Chapter 358 Divorce Success
Tong Pandidi kept calling Wu Ren, which made Wu Ren embarrassed.
The clan leader's face was also unhappy.
The clan leader said, "All daughters-in-law in every family have suffered this way. Don't worry, as long as you stay in the Wu family, I will take care of it for you. They will definitely not treat you like this in the future. When you give birth to a son, I will make the decision to let you separate."
Tong Huaqiong was unhappy. She said, "Patriarch, you are really interesting. Every daughter-in-law has suffered this way. You still have the nerve to say this. No wonder Wu Ren treats his daughter-in-law like this. It turns out that your Wu family has an old tradition. If the upper beam is not straight, the lower beam will be crooked. Don't talk nonsense. We are here today to let Pan Di get the divorce letter, not to argue with you Wu family members."
The clan leader said angrily, "How dare you, an outsider, butt in on what the Wu family is saying."
Tong Huaqiong said, "I am a county lady appointed by the emperor himself. You didn't say anything until I bowed, but now you say I shouldn't interrupt. How can you talk to a county lady like this? Lord Jiao, what do you think about this?"
Jiao Yayi was sweating profusely. He bowed to Tong Huaqiong and said to the head of the Wu family, "You are not allowed to be rude to the township master."
Originally, Jiao Yayi still wanted to keep the marriage intact, but County Magistrate Liu reprimanded him, saying that since the Wu family treated the township lady's niece badly, they should just divorce, and it had nothing to do with him, and they would not move to his house after the divorce, so he should listen to Tong Huaqiong on this matter.
The head of the Wu family was extremely angry, but Tong Huaqiong used the title of the county lady to pressure him, so he could do nothing.
"I don't agree to divorce."
"I will never divorce you even if I die."
"Unless you let me write a divorce letter, no, I won't write one. Tong Pandi is still a member of the Wu family, no matter how dead he is."
Wu Musheng stood up and stared at Tong Pandidi with a fierce look.
He thought about it all night and decided that he would never let Tong Pandi go easily. If he divorced her, she would run away from the Wu family.
He wanted to keep Tong Panddi in the Wu family and torture her slowly.
Tong Huaqiong said: "This is not up to you."
In the stalemate, Master Su stood up and said, "I have a few words to say to the clan leader in private."
Tong Huaqiong and others went out. About two cups of tea later, the door of the ancestral hall opened and Master Su and the clan leader came out.
"The clan allows Tong and Musheng to divorce today, and they have nothing to do with each other's marriage in the future." After the clan leader came out, he said to Wu Ren and Wu Musheng, father and son, without looking at Tong Pandi.
This means that the Wu family clan agreed to Tong Pandidi's divorce.
Tong Huaqiong couldn't help but glance at Master Su.
He is quite capable and was able to convince the head of the Wu family to agree to a divorce.
Qiao from the Wu family was the first to react. She jumped up and cursed, "Patriarch, why did you agree to a divorce on behalf of my Mu Sheng? Tong Pandi is my family's member in life and my family's ghost in death. Without my Mu Sheng's consent, she can't leave the Wu family."
"Master, say something. You are the head of the village." Qiao pushed Wu Ren beside her.
Wu Ren's face looked unhappy. Even though he was the head of the village, he couldn't handle the whole clan.
The clan leader said to Qiao: "What do you know as a woman? You have no right to interfere in the clan's decisions."
Qiao clenched her handkerchief in anger.
The clan leader went on to say, "Also, let Tong take the two girls away. It won't be a pity if they don't have sons. Mu Sheng, a real man never has to worry about not having a wife. Just marry another one tomorrow, one who can give birth to a son."
Wu Musheng would marry her even without the clan leader saying anything. Even if Tong Pandidi didn't want to divorce him, he would still marry a woman who could give birth to a son.
But that must be his active choice, not a choice forced upon him by Tong Pandi's "divorce".
In front of everyone, Wu Musheng felt that Tong Pandidi had lost all his face.
Originally the clan leader stood on his side, but after conspiring with Master Su for a while, he changed his mind.
What does the matter between him and Tong Pandidi have to do with Master Su?
It is really necessary for a teacher like him to choose not to teach and get involved in divorce.
Master Su is Gu Jingzhe's teacher. During the month that Tong Pandi has been in Gu's house, could it be possible that he and Master Su have had some shameful relationship?
Wu Musheng pointed at Master Su and said, "Whether Tong Pandi and I are divorced or not, what does it have to do with Master Su? It's not clear that our Wu family has any dealings with Master Su. It must be that Tong Shi and Master Su had an affair in Yanguan Town, otherwise why would Master Su get involved in such a thing. Tong Pandi, you whore, you are still the daughter-in-law of the Wu family and you do such a seductive thing."
"Shut up!"
"presumptuous!"
Gu Jingzhe and the head of the Wu family shouted and cursed in unison.
Master Su was so angry that he pointed at Wu Musheng and cursed, "How dare you! As a son, you didn't persuade your parents when they treated their daughter-in-law harshly. This is unfilial. As a husband, you spent your time drinking and partying and going to romantic places. This is unfaithful. As a father, you didn't protect your daughter well. I also taught you for two years, but you slandered me. This is disrespectful to your teacher. As a citizen, you didn't follow the divorce agreement. This is contempt for the law. People like you who are unfaithful, unfilial, and unrighteous are wasting food. If I were you, I would just buy a piece of tofu and kill myself."
Tong Huaqiong stroked his forehead and sighed, he was indeed a scholar, when he scolded people he didn't even use a single dirty word, but every word was deeply hurtful.
"And you, Wu Ren, as Wu Musheng's father, you didn't discipline your son and raised such a scum. You are unworthy of being a father. As the saying goes, if the top beam is not straight, the bottom beam will be crooked. No wonder Wu Musheng has such a bad character and a white mouth and slanders. Tong Shi doesn't want to be your daughter-in-law. That's because you are not human. A family of beasts doesn't deserve a daughter-in-law, nor does it deserve descendants."
Master Su then started scolding Wu Ren.
Wu Ren, a village head, was scolded so badly that he could hardly raise his head.
The crowd watching at Heilongtan just felt that the scolding was a good thing.
If it was just Tong Pandi and the Wu family, there would be people taking sides among the onlookers.
But when it comes to Master Su and the Wu family, most people tend to stand on Master Su's side.
After all, Master Su was the teacher with the best reputation in Yanguan Town and Heilongtan area, and many parents of Heilongtan students were willing to send their children to study in Yanguan Town.
Many people in Heilongtan regarded Master Su as their hope for changing their family's status.
Since even Master Su supports divorce, it must be right.
Now Master Su was slandered by Wu Musheng in public, and everyone was furious. They accused Wu Musheng of slandering others, Wu Ren of not educating his children well, and the head of the Wu family of failing to discipline his children...
"Musheng, go to the ancestral hall and kneel down." The clan leader was provoked by the angry crowd. He scolded Wu Musheng and finally asked two clan members to take Wu Musheng to the ancestral hall.
Tong Huaqiong stopped the head of the Wu family and said, "Sign the divorce agreement first and then kneel down."
The head of the Wu family was so angry that he forgot to ask Wu Musheng to sign the divorce agreement.
Gu Jingzhe brought up the divorce agreement that had already been written, and in the presence of the clan members and Jiao Yayi, Wu Musheng had no choice but to put his fingerprints on it.
Tong Pandi pressed his fingerprint on the divorce papers, his eyes reddened.
In this life, my destiny has changed.
The fate of his two daughters will also change.
With Jiao as the official witness, Tong Pandi and Wu Musheng did not have to go to the county government office for trial. Jiao directly signed the official seal on the divorce agreement between the two parties.
Tong Pandi completely left the Wu family.
Wu Musheng said to Tong Pandi in a sinister tone: "Even if we get divorced, you can't escape from my grasp."
Tong Pandi looked Wu Musheng in the eyes and said, "Wu Musheng, you should still care about whether you can give birth to a son in this life."
In both his past and present lives, what Wu Musheng wanted most was a son, but he was unable to get his wish.
