Sun Chan said, "n are all heartless."
Ding Hu and Zhou Jinzhu, each more ruthless than the other.
"That’s right. Everyone thinks that getting a divorce is bad for your reputation. But a woman can’t rely on a man for her whole life. Have you ever seen a man who couldn’t live after getting divorced, while won may act like they’re dying after a breakup? You’re still young, rember, never put your happiness in a man’s hands." As she spoke, she placed a chicken drumstick in Sun Chan’s bowl.
Sun Chan nodded, secretly admiring her. Despite Guihua’s troubled marriage and poor choice in a husband, her mind was always clear, and she had drive in her career. If she had the courage to divorce in her previous life, she wouldn’t have ended up so miserably.
After they finished eating, Sun Chan prepared to leave.
Guihua smiled and said, "Why don’t you stay here for a day? Wang Dabao won’t be coming back."
"No need, I have to work tomorrow."
"Alright, let pack these dishes in a lunchbox for you to take ho."
Sun Chan hastily declined.
Guihua laughed and said, "It’s no big deal, there’s too much for to eat alone. These have salt added, and I can’t eat them, they would just go to waste. Next ti you co, just bring the lunchbox back."
Guihua deftly found an aluminum lunchbox, washed it, put in the mushrooms, filled it with rice, added a chicken drumstick, and packed a big bag of mountain dates and hazelnuts for Sun Chan.
Looking at the lunchbox, Sun Chan suddenly suggested, "How about I take this al to the Deputy Battalion Commander instead, since he didn’t have lunch? But this lunchbox..."
Guihua smiled and said, "Sure, take it to him. The lunchbox isn’t worth much, it’s fine."
Sun Chan accepted the lunchbox, saying, "Alright! If I see any suitable baby formula, I’ll buy it for you and bring it next week."
"Great! With the child so young, I can’t go out to buy it myself. Oh, next ti, get so toilet paper too. The quality at the village store is poor. And so peanut candy as well."
Sun Chan agreed to everything and reminded Guihua to take care of herself. Just as she was about to leave, the sound of a car engine ca from outside, and a gray car pulled up at the door, kicking up a lot of dust.
In these days, having a car at ho was quite rare, and Guihua’s house was among the first to have one.
Wang Dabao got out of the car, his hair immaculately grood, wearing a tan suit, and carrying a briefcase. He gave off a very tacky vibe.
Seeing Sun Chan, Wang Dabao was first surprised, seeing that this girl had beco more and more beautiful, and he smiled, "Sun Chan is here?" His eyes road all over Sun Chan’s body, making her uncomfortable.
"Yes, I ca to see my sister and was just about to leave." Sun Chan greeted him and headed straight out.
Under normal circumstances, he would have tried to get handsy, but today he had pressing matters, so he went directly to Guihua, "I told Boss Li that I’d pay him this afternoon, but I’m a bit short on funds. Can you give three thousand first?"
Guihua lowered her eyelids and said, "Where in the house is there money?"
"What do you an there’s none? Didn’t you get the money from the Wang Family Village’s mountain products?"
Guihua oh-ed with a prolonged tone, "That money, it’s really unfortunate. My brother from my family was also short on cash earlier, so I lent it to him."
Wang Dabao’s face instantly turned sour, probably not expecting to not get the money back.
Guihua said, "Sun Chan, thank you for visiting today. You should hurry up and go ho."
Sun Chan realized that Guihua didn’t want her to see this, quickly agreed, and had just stepped out the door when she heard Wang Dabao shouting.
"How could you just lend out money so freely, several thousand at a ti? That’s my money, and you lent it out without saying a word?"
"You’ve been gone for over ten days. How could I find you?" Guihua’s voice got louder, "What’s yours about it? You know well how you started your business, right? My brother from my family gave you the money to help you, and now when he needs a little loan, you’re not happy? Don’t fear people laughing at you if it gets out!"
"It’s not that... I’m just short on money... I’m not saying you can’t lend it out... but you should at least tell !"
"Enough with the act! I know what you think. Your money is yours, and ours is yours, selfish to the core! If you’re really short on cash, sell the apartnt in the city!" Guihua mocked with a sneer, "Do you know how expensive the apartnts in the city are? One is over twenty thousand, and you could get several tis three thousand from that."
Wang Dabao hurriedly denied it, "When did I buy an apartnt! ’They say pregnancy makes you dumb for three years’; why are you so suspicious?"
"The second floor opposite the departnt store, changed ownership on the eighth of last month, in the na of that fox spirit. Don’t think that just because I’m at ho taking care of the baby, I don’t know anything. Wang Dabao, I’m telling you again, divorce, and don’t expect to get a penny from again. My brother also promised not to give you any benefits. Keeping is of no use to you!" Guihua was extrely aggressive, waking up the child sleeping inside.
The courtyard fell into silence. Sun Chan felt tense, clenching her fists, afraid Wang Dabao would hit her, and not daring to leave.
Wang Dabao finally stamred, "Guihua, I... it wasn’t... I was just having fun with her..."
Guihua’s voice filled with sorrow, "Just having fun and you gave her a twenty-thousand-dollar apartnt? All these years of hardship and suffering with you, and what did you buy for ? I’m not even as good as a fox spirit!"
"No, we’re a family..."
Guihua laughed mockingly, "Ha, a family? When I needed your attention most during pregnancy, you held her, protecting her from hitting her! During my postpartum month, you ignored , took her around ssing about, and bought her an apartnt with our money. You want to have the best of both worlds, do you think I’m stupid? I was blind to live with you, but I can’t stay blind forever. In short, it’s divorce, or wait for to find another man. If you want my family to help you again or give you money, dream on! Now get out!"
