…
After Xu Mengyao confirmed that An An was fine,
He held her in his arms and walked to Zhao Ping, asking softly:
"Sister-in-law, are you okay?"
Zhao Ping quickly stood up, took her daughter into her arms and coaxed her, shaking her head and crying.
"Second sister, I'm sorry, it's all my fault."
"Sister-in-law, this is not your fault. If your parents had a choice, you would not want to be born into such a family."
Xu Mengyao comforted her and asked again, "Sister-in-law, I know your family has been putting pressure on you, and you have never agreed. Now I just want to confirm one thing with you."
"What's the matter?" Zhao Ping cried with tears in her eyes and looked at her sister-in-law who was the most opinionated person in the family.
"Are you willing to sever ties with them?"
After saying this, Xu Mengyao carefully observed Zhao Ping's expression. After all, they were blood relatives. Even if her sister-in-law found it difficult to let go, it was understandable. The Huang family would not force her.
But Zhao Ping responded without hesitation, "I do! I dream of getting away from that family! But... they know how well our family is doing, so they definitely won't agree to sever ties with me. At least your brother brings gifts to our house three times a year and twice a year for birthdays. They're eager to take advantage of any opportunity."
"That's easy. Let's call the police."
"Call the police? This... I just want to break off the relationship, and I don't want to send them to labor camp. Niu Niu is still young..."
When Zhao Ping heard the words "call the police", she backed off. How would others view her if the news got out that she had personally sent her mother and sister-in-law to labor camp?
"Sister-in-law, don't be nervous. We are not really putting them in jail. We are trying to scare them by calling the police. You also said that they won't break off the relationship easily. Once the person wakes up, they will definitely make a scene. It's better to call the police so that they are scared. We can propose to break off the relationship and release the person, and they will definitely agree." Xu Mengyao explained carefully.
"Okay, I'll listen to your second sister." Zhao Ping grasped the backbone and cooperated very well.
Xu Mengyao was about to make a phone call when she heard a noise outside the door.
"Mom, Wenjuan, I'm back."
Huang Wenrong walked quickly into the yard, followed by He Chuan who was carrying something.
"Big sister, you're back." After saying that, she called out to He Chuan again, "Director He is here now? Do you want me to give you, my future brother-in-law, a chance to show your abilities?"
Hearing the words "future brother-in-law", a smile immediately appeared on He Chuan's serious face, and he said readily: "Thank you very much for the opportunity, sister-in-law."
Xu Mengyao immediately recounted what had happened, adding at the end, "I originally wanted to call the police. Although the neighbors had all gone to the restaurant, the police car entering the family compound would definitely be hidden. It's best if this matter is only known to the two families."
"I never thought my sister-in-law's family would be like this."
Wen Rong lowered his voice and said angrily, "But you're right. The fewer people who know about this, the better. We just happened to be driving back. We can get someone in the car and drive straight to the police station."
"Okay, but in family matters like this, the police station usually just tries to smooth things over. Let me make a phone call first. What's the name of the police station here?" He Chuan asked.
"Garden Police Station."
After He Chuan finished the call, he pulled the two dead mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in the house into the car.
"Sister-in-law, I'll go show my future brother-in-law the way first. You don't have to rush. Feed An An and wait for your dad and the others to come back. Then you, big sister, will go with me. You have to go in person to sign the marriage certificate." Xu Mengyao instructed.
"Okay, I understand."
…
On the other side, the phone in the Huanshi Public Security Bureau office rang, and Director Wu, who was taking a lunch break, got up from the sofa.
He asked angrily, "Who is it? In the middle of the day."
He didn't know what the other party said, but he immediately stood up straight and answered loudly: "Yes, I am Wu Gang. I am sorry...I am sorry, leader. Okay, leader, don't worry, I will complete the task."
After hanging up the phone with trembling hands, Director Wu immediately shouted outside, "Quick, prepare the car! I want to go to the Garden Police Station."
He quickly dialed a number: "Lao Gao, are you at the station? It's all right if you're here! A great Buddha from the capital will be coming to your station soon to do some work. You must fully cooperate! I'll be there in twenty minutes! How far we can go in the future depends on how well you handle this job today!"
When Director Gao heard this, he woke up immediately. Seeing the two people on duty, he immediately tightened their belts and ordered them to call back the others who were going home after get off work.
As soon as He Chuan's car drove into the police station, Chief Gao immediately came forward with two police officers.
"Is this Mr. He? I'm Gao Wei, the director here. If you encounter any difficulties in Huanshi, we will definitely solve them."
He Chuan shook hands with him and said politely, "Hello, Director Gao. There are two thieves in this car. They were caught on the spot. I would like to trouble you to help deal with them."
"It's not a trouble, it's our duty to serve the people. Xiao Zheng and Xiao Liu, take the prisoner to the interrogation room quickly." Director Gao quickly ordered.
Xu Mengyao got out of the car and greeted one of the police officers: "Officer Zheng, long time no see."
"Why are you here?" Officer Zheng was very surprised to see her with the big shot that her superiors had mentioned.
"I caught these two people. They are my sister-in-law's family. They took advantage of the fact that no one was at home to beat my sister-in-law and robbed my niece's gold jewelry. My sister-in-law wants to break off relations with them." Xu Mengyao told the story in a few words.
Director Gao received the message and understood that they wanted to borrow their land, and the key point was to break off the relationship.
He breathed a sigh of relief, and without asking how the two women fainted, he directed his men to work.
"Take him to the interrogation room and wake him up."
After Zhao's mother and the others were woken up by the tea, they were so scared to learn that they had been taken to the police station that they almost wet their pants.
Mrs. Zhao cried and complained: "It's none of my fault. It was my mother-in-law who took it away. She also asked me to suppress my sister-in-law."
Zhao's mother also had snot running down her face: "I just took my granddaughter's things to look at them. I didn't steal them, I didn't steal them..."
…
Father Zhao had drunk a lot of wine.
He also sighed that his in-laws were so wealthy that there were two bottles of good wine on each table. Zhao's father and son drank one glass on each side, not even bothering to grab food for their grandson, and drank until they were staggering.
When they arrived at Huang's house, they learned that the two women in the family had been taken to the police station. They were sobered up by the shock.
They were supported by several young men and taken to the police station. When they arrived, all the police officers in the yard were in place, and Director Wu was waiting for them.
The father and son had never seen such a scene before. Their legs were shaking. The eldest brother of the Zhao family even sat down on the ground. "I, I am a good person. I only stole eggs from Aunt Caihua's house. I will return them when I get back."
His son was useless, so Zhao's father had to force himself to ask:
"I, I came to see my wife. What happened between her and my daughter-in-law?"
