Chapter 99 A College Student Named Jiang Mingyue
"Why does he need so much money? He can't possibly borrow so much money for no reason! This IOU is fake, it must be fake."
"Someone is harming our family. Someone is harming us."
Even now, Duan Ping still refuses to admit the truth.
She still thinks someone murdered them.
Seeing this, the police officer frowned slightly. "Comrade Duan, I know you can't accept this, but according to our investigation, your son got addicted to gambling two months ago."
"I'm afraid this money was borrowed for gambling."
"What? Impossible. How could Chengcai, such an obedient child, gamble? He is a college graduate from the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University, a good young man with a good family background. How could he gamble?"
Duan Ping couldn't accept it.
She forgot that her husband Dong Jianguo, who looked so honest, could be corrupt and accept bribes. How could it be impossible for her son to gamble?
The mother and daughter did not get the results they wanted at the police station, and finally left the police station in disgrace.
It was getting dark by then, so they didn't dare to delay and walked quickly towards Duanjia Village.
Dong Yumei was kicked on the shoulder and it hurt so much that she walked much slower.
As soon as the mother and daughter left Tonglin Town, they were followed by someone.
It was not completely dark yet, but there were no pedestrians on the road. When they passed a forest, the mother and daughter were covered with their mouths from behind and dragged into the forest.
One can imagine what four or five idle hooligans would do when they meet two women who have no power to resist.
The sounds of fighting, laughter, and cursing from the men in the woods gradually faded away.
The silent and deserted night is a good time to commit a crime. Only the moon hanging high in the sky quietly takes in everything.
The farce of the Dong family's property being confiscated has been talked about for a long time on the street where Jiang Mingyue lives.
Not only were the neighbors on the street talking about it, but everyone else in the town also knew about it.
When Jiang Mingyue was working at the stall, she overheard that Dong Chengcai had borrowed money to go to the casino, hoping to make a fortune, but ended up losing everything and simply jumped on a train and ran away...
As for Duan Ping and her daughter? It was said that they were going to go back to her parents' home to seek help, but no one knew what the Duan family was thinking. They simply packed up the mother and daughter and married them off together.
The mother and daughter, who originally lived a comfortable life in the town, were married off by the Duan family to a widower with several children in a remote area deep in the mountains, and to an old bachelor at the age of 40 who had not yet found a wife.
Duan Ping married an old bachelor.
Dong Yumei married a lame widower with four or five children.
When it was time to go out, the mother and daughter quarreled and were unwilling to go, but the Duan family ignored them.
Once the betrothal money was collected, the people were packed up and whoever was supposed to be taken away could take away, without any regard for the bride's family at all.
Hearing this, she just wanted to laugh.
The fate of the Dong family finally made her feel better.
If nothing unexpected happened, Duan Ping and her daughter would definitely have a very difficult time in the future.
As for Dong Chengcai?
It would be better to die outside.
"Boss, give me a basket of dumplings."
A new customer came to the stall. Jiang Mingyue collected her thoughts and handed the dumpling to the young man opposite her with a smile.
He didn't look like a town dweller and spoke with an accent from another place.
But his eyes were clear and pure, and it was obvious at first glance that he was a boy without any bad intentions.
Jiang Mingyue took the money and asked the guest to sit at a small table nearby.
"Sister, have you heard? Jiang Meixin is back."
Jiang Xinyue went back to the village yesterday and came here today. The first thing she did when she arrived at the stall was to share the news with her two sisters.
Jiang Meiyue is busy.
Jiang Mingyue was a little free, so she asked Jiang Xinyue, "What's wrong? Why are you bringing her up for no reason?"
Although they are cousins, their relationship has always been bad.
My sister suddenly mentioned Jiang Meixin, which made me feel that something must have happened.
Jiang Xinyue chuckled and said, "Sister, I heard from others that she stayed at home and didn't go anywhere after she came back, so I was a little curious about what she was doing at home."
"She is a college student now. How can she be interested in people from our village? It's already very good for her to come back to the village from the city during the winter vacation."
Jiang Mingyue can be said to have a relatively good understanding of the character of her cousin Jiang Meixin.
Given Jiang Meixin's arrogant personality, returning to the village during the holidays is really a big donation to the village.
Jiang Xinyue curled her lips, "When she was in school, her grades were obviously not as good as yours. Who knew that she was lucky enough to be admitted to university."
Thinking of this, Jiang Xinyue felt as uncomfortable as if she had eaten shit.
Why did her second sister fail to get into college despite working so hard? How could Jiang Meixin, the woman she had been dating since middle school, get into college?
She will always remember the look on her aunt Zhao Meihua's face when Jiang Meixin received the college acceptance letter.
It's like Jiang Meixin became a national leader.
It's really frustrating.
Jiang Mingyue felt uncomfortable, but what was past was past. Now she was pregnant with two babies, so it was impossible for her to go to college.
Besides, this kind of life now is actually pretty good.
"It's a pity that I couldn't go to college. Xinyue, you must study hard and try to get into college, fulfill your sister's dream, and make grandpa happy."
"Don't worry, sister. I will definitely pass the exam."
Jiang Xinyue is very confident in herself.
Jiang Mingyue has it too.
Just as he was about to encourage Jiang Xinyue again, the young man who was eating at the table suddenly interrupted.
"Well, comrades, can I ask you about someone?"
Xu Xueyou looked at Jiang Mingyue and the others with a shy smile on his face.
Jiang Mingyue nodded.
"What do you want to ask, comrade?"
"It's like this. I'm a student at Nanjing University. I want to ask you guys if you know a female student named Jiang Mingyue?"
Xu Xueyou did not ask this question casually, but he just heard Jiang Mingyue calling Xinyue's name, and he felt vaguely that the names were very similar.
Maybe they are from the same place?
Because of this speculation, he opened his mouth and asked this seemingly abrupt question.
"Jiang Mingyue?"
Jiang Mingyue was stunned.
What student?
Jiang Xinyue on the side blinked and asked, "Sister, do you know him?"
No, they didn't know him.
And the man didn't know them.
Jiang Meiyue, who was standing by, also noticed something was wrong. "I wonder which village the Jiang Mingyue you are looking for is from? To be honest, my second sister is called Jiang Mingyue."
"Ah? Your name is Jiang Mingyue too?"
Xu Xueyou was dumbfounded, "Are there many people with the surname Jiang here?"
