NOVPUBLiang Siyu looked like a vulnerable little woman, silent and just looking at Xia Guofu with grievance.
"Motherfucker, a green tea bitch!" Xu Qingfan cursed under his breath.
He roughly knew why Xia Guofu had nothing left to his name, many men liked this type, a wife who acts like a little bird dependent on them, it was a good way to flaunt their machismo.
To be honest, if Xu Qingfan wasn’t such a clear-eyed bystander, he would also doubt whether he could tolerate this kind of act.
"Xiao Xiao, this is your Aunt Liang, it’s all my fault, don’t blame her." Xia Guofu stepped forward to comfort Liang Siyu, who was just barely over one and a half meters tall, by taking her into his arms.
Xia Xiaoxiao made a retching expression, and Lin Jing spoke indifferently, "Let’s not waste everyone’s time. Mr. Xia, come with me, and let’s get the divorce done first."
The divorce procedures in the early 2000s were straightforward, unlike later times when there was a three-month cooling-off period. The lady at the Civil Affairs Bureau, upon seeing Xia Guofu in his festive clothes brazenly bringing along his mistress for the divorce, didn’t even ask a question and just helped them get divorced.
With a red stamp on the book and a record deleted from the computer, from now on, Lin Jing and Xia Guofu were to go their separate ways.
Lin Jing took out a passbook from her bag and threw it over, "Here’s half of the savings from our home. Xiao Xiao and the house are mine. Don’t bother paying any child support. Also, you have two hours to move your things out of the room. If I see anything left when I return, I will treat it as trash and dispose of all of it. Lastly, I’ll change the locks on the house soon. Don’t come back if it’s not important, and even more so if it is. That’s it. Xiao Fan, Xiao Xiao, let’s go."
"The money, you..." Xia Guofu opened his mouth to speak. He wanted to leave all the money to Lin Jing, but she had already taken the hands of Xia Xiaoxiao and Xu Qingfan and had turned away, walking out of the Civil Affairs Bureau.
Liang Siyu tiptoed to look at the numbers on the passbook; when she saw the figure of forty-four thousand, she was so delighted that she couldn’t keep her mouth closed.
"Brother Fu~ the child still needs to be breastfed..." She reminded Xia Guofu from the side.
"Hmm, we’ll get our marriage certificate first."
"Scumbag!" The same lady who had just helped Xia Guofu get divorced couldn’t help but curse inwardly when she saw him unabashedly pulling out his ID card to get married on the very same day.
But after all, it was her job, so all she could do within her powers was to take a less flattering photo of the couple for their marriage certificate.
...
"Don’t come back if it’s not important, and even more so if it is. That’s it. Xiao Fan, Xiao Xiao, let’s go." Xu Qingfan mimicked Lin Jing’s tone as he recited, "Auntie, you were so cool."
Back in the car, Xu Qingfan said excitedly.
"Of course, my mom is cool!" Xia Xiaoxiao looked at Xu Qingfan with pride.
"If Auntie is so cool, why are you so useless, afraid to sleep by yourself?" Xu Qingfan exposed her. n𝚘𝚟pub.𝚌o𝚖
"Xu Qingfan, stop twisting the truth, it’s you who’s afraid to sleep alone!" Xia Xiaoxiao argued with conviction.
Xu Qingfan stared in disbelief, [No way, Xia Xiaoxiao, how can you lie with such brazen confidence?]
"Xiao Xiao is right; this stinky kid has been afraid of the dark since he was little. Last time I asked him to go up to the eighth floor balcony to collect the bedding, he told me he was afraid to go because it was dark!" Yao Jiping also joined in, laughing.
"Ah, that’s right, I’m afraid of the dark, I can’t walk alone at night, I can’t sleep by myself, I’m a coward!" Xu Qingfan admitted defeat.
"Hahaha~" Everyone in the car laughed heartily at his antics, as if they had never gone through the divorce.
Lin Jing could tell their intentions and felt moved, [To encounter a friend like Tao Tao is already incredibly fortunate, and Xiao Xiao has Xiao Fan; we must look forward!]
"Xiao Fan, is there anything you’d like to eat? Since I’m in a good mood today, I’ll treat you," Lin Jing said, smiling.
Xia Guofu still had to return to Lianhua Courtyard to pack his belongings. It wouldn’t be good to bump into him if they went back after eating.
"How about we go for a picnic instead, the second day of the second month is the Greenery Day!" Xu Qingfan suggested.
"We haven’t prepared anything for a picnic, what are we going to do, eat the north wind? Or are you counting on your dad’s half-baked fishing skills to catch some fish?"
"That’s easy; we can just buy disposable tin foil boxes for a barbecue! The market sells marinated meat, and it’s just a bit pricier. Today’s expenses are on me, Xu the young master; you guys just need to grab it!" Xu Qingfan boasted, patting his chest.
They were once again amused by him, but they all agreed to his idea of a picnic.
Xu Qingfan made a call and gathered Lin Wanning and Zhang Yiyi. After picking them up, they went back to the store to pick up Xiao Ruawen and Wu Lingyu. On top of Xu Qingfan and Xia Xiaoxiao, the six little ones were gathered together again after a year.
They took the drinks and snacks directly from the store, and, not wanting to mess up the inventory, Xu Qingfan actually paid for them sincerely.
Afterward, they made a big purchase at Fupeng Market, filled the trunk to the brim, and set off in the car to go picnicking.
Xu Aiguo might not catch anything when fishing, but if you asked him where the best fishing spots with the best scenery were, he was definitely the right person to ask.
In the car, Xia Xiaoxiao sat on her mother’s lap, Wu Lingyu on Yao Jiping’s lap, and Lin Wanning was perched on Xu Qingfan’s lap. Therefore, even though there were quite a few of them, there was enough room to sit.
"Uncle Xu, there aren’t any snakes where we’re going, right?" Having been bitten by a snake once, one fears the well rope for ten years, and with her previous experience, Xiao Ruawen couldn’t help but ask.
"Ruan Wen, don’t be scared. With Little White here, snakes definitely won’t dare come close, right Little White~" Lin Wanning’s little dog had also gotten into the car, and she rubbed her leg against the dog lying at her feet as she spoke.
"Woof woof!"
"Hehe~ don’t worry, it’s right by the river; there won’t be any snakes," Xu Aiguo explained with a smile.
