Chapter 804: Chapter 805: 1960s Quadrangle Courtyard 53

Lady Jia Zhang thought as long as Sha Zhu didn’t report the case, everything would be fine. Unexpectedly, the neighbors suddenly jumped out, saying they were going to the police.

"Goodness, you’re not even the involved party; you didn’t see anything. Even Sha Zhu didn’t say he’d report the case. I really don’t understand why they want to blow this up."

"We are concerned citizens."

"Exactly, if you don’t step in, who knows when they will turn on us."

"We must report this to the police."

So, a crowd of people grandly went to report to the police. Zhang Yu didn’t move and continued lying on the sun lounger, she didn’t want to get involved in this mess.

"See, this is what happens when people are too arrogant, they really think Yi Zhonghai will always protect them."

Zhang Li kept nodding, "Exactly, one shouldn’t be too arrogant, or else someone will teach them a lesson."

At this moment, Lady Jia Zhang felt agony, unsure of what to do. Upon hearing Zhang Yu speak these words, the old lady fiercely glared at Zhang Yu, wanting to harshly teach her a lesson, but she really didn’t dare.

"Lady Jia Zhang, don’t stare at me like that. I won’t be polite with you, plus you’ve already made a move twice today. Do it again, and you’re a habitual offender."

"What’s a habitual offender? It’s you bullying one person after another, and just wait until next time they lock you up, saying you’re innocent won’t cut it."

"Even if the other party writes a letter of forgiveness, it won’t work."

"And don’t bother calling Old Jia; even summoning the ancestors of the Jia Family won’t help."

Zhang Yu continued staring at the sky, completely ignoring Lady Jia Zhang, who was of course very dissatisfied.

This feeling of being ignored really annoyed her, but she also knew she couldn’t win against Zhang Yu, so she could only storm off angrily.

Qin Huairu also had no fondness for Zhang Yu, who first got Jia Dongxu into trouble, and now the old lady might also face trouble, ruining their family’s reputation beyond repair.

Once Bang Geng grows up, when people inquire and find out both his grandmother and father have been imprisoned, who would want to marry him?

Their house is not big, with such a small home already housing three generations; there’s no way any girl would want to marry Bang Geng.

The more Qin Huairu thought about it, the angrier she got, especially at Lady Jia Zhang, who always praises Bang Geng but turns a blind eye when trouble comes.

Lady Jia Zhang thought harder and felt she still needed to find Sha Zhu to get a letter of forgiveness, so she wouldn’t have to go to prison.

But when she turned her head, she suddenly didn’t see Qin Huairu, "Qin Huairu, you sly fox, who has caught your eye now?"

"I’m telling you, don’t think that just because my son is in, you can mess around. If it weren’t for you getting close with Sha Zhu, would I hit him?"

"What now, has Sha Zhu become your father-in-law, and you plan to switch targets?"

It must be said, Lady Jia Zhang is quite clever; she quickly thought of a very good idea.

That is, Sha Zhu and Qin Huairu must be having an affair; otherwise, she would not have struck her, and definitely not so viciously.

Many people followed to report to the police, but even more people stayed here, hearing Lady Jia Zhang’s words, they incredulously looked towards Qin Huairu.

"Right! I just saw Sha Zhu and Qin Huairu getting really close, practically sticking together."

"It’s not unusual; I even saw Sha Zhu holding Qin Huairu’s hand and refusing to let go the other day."

The surrounding neighbors, hearing the discussions of the people in the courtyard, were agape and in disbelief. If the two were both single, this gossip wouldn’t be so shocking.

But the problem is, one is a married woman and the other is a single young man; they’re undoubtedly an ill-matched pair.

"If it’s really like that, I would hit someone too."

"Although Lady Jia Zhang often speaks nonsense and never says a true word, who would want to admit that their daughter-in-law is fooling around with someone outside? After all, it would shame the family itself."

Everyone didn’t realize that Lady Jia Zhang is not a normal person; they discussed using their own thoughts and theories.

The way they looked at Qin Huairu was full of contempt, "No wonder Lady Jia Zhang constantly calls her a seductress and makes her do all the work."

"Exactly, otherwise she’d just be loafing around all day, who knows who else she’d seduce."

Qin Huairu is a voluptuous woman, and many men stare at her; their wives have long held a grudge against her.

But frustratingly enough, she performs exceptionally well at domestic chores, she’s a whiz at housework, and countless mothers-in-law say they wish they had a daughter-in-law like Qin Huairu.

"If my mother-in-law compares me to Qin Huairu again, I’ll ask her if she also wants to learn to seduce men," said one woman angrily, clearly often compared by her mother-in-law.

Qin Huairu never expected that to lessen her own guilt, Lady Jia Zhang wouldn’t care about her reputation and just threw her under the bus.

"Mom, how could you say that? Don’t you know what kind of person I am?"

"Ever since I married into the Jia Family, have I made you do any chores?" Qin Huairu retorted loudly.

She absolutely cannot carry this blame; otherwise, everyone could spurn her, point fingers at her, and she would become the typical synonym for a ’vixen’.

"You, a jobless country girl who married my son, should be secretly thrilled."

"What, you become a city-dweller and you plan not to work, leaving all the work to me?"

"I should have stopped Dongxu from marrying you in the first place."

"Always idling at home, doing nothing worthwhile. My son has only been away for a few days, and you can’t stand it? Are you that desperate each day?"

"You can’t live without a man."

Zhang Yu quickly ushered Zhang Li into the house; he had no reaction to these words, but Zhang Li was different, a young lady, of course she shouldn’t be exposed too much to these topics.

Qin Huairu wiped her sweat, "Mom, how can you not consider the feelings of Bang Geng and others?"

Knowing she holds no position in Lady Jia Zhang’s eyes, but it’s different for Bang Geng, aren’t you worried about the old lady not caring?

"I’ve been considering them too much, which is why I’ve been holding my temper back all this time, but today I really can’t stand it anymore."

"Don’t think I don’t know, ever since Dongxu was imprisoned, you’ve been going out every night for a long time, don’t tell me you’re going to the toilet."

"If you need to go out at night, Third Master has to open the door," Lady Jia Zhang had long been suspicious of Qin Huairu.

Wow, Zhang Yu did not expect that even now he would hear such explosive news.

With her husband not at home, Qin Huairu still went out frequently into the night, this news is indeed explosive.

Yan Fugui is not at home, but his wife is, and Third Master stated, "Not many people get up during the night, anyway my old Yan hasn’t opened the door for Qin Huairu at night these past few days."

"If you don’t believe me, you can ask my old Yan." As soon as these words came out, everyone wanted to open their mouths wider, but found they couldn’t open any wider, and it’s quite tiring to keep mouths open for a long time, so they all closed their mouths.

"There must be something going on, a lover inside the compound."

Qin Huairu’s midnight rendezvous, without leaving the compound, means the person involved is right here within the compound.

Qin Huairu knew that Lady Jia Zhang slept soundly, otherwise she would not venture out at night.

She never expected that what she thought was secret, Lady Jia Zhang actually knew all along.
