Switched Marriage The Coddled Little Wife novel Chapter 626

Chapter 626: Chapter 626: She Must Be Given Money

Li Guangyuan had known for a long time that his sister hadn’t married a decent man.

He still remembered how disdainful Zhang Wenbin was when he first visited the Li family.

Not to mention how he went back on the promise of the "three-piece dowry" and even expected his sister to bring it as part of her dowry.

Was this marriage? It was more like willingly becoming a servant for someone.

But he didn’t expect that the Zhang family not only made his sister a servant, but also wanted the Li family to serve them.

"But the household really has no money left, and it’s not just you who can’t eat in the Zhang family. We can’t expect you to figure it out alone. At worst, you can stay at your mother’s with the child, and see if they dare to let you starve."

Old Mrs. Li immediately nodded in agreement, "Your brother is right. If they have nothing to eat, let them starve. You and your child can stay here as long as you like. If the Zhang family can’t get your money, they’ll naturally find a way themselves."

When these words were said, Li Dongmei’s tears fell even more fiercely, "Wenbin said if I don’t go back, I should never go back—he’ll divorce me."

The word "divorce" was very distant from them just two months ago.

In their village, no matter how couples lived, even if there were fights that led to head injuries or drinking poison, they wouldn’t divorce.

There was never any news of a girl coming back to the village after a divorce.

Even though Li Dongmei’s husband was on his second marriage, they still thought divorce was something far away, something only city people did.

But after Lin Jiayi and Li Guangyuan really divorced, hearing the word "divorce" only made the Li family feel disgusted and annoyed.

"He says divorce and it’s just got to be divorce? Why?"

"Exactly, he’s already divorced once. If he divorces you again, who else would want to marry him?"

"He’s just trying to scare you. Don’t listen to him—nobody is scared that easily."

Li Guangyuan and Old Mrs. Li both retorted, the louder they talked, the more uncertain they felt inside.

Li Dongmei said, "Do you think he’s just scaring me? You all know, my in-laws and Zhang Wenbin only want a son. Back then, just because his wife gave him a daughter, they didn’t want the mother and child anymore. Now that I’ve given birth to another girl, he’d really dare to abandon us. Once he’s divorced from me, he’s a free man—still a city man—with lots of young single women throwing themselves at him."

Wasn’t that how it happened with her? She only wanted Li Guangyuan’s city status and gave him her virginity.

If she could do it, others could too.

"Mom, I don’t want to get a divorce."

Old Mrs. Li also believed her daughter shouldn’t divorce. If she didn’t divorce, she’d have to meet Zhang family’s demands.

Besides, from another perspective, the Zhang family now completely depended on her daughter for living. Her daughter was the only one with money, so how could the Zhang family mistreat her?

By then, wouldn’t the Zhang family be at her daughter’s command, and wouldn’t Zhang Wenbin still dare to hit her?

With this thought, Old Mrs. Li suddenly understood.

She finally understood what her daughter was implying when she came back and talked to her; she needed to be given money.

"Guangyuan, your sister is right, she cannot divorce. You’ve already divorced. If your sister divorces too, wouldn’t our Li family’s backbone be utterly broken? I still plan to find you another wife, so you both can live happily. If your sister divorces and comes back home, what girl would be willing to marry you?"

Li Guangyuan naturally understood this principle. With his situation, getting another wife should be no problem.

But if his sister returned, she’d bring back a child too, and it would be more than he could handle to support a big family, let alone attract a good girl?
