Chapter 219: Chapter 219: Hating the Wrong Person
Luo Qiao had dinner, tidied up a bit, and instructed Stone, "Stone, you can’t fall behind on your studies these days. If you don’t understand something, ask Brother Lu at night. School will start in a few more days."
Stone looked a bit listless, "Sister, when are you coming back?"
Luo Qiao patted Stone on the head, "I’ll definitely come back before you start school."
Stone said, "But that’s still more than twenty days away. I’m really afraid my stomach will miss you before I do."
After saying that, he actually started laughing heartily.
Luo Qiao gave a set of keys to Lu Yichen, asking him to water the vegetable garden in the backyard every few days, then she locked the door, shouldered her basket, and headed towards the brigade headquarters.
When she arrived, she saw Zhang Dezheng and his brother Zhang Degang just coming out.
Zhang Degang looked at Luo Qiao with mixed feelings. Honestly, this matter had nothing to do with Luo Qiao, but now that his brother had been removed from his position, his niece probably couldn’t be released for the time being.
He didn’t quite understand the officials’ regulations, but what he got from his brother was that if Luo Qiao didn’t let up, then Qiaoyan would have to stay in the juvenile detention center for a few years. Qiaoyan being a girl, if she really had to stay inside for a few years, with her usual pride and aloofness, she would probably be ruined by the time she got out.
Yet, for him to open his mouth and beg Luo Qiao to relent was something he couldn’t do. After all, what Qiaoyan had done was truly life-threatening, and no one would have that much magnanimity.
Zhang Dezheng’s thoughts were now different, eyeing Luo Qiao with full resentment, causing the bit of sympathy that had arisen in Luo Qiao’s heart to fade away completely.
Under these circumstances, Luo Qiao didn’t intend to greet them. She didn’t want to ask for trouble.
Therefore, she went straight into the brigade headquarters, but as she passed by Zhang Dezheng, she heard him say, "Luo Qiao, I’ve been removed from my position, are you satisfied now?"
Luo Qiao stopped, sneered, and said, "The commune leaders wouldn’t remove you from your position without a valid reason, would they? Besides, what’s the point of you saying this to me, Uncle? You should go and ask your daughter if she’s satisfied."
Luo Qiao was not about to give him any face. She hadn’t done anything, so why should she be harassed and endangered by this father and daughter duo, as if she were easy to bully?
After that, she went directly into the brigade headquarters, collected eighty yuan from Accountant Sun Guichang, and left the village, where she saw Lu Yichen waiting not far from the village entrance.
Lu Yichen said, "I called Yuan Weicheng earlier."
Luo Qiao hopped onto the back of the bicycle, "No wonder that party secretary was removed so quickly, and he still dared to glare at me."
Lu Yichen’s brow furrowed almost imperceptibly upon hearing this and he said, "Don’t worry about things here, it’s good for you to hide in the city for a few days and enjoy some peace."
Soon they arrived at the commune entrance, and only after Lu Yichen watched her get on a vehicle did he turn and ride his bike towards the agricultural machinery station.
Zhang Dezheng returned home, saw his wife had come back, and noticing her red eyes from crying, he knew she must have heard about what happened.
He walked over, wanting to comfort her, but considering so many people were in the room, he withdrew his hand.
He said softly, "This time our daughter is really in trouble. I have no ability to get her out, and that Luo Qiao still refuses to let up."
Wang Chunnian said in a tearful voice, "I’ve prepared some things. Let’s go to her once more later. It’s true what Qiaoyan did went too far, but she’s still young. We can’t just watch her being sent to a juvenile detention center. That would ruin her life."
Zhang Dezheng couldn’t bear his wife’s sorrow and took a deep breath, "Okay, I’ll accompany you to find her again."
If his wife could persuade Luo Qiao to change her mind, then his pride didn’t matter.
Unfortunately, as idealistic as they were, reality was harsh. By the time they took some stuff and rushed to Luo Qiao’s house early, they saw the Iron General guarding the door.
Now Wang Chunnian became anxious and asked, "Didn’t you say the village had given Luo Qiao a break?"
Zhang Dezheng said, "We just saw her at the entrance of the brigade headquarters. Why don’t we go there and ask?"
The group left with their belongings, and as people assigned tasks along the riverbank, a woman who had a grudge with Zhang Dezheng’s family said, "Oh, this is to see Luo Qiao, but she’s gone to the city to recuperate. She’s covered in bruises, and it’s heartbreaking for all of us to see."
