Chapter 424: Gnashing Teeth with Hatred
"Crazy, crazy, Comrade He, are you crazy? You and Captain Lu have been married for so long, why won't Comrade He give up? Why is he still picking on you? She's so beautiful, and she has a grandfather who's a leader. She can find any man she wants. Is Captain Lu really that good?"
Maybe...what you have easily is never better than what you snatch away.
Rather than saying that she wanted to get Lu Zhanlin, it would be more accurate to say that He Meijiao wanted to defeat Chu Yue and get back all the humiliation she had suffered.
Right now.
He Meijiao was dressed up, wearing the most expensive dress and the most beautiful makeup. She stood in the center of everyone's sight, and everyone looked at her with envy and admiration.
Especially when He Meijiao said in person that "everything is 40% off" and that purchases over five yuan would receive a pound of eggs, the crowd was almost boiling with excitement and the noise was endless.
This is exactly the effect He Meijiao wants.
She must be a shining presence in the crowd, and everyone must surround her, crowd around her, and look up at her with their heads held high.
And she can trample everyone else under her feet.
After He Meijiao finished her speech, the spacious and bright shop officially opened for business. The people who were originally blocking the door rushed in, fearing that they would not be able to buy what they wanted.
The crowd rushed forward.
He Meijiao had already seen Chu Yue and the sisters-in-law in the surrounding courtyards. She was walking towards them in high heels with a smile on her face.
He Meijiao smiled brightly and greeted them warmly, "Sisters-in-law, you are here too. Are you here to celebrate for me?"
Half a year ago, He Meijiao had a very arrogant personality due to her family background. She didn't like to interact with her sisters-in-law of ordinary backgrounds and looked down on them as country people.
At that time, Wang Xiulan, who loved to take advantage of others, kept sticking to He Meijiao and saying all kinds of enthusiastic words, so that she could eat and drink for free.
Now, after being separated for half a year, they unexpectedly saw He Meijiao greeting them with a smile, so approachable.
Is this person still He Meijiao?
The sisters-in-law were all stunned.
Li Dahua asked, "Comrade He, we all heard that you went back to the capital, why are you here again?"
"What's wrong, sisters-in-law, don't you want to see me?" He Meijiao asked back. Even though there was a smile on her face, her tone revealed a coldness.
It makes people's hearts tremble.
Li Aihong quickly denied it, "No, no, that's not what we meant. We're just curious and concerned about you, so we're asking."
"Sisters-in-law, I am doing very well now. As you can see, the three big shops are all mine. Unlike some people, I don't rent my shops, I bought them." He Meijiao specifically emphasized that she "bought" them.
Sure enough, the sisters-in-law were shocked by He Meijiao's financial resources and exclaimed "Wow" one after another.
He Meijiao nodded with great satisfaction.
She deliberately didn't talk to Chu Yue, as if she didn't see Chu Yue. In fact, she cared about her very much and felt uncomfortable if she didn't mention Chu Yue.
Chu Yue just likes to pretend to be a good person and get close to these sisters-in-law.
He Meijiao didn't believe that Chu Yue really fell in love with these country people, she was just pretending.
Since Chu Yue likes to pretend, she will pretend too.
He Meijiao suddenly took the hand of one of her sisters-in-law and said, "Sisters-in-law, although we have only been apart for a few months, I still remember how you took care of me and treated me well during those days in the barracks."
"If it weren't for you, I might have given up long ago. You took care of me before, and now it's my turn to take care of you."
"Sisters-in-law, when you go in and buy something, just tell the salesperson my name, and no matter what you buy, no matter how much, it's all 50% off!"
"50...50% off? It's really 50% off, that's half the price." The sisters-in-law were so shocked that they stopped breathing.
He Meijiao smiled proudly and nodded, "Of course it's true. How could anything I, He Meijiao, say be false? I'm the boss, and a boss has to keep his word. It's always 50% off. I'm much more generous than some people."
This certain person is Chu Yue.
Because the discounts she gave to the sisters-in-law in the compound were not that much.
He Meijiao actually knew even such trivial matters. Who did she ask? Or did she not return to the capital, but secretly monitor her and Lu Zhanlin?
If it's the latter, that's terrible.
But it is highly unlikely.
If He Meijiao had such a good ability to hide, she would not have been so exposed during the Lantern Festival, and finally Chu Yue would have caught her and kicked her out of the military camp.
Maybe she put in some effort to investigate it.
"So...are we going in?"
"Come on, let's go in! I lined up here early this morning, but I still haven't bought anything! Let's move on!"
As the first person walked forward, the sisters-in-law walked into He Meijiao's shop one after another. Under this situation, no other sisters-in-law dared to look at Chu Yue.
Even though they received a lot of care from Chu Yue in the past, they still tended to pursue their own interests.
In the blink of an eye, Chen Fengying was the only person left standing beside Chu Yue.
Chen Fengying didn't know about the ridiculous things He Meijiao had done, and she thought that He Meijiao was just like Fang Xiuli, just with a bad temper, and was essentially a kind person.
She persuaded He Meijiao, "Meijiao, listen to your sister-in-law's advice. There are many good men in the world. You are so beautiful and have such a good family. Why do you have to hang yourself on a tree? Let's stop fooling around and just be friends, right?"
"Haha, nonsense? Haha, friend?" He Meijiao sneered playfully and finally looked up at Chu Yue.
This look was full of vicious resentment.
He Meijiao said shamelessly, "Sister Chen, I opened my shop, what does it have to do with Chu Yue? Just because Chu Yue can open a shop, I can't. Is this street hers? Or is it her who set the laws and regulations? Chu Yue and I are both your friends. Why don't you persuade Chu Yue to stop opening a shop and go back?"
"Mei Jiao, you know that's not what I mean. Of course you can open a shop, but it was Sister Chu who first--"
Chu Yue pulled Chen Fengying's arm to stop her from saying the next words.
He Meijiao is now full of hatred. She can't listen to anything and no matter how much you say, it's useless.
Chu Yue said directly, "He Meijiao, you think the person you are targeting is me. Don't talk about other things, and don't embarrass Sister Chen. If you have anything to say, just come to me."
"Haha, Chu Yue, you finally stopped being a good person? You're right, I came here for you! Why should I be stripped of my military uniform because of you! Why should I be kicked out of the army!" He Meijiao hated Chu Yue with gnashing teeth.
Because when she took off her military uniform and returned home to the capital in a panic, what awaited her was not the love and care of her family, but instead a barrage of accusations from her grandfather...
