The life of Lao Liu since 1944

Chapter 231: Standing Up for Xueru

"The third point is that Zhuzi must live in this courtyard and must not quit his current job within five years. He is too honest and simple-minded. If he doesn't experience setbacks and hardships, how can he make progress?"

After saying this, the other party paused for a moment, then added: "Well... that's the general situation. As for other aspects, you can slowly understand and feel them based on your own experience. After all, as time goes by, many things will naturally become clear to you."

Yan Zhensheng listened to all the requests silently and nodded in agreement, but after repeated thinking and pondering, he still could not detect even the slightest idea that was beneficial to his own interests.

So he raised his head and looked at Hou Jie in front of him with a focused and doubtful expression.

Hou Jie had obviously seen through Yan Zhensheng's inner confusion and puzzlement at this time, so he simply pointed out the truth: "Hahaha! You see, Zhuzi calls me 'brother' all the time, but I can't let him call me that for nothing, can I? This is all I can do."

Hearing this, Yan Zhensheng suddenly realized and couldn't help but feel some admiration for Hou Jie's noble character.

Afterwards, Hou Jie deliberately kept Sha Zhu and asked him to have a good chat with Yan Zhensheng and his wife about family matters, and reminded him to remember to return home at night.

After everything was arranged, Hou Jie walked leisurely and slowly towards the shop run by Chen Xueru.

It has been quite a while since I last saw her, and I can't help but feel a surge of longing for her.

As soon as he entered the shop, the clerk Xiu Ju sneakily informed him of the situation. As a loyal fan of Chen Xueru, isn't it normal for her to report her sister when she was wronged?

"Son-in-law, you are here. I have been looking forward to seeing you for a long time. Since you and the young lady divorced, many people have come to harass the young lady! It is really annoying, especially recently. There is a guy named Qiangzi who comes here almost every day." Xiu Ju said indignantly.

When Hou Jie heard this, his anger instantly rose like ignited explosives.

He thought to himself: Damn, just as expected, once the news of the divorce gets out, those people with ulterior motives will swarm in like sharks smelling blood, and try to target Chen Xueru.

After all, Chen Xueru is not only rich, but also good-looking and has a slim figure. Which man in the world would not be moved by her?

Hou Jie knew that if he didn't teach these scheming men a lesson, they would probably never realize their own worth.

Thinking of this, Hou Jie gritted his teeth and said fiercely: "I understand, Qiangzi, right? I know this person. Don't worry, leave this matter to me, and see how I teach him a lesson!"

After saying that, he lost the interest in chatting with Chen Xueru and turned around and went to the tavern.

Qiangzi usually hangs out in the tavern. It's already afternoon time, and with his laziness, he can always catch someone.

In the TV series, he often gave his tricycle to Cai Quanwu to transport goods, and he lived on the rental fees of the tricycle.

He has a very cruel heart. No matter how much Cai Quanwu earns, he has to give him half of it.

Qiu Ju took a closer look and felt that something was wrong. She was afraid that Hou Jie had met with an accident, so she rushed to find the young lady.

When he hurried to the second floor, he looked a little panicked and said with some uneasiness: "Miss, Miss, I'm afraid I'm really in trouble this time."

When Chen Xueru heard this, her face was full of confusion and worry. Could it be that something went wrong in her shop? Just as she was about to ask, she heard Qiuju continue, "Miss, the son-in-law came just now, and in a moment of desperation, I told him about Qiangzi coming to harass you. Now, he has gone to Qiangzi angrily to ask for an explanation."

Chen Xueru raised her eyebrows slightly, and a hint of joy arose in her heart.

"Huh, this guy, does he still have me in his heart after all?"

However, she said something completely different.

"Don't pay any attention to him. We are divorced. His current affairs have nothing to do with me. Go away! I still have to continue to settle the accounts."

Qiu Ju was so disappointed when she saw this that she had to go downstairs with her head down, still mumbling and complaining, "Young lady is just being stubborn. I haven't seen you smile for a while. The son-in-law is so unreasonable. He already has a beautiful lady like young lady by his side, but he is still not satisfied and keeps another woman outside."

Hou Jie walked into the tavern with a gloomy face, and his sharp eyes quickly locked onto Qiangzi, who was talking eloquently and complacently.

He took big strides, full of anger, and walked quickly to Qiangzi. He put one foot on the stool, leaned over and looked at Qiangzi with contempt.

"Qiangzi, you were quite arrogant during the time I was away! I even heard that you often harassed Xueru?" Hou Jie asked angrily, his voice filled with uncontrollable anger.

Qiangzi looked up and saw that the person coming was Hou Jie, and he felt no fear at all.

In the eyes of outsiders, Hou Jie has already lost his power and is just a rag collector.

Although I am a small person, just a tricycle owner, my current status and income are far better than his.

So, Qiangzi raised a scornful smile:

"Oh, I was wondering who it was! It turned out to be the majestic young master from the past. Please don't talk nonsense, how could I harass her? I was pursuing her openly and sincerely, okay!"

After hearing this, Hou Jie's eyes became even more fierce.

Then, he said in a tone as cold as the north wind in the cold winter: "Very good, Qiangzi, have you forgotten? I once warned you guys that even if I divorced her, if anyone dared to have bad intentions towards her, I would never let him go easily!"

As the two were talking, Hou Jie's eyes, as sharp as an eagle's, were fixed on Qiangzi. The strong murderous intent in his eyes seemed to be able to pierce the human soul.

Faced with such a fierce gaze, Qiangzi showed no fear at all. He just spat fiercely on the ground.

Pooh!

Then he crossed his legs and looked at Hou Jie with an extremely contemptuous and disdainful attitude.
