Chapter 989: Chapter 992 Preferring Divorce
"Mother, at that time I was afraid of infecting Xiao Fu, you know, since he’s a child, he could easily catch it, I was really helpless," Little Wang Clan explained.
"Don’t just say nice things with your mouth, although I was deeply asleep back then, I heard everything you all said,"
Wang Clan said with a stern face.
Tan Zhengyong had said catching the plague meant certain death sooner or later; seeking medicine was merely wasting silver.
Little Wang Clan said to send her away quickly, lest the whole family perished.
Xiao Fu said he absolutely couldn’t let Grandmother die, because if she did, Tan Zhenghong surely wouldn’t send more silver or food.
In the end, Tan Yuancheng said that the lives of the whole family mattered more and to let her fend for herself.
If it weren’t for Fourth Boss and his wife saving her, she might not even have the chance to speak now.
Little Wang Clan still continued, "Mother, it was agreed initially that the second branch would take care of you, you still have to live with us, and now that you and Fourth Boss have cleared up the misunderstanding, he’ll give you some money for elderly support in the future."
By then, how to use it would be entirely up to her.
"I’m just an old lady who was kicked out of her home. Fourth Boss and his wife are kind-hearted, they took me in, gave me a place to live, fed me; I’m already very content, and wouldn’t hope for anything else,"
This was how Wang Clan saw herself.
Therefore, since Tan Zhenghong ignored her, she bore no complaints.
If they were willing to be kind to her, she was immensely grateful.
In the future, she would help with some household chores, and if Fourth Boss and Duo’er didn’t mind, she could also help take care of the child, at least she wouldn’t be freeloading.
Little Wang Clan clenched her fists in secret; this old thing really didn’t know when to stop!
She lowered her voice and said, "Fourth Boss and his wife must absolutely detest you; now that everyone knows about the things Zheng Shi did, they’re forced to keep up appearances, but once this blows over, they’ll surely reveal their true colors, so you better take some advantage now."
"It looks to me you’re running short on silver,"
Wang Clan said pointedly, her tone slightly harsh; this was Little Wang Clan’s real intent.
Little Wang Clan blinked, completely taken aback by Wang Clan’s blunt words that left her at a loss.
At the right moment, Xiao Fu interjected, "Grandma, don’t be angry, my mother knows she was wrong, she hasn’t been able to sleep at night, and has been crying secretly."
He was raised solely by Wang Clan, who always listened to him and took his advice.
But this time, Wang Clan didn’t make the same mistake.
"From the moment you sent me away to be quarantined, I was no longer related to you; once my arm heals, I will divorce Tan Yuancheng," Wang Clan said slowly.
Only by doing so would Fourth Boss’s family no longer be harassed by these people.
She believed this would be her wisest decision.
Little Wang Clan’s mouth fell open, "Think it through, if you divorce, you won’t be able to be buried in the ancestral tomb."
Not being buried in the ancestral tomb meant being a wandering ghost.
Wang Clan hesitated, but in the end, chose to believe in Tan Zhenghong.
In the future, Ah Hong wouldn’t be qualified to be buried in the ancestral tomb either; he would surely set up a new shrine, and would probably reserve a place for her.
And Ah Hong was the most capable among the sons; in the future, he would surely bring prosperity and plenty of descendants.
"You all better go back, Duo’er doesn’t like strangers visiting her home," Wang Clan said unceremoniously, showing them out. 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘱𝘶𝑏.𝑐𝘰𝑚
If she wanted to be good to Ah Hong, she wouldn’t invite these people who coveted his property back.
Upon leaving the Tan Family, Little Wang Clan was still indignant.
"This old thing, only thinking about her comfort, at her age, actually contemplating divorce, she’s truly shameless!" Wang Clan grumbled incessantly.
