Quick Transmigration: Leisure

Yao San dared not acknowledge Tao Yong as his younger brother.

As long as he knew that the other person was still living outside, he had hope to persevere.

The subsequent process proceeded very quickly, just as the Tao family had intended to attach themselves to Xia Youmi and the others.

Old Tao (Yaoji) had countless lives on his hands and was sentenced to death.

As an accomplice and a witness, Tao was sentenced to life imprisonment and deprived of her political rights for life.

Tao was still being detained and interrogated when he was reported by the public for having murdered someone while working outside.

Now, it is being retried as a separate case, involving victims including women and children, and the crimes are simply heinous.

Thus, Sister-in-law Tao chose to divorce. She returned to her parents' home, and abandoned Tao Yong, leaving everything to her third son.

She's going to embrace a new life, after all these years of trying to cover up the fact that her eldest child couldn't have any more.

Tao's wife kept seeing doctors and taking medicine, just so as not to let down Tao's seemingly cheap but devoted love for her.

As it turns out, he was a pervert.

Loyalty earned him a lifetime of ridicule.

Tao Ping'er and her husband were mainly involved in bribery, embezzlement, and abuse of power.

Depending on the amount of money involved and the severity of the offense, the sentence could reach life imprisonment, even if they hand over all the stolen goods and money.

Furthermore, the seized documents involved the cover-up and appeasement of murderers. This caused a huge uproar, resulting in the downfall of many officials, with even the least convicted reportedly being sent to various farms for re-education.

The newly appointed successor in the city government is a relatively young talent who was transferred from the provincial capital.

His ideas were very much in line with Zheng Yi's. The two cooperated with each other and set an example of daring to be the first for the future development of their county, city, and even the provincial capital and the whole country.

Besides coming from a bandit's den, the blacksmith was also guilty of illegally forging weapons. After all his possessions were seized and the fines were collected, given his good attitude in admitting his wrongdoing, he was imprisoned for three months and then sent to a smelting plant in another county for rehabilitation, to maximize his value.

Due to the tug-of-war among various parties, and considering his surrender and contributions in helping solve multiple cases, Yao San was ultimately sentenced to only three years. He was disabled, behaved well in prison, and was also granted permission to start over in the county town where the blacksmith lived.

This is the greatest redemption for him.

He recalled the look in his younger brother's eyes, yearning for him to become a descendant of a hero.

He pressed his throat down tightly.

never mind,

Yao San still only has one foolish younger brother, the blacksmith.

This way, it's good for everyone.

Tao Guo'er was innocent and even made a meritorious report, so she can go home directly. She may have many ideals and ambitions, but for now, she can't leave this land unless she gets married.

However, the psychological trauma she already had, coupled with the immense pain of this family accident, shattered her hopes of ever getting married.

She took Tao Tianbao from her only healthy brother and raised him. It was partly out of a sense of responsibility and to lighten her burden, to secure her future, and also out of sympathy and affinity for the second child.

If the siblings don't take care of it, the child's fate is uncertain.

Their houses and land in the village were taken back, and each person was only given a thatched hut.

They were only able to find refuge because of their years of kindness and the mobilization of county leaders to convey the idea that children should not be harmed and that the next generation should not seek revenge.

They were simply ostracized by the villagers and had to take a detour.

At least I can survive.

However, for Li Xing, the truth would be devastating once he learned it.

For years, he has been stroking the photos sent from his home, his heart filled with hatred.

He used to hate his origins and the heartlessness of his family.

I hate that money is unclean, and I hate my own incompetence.

That day, he finally fainted in the dock, surrounded by laughter and frantic remorse. They mocked his years of misjudgment and pride, his self-redemption, and his righteous act of turning himself in.

He dared not go up the mountain to look around, unwilling to sing a song of remembrance for his family, never imagining how sad they would be down there.

I dare not think about it too much.

Li Xing was taken to the hospital by Grandma Ruan and others.

After confirming Xia Youmi's condition, Tao Pu also went to keep watch over Li Xing's illness.

He was deeply shocked.

The situation forced him to be strong.

As for Xia Youmi, the accusation that she helped the bandits is basically unfounded.

Hu Xiaodan and Teacher Gu were indeed the evildoers committed by Yaoji. He had his own tools and helpers. Every seemingly normal tool in the Tao family actually had other uses.

But she has other accusations that need to be fully clarified, which will require considerable effort.

The charge of adultery was overturned immediately upon denials by all the suspected male partners.

There's no question of her destroying the marriage; she's the victim.

As for bribery.

Fortunately, the instructor has returned, and his voice and the group's research findings have demonstrated Xia Youmi's integrity in her work.

Taking advantage of the situation, you can also apply to take her to a farm in the south to find plants.

The experiment is now entering a critical phase, and her efforts are still needed.

Time flies by.

Xia Youmi returned to the courtyard and gave it a thorough cleaning before heading to the hospital where Li Xing was. All the way there, she pondered how to elegantly continue to send Tao Pu to her teacher for care.

then,

Then I saw Ruan Jihong with red and swollen eyes from crying.

"Sister Youmi, this is my great-grandmother." Tao Pu sniffed, trying to appear strong.

"Then what about you and Teacher Li Xing?"

"He is, he is..." This leads to Tao Pu's blind spot in knowledge. He counts on his fingers that his mother (Zou Fangyin's) mother (Zou's maternal grandmother)'s mother (Ruan's maternal grandmother) is Teacher Li's mother's mother.

“You’re his cousin, and you’re his nephew,” Ruan Jihong pointed out. She felt an instant connection with the child when she first saw him. Little did she know, he really was the grandson of her missing eldest daughter.

It was from her great-grandson that she learned about what had happened over the years.

His granddaughter died young, the elders of the Zou family have disappeared without a trace, and his eldest daughter has never shown her face.

She was both happy and disappointed.

The eldest daughter, the most proud and outstanding, is still not alive.

This is a wish she has kept changing for many years, a wish that has remained unfulfilled for so long: as long as she is alive.

With her strong abilities as a woman, she is sure to achieve great things and stand tall, no less than any man.

Once she becomes famous, she will be able to find out about the child.

This little Tao Pu was the child she had ever seen who most resembled her eldest daughter; he was both intelligent and considerate.

Comrade Xia taught us very well!

Xia Youmi, who was suddenly greeted with a loving gaze, said that it was because Zou Fangyin had excellent genes.

She only provided slight guidance and didn't do much else.

In addition, finding relatives means that she can embark on her scientific research path easily and without burden.

"Sister, we can live together in the provincial capital. Great-Grandma said she'll bring both of us there!" Tao Pu expressed his joy. In front of Xia Youmi, he seemed to have no need to think about important life matters.

As long as you study hard and strive to grow up.

but,

He didn't see Xia Youmi show the same expression of agreement and joy.

"Teacher Li is awake," Xia Youmi reminded her.

Because of their family ties, she needed to change her story, and she had to consult with the two adults first.

"Child!"

"teacher!"
