Chapter 41: Hidden Truth (2/2)



"I found out." Luo Ying looked happy.

"Yesterday, Li Qing went to the captain's house alone, and then Zhong Ling also went there. When Zhong Ling arrived, she didn't see Li Qing, so she told the captain about it. Then the captain took people to look for her, and found that Li Qing's clothes were almost torn, and she was burying in Zhao Dazhuang's arms. Zhao Dazhuang said on the spot that he would marry Li Zhiqing." Luo Ying said this with some excitement, dancing with joy.

"Did they see such a scene when they passed by?" Cuicui was also very curious.

"Yes, Li Qing was in Zhao Dazhuang's arms when they arrived. This is what the captain's wife said. She was also unconscious at that time." Luo Ying was quite good at getting information.

"And I also heard that Li Zhiqing and Zhong Zhiqing had an argument at the time. Li Zhiqing seemed to dislike Zhong Zhiqing." Luo Ying didn't know what happened to the educated youth, she just heard it from someone, so she was a little confused: "Zhong Zhiqing must be worried about her, so why did she quarrel with Zhong Zhiqing?"

Tang Wan did not mention the conflict between Li Qing and Zhong Lingyu last night, and no one knew who was at fault in that incident.

What's more, Zhong Ling almost followed Li Qing out of the house yesterday. If Li Qing had flirted with Zhao Dazhuang on the way, how could Zhong Ling not know about it and bring people to look for him.

At this time, a woman's reputation is more important than anything else. If this affair is discovered, Li Qing will not be able to survive in the village unless she marries Zhao Dazhuang.

The village is often filled with old bachelors and people with dishonest conduct. They would say indecent things to people like Li Qing whose reputation has been ruined, and would even take advantage of them.

Zhong Ling's actions have left Li Qing with no choice but to marry Zhao Dazhuang. How could he not hate Zhong Ling?

However, she was not in a position to tell Luo Ying and the others about these things. This matter should not be so simple. As for what other hidden secrets there were, it was still unknown.

In the evening, when we were having dinner after work, Grandma Bai also mentioned this incident.

"It was indeed unsafe last night. Fortunately, I asked A Zheng to pick you up yesterday." When Grandma Bai heard this, her first reaction was that it was fortunate that Tang Wan did not show up last night.

"It's really unsafe to go out at night. I wonder what kind of people might be malicious on the street, right, Comrade Qin Zheng?" Tang Wan continued.

"Well, try not to go out alone at night." Qin Zheng paused while eating and answered expressionlessly.

"A Zheng is right, especially now that it's summer. Some people can't sleep at night and just wander around outside. This happens every year, and no one learns from it." Grandma Bai felt distressed.

"Zhao Dazhuang looked quite honest at first..." Tang Wanyu said.

"Indeed, that child wouldn't be such a lover. Besides, Li Zhiqing was still nestled in his arms at the time. They say they were a couple, but I don't think Li Zhiqing looks down on the villagers." Grandma Bai commented.

"You can only know a person's face but not his heart. No one can tell what he is like in private." Qin Zheng suddenly said.

"He's an honest child, don't you know that? You bullied him a lot when he was young." Grandma Bai rolled her eyes at Qin Zheng.

After being scolded by Grandma Bai, Qin Zheng stopped talking.

"You, the educated youth, please help if there is anything he needs help with. Getting married is one of the most important events in life, so don't be too fussy about it now. Zhao Dazhuang's family is poor, so I'm afraid they won't be able to afford anything." Grandma Bai advised.

Zhao Dazhuang's family was poor, which further confirmed Tang Wan's guess. Even if Li Qing wanted to find someone, he would not look for someone whose family could not even make ends meet.

There is indeed a hidden story behind this incident.
