Chapter 25 Chapter 25 Jiang Yuanzong and Yu Qingqing were caught having an affair...
"Okay, I got it." Jiang Qiuyue took the trousers and put them in the bamboo basket.
When Jiang Qiuyue was preparing to cook dinner, there was a knock on the door. When she saw it was Fang Zhaodi, Jiang Qiuyue only opened the door a crack.
"Qiuyue, I know you blame me for being incompetent, but men are the ones who make the decisions at home. Can you please be considerate of me?"
Fang Zhaodi was forced to come here by Jiang Yuanzong. If she couldn't get the money, he wouldn't let her go back tonight. "You know your father. I didn't meet his expectations, so a couple of beatings would be the least of his punishment. Mom has had a hard life. Only after giving birth to you five sisters, she can bring honor to the family. Don't resent mom. Look at yourself. You are living a good life now, aren't you?"
"No matter how well I live, it's not because of you. My bad life is all because of you." Jiang Qiuyue refused to give in. "If I were you, I would fight Jiang Yuanzong to the death if he dared to touch me. What are you afraid of? There's nothing to be afraid of. At worst, we can die together."
"You said I didn't understand you. When I was forced to work since I was a child, did you help me? When the Yun brothers bullied us sisters, did you say a word? When Jiang Yuanzong threw away my fifth sister because she was a girl, did you think that she was also your child?"
No, Fang Zhaodi would only cry about her miserable life but would not resist, which would make Jiang Yuanzong even more presumptuous.
Jiang Qiuyue didn't sympathize with Fang Zhaodi at all, but if Fang Zhaodi had protected them in private in the past, she would have shown some kindness.
"I don't want any money. You can stay at the door as long as you want. I don't care about you." Jiang Qiuyue turned around and closed the door.
"Qiuyue, don't be like this. Mom still loves you in her heart. Open the door and listen to what I have to say. Mom begs you, okay?"
Fang Zhaodi banged on the door and started crying.
Lin Nannan was a little scared when she heard the crying sound coming from the door, and she grabbed Jiang Qiuyue's apron tightly.
Lin Beibei was equally uneasy, "Mom, why have so many people come to our house crying these days?" Children don't understand what adults are saying, but they know what fear is. Knocking on the door again and again makes them feel scared.
"Don't be afraid, Beibei and Nannan, they won't come in two days." Jiang Qiuyue touched the two children's heads and started cooking.
When it was getting dark in the evening, Jiang Qiuyue coaxed the two children to bed. She meant to let Lin Zhengrong look after the children at home.
Lin Zhengrong disagreed, "You're not as fast as me. If something really happens, I can still take action." No matter how many people there were, Lin Zhengrong had no problem.
Jiang Qiuyue also wanted to go and see, but she was worried about leaving the two children alone at home, so she could only compromise, "The brothers of the Yun family will definitely stop them. They rely on their large number of brothers to bully people in the village. Anyway, you just watch, my mother is here now, Jiang Yuanzong must be with the widow."
"Okay, I know what you mean." Lin Zhengrong asked Jiang Qiuyue to close the door, and he set out under the moonlight.
At the same time, Jiang Yuanzong was eating melon seeds with the widow.
Kerosene lamps were lit in the house. The Yun brothers all went back to their rooms. Widow Yu leaned against Jiang Yuanzong and asked, "Do you think Fang Zhaodi can get her money back?"
"No matter how cruel Jiang Qiuyue is, looking at her mother's attitude, she will give her some money. I don't believe it. No matter how much a person changes, it is impossible for them to change completely, right? Unless she has a new heart." Jiang Yuanzong snorted, "Anyway, I have plenty of time to waste with her. If she doesn't give me money for one day, I will go to her every day to make trouble. Let's see what she can do to me."
"That's right. You're her biological father. If you go there too often, her reputation in Taohua Village will be ruined." Widow Yu also wanted to get some money from Jiang Qiuyue. She rolled her eyes and said, "Yunshan is also of marriageable age. You know how capable I am as a widow. The last time Yunshan went to see a girl, she asked for a 100 yuan dowry, but I can't afford it."
She began to sigh, and Jiang Yuanzong immediately said he would give her the money.
"Yunshan is my son, I won't let him be single." Jiang Yuanzong said, "When Fang Zhaodi comes back with the money, I'll give it all to you, and then ask Chuntao and the others for some more, so that Yunshan can have a hundred yuan."
Although his son could not recognize his ancestors, Jiang Yuanzong was very happy knowing it privately. And no one could predict what would happen in the future. Who knows when Yunshan would be able to change his surname to Jiang.
This is what Widow Yu wanted to hear from Jiang Yuanzong. She took advantage of Jiang Yuanzong and kept praising him by saying how nice he was.
The lights were on in their place. Yunshan and his third brother Yunhai lived in the same house next door. The two brothers could sometimes hear the noise coming from next door.
Yunhai is 23 years old this year, but he still has no wife. He and his two brothers don't like Jiang Yuanzong coming over, but there is nothing they can do. Jiang Yuanzong will give them money. "Fourth brother, I asked around today. Jiang Qiuyue's husband is a soldier. His monthly salary is at least 30 or 40 yuan."
"So much?" Yunshan turned over and looked at his third brother. "Then why did Jiang Qiuyue still say she had no money and cut off all ties with the Jiang family for so many years?"
"He is very scheming and refuses to help you brothers and sisters. Logically speaking, you are his biological brother, so she should help you." Yunhai said this with some teasing, which made Yunshan uncomfortable.
"She is not my biological sister. I am a member of the Yun family and have nothing to do with the Jiang family." Yunshan hated it most when Jiang Yuanzong secretly pulled him aside and asked him to call him dad all the time.
What's the meaning?
Boring.
If you have the guts, you should really give him the surname Jiang. He will be sneaky and stole the money even if you give him it. Look at how Jiang Yaozu eats so well while he still has to share the food with his brothers.
"Jiang Yuanzong will definitely take care of you. You should be happy. At least someone is trying to raise money for you to marry a wife. Look at me. No one loves me. I wanted Jiang's fourth daughter to marry me, but she refused. I have been single forever."
Yun Hai got angry when he heard this. No one could have imagined that a woman who usually seemed to be silent would threaten to die and actually jump into the river. Jiang Yuanzong was afraid that if his daughter really died, he would not get the betrothal gift, so he found another family for her.
In the darkness, Yunshan smiled obscenely, "Come to think of it, the Jiang sisters are all pretty."
"Who said it wasn't? Don't you think Jiang Yuanzong can earn so many gifts?" Yun Hai turned over and heard the noise coming from next door. He was upset. "Here they come again. Jiang Yuanzong is already an old man, why doesn't he keep quiet?"
They are all young guys who hear this kind of noise every now and then. After a long time, they are all filled with anger.
Yunshan frowned, "Stuff your ears with cotton, otherwise you won't be able to sleep tonight." He didn't know what Jiang Yuanzong was doing, sometimes he was still doing it in the middle of the night.
He also wants to get married. If he has a wife, he will definitely sleep in his arms every day.
The brothers stuffed cotton in their ears and fell asleep after a while, so they didn't hear the noise coming from behind the house.
Lin Zhengrong secretly unbolted the door, leaving a gap in the Yun family's door. He looked at someone coming with a flashlight in the distance, and then hid behind the wall.
Leading the group were team leader Cai Jiaqiang and Yunshan's uncle Yun Huajian, followed by several young men from the village.
Cai Jiaqiang received an anonymous tip-off today, saying that Jiang Yuanzong and Yu Qingqing were having an affair. If he did nothing, the tip-off would go to the town to find the police.
In order to select activists every year, the team leaders of each village work hard. Not only do they work hard on production, but the reputation of the village is also very important.
Things like adultery should be solved by the village itself, and should not be reported to the town, otherwise Cai Jiaqiang would definitely not be rated as an activist this year. So he did as the other party said and brought people to the widow's house after dark.
As for Yun Huajian, he had always been unhappy with Yu Qingqing. His parents died early, and he was raised by his brother. As a result, his brother was unlucky and died early. When he was only sixteen, he was driven out of the house by Yu Qingqing, saying that the family could not support so many people.
Yun Huajian lived in a shabby house given by the village and endured a few years of hardship before his life became a little better. When he was old enough to marry a wife, he had to wait for several years because he had no money, and finally married a widow.
Yun Huajian has always attributed all his misfortunes over the years to Yu Qingqing's cruelty.
Others said that Yu Qingqing was weak and pitiful, but he knew that Yu Qingqing was the most vicious.
So knowing that Yu Qingqing had been having an affair with Jiang Yuanzong all these years and even gave birth to Jiang Yuanzong's son, Yun Huajian couldn't stand it and went straight to find the captain.
The two of them then came together to catch the adulterer.
When he arrived at the Yun family’s door, Yun Huajian wanted to climb over the wall to get in, but the door opened as soon as he pushed it.
A group of people walked into the yard, and before they could knock on the door, they saw two figures in the main house, and Yu Qingqing's voice could be heard from inside the house.
Yun Huajian clenched his fists, raised his legs and kicked the door hard, startling the people inside. Yu Qingqing loudly asked who it was.
"You fucking slut, and you still dare to ask who I am?" Yun Huajian was furious and kicked the door. Cai Jiaqiang also asked for help, and soon the door was kicked open.
Yu Qingqing had just put on her coat when she heard a bulge under the quilt, obviously there was someone there. She shouted her sons' names in panic, but Yunshan and Yunhai had cotton in their ears and didn't hear anything. The other two sons came out with their wives, but were stopped outside the door.
"Hua Jian, what are you doing?" Yu Qingqing was trembling, but she still said stubbornly, "Take these people away quickly, Captain, get out of here quickly. I'm a widow with no clothes on, and you guys have seen me. How can I live?"
"How dare you say such things?" Yun Huajian finally got the chance to take revenge on Yu Qingqing. He went over to pull the quilt, but Yu Qingqing resisted, so he pushed her away.
As Yun Huajian suddenly pulled open the quilt, Jiang Yuanzong, who had not yet had time to put on his shirt, suddenly appeared.
This time, it was confirmed that Jiang Yuanzong and Yu Qingqing were having an affair.
Cai Jiaqiang pointed at the two people in the house and was shaking with anger. "You two are already in your 60s, and you are still having affairs at home. You have no shame. I am ashamed for you."
"Captain, please don't tell anyone, okay?" Yu Qingqing knew that she would be arrested for having an affair, so she knelt down and begged for mercy. "I was forced to do this. Jiang Yuanzong forced me to do this. Please let me go. I'm a widow raising four children. I have no other choice."
Hearing this, Jiang Yuanzong forgot his fear, climbed down from the bed and questioned Yu Qingqing, "What do you mean I forced you? It was you who seduced me in the beginning!"
"Yuanzong, I... I can't do anything. I'm afraid you will hit me if I don't agree." Yu Qingqing wanted to push all the responsibility onto Jiang Yuanzong and no longer cared about the friendship they had accumulated over the years.
"How dare you say that, you slut?" Jiang Yuanzong raised his hand and slapped Yu Qingqing. "I provided you with food and drink, and you said I was forced? Who was the one who just rode on me?"
Yu Qingqing was slapped twice and cried for help, but her two sons could not get in.
When the Yunshan brothers were woken up and rushed out of the room, the four brothers wanted to go back into the house, but were frightened by Cai Jiaqiang who came out, "What do you want to do? Do you want to rebel? Yu Qingqing is shouting so loudly, don't say you can't hear her, are you worthy of your dead father?"
With Cai Jiaqiang's intervention, the four brothers of the Yun family dared not say a word. Normally, because there were many men in the family, no one in the village dared to go against them.
But Cai Jiaqiang was different. He was the team leader and everyone in the village listened to him.
At this time, the neighbors next door also came over and asked what was going on.
They heard stones hitting the door and thought they were dreaming, but then they heard a quarrel in Yu Qingqing's house and came over to see what was going on.
Yun Huajian saw someone coming and dragged Yu Qingqing, whose clothes were in disarray, out, "Everyone, come and see, this shameless bitch actually had an affair with Jiang Yuanzong, and they even had a son."
Someone asked who.
Yun Huajian immediately said it was Yunshan, "When my brother was still alive, these two were together behind my brother's back. I was wondering why Yunshan didn't look like my brother, it turns out he was born to Yu Qingqing and Jiang Yuanzong. They've been having an affair for so many years!"
Yunshan, who originally wanted to speak up for Yu Qingqing, noticed that many people were looking at him after hearing what his uncle said, and he wished he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
"No, I'm not Jiang Yuanzong's son!" Yunshan denied loudly.
"Whether it is true or not, we will know after we ask." Yun Huajian turned to look at Cai Jiaqiang, "Captain, whether Yunshan is Jiang Yuanzong's son or not, it is a fact that Jiang Yuanzong and Yu Qingqing are having an affair. We cannot let this go easily. We must arrest them, criticize them, and send them to labor reform!"
The villagers saw that Jiang Yuanzong was also naked. Many of them had long disliked the Yun brothers, so they all agreed with what Yun Huajian said.
"I said there was something wrong with these two. Sure enough, they are so young and yet they are still sluts. How shameless!"
"Captain, I support sending them to labor reform!"
"Me too!"
…
Yu Qingqing cried and said no, she didn't want to go to labor reform, she still wanted to live a good life, she absolutely couldn't go to labor reform. But these people didn't care what she said, and dragged her and Jiang Yuanzong to the village committee.
Jiang Yuanzong kept cursing, "My son-in-law is a soldier. If you dare to arrest me, he won't let you go!"
"Who's afraid of you? Qiuyue has cut off all ties with you. I don't believe she will care about you!" Yun Huajian was determined to make sure Jiang Yuanzong and Yu Qingqing couldn't turn things around today and would definitely not give them any chance.
He grabbed the mud on the ground and stuffed it into Jiang Yuanzong and Yu Qingqing's mouths. All the hatred he had accumulated over the years was vented at this moment.
After arriving at the village committee, Jiang Yuanzong and Yu Qingqing were interrogated separately, and both said that they had seduced the other.
However, there was ambiguity about Yunshan's background. Yu Qingqing said that she had lied to Jiang Yuanzong, and Yunshan was actually her late husband's child. Jiang Yuanzong initially insisted that Yunshan was his son, but when he learned that Yu Qingqing had lied to him, he was furious, "What a whore! How dare she lie to me?"
Jiang Yuanzong, who found out he had been cheated, couldn't accept the reality for a while and struggled to beat Yu Qingqing, but his hands and feet were tied up, and his hands were rubbed raw, but Cai Jiaqiang refused to let him go.
Jiang Yuanzong and Yu Qingqing's affair was confirmed, and Lin Zhengrong returned home under the cover of night.
Jiang Qiuyue heard someone knocking on the door, and she tiptoed to open the door. In the moonlight, Lin Zhengrong's forehead was sweating, and she could smell the slight masculine scent on him. "How is it, is it done?"
"Well, it's all done." Lin Zhengrong was afraid that Jiang Qiuyue would not be able to sleep thinking about this, so he trotted back and pulled Jiang Qiuyue outside to talk. "They were caught in bed and have been taken to the village committee. That Yun Huajian hates Qingqing to the core. With him around, these two people will not have a good ending. When I came back, they were fighting each other and blaming each other."
Just thinking about it, Jiang Qiuyue found it exciting. "It's a pity I didn't see it, otherwise it would be very interesting."
As she spoke, she glanced in the direction of the door and lowered her voice, "This time Jiang Yuanzong can't make any more trouble."
"Indeed." Lin Zhengrong said, "But there are other people in the Jiang family, and they are not content. You go to bed first, I'll go take a shower."
As Lin Zhengrong spoke, he took off his shirt, revealing his toned muscles. He did not try to avoid it, but went to the kitchen and fetched a bucket of water.
Seeing Lin Zhengrong getting ready to take off his pants, Jiang Qiuyue hurried back to her room, but the sound of flushing coming from the yard seemed to stir up the waves in her heart.
It would be okay if I could eat someone with a figure like Lin Zhengrong, right?
This thought suddenly popped up in her mind, and Jiang Qiuyue was scared by herself. She wondered if she was too lonely to actually want to sleep with Lin Zhengrong.
What a pity, it would be better if we could just taste it without talking about it.
After Lin Zhengrong came back from taking a shower, Jiang Qiuyue turned over and went to sleep with her back to Lin Zhengrong.
It wasn't long before daybreak. Jiang Qiuyue had a slight headache when she woke up, but thinking about the Jiang family's affairs, she decided to get up early.
There were plenty of sweet potatoes and potatoes at home, so they ate steamed sweet potatoes in the morning. After they had eaten, Jiang Chuntao ran over to Fang Zhaodi in a panic, saying that something had happened at home.
Fang Zhaodi was shocked to learn that Jiang Yuanzong and Yu Qingqing were arrested, "How could this happen?"
He was fine for so many years, how come he was arrested?
She hated Yu Qingqing and wished she would die soon, but Jiang Yuanzong couldn't get into any trouble because he was the pillar of the family.
"I don't know what happened either. I heard someone reported Dad." Jiang Chuntao cried anxiously, "Mom, you should go back and check. The villagers have tied up Dad and Yu Qingqing. Yaozu is still at home and hasn't eaten yet."
Fang Zhaodi looked back at her daughter's house, which was still closed, and felt even more resentful, hating Jiang Qiuyue for not understanding her. After a night of cold wind, she was completely disappointed with her daughter.
"Well, let's go back first." Fang Zhaodi said.
Jiang Chuntao knocked on the door and said, "Qiuyue, come out quickly. Something happened at home. Even if you hate your parents, come with me to take a look now, okay?"
Jiang Qiuyue opened the door with a smile, "Something happened? That's a good thing for me, it's retribution. I advise you to mind your own business, otherwise your brother-in-law will be unhappy again."
"Qiuyue, why are you still saying such sarcastic words? Our parents worked so hard to raise us, we can't be ungrateful, right?" Jiang Chuntao didn't understand her sister's thoughts. "No matter what, it was our parents who raised us, we should repay them, right? Otherwise, what's the difference between us and animals?"
"You don't need to beat around the bush and scold me. I don't have such inhuman parents. Big sister, if you want to take care of it, just do it yourself. If I were there, I would just applaud." Jiang Qiuyue smiled coldly, "You should go back and take a look quickly, otherwise it will be too late and you might not be able to see anyone."
Fang Zhaodi looked at her daughter, her eyes filled with resentment, "Qiuyue, do you have to be so cold-blooded and heartless?"
"Well, yes." Jiang Qiuyue raised her eyebrows in disdain. She actually wanted to go and see what happened to Jiang Yuanzong, but if she went, people would think of her as the daughter of the Jiang family, which would drag down her reputation.
"Okay, remember what you said today. I'll wait for the day when you regret it. You can't have a smooth life. When you are bullied, I, as your mother, will wait to see you cry!" Fang Zhaodi turned around and left.
Jiang Chuntao followed without understanding, and the mother and daughter rushed home.
Jiang Qiuyue thought that she would not cry, she must be happy in her life and do her best to take care of herself.
Lin Zhengrong came back from fishing. Before Jiang Qiuyue left, she told the two children not to run around. "Mom is going to the captain's house to sew clothes. You stay at home and wait for mom to come back and make braised fish for you."
It was a pity that there were no peppercorns and hot pot base at home, otherwise she could make boiled fish. Thinking of boiled fish, Jiang Qiuyue swallowed her saliva. She also wanted to eat boiled beef, pickled pepper bullfrog, hot and sour chicken offal...ah, can't think about it, there are too many things I want to eat!
