Chapter 394: Chapter 394 Auntie’s Having a Good Time Now

Yue Xiaofang sighed and gently patted Guo Xue’s back, allowing her to vent.

The crying disturbed Yue Xingxing upstairs, who stealthily poked her head out from the staircase.

Yue Xiaofang waved at her, and Yue Xingxing went back upstairs with her book in her arms.

After Guo Xue had her cry, Yue Xiaofang took a tissue and wiped her tears.

Guo Xue’s eyes were still bruised and swollen from being hit, looking particularly pitiful after crying.

"Xiaofang, my life is so hard..."

Yue Xiaofang shook her head, "Actually, I have a solution."

Guo Xue immediately latched onto it like a lifeline, "Tell me."

Yue Xiaofang said resolutely, "Divorce Chang Tiancheng, find a way to keep your child with you, I am hiring people right now, you can come to the city and I can arrange a place for you to stay."

Guo Xue immediately lowered her head upon hearing this suggestion.

"Divorce?"

"Since he has betrayed you and you can’t get past it, why torture yourself by staying together?"

But Guo Xue was reluctant, "The child is still young..."

"Your child is also old enough to start junior high. You can pay the out-of-district school fees to send the child to study in the city."

"But without a father, the child will be laughed at by others."

Yue Xiaofang smiled bitterly; had she not had the same thoughts once?

However, in reality, being a single parent was far better than living in an unhappy family.

Yue Qingqing also said in a low voice, "I have a good friend whose parents are divorced, her grandmother didn’t like her because she’s a girl, and wasn’t nice to her, but later her mom started working with her aunt, and now their home is much better, and she smiles more than before."

"As for your worry that the child will be laughed at, that won’t happen, at least our school’s teachers won’t allow classmates to say things like that, otherwise they’ll be called to the office for criticism and might even have to stand as punishment."

Guo Xue hesitated, "But how can it be the same, my child is a boy."

When Yue Qingqing heard this, she gave up on speaking.

No matter what anyone said, Guo Xue would find a way to refute it.

She had locked onto this dead idea and wouldn’t consider divorce.

Yue Xiaofang had always been on good terms with Guo Xue since childhood and thought about persuading her some more.

"If you’re willing to ask me for a loan, it shows that you can’t swallow this insult. Do you really want to be choked by it for a lifetime?"

Guo Xue spoke through her sobs, "Xiaofang, you should know better than anyone how a child without a father is treated. When we were kids, so many people bullied you and wouldn’t play with you. I was the only one who cared and played shuttlecock with you."

In the end, divorce was never an option that entered Guo Xue’s mind.

Yue Xiaofang shook her head, giving up on persuading her.

Guo Xue then gritted her teeth and said, "It’s all because of that floozy in the city seducing my man. Chang Tiancheng now even wants to move to the city, isn’t it all for her?"

Yue Xiaofang rubbed her temples, feeling a headache.

There seemed to be no way to get through to Guo Xue.

"Forget it, it’s getting late. I’m going to prepare the beds. Stay here tonight and when you have figured out what to do, you can go back."

Guo Xue, however, stood up, "My treasure is waiting for me at home."

Yue Xiaofang escorted Guo Xue to the courtyard gate, and in that short walk, neither spoke another word.

It was only as she was about to leave that Guo Xue suddenly spoke up.

"Xiaofang, even though you have money now, you have no man, no children. What are you going to do in the future?"

Yue Xiaofang didn’t know what face to make, feeling a mix of amusement and distress.

Guo Xue couldn’t even look after herself, yet she was worried about her marriage?

"A big estate will eventually need someone to inherit it," Guo Xue sighed and slowly walked back.

Yue Xiaofang suddenly understood.

Although they had been close in their youth, as they grew up, it was impossible for them to have the bond they once shared.

It wasn’t because of a change in status, but because of a difference in thinking.

Just because she lacked a marriage and children, she was still seen as a failure in Guo Xue’s eyes.

Her last words were meant to say, despite all the trouble I’ve faced, at least I have a family and children— as if to say she still had an edge over Yue Xiaofang.

In the cold night, a little hand gently grasped Yue Xiaofang’s icy one.

"Aunt, don’t be sad. Time will prove who’s right and who’s wrong."

Yue Xiaofang gently stroked her niece’s head and kissed her cheek.

"I’m not sad. My days are quite nice right now." Better than ever!
