"You stood on the street and announced it. I don't think it's okay if I don't know! It seems so glorious for anyone to get divorced like you. I wish everyone would know." Yang Maixiang replied with a smile.
Liu Hongchang regarded Yang Maixiang as a brother, but Yang Maixiang's feelings for Liu Hongchang were very clear.
Liu Hongchang's previous evaluation of Yang Maixiang was, I treat you as a brother, but you actually want to sleep with me.
"Okay, you also know that this is a divorce, and it is not an honorable matter. You should stop smiling so happily and put the smile on your face away."
Seeing Yang Maixiang, Liu Hongchang was in a better mood now.
This is the person who is really kind to Liu Hongchang. Apart from his mother Wang Cuilan, the person who treats Liu Hongchang the best is Yang Maixiang.
Not to mention whether Liu Hongchang is thinking about Yang Maixiang's body at the moment.
Not to mention the system’s task of making Yang Maixiang happy.
Just having such a friend and confidante is a happy thing.
"Okay, I'm not laughing. Then tell me, are you out of your mind, or have you just lost your mind and want to divorce your daughter-in-law who looks like you?"
Liu Hongchang was obsessed with He Wenhui before, but now he suddenly filed for divorce.
For Yang Maixiang, who knows Liu Hongchang best, it is indeed a bit unexpected.
"There are so many reasons. I'm just tired and don't want to spend time with her, okay?"
I really can’t give a good explanation for this issue, and it’s not worth talking about not being allowed to sleep.
Even if he is allowed to sleep, Liu Hongchang is not willing to serve that family and can only deal with it casually.
"Okay, whatever you want is fine."
Yang Maixiang continued to ask questions without embarrassment.
This girl is very easy to get along with. She is optimistic, cheerful, outgoing, direct and generous.
Different from the reservedness of most girls of this era, she is closer to girls of later generations in every aspect.
"You came here at noon. Have you eaten? Come home with me for dinner?"
Seeing that Yang Maixiang obviously hadn't eaten, Liu Hongchang took her home.
"Hongchang, you're back. Have you settled everything? If you need mom to find them, don't worry." Seeing Liu Hongchang pushing his bicycle into the hospital, Wang Cuilan came over and asked with concern.
If Wang Cuilan comes forward, of course she will quarrel with Erqing's mother and the others.
Wang Cuilan, a widow, raised two sons by herself. She naturally developed skills to avoid being bullied.
Having experienced countless battles, her fighting ability may be questionable, but when it comes to quarreling, Wang Cuilan can be said to be invincible among the women around Lao Liu's family.
"Maixiang, you're here. Come on, sit down in the room."
Then Wang Cuilan saw Yang Maixiang behind Liu Hongchang, and her son stopped kissing her. She greeted Yang Maixiang enthusiastically and grabbed her immediately.
Although Wang Cuilan usually treats Yang Maixiang well, today Wang Cuilan was even more enthusiastic about Yang Maixiang.
In fact, the idea is not to be too obvious, it is just that I am thinking about Yang Maixiang.
Liu Hongchang wants to get divorced. After becoming single, he will always start a family again, and Yang Maixiang is a ready candidate.
There is actually a reason for this incident. Before Liu Hongchang got married, Wang Cuilan and Liu Yunchang helped Liu Hongchang, and the daughter-in-law he chose was actually Yang Maixiang.
At the beginning, the Yang and Liu families had already reached the point where their parents were meeting to finalize the marriage.
It's just that this engagement banquet was disrupted by Liu Hongchang, who was obsessed with He Wenhui.
"You don't have to sit down, I'm not an outsider. Auntie, you are cooking, can I help you with it?"
Yang Maixiang's personality is like that of a later generation girl, but her housework abilities are still in line with the level of a girl of this era.
Girls like He Wenhui who can't even cook are still rare in this era.
It also fully proves Yu Qiuhua's pampering and doting on the children of the He family.
The children of the He family all have white-eyed wolf attributes, and Yu Qiuhua's pampering, doting, and indulgence are a large part of the reason.
"No, it's enough for Xiaoying to help me. You two can go into the house and talk."
Wang Cuilan also tried her best to create opportunities for the two of them.
"Let's go inside."
Through the window, Liu Hongchang saw that the food was almost ready, so he was waiting for it to be cooked, and did not let Yang Maixiang join in the fun.
After entering the house, Liu Hongchang took out the packages he brought back from the wooden house and prepared to sort out the things first.
"Leave it alone, I'll do it." Yang Maixiang saw it and grabbed it.
"Okay, you can come and do it." Someone helped clean it up, but Liu Hongchang certainly didn't want to do it by himself.
"How come half of your clothes are dirty? Your wife won't wash them for you?" Yang Maixiang was still very agile, putting the clean ones into the cabinet and leaving out the dirty ones.
"We're about to get divorced, why are you mentioning her?"
It's quite disturbing to mention it.
They can't cook, they can't do housework, they can't do laundry, they don't have tailoring skills, and they can't sleep.
He Wenhui doesn't really want to be seen. Liu Hongchang's marriage to He Wenhui is completely useless.
"Then don't mention it. Just put your dirty clothes away for now. I will wash them for you after you finish eating."
"If you don't leave in the afternoon, won't you go to work?"
Liu Hongchang canteen has annual leave to rest, but bus conductors like Yang Maixiang.
Even during the Chinese New Year, there was no rest.
Because there are more people visiting relatives and friends during the Chinese New Year period, bus conductors like Yang Maixiang, who serve routes from cities to towns and rural areas, can be said to be busier than usual.
"I've changed shifts with someone else. How can I still go to work with peace of mind when something so big happens to you?"
"You should go to work, go to work, whatever big trouble happened to me, it was just a trivial matter."
Liu Hongchang declined Yang Maixiang's company. He Wenhui hadn't finished handling the matter yet and had no intention of developing it.
"You were beaten as a gangster and your wife is gone. Isn't that a big deal?"
Yang Maixiang insisted, obviously wanting to take advantage of the fact that Liu Hongchang would soon be single again and win over Liu Hongchang.
"Forget it, you can do whatever you like. My family is just preparing to celebrate the New Year and there are many things to do. Come if you want."
The girl was so persistent and it was hard to let down the friendship, so Liu Hongchang chose to compromise this time.
Then this year, Yang Maixiang basically spent his time at Lao Liu's house, except for going back to his own home to sleep at night and during working hours when he had to work.
During the Chinese New Year, Liu Hongchang also lived a comfortable life for a while.
Although I was in the "human world" before, I was enjoying life for a long time.
But if you want to enjoy life, you must also have a young body so that you can have fun.
"Director Yao, senior brother, happy New Year!"
After enjoying it, he just continued to work. The first thing Liu Hongchang did when he arrived at his unit, the second state-owned canteen, was to find the director.
Liu Hongchang still needs this job. At least he has something to do. In the eyes of others, Liu Hongchang is a serious person.
Now that we have reformed and opened up, we can already do some business and have the foundation to become a businessman.
However, the reform started in the south, and it would still take many years to affect this small northern city.
Before the masses realized the power of money, from the perspective of ordinary people, working in a state-owned unit was much more reliable than doing business.
Liu Hongchang, who is unlikely to be short of money, does not need to do such an outrageous thing as quitting his job and becoming a hawker.
It is actually very happy to enjoy ordinary life peacefully.
"Don't... don't be so polite to me. Why are you paying attention?" Seeing Liu Hongchang's good attitude, he laughed before saying anything. The director felt guilty at first.
Yao Guofa, the director of the Second Canteen, is a middle-aged man in his forties.
Yao Guofa and Liu Hongchang learned cooking under the same master, so they have a relationship of apprenticeship brothers.
Ordinarily, with this connection, the relationship between the two people should have been quite close.
But because Liu Hongchang was quite self-centered and had good self-control skills, he was not convinced by the director's discipline and did not take the director seriously.
As a result, the relationship between the two people is now a bit delicate.
Yao Guofa not only relied heavily on Liu Hongchang, but also feared Liu Hongchang, and always wanted to find opportunities to deal with Liu Hongchang.
Establish your prestige as a director.
There are only about ten people in the state-run canteen, which can be considered a workplace and has politics.
"I don't think you have any bad ideas. It's just a small matter. I want to trouble you."
"What's the matter, please tell me first and listen."
"Open me a letter of introduction for divorce."
"What?" Lao Yao stood up in surprise.
"You heard that right, don't get excited, it's just a divorce."
"You didn't put in so much effort to marry a wife who you just wanted to divorce?"
"That was then, and now is now. I want to leave now. Don't try to persuade me anymore. I have thought about it for a long time and made up my mind. Just open one for me and that's it."
This is why even in case of divorce, a letter of introduction from the employer is required.
The reason is that now they are all state-owned units, and the units have the obligation to mediate family conflicts among their employees.
Chinese people take marriage very seriously, so they need to be more cautious when handling it.
The process of opening a letter of introduction is to give the unit an opportunity to mediate.
When the employer issues a letter of introduction, it means that in the eyes of the employer, there is no need or opportunity to save the marriage.
Liu Hongchang was polite to Yao Guo today because he wanted to save some time and avoid the need for his work unit to intervene in the adjustment process.
"Don't think about it anymore?" Yao Guofa said hesitantly.
"I've thought about it a long time ago. Please hurry up and open it for me. Otherwise, you can stamp it and I can write it myself?"
Seeing Yao Guofu grinding his hair, Liu Hongchang returned to his original style of doing things.
I found the manuscript paper on Yao Guofa's desk and found the seal, so I grabbed Yao Guofa's hand and stamped it.
"Don't do anything, I'll do it myself." Lao Yao hurriedly responded.
It’s no wonder that Liu Hongchang has always had this style of doing things. This style was indeed effective in dealing with Yao Guofa.
"I'm taking leave today to get a divorce!"
When Yao Guofa wrote the letter, Liu Hongchang said at the same time.
"On the first day of work, you have to take leave?"
It's my first day at work, and the cafeteria is quite busy today.
"Then if you don't ask for leave, how can I get a divorce?"
Before Yao Guofa could say whether to approve or not, Liu Hongchang grabbed the letter of introduction written by Yao Guofa and left.
In a technical unit like the Second Canteen, Liu Hongchang, the best cook, can indeed do whatever he wants.
Several off-label dishes in the canteen are cooked by Liu Hongchang.
Most of the customers who come to the canteen come here for Liu Hongchang's craftsmanship.
It can indeed be said that Yao Guofa could not do anything to Liu Hongchang.
"He Wenhui, comrade, let me find He Wenhui."
Not far from the Second Canteen is the Yuejin Garment Factory where He Wenhui works.
Even this temporary job was found with the help of Liu Hongchang.
Because Liu Hongchang often drove He Wenhui to and from get off work in the morning and evening, and delivered meals to He Wenhui at noon, he was also familiar with the factory guards. He easily entered the factory and found the workshop where He Wenhui worked.
"He Wenhui, your cook is here."
"He Wenhui, your man comes to see you again."
"He Wenhui, your man follows you very closely."
Liu Hongchang could hear from a distance that the workers in the workshop were teasing He Wenhui.
Because Liu Hongchang was so fond of He Wenhui that he served his wife just like he served his ancestors.
Different from ordinary men of this era, Liu Hongchang is quite famous among He Wenhui's colleagues.
Amid the teasing, He Wenhui ran out coyly and yelled: "What are you doing here? How did you find the workshop?"
Judging from He Wenhui's attitude, she somewhat thought that Liu Hongchang was here to apologize and reconcile.
"Divorce, don't you forget it? We agreed to do it when we get to work."
"I'm still at work..." Although He Wenhui's face turned cold, she made an excuse not to rush for a divorce. She probably didn't get enough out of Liu Hongchang, who had been taken advantage of.
This year, without Liu Hongchang's unconditional support, the He family would not have been able to live as well as they did.
"I'll ask for leave for you, and then take you to get a letter of introduction."
Without giving He Wenhui time to write his ink, Liu Hongchang rushed to He Wenhui's workshop director.
As a workshop director in a garment factory, I earn a good income.
I also have the capital to occasionally go to the Second Canteen to eat good food and drink some wine, so Liu Hongchang is also familiar with it.
It is not difficult to ask for leave, nor is it difficult to help He Wenhui open a divorce letter of introduction.
This is the reason why He Wenhui is a temporary worker. Compared with regular workers, the administrative department of the factory obviously treats these temporary workers much more perfunctorily.
"I didn't bring my household registration book..." After opening the letter of introduction, He Wenhui had another problem.
It can be said that He Wenhui was not prepared for divorce.
Liu Hongchang said it so seriously a few years ago that He Wenhui might have thought Liu Hongchang was joking.
After all, divorces are really rare these days.
Affected by traditional concepts, if you can get along with your life, you will not choose divorce.
Couples quarreled fiercely at home, suffered severe head injuries, and couldn't survive. More people chose to commit suicide than to divorce.
"Then I'll take it with you."
Liu Hongchang has made up his mind to get divorced today.
"Hong Chang, if you give me some time, I can accept being with you."
Seeing Liu Hongchang's firm attitude, He Wenhui finally spoke softly.
"It's not necessary. You, Wenhui, are a quasi-college student and the pride of heaven. Why do you need to embarrass yourself?
Besides, it’s not like I haven’t given you time. I’ve given you a few months since we got married. Do you accept it? Since you are still thinking about Li Jianbin, why did you marry me in the first place?”
The fundamental reason why He Wenhui couldn't accept sleeping with Liu Hongchang.
This woman is still thinking about another man, He Wenhui's first love, Li Jianbin.
