In the past few days, Lawyer Zhang has been constantly using the identity of Tong Chengsheng's "cousin" to collect evidence in the community where Tong's family lives. Finally, he sent lawyer's letters to a dozen people who spread the rumors more vigorously, and then sent court summonses to three people who maliciously slandered Tong Hua and spread rumors about her.
The residents of the community who received these things were panicked. They didn't expect the Tong family to do this.
Some timid people panicked when they saw the lawyer's letter posted on their door.
He quickly went to Tong's house and apologized. Tong Chengsheng also accepted the apology in the spirit of peace and harmony.
Only a few people who received the lawyer's letter not only did not think they were wrong, but instead joined forces with other people in the community who also received the lawyer's letter, and came to the Tong family angrily, demanding that the Tong family give them an explanation.
When they arrived, Zhang Guiying had never seen such a scene before. She was so scared that she quickly hid in her bedroom and didn't dare to come out.
Tong Chengsheng was also a little scared, but Lawyer Zhang beside him comforted Tong Chengsheng calmly.
"Cousin, don't worry, I have a way to deal with them."
In Lawyer Zhang's eyes, these were all small scenes, he had seen many of them, and he was well prepared.
Looking at the group of people who broke into their house, Tong Chengsheng tried to maintain peace: "Everyone, please take a seat."
"Why are you sitting here? We didn't come here today just to chat with you!"
"That's right, you must give us an explanation today!"
Uncle Zhang from the next door unit held a lawyer's letter in his hand and shouted in a loud voice, "Old Tong, what do you mean? We're usually so harmonious, and you actually want to sue us?"
At this moment, Lawyer Zhang pulled out a loud speaker from somewhere and spoke into it, "Everyone, please listen quietly. The lawyer's letter you received is just a reminder to be careful with your words. It has no legal effect. Rest assured, this letter will not infringe on your interests in the slightest."
After hearing that they would not be sued after receiving the lawyer's letter, some of them quieted down, but some were still not convinced. They felt that they had just said some things about Tong Chengsheng's daughter, and Tong Chengsheng actually sent them a lawyer's letter. This obviously hurt their face, and they clamored for Tong Chengsheng to apologize.
"We all live in the same neighborhood. We were just chatting and joking. Tong Chengsheng, you're too stingy, aren't you?!"
"For so many years, everyone has been harmonious. It's you who has damaged the harmony between neighbors. You need to stand up and apologize to everyone!"
"Yes! Apologize!"
Lawyer Zhang looked around and said, "I see that everyone is already parents. Let me ask you, if something happened to your daughter one day and she was slandered and slandered by others, and couldn't even return home, how would you feel? Sending a lawyer's letter to everyone is a helpless move. After all, there are too many people in the community talking about this matter, and the public opinion is unstoppable. We have no choice but to resort to this last resort. In fact, we don't want to offend so many people at once."
Lawyer Zhang's words were very contagious, and some sentimental aunts shed tears on the spot. After all, they did have a daughter and a granddaughter. Although Tong Chengsheng's letter of attorney was a bit unkind, they did not take into account
The Tong family treated this matter as a pastime after dinner.
Some people left there feeling guilty.
After they left, one of them said, "There are so many of us now, and they only have two people. What are we afraid of? Let's just go up and beat them up and vent our anger!"
Lawyer Zhang had anticipated this scenario. He held up a megaphone and declared, "I urge you to reconsider. Several cameras were installed before you arrived. These cameras are directly connected to the police station. As soon as you start beating someone, the police will come and arrest you. Please think clearly. You haven't committed any crime, but if you hit someone, that's a crime! And you could end up in jail!"
After hearing what Lawyer Zhang said, they all looked around the Tong family's house and saw cameras on the four ceilings. Now some people were completely worried. What if they beat someone up and implicated them? They didn't want to go to jail.
This time most of the people left, leaving only three people.
Lawyer Zhang took a look and realized that these three people were the ones who had just hidden in the crowd and secretly incited other residents in the community. They were most likely the three people who received court summons. After all, they were prosecuted and would have to go to jail in the future based on the crimes they committed.
Seeing that everyone else had left and only the three of them were left, they looked at each other, not knowing what to do.
Lawyer Zhang put down the loud speaker and said to them seriously, "You are the three people who were prosecuted, right?"
Tong Chengsheng actually saw a familiar face. His long-time drinking buddy Wu Changgui was also there.
Wu Changgui looked at Tong Chengsheng as if he had found a lifeline. He took a few steps forward and begged Tong Chengsheng, "Old Tong, I'm sorry. I was confused for a moment and believed the rumors. That's why I spoke nonsense. I promise I will never say anything bad about your daughter again. Can you just withdraw the lawsuit?"
Seeing that it was an old acquaintance, Tong Chengsheng hesitated. He looked at Lawyer Zhang beside him, wanting to let the other party go.
Lawyer Zhang said helplessly: "He hurt your daughter, are you sure you want to let him go?"
Tong Chengsheng said hesitantly: "He probably said something bad, but he shouldn't be sent to jail, right?"
Lawyer Zhang said sternly, "I'm sorry, Mr. Tong, you're not my client, so I can't agree with you. Also, I can tell you one thing: these three people being prosecuted are by no means innocent! They've all seriously violated Ms. Tong's reputation. I can show you some evidence."
Lawyer Zhang took out a recorder and heard Wu Changgui's voice.
The recording started out as just him chatting with someone about Tonghua, but then it got increasingly outrageous. He even hinted that Tonghua had a shady job... and that this was because he'd messed with the wrong people... He also said with certainty that he'd seen Tonghua going in and out of some shady places and not coming out until the next morning... Then he even talked about price and other things...
Tong Chengsheng couldn't stand it any longer, so he stepped forward, grabbed Wu Changgui by the collar and was about to beat him up, scaring the two people nearby who wanted to plead for him away.
Lawyer Zhang also hurried forward, standing between the two men, and advised Tong Chengsheng: "Mr. Tong, don't be impulsive. It's not wise to beat him now!"
Tong Chengsheng's eyes were red as he roared, "Don't try to stop me! I'm going to beat this beast to death today!"
Wu Changgui grew up watching Tonghua, and he was half of Tonghua's elder. However, as an elder who knew Tonghua's character very well, he actually secretly slandered his own daughter like this. This made Tong Chengsheng unable to tolerate it at all.
