Chapter 6
Chapter 6 — Marriage and Love Are Two Things, So Divorce Is Also My Thing
Deputy Thua Nghien called six times. Mother-in-law called four times. Wen Shuyao called twice. I asked for half a day off from my previous company. Then switch the phone to silent mode. When returning to the apartment complex. Mother-in-law was waiting downstairs. She wore a dark red coat. Carry a thermos in your hand. Just saw me approaching. Her face immediately broke into a smile.
"Tri Hoa, mom stewed some soup. Thua Nghien said you didn't eat well last night."
I looked at her. Pho Thua Nghien really acted very quickly. As soon as I took action... I immediately hit the emotions. I received the thermos.
“Thank you, mom.”
My mother-in-law breathed a sigh of relief and held my hand.
"Which husband and wife don't quarrel at times? Thua Nghien has been pampered by her mother since she was a child. She speaks frankly, so don't take it to heart."
I calmly replied:
“He doesn't have to talk straight.”
“He knows how to speak very well.”
“I just never said nice things to you.”
The smile on the mother-in-law's face stopped. The elevator door opens. We walked in together. Just entered the house. She saw the file placed on the tea table in the living room. Pho Thua Nghien walked out of the guest room. His eyes were filled with blood. As soon as he saw his mother, he immediately frowned.
“Mom, why are you here?”
The mother-in-law placed the thermos on the table.
“You two are making such a fuss, why can't mom come?”
She turned to me, her tone softened.
"Tri Hoa, I know you feel sorry for yourself. But divorce is not a small matter."
"You two have been married for three years and don't have children yet. You should try to live together well."
"Mom knows that girl named Thu Dieu. She's just Thua Nghien's college classmate, it's nothing."
I looked at her.
“Do you know her?”
The mother-in-law stopped. Pho Thua Nghien immediately spoke up.
“I've met her before.”
I nodded. The mother-in-law's eyes avoided.
“It's been a long time.”
I don't ask more. Just turned around and went into the office, taking another printed sheet of paper.
“Since we're here, let's see this too.”
Mother-in-law received it. Just after reading two lines, his face changed. That is Pho Thua Nghien's transfer history last year to his mother. 15,000 yuan per month. Notes are living expenses. That's not unusual. What's worth mentioning is... While I was completely unaware, Pho Thua Nghien also used a joint account to buy her mother-in-law a financial investment package worth 200,000 yuan. The mother-in-law's hand trembled.
“This... isn't Thua Nghien filial to his mother?”
“It's okay to be filial.”
"But large expenses from the marital assets must be known to both."
Pho Thua Nghien's voice was low.
“That's my mother.”
“I didn't say no.”
I looked straight at him.
“Your mother's investment, I can tell.”
“The wine and flowers you bought for Wen Shuyao, I can also say.”
“What do you want to talk about first?”
The mother-in-law immediately turned to Pho Thua Nghien.
“What do you mean by wine and flowers?”
Pho Thua Nghien's face darkened.
“Lam Tri Hoa, do you have to say these things in front of your mother?”
I smiled softly.
“When I called my mother to come…”
“Did you never think things would turn out like this?”
The mother-in-law quickly grabbed Pho Thua Nghien's hand.
“Are you really spending money on that girl?”
Pho Thua Nghien tried to suppress his anger.
“It's not what I think.”
I picked up the phone. Open the photos now put it on the tea table. Bouquet of white roses. Restaurant receipt. Airport parking. Mother-in-law stared at the screen. Her lips trembled slightly. She wasn't angry on my behalf. She was just afraid that her son's family would break up. Fear of having to divide assets. Afraid the neighbors will know about it. Immediately, she turned to advise me.
"Tri Hoa, even if Thua Nghien doesn't do it right, you can't destroy the family."
"When men go out to socialize, sometimes it's hard to avoid not being careful."
“As a wife, you have to pull it back.”
I put my phone away.
“Mom said it wrong.”
I picked up my bag and walked towards the door.
“You are not a lifesaver.”
“There is no obligation for an adult to cling to him and learn to be moderate.”
Pho Thua Nghien walked a few quick steps. Block right in front of the door.
“Where are you going?”
“Go to the company.”
“Today we must make it clear.”
I glanced at his hand.
“Are you going to close the door and force me to talk?”
The mother-in-law quickly walked over.
“Thua Nghien, don't be like that.”
Pho Thua Nghien's chest heaved. In the end... He still moved aside. Before opening the door. I turned my head to look at him.
“Before six o'clock in the afternoon, clean the guest room.”
“From tonight, I'm in the master bedroom.”
“I'm in the guest room.”
“If you don't agree…”
“I will move out.”
“The separation period will be counted from today.”
Pho Thua Nghien stared at me.
“Can you really be that cruel?”
I calmly replied:
“When I peeled shrimp for someone else…”
“Your hands are also very skilled.”
The moment the door closes. In the house, the sound of his mother-in-law scolding him was heard, deliberately lowering her voice. The elevator slowly went down. I looked at myself in the mirror. The back remains straight. Shoulders remain straight. Only the hand... Is shaking. I tightened my grip on the bag strap. Don't step back. In the afternoon, return to the company. I had two meetings. Edit three versions of the plan.
