Chapter 228: Chapter 228: Do You Know What It Means to Marry into a Family?

Seeing the smile on the woman’s face, Yu Guoqiang immediately felt a sense of foreboding.

“What are you laughing at?”

Lin Xiaohong countered without answering, “How long will you be locked up?”

Yu Guoqiang looked down disheveled, “They said if I can compensate Yue Jiandong for his losses and obtain his forgiveness, I might avoid prison.”

“What about your money?”

Speaking of this, Yu Guoqiang became exceedingly angry, “It was all taken by that woman. She had promised well before to return the money afterward to bail me out, but now she’s nowhere to be seen, definitely ran off with the money.”

Yu Guoqiang now realized Xiuxiu was nothing but a greedy tramp.

All the money he’d embezzled had practically gone to her.

The good stuff Yue Jiandong gave didn’t even make it to his house; it was all at Xiuxiu’s place.

If it wasn’t for him, Yu Guoqiang wouldn’t have become increasingly bold, embezzling more and more.

Which led to Yue Jiandong discovering the issue quickly.

But now that trouble had arisen, Xiuxiu had disappeared, and Yu Guoqiang regretted his past actions.

He begged Lin Xiaohong, “I know I did a damnable thing, but we are after all husband and wife. Please, help me gather some money from home to pay him back, and let’s talk after I get out.”

Lin Xiaohong’s face still held that mysterious smile, “Don’t worry, I’ll definitely pay the money back, Brother Yue asked me to take your position, I’ll repay him with my salary.”

Yu Guoqiang’s mouth fell open, and after a moment his face lit up with joy.

“Yue Jiandong is really so kind? That’s good… then I can get out soon. Anyway, whether you earn or I earn, it’s all the same since we’re husband and wife.”

Lin Xiaohong, watching his shifting eyes, knew Yu Guoqiang had other plans in mind.

She sneered coldly, “Don’t even think about it. I’ll definitely pay the money, but not to bail you out. The longer you’re locked up, the happier I am.”

Yu Guoqiang lost his smile, “What do you mean?”

“What do I mean? You’re just the son-in-law who married into my family. I know you’ve always despised me, acting high and mighty when you’re just a man who married into my household. I’ve put up with it for so many years just for today!”

Divorce would lead to ridicule in the village, and Yu Guoqiang was the one who had married into her family; Lin Xiaohong didn’t want her parents to be mocked as well.

So she was waiting for a chance, and now it had finally come.

Yu Guoqiang going to prison essentially gave him a criminal record, which would hinder their children and nephews in finding jobs or education due to political background checks.

Under these circumstances, Lin Xiaohong’s divorce became a matter of course, beyond reproach.

Didn’t He Zhenzhen in the village marry the butcher Zhang when Wang Jinshun went to prison?

All He Zhenzhen needed to say was it was for the child’s future good, and no one in the village said much, at most gossiping behind her back.

But Lin Xiaohong didn’t care; she had endured for too long.

Yu Guoqiang had always lorded over her with that superior attitude, completely disregarding her family’s contributions, acting as if he was a prize captured by the Lin Family.

Lin Xiaohong found it revolting!

Sure enough, as soon as Yu Guoqiang had a bit of money, he caused such a scandal.

How could she tolerate this man any longer?

Yu Guoqiang breathed heavily, wishing he could punch Lin Xiaohong hard if he weren’t locked up.

“What did you say? I’m your husband! You dare speak to me like this and still want me to stay in jail, aren’t you afraid of being struck by lightning?”

Lin Xiaohong glared at him.

“You’re my husband? Pah, do you even know what marrying into my family means? Plus, from today onward, we have no relation. I just came to notify you.”

“If that mistress of yours can bail you out, go live with her. If she doesn’t want you either, then get out of my house too. That house was built by my parents, and you have no part in it!”

Lin Xiaohong walked away nonchalantly, her lean figure growing increasingly distant in Yu Guoqiang’s view.

Yu Guoqiang felt a murderous rage inside, but was powerless.

This woman, to kick him when he was down!

Once out, he swore he would never let Lin Xiaohong go.
