From Zhang Wenying, Zhang Ju finally understood a truth: a woman's life is one of happiness if she marries the right person, and one of suffering for the rest of her life if she marries the wrong person.

Moreover, the attitudes of men who are dating and men who are married will change dramatically.

Just like before the wedding, Li Laoda wished he could pluck the stars from the sky for her, saying all sorts of nice things, like "I will only love you in this life" and "I will never let you suffer the slightest grievance".

But what about after they got married? Boss Li wouldn't even bother to ask her a single question when she was sick, let alone mention the stars and the moon.

Li Xiaojuan nodded in agreement.

Yes, the South Korean military simply doesn't respect her.

If he truly respected her, how could he possibly give up his marital home to his widowed sister-in-law?

How could they let her serve that whole family like a nanny?

Why would they let her live in such a cramped cubicle that she can't even turn over?

The more she thought about it, the colder she felt. All those years she had swallowed her anger and humiliation, all she got in return was the Han family's taking it for granted.

Zhang Wenying looked at her daughter and Zhang Ju, who were deep in thought, smiled, and turned to leave.

Some things, especially those related to marriage, can't be resolved without the advice of others; you have to figure them out yourself.

After leaving, Zhang Wenying deposited most of her money into the bank.

Bank interest rates are high now; a five-year fixed deposit now requires more than 7% interest.

Around 1998, the interest rate for a five-year fixed deposit was as high as over ten percent.

She now has more than 20,000 yuan in hand, which is a considerable amount of savings in this day and age.

Zhang Ju has already left.

She needed to go back to prepare ingredients for the next day.

Since there is money to be made, one must have a conscience in doing business and not cut corners just because business is good.

Not long after Zhang Ju left, Wang Dazui came looking for Zhang Wenying.

"Wenying, I have something to tell you."

Wang Da lowered his voice and leaned closer mysteriously.

"I heard that the wife of that boss Wang across the street came out."

"Are you out yet?"

She doesn't know.

Ever since she sent the proprietress to jail, the noodle shop across the street has been opening and closing intermittently, and its business has been declining day by day.

"That's right." Wang Da slapped his thigh, his eyes gleaming with excitement.

"I heard that woman lost a lot of weight inside, and when she came out, she wanted to divorce Boss Wang."

Wang Dazui loves to gossip about the everyday lives of people in the city. She can find out immediately which husband has cheated on his wife or which wife has run away, and then embellish the story and spread it throughout half the city.

"You don't know, Boss Wang is the uncle of the grand-nephew of the second son of my father-in-law's third paternal uncle. So, my husband's family and their family are actually related."

I heard that when the woman came out, Boss Wang didn't even go to pick her up; it was her brother from her maternal family who went to meet her.

When she got home, she found Boss Wang flirting with her sister-in-law, with Boss Wang's hand on her buttocks, the two of them being unusually affectionate.

"Is that so?"

Zhang Wenying raised an eyebrow, not because she was surprised by Boss Wang's character, but because she felt that Boss Wang was too unscrupulous.

His own wife had just gone in, and he couldn't wait to hook up with his brother's wife. Isn't that shameful?

"How could this be fake?"

That day I felt this area was too quiet, so I just took a casual walk around the neighborhood, and unexpectedly I bumped into him.

Boss Wang's wife was no pushover either; she immediately overturned the table and pointed at Boss Wang's nose, cursing him for being shameless.

Boss Wang kept making excuses, saying that he was still half asleep and went to the outhouse but entered the wrong room.

Wrong door? Who would believe that?

The three Wang brothers live in a small courtyard. It's not like they live in a palace. How could they possibly go to the wrong door?

He took advantage of his younger brother's wife while his younger brother was away.

His sister-in-law wasn't a good person either; she was seen hugging and kissing her brother-in-law in broad daylight. She wasn't exactly respectable.

"And then what happened?"

Zhang Wenying poured Wang Dazui a glass of water and gestured for her to sit down and talk slowly.

Wang Dazui took the water glass, gulped down a big mouthful, and continued, "That woman was also a tough one; she took her two children and went back to her parents' home that very day."

I don't think Mr. Wang will be able to resolve this peacefully.

Recalling the rumors about Boss Wang and his sister-in-law, Wang Da Zui Ba rubbed his arm in disgust.

"People over there say that Boss Wang is a lecherous old man."

Every day when I brush my teeth outside, my eyes are always fixed on the young women and wives passing by.

Sometimes he would deliberately spray water on someone's skirt, then feign an apology and take the opportunity to grope them.

"Why doesn't this kind of person ever get punished by God?"

Zhang Wenying shook her head and put her teacup on the table: "This kind of person will eventually fall from grace."

"Retribution may be delayed, but it will come."

This news must be known to everyone she knows...

Zhang Wenying has decided to move.

The houses in Wenshu Lane are big and spacious, and comfortable to live in.

Living in this old house, I would run into Li Jianguo and his group from time to time. It was always unpleasant to see them so often.

That's my own house. Even if my children know, what can they do?

When the land is demolished in the future, no one will be able to take a single penny from her.

Zhang Wenying was a decisive person. Once she made up her mind, she locked the door the next day, rode her tricycle, and took all her and her mother-in-law's clothes to their new house in Wenshu Lane.

As for the bedding and such, Zhang Wenying didn't touch it.

The new house has everything.

Seeing Zhang Wenying move her clothes away, Li Jianguo felt a sense of emptiness in his heart.

Is this woman leaving?

He felt inexplicably uneasy if he never saw her again.

Li Jianguo was distraught and had no appetite for dinner. He sat alone on the doorstep, staring blankly in the direction Zhang Wenying had left.

Li Wenhai walked over and waved his hand in front of him: "Dad, what's wrong with you? Have you been bewitched?"

Li Jianguo snapped out of his daze and glared at his son: "What nonsense are you talking about?"

"What are you thinking about? You're not eating or drinking, just sitting here like a door god."

"I wasn't thinking about anything."

Li Jianguo said he wasn't thinking about anything, but his brows were furrowed, and he looked preoccupied.

"Dad, what's wrong?"

"Could it be that your ink bottle factory is going bankrupt?"

Recently, some small factories in counties and towns have begun to close down.

Many people are saying that maybe one day even large state-owned factories will not be able to hold on.

Li Jianguo sighed and said irritably, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

"Our factory is doing just fine, don't listen to that nonsense." Li Wenhai pursed his lips and didn't ask any more questions.

"Dad, what are you so worried about? Mom doesn't want you anymore. If you want to find a partner, your two brothers and I won't stop you."

Upon hearing this, Li Jianguo's face flushed red. He stood up abruptly, dusted off his backside, and said, "You little rascal, what nonsense are you spouting!"

I've never thought about finding another woman in my life.
