Chapter 1228: Grandpa Li Wants a Divorce (4) Grandpa Li took out a box of red ink. “Remember when I tried to teach you how to write your name? I am sure you must have forgotten by now. It’s all right. Just put your thumbprint here on the document.”

Grandma Li felt bitter upon seeing the red ink. It seemed like she was putting up a hopeless fight.

Aunt Li looked away. She could not bear to see her mother so sorrowful, but she knew that Grandpa Li had been pushed to his limit.

Grandma Li had been very overbearing all these years. She continued to make things difficult for everyone all those years during his absence. His patience had run out.

“If I had learned to read and write like you wanted me to in the past, would you still want to divorce me now?”

“I don’t know, but I’m sure if you had tried to study back then, your eyes would have opened up to another world. You could be leading a different life now.”

At this point, nobody sympathized with Grandma Li.

Even Aunt Li was not able to defend Grandma Li after the latter had committed many atrocities.

She had to bear the consequences now.

Everyone had their breaking point, including her, her brother, and her father.

When Grandma Li tested their patience to their limit, they would give up on her eventually.

“I don’t want a divorce.”

Grandma Li would never agree to the divorce.

She had never thought of divorcing Grandpa Li.

She was certain that she would belong to the Li family for as long as she lived.

Ever since she left her own family and stepped into the Li family, they were her only family.

When she died, she would also die as a member of the Li family.

“You don’t want a divorce?”

Grandpa Li smiled.

“Are you sure you don’t want to divorce?”

Grandma Li nodded. “Yes, I am sure. I will never agree to the divorce.”

“Then I will appeal to the court. We have been leading separate lives for so many years. There is enough reason to divorce since we have been physically apart for so long.”

Grandpa Li had lived to a ripe old age. He had seen enough.

His grandson’s life had just begun. He could not let her destroy his happiness.

“Dad, don’t go overboard. It will be very embarrassing for us if you go to court to get a divorce at this age.”

Aunt Li thought that would bring shame to the family.

“Embarrassing? Your mom is enough of an embarrassment to us. Don’t you think that everything she had done had brought shame to our family? Why should I care about someone who’s willing to embarrass their family like that?”

Grandpa Li turned to look at Li Qingcang and Li Hang. “The two of you don’t just stand there. We have done wrong to Tianxin and her family. Go and apologize to the Xie family right away. How can a fine young girl be insulted like that?”

“Wu Tong, you go with Qingcang. I’ll stay here.”

Li Hang wanted to stay home. No matter what, she was his mother.

“All right.”

After Wu Tong and Li Qingcang left, Li Hang fell on his knees and began pleading with Grandma Li.

“Mom, don’t worry. I’ll still take care of you. When you pass on, I will choose a good site for your burial. I’m begging you, don’t make things any more difficult for everyone.”

Tears were streaming down Grandma Li’s face.

She felt like a failure.

She was already 80 years old, yet she was getting a divorce.

To make matters worse, neither her son nor daughter was on her side.

She was fighting the battle alone.

“Li Hang, I accept how your father is treating me. His heart is cold like steel. Why you? You are my son! I gave birth to you. How can you betray me all because of that girl?”
