“Xiao Chu, do you know how Gu Jianshe’s ex-wife died?”, Someone asked abruptly. 

The others enthusiastically agreed, “According to your stepmother’s tone, his ex-wife’s death was unjust. Is it because Gu Jianshe chose to protect the child but not his wife?” 

“It must be, all men have no conscience.” 

Without waiting for Chu Qiao to answer, these women started talking nonsense, and guessed the truth accurately.

Chu Qiao ignored them, there was no need for her to say anything. The cause of Gu Jianshe’s ex-wife’s death would soon be spread throughout the factory by these gossiping women. 

Everyone would know that Gu Jianshe gave up the life of his wife who had given birth to his children, which was heartless and unfair. He was worse than a beast.

He Jihong dragged Xu Bilian back home, and on the way, Xu Bilian kept making a fuss. He Jihong was exhausted from the commotion and became increasingly cold towards her daughter.

“If you keep making trouble, then you can just get ready to work in another province. I can’t help you.” 

He Jihong coldly reminded her daughter that she couldn’t help her anymore. It would be better to transfer her to another province, out of her sight and out of her mind, because she still wanted to live a few more years.

Xu Bilian trembled and a chill surged in her heart. This kind of He Jihong was something she had never seen before, and she sensitively perceived that He Jihong had changed.

She was no longer patient like before. Xu Bilian believed that this time He Jihong was not only bluffing, but would really transfer her to another province.

“Mom… I’m in pain. Now I have become someone who is broken, and I don’t even dare to meet my friends.”

Xu Bilian softened her tone and cried bitterly. 

He Jihong’s heart softened again and she scolded angrily, “I’ve told you so many times, but you’ve been ignoring me. A beast like Gu Jianshe, why do you still want to be with him? You have a house and a job, and you’re still young. Even if you can’t have children, it’s okay. Having a child is also a debt. Without a child, you’ll definitely have a better life than Gu Jianshe. What are you unwilling to accept?”

“Then when will my house be given to me?” Xu Bilian asked with sobs and didn’t dare to make any more trouble.

She suddenly realized just now that she had to wait until she got the house before making any trouble. Otherwise her mother would get angry and wouldn’t give her the house.

“Soon enough. Your waipo* called me today and said that the certificate will be ready in just a few days. The bungalow is very large, with hundreds of square meters. With this house and an iron rice bowl job*, why are you unwilling to accept it? Just keep up your spirits and live well, even better than others!”

*Iron rice bowl job: is a Chinese term for an occupation with guaranteed job security. Traditionally, people considered to have such positions include military personnel, members of civil service, as well as employees of various state-owned enterprises (through the mechanism of the work unit). 

He Jihong still couldn’t bear to give up on her daughter and patiently taught her, but Xu Bilian didn’t listen. 

She was now thinking deeply of her insignificant problems and missing out on He Jihong’s note. She just wanted to be with Gu Jianshe.

She definitely wanted the house. Such a big house would definitely be able to be sold for a large sum of money. 

With the money, she would have more confidence. Xu Bilian had already made a good plan that she would sell the house as soon as she got it. She didn’t want to live in that kind of dilapidated house. 

Xu Bilian quieted down, and He Jihong breathed a sigh of relief. Only then did she have time to ask Chu Yuanzhi, “How did you and Xiao Peng go to the machine tool factory today?” 

“After Qiao Qiao got married, I haven’t been there even once. So I went over to visit them.” 

Chu Yuanzhi’s forehead was sweating, his expression was still calm. He Jihong didn’t get suspicious, but she was not happy about that, so she gently reprimanded, “In the future, if you don’t come back for dinner, give me a call!” 

“I forgot about it today, but next time, I won’t forget.” 

Chu Yuanzhi’s heart relaxed and he promised with a smile. However, He Jihong was getting angrier when she heard this. 

Her husband still wanted to go to that b*tch’s place next time. Her submissive husband, who had been obedient for nearly 20 years, was becoming increasingly difficult to control. She had to put him down immediately, otherwise this man could do whatever he wanted.
