~18 min read 3,498 words

On the other side, the Chen family.

At this time, the Chen family had just finished dinner and were gathered on the sofa, looking at Chen Zitong, who had rushed in.

Including Zhong Lan and Chen Xiaomi.

Including the sisters Chen Xiaohong and Chen Xiaoyun, who had heard the news and rushed over.

Chen Xiaomi raised her right wrist to check her watch and was the first to ask her little niece:

"Zitong, why are you only back now?"

Chen Zitong didn't make a sound, her eyeballs rolled around, she glanced at her mother, then at her big aunt and second aunt, and finally stretched out a hand in front of Chen Xiaomi.

Seeing this, Zhong Lan snorted, and her temper was about to flare up again.

Chen Zitong was so scared that she moved slightly away from her mother, but her right hand was still stretched toward her little aunt.

Chen Xiaomi found it funny, thinking to herself who this little niece's obsession with money was like, and asked her, "Money is not a problem. Tell me about the situation today."

Chen Zitong shook her head like a rattle, making a ding-dong sound, "Little Aunt, you give me the 10-yuan reward first, and I guarantee the news I tell won't let down your money."

Second Aunt Chen Xiaohong asked, "What news is worth 10 yuan?"

Chen Zitong shouted loudly, "Second Aunt, my news is earth-shattering and ghost-weeping. You will definitely be shocked when I say it. 10 yuan is already a friendship price."

Seeing that her sister-in-law was about to flare up, Chen Xiaomi took out her wallet, took out a "Big Unity" (10-yuan note) from inside, and handed it over.

Chen Zitong grabbed the money almost like a robbery, stuffed it into her pocket at high speed, and then reached out again.

Chen Xiaomi asked, "What? You want more?"

Chen Zitong said, "10 yuan is the information reward. I ate dinner outside, had a bowl of noodles, and spent my own money. You have to compensate me 1.5 yuan."

Big Aunt Chen Xiaoyun also laughed at this time, "What kind of noodles are so expensive? Need 1.5 yuan?"

Chen Zitong argued, "Of course it wasn't just noodles. There are so many delicious things on the roadside. I bought whatever I craved. Anyway, there's reimbursement when I get back, ha."

In order to hear the news as soon as possible, Chen Xiaomi took out another 1.5 yuan in change and stuffed it into her hand, "Can you say it now?"

"Of course, money can make ghosts push the mill, so naturally I can say it."

Chen Zitong completely ignored the dark faces of several elders. After sitting on the sofa, she began to tell it vividly:

"Let's say my sister dressed up like a fairy today, happily like a hungry noblewoman all the way, and descended from the sky to the second floor of the hotel..."

When she got to this point, she paused and looked at her aunts with burning eyes, "I know the hotel room number, only 50 cents."

Chen Xiaohong actually took 50 cents for her and teased, "You will definitely be a good hand at doing business in the future."

With the money in her pocket, Chen Zitong danced and said, "I saw my sister walking gracefully to Room 208, raised her hand and knocked on the door, but there was no response inside."

"She raised her hand and knocked on the door again. This time the door opened. She and the man inside the door stared at each other for a long time, whew! Suddenly a pair of big hands stretched out from the door like lightning and hugged my sister's waist."

"Then with a 'bang', the door closed..."

Seeing that her mother and three aunts were listening intently, Chen Zitong started to sell suspense again:

"Want to know how long my sister stayed in the room? What happened? 4 yuan."

The atmosphere suddenly became a bit heavy. Seeing her own mother and aunts staring at her without blinking, Chen Zitong felt a bit hair-raising and immediately shouted:

"Half price, I'll give you half price, 2 yuan, the last charge, and I'll give you what they ate tonight?"

Zhong Lan was anxious and couldn't wait to know the following, so she growled, "Speak!"

Chen Zitong lowered her head like an ostrich, sticking to the bottom line of not opening her mouth without money.

Zhong Lan urged, "Do you want to be beaten?"

Chen Zitong muttered, "Friendly reminder, my sister and Sister Wu of the restaurant said: Li Heng is her partner, and they are engaged in their hometown."

Hearing this, the four looked at each other for a while, and Chen Xiaomi decisively paid another 2 yuan, "Don't play tricks again, otherwise Little Aunt won't give you money in the future."

With money, things are easy to handle. Chen Zitong guaranteed with her character, "I will definitely finish it in one breath."

"Let's say the door closed, it was quiet inside for a while, and then the door made a thumping sound. Ha, this is my exaggeration, don't look at me like that, I'm uncomfortable."

"Then the curtains were pulled shut, and later, later do you really want to hear? Li Heng is so fierce..."

Zhong Lan had already guessed what happened next, and was so angry that she couldn't catch her breath, staring, "If you dare to stop again, I will tear your mouth apart."

"Aren't book reviews and operas all like this..."

Chen Zitong complained and continued, "From 1:02 in the afternoon, it lasted until 5:41 in the afternoon, and the two of them came out."

"I calculated it, the time is 4 hours and 39 minutes."

As soon as this was said, the living room was dead silent!

It was as if it was permeated by a terrifying aura, eerily terrible!

Zhong Lan's face was as heavy as water, her hands clenched, as if she might explode at any time.

Seeing her sister-in-law like this, Chen Xiaoyun hurriedly broke the silence and asked, "In broad daylight, did they really stay in the room for so long?"

Chen Zitong exerted her professional spirit, "It's absolutely true. I ran outside the hotel to look at the window for a while, and ran to the door to listen to the movement inside for a while. The hotel staff wanted to drive me away, but I reported Uncle Zhou's name and they didn't do anything to me."

Uncle Zhou was a deputy director, a classmate of Chen Gaoyuan, and their relationship was extremely ironclad. That area was under his jurisdiction.

Hearing this, Chen Xiaohong said to Chen Xiaoyun, "Big Sister, it's best not to let the matter of Zijin in the hotel room spread out. Big Brother hasn't come back yet. Among us, you are the most familiar with Zhou Jian, so call him and tell him."

Although she dared to conclude that Zhou Jian wouldn't talk nonsense, Chen Xiaoyun still didn't dare to be careless, so she immediately picked up the landline to dial, and it was done in a while.

Chen Xiaomi pursued, "What about later?"

Seeing that the atmosphere was wrong, Chen Zitong poured out everything she knew like pouring beans.

Including what the two ate for dinner?

Where did they go shopping after the meal?

What gifts did they buy?

What clothes did Li Heng wear today? What hairstyle, etc...

Of course, she also pried words from Sister Wu of the restaurant and told them all together.

After listening to her words, the three aunts had a thought in their minds: what is "loving one's job," this is called professional. Although it was a bit expensive, it was indeed worth the money.

However, worth the money was worth the money, but it couldn't dispel the heavy, depressed air pressing on several people's hearts.

Especially Zhong Lan, who was like a volcano about to erupt at this moment. Even though she sat there motionless, the three sisters-in-law could clearly feel her anger that was about to be uncontrollable.

Everyone present was not a fool. Chen Zijin, who had always been well-behaved and sensible, had shown the style of a lady from a famous family in other aspects, but once she encountered things related to Li Heng, she was like being hit by a love poison, never listening to advice, and often causing unhappiness with her family.

Intuition told them that Zijin's behavior today was intentional, just to show the family, to show them.

The purpose was self-evident: to convey a signal to the family, don't even think about separating the two.

As the atmosphere became more and more oppressive, and as her sister-in-law's eyes became more and more gloomy, Chen Xiaomi, who had met Li Heng in Shaoshi and felt the deepest, stood out at this time:

"Sister-in-law, it's still early, why don't we go out for a walk? Watch a movie?"

Zhong Lan said with hatred for iron not becoming steel, "We are not going anywhere, wait for her to come back."

Seeing this, several people who knew her sister-in-law's temper didn't persuade her anymore, and their eyes looked at the door in unison, waiting for Chen Zijin to return.

In the anxious waiting, time passed second by second...

However, Chen Zijin hadn't waited yet, but Chen Gaoyuan, who came home from work, had waited.

Chen Gaoyuan asked as soon as he entered the door, "What happened? Why do you all have this look?"

Chen Zitong turned back and said, "Dad, sister went to see Li Heng and hasn't come back yet."

Chen Gaoyuan checked the time, 7:21.

He smiled and said, "It's still early, the sky hasn't completely darkened yet."

Chen Zitong added silently, "Sister and Li Heng stayed in the hotel room for more than 4 hours."

Chen Gaoyuan couldn't laugh anymore, put down his bag with his right hand, sat on the other side and asked, "What's going on, tell me."

Chen Zitong told the situation she knew.

After the little daughter finished speaking, Zhong Lan came out with a sudden sentence, "Chen Gaoyuan, do you still dare to believe her now?"

Chen Gaoyuan's face was embarrassed. He only said at noon that he should believe Zijin. He didn't expect the slap in the face to come so quickly, "Where are they?"

Chen Zitong replied, "Shopping outside, should be back soon."

Speak of Cao Cao, and Cao Cao arrives!

Look, as soon as Chen Zitong's voice fell, the sound of the courtyard door closing came from outside.

Then the footsteps got closer and closer, and a figure in a sky-blue floral dress appeared at the door.

As soon as Chen Zijin appeared, the eyes in the room shot over in unison.

Feeling that their emotions were wrong, Chen Zijin at the door paused, but in the next second, she walked toward the crowd calmly.

"Dad, you are back."

"Big Aunt, Second Aunt, you are here too."

After Chen Zijin greeted everyone, she put down the gift and prepared to go to the bedroom to change clothes.

Although this dress was very new and it was only the second time she wore it today, that person was too involved in that matter, and a small opening was torn in one place, and the front of the dress had also been bitten by him for a long time, and it was a bit wrinkled. She wanted to wash it clean and iron it flat.

Of course, the dress outside was still okay, and one might not see anything unusual at a glance.

But the underwear inside was completely ruined. A shoulder strap was about to break, and she had been trembling with fear all the way here.

Seeing her daughter greet the three aunts but not herself, seeing her daughter call Gaoyuan but not herself, seeing her daughter's arrogant attitude of going straight back to the bedroom, Zhong Lan's suppressed emotions suddenly erupted:

"Where are you going? Come back to me, stand still!"

Chen Zijin ignored her, covering her left shoulder with her right hand and continuing to walk toward the bedroom. Just now, she clearly felt the shoulder strap break.

Zhong Lan stood up with a "pia" sound and shouted sternly, "What? With a man outside, you don't have me as a mother in your eyes anymore?

That little thing came to find you, do you really think you are favored? As soon as you met, he blocked you in the room for an afternoon, isn't it just for your body!"

The war, unexpectedly and expectedly, broke out suddenly!

Chen Zijin heard her mother using her status to pressure her, knowing that her own mother had fire to vent, so she didn't fight back, turned around, and sat down next to her sister in depression.

Zhong Lan's anger value was still soaring at this moment, and she was still outputting orally: "If he really had you in his heart, if he was really for your good, how could he force you to do that kind of thing in broad daylight?

You are good! For his sake, you don't even want your face, you don't want your home, you don't even want your parents. I really raised you for nothing!"

These words were too ugly. Chen Gaoyuan wanted to speak, but was glared back by his wife's angry eyes. Knowing that his wife was in a fit of anger, it was useless to say anything.

Chen Zijin glanced at Chen Zitong. The betrayer Chen Zitong immediately lowered her head, her hands intertwined, not daring to make a sound.

Chen Zijin retorted with a pale look: "He didn't force me, I was willing, I asked him to carry me to the bed."

"You! You! You are going to piss me off!" Zhong Lan's chest heaved violently, pointing at her eldest daughter, unable to speak for a while.

Chen Xiaomi, Chen Xiaohong, and Chen Xiaoyun looked at each other, their eyes full of disbelief. They didn't expect their eldest niece to be so fierce today, even daring to say things like being carried to bed. In the Chen family, this was simply rebellious!

Finally, Big Sister Chen Xiaoyun spoke to comfort her: "Sister-in-law, calm down, the neighbors will hear if the voice is too loud."

Having already lost face in her hometown, this sentence was indeed effective. Zhong Lan gasped for a while, stabilized her emotions slightly, stared at her eldest daughter's eyes, and said, "You are also an adult, and you are not young anymore, why don't you have a few more hearts? Ah? Why are you still so stupid?

Why did you take the initiative to send it to the door today? And let him succeed?

You are a woman, so self-unloving, the one who suffers on the bed is yourself. He pulls up his pants and has nothing to do. When he gets tired of you in the future, he can find someone else. At that time, you will cry to death!"

Seeing her daughter not making a sound, Zhong Lan became more angry the more she thought about it, and the higher her blood pressure became, her voice grew a few points louder unconsciously: "He is famous now, and he has a few dollars in his pocket. It would be fine if he studied in Jingcheng for four years of university.

If he goes to another place, let's see if you can keep him! I have never seen such a stupid person. He is fooling you as a fool."

Seeing her daughter still not speaking, Zhong Lan pushed away her husband's hand and asked fiercely, "Where is that little thing? You dare to go against the family for him, why doesn't he dare to come to the house for you?

Ah? Is he afraid of losing face? Or holding a grudge? Or playing with you, with a ghost in his heart?"

Chen Zijin turned her head away, still ignoring her.

Zhong Lan clenched her right fist and punched the coffee table: "Speak! I'm talking to you!"

This punch was with anger, and the sound was very loud, which suddenly startled everyone in the room.

Chen Zijin turned her head back and retorted without showing weakness: "It's not some little thing, he has a name and a surname, his name is Li Heng. Why should he come to the house alone? To let you beat him?"

Hearing the word "beat," Chen Xiaomi, Chen Xiaohong, and Chen Xiaoyun all felt awkward, but at this juncture, they didn't come out to blame anything.

Chen Gaoyuan asked to smooth things over: "Zijin, where is Li Heng, where is he now?"

Chen Zijin said: "Sent to the hutong entrance and went back."

Then she added a sentence: "I let him go."

A sentence "I let him go" made the room quiet. This seemingly simple sentence revealed many hidden problems in the past.

One is that Chen Zijin expressed her dissatisfaction for the first time and publicly, dissatisfaction with her mother, and dissatisfaction with the three aunts.

The second is the irreconcilable contradiction between the Chen and Li families.

Was it really Zijin who let Li Heng go?

That might not be the case.

The people in the room all work in the system, and everyone is a human spirit. After a little pondering, they understand: Li Heng has resentment toward the Chen family, and it's not small.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have slept with someone's daughter and not entered the door when he arrived at the door.

In order to verify the guess, Chen Xiaomi asked, "Did Li Heng buy this gift?"

Chen Zijin said "Hmm."

Chen Xiaomi asked again, "Who did he buy it for?"

Chen Zijin said, "For Grandfather."

Listen, listen, Chen Xiaomi looked at several people, the matter was clear, Li Heng only bought gifts for the old man, but didn't buy for others.

Especially Zijin's parents, the eldest brother and sister-in-law, didn't have a share.

This is obviously closeness with distance, and many things are almost on the table.

Looking at the essence through the phenomenon, Chen Gaoyuan sighed, "You did too much at the beginning. It seems that Run'e has a lot of resentment toward our family."

Zhong Lan snorted, "We are excessive? If it were her, it would be even worse!"

Chen Zijin said at this time, "I said, I was willing, why do you keep blaming him."

Zhong Lan increased her tone, "Still helping him with pig oil covering your heart, you wait! If you don't listen to the old man's words, you will suffer in front of your eyes, and you will have bitterness to eat in the future!"

Hearing this, Chen Zijin stood up again, and while walking toward the bedroom, said, "The person I chose myself, even if there is bitterness to eat, I will bear it."

Chen Zijin returned to the bedroom, leaving a crowd of people there dumbfounded!

In the past, although Chen Zijin also talked back and often disagreed with Zhong Lan on Li Heng's issues, the intensity had never been as strong as today, and the scope of radiation had never been as wide as today.

It was simply the first time, unprecedented.

Chen Zitong curled up and shivered. If she had known that her sister was so fierce, she would have shed tears and not earned this money today. She prayed that her sister could be generous and forget herself like a fart afterward.

Zhong Lan almost vomited blood: "You see! You see! As soon as that bastard came, her wings became hard and she wanted to fly. It really pissed me off! It really pissed me off!!!"

At this moment, the little thing in Zhong Lan's mouth finally upgraded to a bastard, which shows how resentful she is.

Chen Xiaomi poured a cup of tea for several people and said, "Sister-in-law, no matter how wrong Zijin is, she is also your daughter. Don't get so angry. She is grown up, this will affect your mother-daughter relationship."

Zhong Lan raised her eyebrows: "She is grown up, so she is not the meat that fell off my body? Let's see what ability she has!"

Saying that, Zhong Lan said, "No, I have to meet that bastard tomorrow. I want to see what's different about him after becoming a writer.

Don't really think that you can do whatever you want after becoming a writer. Our Chen family doesn't get used to him."

If Li Heng and his wife met, one with anger and one with resentment, it might spark sparks and make things bigger. Chen Gaoyuan came out and said:

"Lanlan, drink some tea, calm down, I will go see Li Heng tomorrow."

Chen Xiaomi followed, "Big Brother, I will go with you tomorrow."

Chen Zitong thought she heard it wrong, and her head finally raised, "Little Aunt, you are also Li Heng's enemy."
