"You don't have a mirror at home, don't you know how much those things cost? If you had that much money, would you still squeeze more than a dozen people into one room?" The loud speaker mocked rudely. Three hundred yuan could buy a room, and those things cost dozens of yuan. How could they afford them? Do they have that much spare money?
The old man's face twitched, "Our family is poor, but these are bought for the children. No matter how hard life is, we can't let the children suffer!" The old man said, gritting his toothless gums, those things all look the same, who can prove that they are not his!
Wu Zhiqiu still couldn't tell what he was thinking. "Do you know how much a can of malted milk costs?"
The old man really didn't know that the stuff was not something a family like theirs could afford. He just knew it was expensive.
The police's eyes fell on Old Lady Liu, who was holding two cans of malted milk in one hand, holding a net bag of cakes and candies in the other, and pulling pork belly and crucian carp behind her.
Old lady Liu hugged him tightly, "You are looking down on the poor and lower-middle peasants! This is bourgeois behavior!" The old lady pointed at Wu Zhiqiu with her neck stiffened and shouted!
Everyone in the courtyard laughed disdainfully and put a label on her! That era has passed, and people are allowed to behave like capitalists! The old lady still has the old ideas!
The police also looked helpless, looking at Mrs. Liu and Mr. Liu and asking, "What proof do you have that you bought the things?"
"It belongs to us in our hands. Isn't that proof? How else do you want to prove it?" Old Lady Liu frowned and held the thing tightly.
"Let me tell you, these two cans of malted milk cost one hundred yuan. There are numbers on the bottom of the cans, and I registered them after I bought them! Public security comrades, you can go and check. These vegetables and side dishes were also bought at the supply and marketing cooperative at the door. Those people know me. You can go and ask the salesperson if I bought these things just now."
Wu Zhiqiu pointed at the fish, meat, cakes and candies that Old Lady Liu had gathered on the ground. There was no serial number on them. The price of more than 100 yuan was just to fool the Liu family! Those who had bought them knew that what Wu Zhiqiu said was a lie. On the other hand, I won't say who was lying.
When Mrs. Liu heard this, she was like, what other numbers are there? Two cans of malted milk cost more than a hundred yuan! Is it made of gold? This is a life-threatening thing! How can they afford this kind of thing?
So Mrs. Liu didn't stop and opened a package of egg cake and stuffed it into her mouth. She wanted to open the malted milk one, but she heard that stuff can only be eaten after soaking in water. The egg cake is fragrant and soft, so she can eat it now!
Everyone present was petrified. His mouth was so swollen, and he was still delaying his meal? Is being a police officer just for show? Can you eat for free?
Old Mrs. Liu almost choked to death.
Seeing that Old Lady Liu was too unreasonable, the police took them all back to the police station to take statements.
Old man Liu wanted to run away, but he didn't. He just pretended to be pitiful and talked nonsense. He couldn't escape even if he went to the police station!
Li Mancang had a low presence since he came from the police station. Everyone focused on the things and no one cared who beat Liu Gen.
The police took Liu Gen, Sun Chunhong, Old Man Liu, Old Lady Liu, Da Laba, and Wu Zhiqiu back to the police station.
When he arrived at the police station, Old Man Liu discovered that the old men who beat his son were not brought in, so he quickly reported it.
The police officer who was taking the statement rolled his eyes and said, "This is your family's robbery. They are acting bravely. Just tell the truth and explain your own problem. We will summon them if necessary!"
Old Liu was dumbfounded. Wasn't the old lady just trying to take advantage? How could it be considered robbery? They had done this many times before, but never said it this way. He thought so and said so.
The police were shocked by the shamelessness of Old Man Liu. He was used to robbing people, and no one wanted to bother with them, but he thought it was natural? No wonder he dared to come and report the case! He still expected the police to indulge them?
The police were too lazy to waste time talking to him. He admitted to beating people, and old lady Liu admitted to robbing things. The facts were clear.
"Do you want to settle it privately or publicly?" the police asked.
The old man was confused and didn't understand what it meant.
"Let's settle it privately. You two can negotiate and compensate the other party for the damages..." Before the police officer finished speaking, Old Lady Liu jumped up.
