86: Chapter 79: The Truth Cos Out, The Dust Settles_2 86: Chapter 79: The Truth Cos Out, The Dust Settles_2 If the substitution did not co to light and only led to the repression of Zhang Guojun, then Zhao Qiyan could beco a private teacher at the commune’s primary school.
If the substitution were exposed, and the mother and daughter covered it up, the Xue family would welco Zhao Qiyan as their daughter-in-law!
This was too tempting!
Whether it was becoming a teacher or the daughter-in-law of the commune director, both roles were significant upgrades the mother and daughter had eagerly agreed on, and a deal was struck imdiately.
Why did Xue Ligang choose this mother and daughter?
This was rooted in the last matchmaking attempt.
Although the Xue family had outright refused Zhao Qiyan, her and her mother’s greed made a deep impression on Xue Ligang.
Such people, for the sake of benefit, would sell out anyone, including Xue Ligang himself.
But why did he still choose the mother and daughter?
In his view, when the matter were exposed, his plan would have reached its end anyway, and selling out would not make any difference.
This last-ditch effort was because he already knew the authorities were investigating him and that the political winds were changing.
Given what he had done, this was the only way out, so he went all in!
His goal was to eliminate Zhang Guojun and make him his scapegoat.
Otherwise, how could he have found Zhang Guojun so quickly?
He did not want to solve Zhang Guojun with a dose of poison, as the aftermath would have been too troubleso to handle, and he feared he could not manage it, so he used torture instead.
It was just that he did not anticipate Zhang Guojun’s tough life; he couldn’t achieve his wish.
After the interrogation concluded and everything was laid bare, Zhou Hanliang asked the question that puzzled him most, “Why did you have to choose Lin Chuxia?
Was it because she refused to be your daughter-in-law?”
In just a few days, Xue Ligang had aged by seven or eight years, and his temples had gone gray.
Covering his face with his hands, he sighed deeply before lifting his head, “This is the worst mistake I’ve ever made.
If I had known…, but where in the world does preknowledge exist?
If anything, I should say I knew this day would co.”
Acting like an emperor, he had forgotten to whom the land under his feet belonged!
With Xue Ligang’s downfall, Xue Guohong’s university spot was naturally canceled, and Wang ihua, that shrew, wailed all over Chuxia’s house refusing to leave until Luo Gangshun reluctantly dragged her away.
Xue Ligang cared quite a bit about his wife and children, having involved himself in many dishonorable deeds without dragging his family into it.
Thus, aside from losing the benefits related to Xue Ligang and having their property confiscated, Xue Guohong and Wang ihua faced no other penalties.
If it weren’t for the issues related to recruitnt, Zhou Hanliang and Zeng ili wouldn’t have interfered with local cases.
The case was handed over to the local police at this stage.
Before departing, Zhou Hanliang and Zeng ili specifically went to Dalin Village to pay their respects to Elder Chen Chen Fenggang.
At dinner, they again ate at Luo Gangshun’s house.
Seeing her again, Zhou Hanliang looked at Chuxia with teasing eyes, “Xiao Chuxia, that food coupon was quite useful, huh?
Look at that little face, clearly getting so at on it.
How many food coupons is today’s al going to cost?”
“You decide.
After all, you’re going to be my superior, and I wouldn’t dare to speak out of turn, would I?
What if you decide to make my life difficult?” Zhou Hanliang having a good disposition, made talking with him quite comfortable for Chuxia, so she too did not behave too formally.
Zhou Hanliang smiled at Zhao Qiliang, “Squad Leader Zhao, last ti I and Commander Zhou got fleeced by this girl with a bag of dumplings for seventy kilos of food coupons.
Can you believe how ruthless she is?”
“Cough!
Cough!
Cough!” While drinking water, Zhao Qiliang, the prospective son-in-law of the Luo Family, almost choked.
His soft and frail little cousin, how could she be so ruthless?
But, considering her past behavior, it was indeed possible.
Following the principle that friends should share fortunes and misfortunes alike, Luo Xiaoqiong quickly interjected, “Chuxia didn’t keep those food coupons for herself; she shared half of them with .”
“Cough!
Cough!
Cough!” Zhao Qiliang choked again…
Zhou Hanliang just glared at him, “Show so dignity.
Both of you have done it, and you’re acting this astonished?”
Zeng ili smiled and said, “Lin Chuxia, did you know that even if this incident hadn’t occurred, you would…”
“You would still be rembered by us.”
Zhou Hanliang interrupted, and Zeng ili imdiately understood, nodding with a smile, “Yes, you would still be rembered by us.”
“Why?” Luo Xiaoqiong looked puzzled, sizing up Chuxia, “Is it because Chuxia is too pretty?”
Zhou Hanliang and Zeng ili shared a blank look, as they weren’t judging a beauty contest…
