80s Wife Is Sweet and Sassy

Chapter 142 – It’s like raising a daughter (1)

He Jihong looked at the back of her meek husband who just left, feeling shocked and flustered. Chu Yuanzhi had never dared to do this before. Today, he not only retorted her, but also dared to slam the door.

The sky has turned upside down! 

“Xiao Peng, you look at your father. He’s going to rebel!” 

He Jihong’s tone was aggrieved and her body trembled uncontrollably. She had worked so hard for this family wholeheartedly, but both Chu Yuanzhi father and daughter only knew how to create trouble, which really pissed her to death. 

Chu Peng frowned impatiently and said in a cold voice, “If you can’t stand it, then get a divorce. There’s no point in arguing and fighting every day.” 

“Xiao Peng, how can you say something like that?”

He Jihong looked at her son in disbelief, he didn’t say any comforting words but a heartbreaking comment, her son was too cold-hearted. 

“Then what do you want to hear? Do you want me to scold my dad?” 

Chu Peng sneered, and went back to his own room. He was very upset. They always quarreling and fighting every day, might as well get a divorce. But he knew that He Jihong would not get a divorce. 

What Chu Qiao said before was right. After getting a divorce, it was easy for his father to marry another woman. After all, he was really good-looking. But, it would be very difficult for his mother to marry again. 

He really couldn’t understand, since his mother couldn’t leave his father, so why couldn’t she restrain her temper a bit? 

Why couldn’t she just treat Chu Qiao better?

Chu Peng rubbed his hair in annoyance, and stuffed cotton balls in his ears. He took a deep breath, and began to read a book. There was still a year left until the college entrance examination. He would definitely be able to enter the university. It would be good to leave this house, he was already tired of it. 

He Jihong stood alone in the living room, and she was suddenly struck with sadness. No one in this family understood her painstaking efforts. Her daughter blamed her, her son was cold-hearted, her husband had other options beside her, and that little bitch Chu Qiao was even more black-hearted. 

He Jihong’s eyes became dark and cold. This little bitch, don’t even think to escape from her arrangement. Chu Qiao had to marry Xiao Wenjun. She would go back to discuss it with her mother later. She needed to call Xiao Wenjun first, as Chu Qiao couldn’t go to the park to meet him today. But, she would definitely make more arrangements for the next time. 

Didn’t this little bitch want to fly out? So she would just break this little bitch’s wings to see how she could still fly!

He Jihong sneered silently, and called Xiao Wenjun. She said a lot of nice words to comfort Xiao Wenjun. Then she hurriedly went back to her mother’s house. 

Chu Qiao’s waigong’s1 house was not far from Shanghai, it was in the neighboring city of Hangzhou. Chu Yuanzhi was actually quite lucky back then. He was not arranged to go too far away, but instead he went to the countryside of Hangzhou. By train, it was only three hours to Hangzhou. And then, she took a shuttle bus for one hour to the countryside.

Compared to those educated youths who went to the northeast, Chu Yuanzhi was much luckier, but he couldn’t bear hardships. So he hooked up with Sun Yinxiu within two years of working. One was because of Chu Yinxiu’s beauty, and second was because Chu Qiao’s waigong was the captain of the production team, which was the prominent official there. 

Chu Qiao, who was sitting on the shuttle bus, felt so dizzy and nauseous. The weather was hot, and all kinds of smells in the bus were mixed together, including the smell of sweat, chicken feces, foot odor……

This kind of smell made people feel suffocated, moreover the road conditions were also bad. Chu Qiao, who had not ridden this kind of bus for many years, couldn’t bear it, and retched several times. 

“Is it uncomfortable? You can just lie on my shoulder.” 

Gu Ye asked softly, and patted his broad shoulder, as lying on it could make her feel more comfortable. 

“Vomit……” 

Chu Qiao retched again, her chest felt so tight that she couldn’t hold on anymore. She fell on Gu Ye’s shoulder, which was broad and thick, giving a special feeling of peace of mind. Moreover, she also smelled another strong scent that could not be described, diluting the bad smell on the bus. So she felt a lot more comfortable.
