The woman pulled Liu Shun out of the bookstore and said angrily with tears streaming down her face, “Liu Shun, do you dare to swear that you speak with a good conscience? How did I let you down? I still have the love letters you wrote to me back then. If you don’t give me an explanation today, I’ll ruin your reputation!”
Liu Shun frowned. His eyes were sinister as he said coldly, “I’ve said it before. I no longer have any feelings for you. My life is still long. Staying together like this is a pain to you and me.”
Fang Ru spat coldly. “Why didn’t you say this when you asked me for money? My family financially supported your study. Now that you’ve achieved something, you want to abandon your wife and son. You’re heartless.”
Liu Shun frowned. “Don’t be like this. Let’s go home and talk.”
Fang Ru smiled sarcastically. “Why do you want to go back and talk? Are you afraid that the villagers would know what kind of person you are.”
The onlookers were whispering to each other.
Liu Sanniang sighed. She did not like to listen to gossip and went home.
When she returned home, Liu Sanniang began to prepare. It was her daughter’s birthday. Chu Yan had also returned early. The two of them prepared an excellent birthday dinner for Xiang’er.
Liu Sanniang casually mentioned what happened today. “I met something today. The daughter of the bookstore quarreled with her husband. They seem to be on the brink of a divorce.”
Chu Yan replied, “That man is a scum.”
Liu Sanniang could not help but look at Chu Yan. “I think so too.”
After so many years, Liu Sanniang did not know if Liu Shun still tortured wild cats and dogs.
In Liu Sanniang’s opinion, they were all lives that had to be respected, but Liu Shun tortured them to death in a ruthless manner.
At night, Liu Sanniang leaned into Chu Yan’s arms and asked, “Yan, if there’s a war, will you go to war?”
In her previous life, she remembered that Chu Yan later became the general of Dingbei. When the war started at the border, Chu Yan joined the army.
Liu Sanniang did not want to be the wife of a soldier. She just wanted to be with Chu Yan like an ordinary couple. Now that the two of them had a child, she did not want Chu Yan to leave her side.
Chu Yan kissed Liu Sanniang’s forehead and said, “I won’t go.”
Liu Sanniang was a little surprised. “Why?”
She did not want Chu Yan to go, but Liu Sanniang was still surprised to hear Chu Yan say that.
Chu Yan smiled and said, “With you by my side, I don’t want to go anywhere.”
Liu Sanniang felt that Chu Yan definitely did not know what he would lose if he did not go, but she did not say it.
“Sleep.”
Chu Yan’s voice was a little hoarse. Liu Sanniang felt sleepy and quickly fell asleep.
However, Chu Yan did not sleep. The corners of his mouth curled up into a faint smile. Time in the illusion was a gift to Chu Yan.
He did not want to wake Liu Sanniang up too quickly. He liked it when she was obedient by his side. He was her husband and they led a carefree life.
However, he knew very well that in this illusion, something heart-wrenching would definitely happen.
As to what it was, he didn’t know yet.
A few days later, Liu Sanniang brought Xiang’er to see Madam Wei. Madam Wei mentioned the matter between Liu Shun and his wife.
In the end, Liu Shun and Fang Ru divorced.
Tang An said with a sigh, “Fang Ru didn’t marry the right person. Her life is ruined.”
Ye Niuniu was more straightforward. “Fang Ru is too kind-hearted. How can she let that scum leave just like that? Heartless people don’t deserve mercy.”
Madam Wei sighed and said, “I knew he’s not a good person. Back then, we rejected his proposal, which made the others think that Sanniang is an arrogant person. As expected, we made the right decision despite not being understood by anyone.”
Ye Niuniu and Tang An did not know about this.
Ye Niuniu asked, “There’s such a thing? Mother, your judgment of people is really good. Fortunately, Sanniang did not get together with him. Even the farmers arc better than Liu Shun.”
Tang An covered her mouth and smiled. “Niuniu is right.”
Madam Wei agreed. “You’re right, but he left just like that and ruined his wife’s reputation for the rest of her life.”
Fang Ru’s entire life had been affected by Liu Shun.
Madam Wei was glad that her daughter did not have to suffer like Fang Ru.
Liu Sanniang said slowly, “I’m afraid he’ll be too ashamed to come back to the village for the rest of his life. Fang Ru is a good woman. She will eventually meet someone who sincerely likes her.”
Madam Wei nodded. “That’s true. Even if Liu Shun didn’t suffer retribution now, I believe the heavens won’t let him off easily.”
After saying that, Madam Wei looked at Liu Sanniang gently. “Ask Chu Yan to come over for dinner tonight and have a few drinks with your father and brothers.”
Tang An had no objections.
Ye Niuniu said seriously, “No, Erlang and I arc preparing to have a child. Liu Erlang can’t drink. It’s said that drinking is harmful to the body. He’s not allowed to drink.”
Madam Wei said, “If he can’t drink, then forget it. It’s not like there is enough wine for him anyway.”
Ye Niuniu said to Liu Sanniang, “Sanniang, Xiang’er is already three years old. You can consider having another child. I think it’s best if you don’t drink. You can use tea instead.”
If Chu Yan was not going to drink, Mr. Liu and Liu Dalang would probably not drink too.
When Madam Wei heard this, she felt that it made sense. “Then I won’t prepare any wine. We can drink some plum juice during the meal.”
Madam Wei pulled Liu Sanniang into the room and wanted to say something to her. Liu Sanniang already knew what Madam Wei wanted to say.
She blushed. “Mother, it’s getting late. I’m bringing Xiang’er home.”
Madam Wei held Liu Sanniang’s hand and said seriously, “Your second sister-in-law is right.. When are you and Yan going to have another child?”
