Chapter 97: Seeing the Buddha to the West

Yan Qingshuang looked at him with disgust and said with anger: "What are you doing following us in this state? Are you afraid your grandfather has too long to live and want to send him on his way?"

If it were any other day, Chen Weiping would have talked back, but now that he had caused such a big disaster: "I'm just worried about Grandpa."

But seeing his mother on the verge of an explosion, he didn't dare to provoke her and had to take a deep breath: "I understand."

He had no choice but to head back with his newly minted wife.

What he didn't expect was that after being pointed at all the way back to his doorstep, he was stopped: "Are you Chen Weiping?"

When Chen Weiping saw that the person coming was wearing a police uniform, he shrank back inexplicably: "What do you want with me?"

The Chen family's eldest daughter-in-law, Miao Xiaohe, came up anxiously: "Weiping, where are Mom and Dad?"

Chen Weiping instinctively didn't want to answer, but seeing that everyone was looking at him, he had to say: "They went to the hospital to pick up Grandpa."

Only then did Miao Xiaohe see Hu Liru following behind Chen Weiping. Thinking of everything that had happened in the family over the past two days, and the pointing fingers of the neighbors, her heart was full of anger.

She didn't have the slightest intention of entertaining them and acted as if she didn't see them.

Kong Yizhang had to rush back to the city today and didn't have time to wait here. He turned to a Gongan officer who had followed from the county: "You take people and make a trip. I'll take them back to the bureau first."

Liu Chuxue had done them such a huge favor; naturally, they had to "see the Buddha to the West." Who told that cold-faced Yama to still be waiting at the county Gongan Bureau? He naturally had to be helpful.

At this moment, a Gongan officer stepped forward and whispered a few words in Kong Yizhang's ear. He glanced at Chen Weiping and Hu Liru beside him before turning and leaving.

Kong Yizhang looked coldly at Chen Weiping: "Let's go, come with us for a trip."

Hu Liru shook her head in fear: "Gongan comrade, we have already received our certificate. Really, if you don't believe me, look."

She hurriedly and tremblingly took out the marriage certificate they had just received from her pants pocket. She really didn't want to be taken away again.

Miao Xiaohe looked astonished: "Weidong, what's going on? Do Mom and Dad know?"

Hu Liru was terrified that the Gongan officer in front of her would be suspicious, so she hurriedly preempted: "Mom and Dad accompanied us to handle it. Sister-in-law, what do you mean by that?"

Because she hadn't been pointed at less in the last two days, Miao Xiaohe couldn't like Hu Liru. Although Chen Weidong hadn't introduced her, she could guess: "Since I didn't hear Mom and Dad mention it, naturally I have to ask clearly."

Kong Yizhang didn't have time to talk nonsense with them here and pointed at Hu Liru: "Take her too."

The two Gongan officers who followed behind stepped forward at the same time: "Behave yourself."

Chen Weidong panicked at this moment: "Gongan comrade, she isn't lying. We really did get our certificate."

Kong Yizhang snatched the marriage certificate from Hu Liru's hand: "Yo, just got it today."

After saying this, he looked at Chen Weidong with mockery: "I heard you had an engagement in the countryside before?"

As soon as these words were spoken, not only Chen Weidong, but even Hu Liru broke out in a cold sweat.

Neither of them dared to be presumptuous anymore and had to follow the people to the Gongan Bureau.

On the other side, Chen Jiefang and Yan Qingshuang were just preparing to handle the discharge procedures for the old master when the Gongan officers found them.

Fortunately, several Gongan comrades had high professional ethics and didn't enter the ward to stimulate the old master, but waited for them to come out before taking them away.

As soon as they arrived at the Gongan Bureau, the four were separated for interrogation. By synthesizing their statements, the truth was soon revealed.

All three members of the Chen family wanted to call off the engagement in the countryside, but the Chen father and son were indeed unclear about the specific matters. Yan Qingshuang admitted that she had sought out Ge Xiulan, but she firmly refused to admit that she had asked Ge Xiulan to ruin someone's purity, saying only that she wanted her to persuade the second branch to agree to call off the marriage.

Yan Qingshuang hadn't expected Ge Xiulan to cause such a big disaster and even implicate herself. She couldn't help but curse under her breath: "What a fool."
