“Don’t say I didn’t give you a chance. Yes, it’s hard for me to be a stepmother. I have done my best, but it was not appreciated. My good intentions were considered as very malicious intentions. I really owe you father and daughter in my last life.”
He Jihong was very proud. Chu Yuanzhi was obedient in front of her. She was satisfied with everything about this man except for his incompetence. It’s alright even if he was incompetent, because He Jihong’s father has capabilities and was in good health. He could still live for decades. With her father here, she would definitely not have a hard life.
Moreover, if Chu Yuanzhi had the ability, he would definitely not be so obedient. It would be better like now, just let him completely in her control. If she wanted a round, it would be a round, and if she wanted a flat, it would be flat.
Chu Yuanzhi did not dare to mention the hukou anymore. So he diligently massaged He Jihong’s shoulders and backs. As for his daughter Chu Qiao, he already did his best. He did not dare to offend He Jihong.
His work was arranged by the He family. It was easy and comfortable, his salary was also not low. If it wasn’t for the He family to take care of him, how could Chu Yuanzhi live such a relaxed and comfortable life? Chu Yuanzhi was frightened by those years. So he just wanted to live a peaceful and stable life now. He could not manage other things, and he didn’t have that ability to manage them.
In the family courtyard of Xingda Machine Factory, Tang Weiguo found Gu Ye and bought some fruits. Tang Weiguo’s waigong and Old Mr. Gu were sworn-brothers. They both lived in the courtyard. Tang Weiguo lived in the courtyard when he was young and often followed behind the King of the children, Gu Ye. Although the two of them were in different generations, they were getting along well like brothers.
Gu Ye was cooking clumsily. He cooked the noodles with water, added a few eggs, it looked pretty good. But Zhou Dabao and his younger brother had no appetite, because they had been eating this egg noodles for half a month.
“Uncle Ye, are you only eating this?”
Tang Weiguo looked sympathetically. Uncle Gu, who was once invincible in the courtyard, actually had things that he couldn’t do. Just looking at these cooked noodles, even dogs wouldn’t eat them.
“There are white noodles and eggs. What’s wrong?”
Gu Ye rolled his eyes angrily, then he glared at those sullen kids again, and shouted, “Eat quickly. Dabao, after you finish eating, go wash the bowls.”
“Oh!”

Zhou Dabao answered, and poked his younger brother who was next to him, signaling him to eat quickly. It was very hard for Uncle Gu to take care of them. So even if they had to eat egg noodles everyday, it would be fine. They were not qualified to be delicate.
Tang Weiguo smiled, and put the fruit on the table. He also bought a big watermelon. His father opened a dance hall and a trading company. His business was booming. His monthly allowance was higher than He Jihong’s salary. He was very well off.
“Uncle Ye, why haven’t you divorced yet?”
Tang Weiguo asked as soon as he sat down. When Gu Ye and Xu Bilian got married, he felt that it was inappropriate. That woman, Xu Bilian, even looked down on her brother Chu Peng. She even hooked up with Gu Jianshe, that bastard. As expected, after getting married, she was restless. She gave Uncle Ye a big green hat1, which was as big as a Solar system.
1Green hat / wearing a green hat : in Chinese culture, it signifies that a man’s wife or girlfriend has cheated on him. The story behind this goes back to the Yuan dynasty when a decree stated that the family members of prostitutes had to wear green hats to distinguish themselves from the crowd.
His wise and powerful Uncle Ye had turned into a green-haired turtle2.
2Green-haired turtle: a coward or sexually incompetent man, often implying that his wife has been cheating on him.
“It will be soon, what are you doing here?”
Gu Ye slurped a big mouthful of egg noodles, and ate it with relish, as if he was eating delicacies from the mountains and seas3.
3Delicacies from mountains and seas : exotic delicacies, rare luxury delicious food from all over the world.
Tang Weiguo’s eyes lit up, and he asked excitedly, “Are you really going to get a divorce?”
He looked so happy, as if it was him who was going to divorce.
“En, I will get divorce in a few days.”
Gu Ye had already started the procedure. It was not difficult to do it. That cheating couple was very daring. They dared to mess around in broad daylight. He had taken many photos of evidence and he could get divorce any time. But he wanted to get some benefits.
