The father-in-law's attitude in the letter was very clear. When things got out of hand, he had already hinted at wanting a divorce. But now that Zhou Xuehua was insane, her feigning madness to avoid a divorce was a way of getting what she wanted.
Lu Zhixi had never met Zhou Xuehua, but she knew from the few words the siblings exchanged that Zhou Xuehua was not good to the two people she cared about.
Both her husband's and Xiao Fan's assignments to the countryside were orchestrated by her.
Therefore, naturally there would be no feelings involved.
But she wouldn't be foolish enough to tell Fan Yunyan, "Your mother deserved it..."
On the contrary, they will say some comforting words.
However, her mother-in-law is truly a formidable figure. Listen to this: her father-in-law's family is the only one with close ties to the main branch of the Fan family. They don't even have any contact with the main branch, yet her mother-in-law has managed to make contact with them and even managed to get people to agree to interfere in Fan Yunli's marriage. Moreover, if it weren't for the Zhan family's influence, it would be hard to say how things would have ended up.
It's quite possible that Fan Yunli will smoothly marry that poor Comrade Zhan Yuan'an, isn't it...?
Hmm, so the current outcome is only her own fault for being less skilled.
After calming himself down, Fan Yunyan regained his rationality. He would help his mother find the murderer, but that didn't mean he agreed that what his mother did was right. His wife and sister were also right. He couldn't act impulsively now.
After leaving the Xiangyang Brigade, Fan Xiaofan thought about it and decided to go find Ruan Jiu.
Ruan Jiu was practicing kung fu in the courtyard when she stopped and saw a girl over there with her eyes narrowed in a smile.
"Xiao Fan, what brings you here?"
He casually wiped the dagger in his hand, put it away, and beckoned Fan Xiaofan in, asking the bald boy to bring some refreshments and tea.
Fan Xiaofan scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly: "I came back from S City, and then went to Xiangyang Brigade. My brother told me some things... my mother has gone mad..."
"So, you've come here to ask me for some information?"
Ruan Jiu raised an eyebrow.
Fan Xiaofan nodded. There are some things that many people can't find out, but that doesn't mean Ruan Jiu can't find out.
"There are too many confusing things, and if you can't figure them out, it will be really bad."
Ruan Jiu beckoned the bald boy to go inside and get something, then explained to Fan Xiaofan, "Shi Lingheng and I already knew about this. He guessed you'd be curious when you came back, so we prepared the information about it for you a long time ago."
Fan Xiaofan's eyes widened in surprise.
"Shi Zhiqing?"
Ruan Jiu nodded: "Yes, because of this, he didn't go to him, but he threw a tantrum at me, forcing me to spar with him again. I'm such an innocent person..."
To be honest, if you don't know Ruan Jiu well and only judge him by your initial impression, you might think he is an unapproachable and aloof gentleman. But after getting to know him, you will find that he cares about his image to the point of being ridiculous, and he is also very loyal.
but……
"You got angry with me because of me..."
Fan Xiaofan repeated it subconsciously, feeling something inexplicably strange about it.
The bald guy had already brought the documents over, and Ruan Jiu took them and handed them to Fan Xiaofan, saying matter-of-factly, "Yeah... come to think of it, I really am an innocent victim."
Fan Xiaofan took the documents.
Ruan Jiu said nonchalantly, "If anything happens in the future, you can talk to him first, and I'll help you investigate. Otherwise, I'm afraid I'll get implicated again. Who knows why he's so petty..."
