Chapter 70 Bai Hua was arrested

It was pitch black outside.

Lights were on in every household.

There is a custom of getting up early on New Year's Day. Dumplings eaten on New Year's Day must be vegetarian. The dumplings in the bowl cannot be finished and one must be left, which is called "abundance every year".

After eating early in the morning, the pots and bowls cannot be washed yet. They have to be washed after visiting each household and wishing a happy new year. This custom should have the same meaning as leaving dumplings in the bowl.

In short, they were passed down from the older generation and have been passed down from generation to generation.

When making dumplings, firecrackers have to be set off before they can be cooked. Even on New Year's Day, if you want to sleep in, you can't. How can you sleep when firecrackers are popping?

It has to be said that the older generation is also wise. They know how to pay New Year's greetings early. After breakfast, when it is just dawn, they go to visit their neighbors and pay New Year's greetings. This is the job of the younger generation. Generally, people over 60 will stay at home, waiting for the younger generation to come and pay New Year's greetings.

Everyone wears new clothes for the New Year, with red being the main color, representing joy and prosperity.

Want to ask why?

The Chinese New Year is the beginning of a new year, and what matters is a good omen.

I hope that the coming year will be smooth and safe, and that my life will be prosperous.

While other families were celebrating the New Year with joy, the Xiao family seemed unusually deserted.

Yesterday at noon, Xiao Jingyan and several of my colleagues captured a spy, Bai Ling’s brother, Bai Hua.

The gunshots that Lin Nuan and the others heard were the gunshots fired by both sides during the arrest of Bai Hua.

Fortunately, the man was caught before he escaped into the crowd, otherwise it might have caused immeasurable losses to the people and even might have resulted in loss of life.

Bai Hua was arrested and his home was searched during the New Year. Not only were all his properties temporarily confiscated, but even his family members were put under surveillance. When they were called "survey", they just arranged two people to watch at the door of Bai's house. They still had freedom of movement, but they had to be accompanied by a police officer when going out. The one who led the search was Xiao Jingyan.

Bai Hua's wife Liu Chunfen knew Xiao Jingyan. When she saw that he was the one who brought people to the house to search, her heart skipped a beat, especially when she saw his ruthless look. She blamed her sister-in-law for being useless. If she had kept the child by her side and raised him up, and treated him well, maybe they would have developed feelings for each other. Now that he is so capable, he could help the family a bit. But what's the use of thinking about these things?

As the sister-in-law, she also knows what kind of person her sister-in-law Bai Ling is. She looks kind, but in fact, she is full of bad intentions. Her heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and intestines are all rotten.

She even suspected that the trouble at home was because Xiao Jingyan wanted to take revenge on Bai Ling and started with their family.

The more she thought about it, the more she felt that this was possible.

Her family had no relationship with Xiao Jingyan, but when she saw the money in the house being turned out, her heart bleed.

Especially when he saw those searching were about to take the money away, he cried out and pounced over.

"This is my family's money. Why do you take my money? My husband is innocent. Not only do you arrest him, but you also want to take away all our money. How are we, an orphan and a widow, going to live in the future? Are you trying to kill us, an orphan and a widow?"

You guys just want to embezzle our family's property in the name of search. You know the law but you are breaking it. I want to see your superiors and sue you."

Looking at the crazy Liu Chunfen, it is not a good idea to beat her up. Even if her husband committed a crime, she has not been convicted. The main thing is that Bai Hua has not pleaded guilty yet. This is not the ancient times. If a person commits a crime, his entire family can be punished. Now, the disaster will not affect his family.

The young policeman was stopped by Liu Chunfen who rushed towards him madly, but he was afraid of being punished if he hurt anyone. After all, there were many people standing outside watching the excitement. If he hurt anyone, his clothes might be stripped off.

"stop."

Xiao Jingyan shouted loudly and walked over.

"Liu Chunfen, you should know clearly how all this money in your family came from unknown sources. I tell you that these are all evidence of Bai Hua's crimes. If you continue to make trouble and hinder our comrades' search, that would be obstruction of public service. We have every reason to arrest you."

Liu Chunfen didn't dare to cry or scream anymore. She wanted to snatch back the cash box but didn't let go, playing the sympathy card.

"These are the money that my family has saved through hard work and frugality. What makes you say that this money is dirty money? Do you have any evidence? Don't you want to rob our family just because you think that we are an orphan and a widow and are easy to bully? Those are just excuses. You arrested my husband without even telling me what crime he committed. You also rummaged through my house like a robber. Is there any justice in this world?"

As she spoke, she started to cry. She knew that the hard approach didn't work so she started to try the soft approach. After she finished speaking, she didn't forget to fan the flames of the crowd watching the excitement outside the door.

"Everyone, please judge for me. My husband, Lao Bai, is usually a good man. He will help anyone who is in trouble. What kind of heinous crime can a good man like him commit?"

The expression on his face was sad and miserable, as if he had suffered a great injustice.

"Xiao Jingyan, in theory, Bai Hua can be considered your uncle, and I can be considered your aunt. I know you hate Bai Ling, and hate him for breaking up your family and making you a child without a father. Even if you want revenge, you can't just pick on the weak and take revenge on our family."

Xiao Jingyan knew that Liu Chunfen did it on purpose, deliberately making the relationship between them clear.

They want to use public opinion to exonerate their family. It turns out that there is not a single good person in this family.

"Don't try to make connections here. I have nothing to do with your Bai family. When my father and mother divorced, I was awarded to my mother. Your sister married my father after my parents divorced. I used to suspect that they had been together for a long time, but now I can be sure of it. But you can rest assured that the organization knows about our relationship. What I am doing now is in accordance with the law. I will not use my own future to retaliate against your family.

You don't need to protest here. The police already have all your husband's criminal records. We can't arrest anyone without reason.

You said the money in the box was saved by you guys through your frugal living, don't you think it's ridiculous?

Bai Hua, as a police station file recorder, only earns more than 30 yuan a month, and you have been a full-time housewife at home since you got married and have never worked. I really want to know how you saved more than 20,000 yuan by living frugally. Do you want me to continue?"

Liu Chunfen opened her mouth but said nothing. She loosened her hands that had been holding the box and sat down on the ground.
