Chapter 869 - 869: Trouble!
“l couldn’t stand it. Based on his parents’ intentions, I’m assuming that my future wages will also be used to support that concubine and the child. If that concubine really gave birth to a son, my life would only get worse. Hongguo wouldn’t be able to get anything that 1 worked so hard for.
“l don’t want anything. I just want to save up my wages to buy a dowry for
Hongguo, so that she can get married in an honorable manner. With a dowry, she can have more confidence in her in-laws. I’ve already told him a long time ago that I’ll leave my wages with him first and use them on Hongguo in the future…
Before she could finish, Du Shanqiang said, “l didn’t expect my parents to use that money to buy me a concubine. I originally only wanted to leave the money with my parents and let them keep it for us…”
However, Xue Daxi did not wait for Du Shanqiang to finish his sentence. She interjected his excuses, “Father, if you don’t mind me coming back, l… I want to divorce him.’
Speaking up to this point, Xue Daxi’s tears started flowing again.
If it wasn’t for the fact that she couldn’t take it anymore and didn’t know why she had to stay in that house, she wouldn’t have said such a thing.
Jiang Yue felt that although this aunt was born and raised here, she knew her worth and was not st*pid.
Xue Yan could only sigh and purse his lips in denial.
In his previous life, Du Shanqiangs family had always been poor. How could they have the money to take concubines?
When Hongguo’s cousin turned 18, which was three years later, Du Shanqiang and his parents gave up on hoping for a grandchild. They decided to keep Hongguo’s cousin at home to look for a husband. Even if she broke up, she would have someone to support her in her old age.
When he became an official, his aunt also followed suit. His aunt’s family’s life was also slowly improving. However, Du Shanqiang’s parents had passed away. No one was willing to take concubines for Du Shanqiang. Du Shanqiang himself was still an honest man. He had never thought about taking concubines. He was happy living well with his aunt.
In short, Du Shanqiang didn’t take concubines in his previous life.
“What?!” Du Shanqiang couldn’t believe it. He didn’t expect his wife to have such an idea. He originally thought that it would at most be a ruckus. After some time, things would still go on as they should. He felt that this matter would eventually pass.
“Perfect!” Xue Da repeatedly nodded his head. “Father won’t despise you. In fact, he’s still here. You can come back anytime. Your family won’t just stand by and watch.”
“l have rooms in both my new and old houses,” Xue Dafu immediately said. “If you come back and want to stay anywhere, just let me know.”
Xue Dagui chuckled and said, “Sounds good. If you want to stay at my house, you can do it. It just so happens that if I go home to stay, you can also cook for me, your dearest brother!”
Xue Daxi nodded with tears in her eyes. She knew that her father and brothers had always treated her well.
“That…That can’t be!” Finally, Du Shanqiang panicked. “What’s going on with you guys? Everyone else is trying to persuade you to reconcile instead of getting a divorce. Why are you guys…”
Xue Xiaoxi immediately retorted, “What? Do you still want my sister to be a slave in your family?!” What is the relationship between that concubine and my sister? Why should my sister earn money to support her?”
