Old man Shen glanced at her with disdain, "You want my Jianlin to be sentenced to death, but you can only think about it, because Jianlin is fine. The court has already ruled that the matter of cutting corners has nothing to do with him!"
"Hahaha! Who are you kidding? Never mind, how is this possible? Isn't Shen Jianlin the foreman? Shouldn't he be responsible if something goes wrong?" Aunt Zhao raised her voice, full of confidence.
She was convinced that this family was just trying to hold on to their promises.
But it doesn’t matter, she will force them to tell the truth. Aunt Zhao is quite confident in her ability to argue.
Fubao really couldn't stand her mean face. When he was young, Aunt Zhao always criticized her, saying that she was a money-loser and it was not worth treating her well or spoiling her. After so many years, she still didn't change and became more and more annoying.
"Aunt Zhao, my father is not in serious trouble. On the contrary, he is also a victim. Because he is too honest and naive, he was tricked by bad guys. They tricked him into signing a construction contract and pushed all the responsibilities onto him. Now the court has figured it out and sentenced him for failure to supervise properly."
"My dad had no idea about the shoddy work. It was his boss who colluded with his subordinates to deceive him, so he had to take the blame. He clearly did not do anything bad and had no intention of harming anyone, but he was sentenced to two years in prison. Everyone, do you think my dad was wronged?"
Fubao's words were clear and powerful. Her neither humble nor arrogant appearance made the villagers unable to tell that she was lying.
Moreover, she explained the matter clearly in just a few words. After hearing this, the villagers really felt that Shen Jianlin was quite wronged.
"Girl, this murder has nothing to do with your dad, right?"
Fubao sighed, with sadness written all over his face, "Uncles and aunts, you know my dad, don't you know what kind of person he is?"
The villagers choked. They were all from the same village. They saw each other every day. They knew each other well. Although Shen Jianlin had been working outside, he had also spent a long time in the village. In the past, he would greet everyone warmly. If he saw someone who needed help, he would come to help without saying anything, and never asked for anything in return.
Because he is kind, honest, down-to-earth and filial, many families wanted to marry their daughters to him.
"My father was really framed by a bad guy. If this was his fault, the court would have sentenced him to a heavy sentence long ago. You don't believe me, but do you also not believe the court's decision?"
The villagers hurriedly shook their heads. "No, no, no... We believe it! How could the court's decision be wrong?"
In the eyes of these villagers, the government is the most authoritative. They definitely know more than farmers like them, so they can't be wrong.
Aunt Zhao saw that things were not going right and quickly said, "You little girl, that's your father, of course you should speak for him! You are so anxious to excuse your father, could it be that you have something to hide?"
Fu Bao was so angry at her strange train of thought that he laughed and retorted righteously, "You also know that he is my father, so of course I have to speak for him. Do I have to speak for you and follow you to slander my father?"
"Also, I'm not making excuses for my dad. I'm telling the truth. If any of you don't believe me, you can go to the county government and ask! If I tell even a single lie, we won't have our fish pond or store anymore. We'll give them all to you!"
