"You bitch! How dare you investigate me!" Luo Bo yelled.

"What's wrong with me investigating you? If you behave properly and haven't done anything to let me or your family down, why should you be afraid of me investigating you?" Jiang Xiaomei also shouted.

"I work so hard every day to earn money to support you and the kids. What have I done to let you down? Don't forget that I'm the one who raised you! What you eat is mine, what you drink is mine, what you use is mine, and everything you wear is all paid for with my money! How could I let you down? Can you just look for trouble here when you have nothing to do all day long?!"

"Yes, you raised me, so you raised me! You raised a child, so you raised him! You raised us, so we two would be sorry for you, right? Then what about the women outside you raised? Do you think the women outside are sorry for you?"

"What nonsense is Jiang Xiaomei talking about?!" Luo Bo panicked when he heard Jiang Xiaomei shouting like that.

Jiang Xiaomei burst into laughter.

"What? Are you scared? I'm telling you the truth and you're scared, right? Don't think I don't know what you're doing outside. If you don't want to support your family, then don't get married and have children. I've never seen a man like you who is so fussy about supporting a family and raising children!

What are you doing? Do you still want to hit me? Are you feeling guilty? You said so well before. When you came to my house to propose marriage, you told my parents that you raised me. Now it has become that you raised me. How did you become like this? Do you dare to admit it? ! If you didn’t have another woman outside, would you treat me like this? "

"Jiang Xiaomei! Shut up! You're acting like a shrew now!"

"My mouth is on my body, how can you control whether I shut up or not? You can't even control your own life, and you still want to control me! I'm a slut? Who forced me to be a slut? Luo Bo, I was really wrong. I was wrong to believe you and be your good wife!

You keep saying that you raised me, but over the years I have honored my parents-in-law and helped you keep your home in order, so that you don’t have to worry about going outside. Isn’t this my credit? If it weren't for me, you would be distracted by the trivial matters at home, and you could still make money outside with peace of mind! ?

"What? You still want to hit me in front of so many people? Come on, am I afraid of you? Come on and hit me! I want to see which is stronger, your fist or the kitchen knife in my hand!" Jiang Xiaomei shouted at the top of her voice.

Shen Huanxi was worried about Jiang Xiaomei. When she heard that she had a kitchen knife in her hand, she didn't know whether she should feel more relieved or more worried.

The reassuring thing is that Jiang Xiaomei has a weapon in her hand, so she is not afraid that Luo Bo will beat her to death like he did last time.

What I am worried about is that if Jiang Xiaomei really hurt Luo Bo with a kitchen knife in a fit of impulse, then Jiang Xiaomei would also have to take responsibility.

She tried to squeeze in, but was stopped several times by onlookers.

Several women also went up to persuade Jiang Xiaomei.

"Xiaomei, calm down. The kitchen knife you picked up is no small matter. If someone is really hurt, Chenchen will be left without a father in the future."

"Yes, Xiaomei, don't be impulsive. Everything needs to be discussed first, right? Put the dishes down first."

…

"Shut up, all of you!" Jiang Xiaomei interrupted the group of women.

"The last time Robo beat me, you were watching. Why weren't you afraid that Robo would hurt me? Now you're afraid that I would hurt Robo! We're both women, but in your eyes women are worthless and men are valuable, right? Shut up!"

"Jiang Xiaomei, why are you so ignorant? We are doing this for your own good..." a woman shouted.

When Luo Bo saw that someone was helping him, he felt more confident.

"She just doesn't know what's good for her! She's crazy! How can she behave like a woman? How can a woman point a kitchen knife at her man like this! I've never seen such an unruly woman!"

"If I point a kitchen knife at you, I am unruly, but if you hit me, I am disciplined, right? This world is a man's world, everything is for men, and women deserve to suffer, right?"

"Jiang Xiaomei you!"

"What do you mean, Luo Bo? Do you want to punish me? Come on, hit me. I have evidence in my hand that you cheated on me during your marriage! Come on, hit me. If you hit me, it means you are guilty! I have photos in my hand. I can hand them over to the police at any time and sue you for hooliganism!" Jiang Xiaomei held the kitchen knife, refusing to give in.

When Luo Bo heard her say that she had photos, he suddenly panicked.

"I don't want to bother with you all that much. Family disgrace should not be made public. Do you have to come out here to make trouble? I won't make trouble with you. I'm too embarrassed. I'm going home!" Luo Bo said this guiltily, and then he pushed away the crowd and fled in panic.

Shen Huanxi pushed the bicycle through a puddle with a "swish" sound, and the dirty water splashed onto Luo Bo who happened to run over.

"Hey, Luo Bo, why is it you? Why are you walking so carelessly? You must be more careful when you go out in the future and wear glasses. You almost scared me. Fortunately, I didn't bother with you. If someone else saw you being so reckless, they would definitely be angry with you." Shen Huanxi took the initiative and said deliberately.

Luo Bo was splashed with water. After hearing what Shen Huanxi said, he didn't know what to say. He snorted coldly and ran away.

Jiang Xiaomei was so fierce just now, and she looked like a shrew when she pointed the kitchen knife at Luo Bo. But after Luo Bo left, she was like a deflated ball. It seemed that the quarrel with Luo Bo just now had consumed a lot of her energy.

The women who had just tried to persuade the quarrel surrounded Jiang Xiaomei and tried to persuade her.

"A husband and wife are bound by love for a hundred days. You two have been married for so many years and your child is already in elementary school. There is no need to make such a scene. How can a woman be so disrespectful to her man?"

"Yes, Xiaomei, if you keep making trouble like this, what if Luo Bo divorces you? Then you will be left without a man."

"Husbands and wives should give in if they can. There is no man who doesn't cheat. Luo Bo just made a mistake that millions of men would make. If you turn a blind eye to it, won't he be more obedient in a few years when he's older?"

"You really can't hold your temper. If you really get divorced and leave your man, life will be miserable. Can't you just be patient?"

…

Several women surrounded Jiang Xiaomei and tried to persuade her. They thought they were doing it for her own good, but the more Jiang Xiaomei listened to them, the angrier she became.

She even stood up in anger.

"You can't live without a man? What bullshit are you talking about! Aunt Yang, I don't see how good your life is with your man. A while ago, you had a fever of 38 or 39 degrees, and you had to boil water for your man to wash his feet. Do you think that's good?

Mrs. Zhu, you are not divorced. You and your man are locked up. When you were pregnant, even if you wanted to eat one more mouthful of vegetables, you would be beaten by your husband. Is this what you mean by having a man?

Sister Wu Zhao, you give your man face. Your man lost all his family property gambling outside, leaving you and your daughter to live in a pigsty for several winters. This is really good!

Jiejie's mother, your husband was having affairs with other women outside, and he got sick and passed it on to you. Are you still taking medicine to treat your illness? Is this the reward you get for turning a blind eye?

..." Jiang Xiaomei held a kitchen knife, but she was not polite at all, and fought back against these women one by one.

After hearing what she said, these women blushed with anger. Some women who were not mentioned by her ran away in a hurry, fearing that their family scandals would be exposed.

The woman she had just mentioned was too embarrassed to stay any longer and followed her.

After a short while, all the people who had been gathering in three layers inside and three layers outside to watch the excitement left. Only Jiang Xiaomei was left, sitting on the side of the road like a deflated ball, holding a kitchen knife and looking as pale as death.

Shen Huanxi parked his bike and walked over, handing Jiang Xiaomei a bottle of soda, which she had originally intended to buy for the children.

When Jiang Xiaomei saw Shen Huanxi, a hint of life finally appeared on her originally lifeless face.

"Happy, you're here."

"Well, have a drink first. This is my child's favorite orange soda. It tastes pretty good."

"Okay." Jiang Xiaomei didn't hesitate to open the soda bottle and took two sips. She was also thirsty.

"I just arrived and heard you and Luo Bo arguing. Did he find out about your investigation into him?" Shen Huanxi asked.

Jiang Xiaomei sighed and nodded.

"I don't know how he has so many connections and knows so many people. I found a private detective, but it turned out that the private detective's informant knew Robo, so he informed Robo. Robo came back and wanted to beat me up. Fortunately, I was prepared and had a kitchen knife in my hand at all times, so he couldn't hurt me."

"You'd better be careful and don't hurt yourself." Shen Huanxi was a little worried. "Did you find out anything? Did you find the woman? Did you find the evidence?"

Jiang Xiaomei sighed again.

"No, I was just trying to scare him. If I had found evidence, I wouldn't have been so passive. Now I don't know what to do. I don't know how to find evidence. He knows everyone... and he already knows that I'm investigating him, so he will definitely be more alert. I'm afraid I won't be able to find anything..."

"It's okay, it's okay, take your time." Shen Huanxi patted Jiang Xiaomei's shoulder to comfort her, "What are your plans now? Are you going to get a divorce?"

"No!" Jiang Xiaomei answered firmly.

"Why should I get a divorce? If I get a divorce now, wouldn't that just benefit him and that woman outside? I have to find evidence no matter what. I will get a divorce only when I get a larger share of the family property! I will also spend money desperately, spend money vigorously! I will not save money for him anymore. Why? The woman outside has spent so much of his money, why shouldn't I spend it? I will spend money, the more the better! Why should I get a divorce from him so early? If I divorce him, I can at most get a share of the family property. How can I spend more money? I won't get a divorce!"

"Okay, let's calm down first, calm down." Shen Huanxi also saw that Jiang Xiaomei was getting angrier and angrier, and her voice was getting louder and louder. He was afraid that she would hurt herself out of anger, so he patted her on the back to comfort her.

Jiang Xiaomei nodded and calmed down, looking at Shen Huanxi with gratitude.

"Huanxi, I really have to thank you. If you hadn't told me that there might be something wrong with Luo Bo and asked me to check, I wouldn't have realized that he had someone outside. I can't find any evidence for now, but seeing his attitude, I'm sure that he must have someone outside. Thank you very much.

To be honest, he beat me so many times before and I was hurt so much that I had thought about divorcing him a long time ago. If I divorced him like this, I would be in big trouble. I must find evidence that he cheated on me!"

"Well, what about your previous savings?" Shen Huanxi.

Jiang Xiaomei laughed.

"I've taken care of it all. I used all the money to buy gold and locked it in my mother's house. My parents helped me keep an eye on it. I didn't put it in a passbook, so Luo Bo couldn't find it even if he wanted to.

Isn't that ironic? Rob is very rich, but he doesn't even know how much he has given me over the years. He believed me when I told him that I had spent all my money. You can imagine how much money he has spent on women outside.

But it's better this way, it's best if he doesn't find out, the gold will be my lifelong possession, it's better than him knowing I have money and taking it away when I divorce. Anyway, I won't divorce him now, I still need to find evidence to divide the property! I will divorce after I divide the property!"

"Yeah!" Shen Huanxi nodded heavily.

Jiang Xiaomei was right to have this idea. As long as she had the idea of ​​fighting for the family property and had saved up wealth for herself for half her life, she would not have been forced to commit suicide like in her previous life.

"What about Chenchen?" Shen Huanxi was still worried about this problem.

After all, in the previous life, it was Luo Chenchen who committed suicide first, and Jiang Xiaomei committed suicide because her life had completely lost hope.

In fact, now that she saw that Jiang Xiaomei had already made plans for her future, she didn't have to worry so much.

The reason why Jiang Xiaomei beat Chenchen in her previous life was because she was poor and had a hard life. She was under too much pressure and acted impulsively.

Now that she has prepared a way out for herself, she won't be as poor as in her previous life. She probably won't hit Chenchen because of too much pressure.

But Shen Huanxi still wanted to ask, for she was afraid that Jiang Xiaomei would be angry with Chenchen because of Luo Bo's cheating and would ignore Chenchen.

"I will definitely keep Chenchen by my side, no matter whether Luo Bo and I get divorced or not, and no matter when we get divorced, I will keep him by my side. Who knows if Luo Bo has a child with that woman outside? What if he does, and he treats the illegitimate child very well? So I will also try my best to spend money on Chenchen! I will spend Luo Bo's money!

If one day I really find evidence of Luo Bo's cheating and divorce Luo Bo, I will also keep Chen Chen by my side. Isn't it said that if there is a stepmother, there must be a stepfather? Not everyone is as good as your man. I don't believe in Luo Bo's character. I will definitely keep Chen Chen by my side and take care of him. "

"That's true. You have saved so much gold now. No matter how much of the family property you can take when you divorce, at least you and Chenchen will be guaranteed a secure life in the future." Shen Huanxi said after he breathed a sigh of relief for Chenchen.

"Yeah." Jiang Xiaomei nodded. "By the way, how about the money for Xiao Shanhe's treatment? Have you thought of a way? Have you managed to get it? Don't you really want to borrow money from me? I'll go back to my parents' home and get you some gold. How about you just sell it and use it to pay for his treatment?"

"No need, Xiaomei. The gold is the guarantee of your and Chenchen's future life. Now that you and Luo Bo have made such a fuss, you have to worry about finding evidence. How can I take your money? You are tired today, too. Why don't you go home and rest first? Oh, no, is it dangerous for you to go home now? Will Luo Bo hurt you? Do you want to take Chenchen back to your parents' home?" Shen Huanxi was worried again.

Jiang Xiaomei shook her head.

"You don't have to go back to your parents' house. I'll stay at my house. I'll always have a kitchen knife with me. And I've changed the lock of our house. Rob doesn't have a key, so he can't come back. He doesn't dare to go home and provoke me at this time. Maybe he's still with that woman outside. That's perfect. Anyway, you don't have to worry about me. I can handle it myself. I'm not stupid."

"Okay, but if you need any help, you can come to me anytime. There's not much to do at the Sanbei Command right now, so if you want to see me, come to my house. If I'm not at home, you can find me at No. 417 Taiping Street. When I'm not at home, I'm usually watching over the store."

"Okay, then I'll go back first." Jiang Xiaomei stood up with the kitchen knife and walked back home.

Many women in Guixiang Village showed sympathy when they saw her look, and they all talked about it privately, thinking that she was quite pitiful.

But many of them don't know that Jiang Xiaomei feels sorry for them. Many of them are married to a penniless, uncaring man, and are in a widowed marriage. What qualifications do they have to sympathize with her, a woman who has already accumulated a large sum of gold and is working hard for a better life?

Shen Huanxi also heard the women's discussions, but she didn't say anything. Women of this era regard their men as the sky and the earth, so it can only be said that people with different ideas cannot work together.

She just felt that it was worthwhile for her to remind Jiang Xiaomei.

…

The weather is getting colder and colder, and the Shanbei Command is finally going to have its winter break. Some of Shen Huanxi's colleagues go home to help with their livelihoods, while others take a good rest when they have free time.

People from the Publicity Department would come to Shen Huanxi's store whenever they had time.

Shen Huanxi originally planned to hire two employees when she had free time. However, she found that she didn't need any other employees when she had free time. She could handle the stamp business in the store by herself and could also bring her colleagues with her.

Colleagues from the Publicity Department followed her to make stamps, and each of them made some money. Many of the lucky ones earned several months' salary in less than a week.

"I didn't expect that I could make so much money by making stamps with Xiao Shen. I don't even want to go back to work. I only invested 30 yuan, and now I have made nearly 300 yuan," said Dong Zhenxiong.

Shen Huanxi shook his head quickly.

"Brother Dong, didn't you lose money once when you were a Peking Opera Hua Dan? You bought it back at 15 times the price, but later the price of Peking Opera Hua Dan dropped. You were eager to cash out so you sold it at 13 times the price. You lost a lot of money that time.

There are ups and downs in the stamp business, and there are risks involved. You can't stop working just because you make money. Although we make little money in the Sanbei Command, at least we have a guaranteed income, right?" Shen Huanxi said.

She hopes that these young people who are contributing to the green mountains and clear waters of their motherland can live a better life, but she does not want to cheat them and make them lose their stable jobs.

After hearing what Shen Huanxi said, Dong Zhenxiong smiled and nodded.

"I'm not kidding, Xiao Shen. Didn't we agree when we took our oath of office that we would fight the wind and sand to the end? How could I give up our common goal and belief for this money?"

The others nodded after hearing what Dong Zhenxiong said.

"Yes, we agreed to fight the wind and sand to the end. But if someone leaves one day, like Yue Danqing, I can understand. After all, it's really hard for us to fight against wind and sand." Shen Huanxi sighed.

The Three Norths Project is really difficult to carry out. The previous generations planted trees and the next generations will enjoy the benefits. They themselves may not be able to see the results of what they are doing. It may even take several decades before they can see the results of their hard work. This is their difficulty, but also their greatness.

"There's no need to say too much. Since this is our choice, we should of course go for it. As for the business of making stamps, everyone really needs to be careful. Nowadays, there are many people in big cities who have lost their fortunes and cannot make back their money because of making stamps. We make stamps just to supplement our family income and we don't plan to make a lot of money. There is no need to take such a big risk and do such a big order. We can just make a little money, right?" Shen Huanxi said again.

In fact, the situation of losing all the money in stamp business would only happen when the stamp market collapsed, at least not in the next few years, but she had to remind her colleagues in advance.

When everyone heard her say this, they were indeed a little scared.

"Stamps do have ups and downs, so we'd better be careful and do small things instead of big ones," said Li Shaohua.

Dong Zhenhua and the others laughed.

"I am already very satisfied with earning a few hundred dollars now. One should be content with what he has. I will not expand any further."

"Yes, people are never satisfied, so we should not be so greedy. Didn't Xiao Shen say that there are many people who are engaged in the stamp business full-time, but those who do it full-time have their losses, not to mention those of us who do it in our spare time, so we still have to be cautious."

…

Shen Huanxi felt relieved when he heard them say this.

However, her colleagues felt that the money they made from stamp sales was already a lot, but it was still too little for her.

At this time in her previous life, the money she earned from processing raw coal was ten times more than what she earned from making stamps now. If she wanted to help Xiao Shanhe cure his legs, making stamps alone would not be enough.

What's more, to be able to make stamps, all you need is a keen sense of smell and the ability to observe the market; no technical skills are required at all.

Even though she was the first to engage in stamp recycling and reselling and occupied the market first, she could not stop others from following her example. Now, less than half a month after she started the business, people have already started to follow her example. In the 1980s and 1990s when the stamp market was very active, there were all kinds of ways to speculate on stamps, and nothing she could think of was unusual, so Shen Huanxi wanted to change her line of work.

On the way home that day, she thought about what to do next.
