When the female supporting role has a beauty system

Chapter 1221

Tan You gave Zhang Yifeng a wink, and Zhang Yifeng quickly helped Zhang Dacheng up. When he touched Zhang Dacheng's thin, bony back, Zhang Yifeng felt a pang of sorrow in his heart.

The teenager burst into tears, and Tan You sighed, "Fine, you two cry first, we'll talk after you're done."

The father and son, as if granted a pardon, embraced each other and burst into tears in front of Tan You.

Tan You calmly sipped her tea. She hadn't experienced the suffering these two had gone through, so her words of comfort felt particularly weak and ineffective. Even though she had helped them a great deal behind the scenes, no one could truly empathize with them.

Fortunately, Zhang Dacheng can still make up for his regrets; fortunately, Zhang Yiduo is still young; and fortunately, Zhang Yifeng hasn't gone astray yet...

The heart-wrenching cries carried far and wide, and Zhang Yiduo naturally heard them too. The little girl abandoned Guo Wenting and ran towards Tan You's house. Guo Wenting followed behind, bewildered. As he entered the house a step behind, he saw the father and his two daughters crying together.

Guo Wenting sat down next to Tan You: "Mom, why are they crying?"

Tan You: "It's nothing more than something that's making you sad. Have you finished your homework today?"

Guo Wenting said smugly, "It's done..."

Tonight seemed unusually lively. While Tan You was checking Guo Wenting's homework, Guo Jiantao and his son Guo Wenshan came over.

Especially Guo Jiantao, when he saw Zhang Dacheng and his two daughters crying in each other's arms, his face turned as black as if Tan You had put ten or eight green hats on him.

"who are they?"

Tan You put down her homework: "This is none of your business. What are you doing here? We're divorced. Divorce means we have nothing to do with each other from now on. This is my home. Get out!"

Guo Jiantao was shocked when Tan You told him to get lost right away, and his face turned pale: "Qiao Mai!"

“I can hear you,” Tan You said, unfazed. “Just tell me straight, what brought you here today? It can’t be that you had a change of heart, can it?”

Thinking about his life at Lao Guo's house during this time, and then thinking about how his ex-wife is doing so well now, and thinking about his relationship with Qiao Mai for more than ten years, Guo Jiantao clenched his fist: "I came here today to ask you, let's remarry."

Tan You roughly guessed Guo Jiantao's thoughts, but her expression remained unchanged: "I disagree, please leave."

"You disagree?" Guo Jiantao had imagined all sorts of answers, but he didn't expect his ex-wife to refuse without any hesitation. Why?
"Why? We have two children. The impact of parents separating on children is enormous!" Guo Jiantao was anxious. If his ex-wife did not agree to remarry, how could he have a good life in the future?

“We’ll each have one child,” Tan You said, stroking Guo Wenting’s head. “Your Guo family is sexist. Guo Wenshan is already so old. In a few more years, he should be out working. Whether I’m here or not won’t make much difference.”

"As for Wenting, you were never a very prominent father to her, and she couldn't rely on you. Since she couldn't pass the exams before, what hope do you have for her in the future?"

Seeing that arguing about the child wasn't working, Guo Jiantao tried something else: "We've been married for over ten years, you think you can just let it go like that?"

“Of course I can let it go. After so many years of marriage, it’s always you, Guo Jiantao, who have benefited the most.” Tan You said bluntly, “You live in my house, I bear your children, do your laundry and cook for you, and you, Guo Jiantao, get all the benefits. What have you done for our little family?”

“Since we got married, your salary has been taken by your parents, and they live in your house. When I ask you to ask your parents for your salary, you argue with me every three days or every five days.”

“If you want to be filial to your parents, go do it yourself. Why are you dragging me along? Have your parents ever raised me for even a day? I have my own parents to be filial to.”

Guo Jiantao stammered, "But...that's how other women live their lives." "Just because others do it this way, does that mean it's right?" Tan You said softly, "I have my own job, I can earn my own money, I have a house, and I'm living such a comfortable life. Why should I find myself another man?"

"He can't support the family or handle any problems, and I have to be his slave. Why should you men always be the ones to benefit in the end?"

Are we just destined to sacrifice everything for our families?

"Go away, take your son and leave quickly, don't dirty my land here."

Zhang Dacheng and his sons fell silent, as did the neighbors who had been eavesdropping outside. Tan You's words were harsh, but everyone understood their meaning.

Grandma Wang sighed, "Xiaomai saw things clearly. Men are unreliable, so women have it especially tough."

"That's not quite right. This man earns money to support his family..."

"Don't women earn money? Doesn't she stay home to do laundry and cook?"

A quarrel soon broke out outside the house. Tan You looked at Guo Jiantao and then at Guo Wenshan. "You two are beneficiaries. Just because you are men, everyone naturally sides with you."

“But I’m not willing to dedicate myself to you anymore. I’d rather live my own life than have the energy to plan for you. You can leave now, and don’t come here again.”

Guo Jiantao was still struggling: "But Wen Shan... he's also your son..."

"You can't even afford to raise one child?" Tan You raised an eyebrow. "If you don't want to raise a son, that's fine too. Guo Wenshan will belong to me from now on. Your Guo family will issue me a statement severing ties, and both children will take my surname from now on."

"As for remarriage, it's impossible in this lifetime."

"This...this won't do!" Guo Jiantao exclaimed anxiously, "Wen Shan is the eldest grandson of our Guo family..."

"What's wrong with the eldest grandson?" Tan You's smile didn't reach her eyes. "Does your Guo family have a fortune to inherit? Is the eldest grandson so special? But look at you, the eldest son, you haven't received any preferential treatment. Aren't you just like the Guo family's old ox?"

Tan You took a sip of tea: "These are my conditions. If you can't afford to raise the child, you can send him to me to raise. But I'm not raising him for nothing. It's impossible for me to raise him for several years, and then have him become successful and get a job, only for your Guo family to come and reap the benefits."

"Ultimately, Guo Wenshan is your son, and you should raise your own son."

Tan You remained unmoved by either soft or hard tactics, leaving Guo Jiantao at a loss. The main problem was that he was now even afraid to see Tan You. His ex-wife had become exceptionally sharp-tongued and difficult to deal with; he had never imagined that a different person had taken her place.

Guo Wenshan glanced at Guo Jiantao: "Mom, I don't want to go back with Dad. I can't eat or sleep well there..."

"You know you're not eating or staying well over there?" Tan You put down her teacup. "When your mother and sister went to your grandparents' house, they weren't even allowed to sit at the table to eat. Didn't you see that before?"

Guo Wenshan was stunned; he hadn't expected Tan You to turn on him now.

Tan You's tone became much harsher: "You and your father always side with your grandparents and never see what kind of life your mother and sister are living in the Guo family. The only reason you don't want to go back now is because you're not happy with your life now; you don't really understand the pain we went through."
