[A true story, a rant, no web-novel tricks, just facts. It's not interesting, so there's no need to read it.] (The female lead has no romance and doesn't need a man.) A dad who drinks, eats, visits brothels, and gambles; a weak, bullied mom; and her and his and her and his lives thrown off course!
And then there's a pack of awful relatives who twist the truth and stick their noses in, making life unbearable for the whole family!
Luckily, the four siblings finally lived to see the day their mom stood up for herself.
Mom: I've decided. I'm getting a divorce!
The four siblings: Do it, do it, do it! This divorce has to happen!
What? The awful relatives are blocking the way? “Better to tear down a temple than break up a marriage”?
The four siblings: Bullshit! You just want to keep our mom around to serve your youngest brother like a beast of burden, a slave, and a servant!
This divorce is happening, no matter what! Anyone who stands in our way will be destroyed, be they human or Buddha!
To make Mom give up on the divorce, they spread rumors that she was having an affair?
Bullshit!
You awful relatives helped that man hide his mistresses and illegitimate children. So who's the one cheating here?
Honestly, when you look at the world through filthy eyes, everything looks filthy!
Don't understand?
I'm saying you're so dirty that you see dirt everywhere!
Get lost! Nobody's going to bully Mom anymore!
Once she leaves that man, Mom will be a woman who can stand on her own!
Content warning: 1. This story has a strong rural flavor, with lots of Sichuan dialect. Read at your own risk!
2. The first 18 chapters are extremely frustrating, laying out just how awful the relatives are. Things turn around after Chapter 18.
