I transmigrated to the 1970s and became the female lead's vicious stepsister.

"Meili, I made millet porridge and boiled eggs for you and your son..." Zhao Yongjie pushed open the door and was stunned when he saw the people in the room.

But when he heard them telling Xu Meili to divorce him, Zhao Yongjie naturally disagreed.

"I do not agree to a divorce!"

"Meili, we're both getting old, what's the point of all this fuss? It'll just make us a laughingstock."

They've been together for ten years and have a son. Why would he get a divorce? He can't bear the shame.

Besides, he knew it would be difficult to find a woman like Xu Meili again.

For Zhao Yongjie, both of his sons were married, and only his daughter was still unmarried. For the rest of his life, he and Meili could just focus on raising their youngest son. He didn't understand why Xu Meili didn't understand him and insisted on arguing with him.

He couldn't possibly ignore the child he had with his ex-wife, just as he hadn't stopped Xu Meili from taking care of Su Lingwu.

They were finally getting along well, so why are they getting a divorce?

Zhao Yongjie thought that he and his mother could live in the current house with Xu Meili's youngest son, while his own place would be left for his eldest and second sons, one room for each son. His youngest daughter was also about to get married, so she could stay there for a while until she got married.

Su Lingwu has also gotten married and can't possibly come back.

From now on, it will just be the four of them living here with Xu Meili. Isn't that great?

In fact, the Zhao family members all had their own selfish motives when they learned that Xu Meili had bought a house.

Needless to say, the old lady naturally wanted to come and enjoy her retirement.

Over there, the old lady had to squeeze in with her grandchildren, and she couldn't even turn over in bed. But here, she can have her own room. How wonderful!

The eldest and youngest sons of the Zhao family were thinking that it would be best to move in after they won the house; the courtyard here was much better than the one over there.

Zhao Nana also wants to get married in a beautiful house. If she lived here, she would probably find it easier to find a partner.

Zhao Yongjie was thinking that he would bring his mother to live with him, and his two sons would live there, so the four of them could live together here.

It just goes to show that they're all family, a den of snakes and rats.

They are all coveting what doesn't belong to them.

No wonder Xu Meili felt disheartened and wanted to move out, not wanting to get involved with them.

I never expected the Zhao family to be so greedy, setting their sights on their daughter's house.

"You disagree?"

"How dare you say such a thing!"

"I think you deserve a beating. Look what you've done to Meili and the child. Are you even a man? You let your family humiliate your wife and son like this."

"Oh, I forgot, you don't need this one son, you have three other children, they're the most important, aren't they!"

Su Wu was furious when he saw Zhao Yongjie.

I thought my ex-wife would be happy with Zhao Yongjie, but little did I know he was a despicable person.

Zhao Yongjie, angered by Su Wu's words, retorted, "Su Wu, what right do you have to talk to me like that!"

"If you were perfect in every way, Xu Meili wouldn't want to divorce you!"

The two men couldn't stand each other.

"I'm not qualified, you..."

"Okay!"

"You don't feel ashamed, but I do!"

"If you want to argue, go outside and argue!"

Seeing that the two men were about to fight, Xu Meili sternly stopped them.

There were other patients and their families in the ward, craning their necks to watch the spectacle.

"Uncle Zhao!"

"I call you Uncle Zhao not because you are so worthy of my respect, but because of my mother and Guoyao."

"Do you know how I felt when I came home and saw your Zhao family living in my house?"

"I want to ask you, you Zhao family members have your own houses but don't live in them, so you all come to live in my house. How are you any different from thieves?"

"I don't have time to go into the details now, but I will check everything when I get back. I will make sure you compensate me for everything that is missing from the house and all the things you have damaged."

"Don't think that's the end of it!"

"Now that I'm back, if I hadn't, were you Zhao family planning to occupy my house indefinitely?"

"I thank you for taking care of my mother in the hospital these days, but let's keep things separate. I won't give you the house."

"I don't believe you're unaware of what your family has been doing, but you're just turning a blind eye. No matter how you look at it, your Zhao family hasn't suffered any losses."

"But let me tell you, I won't let this go. That's my house, my man bought it for me, my mom and brother live there willingly. Who do you Zhao family members think you are, daring to say that it's your Zhao family's house!"

"They've gotten addicted to robbing! Last time it was jobs, this time they're even robbing houses!"

"It's true what they say, when the mountain king is away, the monkeys reign supreme."

"How come I didn't know that my house was registered under the Zhao family name?"

"Let me tell you, even if your whole family changes their surname to Su and calls me 'Mom,' you still won't get a share of this house!"

"Go home and tell your whole family, just you wait, this isn't over yet!"

Zhao Yongjie's dignity and face were completely exposed by his stepdaughter, leaving him looking both red and pale.

"Lingwu, why do you have to be so ruthless? Your mother and I still have to live our lives. You're doing this..."

Xu Meili, who had been looking down, suddenly raised her head, her eyes becoming firm.

"Zhao Yongjie, I am officially informing you that we are getting a divorce, and from now on I have nothing to do with your Zhao family."

"I'm taking Guoyao with me. You have three children who are more than enough to support you in your old age."

Xu Meili felt that she had been wrong all along, terribly wrong. She shouldn't have remarried after her divorce, and she was the one who caused this situation.

If she doesn't sever ties with the Zhao family soon, there will be more trouble in the future, and she can't keep making her daughter worry about her.

Originally, she thought it wouldn't be good for her to get a divorce right after her daughter got married, but when she saw that her daughter and son-in-law had specially come back for her sake, Xu Meili felt extremely guilty.

"Beautiful, you..."

"Meili, you can't be so foolish. The child will leave us one day, and then it will still be just the two of us. If you divorce me, how will you manage with your son?"

"Do you intend to go back and find Su Wu?"

Su Wu, whose name was called, was stunned for a moment, a struggle flashing in his eyes.

Zhao Yongjie felt that his stepdaughter was interfering too much and causing unrest in the family.

"What nonsense are you talking about!"

"Cough cough!" Xu Meili coughed in anger.

"mom!"

Su Lingwu quickly poured Xu Meili a glass of water and secretly added a drop of spiritual spring water.

After drinking the water, Xu Meili felt much better.

"Hmph, whatever I do is better than living with you. At least no one is after my mother's job, her house, or her money. If I continued living with you, I'd probably lose my life. Your Zhao family is a den of wolves!"

"I'll naturally take care of my mom!"

"You don't need to worry about it. Once my mother is discharged from the hospital, you two can get a divorce."

"Uncle Zhao, I can take my mother-in-law and Guoyao with me to accompany the army."

Fu Linchuan naturally supported his wife's decision; that was what he had originally thought as well.

Xu Meili's eyes reddened when she heard her daughter and son-in-law's words.

"Xu Meili, so that's why you insisted on divorcing my son. So you've found someone else. And who is this lover of yours now!" The old lady of the Zhao family barged in, dragging a figure with her.
