Landlady who likes to hoard land

Chapter 69 Raising troops to investigate crimes

Wang Chengyu secretly rolled her eyes. Look, everyone says Xu Chenxing's factory was opened for them.

Only they themselves knew that Xu Jianren only earned 4,500 yuan a month.

In her opinion, Xu Jianren should have resigned long ago.

Xu Aimei's tears came without warning, her well-maintained face streaked with tears and snot, she cried as if her heart was breaking, as if Xu Chenxing were already dead.

To say that Xu Chenxing favors his daughter is simply a family tradition inherited from the Xu family.

Xu Jianren's grandparents doted on Xu Jianren's aunt, Xu Aimei. They had three children, two sons, Xu Chenxing and Xu Chenhui, who lived in the countryside.

Only Xu Aimei, Xu Jianren's daughter, was someone whom Xu Jianren's grandfather went to great lengths to get admitted to the hospital.

She was also found a kind, honest, and wealthy husband, and Xu Aimei's life was happy and smooth sailing.

After retiring, Xu Aimei stayed at home and spent her time traveling with her husband. However, she stopped traveling due to knee pain.

She's been staying at home ever since. Xu Aimei only has two daughters and doesn't have to look after her grandchildren, so she gets so bored that she always wants to find something to do.

Later, she found a job as a mediator in the neighborhood. Whenever there was a disagreement or an argument between two families, she would act as a peacemaker and smooth things over.

Xu Aimei cried and complained at the same time. No matter how well she takes care of herself, she is still over sixty years old. Wang Chengyu turned her head away, unable to bear looking at the old woman with her eyesight showing in the rain.

Wang Chengyu suspected that Xu Chenxing was the one who made the false accusation first and then turned around and bit back! He had been humiliated by Xu Jianren at the bottom of the river, losing both face and substance.

Xu Jianren then resigned from the factory, clearly indicating that he wanted to distance himself from him.

Xu Chenxing was both ashamed and furious, and panicked. She used her trump card, threatening to kill herself to force them to admit their mistakes.

“Auntie, I wasn’t involved in this at all. I haven’t seen Grandpa and Grandma Xu Wen since the tenth day of the eighth lunar month. Don’t try to pin this on me.”

Whether they live or die is up to my in-laws. They've lived enough, and we, as their juniors, can't stop them, can we?

Wang Chengyu will not take the blame for this; let whoever wants to take it, just don't try to pressure her with the charge of being unfilial.

Xu Chenxing and his wife are really disgusting. At their age, they still play these suicide pranks.

Scare them with the threat of death. They might as well just die and be done with it.

“Aunt, Uncle, you watched Xu Jianren grow up. You know him better than I do. Do you think he would do something like forcing his parents to die?”

Seeing that the others remained silent, Wang Chengyu asked a question instead.

Xu Aimei continued to sob, wiped her nose, and remained silent.

Xu Chenhui said in a deep voice, "We know Jianren isn't that kind of person, so we came to you to understand the whole story and see if there's any misunderstanding!"

These two, one playing the good cop and the other the bad cop, worked together quite well!

"I'm sorry, I really don't know much about this. Xu Jianren hasn't been home for several days."

I don't know where he is now. I'm so busy every day taking my two kids to and from school, going to work, and doing housework; I'm completely overwhelmed.

"By the way, Auntie, Uncle, didn't Grandpa and Grandma Xu say why Xu Jianren flipped the table?"

Seeing Wang Chengyu's sincere question, the two people sitting on the sofa felt a little uncomfortable.

This couple is so different from before. Xu Jianren, who was always honest and timid, actually dared to flip the table, and Xu Wen's mother, who was always taciturn, has become sharp-tongued and learned to beat around the bush.

"Cough...cough..."

Xu Chenhui cleared his throat, trying to hide his unease.

“We didn’t ask in detail, but no matter what the reason, Jianren couldn’t flip the table, and he made his parents so angry that they couldn’t get out of bed.”

There are no parents who are always wrong; no matter how big a mistake their parents make, their children should be forgiving!

Ha, Wang Chengyu really wanted to spit a big wad of phlegm in his face. What a load of bull that parents are always right.

She has always believed that reasonable morality must be two-way; one-way moral demands are essentially enslavement and exploitation.

The saying "Parents are never wrong" is utter nonsense.

When Xu Chenxing makes all sorts of demands on them, why doesn't he think about what he has done for them in return?

If the father is unkind, the son will be unfilial; if you are unrighteous, I will be unjust.

“Grandpa, the ancients always said that a kind father and a filial son are the only ones who can be filial! If you ask me, the one who has been hurt the most in this matter is Xu Jianren. We still don’t know where he is. Whether you want to question him or ask him to go back and admit his mistakes and apologize, you have to find him first! Aunt, don’t you agree?”

Ugh, so annoying!

"Such a big thing happened, as a daughter-in-law, you should at least take the children back to see them, right? You didn't even show your face?"

Xu Aimei stopped crying and, somewhat annoyed by Wang Chengyu's uncompromising attitude, directly accused her of being unfilial.

"Auntie, my in-laws have always looked down on me. I'm afraid things will only get worse if they see me."

I have no money and no manpower; going there would only upset them. If I angered them to the point of death, that would be even more unfilial. Not going to cause trouble is the greatest act of filial piety I can show!

After speaking slowly, Wang Chengyu changed his posture, leisurely picked up his water glass, took a sip, rolled his eyes around, and continued.

"Uncle, Aunt, my parents-in-law have always liked Xu Wen's two aunts the most, and they always praise their family members for being filial."

By the way, my mother-in-law has said more than once to me since the day I married into your Xu family that she doesn't expect anything from her daughter-in-law, but from her daughter.

This is a rare opportunity for them to learn how to take care of the elderly in advance.

"Auntie, my mother-in-law has said this to you more than once!"

Xu Chenhui's wife, who had remained silent since entering the house, sat on the sofa without saying a word. She was just there to make a show of things; she had no intention of getting involved in the Xu family's messy affairs.

Seeing that Wang Chengyu had brought the question to her face, she merely raised her eyelids to glance at her and remained silent.

No objection means acceptance.

The entire living room was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

Xu Chenhui was in a very awkward situation. He had come to confront the enemy, but he hadn't expected to be outmaneuvered by a junior.

The frustrating thing is that I can't refute what she said.

Seeing that they were all silent, Wang Chengyu pretended to take out his phone.

"Huh, when did Jianren reply to my message? I called him earlier but he didn't answer!"

"Have him come back quickly, we'll talk to him."

Xu Aimei was getting anxious. This niece-in-law was too difficult to deal with; she spoke in a sarcastic and unfriendly manner, and was completely impervious to reason. No wonder her brother and sister-in-law disliked her.

"Oh dear, Jianren says he's in the hospital. What happened to him? Aunt, Uncle, look, Jianren is saying my father-in-law smashed this!"

Wang Chengyu pulled up the picture of Xu Jianren's blood-covered face that Xu Jianren had sent him, enlarged it, and showed it to several people.
