Reborn in the 70s: Pampered by Regiment Commander-Chapter 1221 - 807: Heartless
Second night.
-----------------
After applying powder and drawing her eyebrows, she let her hair down and re-braided it into two big braids hanging over her shoulders. Che Yali looked at her daughter: "So, do you think I can outshine that young widow?"
Jiang Meixiang looked at her speechlessly: "Mom, can she even compare to you? You’re really selling yourself short and raising her up."
"Whether she can compare or not, that’s up to your dad. If she couldn’t compare, why would your dad want to marry her?" Che Yali sighed and looked at her daughter, "Meixiang, you see, men are indeed heartless. When they’re benefiting from you, they’ll listen to everything you say, but once they see you’re of no use, they’ll kick you aside to live their own little life.
How could I not know your dad’s thoughts? Ever since marrying Mom, he’s never experienced being pampered or served. Now that young widow acts all submissive in front of him, and he’s immediately fallen for it.
When you’re looking for a husband’s family, don’t find a man who just wants to benefit from you. If you have to look, find someone like Lin Baohe. Although he’s honest, he’s sincere towards women. With someone like that, you’ll be blessed."
Jiang Meixiang looked at Che Yali perplexed: "Mom, haven’t you always looked down on Lin Baohe and Zhao Yulan? Why are you speaking for them now?"
"That was before. Now I see things clearly..." Che Yali sighed, "One needs to look farther to see clearly. Even if I’ve realized it late in this lifetime, it’s not too late for you. Never mind, I won’t say more. I’m going to find your dad now. No matter what, I can’t let that young widow take advantage."
"Mom, I’ll go with you." Jiang Meixiang knew very well that she and her mother were in this together. If Dad really married Liu Guifen, her chances of finding a partner would become even more difficult.
"Originally, I wanted to tell Dad about the agreement between Mom and that woman, but after thinking it over, if I told him and Dad didn’t agree, there would be no turning back..."
As they walked out, Jiang Meixiang explained to Che Yali why she didn’t reveal the truth. Che Yali sighed: "Meixiang, you did the right thing. This is something only Mom should discuss with your dad."
When the two of them arrived at Jiang Yuesheng’s dorm, Liu Guifen and Jiang Yuesheng were having dinner. Liu Guifen’s daughter Yuanyuan was sitting on Jiang Yuesheng’s lap gnawing on a bun.
Che Yali’s face immediately darkened. In the years she’d raised her daughter, she’d never seen her husband treat their daughter this way. She sneered: "Is playing with someone else’s child just a pastime for you?"
"What do you want?" Jiang Yuesheng had long anticipated her visit, so he was not surprised and just looked at her indifferently, "We’re already divorced. I live my life, you live yours. It’s best if we don’t see each other often."
"You’re getting married?" Che Yali frowned and stared at him.
"Yes."
"You really can’t wait, can you?"
"Yes."
"When you married me, how did you promise my dad, and now you have the nerve to do such a thing? Has your heart been eaten by a dog?..."
Jiang Meixiang silently rubbed her forehead. On the way, Mom had been analyzing how to handle a man, promising not to lose her temper when she saw Dad, and now she reveals her true colors just upon entering...
However, she wasn’t worried. She knew her own dad well. As long as he had the temptation of regaining his official position, he wouldn’t spare a look for the young widow.
Just like Mom said, Dad now only wants to marry this young widow because he’s enjoying a sense of admiration he’s never experienced before. As long as he’s given the means to continue being admired by most people, he’ll definitely return to Mom’s side.
After Che Yali criticized him for a while, Jiang Yuesheng interrupted her: "That’s enough. What right do you have to come here and order me around? If you have nothing else, please leave. We’re about to have dinner." Saying this, he gently patted the child who was shrinking back in fear, "Yuanyuan, don’t be afraid, she’s a crazy woman. Daddy will chase her away for you!"
Initially wanting to take Yuanyuan into her arms, Liu Guifen pulled her hand back. She’d had enough of the hardship of being bullied while raising a child alone. She wouldn’t easily let go of the happiness she’d gained.
Che Yali was fuming, and without thinking, stepped forward to pull Jiang Yuesheng’s clothes, only to be pushed aside by him with a warning: "If you dare to act up again, don’t blame me for being unmerciful. Before, I tolerated you because we were married. Now, to me, you’re not even worth a passerby. If you’re sensible, leave right away. Otherwise, if you get hurt, don’t say I didn’t warn you!"
