The Lucky Bride Is Pretty And Delicate

Chapter 21 Internal Strife

After Liu Cheng’s father finished speaking, he pushed Liu Cheng’s mother away. “Sir, it’s all because of this evil woman. She can’t tolerate that fool. It’s all her fault. My son and I are innocent.”

Liu Cheng seemed to have found hope and said with a trembling voice, “Yes, it’s all my mother’s fault. It’s all my mother’s fault. She thinks my wife is a fool. The last time my wife was pregnant, it was also my mother who made her abort.”

Liu Cheng’s father continued, “Yes, my son is right. All of this has nothing to do with us. It’s all this evil woman’s fault. She deserves to die. It’s all because of her!”

Liu Cheng knelt down and crawled to his mother’s side. He cried, “Mother, just admit it. I know you were just being silly, but now that things have come to this, just admit it. Don’t implicate me and Father.”

The internal strife was an eye-opener. No one expected them to accuse each other like this.

Those who didn’t know would really think that Liu Cheng’s mother was the one behind the plan.

Those who knew the truth were so indignant. What they found was solid evidence, but they did not expect that Liu Cheng and his father would push the blame to a woman.

Wei Shilai had seen countless things in his life. When he saw this scene, he was stunned for a moment. At this time, this father and son actually wanted to get away with it under his nose!

Liu Cheng’s mother widened her eyes and opened her mouth. It took her a long time to come to her senses. “What are you guys talking about?”

She had suffered so much in her life for these two men, but in the end, this was what she

got.

Tears welled up in Liu Cheng’s mother’s eyes. Liu Cheng was also crying. “Mother, I’m your

son.”

Zhang Guizhi was stunned. Yes, this was her son.

Liu Cheng’s father’s expression turned cold. “You evil woman, don’t even think about making my son suffer for you. Hurry up and confess. You harmed someone, so you should pay with your life.”

After Liu Cheng’s father finished speaking to Liu Cheng’s mother, he kowtowed heavily to Wei Shilai, saying, “Your Lordship, please investigate thoroughly. All of this was done by this evil woman. It has nothing to do with us. This evil woman has committed such a horrendous crime. Please punish her so that you can give the public an explanation!”

Wei Shilai looked at Liu Cheng’s mother coldly. “Zhang Guizhi, do you plead guilty?”

Zhang Guizhi’s entire body was on the ground. She was wearing a faded cotton shirt, and her entire back was hunched. Her voice was filled with sadness. “I do, I do plead guilty. All of this was done by me. It has nothing to do with my husband and son.”

Zhang Guizhi’s body trembled as she continued, “I was sick of that fool, so I wanted to kill her. I know Madam Wei from the Liu family is a kind-hearted woman, so I got her to be the midwife. Before Madam Wei came, I fed the fool an abortion medicine. When Madam Wei arrived, the medicine took effect.”

“I hadn’t given a grain of rice to that fool for many days, and I know she definitely wouldn’t be able to give birth. When the fool died, I asked my husband to arrest Madam Wei and send her to the government. When I was about to cremate the fool’s corpse, the Liu family somehow received the news and rushed over. The fool’s corpse was sent to the mortuary. When the coroner examined the corpse, he knew that the fool had been mistreated by me.”

“The more I thought about it, the more afraid I became. At that point, I had no choice but to be bold and set fire to the mortuary. I found an excuse and tricked my son into going to Qingshui County to buy spirits and diesel. The day before yesterday, I carried out this plan and it was very successful. I know that I’ll die a death sentence, and I won’t defend myself. I only hope that my family will not be implicated.”

After saying that, Zhang Guizhi stopped talking.

Liu Cheng’s father and Liu Cheng said happily, “Yes, that’s right. That’s right.”

Liu Cheng never knew that his mother was so good at lying

But who cared, as long as he could get away with it.

If he was convicted of this crime, he would die.

As for his mother, she had lived for more than half of her life. It was only right for her to be the scapegoat.

Zhang Guizhi’s confession made a lot of sense. She looked very sincere when she confessed and explained everything clearly. Even the assistant, Zhu Zongyang, nodded at Wei Shilai.

After all, psychics could be wrong sometimes. They couldn’t afford the wrong innocent people.

Although they also believed that Liu Cheng was also involved, Liu Cheng’s mother took responsibility for everything. She also made it clear that what she said was true.

Liu Sanniang did not expect things to turn out like this either. Liu Cheng was about to be convicted, but Zhang Guizhi took the blame and wanted to protect her husband and son.

She wasn’t satisfied with the outcome. Liu Cheng’s mother was obviously the scapegoat. The real murderer was Liu Cheng!

Why, after everything Liu Cheng had done to her, did his mother still want to protect him?

Liu Sanniang could not understand.

She looked at Wei Shilai and knew that the case would end with Zhang Guizhi bearing all the responsibility alone. Liu Cheng and his father would be innocent. Even if there was punishment, it would just be a minor one.

However, for Zhang Guizhi, this was a capital crime.

The onlookers smashed things at Zhang Guizhi and cursed, “You damn woman, you’re evil. When you die, you’ll go to hell…”

“Boohoo, I haven’t sought justice for my son who was in the mortuary yet. Boohoo…”

There were a total of twenty burned corpses in the mortuary. Some were related to murder cases that had not been investigated clearly. Now, the corpses were all gone.

It was hard for the families to accept the fact that the mortuary was burned to the ground.

Madam Wei was extremely angry. She pointed at Zhang Guizhi and shouted, “Zhang Guizhi, although your daughter-in-law is a fool, she has been pregnant for ten months. What kind of a cold-blooded creature are you? You’re also a woman. You’ve given birth before. How can you do this?”

Zhang Guizhi laid on the ground, letting herself be hit, insulted, and blamed.

The assistant had already finished recording everything in the hearing and walked over. “Zhang Guizhi, think carefully. Once you confess, you’ll be sentenced to death.”

Zhang Guizhi trembled and pressed her fingerprint on it.

Liu Cheng’s father and Liu Cheng heaved a sigh of relief.

Liu Cheng was still acting. He wiped his tears and cried, “Mother, why are you so stupid? Mother, you’re too stupid. That person is just a fool.”

Liu Cheng’s mother looked at Liu Cheng in a daze. This was her son, but she couldn’t understand a word he said.
