Chapter 460 The Division Commander's Wife
The next few days were peaceful and uneventful.
Mrs. Huo gradually forgot about the incident. Sometimes she would say to Shen Zhixia, "That person is really immoral, but there's nothing she can do to us. It should be fine."
These past few days, Huo Chenzhou has managed to find out the young woman's identity. The young woman herself doesn't have any special status, but she has an uncle who is quite remarkable. He's a businessman who started by selling toys and later became the biggest toy merchant in the area.
He was just a toy seller, nothing special, but he had connections with officials and businessmen there, and he was influential in the local area. Nobody dared to mess with him.
Moreover, they had caused a lot of trouble before. A few years ago, they deliberately tried to seize someone else's land, and he accidentally blinded the other person in one eye. He should have been sentenced, but in the end, he only had to pay some money and that was the end of it. So no one dared to offend him.
In short, that man was notorious for his evil deeds and had a terrible reputation in the area, but no one dared to mess with him.
Shen Zhixia nodded thoughtfully. She felt that this was an undeserved disaster. They hadn't done anything wrong, but they had gotten themselves into this mess.
In short, it's best to keep your distance from this kind of person.
But Shen Zhixia felt that this person wouldn't just give up so easily.
Sure enough, one day when she went out to buy groceries with Huo's mother, a jeep stopped in front of them. Two men in black got out and said, "Our boss wants to see you. Come with us."
Is this the mafia?
Or did they start kidnapping people in broad daylight?
Shen Zhixia turned to leave, and Huo's mother also tried to run away, but they were forcibly taken into the car.
Mrs. Huo was extremely angry: "What exactly are you trying to do? Don't you know that what you're doing is illegal?"
She was usually kind and had never offended anyone. The only thing she had was a grudge against that young woman, and it was always that young woman who insisted on clinging to her.
She angrily retorted, "It was clearly her own fault for getting off the bus illegally, and her mother died trying to save her. She insisted on courting death and got bitten by a tiger. What does this have to do with us? Why is she coming after us? Huh?"
The man in black simply said, "You can talk to our boss about these things. We're just there to work."
Mrs. Huo said, "This is kidnapping. Release me and my daughter-in-law now, or I'll never forgive you."
She was really angry. She had initially thought these people were kidnapping them and were going to take them to some remote mountain forest to take revenge. She was quite worried.
But in the end, they were taken to a guesthouse, which was very clean.
They were pushed inside.
There was a man sitting inside.
The man looked quite old, but he was very spry, and he even said with great poise, "Please sit down."
It was as if Shen Zhixia and Huo's mother weren't kidnapped by him, but rather invited here for a vacation.
The door was knocked open.
A young woman walked in.
The man asked, "Is it them?"
When the young woman saw them clearly, she said maliciously, "Yes, Uncle, it was them. They're the ones who killed me and my mother. You must torture them severely!"
Her uncle is really amazing; he managed to kidnap her so quickly.
She was going to punish them severely.
Her uncle laughed and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? I'm a reasonable person, I wouldn't do anything reckless."
The young woman knew her uncle's methods, so she kept quiet, but her eyes were still excitedly watching Shen Zhixia and Huo's mother.
At this moment, her uncle said, "I've learned more about this matter. I heard you have two children, right? You two should sign this paper. If you don't sign, then..."
He approached Shen Zhixia and Huo's mother, his voice threatening: "Then I'll kill your children. Your two children are quite cute, you wouldn't want them to just disappear like that, would you?"
Mrs. Huo's eyes widened; she hadn't expected there to be such a lawless person.
"This is a society governed by law, how dare you do this?"
Her chest heaved with anger, and her eyes blazed with fury.
This was the first time in her entire life she had been threatened like this. If it were just a threat to her, that would be one thing, but to threaten her with her child was an even bigger threat.
She loves Da Bao and Xiao Bao very much and will not tolerate anyone bullying them like this.
The young woman snorted: "Do you know who my uncle is? He's the law here. If he wanted to deal with commoners like you, it would be too easy for him."
She looked at Shen Zhixia with disdain: "You were born in the mud, and you're all destined to be trampled underfoot. That's your fate. People as lowly as you have no value. Why wasn't it you who died, but my mother?"
As she spoke, her eyes turned venomous again.
Shen Zhixia: "..."
She never expected to hear such words again.
Even after the Qing Dynasty collapsed, there are still people who think they were born noble.
That's really outrageous.
Her uncle finally said, "Sign it!"
Shen Zhixia then began to look at the paper. The paper was covered with writing, which basically meant that the whole thing was their fault, that they were the ones who pushed the young woman off the car, and that they should confess.
If they sign the papers, it will be equivalent to a confession.
In this day and age, it's unbelievable that something like this still happens, especially to her. It shows how arrogant this young woman is.
Shen Zhixia said, "I will not sign. You are forcing me to confess."
Her uncle said slowly, "You all know my methods. I can bring them here today without anyone noticing, so I can treat your child like this tomorrow."
Mrs. Huo said urgently, "You dare to touch my grandchildren! My son will not let you get away with this. Do you know who my son is?"
The young woman's uncle then noticed Huo's mother, and he said thoughtfully, "Does your son have a status?"
He asked the young woman again, and she said that the two were ordinary people with no special status.
Huo's mother said, "My son is a division commander in the army."
Upon hearing this, the young woman's uncle frowned, his expression turning somewhat unpleasant.
He's in business, so he generally doesn't mess with people in power, especially since the teachers and officers wield considerable power.
Not only could he not offend them, he also needed to curry favor with them. In fact, he had wanted to curry favor with his teacher, but since the teacher was said to be an incorruptible person, he had never been able to find a way to do so.
The young woman became anxious: "It's fake, it must be fake. They're dressed so plainly, they couldn't possibly have any connection with the teacher."
