Chapter 29: Jian Yunsang is divorced
Hu Baodun was very envious. If you told him that Chaochao had eaten egg custard in the morning, he would just grumble a few words, but he wouldn't make a fuss, after all, he ate a lot of eggs.

But at noon, when Jian Yunsang took Chaochao to the hospital cafeteria to eat a small chicken leg, Hu Baodun began to swallow his saliva.

Why? How could that bitch eat so well? She ate meat all day yesterday and she ate meat again today.

She was his child bride, shouldn't she serve him and give him all the good things? How dare she eat it all?

If he sees her again, he will beat her to death to see if she dares to do it again next time.

Zheng quickly covered his mouth with her hand and said, "Okay, my little ancestor, please speak softly so that no one outside can hear you."

Hu Lai Fu also glared at him.

They were now certain that Chao Chao's whereabouts weren't a fairyland, and she wasn't some mysterious fairy child. After all, her family had escaped so far without facing any punishment. Furthermore, she now had over two hundred taels of silver, making her even richer than before. And if she truly had the ability to predict the future, how could she not have known that Old Lady Zheng had hidden a ring? Why didn't she take that ring back as well?
It can be seen that the dead girl was just playing tricks. This sky curtain was indeed magical, and no one knew where it came from, let alone where Chaochao was.

However, this sky curtain really caused them a lot of trouble, forcing them to hide outside.

Hu Baodun hummed twice, thinking of the beating his father had given him before, and he still remembered the pain. His voice became much softer, "So when will she come back to serve me?"

Zheng rolled her eyes. "Why would she go back? She's so powerful now. She should go back to live with her parents and enjoy her life."

Hu Baodun frowned, "Didn't they say she has no parents?"

"Of course she's the one on the awning." Thinking of Jian Yunsang's appearance, Zheng felt a little jealous. They both had children, but how come this woman didn't look any older at all? Her skin was still fair and rosy. Didn't they say she'd been looking for that dead girl for two years? She didn't seem to be so haggard from missing her daughter.

Hu Baodun, "Is that the dead girl's mother on the screen? Then where is her father?"

Zheng was stunned and looked at Hu Lai Fu.

Yeah, come to think of it, that damn girl has been back for two days, and she hasn't seen her father, let alone heard the woman mention her husband. And that cloakroom, when the woman introduced it, she said one side was for the damn girl and the other side was for her, and it seemed her father's clothes weren't there.

Zheng suddenly felt a little proud. "Could this damn girl be without a father? Before she left, she said her parents loved her and wanted to go back to them, but in the end, there was only her mother, and no trace of her other relatives."

"Come to think of it, it seems her mother does live alone." Hu Laifu narrowed his eyes, somewhat puzzled, "Is her father gone?"

"Even if her father is gone, what about that dead girl's grandparents and uncles? They can't all be gone, right?" Zheng said viciously, as if she had thought of something. "I think the dead girl's mother was probably divorced and kicked out. Otherwise, why would she never even mention her husband? There was a child in Zhengjia Village who was kidnapped by a beggar. Her mother kept talking about going to find the child, which annoyed her husband's family so much that they didn't want her to have another son. In the end, her husband divorced her and kicked her out of the house. Her parents were unwilling to take her in, and she disappeared."

Zheng thought this woman was probably the same. Didn't she hear her tell the little girl that she'd been looking for her for the past two years? Who would spend two years looking for a little girl? And she even spent so much money on buying her new clothes. How could she possibly waste her husband's money like that?

"Just wait, this woman doesn't work, and she still wants to take Chao Chao to see a doctor for ear problems. She also wants to eat and use the best things. She spends money like this, and she will soon become a pauper. By then, I'm afraid this damn girl's life will be worse than when she was in our house."

Hu Lai Fu nodded, "Without her husband's family, this woman can't raise the child alone for long. When the sky curtain is raised and the mother and daughter can no longer make ends meet, everyone in the world will know that this is not the fairyland and it can't punish us. Then, when we go back, no one will dare to say anything." The couple both laughed. Yes, they just had to hold on for a while longer.

They looked up at the sky again, this time with more anticipation in their eyes.

The scene on the sky has changed, and Jian Yunsang and Chao Chao have returned home.

Originally, Jian Yunsang wanted to go to the supermarket to buy some vegetables and snacks, but ever since he heard from Dr. Liu that he had ear problems and needed treatment, he became worried about the high expenses for his family. He was not in a good mood and seemed to be worried.

Jian Yunsang didn't want to bother her, so she simply placed an order for takeout and had the fresh food delivered to her home.

But when he got home, Chaochao was still listless, looking worried from time to time, and seemed to want to say something but stopped himself several times, obviously not wanting to treat his ears.

Chaochao knew that it would cost a lot of money to go to the clinic. Many people in Shangliu Village would either pick some herbs to eat or just endure the illness and it would go away. They were unwilling to spend money on medical treatment. They would only go to the clinic if they really couldn't afford to delay, but they would try to get the medicine as cheap as possible.

They had been at the hospital for so long today, and although she hadn't seen her mother give any money, she knew it must have cost a lot. She didn't want to be a burden to her mother as soon as she got home; she wanted to be useful.

Jian Yunsang probably knew what she was thinking and couldn't help but laugh, "Chao Chao, don't worry. Ear treatment doesn't cost much, and it's not a serious problem. Besides, we have medical insurance now, which can reimburse part of it. The total cost will probably only be a few thousand yuan."

A few thousand yuan?

Chao Chao's eyes widened. "A few thousand yuan is a few thousand taels?" "But, but one tael of silver is enough to live in Shangliu Village for a year."

A few thousand taels, isn’t that a lot?
Chao Chao's head shook like a rattle instantly, "No, no, Mom is too expensive."

Jian Yunsang was stunned. "It's really not expensive. Mom has millions in her hands now. A few thousand dollars is just enough for a few meals." Well... those dishes that cost thousands of dollars per table are indeed eaten up in just a few meals.

Chaochao blinked and said, "Ah?" A few meals?

Her mind began to spin, she couldn't figure out how to convert thousands or millions.

"Mom, how much is that?"

Jian Yunsang thought for a moment and gave her a simple example. "For example, a pound of pork belly costs about 20 yuan. A thousand yuan can buy about 500 pounds of meat, and a few thousand yuan can only buy a few pigs. With the money Mom has, she can even buy a pig farm."

The ordinary people of Daqi under the sky swallowed their saliva. She was so rich...
