Sitting on the old-fashioned green train home, Xu Nian was still feeling weak and listless. She glared at Chen Chaoxi, grabbed his coat, covered her head with it, and began her usual routine of catching up on sleep.
I don't know how long I slept, but I know that when I woke up I was back in Nancheng County.
As soon as the two arrived at their doorstep, they saw a group of neighbors gathered around their house watching the commotion.
They exchanged a glance, realizing something was wrong, and quickly squeezed in to see what was happening.
The lock on the gate had been pried off, and Aunt Xu was moving things with her two sons and daughters-in-law, ignoring the neighbors' whispers and pointing fingers.
When Xu Nian saw that her second aunt had shamelessly come to occupy her house again, her face immediately darkened.
She was having so much fun with Shen Chaoxi that she almost forgot about this troublemaker, but unexpectedly, she reappeared in front of her like a flea.
"Wife, go call the police. I'll keep an eye on their family." Shen Chaoxi's expression was very unpleasant. He wanted to continue spending time with Xu Nian after he came back.
Unexpectedly, this Aunt Xu was like a persistent ghost, always trying to make things difficult for him.
It seems this family has Niannian and him completely under their thumb.
When their previous tactics failed, they decided to stubbornly stay and refuse to leave.
Xu Nian went to the police station and reported that her house had been broken into. She said that someone had illegally entered her private residence and she even clearly described how many people were involved.
Upon hearing that there were four or five people, the police immediately dispatched a team of officers on bicycles to Xu Nian's house.
The Xu family was still in a daze when they were surrounded by police officers, and they all cried out that they were innocent.
Xu Nian wouldn't tolerate them. She insisted that they had illegally entered her private residence and stolen her bicycle and some valuables.
The bicycle in the yard is indeed gone, and the radio and television in the house are also nowhere to be found. As for where they went, only Aunt Xu's family probably knows.
Aunt Xu tried to deny it, but Xu Nian had the shopping receipts.
The Xu family broke into the house while the owner was away, taking advantage of the situation. Whether it was stealing or illegally entering a private residence, it was enough to cause them a lot of trouble.
As for whether sending one's own relative to the police station is too cold-blooded, Xu Nian doesn't care about other people's opinions.
If things go smoothly this time, there will be plenty of relatives who want to take advantage of us. Even if it's not Aunt Xu the Second, there will be Aunt Xu the Fifth.
Most importantly, she was already planning to take revenge on Aunt Xu's family, so there was no reason for her to let this opportunity slip away.
Based on his original memory, Xu Hao should have found a job in the county town, but his coworkers took him to gamble and he has become addicted to gambling.
The bicycle, television, and radio were probably sold by the family to pay off their gambling debts.
Xu Nian looked dejected as she left the police station, but thankfully everything was still within her plans.
Xu Hao became addicted to gambling, and Xu Lang was seduced by a dancer. Even after selling all their savings, Xu's second aunt still couldn't fill the bottomless pit of her two sons' gambling addiction.
Adding in the current charges of theft and trespassing, he'd have to spend at least three to five years in jail.
Three to five years from now, the world will be a completely different place.
With a criminal record, Aunt Xu and her family couldn't find good jobs in the county town. They either had to return to the countryside to farm or stay in the county town to make a living.
But given Xu Hao and Xu Lang's personalities, it's hard to imagine what kind of path they would take without money.
Seeing that Xu Nian was frowning, clearly worried about her second aunt's family, Shen Chaoxi asked her how she wanted to handle the matter.
“Everyone should pay for their mistakes. The mistake has already been made, so there’s no reason for me, a victim, to generously forgive the perpetrator. Therefore, their family should go to jail and pay compensation as they should.” Xu Nian never intended to forgive Aunt Xu’s family from the beginning.
The original owner's death was caused by Aunt Xu's family; none of them were innocent.
Some debts, even if they don't occur at this time, still need to be repaid.
She never believed in repaying evil with good; she only believed in repaying good with good and evil with evil.
“Niannian, your approach is flawed. Pushing someone too far can lead to desperate measures. Why not leave it to me? I guarantee I can deliver to your satisfaction.” A sinister glint flashed across Chen Chaoxi’s handsome face, disappearing in an instant.
Xu Nian thought about it and agreed that Shen Chaoxi was right. If she flipped the table too hard, the starving ghosts would want to eat people.
"Shen Chaoxi, I have no other requirements, but you can't commit crimes, understand?" Xu Nian said anxiously.
"Okay, wife, I promise you, I will never do anything criminal." Shen Chaoxi smiled slowly, already having a preliminary plan in mind.
He will not intervene in this matter, nor will he show his face; it all depends on the choice of Aunt Xu's family.
Xu Nian detained Aunt Xu's family for a month, and it was only after the elders of the Xu family came to plead for them that Xu Nian agreed not to pursue the matter further.
She also made a strong statement, saying that if it happens again, she will not tolerate it.
No matter how resentful Aunt Xu's family was, there was nothing they could do. Life in prison was not easy, and no one wanted to stay there.
When Shen Chaoxi saw that Aunt Xu's family had come out, he hired several security guards at high salaries to guard the house, mainly to protect Xu Nian.
They are extremely vicious; no one knows how wicked a person's mind can be.
With no worries about the future, Shen Chaoxi began to make arrangements.
First, they send people to approach Xu Hao and Xu Lang, tricking them into thinking they want to make a lot of money, and telling them where the connections are.
Then... Xu Nian learned that her second aunt's two sons had disappeared several months later.
"Shen Chaoxi, where did they go?" Xu Nian asked casually, flipping through the book in her hand.
"To be honest, I don't know where they went either." Shen Chaoxi shrugged. He had someone point them in a direction, but he really didn't know the specifics of the outcome.
Seeing that Shen Chaoxi's eyes were clear and there was no need to lie about this, Xu Nian did not ask any further questions.
As long as Aunt Xu's family doesn't cause trouble in front of her, she knows they're not doing well.
"Honey, I'm planning to open a retail food factory." Shen Chaoxi told him about her recent plans. Being a translator was a quick way to make money, but it wasn't a long-term solution.
To make big money, you still need a stable channel and source.
"Hmm! Have you decided what you want to do?" Xu Nian looked at Shen Chaoxi with interest.
"It's almost Chinese New Year, and New Year's pastries and cookies are very popular. I'm planning to give it a try." Shen Chaoxi was being conservative. He wasn't just giving it a try; he had already planned everything and was just waiting to take action.
"Go ahead and do it if you want. Our money is all in the savings account. The password is our birthdays. If you need more, just let me know." Xu Nian handed the savings account to Shen Chaoxi and gave him an encouraging look.
He'll tell her about this; it definitely requires a lot of financial support. How could she not support him?
"Wife, I will definitely not let you down." Shen Chaoxi said solemnly, and couldn't help but hug and kiss Xu Nian again.
