When cousin Lin Shuang's parents passed away, she was adopted by Lin Man's parents and became the family's darling.
Lin Man, on the other hand, became the sandwiched punching bag,...
Chapter 37: A Mess (Page 1/2)
After Qin Xiuying's persuasion, Ye Jianjun immediately calmed down. This matter could be a big deal or a small one. The most important thing now was to keep his son's job.
In order to prevent him from being caught and paraded through the streets, it seems his son can only go to that bitch Lin Shuang first.
He was completely out of his mind at the time. It was obvious that Lin Man was prettier and more educated than Lin Shuang, so why did he only care about the immediate interests and let the children marry off.
Everyone in the Lin family was struck by lightning, except Lin Man, who escaped. She heard from her son that Lin Shuang had a wound on his head and had no hair left.
The Lin family didn't have the money to buy her a job. She had almost nothing now, and it would definitely be a huge burden for their son to marry her.
But the marriage had to take place. The couple had been caught, and there was only one consequence if they didn't get married. Fortunately, the two families were engaged, otherwise it would have been difficult.
Ye Jianjun and Lin Guosheng entered the interrogation room at the same time in the dark. They were both very smart and deliberately greeted each other in a friendly manner when they entered.
Huang Xianwei saw how familiar the two of them were, and it seemed that the two families were really planning a marriage. "As parents, can you two explain what's going on?"
Ye Jianjun shamelessly explained to Huang Xianwei, "Our two children are engaged, the betrothal gifts have been agreed upon, and the two families have had a meal together, so we are considered married."
What he meant was that the children of the two families were in a de facto marriage, just like the way people in the countryside get married, where they are considered married after paying a betrothal gift and having a meal together.
Ye Jianjun never mentioned the matter of getting a marriage certificate. If it was possible not to get one, he would try not to do so. It would be fine even if Lin Shuang moved into their Ye family.
Lin Guosheng was completely confused. This was not what Ye Jianjun said before he came in. They clearly hadn't reached an agreement on the betrothal gift just now. Wasn't this just a blatant lie?
Huang Xianwei asked Lin Guosheng, "Have your two families had dinner together and agreed on the betrothal gift?"
“After some discussion, the Ye family said they would buy a watch for my daughter and 600 yuan in cash.
Two sets of clothes, we'll prepare three quilts, four towels, two washbasins, two kettles, a pair of aluminum buckets..."
Lin Guosheng also started to lie openly. Seeing Ye Jianjun's face darken, he continued, "If you don't believe me, ask Comrade Ye Jianjun if they agreed to give us 600 yuan as a betrothal gift."
Huang Xianwei asked Ye Jianjun, "Comrade Ye, are you really planning to give the Lin family 600 yuan as a betrothal gift? Since both your children are discussing marriage, I have something to say.
Marriage is not something that can be done by just sitting down and talking. You must get a marriage certificate to be considered a real couple. Otherwise, they are considered adulterers."
Ye Jianjun argued, "Many couples in rural areas don't even have marriage certificates, and they already have children."
"Comrade Ye, this is the city. City people need to get a marriage certificate when they get married."
Ye Chen was afraid of being arrested and paraded through the streets, so he quickly came out to explain, "Section Chief Huang, I'm going to get a marriage certificate with my fiancée tomorrow."
"You definitely need to get a marriage certificate. How can you face being caught without one? What about the children?
And Comrade Lin Shuang, you should pay attention to your image. It's unbecoming of you to go to a gay dormitory and mess around before you're married, and even make such a loud noise. Someone reported it to me. You have no shame, but I do."
Lin Shuang's face flushed red as she cried, "Let's talk about dating and have dinner together..."
"Are you guys eating there? Who eats in bed? It's a gay dormitory, women are not allowed to go up there."
Lin Shuang said: "Lin Man went to Dr. Huo's dormitory."
There's only one doctor named Huo in the hospital. Could this Lin Shuang be referring to Huo Qingci? Others filed a marriage report first and now have a marriage certificate. So what's wrong with them living together as a couple?

"You said Comrade Lin Man went to Dr. Huo's office? They are a real couple, so what's wrong with living together?
Regardless of whether you are going to get your marriage certificate tomorrow, you must write a letter of apology tonight before you can leave."
If we let them go like this, and then everyone follows suit and lives together without getting married, wouldn't that be chaos?
It was already ten o'clock when Ye Chen and Lin Shuang were released. Lin Guosheng and Zhou Ping had left long ago. They still had injuries on their heads, which hurt at night.
Originally, their family became the laughing stock of the entire hospital because they were struck by lightning. Now, because Lin Shuang went to Ye Chen's dormitory and climbed onto his bed to have sex, they were called to the interrogation room for investigation. Now they had no face to continue staying here waiting for Lin Shuang.
The hospital still doesn't know how to spread the news about the Lin family tomorrow. It is estimated that these incidents will make everyone in the military hospital laugh for half a year.
Back at the inpatient department, behind closed doors, Lin Guosheng began to scold Zhou Ping. "I told you Lin Shuang was a loser, but you didn't believe me. You took the initiative to offer yourself to my husband. If our two families weren't really planning a marriage, she would have been arrested and paraded through the streets like this."
"Why are you blaming Shuangshuang? It's still that Ye Chen who is dishonest."
"Why are others so dishonest? Didn't you hear Section Chief Huang say that it was your daughter who took the initiative to run over there?
She bought a plate of braised pork, a plate of peanuts, and a bottle of white wine. What do you think she wants to do?"
“Whatever she wants to do, she must want to marry Marven Ye. Now we don’t have extra money to buy her a job, so we force her to find a way out on her own.”
"She wanted to marry Ye Chen, so she had to take the initiative to climb into his bed, and she was caught red-handed? Do you know where she was hiding when she was caught?"
"Where is he hiding? Under the bed?"
"A single wardrobe! Once we receive the betrothal gifts and marry her off, we won't be able to go anywhere with her."
The Ye family looked down on Lin Shuang, and he knew it very well. How long she could stay in the Ye family after marrying in would depend on whether she could conceive. If she gave birth to a boy, at least she would have a place in the family. If she gave birth to a girl, she would not have a place in the family.
Ye Jianjun and Qin Xiuying would definitely find a way to force them to divorce. He knew that Ye Jianjun was a profit-driven and realistic bastard.
They are all accountants. All he cares about is money and power. Social skills don't work for him. The bastard even wants to plot against the Lin family and marry a daughter-in-law without spending money. No way.
"Our household registration certificate is still being processed. Ye Chen needs my consent to get a marriage certificate if she doesn't have a 600 yuan betrothal gift. We won't give her the household registration certificate."
"Nowadays, wedding gifts in the city are usually three or four hundred yuan. Isn't six hundred yuan a bit too much? What if the Ye family doesn't agree?"
"If the Ye family doesn't agree, Ye Chen can forget about doing his job. If we sue him for hooliganism, he'll have to go to jail and eat peanuts!"
"If we sue her, Shuangshuang's reputation will be ruined. If she fails, she might even be arrested and paraded through the streets."
"The Ye family will not sit idly by, what are you worried about?"
The Lin family is in a mess now, so Lin Guosheng just gave it a try. It is better to fulfill himself than to fulfill others. As long as he has money, sacrificing Lin Shuang's happiness is nothing.
The Lin family has raised her for so many years, so it is only right that they receive some betrothal gifts.
Didn't his good wife prepare the dowry he mentioned for Lin Shuang a month ago? He was finally doing his duty to his deceased sister-in-law.
