Bringing space to the countryside, others eat bran while I eat meat
Chapter 4: Stepmother's Fig Leaf
Her face was ferocious, and her eyes were fierce, as if she wanted to bite a piece of flesh off Shen Ning alive. The image of this female demon was very different from her usual kind and virtuous appearance.
Shen Ning's face was pale, his head was hanging down, and his body was shaking uncontrollably, "Yes... I'm sorry, I didn't know. I was seriously injured these two days and have been in a coma..."
Everyone had strange expressions on their faces, and looked at Wang Aihua with a bit of contempt.
It's understandable to favor one's own children. How many stepmothers can treat other people's children as their own? As long as it's acceptable on the surface, no one will say anything.
But Wang Aihua wanted to establish herself as a kind stepmother and usually pretended to love her stepdaughter Shen Ning the most. Unexpectedly, she tortured her child like this in private. It was really a bad character and moral degradation.
Wang Aihua hadn't realized that the image she had carefully maintained had been shattered. At this moment, she needed an outlet to vent her anger. "Little bitch, I think this matter has something to do with you!
Tell me, did you team up with outsiders to steal everything? I will beat you to death today!"
As he spoke, he struggled to stand up and was about to slap Shen Ning.
Uncle Sun from the steel factory saw this and tried to stop them. "There was a thief in the house, why are you blaming the child? You are an adult, but you didn't even know that your house was emptied.
"She is just a little girl locked in a utility room, what can she know? Besides, look at her injuries."
"Bullshit! My mom beat her! There was a thief in the house, and my mom and I were both injured, but she was fine. I don't believe it!"
The back of Wang Baozhu's head was still throbbing with pain and her face was swollen and painful. The loss of the pearl made her even more anxious and upset. She always felt that she had lost the most important treasure in her life.
She yelled, "And my beads, you must have taken them! Return them to me now!"
Shen Ning looked up in surprise, his eyes reddened, "You...you lost the things my mother left for me? Call the police! Call the police now!"
Wang Baozhu was still shouting, "What do you mean by yours? That's mine! Don't pretend, give it back to me! Otherwise, when my brother comes back, I'll have him beat you to death!"
The neighbors who were watching the scene shook their heads and said, "We've called the police, but we don't know if we can ever get these things back."
Sister Li, who was standing by, finally saw the true colors of the mother and daughter. She looked tense, "Did you beat Shen Ning up on the head? You beat her up like this, but you didn't send her to the hospital and locked her in the utility room. Are you trying to kill her?"
Sister Li was originally a clerk in the street office. At this moment, she was filled with righteous indignation and was very aggressive. Seeing Shen Ning's timid appearance, she became even more furious.
"Wang Aihua! I didn't expect you to be so vicious. You fled from the countryside to the city with your two burdens and didn't even have a set of clean clothes.
After you married into the Shen family, Shen Huai treated you well. He provided a stable life for your family of three, and ensured that your children had enough food and clothing, and could go to school.
Even your job was found for you by Shen Huai after running around everywhere. But Shen Huai has only been gone for a short time, and you are torturing the child he left behind like this. Has your conscience been eaten by a dog?"
"Yes! You can only judge a person by his appearance, not his heart!"
"That's right. No wonder the old saying goes, the sting of a wasp is the most poisonous to a woman!"
People came and went in the neighborhood, talking about the matter, and completely tore off Wang Aihua's fig leaf.
Wang Aihua then realized the seriousness of the problem. He hurriedly forced a smile on his distorted face, took two steps forward, and tried to pull Shen Ning back.
"Haha, this is all a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding. Ningning, please tell me, how does Aunt Wang treat you?"
Shen Ning quickly raised his hands to protect his head. His fat sleeves slid up his arms, revealing purple marks. "It's... it's fine. Aunt Wang treats me as well as Baozhu. You all misunderstood..."
Wang Aihua's mouth twitched. "You stupid girl, what's the point of deliberately acting like this? Ah, did you say I abused you? Did I give you less food and clothing? Speak now!"
Shen Ning took two steps back with fear on her face. Before she could finish her words, Sister Li held her back and said, "Don't be afraid, Ning girl. Auntie is here..."
Wang Baozhu kept on scolding him, "Shen Ning, why are you pretending..."
At this time, the crowd shouted, "The police comrades are coming! The police comrades are coming!"
Wang Baozhu looked at the police who came to investigate. Her sharp voice was split in the air, trembling three times, and it was obvious that she was afraid. "Hello... comrade, she stole something from my house..."
Not only her, but even the onlookers subconsciously kept silent.
The crowd had automatically made way. Shen Ning looked up and saw that the leading policeman was named Zheng Hong. He was tall and handsome, with an imposing manner and full of righteousness.
But the man named Gu Changgeng who followed him had tough features and a scar on his brow bone, which made him look more fierce. If he hadn't been with the police, he would have been mistaken for a bandit leader. He glanced at the few people with sharp eyes, and the surroundings instantly fell silent. It was extremely quiet...
Shen Ning couldn't help but hold his breath and frown slightly, feeling panicked, but when he thought of his own space, he felt a little more at ease.
"Who reported the case?"
Wang Aihua rushed to the police, crying and cursing, spitting everywhere, "Comrade police, this is it..."
The police officer who came to handle the case listened attentively. The person who was with him checked it out and touched his chin in confusion, "Have you made enemies with anyone recently?"
Wang Baozhu pushed through the crowd and looked at Shen Ning with eyes that seemed to be quenched with fire. She said viciously, "It's her! She must be the one who hates us! She must be the thief. Bah! How shameless! She even stole my jade beads!"
Sister Li couldn't listen any more, and stood in front of Shen Ning, like a hen protecting her chicks, "Wang Baozhu, can you please have some shame? Let's not talk about anything else, just tell me who the jade bead belongs to?
Shen Ning has been carrying this person since he was a child, so how can he become yours? Do you think that the people in our staff compound are all blind!
You said she teamed up with outsiders to steal your things. This is also her home, and these things belong to the Shen family. Before she could say anything, you two outsiders started arguing!
Why don't you say it's your careless eldest son who steals all day long? Maybe he is the one who caused this trouble!"
Shen Ning secretly gave Li's sister a thumbs up, and looked up at the police, "Wang Baomin has indeed not come back in the past few days. He just had an argument with someone and even got into a fight a few days ago..."
"Shut up, little bitch!"
Seeing that the police officers turned their suspicion to his eldest son, Wang Aihua became completely panicked. He was also worried that his son would be implicated in the matter, so he started crying and howling.
"Police comrades, you can't wrongly accuse good people! Something is missing from my house, why don't you help me find it? You even suspect my son. What's going on?
It must be her. We were all injured, but she was the only one who was unharmed. Doesn't this count as evidence?"
At this point, Wang Aihua no longer cared about the reputation he had worked so hard to build over the years. What he lost was all the property he had accumulated over half his lifetime. He could not be careless at all and could not care about so many things.
"I was hit by a club last night. I saw that person in a daze. She was thin and small. It must be her! She hates me for signing her up to go to the countryside, so she has a reason to retaliate against me! You should arrest her quickly and interrogate her. She must have an accomplice!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was in an uproar, and discussions broke out. The eyes looking at Wang Aihua were even more contemptuous.
The man with a fierce look on his face frowned, his eyes as sharp as an eagle. He could tell at a glance that the wound on Shen Ning's head was a secondary tear, definitely not a new wound, and he began to have some doubts in his heart.
He walked towards Shen Ning, feeling very oppressive, "Comrade..."
