Previous life, Jiang Ning's whole family were cannon fodder in a novel about the protagonists' rise to fame and success, living as a contrasting background to them. Under the crushing press...
Soon, Jiang Rou confessed to Ma Huiwen at the police station.
Ma Huiwen originally wanted to drag Helen into the mess, but Helen invoked diplomatic immunity, shifting all the blame onto her and even claiming that she had stolen the camera.
Ji Yang is a government official, and framing a government official is a serious crime.
Jiang Rou shifted the blame to Ma Huiwen, thus escaping imprisonment, but she had to pay a fine of five thousand yuan and was also ordered to permanently close the dance hall.
Ma Huiwen was sentenced to one year in prison for stealing a large sum of money and framing officials. Although the result did not cause serious harm, the impact was egregious.
Her clothing wholesale business was auctioned off, and all proceeds were given to Helen as compensation.
After this farce, none of the perpetrators escaped punishment.
Jiang Rou was furious. She had originally planned to close her business for the New Year, but now it had become a permanent closure. She didn't know how Lin Tao would treat her when he came back.
She was like a frightened bird, terrified that Lin Tao might suddenly return.
After much deliberation, Jiang Rou still felt that money could solve all her troubles.
So she went to Sister Hong to discuss how to get Jiang Jianguo to reveal the treasure.
At this time, they also received news that Feng Shuyao had fallen ill again during interrogation by the guards.
This time it was more serious than before; she had a mental breakdown and kept calling for Jiang Jianguo to save her.
The police station could only send her to a mental hospital to treat her first.
Sister Hong was secretly pleased; with Feng Shuyao gone mad, only Sister Li was left.
Li Damei is just a nanny, nothing to be afraid of.
The mother and daughter arrived at the Jiang family's house again, strutting around arrogantly.
After they sent Li Damei away, they explained their purpose to Jiang Jianguo:
"Dad, don't you still have a batch of jewelry and calligraphy that you haven't taken out? Those things can't be eaten or drunk. If you take them out, we can sell them and get a lot of money!"
Jiang Jianguo was astonished: "How did you know?"
Those treasures were his last resort.
For so long, neither of his sons has shown up, and his daughter is also disappointing. He's just relying on his precious possessions to support him in his old age!
Even Feng Shuyao hadn't mentioned this.
How did Jiang Rou find out?
At the opportune moment, Sister Hong took his hand, her voice so sweet it could drip honey.
"Look at your memory! When you were young, you lay in my arms and said you wanted to die on me and give me all your treasures. Have you forgotten? If you give me your things, I won't have to work so hard running the restaurant. I can just stay by your side every day!"
Hearing her say that it was very sweet, Jiang Jianguo felt his bones melt and was actually a little tempted.
Just as he was playing with her smooth little hands, Li Damei burst in and roared at him:
"You philandering old man, can't you see that? They're only after your money. What kind of care are they talking about? Do you think they'd do what I do for you, like cleaning up your messes?"
Jiang Jianguo's beautiful dream instantly fell to the ground because of her filthy words.
Yes, what does he have now?
But can someone with a crippled body really protect themselves?
"Alright, all of you, stop talking. There's no treasure here, so don't even think about it. From now on, I'll live off my pension, and nobody can take anything from me."
Jiang Jianguo's legs are just not working properly, he's not blind.
Seeing how rude he was, Sister Hong stormed off in a huff.
Jiang Rou didn't leave. She was determined to stay and not let Li Damei have such a good opportunity.
Li Damei was furious. Her job was as a nanny, while Jiang Rou was the mistress. If she stayed, she would have to obey Jiang Rou's orders. If Jiang Rou pointed east, Jiang Rou couldn't go west.
But it was impossible to let her leave. It turned out that Jiang Jianguo still had a treasure in his hands. My God, we almost gave up this cash cow.
Jiang Rou only has a short attention span; when it comes to truly taking care of people, she's the one who does it best.
But after a few days, Li Damei was almost driven crazy by Jiang Rou.
They either complain that the clothes she washed weren't clean enough and make her wash them again, or they complain that the food she cooked wasn't to their liking and make them cook it again. They never give her a moment's peace.
She couldn't help but suggest to Jiang Jianguo that they spend some money to treat Feng Shuyao's illness, and once she was cured, they could come back and fight with Jiang Rou.
She's just a nanny, is it easy for her to earn money?
Jiang Jianguo used all his money for his own food and drink, so he refused to spend any of it on Feng Shuyao's medical treatment.
Li Damei had no choice but to secretly go to the mental hospital to inquire about Feng Shuyao's mental state.
Luckily, she had an old friend who worked at the hospital, which helped her get in smoothly.
While strolling in the hospital garden, she accidentally bumped into a woman wearing a hospital gown.
She looked up and saw that the woman had delicate features, smooth skin, and looked to be in her early forties. She was the woman whose child Feng Shuyao had taken away.
I'd heard she was crazy.
It turns out she had been at this hospital all along.
She was clearly well taken care of; despite being nearly fifty, she had few wrinkles and her skin was as elastic as when she was young.
It's such a pity that such a beautiful appearance has led to madness.
At this moment, Feng Shuyao ran through the garden in a frenzy, showing no signs of improvement, so Li Damei could only shake her head and leave.
But she kept thinking about that crazy woman.
Suddenly, she realized that this was Jiang Ning's biological mother.
My God, what a huge secret this is!
Her excitement was palpable, and she hurried toward Jiang Ning's house, wanting to have a proper talk with her about the kickback.
At this moment, Jiang Ning's house was bustling with activity, and they were about to have dinner.
Today, Wang Xiufen made noodles, hand-pulled noodles. After serving, she noticed there were two extra bowls.
"Mom, why are there two extra bowls?" she asked.
Wang Xiufen wiped her hands with a scarf: "I made extra on purpose. Take it to the neighbors so they don't have to start cooking. Don't forget to scoop out the broth."
Okay.
Jiang Ning brought the noodles to the next room and saw that Grandpa Ji was about to get angry. Ji Yang was talking to him about something, probably about his sister Ji Min.
Seeing that Jiang Ning had brought noodles, the two of them beamed and accepted them.
When Jiang Ning left, they were still talking about Ji Min.
I heard that Ji Min's mood had been quite stable in the hospital, but recently she has been frequently getting emotionally agitated. I wonder what she saw that she shouldn't have.
Ji Yang decided to take her home for a couple of days.
Jiang Ning had just returned from next door when Li Damei came over and called her out.
Her family lived in a grand courtyard house with high gates, and Li Damei was a little intimidated and dared not go in.
Jiang Ning came out reluctantly, and said irritably:
"What's up?"
Li Damei chuckled, rubbing the hem of her clothes:
"I know the secret of your past, and I want to trade you for some money."
Jiang Ning chuckled: "Auntie, if I wanted to know, I would have asked you long ago. Why would I need you to come to my door?"
Li Damei became anxious: "I just found out too. Don't you want to know where your biological mother is?"
I don't need much, just give me five hundred yuan.
"Isn't news about your own mother worth this little bit of money?"
Jiang Ning shrugged, making a gesture as if to shoo the guest away:
"If you don't want to know, you can leave."
