Back to the 1970s: Building My Fortune Through Time Trading-Chapter 372: Zhang Yulan Files for Divorce

Given Zhang Yulan’s mother-in-law and the man’s personality, how could they possibly let her leave easily with the children? Even if they wanted a divorce, they would probably keep the two children to manipulate her.

Zhang Yulan quickly realized the situation after Su Xiaoxiao’s reminder.

Although her mother-in-law and husband didn’t like the two daughters, they would never let her take both away easily.

After hearing Su Xiaoxiao’s plan, she nodded, "Okay, Xiaoxiao, sister will listen to you. This matter today is all thanks to you. In the future, if you need anything, I, Sister Zhang, will go through fire and water for you."

Zhang Yulan spoke sincerely, but Su Xiaoxiao quickly interrupted her, "Sister Zhang, don’t be polite with me because of our relationship. Otherwise, it’s like you don’t treat me as a friend."

She’s not Sun Wukong; there’s really no need to go through fire and water.

Zhang Yulan has a cousin who lives not far from here, and their relationship is usually quite good.

After discussing, they decided to send the children there to hide for a couple of days and pretend they hadn’t been found yet.

Once the children were settled, they returned to the communal building.

Upon entering, they found that Liu Chunxiang and Zhang Defa didn’t even go out, as if the missing children had nothing to do with them.

Zhang Yulan’s forehead veins bulged, wanting to tear these beasts apart right then.

Su Xiaoxiao secretly pinched the palm of her hand, and she barely managed to suppress her anger.

Zhang Defa’s favored widow had already left, and seeing Zhang Yulan return, he hurriedly greeted her and feigned concern, "Yulan, have the children been found?"

Zhang Yulan suppressed her nausea and put on a devastated face, shaking her head forcefully, "No, I reported to the police, they told me to come back and wait for news."

Upon hearing about the police report, Liu Chunxiang immediately jumped from the sofa, "Why did you report to the police for such a small matter? They might have just run off somewhere to play and will come back when hungry. You better go tell the police the kids are at a relative’s place and cancel the report."

Zhang Defa also advised, "Yulan, Mom is right. Every child plays outside, and when tired, they know to come back; no need to call the police."

The mother and son persuaded her, rarely showing this much humility.

Zhang Yulan’s heart chilled, fearing their act would be exposed.

She flung off Zhang Defa, who tried to grab her, erasing her last bit of hesitation, "Zhang Defa, let’s get a divorce."

"What? You want to divorce my son?"

Zhang Defa hadn’t reacted yet, Liu Chunxiang immediately stood from the sofa, "You’re just second-hand goods who’s given birth to two children, you think if you divorce my son anyone else will want you? Look at yourself, talking about divorce!"

Liu Chunxiang looked contemptuous, while Zhang Defa still pretended, "Yulan, what are you saying? We’re living well, why divorce?"

"Moreover, if you divorce, how will a woman like you, with children, manage?"

Zhang Defa seemed to dissuade, but every word degraded Zhang Yulan.

These days, a divorced woman gets talked about behind her back, and even if Zhang Yulan doesn’t consider herself, she has to think about the children.

Zhang Defa wasn’t much attached, considering her a free housekeeper as she worked in a department store and managed the home well despite the lack of affection.

"Children? You have the audacity to bring up children? We haven’t even found Juanjuan and Niuniu, if anything happens to my daughters, we’ll all die together..."

Zhang Yulan said with a cold smile.

"As a daughter-in-law, you dare threaten mother-in-law and husband? Just a couple of girls, gone is gone, who doesn’t lose a few nowadays..."

"Smack~"

Before Liu Chunxiang finished, a heavy slap landed on her face, she stared wide-eyed in disbelief, "It’s reversed, reversed, you bitch dare hit me! Son, see your wife dares lay hands on your mother, why are you just standing there?"

Zhang Defa didn’t expect the usually meek Zhang Yulan to suddenly hit his mom; his face turned dark, "Yulan, you’re crazy! You dare hit my mom!"

As soon as he said that, another slap from Zhang Yulan came over, satisfying!

She’d wanted to beat these beasts for a long time, enduring too long for her children, now she is done enduring.

"Son, son, are you okay?"

Liu Chunxiang saw her precious son hit, more upset than her own pain, she rushed to fight Zhang Yulan, but Su Xiaoxiao blocked her.

"Darn girl, this is family business, what are you interfering in? Get out or I’ll beat you too."

Beside, Zhang Defa came back to himself, standing behind Liu Chunxiang with a dark face, he’d been hit by a nagging wife.

If he could swallow this, was he still a man?

"Let’s talk, we’re all family..."

Su Xiaoxiao feigned mediating.

"Who do you think you are? My family’s affairs aren’t yours!"

Liu Chunxiang couldn’t calm down because of Zhang Yulan’s slap, she pushed Su Xiaoxiao hard.

Su Xiaoxiao seized the chance and fell to the ground, "Ouch, my back feels like it’s broken."

Liu Chunxiang: "..."

She merely shoved the girl, how could she break her spine, this darn girl must be pretending.

"Sister Zhang, ouch, I can’t take it, help me up, you know I just became a sales manager, can’t break my back now."

Liu Chunxiang initially wanted to grab her off the ground, but stopped hearing the word manager.

Didn’t expect this young girl to be a store manager.

The common folk see managers as big shots, not to be offended.

Besides, she hoped Zhang Yulan would offer her a job.

Her expression changed, urgently instructing Zhang Defa to help, "Son, hurry and lend a hand to the manager, you see what happened, it wasn’t on purpose, manager, please don’t mind."

Moments ago calling her a brat, now showing respect.

Su Xiaoxiao didn’t expect her new position would work so well.

She pretended to be in pain, holding her back, "Well, I came kindly to see my employee, and you treated me like this? This isn’t over, when I return, I’ll report and fire Zhang Yulan."

Liu Chunxiang was dumbfounded, that wouldn’t do, if Zhang Yulan loses her job, what about her daughter?

She hurried forward with a ingratiating smile, "Well... Manager, don’t be angry, let’s discuss this, my daughter-in-law can’t lose her job, we can offer compensation."

Upon hearing this, Su Xiaoxiao discreetly exchanged a glance with Zhang Yulan, they were waiting for this exact line.
