678: What a nosy guy!
Inside, Zhuang Huaijian said awkwardly:
"Ding Pei, get up quickly, don't be like this——"
"No, Sister Zhuang, I can't stand it if you don't agree to me. I beg you to let Wenyue go, okay? Wenyue was just confused for a moment. She has been spoiled by her father since she was a child. I will teach her a lesson. Please let her go, okay? She really didn't mean to hurt Hengzi's girlfriend. You——"
"Ding Pei, don't be like this. It's not Old Zhou who has the final say now. Wen Yue was captured by the army. We have all the witnesses and evidence. It's not like Old Zhou can just release her. It's useless for you to beg me. I don't want this to happen either."
"No, Sister Zhuang, as long as Minister Zhou agrees to help, the army will definitely release them. Please! Please save Wen Yue, okay?"
As she spoke, You Wenyue's mother burst into tears.
Zhuang Huaijian just kept comforting her. He felt very sad to see his old sister whom he had known for decades crying like this.
But what’s the use of feeling sad?
They can only blame themselves for letting their children do what they want, and in the end they will have to bear the consequences!
Outside the house, Jia Song whispered in Yu Xiaoye's ear:
"It's You Wenyue's mother. Should we go in and kick her when she's down?"
Yu Xiaoye said with a headache:
"It's better to have less trouble than more. Let's withdraw."
The two of them slipped away quietly again.
Pushing his bicycle out of the villa area, Jia Song said:
"Come on, I'll treat you to a popsicle."
"Oh, is there anyone selling popsicles?"
"Yes, there's a military service center in the compound. They sell everything. Come on up, let's go get some popsicles!"
"Okay!"
Yu Xiaoye jumped on his bicycle again and followed Jia Song around two small roads, and saw the service center in front of a red brick apartment building.
The service center in the compound is equivalent to the supply and marketing cooperative outside. Many things here are specially supplied, with more sufficient supply and better quality. You can buy things that you can't buy outside.
When they arrived at the service center, they found that there was indeed someone selling popsicles. Jia Song paid for two cream popsicles. Yu Xiaoye walked out while happily sucking on the cool popsicles.
I heard the sound of soldiers training nearby, and followed the sound to find a playground where soldiers were competing on the horizontal bar.
A group of young men in military pants and bare chests were competing desperately. Their eight abdominal muscles and the tendons on their arms were clearly visible. The tense expressions on their faces were both ferocious and inexplicably handsome.
Yu Xiaoye simply sat at the edge of the playground, sucking on a popsicle while watching the younger brothers practice on the horizontal bar:
The compound is great. I can see so many soldiers training every day.
How pleasing to the eyes?
Isn't this young man in a regular army more interesting than those amateur players in their corps?
Jia Song sat beside him, looking at Yu Xiaoye with a squint, his drooling face about to flow, and couldn't help but remind him:
"Hey, I'm drooling!"
Yu Xiaoye quickly took a sip and said with emotion:
"So handsome—"
“…”
"But he's not as handsome as Brother Heng."
“…”
"Brother Heng must have been the most handsome guy in the entire compound back then, right?"
“…”
Jia Song felt that he couldn't even eat the popsicle.
It would be better to kick someone when he’s down!
Yu Xiaoye was still staring at the shirtless men, and Jia Song couldn't bear it any longer. If he accidentally fell in love with one of them and ran away with him, he couldn't bear the responsibility.
Jia Song stood up, holding a popsicle and yelling at the soldiers in training:
"Hey, can you guys please pay attention to your military appearance? Training shirtless is ridiculous! Put on some clothes!"
When Yu Xiaoye saw that Jia Song was shouting at people so arrogantly and was not afraid of being beaten, he was so scared that he stood up quickly.
The soldiers who were training were also startled and all stopped training to look at Jia Song. Perhaps because they saw that Jia Song did not look familiar and was not wearing a military uniform, they were a little dissatisfied and their eyes were full of provocation.
However, they were frightened by Jia Song's bossy attitude. Most people would not dare to shout at the top of their voices in the courtyard, so even though they were dissatisfied, they did not dare to cause trouble for Jia Song - if he was a relative or son-in-law of a leader, they could not afford to offend him.
So they all put on their shirts silently, covering up the eye-catching tendon meat and pectoral muscles.
Yu Xiaoye rolled his eyes at Jia Song: What a nosy guy!
Jia Song grinned proudly:
"Can't see it?"
After they finished their popsicles, they walked back to Zhou's house.
I went in only after I heard no movement inside.
After returning home, Yu Xiaoye heard from Zhuang Huaijian that on this day, You Wenyue's mother Ding Pei asked people for help everywhere. She first went to ask Zhou Jingru for help. Zhou Jingru didn't see her, so he came to the house to ask Zhuang Huaijian for help. He also wanted to ask Yu Xiaoye and Zhou Ziheng for help, but fortunately, these two were not at home.
He also asked for help from a few old acquaintances who had a good relationship with the You family.
I searched around, but there was no progress.
Because this time, Juventus stepped on a nail.
If she had injured someone else with a knife, the relationship with the You family might have kept her safe, but this time the person she wanted to hurt was Zhou Jingru's daughter-in-law, which completely angered Zhou Jingru. Zhou Jingru was determined to deal with it seriously, and no one dared to speak for You Wenyue.
So, no matter how hard Yu Wenyue's mother tried, it was of no use in the end.
You Wenyue's mother Ding Pei finally went to the Jia family to ask Jia Zan's parents to help plead for mercy for the sake of the child. The child is only one and a half years old and cannot be without a mother.
However, Jia Zan's parents had already lost their hearts. They would rather their grandson be without a mother than have You Wenyue released to continue to harm their family.
Just because of a You Wenyue, the eldest son's marriage is unhappy, the youngest son is unwilling to go home, and the only grandson is monopolized by the old couple of the You family all day long. Until now, when something happened to the You family and they were unable to take care of themselves, they sent the child to the Jia family.
The Jia family has long been full of opinions
However, due to the status of the You family in the compound and his son's face, he had been forbearing and had not acted violently.
Now that Zhou Jingru has taken action to deal with the You family, they are feeling very happy. How could they possibly plead for the You family again?
Therefore, You Wenyue's mother Ding Pei pleaded everywhere, but in the end, nothing was achieved. Her husband was still lying in the hospital bed and needed someone to take care of him. He could not speak clearly, and her daughter was still detained and could not even see her.
No one dared to believe that the You family, which had been so powerful the day before, suddenly collapsed.
The verdict on You Wenyue came out unusually quickly. Everyone thought the case would take some time to try, but before the Zhou family held their wedding banquet, the verdict came out. You Wenyue was sentenced to ten years in prison for knife wounding and was sent to a remote military farm in the northwest for labor reform.
When the verdict came down, Zhou Ziheng's agricultural reclamation conference had also ended.
The next day, the Zhou family held the most grand wedding banquet with the largest number of guests in the history of the entire compound for Zhou Ziheng and Yu Xiaoye at home.
