At fifty, she remarried into a wealthy family; her ex-husband knelt down and begged for reconciliati

Chapter 143 Anyone would go crazy in this situation.

He Qiaoyun, however, was not going to tolerate it at all, and said, "Say it, why won't you say it? You've wronged me and been so sarcastic towards me for so long, you should give me an explanation."

Why should she bear the blame for her son's mistakes? She is a human being, not a scapegoat.

Xu Hemei asked again, "Mom, are you sure?"

"determine."

Xu Hemei: "Okay, I'll explain it to her in the group chat."

After hanging up the phone, she opened the WeChat group and said: "Second sister-in-law, I just asked Mom. She transferred money to your second brother back then. You'd better find out exactly where he spent the money. Mom is innocent. After you find out, apologize to her."

Upon receiving the message, Ji Ying's mind became a jumbled mess.

Looking back, it was indeed Xu Xiucheng who unilaterally told her that his mother wouldn't give her any money, and she would have to pay for a nanny herself to take care of her daily needs...

Her emotions became complicated; she couldn't believe it, and she didn't want to admit it—the man who loved her so much was actually after her money for staying at the postpartum care center...

"No, it can't be. It must be Xu Hemei and He Qiaoyun talking nonsense. He Qiaoyun would even frame her own son for her own sake. How despicable..." she muttered to herself as if trying to brainwash herself.

The next moment, the door opened, she jumped up from the sofa, walked quickly to the entrance, and stared at Xu Xiucheng who had returned from working overtime.

Xu Xiucheng looked away guiltily, forcing an awkward smile, "Wife, it's so late, why aren't you resting yet?"

Ji Ying didn't respond, but just stared intently at him. "Is there anything you want to tell me?"

When people are lying or embarrassed, they always have a lot on their hands. Xu Xiucheng put down his laptop bag, opened the shoe cabinet to get shoes, and said, "What could I possibly want to tell you?" He sat down on the shoe-changing stool and asked, "I just got back from working overtime. I'm tired and hungry. By the way, are you hungry? Want to order some barbecue for a late-night snack?"

Ji Ying still didn't respond, and continued, "I'll give you one more chance. Now open your phone, check the group messages, and then answer me. Is there anything you want to tell me?"

Xu Xiucheng's smile froze on his face as he took out his phone. "What are you looking at?"

Then, he opened WeChat, clicked on the little red dot in the group, scanned Xu Hemei's information, and immediately stopped laughing. He never expected that the trial would come so quickly.

"Is what Xu Hemei said true?" Ji Ying seemed to be enraged and questioned coldly.

Xu Xiucheng looked up, his mind blank, unable to even come up with a response.

After sharing a bed for so many years, Ji Ying saw him like this and suddenly realized that she had been misunderstanding He Qiaoyun all these years.

It's ridiculous.

The man who once said he loved her the most treated her like this; anyone would go crazy in that situation.

"Xu Xiucheng, do you know what 100,000 yuan means to me? Do you know how agonizing that month was after I gave birth? Who did I give birth to this child for?!" Ji Ying screamed hysterically at him.

*5

Although Xu Xiucheng didn't understand why she cared so much, he knew he was in the wrong, so he coaxed her gently, "I'm sorry, I... I just felt that spending 100,000 yuan all at once was too wasteful. I was thinking of saving it so we could go on a trip when we have time..."

Ji Ying couldn't listen to anything else; the word "waste" ignited her anger instantly.

“What a waste,” she chuckled, then yelled at him, “If you think it’s a waste, then don’t have a child! Why are you getting married and having a child in the first place!”

Despite having the means to better recover after childbirth, he dismissed the matter lightly with a dismissive comment about it being a waste, embezzled the money, and then shifted the blame onto He Qiaoyun.

It's unbelievable! This is the wonderful husband and father I always brag about to everyone I meet...

"Xu Xiucheng, you've really opened my eyes! I've never seen such a selfish, petty, and irresponsible piece of trash like you in my entire life!"

When anger gets the better of you, you start to speak without thinking, simply to vent your frustrations.

These words struck a nerve with Xu Xiucheng. He had been speaking politely, but now he couldn't keep up the act any longer. "Ji Ying, that's enough! This happened so long ago, and you're still not that forgiving. Besides, was the child born to our family? Isn't it your child too?"

Ji Ying was so angry that tears streamed down her face. She stared blankly at him, her heart shattered. Unable to suppress her grief, she squatted down, hugged herself, and cried.

Xu Xiucheng had just finished working overtime and was too exhausted to put on a show of crying and coaxing with her, so he turned around and went into the room.

Ji Ying cried alone for a while. When she looked up, she didn't see Xu Xiucheng, but her three-and-a-half-year-old son standing in front of her holding an Ultraman toy.

For some reason, Ji Ying let out a soft laugh with teary eyes.

Her son turned around and went back to the living room. He took out a few tissues and handed them to her along with his phone, comforting her in his childish voice, "Mommy, don't cry, don't cry."

Ji Ying took the tissue, wiped away her tears, and forced a broken smile. "Don't cry, Mommy, don't cry."

As she spoke, she reached out and hugged her son, asking, "Sweetie, if Mommy and Daddy were to get a divorce, would you want to stay with Mommy?"

Upon hearing this, the son burst into tears, crying, "No, I don't want Mommy and Daddy to get a divorce..."

Ji Ying was already upset, and hearing her son cry, she lost control of her emotions and snapped, "That's enough! What are you crying about!"

The son pursed his lips, looking aggrieved, tears still falling.

Xu Xiucheng came out of the house after hearing the noise. When he saw Ji Ying yelling at her son, his brows furrowed. "Ji Ying, why are you yelling at the child!"

The son burst into tears again, reaching out to Xu Xiucheng, "Dad..."

Looking at the father and son, Ji Ying's already broken heart was overwhelmed.

Xu Xiucheng is busy with work, and so is she, but they still manage to find precious time to take care of the children.

It can be said that she takes care of her son 90% of the time. From major things like taking him to the doctor and getting him injections, to minor things like feeding him and taking him to the toilet, she does everything herself. As for Xu Xiucheng, he would even sleep in on the rare weekend mornings and take the child out for a stroll in the afternoon, which he considered taking care of him.

Even so, his son was still closer to him. When he worked overtime, his son would always ask, "Dad, when are you coming home?"

Watching Xu Xiucheng coax his son, she felt like a superfluous person, working hard without complaint, only to end up exhausted like this.

it is ridiculous.

She slowly said, "Xu Xiucheng, let's get a divorce."

Xu Xiucheng paused, his face full of displeasure. "Are you really going to make a fuss over this? The child is still so young."

Ji Ying's tears fell again, but she didn't look miserable at all. Instead, she wiped away her tears and said firmly, "Yes, because of this, you wronged me and lied to me for three whole years. In these three years, you were willing to let your mother take the blame and watch me sulk alone, but you were unwilling to give me the truth. Is there any point in continuing this marriage?"

Xu Xiucheng looked embarrassed. "So now you know? I apologize, I'm sorry, please stop making trouble, okay?"

Ji Ying chuckled lightly, "Me, making a scene? Xu Xiucheng, just because of what you said, I can't live like this anymore. I've seen through you."
