Raising My Children With My Personal Spatial Ability

Chapter 174: Are You Really Going to Divorce Me?

The Junior Officer did not allow them to go as it was unsafe. Two people from Old An’s family had gone outside the village, and Ministry Councilor He had also brought his people.

However, the nosy villagers insisted and kept pestering the Junior Officer, telling him they would stand further away to watch. The Junior Officer wanted to teach everyone a lesson, so he did not stop them in the end.

Everyone stood far away and watched Old An’s family drama.

At first, the Chief’s eldest son thought this matter had nothing to do with them and rushed home after patrolling.

However, there was a troublemaker at home!

!!
“Mother, how could you? My son would’ve been swept away by the flood if not for An Jiuyue. Even if Uncle An Tu saving my brother’s life doesn’t mean anything to you, you should still consider the fact that An Jiuyue saved your grandson!”

An Jiuyue had pulled many villagers out of the floodwaters. Everybody was grateful to her.

“Did I ask her to save him? She was the one who wanted to save him. How is that my problem?” Aunt Kang muttered indignantly.

I just don’t like An Jiuyue. What’s wrong with that? It’s not like I’m in anyone’s way when I deal with her. Will it stop the villagers from going about their daily lives?

The Chief’s eldest son was shocked.

Does it serve my son right if he was really swept away by the flood? He’s her biological grandson!

His expression darkened instantly. He closed his eyes to stop himself from shouting at his mother impulsively.

“Alright, I understand. It’s only right for others to help you. But if you help them, they should be grateful and even give up their lives to you, right?”

“W-what are you talking about?”

Aunt Kang glared at her eldest son. She was furious and wanted to hit him.

However, the Chief did not want to waste any more time on her. He said, “He’s telling the truth. Don’t you think so secretly?”

“I…”

She opened her mouth, unable to refute anything. Indeed, she thought so in her heart.

But she would never say that out loud.

“You don’t have to waste time here. Hurry up and pack your things. Go back to your parents’ house. My house is too small for a big Buddha like you!”

“You… are you really going to divorce me?” she asked, doubtful, her lips trembling.

She thought the Chief was just scaring her and would not actually divorce her.

He was already so old. How embarrassing would it be for him to divorce his wife so easily? She knew he was prideful—he would certainly not do it.

The Chief’s eldest son gaped.

From his point of view, he did not want this to happen at home. He also thought his father was only scaring his mother.

“Don’t you care about your reputation? Divorcing your wife is a scandal. You’ll lose face if word gets out,” Aunt Kang reminded the Chief.

The Chief’s expression darkened again.

“I’m definitely going to divorce you! So what if I’ll lose face? I’ve already lost all of it. I’ll still eat and drink as per normal. I’m not at the point where I’ll die!”

Losing face once is much better than losing face again and again, right?

This woman may cause trouble in the future if I give in to her this time. I don’t want to indulge her again and again.

“You didn’t tell me Jiuyue came to look for me last time and caused so many people to die! I should have divorced you then!”
