Chapter 966 234 The truth of the matter emerges like stones

Chapter 966: 234: The truth of the matter emerges, like stones revealed as the water recedes. Chapter 966: 234: The truth of the matter emerges, like stones revealed as the water recedes. Liu Qi didn’t fight back, and a red, swollen handprint appeared on his left cheek instantly.

But the look in his eyes when he turned to Jiu Wentang was terrifyingly cold.

Liu Ru covered her mouth, watching the scene in disbelief.

She hadn’t expected Jiu Wentang to hit Liu Qi.

All her life, she had never seen Jiu Wentang raise a hand against Liu Qi.

In delivering that slap, Jiu Wentang regretted it herself, “Son, Xiaoqi, I’m sorry! Mom didn’t mean it! I just really want to go back! I didn’t mean to leave your father.”

Her son was born after ten months of pregnancy; how could she not feel pain for him?

She was just too anxious.

Liu Qi didn’t want to help her, she couldn’t return to Taiwan Island, and only Taiwan Island could give her a sense of safety.

“Xiaoqi, can you forgive Mom, please?” Jiu Wentang hugged Liu Qi, tears streaming down her face.

Liu Qi’s face showed no emotion, “You just got back from the detention center, go upstairs and take a bath, then get a good night’s sleep.”

He didn’t blame Jiu Wentang for slapping him, but he couldn’t forgive her actions.

But Jiu Wentang was his biological mother.

He didn’t know what to do.

It seemed whatever he did was wrong.

Every choice seemed to be a mistake…

Jiu Wentang nodded, “Okay.”

Liu Ru silently followed Jiu Wentang upstairs.

After a hot shower, Jiu Wentang’s condition had improved a lot.

Meanwhile, in Jinghua Village.

The affairs of Zhao Shuyue had stirred up a storm — after so many years, everyone had just learned that Zhao Shuyue’s real name wasn’t Liu Zhao; she had her own name.

Everyone fiercely criticized Liu Qinian and Jiu Wentang for being inhumane.

Because Zhao Shuyue encountered an issue at home alone, Ni Yang once again offered to take Zhao Shuyue into the Ni Family home.

But Zhao Shuyue still refused.

Zhao Shuyue wasn’t willing to move, and Ni Yang didn’t want to force her, so she brought Zhao Shuyue a two-month-old puppy.

The puppy was a Chinese Rural Dog.

Chinese Rural Dogs were among the smartest and most loyal, easiest to raise dogs.

Despite being only two months old, it was plump and fiercely protective, very protective of its owner.

Zhao Shuyue’s house already had Dapang, so the puppy was named Xiaopang.

Ni Cuihua, after handling the matters at the Factory, sat on the sofa and chatted with everyone, “Yangyang, what ultimately happened with the case of Liu Qinian and Jiu Wentang?”

Ni Yang flipped a page of the newspaper she was holding, “Jiu Wentang and her daughter Liu Ru have been released on bail, while Liu Qinian was sentenced to life imprisonment.”

Old Lady Zheng chimed in, “It looks like Liu Qinian will die in prison, but how could Jiu Wentang have been released on bail? She was clearly in cahoots with Liu Qinian. Even if she wasn’t the mastermind, she must have been an accomplice!”

This involved robbery and attempted murder! How could she be released?

Ni Yang explained, “Because Liu Qinian took all the blame himself, and only his fingerprints were found at Grandma Zhao’s house, the police had no choice but to release her. Though Jiu Wentang has been released on bail, she still hasn’t been cleared of suspicion and is not allowed to travel freely.”

The situation was twofold: while Liu Qinian wasn’t a good husband to Zhao Shuyue, he was an invaluable husband and father to Jiu Wentang.

Such a person was both pitiable and detestable.

Old Lady Zheng nodded, “I see, I didn’t expect Liu Qinian to have such resolve.”

Ni Cuihua frowned slightly, “I always feel like I’ve seen Jiu Wentang somewhere before. Yangyang, do you know where she’s from?”

It was the first time Ni Cuihua had mentioned this, so Ni Yang quickly put down the newspaper, “About that, I once indirectly asked Liu Qi; he said Jiu Wentang is from Xiaomu Village in Haicheng City.”

“Xiaomu Village?” Ni Cuihua was startled since she had grown up in Xiaomu Village.

Ni Yang nodded.

Ni Cuihua frowned again, “Xiaomu Village only has around twenty households. If she really is from Xiaomu Village, there’s no way I wouldn’t have heard about her, plus we don’t have the Jii surname in Xiaomu Village.”

Most in the Xiaomu Village were surnamed Zhu and Ni.

Ni Yang added, “I also think it’s strange. If Jiu Wentang really was from Xiaomu Village, she couldn’t possibly be unaware of Dam Village, but when Liu Qi asked her if she knew about Dam Village, she claimed she didn’t remember.”

Xiaomu Village and Dam Village are adjacent; if Jiu Wentang truly came from Xiaomu Village, she couldn’t possibly be unaware of Dam Village.

But if Jiu Wentang wasn’t from Xiaomu Village, then how did she know about it? And why did Ni Cuihua find her so familiar?
