Chapter 56 No evidence

At dinner that night, the eldest aunt talked about Zaohua. The girl listened to Lu Jiaxin's suggestion and lay down on the bed when she got back. She didn't eat at noon or at night, and told her to marry a fool, and she would rather die.

The eldest aunt said with some distress: "I don't know what Dagen's wife thinks? This son is a treasure, isn't the daughter just the flesh that fell off the body? How can you bear to let your daughter marry a fool for the sake of your son?"

Sister-in-law Lu also heard about it in the village: "I heard that he is not a fool. He still works in the No. 2 Machinery Factory. It's just that he doesn't have a good brain and does things a bit slower than others."

But the eldest aunt didn't believe this nonsense: "If you just react a little slower than others and work in the second machine factory, are you worried about not getting a wife?"

"It is said that this family wants to help their son find a smart daughter-in-law, so that the children born in the future will also be smarter."

When it comes to being smart, no girl from all over the country can compare with Zaohua. Well, their Xinxin is comparable.

On the afternoon of the second day, Uncle Lu received a call from Captain Sun, who was in charge of the case. He came back and said to Lu Jiaxin: "There is news from Jin City that Hu Ermei did return to the ancient capital more than two months ago. She came to visit her eldest grandson who was studying in the ancient capital. She went back after seeing her grandson."

The police were leaning towards Lu Jiaxin because she had no reason to slander Mrs. Hu. But the problem is that there is no conclusive evidence other than her words, so this case is a bit difficult to handle. Although he didn't say it directly, Captain Sun expressed this meaning to Uncle Lu implicitly.

"Only this?"

Uncle Lu frowned and said, "She said that she did meet a little girl on the train. Because she didn't know her and didn't talk to her, we separated as soon as we got off the train."

Yang Jun's colleagues in Jin City and many people in the family home knew that he bought Mrs. Hu a ticket back to her hometown and put her on the train. If you say you haven't returned to the ancient capital, it will be easy to betray you.

Mrs. Hu would push her away completely, which was expected by Lu Jiaxin: "When will she come back?"

Uncle Lu said: "Today's train will arrive in three days. Don't worry, I will accompany you as soon as she arrives in Feng County."

Lu Jiaxin said: "Have the Tianjin police interrogated her?"

Uncle Lu knocked on the cigarette pole in his hand, shook his head and said, "I called for questioning, but nothing came out. But as long as she has done it, there are so many capable people in the police, they can definitely pry her mouth open."

Lu Jiaxin was not so optimistic: "Uncle, her youngest son Yang Jun is a cadre and her eldest grandson is a college student with a bright future. Unless I can find my lost watch from her and the evidence is conclusive and irrefutable, it will be difficult to open her mouth. It’s like ascending to heaven.”

Once she pleads guilty, her younger son will no longer be able to climb the corporate ladder, and her eldest grandson will not be assigned a job after graduating from college. Just for the sake of her youngest son and grandson, the old woman couldn't even plead guilty.

Uncle Lu was silent. If it were him, he would rather die than drag down his children and grandchildren. The same is true. Uncle Lu was previously worried that Mrs. Hu would commit suicide in order to avoid accountability. But the old police officer said that if Mrs. Hu did this, she would commit suicide out of fear of crime. It's stupid to do this without evidence.

Uncle Lu comforted him: "I will discuss this matter with your father and brother. Don't worry, we will definitely make her plead guilty and face justice."

The Lu family soon found out about this. Everyone was filled with indignation, but they couldn't think of any good solution.

The eldest aunt looked at Lu Jiaxin's helpless look and comforted her and said, "Xinxin, don't worry, God will definitely punish the evildoers."

Many flower growers believe that good deeds will be rewarded with good deeds and evil deeds will be rewarded with bad deeds. However, Lu Jiaxin doesn't believe this. If only God had been wiser, there wouldn't be so many injustices in the world. Seeing her silence, the eldest aunt said: "When I was young, there was an old woman in the next village who was very vicious. She would beat and scold her daughter-in-law. As time went by, the daughter-in-law couldn't bear it and threw herself into the river. Not long after, she broke both legs. Legs. The daughter-in-law she married later didn’t care about her and starved to death in bed.”

"Xinxin, that old woman almost killed you. Even if the police can't punish her, God will not spare her."

When saying this, the eldest aunt's attitude was very pious.

Lu Jiaxin didn't want her to worry about her, so she agreed against her will.

When she went to bed at night, Xiaoqiu saw her distracted look and comforted her: "Sister-in-law, the old people in the village often say that if you don't do anything wrong, don't be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door. That old woman did such a wrong thing, even if the police can't punish her. , I will definitely be haunted by ghosts in the future.”

Lu Jiaxin spent the whole day thinking about how to pry open Mrs. Hu's mouth. Ordinary methods will definitely not work, but extreme methods are illegal. Now I was enlightened after hearing Xiaoqiu's words, and I instantly had an idea.

Early the next morning, Lu Jiaxin called for Uncle Lu: "Uncle, please help me find out, is Mrs. Hu also superstitious?"

Not only the eldest aunt, but also Xiaoqiu said that the other party would be haunted by evil spirits in the future, which shows that people here are quite superstitious. Perhaps it can be said that people in the countryside were generally superstitious at this time.

"what?"

"I'm just afraid of ghosts."

Uncle Lu said with a straight face: "Jiaxin, you are a high school student and an intellectual. How come you believe this?"

Lu Jiaxin waved her hands and said, "I don't believe this, but my eldest aunt and Xiaoqiu both said that she will suffer retribution, so I want to know if Mrs. Hu is also afraid of ghosts."

Uncle Lu didn't know, but judging from his many years of experience as a party secretary, few of these old women were not afraid of ghosts.

"Uncle, I have an idea, what do you think?"

Lu Jiaxin's idea was to pretend to be a ghost to scare Mrs. Hu. As long as she, Mrs. Hu, is afraid of ghosts, she will make herself look like when she wakes up on a rainy night. Seeing her miserable appearance, Mrs. Hu will definitely pee in fear. People cannot stay rational when they are frightened, and now they can pry her mouth open.

Uncle Lu felt that this idea was not feasible: "She knows you are not dead, so how can she be afraid?"

Lu Jiaxin said: "Uncle, the watch was still on me before I held my breath, but when I woke up it was gone. She must have made sure I was out of breath before taking the watch away. She must have been dubious before seeing me."

She borrowed Xiao Qiu's words about a ghost knocking on the door in the middle of the night: "You killed me and robbed me of my money. Do you think she will be afraid when I appear in front of her in the middle of the night?"

Uncle Lu thought for a moment, let alone Mrs. Hu, even if it were him, he would probably be scared. It's just a good idea, but it can't be implemented: "You are engaging in feudal superstition, and the Public Security Bureau will not agree to it."

Lu Jiaxin said without thinking, "If they don't agree, call my dad and ask him to solve it. If you're not even willing to do this, I won't be able to think of myself as a dad anymore."
