After being pushed into the water, rumors spread like wildfire. Her cousin, arguing and making a scene, refused to marry the husband from her past life, only because he saved Shen Jintao when she f...
Chapter 87: Shen Jianmin has affairs with both men and women?
Three more people came into the carriage behind. This time they were all quiet and didn't cause any trouble. Chen Jintao felt much more comfortable. She chatted with the old lady occasionally and slept when she was tired. It was cold now and there was not such a strong odor on the train. If she really couldn't stand it, she would fetch water and simply wash up in the toilet.
The train stopped with a rumble in Kun City, and it was time for Chen Jintao and the aunt and uncle to get off.
The food brought on the train had been eaten, but when Chen Jintao got off the train, she had an extra bag of dried meat and dried mountain products.
The old lady really liked the little girl, Chen Jintao, because she was pretty and spoke sweetly, and she felt that they got along very well, so she gave some of the local specialties that she had brought for her son to Chen Jintao.
Chen Jintao didn't have the nerve to accept such a valuable item, so she quickly waved her hands, "Auntie, I can't take it!"
No one’s money comes from the wind, especially meat, which is rarely seen throughout the year.
"It's okay, just keep it." Looking at the endless stream of people nearby, the old lady leaned close to Chen Jintao's ear and whispered, "Don't worry, there are a lot of wild animals in our area, and your uncle is a bit skilled, so we can often get meat. This jerky is roe deer meat, it's delicious!"
Chen Jintao didn't know what to say after hearing that. Seeing that the old lady was determined to give it to her, she had no choice but to exchange addresses with her.
"Auntie, there are a lot of seafood where my husband is serving in the army. Not many people pick up those things on the beach, but they are really delicious after being processed. I will send some to you when I return to the army. Don't refuse me, otherwise I won't accept your food."
The old lady smiled immediately and said, "Okay! Since you said so, how can I refuse it?"
So the two exchanged addresses and contact information. When they were about to part, the old lady still felt a little regretful, "What a pity, you are such a good girl, but you are married, otherwise I really want to introduce you to my son. My son has been in the army and has become stupid. He is almost an old bachelor and still hasn't found a partner. It's so annoying!"
Chen Jintao couldn't help but laugh, "Who knows, maybe there will be a surprise when you go to your son's unit this time?"
"That's what I want. Now, I just hope he can find a wife as soon as possible. It doesn't matter if it's a woman. Don't let him get used to it."
The two exchanged a few more pleasantries before parting.
Chen Jintao boarded the bus home. She didn't have much luggage, so she only brought some clothes for changing, which was enough for a suitcase. The suitcase was got for her by Huo Beichuan. It was a leather suitcase with a lot of space and could hold a lot of things.
As soon as she got on the bus, she attracted a lot of people's attention, and there was undoubtedly some surprise in their eyes.
After finding a seat by the window, Shen Jintao stared out the window, frowning slightly, because the telegram did not clearly state what had happened, only that something had happened to Shen Jianmin. Shen Jintao was really worried.
If the old lady hadn't been there to chat with her along the way, she would have probably been suffocated. Fortunately, nothing unexpected happened along the way, and she arrived at her destination in seven days.
When Chen Jintao arrived at Huaxi Brigade, she immediately attracted a lot of people's attention.
"Hey, Taozi is back. Are you back for your father's matter?"
"Tsk, you came all the way back here, you're really filial!"
"Hey, everything was fine before, but now this has happened, it's really going to be a disaster!"
"Taozi, you should go back and take a look. Your mom hasn't been in a good condition these past few days...your dad...ah..."
Some people were genuinely worried, while others were sarcastic. Shen Jintao did not stay for long and went straight to the Shen family.
The yard was quiet. She opened her voice and shouted, "Mom, Dongzi!"
There was some movement in the room, and Xu Xuemei, looking haggard, walked out of the room. When she saw Chen Jintao, she opened her mouth, but no sound came out.
"Mom!" Shen Jintao shouted again.
Xu Xuemei's tears began to fall, "Tao... Taozi... you're back..."
Her daughter was already married, and she didn't want to trouble her by asking her to come back from such a long distance.
"Mom! What's going on? Where's Dongzi?" Chen Jintao didn't see her younger brother and asked worriedly.
"I sent him to your grandmother's house. Something happened at home and I was afraid that he would be implicated."
Xu Xuemei sighed and stepped forward to take the luggage from her daughter.
Then the mother and daughter sat in the main room, and Xu Xuemei told Shen Jintao what had happened at home.
"How is that possible? My dad would never do something like that."
Chen Jintao absolutely didn't believe it. How could her father have an affair with someone else? She knew very well how much her father loved her mother.
What's more, she is a widow who is not even as good-looking as her mother, which is even more ridiculous.
"I know, I believe your father, but Widow Yang spoke with certainty, and she also...she even took out your father's underpants. This...this...so many people saw it..."
Chen Jintao's eyes widened when she heard this, "No? Just because of a pair of shorts? What does that prove? We can still say that the shorts were stolen by Widow Yang!"
"Besides, there is no grudge between our family and Widow Yang, right? Why did she do this? If she came after my dad, how could she make such a fuss? If she made a fuss, neither she nor my dad would be in any good situation. Shouldn't she quietly take my dad's pants and come to you, the wife?"
Shen Jintao's analysis was not without reason. If she could think of it, Xu Xuemei would certainly have thought of it too.
"Of course I know this, but she insisted that she and your father... insisted on it. The most important thing for us now is to find evidence and clear your father's name. Fortunately, apart from... Widow Yang, she didn't produce any other evidence. Otherwise, your father probably wouldn't have waited for you to come back and would have stayed on the farm now."
Chen Jintao frowned, thinking about the strangeness of the matter.
Shen Jianmin is recognized as a good guy in the team, which is why most of the team members voted for him after his grandfather resigned from the job of team leader.
Widow Yang had no conflicts with their family, so the other party shouldn't have targeted their family.
"Mom, my dad is the temporary team leader. Who is in charge of the team now after this incident?"
"Who else could it be? Of course it's your grandfather. But speaking of it, when Widow Yang started making a fuss, Shen Chunmiao and Lu Qingshan stood up. I saw that they seemed to be inciting the emotions of the team members. They wanted Shen Jianguo to temporarily take over your father's position. It was your grandfather who stood up and said that your second uncle was not that kind of material, so he temporarily took charge of the team again."
"Mom, it's very clear now, right? There's no way you didn't notice the problem?" Chen Jintao already had an answer in her mind.
