Seeing the police officers arrive, Jia Zhangshi appeared very nervous. Regardless of whether a crime has been committed, people generally feel some fear when they see police officers from the local police station. This is a normal reaction for ordinary people when encountering the police.
My initial confidence vanished the moment I saw the police officers from the local police station.
This made Jia Zhangshi subconsciously look at her son. Seeing his mother's gaze, Jia Dongxu felt particularly helpless. He even felt a little resentful towards his mother; he had already said those things, yet she still had to cause this trouble.
Jia Dongxu had no choice but to step forward at this point. After all, the person who had committed the crime was his own mother.
"Officer, it's all a misunderstanding. I'm really sorry to have troubled you all."
"If this is all a misunderstanding, then there are plenty of misunderstandings in the world. You and your son are quite the local celebrities. You've been on our police station's radar for a long time."
"What you did was really disgusting. Go ask around the neighborhood, who else would disrupt someone else's wedding like you? If someone disrupted your wedding, how would you feel?"
“Officer, I know what my mother did was wrong. But it was the only way. You know, my son and I are registered at the police station, so they must know about our situation. We live on tree leaves and weeds every day, and we can count the grains we have.”
"My mother did this because she was starving. If we still had food, who would do such a thing? Please, please forgive us this time, considering that we are truly desperate!"
“I assure you, my mother will never do it again. If there is a next time, you can arrest her, detain her, or even execute her, I will have no complaints.”
Although Jia Dongxu's words were very tragic, the law is the law. If this kind of thing allows people to cause trouble at other people's homes, then the police station wouldn't need to do anything else but deal with these kinds of things every day.
“If everyone were like you, what would be the point of having laws? Let’s address the issue of compensation first.”
“Weihua said he bought two jin of meat and a chicken today. If you add other expenses, it definitely cost more than 5 yuan. Even if he and his wife had already eaten beforehand, your mother ate the rest.”
"We're now asking you to compensate Weihua three yuan. That shouldn't be too much to ask, right?"
Everyone knew that compensation was one thing, but only after the money was paid would the police station impose a punishment based on the facts. If no money was paid, the punishment would be many times more severe. Upon hearing the police officer's words, Jia Zhangshi immediately limped over to her son.
It wasn't that Jia Zhangshi was deliberately causing trouble; she was simply too hungry to stand it. Now, hearing that she had to pay another three yuan, Jia Zhangshi felt a little regretful.
Their family was already living in dire straits, and now they had to pay compensation. Jia Zhangshi had no choice but to cling to her son's hand and plead with him. At the same time, she glanced at Yi Zhonghai, because he was the only one in the Jia family with money.
Watching Jia Zhangshi, this grown-up old baby, acting all coquettish, made many people's stomachs churn. The scene was truly disgusting, and the contrast was incredibly stark.
When Yi Zhonghai saw Jia Zhangshi's appearance, he knew that Jia Zhangshi was doomed, so he immediately turned his face away. This was his money to make a living, and he absolutely could not let Jia Zhangshi spend it.
Recalling past grudges, Yi Zhonghai decided to take advantage of the situation and divorce Jia Zhangshi. Continuing to live with the Jia family would only lead to a life of darkness.
The leaves and aquatic plants that have been there for more than two months have already driven Yi Zhonghai to the brink of collapse.
"Officer, people like this should be severely punished, otherwise how can the authority of the law be upheld? Continuing like this will only lead to moral decay. Once such an example is set, everyone will follow suit."
"To express my stance, I request that the police officers allow me to divorce Jia Zhangshi."
Upon hearing Yi Zhonghai's words, Jia Zhangshi was completely stunned. She hadn't expected Yi Zhonghai to kick her while she was down at this crucial moment.
Although Huang Xiaojuan already knew that Yi Zhonghai had become estranged from her family when she was pregnant, Jia Zhangshi was still caught off guard when the incident actually occurred.
The police officers at the local police station knew about the Jia family's situation, and naturally, they also knew about Yi Zhonghai's relationship with them. The reason Yi Zhonghai had become like this was largely due to the Jia family.
The police station didn't want to get involved in their family conflicts, because it wasn't their responsibility at all.
“You should go to the neighborhood office to handle this yourself. All I want to ask you now is, are you going to pay compensation or not? If you are going to pay compensation, then hand over the money. If you are not going to pay compensation, then we will take Jia Zhangshi away.”
Everyone had their own thoughts after hearing what the police officer said. To avoid further punishment, Jia Zhangshi had no choice but to agree to divorce Yi Zhonghai. Only in this way would Yi Zhonghai be likely to pay the three yuan.
"Yi Zhonghai wants me to divorce you, but you can forget about it unless you're willing to pay these 3 yuan. Even if it means death, I will keep you tied to our Jia family."
Hearing Jia Zhangshi's words, Yi Zhonghai thought for a moment and finally decided to divorce her as soon as possible. If he separated from Jia Zhangshi, he wouldn't need to eat tree leaves and water plants next month.
Having made up his mind, Yi Zhonghai immediately took out three yuan from his hand. With the police officers from the local police station present, Yi Zhonghai wasn't afraid that Jia Zhangshi would dare to deny it.
Jia Zhangshi took the money and handed it to the police officer at the police station. The officer then handed the money to Wei Hua and handcuffed Jia Zhangshi.
"Since your mother is disabled, we won't make things too difficult for her. Go to the neighborhood office to pick her up in two months."
"Yi Zhonghai, you come with us. Then you and Jia Zhangshi go to the neighborhood office to complete the divorce procedures."
Upon hearing the police officer's words, Yi Zhonghai and Jia Dongxu reacted differently. Jia Dongxu was somewhat worried, but Yi Zhonghai was overjoyed.
The reason Yi Zhonghai chose to divorce Jia Zhangshi was not only because he was tricked, but also because Jia Zhangshi had broken a leg.
Yi Zhonghai didn't want to be dragged down by Jia Zhangshi any longer. Upon hearing the police officer's words, he immediately returned to his room, grabbed his identification, and left the courtyard with the officer.
Watching them leave, the people in the courtyard gradually dispersed. With everyone else gone, Wei Hua and Yang Tao tidied up the kitchen and began their wedding night. However, a small mishap occurred during their wedding night. Yang Tao couldn't accept that she had suddenly gotten married and absolutely refused to consummate their marriage in broad daylight.
Helpless, Wei Hua could only try to build a relationship with Yang Tao at home. After some conversation, they both discovered each other's secrets.
No one expected to find a fellow villager under these circumstances. They say that when fellow villagers meet, tears well up in their eyes. But Wei Hua delivered a direct and painful blow to Yang Tao.
Having shared similar experiences, Wei Hua and Yang Tao's relationship quickly blossomed. They were inseparable.
Just as Wei Hua and Yang Tao were happily having dinner, Jia Zhangshi was carried back to the courtyard house.
Everyone was very curious when they saw Jia Zhangshi being carried back. Wasn't Jia Zhangshi just arrested by the police? Why was she being carried back after only one afternoon?
Only Wei Hua knew a little about it. How could something not happen between Jia Zhangshi, who had taken so many advantages in her own home? After all, the system's rewards were still lying in her personal space.
This time, the system not only rewarded him with ten chickens and 100 yuan, but also granted him 10 points of physique. Although the reward was somewhat meager, it was still a 10x reward. If something unexpected happened to Jia Zhangshi, he would be underestimating the system.
Only Jia Dongxu was somewhat unable to accept the situation. His mother had been fine when she left, but by the afternoon she was covered in bruises.
"Comrades, what exactly happened? Why did my mother become like this?"
Upon hearing Jia Dongxu's words, the comrades from the subdistrict office could only recount the events with apologetic expressions.
"Here's what happened. Your mother was supposed to undergo two months of labor reform. We had just taken her to the reform site when she had an accident a few minutes later."
"Perhaps it's because the weather is cold now, and many places are already frozen. Your mother slipped and fell when she went to build the reservoir. Because it's a large reservoir, the dam is over a hundred meters high. Since it's still under construction, there are all kinds of rocks everywhere. Your mother rolled directly from the dam into the reservoir. There were all kinds of sharp rocks along the way, but luckily your mother instinctively protected her head, which saved her life."
"Considering your mother's special circumstances, the higher-ups have waived her punishment. Let your mother rest and recover at home, and don't make the same mistake again."
The people from the neighborhood committee were only responsible for carrying Jia Zhangshi back, and then they left the courtyard.
As soon as the neighborhood committee officials left, the people from the courtyard immediately surrounded them. They saw that Jia Zhangshi was covered in blood and had fainted.
Seeing Jia Zhangshi's miserable state, many people believed the revelation. It must be that Jia Zhangshi had gone too far, even Heaven couldn't bear it; she had ruined Wei Hua's marriage at noon, and by the afternoon she was like this.
