Chapter 88: 88

Chapter 88 – ‘Deep affections’ between siblings (1)

Because Xu Bilian had a child in her belly, hence Gu Ye was in the upper hand position. Otherwise, He Jihong would definitely ask for more, the house and the shop would also be divided.

She had inquired about it a long time ago, that the properties of Gu Ye’s waigong had been returned. It was a large sum of fortune, which originally belonged to her daughter’s, but now it wasn’t. She didn’t know which woman would get it in the future, what a fortunate woman! 

Thinking of this, it pained He Jihong’s heart. After all, she had tried her best to arrange this marriage… Where exactly were the good points of Gu Jianshe? Why did Bilian become so obsessed with him?

“”I know.”

Xu Bilian replied casually, and was a little impatient. She had heard her mother’s nags all night yesterday. Her mother also didn’t even think about it thoroughly, how could it be possible for her to talk to Gu Ye, as if he had been accommodating or had a good temper.

And after all, it was also her fault, she was the one who did the wrong things. So she didn’t have the face to ask for the jewelry. 

“Please take it seriously. You are still young and ignorant, you are not aware enough about the benefits of money. Can love be eaten? You have to be more realistic. You can have a good life only if you have money. Men are the spice of life, and money is the main dish, the most important thing in life. Three meals a day are indispensable.”

When He Jihong saw her daughter like this, she knew that her daughter didn’t listen to her. She was not angry and didn’t think too much about what she just said. The main reason was because Chu Yuanzhi’s status at home was too low. In He Jihong’s heart, Chu Yuanzhi was indeed just a little more important than spice. 

Chu Yuanzhi was somewhat unable to hold his face. He smiled embarrassingly while looking left and right again.

Chu Qiao was eating Shumai with relish, while Chu Peng was eating fried dough sticks expressionlessly. His heart became relieved with that, fortunately the children did not hear it. 

 

-Shumai / Siomai (a type of traditional Chinese dumpling).

In fact, they heard it all, but Chu Peng’s neck was uncomfortable and he was too lazy to listen to this nonsense.

As for Chu Qiao, she thought that He Jihong’s words were very standard. Money was indeed more important than men. In this life, she had to earn a lot of money. As for the men, just let them move aside!

“Well then, I think it will be better for me to accompany you to the Civil Affairs Bureau.”

He Jihong decided to ask for a half-day leave and personally accompany her daughter to go through the divorce process. Looking at her face as an elder, Gu Ye should give her some benefits, right? 

“Aiyaahh, aren’t you so annoying? Is it you who is getting a divorce or me who is getting the divorce? Money, money, money, you only know money. Gu Ye has so many photos in his hand. If you really annoys him, and he publishes all of the photos? Do you think our He family still has the face? Mom, why don’t you think about it with your head first?” 

Xu Bilian yelled impatiently. What she said made He Jihong’s head hurt even more. She sat in a chair for a while, her face was so pale which was really scary.

Chu Yuanzhi took a xiaolongbao and fed it to her. “It’s hypoglycemia1, you didn’t eat much last night. Don’t be angry anymore, Bilian already knew what she had to do.” 

 

-Xiao Long Bao

1Hypoglycemia : also called low blood sugar. It is a condition in which your blood sugar (glucose) level is lower than the standard range. Glucose is your body’s main energy source. [Mayoclinic.org]

After eating xiaolongbao, He Jihong felt a little better. She leaned against the chair weakly and felt very uncomfortable. Her daughter didn’t appreciate her concern at all, and even said those words to anger her. How did she raise her daughter to be so unfilial like this ahh! 

But if she didn’t care, her daughter would suffer in the future, and she couldn’t bear it. It must be because she owed this vile spawn2 in the previous life, so that this unfilial daughter was here to torment her in this life. 

2Vile spawn : it is used to scold juniors. Means bad things born for sins committed in previous lives. 

After all, Xu Bilian was still feeling a little guilty. Seeing He Jihong was so angry, she murmured: “If you are not in good health, then you just have to stay and rest at home. Why do you want to go out in such a blazing sun? Just a few pieces of jewelry can’t last for a lifetime, so what’s the use for us to take it?” 

He Jihong was out of breath for a while, and she began to feel dizzy again. This stupid daughter didn’t know how valuable those jewelry were.

She had seen Zhu Yuzhen wearing a jade necklace with her own eyes. The jade was so green, transparent and bright. The compound had people who understand the jewelry, and he said that the price of this piece of jade before the liberation could even buy a foreign-style house in a good location. 

Good things were treasures no matter how many years they had passed. If her daughter had a few pieces of precious jewelry by her side, then her life would also definitely be guaranteed in the future. He Jihong’s plan was very good, but it was a pity that she ran into a foolish teammate.
