Sweet Nostalgia of the 80s

Chapter 517: Chapter 517: Entered the Police Station

”Sis, what should we do with her?” An Ping stood up, a look of loathing in his eyes as he stared at Song Yueqin, ”How about we make some noise with gongs and firecrackers tomorrow, draw the crowd over, and let everyone see what exactly Song Yueqin has been up to?”

”I’ve done something wrong? What wrong have I done?” Song Yueqin clung to a sliver of hope, grinding her teeth, refusing to admit anything.

”What were you sneaking around my family’s greenhouse for in the dead of night? You’ve even got the key to our greenhouse in your hand. Don’t tell me you weren’t here to cause trouble. Even if it wasn’t to cause trouble, it must have been to steal vegetables.”

”I didn’t go in, did I? I haven’t caused you any loss.”

”Sis, listen to her twisted logic. I’ve seen women with thick skins but never one this thick,” An Ping spat fiercely onto the ground, ”You truly have no shame, unbeatable in the whole wide world.”

”Song Yueqin, there’s a saying about standing in a melon field under a plum tree—you should know what it means,” An Hao said, knowing that Song Yueqin wouldn’t just admit to it, and not wanting to waste words with her. Since she was here, she definitely wasn’t empty-handed.

So, An Hao took a flashlight and shone it over her, and seeing nothing unusual on her person, she started looking around.

Not far from the greenhouse, in the field of rapeseed flowers, there was a small sunken patch. She walked over and bent down, reaching into the sunken area to hook out a cloth-satchel sewn together.

Upon opening the satchel, it was full of lime powder.

It must have been that Song Yueqin tossed the satchel away after An Ping had kicked her down.

Seeing her belongings unearthed by An Hao, Song Yueqin’s face betrayed a panicked expression.

An Ping looked at Song Yueqin’s expression and found it hilariously absurd, ”Do you find it fun skulking around and thieving every day? Tell me, when has it ever ended well for you? Why do you always pick on my sister? Does making trouble for my family make your life easier?”

Without a word, Song Yueqin bit down on her teeth.

An Ping felt that she was now a lunatic, with serious issues in her head.

She just couldn’t stand to see someone else doing well!

Unable to do anything to An Hao, who was now the Commander’s daughter-in-law and a top student at the Military Medical University, not to mention her family business was flourishing, it was very difficult for Song Yueqin to find something to pin on An Hao.

But she couldn’t bear to see An Hao living so comfortably. So, she resorted to such pettiness to irritate An Hao, hoping to add some bitterness to her life and disturb her peace.

That was all the thought she had left now.

”Enough, no point in talking nonsense with her. Let’s just take her straight to the police station,” An Hao said, picking up the bag of lime and signaling for An Ping to grab Song Yueqin. The siblings then took her to the police station.

Once Song Yueqin entered the police station, it was a humiliating affair throughout the village.

Song Jincai and Zhang Juyun were also dragged in for a lecture, ordered to compensate for the losses of An Hao’s family, and to apologize in person.

Song Yueqin, however, was sent to be detained in the detention center for seven to fifteen days.

At this time, she was truly grateful she hadn’t caused more damage; otherwise, she might have had to spend the rest of her life in prison.

But upon her release from the detention center, Song Yueqin became a notorious figure in the village.

This notoriety was so foul, even dogs would detour around her.

As the age for marriage approached, not a single suitor came knocking, driving Zhang Juyun to desperation.

It seemed that Song Yueqin had adopted a ’devil-may-care’ attitude, as after coming back from the detention center, she simply ate and drank, then lay on her kang bed all day without stepping out the door.
