"Mom, why do you think Hou Jie is so lucky to marry a rich lady?”
"He doesn't have any culture, he doesn't have a family background, and his job is also bitter.”
Thinking of the sumptuous lunch he had seen at noon, Jia Dongxu was indignant as he ate the cornbread and corn paste.
Thinking of Chen Xueru's beautiful figure in a cheongsam, the already sour cornbread became even more sour.
"Who knows what kind of dumb luck he has. But Dongxu, don't be discouraged. There's still a chance.”
"I went to look for my old friend in the afternoon and asked her to arrange a good lady for me.”
"That lady is pregnant, six months pregnant. I want her to go to Hou Jie's house to make a scene.”
"When the time comes, as long as she insists that the child is Hou Jie's, he won't be able to clear his name even if he jumps into the Yellow River.”
"But she's not in Yan City right now. She's married into Tian City. It'll take some time to write a letter to call her over.”
"Dongxu, Mom has invested a lot of money. For you, I've spent all the money I've saved over the years.”
"After separating Hou Jie and Chen Xueru, you have to work harder to please Chen Xueru.”
"If you don't live up to your expectations, the hundred yuan that Mom spent will go down the drain.”
Jia Zhang-shi rambled on about his arrangements, her face full of pride and anticipation.
This time, she had invested a lot of money. She had spent more than a hundred yuan that she had saved up over the years.
After all, it was a wicked and shameless thing to do. Who would be willing to do it for less money?
Jia Zhang-shi didn't believe that Chen Xueru would still be able to live with Hou Jie after that young lady came to Yan City and caused trouble at his house.
Since Chen Xueru couldn't break through, Jia Zhangshi might as well break through from Hou Jie's side and completely ruin his reputation.
Chen Xueru had to divorce him even if she didn't want to.
If Chen Xueru was still unwilling to get a divorce, he would let that young lady go to the silk shop to make a scene. He did not believe that Chen Xueru could take it.
Jia Zhang-shi had already discussed this with her old sisters. No matter what, they had to separate Hou Jie and Chen Xueru.
"Mom, is what you said true?" Jia Dongxu was overjoyed. Hou Jie was really dead this time.
A good lady was still a lady. This kind of woman would do anything for money.
"Would Mom lie to you?" Jia Zhangshi glared at her son, feeling quite pleased with herself.
She waved the cattail leaf fan in her hand, feeling like a female Zhuge.
She had actually thought of such a brilliant idea. Even she admired herself.
"Mom, is your old sister reliable?”Jia Dongxu was a little worried.
What if his mother's old friend didn't do anything for the money? Wouldn't that be a double loss?
"Don't worry. Mom and my sister are close friends. She won't dare to fool me.”
Jia Zhang-shi was full of confidence. Back then, the two of them had worked together in the same brothel for more than ten years.
Later, Jia Zhangshi accidentally got pregnant, so she decided to turn over a new leaf and leave the brothel to give birth to Jia Dongxu.
Of course, Jia Zhang-shi would never tell anyone about this, not even her own son.
As for who the child's father was, Jia Zhangshi could only guess roughly. It was very likely that it was the child left behind by a guest with the surname Jia.
Thus, Jia Zhangshi gave her son the surname Jia. To outsiders, it was said that Jia Dongxu's father died in the war.
Jia Dongxu had always thought that his father had really died in the war. He had never doubted it. After all, too many people had died in the war.
"Mom, I've called Hou Jie and Chen Xueru to drink with us. And Silly Zhu, you can prepare some dishes to go with the wine later.”
Jia Dongxu said excitedly. The dawn of hope was right in front of him, and he couldn't hold it in any longer.
"Why did you ask them to drink? What a waste of money." Jia Zhang-shi was a little dissatisfied. Wasn't this spending money in vain?
"Mom, I'm going to make use of Silly Zhu to get Hou Jie drunk. With Silly Zhu's brain, he'll fight Hou Jie to the death with just a few words.”
"If I get Hou Jie drunk, I can chat and drink with Chen Xueru.”
Jia Dongxu revealed his wishful thinking. His mother went out to work for the whole afternoon, and he pondered at home for the whole afternoon.
In a one on one drinking match, he didn't have the confidence to win Hou Jie for sure, but with Silly Zhu, it was definitely a sure win.
"As expected of my son. Smart. In that case, I have to spend some money and kill the old hen that laid eggs at home.”
Hearing her son's plan, Jia Zhangshi agreed with him and decided to spend more money to kill the old hen to make soup.
If her son and Chen Xueru liked each other, wouldn't she marry into the Jia family after she divorced Hou Jie?
In order to let her son reach the top in one step and save decades of struggle, Jia Zhangshi also went all out, not even letting the old hen go.
……
"Hou Jie, the food and wine are ready.”
When the chicken soup was ready, Jia Dongxu came over to greet Hou Jie.
Eh, where's Chen Xueru?
Was he not at home?
"Hou Jie, where's your wife?" Jia Dongxu quickly asked.”
"My wife isn't here, so I don't drink.”Hou Jie said indifferently.
"Didn't we agree?" Jia Dongxu was disappointed.”
If Chen Xueru didn't come for a drink, tonight's plan would fall through.
"You said it. I didn't agree to it.”Hou Jie remained calm.
If it wasn't for the sake of treating Jia Dongxu to some alcohol, would he have endured until now?
"Alright, it's fine if your wife doesn't want to drink. It's the same if we drink.”
Jia Dongxu thought of a second plan.
It was the same as getting Hou Jie drunk first and then chatting with Chen Xueru.
Thus, two men with ulterior motives walked into the Jia family's house one after another.
……
A few of the older brothers who voted for me grew 10 centimeters.
