Cheng Wenyu had completely given up on his father now.
Only now did he realize that in Cheng Tianhua's heart, being stabbed was nothing.
As long as it paved the way for his promotion and wealth, being stabbed was worth it.
Cheng Tianhua was disgraced and ran away dejectedly.
Returning home, he kept cursing.
"Two beasts, I raised them for nothing!"
Song Yulian quickly poured him a glass of water, "Alright, alright, don't be angry."
Cheng Tianhua sneered and put the cup down heavily, splashing water.
"If I had known this would happen, it would have been better to strangle them when they were born!"
Song Yulian sadly touched her belly.
They had agreed to have another child, but her stomach remained stubbornly quiet.
She was no longer as fertile as she was when she was younger, when getting pregnant was effortless.
"What about Qian Dazhi's matter, is it just going to be like this?"
Vice Director Qian had come and gone several times, using both threats and temptations.
Cheng Tianhua wanted to cooperate, but the problem was that Cheng You didn't listen to him at all.
"If Cheng You doesn't relent, Qian Dazhi is definitely going to jail."
Let alone Qian Dazhi, even Wen Jiahao was doomed.
Song Yulian was now only worried that Cheng You's actions would offend Vice Director Qian.
"We have to consider the people around us. Yunlin's family is related to Vice Director Qian. If this relationship sours, will it affect Yunlin's work?"
Cheng Tao was already miserable enough. If Zhao Yunlin lost his job too, what would they do?
Cheng Tianhua was also worried about this, but he was truly powerless.
After a long period of thought, he finally spoke with a grim expression, "Didn't you contact people from Old Yang's family a few days ago?"
Song Yulian's face changed slightly. She had actually done this behind Cheng Tianhua's back.
She hadn't expected him to know.
After all, they were family of her ex-husband, and she felt awkward talking about it with Cheng Tianhua.
"Yes, Yang Yunian is a director in the Health Bureau. I was hoping he could help Cheng Tao apply for a plot of land in the commune to build a house."
Cheng Tianhua grunted with a dark expression, "Any news?"
"Not yet, but he didn't refuse, so he should have agreed."
If not for her sake, it should have been for Cheng Tao's sake.
"Why don't you go find him again and see if he can help with this matter?"
Preferably, he could get Qian Dazhi out.
Song Yulian felt ashamed. After all, the Yang family knew about her affair. Their gazes always held some disdain.
It had been her limit to shamelessly ask for his help last time.
"Let's see. He hasn't been sentenced yet. Maybe Vice Director Qian has a way."
In the following days, the Old Zhao family was in chaos.
One was about Qian Dazhi's arrest, and the other was about Zhao Lifang's divorce.
Zhao Lifang even came to find Cheng You once to inform her about Qian Dazhi's situation.
"He'll be sentenced to at least five years. Qian Dingzhong is helpless and has almost given up on his son."
Zhao Lifang sighed with relief, it was truly satisfying.
Scum like him should be punished.
Cheng You glanced at her, truly carefree.
"What about Wen Jiahao?" she asked casually.
Hearing this, Zhenzhen looked over.
Zhao Lifang hummed, "I'm not sure. He's an accomplice, so he'll probably get one or two years too."
Either way, they were going in.
Zhenzhen puffed out her cheeks and lowered her head.
She felt a little bad, and hearing this news actually made her a little happy.
But she didn't dare to show it, fearing that Cheng You would dislike her.
Cheng You suddenly looked at Zhenzhen. Counting it, she was now the only grandchild in the Wen family.
If Wen Jiahao couldn't have children and was going to jail, would those people in the Wen family try to take advantage of her?
If you really count, the Wen family and Zhenzhen were closer than outsiders like them.
"Sister, why are you looking at me?" Zhenzhen raised her head and asked.
Cheng You smiled, "Nothing, just keep reading."
Zhenzhen said "oh" and lowered her head again.
Cheng You thought, it would be great if she could arrange legal adoption procedures for Uncle Li and Zhenzhen.
This way, the Wen family wouldn't be able to snatch her away.
Zhao Lifang finished her sunflower seeds and clapped her hands.
"Alright, I'm leaving."
She had been staying in Wujing Village these past few days.
Just seeing Wang Hongxia's disgusted expression made her feel happy.
As soon as Zhao Lifang walked out of Uncle Li's house, she soon encountered Yang Yunian.
"Girl, where does Li Yongdong, the barefoot doctor in your village, live?"
Zhao Lifang pointed in the direction she came from, "It's over there, where the smell of medicinal herbs is strong."
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard Cheng Tao's voice: "Uncle!"
She followed the sound and thought, when did Cheng Tao have such an uncle?
Cheng Tao ran over breathlessly, ignoring Zhao Lifang, with obvious excitement and joy on her face.
"Uncle, are you here to see me?"
Yang Yunian hesitated, "I..."
"Cheng Tao, is he your uncle? Where did you get an uncle?"
Cheng Tao smiled smugly, wishing she could shout for everyone to hear, "This is my biological uncle. He's a director at the County Health Bureau. It's normal you don't know him, after all, my uncle's status isn't someone ordinary people can meet."
Zhao Lifang had been showing off to her these past few days. This time, it was finally her turn.
"Oh, from Old Yang's family? Look at me, if you hadn't reminded me, I wouldn't have remembered you used to be surnamed Yang. After all, Cheng You's father doted on you more than his own daughter." Zhao Lifang said sarcastically.
Yang Yunian had no mood to listen to the girls bickering here. He intended to leave, but found Cheng Tao clutching his arm.
As if truly afraid he would leave like this.
"Uncle, you came to see me, did you get the matter done?"
Zhao Lifang gossiped, "Cheng Tao, what did you ask your uncle to do?"
"To apply for a plot of land in the commune, wasn't that what you were always complaining about, that we sold you to get that land? Now open your eyes and see, without you Zhao Lifang, I can still build a house in the commune."
Zhao Lifang scoffed and rolled her eyes, "Do you have the money?"
Cheng Tao's face stiffened. That wasn't important, she could borrow from Yang Yunian later.
"Uncle, listen to her. You'll definitely help me build the house, right?"
Yang Yunian looked at Cheng Tao coldly. This face bore no resemblance to Yang Er at all.
He also had daughters, and daughters resembled their fathers more.
He couldn't help but think of his sister's words: Cheng Tao wasn't Yang Er's child at all.
This was also why, after Song Yulian remarried Cheng Tianhua, Cheng Tao eagerly changed her surname!
Or, was she Cheng Tianhua's daughter?
This realization shocked him, stirring up a tempest in his heart.
If this were true, then how many years had the second brother been a cuckold?
He coldly pushed Cheng Tao's hand away, "I didn't come to see you."
