Chapter 146: Confession
After dinner, the family sat in the main hall, talking about the money robbery that happened in front of the Ning Mansion at noon today, as well as the brawl caused by the money robbery to injury. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Mrs. Ning asked, "How does the prefect judge this matter?" ”
Ning Xiaoping put down the teacup and said, "I paid the punishment fee for disturbing the peace, compensated the medical expenses of the injured people, and donated another 1,000 taels of silver as the obligation fee for repairing the bridge, and this matter is over." ”
Jiang Lingzhi blurted out, "If you want to pay so much money, this prefect must have taken the opportunity to fill his pocket." ”
"Shut up." Ning Xiaoping shouted. "A concubine, which turn to get you to speak."
And it is a big crime to insult the court officials behind his back. If it is light, it will be a palm, and if it is heavy, it will be a prison sentence.
Ning Lin's heart is very proud, no matter how favored she is, she has no identity or status, she doesn't even have a place to sit, she can only stand, arrogant.
Mrs. Ning already looked at this concubine as unpleasant, but now that her son scolded her, it was too late for her to be happy! Another sentence said: "You have to remember your identity, if you don't have something to say, where can you still stand here." ”
Jiang Lingzhi was indignant, but he dared to be angry but didn't dare to speak.
Ning Lin asked, "Xianggong, what about the Yunfu side?" ”
"The prefect said that this matter has nothing to do with them."
Mrs. Ning exclaimed in disbelief: "How can it have nothing to do with them?" They pulled the stuff over. We all have to pay so many fees, but there is no one on the Yunfu side, isn't this biased? ”
"Mother." Ning Xiaoping sighed and said, "We can only admit this matter." ”
"Confession?"
She also sent 2,000 taels of silver to the Duan family, wanting to make Yun Yueyuan's marriage a certainty. As a result, the thing was stopped outside the mansion by Yun Tianhua, and it didn't reach Duan's hands at all.
Yun Qianhua asked people to send the silver back, but they naturally didn't recognize it, and there was no reason to bring back the things they sent. But who would have thought that he would be robbed by a group of beggars and hooligans.
If you rob it, you will rob it, and you will be charged with disturbing public order, and all kinds of punishment fees will be thrown all over the sky. In the bloody case caused by two thousand taels of silver, Ning Mansion ruined its reputation and lost its money, but Yun Mansion was unharmed.
Now that the government has ended this dispute with a sentence of "can only admit it", how can she be willing?
Ning Xiaoping said: "The incident happened in front of our mansion, and the silver was also poured out in the hands of our people, and they also said that this was something that my mother forgot to bring back when she went to Yunfu. From beginning to end, it doesn't matter anything about his Yun Mansion. ”
"But, the things have already been sent to Yunfu!"
Ning Xiaoping shook his head: "If something doesn't enter the Yun Mansion, it can't be the Yun Mansion." Moreover, with so much silver, it is easy for others to think that we are bribing. ”
In other words, from beginning to end, today's bloody case is completely that Ning Mansion is full of food and support, and he pulls money to go to Yunfu for a walk. Then when he went back to Ningfu, he accidentally fell in front of Ningfu, which triggered a money-grabbing war.
Xia Zhifu was not brainless, so he asked him about his boss's crime. Besides, the Yun family has already married the Duanding Hou Mansion, and the Xia Governor's Mansion doesn't want to live anymore and offends the Hou Mansion. Just one prince is enough for him.
Not only was Yunfu unharmed, but Yun Shen also won the reputation of a clean official in vain.
Mrs. Ning said indignantly: "It's really unfair, it's so cheap for them." ”
Ning Xiaoping is tired and tired, and there is no way to be unwilling, this recognition is to knock out his teeth and swallow it himself. He asked, "What about the housekeeper?" ”
Ning Lin replied: "I'm still lying on the bed, I just woke up an hour ago. I sent to see him, and he was not lightly injured. ”
In other words, the housekeeper of Ningfu is probably the most unlucky day of his life today, not to mention his ineffective work, and he is disabled.
In fact, he also knew very well that in that situation at that time, it was useless for anyone to step forward to stop it. The person who snatched the red eye even beat women and children, not to mention an old man who was half cut into the ground.
The reason why he forced himself into the battle was just that he wanted to be punched twice, and it was best to faint, so that he would look more pitiful and receive less scolding from the lady and young master. Maybe you can win a lot of sympathy.
"Did he say how the chest of silver fell?" Ning Xiaoping asked.
Ning Lin said: "The housekeeper said that the people of Yunfu had already promised to pull things back. But just as he was loading the car, Yunfu's carriage suddenly drove away.
The butler hurriedly stepped forward to chase after him, but accidentally tripped over something under his feet, and grabbed something on the side in a hurry.
But he didn't know that he was grabbing the arm of the man who was carrying the box, and even the man fell with him, and the box fell to the ground, and the silver was scattered. ”
Ning Xiaoping sneered, is there such a coincidence?
It just happened that Yunfu sent something, it happened to be at the gate of Ningfu, and it happened that Yunfu's carriage was about to leave, and the housekeeper just fell, and the silver just scattered.
"It's such a cloud, I really underestimated her before."
Mrs. Ning was stunned and said, "Ping'er thinks that today's incident was done by Yun Qianhua?" --Yes, the person from Yunfu said that this is what Yun Tianhua asked them to send back. That matter must have been her idea. ”
A cloud tilter, who is only thirteen years old, was not conspicuous and leaky before, but now he gave them a slap in the head, which is really unprepared.
I used to think that the people in Yunfu were all greedy and cheap like the Duan family, and they forgot their righteousness! I didn't expect that there were people like her among the ladies of the Yun family, but I really didn't dare to underestimate it.
Mrs. Ning said: "What if I send something back, my mother and I exchanged tokens, and the marriage between her sister and you is a certainty, even if she jumps again, it will be useless." ”
"What?" Jiang Lingzhi exclaimed: "Master wants to take a concubine? ”
Although there is only one wife and one concubine in this house, there are three or four girls in the room, and the master is still young. Now that he has to accept two concubines in two months, according to this momentum, the backyard of Ning Mansion will soon catch up with the emperor's three palaces and six courtyards.
She is still newly married, she has just entered the house for less than two months, and she is going to compete for favor again, where is she willing?
Mrs. Ning cast a look of disgust and said coldly, "Do you have an opinion?" ”
Jiang Lingzhi could only shut up obediently and sulk, how could she dare to have an opinion! She's just a concubine.
Ning Xiaoping didn't want a few women to quarrel around him, it was annoying. So he changed the topic and said: "Mother just said that Lingzhi has something to say, what is it?" ”
Jiang Lingzhi was finally able to share her husband's worries, so she naturally worked hard to please her.
She smiled and said, "This matter is about the eldest lady of Yun Mansion, Yun Qianhua. It was on the night of Dingxian Villa that I saw Yun Tinghua follow the sound of the flute, walked out of the courtyard, and had a private meeting with Gao Saburo outside the courtyard. ”
In the middle of the night that night, she was going to look for Ning Xiaoping, but Ning Xiaoping was not in her room, so she had to return in disappointment. When I returned to the gate of the hospital, I happened to see Yun Tianhua and Gao Saburo having a private meeting.
Ning Xiaoping said, "What you said is true? ”
"It's true, I saw it with my own eyes."
"What did they say?"
"It's not clear, it's far away, and I can't hear it clearly." After Yun Tianhua entered the courtyard, Gao Sanlang also left, and she went back to her room.
It's just that she didn't know why, she was sleeping in her room, and when she woke up, she was already in Ningfu, and she was still undressed. Later, she directly became Ning Xiaoping's woman.
Later, I also heard someone talk about her, although I felt ashamed. But as long as she can marry her beloved, she doesn't mind any way.
Mrs. Ning smiled evilly: "No matter what they said at the time, as long as they met." ”
Ning Xiaoping glanced at her mother, and the mother and son seemed to have the same idea.
