"Brother Wu Wei, the matter is not that serious. How can it affect your work? Let's find the police to handle it impartially." Nan Qiao said, looking at the two police comrades behind Wu Wei.
"Yes, yes, Chief Wu, we cannot trouble you with this matter. Secretary Qian is involved. Our director has also spoken. The slanderer must be arrested and brought to justice."
"Then what are you still talking about? Why don't you hurry up and find out what's going on?" Wu Wei was too lazy to listen to these people's compliments and said bluntly. Then he turned to Nanqiao and said, "Qiaoqiao, tell these two guys what's going on." His voice was as gentle as he could be.
The two policemen listened to the meaningless words, and the huge contrast gave them a feeling of being wronged. If they were to say who they admired the most, the first one in the town would be Wu Wei. Although civil defense was not in the same system as them, Wu Wei had real military merits. He had earned them by killing enemies on the battlefield with real swords and guns.
So I felt very sad when I heard Wu Wei's words. Fortunately, I heard on the way that this educated youth from Nanqiao was the younger sister of Wu Wei's squad leader and was about to go to the town to work as an interpreter. I also took her seriously.
Nanqiao told the story again. Zhou Cuihua wanted to refute, but was scared away by Wu Wei's eyes. She shrank to one side timidly, not daring to say a word.
After listening to Nanqiao's story, the two policemen interviewed the surrounding villagers. They looked at Zhou Cuihua with an even more unfriendly expression. Didn't she just want to get close to Nanqiao because he had a good family background and a good job? But Nanqiao fought back. It was not as she wished, so she started to make random accusations and bite people. However, Secretary Qian and Nanqiao were not people she could casually get close to.
Even if Secretary Qian was not involved, Zhou Cuihua knew how much harm her casual slander would cause to an ordinary girl. Even if she knew, she still said so. It means that she is not hurt and does not feel any pain. This is the evil in Zhou Cuihua's heart. If she is not treated, they would be unworthy of their identity as public servants!
The two police officers came forward and pulled Zhou Cuihua up. When they took out the handcuffs and were about to handcuff her, the village chief came running over, followed by Taohua.
The village chief ran to the human world, bent over and gasping for breath. He had just finished the meeting when he saw the peach blossoms at the door. He had been running all the way here in fear and cursing, and he was already out of breath. He finally took a break, stood up and saw Zhou Cuihua, his anger was rising.
"This damn old woman can do anything. She finally borrowed money from the secretary to ask people to help the village pay less public grain, so that every household can get more, and if she can be successfully evaluated, she can get a lot of exemptions, so that every household can have a good New Year. But who knew that it would be in vain in just a few days! "The village chief stared at Zhou Cuihua viciously, wishing he could eat her alive
Seeing the village chief coming, Aunt Gaixian felt relieved. If they were really accused of slandering Nanqiao and Secretary Qian, then there would be no chance of being selected for the award. At the end of the year, every household would get less grain. Not only that, such a big thing happened under her husband's management, and her reputation would not be much better.
However, Aunt Gaixian looked at Nanqiao again. Nanqiao had done a favor to her family, and she was Xiumei's future daughter-in-law, so she was in a dilemma. Now that she saw her husband coming, she felt relieved as if she had found her backbone.
Aunt Xiumei on the side pulled her little daughter and asked, "Why did you come so late?"
"They were in a meeting when I went there, and the people at the door wouldn't let me in," Taohua said in a low voice. Aunt Xiumei didn't continue the topic after hearing that, but lowered her voice and said to Taohua, "Your sister Nanqiao and your second brother are dating. From now on, sister Nanqiao is also one of our family members. If something like this happens again, Taohua has to help mom and your second brother take good care of sister Nanqiao. Don't let others bully her."
"Really? That's great, Taohua has a second sister-in-law! Don't worry, mom, I will definitely protect Sister Nanqiao!" Taohua's eyes were full of joy and she said in a cheerful tone.
Many years later, Taohua did exactly that, becoming Nanqiao's right-hand man, standing in front of her and helping her build a business empire.
"Take it away!" Wu Wei's stern voice brought Taohua back to her joyful thoughts.
"Who is this?" The village chief glanced at Nanqiao, as if to inquire about Wu Wei's identity.
"This is Minister Wu of the Civil Defense, my brother's comrade-in-arms," Nanqiao introduced to the village chief.
After these words came out, the village chief had a headache. Nanqiao was probably the most difficult educated youth he had ever taken over. Not only did he have the ability and family background, but his relatives and friends were even more helpless. He thought he had no one to rely on in this small county town. But who knew... He, a small village chief, had almost met all the leaders in the town in the past few days...
"This... Nan Zhiqing... look at this?" The village chief looked at Nan Qiao hesitantly, not knowing how to plead for mercy.
Zhou Cuihua was a gossiper who couldn't stand others doing well. She would gossip about other people's affairs every day, especially about unmarried girls. A couple of years ago, someone who liked her son sent a matchmaker to meet him. Not only did she scold the matchmaker and send him away, she also told everyone about the girl, scolding her for not considering her own character but only coveting her son. She also scolded her for being too eager to get married, which made the girl still not like him.
Zhou Cuihua's son is a good boy, with good grades and handsome looks, but he has such a mother. Even if she becomes a prince consort, she will probably despise her for hindering her son's career...
So he didn't feel sorry for Zhou Cuihua, and even felt that she deserved it for running into a tough guy.
But if they really don't plead, the blame will be put on their village... the other villagers will be too innocent...
