Chapter 100 Hug and Hug In
the middle of winter, Wu Xiangqiao packed up her few things, put on some clothes, and was kicked out.
Yes, she was kicked out.
When she heard that the house did not belong to Cao Hongyu, but to Lu Fengjiao, Wu Xiangqiao's first reaction was: How is it possible? These guys must be liars!
However, these guys took out their work certificates from the court, and Wu Xiangqiao had no choice but to believe it. But
Wu Xiangqiao was still unwilling to accept it. She had just enjoyed everything in this house and felt that she had finally become the hostess here.
As a result, not long after that, her dream was shattered.
Wu Xiangqiao actually just refused to leave, but in the end, she had no choice but to admit her mistake when she saw that the other party accused her of obstructing official business and that she would be breaking the law if she continued like this. She
packed her things reluctantly while crying and scolding Cao Hongyu and Lu Fengjiao.
She was also going to pack some valuable things, but before she left, the group of people had to check, and after checking one by one, they directly took out those things that did not belong to her.
Wu Xiangqiao was so angry that she said, "Is this also pre-marital property?"
The staff said, "Yes, you can't take it away."
Wu Xiangqiao was almost vomiting blood. It turned out that all the valuable things in this room were pre-marital property?
In the end, Wu Xiangqiao only took away a few clothes she had recently bought. She stood trembling at the door of her house, watching the court people seal the house.
Wu Xiangqiao was so angry that her eyes were about to pop out, and she wanted to tear the seal off, but she didn't dare.
She didn't want to go to jail because she hadn't enjoyed the life of a rich person enough.
Wu Xiangqiao called Cao Hongyu with grievance. The other party's voice was tired and impatient: "Okay, I have another house, let's live there first."
Cao Hongyu is now in a state of panic. He doesn't want to care about Wu Xiangqiao, but he has to live there himself. That house has not been occupied for a long time, so let Wu Xiangqiao go and clean it up first.
Wu Xiangqiao breathed a sigh of relief, and she said, how could Cao Hongyu not even have a house.
The house here is so big, the other one should not be bad either.
As a result, when Wu Xiangqiao arrived at the place, she was dumbfounded. This is just an ordinary community, an ordinary three-bedroom and one-living room house, and it looks dirty because no one has lived in it for a long time.
It can't be compared with the duplex at all!
In fact, although this house is not good, it is almost the same. But with the pearl and jade in front, Wu Xiangqiao simply couldn't bear this huge gap for a while.
What's the difference between this and the house she rented before? It's even more shabby than the house she rented! Then why did she marry Cao Hongyu?
Wu Xiangqiao sat blankly on the dusty sofa, crying silently.
Cao Shaojie also came here in a daze. As soon as he entered the door, he saw his mother sitting on the sofa crying.
"Mom, what's wrong with you? Why are you crying?" Cao Shaojie actually felt a little upset, but he didn't want to admit it.
Because the house they lived in before belonged to Lu Fengjiao, he didn't want to admit that he was greedy for the material things she gave him. He comforted himself that as long as their family was together, it didn't matter if they didn't live in a big house.
As a result, he found out that Wu Xiangqiao didn’t think so. She cried and made a fuss: “You and your family are in cahoots to deceive me! That house belongs to Lu Fengjiao, why didn’t you tell me earlier? How can I live in such a shabby house? I won’t live there!”
Cao Shaojie had never seen Wu Xiangqiao like this before, and was a little confused: “Mom, isn’t it good for our family to be together? You said that even if it’s a small house, we can live well!”
Wu Xiangqiao almost laughed. This child was spoiled by Lu Fengjiao. Can she believe what she said?
But Wu Xiangqiao could only endure it. She thought that Cao Hongyu must have made a lot of money after working for so many years. When he came back, she would make Cao Hongyu find a way to hand over the money so that she could buy a big house of her own!
"Buy a house?" Cao Hongyu came back with a heavy heart. He was shocked when he heard Wu Xiangqiao's words: "Why buy a house if we already have one?"
Wu Xiangqiao was anxious: "This house is so shabby, are we going to live here forever? Buy a bigger one? It will be fine if it's similar to the duplex."
Cao Hongyu laughed angrily after hearing this. He held his breath and said: "Okay, you can buy it with your own money. You can buy any size you want. It's no problem to buy a villa."
Wu Xiangqiao thought he was joking: "Where do I have the money to buy it?"
"You have no money, but I do?" The more Cao Hongyu looked at her, the more he disliked her. Lu Fengjiao was so nice before. She never asked him for money. The Lu family loved Lu Fengjiao and often subsidized them. He got a lot of benefits from this.
And what about Wu Xiangqiao? She couldn't help him at all, but she still asked him for money. It was really incomparable: "Why did I get together with you!"
"Blame me? Wasn't it you who took the initiative to find me?" Wu Xiangqiao was too lazy to coax him now. She was more concerned about other things: "You said you have no money? How is that possible! Where is your money!"
"That's all you saw." Cao Hongyu naturally didn't tell Wu Xiangqiao everything, but that part was indeed half of his savings.
As he spoke, he frowned and tapped his phone. He had found a leader today and wanted to ask for help from his connections, but he didn't know if he got a reply.
Not seeing a reply, Cao Hongyu frowned even more tightly, and found that there were many unread text messages. He was so busy recently that he didn't pay attention to them.
After clicking on it and seeing the content, his face changed immediately. One by one, they were all deduction text messages of tens of thousands.
With a balance of millions, there was less than 200,000 left?
"What's the matter with all this money?" Cao Hongyu almost thought that the bank had stolen his money.
"Oh, I bought some clothes and bags, and it didn't cost much." Wu Xiangqiao really didn't think it was a big deal. After all, when they were not married before, Cao Hongyu would also buy bags to coax her.
She had no idea that the bags she used to coax her were also from Lu Fengjiao.
With only this little money left and his future uncertain, Cao Hongyu was almost mad to death, and he raised his hand to hit Wu Xiangqiao: "You spendthrift woman, you have squandered all my savings over the years, return these things to me, if you don't return the money, I will never forgive you!"
Wu Xiangqiao was stunned by the beating, looking at Cao Hongyu's not-so-hypocritical anger, she was a little panicked, what she cared about was not the fact that he hit her, but... Cao Hongyu was so anxious because of such a small amount of money, he couldn't be that poor.
Wu Xiangqiao was unwilling to accept it, she didn't confront Cao Hongyu, she found an opportunity to ask Cao Shaojie about the family's financial situation.
Then she learned that the Cao family lived so well off in the past because the Lu family subsidized them.
Wu Xiangqiao’s first reaction: Cao Hongyu is sick! Lu Fengjiao’s family is so rich, yet he cheated on her!
So, Cao Hongyu secretly supported her outside before, and even spent Lu Fengjiao’s money?
Wu Xiangqiao almost fainted, not knowing whether she was angry or speechless. She couldn’t help but yell at Cao Shaojie: "Why didn’t you say so earlier! If I had known, I would have been my mistress quietly. At the very least, I would have at least had a good relationship with Lu Fengjiao..."
Cao Shaojie was stunned when he heard this, and grabbed Wu Xiangqiao and frowned, saying: "Mom, didn’t you say that it was Lu Fengjiao who destroyed the relationship between you and my dad? "You two are in love, how can you say that you are a mistress? And you are trying to please her... even worse, it's obviously her fault, why should she ask you to please her? Why do you want to put yourself in a difficult position?"
Cao Shaojie said anxiously and excitedly. He felt a little uneasy when he heard Wu Xiangqiao's words, so he subconsciously refuted her, hoping to stop Wu Xiangqiao from talking nonsense in this way.
However, Wu Xiangqiao was in no mood to care about these things. She was simply upset now. She had gone to great lengths to marry Cao Hongyu, not to suffer in the Cao family!
In fact, the current situation of the Cao family can't be considered as hardship, but Wu Xiangqiao has been accustomed to getting something for nothing for so many years. Moreover, she thought that she would live a rich life after marrying into the Cao family. The huge gap between the two makes her a little unacceptable. Anyway,
at this point, she is too lazy to pretend, and said directly: "Why should I please her? Because she is rich, I don't think I have wronged myself. I think I was wronged before, coaxing Cao Hongyu all day long, but this guy is a gigolo."
"He is a gigolo, and he dares to find a mistress!" Wu Xiangqiao put herself in Lu Fengjiao's shoes and suddenly understood why the other party was so angry.
But Wu Xiangqiao didn't think it was her fault. In this matter, it was Cao Hongyu who made the mistake. Even if Wu Xiangqiao wasn't there, with his character, there would be someone else.
"Because she is rich?" Cao Shaojie raised his voice in disbelief. For a moment, he couldn't accept that this came out of Wu Xiangqiao's mouth. Wu Xiangqiao was obviously not like this before. How could she suddenly change, or she was actually pretending... When
Cao Shaojie thought of this, his face looked a little ugly. He pulled Wu Xiangqiao tightly and asked with questioning: "Then tell me, is what you told me before true?"
"What do you mean it's not true?" Wu Xiangqiao frowned. Does this brat want to strangle her to death?
Cao Shaojie: "You said that it was Lu Fengjiao who destroyed you and my dad, and took advantage of her power to bully others and snatch me away... Is this true?"
"Are you stupid? You still believe this now." Wu Xiangqiao did not have much affection for Cao Shaojie. To her, Cao Shaojie was just a tool for her to marry into the Cao family. Now, this tool is even less important.
"I lied to you..." Wu Xiangqiao told the truth directly.
After hearing this, Cao Shaojie was shocked. He pushed Wu Xiangqiao away and covered his head in pain, saying: "You lied to me, why did you lie to me!"
He thought of Lu Fengjiao's unbelievable eyes when he accused her. The other party must have been extremely disappointed with him. Cao Shaojie seemed to wake up at this time and fell into deep regret.
Why did he foolishly believe Wu Xiangqiao's words? It was Lu Fengjiao who raised him!
Wu Xiangqiao looked at Cao Shaojie speechlessly, and suddenly thought of something. She walked to Cao Shaojie and said with a smile: "Son, why don't you go back to find Lu Fengjiao?"
Cao Shaojie turned his head to look at her with red eyes.
"After all, you were raised by Lu Fengjiao. In her heart, there is no difference between you and her own son. You go to her and apologize to her. She will definitely forgive you." Wu Xiangqiao urged him while making a small calculation. If Lu Fengjiao could still take a screenshot of Cao Shaojie, she would let Cao Shaojie ask Lu Fengjiao for money in the future, so that she could spend it.
"Hey, I was obsessed with it before. If she forgives you, please apologize to her for me..." Wu Xiangqiao said lightly, not realizing how much harm their actions had caused to Lu Fengjiao. She really thought that she could get over it with a simple apology. Cao Shaojie
didn't hear clearly what Wu Xiangqiao said next. His mind was full of thoughts about finding Lu Fengjiao and seeking her forgiveness.
Seeing that Cao Shaojie really intended to find Lu Fengjiao, Wu Xiangqiao was satisfied. She only hoped that Lu Fengjiao could be soft-hearted and treat Cao Shaojie as her son again.
Cao Shaojie came to the Lu family, but was stopped outside the door by the Lu family's nanny. He was stunned. After all, he had been stopped every time he came here before.
"Mrs. Li, tell my mother that I want to see her..." Cao Shaojie noticed the contempt on Mrs. Li's face, and his face became hot. He tried hard to ignore her gaze and did not run away.
He thought that he should apologize to his mother in person. He was really wrong. He was the one who was deceived before.
However, after Mrs. Li left, she never came out again, as if she had forgotten that there was someone at the door.
In the middle of winter, Cao Shaojie just stood shivering in the cold wind.
The Lu family is celebrating the New Year soon, and everyone in the Lu family is in high spirits, preparing to celebrate the New Year well, so that Lu Fengjiao can forget about all the unhappiness and be happy.
Lu's father was writing Spring Festival couplets for his friends, and when he heard Li's mother coming over to say that Cao Shaojie had come, the couplet that was almost finished suddenly had an abrupt ink mark.
Lu's father threw the pen in his hand and splattered the ink all over the table: "This conscienceless little beast, he still has the nerve to come here!"
Lu's mother heard the noise, walked over and saw the mess on the table and Lu's father with an ugly face, and worriedly said, "What happened?"
Lu's father had an ugly face and didn't say anything. Li's mother said something, and sure enough, Lu's mother's face became equally ugly.
"What should we do? If Feng Jiao sees this, she will be sad again." Mother Lu was fidgeting: "How about I ask someone to chase him away?"
"What do you mean chase him away?" Father Lu snorted coldly: "Just let him stand at the door and ignore him!"
"What if Feng Jiao sees it..." Mother Lu was a little hesitant.
"If she sees it, she will see it. Feng Jiao is just protected too well. For more than 20 years, she didn't find any clues!" Father Lu slammed the table: "If she still has a soft heart towards that little beast, I will ignore her!"
Mother Lu knew that he was just talking in anger, and she was too lazy to argue with him. After hesitating for a while, she didn't chase Cao Shaojie away.
It was better to have Cao Shaojie secretly looking for their daughter under their noses than for them not to know.
Soon, Lu Fengjiao found Cao Shaojie standing outside. She only took a glance and then looked away.
"Fengjiao..." Lu's mother looked at her worriedly.
Lu Fengjiao forced a smile: "I am a little soft-hearted, but I know what to do and what not to do."
Cao Shaojie's attitude completely hurt her heart. Even though she couldn't help but feel soft-hearted, her mind still made it impossible for her to forgive Cao Shaojie.
Moreover, no matter what Cao Shaojie was like now, he couldn't change the fact that he was the son of Cao Hongyu and Wu Xiangqiao.
If Lu Fengjiao gave him any help, it would be equivalent to helping Cao Hongyu and Wu Xiangqiao. Just thinking about it made her feel as disgusted as if she had eaten a fly.
She retracted her gaze, closed the curtains, and blocked out everything outside.
Mother Lu was both relieved and distressed, and secretly wiped away her tears: "You, it's good that you can figure it out."
In the end, Lu Fengjiao did not show up, but Cao Shaoqi came out. He had changed his last name to Lu Shaoqi.
Lu Shaoqi walked over and said something to Cao Shaojie. Not long after, the other party left in a daze.
Cao Shaojie got a high fever when he returned home. Wu Xiangqiao originally wanted to ask him how he was, but seeing his expression, there was no need to ask.
Wu Xiangqiao's mood instantly became bad. She gave Cao Shaojie medicine and didn't take care of him. She didn't know how to take care of people.
Cao Shaojie was lying in bed alone, and suddenly he thought of his childhood. He was sick once, and Lu Fengjiao stayed with him day and night. Every time he woke up, a pair of hands would gently touch his forehead, and then pat him gently to coax him to sleep.
As he thought about it, a line of tears flowed from the corner of his eyes.
——That
day, Cao Hongyu came back in a daze and brought back the news that he was unemployed.
He now admitted that it was easy for the Lu family to help him, and it would be easy for him to lose everything again. When
Wu Xiangqiao heard that he was unemployed, she did not comfort him, but screamed: "If you don't have a job, what will we eat and drink, and what will I spend!"
Wu Xiangqiao simply couldn't accept it! She was already a little uncomfortable when she found out that the Cao family was very poor, and now Cao Hongyu was directly unemployed.
Wouldn't that mean the family will be even poorer in the future? Thinking of this, Wu Xiangqiao's face turned pale.
"What are you yelling at? You are so old, don't you know how to take care of yourself?" Cao Hongyu was already in an irritable mood, so he didn't have the nerve to hold back his temper and immediately yelled back.
"If I can support myself, would I need to marry you?" If an ordinary person was said like this by Cao Hongyu, he would have been embarrassed long ago, but Wu Xiangqiao was still righteous: "Only an incompetent man would say such things! You two, father and son, are both good-for-nothings. One of you is unemployed and has lost his job, and the other one believes whatever others say. Now, Lu Fengjiao ignores him!"
With a "bang", Wu Xiangqiao covered her face and cursed in disbelief: "Cao Hongyu, you shameless man, you dare to hit me! I'm going to fight with you!"
Wu Xiangqiao rushed up and started fighting with Cao Hongyu. In an instant, the small house was filled with the sounds of things being thrown and cursing.
Cao Shaojie sat alone in the room, his expression dull, as if he could not hear anything happening outside.
In the end, the incident ended with both of them being admitted to the hospital.
Not long after, Wu Xiangqiao disappeared. When Cao Hongyu reacted, he found that all the valuables in the house had been swept away by that woman.
Wu Xiangqiao was really cruel. Not only did she not leave them a penny, she also tricked several people who bought houses into paying deposits. Cao Hongyu didn't react until several people made trouble at home.
After calling the police exhaustedly, Cao Hongyu returned to his cold and small home and suddenly burst into tears.
However, no matter how he cried, no one paid any attention to him.
——These
past few days, Wen Xiuyan has been playing dumb and never mentioned moving out.
To be honest, Jiang Yiqing didn't really want Wen Xiuyan to move out. Ever since the old man passed away, he was very bored. Although Wen Xiuyan wasn't a talkative person, he somehow made this home much warmer and more interesting. Jiang Yiqing
didn't like watching TV series before, and the TV at home wasn't turned on for several days. But after Wen Xiuyan came, the feeling of sitting in front of the TV and watching TV suddenly became interesting.
Moreover, Wen Xiuyan was too diligent. He was very diligent when his arm was not healed. After his arm healed, Jiang Yiqing basically didn't cook for himself, and the floor at home was always kept very clean. Alas,
the more I think about it, the more I can't bear to part with Wen Xiuyan.
However, Jiang Yiqing found it very interesting to see Wen Xiuyan deliberately changing the subject when he said it was time to move out.
He admitted that he was indeed a person with a very bad taste, and this bad taste was more vividly reflected in Wen Xiuyan.
Oh, Wen Xiuyan's arm has recovered recently, and he has changed from online work to offline work. He goes to work after breakfast every day and does not come back until the afternoon.
Well, this happened after Jiang Yiqing asked him to move out, and it is hard not to suspect that he was deliberately avoiding Jiang Yiqing to prevent the other party from asking him to move out again.
However, hiding like this all the time is obviously not a big deal.
Wen Xiuyan came back from the company, loosened his tie, and pushed open the door.
"Yiqing, I'm back." Wen Xiuyan likes to say this sentence a lot recently.
Jiang Yiqing was educating Pangpang. Pangpang's family was doing parkour again and was found by the neighbors downstairs. Jiang Yiqing was scolded by the grandmother downstairs like a grandson.
Wen Xiuyan saw Jiang Yiqing's fierce face when he entered the door. He curled his lips and put the small cake he bought on the coffee table without disturbing him.
Jiang Yiqing grabbed Pangpang's ears and said fiercely: "Hurry up and tell me, are you wrong?"
Pangpang actually realized his mistake, but he was the king of pigs. Admitting his mistakes to a human cub would simply undermine his dignity, so he refused to admit it!
[This king is right! ] Pangpang no longer pretended to be an ordinary pig in front of Wen Xiuyan, and he spoke directly.
"Okay, okay." Jiang Yiqing smiled. After a moment, there was a sound like a pig being slaughtered.
The grandmother downstairs knocked on the door again, trembling and majestic. She came over and said, "My child, this little animal must be taught well. No matter what, you can't kill it and eat the pork."
Jiang Yiqing: "..."
In the end, Pangpang still gave in. The pig hid in the corner and shut itself up. Milk Ball slowly walked over. After
Jiang Yiqing finished educating the pig, he saw the cake on the table and raised his eyebrows: "Did you buy it while passing by?"
Jiang Yiqing especially liked the cakes of this store, but in fact he had to go out of his way to buy them. Wen Xiuyan nodded.
Jiang Yiqing opened the cake and said while eating, "By the way, is the Chinese New Year coming soon?"
"Well, more than a week." Wen Xiuyan said.
Jiang Yiqing thought that he had to prepare for it, but it seemed meaningless to celebrate the New Year alone this year.
As for Wen Xiuyan, he couldn't just not go home for the New Year.
Jiang Yiqing suddenly felt that the cake in his mouth had lost its taste, and he lowered his eyes and poked the cake.
"What's wrong?" Wen Xiuyan was sensitive to his emotional changes and his eyes fell on his face.
"Nothing." Jiang Yiqing smiled and changed the subject casually: "By the way, when are you moving..."
"I'm not moving." For the first time, Wen Xiuyan bluntly refused to move out.
Jiang Yiqing was stunned for a moment, lowered his eyes and smiled: "The New Year is coming soon. If you don't leave, do you want to spend the New Year outside?"
Just after he finished speaking, he suddenly felt a faint, hot fragrance in his nose, which was the smell of shower gel. Obviously, they used the same one, but Jiang Yiqing felt that the smell was very different from his body.
Just smelling it, his ears felt hot. He reacted and was already in Wen Xiuyan's arms. The other party rested his chin on his shoulder and whispered: "Yiqing, you should understand my feelings."
