Chapter 77 - 77 Unrepentant
Half a month later, the Yue Family got the result they had been waiting for.
Due to the severe infanticide of female infants in the past two years, the city’s leaders paid extra attention to this case.
Ma Jinbao’s family happened to be used as an example at this time, and all procedures moved very quickly.
Eventually, Ma Zhuzi admitted to murdering the infant girl, although he continuously argued that other members of his family were unaware of it.
Considering various factors, the authorities ultimately decided to accept this claim.
Ma Zhuzi was sentenced to death and executed immediately.
The rest of Ma Jinbao’s family was released.
This case immediately caused a sensation in the surrounding cities and villages, and the trend of drowning female infants abruptly stopped.
In the past, everyone felt that it was up to the family to decide whether a child should live or die after being born.
Only now did they realize that killing an infant also required paying with one’s life.
At such a critical moment, even those who strongly preferred sons to daughters didn’t dare to take the risk of eating a peanut for committing such a heinous act.
On the day she heard the news, Yue Xiaofang, who had not shed tears for a long time, cried heartily.
“Mom, I want to watch with my own eyes as that beast gets what he deserves!”@@novelbin@@
Lin Chunju agreed and took the eldest and Yue Qingqing to Jinshan Village.
On the execution ground, Ma Zhuzi was escorted to the execution site.
He looked as if he had aged more than twenty years, his eyes staring blankly at the ground like those of a dead fish.
Li Zhaodi and Ma Jinbao, as family members, stood far away on the outer circle, watching the scene unfold.
“Dad!” Ma Jinbao shouted heartbreakingly, and Ma Zhuzi looked at him, his lips trembling.
Only the executioner standing next to him could hear clearly, Ma Zhuzi was only repeating two words.
Evil deeds.
It was unclear whether he was talking about himself, or Ma Jinbao, or the actions of the entire family.
A gunshot startled a few birds flapping at the edge of the ground.
Li Zhaodi watched her husband fall backward, emitting a terrified scream.
Only at that moment did she realize that she was not dreaming.
Was it merely for killing someone considered worthless, yet… indeed, a life had to be paid?
Why was this world so unfair!
Ma Jinbao, with his head lowered, slowly walked his mother back, and from a distance, he saw the Yue Family also standing outside the field.
Yue Xiaofang coldly watched them, silent.
“You bitch, it’s you! You killed my husband! Why don’t you go and die, go die!”
Li Zhaodi wished she could rush forward and tear Yue Xiaofang’s face apart, but her son firmly stopped her.
“Mom, she’s not our daughter-in-law anymore, and touching her means going to jail.”
Moreover, Yue Jiandong was watching them closely, ready to intervene; had they really attacked, they definitely would not have benefited.
Hearing the word “jail,” Li Zhaodi immediately dared not make a move, staring hatefully at Yue Xiaofang instead.
The two families passed by each other, Ma Jinbao suddenly snickered.
“Yue Xiaofang, don’t feel too pleased with yourself, my family may have been unlucky, but how much better can you get? You’re just a worn-out shoe I played with, and you even got your in-laws killed. I see who dares marry you now.”
“Without a man, you’ll never have children in your life.”
The former statement didn’t faze Yue Xiaofang at all, but the latter remark turned her eyes blood red as she thought of her child who had died just after birth.
She wished she could perish alongside Ma Jinbao.
Lin Chunju stopped her daughter, “Ma Jinbao, there is divine justice, and doing evil will meet with retribution, isn’t Ma Zhuzi a perfect example?”
Ma Jinbao clenched his teeth and said nothing more, walking away with Li Zhaodi.
Yue Qingqing looked at this man’s retreating figure, reflecting that there are always such people in the world, beastly in human guise, yet they never learn to repent.
Although Ma Zhuzi took all the blame, the murderers weren’t just him.
This family should pay the price for their actions.
A sharp glint flashed in Yue Qingqing’s eyes, and if one looked closely, it disappeared without a trace.
As Ma Jinbao walked along, he suddenly felt a chill throughout his body, an indescribable sensation entwined him, with an inexplicable weight on his neck.
This was the karma Yue Qingqing had set upon him.
