Quick Transmigration: The Mad Beauty Refuses to Be the Scapegoat!

Jiang Shun chased out.

Before leaving, he didn’t forget to throw out a harsh remark.

"Since it’s like this, we don’t need to be father and son anymore! You never treated me as your son!"

Jiang Hai kept a cold face, anger surging in his heart.

Useless thing!

How could he have such a useless son!

Forget it, let him be.

Without suffering a bit, he still thinks his life has been too smooth.

Shen Yaoyao eventually brought some dowry when she got married.

The dowry came from what she had saved over the years with the Jiang Family, the rest was given by Jiang Shun.

To make his sister have a grand wedding, he bought everything himself.

His former colleagues at the dock, and now his odd-job colleagues at the steel factory, he borrowed from everyone he could.

It was all for buying dowry for Shen Yaoyao.

Even so, on the wedding day, there was not a stir.

The local customs were not followed at all by the Zhang Family; they simply set off a string of firecrackers, and there wasn’t even a banquet.

Seeing this, Shen Yaoyao felt so hurt that she burst into tears.

Crying was useless, and it wasn’t until the night of the bridal chamber that Zhang Shuci returned drunk.

When he came back, he even had a girl with him.

"You, sleep outside tonight."

Shen Yaoyao was furious, it was their wedding night, and Zhang Shuci brought another woman home and wanted to throw her out!

Crying and making a fuss was completely useless, Zhang Shuci grabbed her arm and pushed her out.

In the large Zhang Family, no one came out to comfort her as Shen Yaoyao cried all night.

The next day, life went on as usual, the only difference being that the Zhang Family had one more aunt.

The young aunt, with more things to do.

The factory director’s wife wouldn’t waste such a free labor force, demanding Shen Yaoyao quit her restaurant job before the marriage to stay home, and now that she was idle, she was responsible for all three meals a day, including the family’s afternoon snacks and Zhang Shuci’s midnight meals.

Day and night in the kitchen, with her rare breaks spent watering flowers and weeding.

Previously, what Shen Yaoyao most longed for was the Zhang Family’s backyard, with evergreen trees and greenhouse flowers.

The first time she came, she fantasized about sunbathing and drinking coffee there.

Now her wish is half fulfilled.

She could only enjoy the backyard’s sunlight.

She couldn’t enjoy expensive coffee, and a leisurely life was even more out of reach.

——

Jiang Lai found that the steel factory hadn’t been peaceful lately.

Many inspectors were coming and going.

At the restaurant, she could usually get firsthand news, after all, the guests in the private rooms were all influential, Jiang Li just had to stand by the back wall to hear everything clearly.

"It seems that behind the coal yard, on the abandoned coal pile, they found a dozen... dead people."

Jiang Lai nodded.

"And then?"

"The coal yard definitely can’t admit it’s from their own factory, so they actively cooperated with the investigation. Later, it was discovered to be from the steel factory, a batch of new odd-job workers were crushed to death while transporting steel, and there were over a dozen dead."

Jiang Lai was lost in thought.

Jiang Li had also heard a lot of these shocking news during this time, and after a moment of reflection, asked.

"Logically speaking, the steel factory is so big, it’s unlikely they’d drag people to the coal yard, wouldn’t it be easier to throw them into the steel pool and be done with it?"

Jiang Lai glanced at him, reached out, and slapped him hard on the head.

"You’re so knowledgeable."

"It’s true... The people in the private room just said someone deliberately stole the bodies to bring down the steel factory manager."

Jiang Li spoke cautiously, not noticing Lin Gao walking up behind him.

"I also heard, that the steel factory manager is about to be toppled, because a batch of raw materials was previously found to be substandard, and now the higher-ups are figuring out how to deal with him."

The Zhang Family indeed felt tense now, after all, it had been a long time since they’d heard about a Zhang Family gathering.

Previously, they were quite enthusiastic, hosting family banquets for relatives and friends at home every month.

As for now, nothing is happening.

And no one dares to go.

"Oh Brother Gao, when did you come? Have you heard? Your uncle is about to have bad luck, shouldn’t you prepare in advance? Will it affect you?"

Lin Gao looked at Jiang Li, with a clear and naive expression.

"No, it won’t."

"Don’t worry, anyway, your relationship with your uncle isn’t that good. You’re doing well now at the coal yard, no need to suffer that again."

Lin Gao was expressionless, listening to Jiang Li issuing orders.

"But the person behind this is really powerful! They managed to get hold of so many incriminating evidences!

Who do you think this person is?

Brother Gao, you know more about these things, who do you think it could be?"

Lin Gao shook his head, looking sincere.

"I don’t know."

"Well, you’re not working at the restaurant, so you certainly don’t have the same info as I do.

I’ll tell you, now I hold half the town’s little secrets, if you want to know about your uncle’s affairs, come to me!"

Jiang Lai smiled slightly.

"Shut up, go clean up the things in the back kitchen."

"Chasing me away again, you two must have something going on! Lin Gao, don’t bully my sister!"

Lin Gao watched Jiang Lai, slightly curling his lips.

"I dare not."

Jiang Li left, the surroundings quieted significantly.

"Is it done?"

"Yes, it’s done."

"What do you plan to do next?"

Zhang Hanzheng will certainly serve time, not a single one of the Zhang Family will get away.

Lin Gao was quite thorough, leaving no way out for the Zhang Family.

Now just waiting to watch the show.

Having avenged himself, Lin Gao had a brighter look in his eyes, unlike the perpetual gloom before, and he appeared completely relieved.

"My grandfather left an old house for me in town, I haven’t been back in years, I want to go see it."

"Hmm."

"Jiang Lai, where do you want to live in the future?"

"Wherever my home is, that’s where I’ll live."

Lin Gao pondered, silently locking eyes with Jiang Lai.

"I have nowhere to live in the city now."

"Doesn’t the coal yard allocate houses?"

"Yes, but Little Si Zi and the others are living there."

He added, staring quietly at Jiang Lai.

"I heard Brother Hu and Ali were also allocated houses."

"Hmm, and I was too."

"Is your house big?"

Jiang Lai’s eyes curved, smiling helplessly.

"Why? You want to live with me again?"

"I’ve always wanted to, don’t worry, I won’t take up much space."

After speaking, Lin Gao added another sentence.

"I’m not as good at cooking as you, but I’ve been learning recently. I also... also knitted you a sweater."

He then handed the bag he had been holding to Jiang Lai.

Jiang Lai pulled out a light blue sweater.

It felt very soft, not rough at all.

"Did you knit it yourself?"

"Yes."

"Was the scarf before also knitted by you?"

Lin Gao’s eyes sparkled, nodding.
