Chen Pan was not satisfied with Wang Dabao's verdict, but the moment Wang's family learned that Wang Dabao was sentenced to life imprisonment, they all wilted like eggplants hit by frost.
When the verdict came out, old lady Wang knew she was powerless to change the situation, and she was so disheartened that she threatened to commit suicide in the village office.
The old lady wanted to use her life to create public opinion, so that everyone would condemn Chen Pan and force Chen Pan to withdraw the lawsuit.
Although, in this situation, whether Chen Pan withdraws the lawsuit or not, it will not affect the verdict of Wang Dabao. But as long as Chen Pan withdraws the lawsuit, the Wang family will still have a chance to appeal.
What if the judge is a good person and spares Wang Dabao?
Old Lady Wang held on to her last glimmer of hope and made a big fuss in the village office, forcing all the village officials of Houling Village to stand on her side.
She would scold anyone who went against her or spoke for Chen Pan. Lu Youcai, as Lu Yan's biological father and the village chief of Houling Village, was scolded the most harshly by her.
Now that the matter had come to this, and it concerned the rest of Wang Dabao's life, Old Lady Wang was no longer pretending. She was now completely without her usual calmness and elegance. At this moment, she was even more unreasonable than a shrew, making a scene in the village office. This made the younger village officials like Lu Youcai very passive and difficult to deal with.
Respecting the old and loving the young is a traditional virtue of Huaguo. Village cadres are officials, big or small, and they must set an example. Therefore, even if everyone knows that what Old Lady Wang did is wrong, Lu Youcai and his people cannot be serious with her or argue with her because of her age and poor condition.
Not only can they not be fierce to her, they have to coax her and give in to her. Otherwise, if Old Lady Wang really died in the village office, it would not be a trivial matter.
In such matters, it is either the east wind that prevails over the west wind, or the west wind that prevails over the east wind.
Lu Youcai and his people retreated again and again, and they were at a disadvantage after enduring again and again. Old Lady Wang, who took advantage of her, not only did not restrain herself, but became even more aggressive and did even more powerful things.
"Oh, I don't want to live any more... My poor grandson, who will save you? The villagers have no conscience! Lai Fu led everyone to drive away the Japanese and bandits. Today, their descendants are ungrateful and help Chen Pan, the little fox!"
"Wuwu, everyone bullies us orphans and widows, I don't want to live any more..."
"I have done good deeds all my life and helped the children in the village grow up. Now I can't do it anymore. It's a nuisance to live any longer. Wuwu, no one takes me seriously. I Death is the best way to clean up the mess."
"But don't be complacent. After I die, I will turn into a fierce ghost and curse you ungrateful people. You have harmed my great treasure. I will not let you go even if I become a ghost."
"I will also tell your ancestors so that they will not recognize you as their unfilial descendants in the future! You have no conscience!"
Old lady Wang had a vicious face and was eloquent. Without using a single dirty word, she scolded everyone present so hard that they could not raise their heads.
Seeing that no one dared to stop Old Lady Wang from being naughty, Widow Chen followed suit, with a bruised face and gaping teeth, sitting with Old Lady Wang, imitating Old Lady Wang's way of being naughty, acting, and cursing.
