"How can you do this! This is different from what we agreed back then! Xu Lan! You have to give me an explanation today! Otherwise, I'll go home and tell Father! I'll let him know how you bullied our family!" Xu Ju said as she looked at Xu Lan.
Xu Lan's father would vent his anger on Xu Lan's mother whenever he was in a bad mood. Xu Lan's mother was still in their hands, so Xu Lan could not offend Xu Ju and the rest. In the past, the entire Xu family relied on Xu Lan's salary and the Xia family's help to survive. The good thing was that a few years ago, Xia Mao opened a small shop for them in the village and they no longer asked Xu Lan for money. However, the Xu family continued to create trouble outside.
It was Xu Lan's filial piety which caused her to be controlled by them. Xu Lan had no choice but to give them whatever they wanted.
However, the matter today was different. This matter concerned the reputation of her children and the Xia family's status in society. Xu Lan pondered for a long time and decided not to let the Xia family be dragged down by the Xu family. At most, she would just divorce Xia Mao and go back to the Xu family. She just needed to endure a little bit of suffering for the rest of her life!
Now that the children had all started their own families, she was no longer worried about them. She just could not bear to part with the two babies, Xia Fan and Xia Xing.

When I go back to the Xu family, I'll have to rely on Eldest Sister and Eldest Brother-in-law to take care of me," Xu Lan said calmly to Xu Ju.
"What did you say? Go back where?" Xu Ju asked in puzzlement.
"I can't do what Eldest Sister wants me to do. The children have grown up and they won't listen to me now. I'm too ashamed to stay in the Xia family anymore. I'll divorce Xia Mao tomorrow. It's better for everyone this way," Xu Lan said, going all out.
Xia Wen, Xia He and Qiao Mei looked at Xu Lan in shock. They had expected Xu Lan to be joking, but she was speaking in all seriousness.
"What nonsense are you talking about! Do you children agree with her idea?" Xu Ju said agitatedly.
"Mother! What's wrong with you! What nonsense are you talking about!" Xia He grabbed Xu Lan's arm and questioned her.
Xia Wen also looked at Xu Lan without saying a word. Qiao Mei stopped to think for a moment and then said with a smile, "Mother, are you sure about getting a divorce? Alright! Let's ask Father to come back! Let's draft the divorce agreement!"
"Qiao Mei! Don't cause more trouble!" Xia He said angrily.
"I'm not causing trouble. Mother is an adult and not a child. She must have considered it carefully before she said anything. In that case, let's fulfill her wish. Since Eldest Aunt is also here, she can be the witness!" Qiao Mei said happily.
The Xu family could not afford to lose the support of the Xia family. Xu Ju had originally wanted to marry Xu Jiao off to one of the sons of the Xia family to ensure that the Xu family would be taken care of for a long time. However, none of the Xia family's boys liked Xu Jiao and did not want to discuss marriage at all, making her very troubled.
If Xu Lan and Xia Mao got a divorce, the Xu family would not be able to raise their heads for the rest of their lives in the village!
The Xu family bullied the rest of the villagers all the time and the two younger brothers of the Xu family even went around collecting protection fees! They had caused Xu Lan a lot of trouble all this while. If not for the fact that everyone showed respect to the Xia family, they would have gone to jail long ago instead of just getting a warning!

Xu Ju looked at the Xia family members in a state of panic. She looked at the silent Xia Wen and said, "You're the eldest son. Quick, advise your mother!"
"I respect my mother's decision," Xia Wen said.
"Eldest Brother! How can you do this too!" Xia He looked at Xia Wen in disbelief.
The more Qiao Mei thought about it, the more excited she became. She immediately said, "Oh my, there's still the issue of the assets! We have to work out everything clearly!"
"You wretched girl! How dare you eye your mother-in-law's assets!" Xu Ju pointed at Qiao Mei and shouted.
"That's the Xia family's money. I'm the third son's wife, so our family surely has a share of the Xia family's assets. I have to look out for my husband," Qiao Mei said with a smile.
"I don't want a single cent. I will leave with nothing," Xu Lan said.
"You! You! All of you! You're all crazy! All of you are crazy!" Xu Ju said as she looked at them in fear.
