Chapter 49: The 70 RMB Training Voucher Gift from a Girlfriend
My best friend Liang Man and her boyfriend Ye Chuan ended their seven-year love affair, successfully reached the end of their love, and entered the marriage hall.
In the previous life, the original owner discovered that the 70 yuan betrothal gift that Ye Chuan gave to Liang Man might be a training voucher. Worried that Liang Man was being cheated, she told Liang Man. Unexpectedly, Liang Man went to Ye Chuan's house with the 70 yuan training vouchers and the wedding was cancelled.
Not long after Liang Man and Ye Chuan broke off their engagement, Ye Chuan met a girl through a blind date and soon got married.
But Liang Man regretted it. Since she couldn't win Ye Chuan back, she blamed the original owner. If it weren't for the original owner, she wouldn't have made a fuss with Ye Chuan, nor would she have broken up with Ye Chuan.
So, Liang Man, who was full of resentment, put a bottle of sleeping pills into the original owner's milk, and the original owner fell asleep and couldn't get up.
"Shanshan, the date for Ye Chuan and I's wedding has been set. You can be my bridesmaid."
"Of course, we are best friends. Who else would you ask to be your bridesmaid besides me?"
"My desk mate in junior high school and my dining companion in high school, you wouldn't mind, right?"
"Of course I don't mind, we are best friends."
"Yes, we are the best friends in the world, best friends for life."
Before the wedding, Ye Chuan took a whole suitcase of 70 "cash" to his best friend's parents' home. In his previous life, the original owner checked the suitcase out of genuine concern for his best friend, but in this life, Zhang Shan would not meddle in other people's business.
"Manman, Ye Chuan's love for you is still as sincere as ever. He will take the 700,000 yuan without hesitation. There is no ambiguity at all."
"Manman and Ye Chuan's love spans from wedding dresses to school uniforms. You can't envy them."
"Ye Chuan's family is so well-off, it's only 700,000 yuan, it's not like he can't afford it. After all, our Manman is so outstanding, Manman deserves to be cherished like this."
Liang Man's friends all looked at her with envy, which satisfied her vanity.
But she still couldn't let them see the 70 yuan betrothal gift, lest they get jealous of her and secretly take a few of them, which would be her loss.
Zhang Shan looked at Liang Man with a proud and complacent face, and really felt that Ye Chuan was willing to spend 70 to marry her. Ye Chuan's family was rich, but also extremely stingy.
In his previous life, Ye Chuan’s wife was not married home with training coupons, but with real gold and silver. After all, they were a perfect match, and the Ye family would not dare to bully them.
Only Liang Man, who has no background, was looked down upon by Ye Chuan.
"Shanshan, go and see if Ye Chuan is here?"
Liang Man's face was filled with a happy smile. Today was her happiest day. After today, she would be the wife of a wealthy family and would not be in the same class as Zhang Shan and others.
This feeling of superiority was felt not only by Zhang Shan but also by the other bridesmaids. However, considering that it was someone else's wedding, it was not easy to fall out with them.
Zhang Shan didn't want to ruin their wedding. After all, she still wanted to see what happened to Liang Man's 70 training coupons.
How long can self-righteous love last?
As soon as she went out, she saw Ye Chuan's welcoming convoy coming over. Ye Chuan was undoubtedly a handsome guy with three-dimensional facial features, fair skin, and a well-proportioned figure.
It’s just that the calculation in his eyes is unpleasant, but as long as he is not calculating against her, it doesn’t matter.
Ye Chuan: "Zhang Shan, we are here. What do you want to do to take the bride away?"
With his hands in his pockets, he exuded an air of arrogance that looked down on everyone, even a little bit greasy.
"That depends on the bride's wishes. As long as she is satisfied, she can come out on her own and we won't try to stop her."
Zhang Shan spread her hands and opened the door of the bride's room, "Manman, Ye Chuan is here!"
"Really?"
Liang Man stood up excitedly, but felt that she couldn't rush it, so she sat back on the bed with dignity.
"Sisters, use your skills and don't let him in so easily. Let him know that this bride is not so easy to marry home. You must cherish her after you marry her."
Liang Man smiled happily, as if she had already thought of her sweet married life.
Zhang Shan and the other bridesmaids looked at each other and, according to their previous plan, intended to make some money from Ye Chuan. They were all just sisters and had no scruples.
They all knew Ye Chuan's best men, and they played a series of games targeting their shortcomings. Zhang Shan and the others had a lot of fun, but Liang Man in the room felt heartbroken when she saw the money lost by the best men.
All this money is hers. If she spends a penny more now, she will have a penny less to spend in the future.
Except for Liang Man, no one spoiled the fun. Even the groom himself was having a great time. For a moment, everyone forgot about the bride who was waiting to be picked up at home.
After having fun, the groom was finally able to take the bride away, but the smile on Liang Man's face looked a little ugly.
"Manman, today is your big day. If you are unhappy, don't show it on your face. What will the guests think of you? Ye Chuan's parents will be unhappy." Zhang Shan leaned close to Liang Man's ear and reminded her in a low voice. She successfully saw Liang Man's face become even uglier.
Ye Chuan's parents were not satisfied with her, so Liang Man became even more cautious.
but……
"What's wrong with you today? Can't you give Ye Chuan and the others some water? We almost missed the auspicious time."
I mainly feel bad about those red envelopes.
"Don't worry, we know our limits." It doesn't matter whether it's money or not, the main thing is to make you unhappy.
When they arrived at the wedding, Liang Man's complexion improved slightly.
Each of them just received more than twenty red envelopes. The four bridesmaids were not stingy. They performed a show on the stage with Liang Man, and then returned to the table to feast on the food.
After eating and drinking, Zhang Shan said goodbye to Liang Man and went home to rest.
In the evening, Zhang Shan received a call from Liang Man, "Shanshan, Ye Chuan, this scumbag, actually cheated me with the practice coupons. The 70 is not RMB at all. I don't want to get married. I want to divorce Ye Chuan!"
"Manman, don't be impulsive. Tell me what's going on."
Zhang Shan took out the peanuts and melon seeds she got at the wedding today, opened a watermelon, and began to listen to Liang Man's complaints.
It turned out that on the wedding night, Liang Man was still thinking about the 70 betrothal gift, so she opened the suitcase while Ye Chuan went to take a shower. However, what she saw was not cash, but a bunch of training coupons.
So, the newlyweds quarreled on their wedding night. Liang Man couldn't swallow this anger and wanted a divorce. Ye Chuan couldn't comfort her and could only run out of the room in anger.
Zhang Shan was eating melon seeds while listening to Liang Man's endless complaints.
She didn't take it to heart, after all, Liang Man was soon coaxed by Ye Chuan.
Liang Man's married life was also full of ups and downs, and gradually she stopped complaining to Zhang Shan about the trivialities of her marriage. Until three years later, Liang Man and Ye Chuan's relationship broke down and ended in divorce.
Liang Man was asked to return the 70 yuan betrothal gift, which was not real money at all. Liang Man had no choice but to call Zhang Shan to ask her to testify and to sue Ye Chuan for marriage fraud.
"Manman, you told me that the 70 yuan was a practice voucher, but I didn't see it with my own eyes, and the judge wouldn't believe me. Besides, why didn't you call the police at the time? Why did you continue to be with Ye Chuan? How do I know if you were kidding me?"
"Zhang Shan, how can you say that? If you hadn't checked the suitcase properly, nothing like that would have happened. This is all your fault. You have to help me solve it!"
"If you think so, then I can't do anything about it. Otherwise, you can sue me in court. I'll wait for your flyer. That's it for now. I'm busy."
“Dudududu…Ah!!! Zhang Shan, you bitch!!!”
After the call was hung up, Liang Man wanted to eat Zhang Shan even more.
Now even the only person who could help Liang Man is gone. Liang Man has no evidence to prove that the 70 yuan is a practice voucher, so she can only take out 70 yuan from her share of the property. After the divorce, she is poorer than she was three years ago.
There's not even a place to live.
During this period, Liang Man sought help from Zhang Shan, but was coldly rejected by her. She couldn't understand why Zhang Shan became so cold, but her hatred for Zhang Shan only grew.
Unable to accept the reality, Liang Man jumped into the river on a rainy night. Before jumping into the river, she sent a text message to Zhang Shan, wanting to take Zhang Shan with her to die.
Zhang Shan predicted her move and hacked into her phone directly, deleting all the text messages that were not beneficial to her.
As Liang Man's only bond in this world, her ashes finally fell into Zhang Shan's hands.
"Liang Man, before you jumped into the river, you would never have thought that you would end up in my hands. What should I do then?"
Open the urn, turn it upside down, and the ashes will fall out and drift away with the wind.
Without Liang Man, her best friend who held her back, Zhang Shan achieved success in both career and love. She also learned to paint in her spare time. When she felt like it, she would take a walk on the bridge and share the sweetness and happiness of her life with Liang Man.
It’s a pity that Liang Man’s ashes were scattered, otherwise I could have opened the coffin and discussed it with her.
