Chapter 21: The Rogue Woman

Liao's temper was already anxious, and he was even more angry when he was pitted like this, "If you dare to mess around, I will send you to the government!" ”

He's face changed sharply, and he sneered, "Did you take the bracelet?" ”

Liao's language stopper.

"Since you accepted it, why don't you admit it?"

"That's your birthday gift for my daughter."

He chuckled, and the phoenix eyes provoked, "That bracelet is priceless, I met you in Pingshui, why do I give a big gift on your daughter's birthday, but let people hear whether this is reasonable or not." Obviously, it was the gift you promised to marry your daughter to my son, but you accepted it at the time, but today you deny it. Okay, since you said no, what evidence do you have? ”

Liao was almost so angry that she wanted people to drive her away, but when she really reported to the government, she couldn't tell if she had a mouth. It's just because there is a law in this central government called "There is a suspicion of sin". There is a sentence in the "Book of Shang": "The crime is only light, and the merit is serious".

-- If you can't prove your innocence, you're a criminal. It's just that the government should deal with it lightly in terms of punishment. To put it bluntly, as long as you are suspected of guilt and cannot prove yourself, you have to be punished.

Hanazumi is her daughter, and what she says has no effect at all. The Liao family understood the He family's conspiracy, and it was really unbelievable, "Even if you get your wish, what benefits can you get?" Even if my daughter really marries your son, what can you get, our Hua family, and even my daughter, will hate you, why do you do this? ”

He didn't answer, just looked at her directly, "Do you admit it or not?" Mrs. Hua, the Hua family and the Liao family are all faceless families, once this matter is big, do you think you are really worthy of your daughter? My son is not bad, his family background is good, he really got married, you don't lose. ”

"What if you go to the government, the government will give the Hua family a little thin noodles."

"Then just go and make trouble."

Liao Shi stared at her closely, but still didn't let go, and was silent for a moment before asking, "Do you have any difficulties, you also know that my husband's family is full of people with heads and faces, if you say it, I will definitely be able to help you." ”

He Shi's eyes widened slightly, and the light that flashed in an instant sank in an instant, and he said coldly, "No, if you can't be the master, then I'll wait for Master Hua to come back and talk to him about this." ”

After that, the He family no longer listened to her, and seemed to be afraid of Liao's entanglement, so he left in a hurry.

The next person was also taken aback by this woman, and then looked at the lady's face, and understood that the lady had been trapped. The butler stepped forward and said, "Madam, don't pay attention to this crazy woman, just with a bracelet, how can the government judge it to be established, and the young lady will not award it to such a person." ”

Liao shook his head slightly, "This matter really went to the government, I know that the people of the Hua family are fine, but if I don't know, I'm afraid it will be criticized." I think she is also out of the way, but I'm afraid that things will get bigger. This is detrimental to the reputation of the Hua family, as well as the reputation of the ring, how can I be worthy of the master. ”

She thought for a moment, settled down, and instructed her subordinates to take care of Hualing and prepare to go to the Shen family next door. She didn't know the details of the He family, so she went to ask Mrs. Shen if she knew. Knowing yourself and knowing your opponent, maybe you can find her death hole, so that she will no longer be entangled, and this matter will stop, which is good for everyone.

Yesterday, Father Shen and Mrs. Shen said that every day after his son was released from the court, he would send him to Master Kong's house to learn calligraphy and return late, so Mrs. Shen went to the house to ask the old lady, and the old lady asked her daughter-in-law to postpone the time of dinner, which would get dark, Mrs. Shen had not gone to the kitchen to tell the cook, and she didn't know what to do for a while, and when she heard that Liao was coming, she immediately went out to meet her.

It's just that Liao's face is not good, and she looks even more worried in the dark sky, Mrs. Shen is gentle and careful, and asks while welcoming her in, "What's wrong with Mrs. Hua?" ”

Liao asked directly, "Is there a place for Mrs. Shen to talk about her heart?" ”

Mrs. Shen nodded, then pulled her into the room and let her servants wait outside. Before the cup of tea was filled, seeing that she was still silent, Mrs. Shen knew that what Liao was going to say was not simple.

Liao took a sip of tea, and then said, "I went to Peach Blossom Village to enjoy the flowers that day, and I never thanked you." ”

Mrs. Shen smiled lightly, "What is there to thank for this." ”

Liao continued, "Actually, the second day is my daughter's birthday, so I went to see the peach blossoms, half of which I wanted her to be happy. ”

"Oh? Yes, I didn't know that I didn't give her a good birthday, it was my negligence. ”

Mrs. Shen was polite...... Speaking of which, if it weren't for Suzu's birthday, this kind of thing wouldn't have happened. ”

It's finally time to talk about the theme, and Mrs. Shen is also a little more solemn, "What happened?" ”

Only then did Liao Shi say, "When I was staying in Zhuangzi, didn't I meet a few other ladies who were playing in Zhuangzi? There is a young woman surnamed He, do you remember Mrs. Shen? ”

"Yes."

"When I talked to her about Suzu's birthday, she took a bracelet and gave it to Suzu, but I didn't look at it carefully, thinking that it shouldn't be too valuable, so I let Suzu accept it. Unexpectedly, she suddenly came to visit today and said that the bracelet that Ling Ling accepted was her dowry gift to our Hua family. ”

Mrs. Shen was taken aback, "There is such a thing!" She said this nonsense, she should have been sent to the government just now. ”

Liao couldn't help but snort coldly, "I thought about it, but there were only three of us in the house at the time, and she insisted that I accepted her dowry, and now I have to wait for my husband to come back and tell him about marriage." I really can't pull my face to make trouble with her like this, so I came to ask Mrs. Shen if I know her details, I really want to think of a countermeasure. ”

Mrs. Shen's heart was also pounding, you must know that in her heart, Xiaohualing was the best candidate for her future daughter-in-law, and now she actually made a trip to bite the gold, how could she sit idly by. What's more, if she hadn't invited the mother and daughter of the Hua family to see the peach blossoms, she wouldn't have made such a fuss, and she was somewhat ashamed, "I don't know what the origin of the He family is, but don't worry, I'll let people go to the peach blossom village to find someone to investigate." Nine out of ten people who go there know the owner of the farm, and they will soon know. ”

With her words, the Liao family calmed down a little, and at the end she said again, "I'm really sorry that this matter has troubled Mrs. Shen." ”

Mrs. Shen is already standing on the united front with her, where would she care about this, "Lingling is so likable, if someone really cheats me like this, I don't feel at ease." ”

After she said that, she let the housekeeper come in, and asked him to find someone who was good at horseback riding and go to Peach Blossom Village immediately. turned around and comforted Liao a few words, and then sent her out.

As soon as Liao's front foot left, Shen Laibao came back, got out of the carriage and saw Liao's entering the door, Mrs. Shen was looking to the side at the door, and when she got out of the car, she said, "Mother." ”

Mrs. Shen showed her face, and saw that his forehead was moist, and his clothes were also stained with sweat, which was not at all like he came back from his master's calligraphy. I was about to ask, but after thinking about it, I must have secretly run to play. She was too busy to ask, she couldn't ask, if she let his father know, she would have to beat him.

Originally, it was tiring enough to study in the academy for a day, and I had to go to my master's house to learn calligraphy.

She pulled her son into the door and said softly, "Mother, I'm going to tell the kitchen to cook, it's going to be fine soon, let's go wash my face first." ”

Shen Laibao asked, "Aunt Hua came here just now, why does she seem to have something on her mind?" ”

Mrs. Shen was glad that he could read words and feelings, and when she thought of what she wanted to say, she was a little displeased, so she found someone to talk to him, and finally said, "Noble, you can't let Lingling be snatched away." ”

Shen Laibao also likes the little girl with Hua Ling's temper, not to mention that the other party uses this kind of indiscriminate means, which is simply disgraceful, how can Xiaohua marry that kind of person. He nodded, "No." ”

Mrs. Shen was quite pleased, and Shen Laibao was curious, "But just based on her nonsense, will the government believe it?" ”

"My son is still young and does not understand the law, you must know that if your Aunt Hua cannot produce evidence to prove that the bracelet is not a dowry, this statement is valid. Of course, the government will give the Hua family a face, and it will not believe it. But judging from your Aunt Hua's description, that crazy woman is determined to make trouble, and if she really makes trouble, where to put the face of the Hua family, Ling Ling will also be ridiculed. ”

"Damn!" It's the first time Shen Laibao has heard such a scoundrel thing, "This is what I used to say, 'there is always a suspicion'." ”

Before? Mrs. Shen looked at her son, who was only ten years old, where did he come from. But after a while, he was pleasantly surprised by the four words his son said, and nodded vigorously, "Yes, yes." ”

Shen Laibao sighed secretly, if there is a doubt, there is a doubt. But the latter is a principle of modern law, and the former is slowly being abandoned. But now it seems that the central government is still following the former, which is difficult to do.

Wait, bracelets......

Shen Laibao immediately ran back to his room and brought the money bag on the table, opened it and took a look, and the last time the flower bell was stuffed into his money bag, it was indeed a red bracelet. He took the bracelet and looked at it, thinking that it must have been the woman's gift. He lowered his eyebrows and thought for a moment, then turned around and asked, "Ah Wu, when Xiaohua stuffed a bracelet into my money bag last time, who were around?" ”

Ah Wu bent over and replied, "There are a lot, about seven or eight people." ”

"Find them all." Shen Laibao put the bracelet away, afraid of an accident, and hung it directly on his body. Not only did he have to find all the people, but he also had to give a confession to them.

- What, don't you see the flower bell plug bracelet? Don't get in the way, I said I saw it. That's it, it's this red bracelet.

Dealing with scoundrels and emphasizing benevolence, righteousness and morality, then he is a real fool.
