Chapter 186 Late Divorce Letter

Xiuying asked incomprehension: "You can't read at all, what's there to see?"

That's right, although He Hua's father is a "scholar", He Hua is an out-and-out illiterate, and no one taught her to read and write at all.

Ran Yue said coquettishly: "I want to see it even if I can't read. After all, it belongs to my father."

Xiuying was so entangled by Ran Yue that she had no choice but to say: "Okay, okay, let me tell you, the letters written by your father are buried at the bottom of the box. In fact, all of us are illiterate, and he wrote We didn't know what was written even though it was sent. In our village, Li Zheng and his son are the only ones who know how to read. When your father wrote the letter for the first time, your grandfather shamelessly asked Li Zheng to read the letter, which cost him a salted fish. After that, when your father sends you letters again, we won’t be willing to spend anything to ask Li Zheng to read them, since they are all letters to report that you are safe anyway."

Ran Yue opened the tattered box according to Xiuying's instructions, and there were some old clothes in the box. She rummaged through it and found a stack of neatly stacked letters at the bottom, which were already very old. Old but well kept.

There were more than ten letters, and Ran Yue put the letters on the table one by one, and opened them carefully.

Xiuying said quickly: "Lotus, be gentle, don't damage the letter your father handed over."

Ran Yue said without turning her head: "I know, I just have a look, and I'll pretend later."

The first few letters were all reporting safety. Only then did Ran Yue learn that Hehua's father's name was Zhao Debao. Zhao Debao worked as a clerk in a business in Jiangcheng. Because of his diligence and literacy, he was promoted to accountant, and he gradually became richer. , the letter also mentioned that he was saving money to buy an apartment in Jiangcheng and then take his family there.

Seeing this, Ran Yue's impression of Zhao Debao is still good.

When he turned to the third letter from the bottom, Zhao Debao said that there was no way out to be a bookkeeper, and he was going to go out to run a business, seeking wealth and insurance, but he was worried about his family, so he handed over the money he had saved over the years to the person who brought the letter My friend Zhou Xiaohu.

In the penultimate letter, Zhao Debao said that he had an accident on his way to business and almost died, but was saved by a beautiful lady. He was going to do things with this lady. He praised the lady in the letter. The young lady's beauty and kindness are full of hope for the future.

Ran Yue opened the last letter, and it turned out to be a letter of divorce!
Zhao Debao decided to marry the lady who saved him, so he had to divorce his original wife.And after marriage, he will go to other places with his father-in-law's family and is not going to come back.He also knew that Xiuying had been sold by her family and had no place to go, so he left behind the 100 taels of bank notes, the divorce letter, and the letter to his parents, hoping that Xiuying could continue to stay and take care of the elderly couple. There are lotus.

"Bang!" Ran Yue's thin fist hit the table, and the table that was already crumbling almost fell apart. Fortunately, she didn't use any strength and just punched it in an ordinary way.

"Lotus, what's the matter?" Xiuying staggered out of bed, looked at Ran Yue with concern, and raised her hand to see if her hand was injured.

Thinking of the family's hard work waiting, and thinking of Xiuying, who had not forgotten her husband in the midst of poverty and illness, Ran Yue really felt that it was not worth it. Waiting for someone to come back.

Ran Yue suppressed the anger in her heart and said with a smile: "I just saw an insect and I was going to fight it, but I ended up using too much strength."

Xiuying caressed Ran Yue's face with rough fingers, she looked at Ran Yue, and said emotionally: "That's good, that's good, lotus, you don't know when your father will come back, mother will leave you alone, You must be fine."

Ran Yue nodded, showing a cute smile, "Mother, don't worry, I will be fine. By the way, Mother, besides letters, has my father brought anything else over the years?"

Xiuying recalled: "Of course there is. Your father asked a friend to bring back cotton cloth, pork, salt, sugar... a lot of things."

Ran Yue asked: "What about the money, did my father ask someone to bring the money?"

Xiuying thought for a while, and finally shook her head, and said, "No, your father works very hard in Jiangcheng, and the city spends a lot of money, so it would be nice if he could bring us some food and clothing. .”

Seeing the poor woman who was still thinking about Zhao Debao until now, and thinking of Zhao Debao's shameless face in the letter, Ran Yue wished to find out her nominal father, slapped him hundreds of times, and forced him to be in Xiuying. Kowtow in front of him to admit his mistake.

Ran Yue pretended to be curious and asked: "Mother, who sent these letters and things. Does he send them to you or to grandparents every time?"

Of course Xiuying didn't know what Ran Yue was thinking, she touched Ran Yue's little head, and said with a smile: "You little girl, what do you want to know?"

Ran Yue showed a sweet smile, and said coquettishly: "I just want to know, I haven't met my father, so I just want to know anything related to him."

Seeing her daughter's smile, Xiuying was also very happy. She smiled and said, "You, I never cared about your father before, why do you think about it today? Every time the person who gave something to your father is a friend of his, His surname is Zhou. I heard that he is begging for life in the county. He hasn’t come to our village for a long time, so I don’t know if he is still in the county, and I don’t know if he knows about your father. Sometimes your father’s things are handed over Give it to me, sometimes to your grandfather, sometimes to your grandmother, depending on who's at home."

That's right, the person who delivered the letter was Zhou Xiaohu, whom Zhao Debao mentioned in his letter. He always only delivered letters and things, and never left any money. If he had that money, the life of the Hehua family should be easier. Well, her grandparents who have never met will not be starved to death.

Moreover, Zhao Debao's letters and things were all sent by Zhou Xiaohu, which at least meant that they were familiar with each other. Maybe Zhou Xiaohu knew Zhao Debao's whereabouts.

After remembering the name Zhou Xiaohu in her heart, Ran Yue persuaded Xiuying to go back to bed and rest. While she was packing the dishes, she was thinking about how to reasonably help the family tide over the difficulties.

Just as Ran Yue was washing dishes and pots in the yard, she suddenly heard someone shouting: "Lotus, lotus!"

When he looked up, Zhu Zhu who had left had returned at some point. He was leaning on the wall, secretly looking at Ran Yue.

Ran Yue waved to this temporary friend, "What's the matter? Come down and talk about it!"

Zhuzi jumped into the yard at once, and as soon as he got down, he said to Ran Yue: "Lotus, you know that Lijia Village next door is actually developed!"
