Chapter 1628: Petty
Crack.
The steel seal representing authority was stamped on the divorce certificate, and the hope for a beautiful future was finally destroyed by the greed that could never be satisfied.
Ye Xiaolang's eyes flickered, her lips trembled, she wanted to speak but stopped, looking pitiful, looking at Qiao Yichen faintly.
Finally, she opened her mouth tremblingly: "Yichen~"
Qiao Yichen's essence had always been a gentle and soft-hearted person. Seeing the woman he once wanted to embrace like this, and having already reached this point today, although all the unhappiness of the past could not be let go, it had finally become the past.
"Take care of yourself..." Qiao Yichen said so.
Compared to the beginning of the past vows and sweet words between each other, the end of the two just ended like this, and the past became the past...
"Qiao Yichen!" Ye Xiaolang's pitifulness turned into resentment, "Still let me take care of myself? Let me tell you, your family won't be good. You do things like this, God will collect you sooner or later, especially Wang Yan!"
Seeing that she had become the crazy appearance that made him unable to sleep well, the softness that Qiao Yichen had just raised disappeared without a trace. He just shook his head, sighed silently, and turned away.
He finally ended this marriage that had only lasted less than half a year...
Divorce certainly has a price. Perhaps for Ye Xiaolang, who had high expectations, it was not much, but for his own level, it was a lot.
Qiao Yichen was a thrifty person. Since the old Qiao family became rich, he didn't need to give money to his younger brothers and sisters, but instead, his younger brothers and sisters gave him money to spend, which saved a lot of expenses. At the same time, he had also been insisting on doing part-time jobs to earn money, and his income from the TV station was not low. So, spending little and earning much, he had saved a lot just by relying on these part-time jobs and his salary.
And when he married Ye Xiaolang, those who gave gifts gave a lot. Except for giving a sum of money to Ye Xiaolang's parents, he didn't spend much, mainly Ye Xiaolang consumed more.
But by comparison, Ye Xiaolang didn't spend too much. Because for a period of time before and after the marriage, Ye Xiaolang still often looked for Sanli and Simei to play together, and the expenses for buying various things and eating and drinking were naturally paid by Sanli and Simei.
And then immediately after, Ye Xiaolang was unsatisfied and started to have ideas. Later, it made Qiao Yichen disgusted. In order to prove that she was not that kind of person, she didn't consume much, and even spent her own small savings, without spending much of Qiao Yichen's money.
Later, with the joint efforts of Ye Xiaolang and her parents and brother, this marriage finally ended.
So in fact, Qiao Yichen still had a lot of money. Plus Qiao Yichen was soft-hearted, so he divided his money with Ye Xiaolang, more than three thousand yuan. This was money that an ordinary worker couldn't earn in a year, and to save so much money, it would take more time. For someone like Ye Xiaolang who had a good job, it was also quite considerable.
It's just that obviously Ye Xiaolang's pursuit was not like this, so these three thousand plus yuan were more like a heavy whip hitting her body.
Because before knowing Qiao Yichen's family, she didn't dare to think about these three thousand plus yuan. And after knowing, she was not satisfied with these three thousand...
Ye Xiaolang had already reflected on her reckless approach. Starting from the result, people will be very sober. She already understood that as long as she lived a good life with Qiao Yichen, as long as she made Qiao Yichen happy, then many things she wanted, as long as they were reasonable, could basically be satisfied.
Even if Qiao Yichen opposed, he couldn't resist Erqiang, Sanli, and Simei taking the initiative to give benefits to this sister-in-law.
But she didn't wait for others to give, but took the initiative to ask, urgently expressing her restless thoughts, making everyone disgusted with her.
She was not stupid, not suddenly looking for trouble. In the past, she had told Sanli and Simei some things, and had been persistently instilling her ideas into Qiao Yichen. But she ignored some of these people's disgust for her.
After all, Sanli and Simei wouldn't say anything bad for Yichen's sake, nothing more than complaining to Wang Yan and others. Qiao Yichen was also someone who could tolerate. Although he was dissatisfied in his heart, he wouldn't express it easily.
This gave Ye Xiaolang an illusion, an illusion that she could go further to ask for benefits, so the water was spilled and couldn't be recovered, and she finally destroyed the good life she could have had step by step...
Not only did the divorce end, Ye Xiaolang also lost her job at the same time.
Just after the divorce, before the New Year, she was fired by her unit and lost her decent job with a position. The rapid progress of the procedure made her realize the role played by the old Qiao family behind the scenes. This precise strike of the gap-like difference made her desperate, depressed, and finally turned into resentment.
She angrily found Qiao Yichen and yelled and scolded, but that was all. She dared to come and scold Qiao Yichen only because she was really angry and dizzy.
Sending out this anger, as long as she thought about Wang Yan's past deeds, and thought about the examples of Wang Yan cleaning people up that she heard the old Qiao family tell as jokes, she was also scared to tremble...
Now she really had nowhere to go. The dormitory arranged by the unit asked her to vacate after the New Year. The home she didn't want to return to was now like a stranger because of the previous farce. She was alone here.
Her previous friends also knew more or less what she had done. They were still flattering before, but now they couldn't be contacted. Her colleagues in the dormitory also seemed to ignore her existence.
She didn't wait for the New Year, packed her luggage and left Jin Ling, because it was the same everywhere she went, only Jin Ling was different. Of course, she didn't want this difference...
But it's not that no one cares about her...
During the New Year, the food must be cooked at home. However, the meals of the old Qiao family are relatively late. After all, there are quite a few industries, and many people cannot go home for this New Year. Even if they gave generous wages, the condolence activities that should be done cannot stop. Even if it is just for show, people must go to show their attitude.
So Wang Yan, Erqiang, and Sanli, the three who have industries, are all busy outside, especially the places Wang Yan has to go are more, after all, his big stall is expanding and developing rapidly, and the headquarters are all in Jin Ling, he basically has to walk through it.
By the time everyone gathered at the old Qiao house, it was already night.
At this time, the old Qiao house was very lively. In addition to the Qiao family, there were Qi Weimin and Qiqi.
Because the second aunt's later partner has children, Qi Weiyi and Qi Xiaoya are married and have places to go. On such a lively day, Qi Weimin had already accompanied his biological mother at noon, so he brought Qiqi to the old Qiao house to be lively in the evening. Relatively speaking, he was more comfortable here than staying at home.
"You're finally back, Wang Yan, we've almost cleaned up the dishes, just waiting for you, the big chef, to show your craftsmanship."
Wang Yan reached out and rubbed Qiqi's head, busy cooking. Stewed dishes are no way, they were all made by Sanli according to the procedures left by Wang Yan, and the taste is still guaranteed. Maybe the heat control is not very good, and it can't reach Wang Yan's level, but it's not too bad.
And except for the time-consuming stewed dishes, the speed of other stir-frying, deep-frying, and cold dishes was fast, and a large table was made in no time.
"Come on, as the head of this family, on this great day of the New Year... of course, everything else is quite good, it's just that some people don't know people well..."
Old Qiao held his cup and talked endlessly, and even started to provoke war.
Simei snatched the words: "Okay, everyone just drink."
"Right, right, right, Aunt's husband, stop talking, drink." Qi Weimin also interrupted Old Qiao.
The old guy was of course intentional. It seemed that now his life's fun, besides daily pretending to be forced and enjoying the blessings, was watching Qiao Yichen, this eldest son, make a fool of himself.
Qiao Yichen was too lazy to ignore his biological father and drank directly with Wang Yan and others. Old Qiao was not annoyed, drinking happily, very comfortable.
To be honest, with the rise of the old Qiao family, the biggest beneficiary and the biggest change was not Erqiang and Simei, nor Yichen who was much easier and had no pressure, anyway, it was Old Qiao, this unreliable one.
Now Old Qiao is the winner in life. He doesn't spend money on eating, drinking, and smoking. He can also invite people to eat and drink. He is surrounded by flattery and envy. There is nothing in the family that he needs to worry about. Erqiang also gave birth to a son with Ma Suqin. There is no worry or sorrow at all. He just enjoys life, takes good care of his body, lives a few more years, and lives a few more good days...
It is also because life is better, the driving force of the New Year has been weakened a lot. Because of poverty, happiness is happiness. After material conditions are not lacking, the meat of the New Year is no longer uniquely sweet, and the feeling is very average. There is no expectation.
On the other hand, because everyone is in Jin Ling, there are frequent gatherings for eating and drinking, and the reunion of the New Year is also nothing. Everyone knows the recent situation very well, and there is not so much fun. It is nothing more than talking about how busy they are before and after the New Year, and sighing about life.
So the New Year is not cherished more than usual, but with Wang Yan, it will never be cold, and happiness is the same. Not to mention the Spring Festival Gala of this era, which can also bring happiness to thousands of households.
After eating and drinking, it was midnight after watching the Spring Festival Gala. At the beginning of the New Year, fireworks bloomed in the sky.
The liveliness of the old Qiao house finally dispersed.
When sending everyone away, Qiao Yichen pulled Wang Yan to smoke.
In the past few months, he had suffered from Ye Xiaolang's torture, and Qiao Yichen was upset. As the saying goes, it takes ten years to learn well, but it only takes a minute to learn bad. Smoking a cigarette is not about good or bad, so Qiao Yichen became a smoker.
"Something up?" Wang Yan asked knowingly.
Qiao Yichen nodded silently. Obviously, he pulled Wang Yan to smoke on the side, but he didn't speak.
Wang Yan didn't urge, just listened to the happy loud voice of Aunt Wu coming from Aunt Wu's house next door. After smoking half a cigarette like this, Qiao Yichen finally spoke.
"About Ye Xiaolang..."
"You know, when you master certain resources and can decide some things to bring benefits to people, someone will take the initiative to think for you, share your worries, worry about what you worry about, and worry about what you worry about. Even if you don't speak, or maybe you don't even know, someone will handle things."
Wang Yan looked at Qiao Yichen, who was a bit helpless, and said with a smile, "Although your affair with Ye Xiaolang doesn't look big, at the same time, Ye Xiaolang also publicized her relationship with you and your relationship with me in her unit."
"Then the colleagues and friends of both of you knew about the matter, and after some exaggeration, and confirmed that you had divorced, naturally they handled her. It was all a matter of convenience."
"In fact, even if no one targeted her, she couldn't mix here either. Everyone discussed her affairs and blamed her. How could she bear it? She had to resign herself. She had to say that she wanted to go to the sea to struggle and leave herself a decency. So there is no difference, because she had no decency in the first place."
"Sigh..."
Qiao Yichen smoked a big mouthful of cigarette with melancholy, "Then do you know where she went?"
"Magic City, it's so close, it must be the first choice."
"Did you send someone to follow her?" Qiao Yichen widened his eyes in disbelief, "Wang Yan, it's really not worth it for such a small thing..."
"Where are you thinking? Am I such a petty person?" Before Qiao Yichen could say anything, Wang Yan nodded affirmatively, "I am."
Seeing Qiao Yichen's eyes widen even more, Wang Yan laughed, "No other meaning, just knowing that you would definitely ask, so I asked people to pay attention."
Qiao Yichen was silent for a while, then asked: "Then how is she now?"
"She should be staying in a small hotel, waiting to find a job after the New Year. You don't have to worry. You gave her more than three thousand yuan. In addition, she is a college student and has worked for many years. She is experienced. Finding a related job to make a living is not a problem. She can live quite well. When she gets there, no one will point fingers at her anymore. Isn't that a good thing?"
Currently, it is the beginning of 1994. College students at this time are of course quite valuable. They are properly called talents, not human resources. Technology is advancing, and the market is expanding. Ye Xiaolang's level is enough to go anywhere without worry. In fact, the post-70s generation with culture and technology are basically doing quite well.
Hearing this, Qiao Yichen nodded: "How long do you want people to follow?"
"Nothing more than two more people staring, any length of time is fine. They also provide work. This job is very easy and earns quite a lot. They are all very happy. If I let them withdraw, they will probably cry secretly for a while."
"Better not watch..."
"No, I have to let them go to Ye Xiaolang's new unit to explain the situation later. I really hold grudges."
"Wang Yan, it's really not worth it." Qiao Yichen's tone was a bit exhausted, "Not knowing people well is my problem. I don't really blame Ye Xiaolang. On the contrary, I am quite grateful to her. It was she who made me understand many truths and have a deep reflection on myself."
"This kind of reflection is not too good."
Wang Yan shook his head with a smile, "Going out to play with Song Qingyuan more can indeed make you progress in this regard. Of course, I also know that you are not such a person. I'll let everyone look for you later and find you a reliable one."
"Forget it, after such a thing, I don't have the heart for a while. It's getting late, hurry back."
Qiao Yichen, who had satisfied his curiosity, ran back. After a while, Sanli came out of the courtyard, hugging Wang Yan's arm, and the two walked together on the street of Shamao Lane. It was another year...
