After getting Mrs. Yu's order, Gu Jia was very happy and thought that she had made the right move in the circle of wives.
"Husband, I want to open a dessert shop and bring over the afternoon tea in the wife's circle. In this way, although I can't provide any resources, I can provide a venue for resource exchange.
If there are more and more resources here, then I won’t even bother looking for them. They will even fight to come to me, don’t you think? "Gu Jia asked Xiang Nan for advice.
"Honey, what are you dreaming about again?" Upon hearing this, Xiang Nan didn't know where to complain.
Gu Jia has tasted some sweetness in the wife's circle, and actually fantasizes about controlling the wife's circle. It is really whimsical and idiotic.
Gu Jia thought about building a platform for resource exchange. The idea was good, but the platform also needed strength to support it.
The location of Mrs. Li’s Afternoon Tea is set at Mrs. Li’s villa because Mrs. Li is old money, rich for three generations. Not only does she have money, but she also has backers and connections, so everyone flocks to her, even Mrs. Wang wants to let her Three points.
This is strength!
Gu Jia didn't have any resources, backers or connections. It would be too naive to rely on just one dessert shop to control the wife circle.
"Do you think Grandma Liu can build a shack in the field so that the Haitang Society can come over and compose poems every month?" Xiang Nan asked.
There are many high-end clubs in Hujiang. No matter the decoration or service, they are all first-class, allowing you to enjoy emperor-level enjoyment. No matter how beautifully decorated Gu Jia's dessert house is, it is not very attractive to a wealthy wife with a net worth of tens of billions.
When Gu Jia saw Xiang Nan comparing herself with Grandma Liu again, she couldn't help but feel angry and ashamed, her face turned red, "Why are you talking about me like that again? Isn't it for our family?"
"If you are really doing it for the good of our family, then act honestly. People in the wife circle are not fools. Even if Mrs. Wang can't tell the difference between Monet and Van Gogh, or the difference between a high-top table and a low-top table, they will still follow her husband. He started from scratch and earned tens of billions of dollars.
I have never seen such a person before. Whose eyes can your little tricks hide? What is your status in the wife circle? You are just a follower. You actually want to control the wife circle and let others compete for your platform. It is simply a dream.
If I don’t say anything else, I’ll just tell Mrs. Li that if you don’t let Mrs. Wang take you there in the future, you won’t even be able to get in through their front door. You still want people to beg you in return, you are so funny! Xiang Nan retorted, feeling that Gu Jia would really shine if given some sunshine.
"You don't understand me at all." Gu Jia was so angry that she cried.
She had devoted so much to this family, had to grovel and humiliate her in the circle of wives, and was humiliated by her husband when she returned home. She really felt too wronged.
"It's not that I don't understand you, on the contrary, I understand you too well." Xiang Nan sighed.
If he didn't know Gu Jia's ending, he would think it didn't matter if he took some risks. After all, you always have to have dreams, what if they come true?
But the key point is that he knows that Gu Jia is a master who dares to gamble ten thousand yuan if he has one yuan. Not only do you use leverage to buy luxury homes, luxury bags, dessert shops, and tea factories, you also dare to use leverage to increase your interpersonal relationships.
He is just a foil in the wife's circle, so he dares to use leverage to pry into the corners of the wife's circle. That is to say, the wife circled Mercy and didn't do much to deal with her.
Otherwise, a phone call from Mrs. Yu can stop the order; a phone call from Mrs. Wang can make Xu Ziyan drop out of school; a phone call from Mrs. Li can cause the Xu family's company and factory to be inspected. If you are checked three times a week, no matter how good the company is, it will become corrupt.
Gu Jia wanted to control the wife circle, but once the wife circle counterattacked, she had no ability to protect herself. If you dare to make random decisions just like this, you are really trying to throw a lantern into a pit - looking for death.
…
Xiang Nan immediately expressed his concerns, "Honey, it's true that the wife circle is a big cake. But if you want to dominate the power of sharing the cake, you have to see whether others are willing to let go.
Let me ask you, if Mrs. Li resists, do you have the strength to convince her? You have no strength at all, but you still want to rebel. What is this if not a joke? "
Gu Jia was speechless by his question. She knew in her heart that he was right, but she still felt aggrieved and cried for a long time.
"Honey, I know you feel aggrieved in the circle of wives." Seeing this, Xiang Nan advised, "Otherwise, you should go back to the company. Anyway, Zi Yan has already entered school, and you don't have to guard him every day.
You go back to work. In our company, you will never be wronged, and everyone will be at your disposal. what do you think? "
He knew that the reason why Gu Jia wants to control the wife's circle is because she often gets angry in the wife's circle. She stood while others were sitting, and she watched while others ate, just like a proper little follower.
Therefore, Gu Jia, who has always liked to be naughty and pushy, has a vague resentment in her heart, and she wants to take control of the wife's circle one day and become the master. Let the ladies who were domineering over her before also squeeze their heads to beg for her grace.
There is nothing right or wrong in her idea, but her approach is questionable. If she wants to control the circle of wives, she must be stronger than them, otherwise she will fall to her knees when they fight back.
"No, our business is already on track. It's running smoothly with or without me." When Gu Jia heard this, she objected, "But I got into the wife circle with great difficulty. I can't quit so easily." . I still want to stay in the wife circle so that I can get more resources."
"Since you want to stay in the circle of wives, then be honest and stop thinking about the things that are there and not have." Xiang Nan nodded and said, "There is no way for misfortunes and blessings, only people call for it. The circle of wives is not only about blessings, More evil retribution.
Those ladies turned their hands into clouds and turned their hands into rain. If you think they only know how to send down rain, you are thinking too much of them. "
Gu Jia has always had a strong admiration mentality. All rich people are great and good people. So the mansions that rich people live in must be good; the kindergartens that rich people go to must be good; the equestrian lessons that rich people take must be good...
In the end, the three-million-dollar tea factory was taken over directly without any investigation, only to fall into a trap.
"I know everything, don't be nagging." Gu Jia nodded.
When Xiang Nan saw this, he knew that she was still not convinced.
He couldn't persuade him any more and could only sigh.
…
When he fell asleep at night and was sleeping soundly, Gu Jia suddenly turned over and sat up, stretched out his hand to push Xiang Nan awake, "Husband, husband~"
"What's going on?" Xiang Nan asked, rubbing his eyes.
"I dreamed that something happened to my dad." Gu Jia said, "No, I have to call him quickly."
"Call him at two o'clock in the middle of the night? You'll scare him into trouble even if he's fine." Xiang Nan said speechlessly, "How about this? I'll accompany you to see dad tomorrow, okay?"
Gu Jia's father was widowed when he was in his forties. Since then, his marriage has not been renewed and he has always lived alone. In recent years, as I age, my health has become worse and worse.
He suffered from heart disease, high blood pressure, etc., which also made Gu Jia particularly worried.
