Chapter 200: A Good Hand Played Badly
On the weekend, Su Houli took time to visit Su Xiumei's house.
He actually didn't want to come.
Because of his relationship with Gao Meifeng, Su Xiumei got angry when she saw him and didn't treat him well: "If I hadn't called you, you wouldn't have come to see our mother. The factory director is not as busy as you."
"My mother is here to help you look after the children. It doesn't matter whether I come or not." Su Houli knew that Su Xiumei would scold him, and he was very disgusted. "If you have nothing else to do, I'll go back."
"Hmph, you're not happy after a few words to me." Su Xiumei sat on the sofa opposite him, holding the child. Xu Yuxiang handed her the bottle, and Su Xiumei took it and fed the child. She asked him, "Did you know about Chen Guilan and Su Jiaojiao moving to Century Garden?"
"I don't know!" Su Houli has been very busy recently, often working overtime all night, so he has no time to take care of the mother and daughter.
"Humph, you're as busy as your grandson, while the mother and daughter are living a comfortable life." Su Xiumei told Su Houli about Chen Guilan and Su Jiaojiao. "Even though they're divorced, Jiaojiao is your daughter after all. You can't just ask about her, right?"
"Why should I interfere?" Su Houli felt that Su Xiumei was just looking for trouble. "She's more capable than me now. How can I still control her?"
"Why don't you think about how they can afford to buy a house?" Xu Yuxiang thought Su Houli was stupid at work. "You've been working for so many years, and you can't afford a house. They moved into a new house within two years of moving to the city."
"Yes, why?" Su Houli didn't know either!
"You fool!" Xu Yuxiang cursed, "What can two women rely on?"
It’s all thanks to men, and wild men at that!
She had been thinking about it over and over again for the past two days and finally figured it out. Many people in the village saw the mother and daughter going in and out of the car. Did they think they were stupid?
"No way?" Su Houli had never heard of Chen Guilan or Su Jiaojiao being close to any man, but if they really moved into Century Garden, it would be really strange!
"Hou Li, I think you have been fooled by Chen Guilan, or to be more precise, by the mother and daughter!" Su Xiumei and Liang Wencai also bought a house for Liang Kun in Century Jiayuan. Of course, she knew very well what the price of the houses in Century Jiayuan was.
Moreover, the two buildings near the entrance are mostly three-bedroom apartments. They had to borrow tens of thousands of dollars to buy a two-bedroom apartment, let alone a three-bedroom apartment.
She wouldn't believe anything when she heard that Chen Guilan had made so much money in less than two years after coming to the city.
If Chen Guilan was so good at making money, she wouldn't have been divorced. Don't forget that she was a rural woman who never left the house.
"Mom, sister, are you saying that Chen Guilan has someone else outside?" Su Houli couldn't believe it. A surge of anger surged from the bottom of his heart. "When did it happen?"
He still thinks he was at fault first.
Give them houses and land...
"When else could it have happened? It was when Qin Shuang went to their house for the New Year." Xu Yuxiang snorted coldly, "The rumor has spread throughout the village for a long time, but you just didn't believe it. Now that they're living in a big house, do you believe it now?"
"You were so stupid as to give the house and land in the village to others. Now you have no place to live when you return to the village. You don't even know how the villagers laugh at you!" Su Xiumei had never agreed to give the house and land to Chen Guilan and her daughter.
But in order to be with Gao Meifeng sooner, Su Houli actually agreed to give it to them.
A good hand played badly!
"You called me here just to tell me this?" Su Houli was very angry. He felt that everyone was making fun of him and he was the one who was kept in the dark.
"Hou Li, your sister and I are doing this for your own good. Since you know Chen Guilan's character, you should take back the house and land." Xu Yuxiang became angry when she thought of Chen Guilan and Su Jiaojiao. "Do you know that Chen Guisheng is now farming their land? Everyone in the village says that our Su family is too cowardly."
"I understand. I'll go find her right away." Su Houli was also feeling angry, so he rode his bike to Century Garden.
He left in such a hurry that he didn't even know which building Chen Guilan lived in.
I happened to meet Chen Guichang at the gate of the community.
Chen Guichang had been delivering goods to Qimei Garment Factory for the past few months. He knew that Qimei Garment Factory was very busy, so he was very surprised to see Su Houli: "Houli, how come you have time to come here?"
"I'm looking for Chen Guilan." Su Houli said angrily, "Which building does she live in?"
"What do you want to see her for?" Chen Guichang was very curious.
"I want to ask her how she bought the house." Chen Guichang was no stranger, so Su Houli didn't hide it from him. "She has no shame, but I still have some!"
"You know everything?" Chen Guichang saw that he looked unhappy, so he consoled him, "This matter has been going on for a long time. You don't have to worry. We can solve it slowly."
"So you all knew, and I was the only one who was kept in the dark." Su Houli punched the wall and asked in a trembling voice, "Who is that man?"
"I heard he's the son of Director Qin of the Jiali Garment Factory..." Chen Guichang understood Su Houli's feelings very well and sighed, "Jiaojiao is still young, and she's a girl. You should talk to her nicely and don't get angry."
"Jiao Jiao?" Su Houli was stunned. "Didn't you say Chen Guilan..."
"Who said Guilan?" Chen Guichang was also stunned. "Director Qin's son is only about twenty years old. How could he have anything to do with Guilan? You must have made a mistake."
"Are you saying Jiaojiao bought this house because she's dating Director Qin's son?" Su Houli was confused. "Is Director Qin's son that rich?"
"That's right!" Chen Guichang told him what he knew. "He's the second son of the Jiahe Group. Even a hair he plucked is thicker than our waist. Century Jiayuan was developed by the Jiahe Group. Giving him a house is not a small thing, is it?"
"I was wondering how they could possibly afford to buy a house. So this is what's going on." Su Houli calmed down a lot when he heard it wasn't Chen Guilan. But when he learned that it was Su Jiaojiao who had bought the new house through such means, his anger flared up again. "I still have to find Chen Guilan. I want to ask her how she raised her daughter!"
"She works in the leather workshop at the door. You can go find her." Chen Guichang said and left.
When Su Houli arrived, he saw a leather workshop. He didn't expect that Chen Guilan was working there.
He angrily pushed the door open and walked in. He immediately saw Chen Guilan sitting at the chopping board cutting thread ends. He said unhappily, "Chen Guilan, come out for a moment!"
Everyone in the workshop looked up at him.
Seeing that he felt a little guilty, he simply retreated to the door and shouted inside: "I have something to talk to you about!"
"Who is it?" Ding Mei asked Chen Guilan.
Yu Ying, Chang Yuqin, and Cai Ting also craned their necks to look outside. Liu Ming also put down his work and walked over, asking Chen Guilan, "Sister Chen, who's speaking so harshly?"
"He, he is Jiaojiao's father." Chen Guilan put down the work in her hands and walked out.
