissed by the school because of a long-term vacancy.” Li Wei showed a sad smile: “From then on, I became a full-time housewife.”

Li Wei held her arm in silence for a moment and said: “At that time if I was sharp and determine, I should have divorced. If my family refused to take me in, I should go out and rent a house, instead of procrastinating and procrastinating only living a life like this today. Now that my child is in college, I feel that I am worthy of her for all the hard work I have done all these years. In the future, I want to live for myself and pursue the career that I gave up.”

Lin Qingyin smiled: “You have made a decision.”

Li Wei hesitated for a moment and said: “I mentioned it once after my daughter’s admission letter arrived. At that time, my daughter’s reaction was very intense. I… …”
