Chapter 18
When the flashlight came towards him, Wang Junsheng subconsciously raised his arms to cover his eyes. However, Cui Hong hugged his waist tightly at this time, trembling all over.
Wang Junsheng's whole body froze, and he hurriedly pushed Cui Hong away, put on his clothes and ran away.
But Cui Hong knew her plan had succeeded. She was nervous and scared, but also a little excited. How could she let Wang Junsheng go at this moment? She hugged Wang Junsheng tightly and cried, "Brother Junsheng, what should I do? What should I do? Are you going to abandon me?"
Wang Junsheng didn't know what to do. He just wanted to put on his clothes and leave, or he'd be finished. He felt a little annoyed and blamed Cui Hong. It was all because of Cui Hong that he seduced him, otherwise he wouldn't be like this.
But Cui Hong seemed terrified and didn't give Wang Junsheng a chance to escape. She held him tightly and refused to let go. "Brother Junsheng, please don't ignore me."
Wang Junsheng ripped at her arm and said urgently, "Let go."
"Brother Junsheng!" Cui Hong's voice trembled and grew louder. "Are you so heartless?"
Wang Junsheng watched the group of people approaching, anxious and angry. He reached out to pull Cui Hong away. Tears streaming down her face, Cui Hong leaned against the haystack and clung to him, refusing to let go. "Brother Junsheng, let's go to hell together. I'm not afraid."
Wang Junsheng was anxious, "You are not afraid, but I am."
But Cui Hong refused to let go, "I'm not afraid, and you are not allowed to be afraid either. Don't even think about abandoning me." Things have come to this point, and every step is going according to her ideas. How could she give Wang Junsheng a chance to escape.
Faced with such a commotion, the people who caught the adulterer would not let them go easily. Several people surrounded them from the front and back and trapped them there.
In a blink of an eye, the people who were catching the adulterer approached. Wang Xiao stood at the front, with several men and women behind him. Several flashlights shone over and shouted excitedly, "No one can escape..."
However, she suddenly saw the adulterer's face clearly and was stunned. "Third, Third Brother?"
The young men and women behind him were also stunned. When Wang Xiao said he would take them to see something good, they thought it was something else. They didn't expect that they were going to see Wang Xiao's third brother having an affair!
If a college student were to cheat on someone, it would be a huge incident.
A young man saw Cui Hongle in Wang Junsheng's arms. Her fair skin was exposed, and under the light of the flashlight, it was white and delicate. The young man whistled, "Cheating, caught in adultery."
There was chaos with people booing, shouting, crying, and laughing.
Wang Xiao quickly turned around and stamped his feet anxiously, "No shouting, no one is allowed to shout. Everyone, leave quickly, I beg you."
"If you said you wouldn't shout, then don't shout. Didn't you call us here? So we shouted." A young man laughed heartily, shouting excitedly about catching an adulterer. This was a rare sight in recent years, and the person's sister had brought them here. How could they easily let go of such a commotion?
Wang Xiao regretted it so much. She thought Cui Hong had called her here to see Qin Xiang cheating, but she actually saw her third brother cheating. She shone her flashlight on the woman in her third brother's arms and finally saw that it was Cui Hong. Wang Xiao was furious. "Cui Hong, you bitch! You lied to me."
At this point, Wang Xiao knew everything. She and her third brother were both schemed against by the bitch Cui Hong, who was using her dislike for Qin Xiang as a trap for her.
Wang Xiao was both angry and anxious, wishing she could tear Cui Hong apart alive. She closed her eyes and went to get clothes for her third brother to wear.
The few young men that Wang Xiao called out to were all the weirdos in the village. They were now trying to stop Wang Xiao from helping. There were also people not far away who heard the noise and ran towards this side, shouting as they ran, fearing that the people who were making dumplings and having fun at home wouldn't hear them.
Wang Junsheng's escape route was blocked, and he collapsed there, his whole body limp. He had only one thought in his mind: It's over. Cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he pleaded with the men to let him go in a trembling voice. But no one would pay any attention to him.
"Please, please let me go..."
On New Year's Eve, some people make dumplings at home, some play with firecrackers outside, some play hide-and-seek on the streets, and some gather at home to play cards.
After the shrill cry, the whole Wangjiazhuang became lively. People with nothing to do ran out to watch the fun.
The Wang family was no exception. Cai Hongyan had just gone to the bathroom when she heard this voice. She excitedly shouted into the house, "Mom, someone's caught cheating. I'm going to check it out."
After saying that, he ran out at an incredibly fast speed.
Although Cui Lianhua was also interested, she felt vaguely uneasy, and her right eyelid kept twitching. She rubbed her eyelid to suppress her anxiety and cursed, "You only know how to join in the fun instead of working properly all day long."
The second daughter-in-law, Yu Qiaomei, shrank her neck and made dumplings obediently. She didn't dare to go out to watch the fun because she didn't have the confidence.
In the side room, Qin Xiang naturally also heard Cai Hongyan's shouting. She had a premonition that the people who were arrested were Cui Hong and Wang Junsheng. If it was the two of them, she would have to divorce tonight while the chaos was going on, otherwise she didn't know what would happen after tonight.
Looking at the room, Qin Xiang didn't feel any reluctance to leave. Her distant memories couldn't bring back the feeling when she married Wang Junsheng. She was once in despair. At that time, she might have also hoped for a happy marriage, but now she only hoped to escape from this cage and run towards a wider world.
The 1980s was an era of gold and silver. With the opportunity, it all depended on whether she had the ability to carve out a name for herself in the world.
In her previous life, when they divorced, Wang Xiao scolded her for not knowing how to be content, saying that without Wang Junsheng, Qin Xiang was nothing. He said that Qin Xiang had wrinkles around her eyes and her figure was out of shape, and she was not worthy of her third brother.
But in this life, she wants to let these people see that even if she is a divorced woman, she will not lose to anyone. She wants to use her own abilities to ride the wind and waves in this best era.
With excitement, Qin Xiang stuffed her only 200 yuan in savings into her pocket. She knew she wouldn't come back once she left, so she had to be prepared at any time. As for the rest of her belongings, she would ask her third brother to help take them away after the divorce.
After a while, Cai Hongyan finally came back to report the news in Qin Xiang's expectation. As soon as she entered the door, she shouted, "Mom, Mom, something bad has happened."
Cui Lianhua's heart skipped a beat, nearly jumping out of her throat. She angrily cursed, "If you have something to say, just talk it over. Why are you making such a fuss? Why are you saying such unlucky words on New Year's Day?"
"Oh, something happened to Mom. It was the third brother. The third brother was caught having an affair with Cui Hong." Cai Hongyan said while panting, then looked up at Cui Lianhua, turned around to look for Qin Xiang but didn't see anyone.
"What?" Cui Lianhua's head buzzed, and she was about to fall to the side. Cai Hongyan and Yu Qiaomei quickly supported her, "Mom, Mom, you can't fall. This is a critical moment, and our family still depends on you to make the decision."
Cui Lianhua was stunned and said in disbelief, "What nonsense are you talking about? The third brother went to play cards with Qiangzi."
Cai Hongyan said anxiously, "What kind of card game are you playing? I saw it clearly. Now everyone has been arrested and taken to the brigade headquarters. Everyone in the village knows about it. I rushed back to tell you the news. What should we do? It's so embarrassing. Our family will be laughed at when we go out in the future."
Cui Lianhua felt dizzy when she suddenly saw Qin Xiang coming out of the east wing. She opened her mouth and said, "Qin Xiang, you have to believe Junsheng. Cui Hong is a vixen. It must be Cui Hong who seduced him..."
"I heard it." Qin Xiang's face turned pale, hiding the excitement in his eyes, "I'll go take a look."
Cai Hongyan felt a little uncomfortable with her pretending to be strong. Just now when she went over to see, everyone was being taken to the brigade headquarters. The third brother didn't even have his pants on properly. Cui Hong, dressed in white, was crying breathlessly and still holding the third brother's arm tightly.
From now on, she can no longer quarrel with Qin Xiang, nor can she be jealous of Qin Xiang. Qin Xiang is too pitiful. Look, she did marry a college student, but the college student is still cheating on her, and the person he cheated on is Qin Xiang's good friend. I guess she can't accept it. So it seems that there is nothing wrong with her marrying a farmer.
Qin Xiang had no idea that Cai Hongyan had an inexplicable sense of superiority in her heart, so she went straight out.
Anyone who doesn't actively watch the fun will have problems. If you don't actively seize the opportunity when it's right in front of you, then you have a problem with your brain.
Seeing Qin Xiang walking so fast, Cui Lianhua thought that Qin Xiang was furious, so she hurriedly took her two daughters-in-law to chase after her. Cui Lianhua asked Yu Qiaomei to quickly find Wang Dazhu, and she and Cai Hongyan went to chase Qin Xiang. "Qin Xiang, wait a minute, listen to what Mom says."
At this moment, Qin Xiang didn't want to listen to anyone and just wanted to get a divorce quickly. She walked very fast and was so happy that she even wanted to sing a song.
How can you put it? You reap what you sow. Wang Jun's life must be the result of Cui Hong's calculations. At the same time, Qin Xiang was very sure that the current Cui Hong was not the same Cui Hong as before. She was either reborn or had another opportunity to know about the future development. The Cui Hong she knew was a very willing person. Since she had taken action, she would definitely rely on Wang Junsheng. No matter what her attitude was tonight, Cui Hong would not spit out the meat in her mouth.
Regardless, this was a good thing for her; her days of waiting hadn't been in vain. Wang Junsheng had been avoiding her for the past few days, and she had nearly grabbed him to talk about divorce several times. Even though the grudges from their previous life were settled, she still laughed happily as she imagined the miserable plight of the two.
Even New Year's Eve was no longer a peaceful occasion. No one was making dumplings, lighting firecrackers, or playing cards. Everyone was rushing to watch the fun, and when they saw Qin Xiang, many of them sighed and lamented, saying it was a sin.
Qin Xiang just forced a smile and said nothing, earning a lot of sympathy from everyone.
On the way, Qin Xiang met her classmate Chen Ning who came out to watch the fun. She hurriedly asked him to go to her mother's house to call her third brother, and then went to the brigade yard.
Qin Xiang walked all the way to the brigade headquarters. The lights were on, and the entrance and courtyard were crowded with people watching the excitement. Unfortunately, the brigade office door was closed, so one couldn't see what was going on inside. A group of people, not afraid of the cold and unwilling to leave, leaned against the crack in the door to listen to the noise inside, and occasionally shared a few details with those behind them who couldn't hear.
Although there are many people with the surname Wang in Wangjiazhuang, there are also many people with other surnames. Since this matter is rare, even the Wang family members want to join in the fun.
When they saw Qin Xiang, someone shouted, "The college student's wife is here."
Everyone looked at Qin Xiang and consciously made way for her.
Many people don’t understand why Wang Junsheng, who has such a beautiful, educated, hardworking and capable wife, was thinking of having an affair with Wang Qingshan’s wife. Isn’t this just looking for trouble?
"Qin Xiang, Qin Xiang, please listen to what I have to say first." Cui Lianhua finally caught up with her, grabbed Qin Xiang's arm, and begged, "Qin Xiang, since I'm good to you, please give Junsheng a chance to explain, okay?"
Qin Xiang tore her hand away and said expressionlessly, "Do I need to explain this? They've already been caught in adultery, how else do you want to explain it? You said Wang Junsheng was seduced, so you knew about this?"
Cui Hong's personality made it impossible for her to minimize the situation, especially since it involved Wang Qingshan's family. She had come here to watch the show, not to play the leading role. Even if she wanted to get a divorce, she had to wait until this farce was almost over and she was sure it would be settled.
After saying that, Qin Xiang walked into the brigade office in the gazes of everyone. Cui Lianhua stamped her feet and followed anxiously.
As soon as the Wang family entered, the secretary Wang Fusheng inside quickly waved his hand and said, "Hurry back and make dumplings. Don't join in the fun here. Keep your mouths shut and don't go around talking nonsense."
Wang Fusheng quickly closed the office door as he spoke, completely blocking out the view of those outside watching the excitement. However, there were still some people outside who refused to leave, peeking through the crack in the door to listen to the noise inside.
It was New Year's Eve, and it was not warm even inside the house. Qin Xiang rubbed her hands when she went in. When she looked up, she saw Cui Hong curled up in Wang Junsheng's arms and crying. Wang Junsheng sat there with messy hair and a dull look on his face. The coat that he usually wore, which was decent and straight, was wrinkled and hung diagonally on his body.
Wang Xiao stood aside and scolded Cui Hong for being shameless and hooking up with her third brother. She said Cui Hong was evil and deliberately led her there just to frame her third brother.
Although Wang Xiao really didn't like Qin Xiang and felt that she was not as gentle as Cui Hong, those were just words said in anger. No matter how good Cui Hong was, she was married, and no matter how bad Qin Xiang was, she was still her sister-in-law. At least Qin Xiang was much more decent and cultured than Cui Hong.
Her third brother is a college student and will be a cadre in the future. Such an outstanding man must have been seduced by Cui Hong, who looks like a vixen.
Cui Hong didn't say a word after being scolded. As for Wang Xiao's accusation that she deliberately lured Wang Xiao over, she absolutely denied it. She just relied on Wang Junsheng's aggrieved crying to make it look like the two of them were deeply in love.
Cui Hong didn't look up until she heard someone shouting that Qin Xiang was coming. Wang Junsheng finally came back to his senses. He reached out to push Cui Hong away and rushed to Qin Xiang. "Xiangxiang, you have to believe me, I am really innocent."
Unfortunately, the man was held by Cui Hong's arm, and he couldn't push him away. When he stood up, Cui Hong fell to the ground with him. Cui Hong hurriedly asked, "Brother Junsheng, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, did you fall?"
Wang Junsheng waved her hand away and just looked at Qin Xiang, who wanted to reach out and pull her, crying bitterly, "Xiangxiang, can you listen to me? Others don't believe me, but you have to believe me."
Qin Xiang quickly dodged and stood next to the captain, saying disgustedly, "Stay away from me, I find it dirty."
Wang Junsheng was stunned, frightened by the disgust in Qin Xiang's eyes and tone. He didn't know why he clearly wanted to break up with Cui Hong, but it turned out like this, and it was his sister who brought people to catch them in the adultery. He didn't want to think about anything else now, he just wanted to explain to Qin Xiang quickly, otherwise Qin Xiang might really divorce him.
"Xiangxiang, believe me, we haven't done anything yet. She seduced me." Wang Junsheng looked at Qin Xiang painfully, his mind turning quickly. As long as Qin Xiang could believe him, he could get over it and save his face. He looked at Qin Xiang affectionately and said, "We have been married for a year. You know best what kind of person I am. I was looking forward to graduating early and taking you out to live a good life. I was just blinded by her and seduced by her. But I came to my senses before we did anything and was about to leave. Qin Xiang, please believe me, I only love you in my heart. Only you are my wife."
Wang Junsheng's words left Cui Hong stunned. She couldn't believe that Wang Junsheng was such an irresponsible person.
But she had that dream for several days straight, and she had to believe it. Even if Wang Junsheng couldn't become the richest man, he was still a college graduate and would be a cadre in the future. He was definitely better than Wang Qingshan. She couldn't give up the position of Mrs. Wang at this moment. If Qin Xiang believed Wang Junsheng, then Wang Junsheng might be fine, but she would be doomed. This was unacceptable.
Cui Hong rushed to Qin Xiang and knelt down, "Xiangxiang, I'm sorry, I'm so sorry. Please forgive me, Junsheng and I are truly in love, please help us, please, I beg you, I will be your slave in my next life to repay you, please."
She didn't say anything else, just cried and said sorry, saying that they were truly in love. A young man who had just participated in catching the adultery shouted outside the door, "Qin Xiang, don't let Wang Junsheng fool you. When we got there, they were having sex vigorously. If you don't believe me, you can go and take a look at Cui Hong's crotch. There might be evidence."
Several young men laughed obscenely.
Cui Hong's face turned pale and then red, and she cried like a pear blossom in the rain. She knelt there and moved her legs uncomfortably as she listened to the young man's words.
Qin Xiang glanced at them and said, "I only believe in facts now." She turned to the captain and said, "Captain, there are witnesses to this matter. I cannot tolerate it. I want to divorce Wang Junsheng."
"no."
"Don't get a divorce."
Cui Lianhua and Wang Junsheng spoke in unison.
Cui Lianhua approached Qin Xiang crying and was about to kneel down. "Qin Xiang, Mom is begging you, don't give up on Junsheng. He was wrong. I asked him to apologize to you. It was Cui Hong who seduced him. You can't divorce me. If we divorce, Junsheng will lose face and you will lose face too."
This situation was beyond Cui Lianhua's understanding. If this matter became a big deal, her son would be in the wrong to begin with. If they divorced, her son's reputation would be completely ruined. Their family would no longer be able to hold their heads up in Wangjiazhuang.
Seeing Cui Lianhua still trying to threaten her, Qin Xiang simply stood behind Secretary Wang Fusheng, making it clear she didn't want to pay any attention to them. She had to wait for her third brother to come and support her. These people had their own theories and could refute anything she said, making it useless. Besides, Wang Qingshan's family hadn't arrived yet, so there would be more trouble later. Once the trouble was over and the Wang family's anger subsided, it would be the best time for her to file for divorce.
Qin Xiang ignored his refusal to cooperate, and it seemed that she was determined. Wang Junsheng's face turned pale, and Cui Lianhua cried, "Qin Xiang, Mom is begging you, don't you want to go to college? We won't stop you, you go to college and go to the capital together, Mom just begs you not to divorce."
"Yes, yes, Qin Xiang, we promised you that you would take the college entrance examination and we would live a simple life together in the capital. I will listen to whatever you say." Wang Junsheng now only hoped that Qin Xiang could forgive him. He felt that he could agree to anything.
Qin Xiang glanced at them with disgust, and thinking about how she had spent so many years with this family in her previous life, she suddenly became angry. She simply took off her shoes, grabbed Wang Junsheng's face and slapped him with the soles of her shoes.
Wang Junsheng's face was burning. He didn't expect Qin Xiang to suddenly attack him. He was stunned by the slap.
"I've wanted to beat you up for a long time." Qin Xiang said viciously. Cui Hong yelled, "Qin Xiang, why did you hit Junsheng brother...ah!"
Qin Xiang turned around and slapped her twice with the sole of her shoe, making Cui Hong's face swollen. She put on her shoes and looked at Cui Hong with disgust, "Shut up."
Cui Hong was already looking miserable from being scratched by Wang Xiao, and now being hit by Qin Xiang made her even more miserable. Wang Junsheng stared at Qin Xiang in disbelief. Cui Lianhua's eyes were red, but she dared not speak, fearing that Qin Xiang would be provoked and want a divorce.
Looking at this situation, Qin Xiang just felt happy.
"You shameless thing."
At this moment, the office door was flung open. Wang Qingshan's mother, Ding Xiaojuan, rushed over upon hearing the news. As soon as she entered, she rushed towards Cui Hong, "You shameless little whore! How has my Qingshan wronged you? You actually cheated on him."
Cui Hong had been mentally prepared for this encounter. When Ding Xiaojuan rushed over, Cui Hong quickly hid in Wang Junsheng's arms to protect her face. Wang Junsheng was caught off guard and was scratched by Ding Xiaojuan. In anger, he tried to tear Cui Hong apart to get rid of her. Cui Hong refused to let go. Ding Xiaojuan's hand missed Cui Hong and directly grabbed Wang Junsheng's face. Cui Lianhua was so distressed by seeing her beloved son being beaten that she didn't care about maintaining her personal image and rushed forward with a roar.
Ding Xiaojuan was already a big and strong man, and now she was in a rage, her fighting power was unprecedentedly strong. Seeing these people scratching indiscriminately, not only Wang Junsheng's face was scratched, but even Cui Lianhua's face was scratched.
"Let my mother go." Wang Xiao rushed forward when she saw her mother being beaten. The aunts from Wang Qingshan's family who had followed her to the door saw that their sister-in-law was at a disadvantage, and at the signal of their husbands, they joined the battle.
The scene erupted in chaos. The women's fight had turned into a mixed bag, and Wang Junsheng, being a man, was effectively sandwiched between them, vulnerable to being caught in the crossfire. The back-and-forth was dazzling.
Qin Xiang was standing next to the secretary as if he was watching a movie. The people from Wangjiazhuang outside were also dazzled by the scene. They had never seen such a fight before. They kept exclaiming, "Wow!" Did they know that the New Year wasn't lively enough and wanted to add some excitement to the fight?
At this time, Wang Qingshan also came. The villagers looked at Wang Qingshan with eyes full of sympathy. They spent a high price to marry his wife, but she was cuckolded before they even had a child.
Wang Qingshan had a wooden face, and despite everyone's sympathetic expressions, he stood at the door, watching the farce inside, and shouted, "Stop it!"
Wang Qingshan was over 1.8 meters tall and strong. He was very intimidating when he had a cold face. When he shouted loudly, everyone who was fighting stopped.
Cui Lianhua looked at Wang Qingshan anxiously, and subconsciously stood in front of her son. She looked at the gloomy Wang Qingshan, fearing that he would suddenly attack and beat her son.
Cui Hong hurriedly helped Wang Junsheng to be an infatuated person. Cui Lianhua secretly said that it was not good and quickly pulled her away, "You vixen, don't touch my son."
"Bah, your son is no good either." Ding Xiaojuan looked at Cui Lianhua and hated her directly. "My Qingshan at least called Wang Junsheng his third uncle, but in the end, an uncle actually slept with his niece-in-law, and she's a college student. How shameless!"
Ding Xiaojuan was actually a good-tempered person, rarely getting into arguments with anyone. Now, she was furious, and unleashed a powerful barrage on Cui Lianhua, scolding her until her face turned pale and red, and she looked like she was about to collapse.
But Cui Lianhua was still unconvinced. "It was obviously your daughter-in-law who shamelessly seduced my son, otherwise my son would have fallen for your vixen. She's just a slut, and only your son is stupid enough to treat her as a treasure. Who cares about her?"
"Your son is shameless."
"Your daughter-in-law is a vixen who seduces people."
"Your whole family is shameless."
"Your whole family is a bunch of vixens."
Seeing that another fight was about to break out, Wang Fusheng hurriedly said, "Alright, stop it. If you have something to say, let's talk about it. Fighting won't solve anything. If you fight again, I'll have to send you all to the police station. Regardless of who is right or wrong, this kind of fighting is extremely bad. It's really too bad. If they really send you to the police, don't blame me for not warning you in advance."
Ding Xiaojuan spat, and Cui Lianhua spat at Cui Hong.
Wang Qingshan walked straight up to Cui Hong as if he didn't see anyone else. Cui Hong flinched and grabbed Wang Junsheng's arm. Then, she boldly said to Wang Qingshan, "Qingshan, I know I'm sorry for you, but Junsheng and I are truly in love. There's no happiness in a forced marriage. Let's get a divorce. I don't want anything, I just want to be with Junsheng. Please help us."
Wang Junsheng's face was pale, and he tried to defend himself weakly, "Qingshan, listen to me..."
"Listen to your uncle." Wang Qingshan's eyes widened and he raised his fist to hit Wang Junsheng in the face. Blood flowed directly from his nostrils, making Wang Junsheng's already bleak face even uglier. He no longer looked like the decent and respectable city man he used to be.
Qin Xiang hid in the corner and glanced at Wang Junsheng's miserable condition and almost laughed out loud. There are still people fighting for a man like this. How blind they are.
Cui Hong screamed, frantically wiping the blood from his nose, and stood in front of Wang Junsheng, angrily saying, "Wang Qingshan, why did you hit someone?"
Wang Qingshan snorted, his eyes red. "Don't you know why I hit you, Cui Hong? Am I not good enough to you? You actually cheated on me."
This is what made Wang Qingshan angry. He had always known that Cui Hong disliked him, thinking that he was not good-looking enough and had no talent. But he really did his best for Cui Hong.
When Cui Hong first approached him and said she wanted to marry him, he decided that he would treat this woman well for the rest of his life. Even though his mother disagreed, he insisted on marrying her. After marrying her, he really treated Cui Hong like a goddess. Knowing that Cui Hong wanted to live a good life, he would go to the city to work as soon as he harvested the crops from the fields. He would buy Cui Hong clothes and facial cream, as long as he could afford it. Even when they were at home, he would wash Cui Hong's underwear and would not let her do any housework. Even though his mother did not like Cui Hong, he always stood firmly on Cui Hong's side and moved out of his home to build the current house for her.
He thought he was good enough to Cui Hong, but he didn't expect that she would betray him. Thinking about the time when Cui Hong suddenly quarreled with him and ran away at night, it was not because he was not considerate enough, but clearly she was looking for an excuse to run away and meet Wang Junsheng secretly.
Wang Qingshan glanced at Wang Junsheng beside him. He had called Wang Junsheng "Uncle Three" for nothing; he'd actually cheated on his wife. He'd been away from home for the entire winter, and Wang Junsheng had been back for so long. How many times had they done it behind his back? And that time when Cui Hong wouldn't let him touch her, it seemed like it was also when Wang Junsheng came back. It wasn't because of any other reason, it was because Wang Junsheng had found someone gentle and gentle, and she looked down on him, a rude man.
Wang Qingshan could no longer bear it and punched Wang Junsheng in the face again. Cui Lianhua and Wang Xiao went crazy and rushed forward to stop him, "Wang Qingshan, stop it."
But Wang Qingshan was like a madman, pulling the two women apart and slamming them onto Wang Junsheng.
Wang Junsheng couldn't utter a word. Under Wang Qingshan's fist, he was just a weakling who could only take the beating. Cui Hong cried and begged, going over to pull him away. "Wang Qingshan, I beg you, please don't hit Brother Junsheng, please."
But the more Cui Hong begged, the harder Wang Qingshan beat her.
Qin Xiang was watching the excitement from the side. Cui Hong's sincere and affectionate expression was truly touching. Two people with such deep affection should be together. They should not bring disaster to others. It would be better to tie them up and kill them.
Wang Fusheng saw that the situation was getting out of hand and quickly called out to several villagers, "Quick, separate them! Stop the fighting!"
A few young men from the adultery-catching squad were watching the fun, not minding the trouble. "What are you doing? It's really lively."
However, everyone was watching the fun, and seeing that the fight was getting fierce, they were afraid that something bad might happen, so they hurried over to pull the guys apart.
Several men pulled Wang Qingshan and said, "Don't fight for now. If something happens, it will be troublesome, and that will be a good thing for them."
Ding Xiaojuan cried, "Qingshan, I told you long ago that this woman is not a quiet one. Now you know, we must get a divorce."
Wang Qingshan's eyes were bloodshot and he could not hear what others said. He saw Cui Hong still circling around Wang Junsheng, so he squatted on the ground and hugged his head.
Such a big man squatting there with his shoulders hunched, looked a little pitiful.
The people watching at the door couldn't help but feel sorry for Wang Qingshan. Getting married these days wasn't easy. The betrothal gifts, the banquet, and all the necessary wedding supplies all cost money. Because Cui Hong was good-looking, she'd asked for a 200-yuan betrothal gift when they got married. Wang Qingshan's family borrowed quite a bit, and they still haven't paid it back. And now, just six months into their marriage, his new wife is cheating on him.
Cui Lianhua sat on the ground, crying and shouting, "What a sin!" Wang Junsheng's face was beaten like a pig's head, and his nose was bleeding. He looked at Qin Xiang pitifully, "Qin Xiang, give me one chance, and I will definitely listen to you from now on. I will take you to the capital, and I will teach you if you want to go to university. You can do whatever you want, as long as you are willing. If you let me go east, I won't go west."
"Yes, yes, Junsheng is right, what we mean." Cui Lianhua felt so distressed when she saw her son. Now she had no intention of controlling her daughter-in-law and just wanted to settle the matter quickly.
Qin Xiang turned her face away and said sarcastically, "I don't care. I still find a rotten cucumber that has been used by others dirty."
Several young men immediately laughed, "Qin Xiang, what do you think of us brothers? You can pick any one you want."
Qin Xiang rolled her eyes and said, "Shut up."
They were all gangsters, but they also knew that Qin Xiang had a third brother who was not easy to mess with. They would just joke with him if he got upset, but they were very mean to Cui Hong and Wang Junsheng, the parties involved in the scene, and said all kinds of unpleasant things.
Wang Junsheng had always been a good child in the eyes of his parents, a good student in the eyes of his teachers, and even his university entrance exams. The parents in Wangjiazhuang used Wang Junsheng as an example when educating their children. He had never been so embarrassed before.
Looking at Qin Xiang's cold eyes, Wang Junsheng felt that it was over.
But he didn't want to accept his fate. As long as Qin Xiang could forgive him and stand firmly with him, this matter could be resolved. At most, people would say he had turned over a new leaf. He looked at Qin Xiang and suddenly knelt down, "Xiang Xiang, please give me a chance."
Qin Xiang was stunned, and so was Cui Hong. Then Cui Hong covered her mouth and cried, "Brother Junsheng, what should I do? You said you would treat me well."
At this time, Wang Junsheng hated Cui Hong the most. He didn't care about her life or death and just begged Qin Xiang.
Qin Xiang felt extremely disgusted. Some older people outside felt sorry for Wang Junsheng after he was beaten like this and knelt down before Qin Xiang, so they advised, "Junsheng's wife, why don't you give Junsheng a chance? It was Cui Hong who seduced him."
"Look, he's quite pitiful. A prodigal son who returns is worth more than gold. A good couple can't be ruined by a shameless slut."
"You can't get a divorce. There's no such thing as divorce in the countryside. Even your parents here wouldn't agree to it."
Before Qin Xiang could say anything, someone shouted, "Even flies don't bite seamless eggs. How can a grown man like him be so unhappy that Cui Hong strips him of his clothes and uses force?"
"Divorce, divorce is necessary."
When Qin Xiang heard her third brother's voice, her eyes suddenly warmed up.
Then Chen Ning came over with Qin Baotian and his wife and Qin Yang.
"Xiangxiang." Lian Fengying hugged Qin Xiang and cried as she entered the room, "My poor daughter."
In a rural woman's mind, such a thing was like the end of the world. How could her daughter have such a miserable fate? She hadn't passed the college entrance examination, and she thought she'd find a good husband and become a cadre's wife, leading a good life. But then, just a short time later, something like this happened.
Qin Xiang knew her mother's temper too well. Fearing that something might happen again, she quickly comforted her mother, "Mom, don't cry. It's okay. People who did something wrong don't cry. Why should we cry?"
"Mother-in-law, getting married is not an easy thing. You can't just let your child do whatever he wants. Junsheng did something wrong, and we accept the beatings and scoldings, but you can't just give up on their marriage. It doesn't matter if you don't consider Junsheng, but you should at least consider Qin Xiang's future, don't you think?"
Cui Lianhua had recovered from her shock and pain by now. She couldn't let this marriage end in divorce. Knowing that Lian Fengying was indecisive, she immediately took Lian Fengying's hand and said, "Mother-in-law, give Junsheng a chance, and also give Xiangxiang's future a chance. Junsheng is a prestigious university graduate after all, and you can still live a good life with him in the future. If you can be more tolerant of each other, won't it be over?"
Lian Fengying was a person without a clear idea. She felt that what Cui Lianhua said made sense, so she looked at Qin Xiang with a sad face and said, "Xiangxiang, why don't you think about it again?"
"Mom, don't worry about this. My third brother and my dad are here. We in the Qin family can't be so spineless. If people say that we in the Qin family don't care about our daughter's life for the sake of face, it will be shameful for our family." Qin Xiang didn't have any opinion on her mother's attitude. As long as her father and third brother stood on her side, the marriage could be divorced.
When Qin Baotian and Qin Yang were mentioned, Lian Fengying instantly gained confidence, "Okay, I'll listen to them." She was a person without any ideas. Her husband and son were everything to her. Qin Baotian had warned her on the way here, asking her not to speak. She couldn't disobey her man. Even if she didn't agree with divorce, she had to listen to him at this time.
Qin Xiang immediately blocked Lian Fengying behind her after she finished speaking. Cui Lianhua couldn't even see her anymore and her face sank. "Qin Xiang, what are you doing? I'm talking to your mother."
"Talk to my dad and my third brother if you have anything to say." Qin Xiang stood there motionless, turned her head away and ignored Cui Lianhua. She really felt it was unnecessary.
Wang Junsheng's face paled, knowing that this matter was truly over. If only Qin Baotian and his wife had come, the Wang family might have been able to persuade them, but Qin Yang was different. Qin Yang loved his sister, Qin Xiang, the most. In the past, Qin Yang had threatened Wang Junsheng to treat Qin Xiang well. He sometimes wondered if Qin Yang had been at home when he and Qin Xiang got married, perhaps they wouldn't have gotten married. Qin Yang had threatened him just a few days ago.
At that time, Wang Junsheng was extremely angry. He felt that Qin Yang looked down on him. Qin Yang was just a gangster. Why did he look down on him? He was a college student.
But at this moment, Wang Junsheng had no other thoughts and just wanted to beg for a divorce.
However, Qin Yang didn't give Wang Junsheng any time to think. He went in and started beating Wang Junsheng without saying a word. Cui Lianhua didn't care about trying to sugarcoat Lian Fengying and quickly stepped forward to protect Wang Junsheng, "His third brother, stop beating him. He's going to get hurt."
"He deserves to be beaten to death." Qin Yang is a troublemaker. He has been in countless fights since he was a child. He learned fighting from a relative when he was a kid. When he was driving a car outside, he also met a few veterans and practiced some moves with them. He knows very well how to hit people so hard that there are no visible wounds after the beating. But Wang Junsheng fell to the ground in pain and curled up like a shrimp skin. There was no trace of the serious look of the college student in the past.
Qin Yang looked at the Wang family with a fierce look in his eyes, "This marriage must be divorced."
Wang Dazhu knew who Qin Yang was, and he watched helplessly as he watched him beat his son like this but dared not say anything.
He took a deep breath and said to Qin Baotian, "Father-in-law, Junsheng was wrong this time and deserves to be beaten. His elder brother-in-law beat him well. But young people are bound to make mistakes. You and mother-in-law should at least give him a chance. As the saying goes, it is better to demolish a temple than to destroy a relationship. There is no young man in this area who is more promising than our Junsheng. If they really get divorced, Qin Xiang will also be married for the second time. What kind of in-laws can she find in the future? It is better to let them live together well. With us elders watching over them, Junsheng will not dare to do anything wrong again."
Wang Dazhu then looked at Qin Xiang and said sincerely, "Old Third's wife, this marriage cannot be divorced. If you divorce, what will you do in the future? It will not be good for you. I will ask Old Third to write a letter of guarantee for you. You go to take the college entrance examination and you go to the capital together. Okay? Dad, please."
"Now it's our elders who are discussing this matter, so don't involve my Xiangxiang."
Qin Baotian looked at Wang Dazhu's honest face and realized that their Qin family had probably been deceived by the Wang family in the past. He only looked at Qin Xiang and said, "Xiangxiang, tell me, Dad only listens to you."
The Wang family was immediately worried.
Qin Xiang said, "Dad, I want a divorce. I don't want to live with Wang Junsheng anymore. I find it disgusting."
Qin Baotian nodded, pulled Qin Xiang behind him, and turned to Wang Dazhu and said, "It's already like this. My daughter can't stand this grievance. Let's part ways amicably and don't make it embarrassing later."
Wang Dazhu's heart sank upon hearing this. Cui Lianhua knew that Lian Fengying was easily influenced and wanted to persuade her, but Qin Xiang blocked her mother's way and said, "Mom, just sit here and don't worry about anything. My dad and my third brother will take care of everything for me."
At this moment, Lian Fengying remembered what Qin Baotian and the third brother had said on the way. She glanced at Qin Xiang and Wang Junsheng, sighed, and sat down quietly. Seeing Cui Lianhua leaning forward and wanting to talk to her, she took the initiative to speak, "I can't make the decision on this matter, so don't tell me. If Junsheng hadn't had this incident, I would have persuaded Qin Xiang, but now..."
"Okay, Mom, why are you telling them all this?" Qin Yang stood there and said directly, "Divorce, hurry up, what are the rules?"
Wang Fusheng asked Qin Baotian, "Are you sure you want a divorce?"
Qin Baotian nodded and said, "Divorce."
The Wang family refused to divorce, feeling that this was not the right thing to do. If they did divorce, Qin Xiang's reputation would be tarnished by her second marriage, and the Wang family's reputation would be even worse. Wang Junsheng was a celebrity in the area, and if such a thing happened to a celebrity and could not be covered up, it would be a huge disgrace.
Qin Xiang laughed out loud, "Since you don't agree, I'll report Wang Junsheng to the police for being a hooligan. Think carefully, these past two years have been a period of severe crackdowns. If I really report him to the police, your Wang family will lose a college student, and maybe even gain two more graves."
The Wang family's expressions suddenly changed.
Qin Xiang was quite satisfied with this reaction. She walked up to Wang Junsheng and said, suppressing her nausea, "Wang Junsheng, think it over carefully. If we get divorced, you can just leave when school starts. No one in the capital knows about this. You and I haven't obtained a marriage certificate. It's just a de facto marriage. You'll still be single after we get married, and you can live your life as usual. If you want to marry a college student, you can marry a college student. Even if you live with Cui Hong, no one will care. If you don't agree, I will go to the capital to report you for being a hooligan, even if it means you die. If the country doesn't deal with you, then I can go to your school to report that there are problems with your lifestyle. I will make trouble wherever you go. You tell me, by then, will you still be able to go to school? Will you still be able to become a cadre in the future? By that time, let alone a bright future, it's hard to say whether you have a future at all."
Does Wang Junsheng not want to divorce her because he likes her?
fart!
A man like him actually only loves himself. Wang Junsheng is afraid that divorcing her would be shameful and embarrassing, while losing her would be a face-saving move. Now that his future is threatened, she has no doubt that Wang Junsheng would be stupid enough to continue to pester her.
"So, Wang Junsheng, you know how to choose what's best for you, right? Instead of getting entangled, why not just go straight to the point? You're a man after all. Don't make me look down on you even now. Do you still want to continue living with me in the future while I hold this as my leverage and never raise my head in front of me again, living my whole life as my grandson?"
Wang Junsheng suddenly looked up and looked at Qin Xiang as if she were a stranger.
Is this really Qin Xiang?
For a moment, he suddenly felt that all this was planned by Qin Xiang, who was just waiting for him and Cui Hong to fall into this trap so that she could achieve her goal of divorce.
He didn't understand why. He had done something wrong, but it was just a mistake common to all men. There had been cases of adultery in the village before, but the wives would just make a fuss and let it go, and they would just go on with their lives.
But why did she want to divorce him so quickly when she got to Qin Xiang? Before this, he didn't think that Qin Xiang's request for divorce because of the college entrance examination was true. But the facts were in front of him. Qin Xiang really wanted to divorce him before, so now she was unwilling to forgive his mistakes and didn't want to give him any chance.
Cui Hong knelt beside Wang Junsheng. When she heard Qin Xiang's words, she blinked and her mind began to move.
Wang Fusheng touched his chin and said to Wang Dazhu, "Uncle, don't be so reserved now. We should get a divorce. Qin Xiang's family has already said that if they don't grant a divorce, they will report Junsheng to the police and accuse him of adultery. They're cracking down on him right now. He might even be left with nothing."
This was a serious matter. Not only were Wang Dazhu and Cui Lianhua scared, but even Wang Junsheng was scared. He ignored all random thoughts and said, "I'm leaving."
