Chapter 3: The female protagonist will use her cheat-like abilities to do things against the country...

003

When Jiang Lai returned home, her father, Jiang Bolin, had already come home from get off work. Upon seeing the two of them, he muttered, "What happened?" while going back to his room to get his own clothes for Ye Anguo to change into.

Jiang Lai was shivering from the cold when she found the original owner's room and quickly went to change her clothes. In the 1970s, the weather in October was already quite cold. In fact, Jiang Lai had already sneezed several times on the way back.

While Jiang Lai and Ye Anguo were changing clothes, Liu Aihua returned: "Where's Lai Lai?"

“I came back soaking wet, and I’m going back inside to change.” – Jiang’s father, Jiang Bolin.

Liu Aihua said "Oh," and immediately went into the kitchen to make ginger soup. Jiang Bolin followed closely behind: "Why don't you seem surprised?"

"I saw them at the market just now." Liu Aihua told Jiang Bolin while washing ginger, and then shooed Jiang Bolin outside: "Don't stand here, go outside and wait for Lai Lai to come out and ask her what's going on."

Liu Aihua was simmering ginger soup in the kitchen, washing and preparing vegetables for lunch, when she heard a loud "bang" outside before the soup was ready. She heard her husband angrily shouting, "This is outrageous! Let's go to the police station right now!"

"What's wrong? What happened?" As soon as Liu Aihua heard the words "call the police," she rushed out with a kitchen knife in hand.

Jiang Bolin was furious and revealed that Su Erniu had deliberately dragged Jiang Lai into the mess. Well, Liu Aihua, whose temper was even more explosive than Jiang Bolin's, immediately grabbed a kitchen knife and rushed to the Su family, leaving only one sentence: "You guys go to the police station first, I'm going to the Su family."

"No, Comrade Ye, please take Lai Lai to the police station to report the case. I'll go to the Su family first." Jiang Bolin gave the order and ran after Liu Aihua. Jiang Bolin and Liu Aihua were a loving couple and understood each other's personalities well. Jiang Bolin didn't dare let Liu Aihua act impulsively on her own.

Seeing Liu Aihua leave with a kitchen knife, Jiang Lai was afraid something might happen and quickly chased after her. After Jiang Lai left, Ye Anguo couldn't be left alone at the Jiang family's house. So the neighbors saw Liu Aihua rush out with a kitchen knife, followed closely by Jiang Bolin, Jiang Lai, and Ye Anguo.

The Su family, Su Erniu's mother, is the same mean woman who was gossiping at the market earlier. She had just said that Jiang Lai came back soaking wet and had no innocence when Su Erniu and Shi Cheng also came back soaking wet. Feeling humiliated, she fainted from anger and was taken back to the Su family by Su Erniu and Shi Cheng.

It wasn't that Shi Cheng was particularly good to Su Erniu. One reason was that Su Erniu wouldn't let him leave before, saying that she had been seen and touched and that he had to take responsibility. Another reason was that although Shi Cheng seemed like a scoundrel, he was also a kind person. When he saw that Su Erniu's mother had fainted, he took the opportunity to help send her back to the Su family.

When Liu Aihua arrived, Su Erniu's mother, Lai Langli, had just woken up. Before she could even ask about the situation between Su Erniu and Shi Cheng, Liu Aihua had already stormed into the door with a kitchen knife.

"You surnamed Lai, come out here..." Liu Aihua was too aggressive, holding a kitchen knife as if she was about to fight someone to the death. Neighbors followed, some to watch the commotion, and some to show their concern.

Fortunately, the Jiang family and the Su family lived close by. When Liu Aihua went to their door, Jiang Laiye and Anguo had already caught up with them. Jiang Bolin even snatched the kitchen knife from Liu Aihua's hand immediately.

This knife is no joke. Not to mention whether Liu Aihua might get carried away in the heat of the argument and pull out a knife, the real danger is that Liu Aihua might not even have that intention, but the other party will walk right into the knife. In that case, forget about getting justice; your own family might end up dead first.

Jiang Bolin felt this was no joke. Su Erniu had managed to drag Jiang Lai into the water, so what if she tried to frame Liu Aihua? Liu Aihua was holding a kitchen knife, and if the other party was ruthless enough to run into the knife, they couldn't bear the consequences.

"Old Jiang, what are you doing?" Liu Aihua said with dissatisfaction as the kitchen knife was taken from her hand.

“If you’re going to talk, then put down the knife. What if someone runs into the knife in your hand? Wouldn’t you be carrying the blame for someone’s death?” Jiang Bolin deliberately made it sound more serious.

“Yes, Mom, don’t make the first move. If you do, even if we’re in the right, we’ll be in the wrong,” Jiang Lai quickly added, trying to persuade her.

It can only be said that Jiang Bolin really understands Liu Aihua. When Liu Aihua heard this, she thought to herself that Su Erniu dared to drag Jiang Lai into this mess, and might actually dare to run into her trap. So she put the kitchen knife away carefully, so that they wouldn't have any chance of extorting her.

The fact that Liu Aihua didn't have a knife in her hand didn't hinder her performance at all. She pounded on the Su family's door, shouting, "You, surnamed Lai, come out here! I was wondering why your Erniu suddenly wanted to be friends with my Lailai. You're up to no good! My daughter is being coaxed by your Su Erniu. I always save the best food for her. What have I done to wrong her? Dragging someone into the river, isn't that intentional homicide? I'm telling you, this isn't over. I'm going to the police station to ask how your family will be sentenced for intentional homicide."

"Aihua, what are you doing? Why are you both drowning and committing murder?" a neighbor asked.

“Isn’t this intentional homicide? This morning, Su Erniu came to find Lai Lai, saying she wanted to go to the mountain to pick chestnuts. But when we got to the river, she dragged her there to chat for over an hour, and then she dragged Lai Lai into the river. Look at my Lai Lai’s hand.” Liu Aihua grabbed Jiang Lai’s hand and rolled up her sleeve to show them the shocking red marks on Jiang Lai’s hand: “Look how much force Su Erniu used to pull my Lai Lai’s hand like this.”

“Look at these marks, they couldn’t have been made without a deadly attack. Su Erniu was determined to kill my daughter.” Liu Aihua’s eyes welled up with tears as she spoke. “Everyone in our neighborhood knows that Lai Lai fell into the water when she was little and is terrified of water. If it weren’t for the soldiers who happened to be passing by and rescued her, I might have had to bury my daughter.”

Liu Aihua was genuinely terrified. The original Jiang Lai did indeed have a fear of water because she had nearly drowned as a child. She was the one who could swim. What Jiang Lai couldn't say was that Liu Aihua had indeed lost her son. The original owner's life was truly lost in that river, which was only about forty meters wide. In Jiang Lai's eyes, no matter how much Liu Aihua made a scene today, it wouldn't be excessive.

So when Liu Aihua talked about this, Jiang Lai cooperated by letting the neighbors see the shocking marks on her hands, because she knew that even if they reported the case, without other witnesses and without Jiang Lai suffering particularly serious injuries, it would not constitute the crime of assault due to the minor nature of the offense.

In such situations, the police will generally only mediate and try to get the two parties to reach a settlement. Even if Jiang Lai doesn't reconcile, they can only impose administrative penalties on Su Erniu, at most detaining her for a few days.

But the law couldn't punish her, Jiang Lai. She wasn't about to let her off so easily; she wanted to make sure she died a horrible death.

Things did indeed develop as Jiang Lai had expected. The original owner's skin was delicate, but to be honest, she wasn't the type to scar easily. It was just that because her skin was fair, any trace of a scar would be very noticeable. However, since they had returned home from the riverbank more than half an hour ago, according to the original owner's normal constitution, those marks that looked a bit scary earlier had already faded away.

The reason why Jiang Lai's hands still look so shocking, red and swollen, is entirely because Jiang Lai did something to them. She had her wrists treated a second time when she was changing clothes in the room.

So, everyone saw how badly Jiang Lai's hand was injured, especially Ye Anguo and Shi Cheng. Seeing that Jiang Lai's wrist, which was just red and swollen a moment ago, was now bruised, and that their brows were furrowed so tightly they could trap a fly, they felt extremely disgusted with Su Erniu.

They were too far away before, and when they saw someone fall into the water, they instinctively jumped in to save them. They didn't see the specific circumstances of Jiang Lai and Su Erniu falling into the water, but they could see their situation in the river very clearly.

Jiang Lai and Su Erniu fell into the water together, but Jiang Lai was initially in the direction of Shi Cheng. However, Su Erniu pushed her towards Ye Anguo, which both of them witnessed. In addition, the red and swollen bruises on Jiang Lai's wrists were really scary. If Su Erniu had a favorability calculator, she might have heard a series of -1-1-1.

In short, because of Liu Aihua's attack, everyone knew that Su Erniu had dragged Jiang Lai into the river. Su Erniu became famous, and the community was in turmoil.

Jiang Lai didn't care about how Liu Aihua and Su Erniu's mother, Lai Langli, argued, or how Su Erniu tried to justify herself. After Jiang Lai called the police and gave a statement at the police station, she put the matter aside.

Because she has more important things to do now, and thanks to Su Erniu, Jiang Lai has a super advantage that is very beneficial to her, herself, the country, and society.
