Chapter 320: Reselling Crime

"A Qiang, people have to be responsible for their own actions. You are already a grown man in his thirties. Isn't it too late to beg me now?"

Grandma Dou said cruelly.

"Hmph! Old thing, you just need to tell them that this ginseng was given to me by you, or that you don't want to pursue my intention. Why are you complaining so much?" Dou Qiang looked at her viciously when he saw that his plea failed.

Grandma Dou was frightened by the hatred in his eyes.
"Well, you finally showed your true colors, Aqiang, I really misjudged you!"

"Oh, you are so hypocritical. I think you want to keep the wild ginseng for yourself because it is worth three hundred taels. Don't you think that you can afford it with your poor character? Aren't you afraid that you will be rewarded with a lot of money?"

"You! You, Dou Qiang, I have always loved you and helped you time and time again. Now it has come to this, you deserve it. I want to sue you for stealing my wild ginseng. I have caught you, what else are you going to do?"

Dou Qiang was grim and gnashed his teeth: "What? Are you really so heartless?"

"This is all for your own good. If you continue to act lawless like this, Yunyun and your mother will be killed by you!"

"Hahaha, I'm dying of laughter. You are probably afraid of getting implicated!" Dou Qiang laughed arrogantly.

"It doesn't matter if you think so. Brother, I can testify that it was my nephew who stole the wild ginseng. You should seek justice for me, an old woman!"

Grandma Dou turned around and gave some advice to the officer who was escorting him.

"Hmph! Mother Dou, if you have the guts, just wait for me. When I come out, you'll see what's happening to you!"

"You, you beast, do you still want to kill Auntie?"

"Bah! What kind of aunt is this? You're not as friendly as a cat or a dog. Stop pretending. I feel sick."

"Grandma Dou, we adults will make a fair judgment on your case. Dou Qiang's crime is not as simple as stealing your wild ginseng. Someone reported him for digging up people's ancestral graves and reselling burial objects. Humph, this matter cannot be easily resolved by just imprisoning him for a few days."

The person who reported him was a wealthy family in the capital, and he had affected their feng shui. At the very least, he was charged with the crime of robbing ancient tombs and reselling funerary objects. He probably won't be able to get out for at least 20 years.

"what?"

Grandma Dou's eyes went dark and she almost fell to the ground. A pair of hands from behind helped her up, "Godmother, are you okay?"

"Xiao Xi, didn't you just leave?"

"Godmother, I just saw a police officer coming this way on the street. I was a little worried about you so I wanted to come over to take a look. What's going on?"

"Alas, Xiao Xi, it's all my fault, my good-for-nothing nephew Dou Qiang. He's got into trouble again. It's all over now. Our Dou family is finished!"

Grandma Dou suddenly looked haggard and lifeless, and she kept muttering to herself.

"Godmother, this is his own fault. You can't blame anyone else. Some people would rather let him go to jail and give others a peaceful life than let him do evil outside."

Dou Qiang was also struck by lightning, like an eggplant hit by frost. How did this get discovered? Wasn't it said to be foolproof?
He didn't know yet that his partners had already sold him out and put all the blame on him. They all said it was him who instigated the crime. If they didn't go, he threatened them that he would do something bad to their wives and children at home!

Dou Qiang, covered in dust and dirt, was escorted back to the government office by his bailiffs.

When passing by Li Xier, Dou Qiang's eyes flashed with a hint of joy. He excitedly grabbed her arm and begged, "Little Xi, you're here? Come on, help your brother this time. I know you are very capable!"

Li Xier looked at him meaningfully, shook off his hands in disgust, and said coldly: "Where did this dirty thing come from? Who is your brother?"

"You... I am, I am the nephew of your godmother, Grandma Dou!"

"What does your being a thief have to do with me? I only care whether my godmother is good or not!"

"Go! What kind of relationship are you trying to establish? The boss of Heng Can Liuli is the younger brother of someone like you?"

He pushed him away, causing him to stagger. "What kind of sweet dream are you having?"

Granny Dou looked at his staggering back and wiped her tears, "Alas, Aqiang, I'm afraid I'll never see you again in this life."

Li Xier's lips curled up slightly.

Jinhui acted in a timely manner, and her godmother could now feel completely at ease.
