Eighties Sweetheart Wife
Chapter 380 Second Marriage?

Chapter 380: Chapter 380 Second Marriage?

Zhu Feng’s footstep that was about to step out stopped at the doorway.

She looked towards the window.

Just now, Xique was with Little Nuan.

Zhu Feng didn’t move; she just stood at the doorway, wanting to see how Whang Xiaoman would respond.

Obviously, Whang Xiaoman didn’t react in time, only staring at Xique in disbelief.

The words Xique had spoken were taught to her by Song Yunuan, who had anticipated what she would say when she got home. Although not every word was accurate, they were mostly on point.

So, Xique mustered the courage to utter those words.

Seeing Whang Xiaoman’s eyes widen with fear, she felt her legs go soft, but thinking of Sister Little Nuan, she straightened her chest. Besides, her grandmother was at home too.

"Did I say anything wrong? What did you tell me when you wanted to come back?

You said you would treat grandma, dad, and me well, but you’ve been back for almost a month now. What have you done? You haven’t cooked a meal or washed our clothes once. My grandma is so old, and she still has to cook for you. Don’t you feel ashamed or embarrassed?

Even for your own clothes, you expect my grandma to wash them. Do you think it’s still the past?

My youngest uncle doesn’t have a good temper. He doesn’t care if you make a fuss with my dad, but if you dare to bully my grandma, he will definitely not let you off.

So, is your plan to just roam from one house to another, being lazy and deflecting blame onto others every day?

My grandma and my dad have never wronged you. You should think about it. After you remarried, that man almost beat you to death, and your second mother-in-law scolded you every day. You told me you regretted it and that my grandma and my dad were better.

But what’s the result? Look at what you’ve done. From now on, you can’t continue like this. To be a good person is not just about talking, you need to show real actions.

And don’t boss me around. I have to study and do homework. My grandma is getting older and will not cook for you anymore. My dad said he would rather die than remarry you.

In that case, you can’t stay here forever because it’s a bad influence.

Besides, isn’t your household registration and allotted land in Little Mountain Village? You’d better go back there. My grandma and my dad don’t have the obligation to support you.

I do, but that will have to wait until I grow up and get a job to earn money. If you’re not in a hurry, you can wait. If you are, then remarry. Maybe you’ll even have a son, then you’ll have someone to rely on for life, which is much better than me, who costs you money."

Zhu Feng thought the previous words were already quite outrageous. She knew this granddaughter was quite tongue-tied, but today she seemed like a different person.

Upon closer consideration, she suspected these words could very well have been taught by Sister Little Nuan.

Whang Xiaoman finally reacted, and even with a thick skin, the words about remarrying made her face burn as if she had been slapped.

Her face turned livid, and she started hurling abuses.

"You dead loss, you dare to insult your own mother like this, I’ll beat you to death!"

With that, she charged at Xique, and Zhu Feng ran out, terrified. Whang Xiaoman was heavy-handed when hitting children, what if she caused harm?

Xique bravely said even more.

For some reason, the resentment that was clogging her heart suddenly found its way out.

She ran out of the house.

Whang Xiaoman chased after her immediately, and Zhu Feng also pushed open the door.

Seeing Whang Xiaoman chasing Xique, she furiously scolded, "You shameless thing, when you divorced my eldest son, the whole Willow Tree Village knew about it. You got divorced in the morning and remarried in the afternoon. Whang Xiaoman, no one mentioned this out of consideration for Xique’s feelings, not wanting her to have a shameless mother like you. If you had changed for the better, it would have been fine, but it’s true, a leopard can’t change its spots..."

Zhu Feng got more and more worked up as she scolded. She finally understood why many people who kept their anger bottled up inside died early.

Keeping words locked up inside for too long was truly uncomfortable.

Once everything was said, it was truly a relief.

How could that shameless woman have the audacity to come back and continue to bully them?

Whang Xiaoman turned around in disbelief to look at this former mother-in-law who seemed as meek as a lump of dough.

Had the world changed?

Or had the people she knew changed?

The next day, as Old Man Song took Song Yunuan to school in the morning, she looked at her grandfather’s house’s gate.

Old Man Song said to Song Yunuan, "Sit properly, don’t look north, or the north wind will blow into your mouth, and that’s uncomfortable."

He added, "That Whang Xiaoman finally left."

Last night, Whang Xiaoman stormed off with her luggage huffed and puffed.

Song Yunuan blinked her eyes, knowing that Whang Xiaoman had acted on impulse. Look, she would be back.

A permanent solution needed to be found.

-----------------

Song Ting and Chu Zizhou arrived safely in Beidu.

To their surprise, it was Zhu Mann who came to pick them up at the station.

Zhu Mann was feeling quite ambivalent, for Little Nuan, that girl, was truly not ordinary.

She had actually given her a fragrant rosewood lamp.

Its craftsmanship was so exquisite it bordered on the unbelievable.

Even though she was well-travelled and experienced, it was the first time she had seen such a beautiful craft.

She also knew that the lamp was very valuable.

Little Nuan had been too good to her Youngest Aunt.

So good that it made her a bit envious.

Seeing her teacher coming to pick her up in person, Song Ting’s anxiety eased, and she felt much more relaxed.

Zhu Mann glanced at Chu Zizhou and said with a smile, "Tingting, I’ve picked you up. I’ll call the Song family in a bit, and you don’t need to worry about it. You should hurry home. After all, it’s not easy to get a leave."

Chu Zizhou glanced at Song Ting, and after exchanging a few words, he didn’t hesitate and headed home promptly.

But he still made a call to Song Liang to report his safety.

Then Song Liang received another call from Song Ting.

Now he was completely at peace of mind.

The dormitory was a double room, and her roommate was a very nice girl.

This was all specially arranged by Zhu Mann.

The dance troupe and the big cafeteria, all of Song Ting’s relationships were well managed.

In summary, everything went smoothly.

Then Song Ting also found out about the fragrant rosewood lamp that Little Nuan had given to the teacher.

The teacher didn’t keep it from her.

But Little Nuan didn’t mention it upon returning, and of course, Song Yunuan wouldn’t either. It was better for Zhu Mann to bring it up herself.

Song Ting became even more determined to study hard, to be cautious with her words and deeds, and not to trouble the teacher.

She said the same thing when she talked to Song Yunuan on the phone.

Song Yunuan told her Youngest Aunt that it was good to think like that, but since people are unpredictable, she should go to the teacher if she encountered something she couldn’t solve.

Don’t keep it to herself and not worry about causing trouble for the teacher and the family.

They were not that fragile. Song Ting said, "I also need to learn many things and can’t rely on you for everything; otherwise, wouldn’t that make me useless?"

Song Yunuan quickly offered a few words of encouragement and then said, "Lin Xuezhu had been looking for a lot of people because she wanted a transfer, not to be fired. Chief Ghu did let people go."

Nowadays, workers and cadres are holding secure jobs, not easily fired.

Unless they committed a major offense.

Someone like Lin Xuezhu really didn’t reach the level of being fired.

Firing a cadre just based on some betting agreement wasn’t convincing.

Therefore, she was transferred to the machinery factory.

However, she received a censor for review.

Causing trouble out of nothing, spreading rumors and slander, is it all settled just by transferring her?

That wouldn’t be acceptable.
