Chapter 412: People from Qin Family Village
Two days later, while Zhang Lei was helping He Yushui sort through Sha Zhu's belongings in the courtyard at No. 95, he suddenly heard a commotion at the Jia family's door.
Several people were seen cursing at Jia Zhangshi in front of the Jia family's gate, and Jia Zhangshi was also cursing back without any politeness.
Looking at Old Man Qin, Madam Jia said, "Qin, your daughter brought this upon herself, divorcing my son and becoming a murderer. How dare you come to the Jia family demanding an explanation? We haven't even demanded an explanation from you yet! How did you raise your daughter?"
Qin Huairu's sister-in-law retorted angrily, "You old hag! Our Huairu was perfectly fine when she married into your Jia family. Now that she's dead, you think you can just wash your hands of it with a few words? Dream on! I've heard that Qin Huairu suffered terribly while she was in your family. If your family hadn't abused her every day, how could she have divorced your son? Your family has to give us, the Qin family, an explanation, or we'll tear your house down! Don't think we're all alone; believe me, we'll call everyone in Qin Family Village and beat you to death, you bastard!"
Hearing Qin Huairu's words, Jia Zhangshi immediately retorted angrily, "You country bumpkin, do you think this is? This is Beijing! I'd like to see you try anything. If you dare to lay a finger on me, I'll lie here and try to extort you to death!"
Upon hearing that she was being blackmailed, Qin Huairu's sister-in-law immediately retorted angrily, "You dare? Everyone's watching."
Qin Dazhuang, standing to the side, was furious and about to rush up and hit Jia Zhangshi, but his mother pulled him back, saying, "Dazhuang, don't be impulsive, don't be impulsive."
Banggeng rushed out and stood beside Jia Zhangshi to protect her, shouting, "You are not allowed to bully my grandmother!"
Seeing Banggeng rushing towards her, Qin's mother said uncertainly, "Banggeng? Banggeng, I'm your maternal grandmother."
Banggeng looked at Qin's mother and said directly, "I don't know you. Get out of our house."
Their commotion attracted a crowd of onlookers in the courtyard.
Jia Zhangshi, her eyes darting around, spotted He Yushui standing with Zhang Lei in the distance and pointed directly at her, saying, "If you're looking for someone, look for the He family. They're over there. Qin Huairu eventually married He Daqing. No matter what, they got their marriage certificate and are married. Don't block our doorway."
The Qin family members then looked at He Yushui, who was standing to the side, and everyone made way for her.
Zhang Lei then shielded He Yushui, who was somewhat frightened, behind him and said, "Yushui, don't be afraid, I'm here."
The Qin family members slowly walked towards Zhang Lei and Yu Shui, while Zhang Lei stood in front of them, watching them without changing his expression.
Old Man Qin looked at Zhang Lei and He Yushui and asked, "Are you members of the He family?"
He Yushui nodded and said, "Yes, that's me."
Just then, Old Man Qin was about to walk towards He Yushui when Zhang Lei blocked his way and said, "He Yushui's business is my business. If you have something to say, come and talk to me."
Looking at Zhang Lei in front of him, Old Man Qin opened his mouth and said, "We're not here to cause trouble, we just want an explanation."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Lei nodded and said, "I know, because the person who notified you was the one I sent."
Upon hearing Zhang Lei's words, the Qin family was immediately taken aback.
Zhang Lei looked at the group and said, "There are too many people here, let's go inside and talk."
Old Qin nodded and led the others into the house with Zhang Lei and He Yushui.
Looking at everything in Sha Zhu's house, He Yushui was overcome with emotion and started crying again.
Zhang Lei calmly recounted everything that had happened before.
Upon hearing Zhang Lei's words, Qin Dazhuang slammed his hand on the table and exclaimed, "Impossible! My sister isn't that kind of person!"
Looking at Qin Dazhuang who had stood up, Zhang Lei remained calm and said, "If you don't believe what I'm saying, you can ask around. Of course, you can also go directly to the police station. After all, you can trust the government."
Hearing Zhang Lei say this, Old Man Qin waved his hand, gesturing for Qin Dazhuang to sit down, and said, "I believe what you say. Although I don't know how Huairu became like this, she is still my daughter."
Zhang Lei nodded and said, "I understand."
Zhang Lei looked at Old Man Qin and said, "The reason we notified you is to see your suggestions. If you are willing to take Qin Huairu's body away, we will let you bury her; if you are not willing, then we will simply find a cemetery and bury Qin Huairu there. This is the most we can do."
As he spoke, Zhang Lei stood up, picked up the kettle of boiling water, and began to pour water for each member of the Qin family.
Old Man Qin looked at Zhang Lei and said calmly, "You, comrade, are clearly someone who will accomplish great things. We country folk don't understand so much, but since you've brought it up, let me share my thoughts. Since Huai Ru has done such a thing, we definitely can't get into Qin Family Village. We can only do as you say."
As he spoke, Old Man Qin placed the dozen or so yuan he had in his pocket on the table in small pieces.
Zhang Lei looked at the money on the table and said directly, "You don't need to worry about the money."
Old Qin shook his head and said, "She is, after all, my daughter. I have to see her off on her final journey no matter what."
Zhang Lei nodded and then said, "Oh, right, there's one more thing I want to tell you."
As he spoke, Zhang Lei took a piece of paper out of his pocket.
When the Qin family saw the contents of the paper, they were all astonished.
Zhang Lei said, "The house under He Yuzhu's name was given to Qin Huairu before, because Qin Huairu married He Daqing, and it was a token of the He family's sincerity. But now, the He family wants to take the house back, so of course they won't treat you unfairly."
Qin Huairu's sister-in-law, seeing the note that only 200 yuan was offered, immediately objected, saying, "You're quite the schemer, aren't you? You're trying to take all three rooms for just 200 yuan. Even though we're from the countryside, we know that in this city, land is incredibly valuable; one room here is worth more than that!"
Zhang Lei spoke up, looking at Qin Huairu's sister-in-law, "I'm representing Yushui in this discussion, and only because you are Qin Huairu's family. I'm sitting here calmly talking to you. If you think this house is so easy to get, then we can find another way."
Upon hearing Zhang Lei's words, Qin Huairu's sister-in-law said, "What do you want to do? Let me tell you, some things are illegal."
Zhang Lei smiled and said, "Don't worry, we won't do anything illegal. I'm just giving you a heads-up, so you don't end up losing both the house and the money."
