As for Sha Zhu, his only relative was pushed away by him and they didn't want to have much contact with him. Moreover, he was sentenced the heaviest among the five.

He had been hoping that Director Yang would come to rescue him, but he was severely punished for refusing to cooperate with the investigation.

Twenty years? Just thinking about it is scary. So when Sha Zhu knew his verdict, he fell to the ground and looked at the roof with no light in his eyes.

He didn't know what he would face in the future, and couldn't even imagine what the scene would be like when he was sent to Northeast China to serve his sentence in a few days.

It's all unknown and scary.

For Sha Zhu, it can be said to be the ultimate misery for an individual, but for the Jia family, it was the tragedy of the entire family, young and old, being wiped out in one pot. Fortunately, a small pawn was left.

Qin Huairu and Jia Dongxu couldn't believe it at all. They were sentenced to ten years in prison for such a small thing.

But now this has become a fact, they cannot change it and can only accept it helplessly.

However, what made them most devastated was that Banggeng was also sentenced to five years in prison!

This was a bolt from the blue for the Jia family, because Banggeng had always been regarded as the future and hope of the family.

Now, this hope has been completely shattered and turned into endless despair.

Especially for Qin Huairu, she knew very well that she might not achieve much in her life, so she placed all her hopes on Banggeng.

Originally, she thought Banggeng was still a child. Even if he stole the money, he had already returned it to Zhou Jin at that time. Although she had already spent more than ten yuan, she could just give him the money back. At most, she would just need to educate him again.

But now, Banggeng has been imprisoned for theft before he is even an adult. Even after his release from prison, he will not be able to continue his studies, let alone find a suitable job.

It can be said that his life has been almost ruined.

However, when Qin Huairu learned that Xiaodang would be sent back to Qinjia Village, she began to feel regretful.

She seemed to see her own childhood, the girl who worked hard and suffered a lot in the countryside, and only wanted to marry into the city and live a happy life when she grew up.

But now, although she got married into the city as she wished, she lost everything because of her momentary greed.

And now, her daughter is following in her footsteps, returning to the countryside to re-experience the hard life she once experienced.

Thinking of this, Qin Huairu finally shed tears of regret. This time it was not to establish a character, but she really regretted it.

She regretted why she had to live her life like this?

If she had not agreed to Jia Dongxu's request, if she had not harbored resentment towards Zhou Jin because of her selfishness, if she had been kind to others, perhaps she would still have a happy family now and would not have ended up like this.

However, it was too late.

She knew that the mistake she made was irreversible and she had to bear the consequences.

Although her heart was filled with regret, she understood that all of this was caused by herself.

Now, she can only accept this cruel reality and try to face the future life.

But it was too late for her to regret. She, Jia Dongxu, and Sha Zhu would be sent to Northeast China for labor reform in five days.

Banggengbei will be sent to the Sijiucheng Juvenile Offenders Correctional Institution on Tuanhe Road in Daxing District for education, rescue and reform.

It is very likely that the three of them will never see each other again.

In that distant and strange place, Qin Huairu didn't dare to imagine what kind of life they would live in the future, perhaps they would never come back.

Thinking of this, Qin Huairu stood up and applied to the police to allow the family to meet before being sent to the Northeast.

The police officer on duty reported the situation directly to the director. After repeated consideration, the director agreed to Qin Huairu's request and gave them half an hour to meet.

When Qin Huairu learned that the police station chief agreed to give their family half an hour to meet, a complex emotion surged in Qin Huairu's heart.

She was grateful for the director's kindness, but also afraid of the impending separation.

She held the corner of her clothes tightly and walked towards the visiting room with heavy steps.

The door of the visiting room slowly opened, and Qin Huairu saw Jia Dongxu and Bang Geng sitting there.

At this moment, Jia Dongxu's face was full of fear, and his eyes were dim, as if he had lost all hope.

Banggeng lowered his head, not daring to look into his mother's eyes. His little hands were clenched tightly together, trembling slightly.

Qin Huairu walked slowly in front of them, tears instantly welling up in her eyes.

She reached out her hand tremblingly, stroked Jia Dongxu's face, and said in a choked voice: "Dongxu, how did we get to this point?"

Jia Dongxu held Qin Huairu's hand, tears welling up in his eyes: "It's all my fault. I shouldn't have been so confused and ruined our family."

Bang Geng heard his parents' conversation and finally couldn't help but look up, tears welling up in his eyes: "Mom, I'm scared, I don't want to stay here anymore, when will you take me home, I want to go home, I want to go home."

Qin Huairu hugged Banggeng into her arms and burst into tears: "Banggeng, why are you so ignorant? You are so young, how dare you go to Zhou Jin's house to steal things? It's all my fault for not keeping an eye on you."

The family of three hugged each other tightly, regret and reluctance filled the air.

Bang Geng hugged Qin Huairu's neck tightly, like a frightened little animal, and said in a trembling voice with tears in his eyes: "Mom, I don't want to go to the juvenile detention center, I'm scared..."

His eyes were full of fear and helplessness, which made people feel distressed.

Qin Huairu looked at her son distressedly, stroked his hair gently, and comforted him softly, "Banggeng, don't be afraid. You must reform yourself in there and try to get out as soon as possible. Mom will always be waiting for you.

When you come back, mom will make you lots of delicious food, all of which are your favorite dishes. You must take good care of yourself in there, okay?"

Banggeng nodded vigorously and looked at his mother with tears in his eyes, his heart filled with worry and anxiety about the future.

Time seemed to freeze at this moment, and every second seemed particularly long.

The half-hour meeting time passed in a flash, as if it was just a blink of an eye.

When the time of separation came, Qin Huairu held Jia Dongxu and Banggeng's hands tightly, unwilling to let go for a long time.

Her eyes were full of reluctance and attachment, as if she wanted to keep this brief reunion deep in her memory forever.

Finally, at the urging of the police, the three of them had to separate and were taken back to their respective detention rooms by the police.

Qin Huairu pressed tightly against the door, watching Jia Dongxu and Bang Geng being taken away, tears blurring her eyes again.

Her heart ached as if it was being cut by a knife, but she could only accept the reality helplessly.

The wheel of fate continues to roll forward, and the story of Qin Huairu's family continues.
