Chapter 25 Making An Example Out of Her (2)



Chapter 25 - Making An Example Out of Her (2)


“Make an example out of them.”


“Make an example out of them?” Shu Jianyang squinted his eyes, “You mean using Li Jiaojiao?”


Shu Yan gave him a light smile. Did they think she had forgotten about her? She just hasn’t got around to her was all. She thought perhaps if Ye Zhiqiang would cooperate, then they would wait on it. But now that Ye Zhiqiang wasn’t willing to cooperate, then Shu Yan would just have to do what she needed to do.


As the female lead’s mother, there was a long and detailed background on Li Jiaojiao in the book.


Back in ‘92, college graduates would be assigned a job upon graduation. Li Jiaojiao attended a middle-of-the-road college but was still able to secure a position – as a finance personnel at a wine factory. In the book, Li Jiaojiao had very good eyes and had them set on the uncultured Ye Zhiqiang from the very beginning. After they got married, she used her wit to get into a government unit. With her good handwriting and writing skills, she was able to become the secretary of some higher up officials. By the time the female lead appeared in the book, Li Jiaojiao was already the head of Education Department. Ye Zhiqiang, meanwhile, also expanded his work tremendously and became one of the largest construction companies in City Xi. The female lead was born with the silver spoon, as the saying goes.


Most readers got the impression that Ye Zhiqiang left his ex-wife first before he got together with Li Jiaojiao. After all, back in those days there were no such thing as a marriage certificate in the villages. All Ye Zhiqiang had to say was “we were young and didn’t know any better” and that was that.


Looking back at traditional marriages from the perspective of 2019, they felt very informal. A marriage was not really a marriage without a marriage certificate. That being said, many also didn’t think divorce was a big deal either. Plus, the book cleared stated that Ye Zhiqiang gave his ex-wife a house and all the savings they had in the house.


Shu Yan only noticed all the details after she had transmigrated as the original owner. Or perhaps, it was because she was now looking at the entire incident from a whole different perspective. Had she transmigrated and become Li Jiaojiao? Shu Yan shuddered and didn’t want to keep on thinking about that hypothetical.


It didn’t matter. She transmigrated as Shu Yan, the old wife who was about to be dumped by a heartless scum of man.


All things considered, taking care of Li Jiaojiao was a much easier task. Considering that she didn’t want to completely ruin things with Ye Zhiqiang just yet, Shu Yan only picked pictures that only had Ye Zhiqiang’s back or side profile. She made three copies of the photos – one set for Li Jiaojiao’s school, one for the factory that she worked at, and one back to her old home. She did not elect to use the post office. Everything was delivered by hand.


They were posted on the bulletin board at school, the announcement board at the factory, and Xiao Fei, the one who took the pictures to the village, did not post the pictures on the wall but gave a stack directly to a woman in the village and asked her to pass them onto Li Jiaojiao’s parents.


“Holy mother of God!” the woman shrieked when she looked at the pictures. Her voice attracted many who gathered around her, all of them got very excited when they saw the pictures.


Entertainment was rare back in those days. When the villagers had free time, they’d always gathered around and gossip. Any man and woman that walked slightly closer to each other would be rumored that they were having a fling. Once the rumors spread, they sounded as though they were real.


Now, there were pictures right in front of them. These were solid evidence. They might as well have witnessed the actual event themselves!


“Isn’t that this college student from the village? Her mom always brags about how amazing she is. She’s amazing, alright.” A woman poked her head over and said, “Aunt Guihua, don’t just horde them all. There’s a whole stack, hand some over to me already!”
