If we were to ask who the person who most wants a way to undo their mistakes right now, besides Village Chief Xu, it would probably be Chen Ming.

A few days after Chen Ming was fired, he decisively gave up his house in the city and rode his only possession, a bicycle, back to Chenjia Village to stay with Chen Hao.

The reason Chen Ming and Chen Hao had reconnected was because more than three months ago, Chen Hao took the initiative to come to Chen Ming and seek reconciliation.

At that time, Chen Hao sincerely apologized to Chen Ming, saying that they were brothers after all, and blood ties were still connected, so they couldn't really sever all ties.

At first, Chen Ming was unmoved, but as Chen Hao came more and more often and his attitude became more and more sincere, Chen Ming finally chose to forgive him.

After that, they had more and more contact. Chen Ming would also use the excuse of going back to Chenjia Village on business to have a meal with Chen Hao.

During this period, Chen Hao always treated Chen Ming very well, and often compared Xu Fang with his wife, saying that women should listen to men and stay at home to take care of their husbands and children.

After listening to Chen Hao's words for a while, Chen Ming couldn't help but start to have opinions about Xu Fang.

They felt that Xu Fang had changed since they moved to the Xu family home. Not only was she no longer as virtuous as before, but she also started to take the lead in keeping the man's salary, just like Zhang Yumei and Huang Qinqin.

However, he didn't dare to immediately stop paying Xu Fang's wages. Even though Chen Hao gave him some advice, Chen Ming still didn't dare to act immediately.

After hesitating for a full month, he finally used the excuse of needing to socialize to keep half of his salary for himself.

When Chen Ming returned to Chenjia Village, he still had very positive expectations.

He believes that although he has lost his job, he still has a few dozen yuan in savings, and he no longer needs to support his children.

It won't be any harder than before. The only problem is that his house hasn't been rebuilt since it burned down.

However, Chen Ming felt it wasn't a big problem, because Chen Hao had been telling him all along that there was no need for brothers to haggle too much over money.

Those who have extra money should help those who are in need. We are all brothers, and only by helping each other can we live in harmony.

Just when Chen Ming was overjoyed, thinking that Chen Hao would definitely let him stay at his home, he was met with a devastating blow.

"What did you say?!"

When Chen Hao heard Chen Ming say that he had been fired and needed to stay at his house for a while, he was completely stunned.

He went to great lengths to fawn over Chen Ming, and went to great lengths to sabotage Chen Ming and Xu Fang's relationship, even introducing Liu Qiaodi to Chen Ming—not so that Chen Ming would be expelled!

Chen Ming said with some melancholy, "Because I got my temporary job through Xu Weiguo."

"Now that I'm divorced from Xu Fang, and the police are all opportunistic, they'll kick me when I'm down, so they found an excuse to fire me."

“Without a job, I simply cannot survive in the city. I have no choice but to come back and seek refuge with you, my fourth brother.”

"Fourth brother, what you said before makes a lot of sense. Brothers must help each other. You wouldn't look down on me, would you?"

After hearing Chen Ming's words, Chen Hao's lips twitched slightly, and he was already cursing inwardly.

Mutual help my ass!

He doesn't want to help Chen Ming; he wants Chen Ming to help him, okay?!

Chen Ming is currently unemployed and doesn't even own a house, so he's unwilling to support another person.

Chen Hao said tactfully, "Big brother, I certainly won't look down on you."

"I knew you wouldn't dislike me, Fourth Brother!"

Upon hearing only the first half of Chen Hao's sentence, Chen Ming immediately replied happily and prepared to go straight into the house.

Seeing this, Chen Hao quickly reached out to stop Chen Ming and finished speaking as fast as he could: "Big brother, although I won't look down on you, our house is just too small."

"There are no rooms available for you, and it's even more inconvenient since you're with Sister Qiao now."

"How about this, you go find the village chief and see if you can stay at his house for a few days. And you also need to build a house as soon as possible."

Upon hearing this, Chen Ming immediately understood that Chen Hao was looking down on him, and these words sounded familiar.

Several months ago, Chen Hao and his wife had already said these words, and that's why they broke off their relationship.

Chen Ming asked somewhat dazedly, "But didn't you say that we're brothers, that blood is thicker than water, and that we should help each other?"

"Why can't you even lend me a place to stay now?"

Seeing Chen Ming like this, Chen Hao felt a little sorry for him. After all, Chen Ming was the older brother who raised him. Just as Chen Hao was about to give in, his wife coughed.

"Cough cough!"

When Chen Hao heard his wife cough, any pity he felt vanished instantly.

"Brother, I really can't help you. Besides, we've already severed ties, so it's better to have less contact in the future."

After saying that, he pushed Chen Ming away and slammed the door shut.

Liu Qiaodi is still very confused, from the time Chen Ming told her that she was fired until now, when she came to Chenjia Village.

She thought she had found a good family and could live a good life in the city from now on, but who knew that Chen Ming would lose his job immediately after only one day of divorce.

If that were all, it wouldn't be so bad, but judging from what Chen Hao just said, it seems that Chen Ming doesn't even have a house in the countryside.

Under such conditions, Liu Qiaodi would have to be crazy to continue being with Chen Ming.

Liu Qiaodi stopped twisting her waist and stopped using her sweet voice. She looked at Chen Ming very seriously and said, "Well, Chen Ming, we actually lied to you before."

“I didn’t have any relationship with you at all. It was all Chen Hao and his wife who instigated me. After they got you drunk, I went to bed with you.”

"Since nothing happened between us, you naturally don't need to take responsibility for me. I've bothered you these past few days, so I'll be leaving now."

After saying that, Liu Qiaodi turned and left without looking back.

Chen Ming clutched his head in anguish. He had suspected something was amiss with Liu Qiaodi's case before, but he also felt that Chen Hao wouldn't conspire with an outsider to frame him.

Who knew that this was really the case? Chen Ming felt desperate because he had believed Chen Hao's sweet talk and chosen to reconcile with him.

As a result, Chen Hao turned around and set him up. Over the past two months, Chen Ming had given Chen Hao a lot of money and things, but when he got into trouble, Chen Hao immediately turned his back on him.

Chen Ming felt that he was incredibly stupid!

Having already discovered Chen Hao's true colors once, why still believe his words?

Now he's separated from his wife and children, has no relatives or friends, and doesn't even have a place to live.

Chen Ming lay on the ground in despair, not knowing what to do next.
