Unlimited Resources: Raising a Minister with a Space Supermarket-Chapter 467 - 423: Countersuit (Part 3)

Lu shi said angrily, "If you ask me, tonight, set their house on fire, and it will ease the anger!"

Her son’s two front teeth were knocked out, and now he would surely be laughed at when going out. Her son wasn’t even married yet, and these Sun family people were too ruthless. Was tearing Sun Manyue’s sleeve really worth this?

As if bullying someone, when the girl is wronged, shouldn’t she bear the grievance for the sake of reputation and then humbly come forward to marry her off? Why doesn’t this Sun family follow the usual pattern?

Truly barbarians from the Northern Land, impulsive and thoughtless. With all this chaos, neither family will benefit.

Sigh, had she known, she wouldn’t have given her son this idea. Who knew those Northern Land people would be so reckless, not considering the girl’s reputation at all?

Truly miscalculated!

"Brother Jiang, listen to what these people are discussing in the house! This family is full of tricks!" Cui Dacheng and Jiang Han had already reached the Jiang family’s courtyard, but the Jiang family, engrossed in their lively conversation inside, didn’t notice anyone had arrived.

Jiang Han might not be a particularly upright person, but he still despised people like the Jiang family.

"You two, go in and bring out Jiang Haifu!" Jiang Han said coldly.

The Sun family accused Jiang Haifu, so they only planned to arrest Jiang Haifu this time.

Cui Dacheng, having heard enough, now knew inside out the dealings of the Jiang family. Following Jiang Han’s instructions, he immediately strode into the Jiang family house.

Seeing Cui Dacheng enter, Lu shi sensed something bad was about to happen, and with an apologetic smile, she stepped forward, "Officer, we are not suing the Sun family anymore. My son says we all live in the same village, see each other often. There’s no need to make things so hostile. We are dropping it. Sorry to trouble you, officer, to come all the way here."

Cui Dacheng smiled slyly, saying, "You’re not suing, but the Sun family girl went to the county government to accuse your son of molestation, so our brothers were ordered to bring him for questioning.

Can your son walk on his own here? We came on foot, so maybe you two need to help carry him to the county government?"

Cui Dacheng’s meaning was clear: they weren’t going to carry Jiang Haifu. If his parents refused to send him, he would have to walk himself.

Cui Dacheng’s words made all the Jiang family members present change their expressions, especially Jiang Haifu, whose face turned as pale as a sheet. He curled back onto the bed, looking at Jiang Dingcai pleadingly, "Dad, I won’t go!"

Jiang Haifu understood that if he went, he might not return alive.

Jiang Dingcai forced a smile harder than crying, looking at Cui Dacheng, "Officer, you must be joking with us. We spared the Sun family, how could they counter-sue us?"

Cui Dacheng brushed off Jiang Dingcai’s attempt to get close, cold-faced, holding the blade across Jiang Dingcai, "Who’s got time to joke with you? Are you going to carry or not? If not, we’ll drag your son."

"We’ll carry, carry..." The image of Wang Zhanming’s mother being cut down at the village entrance by Jiang Han flashed in Jiang Dingcai’s mind, making him panic with fear that Cui Dacheng might also swing his blade without regard.

"What are you saying? Carry what?"

The old lady Jiang nudged her younger son and then looked at Cui Dacheng, "Officer, we are family with the Sun family, relatives. My eldest grandson married the Sun family’s granddaughter. We are true relatives. It was just an argument yesterday, and both families were angry, so we went to file a complaint.

But now, we’ve calmed down overnight. We are dropping it, for we are relatives. How can we just go to court?

The Sun family is probably still angry, haven’t cooled off yet. I will send my eldest grandson to the Sun family later to reconcile. They won’t file a complaint either.

Minor matters like ours can be resolved privately. No need to bother the officials."

As Jiang laotai finished speaking, she quickly fished out a silver coin from the cabinet under the bed and stuffed it in Cui Dacheng’s hand, insisting he take the silver for drinking and eating meat.

Cui Dacheng tossed the silver back to Jiang laotai. Though he loved money, he wouldn’t accept just anyone’s silver.

"If you have money, save it for a good last meal for your grandson!

Brothers, come in and arrest him!" Cui Dacheng had figured out that being polite would not get Jiang Haifu out, and Lord County Magistrate was still waiting at the county government, so they dared not delay too long.
