Chapter 784 - 782: Was She Framed?
Although the conversation was chaotic and loud, especially with several people speaking in booming voices that hurt the reporter’s ears, she could still get the gist of what they were saying.
Could it be that there’s a major reversal in the elderly abuse incident?
If this turns out to be true, just as the police officer said, her year-end bonus would be significantly large.
The reporter adopted a serious attitude, called the TV station, and asked for a cameraman to come over in preparation for an interview.
Since the cameraman hadn’t arrived yet, the reporter started chatting with them casually.
"How do you all get along with the Su Family elders? What are they like normally?"
"Not great. Old Su is very sharp-tongued and harsh. If something doesn’t go her way, she starts cursing people. Almost everyone in the village has been scolded by her. Old Su is a silent type, but very tough. Back then, Tong Yan was almost sold off by the two of them."
The reporter’s interest was piqued by this revelation. "What happened? Tell me more."
"They looked down on Tong Yan because she was a girl. They thought she was just a waste of resources, so they wanted to sell her off while Su Xiao’er and his wife weren’t noticing. Fortunately, she was found and brought back. Because of this, Su Xiao’er’s wife broke off ties with them and never returned."
It seems Old Mrs. Su is truly not a good person. It’s hard to believe there’s such ignorance and backwardness in today’s civilized society.
"Only Tong Yan has such a good heart. She’s always supported them and never stopped providing money. She even brought them to the city to live. City houses are expensive, but she didn’t mind at all and bought one just for them. Where can you find such a good girl?"
Indeed, this girl is very honest and treats the Su Family elders so well, repaying evil with good, something most people couldn’t do.
As they chatted, the cameraman arrived and they started filming the official interview.
"Dear viewers, I just received a call from the police officer..."
Thanks to prior communication, the entire interview process went very smoothly.
After the interview, the reporter still wasn’t fully convinced, because although this had been exposed on Weibo before, it hadn’t worked out successfully. So, she decided to go back to the village with this group of elders to conduct interviews.
...
A few days later, a video was broadcast on S City’s entertainment channel.
The video showed the reporter interviewing a group of simple villagers, starting at the police station and then following these villagers to their own village. The reporter interviewed almost everyone in the village, mainly asking these questions:
How are the Su Family elders as people? Do you interact with them often?
Do you know Tong Yan? How does she treat the Su Family elders?
What do you think about the online claims that the Su Family elders were abused by Tong Yan?
The answers were basically unanimous: the elders were not good people, interactions were infrequent; they knew her, she was especially good, taking meticulous care of them; the accusations were completely fabricated, and the entire village could vouch for Tong Yan’s kindness to them.
After this video aired on television, it was also uploaded online, causing an uproar on the internet.
Was Tong Yan really wronged?
No way?
Did they previously target the wrong person?
Suddenly, everyone fell silent, remembering that previously an entertainment account had exposed this, but they collectively berated it, even reporting it for spreading false information.
So, is this really true?
If something happens once, it can happen twice.
Then, several people from Sai Feng District began to speak up about the matter, and the truth they mentioned closely matched what was shown in the video.
