Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space

Chapter 224: Chapter 224: This Is a Family Matter—It’s Not Security’s Business

The eggs in the pot were meant for Niqiu, and Bai Cuilin didn’t expect her son hadn’t returned yet, but the eggs were gone. And it just so happened that Qiao Lihua had just come out of the kitchen. If she wasn’t going to hit him, who would she hit?

At this moment, the Niqiu they mentioned came running in from outside: "Mom, I’m so thirsty, I want some water."

With this shout, everyone looked at him, and as they did, they all saw the problem — there was still egg yolk at the corner of Niqiu’s mouth.

Sister Cheng, afraid that Bai Cuilin wouldn’t admit it, grabbed Niqiu who rushed in: "Niqiu, were the eggs tasty?"

Niqiu chuckled: "Yes, they were delicious."

Sister Cheng immediately asked, "When you came back for the eggs, why didn’t you tell your mom?"

Niqiu raised his hand to wipe his nose: "When I came back, there was no one at home."

After saying that, he ignored Sister Cheng, broke free from her grip, and said, "Mom, I want water."

At this moment, Bai Cuilin’s face was alternating between green and red, and she thick-skinnedly shouted, "What household doesn’t have kids that get spanked, disperse, there’s nothing to see here."

Manager Cao wasn’t so easily dismissed and pointed at the two battered children: "Since Comrade Qiao Shuanzhu brought these two children here, you have to take responsibility. But look, how have these two kids been beaten?

Bai Cuilin, you are their aunt, and you’re a mother yourself, how could you strike them like that, and without distinguishing right from wrong — you’re something else."

Bai Cuilin was quite rough and shameless, her face was really thick, but when she encountered Manager Cao, she had to shed a layer of skin.

Manager Cao first brought the two children over, checked their injuries, and said to Bai Cuilin: "I’ll take the two kids to the hospital to examine and treat their injuries. This matter can’t be glossed over. When Comrade Qiao Shuanzhu returns, have him pick up the kids from the Women’s Federation."

When Bai Cuilin heard what Manager Cao said, she refused to comply. If the kids were taken away, wouldn’t she get beaten when her husband came back? She couldn’t agree to that.

At this time, He Jinxuan, who was outside the main door, spoke up: "If you keep making a scene, I can only take you to the security department."

Bai Cuilin looked at He Jinxuan: "This is a family matter, not something for your security department to handle."

He Jinxuan didn’t back down at all: "You unjustly beat the two children, everyone saw it. If it’s not for the security department to handle, surely the police can, right?"

Bai Cuilin didn’t expect He Jinxuan to stand up for those two little bastards: "Don’t think just because you’re a section chief that you can manage my family’s affairs. If you feel sorry for them, you take them back and raise them."

Seeing her still yelling, He Jinxuan directly said to Cheng Changlin: "Make a trip and file a report."

Being a half-grown kid who enjoyed the fuss, Cheng Changlin immediately rushed out when he heard this. Bai Cuilin slapped her leg and shouted, "Come back here, you little brat."

Upon hearing this insulting language, Sister Cheng wouldn’t have it: "Who are you calling a little bastard, always taking out your anger on your two nephews and nieces, I think you should be put in a cell to be educated."

Bai Cuilin was already furious, and upon hearing Sister Cheng’s words, she charged over: "I’ll fight you."

In no time, the situation changed, and when they started fighting, many people stepped in to take sides. Bai Cuilin was pulled away by others, but Sister Cheng managed to give her a good thrashing.

He Jinxuan had meant to deal with Bai Cuilin, so naturally, he got the job done. Cheng Changlin ran fast, and it didn’t take long for the police to arrive. Upon hearing it was about child abuse, and with the testimony of the neighbors, Bai Cuilin was taken away.

Manager Cao took Qiao Lihua and Qiao Xiaomiao to the hospital for treatment and then directly to the Women’s Federation to wait for Qiao Shuanzhu to fetch them.

As a result, due to Bai Cuilin’s non-cooperation, it affected the factory directly, and Qiao Shuanzhu was called away from the workshop. Though he fetched the kids back, the higher-ups weren’t happy with him; having to handle his family’s matters on a rare weekend break didn’t sit well with them.

On top of that, they couldn’t stand Bai Cuilin’s behavior, and directly told Qiao Shuanzhu to reflect at home and only return to work after dealing with his family’s issues. This left no face for Qiao Shuanzhu, indicating that good things won’t come his way again in the future.
