Old Man Ma was so angry that his chest heaved and he glared at the old woman.
The old woman came up with an idea, rolled her eyes and fainted.
Old Man Ma took advantage of the situation and said, "You have done such a good thing, but you have to force us to death? Aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning?"
Ma Bomin didn't buy it at all. "If there's going to be a thunderbolt, it'll be you first. Now, since you don't pay me back, then wait for the demon to come to you."
After that, without any more nonsense, he said to Ziyi: "Let's go."
Ziyi nodded, threw down the stick in his hand, and left with Ma Bomin.
Rather than asking them to pay back the money, Ma Bomin would rather put the family in jail so that they could also experience the suffering Xiaomei had endured.
Seeing that Ma Bomin was gone, the team leader came up to the old man Ma and said with a sullen face, "If he asks you to pay back the money, then you pay it back. If he really wants to recruit An, you will have a good life. At the same time, the money you embezzled will not be spent anyway. Not only will you have to pay it back, but you will also have to go to the farm for reform."
Old Man Ma didn't believe that the second son would recruit An. He was his father. How could a son send his father to jail? He was just trying to scare them.
The villagers all think the same way.
No one believed that Ma Bomin would really report to the police and have his parents arrested, as this was a heinous act.
No matter how much a family quarrels, they are still a family after all. If there is any conflict, they should talk it out behind closed doors. There is no need to go to the temple to argue.
Later, when Ma Bomin brought Xiao'an to the village, everyone was dumbfounded.
Ma Bomin actually came for real.
He embezzled money from others for seven days, amounting to thousands of yuan, occupied other people's houses, slandered others for improper conduct without any evidence, and joined forces with villagers to verbally humiliate and bully Ma Xiaomei for a long time, making her miserable to the point that she was almost unable to survive.
Adding up all these things, let alone forced labor, it would be enough to get him imprisoned for ten days.
Old Mrs. Ma was shocked and furious, crying and cursing, "You evil creature, you deserve to be struck by lightning! If I had known you were such an ungrateful person, I should have strangled you to death! I raised you for nothing, and now you want to send me to jail. Are you still a human being?"
Ma Bomin remained unmoved and said to Xi'an, "Please handle this case according to your own judgment and sentence him accordingly."
This was the first time the Xian'ans had seen such a thing: a son suing his own parents, acting as if he was determined to send them to jail or labor camp. It was not bluffing at all.
Things had gotten so out of hand that the captain couldn't stay out of it. He stepped forward and tried to persuade them, "Bomin, I'm not saying there are no perfect parents in the world. Just consider your parents' age and give them a chance to correct their mistakes. They'll definitely treat your wife and children well in the future."
Ma Bomin cast a cold gaze on the captain, his face devoid of any emotion, and asked calmly, "If your wife and children had suffered the same hardships as Xiaomei and the others, would you still say such words?"
The captain opened his mouth, then swallowed back the words that were about to come out.
He couldn't say it.
If his wife and children were bullied like that, their house and money were taken away, and their lives were worse than pigs and dogs, he might just come to their house and chop them down.
