In her past life, Lin Jianxue didn’t find out until the day she died that she had raised her husband’s white moonlight’s child for eighteen years. Even worse—her infertility? Caused by the ...
Lin Jianxue picked out two sets of durable khaki long-sleeved shirts and trousers, and a light blue polyester shirt. Just as she was about to ask the salesperson for the checkout, her eyes flicked to a row of brightly colored fabrics and ready-made garments hanging nearby.
She suddenly thought of Fu Zhewei's younger sister, Fu Qingqing, who was young but very understanding.
Fu Qingqing should be fifteen years old this year, and her figure... doesn't seem to be much different from mine now?
Thoughts raced as Lin Jianxue pointed to a light yellow tasseled shirt and a knee-length khaki skirt and said to the salesperson, "Auntie, I want this shirt and this skirt too."
Then she saw a pink shirt with a small white collar and thought it was suitable for a little girl, so she took it down as well.
Chen Wu was looking at the cloth, wondering whether he should buy a few more feet of cloth to make a new pajamas for his daughter. Seeing that his daughter had picked out a few pieces of clothes that were obviously not her Japanese style, he was a little surprised: "Xiaoxue, these pieces..." The colors are too bright, and that skirt is not convenient to wear to the countryside.
Lin Jianxue smiled and stuffed all the clothes into Chen Wu's arms: "Mom, I think they look good. Please help me check out!"
Although Chen Wu didn't find it strange, she thought her daughter was so interested and the family didn't need the money, so she didn't ask any more questions. She took the clothes, asked the salesperson to issue a receipt, and went to the cashier to pay. Little did she know that these beautiful clothes were not bought by her daughter at all.
After buying a lot of things, the mother and daughter walked back satisfied.
When the car drove to the vicinity of the People's Court, we could see from a distance that a large group of people had gathered in the square in front of the court, three layers deep inside and three layers deep outside, as if something big had happened.
One could faintly hear the cries of a woman and the discussions of people around.
Chen Wu subconsciously tightened his grip on the steering wheel and frowned slightly.
She calmly turned the steering wheel and prepared to go around the fork in the road.
"Mom, wait."
Lin Jianxue, who had been quietly looking out the window, suddenly spoke.
Chen Wu's heart skipped a beat, and he paused. He forced a faint, uneasy smile on his face and hurriedly made an excuse: "What's wrong, Xiaoxue? I... I think I remembered that when I went out, I seemed to have forgotten to turn off the gas stove in the kitchen! Oh no! This can't be careless! We have to go back and check!"
Lin Jianxue turned her head and looked at her mother quietly with clear eyes, with a hint of understanding in her eyes.
She shook her head slightly, her tone firm: "Mom, I remember I turned it off for you. I even checked it before leaving."
The smile on Chen Wu's face froze.
Lin Jianxue raised her slender finger and pointed to the figure of a woman kneeling on the ground in the center of the square not far away, her hair disheveled, pounding the ground and crying bitterly. Her voice was still quiet, but with a hint of coldness: "Mom, look, isn't that... Tong Caihe?"
Looking in the direction of his daughter's finger, Shen Wu's heart sank suddenly!
It's not her!
Tong Caihe was wearing an old dress that had been washed white, her hair was disheveled, and her face was covered with snot and tears. She was crying heartbreakingly and kowtowing towards the court building, attracting the pointing and comment of the onlookers around her.
A feeling of regret suddenly rose in Chen Wu's heart!
Today is the day when the trial and sentencing of those two beasts Jiang Yubai and Jiang Yuning will be held.
Before leaving, Lao Lin repeatedly warned her not to go near the court today, so as not to see people she shouldn't see and make Xiaoxue unhappy.
But unfortunately, my daughter saw it!
Looking at his daughter's overly quiet profile, Chen Wu didn't know what to say for a moment, and only felt his palms sweating.
