Farming Space Makes Me Rich Novel - Chapter 409

Chapter 409 Gong Tianhao is Very Hurt!

When Xiao Lingyu, Gong Tianhao, and Mother Xiao came to the scene, they saw Xiao Fuqi assaulting his wife.

Mother Xiao only frowned for a moment and did not say anything.

After Officer Li stopped Xiao Fuqi, he criticized him with a serious expression, “Sir, don’t you know that hitting someone is against the law?”

Xiao Fuqi was a little afraid when he heard that, but he defended himself, “I was hitting my wife. How is that against the law?”

Officer Li said, “This is domestic violence. It’s against the law.”

“But she is a thief. I have to teach her a lesson!” Xiao Fuqi really had a lot of resentment toward Zhang Chunjiao. Why would she be so foolish to do something like that?

Officer Li said seriously, “Your wife broke the law, so there are laws to punish her, but it’s wrong for you to hit her. When we came here just now, we saw your wife tied to a tree trunk with a bruised face. We can arrest you and detain you in the police station for a few days.”

Xiao Fu’s face changed when he heard that. He said with fear and panic, “Officer, don’t. I… I won’t hit her in the future.” At this moment, Zhang Chunjiao saw Xiao Lingyu appear and immediately ran to Xiao Lingyu and knelt down.

“Xiao Lingyu, Qiuying, I didn’t steal your family’s cows. Will you tell the police that? I will never go against you in the future. I beg

you.”

Zhang Chunjiao was not stupid.

She knew that it was useless for her to plead with the police officers now. She could only plead with Xiao Zhengyang’s family. As long as they withdrew the case, she would be fine.

Zhang Chunjiao never thought that one day, she would have to lower her head to Chen Qiuying. But now, she had no choice.

She had to lower her head. She was afraid.

Xiao Lingyu, this wretched girl, had a ruthless character and a hard heart. Everyone in the village knew it.

Back then, when Zhang Xiaolan had committed a crime, Xiao Lingyu still sent her to prison despite the begging from her family. Zhang Xiaolan’s family had to pay the compensation too.

Now, it was her turn. When she thought about how she’d spend the rest of her life in prison, she was truly afraid and terrified.

Therefore, she pleaded with Chen Qiuying, whom she hated the most in her life.

However…

Xiao Lingyu did not wait for her mother to speak and said coldly, “Auntie Zhang, what you have done is against the law. It is useless for you to plead with us.

“You will be punished according to the law. We are just ordinary people. We can’t budge the law. Plus, even if we are willing to forgive you, will the law forgive you?” Xiao Lingyu’s words sounded a little harsh to the villagers. She was callous and cold-blooded.

Officer Li nodded in agreement, “Miss Xiao is right. You have committed a crime. It’s useless to plead with anyone. However, as long as you reform yourself properly, the law will naturally be lenient.”

The villagers accepted this.

At this moment, someone came over and asked doubtfully, “Sir, did Zhang Chunjiao really participate in stealing the cattle?”

Officer Li nodded and said, “The thieves have been caught, and they confessed everything. Zhang Chunjiao, you have to come with us.”

After saying that, Officer Li took out the handcuffs. “No, no, I’m not leaving.” Zhang Chunjiao struggled violently. “No, no, I’m not leaving. I… I didn’t steal the cow, I didn’t steal the cow, I was wronged.”

Zhang Chunjiao struggled and shouted, but it was to no avail. She roared angrily, “Chen Qiuying, Xiao Lingyu, you will suffer retribution. Xiao Lingyu, I curse that your child will be born with defects!”

A vicious look flashed across Gong Tianhao’s sharp eyes. This woman actually dared to do something like that. She could not be forgiven.

Zhang Chunjiao, who was still cursing, did not know that because of her words, her sentence of half a year was changed to six years. She would suffer six long years.

Xiao Lingyu knew that the child in her stomach was very healthy, but when she heard Zhang Chunjiao’s continuous cursing, anger appeared on her face.

This Zhang Chunjiao was really stubborn. She was the criminal, but she was blaming it on the victims. Laughable!

Chen Qiuying turned green with anger. She yelled back at her, “Zhang Chunjiao, if you want to talk about retribution, you will get it first. You were the one who did the wrong thing, but you made it sound like we’re the ones who committed the most heinous crimes. “You will stay in prison and pay for what you did.”

Chen Qiuying was not someone who was easy to bully. She was a capable person and also a shrewd person. However, her shrewdness was only targeted at those who provoked her. As soon as Chen Qiuying finished speaking, the villagers present looked at Chen Qiuying with fear in their eyes.

At this moment, someone came over and asked carefully, “Lingyu, did Zhang Chunjiao really participate in the cattle theft?”

Xiao Lingyu looked at the person who asked with a faint smile and asked in return, “Auntie Liu, do you think that I wronged her? Do you think the police have wronged her? Do you think I’m powerful enough to order the police around?”

Auntie Liu said with an embarrassed smile, “But Zhang Chunjiao kept shouting that she was wronged. Moreover, when the Little Cattle King disappeared, I was with Chunjiao. She didn’t have the time to commit a crime. So how could she be involved?”

When they found out the Cattle King was kidnapped, Zhang Chunjiao was chatting with a group of women. Therefore, Zhang Chunjiao didn’t have the time to commit a crime. Plus, how could a woman like Zhang Chunjiao move two large cows?

Hearing Liu Sanxiu’s words, the other women echoed, “Lingyu, Sanxiu is right. When the Cows went missing, Chunjiao was chatting with us. She couldn’t have done this.”

“That’s right, that’s right. Lingyu, what exactly is going on?”

Some of the villagers were purely curious, but others had ulterior motives. They didn’t like how Xiao Lingyu called the police for the smallest reason. It meant that in the future, the police might be called on them too. Therefore, some people looked at Xiao Lingyu with fear in their eyes.

Why would Xiao Lingyu call the police for the slightest disagreement? Xiao Lingyu glanced at the people present and asked in amusement, “So, you mean that I have wronged her? Do you think the police have framed her?”

“That’s not what we mean,” Liu Sanxiu said embarrassedly. “We’re just curious. Chunjiao didn’t have time to commit a crime, so how could she be the thief?”

Xiao Lingyu said, “I don’t know. I called the police after Little Light and his mom went missing. Then, the police found the culprit in Auntie Zhang.” At this point, she paused and said sharply, “Auntie Liu, whether Auntie Zhang committed the crime or not, you shouldn’t ask me, but the police. My cows went missing, so I called the police.

“If the same thing happened to you, would you call the police? Maybe you won’t. But if you found out your cows were stolen by your neighbor, would you be angry as I am now?

“Then, would you be magnanimous enough to forgive them?

“Zhang Xiaolan set fire to my strawberry field and caused me to lose more than 100,000. “Many people told me to forgive the culprit. But put yourselves in my shoes. Would you have chosen to forgive her? She has burned down half a year of hard work and caused great damage.

“Similarly, if your cattle were stolen and you couldn’t find it, would you call the police? Everyone knows that a calf is worth at least 600 to 700, which is equivalent to the income of a farmer for half a year.

“When I bought Little Light and Big Light, I spent more than 1000. But I believe I don’t need to explain their actual value.

“So shouldn’t I call the police? Shouldn’t I ask the police to help me find my two cows?

“The police did the investigation and tracked Auntie Zhang down as the culprit.

“If I had known this was the case, wouldn’t I have gone to demand the cows from Auntie Zhang instead of calling the police at first notice?”

Some people didn’t say it, but their expressions showed that they didn’t think Xiao Lingyu should have called the police.

These people really liked to critique others. Xiao Lingyu didn’t like this. She had to clearly express her attitude.

As soon as Xiao Lingyu finished speaking, the scene became quiet. Most people were lost in thought.

It was indeed like what Xiao Lingyu had said. Her two cows were missing, and no one knew who had stolen them. Since they really could not find them, they could only choose to call the police. If their cows went missing and later found out that they had been stolen by villagers from the same village, they would probably come to their door with knives, not to mention call the police.

As for whether Zhang Chunjiao had the time to commit the crime, that should be the matter of the police. The police stated that Zhang Chunjiao was involved in the theft, but she was not the main culprit. In that case, she didn’t need to be at the crime scene at the time of the crime.

But, how did Zhang Chunjiao manage to collude with outsiders to steal the cattle?

They would have to ask the police that.

Gong Tianhao helped Xiao Lingyu out. As they walked on the road, his eyes were filled with hatred as he said, “Yu ‘Er, she dares to curse our son. I’ll never forgive her!”

Who cared if she was a villager from Taoyuan Village? As long as she offended him, she would not be able to live in peace.

As Xiao Lingyu walked, she was shocked when she heard Gong Tianhao say our son. She explained guiltily, “Gong Tianhao, this is my son, not your son. Don’t forget that.” Gong Tianhao smiled helplessly and said, “Yu ‘Er, is there a difference? In the future, when we get married, it will be our son.”

“Married?” Xiao Lingyu exclaimed.

She suddenly stopped in her tracks. Her eyes were filled with surprise and guilt.

She had never thought about marriage before.

Gong Tianhao looked at Xiao Lingyu’s expression and asked suspiciously, “Of course, we’re getting married. Yu ‘Er, have you never thought about marrying me?”

As he said this, a thought flashed through Gong Tianhao’s mind. He grabbed her hand and asked anxiously, “Xiao Lingyu, have you only agreed to be my girlfriend and never thought about being my wife and marrying me?” When Xiao Lingyu agreed to be his girlfriend, he could clearly see the love in Xiao Lingyu’s eyes for him. He assumed they would progress from a couple to husband and wife.

However, he had no idea that Xiao Lingyu only wanted to be his girlfriend and not his wife.

When Gong Tianhao grabbed Xiao Lingyu’s hand and questioned her, Xiao Lingyu’s gaze clearly shifted. She stammered, “Uh, this… this, i… I…”

Gong Tianhao’s face was dark. He interrupted her and asked sharply, “Xiao Lingyu, tell me directly, have you ever thought of marrying me?”

Xiao Lingyu was speechless for a moment. Looking at Gong Tianhao’s serious face, she opened her mouth and said with some difficulty, “No!”

The light in Gong Tianhao’s eyes instantly dimmed and was replaced by an injury.

He could not help but let go of Xiao Lingyu’s hand and muttered, “So it was all my wishful thinking?

“That’s right. I was the one who planted myself by your side, forcing you to get used to me.

as

“All this while, I’ve acknowledged you as my wife.

“When you agreed to be my girlfriend, I was so happy that I couldn’t sleep for three days and three nights. In the future, I will give you and the child the best life. We would be the happiest family.

“But it is all my wishful thinking.”

Xiao Lingyu looked at the injured Gong Tianhao and opened her mouth. She wanted to explain, but she couldn’t say a word.

The hope in Gong Tianhao’s eyes was completely extinguished.

Then, he turned around in pain and left in large strides.

Xiao Lingyu reached out her hand and opened her mouth, wanting to stop him, “Gong…”

Then, her lips closed. Her eyes turned red.
