Chapter 386: Only Oneself Knows the Bitterness and Warmth
"I had found her a match before, and that young man turned out quite successful. He used to work at a farm machinery factory, but step by step he worked his way up and became the county head of our county..."
"After working in the county for a few years, he did extremely well and became very capable. Later on, he resigned to go into business, everyone called him a fool, but unexpectedly, a few years later he made a fortune..."
Yun Haichao spoke of this man with a radiant face, glowing with pride as if he were his son-in-law.
"Is he married?"
"Of course."
"How’s his marital relationship?"
"That... I’m not exactly sure, but it should be pretty good, I guess."
Shen Siyuan smiled without saying a word, sensing a hint of evasion in Yun Haichao’s manner.
It’s not that Shen Siyuan had impure thoughts, suspecting the worst of people.
It mainly has to do with the fact that the man Yun Haichao mentioned, despite his humble origins, made rapid progress. Hence, when he was at a low point, the wife he married was essentially his equal in status. But as he rapidly developed and kept advancing himself, unless his wife was equally formidable, there would be a disparity between them.
Gradually, they would have less in common, then grow emotionally distant and become like strangers, ultimately parting ways.
