When the police car arrived, the men saw that Old Mrs. Ma could no longer bear the beating and agreed.
They then boldly testified against Old Lady Ma.
Seeing that everyone had finished speaking, Old Lady Ma recorded their statements and had them sign and seal their accounts.
He then said that Zhao Youcai had committed murder, bribed several people to give false testimony, fabricated the scene, and attacked him.
The comrades handling the case were incredulous:
"These are your spouse, son, daughter-in-law, and daughter. Did they team up to frame you?"
Old Ma's voice trembled:
"They only care about money and they said I should stay in prison for my retirement."
Everyone was dumbfounded and looked at Old Lady Ma as if she were an enemy.
"How can there be such a cruel mother like you in this world?
You're harming your own child like this."
"We will no longer recognize you as our mother, and your grandchildren will not recognize you either."
"You old woman, no one will take care of you in your old age. Just wait to starve to death on the streets."
In the end, all of them were detained for giving false testimony and were awaiting further sentencing. They were also required to compensate Mrs. Ma.
Zhao Youcai's circumstances were even more serious, and he was punished for multiple crimes. Li Shulan and the deceased's son came and demanded severe punishment.
Zhao Youcai panicked: "I am your biological father."
Li Shulan's son laughed and said, "How could you be my biological father? It's just an excuse for my mother to cheat you out of your money."
Zhao Youcai looked at Li Shulan angrily, but Li Shulan turned her head away and didn't dare to look at him.

Old Mrs. Ma walked out of the police station amid Zhao Youcai's angry howling and her children's curses.
The eldest son Zhao Xingguo and his granddaughter (born to the third son Zhao Xingmin) rushed over after hearing the news.
The two said they would take her in to live with her in her old age.
She sobbed.
She felt sorry for the eldest and third brothers and didn't dare to contact them over the years.
The eldest son, Zhao Xingguo, and the second son, Zhao Xingjia, are twins.
Because the second child was weak when he was born and she was always worried that she wouldn't be able to raise him, she felt even more sorry for him.
At that time, the family could only afford one job, which was given to the second son, and the eldest son was sent to the countryside, where he became disabled.
The second son's wife threatened to divorce the eldest daughter and took away her job, so the eldest daughter had no choice but to go to the countryside.
The country man that the eldest daughter married was patriarchal and beat and scolded the eldest daughter and granddaughter. Later, when he had a son with the widow, he drove them out of the house.
Later, the second son neglected his duties at work and burned down the warehouse, requiring a lot of money for compensation.
He also allowed his mother-in-law to marry his eldest daughter and granddaughter to another scumbag who drank and beat his wife all day long, just because he needed a high bride price for emergency.
The eldest daughter had a hard life. Even though she later escaped from the quagmire, her health was broken and she passed away early.
The second son, Zhao Yang, joined the eldest son's company at her request, and eventually ruined the company.
She knelt down and begged the boss to let Zhao Yang go, otherwise Zhao Yang would have to go to jail.
The eldest brother and his wife took it on themselves and are still paying off the debt.
Unexpectedly, they were willing to support her in her old age.
Old Mrs. Ma felt extremely guilty.
Zhao Yang, who was hiding in the dark, secretly hated this old man. It was because of him that his parents were about to go to jail and he was divorced again.
He found the right opportunity and walked towards Old Mrs. Ma with the fruit knife in his arms.
Old Mrs. Ma looked at her grandson with a ferocious face, shouting at her to die, and she felt really hateful in her heart.
Hate her for being blind and heartless.
I hate that she spent her whole life raising so many ungrateful people.

"Mom, I'll give my job to my second sister-in-law. Can I not marry her stupid brother? I'll go to the countryside."
Old Mrs. Ma, whose full name is Ma Xiulan, was stunned for a moment when she heard the crying voice of the third son, Zhao Xingmin.
Isn't she dead?
She blinked in disbelief, pinched her thigh, and took a breath in pain. She actually came back to life.
She looked at the calendar on the wall. It was October 9, 1977.
Ma Xiulan knew what was going on.
In the summer of 1977, the eldest daughter Xingmin helped a pregnant woman on the road.
And the pregnant woman turned out to be the wife of Director Song from the supply and marketing cooperative.
To express their gratitude, Director Song and his wife arranged a job for Xingmin at the supply and marketing cooperative counter.
The second son's wife, Chen Zhenzhen, was very jealous of Xingmin's easy and respectable job.
But later Director Song and his wife introduced a good marriage to Xingmin. Chen Zhenzhen didn't want to offend Zhao Xingmin's future in-laws, so she gave up.
Unexpectedly, something was lost in the second brother's room a few days ago.
There were only three people at home at the time: the paralyzed grandmother-in-law, Mrs. Wang, her 5-year-old grandson Zhao Yang, and Xingmin.
Both Old Lady Wang and Zhao Yang said that Xingmin stole it.
Chen Zhenzhen demanded that Xingmin compensate her for her job at the supply and marketing cooperative, otherwise she would report him to the police and have him arrested.
Xingmin insisted that she didn't steal, but with the facts before her, she didn't believe her.
After all, those things were lost: scarves, hairbands, lipsticks, and facial oils.
They are all liked by little girls.
Moreover, neither Old Lady Wang, who has been paralyzed for 10 years, nor Zhao Yang, a naughty 5-year-old boy, seems like the type of person who could steal these things.
When Chen Zhenzhen saw that Xingmin refused to give her a job, she immediately returned to her parents' home and spread the news of Xingmin stealing throughout the compound.
The next morning, the man that Director Song's wife introduced to Xingmin, Song Qinghe, the youngest son of the Song family, came to the house and said that he didn't dare to marry a daughter-in-law who stole things from the house.
He wants to change his marriage partner to the fifth brother, Zhao Xingfeng.
At the same time at noon, news came from Chen Zhenzhen.
In addition to asking Xingmin to give her his job as an apology, she also asked Xingmin to marry her younger brother Chen Baoshun, otherwise she would divorce the second brother.
