Chapter 49 Sending the Son Out
The police officer tapped the table coldly and said, "That child is only four years old. Tell me, did you push him?"
These words left Xu's mother speechless.
She did push the person, but that sounds so familiar.
Just like last year, the police officers treated the Liu family the same way, asking if the people were beaten by the Liu family. Why are they now asking the Xu family the same question?
They were perfectly innocent!
Zhao Fengxiu breathed a sigh of relief. She had guessed correctly. Last year, the police officers had only said that the Xu family was pitiful on humanitarian grounds, but they still asked the Liu family to spend 680 yuan.
Now that the Xu family's extortion and the incident of pushing Lin Jingyi's son have been confirmed, even if the King of Heaven himself came, he couldn't protect this despicable Xu couple!
The police officers also disliked troublemakers the most. After confirming the Xu family's actions, they then worked with Zhao Fengxiu to determine how much the Liu family's reputation was worth.
Just then, Zhao Fengxiu brought the account books with her when she arrived, and they came in handy at that moment!
After all, the trouble was caused by Liu Jiancheng and Liu Jiangong, so they could only stand by and wait obediently.
If they had stopped the damage by taking Xu Chunhai to the hospital after beating him last year, or if they hadn't attacked him again, perhaps there wouldn't have been any compensation issue.
Their biggest mistake was that they beat him half to death instead of killing him.
This gave the Xu family an opportunity to take advantage of the situation.
Zhao Fengxiu would occasionally cast cold glances at them, and they dared not face her.
The police officer's words shocked Xu's parents.
Xu's mother was sobbing uncontrollably and was on the verge of fainting!
But the police gave them no chance. After calculating the Liu family's reputation, they determined that the Xu family had to pay the Liu family a total of three sums of money.
One sum of money, extortion;
One stroke, the one that Lin Jingyi's son injured;
One item, the reputation of Liu's oil pressing shop, a total of three items.
The extortion is worth 300 yuan, the injury is worth 380 yuan, and the reputation is also worth 300 yuan, so it's a total of 1,000 yuan!
In addition, the Xu family also provoked trouble and took the initiative to provoke civil disputes, which constitutes malicious disturbance. They will be detained for ten days to half a month!
If they don't pay compensation in time, the Xu couple will still be detained even after their detention period expires!
Xu's mother fainted on the spot and fell unconscious in the lock chair.
As the only free man, Xu Chunhai was asked by his police colleagues to raise money. If he couldn't raise enough, they would raid his family's thatched hut on the due date!
...
When Xu Chunhai left the police station, he slunk away.
Whether they actually went to raise money or not, the Xu couple are now locked up and can't get out.
Zhao Fengxiu and Lin Jingyi returned to the county hospital. When they arrived, Liu Jiancheng and Liu Chengyu were laughing and joking around.
This scene terrified Lin Jingyi!
"What are you doing?" Lin Jingyi came over and pushed Liu Jiancheng aside, anxiously checking on Liu Chengyu's condition.
She thought Liu Jiancheng was bullying her son Liu Chengyu, but at first glance, he was grinning and seemed perfectly fine!
Lin Jingyi was stunned. "Chengyu, what happened?"
Liu Chengyu smiled, opened his arms for a hug, and asked, "Mom, are you done with your work?"
Seeing Liu Chengyu looking calm and without the pain he had experienced during the doctor's examination, she was dumbfounded.
"Weren't you feeling unwell earlier? What's wrong with you now? Don't scare your mother!" Lin Jingyi quickly checked Liu Chengyu's body and found that he was indeed fine.
But he kept saying he felt unwell here and there, and he even got his medical records and was registered at the hospital.
Upon reflection, Lin Jingyi realized that Liu Chengyu had been deceiving her, and slapped his butt!
In the ward, Liu Chengyu burst into tears.
Liu Chengyu explained, “Waaah! Mom, I didn’t lie to you. It was Grandma who said it! She said you were being bullied and if you didn’t do this, they would beat you to death. For Mom’s sake, I had no choice but to obey.”
Lin Jingyi was stunned by the words.
The way she looked at Zhao Fengxiu was somewhat unfathomable.
How did Mom know that the Xu family was so despicable as to fake illness, and that they even made Liu Chengyu fake illness as well?
Although she felt a little taboo about it, Lin Jingyi chuckled and thanked Zhao Fengxiu, saying, "Mom, thank you." She was thinking about the potential financial compensation.
"You're very farsighted. But now that the medical records are in and the hospital fees have been paid, what can we do?"
Zhao Fengxiu glared at them.
"Does paying money mean you have to stay? Just consider it as staying for one day. If you don't pay later, you can just say you don't want to renew, right? The doctor won't treat you if you don't pay!"
Once we get the money, whether or not we get treatment is still up to us.
What are you two idiots standing there for? Hurry up and help your sister-in-law get ready! Aren't you ashamed?
Lin Jingyi took the child and went to make arrangements, continuing to pretend that she would revert to normal once the stay was cancelled.
Liu Jiancheng and Liu Jiangong quickly helped pack their things, and the group rushed back to town.
...
When Liu Shiping saw them return, he put down what he was holding without tidying up, wiped his hands, and came over to greet them!
"How did it go? Was everything taken care of? Is the child alright?"
He saw Liu Chengyu sleeping peacefully in Lin Jingyi's arms, and he understood what had happened.
Liu Shiping then looked at Zhao Fengxiu, "You didn't give the Xu family any money, did you?"
Liu Shiping's questioning look displeased Zhao Fengxiu. "Do you look down on my abilities? You'll find out tomorrow when you see the notice."
Look at the mess your two sons have made! Aren't you going to have to clean up their messes and pay for it? Then go to the police station and pay them!
Not even a fart! Are we going to stop doing business here? Are we going to split up?
Liu Shiping was stunned and ashamed after being scolded so harshly.
"I'm sorry, honey, it's all my fault."
After apologizing, Liu Shiping stepped forward and kicked Liu Jiancheng and Liu Jiangong once each, saying, "Why aren't you two putting your things back inside the stall?"
Zhao Fengxiu coldly stopped them, "Stop packing, just pack your own things and get out of the house!"
"No household bills next month either. This house can't tolerate two spendthrifts like you; you'll cause big trouble sooner or later!"
Liu Jiancheng hung his head, speechless, and stood there motionless.
Liu Jiangong mustered his courage and said, "Mom, it's clearly Xu Chunhai's fault! He provoked us first. The police only made us pay compensation because his family was pitiful. They also remembered the good things our family had done for us. We had no grudge against him!"
My fourth brother and I went to meet Sister Mengfei, but he got jealous and tried to stop us, which caused the conflict. It wasn't our fault last year!
Wasn't this year also the Xu family's fault? It wasn't entirely our fault!
Liu Jiancheng quickly tugged at Liu Jiangong, signaling him to stop talking.
Mom's furious right now. She says whoever's wrong is wrong! The more you talk, the angrier Mom gets. It's best to just pretend you're invisible and let it pass.
But having already said it, Zhao Fengxiu gave a shy laugh.
"If it's not your fault, is it mine? If you lose, you'll be hospitalized; if you win, you'll go to jail!"
If you're going to fight, go all out! Why are you still giving him a break? And now I have to pay you 680 yuan in compensation? Just thinking about it makes my mouth ache!
I've shown you both love and hate, yelled at you and scolded you. There's nothing more to say. Consider you two a waste of my time; you're utterly useless today!
Stop dawdling and get your bags packed!
