The police officer ignored Father Su’s words and said, "Comrade Su, you are under arrest for attempted violence, illegal trespassing, and defamation."
Father Su was stunned when he heard the list of crimes. After a while, he came back to his senses and said, "Officer, I didn’t do those! I never hit, violate, or slander others."
The policeman took out the document from his pocket and said, "Comrade Su, you were reported for breaking into Comrade Li Chenmo’s house and disturbing his children and wife. You also spread rumors about his wife and tarnished her reputation. As for the violent attempts, we have witnessed it with our own eyes just now. We clearly saw you trying to hit another person."
"Officer, but I..."
Before Father Su could defend himself, his hand was handcuffed and he was pushed away by the officer.
"You can stop talking until we get to the police station. If you are slandered, we will give you justice," the police officer said as he pushed him.
In front of the villagers’ eyes, Father Su screamed in pain as he was taken away by the police.
After they left, the villagers also dispersed, leaving only Aunt Lin, Aunt Su and Li Chenmo.
"Aunt Lin, Aunt Su, thank you for your help." Li Chenmo said with a smile.
Aunt Su waved her hands and said with a smile, "We don’t do anything. It was the police officer who did everything."
Knowing that they were deliberately irritating Father Su so he would hit them in front of everyone, Li Chenmo kept their help in mind. He would return the favor another day.
"Aunt Su, Aunt Lin, my wife has been waiting for you. Please come in," he said as he gestured for them to enter the house.
After locking the door, Li Chenmo took them to the room near the backyard, where Xiao Li’s bicycle and other items were stored.
Although it was not the first time for Aunt Su and Aunt Lin to come to Li Chenmo’s house, it was their first time coming to this area. They felt refreshed when they saw so many potted plants placed around the house. Even the air felt different in Li Chenmo’s house.
When they arrived at the room, they saw Lu Jueyu looking at the beautifully decorated bamboo baskets while checking the bride price list. Aunt Lin and Aunt Su were stunned when they saw that the room was almost filled with valuables such as thermos flask, bicycle, and sewing machine.
Seeing them standing motionless at the door, Lu Jueyu smiled at them and said, "Aunt Lin, Aunt Su, you are all here. Please come in."
Entering the room, Aunt Lin asked, "Jueyu, are these Xiao Li’s betrothal gifts?"
