Chapter 1001: No Divorce Allowed

Shi Youxuan: "What's difficult about that? There are plenty of people ordering all sorts of takeout to the hospital every day; just call and order a bowl."

Nianyin: "The heat isn't right for takeout, and you can't put in any precious medicinal herbs; it's better to stew it at home."

Shi Youxuan glared at her: "You're too worried about your aunt, you've gone silly. She just had surgery and can't eat anything for two days. The tonic we order is for our own beauty and nourishment; she just needs to smell the aroma."

Nianyin:...

That's right, just after surgery, before passing gas, one cannot eat anything, not even drink water in large gulps.

But isn't this trick a bit too wicked? They eat meat and drink soup while letting Mother smell the aroma?

Before she could speak, Shi Youxuan had already seen through Nianyin's thoughts, eyes wide, asking righteously: "Besides this, do you have a better explanation?"

Consequently, the guilt lessened quite a bit.

She gave her sister a thumbs up: "You're amazing."

Shi Family.

Most of the guests had left, with only two middle-aged women helping to clean up the mess.

The two of them grumbled while cleaning.

"Such a good happy event, and it turned into this. Nothing good ever happens since Shi Yuke woke up; it would have been better if she had just stayed silly."

"Exactly, what a good man Gu Zhihao is. Back then he didn't mind that she was a fool and married her, and now that she's just recovered, she turns her back on him and wants to kick Gu Zhihao out. A dog can't change its habit of eating dung; heartless people shouldn't get anything good, and if they do, they bite the hand that feeds them..."

"Oh, Old Shi, when did you get back?"

Shi Yucheng stood at the doorway, his expression unpleasant.

"I just got back, you're all finished?" He pretended he hadn't heard anything.

"Yes, just finished."

Badmouthing someone's daughter behind their back only to be heard by the father; this was a bit awkward.

The two hurriedly said goodbye: "Well, since you're back, we'll be going; we have to pick up our grandsons later."

"Right, I have to pick up my granddaughter too."

"Gu Zhihao drank a bit too much, you should pour him a glass of water."

The neighbors had all left, but Shi Yucheng was still thinking about what they had just said.

Could it be that the two of them are going to get a divorce?

Whatever you fear comes to pass; he had to find his daughter and ask clearly.

He first poured a glass of warm water, went upstairs, and followed the snoring to find the guest room.

The child was already a month old, yet the son-in-law was still living in the guest room, which meant the couple's relationship really had problems!

The son-in-law was sleeping soundly, so he didn't disturb him.

He just placed the water glass on the nightstand, took a nutritional pill for sobering up and liver protection, placed it beside it, and then pulled the quilt up to cover him.

They say a son-in-law is half a son, but he truly regarded Gu Zhihao as his own son.

The son-in-law was also truly good to him, usually showing concern, taking care of his tastes for all three meals, and never talking back. To be able to do this, even a biological son would be no better.

He sighed, closed the guest room door, and went to his daughter's room: "Knock, knock, knock."

Shi Yuke didn't expect her father to be back; she thought it was Gu Zhihao coming to "harass" her again.

Therefore, she said impatiently: "Don't pester me anymore, my mind is made up. I don't want the house or the money, I only want the child."

"Bang!"

Shi Yucheng stormed in: "Shi Yuke, if you want a divorce, wait until I'm dead."

"Dad, why is it you?"

"Surprised to see me? You've been bullying Zhihao just because I haven't been here these days, haven't you? Shi Yuke, has your conscience been eaten by a dog? During the years you were silly, if it weren't for him never leaving your side and taking care of you, could you have today?"

"Now that you've just recovered, you despise him. What right do you have to despise him? It's already good enough that he doesn't despise you..."

Shi Yuke's ears were almost calloused from hearing these words.

Since this period began, it wasn't just her father putting pressure on her; the gossip of the neighbors was also endless.

Everyone felt that Gu Zhihao marrying her back then was a supreme favor, and now she should return the kindness with gratitude.

Shi Yucheng shouted loudly, waking the child, who began to cry loudly.

"You should go out, the child is hungry." She used this excuse to send her father away.

Her daughter needed to breastfeed her grandson; it wasn't appropriate for him to stay.

Shi Yucheng closed the door and went out, sitting in the living room still furious.

"I'm so angry."

"I'm so angry."

"No, I absolutely cannot let her do whatever she wants and go back to her old ways!"

Half an hour later.

"Knock, knock, knock."

A knock sounded outside the door, it was her father again: "Yuke, come to the Study when you're free, I have something to discuss with you."

Study.

Ever since Shi Yucheng stopped living here, this place had become Gu Zhihao's territory, remodeled in a bizarre way.

The bookshelves were mostly filled with cookbooks, and various kitchen knives, pots, bowls, and spoons occupied "half the territory" of the Study.

Those classics and various rare books had been taken down from the most prominent places and piled randomly in the corner.

Shi Yucheng frowned slightly, but said nothing.

The father and daughter sat opposite each other.

Shi Yucheng asked his daughter in as calm a tone as possible: "Yuke, tell me your true inner thoughts, why must you get a divorce?"

Shi Yuke: "Our values don't align."

"I admit he is very good to me, but our living habits are almost completely different, and our ideas and hobbies are also completely different. You have seen it all; the Study has been turned into this state. Whose bookshelf would have a frying pan on it?"

Shi Yucheng: "If you are dissatisfied, you can tell him. Gu Zhihao is not an unreasonable person. If you talk to him properly, he will listen. But you don't communicate with him at all, you don't say anything, so how would he know what you are thinking?"

Shi Yuke: "I have said it, but it's useless. He thinks this is quite good, and he even tries every possible way to make me think the same way he does. I can't do it... Dad, just thinking about living a lifetime with such a person makes me feel irritable..."

"But when you were sick, you got along very well. He was not just your husband, but also your idol. At that time, whatever Zhihao did, you thought it was right. At that time, your values were very compatible. Why can't you continue?"

"Dad, you also said 'when I was sick.' When I was sick, my IQ was only five years old, but now I have recovered."

Shi Yucheng's patience completely vanished.

He slammed the table and stood up: "You say your values are incompatible now, why didn't you say that before? If it weren't for Zhihao taking care of you during those years when you were a fool, could you have today?"

Shi Yuke:...

So, after saying so much, the topic has returned to the starting point, right?

She ignored a very important point.

It is not just Gu Zhihao whose values are incompatible with hers, but also her father. With her father, it is not just incompatible values, but also a generation gap that cannot be crossed!

Shi Yuke shut her mouth and stopped speaking.

No matter what her father said, she did not defend herself, and of course, she would not change her mind.

The next day.

Gu Zhihao called his father-in-law: "Dad, Yuke wants to divorce me. She wants to take my children away. I don't agree..."

Those two words, Shi Yuke still brought them up to her husband.

She wants the children.

She wants both children.

They are both pieces of flesh that fell from her own body; she cannot bear to abandon either one. But this is not the most important thing; the most important thing is that she believes Gu Zhihao cannot provide the children with a very good educational environment.
