Stepmother Reborn: Dad, my mom hasn't hit me for three days

After sending the others away, Li Jianguo and Ergou stayed at the police station to get information. Since they couldn't see anyone, they hired Lawyer Qin to help them see someone.

Soon, Lawyer Qin sent a message, "She's fine in there. Don't worry."

How could Ergou not be worried? He was going crazy with anxiety. But no matter how anxious he was, he could do nothing but worry.

A week after this incident, Zhuzhu returned to the capital after finishing filming. She learned that Zhang Xiuhua was in trouble. She was so anxious that she could only beg Ergou to find a solution, "You have so much money. If you donate money to the country, they might let my mother go."

Ergou thought she was too naive. "This is not about money. This is a big deal. And if you bribe her, it might backfire."

Li Jianguo held down the flustered Zhuzhu and said, "Don't give me any advice. This matter is handled by the police, we can't interfere."

Zhuzhu was not listening at all. She began to regret, "If I had known I would not be an actor, but a judge instead."

Ergou sighed and said childishly again! So what if he is a judge? He should avoid hearing cases involving his relatives?

A month and a half later, the Intermediate People's Court of the Capital held a public trial. Except for Jidong who was still busy with his experiments in the laboratory, everyone else came.

Ji Lin and Tong Shuyu were the ones who sent the waiter in the store to Jiang Province to inform them. When they learned that Zhang Xiuhua was in trouble, they immediately asked for leave and came back.

Zhuzhu and Yaoyao were sitting together. When they saw Zhang Xiuhua being escorted out, tears started to fall from their eyes. "Mom has lost weight! It's only been a short time."

Less than two months later, Zhang Xiuhua cooperated with the investigation and told the story of how she got the gun. She did not expose the intermediary. She had resold large quantities of goods before. If this matter was investigated in detail, her space would be exposed. The excuse she made was that she had resold tanks and cannons before, and saw the guns among them, thinking they could be used, so she kept them for herself. She did not dare to sell them for fear of accidents. This time, she saw her colleague being insulted, and she was so angry that she fired the gun.

She met with lawyer Qin and learned that she might have to go to jail for three years. She was actually relieved. Because she did fire the gun, and the Benz had died from excessive blood loss. She only had to go to jail for three years, which was already a pardon. She was very content. But it was too boring in the detention center. She couldn't get anything from the space, so she just leaned against the wall and looked out the window with lifeless eyes. She was bound to lose weight. The food in the detention center was terrible. She would not eat again after filling her stomach. She had some fat in her stomach before, but now she just lost weight.

The court conducted a public trial of 14 principal offenders and 10 accomplices. The court sentenced four ringleaders of the criminal gang to death, deprived them of their political rights for life, and confiscated all their personal property; it sentenced 10 accomplices to death with a two-year reprieve, deprived them of their political rights for life, and confiscated all their personal property. At the same time, the court also ordered the defendants to compensate the victims for their losses and apologize to the victims.

Zhang Xiuhua shot and killed the mastermind Daben in order to save her colleague. She was considered to be acting bravely and was not guilty, but she was convicted of illegal possession of a gun and was sentenced to two years in prison.

Daben's family was very dissatisfied with the result and expressed their intention to appeal.

"She killed someone, but she only got two years in prison. It's totally unjust!"

Zhang Xiuhua looked at her family, especially the children, all of whom were there except Jidong. She smiled at them, "I'm fine. Don't worry! We can meet when I get to the prison."

While the case was under trial, she was unable to meet with her family, but after the verdict was announced, her family could visit her.

Soon Ergou and his group saw Zhang Xiuhua talking on the phone through the fence.

Several children were crying, even Yaoyao, the calmest one.

"Mom? Are you okay? You've lost weight." Baolin was the first to grab the receiver.

"I'm fine. You have to train hard and don't fall behind. The golden period of skating is only these few years. You must not miss it." Zhang Xiuhua was worried about Baolin. This child has always been easily influenced by the outside world. If he is in a bad mood, he may delay training. Baolin nodded with tears in his eyes.

Ergou picked up the phone and said, "Godmother, I'll ask them if they can bring something with them. Don't worry, I'll come to see you often."

After he finished speaking, Youcai snatched the phone from him, "Mom! You must be fine. After you get out of prison, don't work anymore. Trains are too dangerous!"

Zhang Xiuhua was stunned, then laughed, "Youcai, you called me mom?!"

Youcai wiped his tears, crying and laughing, "I've wanted to call you mom for a long time, I'm embarrassed."

It was after this incident that he realized that things are unpredictable. Although Aunt Zhang looked healthy, accidents could happen at any time. He didn't want to have any regrets.

Zhang Xiuhua nodded with relief, "I know, you are a good child. You have to listen to Zhenzhen. Mom is fine here. They are also taking care of me."

Zhang Xiuhua's words were not false. The prisoners in the same cell with her were all petty thieves and had never killed anyone. When they saw a murderer like her come in, they were a little scared of her.

After Youcai finished speaking, it was Yaoyao's turn. "Mom, you must be well. If something like this happens again in the future, take care of yourself first."

It's not that she was cruel, but she felt it was not worth it. The person who was rescued was alive and well, but her mother had to spend two years in prison, unable to watch TV or eat delicious food. This kind of life was more tormenting than the hardship and cold she had to endure as a child.

Zhang Xiuhua heard this and comforted her, "Mom doesn't regret it. If I had really chosen to stand by and watch, I could indeed be living well now, but Mom's conscience would always be uneasy. My heart would be sick and I would torture myself. Then I wouldn't live very long. Besides, this time it was Xiao Chen and the others who pleaded for Mom, and it was judged as a heroic act. Otherwise, Mom might have to stay in prison for a longer time."

She was so anxious at the time. If she had stabbed him with a knife, she wouldn't have to go to jail!

She had a nice idea. In fact, when she thought about it carefully, she felt that using a knife was even less reliable! If she really stabbed him with a knife, Daben would not suspect that the knife was fake and would just take it away. Then it would not be Daben who would die, but her!

Yaoyao saw that she was smiling, and thought that she really didn't regret it. Her eyes became wet unconsciously.

Because of this interruption, the phone was snatched away by Jilin. Jilin has always been slow, so it was understandable that it was his turn last. "Mom, I have found a job. I will give you the money I earn later. Don't do this job anymore. This is a crappy job. It's killing me."

The train salesman was actually able to connect with the desperado, and when the waiter came to him, he thought the other party was a liar.

This child has always been slow and doesn't know much about the family's property. Zhang Xiuhua knows that he is filial and gives him face. "I know, but your second brother makes money for mom, so mom doesn't need your money. When I get out, I won't do it anymore."

In fact, she didn't have to submit her resignation in person, as the Railway Bureau probably didn't want her anymore.

Zhenzhen picked up the phone, "Mom, I will come to see you often. Next time I will bring August over."

If she could see August, my mother-in-law would probably be in a better mood.

"Don't tell August, the child is too young." Zhang Xiuhua didn't want to be regarded as a bad person by her granddaughter, but she couldn't explain to her that the police had arrested the wrong person.

Zhenzhen couldn't help crying. August was so young, and after not seeing her for two years, she would definitely forget her mother-in-law. Her mother-in-law would rather August forget her than let them bring August here.

Tong Shuyu took the phone, "Aunt Zhang, I will take good care of Jilin, don't worry. Two years will pass quickly."

Zhang Xiuhua nodded, "Okay!"

After the children finished their calls, Li Jianguo took over the phone and said, "You must behave well in prison and strive for a reduced sentence. I have asked Lawyer Qin, and if you behave well, the higher authorities will reduce your sentence. Maybe you will only have to serve one year in prison and then you can be released."

As long as you obey the law, you can generally get a reduced sentence, but the degree varies. If you have made significant contributions, you can get your sentence reduced by half at most. If Zhang Xiuhua exposed the space, she would probably be acquitted immediately. But she didn't want to put herself in danger.

Zhang Xiuhua smiled and nodded, "Okay!"

The prison guard came over and urged, "Time's up! Go back quickly!"

Zhang Xiuhua put down the phone, smiled and waved at them, and the children smiled and waved back. When she left the room, the children hugged each other and burst into tears.
