I didn't choose to divorce Aaron immediately.
But I also knew that no matter how hard I tried to please him,Aaron would never be interested in me.
He liked coquettish women,and I couldn't be like that.
No matter how hard I tried,I couldn't be as bottom-less as the women in those places of ill repute.
The next day at the dining table,I silently served everyone a bowl of rice.
My mother-in-law had been in a bad mood since last night,slamming her chopsticks:“Damn it!I specially invited a god to have a grandson!But someone is so useless!”
“Come on,Mom.Don't be angry,”my sister-in-law persuaded,“Fortunately,we didn't pay for inviting the god...”
I was stunned.Suddenly,I remembered something and rushed into the bedroom!
Sure enough!
In the bottom drawer of the bedroom wardrobe,there was my private savings over the years,and a gold necklace that Aaron gave me for my birthday two years ago.Now the drawer was empty!
“Speaking of which,it's all Tom's credit!”My sister-in-law touched her son's head,“He found someone's hidden private money.Tsk,how shameless!Brother,you have to talk about your wife.She can't have a child and is still sneaky.She must have sticky fingers...”
“Hmm,it's her fault.”
My mother-in-law threw down her chopsticks and scolded me,“Come here and refill my rice!Useless thing!”
My sister-in-law snorted,“Mom,don't be angry.She's been useless for a long time.Aren't people from the countryside all like that?Disgusting,smelly,sticky-fingered,and timid...”
Shut up.
Shut up,all of you!
The angry shout echoed in my wounded heart.
You have no right to talk about me!
Every one of you is more disgusting and useless than me!
You...don't deserve it at all!
I walked over in silence,picked up my mother-in-law's rice bowl,and then did something that no one expected.
I picked up the rice bowl and,with all my pent-up anger,smashed it hard at the statue of the god!
“Bang!”
The statue fell to the ground,and broken pieces of wood,metal,and porcelain splashed everywhere!
Finally,everyone in the family focused their eyes on me!
Silence.
In the long-awaited silence,I found a sense of relief and release!
I finally made them shut up!
Both my sister-in-law and Aaron looked at me in surprise.After a while,my mother-in-law,who had come to her senses,let out a loud scream!
