Quickly wear salted fish, she won by lying down

Chapter 1531 Good Luck Continues (20)
Li's mother thought that although it was just a dream, what if it came true? Anyway, if she stayed in the Li family, Li's father would not give any money to his daughter, so leaving would not be a loss. On the contrary, if it came true and she did not leave, she would be forced to resign, and then her daughter would suffer a great loss.

Leaving means no loss, staying means a high probability of loss; even a fool knows which to choose.

Li's father was unaware of Li's mother's thoughts. Under the subtle instigation of Li Qiuyun and Li Zhiguo, he did feel that he was becoming increasingly displeased with Li's mother. He thought that as long as he could find a suitable partner, he could divorce Li's mother and then remarry.

This suitable partner naturally refers to a woman who cannot ask him for a salary; after all, what's the point of marrying her if she wants to ask him for money?

Mr. Li never considered abandoning his wife. Firstly, he was a respectable man, so how could he be without a wife? Secondly, he also needed to satisfy his physical needs. Although he was getting old, men still had physical needs no matter how old they got.

Because his conditions were too demanding, he had not found a suitable new partner. After all, who would marry him if he said that they couldn't ask him for money after marriage? No matter how much he boasted about earning, if he didn't give them a penny, what did it matter to them? Naturally, they wouldn't marry him just because he boasted about earning a lot.

People are very realistic. They won't marry someone just because they boast about how much they earn. They'll only look at how much the other person gives them. After all, Mr. Li is old and not a rich man. Young girls certainly won't marry him. And older women are mostly divorced or widowed, with children from previous relationships. For such women, it's basically impossible for them to have another child with Mr. Li. Since they won't have any new children with him, they'll definitely ask him for money to support their children from previous relationships and maintain good relationships with them. As for their spouse, whether or not they need to maintain a relationship with him is irrelevant. In their eyes, he's just a heartless ATM.

Because many people share this view, they naturally cannot meet Li's father's requirements for a partner, which is why Li's father has never agreed to Li's mother's suggestion of divorce. However, it must be said that he has already been secretly looking for a new partner.

If he found her, he would definitely divorce Li's mother immediately, because he felt that Li's mother was ungrateful. With his good conditions, she didn't appreciate it. If she divorced him, how good could she be if she remarried? — Li's father never thought about whether it was possible that Li's mother would not remarry. After all, she had a job and children. Why would she need to serve someone else after remarrying? It's not like he had physical needs to satisfy.

If Li's father could divorce Li Qiuyun's mother so easily back then, he could naturally divorce Li's mother just as easily now.

Unlike when he was young, when he acted impulsively and divorced on a whim, he is now older and considers things more carefully. Therefore, he will not divorce until he finds a new partner. So even though Li Qiuyun and others speak ill of Li's mother in front of him, making him hate her more and more each day, he has no intention of divorcing her.

Linlang discovered Li's father's new activities and decided to lend him a hand, urging him to drive them away quickly, since Li's grandparents were about to suffer a stroke and become paralyzed, and time was of the essence.

Of course, she wouldn't harm an innocent woman, lest the woman be forced by Li's father to take care of the elderly couple in the future. So she planned to recommend someone to him who would never be morally blackmailed. Someone who would definitely leave if the elderly couple suffered a stroke and became paralyzed, unless Li's father gave the person money to hire them as a caregiver.

There are actually quite a few realistic people like this; after all, people like Li's mother are a minority.

While Li's father was secretly looking for a matchmaker, Linlang secretly had someone mention this to her chosen target. Upon hearing that a level-six fitter was looking for a new partner, the man became interested and asked the matchmaker to introduce him.

Although she heard people say that her partner was stingy and didn't give money to his ex-wife, and that he wouldn't ask his new partner for money, so most people wouldn't agree to the relationship, she wasn't afraid. She thought she should get the position first, and once she did, she wouldn't be afraid of not getting money.
So he began to get in touch with Li's father.

Because the other party had an ulterior motive, she naturally pretended to be virtuous in front of Li's father, frankly saying that her husband had passed away, her son was grown up and married, and she didn't get along with her daughter-in-law, so she wanted to find a companion to live with, not to live with her son's family, and she didn't need money from him, just food would be enough for her.

These words struck a chord with Li's father, who was naturally pleased.

He immediately began preparing to divorce Li's mother. However, he thought the same as Li's mother and wanted her to initiate the divorce, fearing that if he did, she would make a scene and demand money from him, which was not what he wanted.

But neither Linlang nor Li's mother would initiate a divorce.

Just like Li's father thought, they didn't want to be the ones taking the initiative, lest Li's father cause them trouble.

Fortunately, the newcomer is eager to rise to the top and will urge Li's father from behind, so Linlang doesn't need to rush.

As for Li's mother, she was unaware of this matter, nor did she know that Li's grandparents would soon suffer a stroke and become paralyzed. She was even less in a hurry, thinking that things would proceed slowly.

Sure enough, with Ding Ping—the newcomer—urging him on, and with Li Qiuyun, Li Zhiguo, Grandpa Li and others saying bad things about Li's mother, Li's father, even though he didn't want to bring up divorce first, finally spoke up first.

Of course, he didn't bring up divorce suddenly; rather, he did it during a family conflict, pretending he couldn't stand Li's mother.

What kind of family conflict? It's all about money.

Previously, Grandma Li gave Li Qiuyun 800 yuan, and then Li Qiuyun lost the money. After a commotion, everyone found out that Grandma Li had given her 800 yuan, which led the third branch of the family to demand an explanation from Grandpa Li.

Grandpa Li promised to give an explanation.

Since we've agreed, we must naturally carry it out.

Grandpa Li then asked Li Qiuyun for the money, saying he wanted it back to redistribute it to avoid trouble from the third branch of the family.

Li Qiuyun was furious. She cursed him, saying that she had lost her money, and instead of comforting her, he was demanding money back from her. What kind of grandfather was he! She didn't have any, and there was no way she would give him any.

Grandpa Li favored sons over daughters, unlike Grandma Li, who wouldn't give Li Qiuyun any money. Since he wouldn't give Li Qiuyun any money, he was a useless person to her. Since he was useless, Li Qiuyun naturally didn't respect him. Now that she saw Grandpa Li asking her for money, she naturally cursed him without hesitation.

When Grandpa Li saw that Li Qiuyun said no and even scolded her, he naturally cursed the girl in his heart for being so rebellious. He thought that it was only because it was the new society that she dared to scold him like that. If it were in the past, he would definitely have made her kneel in the ancestral hall!

While thinking it over, she tried her best to suppress her anger and said, "If you don't have it, that's okay. We'll deduct it from your salary from now on until it reaches eight hundred yuan."

Although 800 yuan is a lot, and it may be deducted for two or three years, it doesn't matter, as long as this hole can be filled and the third wife can be given an explanation.
