Sun Miao was embarrassed, somewhat unwilling to hear this: "Dad, what's wrong with Junzi? Haven't you and Mom been quite satisfied with his behavior over the years?"
Glancing at his daughter who hadn't turned around yet, Sun Qizhi felt even more helpless: "Silly girl, think about what you just said from a different perspective."
"For so many years, Lin Jun has been able to satisfy such difficult people as your mother and me. Do you still think he is innocent?"
"He's not as good-looking as his brother, and he doesn't have the capital to attract lesbians based on appearance alone. So how did he make you insist on marrying him despite how poor his family was and how chaotic their situation was?"
"How did he make Chen Zhi, who comes from a wealthy family and has plenty of good blind dates, marry anyone but him?"
Sun Qizhi chuckled: "So if you say he is truly innocent... you two believe it, but I don't."
This analysis left Sun Miao and Duan Qinya speechless.
Duan Qinya hesitated, "But...but we checked before, and we didn't find any evidence of Lin Jun being dishonest even after a long investigation."
Sun Qizhi: "You also said that we are investigating whether he is dishonest. We can only find out whether he is dishonest. We can't find out more."
For example, what did Lin Jun say to Shen Zhi in private, or whether the two of them had any ambiguous relationship...how to investigate such things?
The best they can do is to find out whether the son-in-law has betrayed his daughter. Most of the time, as long as they don't catch him cheating, they won't be able to convict him.
After listening to her husband's analysis, Duan Qinya looked at her daughter worriedly, and saw that her daughter, who had just calmed down with great difficulty, was sitting there blankly, tears still flowing, but this time the tears... were silent.

In the evening, in front of the communal pool in the compound, Lin Zhan was carefully washing grapes with flour.
Lu Yang came back from outside and passed by. Seeing this, he said jokingly: "Oh, you washed it carefully. What's the difference between you and Zhang Fei embroidering?"
This "show" had never been seen before. Lu Yang guessed who Lin Zhan was "offering tribute" to by washing the grapes in an instant.
"Before we got married, I thought you were quite manly. You could scare your brother just by raising your eyelids. How come you became a henpecked man after we got married?"
"You're washing grapes in this freezing weather just to please your wife," he teased. "Why, did you do something wrong outside? Are you trying to show off in front of your wife when you come back?"
Lin Zhan didn't want to pay attention to him and just replied calmly: "Brother Yang, do you want water?"
Subtext: If you don't need water, don't hang around here and complain.
Lu Yang was in a good mood today, and he didn't care seeing him like this: "You are just thin-skinned. You feel embarrassed when I tease you."
"Okay, take your time washing. I never realized that you are such a loving wife."
As they were talking, Ye Wei came out with a group of children to get some water to boil. Zhang Guifang started cursing at them, saying that Ye Wei was a spendthrift and always used hot water to wash things. Why couldn't she use cold water when there was already cold water available?
Lin Zhan raised his eyebrows, rinsed the grapes in his basin one last time, picked them up and left without even letting the two precious children of the Lu family look at the grape stalks.
When passing by Lu Yang, he imitated Lu Yang's tone and teased: "Brother Yang, our family is so poor now? You can't even bear to spend money on washing clothes or boiling water for your wife?"
"Tsk, now that I compare myself to you, I really am as loving to my wife as you said just now. At least when the weather gets cold, I don't need my wife to do the washing."
Glancing at Ye Wei's red, frozen hands, Lin Zhan thought it would be best to boil another pot of hot water for his wife later so she wouldn't run out of water...
"My wife's hands are precious, so she uses the most expensive vanishing cream. She can't let cold water freeze her hands."
Listening to Lin Zhan's words and looking at his back, Ye Wei subconsciously tucked her exposed hands back into her sleeves...
"What are you looking at?"
A hoarse and angry voice sounded from behind Ye Wei.
Ever since Zhang Guifang had a quarrel with her eldest daughter-in-law, she was probably laughing at the old neighbors, and she also saw that her old rival's family was getting better and better.
She was so upset that her throat became inflamed and swollen that it never went down.
There are two daughters-in-law in the family. One points at her nose and scolds her, not taking her seriously, while the other is listless and full of schemes, and she feels uneasy when she is not watching over her.
In short, they are all here to collect debts.
Glancing in the direction Ye Wei had just been staring at, Zhang Guifang's expression darkened. "What are you looking at?"
Knowing how difficult her mother-in-law was, Ye Wei looked at Lu Yang for help, but the latter had a cold expression and had no intention of helping his wife out of the predicament.
Lu Yang is such an arrogant person.
In his opinion, a scoundrel like Lin Zhan was not even as good as a finger of his, and his "good wife" was actually stunned by the sight of such a second-rate guy.
Oh.
This is not taking him seriously.
She said it nicely at first, saying that she liked him, admired him, and was willing to bear the infamy in exchange for marrying him, but when it came to life... Lu Yang smacked his lips... It was actually just like that.
Ye Wei didn't show how enthusiastic she was towards him, whether in bed or out of bed. As soon as she met him, she acted like a bullied young wife, looking pitiful as if she had been bullied by his family.
He found this attitude somewhat interesting at first, but after a while... it became really annoying.
It’s fun to act pitiful for two days, but if you act too much...is it fake?
Looking at him, he wondered how cunning Ye Wei was.
If Ye Wei was really as weak, pitiful and helpless as she pretended to be, she wouldn't have been so cruel and ruthless in the beginning just to have a good life by exchanging brides.
The next day after the kiss, he still wanted to throw the dirty water and blame on Lin Zhan's wife.
What a thousand-year-old fox trying to pretend to be a rabbit with him. Not only does he make the whole family restless, but he can't even take care of the children. The two children cry all day long.
This life is so boring.
Lu Yang didn’t understand why his mother had to force him to marry a new wife. Was it just to torture each other?
He had a lot of grievances against Ye Wei, and just now, she saw him standing there, but Ye Wei was staring at Lin Zhan and flirting with him, as if he didn't exist.
In this situation, it would be strange if Lu Yang could help her out.
He remained silent, but his two children rushed to complain.
Erbao: "Grandma, stepmother is here to see Uncle Lin!"
Dabao: "Yes, stepmother just stared at Uncle Lin without blinking, I was stunned. Oh, stepmother likes Uncle Lin!"
Ye Wei was so frightened by the two naughty kids that she almost couldn't hold the kettle. She didn't care about being nice and gentle at this moment. She was afraid that her mother-in-law would misunderstand her, so she quickly warned the two naughty kids in a serious tone.
"Big Treasure, Second Treasure, what did Mom teach you? Didn't I ever tell you not to talk nonsense?"
Erbao thought he was being scolded, so he sniffed and was about to cry.
