There is Room For Abandoned Women In the 1980s

Chapter 271 Moral Kidnapping

“Comrade Wu, it seems that what she just hit me and said has not been recorded in this record?”

After Zheng Xinyue read it, she returned the transcript to Comrade Wu with a smile and raised her objections in a low voice. Comrade Wu took the transcript and looked at Zheng Xinyue deeply. The little girl was so calm.

"good."

 He nodded approvingly and ordered the clerk to write down everything that had just happened.

Zheng Xinyue glanced at Wang Guizhi with the end of her eyes. Her eyes were as cold as ice in March, making Wang Guizhi feel cold all over. Is she serious?

Wang Caihong watched as the clerk handed the re-filled transcript to Zheng Xinyue. After reading it, she signed with a pen and was extremely surprised. She heard Zhang Hongbin say that Zheng Xinyue was illiterate and they had no common language. So what's going on now? Could it be that Zhang Hongbin lied to him?

“Okay, we have officially accepted your report and will proceed with legal procedures.”

Comrade Wu took the signed transcript from Zheng Xinyue and spoke to her seriously, in a completely business-like tone.

Wang Guizhi over there was frightened. What do you mean? Is this going to sentence yourself?

“Comrade Wu, could you please explain to me how many years of imprisonment can be imposed for intentional injury and rumors and slander?”

Zheng Xinyue handed the transcript to Comrade Wu and asked him with a smile, her voice ensuring that Wang Guizhi could hear him clearly.

“Intentional injury ranges from one to three years depending on the severity of the injury, while spreading rumors and defamation is punishable by a fixed-term imprisonment of not more than three years, and the two crimes combined are at least three years.”

Comrade Wu understood what Zheng Xinyue meant and gave her a brief explanation. The more Wang Guizhi listened, the more frightened she became. Her hands and feet were so cold with fear that she was trembling all over and could not say a word.

　　Why should I be sentenced to prison for saying something that is not serious? Just a slight push and you have to go to jail?

“Zheng Xinyue, my aunt didn’t do it on purpose. Please show your respect. She is so old and her body cannot bear the stress of being in prison.”

Wang Caihong initially thought that Zheng Xinyue was trying to scare people to save Chen Sili, but now she saw that it was wrong! She was really ready to sue her aunt and came over to plead with her.

Even though saying nice things to her makes me feel like I've eaten a fly, it's still better than letting my aunt go to jail!

“That’s right, I’m old and I talk nonsense, so don’t blame my aunt. Tell Comrade Wu not to pursue me. I still have my parents-in-law and children to take care of, so I can’t go to jail!”

Wang Guizhi was no longer arrogant. When she heard her niece begging for mercy on her behalf, she also begged Zheng Xinyue to help her with snot and tears.

 “I’m sorry, you have broken the law, I cannot show favoritism!”

Zheng Xinyue had a cold expression on her face, as if she wanted to get to the bottom of it.

“As long as you don’t hold the aunt accountable, and the aunt doesn’t hold the woman accountable for beating me, can we make things even?”

Wang Guizhi suddenly thought of the reason why she came to the Public Security Bureau, and her heart trembled. Could it be that Zheng Xinyue was embarrassing herself because of Chen Sili's matter? He immediately stated that he would not pursue Chen Sili.

"Hey, my sister-in-law slapping you twice is a public security issue. Because you spread rumors and insults, the most she can do is to be detained for fifteen days. Why should I give you fifteen days in exchange for three years? We accept the punishment and treat each other as one. I'm sorry, I've decided to sue you."

Zheng Xinyue sneered at Wang Guizhi, who was so smart and self-righteous, and finished her words coldly, expressing her attitude of pursuing the matter to the end.

"Zheng Xinyue, if my aunt goes to jail, she will be fired from her workplace. What will happen to the whole family? Can you be kind? Do you have to kill people to stop?"

Wang Caihong became anxious, accused Zheng Xinyue of being selfish, and began to kidnap her morally.
