Reborn in the 90s, I traded my ex-husband for eight apartments.

Dawan Village, Xiaxi Town.

When Pei Wenyan saw that breakfast was sweet potato porridge again, her face immediately fell.

"Mom, when will our family slaughter a pig for the New Year? I want to eat meat."

Cao Daniu brought out a plate of kimchi and threw it on the table:

"Why kill it? That pig doesn't even weigh as much as you. How many meals could you eat if you killed it?"

Pei Wenyan exclaimed:

"How long will it take to raise them?"

"Bai Zhenzhu used to raise pigs so well and fat. How did you raise your pigs?"

Pei Xiangming's face darkened when he saw the food on the table:

"That's right, Mom. I haven't seen you sell more than a few pigs all year. What are you busy with at home all day?"

After saying that, he turned on the TV.

There's less work in the fields during winter, so I'm a bit more relaxed and have more time to watch TV.

Old Pei tapped his pipe on the table leg, his face grim:

"You're being picky when we're giving you food?"

The television was turned on, and Bai Zhenzhu's face flashed briefly on the Pei family's black and white television.

Pei Wenyan screamed:

"Mom!"

"That woman just now looked like Bai Zhenzhu."

When Cao Danu and Pei Laotou looked over, they only saw a person who looked like a leader speaking.

Cao Daniu glared at her daughter:

"You're always making a fuss over nothing. If that old hag Bai Zhenzhu had the ability to get on TV, pigs could fly."

Thinking of Bai Zhenzhu, Cao Danu, makes me angry.

So much money! How dare that damned whore Bai Zhenzhu swallow it all?

If she hadn't run off with all the money, his precious son wouldn't have been unable to afford college.

The Bai family, on the other hand, all went to live a life of luxury with Bai Zhenzhu.

That's all her family's money!

However, Pei Xiangming also saw that the woman from earlier did indeed resemble Bai Zhenzhu.

He ignored everyone else and stared intently at the television.

Sure enough, a few seconds later, the camera focused on Bai Zhenzhu's face again.

Pei Wenyan shook Cao Daniu's arm vigorously:

"Mom, look! It's Bai Zhenzhu! She's with so many leaders! It's her, it's definitely her!"

Now the whole family saw it.

With a loud "Aow!", Cao Daniu lunged at the television, as if she wanted to tear Bai Zhenzhu out of the screen and shred her:

"White Pearl, it's her, it really is her!"

Pei Wenyan was utterly shocked:

"Bai Zhenzhu actually appeared on TV? What makes her so special?"

The key point is that the white pearl on TV is so beautiful.

Standing next to those leaders, you would never guess that she was once a village woman.

Old Man Pei's expression was also not good:

"People's hearts have turned bad. Bai Zhenzhu ran away with Xiangyang's money and completely abandoned our family. Alas!"

Cao Danu beat her chest and stamped her feet in frustration:

"My Xiangyang, you were so badly deceived by that bitch!"

"You gave her so much money, look at how slutty she is now, she must have hooked up with a rich guy."

Pei Wenyan looked at the sweet potato porridge and pickled vegetables on the table and said resentfully:

“She took my brother’s money to live a good life in the city, while we suffered at home.”

Pei Xiangming picked up the bowl and slurped down half a bowl of porridge.

Cai said:

"White Pearl is actually in Chengdu."

"We can't just let it go like this. It's almost Chinese New Year, and they'll definitely go back to their hometowns."

Cao Danu completely agrees:

"Yes, let's go ask her for the money."

“Our whole family will go; if they don’t give it to us, we’ll stay at the Bai family’s house for the New Year.”

Anyway, she didn't dare go to the Bai family alone anymore; all the women there were like shrewish women.

After dinner, taking advantage of the sunny weather, Cao Daniu took Pei Wenyan to the field to pull up radishes.

As soon as I arrived at the field, a woman from the neighboring field called out:

"Aunt Cao, I saw Pearl on TV this morning. She's doing well now."

"Oh my, you know what, those pearls are much prettier than before. Big cities really do nurture people."

Cao Danu spat directly:

"Damn it, she ran off with my money from Xiangyang, she's a thief."

The woman in the neighboring field curled her lip:

“Aunt Cao, why do you say that? We were all there when Pearl divorced your Xiangyang.”

“That 40,000 was clearly the compensation that the government leaders ordered your Xiangyang family to pay to Zhenzhu. We heard it all clearly.”

Her husband also went to work with Pei Xiangyang.

They initially agreed on 20 yuan a day, but now they're only paying 8 yuan a day.

The woman harbored suspicions that the man was following Pei Xiangyang's example and cheating on her, so he only told her that the 20 yuan he gave her was worth 8 yuan.

Either Pei Xiangyang is lying.

In short, many people in the village are very dissatisfied with Pei Xiangyang and his family.

An older woman nearby overheard their conversation and joined in:

"That's right, Lao Cao, don't talk nonsense. Our village's reputation has been ruined by your Pei family. It's hard for the village kids to find partners now, and you're still spouting nonsense here."

"You don't cherish such a good daughter-in-law as Bai Zhenzhu. Your whole family has committed many sins. You will regret it sooner or later."

Cao Danu was so angry she jumped up and down:

"I bother!"

“Isn’t my current daughter-in-law a million times better than that Bai Zhenzhu? She’s a rich young lady from Shanghai, living in a big villa, driving a car, and having servants to wait on her.”

The older woman showed no mercy:

"Why doesn't your wealthy daughter-in-law invite you to live in a big villa in Shanghai?"

The woman from the neighboring field also said:

“Aunt Cao, your Xiang Ming and Wen Yan have stopped going to school. Weren’t they supposed to go to Shanghai to ask Xiang Yang to arrange a job for them? Why are they still staying at home? I haven’t seen them working in the fields.”

Pei Wenyan, who was standing next to her, was also furious:

"Are you blind? I'm just working, aren't I?"

The woman smiled:

"Oh, it's Wenyan! Judging from your outfit, I thought you were some rich young lady playing in the fields."

"you……"

Pei Wenyan looked at her hands, which had become much whiter after being well-maintained, and gritted her teeth in anger.

She didn't want to pull up the radishes; it would get mud under her fingernails.

After the New Year, she still wants to go to Shanghai to find her older brother.

She insisted that her older brother arrange a job for her in the city, and that she find a partner in Shanghai in the future.

She doesn't want to become like a country woman, turning herself into a haggard old woman.

The woman felt relieved after speaking her mind and went back to chatting with the older woman over there.

The voices were very loud, praising how beautiful and amazing Bai Zhenzhu is now.

Cao Daniu and Pei Wenyan were so angry that they left without even pulling up any radishes, carrying empty baskets back home.

Qingfeng Road, Chengdu.

Nie Li has come to buy more goods again.

This batch of goods totaled 200,000. Tang Shan took 60,000, leaving 140,000.

Nie Li said she wanted them all.

"Sister Li, your business is really big."

Nie Li smiled and said:

"To be honest, I've set up another stall specifically to sell your goods, both retail and wholesale."

"I'm here today to tell you that I'll be your regular customer from now on. It's convenient to get goods from you and I can see the goods in person, which saves me a lot of trouble."

I couldn't help but praise:

"You found an excellent source; Lianhuachi doesn't even have this manufacturer's products."

Bai Zhenzhu then said:

"Sister Nali, could you estimate how much more stock you need so I can place another order?"

"By next month, I estimate there will be fewer orders."

Nie Li nodded:

"Yes, it's almost Chinese New Year, so we're going all out for this."

"I still need at least 500,000 worth of goods. Lianhua Pond is packed with people lately, even people from neighboring provinces are getting their goods here."
