Ye Zhiguo chuckled softly, a mocking glint in his eyes, and finally spoke, "What good is that meager salary? I can't afford a house, I can't afford a car, and I have to scrimp and save to eat meat. I never want to live that kind of poor life again!"
When I was a child, my family would buy a pound of meat. My grandmother would be reluctant to finish it in one meal. She would marinate the meat with salt and stir-fry only a small piece each time, not even an ounce. She would then cut the meat into pieces thinner than a hair, almost like minced meat, and cook it with a bunch of cabbage.
The dish was cooked into a large bowl, but all you could see was cabbage. You couldn't find any meat no matter how you turned it over, and you couldn't even taste the meat. Even with this kind of dish, they couldn't eat it every meal; they could only have it two or three times a month.
The vegetables we usually eat are cabbage and sweet potatoes, and tofu is a rare delicacy.
Therefore, Ye Zhiguo secretly vowed from a young age that he would become a rich man in the future, eat meat at every meal, and the meat had to be cut into large pieces, the kind that you couldn't finish in one bite, without adding any cabbage, at most adding some ginger and star anise and other seasonings, and eat as much as he wanted.
I never want to live the hard life I had as a child again!
The old lady sensed the disdain in Ye Zhiguo's tone, her face changed drastically, and she was heartbroken. "Are you blaming me? I may be incompetent and unable to provide you with meat every meal, but at least the money I earn is clean. Even if we eat vegetables and radishes, we can still hold our heads high."
Ye Zhiguo sneered, "Mom, things are different now. Only the rich can stand tall, it has nothing to do with cleanliness."
What good is it if you eat vegetables and radishes every day, no matter how clean they are?
Since ancient times, people have laughed at poverty but not at prostitution. He never wanted to live a poor life again. He was determined to become a superior person so that he could return home in glory!
However, just when they were about to reach the summit, that little bitch ruined everything, and all their efforts were in vain!
Ye Zhiguo gritted his teeth in hatred, his eyes like those of a venomous snake, staring intently at Ye Qingqing. He thought he had victory in the bag, but who would have thought that this little bitch would outsmart him!
“Money obtained by harming people, even if you eat meat every day, your conscience will not be at peace. Eldest son, what happened to you? You weren’t like this when you were a child!” The old lady felt that her eldest son was becoming more and more unfamiliar.
This was not her eldest son at all; the face of the Ye Zhiguo she remembered was becoming increasingly blurry!
Ye Zhiguo laughed sarcastically, "People change. Mom, you should go back to your hometown. With the second and third sons there, I can rest assured."
Up to now, Ye Zhiguo's only concern is his mother. Fortunately, his two younger brothers are quite filial, so his mother's life won't be too difficult.
“Mom is perfectly capable, you don’t need to worry about her. I’m worried about you… It’s almost Chinese New Year, and you’ve had such a serious accident. What are we going to do… I called Weiguo and the others yesterday and asked them to buy more things so your whole family could go home for the New Year… Now look at this…”
Overwhelmed with grief, the old woman covered her face with a handkerchief, and tears streamed down her face.
The Lunar New Year is just over ten days away, but something happened to my eldest brother, so he definitely can't come back. It should be a time for family reunion, but now the family is torn apart.
Ye Zhiguo was also upset, but he still didn't regret it.
He only regretted not being more ruthless. If he had been ruthless enough back then, that little bitch Ye Qingqing would never have had a chance to turn the tables!
If time could turn back, Ye Zhiguo would be more careful and ruthless, and would never leave any regrets!
Ye Qingqing watched coldly and saw that Ye Zhiguo had no remorse whatsoever, and her anger suddenly flared up!
