Li Jie's voice was a little tired, "He went to find a woman again."

My heart relaxed. It seemed like I wasn't talking about Zhou Jin.

"What happened to him?" I asked tentatively.

"He only stayed at home for a few days before he went out again." Li Jie said with grievance, "I don't understand, in what way am I inferior to the women outside?"

I think of my husband Li Jie, and the woman beside him, very young, in a short skirt, with a great figure, and always laughing.

"Have you put on airs for him again?" I asked.

Li Jie paused for a moment before saying, "I am just advising him to stay at home more often in the future. My daughter would always want him to stay by her side."

I sighed in my heart. I was sick of her submissive, weak look, as if the whole world was ready to bully her.

"Don't worry about him." "It's not like you don't know what kind of person he is. Even if you can hold him for a while, how can you keep him tied for a lifetime? If you have the time, can't you go get more money and learn more things?" Is there nothing in your life but your children and your husband? Wouldn't it be better if you paid more attention to yourself? "

Li Jie seemed to be shocked by my sudden anger.

I took a deep breath and felt bad that I had to say what I was thinking.

She was silent for a long time before saying, "I'm sorry, but you also hate me, right? Every time I complain to you, I've had a bad life since I was young, I'm so poor that I don't even have a pair of shoes. It wasn't easy for me to get married, and I'm even married to someone who doesn't even love me."

I was silent, not knowing what to say.

"Never cared about me. No one understood me." Li Jie said as she choked with sobs, "My parents and brother only know how to ask me for money, my mother-in-law also looks down on me. I'm not like you, born with rich parents, my looks aren't bad, and my husband isn't bad either."

I frowned as I listened to her complaints. I couldn't feel her pain, and what did she mean by that?

What was she feeling sorry for herself for?

Could it be that if she was worse off than me, I would no longer have the qualifications to suffer? Could pain be comparable?

"I know you're having a hard time." I suppressed the dissatisfaction in my heart and comforted her, "You are pregnant and are in a bad mood, so you can be at ease. As long as you are a boy, you can be considered as having a son. As for other things, don't think too much about them."

"Yes." Li Jie wrinkled her nose and said, "Thank you."

"Alright, don't be sad." I decided to say a few more words before I hung up.

Li Jie was silent for a moment, before saying, "Come and gather at my place if you have time."

"Hmm?" I asked curiously, "What's the matter?"

"Didn't I see Xie Zongming last time?" Li Jie now had a much calmer tone, "I will speak with Xie Zongming and have his cut off from that woman."

I curled my lips in my heart and said, "Forget it, this matter has already been settled."

"She's gone?" Li Jie asked, "How did you chase her away?" Her tone suddenly became vivid.

"Well, she's a liar." I said, how could I tell you the role of Zhou Jin in this?

"Then we must gather together." Li Jie said, her voice was filled with happiness, "I beg of you, Ah Ying, please pass some of your experience to me, bring Xie Zongming along as well."

"Fine." I reminded him, "Don't say that he was looking for Little San, it's already over."

Li Jie hung up the phone, and my good mood also disappeared.

"Are you free tomorrow night?" After dinner, I asked Xie Zongming who was washing the dishes.
