Chapter 241: Zhao Laosi Fails the Exam
Lin Yuzhu smiled when she saw the expressions of the street office staff.
Then she said: "There is really no need for mediation. They are not my husband's biological parents. They are just adoptive parents paid by my mother-in-law.
We originally thought that although they received compensation, they still raised us and we should treat them as relatives during festivals. We didn't expect that they hated us to this extent and started to slander us without any reason.
Our hearts are not made of iron, and we can also feel heartbroken. There is no kinship between us and the Zhao family now. We don’t like each other, and it’s best if we don’t contact each other in the future.”
As she spoke, she explained Zhao Yanshu's life experience again.
Zhao's mother heard this and argued, "Bah, everyone knows about Zhao Yanshu's affairs. We don't need to slander him. Everyone can see it clearly. You don't need to say these nonsense. With what Zhao Yanshu did, how can he have the nerve to contact us?"
The people from the subdistrict office understood what was said by both parties and now knew who they were. After all, they lived nearby and had heard about the affairs of the Zhao family. They also knew about the recent rumors about Zhao Yanshu. However, as state officials, they certainly would not follow the crowd. Although they were curious, they just looked at him twice more.
He also realized that his previous worries were just a false alarm. Now that they were determined, and considering the mutual hatred between the two families, he stopped trying to persuade them.
I just wrote three certificates of severing ties and asked Zhao's father, Zhao's mother and Zhao Yanshu to put their fingerprints on them, one for each of them. The remaining copy was filed in the street office, and that was it.
After finishing, Lin Yuzhu and the other person thanked the people from the street office and left without even looking at the Zhao family. Even Zhao Yanshu didn't say a word after listening to Lin Yuzhu from beginning to end. No matter how the Zhao family glared at him, he remained unmoved.
This attitude made the Zhao family, who clearly felt that they had done the right thing, feel like they had punched cotton and were extremely frustrated.
Seeing this, Boss Zhao said angrily: "I should have punched the third brother a few times. Because of him, our family has been disgraced these past few days. I have to keep my head down when I go to work, for fear that others will know that I am the brother of a traitor."
After hearing this, Zhao's father scolded him: "Okay, don't mention him. There will be no third child in the family from now on. He has nothing to do with the family anymore. Don't mention him anymore."
"Yes," Zhao's mother also said, "From now on, there will be only three sons in our family. It's better to break off the marriage. He will get his comeuppance sooner or later. I'll call the fourth son and tell him later."
Thinking of this, Zhao's mother did not delay and went to call Zhao Laosi without returning home.
Zhao Laosi is currently reviewing at his father-in-law's house. He was very unwilling at first when he was sent back to the countryside, but he also knew that there was no way to change it. He could only carefully please his father-in-law's family and let them take him in to review at home.
But he didn't expect that not long after that, the father-in-law received a letter from his daughter-in-law, and then several of his wife's brothers went to the city without telling him.
When he came back, he brought his frail wife and fragile child with him. His brother-in-law beat him up severely, and he also knew what had happened.
He regretted not telling his mother to be gentle with Wu Chunni. Fortunately, Wu Chunni was on his side and interceded for him. He also persuaded his father-in-law with his eloquence and got the opportunity to study for the college entrance examination again.
He finally took the college entrance examination this time, but failed. Although he was disappointed, he did not give up.
At this moment, he doesn't know that he won't be able to take the exam next time, and he is still studying hard with the hope that he will definitely be able to get into university next time.
Fortunately, his father-in-law was optimistic about him and wanted the girl to follow him to the city to enjoy a good life, so he didn't force him to work and allowed him to concentrate on his studies.
When Zhao Laosi heard the village loudspeaker saying that there was a phone call for him, he guessed that something must have happened at home, so he quickly ran to the brigade headquarters.
