After the wood spirit root awakens, you will reap what you sow and bring it to the motherland

Chapter 33: Heartbroken

"How dare you ask?" Deng Hongmei said unhappily, "I asked you to keep an eye on her, but where were you staring at?"

It's been less than two months, and the little bitch who should have starved to death in bed has risen to the top and become a hot figure in Baisha Village!
Now, not only the people in Team 1 want to curry favor with her, but even the people in other teams are looking forward to working under her.

Deng Hongmei became furious when she thought about how the villagers now praised that little bitch.

Gu Shan thought his wife was just full and had nothing to do. "Mingzhu is great, that's a good thing. Wouldn't it be better if she could make a lot of money? At least she doesn't have to borrow money from you."

At this point, he muttered, "If she's still in the same difficult situation as before, you'd probably take a detour whenever you see her, for fear that she'd ask you to borrow some rice."

Deng Hongmei was already angry enough, and after hearing what Gu Shan said, she couldn't help but kick him twice.

She said fiercely, "How dare you say that? Her last name is Gu, and your last name is Gu too! How come she is so capable!? You can't even farm better than her, and you still have the nerve to talk back to me!?"

After being scolded and beaten, Gu Shan shut his mouth and said nothing.

Deng Hongmei was still not satisfied. "Just bring me some strawberry seedlings today. I don't believe that the bitch can grow them but we can't!"

They all have the same ancestor.

It doesn’t make sense that the ancestors only bless that bitch and not their first wife!
Gu Shan was a little embarrassed when he heard this. "We don't have a greenhouse at home. It will frost in a few days. Once the frost hits, the strawberries will die. It will be a waste of effort to plant them."

"Can't you build a simple one?" Deng Hongmei said angrily, "I want you to make money, but you can't do this or that. If you talk back, you're the first!"

"If I had known you were so useless, I would never marry you even if I had to be a widow for the rest of my life!"

No matter how afraid of his wife Gu Shan is or how good his temper is, he is still a man after all.

How could he bear being belittled by his own wife like this?

As soon as Deng Hongmei finished speaking, he yelled, "I'm useless? I do all the heavy and dirty work at home."

"I understand that you gave birth to three children for me, and I spend all the money I earn on you! You say one thing, and I won't say two!"

"Everyone in Team 1 laughed at me and said I was henpecked, but I never complained! But what about you!?"

"If they don't like me, they'll beat me up or kick me, or they'll point their fingers at me and keep scolding me!"

"Deng Hongmei, I am your husband, not your slave! You scold me and I don't say anything back, you hit me and I don't fight back, that's because I respect you!"

"But that doesn't mean I can't beat you or talk you down! If you don't want to live with me, leave now. I won't stop you!"

After saying this, Gu Shan put on his coat and left.

Deng Hongmei opened her mouth wide. Even after everyone had gone far away, she still hadn't come to her senses.

After all these years of marriage, this was the first time she saw Gu Shan get so angry.

Thinking of his ferocious expression just now, she was somewhat frightened.

He doesn't really want a divorce, does he?
But the next second, Deng Hongmei snorted coldly, "Divorce if you want, who's afraid of who! I'm just afraid that you won't want to leave when the time comes!"

He himself said that she gave birth to three children for him!

And she basically controls all the money in the house.

If they divorce, the child is hers, and the money is hers too. What benefit can he get?
Thinking of this, Deng Hongmei's heart instantly settled down, and she gave up the idea of ​​coaxing Gu Shan.

But she didn't know that the quarrel today directly laid the groundwork for the end of their marriage.

……

In the orchard.

Wang Yishen and his colleagues were busy until dark and then left.

As soon as they left, Gu Mingzhu planned to lock the door. Ever since Lin Guihua let her sheep into the greenhouse to eat vegetables last time, she installed locks and cameras in both greenhouses.

Just as she was about to lock the door, she saw someone huddled in the corner.

She was startled: "Who's there!?"

At first, the man didn't say anything. Gu Mingzhu took a hoe to protect herself and walked towards the corner step by step, "Who is it?!"

"If you don't come out, I'm going to beat you up!"

As soon as she said this, the person in the corner immediately spoke up: "Mingzhu! It's me!"

When she got closer and saw that the man was Gu Shan, she breathed a sigh of relief, "Uncle? Why are you here?"

"No, nothing. I just saw someone installing a greenhouse, so I came over to join in the fun..." Gu Shan was shivering with cold.

It was cold already, and it got even colder after dark.

Fortunately, it is warmer in the greenhouse than outside, otherwise he would have been frozen to death.

Seeing how frozen he was, Gu Mingzhu quickly pulled him to a fire barrel.

She added some coals to the fire bucket and then asked, "Uncle, did you have a quarrel with Aunt?"

At this time, most people in the village have dinner.

Normally, the eldest wife would eat and sleep early.

It was already dark now, and Gu Shan was still hanging around outside. It was most likely that he had an argument with Deng Hongmei.

Maybe he was kicked out...

Gu Mingzhu just guessed that, but when Gu Shan heard her words, he choked up.

Now Gu Mingzhu was a little panicked.

Gu Shan could be said to have watched the original owner grow up. In the past twenty years, except when the original owner's parents died, she had never seen Gu Shan cry.

She looked at Gu Shan at a loss, unable to utter a word for a long time.

Ask her to grow vegetables and sell them, and she will do it.

But she really can't comfort the elders!
Gu Shan was really aggrieved.

He wiped away his tears and told everything that happened today.

Gu Mingzhu was not surprised at all when he learned that Deng Hongmei asked him to keep an eye on her.

She had known for a long time that Deng Hongmei would be suspicious, so she had been very careful in the past few days to prevent the villagers from finding out that she had so many vegetables to sell.

But when Gu Shan said he wanted a divorce, Gu Mingzhu was shocked. "Uncle, are you just saying that in anger?"

Hasn’t the couple always had a good relationship?

Why are you getting divorced for no reason?
Gu Shan shook his head, "Mingzhu, I'm serious."

He pointed to the sky outside and said, "Look, it's dark, and it's minus 2 or 3 degrees outside, and she didn't even look for me or call me."

He had been away from home for four or five hours and had not eaten lunch or dinner.

If it hadn't been warm in the Mingzhu greenhouse, he would have probably fainted from the cold.

The more he spoke, the more aggrieved he felt. "Over the years, I have tolerated her and given in to her. But what about her? In the eyes of Deng Hongmei, I am not even as good as the slaves in ancient times."

"She keeps threatening me with divorce and wants to take the kids away. Since she despises me so much, what's the point of living like this?"
