The next day, Huang Mude came to dinner, and the two of them ate the old hen from yesterday. She dug out some dried mushrooms, dried fungus and other dry goods from the cabinet, and then remembered that these were sent by Mrs. Lu. The dry goods were easy to preserve and tasted good. They were especially loved by Chen Yibin and Lu Yunhe.
Chen Yibing treated Huang Mude to a delicious meal of old hen stewed with mushrooms. The hen chicken had been stewed for a long time and was cooked with firewood, but neither of them chose that. When Huang Mude came, the house was already filled with fragrance. Chen Yiping hadn't fully recovered yet, so she spent half a day cooking two dishes, but the two of them were very satisfied with the meal.
After the meal, Chen Yibing asked Huang Mude to help put the dishes into the basin. She was heating hot water to wash the dishes. Huang Mude sat next to the restaurant for a while and asked, "Can I read Zhijie's book?"
Chen Yiping poured hot water into the wooden basin and put in a little soap powder without raising her head: "Please read as you like. I can't understand his book. It's just a decoration."
Huang Mude entered the study, and after a while, closed the door.
Chen Yibing finished washing the bowl and dug out a piece of ice cream brought from Pingcheng. This kind of ice cream is very popular among women in Pingcheng. The price is a little more expensive, but the effect is very good. In the next few years, almost everyone has it. Canned. Later, other brands of cream became popular for a while, and this old-fashioned one gradually declined. But Chen Yibing always liked this old brand. Later, when she was too poor and had nothing, she couldn't afford to use it. When she arrived in Manhattan, I can afford it, but it is not easy to buy such a decades-old cream in a foreign country. I often have to ask someone to bring it from home.
This smell has a faint fragrance, which she particularly likes. Her granddaughter Lillian once said she was an antique, but no one uses it anymore. She is the only one who is still so old-fashioned. Let her tell you, how do those little girls understand these old brands?
Chen Yiping wiped her fingers carelessly, thinking that after decades of poverty, her hands that were not wet with spring water would become extremely rough, and she would never be able to keep them back. When her hands touched her silk cheongsam, she was afraid that it would be scratched, just like the hands of the lowly maid in her family.
Chen Yiping thought of this and looked at her soft hands now. Although they have been a little rough due to housework in the UK for more than a year, they look like a pair of ladylike hands. If you take good care of them, they will return to the way they used to be. It looks extremely soft, so Chen Yiping is very careful when wiping her fingers.
When Huang Mude came out of the study carrying a few books, he gathered the letters that Lu Yunhe had hidden in the bookshelf into a few thick books. But he was afraid of falling from the pages, so he put the books together. The clothes were extremely tight, and the posture looked a bit funny. Huang Mude knew it himself, so he was a bit embarrassed. He tried his best to pretend that nothing happened, but he seemed even more cramped.
He said: "Can you lend me these books?"
Chen Yiping saw that Huang Mude was holding back his blush, and felt that Huang Mude was really not suitable for lying, but she still cooperated with him and pretended not to know anything, and said: "Okay, I can't understand you either. It’s just right to see.”
She glanced at the "Principles of Population" that Huang Mude had taken away, and felt that Lu Yunhe was really speechless. Should she say that he was infatuated with Gu Sinong or that he was a love saint? A few broken love letters made him so cautious, but he didn't even ask when his child was aborted.
Thinking that this person could take one look at his own son through the glass and then pretend to write poems about his love for his son. Chen Yibing felt like swallowing a fly when she thought about it. She really didn't like it. Understand, why do those women, especially the ladies who have experienced foreign ink, like people like Lu Yunhe?
Remembering that when she married Lu Yunhe, she also had expectations. At that time, she knew that Lu Yunhe was knowledgeable and did not want him to look down on her, so she proposed to wear a wedding dress that was only popular at that time, but her mother-in-law did not She agreed, and later Zhizhong embroidered dragons and phoenixes on her wedding dress, but when Lu Yunhe saw her, he still said that she was unfaithful and unscrupulous, which poured cold water on her heart as a newlywed.
For such a person, everyone praises him for his true gentlemanly demeanor. How can a gentleman mock others so directly? Not to mention that this other person is his own wife. I really can't understand what those women who like Lu Yunhe like about him?
Maybe it’s because she is old-fashioned, she doesn’t look like a middle-aged girl, and she was raised conservative by her mother. It’s obvious that he doesn’t like her, so he doesn’t have to act gentlemanly or manly to a woman he doesn’t like. Bar.
At the beginning, Chen Yibing could not admit that her husband did not like her. After the divorce, she realized that Lu Yunhe had no feelings of 'like' and 'love' for her, and now she can be regarded as a complete stranger. Treated.

Huang Mude left with the book under his arm. Chen Yibin took a rest for a while. After getting up, he turned on the lamp on the table, found some letter paper and a pen, and wrote a letter to his family, telling them what happened recently.
In her last life, she still had hope for Lu Yunhe. When she told the Lu family and the Chen family about Lu Yunhe's unfeeling love for her, she still had reservations. She believed that Lu Yunhe would still look back. She said too much and would harm his relationship with the family. It was too stiff, and besides, she had the old-fashioned concept of a woman at that time. She regarded her husband as her first priority and hid everything from him. As a result, Lu Yunhe didn't think well of her. And the result of her so-called making her husband the most important thing was that the sky fell, and she had to stand up to hold it up.
When it comes to writing letters now, Chen Yibing doesn’t hide anything at all, but when writing to the Lu family’s parents, she was more tactful and wrote:
"Two months ago, I vomited from time to time, and the symptoms were the same as when I gave birth to my baby. A few days later, I confirmed that I was pregnant, and I was very happy to share the news with Zhijie that we were about to have our second child. , but Zhijie asked me to have an abortion. He didn’t want the child, and he wanted to divorce me. I didn’t agree with the abortion. I know how much your elders are looking forward to this child, and I am also very happy, but because of my disagreement , Zhijie and I fell into a cold war. Two weeks later, when he saw my insistence, he ran away from home and abandoned me alone in the countryside of Schafer City. I had no money and was frightened. He asked someone to find Zhijie, but Zhijie avoided him. , I was hungry and cold. Although my fellow villagers could help me, Zhijie ignored me, which made me very sad. The child was eventually aborted, but Zhijie still ignored me. Please tell me, should I agree to a divorce?"
After writing the letter to the two elders of the Lu family, she wrote a letter to her eldest brother, second brother, and parents. The eldest brother and the second brother had been studying abroad since they were sixteen or seventeen years old, becoming the first batch of Chinese people to go abroad. Talented, he has been traveling around the country since returning to China in his twenties. In recent years, the second brother has taken up a job in Pingcheng, which is closer to his parents. The eldest brother has taken office at the Presidential Palace in Wangjing. We don’t see each other many times every year, but the brother and sister still have a good relationship. of.
She was very relaxed when she wrote to her family. Basically, she told the truth, including that Lu Yunhe brought home a female international student with bound feet. She was ready to accept her as his second wife, but Lu Yunhe filed for divorce. , and wanted to be the first person to divorce in China, and also asked her to have an abortion, etc. In short, she described his bad behavior, and then she asked at the end of the letter: "Lu Yunhe wants to divorce me and abandon me in a foreign country. I am in so much pain and I really don’t know what to do? Looking forward to your reply."
Two days later, I asked Huang Mude to send it.
After sending the letter, she no longer thought about this and only concentrated on taking care of her body at home. After more than half a month, she asked Huang Mulder to buy food several times, and even ate stewed old hens several times in luxury. , she has developed a good look in herself, but she cannot be as stupid as before and always treat herself badly.
After Huang Mude returned the book that time, she did not borrow any more books because she asked Huang Mude about Lu Yunhe’s news for the second time. It may be that Lu Yunhe heard Huang Mude’s story and felt that too much contact would make her afraid of finding him. , so he didn't dare to take any more action, for fear of being found by her, which made Chen Yibin feel more and more that Lu Yunhe couldn't get on the stage. His usual way of solving problems was to escape instead of facing it head-on.
In fact, Chen Yibong withheld several love letters from Gu Sinong and Lu Yunhe, specifically those letters in which Gu Sinong led Lu Yunhe to talk about divorce. Although Gu Sinong said that she did not personally promise anything to Lu Yunhe, she did not even ask Lu Yunhe to divorce. , but no one is a fool, and the sixteen-year-old Gu Sinong does not have such high skills as in the future. The publication of these letters is enough to make her drink a pot. Although Chen Yiping has no intention of harming others, she doesn't want to be as useless as she was in her previous life.
After more than ten days, Chen Yibing ate too much during her confinement period, so the remaining money on the bracelet was consumed quickly. She was worried about how to make money, so her elder brother sent her 200 yuan. Her understanding of her eldest brother, Chen Jiaguo, is that although he is in a high position now, he is very incorruptible. 200 yuan is not a small sum for him. At that time, an ordinary employee working in a foreign bank could only earn more than 20 yuan a month. .
Just when she was touched by her eldest brother's thoughtfulness, his belated letter finally arrived across the ocean. She couldn't wait to open the letter. The first sentence at the beginning was: "The Chen family has lost Lu Yunhe, as if they were losing an heir." The eldest brother's words were still so powerful that they penetrated the back of the paper, and the content made her feel like needles pricking her.
She had almost forgotten how much her brothers, sisters and parents liked Lu Yunhe. Even the eldest brother's words were exactly the same as in his previous life. Even though she said so many things about Lu Yunhe being bad and irresponsible to her, they still felt that Lu Yunhe was so good.
Chen Yibing put the letter on the table first, poured herself a glass of warm water, swallowed it slowly, and calmed down her turbulent emotions before picking up the letter and reading it again.
"Lu Yunhe's talent is something that my second son and I are unanimously optimistic about. All talented people always have some characteristics that are different from ordinary people. Zhijie is a charming and unrestrained man who loves to make friends. As a wife, you can't control him. Even if he is a man, Having a few lovers only shows that he is a well-liked and loved person. Shouldn’t you be proud and honored to have such a man as your husband? I heard from the second child that if you can go to England to get together with Zhijie, he will go there. The Lu family persuaded you, why don’t you cherish this rare opportunity, learn some knowledge from Zhijie, expand your horizons, stay and fly together with Zhijie, and become a couple? My sister, Jiahe, you have been smart and eager to learn since you were a child, and I I have always thought that you are the most worry-free person in the family. Why can’t you even capture the heart of your husband? Even as a mother, you can’t even protect your own children? You have let me down."
Chen Yiping quietly put down the letter from her eldest brother and counted it on her fingers. In fact, she and her eldest brother had not seen each other for more than a year, but for twenty years. The eldest brother died twenty years earlier than her, and she still I remember that when he passed away, she was far away in Nangang. When she heard the news of her eldest brother's death, she cried bitterly and became seriously ill.
In the last life, the eldest brother liked Lu Yunhe very much. He liked him so much that after they divorced, he still treated Lu Yunhe as his sister-in-law. Even though Lu Yunhe treated her like that, the eldest brother still did not treat Lu Yunhe harshly. He even made her feel that her eldest brother loved Lu Yunhe. Love her more than anyone else.
Young people decades later will not be able to understand, just like her great-niece in her previous life, a foreign-style girl who has received many years of education, she cannot understand why her grandfathers, Chen Yibing’s brothers, Why do they still like Lu Yunhe who divorced her so much?
Chen Yibing has always known that her relatives like Lu Yunhe. In this era, there is a special sense of admiration for talented people, and Lu Yunhe is very frank and enthusiastic to everyone except her, so a warm and frank person Who can not like a talented person? The only ones he dislikes are women who want to be abandoned like her.
She later felt that her relatives still liked Lu Yunhe so much, more likely because in their eyes, a woman was just a vassal of a man, even if she was their biological daughter or biological sister. , in their hearts, her greatest role may be as a bridge between families. She and Lu Yunhe divorced, but they were not separated from Lu Yunhe. Only her task as a bridge was over. Perhaps this was a kind of sadness for women at that time. This concept was something that she could not reverse even if she became famous later.
