"Your mother is getting old, and her mind has become irrational. When she speaks, she tends to be a bit extreme. I apologize on her behalf."
"It was wrong of her to steal your belongings. We will take responsibility for the consequences."
"Rest assured, your clothes—once the event is over—I’ll go with your mother to her family and get all of them back."
"After all, we’re all family. It would look bad if it escalates too much. We’ll be the subject of jokes in the village for no reason. It’s better to minimize the matter, as family harmony brings prosperities."
"If things get too ugly, won’t it be hard for you to explain when Fu Yu returns?"
Before Fu Yu’s father said these words, Jiang Xin actually thought there might be some good in this family.
At least every time she quarreled with Mrs. Fu, Mr. Fu was sensible enough, not biased towards Mrs. Fu just because she was an outsider.
But now, hearing Fu Yu’s father’s words made Jiang Xin feel her previous thoughts were simply laughable.
Yes, no matter what, the old couple is truly a family.
They’ve lived together for so many years; there must be some emotion and familial bond there, especially having raised so many children. They’re bound to support their own.
To them, Jiang Xin was merely an outsider.
Jiang Xin was no fool. Clearly from Mr. Fu’s words, he wanted her not to hold on to this matter.
To hurry up and disperse everyone in the yard?
Jiang Xin, all alone, should just sit here and be bullied for no reason?
Today, she called the police, and never planned to let this matter go easily.
Forgiving Mrs. Fu is impossible.
Today, not only will she retrieve her clothes, but she will also pursue Mrs. Fu for the crime of theft.
Thinking of bullying Jiang Xin? That’s simply out of the question.
Jiang Xin directly coldly stated, confronting Mr. Fu:
"Are you threatening me?"
"When Fu Yu returns in the future, so what? No matter what, when he comes back, I’m definitely going to divorce Fu Yu."
"To me, your family members are ultimately just strangers I happened to know."
"Right now, the person who’s had things stolen, who suffered property loss, is me, and no one can interfere with my decision."
After Jiang Xin said these words, she no longer paid attention to the old couple.
She directly turned her head and said to the police officer handling the case nearby: Fınd the newest release on novęlfire.net
"I choose not to reconcile. Everything should be dealt with by the law to severely punish the wrongdoer."
Once Jiang Xin said these words, there was no turning back.
She firmly finalized the matter.
The police officer, upon hearing Jiang Xin’s words, nodded seriously and proceeded to handle the case justly and meticulously.
Initially, they thought it was merely an ordinary family dispute.
Because the elderly were dissatisfied with the daughter-in-law, they just secretly crawled through the window to steal the daughter-in-law’s clothes to give her niece from her family.
This matter can be considered both significant and trivial.
Fu Mu could face charges of theft for entering the premises.
Alternatively, it could be handled as a family matter, resolving through mediation.
But now, Jiang Xin was indeed enraged by Fu Mu and Fu Fu’s words, choosing not to reconcile.
It can be understood.
The villagers watching the commotion did not find much to say about it.
After all, in their hearts, Jiang Xin can be considered good-tempered. If such a thing happened to them, they might react more aggressively.
Throughout, Jiang Xin faced Mrs. Fu’s hysteria without uttering a swear word, maintaining her composure.
Substitute them, this psychological quality would absolutely not be there.
Estimating, if such a thing happened to them, they’d probably go insane.
Perhaps they would directly go forward and fight.
Someone like Jiang Xin who uses legal means to protect her rights is indeed rare.
Otherwise, how can one say city folks are smart?
If it were them, losing something, fearing jokes if word gets out, they could only grit their teeth and endure.
Bearing the pain without a word.
The bitterness is only known to them.
So, Jiang Xin’s behavior of addressing the matter directly by calling the police is worth learning.
