Chapter 169 The clothes she was wearing
Xixia Village
In the last month of the lunar year, at the door of the Tan family store in Qiaotou, a few people were idle and whispering to each other. Cao Fang pricked up her ears to listen to her sister-in-law Zhang Yongzhen talking about the divorce of Huang Minghao and Jiang Shuya.
He described the scene he heard from Cao Gang in vivid detail, slandering the beautiful woman in every word. His resentment deepened, and he could not bear Huang Minghao's disregard and cold violence.
They even exaggerated the matter by involving Sun Qi and made the ambiguous relationship between the two of them sound very convincing.
Everyone wanted to find out what happened, but the three parties involved were not there. The shop owner, Mr. Tan, was very contemptuous because his good brother had never told him about this. He thought it was normal for couples to have conflicts occasionally, not to mention that they were rarely together and Sun Qi was not the kind of guy who would do anything wrong.
"Boss Tan, you can't say that. Look, the fifteenth day of the first lunar month has passed, and we haven't seen Jiang Shuya in Xixia Village. Could she have divorced long ago and returned to her parents' home?" Zhang Yongzhen didn't quite believe it.
Mr. Tan disagrees;
"Isn't it normal for people to go back to their parents' home for a few days during the Chinese New Year? I think you are quite free."
Zhang Yongzhen glanced at Mr. Tan and was about to retort when the proprietress pointed to a figure walking towards the village entrance.
At this time, Jiang Shuya was carrying large and small bags, including some larger smart toys she had brought from her uncle, to give Tangtang a surprise.
Everyone turned around and saw Jiang Shuya dressed in a pink suit with gold fringe. She was gentle and charming, with a slim figure, fair skin, and black hair draped behind her head, adding to her girlish charm.
Someone in the crowd couldn't help but sigh;
"How does Haohao's wife look like? Look at her figure. She doesn't look like she has given birth to a child. Her skin is just like a little girl's. It hasn't changed at all."
"Hey, you're not that old, you're only in your twenties, it's the right time to grow up, this dress looks really good on you."
The proprietress tutted her tongue twice and added;
"I'll ask her where she bought it later. I want to buy one too."
Zhang Yongzhen could tell at a glance that the dress was not cheap. She had seen the world and knew that such high-end clothing was not something a young farm girl could afford.
She usually works in a high-end beauty salon in the city. Clothes of this brand are only worn by people of status and position. Jiang Shuya obviously can't afford to wear them. She had a thought in her mind, as if she had discovered some big news.
"Madam boss, I don't mean to look down on you! If the dress she is wearing is genuine, it would cost at least 20,000 yuan. Even if it is a high-end imitation, it would cost several thousand yuan more. Can you accept it?"
The lady boss opened her eyes wide when she heard this. "No way, I can't accept a high-end imitation. What on earth does Jiang Shuya do? She wears such expensive clothes, and I haven't heard that her family is very wealthy!"
Zhang Yongzhen twisted his nose;
"Hmph, a country bumpkin from a small village. I heard he's a scrap collector, not presentable."
After that, Zhang Yongzhen leaned over to the proprietress's ear and whispered something. Several people came over out of curiosity. After listening, it was like a boiling pot of boiling water. Some people covered their mouths and exclaimed;
''No, you mean she might be doing that kind of thing in a nightclub.''
No one could believe it, and new rumors spread all of a sudden. Mr. Tan was afraid that the news would get more and more outrageous, so he hurriedly called Huang Minghao.
Jiang Shuya passed by the convenience store and returned home. She didn't see Tangtang, so she tidied up the room upstairs. When she passed the second bedroom, she found that the quilt on the bed was not folded and was in a mess. It seemed that Huang Minghao had been sleeping in the second bedroom. She took a quick glance and didn't tidy up the room. She just closed the door.
Then he sorted the several large bags of toys he brought, took two each, walked out of the yard, walked towards the river, and gave them to Li Xiaohua's son and Zheng Jia's son. When he arrived at the two places, he did not see Huang Minghao, and began to wonder where he had taken Tangtang.
I went to Zhang Xiaohui's house again, wanting to give her the 20,000 yuan in cash I brought with me to buy equipment and supplies for the fast food restaurant. However, she was not at home and the door was locked. I stood at the door and waited for a while, but no one came, so I had to come back later.
As soon as I got home, Huang Minghao appeared at the door, holding a cigarette in his hand and surrounded by smoke. Seeing Jiang Shuya, who exuded a luxurious temperament, he frowned, looked at her carefully, but did not ask.
Jiang Shuya walked up to him calmly, "Where's Tangtang?"
Huang Minghao pointed to the black car parked in front of the store;
"At grandma's house. I called you yesterday but you didn't answer. Get in the car. I'll take you there."
Jiang Shuya took a look at the borrowed car without any doubt. She thought that she couldn't go to her grandmother's house empty-handed in the first month of the lunar year, so she went to the store to buy two things. She passed by the curious eyes in the crowd, and when she walked out, someone spoke;
"Ah, her perfume smells so good, I wonder if Huang Minghao likes this smell."
The others, knowing each other tacitly, covered their lips with their hands, showing contempt.
The two are now divorced. Jiang Shuya was sitting in the back seat of the car while Huang Minghao was driving. He looked back from time to time as if he had something to say.
"What's wrong with you?" Jiang Shuya asked.
After a long silence, Huang Minghao asked, "What kind of business have you been doing outside these days?"
Jiang Shuya disagreed and opened the car window;
"I was doing a ring-tossing business in the city, and the business was good, but the deadline was too short. Shu Huai and I were not allowed to set up our stall after more than ten days."
Huang Minghao: "You were doing purchasing agent business before, and you got clothes very cheaply."
Jiang Shuya: "Well, it's cheaper than retail, but the price is limited."
Huang Minghao: "How much are the clothes on you? Mr. Tan's wife also wants to buy a set."
Jiang Shuya clenched her palms, not knowing how to answer. Naturally, she couldn't say that it was Lin Moxiao who bought it for her. It seemed that there were many people who knew the value of the item. She thought it was just a set of clothes and was careless.
Huang Minghao turned his head to look at her;
"What's wrong? It's inconvenient to say."
Jiang Shuya coughed lightly, scratched her nose, and lied casually;
"My cousin gave it to me. I don't know how much it cost. She didn't know we were divorced. She didn't come to the wedding. She said it was a wedding gift for me as compensation."
However, her cousin had given her clothes before, so she could only make up this lie and let Lin Moxiao be the scapegoat.
As expected, Huang Minghao stopped talking. The car quickly arrived at the bank entrance. Seeing Zhang Qing and Liu Kai standing at the entrance, he walked over directly, opened the car door and got in. Seeing Jiang Shuya was also there, the two were not surprised. Only Liu Kai, who was sitting in the passenger seat, turned around and teased;
"Cousin, you are dressed so fashionably today!"
Jiang Shuya smiled but said nothing. Seeing Zhang Qing sitting next to her, with a big belly, as if she was six or seven months pregnant, she asked a few questions with concern. Zhang Qing didn't seem to appreciate the concern, and said with a fake smile;
"I heard from Zhang Xiaohui that you two were going to cooperate and open an online restaurant. I asked her to continue to work for me a few days ago, but she refused. Was it you who gave her the idea?"
