If your neighbor is a villain and you frame him in public, what will outsiders think?
Faced with Cheng Xueru's questioning, Zheng Ya shook his head helplessly and smiled, "There are all kinds of people in a hundred, right?"
In these famine-stricken years, wouldn't it be surprising to find a neighbor who resents others' success, laughs at others' failures, and tramples on those who rise to the top?
"Yes, Fan Jinyou, the manager of our two stores, is supposed to be a street office cadre, a gentleman, and serve the people, right?"
But we have all witnessed Fan Jinyou's despicable nature.
It seems that no matter what a person's background is, their character and family circumstances will inevitably lead to negative traits, making it difficult to predict whether they will be good or bad! Xu Huizhen bought the items with great satisfaction.
The implication was that she was thanking Zheng Ya for helping her expose Fan Jinyou, this despicable harasser.
With just one sentence, Cheng Xueru's plan to get information out of Zheng Ya was disrupted. She said irritably, "Tch, people marry into their compound for your sister, and they're constantly being disgusted and schemed against by petty people."
"You're really sabotaging me! You've got some nerve!"
"Haha, do you think I don't know what you're thinking?" Xu Huizhen was afraid that she and Xu Qi would try to steal him away, putting her in a difficult position!
But in Cheng Xueru's eyes, Xu Qi was a widow just like her. Why could Xu Qi have Zheng Ya all to herself, and why couldn't she?
As long as they are not married, do they still have a chance to steal the man they love?
So Cheng Xueru said indignantly, "What am I thinking? Speak up!"
"Haha, I fell for your provocation as soon as I said it. You've indirectly revealed your thoughts. You're really dreaming!" Xu Huizhen said with disdain as she added roast duck to Jingli's plate.
This made her feel that Cheng Xueru was obsessed with men.
Just as Zheng Ya was facing a secret battle between the two women for her affections, and Xu Qi was feeling pressured and eating uncomfortably, Lou Bancheng and his family of three walked out of the Quanjude Roast Duck Restaurant and started arguing: "Look, is this the son-in-law you chose? He's already run away?"
"Oh, how was I supposed to know he was this kind of person!" Xiao'e's mother was filled with regret, but she couldn't bring herself to say that this capitalist had dragged her daughter down with him.
That was a threat from Xu Damao's family. If they didn't agree to let them marry off their daughter, they would sue the Lou family to the neighborhood committee and wait to be imprisoned and executed.
The reason was that the Lou family had hoarded a large number of gold and antiques, which they did not hand over after the liberation, thus accumulating wealth.
If you're accused of being conservative, hoarding secrets, or alienated from the masses, you're doomed even if you don't die.
Xiao'e's mother talked in her sleep and revealed the family's wealth.
Xu Damao's mother was a servant in the Lou family. After hearing this, she threatened Xiao'e's mother, saying that she would marry off her daughter and share a portion of the Lou family's wealth.
Otherwise, the Lou family will be destroyed.
Xiao'e's mother dared not tell Lou Bancheng about this, only telling her daughter, for fear that Lou Bancheng would be so angry that he might do something drastic, or hire someone to kill someone and get himself into trouble.
After all, the Lou family is currently under close surveillance, and they dare not move their hidden treasures even if they want to.
Under these circumstances, Xiao'e's mother reluctantly persuaded Xiao'e to marry Xu Damao in exchange for the family's well-being.
Lou Xiao'e felt as if she had lost her soul, and walked forward listlessly: "Okay, Mom and Dad, stop arguing, I'm annoyed!"
"Hey, why don't we let Xiao'e and Xu Damao divorce? They've only got their marriage certificate, they're not married yet, so it's not too late to get a divorce!" Lou Bancheng didn't want his daughter to suffer with that good-for-nothing Xu Damao.
Xiao'e's mother kept wiping away tears, which made Lou Xiao'e's heart flutter: "Dad, I won't get a divorce."
"Don't worry, it's better if Xu Damao is useless. As long as your daughter is successful, controlling him will be a piece of cake."
"Xiao'e, you really need to think this through. Judging from Xu Damao's performance today, he's not even close to Zheng Ya. He's not a good match!" Lou Bancheng pleaded with his daughter, genuinely unable to understand what she saw in Xu Damao.
People like Xu Damao, who abandoned his wife and ran away, are the traitors and deserters Zheng Ya mentioned.
Furthermore, Xu Damao's accusations of framing Zheng Ya for disregarding his superiors are all far-fetched and one-sided, typical of a petty person who is only interested in harming others and climbing up the ladder by stepping on them.
At first glance, he seems to have good speaking skills.
After understanding the true nature of the matter, Xu Damao was clearly a complete opportunist.
Compared to Zheng Ya's abilities, Xu Damao was utterly useless.
Lou Xiao'e now knows that Xu Damao is not the right man for her, but thinking that Xu Damao is going to report her parents, she has no other choice. She forced back her hatred for Xu Damao's family and smiled, "Dad, don't worry about me!"
Even if I divorce Xu Damao now, I will still be branded as a gold digger and a shameless person.
"If our daughter's reputation is ruined, it will also affect you two!"
"Hey, Xiao'e, I still advise you to think it over carefully. Even if you divorce Xu Damao and get a bad reputation, it's still better than marrying that scumbag Xu Damao, right?" Lou Bancheng still wanted to persuade his daughter to change her mind.
The family was entangled in this issue.
Xu Damao quietly followed them not far behind and overheard some of their conversation. He was so angry that he gritted his teeth, and his hatred for Zheng Ya grew infinitely stronger.
As Xu Damao passed by the cooperative, he saw an unexpected person, Wu Wei, and immediately took notice. He stepped forward and asked, "Excuse me, are you Zheng Ya's fiancée?"
"Who are you?" Wu Wei turned around and saw him spying on her with his shifty eyes. She asked him angrily.
The two met for the first time and did not recognize each other.
But Xu Damao had a penchant for inquiring about beautiful women. When he was working at the steel mill, he overheard people talking about Zheng Ya's fiancée, Wu Wei, and went over to ask them for a general overview.
Naturally, they also inquired about Wu Wei's appearance, figure, and other facial features.
Zheng Ya's powerful return almost cost him money to avoid disaster, but he was ultimately spared the crisis by being beaten up by Sha Zhu, though he still hated Zheng Ya to the core.
If Zheng Ya hadn't made a strong comeback, he wouldn't have been beaten up by Sha Zhu.
At that moment, Xu Damao was seething with hatred thinking about the humiliation Zheng Ya had inflicted on him at Quanjude Roast Duck Restaurant. Ascertaining Wu Wei's identity, he said, "I am Xu Damao, the projectionist at the steel mill. It's a pleasure to meet you."
"Hello, what can I do for you?" Wu Wei had been working in security for several years. Seeing the glint in his eyes, she was certain that he had no good intentions in coming to see her.
Sure enough, Xu Damao dropped a bombshell right off the bat: "You didn't know, did you?"
Your fiancé, Zheng Ya, is having roast duck with his wife and children at Quanjude Roast Duck Restaurant, accompanied by two other beautiful women..."
"Xu Damao, right? Is everything you said true? You're not lying to me?" Wu Wei was furious.
These past two days have felt like an eternity, with so much happening.
The two days, filled with many events and lasting long, allowed her to experience a level of frustration and humiliation she had never felt before through Zheng Ya.
The original plan was to move into Zheng Ya's house and carry out a full-scale revenge against him, but what happened next?
What followed was the news that Zheng Ya already had a wife and children?
How could Director Wang not know about this? Why didn't he tell her? Wu Wei was so angry she almost exploded.
Seeing that her eyes were red with anger, Xu Damao suppressed a laugh and said, "I wouldn't dare to say such things carelessly. You'll know if you go and see for yourself..."
