Chapter 35: As long as you are willing to drop the case, my family is willing to give you one thousand dollars



Shen Junru was originally asked by her cousin Shen Junyue to come here, hoping that she could help to plead for mercy and let Huang Meixue's father go. However, she didn't expect that there was such a hidden story, which made her speechless.

"Wanzhen, your family doesn't have a male heir to support the family, and you live in such a big house. It's easy to attract people's attention."

"You escaped once, but there will be a second time, a third time..."

"It's easy to thieve, but you can't be on guard against thieves for a thousand days. It's better to make plans early."

Shen Junru immediately changed her stance and began to worry about Huang Wanzhen.

This reminded Huang Wanzhen, and as soon as Shen Junru left, she returned to Jixiangtang.

"Move out?" Mrs. Huang looked at Huang Wanzhen in astonishment.

He even touched her forehead and said, "You don't have a fever, why are you talking nonsense?"

Huang Wanzhen shook her head and got rid of Huang Dongshi's hand. "If my sister can move out, why can't we move out?"

Huang Dongshi: "Have you forgotten how you got engaged to the Zheng family?"

"It was the marriage covenant made between your grandfather and the old man of the Zheng family that made it possible for you and the young master of the Zheng family to be together."

"You two are a perfect match. No matter how poor our family is, as long as the doorpost is still there, the marriage can go on."

"But if you move out, believe it or not, the Zheng family would rather choose their illegitimate daughter who lives here than consider you again."

Huang Wanzhen really didn't know there were so many secrets in it, and was speechless for a moment.

She looked through the door and windows at the desolate yard and shuddered.

The weather is getting cold, it's time to put on more clothes.

Just two days after Shen Junru came to visit, Mrs. Wang came running into Jixiang Hall in a hurry.

"Madam, madam, something bad has happened. The old master has brought Miss Mei Xue to call for justice."

Huang Dong quickly put down her chopsticks and asked, "What happened to your leg? Did they beat you?"

Mrs. Wang: "No, no, I just fell down accidentally."

Huang Dong frowned: "Is it serious?"

Mrs. Wang: "It's okay, it's okay, I'm fine, I know my own body."

Huang Dongshi: "You are almost fifty years old, and you didn't get hurt by the fall. That's because of the Bodhisattva's blessing. Don't forget to burn some incense to the Bodhisattva tonight."

Mrs. Wang said anxiously, "I know. Please don't worry about me. The old man came to visit because of his son. We are short-handed and can't stop him. What should we do?"

Huang Dongshi: "How many people are here?"

Mrs. Wang said, "Two, the old man and Miss Meixue."

Mrs. Huang glanced at the people in the room and said, "There are five of us. We are not afraid."

Huang Wanzhen called out to her, "Mom, come here and eat a few more bites. Fill your stomach first so you can have more strength later."

Mrs. Huang glared at her angrily and said, "At this critical moment, how can I have the heart to eat?"

As they were talking, Huang Meixue came over supporting Huang Shuhua.

As soon as he entered the hall, he knelt down on his knees.

"Please, let my son go."

"Please, let my father go."

In the past two days, their family has looked for many people and spent a lot of money, but they haven't even seen anyone.

Huang Meixue asked many classmates for help. At first they were quite enthusiastic, but after a few days, no one paid any attention to her.

It was her good friend Lin Qingrou who revealed that Director Chu of the Police Department had personally ordered a major retrial of her father's case. Now, no one dared to get involved. She could only find a solution at the source.

"Wanzhen, for the sake of my teaching you, please give my father a chance to live."

Huang Meixue no longer had the radiance of the past, her face looked haggard and sallow, and it was obvious that she had not been doing well these days.

Huang Wanzhen moved her wheelchair and avoided it.

"Teacher Huang, you've got the wrong person. I'm not from the police department and I don't have the ability to save your father. You should find someone else."

Huang Meixue looked up at her with a complicated expression. She didn't expect that she had grown so much in such a short time.

The first time I met her, she was timid and didn't dare to speak in front of the elders, but now she seems to be the one in charge.

"If you're willing to drop the case, my family will pay you a thousand dollars."

Huang Wanzhen turned sideways and replied, "There's really nothing I can do."

Huang Shuhua and Huang Meixue returned empty-handed, but they never expected that just a few days later, A Xiang came back with Huang Wanshu.

She had been married for only a month, but she looked much more mature. She had changed her old jacket and skirt into a new cheongsam. The slit was not very high, but the waistline was tightly pinched, outlining the beauty of the young woman. At first glance, she seemed to have grown up.

"Hey! Let's eat! Look, it's better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early. Xiuzhu, add two sets of bowls and chopsticks."

Huang Wanzhen ignored her and ate her food in silence. When she had a break, she would pick up some food with her chopsticks and give it to Huang Dongshi.

"I'm done eating, you guys eat, I'm leaving first."

After eating and drinking her fill, Huang Wanzhen put down her bowl and chopsticks and moved out.

"Wait a minute, why are you in such a hurry to leave? Are you waiting to be reincarnated?"

"Pa—" Mrs. Huang slapped Huang Wanshu on the back. "You have no manners. Who are you talking about? That's your sister!"

Huang Wanshu curled her lips, sat down on the stool, lazily took out a cotton towel, and began to wipe her hands. "You have meat and eggs on the table, but you are so stingy as to only give us ten yuan a month to live on. It's really unfair."

Huang Wanzhen ignored her and continued to move out.

"Hey! Hey! Why are you walking away the more you talk? Wait a minute, I have something to talk to you about."

Huang Wanzhen rolled her eyes, moved to the door, and asked Xiulan to remove the threshold and put it back after they left.

"Mom, look at her!" Huang Wanshu saw that she couldn't control Huang Wanzhen, so she immediately complained to Huang Dongshi.

Mrs. Huang still wanted the two sisters to be well. "Xiu Lan, stop working. Put it aside for now. Let Xiu Zhu do it later."

"Wanzhen, your sister finally comes back, stay with her for a while."

Having said that, he didn't even bother to eat and went out to push Huang Wanzhen.

Huang Wanzhen had made up her mind to ignore Huang Wanshu. She returned to the table without saying a word.

Having suffered several losses at her hands, Huang Wanshu knew she couldn't beat her sister. Fearing she would leave, she stopped beating around the bush and directly stated her intention, "Well, go to the police station and have your uncle's case dismissed. Great-grandfather said he'll give our family a thousand dollars."

Huang Wanzhen suddenly sat up straight, staring coldly at Huang Wanshu. "From now on, you don't have to come back to get your salary. Don't you think ten yuan a month is too little? I won't give it to you!"

Huang Wanshu was so angry that she started to yell, "Do you have the final say in this family? I'm the eldest daughter, and Ah Xiang is marrying into the family. The son I give birth to in the future will be the head of the Huang family. What are you doing with your superiority?"

Huang Wanzhen clenched her fists, her knuckles turning white. Suddenly, she loosened her hands, turned her wheelchair and moved out without saying a word.

Mrs. Huang stretched out her hand, wanting to stop her, but when she saw the coldness in her eyes, she subconsciously retracted her hand.
