Chapter 1852: Talking to Zhou Tiedong

Grandma Lu felt frustrated. Just beating up Chen Bing and leaving him bedridden for a few days didn't sit well with her.

Her sister had suffered for over thirty years, and to just beat Chen Bing half to death would be letting him off too easily.

"What else can we do? Ruin his reputation, make it impossible for him to stay in Chenggu County?" she asked.

Shu Yu shook her head, "Chen Bing's reputation isn't that good to begin with. Uncle Sanzhu just mentioned that even the neighbors around the grocery store know he's not a good person. So what? He's still thriving. Besides, even if he can't make it in Chenggu County, he can go to the city or elsewhere."

Of course, she could have someone keep an eye on him and sabotage his life every time he starts to enjoy himself, even to the point where he has to beg to survive.

However, that's the most time-consuming and energy-draining last resort, and it's easy for Chen Bing to bounce back.

So, solving it from the root is better.

Hearing this, Grandma Lu knew Shu Yu had an idea and hurriedly asked, "Do you have a way to make things difficult for him?"

"I do," Shu Yu said, "I've thought about it before, but it's a bit troublesome, especially since so much time has passed. But now, Uncle Sanzhu's information is quite useful to us."

"Tell me."

"Remember how Chen Bing told Grand Aunt that everyone from his hometown died in the flood? He even brought back a death certificate for his great-grandparents to prove it. That death certificate was issued by the government, but in reality, his great-grandparents died four years later. In other words, that certificate is fake. Chen Bing actually forged official documents, and that's a serious crime. Originally, I was thinking of using this accusation to have him publicly flogged and thrown into jail, but the issue is that this happened too long ago, making it difficult to handle."

Initially, Shu Yu considered having someone beat Chen Bing half to death, but later thought it was too lenient. So, she planned to target his forgery of official documents, even though it would require some effort.

However, now that she heard about what Chen Bing did two months ago, things became much easier.

"Chen Bing conspired with corrupt officials to frame Zhou Tiedong, and that's a significant crime. Moreover, many officials back then were rebels. If we find that the officials he conspired with were also rebels, Chen Bing's crime will escalate."

Lu Sanzhu clapped his hands, "Good, let Chen Bing rot in jail."

Grandma Lu was thrilled, "Yes, this way he won't have it easy. Rotting in jail, being exiled—there's no way he can lead a peaceful life for the rest of his days."

"Furthermore, given Chen Bing's character, I don't believe he's running a clean business at the store. I'll ask Zhou Tiedong later. Maybe we can dig up more dirt."

"That way, we can add more charges," Lu Sanzhu's eyes gleamed. He knew Shu Yu was particularly cunning; whenever she took revenge, she ensured her target had a miserable time, "Openly ruining Chen Bing's life would be satisfying, but I still want to beat him up."

"That's simple enough. I'll give you the chance."

Lu Sanzhu grinned, and the carriage conveniently stopped in front of the escort agency.

After helping Grandma Lu out of the carriage, Shu Yu remained inside. Instead of leaving, she said to them, "You guys go inside and rest. I'm going to the prison to have a chat with Zhou Tiedong."

Lu Sanzhu said, "I'll come with you."

He was someone who loved to join in the fun, and Grandma Lu didn't stop him. "Let him go with you; he can assist you."

Standing to the side, Ying Xi thought, "...I feel like I'm more suited for this."
