There were a total of twenty-one people at the gathering. In addition to the meal and group photo, they also created a contact list.
On the way back, He Hongmei flipped through it and said, "Oh, besides you and this He Hongjuan, everyone else has connections, huh?"
The two of them were getting closer, and when talking to women, they had to learn to gossip from them. Qin Chizian jokingly asked He Hongmei, "Sister He, at your age, being able to become Deputy Township Head is quite impressive! What’s your background?"
He Hongmei sighed, "I attended a teacher training college and was supposed to teach at a school. My current husband's father was the Deputy Director of the Labor Bureau at that time and said he could help me leave the education system. The condition was that I would date and marry his son.
My husband graduated from high school, but he had connections, so he was first arranged into the education system as a staff member and later became a subject teacher. At that time, I was young and thought he looked quite good. Although his education level was lower, having a powerful father made me agree.
Over the years, we have not had any children, and our relationship has become somewhat lukewarm."
A year ago, a new female student transferred to their school. How should I put it, she's just average-looking, but she's younger than me.
He is determined to divorce me and marry her, I lost to time, lost to youth."
"What does my brother-in-law think? That girl is much younger than him, right? Will she marry him?" Qin Chizian asked.
"He even brought that girl to my house for dinner, calling her 'sister-in-law' with every bite. I never expected it would turn out like this; she's eight or nine years younger than us," He Hongmei said, looking quite upset.
"I asked later, and the girl's family conditions are not good. Her father is bedridden, and over the years, they've exhausted their savings. She has a younger brother who is two years younger than her and is also at the age to find a partner and get married. My husband earns fairly well; although his father has retired, the family has some savings...
That's basically the situation."
Qin Chizian said, "So I’m just confused about my brother-in-law...?"
He Hongmei scolded him, "Stop referring to him as your brother-in-law. We have officially divorced. After all these years, we never had children. I went for a check-up, and the results showed no issues. Given the current situation, it's better for us to part ways early and find peace separately. The house in Baliushu is jointly owned; I gave him a sum of money, and now it’s completely mine. He has bought another house in the county, reportedly registered under the woman's name."
"Sister is single now, and she can also let herself go." After saying that, she looked at Qin Chizian with a meaningful look.
He Hongmei said to Qin Chizian, "I used to think you were just a commoner, but now it seems that the person behind you is more powerful than anyone else!"
Qin Chizian was puzzled, "Who is behind me? I am just a recent college graduate."
He Hongmei rolled her eyes in a charming way and said, "Hmph, you may fool others, but you can't fool me!"
Many things are seen as stories in the eyes of others.
"Look at your contact list, with twenty-one people. Although you're not even a deputy department head, you are actually performing the duties of a substantive department head. Do you think I don't know who Zhu Lijuan and Wang Tong are? In their respective departments, they may look glamorous and prestigious, but in reality, it's difficult for them to move up another level," commented He Hongmei.
I have to say, this woman has quite a sharp eye.
Have I always relied on the influence of people behind me to advance in my career?
Qin Chizian is feeling a bit lost.
