Chapter 333 Agreeing to Divorce and Remarriage

Ji Lan stared wide-eyed at Chu Wenzhu in disbelief, repeating what she had just heard.

"What, what did you say?"

Chu Wenzhu sighed and then spoke.

“According to my information, Yalan’s family may be in trouble. In addition, she is Minghe’s wife. If the situation becomes more and more unstable, we won’t be able to save Yalan. While things are still relatively calm now, we should get rid of her as soon as possible. This will not only save her, but also her family.”

After Chu Wenzhu's persuasion, Ji Lan remained silent for a long time before speaking.

"But what about Minghe?"

Chu Wenzhu shook her head and said.

“We have no choice but to get a divorce. Minghe has already wronged Yalan. This time, we can’t just stand by and watch Yalan go because of him. The best solution now is for Dad to help Yalan find a military officer.”

This was the result of Chu Wenzhu's careful consideration.

In the current situation, only those in the military can protect someone of Yalan's status. The only downside is that it will be even harder for Yalan to get promoted if she finds another partner.

Ji Lan grew up in a compound and knew all about these intricacies.

However, Ji Lan was more concerned about Zhao Yalan than the other party. Besides, they wouldn't force anyone to marry Zhao Yalan. They would only try to matchmake them if the other party was interested in Zhao Yalan.

Ji Lan shook hands and finally spoke.

"Okay. But we still need to see what Yalan has to say."

Chu Wenzhu nodded.

Although he had already planned out his eldest daughter-in-law's future, it was still up to Zhao Yalan to decide.

Chu Wenzhu arranged for Zhao Yalan not only to protect her, but also for the sake of Chu Huaying, the eldest grandson.

This is his first grandchild. If nothing unexpected happens, she will also be Chu Minghe's only child.

After his divorce from Ji Lan, no matter what Zhao Yalan's family said, they couldn't stay with Ji Lan.

Chu Wenzhu didn't know what his future held. He felt it wouldn't be good. That's why he decisively split up the Chu family.

Now, the only ones whose future is uncertain are the eldest daughter-in-law and the eldest grandson. Once Zhao Yalan is settled, Chu Huaying's problem will be solved.

Therefore, Chu Wenzhu had many thoughts to consider.

Seeing that Ji Lan had agreed, Chu Wenzhu said to Ji Lan.

"Xiao Lan, call Ya Lan over now, let's ask her opinion. The situation is getting worse, we need to resolve this as soon as possible."

Ji Lan nodded.

After Chu Wenzhu's analysis, Ji Lan also felt that this was the best solution.

However, Zhao Yalan still needs to agree to the matter herself.

Zhao Yalan was in a daze when Ji Lan called her over.

Upon seeing Chu Wenzhu, Zhao Yalan knew she had something important to tell her.

Zhao Yalan's heart was immediately in her throat.

The Chu family has been making quite a stir these past few days. She could vaguely guess what was going on, but she didn't say much about it.

What worries her most is that when she last visited her parents' home, her mother gave her most of the family's assets. She was also allowed to bring back the gold and jewelry that her mother had given her as part of her dowry.

In particular, the worry on my father's face deepened day by day.

She had a sense of urgency, like a storm was brewing.

Chu Wenzhu looked at her gentle eldest daughter-in-law and sighed.

Finally, he revealed his plan.

After hearing this, Zhao Yalan kept her head down.

No wonder my mother insisted on giving me all the family's assets.

No wonder my father is getting more and more worried.

Unbeknownst to her, undercurrents were already swirling outside.

Thinking about her father-in-law's strange behavior recently, Zhao Yalan suddenly understood.

Seeing Zhao Yalan remain silent, Ji Lan assumed that the other party was unwilling and immediately became anxious.

Now that things are so urgent, there's no time to worry about romance. Although she feels somewhat guilty towards her adopted eldest son, it's clear that Zhao Yalan has been the one who suffered the most these past few years.

Now, we can't put Zhao Yalan in a difficult position because of our eldest son. So, Ji Lan advised.

“Yalan, it’s not that your parents are trying to ruin your relationship with Minghe, but we have no choice but to do this now. It’s about your own safety.”

Chu Wenzhu nodded as well.

Unlike Ji Lan, Chu Wenzhu didn't think Zhao Yalan was being unfair to her eldest son. On the contrary, her eldest son would owe his wife a debt of gratitude.

Zhao Yalan is a very kind person. As long as she is settled, she won't abandon Chu Huaying.

Even if she eventually had other children, it would still be better for Chu Huaying than for her to stay in the Chu family.

If the Ji family had no men serving in the military, Chu Wenzhu would have wanted to adopt Chu Huaying into the Ji family.

It may not sound nice, but living with dignity is more important than anything else.

Zhao Yalan looked up, her face already streaked with tears.

She looked at Chu Wenzhu and Ji Lan gratefully and said.

"Mom and Dad, thank you for planning for me."

Chu Wenzhu and Ji Lan had already explained the situation to her. Zhao Yalan knew that the future of her son and her family now rested on her shoulders.

If the Chu family is in such a state, her maternal family must be in even worse shape.

Zhao Yalan was, after all, a university teacher. Even if she wasn't an expert in politics, she could still figure out the intricacies of the situation.

Now, both her husband's family and her own family are potential sources of trouble. She is the only way out.

After thinking it through, Zhao Yalan wiped away her tears and said to Chu Wenzhu and Ji Lan.

"Mom and Dad, I'll listen to you. But don't worry, even if I divorce Minghe, I will still take good care of Huaying."

Hearing Zhao Yalan's assurance, Chu Wenzhu and Ji Lan nodded excitedly.

The couple helped Zhao Yalan so much not only because of her own reasons, but also partly because of Chu Huaying.

There's no need to say anything about Chu Wenzhu; he's the eldest grandson of the Chu family, and he has to protect him no matter what.

Although Ji Lan and Chu Huaying are not related by blood, Ji Lan has genuinely treated Chu Huaying as her own grandson over the years they have spent together. Chu Minghe and Chu Mingkai respect their stepmother very much, and she harbors no ill will towards Chu Huaying.

If Zhao Yalan had disagreed, Chu Wenzhu and Ji Lan would have already figured out how to persuade her.

After saying that, Chu Wenzhu said to Zhao Yalan.

"You should get a divorce from Minghe tomorrow."

Ji Lan frowned and asked.

"With Minghe not here, can we get a divorce?"

Chu Wenzhu nodded, her eyes falling on the small square box he had brought, and said to the two of them.

"Don't worry, you can get a divorce!"

Neither Chu Wenzhu nor Ji Lan considered sending a letter to Chu Minghe, nor did they consider seeking Chu Minghe's opinion.

What a joke! It's so late already, there's no time to send a letter!

Besides, even if you send the letter, so what? You'll never receive a reply anyway.

As for whether Chu Minghe agreed or not, Chu Wenzhu felt his opinion was no longer important. At most, he would explain the matter to his second son and tell him not to hold a grudge against Zhao Yalan.

After explaining everything, Chu Wenzhu gave Ji Lan a final instruction.

"Tell Dad to help Yalan find someone. Other conditions aren't important; the most important thing is to have some status in the military."

Ji Lan nodded.

Zhao Yalan nodded as well.

She doesn't care about formalities anymore; as long as the other person is a good person and can tolerate Hua Ying, she's willing to accept it.

After Chu Wenzhu left, Ji Lan took Zhao Yalan's hand and said...

"It is our Chu family that has wronged you."

Zhao Yalan shook her head, tears welling in her eyes. She didn't resent the Chu family. After all, at this time, which in-laws would be better than Chu Wenzhu and Ji Lan, making their daughter-in-law divorce their son and even helping her find a blind date?

Zhao Yalan was extremely grateful.
