She looked at Xie Songqing with hopeful eyes and said, "You should be able to do what my dad asked, right?"
Xie Songqing: "You think too highly of me. If it were that easy, why don't the rich kids who commit crimes get out of jail by paying money instead of just letting them serve their full time?"
Without even thinking, Tian Jianshan blurted out, "That's because they want to teach their child a lesson."
A hint of mockery flashed in Xie Songqing's eyes: "Since you know it's to teach him a lesson, does Tian Guang not deserve one for doing something wrong?"
Tian Jianshan looked helpless: "The children of rich people are different from us ordinary people. Even if they go to jail, they still have connections to protect them. No one will distance themselves from them because they did something wrong. If Tian Guang comes out, not to mention those far away, just those nearby, the neighbors will only look down on him."
Xie Songqing sneered inwardly, "Since you know we're different from the rich, you should have thought of that before making a mistake."
"Don't always think about me. I don't have the ability to cover up everything. I only have a little bit of power in the military, and that power is not used to protect criminals."
No matter what he said, Xie Songqing just wouldn't agree, and Tian Jianshan's expression gradually turned to despair.
At that moment, he realized that he couldn't save his second son.
After thinking it through, he suddenly looked several years older. He supported himself on the table with both hands, stood up with a slight tremor, and staggered away.
When Tian Wenxiu saw her father's change, her eyes instantly reddened, and she felt extremely sad and heartbroken.
She pleaded pitifully with Xie Songqing, "It's not like I'm just getting Tian Guang out of prison directly. It's on the condition of giving him enough money. This shouldn't be difficult for you. Can't you help me this once?"
Upon hearing this, Tian Jianshan stopped walking away, a glimmer of hope rekindling in his eyes.
Xie Songqing's expression was solemn: "Over the years, you must have seen many people who used their power to quell trouble. Do I need to repeat what happened to them in the end?"
Tian Wenxiu immediately thought of those people who used their power to help others or to benefit themselves... Her face turned deathly pale, and she dared not say another word.
When Tian Jianshan didn't hear his eldest daughter's reply, his eyes dimmed. He realized that his daughter and son-in-law were the real family, so why would she risk her future for her own family?
That's something that's impossible to even imagine.
Tianjianshan came with hope, but left with a heart full of disappointment.
It was almost noon. In order to get acquainted with the military wives and obtain some useful information, Su Yue, who had been here for almost two months, usually arranged to go grocery shopping with two or three military wives.
And so, we met up again today.
The group of women walked behind Tian Jianshan. When they reached Su Yue's side, the military wife gently took Su Yue's arm, her eyes filled with gossip. She gestured to Tian Jianshan with her eyes and then lowered her voice to say, "He is Tian Wenxiu's father."
Upon hearing this, Su Yue's eyes instantly turned cold. The old man with a full head of white hair and a hunched back was the one who had thrown Fu Shen away.
When the other military wives saw that Su Yue and her husband had slowed down, they also slowed down.
After Tian Jianshan boarded the bus, the military wife, who was holding Su Yue's arm, said mysteriously, "A while ago, Tian Wenxiu's father's hair wasn't this white. How come it's all white today?"
One of the military wives said, "You still don't know the reason, do you?"
Everyone shook their heads.
“I have a relative who works in the Public Security Bureau. He said that Tian Wenxiu’s younger brother, who sells liquor, has also gone to prison… One son after another has gone to prison. How can her hair not turn white? She’s worried to death.”
Su Yue frowned. She had heard Fu Shen say that Tian Wenxiu's younger brother was doing well selling wine, so why did something suddenly happen to him?
Did Fu Shen do something?
