It's all Zhao Yunxiang's fault! She hasn't even slapped Xiaojiu yet, so who is she showing this to? What's wrong with a grandmother teaching her own junior a lesson?
Wu Jinfeng became more and more angry as she thought about it, and glared at Zhao Yunxiang fiercely. Then, Wu Jinfeng remembered that Zhao Yunxiang was about to go to jail, and her mood eased a little.
"Little boy, what did you say just now? Can you say it again to your uncle?" Qiao Aiguo squatted down, looked at Zhou Yuanyuan, and asked with a smile.
"Uncle, my grandma is wrong. My mother is serving the people, not taking any evil path." Zhou Yuanyuan looked at Qiao Aiguo's face and said seriously.
In reality, Zhou Yuanyuan felt a little regretful. Her words were meant to provoke Wu Jinfeng, hoping she'd get so enraged she'd hit her. She'd even calculated her position, ensuring her mother, Zhao Yunxiang, wouldn't be able to intervene when Wu Jinfeng struck her. Otherwise, with her skill, dodging Wu Jinfeng's slap would have been easy.
As long as Wu Jinfeng beat Zhou Yuanyuan in front of everyone, Zhou Yuanyuan would have a way to make her father Zhou Zhixin believe that she and her mother and brothers were living under Wu Jinfeng's abuse every day in the Zhou family. At that time, no matter how Wu Jinfeng objected, Zhou Zhixin would let Zhao Yunxiang go with the army.
However, Zhou Yuanyuan was very happy that Zhou Zhixin could protect her. Because Zhou Zhixin protected her without hesitation this time, Zhou Yuanyuan decided to give Zhou Zhixin a chance. As long as Zhou Zhixin did not do stupid things in the future, Zhou Yuanyuan would not persuade her mother to leave him.
"Wow! This little girl knows a lot, and she even knows about serving the people!" Qiao Aiguo was delighted. Honestly, seeing a six-year-old girl so seriously talk about serving the people was a bit strange. Aren't girls that age usually fighting over a piece of candy or a hair ornament? How could she possibly understand the meaning of serving the people?
"Uncle, my grandpa said that we are the good children of New China and should be ready to serve the people at all times." Zhou Yuanyuan had no choice but to use the banner of her grandpa Zhao Qingshan to defend her precocity.
Yes, it was true. Uncle Qingshan was a revolutionary hero, so it was normal for him to teach his children patriotism at an early age. Qiao Aiguo felt relieved.
"Then tell me how your mother served the people?" Qiao Aiguo thought. Yunxiang's daughter was so smart, she would definitely find a reasonable excuse for Yunxiang. It would be a good idea to use the child's words to let the police officers who came with her know that Yunxiang had not committed any crime.
"Uncle, my mother made fish balls and sent them to the food company to contribute to the vegetable basket of the people in Yuyuan County." Zhou Yuanyuan nodded and said to Qiao Aiguo seriously, "Uncle, my mother didn't want to work so hard. It was the county manager who said that the vegetables in the vegetable basket of the people in Yuyuan County were too monotonous when winter came, so my mother came to help. Uncle, you can ask my uncle in the town for the details. My uncle is the director of the Sanhe Town Supply and Marketing Cooperative."
"Send it to the food company?" Qiao Aiguo cleverly grasped this point and his eyes lit up.
"Sister Yunxiang, did you make the fish balls that have been newly put on the food counter of the Sanhe Town Supply and Marketing Cooperative these days?" Qiao Aiguo stood up and asked Zhao Yunxiang.
"Brother Qiao, yes, these fish balls were made for the Yuyuan County Food Company on behalf of the Qingshan City Food Factory. I handed all the finished products over to the Sanhe Town Supply and Marketing Cooperative." Zhao Yunxiang explained the whole story of how she made the fish balls to Qiao Aiguo, and concluded by saying, "If it weren't for Manager Wang's request, I really wouldn't want to do this. It's exhausting, and it could easily lead to misunderstandings."
Zhao Yunxiang emphasized the word "misunderstanding" and deliberately glanced at Wu Jinfeng after she finished speaking.
"Now that the situation has been clarified, Xiao Zhang, we're calling it a day." Qiao Aiguo instructed the police officers behind him, then turned to Zhao Yunxiang and said, "Sister Yunxiang, I'll verify this matter with Manager Wang and Director Zhao. You can continue with your work. Supplying food to the people of Yuyuan County is our most important job. Your spirit of serving the people deserves our admiration."
Without thinking twice, Qiao Aiguo defined Zhao Yunxiang's making of fish balls as "serving the people". This time, Wu Jinfeng was dumbfounded.
"What? Just let it go like that? How did the third daughter-in-law making fish balls become serving the people? Yesterday in the hospital, I heard Zhao Guohui's sister-in-law say that she wanted to buy fish balls from Yunxiang! Private transactions, if not a crime, what is it?" Wu Jinfeng was not discouraged and told everyone what she had overheard talking between the two nurses yesterday.
"Mom!" Zhou Zhixin looked at Wu Jinfeng as if she were a stranger. He really didn't understand what was wrong with his mother. Qiao Aiguo said that the matter was over, so why was she so obsessed with Yunxiang?
"Old lady, you also said that Zhao Guohui's sister-in-law just wanted to buy fish balls from Zhao Yunxiang, but what happened? Did she succeed? How many did she buy?" Qiao Aiguo originally wanted to let Wu Jinfeng go for Zhou Zhixin's sake, but Wu Jinfeng kept jumping out to seek death!
"No, but... she said she wanted to buy it!" Wu Jinfeng was speechless and could only repeat this sentence. Yes! A criminal must be found guilty before he can be convicted. It can't be assumed that Zhao Yunxiang sold her fish balls just because someone wanted to buy them, regardless of whether Zhao Yunxiang sold them to them or not?
"Old lady, please come with us to the police station and tell us the truth about how you reported the false case." Qiao Aiguo said to Wu Jinfeng with a serious face.
"Go... go to the police station?" Wu Jinfeng was stunned. These days, especially in rural areas, many people consider going to the police station a shameful thing. Even if nothing happened, once you've been there, you'll be pointed at and criticized by the entire village. Wu Jinfeng hadn't imagined that at her age, she'd have to go to the police station again.
"Yes, because of your negligence, you reported Zhao Yunxiang without any understanding, which caused great trouble to our work and almost wrongly accused a good person. Therefore, you must go back to the police station with us and honestly explain your wrong thoughts." Qiao Aiguo said impatiently with a stern face.
Indeed, they had wasted time traveling from Sanhe Town to Zhoujia Village early that morning and nearly arrested the wrong person. Qiao Aiguo was certain that if he hadn't known Zhao Yunxiang, arresting her would have been a complete bummer. Zhao Qingshan and Zhao Guohui were not to be trifled with. They would have overthrown the town government and the police station. And the instigator of all this was none other than Wu Jinfeng.
Qiao Aiguo made up his mind to teach Wu Jinfeng a lesson today so that she would never dare to target others again, especially Sister Yunxiang.
"San'er, the third brother." Seeing that Qiao Aiguo was not making sense, Wu Jinfeng had no choice but to look at Zhou Zhixin for help.
