Chapter 217: Cancellation of the Marriage with the Chen Family
He Wenbin, who was in a nightmare, was awakened by a cough, "Mom, are you awake?"
The person on the bed reached out his hand to him, and he quickly stepped forward and said, "I'm sorry, I'm an unfilial son and I've caused you so much worry."
Lu Jinglan moved her lips and wanted to say something, but her throat was dry and she couldn't make any sound.
He Wenbin quickly poured her a glass of water to moisten her throat.
She stroked her son's cheek and said, "You are my son. I am happy to worry about you. Besides, it's not all about you. It's my personal problem. You don't have to blame yourself."
He Wenbin held her hand tightly. "Mom, you have always been optimistic and cheerful. I have never heard that you are anxious or insomniac. Why do you need to take sleeping pills? Is there something wrong at home? Our son has grown up. You don't have to hide everything from me and handle it all by yourself."
After waking up from a sleep, Lu Jinglan found that her son had changed a lot and learned to be filial. She was very relieved, but she could not let him know about the divorce.
"…It's okay. I've had insomnia for a long time. It's normal for thin people to have trouble sleeping. Don't think too much about it."
The mother and son had just exchanged a few words when Lu Zhengxiao and his wife arrived.
Lu Zhengxiao, "Sister, I called him. He will come by boat in the evening and will also come to inspect the safety issues of the island tourism community."
Both parties knew who he was referring to.
"Tell him what to do and tell him not to come. I'm fine. I just had insomnia and accidentally took too many sleeping pills." Lu Jinglan was very excited and struggled to get up from the bed.
If he comes, the divorce can't be kept secret.
Lu Zhengxiao helped her lie back down, "Sister, don't get excited. I didn't ask him to come. He was worried about you and wanted to come on his own."
Lu Zhengxiao and He Wenbin went to the cafeteria to eat and then went to training.
Shen Ye Ning took out the porridge from the lunch box and gave it to Lu Jinglan, and stayed to take care of her.
Lu Jinglan said to her, "I didn't agree with their marriage at first, but later she helped me get my bag back, and I found that she was a good girl, but she was unlucky to be born in that kind of family. Who knew she was so thoughtful and not simple at all."
She has worked in the workplace for most of her life and has met all kinds of people. She also has no objection to ordinary people clinging to others to climb up in order to get more resources.
But she couldn't accept lies, deception, and unscrupulous framing.
"Sister, don't worry too much. There will always be a way to solve this problem."
"Yeah! I'm not worried."
Lu Jinglan thought it through and realized that nothing was a big deal except life and death.
Whatever compensation she wanted, they could give it to her.
Shen Ye Ning vaguely still remembered the appearance of the thief who snatched the bag. If it could be confirmed that it was Chen Hongling who found the person, things would be much easier.
She had just arrived and was unfamiliar with the place, so it was not easy for her to find someone. She thought that she had already got her bag back, so she didn't take it seriously.
Now that we are familiar with each other, it shouldn’t be a problem to find someone.
Shen Ye Ning roughly drew the man's appearance, took the photo to the factory and asked around, and someone recognized him.
Aunt Chen, who was peeling coconuts, recognized her and said, "I am the Ergou from our village. He steals things all day long. People in the village hate him. We feel sorry for him because he has no parents, so we didn't bother with him the first few times he stole things. But later he became more and more excessive. He was caught on the spot and sent to prison several times. He was released after being imprisoned for a few days for petty thefts, but he couldn't change his bad habits after he was released."
"What's his name? Where is he now?"
"Chen Ergou lives in a thatched house at the end of Chenjia Village."
Shen Ye Ning took people to Chen Ergou's house.
Chen Ergou's house is like a doghouse, with garbage all over the door and it is a mess.
He had a hangover the night before, and there were glass bottles and some snack bags scattered all over the bed and on the floor.
I vaguely heard some noise outside the door, opened my eyes dazedly, saw a beautiful woman breaking in, and quickly got up from the bed.
"Beauty, so beautiful, I am not dreaming, a beautiful wife really fell from the sky for me, I seem to smell your fragrance." Chen Ergou was still sleepy, sniffed and pouted, "Beauty, you smell so good, come here and let me kiss you, hehe!"
Shen Ye Ning picked up the teapot, unscrewed the lid and poured the tea into his face.
"Chen Ergou, are you awake?"
Chen Ergou shook his head and wiped the water off his face. "Who are you? Why did you splash me?"
He saw two burly men standing behind Shen Ye Ning and instantly became intimidated. He pretended to be afraid, took a few steps back, and moved towards the window.
He quickly turned around and ran to the window behind him. The iron net of the window had been removed long ago and fell off with a push of his hands. This was the escape window he had prepared for himself.
Just as he climbed onto the window with his hands and feet, a figure suddenly appeared outside and kicked him inside.
Chen Ergou fell on his back, holding his waist and rolling on the ground wailing, "Oh my god, it hurts so much, who is it? How dare you kick me?"
Jiang Wang jumped in from the window and stepped on him, saying in a defiant tone, "It's you, my father!"
Chen Ergou recognized him, "Brother Jiang? Oh, it's Brother Jiang. I never knew Taishan. You guys come to my doghouse. Do you have something to talk to me about?"
Shen Ye Ning asked him, "Chen Ergou, half a year ago, did anyone ask you to act out a play, pretending to rob a lady from another place of hers, and then she helped to get it back herself?"
"Let me think about it. Snatching a bag, no impression?"
He has robbed so many people that he can't remember them all. Even if he could remember, he couldn't admit it. Do you think he is stupid?
"No impression? How about thinking about it carefully?"
Shen Ye Ning took out a knife from her bag, opened it, and the sharp blade emitted a terrifying cold light.
The two sturdy men behind him stepped forward and pressed Chen Ergou down on the table, holding down his hands with his palms spread out.
Seeing the knife getting closer, Chen Ergou closed his eyes, his legs shook violently, and he peed his pants out of fear. The air was filled with an unpleasant smell of urine.
At the moment when the knife was about to fall, he said quickly, "I, I remember, half a year ago, someone did come to me and gave me money to help her act out a scene, snatching a lady's bag and running into the market, and then pretending to be caught by her."
"who's that person?"
Chen Ergou negotiated with her, "As long as you promise not to arrest me, I will tell you."
Shen Ye Ning rubbed the blade with her fingertips and assured him, "We won't let you in. As long as you cooperate with us and serve as a witness, we will give you some money."
As soon as he heard that there was money, he agreed to everything, "You have money, why didn't you tell me earlier?"
"It's Chen Hongling from my village. I heard from her family that she is going to marry an officer in the army and become his wife."
"A prop knife can scare people like this. It's quite useful." Shen Ye Ning was not surprised. She had expected the result and put the knife back into the bag.
"What? Fake?"
In the past, he always used fake goods to scare others, but today he actually failed miserably and even peed his pants. It was so embarrassing.
……
When He Ye arrived on the island, the first thing he did was to go to the military hospital to visit Lu Jinglan.
He learned about He Wenbin and Chen Hongling from Shen Ye Ning.
Take Chen Ergou to negotiate with the Chen family.
It is not known what conditions he promised the other party, but the Chen family promised not to embarrass He Wenbin anymore, and the two families annulled the marriage and had no further contact from then on.
Accompanying He Ye was Shen Qi, Shen Ye Ning's elder brother whom she had only met twice.
Mayor Chen arranged for them to stay in a guesthouse in the town.
Lu Jinglan was also discharged from the hospital.
Shen Ye Ning prepared a good meal and wine to celebrate Lu Jinglan's discharge from the hospital, and invited He Ye and Shen Qi to join.
