Chapter 197: Please (Page 1/2)

From the first trial to the second trial, the trial finally ended.

The verdict is out.

Wu Wenwan was sentenced to ten years in prison for indirectly causing Shen Jiao's death and helping Wu's father accept bribes.

Zhang Yuelan's condition is more serious.

She was the culprit who directly caused Shen Jiao's death and was sentenced to life imprisonment.

Chen Baomei and Shen Ru took Niu Niu to the trial scene. When Wu Wenwan heard the result, she fainted on the spot.

Zhang Yuelan collapsed to the ground, madly unable to believe the result.

She just pulled out an oxygen mask, but she didn't expect that it would cost her the rest of her life.

Being trapped in a square wall for the rest of her life was more painful than killing her.

She cried and shouted that she was innocent.

Those who cursed and complained about drowning children in rural areas are all alive and well. She just took off her oxygen mask. Why should she be locked up for life?

Niu Niu watched her coldly as she made a fuss and screamed, and then was dragged away.

After coming out of the courtroom, Niu Niu was not in a very good mood.

"They all got their comeuppance. Aren't you happy?"

Zhang Yuelan was the culprit who directly caused Niu Niu's miserable life in the first ten years of her life, and Wu Wenwan was an accomplice.

In their previous life, the two of them and Shen Jiao were the murderers who killed Niu Niu.

The child shouldn't be so depressed after seeing what happened to them.

Niuniu shook her head. "No, Grandma, what Zhang Yuelan said is true. Someone really drowned a child in Lougaotang Village, and they were completely fine."

He was not arrested and was not brought to justice.

"When I was little, there was a family at the end of the village who gave birth to five daughters in a row. The middle one died soon after birth. I saw with my own eyes that the old woman threw the fifth daughter into the river right after she was born."

At that time, Niu Niu often went to the river to wash clothes.

It was getting dark at the time and the old woman didn't notice her.

Niu Niu saw her sneaking to the river with the little ball in her arms, then opening the package, picking up the baby girl's legs, and throwing the child into the river without hesitation, just like throwing seedlings when transplanting rice.

The child had no clothes on and was completely naked.

She fell into the river, struggled twice, howled a few times, and was then mercilessly washed away by the current.

Niu Niu was so scared that she had nightmares for several days.

She told Zhang Yuelan about this, and Zhang Yuelan seriously warned her not to talk about it outside.

Zhang Yuelan also took this opportunity to criticize her, saying that money-losing people should be drowned, and that she was able to raise Niuniu well, so Niuniu should be grateful and devote herself to this family.

She also said that if it weren't for her kindness, Niu Niu would have turned into a handful of earth long ago.

Chen Baomei didn't expect that even in this day and age, there are still so many people who favor boys over girls.

"If the public doesn't file a complaint, the officials won't investigate. Any act of arbitrarily taking someone's life is a crime. They haven't been punished by law because the police don't know, not because they are innocent."

Niuniu: "Just because they don't have that little bit of meat under their crotch, do they not deserve to live in this world?"

Some people are small, so that thing might not even weigh two taels.

The old woman is a woman herself, so why is she so vicious to her granddaughter who is also a woman?

Doesn't she feel like she's betraying her own gender by supporting men so much?

Niu Niu felt really sad when she thought about it.

Chen Baomei: "People's thoughts and ideas are difficult to change. All we can do is to call the police immediately when we see such situations, and then remind ourselves not to become such people."

Niu Niu nodded.

She didn't want to be that kind of person.

Chen Baomei wanted to reach out and rub her furry little head, but she didn't realize that the child had grown much taller than her.

Chen Baomei patted her shoulder and said, "Don't think too much. Your task now is to study hard and get into a good university."

"Um."

The case of Wu's father was also sentenced later. Because the amount was particularly huge, Wu's father was sentenced to life imprisonment, life imprisonment without the possibility of commutation or parole, and his property was confiscated and a fine was imposed.

In order to save Wu's father, Wu's mother sold the family's real estate and valuables, leaving only a small one-bedroom house for herself to live in.

It’s a pity that all the efforts were in vain and Mr. Wu will never be able to get out of this life.

Of the three members of the Wu family, only Wu's mother is left.

Perhaps because she was old and had no one to rely on, Wu's mother actually turned her attention to Niu Niu.

On Saturday afternoon, Chen Baomei went to the school to pick up Niu Niu, and saw Wu's mother holding a bag of things at the school gate, trying to stuff it into Niu Niu's hands.

Chen Baomei hurried over to see what was going on.

Then she heard Wu's mother scolding her, "It's just a little gift from grandma. You should just accept it. Why are you so awkward?"

"I don't need it."

Niu Niu simply put her hands behind her back and refused to take her things.

"you......"

"What are you doing?!" Chen Baomei shouted harshly.

Seeing Chen Baomei, Niu Niu ran to Chen Baomei with a look of surprise.

"grandmother!"

Chen Baomei didn't expect that just because she was two minutes late due to traffic jam, Wu's mother would take advantage of the opportunity.

"Baomei, you're here to pick up Niuniu."

Mother Wu smiled awkwardly.

The smile on his face was forced.

"What do you want from Niu Niu?" Chen Baomei didn't give her a good look at all.

Mother Wu: "Look at what you said. I am Niuniu's grandmother. She is studying hard, so I want to know what's wrong with her."

"Here, this is the learning machine I bought for my child. With this thing, Niuniu will definitely get twice the result with half the effort in her studies. Come on, Niuniu, take it quickly."

Niuniu: “No need.”

Chen Baomei sneered, "The sun really is rising from the west today. Didn't you always dislike Niuniu and never care about her in the past? Why have you changed your ways now?"

"What made you change your mind and start trying to please Niuniu? Oh, that's so hard to guess!"

Mother Wu felt suffocated by Chen Baomei's sarcastic tone.

"How can you misinterpret someone's kindness? Niuniu is my junior, so it's normal for me to be nice to her. I also bought this learning machine for Huihui. I haven't treated anyone unfairly. Please don't make presumptuous assumptions and slander me in front of Niuniu."

Chen Baomei: "You have no memory, right? Do you want me to help you recall what you did on your own before?"

Neither she nor Wu's father attended the child's recognition party.

Knowing that the child was taken away by mistake, they never showed any concern for Niu Niu, and even treated her with disgust and aversion.

"Why are you trying to please Niuniu now? Isn't it because all of your Wu family members are in jail, and you're old and have no one to rely on. You're afraid you'll end up alone, and you're afraid Wu Wenwan will be released without anyone to help and take care of her?"

"When you look down on Niuniu, you belittle her. Seeing that Niuniu is both virtuous and academically excellent and has a bright future, while your Wu family is rotten in the mud, you come to please her and want to suck her blood."

Wu Wenwan will not be released for another ten years. It is normal for her mother, who is alone and old, to be afraid that no one will see her off to the end of her life.

By the time Wu Wenwan came out, she was already old.

He has no special skills and has a criminal record, so he may not even be able to support himself. He has to ask his biological daughter Niuniu for support.
