First Assistant's Petite Wife Has Space Chapter 198 – 198 Are you Stupid?

198 Are you Stupid?

Xie Yunjin raised his head and looked at his father, “Father, can you give mother a chance? She raised so many children with you.”

Xie Yunjin's words made Xie Laogen hesitate. However, during the quiet time while he pondered, Lady Ruan screamed at Xie Yunjin.

At the moment, she felt like she was only in the situation she was in now because her third son didn't help her. If he let her sell Widow Wang, Xie Laogen wouldn't dare to divorce her.

She lost all logic and screamed at Xie Yunjin, “Xie Sangou, I don't need your fake kindness! You're an unfilial and disobedient bastard! If I knew how unfilial you would be, I would've drowned you in the manure bucket!”

All eyes turned to Lady Ruan in disbelief. That woman must be crazy! They thought Lady Ruan might actually be brain damaged or else she wouldn't be in the situation she was in.

Xie Yunjin's face turned cold right away as he looked at her in disdain.

He truly had no idea why Lady Ruan detested him this much. Not only did she hate him, but she also gave him a hard time every chance she got. When he was first born, his grandparents wanted to take him and raise him but Lady Ruan reacted like a crazy person, which eventually made the grandparents give up on the thought.

Though she kept him, she didn't act like a mother. She left him there and tried to starve him to death.

Sometimes, Xie Yunjin wondered if Lady Ruan was not his biological mother. Because not only did she hate him, he hated her just as much. They didn't share any bond biological parents and sons should have.

No matter how much he dug into it, no evidence suggested he was not her biological son. That year, Lady Ruan did give birth to a child.

Xie Yunjin grinned and challenged, “Yes, I am unfilial and disobedient. How come your filial and obedient children aren't speaking up for you then?”

Lady Ruan subconsciously looked over to Xie Yunhua and Xie Lan, who met her gaze and retreated. They only felt embarrassed at the moment for having such a shameless mother.

Xie Yunhua honestly wanted to say something on his mother's behalf. However, his dad had warned him earlier that if he meddled with this family's business, he would pay for it.

If his parents continued to fight so publicly, will young lady Du still marry him? However, he's already held her hand and even kissed her. Who else would she marry if not him?

Xie Yunhua calmed down a little.

Lady Ruan's heart ached when she saw the expression her youngest son and daughter had.

She turned to her eldest and second eldest sons. Finally, she looked toward Xie Yunjin.

Xie Yunjin looked away and landed his gaze on Xie Laogen.

Xie Laogen was at first hesitant but when Lady Ruan cursed at Xie Yunjin, he became determined about the divorce again.

His third son will one day become an official and he will be the father of an official. Lady Ruan, however, continued to treat their third son poorly. If he doesn't leave her now, his relationship with their third son will deteriorate even further. When that happens, he won't be recognized as the father of an official.

Xie Laogen made up his mind and said to the leaders, “Village and Clan Leader, I am resolute on divorcing Lady Ruan. I hope you can agree to it.”

Now that Lady Ruan has heard Xie Laogen's decision, she became flustered.

“Xie Laogen, if you dare to divorce me, I will die in front of you right now!”

Xie Laogen mocked, “Die and show me! All these years, you threaten to kill yourself every time I do something you disagree with. Yet here you still are, alive. You really don't think I know you're bluffing?”

Lady Ruan's face turned even paler. The leaders looked toward Xie Yunjin, who remained silent.

The leaders sighed deeply and finally said, “Since you've made up your mind, then we grant you the right to divorce.”

Their decision made Lady Ruan's vision go dark and her body swayed. She struggled and screamed, “No! Nobody is allowed to kick me out! I married into this family for so many years and I gave birth to so many children for him! He has no right to divorce me!”

The Clan Leader responded, “Lady Ruan, based on your normal behavior, he should've divorced you a long time ago. To have waited so long is him giving you face. You were only able to marry him because you seduced him. After you became a part of the family, you angered your in-laws to death. You are not kind to your children and convinced your husband to exile your third son the second he got injured.

Afterward, you went into your son's home and caused scenes time after time. And now, because your man has gotten a concubine, you dare to fight your man physically and claw his face. Look at all the things you've done… Singling out any one of these events is enough to make him divorce you. Therefore, we grant him the right to divorce such a shrew woman.”

The Clan Leader no longer had any patience. He initially didn't want to make a decision to be considerate of Xie Yunjin. However, it appeared that Xie Yunjin didn't want anything to do with this. The Clan Leader understood him. To have a mother like this meant once he became an official, she would drag him down. It was better for his parents to divorce now.

The Clan Leader asked for someone who knew how to draft a divorce letter.

The Clan Leader didn't ask Xie Yunjin to write it out. After all, this involved his father.

Lady Ruan finally was dumbfounded. Her eyes went dark and her head felt dizzy. She didn't dare to pass out for fear that someone would ship her back to her home.

Lady Ruan turned to her children and cried, “You are really going to watch your mother get kicked out?”

Xie Daqiang glanced at his father. He wanted to say something but Xie Laogen glared at him in disgust.

Xie Daqiang shut up.

Xie Erzhu saw how sad his mother was crying and felt bad. He said to Xie Laogen, “Father, you should give mother a chance. She will treat you well going forward. Though mother never treated others well, she's always been kind to you.”

That was true. Though she was never nice to her in-laws or children, she always prioritized him when it came to good food, clothing, and daily care.

Xie Laogen watched Lady Ruan, thinking that if this woman begged him and vowed to stop making a scene at every possible moment, he would allow her to stay.

Lady Ruan saw the way Xie Laogen looked at her but was too prideful to beg. All these years, she's acted like she was better than him. To her, Xie Laogen was essentially useless. She didn't think she would be able to beg him to not leave her.

Xie Laogen noticed how she didn't appear regretful and how her face remained stern. Without any desire to keep her, Xie Loagen hollered at Xie Erzhu, “Why would you take the side of a mother who is neither virtuous nor kind? Are you stupid? She hasn't tortured you enough?”

Xie Erzhu instantly became mute. Out of habit, he turned to his third brother, who stood there silently and coldly. Xie Erzhu knew then that his third brother no longer wanted to get involved. That meant he should stop talking as well.

The divorce letter was drafted quickly after. Xie Laogen placed his thumbprint without hesitation, indicating the end of his marriage with Lady Ruan.

The Clan Leader ordered Xie Daqiang and Xie Erzhu to accompany Lady Ruan back to the Ruan home.
