Chapter 81 Playing with People's Hearts

The police station also investigated Huang Jialin's claim that he was drunk and felt dizzy, and was seduced by Jiang Tao. The two had indeed drunk alcohol before that.

Jiang Tao appeared here because she wanted to work as a temporary worker in the winery. Although it was impossible for the winery to recruit temporary workers casually, she had asked in the past, which could indirectly prove that Huang Jialin did take in Jiang Tao who was trapped here, instead of bringing her here.

Because it snowed these days, few people went out and no one around had seen Jiang Tao. Only the old lady downstairs met her once in the middle of the night.

Jiang Tao lied and said she was Huang Jialin's daughter-in-law, but that was only her unilateral statement. Huang Jialin had never mentioned this person, so it didn't mean anything.

Therefore, according to the current investigation, Jiang Tao is more likely to plot against Huang Jialin. If things turn out this way in the end, Huang Jialin will lose his job because of this scandal, but he will not go to jail or anything like that.

Because there is no more evidence to prove that the two had a long-term improper relationship, the sentence would not be too severe.

Before this crime was introduced, this kind of situation would result in being pointed out by others, having your hair and face pulled and being beaten, or being criticized in a public meeting, or being paraded around with a sign hanging on the wall. It would not be as exaggerated as going to jail.

Only in recent years, when the system has become stricter, have investigations and sentencing occurred.

If it was when she had just been reborn, Meng Shulan thought that it would be fine if her sister got divorced and Huang Jialin lost his job because of it.

But now, knowing this man's true intentions and his sinister heart, she felt that simply getting rid of his job would be too easy for him.

In her previous life, my sister devoted twenty years to this family. How can she just let it go like this?

Meng Shulan asked: "Comrade, this case won't be settled like this, right?"

The laws in this era were imperfect, and the handling of cases was not as rigorous as in later generations. Apart from serious and major cases, some related cases with serious impacts, like these that could not be sentenced for a long time, were actually relatively casual.

The comrade handling the case said: "If you raise objections, we will continue the investigation based on the circumstances."

objection?

In the previous life, the Meng family had raised objections to this matter. Huang Jialin was cunning and had made preparations in advance. He packaged himself as a victim and fooled everyone.

Jiang Tao did not run away in this life, but she did not speak, which surprised Meng Shulan.

Previously, these two people were fighting each other.

Now they are not saying anything, it seems like they have already discussed the countermeasures in advance.

But if they had discussed it beforehand, what would they fight at the beginning?

Meng Shulan was shocked and finally figured it out. These two people probably had a conversation when they were fighting before.

Huang Jialin didn't know what he said to Jiang Tao, but he calmed her down even though she was about to break up with him.

How insidious! I feel like I underestimated him.

The comrades handling the case were still communicating with Meng Changli. Huang Jialin proposed to meet with Meng Changli many times, but Meng Changli refused.

Of course, she didn't want to see that person now. Once she saw him, she would think of the previous scene, which was too disgusting.

Meng Shulan said: "Comrade, I want to meet Jiang Tao and persuade her to speak up and tell the truth."

Under normal circumstances, this is not allowed, but in rural areas, there are not so many rules. Now that Jiang Tao kept silent, they felt a little embarrassed, so they agreed after thinking about it.

The comrades handling the case took Meng Shulan to the interrogation room.

Jiang Tao's messy clothes had already been tidied up: a red plaid coat, a yellow scarf, black cotton pants and high-top leather shoes.

She is dressed similarly to people in the city.

If she has a job and earns her own money, this outfit would make people envious, and people would feel that she is fashionable, beautiful and capable.

But she is just a villager and a widow, which is intriguing.

Obviously, she couldn't afford such a nice outfit on her own.

So, Huang Jialin bought this for her? Meng Shulan shook her head and quickly denied her thoughts.

That man is selfish and ruthless. He can't possibly be so generous.

It was true that he wanted to use Jiang Tao, but his approach was to make this person willing and willing to pay for him, instead of coaxing and begging her and lowering his own status.

Such people play with people's hearts and their methods are very insidious and sophisticated.

Therefore, Jiang Tao found a way to buy this set of clothes herself, in order to make herself look young and beautiful and please Huang Jialin.

Meng Shulan asked: "Is it worth it?"

Jiang Tao glanced at Meng Shulan and said nothing.

Meng Shulan was silent, and after a while she asked again, "Do you want to save Huang Jialin first, and then let him save you?"

Jiang Tao's heart was shocked and she looked up at Meng Shulan in surprise.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

She knew that the person in front of her was Meng Changli's sister, a high school student, seven or eight years younger than her. She had not experienced the hardships of society and was still a little girl.

At first, when this person followed the investigator in, Jiang Tao thought she wanted to scold herself to vent her sister's anger, but who knew she would ask these questions.

Sure enough, people with ink in their heads are different.

Jiang Tao smiled and quickly moved her eyes to the table. "I don't understand what you are talking about. Now that things have come to this, there is nothing I can do. As for your sister, she and I were in the same class when we were studying in the commune, but I stopped attending school in the fourth grade. We didn't spend much time together, but we knew each other. I feel very sorry that this happened.

But, what can I do? I like Jialin too much, and I was the one who talked to Jialin first. It was your sister who intervened and snatched him away."

How shameless! He can even talk about having an affair so confidently.

Meng Shulan's blood pressure rose instantly, and she really wanted to curse.

But it won’t work. If I really let her lead me by the nose, there’s no way to talk about this matter.

She came here to persuade Jiang Tao to give up Huang Jialin, not to beat her or scold her.

According to Gu Hansong's analysis, this woman is nothing more than a tool and a pawn.

She is even dumber than her sister in her previous life. Her sister was at least legitimate, but so what if this person gave birth to a son for the Huang family? It has always been hidden from the public.

Jiang Tao, who had been silent all this time, finally spoke, and there was a hint of confession in her words.

When the investigator next to him heard this, he quickly took out a notebook and wrote down these words.

Meng Shulan: "Are these words what you think in your heart, or did Huang Jialin teach you to say them?"

Jiang Tao curled her lips and said, "Does it make sense for you to keep worrying about these things?"

Meng Shulan also smiled and said, "Indeed, you are ready to take the blame for him. It feels like it would be futile to say more.

I just don't understand what he promised you that made you willing to go to jail for him. Was it to wait for you to get out of jail after the divorce and marry you? Or was it a great benefit that would allow you to have no worries about food and clothing in the future?

Jiang Tao, you are twenty-six now, why are you still as naive as a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl? "
