She was robbed by the leader of the family and had three children.

Chapter 708: Shocking 3 Views

Sister Cao smiled with a slightly strange expression, looked at Zhao Jinhua, but did not answer the question.

Just then, someone outside shouted, "Sister Cao! Sister Cao..."

She uttered an "Ah," and then said hurriedly:

"They must be waiting for my letter too. I'm leaving now! Anyway, that's the truth of the matter. Just keep it to yourselves and don't spread it around!"

Who is the person who is being rumored now?

Sister Cao left in a hurry.

But everyone saw the eye-to-eye quarrel between her and Zhao Jinhua just now.

Mrs. Jin asked Zhao Jinhua, "So, why is that?"

Could it be that the public security comrades don’t care about this matter?

Isn't that right? This kind of issue of male and female behavior is a top priority right now, so how could anyone ignore it?

Zhao Jinhua was also shocked by what Sister Cao said about the Lin family's situation. It took her a while to come back to her senses.

Facing their questions again, she finally had time to think about it and said, "Actually, ahem..."

"Well, it's actually nothing. You don't need to ask. The Lin family probably won't report this to the police anyway."

Ye Shu had been listening quietly. Seeing her evasive expression, she suddenly had a sudden inspiration and guessed:

"Is it because you have a tradition here that men in a family can marry one woman at a time?"

Zhao Jinhua was stunned, her face was obviously shocked, her eyes widened!

I never expected that Ye Shu would guess it right away!

In the eyes of others, her reaction was actually equivalent to tacit agreement.

Mrs. Jin gasped. "Because of this tradition, you think it's no big deal that my uncle slept with my sister-in-law? There's no need to call the police?"

Zhao Jinhua quickly defended herself, "Of course not! This tradition isn't shared by everyone in Wumu District. It's not the case here anyway."

"Also, as far as I know, places with these traditions have very different rules. For example, the three brothers of the Lin family are now married, which means they have abandoned the tradition of marrying one woman per family. So, they must marry one-on-one and not randomly!"

"The boss slept with his brother's wife, that's wrong!"

Ye Shu grasped the contradiction: "Then why do you say calling the police is useless?"

Zhao Jinhua felt that they were a little too innocent and clear-minded: "Because they are useless!"

Zhuang Jingjing's analysis:

"People with this kind of traditional thinking actually have very low boundaries when it comes to relationships between men and women. If the eldest brother sleeps with his younger brother's wife, is that the same as sleeping with his own woman? The key is to catch this kind of crime in the act, only then will it be effective?"

Zhao Jinhua: "...That's about it. There are situations like this, the women from the family behind and the men from the family behind..."

Mrs. Jin: "Since you think this situation is commonplace, why are you still so gossipy?"

Zhao Jinhua: "...because we didn't know the Lin family had such a tradition at first!"

"This kind of traditional family is usually only found in the countryside!"

"All the things we heard about before happened in the countryside!"

In short, this is the truth. As for why they didn't call the police and why they said calling the police would be useless, probably only the people involved know.

For outsiders, it's just a piece of melon.

Ye Shu asked, "Do you think there will be anyone kind enough to help publish a newspaper?"

When it comes to reporting, Zhao Jinhua feels a little guilty.

She had reported it to Ye Shu, but Ye Shu was fined and she was beaten up.

She was beaten by her own man.

No one noticed her at the moment, so she secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's useless. Even if someone reports it, the police won't be able to find anything."

Mrs. Jin nodded: "Yes, in this kind of situation, we always catch the adulterers in pairs! If we can't catch them, it's useless to report them."

That makes sense.

Zhao Jinhua revealed another secret: "Not really, there's another reason."

Everyone looked at her: "What?"

Zhao Jinhua: "That's the Lin family's housing situation. They have four families, young and old, but they only have three rooms!"

"The old couple and the second oldest family live in one room, the eldest and third oldest family live together, and the other room is occupied by all the younger generations of their family."

This information is really explosive!

But when I think about it, it seems normal because there is indeed a housing shortage now.

Mrs. Tang asked in more detail: "How did these three rooms come about?"

Zhao Jinhua:

"The old couple of the Lin family worked at the machinery factory and were initially assigned a room. The eldest and second sons, due to their seniority, were also assigned rooms. That left the third son, who worked at the kiln factory and wasn't eligible for a room. So, he often lived with Old Lin at the time, since he wasn't married anyway."

"When the eldest son got his share of the house, the second son wasn't even eligible yet, so even though he was married, he still lived with the old Lin couple."

"Later, the children of both families grew up and couldn't fit in their own houses. The third child was getting married, and the second child's house was also divided. So, it was decided by Old Lin that the second child's house be shared by the two children. After the third child got married, he lived with the eldest child's family in one room, with a curtain separating the two rooms."

"Later, the third brother's child was born, and this co-living model has been preserved."

"You said that their two families already lived together, and the uncle and his wife already shared a room. What would you say if this was really reported?"

Mrs. Tang: "Maybe they'll use this as an excuse to ask the company to allocate housing!"

Zhao Jinhua: "Unless we really catch them in the act of sex! But it's obvious that the eldest brother's wife is protecting them, so we can't catch them!"

Ye Shu felt that after hearing this gossip, her three views seemed to be completely reshaped!

She felt awkward and uncomfortable!

At this time, Chen Miao, who had been listening to gossip with them but didn't say much, spoke up:

"In the final analysis, it's all about the lack of housing. Their situation is similar to the alleys in Shanghai."

"They're still pretty lucky, with two families living in one room."

"Sometimes, the houses in Shanghai's alleys are only a little over ten square meters, but there are three or four families living together! No room for a bed? Then just bunk beds!"

When she said this, Mrs. Jin and the others were shocked: "Doesn't that mean every family has no secrets?"

Chen Miao: "What secrets are there? Husband and wife make love under everyone's noses. The situation is forced. Either you don't live, or you have to endure it."

Ye Shu was only surprised for a moment, then quickly realized: "So the Lin family is also holding back because of the house issue."

Chen Miao secretly glanced at the empty front yard of Courtyard No. 2. Almost every family was allocated three or four rooms, but in fact not all of them were occupied.

For example, there are three rooms in Mrs. Jin’s house, but only two of them are used, and the other one is empty.

How unfair is this to those who have a tight housing supply and cannot find a place to live?
