As she spoke, she turned the wheelchair and moved towards Li Shunshui. She moved forward a little, and Li Shunshui took a step back. As he retreated, his back hit the wall.
Huang Wanzhen stretched out her hands and said, "Please let my uncle and cousin go. They are both good people. If it weren't for them, I would have been sold to a brothel by Huang Zhengxiang and his men."
"Catch me now, I plead guilty and I sign my name."
"You, you are Huang Wanzhen? You, you are not mistaken?" Li Shunshui was speechless.
Huang Wanzhen turned to look at Chu Yanzhi, "Doctor Chu can prove that I am Huang Wanzhen."
"Bang!" Chu Yanzhi slammed the table. "This is the captain of the Beijing Police Department! No wonder there are so many false and wrongful convictions every year. Don't you have any brains when handling cases?!"
Li Shunshui expressed his dissatisfaction, "Huang Zhengxiang has witnesses and evidence, we..."
Chu Yanzhi interrupted him, "Then why don't you arrest the culprit? What's the point of arresting the accomplice?"
Li Shunshui: "We originally wanted to arrest them all, but Huang Zhengxiang said that the accomplice traveled extensively to do business, and was backed by bandits. It was most important to get rid of the accomplice first. The main culprit was just a woman in the backyard, and she couldn't escape."
"When a victim comes to report a case, we must first consider the victim's thoughts."
Chu Yanzhi pointed at Huang Wanzhen and said, "I can prove that this is the main culprit Huang Wanzhen mentioned in the report. You can arrest her."
Li Shunshui struggled desperately, "Brother Chu, stop joking. We have known each other for a long time. Don't be so petty."
Chu Yanzhi pointed at his nose and said, "I'm narrow-minded? Li Shunshui, you have a brain full of paste and your eyes are blind. I think your career as a police captain is over!"
Li Shunshui walked around Huang Wanzhen and grabbed Chu Yanzhi's arm, "Brother Chu, don't worry, just let me go."
"Pa—" Chu Yanzhi slapped his hand fiercely, "Get out of the way, how shameless! Who are you calling brother? You're several years older than me!"
Li Shunshui shouted with a worried look on his face: "Brother, can't I just call you brother? If you help me this time, I will be grateful to you."
Chu Yanzhi pointed at Huang Wanzhen with his chin and said, "Don't beg me, beg the victim."
The victim Huang Wanzhen did not make trouble and directly accused Huang Shuhua and Huang Zhengxiang of their crimes with tears in her eyes.
Dong Yuzhuo and Dong Ruixin were released that day.
The reporter Huang Zhengxiang was arrested instead, but Huang Shuhua escaped because of his old age and poor health.
Mrs. Huang Dong cried with joy and hugged Huang Wanzhen, calling her "darling."
Huang Wanzhen was at a loss as to what to do with her. She cried no matter whether it was a good thing or a bad thing. It really lived up to the saying that 'women are made of water'.
The next day, Mrs. Huang asked Xiuzhu to move a box and send it to Furongju.
"Here's a thousand dollars. I'm not very capable, so I have to rely on you to run around. From now on, you'll be the head of the family, and I'll listen to you."
Huang Wanzhen was stunned for a moment, then she figured it out and asked, "You pawned all your dowry?"
Huang Dongshi nodded and wiped her tears with a handkerchief, "I'll pawn it."
Huang Wanzhen: "Why didn't you tell me in advance? I didn't spend much money to find someone here."
Huang Dongshi: "You are a capable person, and the friends you make are also capable. No matter whether they value our family's money or not, you can't treat them unfairly."
"Otherwise, next time we have problems, people won't help us."
Huang Wanzhen: “…”
This personality and IQ are really worrying.
"Okay, put it down."
"Then how do you calculate the expenses of the mansion on weekdays?"
Huang Dong gritted her teeth and said bitterly, "Don't worry about it. Just take care of the three of us."
Huang Wanzhen continued to ask: "How do I manage my sister?"
Mentioning Huang Wanshu, Mrs. Huang wiped away her tears again, "Your sister hates me. After all the things they've been through, I want her and Ah Xiang to go out and be independent."
Huang Wanzhen: "Will they agree?"
Huang Dongshi: "It's fine for them to live in this mansion. I won't give them a penny. Let them figure out how to eat and wear it themselves."
"If they go out, I think I'll give them ten dollars a month."
As he spoke, he secretly glanced at Huang Wanzhen's face.
"Okay." Huang Wanzhen didn't refute at all and agreed immediately.
"One more thing. Liu Qi, who worked in the kitchen, has quit. You and Xiulan should set up a small kitchen for yourselves in Furongju."
Huang Wanzhen: “…”
"Can Xiulan cook?"
Mrs. Huang patted her back soothingly. "You've never done housework since you were a child. Cooking should definitely be handed over to Xiulan."
When Xiulan found out about this, she was also dismayed. She was just a maidservant to a young lady, and she couldn't even cook...
Before the meal issue was resolved, Huang Wanzhen and Xiulan went to Jixiangtang every day.
One is to fill my stomach, the other is to learn how to cook.
"Ms. Huang Dong, you vicious woman, if you don't give me cigarettes, I will divorce you and you will not die a good death!" A shrill cry came from the east wing.
Huang Wanzhen said as she ate from her bowl, "It's been a few days already? How do you still have the energy to curse?"
Huang Dongshi picked up an egg with chopsticks for her and said, "Even eating can't stop your mouth! Don't bother with him, let him scold."
"Madam, Second Miss, there is a beautiful lady outside the door. She said she is here to see Second Miss." Mrs. Wang stepped over the high threshold and said with her head bowed.
Huang Wanzhen: "Who is it?"
Mrs. Wang shook her head: "I don't recognize him. He said his surname is Shen. As long as I mention it to you, you will know it."
Huang Wanzhen actually knew who it was.
Huang Wanzhen asked Xiulan to brew two cups of tea, and she brought them herself, letting Xiulan push them to the front hall.
"Teacher Shen, how come you have time to come here today?"
Shen Junru didn't answer but asked, "What's wrong with your foot?"
Huang Wanzhen: "I went to the hospital a few days ago to have my feet fixed, it's not a problem."
Shen Junru finally felt relieved and greeted him, "I haven't seen you for a while, so I came to see what's going on."
Huang Wanzhen saw that she didn't look strange, but thinking of Huang Meixue, she still spoke without hesitation.
"Teacher Shen doesn't know that I was almost sold to a brothel by someone in my clan."
Shen Junru's expression suddenly changed, "Why is it so?"
Huang Wanzhen covered half of her face with a handkerchief, her shoulders shaking, her voice tinged with tears, "Yes! Why did it come to this?"
"In our generation, there has been no male heir in the family, and the clan has been eyeing this family business."
"I've heard of other families being wiped out before, but when it happened to me, I realized how cruel they were. They really wanted to wipe out my family. Not only did they want to take our wealth, they also wanted to squeeze every last drop of our blood."
"The clan leader came to my house with his son, not even carrying me on his back, and threatened to sell me to that filthy land. My uncle offended them in order to save me, and they sent him to prison."
"My mother sold all her dowry before she found someone to redress my family's grievances."
