Chapter 41

Lian Fengying was now very glad that Tian Zhongmei came along.

Tian Zhongmei was still persuading her, "You also know that my younger sister has a misunderstanding of me and doesn't like the two of us. So when the time comes, you go in by yourself, and we will wait for you nearby. If you can convince my younger sister, you can come out and call us, okay, mom?"

At this point, Tian Zhongmei and Qin Jun had already thought about it. They had offended Qin Xiang before, and they didn't know if Qin Xiang's anger had subsided. They let Lian Fengying fight on the front line first. If she could convince her, that would be the best, and they could also benefit from it. Even if she couldn't, they wouldn't lose anything. It was also a good opportunity for Lian Fengying and the villagers to see that Qin Xiang only cared about money and not relatives.

Hearing her say this, Lian Fengying was still a little uneasy. She went out without telling Qin Baotian this time. If Qin Baotian knew about this, he would scold her.

But then she thought it through. After all, she was Qin Xiang's mother. What was wrong for a mother to visit her daughter and think about her daughter?

Lian Fengying breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Don't worry. Although Xiangxiang is a little stubborn about getting married, she is still very filial to me and your father."

Tanaka Mei didn't really believe this, but she had heard that Qin Xiang was very good at making money, and she, a girl, couldn't make so much money for what? She had to have a man to manage the money. Her second marriage would not be good or safe, so her own elder brother would be the right person.

So Tanaka Mei had a beautiful idea, thinking that the money was hers, and she could do whatever she wanted. How wonderful it would be.

"Go quickly, Qin Jun and I will be waiting for your good news here."

Encouraged, Lian Fengying breathed a sigh of relief and walked towards the courtyard where Qin Xiang lived, turning back every three steps.

But after she went there, she was stunned. There was a big lock on the door, and the person was not at home at all.

"Where have you been? Did you not come back from the gathering?" Lian Fengying came back disappointedly and said to Tian Zhongmei, "There's no one at home. Did you not come back from the gathering?"

Qin Jun frowned, "That's possible. Then you go to the door and wait. We won't go back tonight."

"Ah?" Lian Fengying wanted to say that she should go back, but Qin Jun didn't want to. After thinking about it, Lian Fengying came back again. It was not easy for her to come here, so she really couldn't leave like this. So he squatted at the door and waited. It gets

dark early in winter, and they go out late. In fact, Tian Zhongmei and Qin Jun had the idea of ​​staying at Qin Xiang's place for one night because it was too late. As long as she didn't leave, there would be a chance. Could Qin Xiang still drive them out in the middle of the night?

Unfortunately, man proposes, God disposes. They waited from the afternoon until dark, but no one came back.

Lian Fengying and Tanaka Mei were cold and hungry. Lian Fengying was the kind of person who devoted herself to others and gave up herself. All the good fabrics and cotton in the house were used by her husband and son. Her cotton-padded clothes were still the same as before, thin, hard and not very warm. They had been frozen for so long that they were already frozen through.

Lian Fengying went to Qin Jun trembling, "Why don't we go back? We don't know when the third brother and your sister will be back. If it doesn't work, we can go to the second brother..." "

You can't go to the second brother." Qin Jun felt particularly uncomfortable when he thought of Qin Hai's half-smiley face. He would rather deal with the third brother than Qin Hai. It is said that a barking dog bites, and Qin Hai is just that kind of person. He has been as cunning as a beehive of coal since he was a child. He is different from the reckless Lao San. Qin Jun is most afraid of Qin Hai. "Mom, Qin Xiang has settled down here. Sooner or later, she will come back. We will wait here. Can she stay out all night?"

Lian Fengying hesitated, sighed, and squatted again.

It happened that Mrs. Liu Meifeng went out to buy soy sauce. She saw two people looking around at the entrance of the alley and became alert. After a closer look, she saw a person squatting at the door of her yard. Could this be a robber?

She heard that the girl who rented her house was making money as a self-employed person.

That was her house, and she couldn't let thieves in.

In the past, Mrs. Liu would have called for help, but since Qin Xiang had called the police once, she had become more cautious and knew to ask for help when there was danger.

The Qin Jun couple had been paying attention to the movements in Qin Xiang's yard, and didn't see the old lady behind them at all.

When Mrs. Liu heard the couple say that it was not okay to climb over the wall and get in, she knew that these people were thieves, so she quickly went to the nearby police station.

When they arrived at the police station, the people there were just about to leave work. Old Lady Liu saw the tall policeman she had seen before and quickly grabbed him, "Comrade policeman, there is a thief in my yard, and he is about to climb over the wall to get in."

When the tall policeman heard this, he quickly called the other people and went straight to the yard.

Qin Jun and Tanaka Mei were indeed discussing this matter with Lian Fengying.

Qin Jun said, "Anyway, this is the yard where your daughter lives. You, as a mother, can't stay outside and freeze all the time after coming all the way to see your daughter. Let's at least go in and light a fire and have a meal, and warm up in the house. Qin Xiang is the most filial to you and dad, and will definitely not blame you."

Lian Fengying was not very clear-headed to begin with, and she actually thought that Qin Jun's few words made sense, "Then let's go in?"

But Lian Fengying couldn't climb the wall, so Qin Jun had to come.

So Qin Jun climbed up the wall and pulled Tanaka Mei in from the inside.

Then, before Lian Fengying could be pulled in, the police came and caught them red-handed.

Well, there was no need to go into the house, and they went directly to the police station.

The three of them were all farmers, and they were naturally afraid of the police. Even Qin Jun, who thought he had some experience, was frightened at this time. His face turned pale and he knelt on the ground begging for mercy, "Comrade police, we didn't break the law. We climbed our own wall."

"Yes, yes, our own wall." Tanaka Mei pulled Lian Fengying and asked her to explain quickly.

Before Lian Fengying could speak, Old Lady Liu spat in Tanaka Mei's face, "Your wall? That's my yard. How could I not know who I rented it to?"

Lian Fengying hurriedly explained, "Qin Xiang is my daughter, and my daughter is Qin Xiang. Isn't her yard our Qin family's yard? It's not wrong for us to say it's our own."

Her daughter paid to rent it, so it belongs to the Qin family.

Old Lady Liu and the police were dumbfounded. They didn't expect there would be such a person in the world. The public security comrade looked at Qin Jun and said, "This is a new society, you should get up first."

Qin Jun got up tremblingly, "Comrade Public Security, that's my sister's home. She rented it so it's our home. It's illegal for us to climb over our own wall."

"Bah, how shameless." Old Lady Liu went all out, "Qin Xiang said when she rented the house that it was only her and her third brother who lived there, so I don't recognize anyone else. You are thieves, you are robbers."

"How can it be a thief? That's my home."

Tian Zhongmei started to argue with old lady Liu.

The police officer was so confused that he shouted, "Stop, talk slowly if you have something to say."

While the police were not sure what was going on, Qin Xiang and Qin Yang had already received their goods, 800 pieces of clothing, which filled three sacks. When they arrived, they specially found a tricycle and drove them directly to Qin Yang's room in the guesthouse.

Qin Yang said, "I will stay here to take care of these goods. You go out to buy food and come back to eat in the house."

Qin Xiang nodded, "Okay."

It was getting late, and Qin Xiang hurried out to buy food. When she came back and the brother and sister were eating, Qin Xiang touched her eyelids and said, "Third brother, my eyelids are twitching all the time."

Qin Yang raised his head and glanced, "Right eye?"

Qin Xiang nodded, "Right eye."

Did something happen at home? No, her father was watching her mother, so nothing could happen. Her mother hadn't left the village for so many years, so it was okay if she didn't see her.

Or did something happen in her yard?

No, even if there were thieves, it would be in vain. She had taken out all her money except for the money she paid to Xiangyanghong Garment Factory. There were only some daily household items in the yard, and nothing valuable.

Qin Yang comforted her, "It should be fine. The biggest problem now is this pile of goods. I've been keeping an eye on it. Nothing will happen."

Qin Xiang smiled and nodded, "Thanks to my third brother, otherwise I can't handle it alone."

Back in the room, Qin Xiang took out the paper and pen she brought with her and prepared to write an agreement.

Of course, she would not only pay her third brother. Although her third brother did not pay, he contributed more, and if it was just her, her safety could not be guaranteed. There were no cameras these days, and safety depended entirely on everyone's awareness. Even if the crackdown was severe, there would always be places that could not be seen. With her third brother around, at least she didn't have to worry about safety, and she didn't have to do many of the things that needed to be done.

Qin Xie finished writing the agreement and put it into her bag. This was the first time she had drafted this. She would have to revise it later and give it to her third brother after the revision was completed.

People fall asleep very quickly when they are tired. After receiving the goods, Qin Xiang was in a happy mood and fell asleep almost touching the pillow.

In the Qingshui County Public Security Bureau, the lights were brightly lit. Several police officers took turns interrogating Qin Jun, his wife, and Lian Fengying, and finally found out something.

It's just that a few police officers were a little speechless at this result. They actually wanted to take care of the money after seeing their sister make money. They were really embarrassed.

This mother just wanted to help her daughter, but she actually wanted to bring her son to manage her daughter's money.

Old lady Liu had a very good impression of Qin Xiang and couldn't bear to see her suffer, so she insisted on not leaving. Now she was very straightforward. When she saw Lian Fengying, she couldn't help but ask, "Are you really Qin Xiang's biological mother? Didn't you pick Qin Xiang up?"

No matter how stupid Lian Fengying was, she understood the old lady's implication and looked a little embarrassed. "How could it be false? I carried her for ten months and raised her with great difficulty..."

"Tsk tsk, that's really a curse." Old lady Liu finally understood why Qin Xiang, a girl, ran out to rent a house alone on the second day of the New Year. It was really impossible for her to live there with such a family.

As a result, Tanaka Mei was unhappy, "We also mean well. She, a divorced woman, is not safe. We, as her brother and sister-in-law, have to help. Even if the bones are broken, the tendons are still connected."

Old Mrs. Liu was shocked, "Is she divorced?"

"Yes, divorced." Tanaka Mei said disdainfully, "Aren't you afraid

of having a bad reputation if you rent the house to her?" Old Mrs. Liu was speechless when she looked at this family, and said directly to the police, "I think we have to wait until Xiao Qin comes back before we talk about this matter. These people obviously have bad intentions. How can a brother and sister-in-law say that their sister has a bad reputation? They are hoping that I won't rent the yard to their sister. It's too bad, and their nature is too bad. I guess they are just here to rob money."

The police also meant so. They couldn't just let the person go without the victim coming. They caught him red-handed.

Qin Jun and Tanaka Mei were upset when they heard this. Qin Jun didn't care about being scared of Qin Hai anymore and said, "My second brother and fourth sister are in the county. You can call them to testify for us."

The police heard that they had to call people to question them, so they asked for the address and went to call people.

Most people were asleep at this time. Qin Hai was calmed down when he was called, but Huang Xiufen was startled. When she learned the purpose of the call, Huang Xiufen was a little panicked. Qin Hai comforted her, "It's okay, you stay at home and look after the children. I'll go and see."

Qin Hai followed him, and Qin Juan was also called out from home.

On the way, Qin Juan was very worried about Lian Fengying and Qin Jun.

Qin Hai said to Qin Juan, "Just tell the truth when you get there. If you really don't, I'm here."

The police saw that they didn't say anything else, so they didn't care. When they got there, someone naturally told them what happened.

After entering, Qin Jun couldn't help but shudder when he saw Qin Hai's face, but still smiled and said, "Second brother, you should testify for us. We are all family. Climbing over your own wall is not trespassing."

"If not trespassing, what is it?" Qin Hai looked at them calmly, his expression didn't change at all. He was too lazy to talk to them and said directly to the police, "Comrade Public Security, our family has been separated for a long time. My parents live alone, and my sister Qin Xiang has severed ties with my eldest brother and sister-in-law because of some things, so I suspect they came here with malicious intentions. As for my mother, her mind is a little unclear, and I suspect she was deceived by them."

Lian Fengying didn't dare to imagine it, and stared at Qin Jun with wide eyes, "Da Jun..."

Qin Jun didn't expect Qin Hai to say this directly without giving him any face, and got anxious, "Mom, talk to Qin Hai quickly, it's not like that."

Unfortunately, Qin Hai was unmoved, and explained the entanglement between Qin Xiang and Qin Jun and his wife in detail, shocking everyone present.

In this day and age, ruining someone's college entrance exam is ruining their future. This is brother and sister-in-law, how wicked.

Old lady Liu looked at them and spat, "How shameless! After such a mess, they still have the nerve to come to Xiao Qin and want him to manage their money. Why don't you go to heaven and let God manage your money directly."

Then she looked at Lian Fengying, "You are not worthy of being a mother. You might as well be born as a motherless child. At least you don't have to worry about your own mother colluding with others to plot against you."

The old lady hated this kind of thing the most. When she looked at Lian Fengying, it was like looking at garbage.

Lian Fengying also felt wronged, "I, I...but I beat him and scolded him, what else can I do? We are all family..."

Her words made people speechless. The public security officer said, "This is a crime. We will investigate it thoroughly."

Tian Zhongmei was dumbfounded, "But Qin Xiang has smashed our house..."

The public security comrade said, "Let's put one thing first, you can ask her to compensate for your losses."

Qin Hai glanced at the time and it was already late, "Comrade Public Security, my mother hadn't gone in at that time, so can I take her away first?"

The public security comrade nodded, "Sure, we'll investigate carefully after Comrade Qin Xiang comes back tomorrow."

"No, there are still your eldest brother and sister-in-law." Seeing that Qin Hai didn't care about the eldest brother, Lian Fengying refused to leave, "If you don't take them away, I won't leave either."

Qin Hai narrowed his eyes, "Are you really not leaving?"

Not to mention that Qin Jun was afraid of the second brother, even Lian Fengying was afraid. She didn't dare to look at Qin Hai's face, and sat there, "If they don't leave, I won't leave either."

This was a threat to Qin Hai.

Qin Hai looked unhappy. Seeing that Qin Juan wanted to talk, he grabbed her and said, "Okay, since you don't want to leave, then stay here and accompany your eldest son."

After that, Qin Hai took Qin Juan away.

Seeing them leave, Lian Fengying became anxious again, "Second brother."

Qin Hai didn't even turn his head.

Old Mrs. Liu was also preparing to go back. She glanced at them with disgust and said, "You are unworthy of being a mother and a brother."

Outside the Public Security Bureau, Qin Juan was a little worried, "Second brother, will it be bad for mom to be there?"

"She is not afraid, so what should you be afraid of?" Qin Hai said casually, "Since she wants to accompany the eldest brother and sister-in-law, then just accompany her. If you force her to leave, she will probably blame us."

Qin Juan was soft-hearted, but she also had some ideas. After hearing what the second brother said, she didn't care.

The next morning, Qin Xiang and Qin Yang took a bus back to the county town. When they got home, Mrs. Liu came to their house and dropped a big bomb.

Qin Xiang was dumbfounded.
