Chapter 322
Yu Li and Yan Jiecheng's divorce drama had already made him lose all face.
Now they wanted him to spend money to please her; his Yan family wasn't that cheap!
The Eldest Uncle didn't want to spend money, but the Eldest Aunt didn't want her son to get a divorce.
In this day and age, divorce is a very shameful thing.
Furthermore, if Yan Jiecheng divorced Yu Li, he would have to spend money to get married again.
The Eldest Aunt knew the Eldest Uncle's temper, so she persuaded him and calculated the costs.
She said that a lot of bride price had already been spent to marry Yu Li.
If Yan Jiecheng remarried after the divorce, he would have to spend another bride price.
Maybe he would even have to buy new furniture...
Between the separation and the reunion, who knew how much money would be lost.
Once this was calculated, the Eldest Uncle could only painfully take out two yuan.
"This is the only time, don't let it happen again!"
"We can't indulge Yu Li's bad habits!"
"How can a couple live like this!"
"It's really frustrating!"
"Remember to pay me back as soon as you get your salary."
In the front courtyard, the Eldest Uncle was unhappy, and Cao Weiguo was also filled with anger when he returned home.
Song Yulan asked with a sour tone: "What could she possibly have to discuss with you in the middle of the night?"
Cao Weiguo snorted coldly: "What else could it be? The mess with Banggeng and Jia Zhangshi!"
"She kept chasing me for a letter of forgiveness when I was going to and from work."
"Now she's even running to my door to cause trouble!"
"I think she's asking for a lesson!"
"You mix some sugar with tomatoes at home."
"I'm going to give Qin Huairu a warning!"
Cao Weiguo walked out with a cold face, and Song Yulan called out worriedly:
"You must not lay a hand on her!"
"Got it!"
Cao Weiguo replied casually, and just as he reached the middle courtyard, he ran into Qin Huairu.
Qin Huairu was also just about to go find Cao Weiguo, and after running into him, she said angrily:
"Cao Weiguo, you're something!"
"Want to eat and run?"
"I'm telling you, no way!"
Cao Weiguo looked Qin Huairu up and down and sneered: "What? You want to blackmail me now? Look at what kind of person you are!"
"Cao Weiguo, you're not human!"
"Boohoo!"
"I've already been with you like that? And you look at me like this?"
"Do you have any conscience left!"
Qin Huairu wasn't here to blackmail anyone; she had a more ambitious goal.
What she wanted wasn't a momentary gain or loss, but a long-term plan.
Qin Huairu's tears fell, and she looked as aggrieved as an abandoned young wife.
If it were Shazhu, he would probably be kneeling and licking her boots.
But who is Cao Weiguo?
His life idol is "Cao Cao!"
"Cry! Cry louder!"
"Attract everyone over to watch the show!"
Cao Weiguo sneered with indifferent eyes: "Qin Huairu, is this all the tricks you have?"
Qin Huairu quickly wiped away her tears, her face full of resentment and grievance:
"What tricks do I have!"
"I'm just a bitter woman!"
"Why can't you be considerate of me!"
"I'm not looking for you because I want to pester you; I just want you to care about me too."
"I'm a woman too! I need comfort too!"
"Can't I have feelings? Can't I have love?"
These words were spoken with such sentimentality and tenderness that they were enough to make one's bones soft.
But Cao Weiguo really wanted to laugh at this moment; is love what Qin Huairu needs?
Does this selfish woman have love?
Playing around with her is fine, but talking about feelings is like a mouse marrying a cat—suicide!
"Enough, enough, enough! Qin Huairu!"
"Don't cry and whine to me."
"I'm not Shazhu; your weeping act is useless on me."
"I won't give you the letter of forgiveness, and don't even think about anything else."
"If you want to talk about feelings, don't come to me; go find Shazhu."
Cao Weiguo smiled shamelessly: "I was just impulsive with you; don't overthink it."
"If you insist on thinking you've been taken advantage of, I can give you a little something."
These words made Qin Huairu furious: "You! You! You are shameless! You bastard!"
Cao Weiguo was unabashed: "If you want to curse, go ahead; as long as you're happy."
"But I'm warning you, if you go to my house to cause trouble again, I'll make your life a living hell."
"If you don't believe me, you can try."
Qin Huairu stared at Cao Weiguo like he was a heartless man.
She stared without saying a word.
This made even Cao Weiguo's scalp tingle:
"Don't look at me like that; I know you're not reconciled."
"I don't have the habit of eating for free either; take this and use it, and we'll be even."
He reached out and grabbed Qin Huairu's hand, took a stack of grain coupons from his pocket, and slapped them into her hand.
"I have to say, you're quite smooth; let's exchange again when there's an opportunity."
"Move your body around; it's good for you, good for me, good for everyone!"
"I'm leaving! Don't go to my house again, whether you have business or not!"
He patted Qin Huairu's cheek and turned to leave with a playful, rogue attitude.
This made Qin Huairu gnash her teeth in anger, wishing she could chase after him and take a bite.
"Exchange your grandfather!"
"Shameless! Rogue! You thousand-cut bandit!"
"I'm not finished with you!"
She clutched the grain coupons resentfully and went home, and when she counted them inside, she was immediately filled with excitement.
This stack of grain coupons was all local Jingcheng grain coupons with a denomination of one city jin.
There were 30 in total, which meant 30 jin of grain coupons.
Local grain coupons are different from national grain coupons.
They can only be used locally in Jingcheng.
They are valid for one month (valid for the current month, expired after that).
Although the time limit for local grain coupons is short, in this day and age, most people don't have enough to eat.
They use up the grain coupons before the end of the month, and very few people can let them expire.
