Reborn as an educated youth, my love brain awakens

Chapter 5: The Police Are Here

This matter can be a big deal or a small one.

Sister-in-law Xiangqing and Xiang Xiangqing begged for mercy again and again, begging Secretary Zhang and Captain Xiang. They looked so pitiful.

However, there must be something hateful about pitiful people.

Ji Qinglan also understood why Sister Xiangqing stole the new sword in her previous life and spread rumors that she was crazy. It turned out that it was because of her son.

The eldest son of Captain Xiang's family drives a truck for the county transport team. It is not difficult to get an apprentice in, and it is even easier to get him out.

Secretary Zhang thought for a moment and asked Ji Qinglan, "Ji Zhiqing, the money is yours. What do you think we should do with this matter?"

Sister Xiangqing finally realized what was happening. She crawled to Ji Qinglan and cried, begging, "Sister Ji, I was blinded by greed and did something I shouldn't have done. Please forgive me! I'll return all the money to you."

Everyone else understood that Secretary Zhang wanted to settle the matter peacefully. Such a thing happening in the team would not benefit either Secretary Zhang or Captain Xiang.

Luo Xiufang, director of the Women's Federation, stepped forward to smooth things over: "It's not a big deal. Ji Zhiqing is fine. Xiangqing's family should return the money and compensate Ji Zhiqing with 30 kilograms of grain, and the matter will be over!"

Some of the others nodded in agreement, while others remained silent.

Ji Qinglan raised his head, looking at a bewildered woman, Xiangqing, who was crying loudly, with pity in his eyes.

Her behavior was normal in the eyes of Secretary Zhang and others. When Liang Qian was around, she had always followed Liang Qian, and Liang Qian always stepped forward when problems arose. That was why Secretary Zhang always thought that Ji Zhiqing was stupid.

Stupid people still have too much money.

Finally, Ji Qinglan couldn't bear Sister Xiangqing's crying and pleading, and was about to agree.

The door was pushed open, and two tall and strong men in uniform walked into the office led by the educated youth Han Yuanjun.

"We have received a report of stolen property from the homes of Xiang Qiang and Xiang Xiangqing from the Honghe Brigade. Please come with us."

Secretary Zhang: …

To the Captain: ...

There was a brief silence in the room.

Finally, Xiang Qiang and Xiang Qing's sister-in-law, along with Ji Qinglan, the victim, and Han Yuanjun who reported the case, were taken to the county public security bureau, and Secretary Zhang and Captain Xiang also followed.

After making a statement at the Public Security Bureau, the four people were not released until noon, while Xiang Qiang and Xiang Qing's sister-in-law were detained at the police station.

Facing the north wind, Captain Xiang's face was colder than frost.

"Han Zhiqing, why didn't you discuss it with us before calling the police?" Captain Xiang questioned Han Yuanjun angrily.

"Captain Xiang, when I woke up this morning, I heard everyone saying that Xiangqing's wife had stolen Ji Zhiqing's belongings. I thought she was a thief who stole food from the team, so I rushed out to call the police. I really didn't know Comrade Xiang would be involved."

Han Yuanjun acted very innocent.

"Last time, the educated youth team was guarding the food in the team and it was stolen. Everyone was very anxious. Today, we finally caught the culprit."

Captain Xiang and Secretary Zhang were helpless with Han, the educated youth who had made things irreparable. The last time the team's food was stolen, the villagers blamed the two educated youths who were on duty that night and even deducted their work points.

As soon as the incident involving Xiangqing's sister-in-law came to light, Han Zhiqing ran to the county town to report the incident to the police.

Ji Qinglan held Xin Cheng in his arms and followed the three people without saying a word, his face still showing a look of great shock.

Just now in there, she had thought of countless ideas, such as reporting Liang Qian for marriage fraud and reporting the captain for murder and imprisonment, but she endured them all.

Without substantial evidence, what punishment would they receive even if they reported it?

Thinking of the previous life, Xin Cheng died tragically, her soul wandered the world, with no place to seek justice, while Liang Qian was successful, well-dressed, and enjoying fame, wealth and honor...

This is not an easy matter. She has reported him now, and he can completely shirk the responsibility and lie that he received false information. He can still portray himself as a loving wife.

Captain Xiang and his family can also find a way to escape punishment.

Now she has no letter of introduction and cannot leave the village; Liang Qian, Xing Qian, I am still alive in this life, and I want to watch you climb up little by little, and then fall into the abyss.

Gaining and then losing will make people feel miserable. I have felt the pain in my last life, and it is your turn in this life.

Secretary Zhang was smoking his pipe. The spark in the pipe had long gone out. He took two puffs out of habit. He did not blame Han Yuanjun. He did nothing wrong. As the branch secretary, his first thought must be to make a small matter out of a big one and to keep the peace.

Secretary Zhang collected his tobacco, got on the ox cart first, and said to the three people, "Let's go back to the village first."

The old ox pulled the cart and started slowly, leaving two long mud marks on the ground.

Captain Xiang then said to Han Yuanjun and Ji Qinglan, "Sister-in-law Xiangqing doesn't have the guts to steal the team's food."

He turned his gaze to Ji Qinglan again, "Stealing is a bad thing. Our Honghe Brigade will also become a joke for other brigades. I hope you can write a letter of understanding to make a big deal out of a small matter and release the person first."

"Let's solve this privately on our team. Let Sister Xiangqing compensate you, and our captain will also give you some work points as compensation. What do you think?"

Secretary Zhang, who was driving the car, looked back at Captain Xiang without saying anything. He thought that Xiang Qiang was inside and Captain Xiang was trying to get his son out.

.Because Xiangqing's sister-in-law did not explain clearly the sources of the stolen grain and fake medicine, Xiang Qiang was still detained as a suspect. After everything was investigated clearly, those who should be released would be released, and those who should be imprisoned would be imprisoned.

How is it? Not so good! Ji Qinglan thought silently while holding the new sword.

It was noon now. Xincheng had some rice porridge in the morning. A female police officer in the Public Security Bureau felt sorry for him and fed him a bowl of milk powder. Now he was full of energy, sitting in Ji Qinglan's arms and looking at the new things along the way.

"Captain, this matter cannot be resolved with a letter of apology. Sister Xiangqing sold fake medicine to cheat people for money, which is already murder for money. The country has its laws and the family has its rules. She should be punished accordingly." Han Yuanjun retorted.

"Han Zhiqing, we have to consider the whole brigade. After this incident, we will not be able to be rated as advanced this year. We originally planned to build two houses behind the cowshed next year. If the commune does not give us the reward this year, we will not be able to build the houses next year either."

Can the advanced reward from the commune be used to build two houses?

Han Yuanjun was silent, pursed his lips and said nothing more.

"Ji Zhiqing, what do you think of my proposal?" Captain Xiang asked Ji Qinglan again.

If it was Ji Qinglan in her previous life, she would definitely not have thought of these things, but her soul was trapped in the Xiang family and knew many unknown secrets. Captain Xiang was using Han Zhiqing's grandfather to warn him not to meddle in other people's business.

Except for her, no one knew Han Zhiqing's secret.

In order to accommodate his grandfather who lived in the cowshed, Han Zhiqing often secretly sent things to Captain Xiang's home.

"Han Zhiqing is right. Every country has its own laws and every family has its own rules. Even if Sister Xiangqing didn't steal the brigade's food, her mistake can't be solved with a letter of apology. And we have to trust the public security comrades. They won't let any bad guy go, nor will they wrongly accuse a good guy. Xiang Qiang was wrongly accused, and the public security comrades will definitely release him."
