Zhao Wei was not afraid of their threats at all. Instead of stopping, he acted decisively and found the remaining half of the fish on the wall of the kitchen in the fastest time.
He also took a look at the big iron pot.
There was a large pot of fish porridge left over from the meal.
If we have to find more evidence, it would be the pile of fish bones on the table that they had not had time to clean.
After the old man and the old lady had eaten and drunk their fill, they were said to have gone to the small hill outside the village to join Old Zhou in watching the cows grazing.
At this time, there were only the mother and son in the house.
As soon as Zhao Wei's hand touched the fish piece, Liu Qian rushed forward to grab it anxiously.
"Put it down quickly, that's what we eat, you are not allowed to touch it."
Zhao Wei pushed it open with his hand, took the fish out, and then looked at Liu Qian coldly.
"How come you are the one who stole at night? Ha, you are really good. Bullying the most honest and weak family in the village, don't you feel very accomplished?"
"You are a scholar, you really bring honor to our Zhao family!"
Liu Qian's face turned blue and purple, and the shouting he had just made stopped.
But Zhao Nan was different. She had lost her job, her hopes, and could not bear the hardship of living in the countryside. Now she acted like a shrew, making unreasonable demands.
"Which eye did you see that it was my son who did it? You are just accusing others without any evidence. Even if you are the president, you can't act so casually."
"Humph! With our family background, what kind of delicious food don't we have? You clearly look down on us."
"As an elder, I order you to apologize to my son immediately and release our fish. Otherwise, your tenure as president will be over."
Although she is nothing now, she has the ability to make Zhao Wei nothing.
After all, there are many people who want to take Zhao Wei's position. As long as she interferes, Zhao Wei will have no good life.
Zhao Wei stared at the sky fiercely for a few seconds before turning his gaze to Zhao Nan.
"You won't cry until you see the coffin. Are you determined to ruin your cousin's future?"
"I'm giving you one last chance to confess. If you can tell the truth, this matter will stop in this yard and no one will spread it."
"But if you insist on making things difficult for me, then don't blame me for being ruthless and directly making the truth public."
"Then my cousin will be infamous and will be branded as a thief. Think about it for yourselves. I will only give you three minutes."
Zhao Wei's coercion made Zhao Nan so angry that she gritted her teeth, but she could do nothing about it. She could only grab Liu Qian's ear and drag him to a corner, and the mother and son started biting each other's ears.
"Xiao Qian, tell mom, this fish wasn't given to you by anyone. Did you steal it last night?"
Liu Qian was already a little scared at this time. No matter where he was, being caught stealing was a big deal.
When I was in school, if someone was caught stealing, the consequences would be very serious and he might even be beaten to death.
In this countryside, there are probably even worse things.
"Mom, please help me and ask my cousin to let me go. I just want to eat fish..."
He could no longer hide it and told everything he had done.
Zhao Nan was angry and scared, and couldn't help but hit Liu Qian.
As a mother, she knows how to control her hands when hitting people and won't really hurt anyone.
But if you let someone else do the beating, you can’t tell how it will turn out.
The whip wounds on Liu Qian's body had just healed a little, but after being slapped several times, it hurt terribly.
After seeing this, what else is there for Huangmao to not understand?
"Tsk tsk... I didn't expect it to be your cousin. He's so good-looking and a scholar, but how could he act so dirty? Sigh..."
Zhao Wei said to the two of them, "This matter is also my fault for not supervising properly. It caused the village to suffer losses. I brought the wolf into the village."
"I will compensate Liu Qian for what he did. You can go to my house and get 30 kilograms of fish as compensation for the victim!"
"As for the murderer, since he is a minor, let's give him another chance to reform. If Liu Qian continues to behave like this, I will personally kick him back to the city and will never let him come back."
Zhao Wei didn't think about keeping this matter secret.
It's something that can't be covered up at all.
Moreover, the more you cover up, the more likely you are to be criticized.
It would be better to admit it generously at the beginning and let everyone give Liu Qian a chance.
When Zhao Nan had almost finished beating the guys, he saw that Huangmao and Erxiao were gone.
It felt weird that there were only three of them in the yard.
"Zhao Wei, I know that Xiaoqian didn't do a very good thing, but he is just a child. How could he have done anything wrong? You are a magnanimous person. Just keep it to yourself and don't let anyone poke his spine..."
Zhao Wei checked the time and said, "Aunt, I gave you three minutes, but you kept chasing after my cousin and beating him for five or six minutes without stopping. So, Huang Mao and the others have already returned to the village and explained the matter to the villagers."
"What? You actually exposed the truth so quickly, you are such a beast! If you ruin Xiaoqian's future, I will fight you!"
Zhao Nan really wanted to kill Zhao Wei, his eyes turned red.
What a pity, her little ability is really not worth mentioning.
"It was your own choice. Since you were unwilling to confess the theft to me, I can only say I'm sorry."
At this time, several militiamen broke in and arrested Liu Qian directly.
"Let's go and let the people in the village decide the sentence for my cousin. As the head of the community, I naturally have to obey the will of the villagers."
Liu Qian was dragged away mercilessly, crying and screaming loudly.
But Zhao Nan couldn't follow him anymore, so Zhao Wei stretched out his hand and stopped him.
"What else do you want to do? Get out of the way!"
Zhao Nan wished he could take a steel knife and chop off Zhao Wei's arms.
"Aunt, why are you so angry here? Your cousin has been spoiled by you. If you don't send him in to suffer a little, he will never grow up."
"Besides, I can assure you that the villagers are unlikely to make things difficult for him because he is my cousin."
At most, he would suffer a little and be thrown some sour, smelly and rotten things like feces and urine to humiliate Liu Qian's fragile self-esteem.
This is what he deserves, but it is not what Zhao Nan wants.
She just wants an obedient son who can achieve something.
Seeing Zhao Nan's hysterical look, Zhao Wei had no choice but to drop a bombshell and divert the firepower.
