Chapter 6 : Wife's Attitude

• On the other side.
• The taxi arrived at a shantytown in Jiangnan. Due to his mother's long-term chemotherapy, the 80-square-meter house had been sold long ago to cover the medical expenses.
• Now, his mother Chen Yihong and younger sister Yue Wanyu could only squeeze into this small courtyard house, which was shared by three neighboring families, with less than ten square meters of living space.
• Yue Bufan looked at the surroundings and felt uneasy.
• It had been a while since he last came home, and he didn't expect his mother and sister to be living in such difficult conditions.
• Usually, his sister always shared good news and kept the worries to herself.
• But the more she did this, the more uneasy Yue Bufan felt, and the more he felt indebted.
• He vowed to make his mother and sister live a good life and never let them suffer again.
• Yue Bufan put his mother on the bed and went out to buy some Chinese medicine and medicine jars for her. He used a small sand pot to boil the medicine in the courtyard.
• His mother had not woken up yet, but her condition had stabilized a lot. According to Yue Bufan's prescription, after taking three doses of medicine and resting for a while, she would be completely cured.
• While Yue Bufan was boiling the medicine, his sister Yue Wanyu watched him from the side.
• After a while, Yue Wanyu asked him, "Brother, did you have a fight with your wife?"
• Yue Bufan was taken aback, smiled slightly, and said, "No, what are you thinking, you silly girl? Your sister-in-law and I have a good relationship."
• Yue Wanyu pouted and said, "Brother, you don't have to lie to me. I know that when Mom got sick, you must have asked your wife's parents for money, and they definitely didn't lend it to you."
• "Brother, don't let me and Mom cause any conflicts between you and your wife. We won't drag you down. Mom and I both hope you and your wife will be happy."
• Yue Bufan felt a pang of sadness.
• His sister was so young yet so sensible. She had really endured too much.
• In fact, he also wanted to have a good relationship with Wu Mengqi.
• After all, five years of marriage couldn't be easily broken.
• But when faced with the need for 200,000 yuan for his mother's surgery, the attitude of Wu's family really made him feel disheartened. Even his wife, Wu Mengqi, did not clearly say whether she would lend him the money for medical expenses.
• Wasn't five years of marriage worth 200,000 yuan?
• Yue Bufan really wanted to ask Wu Mengqi this question.
• He wanted to know why Wu Mengqi didn't answer his calls and what her attitude towards him was.
• Should they continue their relationship or go their separate ways?
• Yue Bufan suddenly stood up and said, "Wanyu, the medicinal soup will be ready soon. You can feed it to Mom later. I have something to do and need to go home first."
• Yue Wanyu knew that her brother must have had a conflict with his wife because of their mother's situation. She nodded understandingly and said, "Okay, go ahead. Mom has me to take care of her. Brother, no matter what, I hope you and your wife will be happy. She is a good girl."
• "Yeah, I know."
• Yue Bufan nodded and left the courtyard.
• ............
• At the entrance of Wu's house.
• Yue Bufan took a taxi back but forgot to bring the house key.
• He was about to knock on the door when he heard the voices of his mother-in-law and wife talking inside the house.
• First, it was the voice of his mother-in-law, Qiu Dantong.
• "Mengqi, just listen to your mother's advice. Don't follow that useless Yue Bufan. He will never amount to anything in his life."
• "Today, he went to the family to borrow money, and he embarrassed our family. Your grandfather even took back ten percent of our shares in anger."
• "Listen to your mother, divorce him. I will definitely find you a better and more successful man than him. Anyone is better than this useless man who only knows how to cook and do housework."
• Yue Bufan listened to this speech and couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart.
• Divorce.
• Useless.
• Worthless.
• These words were not the first time Yue Bufan had heard them, but every time he heard them, he couldn't help but feel heartbroken.
• Was he really so unbearable in his mother-in-law's eyes? Couldn't they see all the efforts he had made over the years?
• Yue Bufan held back his emotions. He didn't care about his mother-in-law's opinion of him; he only cared about Wu Mengqi's attitude.
• Yue Bufan continued to listen.
• "Mom, please stop talking. I'm tired of it!" Wu Mengqi's tone sounded impatient.
• Qiu Dantong couldn't help but grit her teeth and said, "You, this girl, why don't you listen? What's good about that useless man? He can't do anything and relies on you for support."
• "And what's the situation in his family? He has a younger sister in school and a sick mother. The sick one needs 200,000 yuan for medical expenses."
• "Is he worth 200,000 yuan? He's not even worth selling. Why are you so stubborn?"
• Yue Bufan clenched his fist and gritted his teeth.
• He couldn't stand anyone talking about his sister and mother like this.
• "Snap~"
• Suddenly, the door was pushed open by Yue Bufan.
• It turned out that the door wasn't locked.
• Yue Bufan walked in with a stern face!
• Qiu Dantong and Wu Mengqi on the sofa looked over, but Wu Mengqi quickly turned her face coldly to the side.
• This small detail made Yue Bufan feel extremely heartbroken.
• So, even my presence disgusts you?
• "You useless man, where have you been? Do you know that you have a home to come back to?" Before Yue Bufan could catch his breath, Qiu Dantong started cursing at him directly.
• "And go to the kitchen to wash the dishes we ate today, wash the clothes, and mop the floor. Don't you know what your job is? Not only are you useless, but your brain is also useless."
• Yue Bufan clenched his fist slightly. "Mom, you can say whatever you want about me, but please don't talk about my family."
• "Oh?"
• Qiu Dantong raised her eyebrows when she heard this and sneered, "What, were you eavesdropping on our conversation? So you heard everything I said just now, that's great. You and our Mengqi should get a divorce. How can a useless man like you deserve her? You're just holding her back."
• Yue Bufan's body trembled, and he looked at Wu Mengqi.
• Wu Mengqi got up impatiently and walked into the bedroom.
• Yue Bufan felt infinitely desolate in his heart.
• Not refuting the idea of divorce meant that she agreed, right?
• It was ridiculous, truly ridiculous. It turned out that for these five years, Yue Bufan had been deluding himself by marrying into the Wu family.
• All along, Yue Bufan had relied on Wu Mengqi's determination to hold on.
• But now, did Wu Mengqi also agree?
• Qiu Dantong was very satisfied with her daughter's attitude and smirked as she looked at Yue Bufan with folded arms. "Hehe, accept reality. Mengqi is probably in the bedroom drafting the divorce agreement. You just have to obediently sign it when the time comes!"
• Yue Bufan gritted his teeth.
• He looked at the bedroom door with burning eyes. Did Wu Mengqi really go in to draft the divorce agreement?
• Yue Bufan really wanted to know Wu Mengqi's attitude. If it was true, then let this five-year marriage end!
• With questions in his heart, Yue Bufan also walked into the bedroom and closed the door behind him.
• In the living room, Qiu Dantong sneered with folded arms!
