Chapter 236 Qin Weimin is arrested
What? !
Bai Zhenzhu wants to divorce Qin Weimin?!
The crowd erupted again.
This is even more surprising than Qin Weimin's divorce from Aunt Yan.
After all, these two got together before Qin Weimin even left. When everyone found out, they claimed it was true love and insisted on being together no matter what. For this, Qin Weimin didn't hesitate to abandon Aunt Yan and their four children.
So these two true lovers have only been married a short time, and they're already getting a divorce?
It seems that Bai Zhenzhu is the only one who wants to divorce Qin Weimin.
Cheng Jiajia and Yu Junsheng both blinked in surprise, but their focus was on another key point in their conversation.
What is that?
Qin Weimin has been arrested?!
So the question is, why was Qin Weimin arrested?
Yu Junsheng fell into deep thought.
Could it be...?
Cheng Jiajia was also very curious about the reason.
No need for trouble, there are readily available informants.
Her eyes scanned the crowd and finally found her most loyal companion—Aunt Yan.
At that moment, Aunt Yan was eating sunflower seeds and chatting with the people around her, while her eyes gleamed as she stared at Bai Zhenzhu and her daughter.
Judging from how excited she is, she's definitely heard a lot of interesting stories!
You can't go wrong with her!
He grabbed Yu Junsheng's hand and pulled him towards Aunt Cao, saying, "Come on, come on, follow me, and you're guaranteed to get the inside scoop!"
Then, through Aunt Cao's firsthand information, the couple learned the whole story.
It turns out that Qin Weimin's arrest was due to his connection with that man surnamed Wang.
The higher-ups ordered a thorough investigation into Director Wang's case, and the people below naturally dared not slack off. They diligently and seriously examined every clue, which led them to a director at the machinery factory. Then, somehow, they uncovered an old case from the machinery factory.
The main culprit in this case has already been punished, but since the higher-ups are paying special attention to Director Wang's case, the investigators have carefully reviewed this already closed case again.
Upon closer inspection, they discovered several previously unnoticed clues.
Following this lead, they discovered several accomplices, including Qin Weimin.
To paraphrase what Aunt Cao always says, the police officers are following the trail to find the melon, and Qin Weimin is the melon on that vine.
Haha, well done!
The same thought flashed through the minds of the couple at the same time.
Yu Junsheng tried his best to keep his lips from turning up in a smile—lest he get beaten up.
He had long known that Qin Weimin might be somewhat related to his father's death, but he had been struggling to find evidence and thus unable to do anything about it.
Is this a miracle?!
Why does he feel like laughing so badly? Hahahaha!
The old man finally got in!
Cheng Jiajia knew this too, so she was happy for him.
He whispered, "That's great!"
According to their previous speculation, Qin Weimin might have been involved in the death of Yu's father, but he did not play such an important role. Therefore, even if they wanted to send him to jail, they had no evidence and could only do things in secret.
Tearing off Qin Weimin's hypocritical mask, exposing his affair with Bai Zhenzhu, ruining his reputation, turning him from a good person praised by everyone in the compound into an old scoundrel despised by everyone.
This can be considered as a way of venting Yu's father's anger.
But in the end, I still feel a little uneasy.
Even if Yu Junsheng didn't say anything, Cheng Jiajia could sense it.
After all, Qin Weimin is still alive and well, but Yu Junsheng's father will never come back.
Now the wicked have finally gotten what they deserved.
Yu Junsheng was finally able to let out the breath he had been holding in.
Considering how the two of them had fueled Sun Ling's accusation against Director Wang, who could have imagined such a follow-up?
However, this can be considered an unexpected way of avenging him, right?
As they were talking, the topic shifted, and they started pointing and whispering about Bai Zhenzhu and her daughter standing at the door.
"Bai Zhenzhu is going to divorce Qin Weimin?! Is it true?"
"Weren't these two madly in love back then? Even after they got married, they still had to keep flirting. How come they're getting a divorce so soon?"
"What do you know! This guy is just trying to distance himself from Old Qin now that he's in trouble!"
"That's so heartless!"
"Hmph, Bai Zhenzhu was only after Qin Weimin's money in the first place, so it's not surprising that she did something like this now."
“Look at them, this mother and daughter always dress themselves up so smartly, while Old Qin only has a few clothes? And they all look like they’re from several years ago.”
Then everyone looked at the clothes on the ground. They had just thought it was a mess, but now that they looked closely, they were indeed very familiar and had been washed until they were almost white.
Hearing these words, Bai Zhenzhu felt a little guilty. Why were Qin Weimin's clothes all old? It was because she had sold a lot of them to raise money for Bai Xiaohui's second marriage dowry some time ago.
Qin Weimin was angry with her about this at the time. That's just how men are!
Although he was willing to spend money on the mother and daughter out of respect for Bai Zhenzhu, it didn't mean he was willing to empty his pockets for Bai Xiaohui, a daughter with whom he had no blood relation.
Qin Weimin was furious that Bai Zhenzhu had sold all his better clothes without even asking him, to save up for Bai Xiaohui's dowry, which was also a dowry for her second marriage.
Those clothes were all made of good materials, which he had painstakingly saved up over the years. He usually couldn't bear to wear them, and would only wear them to meet guests or to important occasions to save face. He never expected that Bai Zhenzhu would sell them like this!
Qin Weimin felt both heartache and anger, and for the first time since their marriage, he lost his temper with Bai Zhenzhu.
Bai Zhenzhu never expected that Qin Weimin, who was always so obedient to her, would get angry at her over such a small matter. Yes, in Bai Zhenzhu's eyes, it was just a small thing. After all, in her heart, Qin Weimin loved her to death and would give her whatever she wanted. She had only sold a few of his clothes, and she figured he wouldn't say anything.
Unexpectedly, he got really angry with me and didn't speak to me for several days.
This was unprecedented. Even when Qin Weimin was unhappy before, it was usually just...
Bai Zhenzhu was genuinely a little panicked. After all, she still needed him to save money, and she was afraid that if she angered Qin Weimin this time, he would stop handing over his salary to her.
Helpless, Bai Zhenzhu could only curse the stingy man in her heart while acting coquettishly and charmingly, using all her skills to be humble and subservient. It took a long time for Qin Weimin's attitude towards her to improve slightly.
However! !
She never expected that Qin Weimin would be arrested so soon!
Thinking of this, Bai Zhenzhu's slight guilty conscience vanished immediately, and she became confident and self-assured again.
Yes! What does she have to be guilty of!
It was Qin Weimin who committed the crime, so shouldn't I sever ties with him?!
Are you suggesting she wait for this damned man to drag her and Xiaohui and her daughter down with her?
But when she heard these people start cursing her and her daughter for being heartless, cruel, and ungrateful, a hint of displeasure flashed in Bai Zhenzhu's eyes.
She can't have such a reputation, after all, she still needs to make a living from the men in this courtyard and the neighborhood.
Her public persona has always been that of a weak, helpless, and lonely innocent girl.
These are the kinds of smelly men love.
She's their goddess!
If she has such a ruthless reputation, then who will be her savior and do business with her?
No, no, she has to be weak, she has to be helpless!
Then Bai Zhenzhu's eyes reddened, she wiped them with her handkerchief, and her emotions came over her. She sobbed, "That's not how it is, that's not how it is, everyone has misunderstood!"
“We’ve lived in the same courtyard for so many years, don’t you all know what kind of person I am? With my feelings for Lao Qin, I could never be so heartless! It’s just that Lao Qin’s matter this time is too big, and I’m afraid it will involve his family. I don’t care, after all, I have a deep relationship with Lao Qin, and I’m willing to live and die with him. It’s nothing if I’m implicated and have to cry a little, really.”
"But I'm a mother too. My daughter Xiaohui is still so young and has such a long road ahead of her. I can't let her down!"
"What we parents hope for is that our children will have a good life, right?"
“Neighbors, it’s not that I’m heartless, it’s just that as her mother, I can’t bear to see my daughter dragged down by us. She finally found a normal man again… life was just getting better, and then this happened… It’s not that I’m heartless, I have to think about my daughter. I believe Lao Qin can understand, he loves Xiaohui the most.”
Cheng Jiajia raised an eyebrow. This Bai Zhenzhu really had some skills. In just a few words, she transformed herself from a heartless woman who would abandon her husband whenever something happened into a great mother who had to ruthlessly sever ties with her lover for the sake of her daughter's future.
Look, many people are quite moved.
The older women who had been muttering about her just now fell silent.
However, there were also some who didn't believe her and just looked at her with disdain.
For example, Aunt Cao and her old friends.
She muttered under her breath, "Pah! Who is this guy playing?"
"Who doesn't know who? Only those blind old men would believe that!"
Cheng Jiajia gave a thumbs up, "Hehehe, Aunt Cao, you have such sharp eyes!"
Aunt Cao said smugly, "That's right, don't you know who I am!"
They were having a lively discussion over there.
On stage, Bai Zhenzhu had already explained her helplessness and grievances, and finally said in a sweet voice:
Please don't misunderstand me, everyone!
After she finished speaking, she picked up her small handkerchief and wiped her eyes again. Her red eyes, combined with her sorrowful expression, made her look like a pitiful and delicate little white flower.
Cheng Jiajia and Yu Junsheng: "..."
Ugh!!!
No, ma'am, how old are you? Is it appropriate to make that face anymore?
Aren't you afraid of scaring people so badly they'll eat their dinner from the night before?!
Yu Junsheng said he really couldn't take it anymore, and his face even turned a little green.
However, just because he doesn't buy into this doesn't mean others won't.
Aunt Cao was right; only some old men believed Bai Zhenzhu's nonsense.
As I just mentioned, Bai Zhenzhu is some people's goddess.
A goddess sheds tears, who can resist that?
Especially those grown men with ulterior motives, not only believed it, but also felt even more sorry for the goddess when they saw her in tears.
Everyone wished they were in the situation and offered Bai Zhenzhu comforting words like, "Hey, Zhenzhu, you didn't want this to happen, but there was nothing we could do."
"We're all parents, we're all doing this for our children, I understand!"
"It's better to sever ties sooner rather than later, so that Lao Qin's affairs don't implicate you. How will you, a widow and her orphan, survive then?"
"I suppose Lao Qin can understand why he came."
Qin Weimin: ...Thank you, but I don't understand!
Whether Qin Weimin understood or not, the older men present all understood on his behalf.
Just when everyone couldn't help but say, "Let it go, let's not make things difficult for them, a widow and her child."
A dark figure rushed out of the Qin family's house with a "howl".
"Bai Zhenzhu, you bitch! Fine, I'll divorce you! But give me back my money!"
Previously, Qin Weimin, that sucker, was there to stop them. He was happy to let those wretched mother and daughter spend his money, and they had no reason to want it even if they wanted it.
But things are different now. Bai Zhenzhu herself said that she and Qin Weimin have nothing to do with each other anymore!
She must return the money she squeezed out of Qin Weimin!
