Chapter 180 Niu Hulu Zheng Haiyang
Chang Dafeng had planned to dump the dirty work on Jiang Qiubai, but she didn't expect Jiang Qiubai to be even more ruthless, actually packing his things and going back to his parents' home.
Chang Dafeng: "!!!"
She cursed and swore, "This is outrageous! This is outrageous! This damned little bitch really thinks she can get away with anything!"
Even if she cursed harshly, with the neighbors in the yard watching her intently and threatening to kick her out of the compound, Chang Dafeng could only promise with a dark face that she would definitely clean up the sewage in front of her door properly.
With her daughter and son at school, Chang Dafeng had no choice but to hold her nose and fetch several buckets of water to wash the doorway herself, cursing Jiang Qiubai as she did so.
...
Under the watchful eyes of her neighbors, Chang Dafeng washed the floor four or five times until there was no longer any stench, before they finally let her go.
Chang Dafeng rubbed her aching back and grumbled as she went home. Little did she know that it was already late, the children had finished school, and she had to start preparing lunch. She was almost exhausted.
With Jiang Qiubai gone, all the housework fell on Chang Dafeng's shoulders.
Putting everything else aside, just the three meals a day were enough to make Chang Dafeng quite annoyed.
The main problem was that she couldn't bear to use hot water, so she used cold water to wash vegetables and dishes. It was only the beginning of the new year, and it was still very cold in the north of the city. Before long, Chang Dafeng's hands were frozen like carrots.
There were also two children's clothes that they had changed out of.
Haiyan and Haihua are really disobedient. What's wrong with wearing the same clothes for a month or two in the dead of winter?
Why do I need to wash it?
How insensible of you!
She hadn't suffered like this since Jiang Qiubai married into the family, and now she was actually getting worse.
Chang Dafeng grumbled and cursed.
"You little bitch! Just you wait!"
Chang Dafeng was thinking of giving Jiang Qiubai a good beating when he came back, to teach her a lesson and show her what it meant to be arrogant and domineering, and see if she would dare to disobey her mother-in-law again.
Chang Dafeng had no worries whatsoever about Jiang Qiubai returning.
After all, she knew what kind of people the Jiang family were. Jiang Qiubai had neither money nor tickets, so it was no wonder that those bloodsuckers would let Jiang Qiubai stay at her parents' house for long.
It won't be long before that little bitch slinks back home.
Chang Dafeng was right; the next day, Jiang Qiubai returned from her parents' home.
Chang Dafeng was not surprised at all, and her gaze towards Jiang Qiubai became more mocking.
Where else could that little bitch go besides her home?
Remarry? That's impossible!
"Mom, I'm home."
After Jiang Qiubai returned, she reverted to her former submissive wife demeanor, as if the previous conflicts and arguments had never occurred. Her attitude towards the Zheng family remained the same, and she even showed some flattery towards Chang Dafeng.
It seems that the previous drastic change in attitude was just a temporary act of rebellion.
Chang Dafeng was very satisfied with this, and said arrogantly, "Heh, you're back. Now you know who's really good to you, right?"
Jiang Qiubai lowered his head and obediently said, "Mom, I was a little upset before because I was worried about Haiyang. Please forgive me."
Whether Chang Dafeng believed it or not, this reason was barely acceptable. She turned a blind eye and pretended that the previous incident had never happened.
The main reason is that her eldest son is still in the tail-cutting ceremony, and the family still needs Jiang Qiubai as a laborer, so she can't worry about so much.
Chang Dafeng raised her chin and pointed to a basin full of dirty clothes, "Go, go wash the clothes quickly!"
Thank goodness that little slut came back, otherwise I would have had to wash this basin of clothes myself.
"Mom, let me do it, let me do it!"
Jiang Qiubai's expression froze for a moment, then he quickly took out a washboard, filled a basin with water, squatted down and began to wash the clothes.
Chang Dafeng assumed that Jiang Qiubai had been mistreated at her parents' home and knew that she had nowhere else to go but her husband's family, so she behaved herself.
She cursed inwardly, "You shameless slut, you only realize who's good to you when you need to be taught a lesson."
Chang Dafeng found a chair and sat down to rest.
Damn, she's been exhausted these past few days, she can finally rest now.
While washing clothes, Jiang Qiubai casually mentioned, "Mom, it's not good for Haiyang to be involved in the tail-cutting association like this. Do we know anyone in the family who can help us out?"
Mentioning this made Chang Dafeng feel suffocated, and she angrily cursed, "Handle my ass! You think you're so smart! Do you think I haven't thought about it? We don't know anyone in our family! Now, the people we know start avoiding me!"
They're all snobbish and opportunistic! They'll kick someone when they're down!
Jiang Qiubai paused, inwardly cursing the old man, then pursed her lips and casually brought up, "I remember Xu Dongliang knew a very capable person before, right? He even said he'd help him out in Haicheng. Mom, how about... we go ask him?"
Who are the people Xu Dongliang knows?
Chang Dafeng's dark expression softened slightly, and she actually started to think about it seriously.
However, I still hesitated a bit. "Xu Dongliang has already gone in. I don't know him. How can I go looking for him?"
What she really wanted to say was that after the fight between her and Dong Siwei, their families had fallen out, so why would anyone bother with her?
Jiang Qiubai disagreed, "Mom, you've misunderstood. It's precisely because Xu Dongliang is in jail that we need to find someone even more. We'll say we're rescuing Xu Dongliang. Anyway, he's on good terms with that person, so they'll definitely help. Haiyang is just doing it in passing. We'll prepare some good things, and they shouldn't refuse. That way, the favor will fall on Xu Dongliang's shoulders."
Chang Dafeng seemed to be deep in thought.
...
With the two younger children at school and not home, and Chang Dafeng sent to find Dong Siwei, Jiang Qiubai was left alone in the Zheng family's house.
Jiang Qiubai watched Chang Dafeng enter the next room, glanced around warily, and then quickly slipped into the old woman's room.
She skillfully used her 'little trick'—using a wire to open the lock on the wardrobe and then rummaging through it.
That's right. After being persuaded by her family these past two days, Jiang Qiubai has finally figured things out.
Even though she had a gut feeling that Zheng Haiyang would achieve something in the future, it was an undeniable fact that he had been arrested, and in such a dangerous way. Most likely, he would end up planting trees in the Northwest. What kind of future could he have? Besides, her previous intuition hadn't been wrong before.
Jiang Qiubai didn't want to suffer along with the past, so he decided to run away while he was still young and find someone else.
While no one was home, she ransacked the house, intending to take the Zheng family's money with her.
I've worked like a slave for the Zheng family for over half a year, no matter what, I can't let it all go to waste.
And the money I earned from pasting matchboxes shouldn't be given to these people.
Jiang Qiubai flipped through the pages, his forehead almost sweating. If he didn't hurry, the old hag would be back.
I wonder where that old hag hid the money. Why haven't we found it yet?
She remembered that it was in a cookie box before... Suddenly, Jiang Qiubai found the familiar box in the far corner of the wardrobe. Her expression brightened, and she immediately picked it up.
Unexpectedly, Chang Dafeng had learned her lesson after losing money last time and actually installed a small lock on the biscuit box.
Jiang Qiubai frowned, cursed the old bastard under his breath, and picked up the wire to pick the lock.
Suddenly, a sinister voice came from the doorway, "What are you doing?"
Jiang Qiubai was startled, and the thing in his hand slipped and fell to the ground.
She hurriedly picked it up, turned around and saw the figure at the door. Her heart skipped a beat, and her face turned deathly pale.
She screamed, "The sea?! The ocean?! You... how did you get back?!"
With a "thud," the box fell to the ground again.
Upon hearing this, Zheng Haiyang stared intently at Jiang Qiubai and said in a sinister tone, "What? Don't you want me to come back?"
Zheng Haiyang glanced at the familiar box and immediately understood what was going on.
That bitch!
His gloomy aura intensified, and his entire being exuded a chilling coldness.
He asked in a somber tone, "What are you doing?"
Jiang Qiubai was jolted awake, instinctively realizing he couldn't upset Zheng Haiyang, or the consequences would be severe.
Her mind raced, trying to find an excuse for herself, and she shook her head frantically, "No, no, I'm so happy you're back, Haiyang, how could you think that?"
"I...I just saw that Mom was tired lately, so I tidied up the house for her. I didn't expect you to be back, Haiyang. By the way, Haiyang, how did you get back?"
Engaging in a male-on-male relationship in public should be a serious offense, so why was he back so quickly?
Zheng Haiyang then withdrew his gaze and said coldly, "It had better be that way."
However, they avoided discussing the subsequent issues.
How did he get back?
Of course, there was a price to pay.
Zheng Haiyang clenched his fist; it was the darkest, most humiliating memory he never wanted to recall...
...
A short while later, Chang Dafeng and her two school children returned, and they were all very happy to see Zheng Haiyang.
Chang Dafeng was so happy that she cried tears of joy.
Her meal ticket is safe!
At the same time, they were also very curious about how their son/elder brother had returned.
Zheng Haiyang has remained silent on this matter.
How did Zheng Haiyang come back?
That day, after he and Xu Dongliang were taken away by the red armband, they were locked in a room. Zheng Haiyang was terrified. He really thought that his life was over and that he would have to go to the Northwest to plant trees.
Who knew, who knew... the next day a deputy director who shared the same views arrived...
Then... Zheng Haiyang endured two days of agonizing hardship.
After being released, he claimed that he had been forced, shifted all the blame onto Xu Dongliang, and limped back home.
Zheng Haiyang's entire demeanor changed drastically; his eyes were sinister, and his body exuded a chilling aura.
He is now Niohuru Zheng Haiyang.
The Zheng family simply assumed he had been beaten and suffered a lot inside, and didn't think much of it.
However, no one dared to provoke him, not even Zheng Haihua, the little tyrant, dared to raise his voice at this big brother.
Zheng Haiyang didn't care what his family thought; he had more important things to do.
Zheng Haiyang, his face contorted with suppressed anger, headed straight for the public restroom.
Damn it, ever since that thing, he's had trouble even going to the toilet!
Zheng Haiyang squatted in the pit, sweating profusely from the pain.
At times like these, Zheng Haiyang felt particularly resentful towards Yu Junsheng.
Damn it! Damn it! Why wasn't he the one who got infected?
It should be Yu Junsheng who suffers all of this!
Why did I suddenly become myself?!
And then there's Xu Dongliang, that bastard! I treated him like a brother, but he drugged me and got me into this mess!
Zheng Haiyang's eyes flashed with resentment.
Those two bastards!
He'll make them pay!
...
Zheng Haiyang is back. The news quickly spread throughout the compound, and everyone reacted in various ways: some were surprised, some were disappointed, some were indifferent, and some were genuinely happy for the Zheng family.
Dong Siwei, being the neighbor next door, naturally found out very quickly.
Dong Siwei has been struggling with whether or not to divorce Xu Dongliang these past few days.
After all, she was a powerful figure he had worked so hard to get close to, and he was too unwilling to give her up like this.
Moreover, Xu Dongliang is destined for great things in the original book. If I divorce him and remarry, what kind of person will I marry? Will it be worse than what I have now?
Dong Siwei had been thinking about these things. When Chang Dafeng came to find her earlier, she was already somewhat wavering.
If she really has such connections, then it's not impossible for her to stay.
Upon hearing the news of Zheng Haiyang's return, Dong Siwei's eyes lit up even more.
If Zheng Haiyang can come back, why can't her Dongliang come back?
This is feasible!
Dong Siwei decided to give Xu Dongliang a hand.
Who knows, after this experience, Xu Dongliang might remember my kindness and treat me even better in the future.
Dong Siwei decided to seek help from the leader who had previously been on good terms with Xu Dongliang.
After all, Xu Dongliang had often sent gifts to this family before, and the two seemed to have a good relationship. Now that Xu Dongliang was in trouble, he had no reason not to help.
To his surprise, as soon as he explained his purpose, the man's wife's face fell instantly. She said she couldn't help him and locked him out.
Dong Siwei: "!!!"
"Hey, hey, why are you like this? Open the door and let me in!"
"Open the door! Open the door!"
"Leader, leader, please save Dongliang, please save Dongliang!"
Dong Siwei was furious and kept banging on the door until her hands hurt, but there was still no response from inside.
Gradually, a few people gathered around, peeking and whispering. Dong Siwei didn't care; she was actually hoping the matter would escalate so that the person would have no choice but to leave Xu Dongliang alone.
She took another picture, and an impatient voice came from inside, "Aren't you annoying? I already said I don't know you, why are you still causing trouble! Get out of here!"
Dong Siwei's hand, which was about to knock on the door, froze.
That bastard, he actually pretended not to know her!
What the hell?! All the things I gave you before were eaten by the dog!
The people inside continued to urge impatiently, "Get out of here! Otherwise, my family will call the security department!"
Seeing that two young men in uniforms had actually arrived, Dong Siwei could only leave, cursing under her breath.
Thinking of all the nice things Xu Dongliang had given this person before, Dong Siwei felt a pang of heartache.
She cursed loudly, "Ungrateful wretch! Snobbish scoundrel! Bah!"
With nowhere else to turn, Dong Siwei went to find the father of the body she was in.
She figured Dong Dalei was, after all, a workshop director; maybe he knew someone.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she opened her mouth, Dong Dalei gave her a dark look and advised her to get a divorce.
