Chapter 1007 Too Clever for One’s Own Good
When she first heard that Zhai Hua was not young anymore, she did not really like her.
However, she accepted her in the end since she was the daughter of the chief.
She knew very well why her son called her on the phone.
Therefore, after ending the call with her son, Mother Wei began to brainwash her ‘adopted daughter’, who was also her daughter-in-law.
Mother Wei told the woman that she and Wei De did not collect the marriage certificate. According to the law, they were not considered as husband and wife.
Wei De had a bright future waiting for him. He met a very good lady. Mother Wei hoped that she would not stand in his way.
If Wei De was successful, the Wei family would be able to lead a good life.
Wei Wei was her son as well as Wei De’s son. If Wei De was rich, he would not leave his son in the lurch. Moreover, the lady who was Wei De’s girlfriend came from a well-to-do family. Unfortunately, she was not young anymore.
She might not be able to bear children for Wei De. Even if she did, the child might not be a son.
In that case, Wei Wei would inherit everything from Wei De. In the Wei family, daughters were not allowed to inherit the family property.
If she really cared for Wei Wei, she should keep quiet about it and she must not tell others about her relationship with Wei De.
The lady was raised by the Wei family. She was meek and gentle. Even though she felt sad at Mother Wei’s words, she went along with the Wei family regardless of what they said.
She had a wedding banquet with Brother De. They even invited all the villagers, including the village chief, to the wedding banquet.
She was Brother De’s wife and Wei Wei’s mother. Why would a daughter of the chief come into the picture all of a sudden? What used to belong to her was taken away from her and she was seen as an indecent woman who had an illegitimate child.
Although she was heartbroken, she had no intention of going against the Wei family.
She did not know that she was the daughter of the village chief and that the village chief had been good to the Wei family on account of her. Although she was unwilling to accept such an arrangement and she felt aggrieved, she had no choice but to agree to it in tears.
Zhai Hua had never been to Wei De’s hometown. People from Wei De’s hometown were unaware of Wei De’s recent developments.
In this way, Wei De managed to deceive everyone, including Zhai Yaohui and Zhai Sheng.
If they knew that Wei De had a wedding banquet in his hometown, was married, and had a son, Wei Wei, they would not waste so much time on him. They would kick him out of the house right away.
Wei De was way too terrible. He was worse than people who hid the fact that they had a second marriage.
Clearly, he had been scheming right from the start. It was his intention not to collect the marriage certificate. This was so that he would have the chance to look for a better spouse once he left the countryside and got to know more people.
The ladies in the city were used to living a good life and would certainly refuse to stay in the countryside.
The worst scenario was that Wei De might be thinking of having a wife in the city and another wife in the countryside. In that case, he could have a wife and a concubine at the same time.
Wei De was so selfish and shameless. What he intended to do was to ruin the lives of two women.
That was why Zhai Hua wished to end him with a gunshot when she learned the truth.
She could tell why Wei De refused to collect the marriage certificate despite holding a wedding banquet. Once he collected the marriage certificate, there would be a record of his marriage in the national database.
By then, one would be able to tell that Wei De was married from checking the database. Even if he was single, one would be able to know that he had been through a divorce.
A man like him who was full of lies and would do anything in order to achieve his motive would not have true feelings for her.
Even if Zhai Hua wanted to deceive herself right now, there was no way that she could continue to play along with Wei De.
Now that she knew that Wei De had a wife in his hometown, she was reminded of all those years where Wei De took leave to go back to his hometown at least two to three times a year.
She did not believe that whenever Wei De was back in his hometown, he would only chat with his wife on the bed and do nothing else.
If this were the case, they would not have Wei Wei.
Wei De was very good at keeping up with pretenses. He would not stay for long when he was back in his hometown. He would only stay there for a week or so.
After returning to the army from his hometown, Wei De would hold Zhai Hua tightly, telling her that he missed her very much while he was away, that he hoped to bring Zhai Hua back to his hometown next time so that he could introduce her to his family, telling them that she was his fiancée.
Back then, Zhai Hua was swept away by his honeyed words. But right now, those words were like a sharp knife, piercing Zhai Hua over and over again.
After Wei De left the camp and started his business, he would make more trips back to his hometown and he would stay for a longer period of time before coming back.
Zhai Hua could not help but have a crazy thought. Perhaps his wife in his hometown might be pregnant with a second child.
On one hand, Wei De declared his love for her and said that he wanted to marry her, that he could not do without her. On the other hand, he had a happy time with his wife that he refused to acknowledge.
What was worse was that he was so despicable to bring their child to Ping Cheng, wanting Zhai Hua to bring up the child and pave a smooth path for him.
Whenever she thought of that, Zhai Hua felt that she was going crazy. She could not control herself from turning berserk or stop herself from killing Wei De!
After reading through the information, Qiao Nan empathized with Zhai Hua and understood her hatred as well as her deep-set thought of ending Wei De’s life with her own hands.
But the country was governed by law. Everyone was equal in the eyes of the law. Even though Zhai Hua was the daughter of the Zhai family, she was no exception.
“You are courting disaster.” Qiao Nan returned the information to where it was. “Wei De, don’t you feel guilty at all?”
Or perhaps Wei De felt that he had Sister Zhai Hua under his thumb and he was not worried that she would discover the truth?
Given that he was so ambitious, Wei De indeed needed to use every means to hide the existence of Wei Wei and that woman.
The funny thing was that perhaps it was because Wei Wei was a son, or that Wei De was not certain whether Sister Zhai Hua would be able to have a child at her age—she might not have a son even if she could—that he cherished Wei Wei very much.
Wei De kept very quiet about the woman. But in order for Wei Wei to carry on his family line, he brought him from his hometown to stay with him and he treated him very well. However, this had backfired on him.
“I can tell from your gaze that you must be thinking that if not for me, no one would be able to expose all your lies, no?”
As soon as Qiao Nan said those words, Wei De stared at her like a ferocious beast. He could not wait to tear her apart. Zhai Sheng frowned in anger and punched Wei De hard in his face.
