Chapter 3345: How Can I Be Happy?

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Ever since Ye Jian left Fujun Town to study in the Southern Province, Principal Chen rarely returned to Shuikou Village. This time, he came back because the sniper base was on holiday.

He mainly took care of Ye Jian’s old house. The parts that needed to be rebuilt were renovated by a local builder. The house was repainted inside and outside. Then, he removed the weeds from the front and back. The old house was instantly brand new. It had white walls, green tiles, roofs, and green pillars. The architecture and design also had the beauty of Jiangnan.

The old house had not been inhabited for a long time, so it had a damp and moldy smell. Fortunately, Principal Chen had let the sun in every day since he came back. He opened all the windows in the house and lit sandalwood. Then, he lit a fire on the stove and asked the builder to repair the house. The house became lively with clean air. After the builder left, he bought a few winter plums from the market and placed them at home. The old house that had not been inhabited for a long time was vibrant again. Even though it was an old house, it was exceptionally warm.

The reason why Sun Ying knew that Principal Chen was back was because Xie Sifeng mentioned it on the phone. “Ye Jian didn’t come back to the village.

Principal Chen from our township middle school came back. He even helped her to repair that dilapidated house. I didn’t expect that the old house would look so good after some repairs.”

She didn’t know that Principal Chen had been taking care of Ye Jian for the past few years. Hence, she asked curiously, “Principal Chen has retired for a few years. Why did he think of helping Ye Jian clean up the old house? Did Ye Jian sell the foundation of the old house to Principal Chen? Is she really not planning to return to the village? Will she not return home in the future? She has already sold her home. She must be short of money.”

As she said this, Xie Sifeng’s tone was full of gloating and a bit of sudden contempt.

In the countryside, if a family couldn’t even protect their home and sold it to others, they were considered useless. If they sold their roots, they would be a wastrel and be criticized.

Principal Chen and Ye Jian were neither relatives nor friends. The old house was built like a new old house. It must be because Ye Jian couldn’t keep the house and couldn’t survive outside. She was so useless that she needed to sell the family’s property to maintain her life.

Humans had a bad nature. They couldn’t bear to see the person they looked down on suddenly become more promising and useful than them. They might say that they weren’t envious, but in their hearts, they always thought that the person they hated would definitely land themselves in misfortune one day. One day, they would live a worse life than them!

Xie Sifeng looked down on Ye Jian. She had always thought that she was better than Ye Jian, but the day she appeared in court, she felt inferior when she saw

Ye Jian. She didn’t dare to show her indignance like Sun Ying and even stood on Ye Jian’s side against her conscience. However, as long as she thought about the past and thought about Ye Jian, her face would be distorted as she lay on her bed at night.

Just like Sun Ying, she was someone who was clearly inferior to her in every aspect. But she suddenly left her far behind one day. She had become a starry sky that she would always have to look up to. How could she be willing to accept this? How could she be happy?

When Sun Ying found her, Xie Sifeng only thought about it for a few minutes. Then, she pretended to be put in a difficult position before agreeing to Sun Ying’s request.

Now that she saw Principal Chen, who was not related to Ye Jian at all, helping her to renovate her old house, Xie Sifeng felt that Ye Jian must have sold the house because she needed money urgently.. She wouldn’t be able to live without that sum of money!
