Rebirth has space, and the new love sends the bad husband to prison

"Jiang Fu, do you know Liang Sumei?" the police officer asked straight to the point.

"I know him," Jiang Fu answered without hesitation.

"When did you meet?" the police officer asked again.

"I've known him since childhood," Jiang Fu answered easily.

"What is the relationship between you two?" the police continued to ask.

"Husband and wife relationship," Jiang Fu replied with a smile.

"Husband and wife? Do you have a marriage certificate?" the police officer asked

"What marriage certificate?" Jiang Fu was confused by the question. He thought that he didn't see any marriage certificate from his parents.

"That means no. You said you two are husband and wife, so when did you become husband and wife?" the police officer continued to ask.

"It was just two days ago that the betrothal gifts were given," Jiang Fu replied.

"Does it mean you are husband and wife after giving the bride price?" The police officer smiled, with a joking tone in his voice.

"No... doesn't it count?" Jiang Fu scratched his head and asked back with a little confusion.

"Since you said you are husband and wife, did Liang Sumei voluntarily agree to become your wife?" the public security officer continued to ask calmly.

"Yes, why wouldn't she be unwilling?" Jiang Fu answered lightly, obviously not taking the issue too seriously.

Liang Sumei was furious when she heard Jiang Fu's answer. She wanted to refute him. But she knew that this was an interrogation room and any inappropriate interruption might affect the public security officers' opinion of her. So she chose to remain silent and decided to defend herself at the right time. She took a deep breath and forced herself to suppress her anger.

"Before you confirmed your marriage, did Liang Sumei have any private dealings with you?" the police officer asked.

"What private dealings?" Jiang Fu was a little confused. He blinked and asked in confusion.

“It was just a private meeting,” the police explained.

"Meet in private? Isn't that hooliganism? No!" Jiang Fu looked determined and waved his hands to deny it. He knew the seriousness of the problem. He didn't want to be caught as a hooligan. It was a serious matter of principle.

"That is to say, before Liang Sumei's grandmother, Mrs. Liang, and your mother, Li Haifeng, tried to form a husband-wife relationship between you and Liang Sumei, you and Liang Sumei had never met privately to express your approval of entering into a marriage relationship, right?" The police made further confirmation.

"Uh..." Jiang Fu was stunned, as if he was caught off guard by this question. He thought for a while and answered, "Leader, based on my family's conditions, Liang Sumei cannot fail to approve."

"Is it, or is it not?!" The police officer's voice suddenly became stern.

"Yes..." Jiang Fu was frightened and answered with a trembling voice, lacking confidence.

"Li Haifeng, who was present when this agreement was signed?" The public security comrade took out the agreement and waved it in front of Li Haifeng.

"Mrs. Liang, me and Liang Sumei" Li Haifeng lied at the beginning.

"Is there anyone else present?" the police officer inquired.

Li Haifeng quickly waved her hands and said, "It's gone! It's gone!"

"Did you ask for Liang Sumei's opinion when signing the agreement?" the police asked.

"Of course I asked. Sumei said she was willing to be my wife." Li Haifeng looked a little embarrassed.

"Where were the other members of your family when you signed the agreement?" the police continued to ask.

"My husband Jiang Dachang is in the commune, and my son is outside." Liang Sumei's tone revealed her guilty conscience.

"Well, I will ask your husband to verify this matter," the police said. Li Haifeng was a little flustered after hearing what the police said, because she had no chance to discuss with Jiang Dachang what to say if the police asked.

"Who proposed the content of the agreement?" the police asked.

"It must be something we discussed between our two families," Li Haifeng replied.

"What did your son Jiang Fu say?" the police officer asked.

"Leader, what did my son say?" Li Haifeng was a little confused.

"Did you ask your son's opinion before signing the agreement? Did he agree?" the police explained.

"It's like this, my son didn't know about the agreement at all. It was all my fault. I thought Sumei was gentle and virtuous, and if she married into our family she would definitely be a good housekeeper, so I privately arranged the marriage with Mrs. Liang and the others," said Li Haifeng.

"Does Jiang Fu agree?" the police officer asked.

"My son is filial and usually listens to me. Later, when I told him about it, he blushed," Li Haifeng said with a little pride.

"Jiang Fu, is that so?" The police officer turned to ask Jiang Fu.

"Yes, yes, yes," Jiang Fu quickly confirmed.

"Have you seen the contents of the agreement?" the police officer asked.

"Never seen it!" Jiang Fugang reacted quickly after hearing what his mother said.

"Do you know the content of the agreement now?" the police continued to ask.

"I...don't know," Jiang Fu answered hesitantly.

"Didn't your mother tell you?" the police officer asked again.

"No." Jiang Fu's voice became smaller and smaller.

"Huh." The public security officer smiled and said clearly, "Mom, discuss, discuss, discuss."

Jiang Fu suddenly remembered that these were the words he had said in the morning when he reminded his mother to produce the evidence. He suddenly panicked and his uneasiness was evident on his face.

"Leader, my son really doesn't know." Li Haifeng interrupted.

"I'm not asking you, so shut up!" the police officer scolded sternly.

"Mrs. Liang, who was present when the agreement was signed?" the police officer looked at Mrs. Liang and asked.

"There were four of us present: me, Li Haifeng, Jiang Dachang, and Jiang Fu," replied Old Lady Liang.

Li Haifeng became more and more panicked as she listened to Mrs. Liang's narration. Her husband was the accountant of the brigade, and she could not drag him into this. She quickly interrupted and denied it, "Comrade leader, this old woman is lying!"

"Second warning! Please shut up when I'm not asking you! If you interrupt the interrogation again, you won't be sitting here anymore." There was unquestionable majesty in the public security officer's words.

"Mrs. Liang, did you discuss the content of the agreement with the Jiang family?" the police officer asked.

"Comrade, no, I was forced to sign by the Jiang family. Over the years, the Jiang family has relied on Jiang Dachang's position as an accountant in the production team to bully people and extort money. If they don't like a certain family, they will deduct centimeters from their official duties. Everyone in Tianwa Village knows about it. If you don't believe me, you can go and ask around!" Old Mrs. Liang was a little excited.

"You're talking nonsense! Leader, don't listen to her nonsense!" Li Haifeng's heart was filled with anger and he retorted even more strongly.

"Three warnings! Take the person out!" The police issued an order to the police officers waiting at the door.

The police officer took a few steps forward to restrain Li Haifeng and escorted her out of the scene. As she was being taken away, Li Haifeng shouted, "It's unfair, leader! It's unfair! The old woman is lying!"

"How did they coerce you?" The police continued to ask Mrs. Liang after Li Haifeng was dragged out.

"That day the Jiang family asked me to go over and sew a quilt cover. When I went there, they said they had their eyes on Sumei and asked me how much dowry I wanted. I said I should go home and ask Sumei, because Sumei is my granddaughter who was raised by me, so of course I love her as if her life. Jiang Fu is a reckless person, and Li Haifeng is domineering, so I was afraid that my granddaughter would suffer if she married him. But the Jiang family said that it was the parents' orders and the matchmaker's words and did not ask me to go back and ask. Li Haifeng took out the agreement and asked me to put my fingerprints on it. I didn't want to, so she threatened me, saying that she would ask Accountant Jiang to deduct work points from my family. If points were deducted, the whole family would not have enough to eat. We could still endure it, but they also said..." Old Mrs. Liang wiped away her tears.

"Ma'am, can you continue?" the police officer asked.

"At that time, Guangchuan was pounding stones in the mountains for the village brigade. They said that pounding stones was a job that made people feel uneasy. If you were not careful, you might break your legs by the stones! When Sumei got married, Guangchuan was transferred." Old Mrs. Liang's face was full of horror.

"You old bitch! You're talking nonsense!" Jiang Fu cursed angrily after hearing what Old Lady Liang said.

"Jiang Fu, were you present when the agreement was signed?" the police asked him.

"No...no," he quickly denied.

"Then how do you know that Mrs. Liang is talking nonsense?" the police officer asked.

Jiang Fu was speechless and fell silent.

"In other words, you signed this agreement under coercion from the Jiang family?" the police officer continued to ask Mrs. Liang.

"Yes!" Mrs. Liang answered affirmatively, and added, "I am not very literate, and I don't know how to write an agreement. On the day they asked me to sew the quilt cover, they had already written the agreement. They didn't even ask our Liang family in advance. When I went there, they just asked me to put my fingerprints on it."

"Comrade Liang Sumei!" The police officer looked at Liang Sumei and asked, "Are you willing to marry Jiang Fu?"

"It was not voluntary. That day my grandma said she would take me to the Jiang family to do needlework. As soon as I entered the door, the Jiang family asked me to get married. Jiang Fu has a bad character and I would never marry him no matter what. So I jumped into the river to refuse the marriage," Liang Sumei replied.

"Yes, public security comrade, everyone in the village knows that my granddaughter jumped into the river. The Jiang family didn't let her go afterwards. As soon as she woke up, she came to my house and asked for someone to come back to the wedding hall. My poor granddaughter, I'm so sorry. It's all my fault that I'm not a cadre. Woo woo." Old Mrs. Liang said and wiped her tears again.

"Do you know about what your grandmother said: the Jiang family forced her to sign the agreement?" the police officer continued to ask Liang Sumei.

"My grandma came back that day and looked a little strange. She seemed to have been crying. I asked her what was wrong, but she didn't say anything. She just looked at me and cried! I didn't ask any more questions after that." Liang Sumei lied.

"Oh, I feel sorry for my precious granddaughter. Sumei disappeared last night, and the Jiang family came to ask for a betrothal gift again. I thought the Jiang family had hidden Sumei and used underhanded tricks to make me lose both my money and my life. I was so angry that I said some words that were like a tantrum. But that's not true. I watched Sumei grow up, and she is the apple of my eye!" Grandma Liang's words were full of affection.

At this stage of the interrogation, the police have already had a preliminary understanding of the case. Captain Li recorded the contents of today's interrogation and brought them back to the Revolutionary Committee for report. As for the verdict, it will be left to the police to handle at their discretion.
