"That's my daughter. Don't I feel bad for her turning into this? I think for you, but who does? My good daughter has been in your family for decades and she has turned into a beast who doesn't recognize her relatives! Which one of you thinks for her? You all think about the bad influence on you! Lidong made her own mistakes. I didn't teach her well. Let the country educate her for me. I won't plead for her."
Mr. Wu rejected the two fathers and sons directly. His old eyes were sore. Wasn't he upset? Which parent could bear to see their children go to jail? What could he do?
"Old Wu, don't be so ruthless. If you really don't care, our family won't want your daughter anymore! I'll let my son divorce Wu Lidong!" Seeing that Old Wu was unmoved by her soft words or hard words, Old Mrs. Jin didn't hesitate either. This was the solution she had been thinking of for the past few days. If they divorced, it shouldn't affect his son and grandson.
Old Master Wu sneered, "Husband and wife are like birds in a forest. When disaster strikes, you fly away first. As long as your family can bear the reputation of a man who abandons his wife in trouble, it's fine."
Jin Guang was really impressed. He had already knelt down and was still threatening. If he could do that, why would he come over to beg again and again?
Wu Lidong will be back in a year at most. If he had done that ten or twenty years ago, some people would have understood it. But he abandoned his wife in just one year. Other people's comments would be a small matter. It would be strange if Wu Lidong didn't make a big fuss when he came out.
"Dad, Dad, don't listen to my mom. How could I abandon Lidong? We have been together for decades. She gave birth to my children and worked hard for half her life. There is no way I would abandon her!"
After hearing what Jin Guang said, Mr. Wu's expression relaxed. "This matter cannot be solved by me licking my face and begging for mercy. Put yourself in their shoes. If you were the Li family, and I went to beg for mercy, could you let me in?
Wu Zhiqiu is my daughter, but she is also a mother of five children and has several grandchildren. She also has to think about her family. If she can't explain this crime, what do you think the situation is like now?"
"Dad, we were wrong this time. I am willing to compensate my eldest sister. I only ask her to give Lidong a chance to reform! As long as Lidong is not held accountable this time, Lidong's work can be given to my eldest sister's family, and I am willing to give one thousand yuan as compensation." One thousand yuan was all the savings of the Jin family. Jin Guang really spent a lot of money.
Old Master Wu sighed. If it were Wu Zhiqiu in the past, he would have to ask Wu Zhiqiu what he thought about the Jin family paying so many things as compensation. However, he just came back from the third brother's engagement party yesterday. With the amount of money and the people he met, it was clear that he was not someone who was short of such a small amount of money.
"Jin Guang, you should deal with that matter as soon as possible before it gets out, and save the money for Jinshan to marry a wife." Old Master Wu patted Jin Guang's shoulder.
"Dad, we are so sincere in admitting our mistakes, can't you take a step back?"
Wu Huaili walked into the room and said, "You can't just say sorry and then they will say it's okay. People need to be sober and know when to advance and when to retreat."
Jin Guang's heart finally died, he got up from the ground, wiped his face, and said, "Go home."
Old Lady Jin glared at the Wu family fiercely, "If you stand aside and watch now, then you can just pretend that we are no longer your relatives!"
After the three people left, the old man didn't even have breakfast. He sat in the yard and smoked his pipe.
Zhang Huizhen breathed a sigh of relief. She was thankful that the father and son did not show any mercy. She never wanted to experience that kind of talk from Old Lady Li again in her lifetime.
The Jin family also quieted down. Wu Lidong's family didn't care about them anymore, so no matter how much they struggled, it was all in vain.
Jin Guang quickly sold Wu Lidong's work to a logistics director in Wu Lidong's factory for one thousand yuan. Everyone knew what was going on. Jin Guang would take the money whenever he could, so no matter how much he got before the news spread, it was all free money.
Jin Guang's girlfriend did not fail, which was quite unexpected to the Jin family. They didn't know what the family was thinking. The betrothal gift was five thousand before, but now it has been increased to one thousand.
The Jin family was satisfied and asked for an immediate wedding. As long as they could get a wife, they would be happy. They didn't dare to ask for a high gift.
The girl agreed, and the two of them registered first. The Jin family immediately gave a dowry of 1,000 yuan, not a single cent less. The girl, with her big buck teeth bared, didn't even wait for the wedding to take place, and happily moved into the Jin family.
This made old lady Jin very happy. After moving in, she would soon have a grandson, and the whole family forgot about Wu Lidong who was living there.
The slum
All the members of the Bai family were arrested before, but today the two sons and daughter-in-law were released. Bai Dongsheng never let them participate in any of his affairs.
