386: Chapter 386 The Foolish Filial Man’s Wife 1_1 386: Chapter 386 The Foolish Filial Man’s Wife 1_1 Zhang Yu had always known about Zhao Aoran’s feelings for Huang Lei, but unfortunately, she was indifferent to him, including the original host.
The wish she made was, if possible, she hoped they would not end up together.
What she hadn’t expected was that Zhao Aoran, who had been in good health, passed away peacefully from this world after she was laid to rest.
Since that failed confession, Zhao Aoran never did anything again that would put Huang Lei in a difficult position.
When she was busy expanding her business, it wasn’t that she didn’t encounter troubles, but in the end, they were all resolved.
Huang Lei knew that Zhao Aoran must have had a hand in making that happen.
Zhang Yu closed her eyes, “Are you satisfied with this outco?”
The original host’s entire life had been dominated by Zhao Aoran, never happy, and this ti, the one who was trapped was Zhao Aoran.
The original host should be very happy, right?
A warm breeze drifted through the air, giving a sense of comfort.
Zhang Yu felt that this must be the original host’s response, “It’s good if you’re happy.”
She closed her eyes and slowly cleared her mind of the emotions from the last mission, all the happiness, anger, sorrow, and joy.
After a long while, when she felt much better, Zhang Yu opened her eyes again, “Accept new mission.”
Although there were still so emotions present, Zhang Yu had grown accustod to it; it was impossible to be completely without feeling.
Being able to calm down about eighty to ninety percent of her emotions, Zhang Yu felt that was very good.
Upon opening her eyes again, she discovered she was lying in bed, surrounded by silence, a good ti to receive the storyline.
When she opened her eyes once more, Zhang Yu, or rather Zhao Wenjin at that mont, slowly sat up and looked around the room, chuckling to herself.
This mission was a real breeze for Zhao Wenjin, as the Zhao Family elders had left her a sizable fortune.
Without being extrely wealthy, at least she could lead a comfortable life, but the man she chose left much to be desired.
Initially, the original host and her parents, aiming to find a dutiful and obedient man, chose her husband, Liao Kai.
He was indeed respectful and honest, but he turned out to be foolishly pious, and with a difficult and biased mother-in-law, the challenges of her daily life could be readily imaged.
While the old Zhao couple was alive, the Liao Family managed to restrain themselves to so extent; even if they were up to no good, they didn’t dare go too far.
Following the death of the elderly couple, the Liao family began making various mischiefs, and the original host was a person without her own opinions.
The Zhao couple made all the decisions, and Zhao Wenjin just went along with the path set by her parents.
When the Zhao couple realized how Zhao Wenjin had turned out, they panicked, worried that a capable man might mistreat her.
They wanted to find a compliant son-in-law and ended up choosing Liao Kai, but the many incidents that occurred later filled the old couple with endless regret.
They had considered having the two of them divorce, but the original host disagreed, and Liao Kai made various promises, so they did not divorce.
“If only they had divorced back then, none of this would have happened,” Zhao Wenjin sighed softly.
She glanced at the calendar; in a couple of days, it was supposed to be when the Liao Family called them three back ho to discuss the wedding arrangents for Liao Xuan.
It was also the beginning of the Liao family’s sche to cheat her out of this apartnt; influenced by flattery from her in-laws, her husband, and her sister-in-law, and concerned that Liao Kai might propose divorce, the original host agreed to move back to the Liao family’s ho after considering various factors.
But this ti, she would absolutely not move in with the Liao Family.
Each one of them was a calculating smiling tiger, an old fox; she had no intention of getting involved.
If Liao Xuan always said Feng Lili was good to her, the best sister-in-law, then let this pair of good sisters-in-law live under the sa roof and continue their affectionate relationship.
If Liao Kai insisted on moving back, she wouldn’t stop him.
After all, n need to save face.
Since he felt it wasn’t good living with the Yue family, then he might as well move back.
Anyway, his salary was all for the Liao Family’s use.
Without his presence at ho, life was actually more relaxed and comfortable.
If he insisted on getting a divorce, that was fine too.
It was already the nineties; divorce was not unusual.
Since they thought Liao Kai wouldn’t have trouble finding another wife, then he might as well find soone new.
Not to ntion the savings she currently had on hand, she was not yet laid off, with a stable monthly inco.
Especially the courtyard house with a storefront facing the street was rented out for business, bringing in several thousand each month.
Even if she really got laid off, she wouldn’t worry about not having an inco; it would be enough for her and her daughter to have a stable source of livelihood.
Moreover, in her childhood, the original host had also studied with a sowhat famous painter, and her foundation in painting was actually quite good.
“Why not draw comics?” Having seen so many comics, she could give it a try.
Or she could contact forr classmates to see if they could recomnd so illustration work for her.
Even if she started off with the low pay of a newcor, as long as she worked hard on her drawings, she didn’t believe she would always be priced so low.
After making a rough plan for her future life, Zhao Wenjin let out a sigh of relief.
There was no helping it; no matter what, not having money on hand really made her anxious.
As long as she could get by, Zhao Wenjin was not worried.
This street was in a protected area, aning the houses wouldn’t be demolished, nor could she renovate or remodel.
Even if renovation was required, it had to go through approval, aning the house had to stay as it was.
Zhao Wenjin had no plans to renovate.
The house had been completely refurbished in the early eighties, with regular maintenance every few years.
The house’s structure was still solid, and the quality was excellent.
Although the front part was for comrcial use, it was separate.
In the middle was a not-so-big, not-so-small courtyard of about a hundred square ters where she could plant flowers and grass.
Living such a life would be beautiful, the perfect place to retire.
Then there was the main building and the side rooms that needed so interior redecoration.
The house only had one bathroom, which was also small, sothing Zhao Wenjin, who had just used it, found very uncomfortable.
At the least, there should be two bathrooms, and if possible, a small balcony would be ideal, even a small one would do, where she could drink tea and chat.
Although she did not know how much the labor and material costs were now, she guessed it would be a considerable expense.
She pulled out her passbook and did a rough calculation.
“It seems like it should be enough.”
Seeing these passbooks, Zhao Wenjin rembered a significant event: In a few months, Liao Xuan’s husband, Xie Haiqing, would have a car accident while driving their car.
He would severely injure soone, and either had to pay for the victim’s dical expenses and various compensations so they would drop charges, or else it would proceed through official channels.
Liao Xuan, of course, wouldn’t let her husband get in trouble, resulting in all kinds of crying and complaining.
Since the car was registered under Zhao Wenjin, there was no choice; the money left by Zhao family’s old couple was almost all spent.
And yet, it didn’t lead to a good outco; after Xie Haiqing’s employer learned about the incident, they did not renew his contract when it expired.
The jobs he found afterward were not good, and once again, the bla fell on the original host.
