Quick Wear: Cannon fodder fly bravely, good fortune will always follow

Chapter 299 The Female Cannon Fodder Who Falsely Claims Favors in the Historical Literature 40

But everyone was still wondering why they had to bring Zhao Xue into this for no reason. It seemed like there must be a reason behind this.

Zhao Xue gave a more reasonable explanation for this matter.

The four scoundrels were idle all day long. One day, they found some good wine and drank together on a hillside. In the end, everyone got drunk and lost their minds, talking nonsense. Zhao Xue happened to pass by there and heard the truth about the tragic case of an educated youth jumping into the river.

When Zhao Xue first came to the educated youth site, a female educated youth had indeed committed suicide by jumping into a river in a nearby village.

That incident caused a lot of uproar at the time. One reason was that the female educated youth was very beautiful, which was the most disliked color by the women in the village. As soon as she came to the village, many young men in the village were courteous to her and fell in love with her.

When people from the surrounding villages knew about this, they all treated it as a rare event and flocked to the village, hoping to catch a glimpse of the beauty, so they paid more attention to the female educated youth.

The second reason was that it was a critical time to encourage educated youth to go to the countryside, and this was the first time such a major murder case occurred in the town.

At that time, the police investigated for a long time, and the village cadres in that village and a group of cadres in the town were dismissed, but they could not find any problems for a long time. They just thought that the female educated youth could not stand the hardship of farm work and jumped into the river on her own.

After that, the matter was dropped.

Zhao Xue happened to hear about this and was unfortunately discovered. The four men began to threaten her, but since they could not find a foolproof way to get away at the moment, they just kept an eye on her and did not allow her to leave the village.

Unexpectedly, before they could come up with a foolproof plan, they were caught red-handed and took the opportunity to get rid of Zhao Xue.

Zhao Xue spoke with a sad look on her face, seeming to have suffered great psychological harm.

The public security personnel were all shocked when they heard this, as the incident at that time was indeed a huge sensation.

It happened that the higher-ups were sending people to conduct an undercover investigation at the time, and after this incident, several leading cadres were demoted or dismissed.

After hearing what Zhao Xue said, the staff of the institute immediately dispatched most of their personnel and began to thoroughly investigate the incident, causing several villages to vaguely realize something was going on.

Zhao Xue knew that this incident was not something she encountered by chance, but something she learned about from the original plot, so she knew more details than ordinary people. She pointed out a few points without making a sound, and the public security personnel did find some clues.

But this alone was not enough to close the case, so the institute directly applied for special personnel assistance from the county and city.

Under the interrogation of special personnel sent by their superiors, Li Peng and his four companions confessed all their crimes without any reservation.

In addition to the case of raping a female educated youth and causing her to jump into the river, the four men also tricked a child from a village into the river and drowned him. This is not to mention the fighting, molesting women, and stealing that they did on a daily basis.

The four men wrote dozens of testimonies about the evil they had done, and even these public servants hated them very much.

The truth came out, and several people directly decided to eat peanuts.

During this time, Li Peng and the other three also explained all the hooliganism they had done, including how Zhao Xue used the evidence of the female educated youth who jumped into the river to threaten them to harm Fang Ruoyao, and how Jiang Yueshu and others had cheated them of their money and given them several injections, causing them to itch all over their bodies.

The public security personnel were skeptical about these testimonies.

After all, these people are bad to the core, and what they say is too outrageous.

But the interrogation ability of that special person was there, so the public security personnel had to split up into several groups and conducted another round of investigation on the people involved in the case. At the same time, they also found doctors to examine the bodies of several people.

Unexpectedly, after the doctor's examination, he found nothing wrong with the four people's bodies.

I consulted several famous doctors, but the results were still the same.

In addition to Zhao Xuepan's claim that the four people were mentally ill, the professional interrogators have indeed encountered some people with poor psychological qualities who broke down and lost their defenses, leading to mental disorders.

Although they felt that it was somewhat unlikely, it did not make sense to simply say that they were harmed by acupuncture, so the public security personnel still somewhat agreed with it.

In addition, Lu Jianjun had just returned from the army and went to the police station to act as a bail, so Zhao Xue was released.

The police station investigated for a few more days and ultimately determined that the behavior of Li Peng and four others was mentally ill, and then closed the case.

Jiang Yueshu didn't expect that the few injections she was going to give to torture the four people would actually invisibly clear Zhao Xue's suspicion, but it was a good thing that she didn't get herself involved.

It seems that Zhao Xue must have known about this and used this as an excuse to threaten the four people to ruin her and Fang Ruoyao's reputation.

After Fang Ruoyao knew the whole story, she cursed Li Peng and others.

Fortunately, they caught him this time, otherwise, if such a cancer continues to exist, it might harm more people in the future!

The impact of this incident was extremely bad. Since then, public security personnel have stepped up supervision on various illegal and criminal incidents in various places. Many typical cases were arrested at one time. Many small gangsters felt insecure and no longer dared to do bad things.

-

Li Peng's mother didn't know about this. As soon as she returned home after seven days of detention, she learned from her family that her son was gone. She fainted as if struck by a bolt from the blue.

When she wakes up, she is ready to seek justice for her son.

But she had been detained in the police station for so many days that she did not dare to cause trouble for the public security personnel, fearing that she would also be arrested and eaten peanuts, so she targeted the culprit, Zhao Xue.

She didn't care about the villagers' cold eyes, ridicule and rejection at all. She always ran to the Lu family to cause trouble every day. She lay in front of the Lu family's door all day long and refused to leave, which made the Lu family very angry.

The others, however, watched the scene become more and more lively. Seeing how happy everyone was, they began to feel a little suspicious of Zhao Xue.

Lu's mother often secretly wiped her tears in the house and began to regret why she had agreed to let Lu Jianjun marry Zhao Xue.

Zhao Xue was extremely annoyed and was just about to find someone to call the police, but Li Peng's mother ran away.

When she relaxed, Li Peng's mother went over to make trouble again. When she saw people running towards the town, she immediately ran back home.

It was not until the Lu family could no longer bear it that they hired the police to stake out the place, and only then did they catch Li Peng's mother in the act.

After receiving a round of criticism and education, Li Peng's mother didn't dare to come here again. She just occasionally said a few bad things in front of people without mentioning anyone's name, and sometimes she just stared at Zhao Xue neurotically without saying a word.

After being taken home by Lu Jianjun, Zhao Xue was frightened for a night and then returned to normal.

Thinking about accompanying the army, she saw that Lu Jianjun didn't say anything, so she thought about it for a few days and then asked about it. As a result, she got the news that Lu Jianjun was demoted.

"What did you say?!" Zhao Xue exclaimed in disbelief.

Lu Jianjun stroked his frowning brows and repeated, "I said, you can't go with the army. I've been demoted one level."

"What happened to you? Why were you demoted? Hasn't your body recovered?"

"Didn't you say before that you would definitely get a promotion once you recovered? Did you do something?!"

Zhao Xue looked suspicious and yelled hysterically.

Lu Jianjun remained silent, only feeling the extremely noisy sound in his ears.

Zhao Xue became even angrier because of Lu Jianjun's silence. She yelled, "Why don't you speak? I'm asking you. Come on!"

Lu Jianjun was stimulated by Zhao Xue's madness. He couldn't hold it back any longer. His eyes turned red as he spoke word by word.

"I didn't say it because I wanted to save your face!"

"Since you don't mind, I'll just say it directly."

"It's all because of you that I was demoted! Because you're always looking for trouble, making up stories about others, and you can never control your mouth. You're always slacking off at work, and you're always asking for leave. Go out and ask around, what's your reputation like now? Do you still think you're a progressive young man? You're living a life of luxury, and you're always asking mom for money? Do you really think you're a young lady?"

Zhao Xue was stunned. "What does that have to do with you? I did my best. What does it have to do with your demotion?"

Lu Jianjun sneered.

"What kind of relationship? What kind of relationship do you say? Husband and wife are one. I am with you. How can I be good if your reputation is ruined? Others will only think that I have the same ideas as you, so I just let it go. Do I have to lock you in the room and gag you?"

"Now you know, it was you who caused so many things. The observers came down to investigate and found out everything, so you were demoted."

"Before I went to the police station to look for you, I was still in my original position. When I went to bail you out, I was demoted to a lower rank."

Zhao Xue opened her eyes wide and tears streamed down her face, as if she had suffered a huge blow.

Lu Jianjun had been holding it in for too long and couldn't help but speak out.

"Follow the army, follow the army, follow the army. All you think about all day is following the army! So, Zhao Xue, the reason you married me in the first place was not because you liked me, but just to follow the army! You encouraged me to rejoin the army, wasn't it because you were looking forward to following the army? Are you satisfied now? Is it all in vain?"

If she hadn't mentioned joining the army repeatedly, Lu Jianjun wouldn't have noticed.

Perhaps Zhao Xue's idea is not wrong. People go to high places and water flows to low places. It is normal.

But Zhao Xue was too hypocritical. She had to use the name of love to cover up her greed. What he thought was mutual affection was just deliberate on the other side.

He liked her, so he chose to be patient, but she kept pushing her too far, which made him feel bored.

Hearing this, Zhao Xue, who was originally stunned, had her eyes flickering and shook her head subconsciously, "No, no, Jianjun, I love you, otherwise I wouldn't have saved you! But I have to think about our little family. I don't want our future children to not be able to see you, and I don't want to be separated from you forever. Am I wrong?!"

Lu Jianjun looked at her seriously, without saying anything in rebuttal, but he was not fooled by Zhao Xue either.

She and her child didn't want to be separated from him, so why did she have to join the army?

If the whole family stays near the village, won’t they be able to be with me too?

But Lu Jianjun no longer wanted to argue with Zhao Xue. You could never explain something clearly to someone who asks questions even though he already knows the answer.

Yes, she saved him, so it was natural for him to marry her, and it was also necessary for him to shoulder the responsibilities of a husband.

Although this is the truth, Lu Jianjun's heart still couldn't stop sinking. He couldn't tell what he felt, disappointment, regret, heartache, irritability or sadness?

As sweet as my heart was before because of this false love, it is as bitter now.

Lu Jianjun closed his eyes and forced himself to get rid of those unnecessary emotions. When he opened his eyes again, his eyes were clear.

"Since it's already a done deal, stop making a fuss and live your life in peace from now on. I've returned to the team as you said, and you should accept your current life!"

Lu Jianjun said this indifferently and went to help Lu's mother with work. He has now returned to the team and will leave tomorrow.

No matter how unhappy Zhao Xue was, Lu Jianjun finally returned to the team.

At the dinner table, Zhao Xue frowned, thinking about something, and didn't notice that the expressions of the other members of the Lu family had changed when they looked at her.

"Let's go to work together after dinner!" Mother Lu said coldly.

When Zhao Xue saw Lu's mother looking at her, she realized that she was talking to her and her face immediately fell.

Mother Lu, however, did not spoil her like she used to. "I'm talking about you. The money in our family didn't come from the wind. If you don't do anything, forget about eating!"

Zhao Xue was so angry that she stubbornly refused to go to work.

Unexpectedly, Lu's mother really didn't cook for her that day, and Zhao Xue didn't eat for the whole day.

Although she still had some money on her, it was all she had and the more she spent, the less she had, so she was reluctant to spend it.

After enduring for a day, Zhao Xue couldn't bear it any longer, so the next day she pretended to lie down at the doorstep, wailing that she was starving to death.

Mother Lu did not swallow her anger and be controlled by her as she had done in the past. Instead, she cried and expressed her grievances.

She said that since Zhao Xue came into the family, she had been out working for no more than ten days at most, and had not done any housework, leaving it all to her younger brothers and sisters. Even her underwear had to be washed by Lu's younger sister.

Zhao Xue didn't expect that Lu's mother would be so disrespectful to her. Her face turned red with embarrassment. Amid the mocking looks and pointing fingers of the villagers, she fled to the inner room and hid.

After everyone had left, Zhao Xue came out and argued with Lu's mother.

She thought that the Lu family was now supported by her husband, and the money in the family was earned by him alone. No matter how much money Lu Jianjun spent on the family, it would be a big deal if she did less work.

Mother Lu felt a chill in her heart as she watched her look so self-righteous. She was already annoyed by her previous trouble-making, and now after hearing such outrageous words, she felt even more remorseful.

"You are so good, Zhao Xue. I was so blind to let Jianjun marry a troublemaker like you. Any girl in the village is better than a freeloader like you who loves to stir up trouble!"

It is natural to respect parents and care for siblings. In the early years, Lu Jianjun's qualification to join the army was obtained by him and his wife, who had to shamelessly ask the Cheng family. They gave birth to him and raised him, but they didn't intend to abandon the whole family after he got married and got promoted.

Even the Lu family's younger siblings cast resentful glances at Zhao Xue. They now hated their eldest brother's new sister-in-law to the extreme.
