Chapter 5 Han Ailian "Caught in the Act"
"Mom, I need to go out for a bit, I just remembered something!" Tong Yuheng was furious about what Fan Eryong had done today. He messed with us on the first day, how could we not get back at him on the fifteenth!
"Big sister, you're not going to fight, are you?" The twins, Yuling and Yulong, looked eager to try.
"What are you fighting about? Go to your tutoring class with your second sister later. I'll talk to your teacher tomorrow and see if you can graduate early!"
"Huh? Why? We still have six months until graduation!"
"Ask your second sister!" Tong Yuheng replied and ran out.
Tong Yuheng thought to himself: By now, Fan Eryong's drug should have taken effect long ago, right?
She took out a pen and paper from her shoulder bag and wrote a line on it with her left hand: Section Chief Hu went to Widow Zhou's house!
She quietly tossed the note into Han Ailian's yard, then turned and ran to Widow Zhou's house.
This widow was quite an oddball in the compound; she was also a tainted romantic entanglement of her father, Tong Linsheng.
She used to hang around her dad all the time and always talked badly about her mother, saying that she couldn't give birth to a son and that no one would take care of Tong Linsheng in his old age!
Widow Zhou and Section Chief Hu did have a somewhat ambiguous relationship, and since Tong Linsheng's sacrifice, Section Chief Hu had also harbored some ill intentions towards his mother, but Tong Jiahui was very indifferent every day, so he didn't dare to provoke her.
It is true that Fan Eryong and Widow Zhou had an affair. The book also describes how, when Tong Jiahui was in poor health, Fan Eryong took her to his home for illicit relations, which was discovered by Yu Han, who beat them up.
I reckon Fan Eryong is probably at her place now. Fine, so you're all up to no good? Then rip off your fig leaves and see who's really doing the dirty work!
Less than ten minutes later, Han Ailian arrived in a flurry with those gossipy girls again. At that moment, the Zhou Widow's house was bustling with activity, and anyone outside could tell what was going on just by listening!
Han Ailian kicked the door open and found two people inside engaged in a passionate encounter. She tore them apart and realized it wasn't her husband! She immediately understood that she had been used as a pawn again!
They just abandoned her and left. They didn't care who she was with since she wasn't one of their own. They were gone!
Tong Yuheng was hiding behind the house waiting to see what would happen, but when he found that nothing serious had happened, he was a little disappointed.
Han Ailian felt it was none of her business and naturally didn't want to cause trouble. The others, seeing that it was Fan Eryong, were afraid that his brother would make things difficult for them later, so they also didn't want to cause trouble and left!
Section Chief Hu was also unlucky. He had a fight with his wife, went to his office, and felt stifled after a while. So he went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some food, intending to go to Widow Zhou's place to complain.
He had just arrived when his wife came out from inside, and the two bumped into each other!
Han Ailian got angry as soon as she saw what he was holding. She snatched the item from him and shoved it into his hand. Then she ran into the house and dragged Widow Zhou out by the hair!
The shrew was crying and cursing like a madwoman. Soon, the neighbors who had heard the commotion came running to see what was going on!
Fan Eryong and Widow Zhou are still disheveled, and everyone is wondering what Han Ailian is up to.
Section Chief Hu grabbed his wife and whispered in her ear, "I heard you came here, so I came to find you. What's wrong with you? Do you want me to be paraded through the streets wearing a dunce cap?! Do you want me to lose my job?"
Han Ailian realized what was going on. She had caught them in the act, and besides, her family was counting on Lao Hu's salary to help their son get married. If she wanted to make a scene, she should do it at home!
Widow Zhou and Old Hu definitely have an affair, but we still have to deal with this vixen in private!
"I misjudged her. I was afraid this slut would seduce my husband, but who knew she was with Fan Eryong? You two are both single, why don't you just get married and live together!"
After saying that, she patted her bottom, grabbed her husband, and ran away, not forgetting to take the food that Lao Hu had bought.
Tong Yuheng laughed in the crowd. This was quite a juicy story. She'd see if the two of them would get married to quell the commotion. As for the Hu family couple, whether they would fight when they got home was even less of her concern!
He touched the back of his head, which still hurt a little. He thought to himself: Isn't the point of transmigrating to have a cheat ability? Didn't the female lead take her cheat ability from me?
Where is that jade? It was given to her by her great-grandmother on her deathbed; it was said to be a family heirloom passed down to the eldest daughter of the Tong family.
Great-grandmother didn't have a daughter, so this should have been given to her mother. Her mother would have to give it to her later, so the old lady simply gave it to her directly.
Her great-grandmother passed away when she was five years old, and her maternal grandmother spent most of her time helping her mother take care of her granddaughters. However, her maternal grandmother fell seriously ill a few years later and passed away not long after, thus avoiding the criticism and struggle sessions and the harrowing house raids and exiles of those years.
This jade pendant is a spatial artifact that can store things. In the original book, it is described as having a space of several tens of square meters in size, capable of storing and retrieving supplies. The female protagonist used it to buy and sell, which made her a lot of money.
The female protagonist often uses her spatial ability to steal other people's things and then profit from them. Of course, the book rationalizes all the reasons she steals.
Upon realizing this, Tong Yuheng immediately ran home and searched through her drawers, but after a long time, she still couldn't find the jade pendant! She asked her younger sisters, but they also said they hadn't seen it.
"Sister, are you talking about the jade pendant that Great-Grandma gave us?" Yu Yao asked.
"Yes, where have you seen me before?"
"I saw Fan Yaqing peek out from under her clothes when she bent over, but she quickly hid it again. I wasn't too sure!"
"That's because she took it. She always comes to our house for no reason, taking little things from my drawer. Nobody would notice!"
"I never expected she was a thief! I'm going to give her a piece of my mind tomorrow!" Yu Yao was furious!
The sisters didn't like Fan Yaqing, but she was like a persistent leech, always wanting to hang out with them.
"Could it be that Fan Dayong saw this jade pendant and that's why he guessed that our family has some treasures hidden away?" Tong Yuheng suddenly thought.
That jade pendant was carved from the finest jade, and it will be very valuable decades from now!
So that's how it is! Fan Yaqing always coming to her house to get close to her, it must have been her father who made her do it, right?
It's not the theft itself that's worrisome, but the thief's eye on it. It seems they really need to leave as soon as possible. But before they leave, she must retrieve her jade pendant!
Back home, Tong Yuheng wasn't in a good mood. Tong Jiahui thought her head injury was serious and wanted to take her to the hospital to get it checked out. In the end, she couldn't refuse and went to the hospital anyway.
After examining her, the doctor asked a series of questions. Seeing that she didn't have any dizziness or nausea, he gave her some medicine to apply to the broken area and then sent them home.
"I told you it's nothing, Mom, you don't need to worry too much. I was just careless, otherwise they wouldn't have been able to beat me."
The original owner had learned some martial arts from her father, but it was far inferior to the skills of this special forces soldier.
