Sitting in the empty living room, Qin Lijuan couldn't help but burst into tears.
Finished!
It's all over!
Shen Xiaoqing took a basin to collect tap water, poured some boiling water from the thermos, mixed it all together and brought it to the coffee table in front of Qin Lijuan.
"Mom, don't cry. Take care of yourself." Shen Xiaoqing wrung out a hot towel and handed it to Qin Lijuan.
Now that things have come to this, what's the use of crying?
Given the attitude of the Qin family, it would be harder than climbing to the sky to gain any benefits from them.
Qin Bin was right about one thing. Now, they should think about how to appease the Shen family.
As long as they are still members of the Shen family, those people outside will not dare to look down on them, mother and daughter.
They are still the best.
Qin Lijuan grabbed Shen Xiaoqing's hand and said, "Xiaoqing, will your father not want us anymore?"
Qin Lijuan felt uneasy when she thought of the attitude of the Shen father and son when they left.
"Mom, stop thinking about it. You're pregnant with dad's child. How could he not want you?" Shen Xiaoqing comforted her softly.
"The most important thing for you now is to take good care of your baby. When your brother is born, your grandfather will be so happy to see his grandson that he will naturally forget all the unhappiness from before."
Qin Lijuan was still a little worried, "But from what that damn girl said, that country woman seemed to have given birth to a son for the Shen family..."
Shen Xiaoqing's eyes darkened slightly.
"How can a country boy compare to my brother?"
If that country woman and that kid were really important, Shen Jianguo would not have chosen to stay with them.
"Mom, don't worry about it. Your task now is to relax, take good care of the baby, and let grandpa hold his big fat grandson as soon as possible." Shen Xiaoqing comforted.
"Oh! That's right! How much money do we have now?"
The Qin family can no longer be relied upon.
I really need to spend the little money I have sparingly in the future.
"We have no money." Qin Lijuan lowered her head and whispered softly.
"What did you say?" Shen Xiaoqing suddenly raised her voice.
"Our...money...was...scammed...away." Qin Lijuan explained stutteringly.
"Mom, what are you talking about?" Shen Xiaoqing was anxious.
Although Mr. Shen holds an important position, he is a man of integrity and has honest hands.
Old Mr. Qin felt sorry for Qin Lijuan and her daughter leaving their hometown, and was also worried that they would be looked down upon by others, so he asked Qin Bin to send some money to Qin Lijuan from time to time.
It can be as little as one or two hundred or as much as thousands. Over time, this is really not a small amount.
The mother and daughter basically buy whatever they want and never worry about money.
The closet is so full of clothes that it can't fit in.
Every time the season changes, I can always clean out a few bags to give away.
The food and drinks are all of the highest quality.
While other children were drooling over the fruit candies that cost two cents each on the glass counter, Shen Xiaoqing had already gotten tired of the White Rabbit milk candies.
While other children were carefully trying to wear clothes without patches, Shen Xiaoqing would only wear the latest fashions.
While other children were struggling over whether to drink a ten-cent bottle of orange soda, Shen Xiaoqing had already drunk a fifty-cent bottle of Coke as if it were water.
Qin Lijuan seemed to have thought of something, and gnashed her teeth and said, "It must be...it must be that damn girl Shen Zhihuan. She cheated me and stole our money."
"She cheated us of all our money." Qin Lijuan collapsed.
"She cheated me?!" Shen Xiaoqing's eyes widened, and she couldn't believe it: "Even my New Year's money?"
Qin Lijuan nodded as if she had lost her parents.
"How could you let her fool you?" Shen Xiaoqing roared.
Little Ten Thousand...
She also thought that even if the Qin family no longer recognized them, the money they had was enough for them to spend.
At worst, you can just save some money in the future.
"She wrote me a letter threatening me, saying that if I didn't give her money, she would make my life story public. I had no choice..." Qin Lijuan cried heartbreakingly.
"How much money did she cheat you out of?" Shen Xiaoqing took a deep breath.
"Seven thousand! She cheated me out of seven thousand." Qin Lijuan broke down and cried.
Shen Xiaoqing stood up suddenly, "Let's call the police..."
"But, but we have no evidence?" Qin Lijuan cried.
At this time, there was a knock on the door.
"Qin Lijuan, is Qin Lijuan here?"
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
Hearing the familiar voice, Qin Lijuan stopped crying instantly and rushed to the gate of the courtyard like crazy.
The moment the gate opened, the postman was obviously startled.
"Are you Qin Lijuan herself?" The postman looked up and down at the woman in front of him with messy hair and eyes so red and swollen that only a slit remained, and confirmed again.
He found it hard to believe that the woman in front of him, who looked like a mad woman, was the same person as the woman with elegant manners and soft voice a few days ago.
"Yes, I am Qin Lijuan." Qin Lijuan nodded hurriedly.
The postman confirmed the house number again and again and handed the letter to Qin Lijuan.
As soon as she received the letter, Qin Lijuan hurried to check the handwriting on the envelope.
"Mom, who's the letter from?" Shen Xiaoqing, who came out later, saw Qin Lijuan holding the letter, her face full of excitement, and she came over curiously.
"Let's call the police now." Qin Lijuan unfolded the letter.
Shen Xiaoqing took the letter and glanced at it, "Mom, are you sure?"
"Sure!" Qin Lijuan nodded excitedly.
Even if these words that looked like crawling earthworms turned into ashes, she would not make a mistake.
Fearing that Shen Zhihuan would run away, Qin Lijuan and her daughter did not even bother to wash up. They locked the door and went straight to the police station.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he arrived at the door, he ran into Qin Bin who came to the Public Security Bureau to pick someone up.
"Bin..."
Before Qin Lijuan could speak, Qin Bin had already set up the tripod of the 28-inch bicycle and strode into the Public Security Bureau.
Looking at Qin Bin's resolute figure, Qin Lijuan couldn't accept it for a moment.
Is blood relationship that important? "Mom, it's important to call the police." Shen Xiaoqing reminded.
Without the Qin family's support, that money would be their lifeblood.
No matter what, that peasant must be made to return the money to them.
Qin Lijuan nodded and quickened her pace.
"Are you reporting a case? What case?" The policeman who was responsible for receiving the call also went to Qin's house today. When he saw Qin Lijuan and her daughter coming to report the case, he couldn't help but look surprised.
Qin Lijuan took out the letter from her pocket and handed it to the police.
"This is a blackmail letter from Shen Zhihuan from Panshi Village, Shuangsha Town. She threatened me that if I didn't give her 10,000 yuan, she would tell my secret to others and make me be criticized and scolded by thousands of people."
"Wait, the secret you are talking about is that you are not the daughter of old Qin's family?" The police interrupted Qin Lijuan's chattering.
"Yes!" Qin Lijuan nodded.
"Then why didn't you take out the letter when we went to Qin's house today?" the policeman was puzzled.
"I just received this letter as well." Qin Lijuan said quickly.
"You mean, after Shen Zhihuan exposed you, he extorted another 10,000 yuan from you?" The policeman was speechless.
