Becoming wealthy by raising furry animals

Chapter 10 Entrepreneurship (5)

When Ban You approached, he heard people saying words like "taking a concubine", "beating people", and "shrew".

She was afraid that something might happen to Li Yiyi, so she hurried to squeeze in. When she finally got to the front, she saw Li Yiyi with disheveled hair, red eyes, and tears on her face. She pointed at Zheng Laocai and started cursing.

"Zheng Laocai! What did you promise me when we got married? You said you would only love me for the rest of your life, that you wouldn't take concubines, and that you wouldn't go out and look for other women!"

"Now! Now! This woman has even brought her child to our house! Zheng Laocai, we can't live like this anymore!"

Ban You looked in the direction of Li Yiyi's finger. Behind Zheng Laocai, whose face was covered in blood, stood a mother and child. The woman looked to be in her early twenties, and the child looked to be about two or three years old. This meant that Zheng Laocai and this woman had been together for at least three years.

Ban You saw Li Yiyi starting to beat Zheng Laocai again, and Zheng Laocai's face was full of annoyance, and he pushed Li Yiyi directly.

She rushed forward and supported Li Yiyi.

"Brother Zheng, why can't we talk about it calmly? How could you hit Sister Li?"

"No, Miss Ban, look at my face! This bitch scratched me!"

Ban You ignored him, turned around and looked at the onlookers and shouted, "Everyone, please disperse. This is your own business. Everyone, disperse, disperse!"

As Ban You drove them away, the onlookers also dispersed.

It didn't matter that they dispersed. The woman who was originally standing behind Zheng Laocai became a little anxious and quickly stood out from behind Zheng Laocai.

"Sister, Zheng Lang and I are truly in love. If Qi'er didn't need money to help him get started, I definitely wouldn't have bothered you, sister..."

As the woman cried out her grievances, some of the people who had dispersed gathered back again.

When Li Yiyi heard what the woman said, she became furious. Just as she was about to go up and hit the woman, she was stopped by Ban You.

Ban You pulled her aside and asked softly, "Sister Li, it's obvious that this woman wants to make a big deal out of this and have everyone make the decision for her."

She glanced at the woman behind her and continued, "Having three wives and four concubines is common nowadays. Even though Brother Zheng and you had an agreement when you were young, now that it has happened, it depends on what you want to do."

Li Yiyi thought for a moment, her eyes misty with tears as she looked at Ban You with a determined gaze: "I want a divorce! My father kindly saved him from a serious illness and let him work in my house. Later, my parents died one after another, and I married him, and he took over our family butcher shop. Now that life is better, he treats me like this! I must divorce him!"

"If you want a divorce, then we can't keep going on like this. It's better to go directly to the government, get a divorce agreement, and have Brother Zheng sign it directly. Then you can get back your dowry and Xiaobao..."

Li Yiyi touched the bracelet that Zheng Laocai gave her when they got married, and tears couldn't stop flowing.

The bracelet wasn't in great condition, not as good as any of her current jewelry, but because it was a gift from Zheng Laocai when they got married, she had worn it until now. She took good care of it, but no matter how well she cared for it, it was bound to get dinged and now, looking closely, it had some cracks on it.

Li Yiyi wiped her tears, took a deep breath, turned around and walked towards Zheng Laocai.

"I just want to ask you one question: why did you do this?"

Zheng Laocai also said impatiently: "Look at you, you are not even thirty and you are already so fat. Look at Jiaojiao. Besides, Jiaojiao is much more considerate and sensible than you. What about you? You blame me for the poor business of the butcher shop, and you blame me for Xiaobao getting into trouble. What dignity do I have in this family?"

Li Yiyi nodded in understanding. She used all her strength to take off the bracelet, handed it to Zheng Laocai and said, "This bracelet was given to me by you when we got married. I'm returning it to you now. Tomorrow I will go to the government office to write the divorce papers. This house and shop were left to me by my parents. You have no right to them. Move everything out tomorrow, and we'll pretend we never knew each other."

Li Yiyi slowed down, clenched his fists and continued: "And Xiaobao, he is my son, I want to take him away."

Zheng Laocai hadn't reacted to the news of He Li's separation. When he heard that Li Yiyi wanted to take Xiaobao away, he immediately retorted, "No! Xiaobao is my Zheng family's child. You can't take him away!"

"Xiaobao is my son. You already have a son. Why do you want to snatch my son away!" Li Yiyi cried loudly.

Just then, Xiaobao, who had just finished school, walked in somewhat confusedly.

"Dad, Mom." Li Yiyi wiped her tears quickly when she heard Xiaobao's voice, walked to Xiaobao, squatted down, and looked at him seriously.

"Xiaobao, I want to divorce your father. Can I take you away?"

Xiaobao looked at Li Yiyi, then at Zheng Laocai, his eyes full of confusion. At this moment, he saw the boy standing next to the woman with a sharp look.

He ran over with a smile, took the boy's hand and asked happily: "Brother, do you want to play with me?"

"Xiaobao! Come back!" Li Yiyi saw Xiaobao holding the little boy's hand and immediately scolded him loudly.

Xiaobao was startled and hid backward with fear in his eyes.

Li Yiyi ran up and grabbed Xiaobao's arm and tried to pull him back, but Xiaobao cried and shouted that he wanted to play with his brother and was unwilling to let go of the boy's hand.

When Zheng Laocai saw this scene, he quickly pulled Li Yiyi away and stood in front of the children.

"What on earth are you going to do? Can't you see that Xiaobao doesn't want to go with you?"

"Zheng Laocai! That's my son! When did you introduce this little bastard to Xiaobao?!"

"That's enough! Xiaobao and Qi'er are brothers, so what's wrong with them getting to know each other earlier? But you're the one who keeps pestering me. What on earth do you want to do?"

Li Yiyi recalled Zheng Laocai's behavior and what Xiaobao said during this period of time, and then she realized that she was the only one in the family who didn't know that her husband had a son outside, and she was the only one who was kept in the dark!

"Hahahaha, Zheng Laocai, you have such a cruel heart!" Li Yiyi laughed in anger and looked at Zheng Laocai viciously.

When Ban You saw Li Yiyi like this, she felt very sorry for her. She walked up to Li Yiyi, supported her and comforted her.

Li Yiyi closed her eyes, took a deep breath for a while, then opened her eyes and looked at Zheng Laocai.

"Tomorrow we'll get a divorce. The shop and the house are mine. They all belong to me. Xiaobao... if you don't want to be with me, then you can give them to me!"

When Zheng Laocai saw Li Yiyi's expression, he knew in his heart that she had made up her mind.

He looked at Li Yiyi, and there was no longer the affection in his eyes as before.

"We'll see you at the government office tomorrow."

Zheng Laocai took the woman and two children out, and Li Yiyi finally collapsed to the ground.

Ban You looked at Li Yiyi, who was now extremely sad, and suddenly remembered that she was so cheerful when he first met her.

"Sister Li, let me take you back."

Li Yiyi shook her head: "Sister, wait for a while, I'll go get you the money first, business is more important."

Ban You helped Li Yiyi to her bedroom. Li Yiyi took out a cloth bag from her makeup box and handed it to Ban You.

"Here are ten taels of silver. I give them to you."

Ban You looked at the ten taels of silver and didn't know what to say for a moment.

She walked forward, hugged Li Yiyi and said softly, "Sister Li, I'm here. If you want to cry, just cry. It's okay."

I don’t know whether what Ban You said touched Li Yiyi or she could no longer bear it, but as soon as Ban You finished speaking, Li Yiyi lay in Ban You’s arms and burst into tears.
