Quick Transmigration: Refusing to Be a Victim's Child
Chapter 59 The Ex-Husband in the Historical Fiction 24
At the entrance of the police station.
Uncle Shao and his companions had just been criticized, and now the three of them were covering their faces and preparing to run away.
As a result, before they had walked more than a few meters, two more police officers ran out of the station, grabbed He Xinlian by the back of her hand with a stern face, and tried to take her to the detention center without saying a word.
Uncle Shao and his wife were stunned for a moment, then quickly stopped the person and said anxiously:
"Officers, are you sure you've got the right person? We've already realized our mistake and even written a guarantee. Why are you still arresting my daughter-in-law?"
Their eldest son has already been arrested. If his wife were to go in too, their family's reputation would be ruined. They still have two unmarried children.
Uncle Shao and his wife exchanged a glance, both feeling a little uneasy. They couldn't help but wonder if their family had offended Tai Sui this year, as nothing good had happened, but bad things kept happening one after another.
The two police officers, who looked to be in their early twenties, paused their initial impatience upon seeing the pitiful elderly couple before them, and simply said:
“We just received a notification from the detention center that He Xinlian’s husband has just confessed to his crimes, saying that he was involved in speculation and profiteering, and that his wife was also involved. If you have any questions, you can ask him later.”
After saying that, they ignored Uncle Shao and his wife, who were still standing there dumbfounded, and dragged He Xinlian away, who kept crying out for justice...
*
The case was adjudicated quickly. Because Shao Jianjun was found guilty of speculation/profiteering, and because he cooperated well and the circumstances were not serious, he was sentenced to three years in prison.
As for He Xinlian, the accomplice, although she never admitted it, the two were husband and wife and slept in the same bed, so it was impossible for her to be completely unaware. Therefore, even though she was not caught on the spot, she was sentenced to one year in prison.
Now, He Xinlian has a criminal record for the rest of her life, and she will never have the chance to return to the city or seize the opportunity of the college entrance examination to leave.
Before the couple went to prison, they were forced to wear tall hats and have a wooden plaque around their necks with their crimes, names, and village information written on it.
The two were pushed and pushed through the streets and alleys, surrounded by onlookers. They were not only pelted with dirty things, but also subjected to beatings, verbal abuse, and humiliation without anyone stopping them.
Even after they returned to the prison after circling around Niutou Village, not a single person from the Shao family's old house dared to come out and take a look.
Even so, the marriage of Hongxia and her brother is in trouble. Even the families who had previously hinted at it are now willing to cancel the engagement and forgo the dowry in order to sever ties with the Shao family.
Therefore, Hongxia and her brother made a huge fuss at home all day long, which angered Grandpa Shao and Grandma Shao so much that they both suffered strokes and were bedridden.
After all, the elderly couple were already quite old, and because of the matter involving Shao Jianjun and his wife, the reputation of Niutou Village had been ruined, and the villagers all hated the Shao family to death.
Every few days, people would throw feces and stones at the gate, the courtyard, and even the roof of the Shao family's old house. Sometimes the noise was so loud that it would wake the old couple from their sleep.
Living in constant fear, and then getting upset by Hongxia and her brother, wouldn't you fall ill?
Uncle Shao and his wife's hair turned white with worry. Even though the work assigned to them by the team was tiring, heavy, and had the fewest work points, the couple still had to grit their teeth and persevere in working.
Otherwise, if none of them, young or old, work, and the couple doesn't try their best, the whole family will really starve to death...
As for the second and third families, due to their kinship, the two families were also subjected to the villagers' wrath for a long time. It wasn't until Shao Linshen secretly took gifts to the homes of several village officials that the village's attitude changed within a few days.
Some villagers spoke up for the second and third branches of the Shao family, saying that the family had already separated and that they were not the ones who made the mistake, so why should they be implicated?
Some even say that such egregious behavior would be considered a criminal offense by the police, and the perpetrators would be arrested and educated.
The rumors, both true and false, spread throughout the village, and for a time no one dared to provoke the second and third branches of the Shao family.
The matter has come to an end.
Shao Linshen was finally able to focus on researching new grain varieties.
Although this world is devoid of spiritual energy, Shao Linshen can still earn merit by doing good deeds to cultivate. As a result, he can easily obtain grain seeds that can increase production by constantly stimulating and selecting seeds.
In the first year, Shao Linshen only conducted experimental planting on his own small plot of land. The amount of grain he obtained was not much, but by carefully observing the grain yield of fields of the same size, it was easy to clearly compare which one was superior.
Although Village Chief Li sometimes likes to take sides and find benefits for his own people, overall he is a very qualified village cadre.
Therefore, without Shaolin Shen taking the initiative, this person personally came to ask to exchange for the improved grain seeds, wanting to conduct a small-scale trial planting in the village the following year.
It just so happens that Shaolin Shen also wants to promote the new grain varieties to the surrounding areas so that more villagers can use them, in order to solve the problem of insufficient national grain production.
He now carries little influence and dares not speak out directly, so Village Chief Li's move is exactly what Shaolin wanted.
So the two hit it off immediately, and the following year they started a "test field" in the village. Of course, this was what they called it internally; on the surface, Village Chief Li just secretly switched the seeds in a few acres of land.
It wasn't until the year the grain was ready for harvest and the villagers weighed the yield of those few acres of land that he revealed the issue of the different grain varieties to everyone.
However, given that these past few years have been the darkest hour before dawn, Shao Linshen didn't let Village Chief Li reveal that he was the researcher, only vaguely saying that Shao Linshen had also obtained it unintentionally from elsewhere...
Since Niutou Village took the lead in planting new grain varieties, surrounding villages have followed suit.
As a result, Village Chief Li, the initiator, also received praise from above, and was promoted to work in the county government in just a few years.
Fortunately, this person still has a conscience.
Although Shao Linshen did not allow him to reveal that he was the researcher, he also mentioned Shao Linshen's contributions as mentioned above.
Therefore, the organization also changed the Shao family's household registration to non-local, directly gifted them a small house in the city, and thoughtfully arranged for Shao's parents to work in the factory, giving the whole family a secure job...
***
The story spread like wildfire throughout the village.
Unfortunately, even though the family in the old Shao family mansion was extremely envious and jealous, Shao's father still only gave the old man and his wife some extra pension money and food every year according to the established rules. Apart from that, they couldn't get any benefits at all.
On the contrary, because two criminals came from his family, he was constantly looked down upon and ostracized.
Shao Hongxia and her brother were married off in less than a year. One of them packed her bags and married a widower from a neighboring village, while the other became a live-in son-in-law without looking back.
These two incidents alone completely overwhelmed Uncle Shao and his wife, leaving them utterly devoid of the energy they once had to cause trouble in the village.
"Shao Jianjun, you green-haired turtle, get out here right now!"
A stout, middle-aged woman with a fierce face grabbed He Xinlian by the neck with one hand, dragged the bruised and swollen woman to the gate of the Shao family, and threw her to the ground without waiting for a response.
He shouted threats:
"You, surnamed Shao, if you like being cuckolded and a pimp, that's your business. Don't come after my family."
"If I catch your wife flirting with my husband again, don't blame me for bringing people to tear your house down."
As the middle-aged woman spoke, she threw excrement into the Shao family's courtyard. Unfortunately, despite the commotion, the entire eldest son's family remained hidden inside, not daring to utter a sound, until the troublemakers finished venting and left.
Shao Jianjun, who looked as if he had aged twenty years, came out of the house with a gloomy face. Without saying a word, he directly raised his hand and stomped on He Xinlian's leg, breaking it.
The wails echoed throughout the village, but not a single villager went to watch the spectacle.
After all, less than a month after He Xinlian returned to the village after serving her sentence, this woman had already gotten involved with a bad element in the cowshed.
One was sent to the countryside because he had relatives overseas, and he was attracted by the beauty and financial support of women; the other hoped that the other would take him away in the future; the two hit it off and immediately slept together.
Originally, the two had kept their actions discreet, and no one knew about them. However, while they were doing that filthy thing, the man was unlucky enough to be bitten on the white buttocks by a large rat that crawled out of the haystack. The pain made him scream, which immediately alerted the villagers.
This matter then completely escalated.
The two were forced to wear dunce caps and have tattered shoes hung around their necks, and were publicly criticized in front of all the villagers. The man was sent to a more arduous farm for labor reform, while the woman was imprisoned again and, for her repeated incorrigible behavior, was sentenced to another two years.
When Shao Jianjun was released from prison after serving his three-year sentence, the young couple met again and found that they had both been released and returned home together.
From then on, Shao Jianjun was completely ruined. He spent his days in a daze, either working in the fields or sleeping in bed.
He Xinlian seemed to have completely let go, relying on her good looks to flirt with different men all day long in exchange for some benefits to support her life.
The eldest son's family knew she was a bad person, but Uncle Shao only had one son left. If his son divorced He Xinlian, he would really be without a wife.
For the sake of their eldest son and to improve their lives, the eldest son's family members pretended to be deaf and dumb about the matter, acting as if they knew nothing about it.
This time, when things were exposed, Shao Jianjun was called a cuckold by others, which finally enraged him, and he gave He Xinlian a severe beating.
Although the anger was released, the life of the first wife still had to continue.
He Xinlian broke her leg and no one cared. She had to crawl to the kitchen by herself, haphazardly set the bone by feel, and then use a wooden stick to fix it. She was in so much pain that she collapsed on the ground like a dead fish.
Tears streamed down her face as she sobbed softly, repeatedly muttering things like, "I regret it, I beg God to give me another chance, next time I promise to settle down and live a good life with Shaolin Shen..."
Unfortunately, she never got a second chance until she died in bed.
Meanwhile, Shaolin Shen settled down in the city, married and had children. Later, through continuous learning, he cultivated countless high-yield grain seeds for the country, enabling most people to have enough to eat, and thus gained a great deal of merit.
"Brother Shen, I've retrieved all my fragments. When are we leaving?"
The voice of Pangu Banner rang in his mind. Shao Linshen, whose hair was already completely white, slowly opened his eyes. He glanced at the children crying uncontrollably in the hospital bed, tugged at the corners of his mouth, and closed his eyes completely.
