Chapter 422 The Zhuang Family Members Go Offline
A week later, Granny Zhuang and her daughter-in-law, Ganmei, came to her door for the third time. Zhuang Chaoying watched as they finally agreed to write a letter of understanding.
In front of the police officers, Zhuang Chaoying produced two agreements.
The agreement clearly states that if Zhuang Ganmei causes trouble again, it must be dealt with according to the law, and he will never forgive her again. In addition, Zhuang Ganmei must give Huang Ling 500 yuan as compensation for mental distress.
Just in case, he even bought a video recorder from the system store. He recorded Zhuang Ganmei reading the agreement word by word before stopping.
Zhuang Chaoying held up three copies of the agreement: one for the Public Security Bureau's records, and one for each of them.
“It’s all in black and white, and I even recorded it. If you dare to cause trouble again, I’ll send a copy to your workplace, as well as to the schools in Zhendong and Zhenbei. You can think about it.”
Zhuang Ganmei looked at Zhuang Chaoying, her heart itching with hatred, but she could only obediently do as she was told.
Seeing that Zhuang Chaoying had relented, Granny Zhuang nodded hurriedly in agreement. "No, no, it's not like I'm rushing to catch up with you."
Zhuang Ganmei's week in the detention center felt like an eternity.
On his first day in, he was given "special treatment" by the cell boss and a group of people.
They covered Zhuang Ganmei's head with a blanket and gave him a good beating with "Give Me Back My Beauty Punch," leaving him dizzy and disoriented.
That night, he was assigned to sleep in the last bunk, right next to the chamber pot.
When those people got up to urinate at night, their urine splashed everywhere, and they even held his head down, making him look at such an eyesore.
He had never suffered like this before.
Back home, he was the apple of his parents' eye. As their youngest son, he had never gone hungry and had never even washed his own clothes. But here, he not only had to wash other people's feet and socks, but he also had to wash their underwear.
Moreover, the glaring light from sleeping in the dark made it impossible for him to sleep.
When his mother and wife came to pick him up, he looked as if he had aged ten years in an instant.
He had lost a lot of weight, his hair was a mess like a knotted rope, his eyes were dark-rimmed, and he looked completely listless.
Seeing his older brother's slightly sinister sneer, he couldn't help but shudder again. He knew he couldn't beat his boss, so he decided to just live his own quiet life from now on. He never wanted to set foot in this hellish place again.
As she was leaving, Zhuang Chaoying walked up to Zhuang Ganmei, and a strong, foul odor wafted towards her.
He lowered his voice. "Ganmei, how does it feel to sleep next to the toilet? If you cause trouble again, or if I find out you're up to something behind my back, it won't be as simple as it was this time, understand?"
Zhuang Ganmei was suddenly startled. How did the eldest brother know that she was sleeping next to the chamber pot?
Did he arrange all this?
Thinking of this, he felt his legs go weak and quickly nodded. "Brother, I know, I know."
After saying that, he hurriedly pulled Grandma Zhuang and her daughter-in-law forward, repeatedly muttering, "Mom, I want to go home, I want to go home."
Zhuang Chaoying watched their departing figures, a cold smile curling at the corner of her lips.
Serves him right. This is a classic case of reaping what you sow. This was just an appetizer for him.
Zhuang Chaoying now deeply understands that some people who commit evil deeds when they are young still have bad habits when they are old.
Just like Zhuang Ganmei, when he was in school, he went to the streets to shout slogans, persecuted many people, and had improper relationships with young girls and widows.
When they get older, they'll definitely be one of those "bad guys who've grown old," unable to shake their habits of grabbing seats and taking advantage of others...
People like this need to be taught a lesson and shown what rules and bottom lines are.
. . . . . . .
Around 7 p.m., Zhuang Xiaoting, Lin Dongzhe, Zhuang Tunan, and Zhang Wanshu were at a small noodle shop outside Fudan University. Pengfei was too far away in Minhang to come over.
These are all close relatives, so of course they would discuss things together.
Zhuang Tunan and Zhang Wanshu had just arrived from the construction site. As soon as they entered, they gently put their safety helmets aside, still covered in dust from the site.
Zhuang Xiaoting couldn't wait to ask, "Brother, did Dad call you?"
Zhuang Tunan smiled and first put a piece of beef from his bowl into Wanshu's and Xiaoting's bowls, then slurped up a mouthful of noodles. "The pregnancy is over, mother and daughter are safe, we have another little sister now, Xiaoting, you're not the youngest anymore."
Lin Dongzhe sat to the side, but in his mind he was thinking that he had never seen what Xiaoting looked like when she was the youngest. Now he could finally fulfill his wish. Now he had a little sister who shared the same blood as Xiaoting. He was looking forward to the idea that this little one might look a lot like Xiaoting.
He glanced at Xiaoting furtively, thinking how wonderful it would be if he and Xiaoting could have a lovely daughter someday.
He looked at Zhuang Tunan and Zhang Wanshu with a hint of envy, wondering when he would finally be able to get his marriage certificate with Xiaoting.
With exams approaching, Zhuang Xiaoting has been spending all her time in the library studying diligently.
Lin Dongzhe had heard Uncle Zhuang praise his intelligence since he was a child, and he himself believed that he was very smart. In his opinion, as long as he could get a passing score of 60 on the exam, everything would be fine.
However, Xiaoting gives her all in every exam.
Her efforts paid off, and at the end of last semester, she ranked first among the 134 classes in the Chinese Department.
I received the school's first-class scholarship, a full 150 yuan.
Although Lin Dongzhe felt that Xiaoting was working too hard, he couldn't bear to disturb her studies. Even just quietly watching her focused profile in the library was a kind of happiness for him.
A few days ago, Zhuang Xiaoting told him that Aunt Huang had given birth to a baby girl, and he was overjoyed.
The thought of having another lovely little girl, like Xiaoting, growing up and sweetly surrounding him, calling him "Brother-in-law, Brother-in-law" filled him with immense joy.
"Brother, sister-in-law, I'm going back to Suzhou with Lin Dongzhe this week. Do you two have time? Are you busy at the construction site?"
Zhuang Tunan swallowed the noodles in his mouth. "We'll definitely go back. Your sister-in-law and I will. If it's really impossible, we'll just take a day off. The hospital we designed is under construction, and we graduate students have to take turns watching over it."
Zhang Wanshu nodded in agreement. "Mom is having a baby girl, so Tu Nan and I definitely have to go back. Tomorrow is Saturday, so we'll take the night bus back and then take the night bus back the next day. The timing is perfect."
When Zhang Wanshu first heard Tu Nan say that her mother was pregnant, she was actually somewhat opposed to it.
After all, Aunt Huang is getting on in years, and she can't help but worry that if something unexpected happens, the child might need her and Tu Nan to take care of him.
People always subconsciously consider their own interests, which is a manifestation of human nature's tendency to seek profit.
Fortunately, Aunt Huang is in much better health than her peers, and her child was born smoothly, which finally put her mind at ease.
Moreover, after spending time with him, she realized that Tu Nan's family was much better off than her own, as evidenced by the lavishness of his family's spending at their wedding and the strength they had demonstrated in their previous business dealings.
Looking back on her initial thoughts, she feels somewhat ashamed, realizing that she had indeed misunderstood.
So now that she knows her mother has given birth to a younger sister, she is genuinely happy.
