My dad's marriage into my family made me rich, and my fierce yet adorable older sister spoils m

"Da Ya, Si Ya! Go to the brigade headquarters and call Secretary Zhao and the militia company commander here!"

Guan Hongying stared intently at Guan Yaozu, whose face was deathly pale, and spoke in a cold voice.

"Today, I will uphold justice even at the cost of my own family! I'm going to the commune police station to report you!"

Upon hearing this, the entire room fell silent.

No one expected that Guan Hongying would actually make up her mind!

He actually had the heart to report his own mother and younger brother to the police!

The surrounding villagers were furious! They felt that it was really upsetting not to lock these people up!

But they didn't expect that Guan Hongying would make up her mind the next second!

Upon hearing this, the people around cheered!

"Good! That's how it should be!"

"Those who dare to steal money from military families should be locked up!"

"If you ask me, we should just shoot them!"

Upon hearing this, Guan Siya grinned and agreed.

"Okay! I'll go right now!"

After speaking, she quickly grabbed Guan Daya, who was standing next to her, and ran out.

A hint of appreciation flashed in Lin Chuan's slightly narrowed eyes, then he raised his eyebrows in surprise.

He was initially worried that Guan Hongying would let the group go because of their blood ties, but he didn't expect that the mother he had chosen would be so tough.

"Alright! Mother, leave it to me!"

Lin Chuan curled his lips into a cold smile, then kicked a bundle of hemp rope, usually used to tie firewood, to his feet.

"Fellow villagers, please lend a hand and tie up these criminals who are robbing military personnel's families. Don't let them escape!"

The surrounding villagers were naturally happy to help.

"Okay!"

"I'll make sure they're tied up tight!"

In just a short while, many more villagers had gathered around to watch the spectacle.

After all, in an era lacking entertainment options, who wouldn't want to watch a good show?

"Guan Hongying! Have you gone mad?!"

The old woman, who was lying on the ground, was truly panicked. She stared at Guan Hongying in disbelief, never expecting that she could be so ruthless.

But upon seeing Guan Hongying's icy gaze, she felt a sudden surge of inspiration and immediately screamed in her lisping voice.

"I'm your own mother! Yaozu is your own brother! You want to take us to the police station?! This is unfilial and disobedient! You deserve to be struck by lightning!"

"Struck by lightning?" Guan Hongying sneered, two lines of tears sliding down her cheeks, but her back remained ramrod straight.

"When my eldest sister died, you were eating dumplings with the money you got from her! Now that you can't survive, you come here to steal the allowance my daughter earned with her life, and you even want to seize the houses the state allocated to military families! If lightning strikes, you beasts will be the first to be struck dead!"

At this moment, several strong young men rushed up with ropes.

"Let me go! I'm Guan Hongying's younger brother! Who dares to kidnap me?!"

Guan Yaozu struggled desperately, but at this point, he was nothing more than a fat pig pinned to the chopping board.

"Go to hell with your own brother! Stealing money from our brigade's military dependents, even if it's the King of Heaven himself, he'd be tied up!"

A villager kicked Guan Yaozu right behind the knee and quickly tied him up like a tightly wrapped rice dumpling.

Seeing this, Ma Cuihua tried to throw a tantrum and bite someone, but was slapped so hard by Aunt Wang next door that she saw stars. Aunt Wang then stuffed a rag into her mouth and quickly tied her up.

Seeing their own son and daughter-in-law being beaten, the old lady and Jinbao were extremely anxious, but all they could do was wail and cry on the sidelines.

"What are you all doing?! What are you all doing gathered here?!"

Just then, Zhao Tiezhu, the brigade secretary, led several militiamen carrying homemade guns, panting as they pushed through the crowd and squeezed in.

He had just finished processing Guan Siya's onboarding at the threshing ground and was in a good mood when he heard that something had happened to the Guan family. He quickly led his men over and happened to run into Guan Siya on the way.

"Secretary Zhao, you've come at the perfect time!"

Lin Chuan immediately went to meet him, and then began to "convict" him in a loud and clear voice.

"These four people claim to be from Wangjiazhai. This morning, the old lady instructed her grandson to steal our military dependents' remittance slips. You witnessed this yourself. As soon as this was exposed, this afternoon her son and daughter-in-law stormed into our house, trying to seize the military dependents' housing and steal their allowances and pensions!"

Lin Chuan paused, his tone becoming extremely serious.

"Secretary, this is a crucial time to crack down on speculation and profiteering, and to combat class enemies! Their behavior, at best, is burglary; at worst, it's deliberately disrupting the lives of military families and undermining morale! They are utter class enemies!"

As soon as these serious accusations were leveled, Zhao Tiezhu's face turned ashen.

In the 1960s, destroying military families' homes and robbing military families' property were considered heinous crimes!

If this happened in their Linhe Brigade, not only would his term as secretary be over, but the entire brigade would be criticized!

Moreover, Guan Siya is now a hero who helped the brigade solve a huge problem, and the Guan family is now a key target of the brigade's protection!

"How dare you!"

Zhao Tiezhu slapped his thigh and pointed at Guan Yaozu's family, who were tied up like pretzels on the ground, and shouted angrily.

"You've come to our Linhe Brigade to engage in class sabotage! I knew something was wrong with you all a long time ago. You're all fat and bloated, and who would believe you're refugees?! You're clearly just vagrants committing crimes on the run!"

"Waaaaah... Ughhhhhhh!"

Ma Cuihua wanted to explain, but with a rag stuffed in her mouth, she could only shake her head and sob desperately.

"Secretary Zhao..."

Encouraged by Lin Hai and Lin Chuan, Guan Hongying walked over and bowed deeply to Zhao Tiezhu. Her voice was stern but without any remorse.

"I don't recognize them! They're just here to rob us! We beg the brigade to stand up for us military families and take them to the commune police station!"

Hearing Guan Hongying's personal assessment, Zhao Tiezhu felt completely at ease.

As long as the victim does not acknowledge the marriage, this is not a family dispute, but a purely serious criminal case!

"Militia Company Commander!" Zhao Tiezhu roared!

"arrive!"

Upon hearing this, a burly man immediately stepped forward.

"Take these bad elements who have been disrupting the families of military personnel and take them all to the cowshed behind the brigade! Send two armed men to guard them! Tomorrow morning, I will personally lead a team to take them to the commune police station in an oxcart for investigation!"

Zhao Tiezhu issued the order directly and without hesitation.

"yes!"

"No...no way! Secretary Zhao! Guan Hongying! You heartless wretch! You're really going to send your own mother and your own brother to a labor camp!"

The old lady understood what the police station and the case filing/investigation meant.

In this day and age, being charged with "robbing military dependents" and sent to the police station would mean at least ten years of forced labor in the desolate Northwest!

In the end, you might even get shot!

Intense fear and extreme anger instantly clouded the old woman's mind.
