Chapter 30: More escapees, police enter the village
"What's wrong with that? He's half a member of the Li family. As the eldest brother, I can't even keep him for one night." Uncle Li's smile faded and he angrily said, "Why, do you think that just because he's surnamed Liu, he's no longer a member of my Li family?"
Zheng Dahua immediately shook her head. "No, that's not what I meant. Big brother, you misunderstood. I'm so happy that you guys accepted Daqiang. How could I possibly think that? Okay, I'll listen to you. Let Daqiang stay here for one night."
Having said that, he pulled Qiwen and prepared to leave.
She still has a lot of feelings for the eldest brother of the Li family who just returned from the army.
Li Qiwen wanted to say something, but was stopped by Wang Chunfen, "Let's go. Dad has nothing to worry about at his uncle's house."
"That's right, let's go home." Zheng Dahua was also afraid of bringing bad luck, so she immediately agreed.
Helpless, Li Qiwen had to go back with them.
After the people walked away, Uncle Li stood up with a sober look on his face. "Go, find a hemp rope to tie him up and put him in the woodshed. Remember to put away the knife and cover him with more straw."
As soon as his aura came out, some people who were drunk sobered up immediately.
"yes."
The other side.
Because of Li Baojun's identity, he found his leader again, explained his family situation to him, and asked him to help find out about Liu Shengqiang.
The address is on the remittance slip, and you can find it by just calling the public security bureau or police station there.
After the leader scolded Li Baojun, he immediately picked up the phone to contact the local police station. The police station knew more about this matter than the Public Security Bureau.
But no one expected that Liu Shengqiang would be a fugitive criminal.
This news shocked the leader.
After the leader asked Liu Shengqiang what he had done, he stood up in shock.
This scared Li Baojun and Su Zhongguo a lot.
"Leader, don't scare me." Li Baojun was frightened to death when he saw his leader's nervous look.
Now he is guilty of a crime of association, and he doesn't want his entire village to be in jeopardy because of such a person.
After hanging up the phone, the leader glared at Li Baojun angrily, "You, you, what can I say about you? If things go wrong this time, you will be implicated, alas."
The leader hurriedly told the two what he had just learned on the phone.
After he finished speaking, he took a deep breath and said, "Now, come with me back to the village to arrest the criminals." He didn't expect that Liu Shengqiang would be such a disaster. Not only did he kill and rob, he also set fire to houses. That meant more than one or two people died.
The person from the police station just said that if you see Liu Shengqiang, you can shoot him on the spot, and then confirm his identity after his death.
This shows how serious his crime is.
Even death cannot atone for his sins.
"Boss, there's no rush. My uncle had already apprehended the man when we came out, so we can take him away when we get back. But there's one thing I don't understand. Since Liu Shengqiang used his real name to wire the money, didn't the post office notice?"
"We can still say that we don't know the truth here, but what about over there? How could the person who delivered the letter not know what Liu Shengqiang had done?" Li Baojun wanted to say that Liu Shengqiang was probably a scapegoat, and there might be someone hiding behind him.
The leader was no fool. He immediately understood what he meant. "You're right. So, go get the leader of the action team and I'll call the Public Security Bureau over there."
The leader was also afraid that his previous phone call had alerted the enemy. If it was true as Li Baojun said, there were people behind Liu Shengqiang, and he would be responsible if he let those people escape.
"yes."
Su Zhongguo didn't know whether to go out or sit down, and he was a little at a loss for a moment.
The leader noticed his discomfort, and since he was the one who came with him to report the news, he said, "Just sit here and wait. This matter won't be resolved anytime soon."
Who would have thought that there was something involved behind the scenes? If he had known, he would not have followed. He finally realized that his brother-in-law was quite capable.
He worried for nothing; he might as well stay at home with his wife and children.
"Yes." Since it had come to this, he could only sit down and wait.
After all, he was a person who had committed many evil deeds. Once both sides were alarmed, they immediately started to take action.
Su Zhongguo was unable to go back with them, so he had to sleep in the police station tonight.
Li Baojun brought the leaders and members of the action team into the village to arrest people.
But what no one expected was that not only Liu Shengqiang was arrested, but all the people guarding Li's house tonight were taken back to the town police station.
It was already dawn when Su Zhongguo learned about this.
He slept in the police station for one night and was taken to the cafeteria for breakfast early in the morning, where he saw a group of Li family members in the hall.
Among them, Zheng Dahua was crying and making a fuss in the hall, and threatened that they should release her man, otherwise she would sue them.
If this wasn't enough to calm the situation, she scolded her son and everyone in the Li family, saying that they had harmed her man and couldn't bear to see her family doing well. She also used Li Qiwen to hold a grudge against everyone. Now Uncle Li and his group couldn't stand it anymore.
So, Zheng Dahua was beaten.
When Su Zhongguo came out, they had just been released and Uncle Li was taking the lead in beating Zheng Dahua.
Hearing the crying and shouting, he went forward to check out the situation out of curiosity. He was unable to walk because those were his relatives.
"Comrade Su, Comrade Su, the cafeteria is not over there." The public security comrade who brought Su Zhongguo out saw him running to the hall and immediately chased him and shouted.
"I know, my dad and the others are over there. I'll go over and see what happened." Su Zhongguo replied, then ran over in two or three steps.
He went straight to his father-in-law and asked in confusion, "Dad, why are you here at the police station?"
Father Li felt relieved when he saw Su Zhongguo, so he told him what happened last night. "This is what happened. Your Aunt Li said that we couldn't stand her family's well-being and wanted to kill her husband and make Qiwen hate us. Your uncle couldn't help it, so he took action."
After listening to this, Su Zhongguo curled his lips, but he felt that his uncle fought well.
Although the leader did not specifically tell him about what happened yesterday, he heard it a lot in the office and naturally knew about Liu Daqiang's crime.
I didn’t expect Zheng Dahua to know about it and still defend him so much. It seems that she is really in love.
"Dad, let Qiwen take charge of this matter. If he can't see clearly, there's no need to help such a nephew." Su Zhongguo's voice was not loud, but the elders around him could still hear it.
"That's right, Zhongguo is right. If Qiwen really holds a grudge, then let Earl Xingmin adopt a son for Kaifeng." This was said by Li Guoqiang.
The Xingminbo he mentioned is the current head of the Li family, who is of the same generation as Li’s grandfather.
Because his health was not very good, he rarely went out. The next clan leader had also been chosen, and that was Li Kaizong, Uncle Li.
On weekdays, all the affairs of the Li family are handled by Uncle Li.
Another cousin also spoke up and agreed, "That's right, Seventh Uncle's lineage has quite a lot of descendants. If it really doesn't work out, we can just adopt one. When the time comes, we can all chip in some money. I don't believe we can't raise a child."
The voices of their discussion gradually grew louder, and Zheng Dahua, who was crying on the ground, also heard their voices.
When he saw that they were discussing adopting a child for Kaifeng, he immediately stopped shouting.
She knew that if they really did what they wanted, she and her son would have nowhere to stay and would have nowhere to go except back to her parents' home.
And her son would hate her.
"Qiwen, don't listen to their nonsense. They just can't stand seeing our family doing well. You know how your father treats you. How could he be the bad guy they say he is? They must be jealous of you having a job, so they're harming our family like this."
Even at this time, she is still brainwashing. I really don’t know if she is really stupid or just pretending to be stupid.
Although Li Qiwen was a little confused, after the questioning of the public security comrades and his inquiries last night, he already knew who Liu Daqiang was.
He also knew something that frightened him, that is, Liu Daqiang wanted to harm him.
He hasn't gotten any confirmation yet, but it's easy to tell from his uncles and aunts that Liu Daqiang really wants to harm him.
"Mom, stop talking. What we are waiting for from the public security comrades is whether they will deceive us again." Li Qiwen pulled his wife and took two steps back unintentionally when his mother stood up.
Just these two steps made the Li family look up to him.
At least he's sensible.
Wang Chunfen was particularly uneasy at this time because what the public security comrades asked her was true.
It seems that Liu Daqiang is really not a good person.
"You ungrateful bastard! Your father has raised you for so many years in vain. I will beat you to death, you unfilial son." Zheng Dahua became anxious when she heard this. If her son did not stand on her side, how could she survive in the village?
"Oh my God, come and see how I could have raised such an ungrateful person."
Uncle Li couldn't stand it any longer. "Shut up! If you keep yelling, I'll whip you! Humph, didn't you hear what the police said? Liu Daqiang wants to kill your son. So, in your heart, your son is not as good as a man."
Uncle Li's voice was loud and clear, and he didn't hide his disdain for Zheng Dahua at all. "If you can't bear to leave, just go with him when he goes shooting. I don't think Kaifeng would want you buried next to him after you die. He thinks it's dirty."
There are still public security comrades here, who know something about Lijia Village. This is the main reason why they did not step forward to stop it.
"Bullshit, how can Daqiang harm Qiwen? How can Daqiang not be a good person? If he wasn't a good person, why would he support Qiwen for so many years and find a job for Qiwen?"
Zheng Dahua immediately retorted, "I think it's you peasants who can't stand seeing our family doing well and want to harm us, so you teamed up with outsiders to bully our Daqiang."
As she said this, she was about to howl again, but Uncle Li's gloomy face scared her so much that she dared not howl out loud and could only question.
"Comrade, please don't slander us. We are all fair and honest. The incident involving Liu Daqiang was not reported by us. It was a notice issued by the ** Local Public Security Bureau. If you don't believe it, wait a few days and someone will come to confirm it."
The police in the office were unhappy when they heard her slandering their comrades.
"If you continue to defame us without evidence, we will arrest you and convict you of defamation."
The young comrade had been fed up with this for a long time, and now that he was in his hands, he naturally wouldn't be polite.
Zheng Dahua's eyes turned red with anger, and she wanted to yell and curse like she did in the village, but she was afraid of the clothes on his body.
"Who knows whether what you said is true or not."
The young comrade also laughed in anger. "Whether what I said is true or not is not important. What matters is the decision of the leaders. Don't worry, we will not slander anyone, nor will we let any bad person go."
Having said that, he kept silent. Anyway, if she dared to scold him again, he wouldn't mind letting her stay in there for a few days.
Zheng Dahua, who bullies the weak and fears the strong, didn't dare to cry anymore.
But she still didn't let Li Qiwen go, "You must believe your father. How could he hurt you? Think about how good he has been to you over the years. He's treated you better than I have. How could you bear to let him suffer like this?"
She also regretted that she shouldn't have listened to them last night.
"Mom, let's wait for the police to notify us whether it's true or not. I believe they will make the most fair judgment."
It would have been fine if Li Qiwen didn't say anything, but as soon as he opened his mouth, Zheng Dahua couldn't help but get angry.
"Okay, I knew you were an ungrateful person. You've never been close to me since you were little. When Li Kaifeng was alive, you were close to him, but after he died, you still have to rely on me. I raised you to this age, and this is how you repay me."
It's really good to be in high spirits after cursing.
Su Zhongguo's face was full of disgust.
I don't want to listen to her yelling and cursing anymore. It's annoying. Everything is decided by the state.
"Dad, have you had breakfast?" He was a little hungry, so he might as well take care of his stomach.
"Not yet. She came last night. As soon as we were released, she stopped us there. How could she have time to eat breakfast?" Father Li was also in a bad mood.
I was called over in the middle of the night and didn't even get any sleep. When I came out early in the morning, I was stopped and scolded.
"Let's go and have breakfast. We can't make ourselves suffer for something irrelevant." Su Zhongguo didn't want to wait here.
It would be better to go out for a meal instead of wasting time.
"Well, ask your uncle." Father Li pointed to his eldest brother in front and said to Su Zhongguo.
"good."
Su Zhongguo walked forward and came to his uncle. "Uncle, you haven't had breakfast yet, right? Let's go eat first and come back later."
After speaking to his uncle, Su Zhongguo looked at the public security officer standing nearby and said, "Hello, comrade. Can we leave now?"
The matter has been clarified, and they have nothing to do here. Now Liu Daqiang's identity has to wait for the police over there to come and confirm, so they have nothing to do here.
"You can go now, but you can't leave home. Until Liu Daqiang's problem is resolved, you have to come at any time." The public security comrade smiled at Su Zhongguo because he knew him.
"Is that so? No problem. We're from the countryside and don't have anywhere to go. If you need anything, you can come find us in Lijia Village. I guarantee everyone will be there."
"That's okay, you can go. I know you are Comrade Li Baojun's family." The young comrade was also afraid that his words would cause Su Zhongguo to misunderstand, so he said.
"Yes, I am his brother-in-law. These are his uncles and brothers. The family that got into trouble is his cousin's."
Su Zhongguo didn't hide it and explained directly, "I am his brother-in-law, and that person is our father. If you have any problems, just ask him to take you to the village to find us."
The young comrade nodded and said, "Okay, you guys can go."
Su Zhongguo didn't ask Zheng Dahua. In his eyes, she was not worthy of being a member of the Li family.
Li Qiwen's attitude was unclear at this time. He didn't want to say much. It was a pity for his wife who had suffered a lot with him. For Wang Chunfen's sake, he decided to call them both.
"Qiwen, Qiwen's wife, do you want to come together?"
