Mrs. Zhou cursed directly, clearly tainting her innocence.
"My mother is not from Hualou. You have obviously treated us harshly. Now, even if you want to withdraw the case, you still want to spit on people with blood. Did your grandma buy it for you to do this?"
Jiang Zian was so angry that he wanted to punch someone with his fists. Zhou wanted to refute, but she heard a cold voice.
"Shut up!"
Even if Mrs. Zhou was willing to listen to a simple sentence, she would continue to curse, opening and closing her mouth but not a single word could come out.
She covered her mouth in shock and looked at Tuantuan with horror on her face, only to see that Tuantuan had turned her head and looked towards the hall.
Others may not have noticed this, but Cao Zhengning and Ji Shaoling, who had been paying attention to her, took this scene into their eyes. They suppressed the surprise in their hearts, and Cao Zhengning frowned and looked at Jiang Weiming.
"Jiang Weiming, you need to think clearly. Although you can indeed withdraw the case, according to my investigation, Jiang Weiyang and the Liu family deprived you of your expenses, forced you to leave your home, robbed you of your money, and treated you one after another. Attempted murder."
"Many neighbors have testified that they even hired murderers to kill you, hoping that you would die on the way to Fucheng. If you hadn't been lucky, your whole family would have been killed."
"Moreover, they bribed the Lu family to slander your wife's innocence. If you drop the case, the Lu family will also be acquitted. Do you really want to do this for these people?"
Not to mention Cao Zhengning, other people just shook their heads when they saw the persecution of Jiang Weiyang's family against Jiang Weiming's family. If the bystanders were like this, how could the person involved really endure it like a turtle?
In Jiang Weiming's heart, heaven and man were at war, and his reason told him not to compromise, but in his heart he kept reciting the Four Books and Five Classics.
"Loyal, righteous and filial, my parents gave birth to me and raised me. Although I am just a concubine, it is a blessing for them to grow up so big."
"The brother and sister-in-law may have something wrong, but there is no dispute between brothers. Now, now I can't respect my parents. Why don't I just withdraw the case and don't pay compensation? From now on, the two families will completely sever ties!"
He seemed to be talking to others, but also seemed to be talking to himself, which was full of self-comfort.
Everyone wanted to say that he was really a Ninja Turtle, but after thinking about it carefully, they felt that although this was cowardly, it was reasonable. Even if they felt happy for a while by killing Jiang Weiyang and others today, facing such a partial parent, support would definitely be a problem. If you are not careful, you will be stabbed in the spine in the future.
Now if the case is dropped, it will be a new favor to Jiang Weiyang and others. It does not cost money. It will really achieve morality and avoid harsh punishment.
The other officials couldn't help but nodded when they heard this.
"Although he is a bit pedantic and rigid, loyalty, justice, filial piety and brotherhood are the foundation of our country, and he can be considered as taking the overall situation into consideration!"
It’s not common to see scholars who have such a big-picture view!
The group of people nodded and praised each other, but only Mr. Li looked ashen.
"If you really want to withdraw the case today, why don't we settle the matter in court?"
Everyone's expressions froze when they heard this. Jiang Weiming could forgive through family ties, but as for Ms. Li, she and her children and husband had faced life and death several times. She might lose these close relatives and loved ones at any time, and the resentment and hatred in her heart made her want to wait. Kill Jiang Weiyang's family directly.
Now Jiang Weiming opened his mouth to withdraw the case and told her to put it down and expose it. No one could bear this!
The atmosphere suddenly became awkward, and Ms. Liu looked at Mr. Li with a fake look.
"Why are my brothers and sisters so angry? If the case is withdrawn today, the two families will have no contact with each other from now on. Even though I was wrong in the past, I am here to apologize to you. I just hope that you will show your kindness, and we will have nothing to do with each other in the future."
After she finished speaking, she kowtowed to Mrs. Li.
