"Comrade, my two children were forced into this situation. They can cooperate with your investigation, but we in Qishui Brigade will not allow them to be convicted. You can take them away from Qishui Brigade, but you must make it clear that our entire brigade has been poor for generations. Many of our elders in the village were soldiers who fought against the Japanese. We can't raise any bad apples. We in Qishui Brigade will not do what those bad elements do. You can rest assured, comrade."

The brigade leader first threatened, then intimidated, and finally made a big promise, saying everything he could to get the children away, but only if they cooperated with the investigation and their beloved children were returned safely. If they wanted to convict their children, the Qishui Brigade would fight to the death.

Wang Shoujiang smirked. He was truly amazed. This was the first time he had ever seen people from a production team treat a few educated youths so well. His Qishui Brigade was truly one in a million.

"Comrade, don't worry. We're just asking the two people involved to come back with us to give a statement and cooperate with the investigation. I'll personally deliver it to the guesthouse tonight. As long as they haven't committed any crimes, our police will never wrong any good comrade."

"Alright!" The captain didn't waste any words and turned to Bai Nuo and Fang Meng, shouting, "You two little brats, behave yourselves and make a statement. Cooperate with the police officers in their investigation. I'll go get you letters of introduction now. Staying in the county for a few more days won't hurt. Your Uncle Lu and I are here at home."

Secretary Lu slapped him hard again, but after glancing at the bald head of the Niu family, which had been ripped bald by his daughter-in-law, he could only nod reluctantly.

The parents are responsible for cleaning up the messes their children make; it's an old rule, and he understands!

Bai Nuo and Fang Meng rode their bicycles to the police station by themselves, and after arriving at the police station, they separated from the people from the Qianniu Brigade.

Actually, this matter is easy to resolve. Fights between the two sides are extremely common in the village. Basically, unless there is serious injury, the police will not be called. Even if the police are called, they will only mediate.

But Bai Nuo refused to agree to settle the matter privately. In fact, no sooner had they left than the brigade leader and Secretary Lu went to the commune to file a complaint.

The police officer was instructed by Bai Nuo to sneak into the brigade leader's office to make the call when no one was paying attention, because she wanted to make these people from the Qianniu Brigade famous in the commune and also steal their chance to be selected as advanced workers this year.

It's not for any other reason than that she doesn't like the Niu family. They've been poaching her talent right under her nose. If she doesn't teach them a lesson they won't forget, she'll be letting herself down.

The advanced work points of a production team are worth a certain amount of money in the next year. Because of this family, the Qianniu Brigade lost a lot of money. As country folk who would rather split every minute into three pieces, they couldn't help but hate the Lao Niu family to death.

They don't care whether their Qianniu Brigade will be selected as the advanced production team this year; they only believe that it was the people from the Lao Niu family who caused them to lose the selection for advanced production team.

Even when it comes to the common interests of the entire group, it's still unreasonable.

The people from the Qianniu Brigade were detained for seven days in the detention center on charges of provoking trouble. They were subjected to strict ideological education every day, especially the propaganda about the persecution of women in the old society. The middle-aged woman was not only to receive education, but was also sent to a farm in Xialin Village, Fuxing County for three months of reform.

"Is this enough, you two? I really did my best during the three months of farm reform. I almost used my father's connections. A rural woman with no education or manners, just a good lesson is enough. It really didn't require him to use his connections." An Yun sat on a chair in the small conference room of the county public security bureau, crying and looking at the unscrupulous couple opposite her with a fawning expression.

Using connections to send a middle-aged woman who had offended her younger cousin to the countryside for reformation was nothing to An Yun; it didn't even stir her conscience.

Those born into prominent families in Kyoto are naturally cold-hearted. This cold-heartedness doesn't refer to their feelings towards anyone, but rather to their treatment of complete strangers.

For a powerful and influential family that has always been at the forefront of politics, the first thing to eliminate is that useless kindness.

The only things they value are their own family members and the interests of their clan.

Bai Nuo curled her lips and rolled her eyes. No one would believe that this guy didn't have some selfish motives.

"Speak up, what exactly do you want by calling us from the Sandao Street Police Station to the County Public Security Bureau? If you have something to say, say it quickly, I still need to rush back to the brigade for dinner!" Bai Nuo just wanted to go through the motions and get the "advanced" award from the Qianniu Brigade. She guessed that her captain uncle and secretary had already finished complaining to the commune by now, and she and Fang Meng could go home for dinner.

An Yun gritted her teeth and looked at that brat. It was a good thing that her brain had recovered, but it was also harder to coax her. She couldn't scold her, and she couldn't beat her. She could only coax her gently.

"Sis, this is the reward you got for drawing the criminal suspect portrait for the Public Security Bureau last time. I specially applied for the highest reward for you, two hundred yuan!" An Yun smiled and took out a rather thick envelope from her bulging bag and handed it over.

Bai Nuo raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised. She hadn't paid any attention to the portrait after giving it to Fang Meng, since it was none of her business. She hadn't expected there to be a follow-up reward.

but……

Bai Nuo took the envelope containing twenty ten-yuan bills, raised an eyebrow, and tilted his head to look at An Yun with a playful expression: "Cousin An, you should just say what you have to say. Trying to bribe me with money won't work. You should know that I've never been short of money since the day I was born. Besides, my great-uncle said that all his property belongs to me."
