Chapter 147 Xia Shuangshan was captured
Xia Juanjuan was shocked. She had just had dinner at her place last night before going back. How could something happen so early in the morning?
Lin Yuru tearfully recounted the entire incident.
It turned out that last night, after Xia Shuangshan and Lin Yuru went back home, Li Cuihua, who had not been making trouble much, and her eldest son Xia Dazhuang and eldest daughter-in-law Liu Hongmei blocked the door.
Li Cuihua said coldly: "Second brother, second daughter-in-law, even if you are angry with your mother and me, it has been almost a year, should you let go? You have been helping your daughter for the past six months, and I won't say anything else. Now your eldest nephew's wife is also pregnant, and your sister-in-law has to take care of her at home, and she can't do the farm work at home. From tomorrow on, you should come home and help with the farm work at home!"
Xia Shuangshan and Lin Yuru were both stunned. They had broken off their relationship for a year and had no contact with each other. How could Li Cuihua suddenly have the nerve to say such things?
Before Xia Shuangshan and Lin Yuru could speak, Liu Hongmei smiled first and said: "Second brother, second brother and sister, what do you mean, our Xia family doesn't have any boys. Although you have no sons, your eldest nephew will definitely provide for you in the future. You said that you are now devoted to helping Juan'er without any reservation. If you continue to help Juan'er, the child in her belly cannot be named Xia, right? You should be careful."
Xia Shuangshan glanced at the two of them coldly without replying. He turned around and said to Lin Yuru, "Juan'er's mother, close the door! I don't know whose dog is barking non-stop!"
Lin Yuru went to close the door.
Li Cuihua and Liu Hongmei were extremely angry after hearing this.
Xia Dazhuang moved his hand first, stepped forward, pushed Lin Yuru to the ground, pointed at Xia Shuangshan's nose and cursed: "Xia Laoer, don't be ungrateful! I'm giving you another chance! What you say about your money-losing girl is not the flesh that fell off her body, and she has no blood relationship with you! You are a serious nephew and don't help, but you rush around to help. An outsider? Back then, we felt sorry for your son’s death, so we turned a blind eye and adopted that bastard who came from nowhere. We also helped you hide it from everyone in the village! Now, I advise you to think carefully about who to help, otherwise, I will go to the commune tomorrow and reveal that Xia Juanjuan is not your daughter. I want to see if your daughter will still recognize you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xia Shuangshan punched Xia Dazhuang hard, knocking him to the ground with such fear that he screamed and howled.
Xia Shuangshan didn't say anything, but just punched Xia Dazhuang with all his might, until his head was broken and bleeding.
Xia Shuangshan then spoke: "Who among you dares to say that my daughter is not my biological daughter? Just try. I, Xia Shuangshan, have no descendants anyway. If I don't even have a daughter, I will be a bachelor with nothing. Just wait and see what I will do to your family. Son? Grandson? Hehe, just wait and see!"
These words made Li Cuihua, Xia Dazhuang and Liu Hongmei tremble with fear. No matter how bad Xia Shuangshan was in the past, he had never hit anyone, but today he suddenly did something ruthless. This... is too scary!
Xia Shuangshan let go of Xia Dazhuang, who stumbled to his feet and ran away. Unexpectedly, he accidentally knocked Li Cuihua over, and his head hit a rock, causing blood to gushed out.
Although Xia Shuangshan hated Li Cuihua and others, he still hurriedly found someone and sent Li Cuihua to the county hospital overnight.
Lin Yuru had to come and take care of Xia Juanjuan the next day, so she didn't go.
Unexpectedly, after waiting anxiously until this morning, Xia Dazhuang and Li Cuihua were both bandaged and brought back by the villagers, but Xia Shuangshan was detained by the county police.
"Xia Dazhuang and Li Cuihua are two ruthless people who are determined to send your father to prison. They insisted that it was your father who beat them and kicked your mother, causing her to fall on the stone. Your father had no witnesses and was detained by the police without any excuse!
Juanjuan, what should I do? Life seemed to be getting better and my grandson was about to be born, but your father got into trouble! How am I going to live in the future? "
Lin Yuru was at a loss and cried in despair. However, she still did not say that Xia Juanjuan was not their biological child.
Xia Juanjuan also thought of the lawsuit first, then forced herself to calm down and comforted Lin Yuru, "Mom, don't worry. The police will not just listen to Li Cuihua and Xia Dazhuang. They will definitely investigate. How about this, I will go to Secretary Zhao first and ask if there is any new information, and then we will make a long-term plan..."
After hearing this, Lin Yuru calmed down a little and said quickly: "Yes! Yes! Let's go find Secretary Zhao first. Secretary Zhao has studied. Let's listen to what he says!"
Lin Yuru is a typical rural woman who has no opinions of her own and always listens to her husband. Xia Juanjuan knows that if she is left to handle the matter on her own, she will definitely not be able to figure it out, so she has to go on her own.
Secretary Zhao certainly knew about the visit from the county police station. When he saw Xia Juanjuan and Lin Yuru coming over, he sighed and said:
"Ah! Look at what this has done! Xia Dazhuang is really a piece of shit! Who in our commune doesn't know what kind of person your father is? I've already told the police at the hospital this morning. The people from Xia Village who sent them to the hospital were willing to testify for your father, saying that he couldn't possibly do such a crazy thing. But the police are also fair and just. Xia Dazhuang went to report the case overnight, so they can only detain your father first. Don't worry, especially Li's wife. You're about to give birth, so nothing can go wrong at this time. I believe the police will definitely give your father justice."
After hearing this, Lin Yuru couldn't help crying again as it seemed that Xia Shuangshan couldn't be released immediately.
While persuading her, Xia Juanjuan said, "Secretary Zhao, thank you. But my mother and I can't calm down just waiting in the village. Can you help me write a letter of introduction? I will take my mother to the county to inquire about the situation. It just so happens that people in the village say that my belly is so big that I may be pregnant with multiple babies. I am also afraid that if it is true, it will be somewhat dangerous to give birth in the village, so I am thinking of going to the county hospital to give birth..."
Secretary Zhao also thought what she said made sense: "Yes. Giving birth in the county hospital is definitely safer. However, you are still two months away from giving birth, right? Will the hospital be able to accept you?"
"I've thought about this. I heard from Sister Zheng from the supply and marketing cooperative in the town that many people in the county have moved into the employee buildings built by the factory, and many of the old houses are empty. I thought about giving them some money and staying with my mother for a month or two, and then going to the hospital when she is about to give birth. Now, my father is in trouble again, so I thought about going to the county seat as soon as possible so that I can go there every day to ask about the situation..." Xia Juanjuan said.
Secretary Zhao heard this, but did not agree immediately.
In this era, the management of personnel flow is strict. People from the village go to the county and stay there for several months without a legitimate reason. If he gives them a letter of introduction, he will be responsible if something goes wrong.
However, Secretary Zhao made a decision quickly. He nodded and said, "Okay. I'll give you a letter of introduction. But you have to promise me that you won't go to the police station to cause trouble. Do you understand? Otherwise, even I won't be able to save you when the time comes."
Xia Juanjuan said reluctantly: "Secretary Zhao, don't worry. Every wrong has its perpetrator and every debt has its creditor. We also believe that the police will not wrongly accuse my father. We will just go and wait, and there will definitely be no trouble. It's just that the fields are busy with autumn harvest and winter planting now, and I'm afraid our family will..."
Secretary Zhao immediately said, "You don't have to worry about this. Your family is in a special situation right now, and the commune understands..."
After getting the letter of introduction, the two of them went out, but Lin Yuru was still a little unsure.
"Juan'er, are we really going to the county town? It will cost a lot of money to rent someone else's house there, right? And your father...can your father really be okay?"
Xia Juanjuan said, "Mom, don't worry about the money. I have it here. You were there that night, weren't you? The police can't just listen to Li Cuihua, Xia Dazhuang, and Liu Hongmei. Tell them what you saw. They will definitely be able to tell who is telling the truth and who is lying!"
Lin Yuru nodded, and couldn't help wiping away tears, saying: "Juan'er, Mom is useless. You are pregnant, and Mom still lets you worry about these things..."
Xia Juanjuan comforted Lin Yuru a few more words and walked back home.
Xia Juanjuan went to Zhou Qiuhe's house again and asked Li Jie to take some time out in the next two days to borrow an ox cart from the village to take her and Lin Yuru to the county town.
Li Jie also heard about Xia Shuangshan's situation and agreed without saying anything.
The next morning, Xia Juanjuan and Lin Yuru took some daily necessities, got on the ox cart, and asked Li Jie to drive them to the county town.
As for the three little ones, Xia Juanjuan left enough money, food and eggs and asked Zhou Qiuhe to look after them for a few days.
When the three little boys heard that their grandfather had been arrested, they were extremely worried. Now seeing that their mother was gone, although they knew that she didn't want them anymore, they still couldn't help crying for a long time before Zhou Qiuhe took them back to the house.
