"Marshal Li, you must stand up for us!"

A group of people dressed in tattered clothes rushed into the Li family's house, and the guards at the door acted as if they didn't see them and let them in.

Something seemed off. When they finally saw who it was, the Kang family members' expressions changed.

"Who are you? This isn't the police station. If you have any grievances, go to the police station."

Marshal Li calmly picked up the teacup on the table and began to drink his tea.

"Old Marshal, we dare not go! We're here to find the Kang family. They've done so much harm to our family!"

The old woman leading the group was crying her heart out.

"Oh? What did the Kang family do?" Marshal Li's question sent a chill down the spines of the Kang family.

"What do you want? If you have something to say, say it outside. Do you even know where you are?"

Even though a long time had passed, Kang Qiqi still recognized who these people were.

"You little slut, get out of here! There's not a single good piece of trash in your Kang family."

"My poor Juzi, old marshal, we are from Pingding County. My youngest daughter Juzi went to work at a leather shoe factory in Beijing after graduating from high school."

"She was doing well there when one day a man came and said that he was the old marshal's grandson named Qi Bowen. He threatened my Juzi to give up her job for the sake of his lover."

"Yes, that's the woman. I've seen her before; I saw her when she came to hand over her work."

“My poor Ju Zi, she’s just a country girl, how could she possibly compete with them? She was forced to give up her job by them.”

“Even so, they were still afraid she would go around spreading rumors and drive her away. We still can’t find my daughter. Marshal, you have to do us justice.”

The family had tears in their eyes; they looked very pitiful.

“That’s not true. We didn’t. She gave up that job herself, and we paid her.”

Kang Qiqi didn't know how Qi Bowen helped her find a job, but Qi Bowen said he paid her.

"What money? We didn't see it. Besides, this is forced buying and selling. You're buying and selling jobs privately. We're going to sue you."

The family watched as the Kang family jumped even higher. They hadn't seen a single penny, and after going to the family compound several times without being able to say anything, they were kicked out.

This time, someone came to them, saying that the old marshal would help them and even sent a car to pick them up.

When they arrived at the military compound, their legs went weak with fear. But the people who brought them told them to make a scene as soon as they arrived, and the old marshal would definitely help them.

They weren't fools; they could guess immediately that this was the old marshal's intention. It seemed the Kang family had offended someone even more powerful.

"Is that so? Xiao Liu, go and investigate and see what's going on. Although Qi Bowen has nothing to do with my Li family anymore, if he really did something wrong, we don't need to consider my feelings. We should do whatever we need to do."

The old marshal said something to Xiao Liu at the door, implying that, in the eyes of outsiders, Qi Bowen, the grandson he had raised for over twenty years, no longer needed to be considered for his sake.

The Kang family, who were divorced and had no connection to each other to begin with, felt the same way.

"Old Marshal, you can't do this! We didn't do any business; it was someone's own choice." Kang Qiqi panicked. If this wasn't handled properly, she could end up in jail.

She wasn't afraid of being unknown; as long as she had the confidence, she could still find a good family. But if she went to jail, her life would be ruined.

She understood; the Li family had been prepared and waiting for them all along, and her father and uncle's jobs weren't just for show.

They definitely can't keep it anymore. Not only will they not get any benefits, but they'll also have to give it all back.

"You can talk to the union and the disciplinary office about it." Open trade is not allowed now, no matter what kind of trade it is.

This kind of thing, which is out in the open, is easy to investigate and will be proven right away. It's a small matter for the Li family, but the Kang family can't afford it.

"Xiao Liu, take them to the Discipline Inspection Office, explain the situation here, and tell them not to worry about me and to do what they need to do."

"Once this matter is resolved, if you want anything else, come and talk to me. Or if you feel that Comrade Kang has taken good care of me all these years and want compensation, that's fine too."

After Marshal Li finished speaking, the Kang family members turned ashen-faced. They were still demanding compensation; they probably wouldn't even be able to stay in Beijing anymore.

They did it on purpose, watching them cause trouble and letting them get to this point step by step.

They didn't get any benefits, lost their reputation, lost their jobs, and now it seems they've completely offended people. This whole job-selling incident alone is enough to cause their family a lot of trouble.

"Old Marshal, we were wrong, please forgive us. We won't cause any more trouble, and we will definitely stay far away from your home from now on."

"Please, for the sake of my grandmother's hard work over the years, can you please be lenient?" Kang Qiqi cried, but this time it wasn't a fake cry of pitifulness; she was genuinely devastated.

"Old Marshal, I am willing to get a divorce. I don't want anything. I admit that I had ulterior motives. I was greedy for pleasure and wanted Qiqi to enter the Li family."

"And about Comrade Su, I can't stand her. I apologize to her. I'll do anything you ask, just please let us go. We'll go back to our hometown and never come back."

Grandma Kang panicked and said she shouldn't have come to cause trouble; the old marshal and Qi Feng were not simple people.

Qiqi said that as long as they insisted on the surname Su, the old marshal would agree to their request for the sake of his granddaughter-in-law's reputation.

They said those things were just empty words to the Li family, but now, they've dug a pit for them to jump into.

“Every country has its laws, and every family has its rules. It’s not that I’m letting you off the hook, it’s that the people are willing to let you off the hook. If you have any grievances, tell the people.”

Marshal Li nodded to the guards at the door, and people from the Armed Forces Department, the Public Security Department, and the military walked in in a line.

Without giving the Kang family a chance to speak again, they dragged them out.

Those who were watching the spectacle realized that the Li family had deliberately shown them this.

The scene of the Kang family making a scene, how they eventually broke off all ties, and all the other things that happened within the Kang family—one thing after another—was incredibly entertaining.

Only after everything was exposed, and the Kang family had no way out and were about to cause a huge scene, did they finally unleash their killing move. It was truly a trap at every step!

Seeing the Kang family members being taken away, and then looking at the Li family members sitting calmly in the house, the group finally realized what was happening.

They truly are a perfect match; from the oldest to the youngest, their cooperation is seamless.

"Old Marshal, it's getting late, we should head back now." The onlookers felt they should leave.

As for what to say when they go out, they know exactly what to say.
