Husband's Funeral: The Secretary and the Inheritance
墨書 Inktalez
My husband went on a trip with the Secretary, weighing 120 pounds when he left, but returned in a box weighing only 5 pounds. When the traffic police notified me to identify the body, I refused. "This isn't my husband; my husband wasn't this flat!" It wasn't until the police released the DNA report that I tearfully accepted the body for cremation.
At the funeral, the Secretary showed up with the son she had with my husband, pressuring me to remove myself from the household registration. My mother-in-law also said that I wouldn't receive a single cent of the inheritance, calling me a useless chicken that doesn't lay eggs. I weakly gathered my dowry and left.
It was laughable; that deadbeat husband had such a high debt—whoever wants to inherit can go ahead. I decided to return to my wealthy family and take it easy!

"Are you a relative of Su Nan? This is the City Third Traffic Police Brigade. Mr. Su Nan has died in a car accident; please come quickly to identify the body."
The phone slipped from my hand and hit the floor with a thud. My pupils shook in disbelief at what I had just heard. Could this be true?
I wanted to pick up my phone, but my fingers trembled with excitement, and it took several tries before I managed to grab it. I snatched my bag without even putting on a coat and hurried to the hospital.
As soon as I arrived at the morgue, Officer Zhang approached me with a heavy expression and shook his head. "Please accept my condolences; the deceased's appearance may be... you should prepare yourself."
Tears streamed down my face as I crouched on the ground, burying my face in my hands, terrified that Officer Zhang would see me crying tears of joy.
Under Officer Zhang's questioning, I answered honestly: "My husband said he was going on a business trip and would bring me gifts when he returned. How could he...?" After hearing this, Officer Zhang's expression seemed hesitant, as if he wanted to say something but held back.
I understood; he wanted to tell me that my husband was actually on vacation with the Secretary, not on a business trip at all.
The two of them ended up in a car accident because they had stopped on the highway.
Watching the surveillance footage, the shaking of that car was nothing short of intense. Unfortunately, after the incident, Secretary took the child out to relieve himself and narrowly escaped being swept away by the chaos.
I took several deep breaths, finally managing to calm down, my voice thick with nasal congestion: "Can I... can I go see him?"
The Officer nodded and personally led me to the Morgue.
Inside the Morgue, the lighting was dim. I trembled as I pulled down the white cloth, and then my legs gave way; I collapsed to the floor and cried out loud.
My Sister-in-law rushed over, supporting my mother-in-law. My eyes lit up as I ran over and grabbed my mother-in-law's hand, beginning to wail.
"Mom, that's not your son inside! Your son isn't that flat!! Wuwuwu—"
Hearing this, my mother-in-law's eyes went dark, and she nearly fainted. My Sister-in-law immediately screamed and started cursing:
"Song Nian, you jinx! What nonsense are you talking about! Ever since my brother married you, he hasn't encountered a single good thing. My mom was so angered by you that she had a stroke and still hasn't recovered. Now my brother is dead because of you!"
I couldn't help but retort in my heart. The old lady wanted to sleep in our room at night under the pretense of supervision. When I disagreed, she threw a tantrum on the floor until she rolled down the stairs and had a stroke—what did that have to do with me?
But my Sister-in-law continued.
"You evil woman, an old hen that can't even lay an egg! My brother is so unfortunate; he doesn't even have a son or daughter. Our Su Family is doomed because of you! Why don't you just die!"
She grew more agitated as she spoke, lunging at me before being stopped by the Officer.
"What are you doing! The one who died is her husband; she's more heartbroken than any of you!"
Taking advantage of the moment, the Officer helped me out, leaving my mother-in-law and Sister-in-law inside to wail loudly, their voices penetrating through the heavy iron door to reach my ears.
"My son, why are you so unfortunate! It's all that jinx's fault; otherwise, you wouldn't have ended up like this!"
"Mom! I've told you many times she's a husband-killing jinx; you just wouldn't believe it! Now look what happened—my brother lost his life!"
In the next moment, the iron door swung open.
My mother-in-law, with her left hand raised to six and her right hand to seven, hobbled towards me, her back hunched over.
"You jinx! I'll kill you!"
My sister-in-law followed closely behind, both of them glaring at me with fiery eyes, ready to pounce. They knew full well that Su Nan had gotten into trouble because he went on a trip with another woman, yet they still placed all the blame on me.
Unfortunately for them, I was protected by the Police Officer behind me, and they couldn't even lay a finger on me. In the end, they were detained for three days for assaulting an officer.
The day after my mother-in-law and sister-in-law were taken to the detention center, I received news that the Secretary had been discharged from the hospital.
Thinking about how my worthless husband had a child with that Secretary made my blood boil. I quickly arranged for his body to be cremated!
