Chapter 433: Making Trouble and Asking for Case to be Withdrawn
Qin Shulan: "You already have so many clothes, why do you want to buy new ones? You know the situation at home, how can we have extra money to buy you new clothes?"
The last time Wei Jingfen had a fight with her, she didn't want to pay the living expenses for the two children. It was only when she went to the factory and made a scene that the factory leaders forced Wei Jingfen to pay.
A family of five, three adults and two children, lived on the eight yuan given by Wei Jingfen and the two or three yuan she earned from pasting paper boxes. How could they have extra money to buy her new clothes?
Besides, the little nutrition money given by the Lu family had long been spent.
Lin Siyu: "My clothes are too big for me. Besides, if I don't dress myself up properly, how can I find Gu Huai and reconcile with him?"
Qin Shulan looked at her daughter and frowned. She really didn't look good like this.
"If clothes are too big, you can have them altered. It's better not to buy clothes. But you can buy facial cream."
Facial cream can be bought for one or two yuan, but you can’t buy this new piece of clothing without eight or nine yuan.
Lin Siyu frowned in dissatisfaction.
"I'll take you to the state-owned store to buy some facial cream tomorrow. You've been staying at home for a month or so. You need to go out and see your naked body to get better."
Qin Shulan is no longer afraid that Lin Siyu will be embarrassed if she is seen by the neighbors.
Anyway, their family has already lost all face. As long as they are shameless, other people's opinions will not be so important.
At 10:30 in the morning, Zhixia Clothing Store was crowded with people coming in and out to buy clothes.
Since the spring and summer clothing store across the street was closed down, not only have the lost customers returned, but it has also attracted more new customers.
Everyone knows that the clothes in Zhixia Clothing Store are of good quality, which is beyond the reach of state-owned garment factories. This is also certified by old tailors with forty to fifty years of experience in garment making.
I no longer go to state-owned stores to buy clothes, I just go to Zhixia.
Yu Hui, Bai Chunhua and Gu Qiuyu were outside greeting guests and were too busy to handle everything.
"Oh, how can I live like this?"
An old lady with gray hair, about sixty or seventy years old, sat at the door of Zhixia Clothing Store, swinging her thighs and crying.
"The people in this clothing store are trying to kill me."
The old lady's cries instantly attracted passers-by and customers in the store.
"Mom." Gu Qiuyu called out with a frown.
Yu Huichao looked outside, put down the guest in his hands, and walked towards the door.
"Old lady, what happened? Why do the people in this clothing store want to kill you?" A passerby asked the old lady.
The old lady pointed at Yu Hui and said, "They, they caused my son to be arrested by the police. I lost my husband in middle age and have only this one son. If he goes to jail, I can't live anymore. I might as well just die here."
As the old lady spoke, she was about to bang her head against the door.
The kindhearted people grabbed her and said, "Don't hold me back. My son has been arrested. What's the point of me living?"
Yu Hui: "Old man, how did we cause your son to be arrested by the police? Please explain clearly."
The old lady glared at Yu Hui angrily, "You were jealous that my son took over your family's business. First, you reported my son's clothing store, causing it to be closed down, and then you had my son arrested by the police."
"If you don't go to the Public Security Bureau to withdraw the case and ask the Public Security Bureau to release my son, I will die in front of your store." The old lady threatened, without mentioning what her son had done.
When those who didn't know the truth heard this, they began to blame Yu Hui and the others.
"Hey, she looks so good, but how can she be so vicious? Is it normal to have competition in business? Not only did they report and shut down her store, but they also had the police arrest her. They're trying to kill her completely."
"That's right, this old lady is so pitiful. Her son has been arrested. How is she going to live from now on?"
Gu Qiuyu pointed at the old woman and cursed, "You're talking nonsense! Your son and daughter-in-law opened a shop across the street and copied all their clothes from us. They even sold them cheaper than us, stealing our business, and we didn't bother with them. It was because they made inferior clothes, cheated consumers by selling inferior goods, that they were reported and their shop was shut down. We weren't the ones who reported them."
"This matter really has nothing to do with Renzhixia Clothing Store. It was after Chunxia Clothing Store exposed the quality problems of the clothes that some people went to the clothing store to return the goods, but they refused to do so, so people went to the Industrial and Commercial Bureau to report it." The barber shop master next door spoke up for fairness.
Those who failed to return the goods and went to the Industrial and Commercial Bureau to report happened to be regular customers of their barber shop.
Gu Qiuyu: "Did you hear that? Your son's store was shut down, he deserved it, it has nothing to do with us."
The old lady said: "Even if the store was not closed down because of you, it was you who had the police arrested my son."
Yu Hui found it quite amusing. "Old lady, if your son hadn't committed any crime, would the Public Security Bureau have someone arrested him? How could I have such great power that I could just let the Public Security Bureau arrest someone so easily?"
The old lady pointed at Yu Hui and said, "Even if you have the guts to get the police to arrest someone, your husband is a high-ranking officer in the army. It's just a matter of your word to get the police to arrest someone."
When everyone heard this, their eyes changed when they looked at Yu Hui.
Lin Siyu and her mother Qin Shulan bought facial cream at a state-owned store. When they heard that there was a piece of clothing that was nice and cheap on the street behind, they dragged her mother over to take a look.
As soon as they reached the end of the street, they saw a lot of people gathered in front of a store, so the mother and daughter walked over curiously.
Yu Hui said sternly, "It's true that I'm a military family member, but I absolutely wouldn't use my power as a man to take your son to the police station. Why was your son arrested? It's because he deliberately set a fire. He threw two torches soaked in kerosene into my backyard in the middle of the night."
"Luckily, someone in my shop was on night shift and discovered it in time, preventing a major disaster!"
The old lady refused to admit it. "You are slandering me. My son didn't set the fire at all. If my son did, how come your store is fine?"
Lin Siyu stood behind the crowd, looking at Yu Hui, who was standing at the door of the store in a glamorous manner, and the clothing store behind her that was full of beautiful clothes, her eyes were bloodshot with jealousy.
This was the life she was supposed to have.
Qin Shulan also found out that her ex-son-in-law's current wife actually opened such a large clothing store in the city. How much money must it be worth?
"Old lady, are you deaf?" Gu Qiuyu's temper was not that good. She never respected the old people who were immoral and unreasonable.
"My mother just explained it clearly. It was only because our store security discovered it in time that a disaster was avoided. If it had really burned, your son would not have been in jail, but would have been shot."
Yu Hui said, "Don't make a scene here. The police have already said that your son has admitted that he mistakenly thought we were the ones who reported his clothing store, so he deliberately took revenge and set the fire in the middle of the night when no one was around."
The old lady was being unreasonable and nagging, "No matter what, your store is doing fine and nothing has happened. You should drop the case and release my son. If you don't, you're just refusing to let me live."
