Chapter 17: A Mess 

Ji Xiaoyue looked at Zhang Pingping with mockery, “Here to get my college entrance exam spot back…”

Before Ji Xiaoyue could finish her sentence, Ji Qingqing interrupted urgently, “Xiaoyue, you can’t just say things like that even if you’re resentful.”

This matter itself was illegal, and Ji Xiaoyue just blurted it out.

Ji Qingqing anxiously pulled on Zhang Pingping, “Mom, you can’t let Xiaoyue talk nonsense. What happened last time has already made me lose face in the compound. If she keeps talking nonsense, I really won’t be able to live.”

She said, clutching her chest as if she couldn’t breathe.

Zhang Pingping saw Ji Qingqing clutching her chest and thought she was having a heart problem again. She hurriedly scolded Ji Xiaoyue, “Get out! Didn’t you say you have nothing to do with us? Don’t show up again. The Ji family won’t recognize you.”

Ji Xiaoyue looked at the mother and daughter and sneered mockingly, “Comrade Zhang Pingping, what are you afraid of? Are you guilty?”

She turned to Fu Liye and said, “Comrade Fu, I’ll come back when I have time.”

She then greeted the two children, “Sister will bring you some pig head meat when I have time.”

Fu Liye looked at Ji Xiaoyue’s back and looked at Zhang Pingping and Ji Qingqing with confusion.

“You’re a family?” Fu Liye had just been transferred here, he hadn’t been in the compound for long. He rarely came back and didn’t know much about the compound affairs.

Moreover, he was a man and wouldn’t go around gossiping about the compound.

Zhang Pingping and Ji Qingqing looked at each other and immediately said in unison, “We don’t know her.”

Fu Liye didn’t ask any further, just nodded to them and took the two children inside.

After Fu Liye closed the door, Ji Qingqing anxiously said to Zhang Pingping, “Mom, will Ji Xiaoyue talk nonsense?”

Zhang Pingping paused for a moment and pulled Ji Qingqing back, “Let’s go back and tell your dad about it.”

…

On the way back, Ji Xiaoyue kept thinking about the children.

She actually took Fu Liye’s words about a fake marriage to heart.

Actually, if Fu Liye really couldn’t find anyone, she could be the one.

It’s just that she couldn’t take the initiative to ask, “I’ll marry you.”

The Ji Dahai family clearly didn’t want to see her, afraid that she would expose the matter of Ji Qingqing stealing her college entrance exam spot.

The more they feared, the more she would show up under their noses.

In the novel, Fu Liye was Ji Qingqing’s benefactor. Ji Qingqing’s success in many things later on was thanks to Fu Liye.

If she took away her big benefactor, could Ji Qingqing still be as successful as in the novel?

Along the way, she kept thinking about the matter of a fake marriage with Fu Liye.

After arriving home, Wang Guihua and Sun Dahua were already boiling the pig head.

Because there was so much stuff, they had to start shaving, cleaning, and washing vegetables as soon as they got back.

There was a lot of stuff, if they didn’t prepare early, they wouldn’t be able to sleep at night.

When they saw Ji Xiaoyue come back, they asked her worriedly, “Did you send the children over? Will they be sold again?”

Ji Xiaoyue shook her head, “A military officer is willing to raise them. He’s a good person.”

She briefly told Wang Guihua about Fu Liye’s situation and then started working.

Wang Guihua went into the house to get the money and gave it to Ji Xiaoyue, “Xiaoyue, this money is too much, I can’t take it. I’ve never received so much money before, I’m afraid of losing it. I can’t sleep at night.”

Sun Dahua said with a smile, “Xiaoyue, you don’t know, my mom has checked the money hundreds of times since she got it.

She kept checking on the way back, afraid of losing it. When she got home, she still wasn’t at ease and kept checking. Isn’t she funny?”

Ji Xiaoyue put her arm around Wang Guihua’s and said seriously, “Auntie, we will have a lot of money in the future, this is just a small amount.

I consider you my mother, you keep it for me. If you don’t want to manage my money, it means you don’t want me, then I’ll leave.”

Wang Guihua had no choice but to take the money back.

Just then, Aunt Cui, who lived next door to the Sun family, ran over and called Wang Guihua, “Guihua, hurry up and see, your sister-in-law is making a fuss about divorce. That Liu widow took her three children to the Sun family and cried.”

When they heard Aunt Cui’s words, they looked at each other in unison, then all excitedly went to watch the show.

The pit that Ji Xiaoyue dug for Sun Erqiang, the mine she laid, finally exploded?

These days, Ji Xiaoyue would go to Liu widow’s house with some cold dishes after finishing her work. When she went, she would also persuade her a few words.

Liu widow, a woman raising three children, must be looking for a sucker. She also saw that Ji Xiaoyue’s family had meat to eat every day, she must be clinging to Su Erqiang.

Aunt Cui led them without getting close, watching the three women make a scene from afar.

Why were there three women?

One was Sun Laotai, one was Sun Erqiang’s wife, and the other was Liu widow.

Liu widow kept saying “my husband” and “I’m already Sun Erqiang’s woman,” he ate and drank for free and didn’t want to take responsibility.

“Everyone come and see, I’m already pregnant with Sun Erqiang’s child. What’s a widow to do? I’m going to be disgraced. Sun Erqiang is a rogue, he deserves to be shot. Everyone help me judge him.”

She cried and wailed, wiping her tears while looking around to see how many people were watching the show.

The more people knew about this kind of ugliness, the better.

She had already lost her face, she had to cling to Sun Erqiang.

Her three sons were at the age where they could eat, even if she slept with different men every day, she couldn’t make that much money.

“Sun Erqiang, are you even a man? If you are a man, you should be responsible for me…”

“You’re responsible for the child in my belly. You dare to do it but not to admit it, you pull up your pants and don’t recognize people.” Liu widow shouted at Sun Erqiang.

Sun Erqiang’s wife heard Liu widow’s shameless words and cried so hard she couldn’t catch her breath, “You bitch, you bitch, don’t talk nonsense…”

Ji Xiaoyue watched this play, the process was just bickering, she didn’t leave just to see the ending. She wanted to know if Liu widow could finally get away with it.

Aunt Cui also asked with a gossipy look, “This Liu widow is the same kind of person as your mother-in-law, she’s restless. If the two of them go to the same house, it’ll be fun, the men can be shared.”

Wang Guihua heard Aunt Cui’s filthy words and spat at her, “There are two girls here, they’re both innocent, don’t talk nonsense.”

Aunt Cui knew about Li Dahai leaving on Sun Dahua’s wedding day.

She pouted, “I forgot there were two big girls here.”

Finally, they waited until Sun Erqiang pulled Liu widow into the house before leaving.

After Sun Erqiang pulled Liu widow inside, Sun Erqiang’s wife took the children out.

She took the children back to her parents’ house.

When she walked past Ji Xiaoyue with Abao, Ji Xiaoyue, who loved to watch the show, said to Sun Erqiang’s wife, “Second Auntie, you can’t leave.

If you leave, you’re giving this adulterous couple a place?

Sun Erqiang can openly have an affair. Using your money to raise Liu widow’s three sons, those are all Abao’s.”

Sun Erqiang’s wife probably thought it made sense, so she turned around and went back with the children.

Wang Guihua saw her go back with the children, she couldn’t help but say to Ji Xiaoyue,

“You have too many tricks up your sleeve.”
