In business, harmony brings wealth. Chu Yu has always been polite to people, but Guan Huixian is ungrateful. Chu Yu can't just offer her face and let her slap her. It's one thing to be slapped, but after slapping one side, she wants to slap the other. She's so humble that it's not just cowardice, but spinelessness.
No one can be spineless in any relationship. Chu Yu had no reason to tolerate it, but she spoke calmly and politely, with a smile on her face. Her polite yet sharp words ignited Guan Huixian's powder keg.
Shulan was eager to marry into the Zhao family, but Guan Huichun looked down on Shulan's rural household registration. Shulan had to be humble and subservient to get in.
Chu Yu also came from the countryside, so why did she stand so tall and proud, without any of the timidity typical of rural people? Why did she dare to talk to her like that?
Guan Huixian's face turned red, and she went downstairs to complain to Guan Huichun.
The door creaked open, and Shulan emerged from inside, her face ashen.
Chu Yu saw through the crack in the door that the blanket on the bed was bulging, and Zhao Gan was wrapped in the blanket, not moving at all.
When his girlfriend brought her whole family to visit her family for the first time, the boyfriend just lay on the bed without moving. Calling this kind of man a piece of trash is an insult to trash!
"Sister, what are you thinking? Zhao Gan's mother didn't prepare many dishes, the kitchen was cold and deserted, it's obvious she didn't care. She looked down on you before the marriage, even if you really marry into the family, you won't get the respect you deserve. After the marriage, your in-laws will only mistreat you even more. If your husband is considerate, that's fine, but I don't think Zhao Gan can handle things. If you really marry him, and have a child, you'll be trapped in the marriage, and it won't be easy to break up. Once a woman becomes a mother, she's easily manipulated by her in-laws and husband. Rather than living that kind of life, it's better to make a decision sooner rather than later."
Two-legged toads are hard to find, but two-legged men are plentiful.
Chu Yu really didn't understand what Shu Lan was struggling with. What was so difficult about breaking up?
If Dai Donglin dared to treat her lightly, or if Dai Donglin's family dared to give her a hard time, Chu Yu would turn around and leave without saying a word.
What's there to hold onto? Marriage is about receiving love and blessings, not about being at the mercy of your in-laws, being lectured by your mother-in-law, or being bossed around by your husband.
Shulan has beautiful features, and with a little makeup, her eyebrows and eyes become exceptionally delicate and captivating. If it weren't for her poor family background, Zhao Gan wouldn't even be worthy of carrying her shoes.
After breaking up, Shulan focused on her career, made money to buy several houses and a car. Starting from Deyang, she and Chu Yu expanded to other places. What kind of man couldn't she find? Why did she have to choose a piece of trash like Zhao Gan?
Chu Yu's heartfelt words deeply moved Shu Lan. She patted Chu Yu on the shoulder and said with a wry smile:
"Thank you, Chu Yu. I went in to call Zhao Gan just now to tell him about breaking up, but he was too busy sleeping to pay any attention to me. He didn't even peek his head out from under the covers the whole time. I've figured it out, this man is a good-for-nothing. After we got married, I'm the one who has to earn money to support the family, and I still have to put up with his bad temper. My in-laws look down on me too. I'm suffering double the mistreatment, and I still have to carry on the Zhao family line. It's terrifying to even think about."
Shulan isn't entirely stupid; in any case, cutting losses in time is the best course of action.
"Sister, don't be sad. He's not good enough for you. You'll meet someone better."
"Thank you, sister. I've thought it through. Tomorrow I'll go back to the factory and tell the managers I quit! I'm not working at the factory anymore. Let them say whatever they want, I don't care!"
Shulan wanted to open a tailor shop in Deyang, together with Shu Aiguo and Deng Fangping, so that they could look after each other.
Whether you earn a lot or a little, it's always good for the family to be together.
Chu Yu was quite pleased. "After you resign, let's work together. You'll soon be able to buy a car and a house and reach the pinnacle of your life."
Buying a car and a house? Wouldn't that cost hundreds of thousands? In an era when even having ten thousand yuan was newsworthy, Chu Yu really dared to dream!
Shulan was amused by her. The breakup wasn't as painful as she had imagined. Instead, she felt relieved. The burden that had been weighing on her shoulders for so long finally dissipated. The two of them took Yunyun and Xiaojiang downstairs.
Deng Fangping and Chu Yu exchanged a glance, seemingly unsurprised.
"Mom, we're not eating this," Shulan said with a smile, staring at Guan Huichun not far away. "Just looking at those disgusting faces makes me want to vomit after just one bite!"
Guan Huichun's face turned ashen. She never expected Shulan to dare speak like that! Rebellious! Rebellious! Did Shulan still want to marry into the Zhao family? Wasn't she afraid of her?
"Who are you calling disgusting? You country folk have no manners!"
"Is this what you call being cultured? Are all cultured people as shameless and vicious as you? Who do you think you are? You always put on such a condescending face. I'm dating your son, not stealing your man. You're mentally disturbed and unhealthy, treating me like an enemy every day! You may not find it disgusting, but I do!"
Shulan spat out a harsh "Pah!"
Guan Huichun almost fainted from being scolded.
Shulan actually called her a pervert. She gave birth to her son and raised him with all her heart. Zhao Gan's father is never home. What's wrong with the mother and son having a good relationship?
Shulan's attempt to sabotage the relationship between the mother and son was wishful thinking, and Guan Huichun didn't think she was wrong.
Guan Huichun was so ashamed to be insulted to her face that she was completely embarrassed. The neighbors who had argued with her even peeked out, each with a gloating expression.
Within half a day, the words Shulan said to her would reach her workplace, Guan Huichun would be gossiped about, and Zhao Gan's marriage would become difficult.
Guan Huichun was simply unwilling to accept it.
"You're talking nonsense! Who do you think you are, daring to act so arrogantly in my house! A woman as ill-mannered as you is not worthy of being a daughter-in-law of the Zhao family. I will never allow Zhao Gan to marry you!"
"Give me a break! I've already broken up with Zhao Gan. It's not that your son doesn't want me, it's that I feel like I've dumped your son! Even if your Zhao family offers me a grand wedding with eight sedan chairs, I won't marry into this family!"
