Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation   Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Without waiting for Grandpa Du to speak, Du Shanqiang said, “Sanfu won’t let me work the shop anymore. Judging from Daxi’s intentions, she and Hongguo won’t work in the shop anymore as well. They’ll just stay at home and do nothing.”

“They’re rebelling?!” Grandma Du immediately shouted. “It’s fine if she does it, but Hongguo too? I’ll skin her alive!”

“Yes, as you should!” Grandpa Du was starting to get annoyed. He thought for a moment and said, “Shanqiang, don’t worry too much. Daxi is just overwhelmed with anger. As long as you don’t agree to the divorce, just wait for her anger to subside. You don’t have to worry too much about the work. Her family won’t ignore her. Sooner or later, you’ll be able to return to the shop to work. When she calms down, she will definitely bring Hongguo back to the shop to work.”

“But Father,” Du Shanqiang was not as optimistic as his father, “Daxi told her family to just treat us as good as dead. She also said that even if she starved to death in our house, she wouldn’t let Sihu allow me to work in the shop anymore.”

Grandpa Du did not take it seriously at all. “l already said that she must have said that because she was angry. Who wouldn’t say ridiculous things when they’re angry. No matter what, you can’t divorce her. Our family is like this. Her family is living so well. Without her family’s help, our family will be the same as before. We might not even be able to eat a piece of meat all year round.’

“Yes,” Grandma Du also said, “Shanqiang, don’t worry. Her family won’t leave her alone. As long as she’s still in this family, we don’t have to worry about anything.”

“But… l…” Du Shanqiang stammered, “I actually agreed to the divorce, but she wanted Hongguo to leave with her. That’s why I didn’t agree and she came back with me.’

“Are you st*pid? You agreed?” Grandpa Du and Grandma Du cursed. “How shameless is she? She still wants to leave this house with Hongguo! In the future, when Hongguo is married off, we can still get a betrothal gift. How can we let her leave this house for nothing? In her dreams!”

“But… But…” Du Shanqiangs face turned red. “What about the things we did…”

When Grandma Du heard this, she immediately exploded with anger and shouted, “Aren’t we conscientious enough? She’s been in our family for so many years, but she didn’t give birth to a son for you. We didn’t make you divorce her because of that!”

“The in-laws are too much.” Grandpa Du was also very angry. Then, he said, “However, Shanqiang, you should coax your wife more. This way, her anger will pass quickly, and you can return to the shop to work and earn money. If it really doesn’t work, you can tell her that when Erniu gives birth to a son for you, you can chase her away.”

He Erniu was the concubine that Grandpa Du and Grandma Du had bought for Du Shanqiang.

Coincidentally, Erniu came back from a visit. When she heard this, she immediately froze in the courtyard and did not enter the main room.

“Father, that doesn’t sound like a good plan…” Du Shanqiang felt uneasy. If Erniu gave birth to a son for him, then Erniu’s contribution to his family would be considered astronomical. No matter what, he could not chase Erniu away.

“What’s not good about it? We bought her in the first place! Alright, alright.” Grandpa Du was getting impatient. “Anyway, you must keep your wife in check. You must never divorce her.. Otherwise, your mother and I will not forgive you!’
