Chapter 202: Zhang Lei Deceives Yan Fugui
When Zhang Lei saw Ye Shuqin, a gentle smile immediately appeared on his face, and he said softly, "Wife, why are you out here? It's so noisy outside."
Ye Shuqin looked at Zhang Lei and said with some helplessness, "I was so bored staying at home that I came out for some fresh air."
Zhang Lei thought about it and agreed. She had nowhere to go at home every day, and it was indeed quite boring for her to be alone. So he explained, "That's why Qin Huairu wants to sever ties with the Jia family and asked the Women's Federation to make the decision for her."
Upon hearing the words "sever ties," Ye Shuqin's eyes lit up, and she exclaimed excitedly, "Really? Husband, this is wonderful news!"
Zhang Lei smiled and nodded, then nervously added, "Just watch from here, don't push your way forward. You need to take care of yourself right now, don't tire yourself out."
Seeing Zhang Lei's nervous expression, Ye Shuqin couldn't help but laugh and said, "Honey, I'm not that delicate. I'm perfectly healthy right now."
Zhang Lei's face darkened, and he said sternly, "Even if things are fine, it won't work. Listen to me! If anyone rushes forward or the situation gets out of control, you stay close to me and don't run around, understand?"
Hearing Zhang Lei's words, Ye Shuqin felt a warm glow inside. She knew that Zhang Lei genuinely wanted to protect her. So, she quickly and obediently admitted her mistake: "Honey, I know I was wrong. I'll definitely listen to you and stay by your side. I won't go anywhere."
Seeing Ye Shuqin's docile and obedient appearance, Zhang Lei nodded in satisfaction and said, "Alright, as long as you listen to me, your man will buy you anything."
Ye Shuqin's eyes lit up, and she looked at Zhang Lei, asking, "Honey, really?"
Zhang Lei smiled and nodded: "Really. After we finish watching the excitement, I'll take you shopping."
Upon hearing the word "shopping," Ye Shuqin immediately perked up. She realized it had been a long time since she'd gone shopping, and happily replied, "Okay, honey!"
Just as Ye Shuqin finished speaking with Zhang Lei, she saw Yan Fugui walking over angrily.
Zhang Lei looked at the newcomer and asked with some confusion, "Uncle, what's wrong with you?"
Yan Fugui pointed at Zhang Lei and said angrily, "Zhang Lei, are you playing me?"
Zhang Lei was even more confused: "What's wrong? When did I ever play a trick on you?"
Yan Fugui glared at Zhang Lei and said, "Liu Haizhong went to work, he's not home! You still want me to go look for him?"
Zhang Lei suddenly realized what was happening, slapped his forehead, and said, "Oh dear, Uncle San, this really isn't my fault. You have to blame yourself."
Yan Fugui was completely confused by Zhang Lei's words and said, "What do you mean, blame me? How could you blame me?"
Zhang Lei explained with a smile, "Third Uncle, think about it, today isn't a day off, how could you be at home? Your job and mine are different. I assumed you were home and treated today as a day off, which is why I asked you to go to the backyard to find Second Uncle. If you hadn't told me Second Uncle went to work, I wouldn't have known today was a workday."
Hearing Zhang Lei's "righteous" defense, Yan Fugui's face immediately turned bright red with shame. He was home because he didn't have classes in the morning, but Zhang Lei turned the tables on him.
Yan Fugui waved his hand awkwardly and said, "Alright, alright, I've thought about it, and it's not your fault."
Seeing Yan Fugui's frustrated and helpless expression, Zhang Lei couldn't help but find it amusing, and said, "Third Uncle, don't think too much about it. Let's just watch what the Jia family does."
Soon, a loud crash of smashing plates and bowls came from the Jia family courtyard.
Immediately afterwards, Jia Zhangshi's shrill voice rang out: "Qin Huairu, you little slut! You dare to bring someone to back you up? I'll beat you to death!"
Before she could finish speaking, Jia Zhangshi lunged at Qin Huairu like a madwoman.
Qin Huairu was prepared. As soon as she saw Jia Zhangshi make a move, she screamed and turned to hide behind the women's federation comrades, like a frightened little rabbit.
The faces of the women's federation leaders turned black instantly.
She knew from Qin Huairu's tearful complaints that Jia Zhangshi was no pushover, but she never expected that Jia Zhangshi would dare to act so unruly and even physically assault people in front of them, the women's federation staff.
This is simply disregarding their Women's Federation!
The Women's Federation leader immediately stepped forward and shouted coldly, "Stop!"
Then, she gave a wink to the staff behind her, and two staff members immediately stepped forward and held Jia Zhangshi down firmly on both sides.
The Women's Federation leader pointed at Jia Zhangshi and said righteously, "Jia Zhangshi, you are a typical wicked mother-in-law. How dare you hit your daughter-in-law in front of us Women's Federation comrades! You are simply lawless!"
"You dare to attack us right here? It's unimaginable how you've bullied Comrade Qin Huairu while we were away!"
Jia Zhangshi was pinned down and unable to move, but she remained defiant. With a stiff neck, she roared, "What business is it of yours if I beat my daughter-in-law? She entered the Jia family, she's a member of the Jia family in life and in death. It's perfectly acceptable for me to beat and scold her! This is a family matter of our Jia family, and it's none of your business as outsiders!"
"Family matters?" The Women's Federation leader sneered. "Don't give me your feudalistic fallacies! This is a new society, we advocate gender equality and women's liberation!"
She paused, then her tone became even sterner: "We all saw you hitting someone just now. We've already called the police!"
"We originally came here today hoping to sit down and have a proper discussion with you about the specifics. But judging from the way things are going today, there's no need to discuss it!"
The Women's Federation leader turned to look at Qin Huairu, who was hiding behind her, her eyes softening instantly. Then she turned to Jia Zhangshi and said, word by word, "The Women's Federation is determined to handle Comrade Qin Huairu's divorce from Jia Dongxu!"
"And I can tell you right now, this divorce is final! This is the stance of our Women's Federation, and it's the organization's decision! If you're not satisfied, you can call the police, or come to our Women's Federation to reason with us!"
Upon hearing the words "call the police," Jia Zhangshi's arrogance was immediately dampened by half. However, upon hearing "it's definitely over," she became anxious again and tried to struggle to pounce on him, but was held down firmly by the staff. She could only stand there anxiously, cursing incessantly.
The neighbors who had been watching the spectacle couldn't help but gossip about it, their eyes filled with disdain as they looked at Jia Zhangshi.
