When the two returned home, they found a crowd gathered around their door.
Zhang Yu's first thought was that something had gone wrong. She rushed inside and found the house in utter disarray.
She quickly stopped Li Cui, who was about to enter. "I'll pay you one yuan, help me file a report."
By midday, everyone knew that Zhang Yu and Li Cui, the grandmother-granddaughter duo, had gone to the machinery factory, leading to Liu Family members who worked there being detained.
Enraged to the point of spitting blood, Wang Pandi and Zhou Xia brought Liu Li and stormed into Zhang Yu's home, smashing everything to pieces.
They claimed this was punishment for Li Cui and her family. No one dared intervene—though it was just three women, the scene was so intimidating that no one could muster the courage to step forward.
