The police officer paused.
Dog Egg nodded, "Yang Ercui always comes to relay the message."
Yang Ercui was dumbfounded by her mother's words and was put in shackles without even realizing it.
Zhong Qingqing breathed a sigh of relief.
"Extortion is a serious crime, punishable by three to five years in prison. Be prepared," the police officer said.
Zhong Qingqing's vision went black, and she was about to faint.
Yang Ercui had already fainted.
She couldn't understand why, as usual, if she and her mother went out and yelled, the village would give Gou Dan more money, and then she would go to Gou Dan's house at night and threaten him, and Huai Yuan would get the money for his work.
Why would she sit on the fence?
"Officers, could you please be lenient with us?"
Huang Zhenwei gave the police a look.
Officer Jiang immediately understood: "If you can get a letter of understanding from the person involved, you won't have to be sent to jail."
Zhong Qingqing: ......
Getting her to give you money is harder than getting her to give you her life.
Qiao Wanyue crossed her arms and watched the family exchanging glances.
It was expected that Zhong Qingqing would use Yang Ercui as a shield. Yang Dacui was her darling, while Yang Sancui was already married. Only the honest and simple Yang Ercui was not to her liking, so it was fine for her to be in jail.
In her past life, Yang Ercui's misfortune didn't come early. After Yang Huaiyuan was admitted to university, she set up a stall in the county town. Zhong Qingqing asked Yang Ercui to monitor her day and night. Zhong Qingqing had a conflict with her neighbor and accidentally got injured.
The blame was pinned on Yang Ercui.
Yang Ercui was reported to the police and imprisoned for five years. After her release, she was ostracized by her entire family, and when she finally died, no one even claimed her body.
She buried the body in the back hill.
Zhong Qingqing refused to give a response, so Officer Jiang took Yang Ercui away directly.
The person was taken away, and Zhong Qingqing dusted herself off and got up.
"What else do you want to do?" Zhong Qingqing asked, looking at Huang Zhenwei who was blocking her way.
Huang Zhenwei sneered, "You think you can just pin the blame on your daughter and that'll be the end of it?"
Zhong Qingqing pushed him away, "My husband is dead, do you still want to bully a widow?"
Zhong Qingqing started to act spoiled.
Huang Zhenwei wasn't buying it. "If you come near me, I'll take you to town and accuse you of indecent assault."
Zhong Qingqing's expression changed.
Huang Zhenwei works for the town's security department; hooliganism is a crime punishable by public humiliation.
"Get out of here."
Huang Zhenwei said, "Zhong Qingqing, if I don't see this money within three days, your Yang Ercui can forget about getting out of the police station."
Huang Zhenwei made a harsh statement.
“Zhong Qingqing, you’ve been taking grain from the Guan family all these years. If you can’t return it within three days, I’ll deduct it from your share of grain at the end of the year.”
Zhong Qingqing paused in her steps.
My fingers were practically embedded in my flesh.
She snorted coldly, flicked her sleeves, and left.
Her two daughters were following behind her.
No one expected it to end like this.
Isn't Zhong Qingqing a victim?
Why did it turn into extortion?
Zhong Qingqing is ruthless. If it weren't for the brigade leaders today, Gou Dan's family would have been driven to their deaths.
"Dog Egg, take good care of your grandparents." The captain said with a hint of apology.
Dog Egg's eyes had lost their death intent. "Okay, I will."
Squad leader Huang Zhenwei exchanged a glance with Wanyue and said, "Wanyue, go to the squad headquarters."
The three left for the team headquarters.
