Chapter 179 Divorce Assistance (5)
Liu Zhaodi's heart skipped a beat. Even though she was afraid, she still took a step forward and replied, "It's me, police comrade. What's the matter? I'm a good citizen and I haven't done anything wrong. Did you go to the wrong place?"
"Yes, Jiandang, you can come by yourself. Why did you bring the police with you?" Li looked at Ruan Jiandang with disapproval, thinking that he was here to take Liu Zhaodi back.
But Ruan Jiandang didn't look at them. His eyes were cast forward without purpose, as if he had decided not to argue with them from the beginning.
"You didn't do anything wrong?" The tall and thin policeman sneered and pointed at Ruan Jiandang on the side: "This gentleman accused you of stealing money and meat from the family. Because the amount is huge, please go to the police station with us."
"What money did you steal?" Li glared at him, and the man ran up and pulled Liu Zhaodi's ear and scolded: "You dead girl, didn't you say yesterday that you didn't get anything? It seems that you are hiding it from your mother? Tell me, where is the money? Where is the meat? Take it out quickly!"
Li thought the police were talking about Liu Zhaodi stealing meat from Ruan's house yesterday.
She knew that this dead girl was an ungrateful person who would never be fed, and she actually stole the money and didn't give it out!
"Mom!" Liu Zhaodi cried out in pain, and was dragged back several steps by Li, almost falling down. She explained anxiously: "I didn't, I ran into Chizi when I went there yesterday, and I didn't get anything, really, I didn't lie to you!"
"Really?" Li still didn't believe it, staring.
Liu Zhaodi nodded heavily, tears of pain came out.
"Okay, why did you beat her? If you want to make trouble, don't you pay attention to the time? Don't you see that the police comrades are still here?" Liu Xinmin scolded, and then smiled at the police in a flattering way, and pulled Ruan Jiandang to go to the corner, but Ruan Jiandang didn't move, so he could only speak in a low voice helplessly.
"Jiandang, if there is anything, just talk about it behind closed doors as a family. Why call the police? Come on, let the police go first." He pulled Ruan Jiandang's arm and said with concern for him, "It's not a matter between husband and wife, and it will be embarrassing if the neighbors see it if we call the police."
Ruan Jiandang glanced at him and finally spoke, "This is not a matter between husband and wife. She and I are getting a divorce, and she has to return all the money she got from your Liu family. As for the money before, I can ignore it, even if it's just to show my filial piety to you two, but she must return the money she recently used to buy a car for Liu Laifu, otherwise I will sue your Liu family!"
"Are you crazy?!" Liu Zhaodi heard this and stared at him in disbelief: "Ruan Jiandang, are you still a human being? You actually called the police to arrest me? For such a small amount of money? Are you crazy?"
Li also frowned, with a domineering and unreasonable expression: "That is my daughter's money. It is ours after you gave it to us. Why should you give it back? No!"
She became more and more righteous when she said this, and rolled her eyes: "Besides, you said that the previous one was a gift to us, so what's wrong with giving us one more gift now?"
"That's not just a small amount of money." The tall and thin policeman looked at the whole family with a half-smile, and his tone was quite serious: "According to Mr. Ruan's account, you took 40 kilograms of meat back to the Liu family last month, which is worth 40 or 50 yuan according to the market value. In addition, you also gave your brother money to buy a car, which is also worth 100 or 200 yuan. The total amount is as high as more than 200 yuan, which has constituted a criminal case. If you don't pay back the money, you can be arrested according to the law."
