Chapter 160: Prosperity and Trouble
When the daughter of the Lin family saw the old man slandering herself, she was speechless. The county uncle was also blindsided for a while, and he couldn't figure out whether it was rape or adultery.
The official who had been listening to the back of the hall coughed lightly in the back of the hall when he heard this, so the county magistrate asked the court to be temporarily suspended and talk about it later. Return to the back hall and bow to the Beijing official, and wait for the adult's instructions. The Beijing official ordered him to sit down, and said with a smile: "What do you think of this case? Is the old man lying, or is the woman avenging?"
The county magistrate took a breath, pondered for a long time, and said: "I think the woman is lying, she knows the truth that a thief bites and goes into the bone, and she wants to make money instead of asking the old man." ”
Jingguan shook his head and said: "How can you decide a case based on your subjective speculation? Did you decide the case like this before?" The county magistrate was so frightened when he heard this, he opened up his chair and crawled to beg the Beijing official for forgiveness. The Beijing official to Dali Siqing, which is bigger than the small seven-grade official, is not a second grade, and the Beijing official can take off his black gauze hat with a slight raise of his hand, which provokes the boss, how many heads does he have?
If it weren't for the fact that Jingguan had asked him for this time, I'm afraid that he would have been out of class if he found this stubble. The sweat on the county master's head fell to the ground, kneeling there and not daring to move, the Beijing official looked at it and said: "Forget it, forget it, remember that you were also loyal to the emperor in the past and served the country, and I will not study it deeply." Fortunately, the scene of this case has not been damaged for a day, and we will go to the scene and let the criminals identify it!"
When the county magistrate heard this, how dare he slack off? He ordered someone to escort the prisoner to the scene together. The riverbank was overgrown with weeds, and the old man and the woman had designated a place as the scene of the crime. Jingguan got out of the sedan chair, looked at it with his hands behind his back, and suddenly shouted: "Be bold and make a woman! It is clear that it is a bad idea to make false accusations against others." Are you guilty?"
When the Lin woman heard this, she shouted that she was wronged, it was the old man who committed adultery, what is the crime of me as the plaintiff?
"You're a wicked woman, you don't study well at a young age, you are lazy and hardworking, greedy for vanity, and you do things in broad daylight. Okay, this official will let you understand what is going on! All rapists will have traces of struggle and resistance at the scene, and the woman will not follow it. Everyone came to see, and there was no sign of chaos at this scene. It's just a sign that a grass nest has been overwhelmed, which shows that the woman was willing at that time. As the saying goes: rape a large area, and rape a line. What do you have to say to be bold and unbridled to this day?"
After hearing this, the woman cried out for wrongs like rain of tears, how could the Beijing official allow her to talk nonsense again, and let someone send someone to slap her mouth, and the woman who hit her face was purple and blue, and her tongue was broken and her teeth flew.
The old man was sentenced to the crime of adultery, and the old man was punished with more than a dozen boards with a cane, convicted of immorality, and fined. The woman was convicted of false accusation and imprisoned for three months and fined back. No one expected that on the third day after the woman was released, she committed suicide by throwing herself into the river.
Since then, it has not been very peaceful in the South River, but few people have visited. It was only a few years later that the old man who was herding sheep once drunk and bragging about his mouth, and when he was bent down to pick up wild vegetables that day, he sneaked over from behind, and struck the woman hard with the whip of the sheep, and the woman fainted. He took the opportunity to rape, and just as he lifted his pants, the woman woke up and spotted him.
He originally thought that the yellow flower girl would be humiliated, and she would lose face and marry in the future. refusing to tell the truth, coupled with his verbal threats, intimidation, and hard and soft tactics, will definitely get away with it. I didn't think that the woman regarded evil as hatred, showed her innocence, and didn't let go of him, a thief, relying on him to be an old fritter, knowing that he didn't admit his guilt if he died, but he couldn't bear the big punishment, so he had no choice but to talk nonsense, and it just so happened that the official who decided the case was also cooking Yuan Xiao in porridge, and he was confused. He escaped the catastrophe, he said, people also rely on wisdom for everything.
The county official who handled the case fell to his death on the way to Beijing, and the county official who took over took over looked at the case records left behind and ordered someone to arrest the criminal. The old man who was herding the sheep was now terminally ill, and when the big iron chain was clattered around his neck, he knew that he was playing with the eggs, and the retribution had arrived. At that time, he was paralyzed on the ground, unconscious, and after a few days, he was in the sky and died.
It is said that at the end of 1948, the People's Liberation Army began to transport troops to surround Beiping, when hundreds of thousands of military vehicles neighed, and the dust rolled straight to Beiping, the soldiers passed after four days and four nights, and the people along the way stood at the entrance of the village, wearing cotton jackets, holding their hands and running snot, and looked stunned at the soldiers from the bank of the Nanhe River.
There was a teenage boy with a shell gun on his back, and he led a horse like a chief's orderly to the river to drink his horse, but the horse went to the river and refused to drink, neighing and refusing to go. The boy wondered why the horse didn't go to the river? The boy looked at the river, and there was only a thin layer of ice on it, and only a little on the bank, and there was no ice in the river, and there was nothing else.
The child was always a child, thinking that there was something in the river, he drew his gun and shot into the river to pull the horse away, but he did not expect the horse to fight for water on the shore. It seems that the horse just saw something and was shot by the child before running away. The horse dared to go over to drink water, and no one dared to be sure if there was such a thing.
Dad said so much, it seems that he has been connected with the ancestors of the Lanxiang man again, isn't that Jingguan the one who did the bribery and bent the law to bury treasures? Could it be that there are other things that are inextricably linked to him?
After talking about this, my father said: "These are all things about Chen Guzi's rotten sesame seeds, handed down by the old people, how different they are from the facts at the time, only God knows, you should listen to the story." It's not early, I'll go to the breeding factory, and you'll go back when you're better. You don't have to worry about that side for now!"
I had no choice but to respond, because I really felt weak in the past two days. I could only listen to my father's arrangement, and I didn't take that kind of legendary story to heart, and after drinking some wine, I fell asleep on the bed.
At noon the next day, I was lying in bed when Wangcai's daughter-in-law came over. In his hand he was holding an aluminum basin with a lid on it. When I entered the door, I shouted: "Yong, come and taste the fish stewed for you by my sister-in-law, and see how I cook?"
"Look at you, still see your sister-in-law? I just don't know if what I'm doing is to your liking, quick, taste. After a while, it will be cold. ”
I hurriedly went to chew a piece with chopsticks and chewed it in my mouth, and said as I ate, "It's delicious, it's delicious, it's so fresh!" I nodded frequently, and couldn't help but eat a few more bites.
"Did Wangcai go out, what are you doing today?" I asked.
"Wangcai, I quarreled with people for a long time in the morning, and I was angry. This will probably talk to Xiangyi!"
I smiled and said, "Wangcai has a good temper, who did he provoke?
"Hey, this thing is also to blame Wangcai, let's say that it doesn't matter if you go out, or in the village, try to talk as little as possible, he just doesn't listen, it's not a big deal, isn't it?"
I continued to eat the fish, and I didn't take it to heart but said, "As long as it's useful, just say it, so what's there?"
"That's it, it's a two-sided look, it's useful to look at it this way, and then people think you're talking nonsense!"
I'm kind of and say, well, that's the reason. said casually: "Sister-in-law, you are really smart, your cooking skills are good and reasonable." Brother Wangcai is really a blessing!"
"Hehe, just praise me, I feel so comfortable. I forgot to clean it without pleasure in the morning. Wangcai's daughter-in-law said with a smile.
It seems that Wangcai really quarreled with others, and I was busy asking what was the matter. Wangcai's daughter-in-law said that a few days ago, Wangcai went to the field to see how the medicinal herbs of Banlan root grew, and on the way home, he met Lin Bao, who was Lin Fengshan's son. Recently, the corpse poison on his body has also made the two half-immortals look almost better, because his physique is too weak, he can only walk around the street, and he can't do physical work at all. I can't work until my body is fully recovered.
Originally, Wangcai saw Lin Bao on the street and said hello and passed, but after Wangcai greeted Lin Bao, he walked a few meters away and turned back. Wangcai said: "Brother Bao, I don't know if you like to listen to a word, but as a villager in the township, I still want to tell you, don't go out for three or four days, just stay at home?"
Wangcai said again: "I hesitated for a moment just now, and I just wanted not to tell you this. But if you don't tell me, you can't help it. You have a disaster in these two days, especially a car accident, so try to stay at home for these three or four days. ”
At that time, Lin Bao was unhappy: "You are prosperous, I know that you know some messy thaumaturgical evil ways." But don't get it from me, I walk on the wall every day on the street, I can't walk a few steps for half a day, how can there be a car accident, my family has suffered such a big disaster, you say I'm just right, come out and yo-yo, you just say this to me, you kid don't die if I don't die!"
"Brother Lin Bao, I really don't mean anything else, I told you how to see it, and you didn't understand it, but I'm worried that if you don't pay attention to something, it's too late for us to say anything at that time. So I'm going to be careful, it's better to stay at home. ".
Lin Bao was also very angry when he heard that Wangcai still insisted on his opinion, and he felt very awkward. A little annoyed, he said, "Wangcai! I will follow what you said, I will not go out." If I don't have a car accident when I go out in the past three or four days, don't say that I, Lin Bao, is blocking your door and scolding you!"
Wangcai smiled when he heard this, thinking that Lin Bao was joking, and he didn't take it to heart. I knew that I really came to find Wangcai to scold this morning. Wangcai said that at the time, who took it seriously for four days. But Lin Bao said: "Today is the fourth day, I have nothing to do, my teeth are good, my stomach is good, my food is fragrant, and my body is great! You have blocked me, and now I block your door and scold you is also revenge, and it is also a toad jumping on the surface of your feet, and it is disgusting if you don't bite people! Let your kid talk nonsense on the street all day long, and you will have to pay some price!"
When Wangcai heard this, he also became angry: "Your kid obviously has a collapsed belt wrapped around his head, and he said that he was not injured?"
