She didn't believe that Mu Dingjie would divorce her, thinking that Mu Dingjie was trying to scare her.
"You are the one who really killed Qishan!" Mu Dingjie said angrily, "You still don't feel that you are at fault and put all the blame on others! Let me tell you, Cui Xinmei, I can't survive this day! In the past it's for the sake of my daughter that I endured you. Now... I don't even have my daughter anymore!"
At this point, Mu Dingjie finally couldn't help it, like a grown man, and cried.
Mu Lanshu's head hurt from crying.
"Okay." At this time, a clear and calm voice sounded.
The sound was not very loud, but it was like a bucket of ice poured on the heads of Cui Xinmei and Mu Dingjie who were noisy.
The two of them subconsciously stopped talking and both turned to look at Chu Zhaoyang.
"No matter what, she is already dead, how can you keep making excuses about dead people?" Chu Zhaoyang said coldly.
The expression of ridicule appeared on his face, which was particularly strong.
Mu Dingjie lowered his head in shame and clenched his fists tightly.
Cui Xinmei suddenly wailed and shouted like crazy: "You pay for my daughter's life!"
Chu Zhaoyang raised his eyebrows, ignored Cui Xinmei's eyebrows, and said to Mu Dingjie: "Both mother and daughter, they are giving too much trouble to Auntie and Gu Nian here. Mr. Mu, if you are still a man, take care of her. One day as long as she is not divorced, she will still be your responsibility. Don't let her make trouble here in front of your sister and niece. "
Chu Zhaoyang's meaning was very clear. Their family owed them a lot of care for their mother and daughter.
Even if Mu Qishan died, it was not Mu Lanshu and Gu Nian's responsibility.
There's no point in shouting here, Mu Dingjie, don't even think about blaming Mu Lanshu and Gu Nian.
Chu Zhaoyang called him "sir" directly and unfamiliarly, since he really looked down on Mu Dingjie from the bottom of his heart.
Even if he was Gu Nian's uncle.
As a man, he couldn't even control his wife and daughter, and he couldn't teach them well.
And only letting Cui Xinmei shouting to Mu Lanshu here.
It's not that he couldn't control it, he just didn't want to take care of it because it's troublesome.
As long as he could have taken care of it, Mu Qishan would not have reached this stage.
Mu Dingjie asked himself that although he was incompetent, he was not indifferent to right from wrong.
He hated Mu Qishan's death, but he couldn't find a target to vent his anger on.
In the end, no one was to blame.
Nor will he blame Mu Lanshu and Gu Nian for Mu Qishan's death here.
Mu Dingjie nodded heavily: "I know."
Mu Dingjie looked at Mu Lanshu: "Sister, don't worry, before long, Cui Xinmei will no longer be part of our family."
Cui Xinmei forgot to howl and looked at Mu Dingjie blankly.
She trembled her lips and saw Mu Dingjie's face full of determination.
He... was he serious?
Wasn't he trying to scare her?
"We will get divorced after Qishan's body is taken back and the funeral arrangements are settled in Yucheng." Mu Dingjie said coldly, his eyes red.
Cui Xinmei's eyebrows were stern, and she said bravely: "Mu Dingjie, stop scaring people!"
Normally, she was used to being given over by Mu Dingjie. She always spoke her mind at home and had a bad temper.
Often, as long as she shouted a few words at the top of his lungs, Mu Dingjie would give in first.
But this time it was different. Mu Dingjie was not angry. He no longer had the energy to be angry.
With a calm face: "I'm not trying to scare anyone. In the past, I felt that we were a family and couldn't be separated. But now, Qishan is gone. I can't put all the responsibility for what happened to her on you. I didn't put my daughter to have a good upbringing, and I have made mistakes. But I can never live with you any longer. When I see you, I will think of Qishan, my daughter who was taught a good way, and of her tragic death."
Mu Dingjie let out a heavy breath: "I really plan to divorce you. Anyway, you think I am incompetent, so you don't have to be dragged down by me anymore."
Without her making his parents angry, his parents would have been able to live a more comfortable life.
All along, his parents and sister have been tolerant of Cui Xinmei all because of him, and he knew it.
"I am unfilial. I have allowed my parents and sister to tolerate you for so many years, but I have always felt not at ease. Seeing them swallowing their grievances, I can do nothing but let them endure it."
"Mu Dingjie! You are so heartless! My daughter died, don't you think I'm not sad or in pain? You just threw away your hands and divorced me. What will you do if you leave me alone?" Cui Xinmei grabbed Mu Dingjie's hand and arms shaking vigorously.
Her natal family was not like the Mu family.
Although the Mu family only has two siblings, Mu Lanshu and Mu Dingjie, as the elder sister, Mu Lanshu was very tolerant of Mu Dingjie, tolerated him, and supported him.
Even the two elders of the Mu family always thoughy about Mu Dingjie and helped him.
But in the Cui family, the brothers and sisters were quarreling with each other. The two younger brothers below were keeping an eye on their parents' house. The life of the sister's family was more difficult than theirs, let alone help.
The mother at home didn't know what she thinks. She spent all day trying to sow discord between siblings in the family, telling one child how unfilial the other child was.
But when their family was in trouble, their parents complained about poverty and said they had no money to help them.
At this time, Cui Xinmei thought of the two elders of the Mu family.
When she thought that if she divorced Mu Dingjie, she would have nowhere to go.
Her mother's family would definitely not help her.
Neither the two elders of the Cui family would let her go home.
"You've been talking about your mother's family all day, okay? Just go back to your mother's family." Mu Dingjie was determined.
"I won't divorce! We have been married for decades and you have never given me a good life. Now you still want to divorce me?" Cui Xinmei screamed, "No one is as heartless as you!"
"Yes, so I will no longer stop you from living a good life." Mu Dingjie mocked, "Aren't you capable? You can do big things by yourself."
Cui Xinmei was really panicked, and hurriedly said to Mu Lanshu: "Sister! Sister! Tell him! Tell him! I don't want a divorce! I don't want a divorce!"
