People used to envy and resent him, but he kept bringing it up, which made them want to punch him.
But they were just showing off, and there was nothing they could say, since they had ears to hear it.
Now that Ke Meiyu has directly confronted him, everyone has vented most of their anger, and they are all clapping, cheering, and jeering.
Che Yonggen's face flushed red. He wasn't actually that outstanding, but he was good at pretending, sowing discord, and flattering others. That's how he managed to snatch the rare worker-peasant-soldier college student spot in the factory.
At university, he was so ordinary that he was almost unnoticed. Too many outstanding and intelligent people were concentrated there, not to mention a few people with powerful backgrounds who didn't get along with him, so he couldn't make a name for himself for two years.
After graduation, he was transferred here in a dejected manner. Although the place was small, there were only a handful of other college graduates there, and Che Yonggen finally had his moment to shine!
Everyone looked up to him with admiration and respect. The leaders valued him, and he was praised everywhere. Many people introduced him to potential partners, and he could choose from a variety of women, regardless of their size!
Many daring female students even went to the workplace to secretly observe what college students in the provincial capital looked like!
He had heard from others that Ji Yanfei was ranked first in the town in terms of appearance, talent, character, family connections, and so on.
Che Yong-geun came for her, but upon seeing the stunning beauty Ke Mei-yu, he naturally shifted his focus.
Moreover, he felt that God had sent him a wife, who was perfect in every way!
In this small town, who is more worthy of her than I am?
Che Yonggen was completely unconvinced by Ke Meiyu's words. He couldn't help but chuckle, straightened his collar, and adopted the air of a cultured man: "My lady, marriage is a very serious matter. It concerns your happiness for a lifetime."
"You can't abandon reality just because this comrade is good-looking. You have to understand that life isn't a dream. Behind the sweet veil on the outside, what you see is the mundane reality of daily life."
"Getting married requires a house, romantic trips require money, and children's education and medical care are all very real issues. I can give you these things, but can he?"
"You can't give up on my happiness just because you're angry for a moment."
When did college students become so common? This woman is quite cute; she mentioned that all her brothers are in college...
Ke Meiyu and Qin Yuanjiu exchanged a glance.
“Are you crazy?” Ke Meiyu couldn’t help but roll her eyes. “My man built me a brick house. The house is only 20 or 30 square meters, with two bedrooms, a living room, a bathroom, a storage room, and so on. There are fruit trees, a swing, stone tables and chairs in the yard, and bamboo groves and flowers that bloom in all four seasons behind the house.”
"He gave it to me, but how much space can you provide for your future wife to go outside?"
Che Yonggen glared at him and panted twice. "Rural land is free, but can it compare to a house in the city? Besides, building a brick house in the countryside is unrealistic, isn't it?"
Bricks and tiles cost money; who can afford to supply them?
If she had said it was just a tiled roof, he might have been somewhat skeptical.
This woman is great in every way, except she's too vain and concerned about her image, which is why she tells so many lies!
Ke Meiyu slightly raised her chin, "I'm sorry to disappoint you, but my man can make bricks and tiles himself!"
Che Yonggen ignored her and looked at Qin Yuanjiu instead, "If you're a man, say it yourself. How can you let a woman brag about it for you?"
Qin Yuanjiu raised an eyelid and sneered, "You're a college graduate from the provincial capital, and you have such a narrow perspective? Do you think making bricks and tiles is that difficult? Do I need my wife to brag about it for me?"
“Yes,” Ji Yanfei couldn’t help but laugh and hummed, “Everyone in Huayuan Town knows that my cousin-in-law is very capable. Not only can he make bricks and tiles and help the village build houses for raising poultry and livestock, but he also managed to get the commune and the village to buy several tractors!”
“These things aren’t just something we’re making up. If you go to Huayuan Town and ask around, you’ll find out who doesn’t know my cousin-in-law’s name.”
"Moreover, my cousin's husband, several cousins, and cousins were indeed admitted to provincial capital universities through special admissions because of their good deeds. Moreover, their starting point should be higher than yours, as they all attended key universities. After graduation, they either stayed at the university or were assigned to work in the provincial capital!" Ji Yuchen shrugged and said with a smile.
His meaning was clear: the college students assigned to their small town must have attended very ordinary universities.
Aren't you showing off about going to a university in your provincial capital?
Then we'll use this to crush you too!
This really slapped Che Yonggen in the face, trampling his proudest and most cherished identity and status into the ground.
Among the crowd, there were also many people who disliked him, quietly expressing their past grievances, "What's wrong with college students? There are so many college students in the provincial capital every year, how many are like him, wanting the whole world to know! I thought he came from some very good university."
"So he's just like everyone else. Right, we were all fooled by him. How could a student from a top university come here?"
Che Yonggen is very concerned about his image, and he can't stand it at this moment.
He gripped the paper and pen in his hand, his mind reeling with anger. He glared at Ke Meiyu and the others, then gritted his teeth and said, "As the ancients said, never underestimate a young man's potential. Fortune changes every thirty years. We'll see who has the last laugh!"
"Speak," he said, flicking his sleeve and clinging to his last shred of self-respect, as he staggered away amidst the laughter of the crowd.
However, no one noticed that Ke Meiyu flicked her fingertips and sent a locator to him.
