Chapter 185 Shackles
Finally, it was her three uncles and three uncles who went together to look for Xu Wenbo.
Many of her elders have good status, including train drivers, postal workers, publishing houses, and government agency workers.
They did as Hu Xiumei said and did not mention divorce, but instead put pressure on Xu Wenbo.
Xu Wenbo naturally nodded in agreement, saying that it was all misunderstandings and that the couple had just said something angry during a quarrel. He also patted his chest and assured that he had never had any other thoughts and would never embezzle the Hu family's ancestral home.
After two or three times of this, Xu Wenbo finally became obedient. He no longer mentioned the matter of the ancestral home, nor did he hit Hu Xiumei again, but he remained very cold.
As for Hu Xiumei's mother-in-law and sister-in-law, they are still mean as they should be, but they dare not go too far in front of outsiders.
Hu Xiumei had her hands free and went to look for evidence as Lin Anan had instructed.
This is not a glorious thing, and family members don't dare to help openly, but they are still willing to lend a hand in secret and will do their best to provide convenience.
As for the detective... Hu Xiumei had no idea what it was, and she couldn't find it after asking around. Finally, she turned to her cousin, who was the most powerful one in the family, and asked him to help her investigate Xu Wenbo in detail.
That cousin has no other skills, he just likes to do small things all day long and make money from speculation. Although he is a scoundrel, he has a wide network of contacts.
"Look at these photos. My cousin specially borrowed a camera from someone and took great pains to take them! But many of them have been exposed and cannot be used, which is a pity." Hu Xiumei pushed a stack of photos in front of Lin Anan.
Lin Anan opened her mouth when she saw this...
You know what, Xu Wenbo is quite good at playing.
There are at least three or four women, young and mature, each with her own charm.
The photos were well taken, with arms around each other and even kissing.
Just this photo is enough to charge him with hooliganism!
Hu Xiumei took out another stack of photos and said, "He also secretly resold bus company tickets in huge quantities, all recorded in an account book.
You taught me to look through the house carefully, and sure enough, I found this account book by accident. I took photos of the contents and put the original account book back, fearing that he would find it. "
Lin Anan took it, read it carefully, and her eyes widened.
"Sold, sold for nearly ten thousand yuan?"
"Well, a total of nine thousand seven hundred and fifty-six dollars, all from the money he made from selling blank tickets over the years."
“That’s too much!”
Hu Xiumei's voice was a little angry. "He looks like a decent person on weekdays. Who would have thought that he was doing such things behind the scenes? I have been with him for so many years, and I didn't notice anything at all."
"It's not too late to find out now. These evidences are enough to have him shot..."
"Yes! In addition, he used his connections several times to allocate staff rooms to female subordinates. See."
Hu Xiumei took out another document, which had everything clearly recorded on it, which naturally included Jiang Tong's bungalow. This was only part of what she had found out.
"You did the right thing. Keep all the evidence. It's almost time to close the net."
In fact, with these evidences, it doesn’t matter whether Lin Zihuai testifies or not.
Lin Anan really didn't want Lin Zihuai to get involved in this mess, but Chu Mingzhou was trying to reason with her...
Hu Xiumei seemed to understand her dilemma. "An An, I came to you last time because I was desperate. But now, I am sure. If you don't want your brother to come, then don't let him come. It's okay."
Lin Anan pursed her lips and pondered for a moment, "Wait until my lover comes back, I will discuss it with him and give you an answer then."
"Okay, I'll listen to you. This time, it's all thanks to you. If it weren't for you, I probably wouldn't be able to survive."
Lin Anan waved her hands quickly, "Don't say that, I didn't do anything, this is all your own fault."
Hu Xiumei also knew her personality. She didn't like to hear too much talk. "I will thank you very much when I solve this problem."
“No, no.”
The two also discussed some details, such as how to deal with Xu Wenbo's possible counterattack, and what strategy to use if he finds out that the evidence was secretly photographed.
Lin Anan suggested that Hu Xiumei stay with relatives for a few days, finding a family with many men. It would only be a matter of a few days anyway.
Xu Wenbo is too dangerous. What if he finds out the truth and chooses to fight to the death?
Moreover, those people in the Xu family are not easy to deal with. Now they have taken root in the Hu family, and it will be a big problem to drive them out later.
Hu Xiumei nodded repeatedly in agreement.
After Hu Xiumei left, Lin Anan leaned back in the rocking chair, rocking from time to time, but she couldn't calm down for a long time.
On the one hand, I feel gratified for Hu Xiumei's growth. From a weak and submissive woman, she has been forced to take the initiative and defend herself.
On the other hand, she is left with helplessness. She also knows that in this era, there are many women like Hu Xiumei who are trapped in unhappy marriages. They face many difficulties, not only pressure from family, but also the constraints of social concepts.
"Women, bondage, transformation from cocoon to butterfly..."
An idea suddenly came to Lin Anan's mind. She tapped the ground lightly, steadied the rocking chair, stood up and walked into the house.
Take out a pen and paper and write down your inspirations one by one.
The pen in her hand danced rapidly on the paper, and she poured out her thoughts on women, constraints, and growth, turning them into vivid words.
Finally, two words were left at the end: "Shackles".
Lin Anan put down her pen, picked up the notebook, looked through it carefully, and was very satisfied.
In the form of stories, it conveys the belief in female power, breaking free from constraints, and bravely transforming.
This book has been included in the new writing plan and, together with "Spine", will serve as the main line of this year's writing.
There will never be a shortage of readers for works on female themes. As television becomes more popular and film and television adaptations spread, they can be adapted into movies and will be very pleasing works.
Of course, interests are important, but bottom lines and ideals are more important.
At this moment, footsteps were heard outside the house. Lin Anan looked up and saw that it was Chu Mingzhou who came back.
He folded his umbrella and placed it lightly against the door.
His eyes met Lin Anan's, and his expression softened. "What are you doing?"
Seeing him coming back, Lin Anan quickly stood up and greeted him, "Ming Zhou."
He let out another "hiss" and his legs went weak, almost falling down.
My attention was distracted by other things just now, so I didn't feel anything. But now that I've relaxed, I realize my legs are as soft as cotton. I guess my thighs are still swollen...
Chu Mingzhou took a step forward and dragged the man, with worry flashing in his eyes, "Are you okay?"
Lin Anan glanced at him and said, "What do you think? Let's switch and you try it."
Chu Mingzhou paused, his ears inexplicably burning, "Well, I'll lie down next time."
Lin Anan:?
Is that what she meant?
What are you talking about!
How come the upright Captain Chu's head is full of obscene garbage?
Lin Anan pushed him away slightly and said, "I have something to tell you."
Chu Mingzhou bent down, picked up the man and put him on the kang. "Let's talk later. I'll apply medicine on you."
"Hey, hey, hey, that's not necessary! Stay away from me, I don't need you to apply medicine."
"Chu Mingzhou..."
