Chapter 206: The Story of the Previous Life
Although Ma Lian tried her best to deny the incident, the investigators would not let the matter go just because of Ma Lian's one-sided statement. They found medical staff to confirm the condition of Ma Lian's injuries.
Naturally, the medical staff would not hide anything and directly explained Ma Lian's condition. The wounds on her body were indeed knife wounds, and there was a piece of flesh missing from the wounds on both thighs.
Facts speak louder than words, and Ma Lian, the party involved, cannot decide to withdraw the case.
So the investigators continued to track down the case and found out that the people who harmed Ma Lian were her biological parents, younger brother, and sister-in-law. They were blinded by money and when they saw someone coming to their door with a big gift of gold to beg for a piece of meat, they couldn't resist the temptation and had improper thoughts about Ma Lian.
Then they investigated the cause and the truth came to light. Ma Lianhua used the money to create a good destiny for herself and also spread the word that her flesh and blood had the effect of curing diseases.
You have advertised yourself like this and packaged yourself as Tang Monk, so don't blame others for coveting your flesh and blood. This is all your own fault.
After finding out the reason, everyone realized that this was a mistress who was deliberately trying to destroy other people's families.
Then unfortunately, it was discovered that Xia's parents were poisoned by Ma Lian, and these two people were the first to drink the Chinese medicine boiled with Ma Lian's blood.
Although they did not force Ma Lian to do so, when they learned that Ma Lian had bled, they actually drank the medicinal soup. This is feudal superstition.
Old Mrs. Xia was frightened by the word "feudal superstition". Thinking of her own family's superstition about Feng Shui and the many strange Feng Shui arrangements they had made at home, she was worried that the investigators would find out, so she hurriedly wanted to destroy them. However, she ended up losing more than she gained and instead exposed the clues, and was caught red-handed. Now the couple might face jail time.
Xia Ting'an was shocked when he found out, how could this matter become such a big deal?
He knew that his parents were superstitious about Feng Shui. It had always been the case that officials would not investigate unless the people reported the case. How did it come to a point where someone had to come to investigate?
When Xia Ting'an asked, he heard Ma Lian's name again. He gnashed his teeth in hatred, but said quickly: "Comrade, it is indeed wrong for my mother to indulge in feudal superstition, but this was also instigated by someone.
She is Ma Lian, the victim of this incident. She always whispers in my mother's ear to sow discord between my mother and her daughter-in-law.
My mother became obsessed with Feng Shui because she heard Ma Lian say that placing things in that way would help her give birth to a son. Ma Lian even instigated my mother to prepare some folk remedies for my wife and force her to take them.
Including the rumors about her so-called good fortune and ability to cure diseases, they were all made up by Ma Lian, just to make our family uneasy. ”
Of course, the investigators knew that Ma Lian was involved, but they didn’t understand why Ma Lian did this and what her purpose was.
Xia Ting'an took out the two love letters with an embarrassed look on his face: "The reason why Ma Lian targeted our family is because of this, she...she likes my wife.
She wants to cause us to divorce so that she can benefit from it. ”
The investigators looked a little confused, and then several of them read the letter and looked at each other, they didn't expect that such a thing was actually true.
Although these two love letters were written by Lu Xiaojing, they were processed by Jiang Panyu before Lu Xiaojing took them home, ensuring that the investigators would not be able to find any authenticity.
The cause and consequence of the whole incident were perfectly presented in front of everyone. Ma Lian was thinking about Xia Ting'an's wife Lu Xiaojing, and for Lu Xiaojing, she began to sow discord between Old Lady Xia and her daughter-in-law.
She tried to stir up conflicts between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law and within the family so as to get Lu Xiaojing, but she didn't expect that Ma Lian acted too much and got herself into trouble and was injured and hospitalized.
So Ma Lian was both a victim and a perpetrator. Although she was rescued and saved her life, she could not avoid facing imprisonment.
Not only Ma Lian, but also the Ma family members who participated in feudal superstition did not end up well. Not only were all the money obtained from all illegal activities confiscated, but the Ma family members also had to be detained in the detention center.
When they get out, they may not even be able to keep their jobs.
Those who paid a high price to buy meat were also punished. After all, cannibalism is not a good thing. Their case was even more serious, and they were clearly breaking the law knowingly.
However, since those who pay a large sum of money for the flesh are all seriously ill patients, their punishment will be mitigated to a certain extent.
Then, Xia's parents also wanted to cure the disease, so they drank the bowl of bloody Chinese medicine. Later, because of the two things combined with feudal superstition, their punishment was not light.
Xia Ting'an not only had to pay the fine, but also had to send clothes and bedding to his parents to prevent the two elderly people from getting sick in there.
Things have come to this point, and Ma Lian's plan has naturally been made public. It will be extremely difficult to have any relationship with Xia Ting'an in this lifetime.
Xia's parents naturally knew that they had been cheated by Ma Lian, and they cursed Ma Lian as a jinx in the detention center.
But what's the use? Ma Lian is still receiving treatment in the hospital, and no matter how harshly Old Lady Xia scolds her, she can't hear it.
The case was closed quickly, and Ma Lian became famous. The drama she directed and acted in, which brought disaster upon herself, was reported in the newspapers and became a negative example. It would be extremely difficult for her to make a comeback in this life.
When Ma Lian was taken to the detention center, she was ganged up on by those who believed that Ma Lian's flesh and blood could cure diseases and were arrested for being feudal superstitious.
When someone is full of ill will towards you and wants to teach you a lesson at any time, no matter how many tricks Ma Lian has, she cannot escape.
Later, because he got into a fight with a cellmate, causing serious injuries to the other person, he was sentenced to an additional ten years, even though he could have been released in a few years.
In the end, due to various reasons, Ma Lian's sentence became longer and longer. Ma Lian became more and more desperate, her thinking became more and more extreme, and she even tried to escape from prison. This directly ruined her whole life and she could never get out again.
But that's all in the future. Now Xia Ting'an finally breathed a sigh of relief. Thank God, this vixen was finally put in jail. His wife is still his after all, and no one will come to snatch her from him.
But he was worried that his parents were not having a good time in the detention center, so he ran around during this period. During the day, he had to go to get off work and visit his parents after work. When he got home, he just slept. He didn't notice that there were fewer and fewer things related to Lu Xiaojing at home.
It was not until one day when he noticed that only his toothbrush was left in the cup and Lu Xiaojing's toothbrush was missing that he realized something was wrong.
He and Lu Xiaojing had been sleeping in separate rooms for some time, so he had no idea that Lu Xiaojing was no longer sleeping at home, and her things must have been moved out of the house.
Xia Ting'an pushed open Lu Xiaojing's room and looked at the empty room. He was shocked. Could it be that Lu Xiaojing had been successfully seduced by that vixen Ma Lian?
Xia Ting'an hurried to Lu Xiaojing's school to find out what was going on, but he didn't expect that Lu Xiaojing would file for divorce with him as soon as she saw him.
"Why? Xiaojing, is there something I did wrong? Tell me and we can have a good discussion. Please don't bring up divorce all the time, okay?" Xia Ting'an was a little panicked. She grabbed Lu Xiaojing's hand, wanting her to take back what she said.
Lu Xiaojing smiled slightly. Her face was calm, and her eyes were no longer filled with resentment and pain. "Xia Ting'an, let me tell you a story from my past life. After I finish, you can consider whether to divorce me."
"Once upon a time, there was a couple who had a good relationship, but after two years of marriage, there was still no movement in her belly..."
Lu Xiaojing recounted the events of her previous life exactly as they happened, without any exaggeration, just telling the story in a simple and straightforward manner.
As Xia Ting'an listened, he realized something was wrong. He tried to interrupt Lu Xiaojing several times, but Lu Xiaojing ignored his behavior and continued to speak word by word.
Finally, Lu Xiaojing smiled and asked Xia Ting'an: "Tell me, with so many things happening, how could that young couple go back to the way they were before?"
Xia Ting'an defended himself with sweat dripping down his cheeks: "You also said it was a story, it hasn't happened yet!
Xiaojing, don’t you know how I feel about you? ”
“If you want to treat it as a story, then treat it as a story, but in my eyes, after going through so much hardship, I can no longer find the original intention of this relationship.
So let's get a divorce. It's good for me, you, and your parents. You should take care of yourself from now on. "Lu Xiaojing wanted to turn around and leave after she finished speaking.
"Is there not even a glimmer of chance to save the situation?" Xia Ting'an grabbed Lu Xiaojing's hand and said this with difficulty.
Lu Xiaojing slowly opened Xia Ting'an's hands and said calmly, "Let's meet at the Civil Affairs Bureau tomorrow at noon."
Xia Ting'an was still sitting in the chair in a daze. He felt that the story told by Lu Xiaojing was very ridiculous, but deep down he didn't know why, he felt that the story was true and that Lu Xiaojing had really experienced such painful suffering.
He lowered his head sadly, wondering why he didn't protect her at that time?
Maybe it was because I had no sense of crisis. At that time, no one was competing with me for Lu Xiaojing. On the contrary, I was the popular one, so I looked at the problem from a different perspective. That’s why I didn’t realize Ma Lian’s sinister intentions at that time.
Lu Xiaojing was bullied by her own mother, but as a husband, he did not make any changes. This was the real reason why they eventually separated.
Xia Ting'an just felt bitterness in her heart and eyes. Some things were indeed lost and would never come back. Lu Xiaojing would never come back. She was extremely disappointed in him.
As expected, the two of them went to the Civil Affairs Bureau the next day and completed the divorce procedures. Then Lu Xiaojing left without looking back. Her movements were particularly carefree, as if she was a bird that had escaped from a cage and flew into the sky that belonged to her.
Xia Ting'an held the divorce book in his hand and walked silently towards his own path. The two of them parted ways, and even if they met again in the future, they would just be strangers who were somewhat familiar to each other.
Jiang Panyu's mission was successful, and he got the golden finger skill that would ensure he would win every bet. However, there were too many restrictions, and it was so useless that Jiang Panyu didn't even want it.
"Host, there is nothing we can do about this. If the golden finger is too big, it will affect the energy balance of the big world, so there are many restrictions.
We do this to prevent those who get it from falling into the abyss due to improper operation, and we are also responsible for you. ”
