When Yi Zhonghai heard that Li Guilan was going to go through the official procedures, he said angrily, "Well, let's see what kind of law it is. It's really unrealistic to give you the money I worked so hard to earn. Go and do the formalities tomorrow, and you will get out of my house."

"Yes, I will leave tomorrow. From now on, you should support your Jia family well." Li Guilan was also disheartened. After waiting for so many years, she still couldn't resist Yi Zhonghai's intention of finding someone to take care of her in her old age. Even if Jia Dongxu died, it wouldn't work, so he set his sights on Qin Huairu.

After Li Guilan finished speaking, she got up and went into the house, cleared out all her things, wrapped them in a package and put them aside. Then she sat on the edge of the bed, touching her face that had just been beaten, and tears began to flow.

Yi Zhonghai was sitting outside, also at a loss. How could it turn out like this? I have been nice to the Jia family for a long time. Isn't it because we don't have children? And it's for the sake of our future lives? Jia Dongxu is dead, but his wife and children are still alive. I have money and a house, but I'm still worried that they won't treat me well.

Yes, it was the He family and Jiang Feng. If it weren’t for them, how could this courtyard become like this? If they had listened to me at that time, I would have arranged for them to take care of the Jia family, then maybe Jia Dongxu would not have died.

These people have no idea of ​​respecting the elderly and the young or helping each other. They only care about themselves. They are a group of selfish people. And the people in the yard, for so many years, I have been conscientiously acting as a big boss, but I didn't expect that when I came down, no one would say a good word.

Thinking of this, Yi Zhonghai threw the enamel pot next to him to the ground. A series of "clang clang clang" sounds rang out in the room. Yi Zhonghai sat there and had no intention to pick it up, and also forgot to go to the Jia family to discuss tomorrow's matters.

Jiang Feng didn't know that the seeds he planted had finally grown into towering trees, and Jia Dongxu's death was the fertilizer that precipitated their growth. That night, Li Guilan recalled some of the words that Jiang Feng and He Yushui had said at that time in the house, and came to the He family alone.

He Yuzhu and Li Xiaoyan were both there. They were also surprised to see Li Guilan coming. She basically stayed in the yard to talk and play with the children, and had never come to their house alone.

He Yuzhu stood up and asked Li Guilan to sit down. Li Guilan told He Yuzhu the purpose of their visit, what happened tonight. He Yuzhu was confused, but he didn't know much about the divorce either. He said, "I'll go call Xiaofeng over," and turned and ran out.

After a while, He Yuzhu came in with Jiang Feng. Jiang Feng also felt pleasantly surprised. He had already given up hope, but he didn't expect the reversal to happen here. It would take until an important turning point in the plot to trigger some conflicts.

After entering the room, Jiang Feng saw Li Guilan sitting there. He stepped forward and shouted, "Auntie, what's going on this time?"

Li Guilan was silent for a moment, then told Jiang Feng and He Yuzhu what happened that night. She also said that she wanted a divorce, but she didn't know how to deal with it, so she wanted to ask Zhuzi.

Jiang Feng thought for a while and said, "You told Yi Zhonghai that you want a divorce, and he just needs to agree. According to the laws after the founding of the People's Republic of China, both of you have contributed to the family. Unless there are some special reasons, the family property is generally divided equally.

Don't believe what people say, that women don't earn money, so why should they share the family property? However, divorces still need mediation. What is your reason?"

Li Guilan fell silent, looked at the others, blushed, and said to Jiang Feng, "I checked and found that he is infertile. He has lied to me for so many years. Is this an excuse?"

After hearing what Li Guilan said, except for Jiang Feng who had some confidence, He Yuzhu and Li Xiaoyan opened their eyes wide with disbelief on their faces.

Jiang Feng pondered for a moment and said, "This reason is enough, but I suggest that you negotiate with him tomorrow. If he is willing to give you a corresponding amount of property, you can agree to a divorce without giving the reason. If he disagrees, then go directly to the street office to apply, and let the street office decide on the division of property."

"Xiao Feng, is this enough? What if he doesn't want to divide the property?"

"That's not up to him. If the facts are clear and the neighborhood office agrees to the divorce, if he dares to disagree, he can go to the Women's Federation. He has been deceiving his feelings for decades, and now he has been discovered and still refuses to comply. The Women's Federation may make an example of him, and his work in the factory will also be affected."

Li Guilan nodded thoughtfully. He Yuzhu asked, "Aunt Li, if you get divorced, where will you live in the future? Can you get a share of his house?"

After hearing this, Li Guilan also began to consider it, and Jiang Feng interrupted and said, "You can divide it. Your family has exactly two rooms, so you can take the smaller one, but I don't recommend that you take the house;

You can give up the division of the property and let him pay more money. It is better to rent a house outside, or buy one. Otherwise, it is not pleasant to live in the courtyard and see each other every day. "

"Yes, let's do it this way. We can move out and rent a house first, and then buy one later. Xiaofeng, Zhuzi, thank you so much. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't know all this."

Jiang Feng continued, "Go back and discuss it with Yi Zhonghai, but it's best to discuss it tomorrow. If the discussion fails, go directly to the street office. It's best to rent a house through the street office first, and then talk slowly after moving out."

After hearing what Jiang Feng said, Li Guilan frowned and thought for a while, then nodded, stood up and thanked several people again, and also reminded them that if they could sign the agreement, please keep it confidential for me and don't tell anyone about it.

Jiang Feng and He Yuzhu both agreed. Anyway, as long as they got divorced, Yi Zhonghai's affairs would be exposed sooner or later, and they couldn't keep it secret for long.

Seeing that everyone agreed, Li Guilan turned around and walked out of the house. He Yuzhu quickly stood up and walked out the door. After returning to the house, he said to Jiang Feng, "Xiaofeng, what did you mean by your last words? Why did you want Aunt Li to move out first?"

"How much savings do you think Yi Zhonghai should have after all these years?" Jiang Feng asked instead of answering.

"Over the years, there haven't been any major expenses. I think there are still 6,000 or 7,000 yuan. His salary is about 700 or 800 yuan a year. I haven't heard of any major expenses in all the years he's been working."

"Almost the same, but it was downgraded a few years ago, so the difference is not that big. Just think about it, if Aunt Li wants to take half of it, what will Yi Zhonghai do?"

"You said he would harm people, but that's not the case. If he were to be found out, wouldn't everything be gone?"

"Money can make people's hearts flutter. You have to remember that you should be on guard against others. It's always right to be more careful."

Li Xiaoyan interjected, "Yes, Zhuzi, it's right to listen to Xiaofeng. Be more careful. We don't want to harm others, but we have to be on guard against others harming us."

He Yuzhu nodded. Seeing that it was getting late, Jiang Feng said something and went back to the room. He Yuzhu talked to Li Xiaoyan for a while, and then they both took a shower and went to bed.

After Jiang Feng returned to the house, Zhao Xuelin also pulled him aside to ask about it. Jiang Feng told her what had just happened again. However, Zhao Xuelin had not been in the yard for long and did not know Yi Zhonghai and Li Guilan, so she did not say anything. The two of them did not say a few words before being pulled to bed. It was still warm under the quilt.

Early the next morning, Jiang Feng and He Yuzhu went to work, and Li Guilan went to the street office alone. Yi Zhonghai said he would come back to talk at noon, but Li Guilan still wanted to go and find out.

When she arrived at the street office, she found the office that specifically handles divorces. There was also a big sister sitting inside. Li Guilan came here just to consult how the family property should be divided if a housewife like her wanted to get a divorce.

Sister Zhang was also enthusiastic. These people were all members of the Women's Federation. Usually, women suffered in divorces and were often beaten or scolded. She held Li Guilan's hand and asked for a long time. When she heard that there was no beating or scolding, she began to mediate.

However, Li Guilan's question was still answered. If both parties are not at fault, housewives can also share the property. After all, without women at home to take care of the elderly and children, can men work outside with peace of mind? The street office will divide the property based on the actual situation and the issue of supporting the elderly and children.

Hearing that it could be divided, Li Guilan felt relieved. She asked what specific information was needed for the procedure and then left the street office and returned to the courtyard.

Someone also came to the Siheyuan. The leaders of the steel rolling mill worked overtime last night to discuss Jia Dongxu's matter. According to Zhang Jiacheng's investigation, there was no problem with the machinery. It was due to carelessness in the operation. The workpiece was not fixed properly, and the workpiece flew out when the machine was turned on, injuring Jia Dongxu.

But Director Hou also told the hospital about the situation yesterday. There are only orphans and a widow left at home. There are two women with two children and another one in the belly. They also said that the family has no money to hold a funeral and are still thinking about applying.

The leaders of the factory were also helpless. If such a family did not receive any subsidies, it would be a disaster. After the consent of several leaders of the factory, they decided to provide compensation according to the work injury standard, and also retained his work position in the factory, and let his family arrange someone to come to work.

After the decision was made, the matter was assigned to Deputy Director Zhang. Director Yang also asked Secretary Li to follow and handle the matter together. At 9 o'clock in the morning, the two arrived at the courtyard. It was still the third aunt who led the way to the gate of the Jia family.

When Jia Zhang and Qin Huairu heard that the person was from the steel rolling mill, they quickly invited him in. Deputy Director Zhang and Secretary Li had heard Director Hou talk about what happened at the hospital yesterday, so they were on guard from the moment they entered the room. Although it was normal compensation, they felt that this man was not a reasonable person.

After entering the room, Deputy Director Zhang first explained the situation and clearly stated the cause of the accident. Taking into account the actual difficulties of the Jia family, the factory still treated it as a work-related injury and offered a one-time compensation of 380 yuan. Before he could finish his words, Jia Zhang jumped up.

Deputy Director Zhang and Secretary Li saw something was wrong and immediately stood up and backed away. Before Jia Zhang could use her ultimate move, they saw the two people in front of them retreat to the door. Deputy Director Zhang said sternly, "Jia Zhang, what do you want to do? Why don't you listen to what I'm saying?"
