”Brother, what exactly happened at home?”
”Why did sister-in-law and Rong’er owe so much money?”
Qian Jinglan asked.
Qian Bowen took out a cigarette from his upper pocket, put it in his mouth tremblingly. Because his hands were shaking so badly, the lighter was flicked several times, but the cigarette was not lit.
It was still Ye Qiu who helped him light it.
Qian Bowen took a deep puff of the cigarette and then said, “Ye Qiu, do you think your aunt is mean, speaks badly, and is like a shrew?”
“Do you still have doubts in your heart that our Qian family is a family of scholars, and how could I marry such a woman?”
Ye Qiu nodded.
The first time he saw Cao Chunmei, he felt a little incredible. How could a woman like this enter the Qian family’s door?
“Actually, Chunmei wasn’t like this before.”
“In the past, she was knowledgeable and reasonable, virtuous and kind, and handled the family affairs in an orderly manner. She was a good wife and mother.”
“However, my father has always been dissatisfied with her because Chunmei gave birth to a daughter and didn’t have a son.”
“My father is a very traditional person, who values sons over daughters and thinks that a century-old family of scholars like ours needs a son to inherit in the future.”
“As the eldest son, I don’t have a son, which means there is no successor.”
“It is precisely because of this matter that for decades, my father has never given Chunmei a good face, but Chunmei has no complaints and has been filial to my father with all her heart.”
“Until ten years ago.”
“Ten years ago, Chunmei was pregnant. After going to the hospital for an examination, it was found that it was a boy. My father and I were very happy.”
“However, at that time, Chunmei was already in her early forties and was an elderly pregnant woman. After seven months of pregnancy, there was a premature birth and the child was not saved.”
“This matter was a great blow to us, especially Chunmei. At that time, she was almost crazy, crying all day long and muddled.”
“I was worried that something would happen to Chunmei, so I asked Rong’er to take Chunmei out to relax. They went to Macau and both became addicted to gambling.”
“They spent all the family’s savings and secretly took out and sold the antiques given to my father by his students. In total, they lost several million.”
“It was also from that time on that Chunmei and Rong’er’s dispositions changed greatly, as if they had become completely different people.”
My father was furious and wanted to drive them out of the house. It was I who pleaded with my father’s pleading and promised to help them quit gambling that my father agreed to let them stay at home.”
“I locked them mother and daughter at home and sent people to watch over them. For a full six months, I didn’t let them mother and daughter take a step out of the house.”
“In those few years, they mother and daughter really didn’t gamble anymore.”
“But last year, they found a gambling software on their mobile phones and became addicted again.”
“I am also responsible for this matter. At that time, I thought they were just playing with their mobile phones and didn’t pay attention.”
“Who knew that a month ago, I came back very late from a business trip and found that the light in Chunmei’s room was still on in the middle of the night. She and Rong’er were arguing. I was puzzled and listened outside the door for a while before I found out that they not only gambled on their mobile phones but also owed a lot of money.”
“I was furious at that time. After rushing in and interrogating them, I found out that they had applied for more than a dozen credit cards and cashed out nearly two million.”
“They also borrowed a lot of small loans, at least one million.”
“They also borrowed three million in usury outside. Now, including the interest, I’m afraid it’s no less than ten million.”
“They asked Jinglan to sign a property waiver, probably also wanting to get the old house and then sell it to pay off the debt.”
“They… They…”
Qian Bowen said up to here, trying his best to control his anger and whisperin a low voice: They are really bold and dare to murder their father.
“I really want to strangle them.”
Qian Bowen put out the cigarette butt, then held his face in both hands, sobbing in a low voice and said: “It’s all my fault that things have developed like this.”
“If I didn’t let Chunmei get pregnant, she wouldn’t have had a big change in her temperament and wouldn’t have been addicted to gambling.”
“If I didn’t let Rong’er accompany Chunmei to relax, Rong’er wouldn’t have become addicted to gambling either.”
“If I had the ability to help them pay off the gambling debts, then they wouldn’t have made their father angry and wouldn’t have borrowed usury either.”
“I hate myself so much. I hate…”
Pop pop pop!
Under the pain in his heart, Qian Bowen slapped himself a few times.
Ye Qiu also didn’t expect that there was such a hidden story. He gently sighed and said that it is said that heroes who is addicted to gambling often go bankrupt and heroes without money become beggars. Even if there is a great fortune once addicted to gambling, it will be lost.
Besides, the Qian family was not originally a very rich family.
Ye Qiu asked, “Uncle, what are you going to do about the matter that your wife and daughter murdered your father?”
”The Qian family is a century-old family of scholars. Once this kind of thing gets out, it will lose face.”
I suggest dealing with it in a low-key manner. Anyway, only the three of us know the truth now. As long as we don’t say anything, no one else will know.”
“Ye Qiu, thank you for considering me.” Qian Bowen said painfully, “But, can this kind of thing be dealt with low profile?”
They murdered my father, which is extremely immoral. If I continue to protect them, wouldn’t I become an unfilial son?
”When my father wakes up, how can I face him?”
”Even if I don’t tell my father the truth, but hiding it day and night, I will also feel uneasy in my heart.”
”Moreover, their mother and daughter have such a serious gambling addiction. Even if we let them go, they won’t reform.”
Let’s first find the annoying things, ask the reason, and then wait for my father to wake up and let him deal with them!
Qian Bowen said this, and tears welled up in his eyes again. He said in a trembling voice:
”Based on my understanding of my father, he will definitely hand them over to the police.”
After all, they are my wife and daughter. If they are handed over to the police, their rest of the life will be completely ruined.
”Jinglan, will you help me plead with my father at that time? As long as they are not handed over to the police, anything is fine. Do you think it’s okay?”
Qian Jinglan’s heart was also mixed with emotions, and she nodded slightly.
……
Cao Chunmei and Qian Rong were standing in the courtyard.
Mom, that bastard and dad have been in there for so long, why haven’t they come out yet?” Qian Rong asked. “Did he find something?
What could he find?” Cao Chunmei said disdainfully. “He was holding a compass in his hand earlier, acting like a charlatan.
Qian Rong was still a little worried and said, “He said he has found the cause of the disease. Could it be…”
Cao Chunmei said, “Don’t listen to his nonsense. There is no disease in the old man at all. How could he find the cause of the disease?”
Then why did the three national medical masters testify for him?
Those three old guys are not good things either. Most likely, they are in cahoots with that bastard.
After Cao Chunmei finished speaking, she added, “I don’t know what’s going on, but that bastard always gives me a very dangerous feeling. We have to think of a way to make him leave the house as soon as possible to avoid complications.”
Hmm.” Qian Rong nodded.”
Just then, the door of the main room opened.
Ye Qiu and the other two walked out from inside.
