Everyone's expression changed and they looked at Liu Li, whose wrist was grabbed. She was holding a bag of oysters in her hand.
"Let go! You old bastard, let me go now!" Liu Li yelled angrily. She was not at all embarrassed by being caught in the act. Instead, she was very arrogant.
All the seafood vendors were angry and blamed her.
"What the hell! Stealing things so confidently! This is the first time I've seen this in my entire life!"
"That's right! A woman is even more arrogant than a local scoundrel. This is incredible!"
"Madam boss, this guy has been caught red-handed. Call the police."
"That's right! Call the police immediately!"
Many people were making a fuss, but some people were soft-hearted and thought that Liu Li, a girl, might have some hidden reason for stealing things, and that the case should not be reported to the police station.
Before they could think about it, Liu Li spat at the vendors who were shouting the loudest, her eyes sinister and vicious, "It's none of your business if a dog catches a rat! Be careful!"
"Hey! How dare a thief be so violent! Beat her to death!"
Seeing that they were enraged, Lin Qin tried to dissuade them, "Calm down, beating someone is against the law, and we can leave this matter to the police. But we still have to do business, so I'd like to trouble you guys to help get the thief out, and then wait for the police to come and testify."
The few of them exchanged glances and immediately understood the deep meaning of Lin Qin's words. They deliberately dragged the people out rudely and secretly hit Liu Li several times.
Liu Li screamed in pain and cursed even more harshly.
Lin Qin quickly took out five yuan and gave it to the old lady, and said, "Thank you for your hard work today, go back first, or you will be hated by that crazy woman."
The old lady scolded Liu Li several times with righteous indignation, and shouted indignantly: "What am I afraid of? My home is here, and I have seven sons! If she dares to cause trouble to me, my sons will kill her!"
The old lady said this on purpose for Liu Li to hear.
Sure enough, Liu Li, who had been staring at the old lady with resentment, now didn't dare to look at her anymore.
The old lady didn't intend to let Liu Li go. She walked up to her, pointed at her forehead and continued to scold her, "Why don't you do something else at your age? You have to be a thief! Let me tell you! This area is my territory, and I am also in charge of this store! Anyone who dares to steal things from this store must first ask me if I agree!"
All the fishmongers gave the old lady a thumbs-up.
"Grandma, you are so amazing!"
The old lady became more and more proud. She crossed her arms and pointed at the men, women, and children who were chatting and enjoying the cool breeze around her. "All of them are related to my family. My son still eats commercial grain. Our family has a lot of connections. We don't cause trouble, but we're not afraid of trouble either!"
The old lady waited until the police from the police station came, and told the police in an emotional manner how Liu Li stole things, how she caught the thief, and how Liu Li was so arrogant.
The police officer was obviously familiar with Liu Li. He looked at her with obvious disdain and disgust. "Why are you causing trouble again? You were just released a few days ago, and now you want to go back in? How about we just lock you up for ten days or half a month this time!"
The last time Liu Li was caught was because she followed a group of hooligans to steal things. Because of the serious circumstances and the fact that it was not her first offense, she was detained for five days.
Ma Cuihua forced Liu Yongguo to find a way to deal with it, and it was Liu Yongming, who was far away in the countryside, who used his connections to rescue Liu Li.
I didn't expect that this person would not change his bad habits and actually committed the crime alone.
Liu Li finally looked a little panicked, but she still shouted stubbornly, "I didn't steal! Lin Qin owed me money. If she hadn't hurt me, I wouldn't have a scar on my face. It's only natural for me to take her things!"
Lin Qin rolled her eyes, "Psycho! If you dare to touch my things, next time I will not only leave a scar on your face, I will destroy your face and break your hands!"
It was the first time for everyone to see the amiable Lin Qin utter such harsh words. They all looked at her sideways, wondering what kind of blood feud there was between them.
The police officer handcuffed Liu Li with a stern face. Seeing that she resisted, he hit her harder, "Behave yourself!"
Just like that, Liu Li was taken away.
Everyone continued to do business, and the onlookers left after staying for a while.
The Liu family was in an uproar.
"What did you say? Your sister was taken to the police station again? Her marriage partner will be here soon. That's the rich husband your brother found for her with great difficulty. This marriage can't be ruined! What should we do?" Ma Cuihua was so anxious that she was focused on today's blind date rather than what Liu Li had done wrong. It can be seen that this kind of thing is no longer new in the Liu family.
Liu Yongguo's face was gloomy, and he was full of anger. "How should I know? Will she listen to me if I ask her to behave herself? I have to go out to work soon, so I can't take care of her anymore!"
"Boss! You have to ignore this matter! Besides, if your sister marries well, you will also benefit from it, right?" Ma Cuihua looked unhappy.
Xu Manzhi came out of the house and said sarcastically, "Mom, we don't know if we can benefit from our sister in the future. I only know that she has become the news in our area again today.
Now everyone in the streets is talking about Liu Li's arrest. When her rich son-in-law comes over and asks about it on the street, do you think he will be scared away?"
Ma Cuihua was so angry that she glared at Xu Manzhi. "You can't spit out ivory from a dog's mouth. Why are you everywhere? Get out! I'm annoyed just by looking at you!"
When Lin Qin was still alive, the relationship between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was pretty good. Ever since Lin Qin's divorce, Liu Yongming's work wasn't going well, and Ma Cuihua was unhappy. Xu Manzhi felt that the Liu family had no future, and she no longer supported Ma Cuihua and Liu Li as before, and often bullied them.
The relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is also deteriorating.
"Mom, taking your anger out on me won't change the fact that Liu Li is a hopeless case. In my opinion, you'd better not dream of a rich husband. With her condition, she'll be rejected even if you marry her!" Xu Manzhi became more and more excited as she spoke.
Ma Cuihua was so angry that she smashed things.
Liu Yongguo was overwhelmed and quickly took Xu Manzhi to the house. "Can you please say less? Can't you see that mom is almost mad to death?"
Xu Manzhi shook off Liu Yongguo's hand and said angrily with a stern face, "It's just right that you're so angry! We agreed that this house, including the second room, is ours!"
The good days she had been looking forward to were no longer in sight, so she could only hold on to the things she could see and touch.
Liu Yongguo immediately frowned, "Xu Manzhi, that's my mother, please be polite! I've already told you that you don't have to worry about family matters in the future, what else do you want?"
Xu Manzhi sneered and sat down, watching with interest, "Okay! Then I'll see how you can stop me from worrying!"
Liu Yongguo walked out of the yard without saying a word, went to the street to call Liu Yongming, and then went to the police station to find out the situation.
When he saw Liu Li, before he could even start to scold her, he heard Liu Li yelling in frustration, "Brother, it was that bitch Lin Qin who harmed me. You have to avenge me!" (End of this chapter)
