Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 1210: Chapter 1211: The Victim

Chen Kaijin was truly getting angry with her tone and attitude.

Just a sixteen-year-old girl, always having such an attitude towards her elders, what kind of behavior was that?

But then she remembered that their main purpose of coming here was her, so she could only bear with it.

”Let’s go together, then. It’ll be a tight fit, but we should be able to squeeze in,” Chen Kaijin said to Xu Linjiang, ”We will treat you to dinner tonight at the Peace Restaurant. It will be good for us all to get to know each other, we’re all relatives after all.”

Xu Linjiang said, ”No need, we are used to eating at home.”

Eating at home, and not considering inviting them to join?

Chen Kaijin’s heart sank.

These country folks, they have no sense of manners or etiquette at all!

In contrast, Chiang Xiao couldn’t help but smirk internally.

Sure enough, her uncle did understand what she meant.

”We won’t need your car either. We’ll walk. The day is still long, and walking will count as exercise,” Chiang Xiao added.

And so, Chen Kaijin and her sister had no choice but to walk with them from Siyang Village to Peace Town.

There was no way they could let their parents walk while they sat comfortably in the car, right?

The distance wasn’t short, and they had never walked so far before; the shoes they wore were not made for traveling long distances. By the time they reached town, their feet were blistered.

Both of them looked to be in considerable pain.

Originally, Ge Liutao had wanted to bring them along to familiarize them with the place, so they knew where her home was. But seeing how they were struggling to walk any further, she let the driver accompany them instead.

Chiang Xiao walked a bit, then looked back to see them eagerly climbing into the car to sit, and she couldn’t help but purse her lips and laugh.

But inside, she felt walls of resolute hardness build up within her.

No matter if Chen Kaijin was allied with Deng Qingjiang now or what their purpose was, Chiang Xiao was determined to play her part to the end.

In this life, she was going to make sure Deng Qingjiang suffered a thousand times over and died a miserable death!

When they arrived home, Ge Dejun greeted them with the latest developments in the matter of Chiang Baohe.

”The whole town is buzzing with the news. Everyone is talking about Yu Chunyu! Even Elder Sister Yu had a falling out with her husband, claiming she never agreed to report the case and that he took it upon himself! She’s also claiming that this has nothing to do with her sister, saying her sister didn’t even know about it and was not assaulted!”

”Does everyone believe her?” Ge Liutao couldn’t help but ask.

Liu Pei heaved a sigh and said, ”How could they believe her? Everyone is convinced that the assaulted woman is Yu Chunyu!”

They were discussing these matters while Chiang Xiao had gone into her room.

What she needed to focus on was the case of Deng Qingjiang and Chen Kaijin. She didn’t care at all about what was happening with Chiang Baohe.

But nobody could have expected that Yu Chunyu would ultimately commit suicide.

The next morning, Elder Sister Yu found Yu Chunyu cold and stiff, having drunk a bottle of pesticide.

This incident set Peace Town abuzz once again.

With the death of the victim, the cases against Chiang Baohe and Zou Xiaoling drew even greater attention. Not to mention that Chiang Songtao had no connections or ability to intervene; even if he did, under these circumstances, it was already too late.

That morning, Chiang Baohe and Zou Xiaoling were escorted to the detention center in the county. When the vehicle left, Chiang Songhai and Ho Laidi supported each other, with Ho Laidi nearly fainting from grief.

Chiang Xiao did not go out to see them off. Ge Xiaotong and Liu Pei followed Chiang Songhai and Ge Liutao instead.

When they returned, their expressions were all heavy.
