Chapter 1106 He's Going Mad
"Auntie, have you seen my mother-in-law?"
At noon, Qin Huairu, who was at the hospital taking care of Jia Zhangshi, waited for her in vain, so she took some time to go back to the courtyard house.
She guessed that Jia Zhangshi must have not slept well last night while taking care of her, so she fell asleep at home.
However, while Jia Zhangshi slept comfortably, she and Banggeng were still hungry!
Especially for the barnacles, which have just undergone surgery, they need nutrition to heal their wounds.
Upon hearing this, the third aunt glanced at Qin Huairu and casually replied, "Jia Zhangshi, she's been arrested."
What the hell?
Jia Zhangshi has been arrested?
Qin Huairu subconsciously thought that her second aunt was talking nonsense.
Jia Zhangshi hasn't done anything wrong recently, so how could she have been arrested?
Even if he tried to extort money from Chen Jun yesterday, he didn't succeed. Logically, he shouldn't have been arrested.
"What happened? Why was my mother-in-law arrested? Who arrested her?" Qin Huairu asked anxiously.
Nowadays, apart from the money from selling workstations, the Jia family relies entirely on Jia Zhangshi's manure cart for survival.
If they were sent to a labor camp like last time, the Jia family's world would truly collapse.
"Oh, she reported Chen Jun for profiteering and embezzling money by abusing his position as the canteen director, and then she was arrested by the security department." After saying that, the third aunt looked at the pitiful Qin Huairu and advised, "Qin Huairu, your family is already struggling enough. You should behave yourself from now on and not offend anyone recklessly, especially Chen Jun. He's really acting strangely right now!"
Is the righteous turning evil?
Qin Huairu did not understand the meaning of this word.
Is this auntie praising someone or insulting them?
Who would be so righteous as to turn evil?
But regardless, the reason why Jia Zhangshi went in has been found out.
Sigh, I've reminded myself so many times, I should never mess with Chen Jun.
But Jia Zhangshi wouldn't listen to any of it. Not only did she try to extort money, she also reported Chen Jun for speculation and profiteering.
"Auntie, reporting someone doesn't warrant arresting them, does it?" Qin Huairu wanted to know the specifics of the situation.
Since the third aunt had nothing else to do at the moment, she told Qin Huairu everything that had happened that morning.
After saying that, she added, "Don't listen to your mother-in-law in everything from now on. She's... well, her mind seems a bit off, just like Jia Dongxu before."
The three women strongly suspected that Jia Dongxu's mental illness was inherited from Jia Zhangshi.
As for why it wasn't Lao Jia, it's because Lao Jia passed away early and didn't show any symptoms of mental illness.
Qin Huairu was completely stunned after hearing the whole thing.
Chen Jun's family actually has such a big treasure!
No wonder the security personnel took Jia Zhangshi away and even detained her for several days.
On the surface, it appears to be a punishment for Jia Zhangshi's false accusations.
Upon closer reflection, Qin Huairu even felt that the security personnel were protecting Jia Zhangshi.
As long as he arrests and detains the person for a few days, Chen Jun will stop making things difficult for Jia Zhangshi.
That calligraphy belongs to the old man himself. Even if it were Section Chief Lü himself, let alone Captain Liu from the Security Department, he would have to leave in full step.
"Sigh, you know my mother-in-law's personality; she never listens to me," Qin Huairu sighed, looking very distressed.
The third aunt sighed as she looked at Qin Huairu.
In her opinion, Qin Huairu was indeed unlucky.
She originally thought that marrying into the city would bring her a good life.
But who would have thought I'd end up with such a mother-in-law?
It's bad enough that Qin Huairu's mother-in-law is strong-willed and unreasonable, but to make matters worse, her husband, Jia Dongxu, is also a disappointment.
After learning fitter skills from Yi Zhonghai for so many years, he ended up with nothing.
In the end, he died young, leaving Qin Huairu with two children and a mother-in-law.
Now that his eldest son, Banggeng, has had his QQ account uninstalled and needs someone to take care of him, Jia Zhangshi just had to jump out and cause trouble, provoking the person in the courtyard who is the least worthy of being messed with.
As a result, he was taken away by the security department.
Qin Huairu was left to take care of Banggeng alone.
"Don't be too sad. I reckon the security department will release him in a few days," the third aunt comforted her.
Qin Huairu pretended to wipe away her tears, then choked out, "Third Aunt, can I borrow some food from you? Bang Geng is still starving at the hospital."
"It was supposed to be my mother-in-law who went home to cook, but now she's... sob sob sob."
As she spoke, Qin Huairu suddenly burst into tears.
Upon seeing this, the three women cursed under their breath.
That's fucking damn good!
Jia Zhangshi caused trouble, so much so that Qin Huairu came to her to borrow food.
She may be pitiful, but it was very upsetting for the third aunt to try to get anything from her.
"Our family..."
"Waaaaah... My poor bastard..."
Harmful!
The aunt waved her hand helplessly: "I still have some steamed cornbread left over from this morning. I'll give you two."
At this point, the three aunties felt extremely distressed.
Two steamed buns, that's money too!
"Thank you, Auntie. I'll make my mother-in-law pay you back when she gets out," Qin Huairu said gratefully.
"No need," the old lady waved her hand dismissively.
It wasn't that she was generous, but rather that asking Jia Zhangshi for cornbread was harder than climbing to heaven.
Let's just consider these two cornbreads as a way to appease the beggar.
Just after the third aunt went back to the house to get the cornbread, Qin Huairu went back to the backyard to look for the money that Jia Zhangshi had hidden at home.
Unfortunately, I couldn't find it.
Having no other choice, Qin Huairu went to the security department to find Jia Zhangshi.
After registering with the security department, Qin Huairu saw Jia Zhangshi, who was being held captive.
"mom!"
"Where did you put the money at home? Bang Geng still needs his dressing changed!"
Qin Huairu didn't waste any words and went straight to the point, asking Jia Zhangshi for money.
"You heartless bastard, you didn't say a word of concern, all you did was ask for money. I must have had the worst luck in eight lifetimes to let a jinx like you into my house."
The first thing Jia Zhangshi said was a string of curses.
She felt that Qin Huairu had no conscience at all. Even if she didn't help find connections to get her out, shouldn't she at least show some concern?
But Qin Huairu didn't even pretend; the first thing she said when they met was about money.
"Isn't this because Bang Geng is in a hurry to change his dressing?" Qin Huairu pouted.
If it weren't for Jia Zhangshi controlling the family finances, Qin Huairu wouldn't have bothered coming to the security department.
"Find someone to let me out first."
Jia Zhangshi didn't want to hand the money over to Qin Huairu directly, nor did she want to stay in the security department indefinitely.
"Mom, no one dares to let you out." Qin Huairu sighed, "You must not provoke Chen Jun again in the future. He is not someone we can afford to offend."
"Why should he? He's just a lowly canteen manager, how powerful can he be?" Jia Zhangshi shouted indignantly. "I trusted the security department too much. If it had been the police from the government that came back to the compound with me this morning, Chen Jun would have been arrested by now."
