Chapter 51 Section ten

The second person to apply for divorce at the county government was Liu Yingchun.That day in front of the county government, she stood on tiptoe to read the posted announcement promoting the popularization of the Marriage Law.The announcement was copied on a piece of yellow straw paper, the light yellow color, with ink characters, very eye-catching, she read it again and again, but still couldn't fully understand the meaning of the announcement.She heard someone shouting at her from behind: "Sister-in-law, if you have any questions, just tell us, and we will help you answer them." She turned her head and saw two staff members looking at her kindly, giving her great courage.

Do you want to tell outsiders about your own family affairs?Liu Yingchun hesitated, and the old things floated in front of her eyes. When Liu Yingchun got married, Lu Xiang was in his forties, two rounds older than her, but he was a good man who knew both cold and hot.Later, there was Lu Siyu, and the child had just turned 100 days old. She held the child and talked with the men in the grocery store. They dreamed of opening another silk shop and wanting to marry their son as a wife.The beauty of the future falls on their hearts like the warm sunshine.The good days can't be kept, like a baby's face, it changes as soon as it changes.That evening, she walked home from the grocery store with her son in her arms, planning to bake scallion pancakes for the man, thinking that he would pick up a few pieces of soap when he went to Liangzhou to buy goods.The son's clothes and diapers were usually soaked in firewood ash. After washing, the clothes became hard and his skin was rubbed red... Later, gunshots rang out, and the man never came back.After burying the man, the mother-in-law looked at her with cloudy eyes: "You give me back my son!" It seemed that Liu Yingchun killed her man.At that time, besides mourning, she was also terrified.The mother-in-law, who has always believed in Bodhisattva, went to the temple in the back street to ask for a lottery, and decided that she was an unlucky person and could no longer tolerate her.After the man's funeral was over, before he was in his early seventies, the mother-in-law asked someone to write a divorce letter to divorce Lu Xiang's wife who had died.Liu Yingchun had no choice but to leave Lu's house and make a living by helping the tofu shop, and she could not see her son again.

How did Liu Yingchun live these years?Simply put, she was kicked out of the house by her mother-in-law.Later, she married again. The man was the head of the tofu shop she worked for.Unexpectedly, after a few years, she only gave birth to a daughter for him.She has always been like a hired worker, working as a cow and a horse in her husband's tofu workshop.Now that the world has changed, Liu Yingchun wants to leave the man she married, and also wants to get back the son she misses day and night from her mother-in-law. In this way, Liu Yingchun stood in front of the announcement posted by the county government, thinking about the past, and kept crying.The staff urged her several times: "Just tell us if you have any grievances, the government will make decisions for you!" So she talked about her missing her son and her resentment towards the man's family after she married.The most important thing is that she wants to get back her son and take away the daughter she gave birth to later.

The new government was really efficient. Within two days, all of Liu Yingchun's problems were resolved. Not only was her marriage with her step-husband dissolved, her son and daughter were brought up by her, and she was promoted in Ping'an County as a model for fighting for freedom of marriage. for a while. Liu Yingchun did not expect that her example would bring bad luck to her husband's family.After Luji Tofu Factory was established as a public-private partnership, various movements followed, and her husband's family was doomed.From then on, Liu Yingchun had to believe what the blind mother-in-law said about her fate.And Lu Xia, the daughter she had with her second husband, was like a wronged couple with her, and it was also her retribution from her husband.

All this finally affected Lu Siyu's life.He formed his attitude towards the family from his mother's encounters in most of his life, that is, he always treats the women around him with overflowing tenderness and sweetness.Therefore, although Lu Siyu later became dissatisfied with his wife Ma Yongqin due to changes in external conditions, and he never stopped having affairs, he never thought of divorce.
