Ai Xiaoxia transmigrated to the early 1990s, becoming a newlywed bride returning home.
Unexpectedly, her maiden home was a wolf's den, actually forcing her to extort money from her husban...
Chapter 135 It's a done deal
Meng Qiuju also saw Lin Rui at this time. He had been here yesterday. It seemed that he had been suspicious for a long time.
To be honest, these two children look very similar. Ai Xiaoxia can tell at first glance that they are from the Lin family, and Lin Zhu looks very much like her own child.
Of course, she now refuses to admit it, since there is no evidence anyway.
So Meng Qiuju spoke first to Ai Xiaoxia, "Xiaoxia, you brought so many guests here, why don't you send someone to tell me first so I can prepare the meal."
Ai Xiaoxia looked at Meng Qiuju and could imagine her last resort. She asked, "Do you really think it's okay to just keep quiet? You know, the fact that we're here now and didn't call the police directly is already giving you a chance."
Meng Qiuju said, "What are you talking about, kid? I don't understand."
Lin Jianye walked up to Meng Qiuju and said, "Back then, you exchanged two children and made our own flesh and blood do hard labor for you. You are truly cruel. Don't think that you can get away with just denying it. Now that we have DNA technology in China, we can find out if they are your biological children by taking a test."
He knew that DNA testing was not easy, but he would spend all his money, ask people for help and find connections, get tested, and then sue to get his child back. Of course, this was the last resort.
When Meng Qiuju heard that they could verify whether the child was her biological child, she blinked in panic and asked, "Then why didn't you go to A?"
Seeing her nervousness, Lin Jianye said threateningly, "Since you're so stubborn, we really don't need to give you any chances. Let's call the police and do whatever we need to verify. With my identity, you should know if you have any chance of winning. You might even end up in jail."
Meng Qiuju is a rural woman. She is afraid of the police, afraid of going to jail, and also afraid of Lin Jianye sitting opposite her, who is the director. So she dare not hide what is going on. In fact, she now knows that this matter can no longer be concealed, and people have reached a conclusion.
She knelt down in front of Lin Jianye and said, "Brother, things are not what you think. It was my mother who switched the baby. You know, I had just given birth at that time, so I didn't have the energy to think about all this. My mother heard your wife talking and knew that your family lived in the city, so she switched the baby. It was two years later that she told me. When she chatted with your wife, she found out where your family lived and what your names were. Then I followed my mother's instructions and went to find your family."
No one expected that this matter would involve an old lady, but what Meng Qiuju said was credible. After all, she had just given birth at that time, and these things were not so easy to do. She probably learned her preference for boys over girls from her mother.
Lin Jianye sighed deeply: "But you found out later and still didn't tell the truth. Do you think you are innocent?"
Meng Qiuju quickly shook her head: "I know my sins are grave, but at first I didn't dare to tell the truth. Later, as time went by, it became even harder to speak."
Lin Jianye asked Meng Qiuju, "Is it hard to talk about it, or do you just not want to talk about it? You were able to go find Lin Zhu and contact her privately. Isn't your selfish motive obvious? I didn't bring the police here today because Lin Zhu has called me Dad for so many years. I'm letting your family reunite for a while. But I will call the police when I get back, so be prepared."
Ai Xiaoxia felt at ease watching her father's actions and words. If her parents were indecisive and couldn't tell right from wrong, she would still be upset.
Ai Xiaoxia truly likes parents like this. They have positive values and really care about her.
At this time, Meng Qiuju was so scared that she fell to the ground and looked at Ai Xiaoxia: "Xiaoxia, although Mom did something wrong, I have raised you for so many years. Please help me beg for mercy. Don't call the police. I don't want to go to jail."
Ai Xiaoxia looked at Meng Qiuju: "You have changed the life I should have had. You let your daughter occupy my identity for twenty years. You think I will forgive you? Forget about the feelings. We don't have any. For these years, you forced me to work all day long, beat and scolded me, and asked for a high betrothal gift when I got married. You also made me exploit my in-laws to raise your son. Guan Mingyue almost beat me to death because I didn't bring the amount you wanted when I returned home. Is there anything you can do that I can forgive? By the way, don't forget to return the betrothal gift to us and send it to my in-laws. I will leave the rest of the punishment to the law."
Although Ai Xiaoxia didn't know whether Meng Qiuju could be sentenced, her attitude was clear. Even if she didn't go to jail, she would have a criminal record to affect her son and make her upset. Of course, a fine was also necessary to make their family lose all their assets. These people who didn't want to make money but wanted to exploit others would suffer in the future.
Lin Jianye and Huang Wanxia listened to Ai Xiaoxia's words and looked at her with eyes full of heartache. They really could not forgive the Ai family.
Meng Qiuju didn't know what criminal record or not was, but she was afraid of going to jail. In those days in the countryside, if someone in the family went to jail, the whole family would be despised. What's more, she was a woman. If she went to jail, her youngest son's marriage would definitely be ruined.
She was really scared this time, crying her eyes out: "What sin have I committed? Why is God treating me like this? I can't live anymore."
Lin Rui then said to Meng Qiuju, "Crying is useless. If you do something wrong, you must bear the legal responsibility. Return the things you stole from my house, or I will sue you for theft."
What else could Meng Qiuju say? She could only continue crying. She felt so wronged. Why were her good days coming to an end like this?
Ai Xiaoxia's ears hurt from listening to Meng Qiuju crying, and she said to Lin Jianye, "Dad, let's go back." There was no need to waste time here anyway, as their future was basically like that.
Only then did Ai Laibao finally figure out what was going on. He looked at Ai Xiaoxia in surprise and said, "You're not my sister?"
Ai Xiaoxia nodded: "Lin Zhu over there is your sister."
Guan Mingyue also understood at this time. It turned out that this was the backup plan that her mother-in-law often talked about. She thought it was a great thing, but now it seems not to be a good thing.
Lin Jianye said to Lin Zhu, "This is your home. I will transfer your household registration back to you as soon as possible, and I will have someone send your things back to you. From now on, we will no longer have the fate of father and daughter. You can take care of yourself."
Lin Zhu went over and hugged Lin Jianye's arm: "Dad, I don't ask for anything more. Just take me back and help me arrange my work. I promise not to bother you in the future."
She knew that without her father who was the director, it would be difficult for her to arrange her work.
Lin Jianye said: "My own daughter has not even finished high school and she doesn't have a job. I don't have the energy to care about other people's affairs now. I have supported you in your studies and allowed you to learn talents over the years. You already have a very good foundation. You need to walk the rest of the way on your own." He did not owe Lin Zhu anything, but now he felt indebted to his own daughter.
After saying that, Lin Jianye said to Huang Wanxia: "Let's take the children home."
At this time, Lin Zhu took out a pair of red-hot tongs from the brazier on the kang and put them against Ai Xiaoxia's face. She wanted to cripple Ai Xiaoxia and disfigure her. If her own life was ruined, Ai Xiaoxia would also have a bad life.
