She won't clear her name; she'll throw away all the scum.

She shouted that she hadn't committed a crime, that Old Chen had injured himself, and that it had nothing to do with her.

Everyone, including the victim Chen Weiguo, said that Yang Su treated Old Chen very badly, and many neighbors saw her beating the paralyzed Old Chen.

Yang Su felt guilty and her voice grew louder and louder. Even when she was locked in the interrogation room, she was still shouting that she was innocent.

Old Chen needed to stay in the hospital for a few days, so Chen Xiangnan and the others went back first.

Just as I left the ward, I ran into Chen Xianghong, who had come alone. It seemed that Yu Hongzhen had gone on another mission.

"Don't go in, Xiang Hong, Dad's not dead." Chen Xiangnan stopped her. "You can sleep at Mom's tonight, and don't go back."

Chen Xianghong frowned, her eyes still showing exhaustion. "Second brother, when did you get back? Why is Dad putting everyone through this?"

Chen Xiangnan: "I just got back today."

Chen Xiang was yelled at, "Is there still anyone able to stay at Dad's place? You didn't even tell me you were coming back, so I could have made some arrangements for you, or at least had someone clean the house. Where are you going to sleep tonight?"

Chen Xiangnan: "Let's stay at Hu Jie's house for the night. Lingling is still at Aunt Yin's house."

Chen Xianghong: "Third brother, are you sleeping on Mom's side?"

Chen Xiangbei shook his head, "I've been sleeping at the factory manager's house lately, hehe."

The kid finally managed to squeeze into Director Song's house.

The group decided to visit their father again tomorrow, and Yang Su would also go and find out some news about him tomorrow.

It's a fact that she almost killed someone; she should finally learn her lesson this time.

Unexpectedly, Old Chen became confused again after only a few days of recovery.

When the children came to see him and were preparing to take him home from the hospital, Old Chen sighed deeply, as if to say, "Eldest brother, second brother, Xiang Hong, and third brother, why don't we ask the police to release Yang Su and let's not pursue this matter anymore?"

Everyone turned in unison to look in Old Chen's direction, their eyes filled with disbelief.

Chen Xiangdong was the first to lose his temper, "Dad, you almost died, and you're still thinking of letting her go?"

Old Chen said slowly, "She is, after all, part of our family. If she really goes to a labor camp, our family will have a convict. How can I face anyone in the future?"

Chen Xiangnan: "Dad, you almost got beaten to death and you're still thinking about whether you have the face to go out?"

Chen Xiangbei was so angry that his face turned blue. "Dad, are you afraid she won't beat you to death? Besides, what kind of good reputation does she have in our family? You used to fight with her every day."

Old Chen was in a good mood today, and he made a point of explaining, "What do you know? I married her. If she gets arrested, wouldn't everyone know that I went to great lengths to marry a villain?"

Or are you saying that just because I'm paralyzed, you all disregard me and expect me to obey your every command? I'm the one who's in charge!

Chen Xiangnan: "She was never a good person to begin with. I talked to Lao San until his lips were sore, but you still didn't believe me. Now that you know her true colors, you still want to cover for her?"

"Dad, do you feel like you have no autonomy anymore, like you're being manipulated by us kids, and that's why you're making things difficult for us?"

Old Chen's face turned red when his thoughts were exposed. Seeing that he couldn't achieve his goal, he angrily said that they were unfilial sons who insisted on sending their elder to jail.

Chen Xianghong's patience finally ran out. She pushed Chen Xiangbei, who was holding onto the wheelchair, aside and pushed the old man away without saying a word.

Old Chen stammered, as if he meant he wouldn't go back unless the children agreed.

But Chen Xianghong, who had always been a well-behaved and obedient child, didn't listen to a word he said and went straight home.

As they passed through a small alley, Old Chen got so angry that he fell off his wheelchair and said incoherently, "Yang Su... can't go to jail. If you don't get her out, I... won't leave."

Chen Xiangdong and the others hurriedly tried to help him up, cursing and swearing all the while.

"Dad, if you really don't want to live anymore, I'll find you a rope and let you hang yourself."

"What kind of state are you in now? What benefits did Yang Su give you? Did she save your life?"

“We’re really tired. If you keep going like this, we’d rather all of us abandon you and let you die alone at home.”

Old Chen lay on the ground, "If you don't take care of me, when the comrades from the machinery factory come to offer their condolences, I'll have them report you to the police...Are you...going to the police station or not?"

The children were furious. No one could understand what Old Chen was thinking. Yang Su's verdict would be delivered in a few days, and now he actually wanted to settle?

"Absolutely not," the children thought to themselves. Yang Su's involvement would only make things more complicated. Who knew when that time bomb would explode again? They were already exhausted and didn't want to deal with any more trouble.

Chen Xiangnan was frantically trying to organize his thoughts and brainwash Old Chen, but before he could even open his mouth, Chen Xianghong made his move.

With a blank expression, she grabbed Old Chen's collar without saying a word and started dragging him forward.

This alley was rather secluded and deserted. Chen Xiangbei gave us directions, saying it would get us to the compound faster.

Old Chen chose this place to have his madness because he thought no one would see his miserable state here.

Old Chen cried out as he was dragged on the ground, his legs and hindquarters aching from the friction.

"Chen Xianghong, you... unfilial ingrate!" Old Chen cursed.

Chen Xianghong was completely unaffected. "Dad, since you don't like sitting in a wheelchair, I'll just drag you home like this."

Old Chen struggled violently, shouting, "I'm going to sue you, you unfilial daughter... I should have... let you die in the countryside!"

Chen Xianghong remained unmoved.

Chen Xiangbei and the others watched in horror, wondering why Chen Xianghong had suddenly gone mad.

The filial daughter dragged her father by the collar for 100 meters; it's too cruel.

"Xiang Hong, if the neighbors see this, it won't be good for you," Chen Xiangnan said after much consideration.

Chen Xianghong laughed like a demon, it was hard to tell where she learned that from. Her expression was somewhat fierce. "Who said I was going home? If Dad doesn't behave, I'll drag him back and forth in this alley."

Everyone present was shocked. This method was too underhanded. His father was going to suffer a lot.

Sure enough, Old Chen's voice changed as he shouted, "I won't... say anything more, just let Yang Su... go to jail."

Looks like he's not completely out of his mind; he knew he was going to suffer, so he behaved himself.

Several people quickly lifted him onto the wheelchair, pushing him steadily while observing Chen Xianghong's expression.

"Dad, don't say anything out of line when you run into the neighbors before we get home, or I'll just cover your mouth with my hand," Chen Xiangbei instructed, fearing that he might reveal Chen Xianghong's actions in front of others.

Old Chen didn't say a word.

As soon as I stepped into the courtyard, the first neighbor came over to greet me.

Old Chen was up to his old tricks again, mumbling his complaint: "Chen Xianghong... that ingrate, she wants... me dead."

The gathered neighbors all pricked up their ears.
