The heavens set sail from the courtyard

Zhuang Chaoying and Huang Ling had a fierce quarrel in the guest room of Xie's house. Xie Huayuan's family downstairs heard the noise and all looked at Wang Gang.

Wang Gang was helpless, knowing that it was inappropriate to cause such a scene in someone else's home, so he could only run to the guest room to stop the fight.

But before trying to stop the fight, Wang Gang first found Zhuang Xiaoting and asked her about her attitude towards her parents' divorce.

"Brother, I don't care who you are with. I will live with mom anyway." Zhuang Xiaoting was very determined and didn't even have the intention of persuading her parents to reconcile.

"Have you really thought it through?" Wang Gang asked, pulling his sister to sit down.

"My parents have quarreled more than once or twice. I have a feeling that they will separate sooner or later." Zhuang Xiaoting said casually:

Although I don’t want the family to break up, I also want my mother to be happy.”

Wang Gang touched Zhuang Xiaoting's head and sighed: "You have grown up."

Zhuang Xiaoting asked weakly: "Brother, if my mother and I come to Shanghai to seek refuge with you, will you agree?"

Wang Gang laughed and said, "Silly girl, even if your parents are divorced, you are still my sister, how can I ignore you?"

Zhuang Xiaoting said happily: "That's all."

Xiang Pengfei also interrupted at this time: "Brother Tunan, will you take care of me?"

Wang Gang said angrily: "Go away, why are you here to make trouble?"

After sending the two children away, Wang Gang went straight to the guest room to stop the parents from arguing any further.

"Mom and Dad, when you discuss divorce, shouldn't you also ask for my and Xiaoting's opinions?"

Zhuang Chaoying and Huang Ling shut up at the same time. Zhuang Chaoying thought Wang Gang didn't want his parents to divorce, and when he was about to speak, Wang Gang said:
"Xiaoting and I agree to your divorce. Anyway, I'm already in college, and you don't have to be responsible for me in the future. Xiaoting is willing to live with her mother."

Zhuang Chaoying opened his mouth wide, feeling as uncomfortable as if he had eaten a fly.

"Tuanan, you really want me to divorce your mother." Zhuang Chaoying screamed.

Wang Gang shrugged and said, "You have been arguing for so many years, aren't you tired? If you can't get along as a couple, just break up! Otherwise, you will get tired of each other."

Zhuang Chaoying sat down on the chair dejectedly, muttering to himself: "I just don't understand. I have been very kind to you and your two children, why do you end up being deserted by everyone?"

Wang Gang sneered: "Dad, it's already this time, why are you pretending to be confused?"

Zhuang Chaoying looked up in surprise and said, "Why should I pretend to be stupid?"

Wang Gang asked Huang Ling to sit down first, and then said: "You know all the injustices my mother has suffered from my father and grandmother for so many years, but you always pretend to be ignorant. It is your attitude that makes my mother sad the most."

Huang Ling was moved and held Wang Gang's hand. With red eyes, she said, "Son, you understand me better than your father."

Zhuang Chaoying frowned, still looking a little resentful.

"I just don't understand why you are so resentful towards Grandma and Dad. After all, they are the elders. What's wrong with us, the younger generation, suffering a little loss?"

Wang Gang shook his head and smiled bitterly: "If you want to suffer a loss, that's your business. Why do you ask your wife and children to suffer a loss as well? Have you asked for our opinions?"

"Tunan, Dad and Grandma have liked you since you were a child and have been very good to you. Do you feel guilty for saying this?"

Huang Ling protected Wang Gang and said, "If you have any anger, take it out on me, don't make things difficult for the child."

Zhuang Chaoying said helplessly: "I didn't want to embarrass the child, I just wanted to reason with him."

Wang Gang asked his mother to step aside, and faced Zhuang Chaoying alone and said, "Dad, you must be tired of being stuck between my mom and my father and grandma for all these years!"

Zhuang Chaoying was stunned, and his heart was slightly warmed, thinking that his son still cared about him. Wang Gang continued: "Since you are tired, just leave. Xiaoting and I have made a choice. We will visit you during the holidays in the future."

Zhuang Chaoying opened his mouth in shock and said stupidly, "Why? I think I am a qualified father and have never treated you two unfairly. Why did you abandon me?"

Wang Gang shook his head and said, "Xiaoting and I didn't abandon you. It's just that between you two, Xiaoting and I chose mom."

Zhuang Chaoying was so shocked that he leaned back in his chair, unable to utter a word.

Wang Gang continued: "Dad, don't be surprised by our choice. People are selfish. If we follow you, Xiaoting and I will inevitably be influenced by our father and grandmother. We may even be forced by you to be filial to them and be kidnapped by family affection.

But my mother is different from you. In her heart, we are more important than anything else, even her own life. Whether for ourselves or for my mother, we will not choose you. "

Zhuang Chaoying opened his mouth with difficulty and asked: "Do you and Xiaoting hate me so much?"

Wang Gang sighed and said, "You are our father, of course we don't hate you, but we are closer to our mother."

Zhuang Chaoying felt like a bereaved mother and was completely unable to utter a word.

Once some things are said, there is no room for maneuver. Huang Ling felt more confident when she saw that her children supported her divorce.

Zhuang Chaoying didn't want to lose everything, so he chose to escape. He rushed out of the Xie family and fled back to Suzhou alone.

Huang Ling naturally couldn't just leave. She apologized to the Xie family and then returned to Suzhou with Zhuang Xiaoting and Xiang Pengfei.

Wang Gang sent the three people to the station and then gave Huang Ling a thousand yuan.

"Mom, no matter what decision you make, I will support you. If Dad and Grandma make too much trouble, you can hide in Shanghai. I will always be your strong support." Wang Gang said:
"I have decided to buy the house next to the Xie family."

Huang Ling was surprised and asked, "Didn't you say that buying that house would be risky?"

Wang Gang said confidently: "Don't worry, I can handle it."

Huang Ling gritted her teeth and said, "Son, I don't think you need to buy such a nice house right away. Why not buy a smaller one first?"

Wang Gang held his mother's shoulders and said seriously: "Mom, just put your mind at ease. You protected me before, and now I will protect you."

Huang Ling was deeply moved and said goodbye to Wang Gang reluctantly.

After returning to Suzhou, Huang Ling found that Zhuang Chaoying had not returned home, so she asked Xiang Pengfei to go to his father and grandmother's house to call Zhuang Chaoying back.

As soon as Xiang Pengfei left, Wu Shanshan from the Wu family next door came to visit.

"Auntie Huang Ling, did you go to Shanghai to visit Brother Tuanan? Why didn't he come back during the summer vacation?" Wu Shanshan saw that Huang Ling was a little shy.

"Shanshan! Tunan has to work part-time while studying, so he won't be back during the summer vacation. I brought some things from Shanghai, you can take some home later." Huang Ling took out a bag of Shanghai-style pastries from her luggage.

Wu Shanshan took the pastry and said with a little disappointment: "I thought Brother Tunan would come back this time? I can see him."

Zhuang Xiaoting smiled and said, "My brother has to tutor Sister Lingling during the summer vacation, so he doesn't have time to come back."

Wu Shanshan was shocked when she heard this and asked, "Who is Sister Lingling?"

Huang Ling explained: "Lingling is the daughter of Tunan's landlord. Tunan usually helps her with her homework."

Wu Shanshan felt a little uneasy.

"Sister Shanshan, let me tell you, Sister Lingling's house is huge. There are four or five rooms alone, and there is even a flush toilet."

Zhuang Xiaoting excitedly told Wu Shanshan about her experiences in Shanghai, but she didn't notice that Wu Shanshan's face was getting worse and worse. (End of this chapter)
