Chapter 960 Divorce
Being able to cooperate with Manager Lu again was something Suning had not expected at the beginning. After all, Suning and Manager Lu had no intersection in normal times.

"Suning, do you want me to arrange a job for Cai Quanwu?" Seeing that the two parties had reached a mutually beneficial cooperation, Manager Lu took the initiative to bring up the matter of Cai Quanwu's job.

"No need! I have already thought of a way out for him." Suning, who had already made new arrangements for Cai Quanwu, naturally no longer wanted to owe him this favor.

"Oh? What exactly are you doing?" Manager Lu looked at Suning in surprise and asked.

"Manager Lu, isn't the country promoting literacy now? So I'm going to open a free literacy class in this yard, and anyone nearby who wants to learn literacy can come and attend the class."

"What? Literacy class?" Manager Lu was really surprised this time. Suning didn't give him the impression that he was so conscious.

"Yes! Since Cai Quanwu went to junior high school, it won't be a big problem for him to teach everyone how to read and write."

"Suning, it seems that I really underestimated you." Manager Lu suddenly looked at Suning in front of him meaningfully, and realized that he had always underestimated everyone in the world.

As a former underground worker, Manager Lu naturally understood the significance of the literacy class. This was Suning giving Cai Quanwu a ladder to ascend to the sky.

Of course, Suning now lives in the house he bought from Pianerye, and the backyard of the canteen has always been used as a warehouse and a place to store pickle jars.

Now is a good time to start a public literacy class, which will give Cai Quanwu a better way out and maybe even make Xu Huizhen fall in love with Cai Quanwu and get married.

Of course, Suning opened this literacy class in the name of Chen Xueru. After all, he didn't need these so-called false names now, so Suning directly named the literacy class "Xueru Literacy Class".

And it is not a short-term literacy class of a speculative nature, but rather we plan to continue this kind of "literacy" class.

Then Suning arranged for Cai Quanwu to post advertisements near Daqianmen and Dashilan, and a public welfare "Xueru Literacy Class" was officially established.

"Hey! Chen Xueru is very aware now! She even thought of starting a literacy class." Pianerye looked at the notice in front of him in surprise, and admired Chen Xueru's good awareness.

"You know what! Our little woman from Daqianmen is really amazing." At this time, Uncle Niu on the side also exclaimed with emotion.

"Uncle Niu, do you want to go and listen together?" At this time, Pianerye suddenly looked at Uncle Niu beside him and invited him.

"Go ahead! Isn't it already written here? Not only are bird cages allowed, but free hot water is also provided. Of course, I, Master Niu, will have a share in the fun."

"Haha, that's fine! Let's go to the literacy class together."

The "Xueru Literacy Class" immediately caused quite a stir in the city of Beijing. However, Chen Xueru, the victim, looked confused. After much thought, she realized that only Suning had the motive and ability to do so.

"Suning, what's going on with this literacy class?" Chen Xueru immediately found her husband and asked with some displeasure.

"Xueru, isn't the country promoting literacy? I thought that the backyard of the cafeteria is idle anyway, so why not use it as a long-term public welfare literacy class." At this time, Suning naturally explained to Chen Xueru in a concise manner.

"Public welfare?" Chen Xueru looked at Suning with some confusion and asked.

"Right? That means it's completely free."

"Hmph! I thought you were always obsessed with money." Although Su Ning did a good thing for Chen Xueru, he was met with sarcasm.

"..."

"Who are you going to have teach the literacy class? Is it that elementary school teacher, Xu Hesheng?"

"No! It's Cai Quanwu. He went to junior high school and has the time to run the literacy class. Tell everyone that the class is run by you."

Suning's respect and tolerance for Chen Xueru did not receive any response. Instead, she continued to live like the self-willed woman in the original drama. Perhaps she just looks down on everyone in the world.

As expected, Chen Xueru once again stated her own arrangements in a domineering manner, not believing that Suning's arrangements were reasonable. "Hmph! I'm officially taking over this literacy class. I'll cover all the expenses. I'll hire other teachers as literacy teachers. That big guy, Wobo, is simply not suitable."

"Chen Xueru, this literacy class can only be led by Cai Quanwu. Whether he is suitable or not has nothing to do with you." Seeing that Chen Xueru was so ungrateful, Su Ning's last bit of patience was exhausted by the other party.

"You...how dare you talk to me like that?" At this time, Chen Xueru still thought she was so great, and still looked at Su Ning arrogantly and questioned him.

"Okay! I don't want to argue with you endlessly. No matter who we are, we should not go too far in our behavior." Su Ning looked at Chen Xueru with disdain and warned her. He felt that the woman in front of him was the kind of person who could open a dyeing factory if she was given a little color.

"you……"

Chen Xueru was undoubtedly feeling angry at this time. She actually noticed disgust in Su Ning's eyes, which was something the arrogant Chen Xueru could not accept at all.

The relationship between a husband and wife is so delicate and fragile that so many conflicts have accumulated without them realizing it.

Maybe Chen Xueru never really respected Suning from the beginning to the end. After all, she was only attracted by Suning's beautiful appearance at the beginning.

Then the little things in life and the reality were not as beautiful as they seemed at the beginning. The differences in values and meaningless arguments had consumed too much passion of the two.

Of course, Suning was also examining this marriage at this time, realizing that he should not have agreed to this marriage in the first place. After all, it was impossible for him to indulge a woman without limits.

But Suning also knew that the matter was done. After all, they now had a child, so Suning continued to tolerate Chen Xueru's arrogance.

……

The "Xue Ru Literacy Class" quickly received a warm response near Daqianmen, and the neighborhood committee and street office naturally heard about it.

"Huizhen, I heard that a public literacy class has been opened in Daqianmen?" The neighborhood committee director received the latest instructions from her superiors and was ready to hand it over to the "general" in front of her to take charge.

"Yes! Auntie, this literacy class was opened by Chen Xueru's husband, Suning. They named it 'Xueru Literacy Class' and publicly claimed it was opened by Chen Xueru. They also arranged for the big, strong man, Cai Quanwu, to be the lecturer."

"Oh? What about Cai Quanwu's lecture?" The neighborhood committee director was also surprised to hear that the person in charge of the lecture was a big and strong man.

"I've gone to listen to it several times, and I feel it's very good. It's easy to understand and very popular among the people." At this time, Xu Huizhen expressed her own opinion. She really admired Suning and Chen Xueru's move.

"Huizhen, word of the literacy class has reached the district and city leaders. They're going to visit the class in person tomorrow. Go find Chen Xueru and ask her to make the arrangements."

"Okay, Auntie, I'll go right away."

Chen Xueru naturally did not expect that a literacy class would have such a big impact, and she immediately happily found Suning with Xu Huizhen.

"Director Xu, you can just go find Xueru and Cai Quanwu directly. I usually don't ask about the specific matters of the literacy class." Looking at Xu Huizhen who came to him, Su Ning directly pushed the literacy class to Chen Xueru and Cai Quanwu.

After all, this was the honor I gave them both, so naturally I don't care about these so-called false reputations.

"Okay! Then let's go find Cai Quanwu?"

"it is good."

Then Chen Xueru looked at Su Ning with a complicated expression, and then went to find Cai Quanwu with Xu Huizhen.

On the way, Xu Huizhen keenly noticed the subtle relationship between Su Ning and Chen Xueru. "Xueru, I feel like your relationship with Su Ning isn't going well."

"Hmph! You don't know until you get married, but getting along with each other is very troublesome." Chen Xueru explained without hesitation. "Xueru, I feel that Su Ning treats you very well. Not only is he devoted to you, but he is also handsome and capable. What else can you not be satisfied with?"

"You don't understand! It's very painful for a couple to have different values. He's so cold and apathetic in everything he does. He lacks the political awareness and passion he should have."

"Eh? Your request is too demanding."

"Humph! You won't understand even if I tell you! You'll know after you get married."

Next, under Suning's deliberate arrangement and catalysis, Xu Huizhen finally came into contact with her man Cai Quanwu.

Soon Xu Huizhen keenly noticed the shining points in Cai Quanwu, and then the two of them came together as expected.

At this time, Cai Quanwu became a formal employee of the grain store as expected, and both he and Xu Huizhen completed a leap in status.

……

Time flies like water, and soon it was 1958. At this time, Su Ning and Chen Xueru's son Su Jie was already four years old.

Suning looked at his son who was running around and shouted, "Su Jie, stop playing! Come and eat."

"Dad, Mom hasn't come back yet." Playful children can always find excuses, and sometimes they are even more plausible.

"It's okay! I've already saved some food for her."

"Oh."

Looking at the well-behaved and lovely son in front of him, Suning couldn't help but smile with relief.

But when he thought about Chen Xueru who was frantically busy competing for the first place, Suning couldn't help but feel depressed again.

The hottest thing in 1958 was the Great Leap Forward in Steel Production. The enthusiastic and grand occasion affected everyone. Perhaps Suning was the only one who could remain calm.

As expected, Chen Xueru rushed home and looked at her husband in a complaining manner, "Huh! You two didn't even wait for me for dinner?"

"I don't know when you will be back, so I saved some food for you."

"Suning, I find you're really free right now. You might as well help me find a way to contribute some scrap metal."

"Chen Xueru, I rarely get to take a day off today. Can you please let me have a good meal?"

"Hmph! What can a lousy cook do? He has no political awareness at all."

"We've only been married for five years, and you're already starting to dislike me?"

"That's right! I was really blind to marry you."

"Chen Xueru, I actually feel that our marriage has lost its meaning. It would be better for us to just separate cleanly."

"Su Ning, you actually want to divorce me?"

"Don't worry! After the divorce, I won't ask your Chen family for a penny, and Su Jie's custody must belong to me."

"Suning, are you crazy?"

"Chen Xueru, I never dreamed that I would marry such a strong wife. I've had enough of your complaints over the years."

"Humph! Divorce if you want! Do you really think I'm afraid of you? As for the custody of Su Jie, I won't give you either."

"I advise you not to be impulsive! It's more appropriate for your son to stay with me, his biological father. Why don't you go home and think about it carefully first?"

"..."

In fact, Chen Xueru did not expect that Suning would file for divorce with her. After being stunned, she felt ashamed and angry and went back home to complain.

"What? Suning wants to divorce you?" Chen Xueru's mother looked at her daughter in shock and asked.

"Yes! He said he was tired of arguing with me and didn't want to continue the endless quarrel."

"Humph! How abominable! This Suning is truly abominable."

"Xueru, what do you think?" Father Chen looked at Chen Xueru calmly and asked.

"Dad, I don't know either." Chen Xueru shook her head helplessly.

"Xueru, actually I feel that Suning treats you very well. Why don't you two just hold on a little longer?" Father Chen couldn't help but persuade Chen Xueru to stay calm.

"What are you still insisting on! You should have let him be the son-in-law of the Chen family. It seems that our Chen family has been too good to him, and now he is messing around without knowing what to do." Before Chen Xueru could respond, Chen's mother excitedly retorted.

"Hey! Xueru, did Suning make any requests?" At this time, Chen's father realized that Suning and Chen Xueru's marriage was already settled, and then he looked at Chen Xueru helplessly and asked.

"He said he wouldn't ask our Chen family for a penny, but he wanted to raise Su Jie himself." Then Chen Xueru stated Su Ning's request.

"Hmph! Give it to him! Without the burden of a child, you can have a new start soon. It just so happens that Hou Minhao, the eldest son of the Hou family, is also divorced." Chen's mother made the decision for Chen Xueru again, and at the same time stated her true purpose.

"..."

In fact, in the eyes of everyone in the Chen family, Chen Xueru marrying Su Ning is marrying down, which is a pity for their Chen family. At the same time, they also believe that Su Ning must unconditionally cater to Chen Xueru and the Chen family.

And now Suning actually took the initiative to file for divorce, which was seen as a humiliation by everyone in the Chen family, so as expected, they agreed to the breakup between Chen Xueru and Suning.

The divorce between Suning and Chen Xueru was not earth-shattering. Instead, they quietly went to the street office to obtain a divorce certificate.

"Suning, I know you've always liked antiques, calligraphy, and paintings, so my father has selected some Ming and Qing dynasty antiques as gifts for you."

"Thank you! When you go back, tell Grandpa Su Jie that I've let them down."

"Suning, you did a great job. If you want to blame someone, blame us for not being able to understand each other."

"I will send Su Jie to kindergarten, and you don't need to worry about him."

"..."

Then Suning left the street office in a calm and relaxed manner, but Chen Xueru felt a sense of loss as she watched Suning's back as he left.
