"Hey, it's not a big deal."

Mother Li continued to chat with her son in a gentle tone: "Your brother-in-law's old cousin, named Yuan Xiaoduo, committed a small crime. This case is in Xiaowei's hands. People know about our family's relationship, so they will You came to Xiaowen for help, and you said they are all acquaintances, so how can you say no to helping, right?"

"Unexpectedly, as soon as Xiaowen started talking, Xiaowei's face changed, saying that they had discipline and couldn't help, and also said a lot of things to scare mom..."

"Oh, son, you don't know. That wife of yours is so awesome. She trains mom and your sister as if they were children. Mom and your sister didn't even dare to raise their heads when they were being trained."

"Forget it about your sister. After all, she is a junior, but mom is still a mother-in-law at such an old age. How can a daughter-in-law scold her mother-in-law like this? If word spreads, how can mom still behave? If your dad is still alive and sees you How uncomfortable it must be for your daughter-in-law to discipline your mother like this..."

Later, Li's mother's voice began to choke, and she even brought up Li Haoxuan's father who had been dead for many years to talk about it, as if she had been greatly wronged.

Sure enough, Li Haoxuan's anger was aroused by his mother, and his heart was filled with anger towards his wife.

However, he has been a lawyer for many years, and he still has basic professional qualities and judgment skills, and there is still a trace of reason in his anger——

Although his mother described what Xiaowen asked his wife to do in a very simple way, almost in a flash, he keenly captured the words "Someone committed something, and the case is in Xiaowei's hands."

Mother didn't understand that he, a well-known barrister, was not born out of water. He realized almost immediately that Xiaowen asked his wife to handle a criminal case, which involved crime.

"Mom, please tell me in detail, what does Xiaowen want Xiaowei to do?"

"Forehead......"

Mother Li was crying vigorously when she suddenly heard her son ask this question and felt a little guilty.

She looked at her daughter and found that her daughter was looking at her nervously. She had obviously heard the question on the other end of the phone.

Since Mother Li had taken the matter upon herself, she naturally would not betray her daughter. She sobbed into the receiver of her mobile phone a few times, but she was actually thinking about how to tell her son about this matter.

After thinking for a long time, I couldn't think of anything, so I had to tell the truth.

"Xiao Xuan, we don't understand. We are just thinking that since the case is in Xiaowei's hands, can she let Yuan Xiaoduo go for your sister's sake? Just for this little thing..."

Mother Li tried her best to downplay the size of the matter through words, but little did she know that the size of the matter could never be controlled by words.

"Mom, you are confused."

Li Haoxuan couldn't listen anymore and interrupted his mother directly.

He somewhat understood his wife's thoughts, but of course, this did not mean that he supported his wife's disrespect for his mother.

"What you and Xiaowen did was to force Xiaowei to make a principled mistake. It could range from removal from office to a prison sentence at the most severe level. Have you thought about the consequences?"

"This... can't be that serious. Your sister said that Xiaowei will be fine as long as she is careful..."

Mother Li was unwilling to admit her selfishness and was still struggling to speak harshly.

"What does Xiaowen know? She hasn't even graduated from junior high school and has never been to class for a day. You just listen to her nonsense!"

Li Haoxuan's tone was stern, angry with his sister for misleading his mother and angry with his mother for not distinguishing right from wrong.

"Let me tell you this... Is Xiaowen by your side? Mom, please put your phone on speakerphone so that she can listen."

"it is good."

Mother Li promised, but in fact she had already turned on the speaker of her mobile phone.

"Mom, Xiaowen, if Xiaowei listens to your words and lets Yuan Xiaoduo go, then she will be guilty of bending the law for personal gain, and neither of you can escape. It will also constitute a crime, which is called taking advantage of influence to accept bribes. The maximum penalty will be more than seven years in prison.”

"what?"

Li Haoxuan heard the screams of his mother and sister on the other end of the phone.

"No way! Brother, you must be trying to protect Bai Xiaowei by scaring me and my mother. I don't believe it!"

Li Qianwen was the first to scream again. She didn't believe it. Bai Xiaowei did it. What does it have to do with her? Why should she be sentenced?

"What Bai Xiaowei? That's your sister-in-law!"

Li Haoxuan sternly corrected his sister's title.

Li Qianwen muttered dissatisfiedly, but did not dare to let her brother hear what she was saying.

"Xiao Xuan, don't scare mom. Mom is old and can't stand being scared. Is it really that serious?"

After all, Li's mother is older than her daughter. She knows that her son will not scare her with a sentence - people who work in the law know that the law is not a child's play.

"You don't believe it? Okay, wait, let me read it to you... Article 388- of the Criminal Law of the People's Republic of China: Crime of taking advantage of influence to accept bribes - close relatives of state functionaries or other persons with whom the country A person who has a close relationship with a staff member, through the behavior of the staff member of the country in the official position, or by taking advantage of the convenient conditions created by the power or status of the staff member of the country...to seek improper benefits for the client...amount If there are any serious circumstances or other serious circumstances, the situation shall be..."

Mother Li on the other end of the phone seemed to be shocked. Even Li Qianwen, who always liked to chirp and refute others, was as quiet as a chicken.

After a long time, Li Haoxuan finished reading the law and only said one sentence:

"Mom, I won't say much else. You and Xiaowen should think about what to do."

After saying that, he hung up the phone.

Without the slightest pause, Li Haoxuan called his wife and prepared to launch an investigation.

However, after dialing the WeChat voice call for a long time, there was no answer. He had no way to vent his anger, so he found his wife's phone number and dialed it. As soon as he dialed, he heard a voice prompt: "The number you dialed is currently on a call." , please dial again later..."

It sounded like Li Haoxuan wanted to throw his phone.

He called a few more times, and each time he hung up when he heard the voice prompt. After a few times, he became more and more angry.

He knew that his wife should be working overtime at work at the moment, and he also knew that he shouldn't disturb her, but he was just angry.

After making several more calls, I finally heard my wife’s voice:

"Hello? What's wrong, hubby? Is there something urgent? I see you've been typing all the time?"

Bai Xiaowei was on the phone with Qin Guan, and the two were communicating about the details of Gu Wenrui's intentional injury case.

When she caught a glimpse of her husband Li Haoxuan's call, Bai Xiaowei didn't pay attention at first. Later, she saw that her husband kept calling. She was afraid that her husband was in a hurry, so she had to talk to Qin Guan in a hurry and answered her husband's call.

"You still know how to answer the phone!"

Hearing his wife's voice, Li Haoxuan's suppressed anger poured out, and he almost shouted these words.

Bai Xiaowei was stunned for a moment by Li Haoxuan's roar. She knew that her husband might be angry because she had another argument with her mother-in-law, but she didn't think too much about it.
