After saying this, Li Ruhui asked about Gu Meicen. She had also heard about this matter. It was related to Zhou Jingye. They came here today not only to see the child, but also wanted to ask about this matter.
When Zheng Wangshu heard his mother-in-law asking about it, he did not hide it and told her the whole story in detail.
Upon hearing this, Li Ruhui cursed indignantly, "These black-hearted people, they don't even fear retribution. That child is truly pitiful. Bring him here for us to see. As his elder sister, you should be more mindful of him. He might have psychological problems, so you need to counsel him."
Li Ruhui has a quick temper, but she is actually a good person. She is tough on the outside but soft on the inside. Just listening to Zheng Wangshu's description, I feel sorry for Zheng Wangdong.
Zheng Wangshu felt warm in his heart and quickly nodded in agreement, "Don't worry, Mom. Now that the child is back, I will definitely not let him suffer any grievances at home."
For dinner, we had rice, some vegetables cooked by my mother-in-law, and some braised meat that I brought back in the afternoon. I mixed it all together with some chopped green onions and cilantro.
During the meal, the father and son poured some wine and chatted while Zheng Wangshu chatted with his mother-in-law about family matters.
At this time, the second branch of the Zhou family was gathering together to think of a solution. Now that the matter had been exposed, Gao Huilan felt ashamed to go out, always feeling that others were pointing fingers at her.
After returning, she couldn't help but say to her son, "Yun Yan, Xinyue's mother can't be a murderer. I heard that if the victim's family is willing to forgive, the matter can be handled at their discretion. At worst, the Gu family can pay some money. You go find Zhou Jingchuan and the others and say a few good words. See if you can ask Zheng Wangshu to help find Zheng Jianjun and release Xinyue's mother."
Gao Huilan had a wild idea that the matter would be over if the Zheng family did not pursue it. Little did she know that this was already a criminal case, and even if the Zheng family did not pursue it, the court would have to accept it.
Zhou Yunyan frowned. "Don't give me such bad advice. It's already like this. Can you still let him out? Are you dreaming?"
Gao Huilan slapped her thigh and said, "Give it a try, maybe it will work. After all, Zheng Wangshu used to live with you, and you two have been divorced for so long. You can't still hold a grudge against him. To put it bluntly, we are all family. Even if we break bones, we are still connected. Why would you want to kill someone like this?"
Hearing her mother-in-law say this, Zheng Xinyue felt a little touched. No matter what, this was on her side, so she quickly spoke out in agreement.
"Yun Yan, Mom is right. Let's go over and give it a try. At worst, we can just be humble and say a few nice words to them. When my mom is released, we can find another opportunity to deal with them later."
Zheng Xinyue grabbed Zhou Yunyan's arm and looked at him eagerly.
Zhou Yunyan was obviously silent. He thought about it and gradually became tempted. It was not for any other reason, but mainly because he wanted to see if Zheng Wangshu still had any feelings for him.
The two haven't seen each other for such a long time. Zheng Wangshu loved him so much in the past, so it stands to reason that he should be nostalgic now.
I went over and walked around in front of her to see how she reacted.
Thinking this in my mind, I nodded and agreed.
"Okay, let's go over there. After all, it's not a glorious thing. If your mother is sentenced, they will also be embarrassed."
After saying that, he added, "Xinyue, I'm doing this all for your sake. Otherwise, I wouldn't have humbled myself enough to apologize. You know my character very well."
Zheng Xinyue was so moved when she heard this that she held Zhou Yunyan's arm tightly with tears in her eyes.
"Yun Yan, I knew you were the best. I didn't make a mistake in choosing you."
Zhou Yunyan sneered in his heart, picked up two boxes of biscuits from home, and the two of them sneaked out.
When I arrived at the Zhou family's door and entered the yard, I heard a commotion in the house. When I got closer, I found that Li Ruhui and Zhou Jingye were also there.
Zheng Xinyue thought that it was just right. If the parents were there, she could say a few words and maybe they could actually change their minds.
Besides, wasn't Zheng Wangshu the one who listened to her mother the most? And no matter what, Gu Meiqin had taken care of her for so many years, she couldn't just ignore her feelings.
Zhou Yunyan straightened his clothes and made sure he looked handsome enough before pushing the door open and going in.
Originally, Zheng Wangshu and the others were very happy, with smiles on their faces. However, when they turned around and saw Zhou Yunyan and Zheng Xinyue, their good mood disappeared immediately.
"What a coincidence, uncle and aunt, you are here too."
Zhou Yunyan put the biscuits he brought on the ground with a smile on his face.
Zhou Jingye and Li Ruhui are elders after all. Although they don’t like their nephew, they have to be at least fair to him.
"Why are you here? Is there something wrong?"
Zheng Xinyue was not shy at all and directly pulled Zhou Yunyan to sit on a stool beside her.
"Something happened. Today I came to see my sister specifically because of my mother's matter."
Zheng Xinyue was anxious, and after she finished speaking, she quickly looked at Zheng Wangshu beside her.
"Sister, I know Mom did something wrong this time, but she raised you for so many years and loved you when you were a child. Who doesn't make mistakes in their life? If she is sentenced, it will be embarrassing for everyone. Go back and talk to Dad and ask him to contact the police and tell them that they will not pursue this matter. As for the remaining three people, they can punish them however they want, but just let Mom go. What do you think?"
Zheng Xinyue spoke to Zheng Wangshu in a rare nice tone today, but Zheng Wangshu wanted to spit in her face after hearing it.
At this time, Zhou Yunyan on the side also spoke. He suppressed his voice as if there was phlegm stuck in his throat, as if he was very deep.
"Wangshu, it's been so long since what happened between us. You should have let it go long ago. I came here today to talk to you about this. You said that if Xinyue's mother is really sentenced, she's a murderer. If we have such a relative, what will others think? What I mean is that we should think of a way. You should also be flexible and release the person. The dead are gone. What we should do is to live our lives well. Don't you agree?"
Zheng Wangshu's face looked very ugly, but Zhou Yunyan seemed not to notice and was still exuding his charm.
What Zheng Wangshu didn't expect was that before she could even open her mouth, Li Ruhui spoke first.
She threw down the chopsticks in her hand and said, "What are you two talking about? Killing someone means paying with your life. This has been a matter of course since ancient times. What does it matter if you're related to someone? Forget about ordinary people. Even if a leader breaks the law, he'll be dragged out to eat peanuts. You make it sound so easy, but aren't you the ones who will suffer? And you're still living a good life? How can someone live a good life when his own mother has been killed?"
Li Ruhui was already very angry about this matter, and now when she heard these two people stirring up trouble, she could no longer hold back and started cursing.
Zheng Wangshu couldn't help but applaud her mother-in-law in her heart. In fact, when she saw these two people just now, she had already guessed that these two people would definitely not say anything good.
