C228 He Deserved It
After saying that, he took out his phone and prepared to call the police.
"You, stop right now!" Chu Minghui was shocked. He stepped forward and tried to grab Qin Xuan's phone.
Qin Yuan dodged him slightly and said, "Hey, what are you doing? Since you have a clear conscience, are you afraid that I will call the police?"
Chu Zitan said, "That's right. If this Jade Pillow of yours is really bought by you using a 100 million price through regular channels, then what are you afraid of?"
Chu Zitan did not hesitate to take out her phone and dialed 110 three numbers. The call was quickly picked up.
"Hello, comrade Patrol Officer. Aren't you guys investigating the matter of the First Lady's tomb being stolen? The Ancient Jade Pillow inside is currently on our side. Please come over and take a look."
"Damn it, you really dare to call the police?" Chu Minghui turned pale with fright. He went forward to stop Chu Zitan, but it was already too late. After Chu Zitan said a few words, she hung up the phone. Of course, before she hung up, she told the police the address of the place.
Actually, there was no need for the police to come over. Chu Minghui's attitude had already explained everything.
In fact, after a few minutes, the police came.
The leader was actually Xue Lingzhi, a valiant female officer. When she entered the room, she saw Qin Yuan at first glance and was slightly surprised.
"Why is it you?"
Qin Yuan said, "Officer Xue, we meet again."
Xue Lingzhi looked at the others and then said to Qin Yuan, "Who called the police just now?"
"It was me." Chu Zitan stood up and pointed at the Ancient Jade Pillow and said, "Comrade Patrol Officer, please take a look at this."
Xue Lingzhi followed her finger and looked. At that time, her eyes were straight.
Recently, the matter of Eldest Madam's tomb being stolen had caused an uproar. Especially the Ancient Jade Pillow that was lost as a burial item. The higher-ups had already given Xue Lingzhi and the rest a death order. They had to find this precious Ancient Jade Pillow within a limited period of time and bring the tomb robbers to justice.
Therefore, Xue Lingzhi and the others had been extremely busy these past few days because of this matter. Now, they were looking everywhere for the Ancient Jade Pillow without any effort. Wasn't this Ancient Jade Pillow right in front of them?
Of course, to be cautious, Xue Lingzhi still had one of the accompanying patrolling officers to check it out. This patrolling officer was an expert in the appraisal of cultural relics. After he went forward to take a look, he nodded to Xue Lingzhi, "That's right. This is the Ancient Jade Pillow that was stolen from First Lady's tomb."
Xue Lingzhi's expression immediately changed. This matter was no small matter.
"What is the matter with you all? Why is this Ancient Jade Pillow here?" Xue Lingzhi's voice became serious.
Qin Yuan shrugged his shoulders and then pointed at Chu Minghui who was standing there. "Officer Xue, this thing is not ours. It is his."
"Yes, this thing was brought by Chu Minghui. He also said that it was auctioned at a price of 100 million. Comrade Inspector, you should ask him properly." Chu Zitan said.
Xue Lingzhi and the other Patrol Officers immediately turned their eyes to Chu Minghui.
"What's going on? This Ancient Jade Pillow was auctioned by you from the auction?"
"No, it's not... This... this is actually... " Chu Minghui broke out in cold sweat and stammered, unable to say a word.
Xue Lingzhi directly interrupted him, "Alright, this matter is of great importance, so you better go back and tell us clearly."
Chu Minghui was stunned.
"Go back? Go... go back to where?"
"Of course you're going back to the bureau with us. I think you should make things clear to our director. Let's go." Xue Lingzhi was quick and decisive. She directly took Chu Minghui away. Of course, she also took the Ancient Jade Pillow away.
It was against the law to rob tombs. It was against the law to smuggle and sell things that were poured out of tombs. It was against the law whether you sold them or bought them.
Now that Chu Minghui was taken away, it was enough for him to drink a cup.
Chu Minghui's mother, Wang Lee, wanted to stop her and defend her son, but the patrolling officer did not listen to her. He had said that if there was anything, he had to talk to the police.
Even Old Lady Chu did not dare to stop him. Although the old lady was old, her brain was not muddled at all. Since it had already reached this stage, she naturally could see it too. This grandson of hers had indeed bought this Ancient Jade Pillow from a grave robber at a low price and gave it to her as a gift. Now, it was only natural for him to be arrested and taken away.
The old lady was very disappointed in her heart. This grandson of hers had always been a sensible person. Why did he do such a foolish thing now? He even dared to fool her.
After Chu Minghui was taken away, Wang Lee and Chu Rongrong almost collapsed onto the ground. They became so ashamed that they wished they could find a hole to hide in.
Chu Zitan dragged out her voice and said, "What's wrong, Aunt Second Uncle? Just now, she proudly said that your son bought the most expensive gift for Grandma. She did not hesitate to spend 100 million. Why did she not say anything now? Has she become a mute? "
"Aiyaya, I thought Chu Minghui really had such filial piety. So it turns out that he was just fooling his grandmother, everyone, and putting on an act? He actually made a thing that was used by a dead person to celebrate his grandmother's birthday. Wasn't he going to curse his grandmother to death? This is outrageous." Chu Zitan said.
Han Ying immediately exaggerated, "That's right. Second Brother, your son is too outrageous. If you are unwilling to buy a birthday present for the old lady, then just say it. Why do you have to give the old lady something used by a dead person? This is really unlucky. "
" Aiya, fortunately, my brother-in-law saw through it. Otherwise, the thing that the dead person used would have been given to Grandma. Grandma would sleep on it every night. Wouldn't she have nightmares every night? Sigh... Just thinking about it makes me feel scared. "
"You... all of you shut up." Wang Lee was so angry that her whole body trembled.
"Did we say something wrong?" Chu Zitan raised her chin and said.
"Enough. Stop arguing." The old lady angrily shouted and slammed the crutch in her hand onto the ground.
No one dared to make a sound.
The old lady said angrily, "I really didn't expect that my favorite grandson would use something used by a dead person to make a birthday gift for me. Is he hoping that I would die early? Is he that filial to me? Second Brother, this is the good son that you taught? "
The Chu couple were frightened. They hurriedly walked to the old lady's side and said," Mom, Mom, don't be angry. Minghui only did this because he was muddle-headed. He didn't do it on purpose. "
" Get lost. Get lost. I don't want to see you anymore. " The old lady was still angry. She immediately ordered the couple to leave.
"Mom..." Wang Lee almost cried and almost knelt down to plead for the old lady. Although the old lady was old, she was still the leader of the Chu Family. If the old lady was angry, she could take back the family property that she had given them. She could even chase them out of the Chu Family, just like how she chased Chu Gengnian's family out in the past.
"Get lost, get lost..."
"Alright, alright, let's get lost, we'll get lost now. Mom, don't get angry, don't get so angry that you'll hurt your body."
Chu Shennong and his wife rolled out dejectedly.
