"It was said that an old man named Zhou came to the capital. The waiter at the guesthouse where he stayed saw that he was generous, leaving early and returning late every day, and acting suspiciously. She felt that something was wrong and went to report it to the police.
After the report was made, the police station immediately sent someone to wait for him at his door. However, when the other party saw the uniformed man, he ran away and was caught with the help of enthusiastic citizens.
At that time, the old man was still shouting that he had not broken any law and why was he arrested. The police station asked him why he ran away and asked him to explain why he came here.
He said he was visiting relatives.
Ask him who his relatives are?
He said it was not convenient to disclose it publicly.
As a result, everyone was furious, saying that he must be an enemy spy. Otherwise, there was something he couldn't say. He was probably trying to leak information to his accomplices. He kept helping the police to take him away.
That evening, news broke that Old Man Zhou really did know a high-ranking official. He even knew his name and the number of people in his family. He also said he had a younger brother who was also a high-ranking official.
At this point, Wan Dayong asked the two men, "You're talking about a high-ranking official from the Northeast named Zhou. Does Uncle Zhou count? Don't worry, this matter isn't over yet."
Yi Jiefang kicked him. "Why are you showing off? Hurry up! If something happens later, you won't have time to listen to the end."
Zhang Guoqing was now certain that this was a matter between the Lin family and his own. This was absolutely correct! Thinking about his father-in-law's order to watch the show, did this mean that everything was under his control?
Was the mother-in-law really drugged? Was Zhou Jiao supposed to be killed? So the father-in-law deliberately moved his daughter-in-law away to keep her out of the situation until things calmed down?
But what about his father-in-law? What good is this revenge? He still feels so aggrieved. Marrying the daughter of his enemy, and having to look after her daughter every day. Just thinking about it makes me angry!
Even if she wants to divorce now, it’s not easy. She didn’t even know that her mother-in-law was drugged. She doesn’t know if she can withstand such a big blow.
Gu Ruyi is so damn cruel!
Even a tiger won't eat its own cubs. I never thought they could do such a beastly thing.
"...After that, it seemed like no one came to claim him. The police began searching his belongings and found two letters tucked away in his luggage. One seemed to be a warning to the other party to avoid future trouble and to eliminate the root of the problem; the other resembled a confession. The exact contents varied from one version to another, but they all mentioned the use of sterilization drugs.
What followed was what I just said. Seeing the situation had become a big deal, the police immediately transferred the case to the bureau. That’s how the story spread…”
"We suspect your family is involved. Dasheng has already taken leave to go back and ask his uncle. I'm coming here to inform you first. We'll have to wait until he gets back tonight for accurate information. What are your plans now? Do you want to go back first?"
Yi Jiefang tutted his words, "If this is true, what will Xiaowu say when he goes back? Should we help him seek justice from the Lin family? But who should we punish? One had a stroke, and the other is seriously ill."
Wan Dayong nudged him, signaling him to stop talking nonsense. This kind of thing would be unlucky for anyone, and no one would be in a good mood. Especially with that letter that was so devastating, I guess they'd want to kill someone.
Zhang Guoqing shook his head at them and said, "I'm fine."
Compared to them, Zhang Guoqing had more thoughts. There were still many things in the rumors that had not been exposed. He had a hunch that these were just warm-ups, and the main event would come next.
Given his father-in-law's temper, he even sent his precious daughter away to avoid him. It can be seen that the matter is very serious and he will definitely not let it go this time.
The Lin family is really finished this time!
After a moment's silence, Zhang Guoqing clapped his hands and said, "Let's wait for Dasheng to come back. I'll sort out today's affairs first and decide tonight."
Wan Dayong nodded. "Then I'll go back first. We'll discuss this after dinner. If you need any help, just let me know."
Yi Jiefang pulled Wan Dayong, who was about to leave, and asked, "Did you ask Dasheng to come back to the compound?"
"He will definitely come back. Let's wait until he gets confirmed."
Yi Jiefang watched him leave, then rubbed against Zhang Guoqing and whispered, "If this is true. Remember to bring the child back tonight, to avoid a conflict between the two families and hurting the child."
Zhang Guoqing smiled and nodded.
He accepted the kindness of these brothers. Usually they were all laughing and joking, not doing anything serious, but they were still very reliable when it mattered.
However, if he guessed correctly, his father-in-law would definitely send the child to school with great fanfare. Otherwise, how could he appear to be worried that his child would be harmed again?
His only worry is his mother-in-law!
Will she be able to withstand the mother-in-law who is always happy to see her and treats her like her own son?
Zhang Guoqing finished his shower absentmindedly, looking up at the sky from time to time. He secretly decided that when it got dark, he would run back to see what was going on at home.
...Now it’s time to go back. Those who should go to work are working, and those who should go to school are going to school.
The sun gradually sets, leaving a red sunset glow on the horizon. Gradually, the sky darkens, the sultry heat under the scorching sun at noon goes away, and the breeze brings a hint of coolness.
As time passed and it was getting dark, Geng Dasheng, whom Yi Jiefang had been waiting for, had not returned to the dormitory building yet, but a military vehicle had arrived instead.
He was just about to run to remind Zhang Guoqing, but unexpectedly the other party had already run over quickly.
The car door stopped and Xiao Wang's familiar face appeared in front of Zhang Guoqing. He pulled Zhang Guoqing aside and told him about the incident in general.
Zhang Guoqing nodded and gestured to Ping An, asking him not to get out of the car yet.
After saying that, Xiao Wang pointed to Xiao Ping'an who was sitting in the car with a smile on his face.
"The commander asked you to take care of the child for two days while he takes care of things at home. There's a lot of talk going on in the compound right now, and he's worried the child might hear about it."
"Well, you tell my dad to be careful."
"Okay, I'll pass it on for you. On your side, I'll go ask for leave from school."
Zhang Guoqing shook his head. "No, there's no farm work. I take him to class during the day and go home to sleep at night. Is my mother working now?"
Xiao Wang smiled and said, "The chief also said that you must not ask for leave. Okay, I'll listen to you. If you are too busy, go and ask for leave, and I'll also let the school know. Your mother-in-law happens to be working at the grassroots level, but she should hear the news soon."
Zhang Guoqing nodded, opened the car door, and took the child out. "It's getting late, you should go back first. If anything happens, please come and let me know."
"Okay. Be careful."
After unloading his luggage and watching the car leave, Ping An immediately asked, "Dad, is there something wrong at home?" before Zhang Guoqing could speak.
Zhang Guoqing patted his head and said, "There are too many people here. Let's go back and talk after we finish our meal."
"Grandma Chen brought your meal, let's go back and eat."
Yi Jiefang came over and just happened to hear it. He smiled and said, "Is there any share for uncle?"
"Yes. Grandma Chen said you must be starving, so she steamed a lot of buns. She said they would go bad if you didn't eat them, so she gave them to you as a midnight snack. I also asked her to bring me some meat."
Yi Jiefang thanked him cheerfully and winked at Zhang Guoqing.
Zhang Guoqing nodded.
The two communicated silently, confirming to each other that the rumor had become fact.
"Leave the class matters to me, you go up with the child first."
After seeing the father and son off, Yi Jiefang sighed inwardly. This must be a serious matter, otherwise why would Comrade Zhou be willing to let the child come here to bite mosquitoes?
