Rebirth to a Military Marriage: Good Morning Chief

Chapter 1902: After the Divorce

Their family could not do without Zhai Hua as a daughter-in-law. Once Zhai Hua was no longer her daughter-in-law, she would never be so nice as to give her a thousand five hundred yuan of monthly allowance. Besides, she had never lacked any new clothing during the new year.

For her son and for her own sake, Mother Wei felt that kneeling down to beg Zhai Hua for forgiveness meant nothing. She would do anything to get Zhai Hua to agree to not get a divorce. "I promise that I'll only treat Jiajia well from now on. How's that?"

Zhai Hua cared a lot about her daughter. She had never treated her granddaughter, Jiajia, well in the past. But as long as Zhai Hua did not get a divorce, she was willing to treat Jiajia well and treat Zhai Hua and her daughter like her ancestors.

She had not expected that her daughter-in-law, who had treated her so well for the past ten years, would be so stubborn once she threw a tantrum and would insist on getting a divorce.

At this time, Mother Wei regretted not having treated Zhai Hua and Jiajia better in the past. Mother Wei was clear that Zhai Hua had never thrown her weight around just because she was the chief's daughter and had never thrown a tantrum toward her even if she had any problems.

But there was no way she could force Zhai Hua to listen to her like she did Wei Xiaomei. Since she could not control Zhai Hua like she did Wei Xiaomei, Mother Wei could only treat Zhai Hua and Jiajia nicely, in hopes that Zhai Hua would change her mind.

"I'm not Zhai Hua. How would I know if she'll agree to it?" Wei De paced around the house in a panic. "That's impossible. She'll never agree to it. She'll definitely want to get a divorce. She already knows that Xiao Wei is my son. I think that there's no way of changing the situation now. Zhai Hua doesn't even want to meet me."

He had been extremely careful while he had been dating Zhai Hua and had never even told Zhai Hua about how he had a sister who 'had gotten pregnant out of wedlock' and how he had a 'fatherless nephew'.

He did not understand how he had gradually started living the life he wanted after getting married to Zhai Hua. It seemed as though this lifestyle had gotten to his head. Even while knowing Zhai Hua's temper, he had still treated Wei Wei better than Jiajia. Had he been out of his mind in these ten years?

If he had been more careful and had pampered Zhai Hua and her daughter, and if he had not brought Wei Xiaomei and Wei Wei over and had instead left them far away from him, this situation would never have happened.

He would have been living a peaceful and beautiful life with Zhai Hua.

Wei De could not help but stare at his favorite son, Wei Wei. With this situation, Wei Wei had almost become a thorn in Wei De's side. He felt that it was entirely Wei Xiaomei's and Wei Wei's fault that his marriage with Zhai Hua had broken down.

"Don't panic. We'll deal with this one step at a time." The court summon had sent the Wei family into chaos. Father Wei was so frantic that he plucked a few strands of hair from his head. "Ah De, tell me what our family will be left with if you really get divorced from Zhai Hua."

Only by understanding what their family was left with would he be able to decide on how to continue with their lives. Even if there was no way of reversing the situation, they had to get on with their own lives, after all.

"What we will have? What else can our family have?" Wei De laughed sarcastically. "We'll have whatever we had before I got married to Zhai Hua. We won't have whatever we didn't have then."

"Who says so? We still have a house in the countryside! It's a three-storied villa!" At that time, their family had constructed the first three-storied house in the village. The villagers had been envious that she had given birth to a good son. A three-storied house in the village was equivalent to a small villa in a large city. Without Zhai Hua, the Wei family would not exactly be left with nothing.

"Yes, apart from that house in the countryside, we have nothing. So, after I get divorced from Zhai Hua, you'll have to return to the countryside." He had no means of buying a house for his parents here in Ping Cheng. Even if they rented a house, that would be a significant expense.

There was something else that worried Wei De the most. Wei Wei was studying in The High School Affiliated to Renmin University of China. His school fees had already been on the higher side. Now that society was more developed, there were more activities available for students in school too. But to participate in these activities, they had to pay school fees too, and they were no insignificant either!

In the past, with Zhai Hua giving his parents an allowance, his parents had been able to save a little. Zhai Hua had been the one paying for the family's daily expenses. As such, the money that his parents saved up was just enough to pay for Wei Wei's extracurricular activities.

Now, without Zhai Hua's allowance, it would be difficult for Wei Wei to complete his studies in The High School Affiliated to Renmin University of China for the rest of the year.

"You guys know just how much I get from the military every month. I always hand it all over to you. Zhai Hua has never touched a single cent of that. Do you think that I'll be able to provide for you in Ping Cheng? I can still afford to pay for the rest of Xiao Wei's high school fees if I try, but we'll have to see the kind of university Xiao Wei gets into with his results before we'll know if the Wei family will have a university graduate."

Because of his experience in society, Wei De knew that he would have to spend even more money on Wei Wei's education if his results were not stellar.

Thinking about Wei Wei's results, Wei De's expression darkened. He had spent a lot of money to let Wei Wei attend The High School Affiliated to Renmin University of China. His results were slightly better than they had been in junior high school, but it was still insufficient to get him into the best university so that he could turn the Wei family's situation around. Wei Wei had no talent in his studies and did not work hard enough either. All his results were due to their family spending money on him.

Without money and connections, Wei De had no hope for Wei Wei's future. Instead of hoping that his son would make something of himself, it would be better for him to take the plunge and see if he could secure himself the position of a vice battalion commander. He would have to wait until his next lifetime to fulfill his dream of becoming a regiment commander.

Although Wei Wei had always been the center of attention in the Wei family, the focus today was entirely different. In the past, the Wei family had always pampered and spoiled Wei Wei like a king. Even though Wei Wei was a fatherless child, Wei Wei felt like a little emperor at home.

At that time, he had not known that his uncle was actually his dad. Even so, he knew that his family would always try to satisfy his demands.
