Chapter 128 The once warm courtyard
"Hmph, do you think I will believe you? You are just pretending to be innocent. You don't care about our family at all. You only care about having fun!" Yan Jiedi gritted her teeth in anger, her eyes filled with resentment and dissatisfaction.
Seeing this, He Yuliang quickly stepped forward and grabbed Yan Jie Di, persuading her: "Sister Jie Di, don't be angry. Things have already happened. The most important thing we should do now is to think of a way to solve it."
Yan Jiedi turned her head and glared at He Yuliang, but seeing his serious and persuasive expression, she finally suppressed her anger, sighed, and said, "But, Yuliang, this matter is really too much, I really can't accept it!"
He Yuliang gently patted Yan Jiedi's shoulder and comforted her: "I know you are angry, but calm down now. Let's work together to find a solution. We will definitely be able to solve it."
Seeing that the atmosphere had eased somewhat, Jia Zhang quickly said, "Jie Di, I know you are all angry, and I also regret that Lao Zhang did such a thing. I promise that I will educate him well and make him realize his mistake, and then we will work together to find a way to make up for this mistake."
Yan Jie Di still felt a little dissatisfied after hearing what Jia Zhang said, but she also knew that it was useless to blame him now. She sighed and said, "Okay, since you said so, I will believe you this time. But if Lao Zhang does something like this again, I will not let him off easily!"
Jia Zhang nodded quickly and said, "I will teach him a lesson, Jie Di, don't worry."
The atmosphere gradually eased, and the three sat down together to discuss how to deal with Lao Zhang's gambling problem. They decided to find an opportunity to have a good talk, let Lao Zhang realize his mistakes, and then find a way to solve the family's financial problems.
For a moment, the room was filled with discussions. They talked about how to help Lao Zhang quit his gambling addiction, how to plan the family's finances, and how to re-establish a harmonious atmosphere in the family.
Yan Jiedi felt that her anger had reached its limit. She stood in the room, her eyes full of despair and anger. She looked around and saw several paintings on the table. They were the result of He Yuliang's years of hard work.
"These paintings!" she screamed at the top of her lungs, her eyes full of resentment.
He Yuliang rushed forward and tried to stop her, but it was too late. Yan Jiedi stretched out her hands angrily and suddenly tore the painting on the table. The drawing paper was torn into pieces in her hands, just like the excitement in her heart, splashing everywhere.
"Sister Jie Di, you...don't do this!" He Yuliang looked at the scene in astonishment and shouted in heartache.
Yan Jiedi seemed not to hear. Her eyes were wild and crazy. She kept tearing the paintings apart, as if she wanted to vent all her anger on them.
"This is all your hard work!" He Yuliang couldn't help but shout again. He watched with heartache as his years of hard work turned into pieces.
But Yan Jiedi seemed to have completely lost her mind. She just kept tearing and cursing.
Jia Zhang stood aside, her face pale, her heart filled with fear and helplessness. She knew that Jie Di had completely lost control at this moment, and she didn't know what to do.
"Jie Di, calm down! What you are doing now will not solve the problem!" He Yuliang tried to persuade her, but Yan Jie Di seemed to no longer be able to listen to any advice.
The painting on the table was completely destroyed and in a mess. He Yuliang felt heartbroken, he couldn't imagine that his work of hard work would be destroyed in an instant.
Finally, Yan Jiedi stopped. Her hands were covered in blood from the torn drawing paper. She was gasping for breath frantically, with a trace of anger and sadness still in her eyes.
"Sister Jie Di, what...what's wrong with you?" He Yuliang hurried forward and looked at her with concern.
Yan Jiedi shook her head, tears streaming down her face. She felt completely broken, she didn't know why she did such a thing, but she couldn't control her emotions.
"I'm sorry... I'm sorry..." She muttered softly, tears blurring her vision and making her feel extremely tired and helpless.
He Yuliang looked at Yan Jiedi with a feeling of distress and helplessness in his heart. He knew that now was not the time to blame, but the time to comfort and understand.
"Sister Jie Di, it's okay. We will face it together. I will always be by your side." He Yuliang gently hugged Yan Jie Di and comforted her.
Jia Zhang also stepped forward and said softly, "Don't be afraid, Jie Di. We will get through this together."
The silence in the room was broken, Yan Jiedi's voice resounded throughout the house, and her words were like a sharp sword piercing everyone's heart.
"I want to divorce He Yuliang!" Her voice was cold and firm.
He Yuliang and Jia Zhang were both stunned. They didn't expect Jie Di to say such a thing. He Yuliang's eyes were full of shock and disappointment. He wanted to say something, but he couldn't speak for a while.
Jia Zhang was stunned, unable to believe her ears for a moment. She wanted to dissuade Jie Di, but she didn't know how to start.
There was no hesitation or wavering in Yan Jiedi's eyes. She seemed to have made up her mind and no one could change her mind.
"Sister Jie Di, do you... do you really want a divorce?" He Yuliang's voice was choked with sobs and reluctance.
Yan Jiedi did not answer. She just looked at He Yuliang silently, her eyes full of determination and firmness.
He Yuliang felt a sharp pain in his chest. He couldn't imagine that his marriage had come to this point. They used to love each other so much and snuggle in each other's arms, but now they have become so strange and so distant.
"Sister Jie Di, don't be impulsive!" Jia Zhang finally spoke, her voice filled with infinite worry and anxiety.
Yan Jiedi turned her head and looked at Jia Zhang, her eyes full of indifference and determination. "I'm not impulsive, I've thought it through." She said coldly.
Jia Zhang felt extremely helpless and heartbroken. She knew she could not stop Jie Di, nor could she understand what kind of story was hidden behind Jie Di's decision.
He Yuliang was silent for a moment, and finally he couldn't say anything else. He knew that Jie Di had made up her mind, and it was useless for him to persuade her.
The atmosphere in the room became heavy and depressing. The three of them fell into silence, and the distance between them became farther and farther, as if an insurmountable gap separated them.
The three aunts, who were usually the bond of the family, were now cold outsiders. They used to come and go in the He family, enthusiastic and helping He Yuliang and his wife with their worries and problems, but now, a cold atmosphere enveloped this once warm courtyard.
