Chapter 249: Chapter 245 What Have You Tortured Me Into【12 Updates】
——————
If it hadn’t been for Xie Jingchen, an officer who had stumbled upon and rescued his daughter, and was willing to pay to "buy" his own daughter, how much more suffering and hardship would his daughter have had to endure?
Yan Dongsheng only had to think about how Yan Jinxian’s monthly allowance was no less than 30 to 50 yuan—while his own daughter had grown up in hardship until she was eighteen, and was immediately forced to sell herself cheaply for her brother’s marriage, then couldn’t bear it and attempted suicide, and ultimately was bought by an older man [by ten years] for 300 yuan!
The more he thought about it, the more he wanted to hang up that ’daughter’ in the back car and give her a beating!
Among all these documents, the only person who clearly knew that the daughter was swapped was definitely Lin Zhaodi!
Without a doubt!
When the Yan Family drove into Shanglin Village, it just happened to be the moment Zhang Dongliang was kneeling before Zhang Zhiguo to admit his mistakes—
"Commander, the gate is closed." The driver who was also Yan Dongsheng’s guard, under the vague impression given by Qi Chunlan, and Yan Dongsheng’s faint memory, and with guidance from some villagers, successfully arrived in front of the Zhang Family’s gate.
When the two military cars arrived at the gate of the Zhang Family Mansion, the Zhang father and son were still struggling, Lin Zhaodi was preparing to continue cursing, but was startled by the sudden ’bang’ of the big gate flinging open.
Obviously, the mansion gate was loosely closed, and the military car barged in without any politeness, its momentum stirring up a whirlwind of dust in the yard.
The villagers who had been following behind the military car to watch the excitement were suddenly scared by the vehicle’s fierce charge and those with the presence of mind immediately sent young men to notify the village head’s family, as well as Zhang Zhiguo’s old uncle and cousin.
"Ptui ptui, who are you people, acting so unruly, are you even human—" Lin Zhaodi, protecting her daughter-in-law who was carrying a precious burden, retreated, and seeing that her son and husband were alright, then directed her curses at the military cars at the front.
However, when she saw the first man to get out and the noble lady beside him, Lin Zhaodi retreated several large steps in shock.
She, how is she here!
Although it had been more than a decade since they last met, the other party was obviously wealthy and powerful, well-maintained, and hadn’t aged much in over a dozen years, which made Lin Zhaodi extremely envious!
Leaving aside Lin Zhaodi’s feelings, upon getting out of the car, the Yan Family people all looked fiercely at the only old woman in the yard; her age and demeanor already revealed her identity.
"Lin Zhaodi, I really want to ask you, are you even human!" Upon seeing Lin Zhaodi, the Old Devout Woman, Qi Chunlan was filled with regret!
How blind she was back then to think that they were relatives after all, and thinking of giving her some support, which then led to such a huge mistake!
"Qi, Qi Chunlan!" Lin Zhaodi was already so scared that she couldn’t speak, and only after some effort did she stammer out a few words, her voice trembling!
"You speak up, are you human or not? Huh? When I stayed at your place back then, it was only for almost a month, and I did not skimp on giving you money, and even my husband gave you quite a bit of gratitude gifts, why would you be so cruel to my daughter? So venomous?"
Qi Chunlan said this while walking towards Lin Zhaodi, her expression was extremely fierce, and those eyes which looked like gentle apricots, were now filled with pure hatred.
"I..." Lin Zhaodi had no room to retreat and was cornered against the wall of the house, seeing Qi Chunlan so close, Lin Zhaodi instantly knew, her daughter was exposed!
"Slap!" Qi Chunlan fiercely slapped her, and this sound, seemed like it unlocked the devil in Qi Chunlan’s heart—
*Slap. Slap. Slap...* A series of slaps reverberated.
"Are you even human? Ahhh—I’m gonna beat this bitch to death! I’ll kill you—you vile, inhuman woman! You grind my own daughter to the ground day and night, to make your daughter’s life better, but look at my poor girl, what have you turned her into?"
Lin Aimei had already retreated behind Zhang Dongliang, fearfully clutching her stomach as she caught Qi Chunlan’s terrifying gaze upon her mother-in-law, her face stricken with fear. Her darting eyes peeked over her husband’s shoulder, focusing quietly on the scene unfolding.
As Chen Zhenjie hurried over with her mother-in-law, they arrived just in time to hear Qi Chunlan’s out-of-control shouts.
"What’s happening here?" Zhou Dahua yelled out loud.
The men of the Zhang family were all out working in the fields at this time, leaving only the women at home. Hearing that Zhang Zhiguo had an accident, Zhou Dahua, who had already changed her opinion of him for the better, hurriedly called her daughter-in-law to help her come over.
However, Chen Zhenjie looked on with an understanding expression, noticing the two tall Rong Guards protecting the noble lady. One could see the resemblance to Zhang Shanni’s features in these Rong Guards.
Especially when they looked at you silently, the resemblance was striking!
"The ordeal’s still going on, and that noble lady keeps angrily shouting about ’your daughter, my daughter.’ I haven’t a clue what she’s on about," a village woman who had arrived earlier whispered back.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Dahua realized it wasn’t about her nephew and stopped in her tracks, assuming a demeanor of someone waiting to see what would happen next.
Zhang Zhiguo, seeing his lazy wife being abused like this, hesitated with a growing suspicion, and when the uproar became too much, he approached Yan Dongsheng, who had a dark expression on his face. Giving him a closer look, he hesitantly but uncertainly asked:
"Wait, you’re Yan Rongzhang, right?!"
After all, it had been many years, and only after hearing Qi Chunlan talk about staying for a month and sending a thank you gift did he suddenly remember. A few days after his wife gave birth to their little girl, a noble lady, a distant relative of his wife’s, happened to have an early labor and stayed in their home for nearly a month before leaving.
He remembered this incident clearly because it coincided with such an occasion, leaving an impression on him.
Even as a result of this event, his wife enjoyed the good fortune of abundant nourishment, and from that time on, her figure changed dramatically—after all, she was eating for one and feeding two babies, so no one shortchanged her on food.
"Zhang Zhiguo?" Yan Dongsheng turned his gaze to Zhang Zhiguo, and upon seeing him nod, abruptly swung a punch that sent Zhang Zhiguo flying—
*Bang!*
"Ah!" Zhang Zhiguo cried out in pain and fell backward onto the muddy ground, clutching his chin and asking loudly in agony, "Why, why did you hit me?"
Right after, he felt his jaw so agonizingly dislocated that he spat out two bloody teeth—
"Oh no!" The crowd gasped in shock.
Seeing the middle-aged military commander throw a punch after just one question frightened everyone, but fortunately, the commander restrained himself after the single punch.
"Ah! Why did you resort to violence?" Zhou Dahua exclaimed in horror, the old lady trembling as she pointed at Yan Dongsheng and shouted.
Chen Zhenjie also nervously stepped forward to check, seeing that her uncle had only swollen his chin from the punch but could still speak; he seemed to be okay.
Zhang Zhiguo had really been trying hard to turn over a new leaf these past few months, so now seeing him get innocently embroiled, both women moved forward anxiously.
