After hearing this, the villagers finally understood.
"I see."
"Then Erren's wife deserved it. If I were to ask you, Xia Zhi did nothing wrong. We were all present at the time. Daguo would not have bothered to take him back if he hadn't been his nephew."
"That's right. I took the person back home with good intentions, but Qiao Erren's wife just blackmailed him."
"No one in that family is good. Qiao Dashan's family was not well off before, and everyone in that family looked down on others."
"That's right. Now their conditions are better, so they are still trying to extort money."
"They should call the police and have them arrested and locked up for a while, so that people won't really think that Qiao Dashan's family are easy to bully and manipulate."
The folks here are chatting.
On the other side, Qiao Erren and his family were working on another field. When they saw the police coming and Qiao Xiazhi sitting in the car, they dropped their hoes and sickles and ran up the mountain.
Some villagers who didn't know what was going on were still confused!
"Erren, where are you guys going?"
"What happened to your family?"
Qiao Xiazhi, who was in the police car, saw Qiao Erren and his family running away, and immediately said to the police comrades: "They are there, and they are about to run away."
Upon seeing this, the police drove over in a police car, got out and chased in the direction where Qiao Erren's family fled.
After seeing this, everyone in the team finally understood why Qiao Erren and his family ran away.
It turned out that the police came to arrest someone who had committed a crime.
It’s just that most people still don’t know exactly what they have done wrong.
However, after a little inquiry, everyone soon learned that Qiao Erren's wife had extorted five dollars from Qiao Daguo.
Some people agree with Qiao Xiazhi's approach in this matter.
Some people also say that Qiao Xiazhi is cold-blooded and heartless. We are all family. How much money is this? Is it necessary to call the police?
Because of this incident, these relatives are no longer available.
Qiao Xiazhi doesn't care what others say about her or how they look at her, nor does she care whether they can still be relatives in the future. Today she just wants to kill the chicken to scare the monkeys to show those who bullied her family a lesson.
When she is not at home in the future, let’s see who dares to come to her house to cause trouble and see if she can’t kill them.
It’s not about how much money it is!
The police chased Qiao Erren and his family for a long time before they brought them down from the mountain.
Qiao Erren fell down at that time and was scratched on the face by a dead branch. However, the wound was not big, but he bled a lot, which scared him a lot.
The police checked his wound and left it alone as they thought it wasn't a big deal.
Zhang Cuicui knew why she was arrested, and she knew she had to admit defeat, so she quickly begged for mercy with nice words.
"Comrade Public Security, this is just a misunderstanding. We have already returned the money to them. We were just kids at the time and said the wrong thing."
"Later we realized that we had misunderstood Daguo and we returned the money last night."
Public security officer: "But we received a report. This is the second time you have come to our house to blackmail us."
Qiao Erren: "No, no, no."
Zhang Cuicui: "We didn't go there to blackmail them. We knew the truth and then went there to exchange for money."
Public Security Comrade: "Have you returned the money including the principal and interest?"
Zhang Cuicui: "I have paid it back, I have paid it back."
The public security comrades looked at her.
Zhang Cuicui added: "My family couldn't come up with that much money at once, so I paid back four yuan for now. There is still one yuan left with interest. I will definitely pay it back when the team gets its share of money later."
The police officer curled his lips and said, "It seems that if we don't lock you up, you have no idea how high the heaven is and how deep the earth is. You even fooled us police officers."
"If it's ten or twenty dollars, I can understand that they can't take it out in a bad year. You can talk to them nicely so they don't get cold feet."
"But do you not want to give this dollar, or do you want to play tricks on others? Anyone who is not stupid should know what's going on, right?"
"To be honest, although we don't like people calling the police for such a small matter, we also don't like people who play tricks and bully others just because they see that the family is honest."
Zhang Cuicui: "No, no, it's really a misunderstanding. I'm going to go back and find a way to give them the remaining money."
“We really didn’t blackmail them.”
At this point, the public security comrades had just brought the person to the police car, and Qiao Xiazhi was still waiting there.
Qiao Xiazhi naturally heard their conversation.
When the public security comrades saw Qiao Xiazhi, they thought she didn't hear their conversation, so they explained Zhang Cuicui's attitude of admitting her mistake again.
"Since they have a good attitude in admitting their mistakes and they have already paid back part of the money, why don't we let them pay back the rest and let this matter go for now?"
Qiao Xiazhi didn't really want to send them to jail, so he said, "As long as they promise not to cheat my family out of money and return the remaining money to my family, I can temporarily not pursue the matter."
Zhang Cuicui responded hastily, "I promise, I promise. This was all a misunderstanding."
"Then, comrade Public Security, I will go home and bring the money to her now, you see..."
Seeing this, the public security comrades who had held Zhang Cuicui let her go.
Then Zhang Cuicui quickly went home and took out one dollar and five cents and handed it to Qiao Xiazhi.
Qiao Xiazhi knew that five yuan for more than a month would not be much interest, so he just charged one cent as a token of appreciation.
"It's only five dollars in interest. I won't take advantage of you and won't charge you a penny. I'm not like you who would do anything for a little money."
After the money was cleared, the public security comrades gave the whole family a warning and then released the man.
