Chapter 062 Jinjiang First Launch

Bai Mian looked the old lady up and down. She looked energetic and high-spirited, and didn't look like she was in trouble. Lame Brother whispered in Bai Mian's ear, "It feels like this old lady can uproot a weeping willow tree..."

The old lady was not happy with the two people whispering to each other. She slammed the table angrily and said, "Hey, are you two listening to me?"

Lame Brother quickly said in a flattering manner: "Calm down and tell me first, who made you lose face?"

The old lady angrily hit the ground with her cane, pouted her lips and said, "Huh, it's all because of my mortal enemy, she... cough cough cough... you see, she's made me sick!" The old lady beat her chest and coughed non-stop. Lame brother poured her a cup of hot water, and after she drank it, she felt much better. She trembled and said, "Oh, my name is Zheng Qiuyan, and my mortal enemy is Ke Ci. We have known each other since we were young. We were in the same class when we were young, and we were colleagues in the same unit when we grew up. After we retired, we became mahjong partners. She compares herself with me in everything, but she can never beat me in anything."

At this point, the old lady recalled her past glory: "When I was in school, I was always the top student in the class. Ke Ci was my deskmate. Although she worked very hard, her grades were always slightly lower than mine. Sometimes she ranked second in the class, sometimes she ranked third. In short, she was always ranked behind me."

"After work, we entered the local fertilizer factory together. I was diligent and capable in the unit, and completed the work quickly and well. The leader valued me very much and soon promoted me to director. As for her, although her performance was also ok, she was not as good as me and only became deputy director."

"When I was old enough to get married, my family arranged a blind date for me with a man from a scholarly family. The man was polite and we got married soon. We have lived in harmony since then and have never had a quarrel in all these years. On the other hand, Ke Ci did not listen to her family's arrangements and insisted on having a free love relationship. She found a worker who did manual labor, but the worker turned out to be a short-lived person. He died a few years after the marriage, leaving her alone."

Zheng Qiuyan proudly talked about her children again: "Later, my husband and I gave birth to a son and a daughter. Both children are very outstanding. My daughter studied law and is now a famous lawyer in Beijing. My son studied foreign languages ​​and became a translator. Both children are engaged in high-paying jobs. I can't spend all the money they give me every year!"

"Ke Ci only has one daughter. Her short-lived husband died after she gave birth to her daughter. She never remarried and raised the child by herself. However, her daughter was not a good person. She was a naughty girl since she was young and her test scores were not good. She only went to a junior college. As a result, she encountered many setbacks after graduation and I heard that she still hasn't found a job!"

Zheng Qiuyan said this while covering her mouth and laughing, obviously very satisfied with her current situation. Lame Brother curled his lips in disdain and silently complained about this mean old lady in his heart.

Bai Mian asked: "It sounds like your life has always been better than Ke Ci's. Why do you say she made you lose face?"

Zheng Qiuyan said angrily, "Humph, I get angry just talking about it! In my circle of acquaintances, everyone says that I am doing better than her. Every time I play mahjong, the old people in the chess and card room are extremely jealous of me. Who knew that in the end, Ke Ci would actually turn the tables on me!"

"What do you mean?" Lame Brother straightened up and became interested. He was happy to see this mean old lady suffer.

Zheng Qiuyan said: "Yesterday afternoon, a group of us old acquaintances were playing mahjong in the chess and card room. I was very lucky yesterday. Every time I touched the card, it was accurate. None of them could beat me. Just when I was about to lose, Ke Ci suddenly stood up and announced that her daughter was getting married next month!"

"There's nothing wrong with getting married, but she actually said that her daughter was going to marry a rich man from the Middle East!"

"Wow, I heard there's oil everywhere there. If you marry there, you won't have to work for the rest of your life, right?" said Lame Brother enviously.

Zheng Duoyan gritted her teeth and said, "Yes, that's the expression you have now. When she announced the news of her marriage, everyone present had the same expression as yours. Everyone in the chess and card room ran to curry favor with her. She suddenly became the focus of our circle of friends and stole all the limelight from me. My game of cards was broken up on the spot, and I didn't even have a chance to win!"

Lame brother sneered: "Hey, so this is what you call losing face, what's the big deal, I found my boyfriend with my own ability, don't you allow me to get married?"

Zheng Qiuyan said irrationally, "Yes, I just can't stand the fact that she lives better than me! I thought her foreign son-in-law was a local tycoon, but yesterday I saw the photos on her Moments, and the guy turned out to be tall, handsome, and young, with no flaws at all. I was so mad, my lungs are about to explode!"

The lame brother was overjoyed: "Auntie, I advise you to be more positive. Look at you. You haven't done anything to others yet, but you've already made yourself sick. If you have to compare yourself with others everywhere in life, then life will be unbearable!"

Zheng Qiuyan didn't listen to what Lame said. She said to herself, "Why? Her daughter doesn't even have a job, how could she find such a good son-in-law? My two children haven't even married yet, and her son-in-law is a rich man. He has surpassed the efforts of several generations of us in one go. God is so unfair!"

"Ke Ci said that she would invite all of us old acquaintances to her daughter's wedding next month. Since everyone knew that her son-in-law is a rich man, everyone started to flatter her and no one paid attention to me. I won't let her be so proud. I must find a chance to make her lose face! Just wait and see, I will keep my word!"

Lame brother understood: "Auntie, you want a master to tell your fortune and see how to embarrass her? Listen to my advice, this is immoral. You have lost everyone's attention, so you are psychologically unbalanced. You should go see a psychiatrist."

Zheng Qiuyan sat on the chair stubbornly, refusing to leave. She looked at Bai Mian expectantly, hoping that Bai Mian would take her pulse.

Lame Brother advised again: "Auntie, I've already told you that our Little God of Wealth would never do such an immoral thing. Even if she has metaphysical abilities, she can't use them to harm people! You should just turn left and take a stroll to the mental hospital!"

"Wait a minute, I can give it a try." Bai Mian stopped Lame Brother. She looked at the stubborn old lady in front of her and became interested.
