Lu Jiang and his wife, along with Ye Xiangqian, weren't the type to gossip, but they couldn't stop the news from spreading when Su Meixiang openly brought Shen Feng to get checked out, so word of Shen Feng being fine got around quickly.
About half a month later, Feng Qingxue heard from Peng Aihong that Shen Qing and Su Meixiang had gotten divorced.
"Divorced?" Feng Qingxue was taken aback.
"Yep, they divorced. The military approved it, and the divorce paperwork was finalized yesterday." Peng Aihong was stitching a shoe sole, rubbing the needle against her scalp for grip, "Su Meixiang didn't want to at first—makes sense. Without Shen Qing, how would she afford clothes and shoes?"
Feng Qingxue fell silent, then asked after a moment, "What changed her mind about the divorce?"
Peng Aihong smiled, "After the divorce, Shen Qing agreed to give her a monthly allowance of 170 yuan."
