1329 [Gu Jia, you find your own position]
"How could you say that to me?" Gu Jia couldn't help but said angrily.
She is fair-skinned, beautiful, well-educated, and a well-known strong woman. Grandma Liu is just a vulgar peasant woman, how can she compare with her?!
"Honey, when you go to the wife's circle, it's the same as when Grandma Liu entered Jia's house. You just go to catch the autumn breeze." Xiang Nan explained, "What you can provide to the wives is nothing more than emotional value and making people laugh. Grandma Liu
When I entered Jia's house, all I did was tease the wife and entertain the ladies. The function is the same."
The Xu family is in the fireworks business. The company is small, the industry is unpopular, and there are no resources that can be used. In comparison, the wife's circle has the resources that Gu Jia dreams of. So when Gu Jia goes to the wife's circle, it is basically equivalent to free prostitution.
This is not much different from Grandma Liu, who is running for nothing.
But there is one thing about Gu Jia that is not as good as Grandma Liu. At least Grandma Liu is open-minded and doesn't get upset when others make fun of her. She makes the wife and ladies happy.
But Gu Jia is arrogant and thin-skinned, and she wants to be the top dog in the circle of wives. She despises Mrs. Wang for having no knowledge and taste, despises Mrs. Yu for marrying a husband several decades older than her, and despises wives for living under their husband's surname.
I only know how to compare and show off...
The circle of wives is filled with top-notch people. Even Mrs. Yu, an 18th-tier starlet, is quite remarkable for being able to marry someone who is in charge of three major amusement parks in the country.
You must know that back then, the young master of South Beauty had only a net worth of more than one billion, and several popular celebrities were jealous of him.
Mrs. Yu's husband has a much higher net worth than Mr. Wang, so the competition she faces must be more intense. Even so, Mrs. Yu still married herself, and her IQ and EQ are quite extraordinary.
People in the wife circle are so smart, how could they not notice Gu Jia's arrogance and contempt.
So Grandma Liu entered the Rongguo Mansion for the second time, and returned home with a full load before leaving. However, Gu Jia and his wife broke up in a bitter dispute, and they were completely torn apart.
From this point of view, Gu Jia's emotional intelligence is far from high.
…
"Do you think that Grandma Liu, who lost all her money and made a beautiful outfit, can be on an equal footing with the ladies and ladies in Jia's house?" Xiang Nan finally asked.
Gu Jia's face turned red, and Xiang Nan was so angry that she died.
She has lived her whole life to save face, but now she is compared to Grandma Liu by Xiang Nan, and she also implies that she is overestimating her own abilities, and dog meat cannot be on the table. She is really angry!!
"How can you say that about me?" She couldn't help shouting, "Isn't it good for our family? Do you think I am willing to go to the wife circle?"
"I don't object to you going to the wife's circle." Xiang Nan spread his hands and said, "But you have to find your own position. You just go to beat the autumn wind and ask for charity.
Why are you carrying a bag worth hundreds of thousands? Do you think that you will be on an equal footing with others? Don’t you think you are asking for help?
What's the difference between a working-class person buying a brand-name bag and imagining that he has joined the upper class? It's just a lie to himself."
"Are you just saying that I'm vain and that I don't overestimate my abilities?" Gu Jia shouted, "I have worked hard for this family and worked hard without complaint, and that's what I got in exchange for such a comment?"
"Okay, you are too excited now, and your speech is completely emotional, which is not suitable for further communication. Let's calm down first." Xiang Nan waved his hands and then stood up to leave.
"Where are you going? Stop right there!" Gu Jia said angrily.
But Xiang Nan didn't stop and went straight into his son's room.
When Gu Jia saw it, she didn't want to chase him into his son's room to make a fuss, so he had to sit down and sulk alone.
…
Xiang Nan played with his son in his room for a while and put him to sleep before returning to the living room.
Gu Jia glanced at him and was about to come over to make another noise when Xiang Nan hurriedly shushed him and pointed to his son's room.
Gu Jia was afraid of waking up her son, so she had no choice but to stop, but the more she thought about it, the more angry she became, and her lungs were about to explode.
Xu Huanshan has always given her whatever she wants. She wants to start a business, buy a big house, send her son to an aristocratic kindergarten... As long as she puts it forward, Xu Huanshan basically has no objection.
Now he is better, his wings are strong. Now that he can negotiate business and win clients, he no longer takes her seriously. He contradicts her every word, which makes her heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys hurt.
Xiang Nan saw that she looked like she was about to bite, so he didn't go over to ask for trouble. After washing himself, he went to bed.
When Gu Jia saw that Xiang Nan didn't come to coax her, but went to sleep alone, she couldn't help but become more and more angry. She ran to the bed, pointed at Xiang Nan's arm and pinched it, venting her anger.
But as soon as she stretched out her hand, she was suddenly grabbed by a big hand. She was frightened, and when she was about to pull her hand away, Xiang Nan pulled her to the bed with force and pressed her down.
After several in-depth exchanges, Xiang Nan finally convinced her.
…
"Okay, I listen to you, I won't buy the bag." Gu Jia nodded.
In fact, after calming down and thinking about it, Xiang Nan is not wrong. Whether she buys a luxury leather bag or not does not prevent her from being in the circle of wives, nor does it prevent her from getting in touch with Mrs. Yu.
Because her entry into the circle of wives was supported by Mrs. Wang. As long as they are willing to take her, she can go. If they are not willing to take her, she can't get in even if she carries a million dollar bag.
So instead of spending money to buy a bag, she might as well find a way to win over Mrs. Wang.
"Honey, your knowledge and taste are something that Mrs. Wang doesn't have. The reason why Mrs. Wang is ostracized in the wife circle is because she is a nouveau riche, and her culture and taste are not up to par.
So you can use your advantage to help Mrs. Wang maintain her reputation in the circle of wives." Xiang Nan reminded her and said, "This is your greatest value. As for the brand-name bag, it doesn't matter whether you buy it or not."
Gu Jia nodded.
Xiang Nan is right, her biggest advantages are knowledge and taste. She doesn't compare these advantages with other wives, but instead compares her net worth with others. Isn't this humiliating herself?
Even if she carries a bag worth millions, people still know her background and know that her family is a "firecracker", so they can't look at her with admiration.
"You explained to me properly from the beginning instead of ridiculing me or belittling me. Am I so angry?" Gu Jia complained again.
"You have to hit the drum with a heavy hammer. If I don't speak louder, how can you listen." Xiang Nan smiled and said, "Okay, now you can think about it."
"Yeah." Gu Jia nodded.
"Honey, I have to remind you again that you must find your own position in the wife's circle in the future." Xiang Nan added, "You are Mrs. Wang's follower. You are responsible for assisting and foiling her. Don't touch other crooked things."
brain.
I know that you have to have a strong personality and want to get ahead, but your position must be supported by strength. We are just ordinary middle-class people, not billionaires. We are not on the same level as others, so don’t take yourself too seriously."
Gu Jia went to the wife's circle just as a foil, but she gradually turned herself into the host. She opened a dessert shop to entertain the wife's circle, held water tasting parties, auctions, and took photos closer to the center each time, which naturally attracted other people.
The wife is dissatisfied.
