After much consideration, Mother Liu came up with the idea of getting Liu Wu to divorce Jiujiu.
After all, in Mother Liu's opinion, Jiujiu was already lucky enough to be able to marry Liu Wu.
Now that Jiujiu refused to lead a good life, she actually dared to threaten Mother Liu and Liu Wu. She really didn't want to live anymore.
Mother Liu didn't like Jiujiu to begin with. Since she didn't want to lead a good life, Mother Liu might as well get a divorce.
Mother Liu still had some money in her hands. It wouldn't be too difficult for her to find a new wife for Liu Wu.
Moreover, when Mother Liu got a new wife, she could give birth to a second child for Liu Wu. Mother Liu might even have grandchildren by then. It was perfect.
Mother Liu looked at Liu Wu, who was crestfallen because of Jiujiu's departure. She lifted her leg and said angrily, "What are you going to do about Li Xin?"
Liu Wu said, "Mom, why don't we get some money for Li Xin's brother?"
He and Li Xin had been together for so many years. They wouldn't fall out over such a small matter.
When Mother Liu heard that Liu Wu wanted to give Jiujiu money, Mother Liu's face instantly darkened. She lifted her hand and slapped him. She said angrily, "You good-for-nothing."
Liu Wu covered the side of his face in confusion when he was suddenly slapped. He looked at Mother Liu in confusion. He didn't seem to understand why he was slapped.
Mother Liu sneered. "When you said that you wanted to marry Li Xin, I didn't want to. Now, she's asking for a hundred thousand yuan. If you give her the money now, she'll ask for it in the future. Are you going to give it to her?"
Liu Wu stuttered and couldn't say a word.
If he didn't give her the money a second time, Li Xin would definitely make a bigger fuss. When that happened, it wouldn't be as simple as leaving the house.
Mother Liu glanced at Liu Wu when she saw that he was stuttering and didn't say a word. She continued, "My silly son, don't you understand?
Li Xin's heart has always been with her family. Now that you've given her a hundred thousand yuan, her family will definitely come to you if they need money in the future. "
Liu Wu: "…"
When he first got married to Li Xin, he was already unwilling to give her the two hundred thousand she wanted. Now that he heard Mother Liu say that Li Xin's family was in need of money and even came to him, he instantly wanted to back out.
Seeing that Liu Wu didn't continue to talk about money, Mother Liu spoke her thoughts. "Son, if you ask me, you and Li Xin should just divorce."
Liu Wu was stunned. He raised his head and stared blankly at Mother Liu, as if he didn't understand why she would say such a thing.
"You've been married to Li Xin for so long. Haven't you realized that Li Xin is the sister-supporting demon that those people outside are talking about? In her heart, her brother is much more important than you. Her brother needs money to buy a house now, and he will definitely need money to get married in the future. When he gives birth, he will also need money. Which one of these doesn't need money? Even if you don't give it to her now, it will happen sooner or later. Instead of waiting for her to cut your flesh with a knife, you might as well cut the Gordian knot and divorce Li Xin. "
Liu Wu said, "Mom, how can you say that about Xiao Xin?"
Even though he vaguely felt that Mother Liu was right, he and Li Xin had been together for so many years. How could he be so heartless as to divorce her?
Moreover, Li Xin gave birth to Liu Ai for him. If he really divorced Li Xin over such a trivial matter, he would be inhumane.
"Why can't I say that about her? It's not like you didn't see how she treated me just now. I can still move now, and she treated me like this. When I'm old and can't move anymore, she'll probably throw me out by my legs. "
Liu Wu said, "… Li Xin isn't that kind of person."
Mother Liu said, "Why isn't she? She can't wait to kill me and drink my blood and eat my flesh."
Liu Wu knew that Mother Liu hated Li Xin, so he could only choose to remain silent.
Liu Wu's silence made Mother Liu even more agitated. She said, "Son, it's not that I'm being nosy. That Li Xin isn't someone who knows how to live a good life. When you were about to marry her, she asked for 200,000 yuan. Tell me, we just bought a house. Where would we get 200,000 yuan from? If she really likes you as much as she says, would she be willing to make things difficult for us?"
Liu Wu's lips moved as he defended Li Xin. "Li Xin's betrothal gift was a little high."
"A little high?" Mother Liu sneered. "The betrothal gifts of the girls in the city aren't as high as Li Xin's."
Liu Wu said, "Didn't she ask for 100,000 yuan in the end?"
"She only asked for 100,000 yuan? Isn't that because she's pregnant? If she wasn't pregnant, she would be happier than anyone else. Why would she marry into our family for just 100,000 yuan? "
Liu Wu said, "Mom, I'm already married to Li Xin. These things are in the past. Just let him go."
"Let him go? Dream on. "
Mother Liu said with a gloomy expression. "Back then, in order to get that 100,000 yuan, I suffered so much and had to endure so many supercilious looks. You just casually asked him to go, and he really went? Wouldn't I have suffered in vain? "
Liu Wu was speechless.
Seeing that Liu Wu did not say anything, Mother Liu continued to complain. "Other people's daughters-in-law are obedient and serve their mothers-in-law, but Li Xin is different. She's clearly from the countryside, but she's even more pampered than the girls in the city. She doesn't know how to cook or wash clothes, and she doesn't even know how to change the baby's diapers after giving birth. Moreover, she's clearly a girl, but she treats her like a queen. Whether it's milk powder or diapers, she uses the best. What? Can she raise a phoenix with the best? "
At this point, Mother Liu's eyes instantly turned red. She seemed to have thought of all the suffering she had suffered. She wiped her tears and said to Liu Wu, "I just want to hold a grandson. What's wrong with that? Does Li Xin have to treat me like that? I'm her mother-in-law, an elder, and she treats me like this. I can still move now, but she treats me like this. When I'm older, I won't dare to let her serve me. I'll just hang myself with a rope. "
Liu Wu said in a heavier tone, "Mom."
"What are you shouting for? If you want Li Xin to come back, then come back. If you want to go out with her, then go out. Anyway, I just have one sentence. I don't have money, and I won't give her a single cent."
After Mother Liu finished speaking, her tears fell like beads from a broken necklace. Liu Wu, who was watching, instantly fell silent.
Although he had been with Li Xin for more than eight years, his relationship with Mother Liu was even deeper. Now that Mother Liu was crying like this, he instantly did not dare to talk about his relationship with Li Xin.
Mother Liu buried her head and cried for a long time. Her eyes were swollen, and her pitiful appearance made people's hearts ache.
Liu Wu looked at Mother Liu's appearance and was even more reluctant to ask Mother Liu to give him money to coax Jiujiu back.
When Mother Liu saw that Liu Wu did not ask for money from her, she knew that Liu Wu's heart had softened.
Mother Liu picked up a tissue to wipe her eyes and asked Liu Wu in a sobbing voice, "When are you going to divorce Li Xin?"
