Chapter 396: Chapter 396: Encountering a Top-grade Person While Buying a House (Part 4) Chapter 396 Purchasing a House Meets a Top-grade Nuisance (Part 4) Jiang Huaiyu had only managed to extort twenty thousand yuan from that person, enabling her to afford buying a house. In an era when the average monthly salary was only tens of yuan, one thousand yuan was already a large sum, so where could Jiang Mengyu get fifteen thousand yuan to buy a house? Even if Gu Dongxing was a regiment commander, his salary wasn’t that high, right? Fifteen thousand yuan would take more than a decade to save without spending a cent. Where did her money come from? Jiang Huaiyu still harbored doubts about Jiang Mengyu, yet Jiang Mengyu pulled out a mini tape recorder shaped like a cigarette box. “Jiang Huaiyu, Li Chunhua, I have recorded everything you just said. Your actions have already constituted defamation against me, and I will use this as evidence to seek legal punishment for you. You might as well clean your butts and wait to go to prison.” “You’re lying to whom?” Li Chunhua didn’t take it seriously at all. Just talking a bit and now having to go to prison? “Whether I am lying or not, the law knows, and your daughter surely knows. According to Article 246 of the Criminal Law, publicly insulting others by violence or other means, or fabricating facts to slander others, if the circumstances are serious, shall be sentenced to a fixed-term imprisonment of not more than three years, criminal detention, control, or deprivation of political rights. Your recent actions here, distorting truth and slandering me, already constitute the crime of defamation. As long as I sue you, your prison time is definite.” Jiang Huaiyu was not as ignorant as her mother; she knew that slander could lead to imprisonment. She originally just wanted to gain some verbal advantage. Ever since Jiang Mengyu was sold and jumped off a cliff once, she had changed—become someone Jiang Huaiyu could no longer bully. This time, having got twenty thousand yuan from that mysterious person, she thought of using the money to make more money, and that was to let her mom run a business. Therefore, when she heard that a shop in the center of the county was up for sale, she rushed over without delay. Seeing Jiang Mengyu, she felt superior again—after all, she had twenty thousand yuan, did Jiang Mengyu have it? She was about to become the shop owner, could Jiang Mengyu do that? Carried away with her pride upon seeing Jiang Mengyu, she couldn’t resist stepping on her, taking the opportunity to tarnish her reputation. Moreover, this also aligned with the task arranged by that mysterious person: to ruin Jiang Mengyu by all means. But what Jiang Huaiyu did not expect was that Shen Qi had actually given his tape recorder to Jiang Mengyu, allowing Jiang Mengyu to gain leverage over her! She reached out trying to snatch Jiang Mengyu’s tape recorder: “Give it to me.” Mengyu snorted, “Am I stupid? I wouldn’t hand over such good evidence. You fabricate facts to slander me, and your mother distorts the truth to smear me. I would never let you off.” Hearing the conversation between the two, it seemed, that woman appeared to be slandering this girl? Right, that girl earlier said this heavenly beautiful girl flirted with a beggar, which is clearly nonsense. That youth was even calling the girl his Master. How could they be in the relationship that woman described? Also, what that middle-aged woman said, could it be untrue as well? Just words from the woman’s imagination? Otherwise, the young girl wouldn’t have rushed to snatch the recorder just because the heavenly girl threatened to sue. Li Chunhua was scared inside, but she unabashedly retorted: “You are the daughter I raised. What’s wrong if I scold you a bit? Which child doesn’t get scolded by their parents? A few spankings are normal—it’s said that a great child comes from under the stick. What did I do wrong?” Hearing Li Chunhua’s words, some people agreed. Indeed, in many rural areas, it’s believed that a great child comes from under the stick. If a child doesn’t obey, they get a beating; if one beating doesn’t work, then they receive another. Regarding children, there is nothing that a beating can’t resolve.
