’Her husband is so useless.’
’He can’t make any money, and he can’t even get full work points. In the whole brigade, so many people get full work points. Why can’t he?’
’It’s all my fault. Why did I have to choose such a useless man?’
The more Chen Shulan thought about it, the more she felt that what Gu Jiaojiao said made sense.
’But wasn’t she here to cause trouble for Gu Jiaojiao?’
How could she be agreeing with Gu Jiaojiao? Chen Shulan immediately tried to object.
"No."
"It’s not like that."
Gu Jiaojiao snapped vegetables from their stems while chatting with Chen Shulan. "How is it not?"
"If your husband were more capable, would you be this envious of me? Would you still feel so resentful?"
"They say you marry a man to be clothed and fed. If your food and clothes aren’t as good as others’, isn’t that your husband’s fault?"
"You should have been living a better life. It’s such a shame."
Gu Jiaojiao’s words struck a chord with Chen Shulan. At that moment, only one thought filled her mind.
The terrible life she was living now was all her husband’s fault.
She forgot all about causing trouble for Gu Jiaojiao and turned to head back home.
She was going to go back and settle the score with that good-for-nothing husband of hers.
Having finished her task, Gu Jiaojiao watched Chen Shulan leave and let out a soft laugh.
’It wasn’t that her words were so convincing that Chen Shulan believed them. It was because, deep down, that was what Chen Shulan already thought.’
Chen Shulan was the type who loved to compare herself to others, but she hadn’t been favored in her own family. Back then, her family had demanded a high bride price, and only Lin Jiandong was willing to pay it. That was how she ended up marrying him.
