At this time, Qianluo returned to Xuan Miao'er's side, and whispered with a smile: "Miss, the third master really went to ventilate the news, but fortunately I blocked it." ”

Xuan Miaoer smiled and didn't speak, and just when she wanted to look at the court again, Hua Jiye walked to her and Xuan Wentao's side.

Hua Jiye didn't say much at this time, just called Uncle to Xuan Wentao, and then made eye contact with Xuan Miao'er, and the three of them continued to look at those people in the court.

The county magistrate frowned and patted the hall again: "Xuanma's family, this is above the public court, Hugh has to talk nonsense to open the topic, you first tell me how you explained to Wang Maozi and his wife." ”

Ma Shi was taken aback by the name of the county order, and quickly knelt down again and said: "Master, don't listen to their nonsense, I said at the time that they should pay attention, who has a kid who can't afford to bring it to us, I didn't say anything else." ”

Wang Maozi sneered: "Heh, auntie, you really dare to speak, if this kid sells it, why will it cost dozens of taels of silver, right? Who doesn't want it? Besides, what you said at the time was, there is a cheaper kid, cheaper, don't you still have to buy it?"

Ma Shi hurriedly defended: "I said that if people are poor, we will also give some relief, but instead of buying, did I say I wanted to buy?"

Ma's niece Erqiao looked at Ma and said, "Auntie, we are juniors, you have put us into the yamen, and you are still shirking responsibility, you are disrespecting the elderly." ”

"You white-eyed wolf, I've been good to you, I'm disrespectful to the old? Why am I disrespectful to the old, you steal a child and deceive me, kidnap and lead our family into the yamen, you are justified. Ma also blushed with the other party at this time.

"Auntie, don't let your tongue loose when the wind is strong, when we take the child to you, you gave you money, and let us go secretly at night, are you above board? Don't you have a ghost in your heart?" Ma's niece's tongue was not bad at all.

The county magistrate turned to Ma and asked, "Xuan Ma, what they said is the truth?"

At this time, Ma Shi found that his niece and his two daughters were not simple, he couldn't follow these two people, and then he went around it.

She kowtowed to the county order again: "Master Mingjian, there are not many heirs in my family, this is not a good thing, and the two of them are afraid of people's jokes, and they have been reluctant to raise children, I let you come at night, but also to make them acceptable, the silver just said to give the child's family some relief, that is not to buy a child." ”

Wang Maozi pursed his lips: "I didn't say to buy it, what's the difference between it and what I bought?"

Ma raised his hand and swore: "I swear, sir, I want to take advantage of it, but I don't dare to do anything illegal." ”

The county magistrate was silent for a while, let them be quiet, discussed with the master on the side, and then patted the shock: "The facts of this case are clear and clear, and the verdict will be announced in the court." ”

Everyone was silent and looked in the direction of the prefectural order.

The county order continued: "Although Xuanma did not directly buy and sell children, her crooked thoughts led to the occurrence of this case, Nian Zai is a first offender, and it is for her son, and she is also dedicated to the child, and she is sentenced to a fine of five taels of silver, handed over within three days, and released on the spot." Wang Maozi and his wife distorted the meaning of Xuanma's family, stole children, and sentenced them to three years in prison and a fine of ten taels of silver. ”

As soon as Ma heard the release in the hall, her heart finally let go, but when she heard the five taels of silver, her heart hurt again, and she kowtowed to the county order and prayed: "Master, when the child was brought here, I took out several taels, and the child was sick and tossed a lot of money, and now our family really doesn't have five taels of silver." ”

The county magistrate looked at Ma's: "If there is no silver, then be imprisoned for three months." ”

When Ma heard about the detention, he was so frightened that he hurriedly said, "We will pay the silver." ”

Wang Maozi and his wife knelt on the ground and wept bitterly and shouted that they were wronged, but they also knew in their hearts that they were not wronged, they just stole the child.

The county order announced the closure of the case, and then asked the officials to press Wang Maozi and his wife to go to the prison, and they retired from the court.

Xuan Wenbao and Feng helped Ma up.

The officials who were guarding the door also retreated to both sides.

Seeing that he had withdrawn, Hua Jiye said to Xuan Wentao: "Uncle, I'm just here to see, if it's okay, I'll go back." ”

Xuan Wentao understood what Hua Jiye meant, it was not a family now, and Hua Jiye was not suitable to participate in the affairs of this old house: "Well, you go back first, it's okay." ”

Xuan Miao'er just smiled at Hua Jiye and didn't speak, and it was not appropriate to say too much at this time.

Hua Jiye also looked at Xuan Miaoer with a smile, and then said goodbye and left.

Xuan Miao'er said to Xuan Wentao: "Dad, shall we go in?"

Xuan Wentao nodded: "When I went in, I thought that she didn't have that guts, so that's it." ”

Xuan Miao'er also whispered: "I think so too, but this toss is enough for her to hurt her vitality." ”

"Well, let's not say anything else, just send people back. Xuan Wentao told Xuan Miaoer.

The father and daughter entered the court as they spoke.

Xuan Miao'er knew that her father didn't want to call Ma her mother, so she spoke first: "Grandmother, let's go back quickly, it's not a matter if this yamen stays for a long time." ”

Xuan Wentao also said: "Yes, if there is something to say, otherwise my father will be worried." ”

Xuan Wenbao also wants to go back, because today's face is embarrassed, and everyone can't give birth to himself, a man makes others think so, he can't even lift his head.

So Xuan Wenbao and Feng also hurriedly helped Ma to go out.

Xuan Wentao and Xuan Miao'er walked behind them, because the Ma family was also an elder.

Soon got into the carriage, and Qianmo drove the carriage back to Hewan Village.

Ma Shi still endured all kinds of discomfort in her heart at this time and let herself resist, because she knew that Xuan Miaoer didn't help her, and she didn't want Xuan Miaoer to see her jokes.

At this time, Ma noticed Qianluo, and always felt that Qianluo was walking strangely, just after he finished talking to Xuan Wencheng, Qianluo left.

She didn't ask Xuan Miao'er, but asked Qianluo directly: "Qianluo, why weren't you next to Miao'er just now, what did you do?"

This is the old lady at home asking, and Qianluo can't help but answer: "Back to the old lady, I went to do something for the young lady just now." ”

"What's the matter?" asked Marsh continued.

"It's a business secret, and you can't tell outsiders. Qianluo replied freely.

Xuan Miaoer also looked at Ma's, this Ma's is very powerful, after such a big thing, he can still pay attention to these details.

Ma also knew that he couldn't ask anything, but he still forced himself to say to Xuan Wenbao: "Fifth brother, my mother said it's okay, aren't we coming back safely?"
