With the bad luck charm, the wedding process was full of drama. Wang Qingwei tripped and fell during the wedding, losing two teeth.
He cut his hand while cutting the cake, kissed the bride's nose while kissing her, and finally, he got drunk and had to be carried into the bridal chamber.
Mr. and Mrs. Wang couldn't see their son all day and couldn't communicate with him, so they were not used to it at all. After living there for a month, they returned to the countryside.
Looking at their desolate home, the two elderly people, who had been landlords in the first half of their lives and were taken care of by their daughter-in-law in the second half, felt the malice of life after only a few years of hardship.
No one brings them cooked meals anymore, and no one folds and washes their clothes for them to change into.
No one cares about their feelings anymore, no one coaxes them to see a doctor, and no one buys them candy to wipe away the bitterness after taking their medicine...
Only then did they realize how much Chang Xiaoli had sacrificed for them.
Unfortunately, we can never go back.
Wang Qingwei wasn't having an easy time either. He moved into Jiang Lanxin's house, and the way the nanny looked at him made him feel like he was a kept man.
He suggested firing her, but Jiang Lanxin said that she was the aunt who had taken care of her since she was a child, how could he be so heartless?
His status in the Jiang family was even lower than that of a nanny.
He wanted to make a name for himself in the factory, but things never went smoothly. There were always mistakes or oversights. He was exhausted and constantly on the go.
He was busy until late at night, and his car broke down again. He didn't get home until the early hours of the morning.
Jiang Lanxin was sitting on the sofa, watching a movie with the remote control.
"You're only coming back now? You never even have time to spend with me. What's the point of marrying you?"
Wang Qingwei wanted to get angry. In the past, when he returned home, Chang Xiaoli would always prepare delicious meals and talk to him gently about trivial matters.
However, Jiang Lanxin's identity forced Wang Qingwei to restrain his temper.
"I'm very busy. I'll spend time with you when I have time, okay?"
Jiang Lanxin is not Chang Xiaoli; she is a young lady from a wealthy family and will not tolerate humiliation, much less comfort others.
"When will you be free? You're never free."
Wang Qingwei was a little tired and didn't want to argue, so he went into the room with a cold face.
Jiang Lanxin felt extremely wronged. She rushed out of the house and went to her best friend to complain.
Wang Qingwei didn't pay attention; he was already fast asleep.
Jiang Lanxin poured out all her grievances to Su Rumeng.
"Isn't he being incredibly unreasonable? He only has this good life because of our family, and now that we're married, he treats me like I'm nothing. It's infuriating..."
Su Rumeng pursed her lips. Everyone knows that Wang Qingwei was forcibly taken by this young lady. It would be quite a scene if the original wife from the countryside didn't cause trouble.
However, while she thought this in her heart, she said some nice things.
"Wang Qingwei is so ungrateful. Our Xinxin is so kind, and he doesn't even appreciate it."
Jiang Lanxin nodded in agreement and began to speak well of Wang Qingwei.
"Actually, you can't blame him. He's been quite busy lately. He just became the factory manager, so he has to clean up the factory."
"Fine, fine, I'm not going to argue with him. I'm going home now. You guys have fun, it's on me tonight."
Su Rumeng watched Jiang Lanxin get up and go home, leaving her in the private room. She felt annoyed. If it weren't for her father's company relying on the Jiang family, she wouldn't want to coax this young lady.
Since tonight's expenses were all hers, she could have as much fun as she wanted. Thinking of this, Su Rumeng became happy again.
I invited a few girlfriends, ordered a table full of good wine and food, and had a great time.
Jiang Lan thought about it the whole way. Wang Qingwei had indeed been quite busy lately. It was all because her father had assigned him the wrong subordinates. They were completely useless. Look how exhausted he was.
Thinking of this, Jiang Lanxin felt sorry for Wang Qingwei again. When she got home, she saw that he had fallen asleep without even taking off his clothes, and she felt even more guilty.
She carefully undressed Wang Qingwei to make him more comfortable. This young lady, who had never served anyone before, was surprisingly attentive.
"Sizzle..."
Before she knew it, her sleeve was torn, leaving Jiang Lanxin feeling embarrassed.
"The material of this garment isn't very durable either. I'll file a complaint with the store tomorrow."
Wang Qingwei was lying on his side, and Jiang Lan wanted to turn him over, so she pushed.
"ah……"
Wang Qingwei felt a piercing pain; his arm was broken. When he opened his eyes, he saw Jiang Lanxin standing guiltily in front of the bed. What else could he not understand?
After so many days of resentment and anger surging up, wasn't he humbled enough? This is truly bullying.
"Smack..."
Wang Qingwei hit Jiang Lanxin with his other, undamaged hand.
"How could you be so vicious? I'm already so tired, can't you see that? Do you only feel comfortable if you kill me, is that it?"
Jiang Lanxin covered her face in disbelief. When had she ever been hit like this? She was always the one hitting others.
"No, that's not true."
Wang Qingwei ignored him completely. He got up, put on his shoes, and walked towards the door; he was going to the hospital.
Jiang Lanxin burst into tears; she was also very aggrieved.
Thinking of Wang Qingwei's broken arm, she calmed down and instructed the family driver to take him to the hospital. She then went to the kitchen to use ice to reduce the swelling.

Xiao Li brought her child to Youcheng, a prosperous city that was like another world compared to the countryside.
If it were the original owner, she would definitely be very reserved, but Xiao Li was already used to it.
She easily found a hotel to stay in, and then went to look for shops. After several days of visiting various places, she rented a small shop with a mezzanine on the second floor.
Xiao Li plans to sell fruit; she already has more fruit in her spatial storage than she can eat.
There was no surveillance in this era, so everything was convenient.
The children will stay in the attic for now, and we'll buy a bigger house when we earn more money.
"Mom, I love it here. There are thick mats on the floor to use as a bed. The bed is so big and comfortable."
Wang Yanzhen looked around happily. This place was much better than her old house. Even though it was a little smaller, it was clean, tidy, and beautiful.
Wang Yanxi was also happy; she had a new dress and new paintbrushes.
"If you like it, then decorate the room yourself. This is where we'll be staying."
Both daughters happily went to pack their things.
Xiao Li was also very satisfied. Although the attic was small, it was perfectly fine for three people to live in. Now she wanted to open a fruit shop, and then there was the issue of her daughters' school.
The shop is very simple; a fruit shop is just a few shelves and an electronic scale.
Xiao Li printed some posters and distributed them. With super low prices and high-quality fruit, the store quickly became popular.
After the promotional period, Xiaoli divided the shop into two parts: one half sold fruit from the space at extremely high prices, and the other half sold fruit from wholesale sources at normal prices.
Once things settled down, Xiaoli hired a shop assistant and went out to find a way to get her household registration sorted out.
