"If you dare to dig up that grave, I'll bury you alive right next to it!"
My father’s eyes were bloodshot. "If you don’t believe me, go ahead and try!"
Wang Shuqin was Auntie's nemesis.
When she visited Auntie in prison, Auntie was rambling on and on.
Wang Shuqin sat to the side, leisurely applying nail polish from her bag.
"Sister, are you thirsty? Let me get you a bottle of water."
Auntie was so furious she nearly toppled over.
"Zhiwen's Wife! Don’t push your luck!"
Wang Shuqin blew on her nails. "Oh, how could I dare?"
"The world is vast, but life is the most important."
"If you're feeling down, how about I take you to see a doctor?"
Auntie trembled with rage.
"If it weren't for your two ungrateful daughters, we wouldn't have ended up like this!"
"We never intended to do anything to you in the first place!"
"It’s you who don’t know what’s good for you!"
Wang Shuqin smirked. "So, you were being kind?"
"Kind enough to introduce my daughter to someone?"
Auntie nodded heavily. "Of course it was out of kindness!"
Bang!
Wang Shuqin slapped her across the face.
"Your so-called kindness won't lead to a good end!"
"You have no right to dictate my daughter’s life."
"You worthless piece of trash, behave yourself!"
Auntie was stunned by the slap.
She screamed and recoiled.
"You... you..."
Wang Shuqin sneered, "From today on, the power of life and death over the two cousins is in my hands."
"Their fate is mine to decide."
With that, she stood up and left.
Only Auntie's terrified wails remained.
In fact, long before she was captured, Wang Shuqin had secretly sent living expenses to the two cousins.
She even bought them tickets to their work city.
And she told them to fend for themselves and not to contact Uncle or Auntie anymore.
Wang Shuqin did this to protect her daughters.
She didn't want them to suffer any more harm.
It was also a way to frustrate Uncle and Auntie.
To keep them on edge in prison.
My dad took his last puff of smoke.
The gloom of the past few days lifted completely.
He seemed much more spirited.
"Tomorrow, we’ll return to our hometown once more."
Early the next morning, my dad took us back to the Village Party Secretary's house.
Because of the previous incident, he faced quite a bit of trouble.
We had discussed this in advance.
This time, we came to apologize to the Village Party Secretary.
“Old Chen, you... sigh.”
The Village Party Secretary, after hearing the whole story, couldn't help but lament about human greed.
“Isn't it just because of greed?”
“Looking for trouble when there was none.”
My dad nodded, “I didn’t think it through.”
“Don’t worry about Xiu Lu; I will definitely keep my promise.”
“I’ll cover the costs; the village doesn’t need to spend a penny.”
The Village Party Secretary perked up.
The previous unpleasantness was cast aside.
He immediately got up and called someone over to finalize the matter.
My mom took us to Aunt Peng's house.
The gifts were generous.
We wanted to thank her for her support when we were back in our hometown.
Aunt Peng received the gifts with a smile.
“The Old Chen family is finally back on track.”
“Don’t worry, if you need any help in the future, just come to me.”
Choosing an auspicious day, my dad relocated my grandparents' graves.
He selected two prime burial plots in the city for them to rest.
My mom had quite a few complaints about it.
"You say it pretty harshly."
"But in reality?"
My dad defended himself, "It's not the same."
"I was just trying to put on a show of strength, not really risking my life for that scumbag."
"I'm not stupid."
My mom shot him a glance, "Who knows?"
The verdict for Uncle's family was announced in the spring.
Chen Dazhuang was sentenced to three years, while Uncle and Auntie each received one year.
This sentence wasn't particularly severe.
However, they would likely find life difficult from now on.
After all, in our hometown, people who come out of prison usually can't hold their heads high.
And the two cousins had already left home.
Only the idle Chen Dazhuang remained.
I hope he lives a long life.
He should earn some money for his son.
