Chapter 329 The Wicked Mother-in-Law Will Die a Blissful Death
"Enough, enough! This is just a story of a wicked mother-in-law condoning her son's beatings of his wife. Everyone, put away your overflowing sympathy and don't let yourselves be used as pawns."
Upon hearing this, the onlookers immediately fell silent. Was there some hidden story?
Lu Dongju was anxious; how could she bear the reputation of being a wicked mother-in-law?
"Don't listen to this policeman's nonsense. I treat my daughter-in-law very well, and my son and daughter-in-law are very loving. It's all because this shameless policeman won't let me see my daughter-in-law."
Qi Tongwei clapped his hands and laughed heartily, "Everyone, use your brains! A woman from out of town marries into this area and gives birth to three daughters in three years. Do you really believe the mother-in-law will treat her daughter-in-law well?"
A woman from out of town gave birth to three daughters in a row. Everyone in the crowd knew that in eastern Guangdong, people preferred sons. It was practically impossible for her to treat her daughter-in-law well after that.
"In my opinion, the police are right. The son hit his wife, she was hospitalized, and the son was afraid of being arrested by the police, so the mother-in-law turned the tables and tried to take her daughter-in-law back to make a big deal out of it."
"That's probably why the police wouldn't let the old woman in. This old woman is shameless enough to directly slander the police."
Of course, there are also some different opinions.
"A couple's quarrels in bed are often resolved before they even get out of bed. The police have no reason to prevent the mother-in-law from seeing her daughter-in-law. Family conflicts can be resolved by talking things out."
"I think the police are meddling too much. There's an old saying, 'It's better to tear down ten temples than to break up one marriage.' If the son and daughter-in-law have a conflict, it's only right for the mother-in-law to come and mediate. How can they prevent them from seeing each other?"
The onlookers split into two factions and began arguing fiercely.
"It's easy for you to talk when you're not the one suffering. You'll know how much it hurts when you get punched. If it's enough to get you hospitalized, it must have happened more than once or twice."
"It's inevitable for couples to have disagreements when they live together. It's understandable if someone loses their temper for a moment. Just apologize and it'll be fine."
"Easier said than done. Let me throw a couple of punches at you."
"Are you crazy? They're a married couple. Do we even know each other?"
"You're the one who's sick. She's a woman from out of town, she doesn't even have any family members to back her up, so she can be beaten up whenever she wants."
"You saw it, and you still want to hit me? People like you just spout nonsense and spread rumors."
"Ugly people are always causing trouble. Use your brain! If the beating hadn't been so serious, why would the police have intervened? A woman from out of town trying to boss the police around? Idiot."
"You're a rude and uncultured lunatic. Someone like you will never find a wife in your entire life."
"I'll never find a wife in my entire life, and I'd never even look at a gossipy woman like you who can't tell right from wrong."
"Gentlemen, gentlemen, please calm down and say less, please say less."
If someone hadn't intervened, the man and woman would have definitely started fighting.
"Song Ting, come out here! Come out and explain yourself! Did this policeman bully you?"
Lü Dongju had Song Ting figured out, knowing she wouldn't dare disobey her. After all, Song Ting had no relatives and didn't want to go back to Chenjiazhai to be beaten, so she had no choice but to join her in falsely accusing the police.
"Song Ting, Mom made you some braised pig's trotters at home. Come out and come home with me. Don't be afraid, there are many people here who will stand up for you."
Qi Tongwei couldn't help but laugh, "Song Ting, come out quickly, Daddy has prepared a whip and stir-fried chili peppers for you."
The onlookers realized what was happening and burst into laughter; this policeman was really wicked.
Enraged, Lü Dongju rushed over, grabbed Qi Tongwei's clothes, and screamed, "Give me back my daughter-in-law! Give me back my daughter-in-law!"
Qi Tongwei raised his hands high, giving them a taste of their own medicine. After all, shameless people are invincible.
"Everyone come quick! The wicked mother-in-law won't let her daughter-in-law eat, and the cat ate the duck leg, falsely accusing her of stealing it."
"My daughter-in-law is not allowed to leave the house. She has to stay at home doing laundry, cooking, taking care of the children, and serving her in-laws, husband, sister-in-law, and distant nephew, all because he is a boy."
"My daughter-in-law gave birth to three daughters, and my mother-in-law curses her granddaughters every day, calling them a money-losing burden. My mother-in-law gets annoyed whenever she sees her granddaughters, and she won't even comfort them when they cry."
"My daughter-in-law has a hard life. She defied her parents and married into this family from afar, and her life is even more miserable than that of a kitchen maid in the old society."
"Everyone, please be the judge! What kind of mother-in-law treats her daughter-in-law like this? She's worse than a slave! If she dares to do this, the whole family will beat her up. Is there any justice left? Is there any law left?"
Qi Tongwei transformed into a shrew, leaving onlookers dumbfounded; they were certain this was a police officer.
Lan Ying got goosebumps all over. "Qi Zhi, you should tone it down a bit. You're a grown man, after all."
Wu Dali was a little confused. Was this still the Qi Zhi he knew? When did he go to Thailand?
Song Ting was also completely bewildered. Was this the kind of good policeman who wholeheartedly served the people? He was just repeating my lines.
As if her true colors had been exposed, Lü Dongju was furious and jumped up and down in anger, shouting, "Don't listen to his nonsense! It's all slander!"
Even with all his relatives joining in, Qi Tongwei remained firmly blocking the doorway, preventing anyone from getting in.
"Everyone saw it, right? This is clearly a case of a guilty conscience. The wicked mother-in-law, along with her extended family, bullied her daughter-in-law from out of town. As a police officer, it is my duty to uphold justice for the weak."
Suddenly a man shouted, "Thank you for your hard work, officers!"
This statement instantly resonated with some people.
"Thank you for your hard work, officers."
"Thank you for your hard work, officers."
"Thank you for your hard work, officers."
Qi Tongwei liked this dramatic effect: "Comrades, you've worked hard serving the people!"
This made Lü Dongju and her extended family feel immense pressure, as if countless eyes were watching them and gossiping behind their backs.
After much anticipation, Song Ting finally emerged. Lan Ying helped Song Ting to the door. Song Ting's face was deathly pale, her lips were purple, and she looked extremely weak, as if a gust of wind could blow her over.
Song Ting glanced at Lü Dongju and all those distant relatives—all of whom were people who had bullied her. She gritted her teeth and made up her mind.
"I am Song Ting, a woman from out of town who has given birth to three daughters. Ever since my first daughter was born, my husband has been beating me. I want a divorce and I want to go back to my parents' home, but his whole family beats me, saying they'd rather die than let me go home."
"I'm so grateful to Officer Qi for allowing me to escape this time. Thank you, thank you so much!"
With tears streaming down her face, Song Ting could finally speak out about the grievances she had endured for three years. She told herself to be strong and brave. Officer Qi had risked his life to rescue her from Chenjiazhai, and she could not let him down.
The daughter-in-law's words were like a heavy punch to Lü Dongju's face. The onlookers quickly sided with Song Ting, since a weak woman always receives more sympathy.
Qi Tongwei immediately seized the opportunity to incite the crowd, raising his arm and shouting, "Everyone, shout with me, 'Evil mother-in-law, may you die a horrible death!'"
With the police taking the lead, the onlookers became enthusiastic and transformed into angels of justice.
"May that wicked mother-in-law die a horrible death!"
"May that wicked mother-in-law die a horrible death!"
"May that wicked mother-in-law die a horrible death!"
