The police went to the cemetery in the morning to investigate, and furthermore, the two couples had confessed the previous night.
So they showed up at noon.
"There are two options. They’re willing to pay compensation."
"The other is fifteen days of detention."
Mrs. Fu was naturally unsatisfied.
"They desecrated my husband’s grave! How can they only get fifteen days of detention?"
"They’ve repaired the grave. We went to the cemetery and confirmed it. The exposed part was just because the soil wasn’t packed down tightly, and it happened to get washed away by the heavy rain a few days ago."
"Besides, the grave had already shown signs of erosion from the rain before this."
Mrs. Fu remembered that she hadn’t been back in a year.
’If they can only be locked up for fifteen days, then what’s the point?’
"How much are they offering to pay?"
"One hundred."
"That won’t do. Five hundred, at least. After they did something so despicable, I’ll need to buy a new plot. Rebuilding the grave costs money, too. And what about compensation for my family’s emotional distress? Look, I won’t take anything less than five hundred."
"If they don’t agree, I’ll keep pressing the issue. If you can’t resolve it here, that’s fine. I’ll petition the municipal government. I’ll petition the military. I’ll petition—"
Listening to this, the officers felt their heads about to explode. They quickly cut her off, "Stop, we’ll go talk to them."
Only then did Mrs. Fu relent.
When the detained Eldest Fu heard that Xu Zifeng had the audacity to demand five hundred, he was livid.
To say nothing of Yan Hongwei.
But when the police repeated Mrs. Fu’s words to them...
The faces of Eldest Fu, Third Brother Fu, and their wives turned deathly pale.
They also remembered the status of Fu Mingxue’s husband.
It wasn’t out of the question that if this dragged on, they could get a few years in prison—the mere thought made them tremble involuntarily.
