Chapter 297: Lawsuit (1)
Chang Yuyun stood in the study, carefully looking at the file in his hand.
It was newly submitted today, and the city Yongji medicine store reported to the official, saying that someone had come to the shop to make trouble, and in the dispute between the two sides, the other party killed a primary school apprentice in the medicine store, and the seven-year-old child was killed on the spot, and the murderer was sent to the yamen and put in prison.
Chang Yuyun was not in the city at that time, Li Shushu and the main book had already been roughly questioned, and the murderer did not admit to killing someone.
Master Qiu arched his hand and said: "This murderer Jiang Qian opened a medicine shop in Haizhou, according to his statement, there was a problem with the medicinal materials he took from Yongji before, and he came to ask for an explanation, but Yongji bullied people and beat people first, and the junior apprentice was also Yongji's guy who fell to the ground and smashed his head before he died, and it has nothing to do with Jiang Qian."
Master Bi nodded and said: "The public says that the public is reasonable, and the mother says that the mother is reasonable, after all, it is the first murder case after the arrival of the adult, we think, it is not wrong to be cautious, it is better to investigate more." What do adults think? ”
Chang Yuyun agreed, lowered his head and glanced at the case file again.
Jiang Qian, a native of Qianzhou who makes a living in Haizhou.
Qianzhou?
Chang Yuyun raised his eyebrows, got up and paced a few steps behind his back, and said, "Two gentlemen, wait a while, I'll come when I go."
Hurriedly went to the backyard, and saw that the main house was lit with warm lights, and there were many people inside, Chang Yuyun quickened his pace.
If he is not mistaken, Chu Weilin's mother Jiang is also from Qianzhou, although the surname Jiang is not a small surname, but Master Bi is right, it is not wrong to be cautious.
Chu Weilin was talking to Huanyi when she saw Chang Yuyun coming back. Smiled and asked him, "The matter is settled?" I've also let Shui Fu warm up for dinner, and since I'm back, let's freshen up and start eating. ”
"There's no hurry." Chang Yuyun sat down on the side, the words came to his mouth, went around in a circle, and swallowed, but said, "I'm afraid it will take a while in front of me, don't wait for me." Eat early. ”
Specifically came back to her and said this?
Chu Weilin watched Chang Yuyun leave the room in a daze. muttered: "This kind of thing, just let the individual come back and say it, and come by yourself."
When Huan Yi heard it, she covered her lips and smiled: "Grandma." Ye specially returned. It's because I have you in my heart. ”
Chu Weilin's face turned red. He turned his head, but he couldn't help but hook the corners of his lips.
Chang Yuyun walked out of the main house and went straight to find Li De'an's house. Avoiding people, he asked in a suppressed voice: "Mom, Linlin's mother is from Qianzhou, right?"
Li De'an's family was stunned, and they couldn't understand why he asked about this in a good way.
Jiang's maiden home is in Qianzhou, a month's journey from the capital, Chu Weilin has never been there, and their impression is probably only that someone from the Jiang family came to incense when Jiang passed away, but Chu Weilin was not in good spirits at that time, and he had no memory of his mother's uncle's family.
Chu Weilin has a deep affection for the Jiang family, but she is a stranger to the Jiang family, but Chu Lunyu has been exchanging letters with the Yue family all these years.
Chu Weilin wouldn't suddenly ask about the Jiang family, so why did Chang Yuyun ask here?
Li De'an's family was suspicious, but he still nodded and said, "Yes, my wife's mother's house has been from Qianzhou for generations."
"Is there an elder, about forty years old, named Jiang Qian, modest and humble." Chang Yuyun chased after him and asked.
Li De'an's family is the Jiang family's dowry, and she knows about the Jiang family's affairs, and when she heard this name, she was surprised: "This is my uncle, that is, my wife's eldest brother, and my grandmother saw that uncle when she was a child."
Chang Yuyun secretly breathed a sigh of relief, so much that he vaguely felt that something was wrong in his heart, and he didn't want to neglect the past, if that was really the eldest uncle, wouldn't it be a big flood that washed the Dragon King Temple?
Chang Yuyun and Li De'an's family explained, and said: "That's the case, there is a person in prison today, named Jiang Qian, a native of Qianzhou, I don't know if it's an in-law, so I'm here to ask you."
Li De'an's eyebrows furrowed: "Locked up in prison? What happened? ”
Chang Yuyun said: "There was a conflict with a medicine store, and there was a murder case, and I was accused." I wanted to ask Linlin, I'm afraid that if it's a relative, Linlin has to be anxious, why don't my mother take a look with me, if it's the same name and surname, don't mention it to Linlin, if it's really the eldest uncle......"
A human life lawsuit?
Li De'an's family exclaimed, if it is really the eldest uncle, although his grandmother is not close to the eldest uncle, I am afraid that I will not be able to sit still, Amitabha, it is better not to mention it to my grandmother first, so as not to move the fetus.
"The slave and maid will go over to take a look with the master now, but the slave and maid haven't seen the eldest uncle for many years, and I don't know if I recognize it." Li De'an's family is busy.
Chang Yuyun entered the study, left Li De'an's family to wait outside, and talked to the two masters first.
Master Qiu's eyelids jumped, and he exchanged glances with Master Bi, and he was a little apprehensive in his heart, if his in-laws were involved in the case, for Chang Yuyun, this case would not be easy to try.
In particular, it is still a relative of the lady, and the official is most afraid that his wife, aunt and other relatives will be mixed up, and the wind will blow on the pillow, making him in a dilemma.
In the past, it seemed that this lady was polite, but if it really involved her eldest uncle, wouldn't it......
Master Qiu has no bottom in his heart.
The group went to the prison.
The foul air in the prison made Li De'an's family cover her nose, and she suddenly remembered the unkempt Fei Lan she saw at that time, what about Jiang Qian......
It's only been an afternoon, it shouldn't be that miserable, right? Li De'an's family comforted himself.
Standing in front of the cell where Jiang Qian was held, Chang Yuyun glanced at the middle-aged man who was sitting in the corner of the wall, holding his head in his hands, low and helpless.
The light in the prison was extremely poor, Jiang Qian was holding his head again, and it was difficult for Li De'an's family to see the other party's appearance clearly.
Master Qiu opened his mouth and asked, "Jiang Qian, Chu Lunyu, the sixth master of Chu Mansion in the capital, do you recognize him?"
Jiang Qian slowly raised his head and thought for a while: "It's my brother-in-law, my sister has passed away for many years, and now she doesn't move around, my case has nothing to do with them."
As soon as these words came out, his identity was confirmed, and Master Qiu shook his head helplessly.
Li De'an's family took two steps forward and tried to identify: "Uncle? It's my uncle! It's a slave. Slave maid orchid. ”
"Turnip?" Jiang Qian couldn't think of it for a while.
Li De'an's family hurriedly explained: "The slave maid used to serve the third girl, and she went to the capital with the girl. ”
The third girl refers to the Jiang family.
Jiang Qian's body was shocked, he hurriedly stood up, walked quickly to the prison door, stared at Li De'an's house, and said, "Yes, there is a Wulan next to the third sister." Aren't you supposed to be in Kyori? How did you end up here? ”
Li De'an's family said: "Mrs. gave the slave maid to Li De'an, the little servant of the Chu family, and a few years ago, she made a companion room and followed Grandma Wei Lin to Chang's house. Now this Jinzhou Zhizhou Chang is grandma's husband. ”
Jiang Qian's gaze fell on Chang Yuyun. said: "Sister Lin's husband? ”
Chang Yuyun bowed his head, bowed his hand, and called "uncle".
Jiang Qian's face turned red, and he waved his hand again and again. "A lawsuit. I didn't expect the official to be my nephew and son-in-law. Ay! ”
Chang Yuyun asked: "Uncle, the family doesn't speak two words, you can tell me about this case." I also know it. ”
Jiang Qian smiled bitterly, lowered his shoulders and said, "It's a long story, but I definitely didn't hurt anyone." ”
This sentence made Chang Yuyun feel at ease, but in the prison, it was really not the place to speak, he thought about it for a while, and asked Master Qiu to ask the jailer for the key.
Master Qiu opened the prison door, Chang Yuyun invited Jiang Qian to the study, prepared some water for him to freshen up a little, and asked Li De'an's family to invite Chu Weilin.
Li De'an's family was a little worried.
Chang Yuyun explained: "Since my uncle didn't hurt anyone, this lawsuit can always be resolved, and Linlin will know about it sooner or later, so it's better to talk to her now." ”
If Chu Weilin knew that Jiang Qian was locked up in prison, and Chang Yuyun didn't mention a word, Li De'an's family thought that grandma would have pimples afterwards, so she bowed her head and said: "Then the slave maid will tell grandma first, so that she knows in her heart." ”
After Jiang Qian simply freshened up, he changed into clean clothes, and his appearance was different from just now, although he was not confused, he was tall, his whole person was in good spirits, and his appearance was good, Chu Weilin was somewhat similar to him in silhouette.
Chang Yuyun said with a smile: "It is said that the nephew is like an uncle, but it is true." ”
Jiang Qian also smiled and said, "I haven't seen Sister Lin for many years, when her mother was gone, I went to Beijing to see her, and she was stupid." ”
"Linlin is pregnant, and when I talk about the matter, please don't be excited, lest Linlin be excited." Chang Yuyun pleaded.
Jiang Qian's thick eyebrows stretched, and he nodded again and again: "It should be so, it should be so." ”
In the backyard, Chu Weilin had just asked Shui Fu to set the table and was about to sit down for dinner when Li De'an's family came in.
Chu Weilin greeted with a smile: "Mom also sit down and use some?" ”
Li De'an's family waved his hand and said in a low voice: "The Jiang family's uncle is in the study in front, and the master has come to invite grandma." ”
"Uncle?" Chu Weilin didn't react for a while.
"It's my wife's eldest brother, your eldest uncle Jiang Qian." Li De'an's family explained, "When my grandmother was a child, I saw this uncle, and when my wife died, he also came to the capital. ”
A relative of the Jiang family?
Chu Weilin was very surprised, in her past and present lives, she had almost no contact with her relatives in the Jiang family.
"Shouldn't the eldest uncle be in Qianzhou? How did you get to the Golden State? Chu Weilin's impression is that the relatives of her maternal uncle's family are all in Qianzhou.
Li De'an's family smiled, pursed his lips, and said solemnly to Chu Weilin: "Grandma, you listen to a few words from the slave maid, don't be in a hurry." Here's the thing, my uncle came to Jinzhou to do business, and he made some mistakes, caused a case, and asked someone to twist into the yamen and lock him up. The master just read the file and felt that the name was familiar, so he came to ask the slave maid, and the slave maid went to the prison to take a look, and it was really the uncle. The uncle said that he had wronged someone, so he took him to the study, and asked about the case carefully, and thought that grandma and uncle had not seen each other for many years, so please go over and say hello. ”
Li De'an's family did not say it thoroughly, at least the four words of the life lawsuit, she did not dare to mention it rashly.
Chu Weilin understood, asked Shui Fu to put away all the food on the table, and said: "The master has no dinner in front, and there is nothing to eat in the prison, and the eldest uncle is afraid that he is also hungry, so these meals will be sent to the study and used some." ”
Chu Weilin cleaned up, asked Fang's mother to take Brother Lin'er, and went to the study together.
Entering the study, Chu Weilin saw the man standing on the edge of the table of the Eight Immortals at a glance, his appearance was very unfamiliar, but there was a sense of familiarity, which was somewhat similar to the Jiang family in his memory.
This familiarity made her think of the Jiang family at once, her eyes turned red, and she stepped forward and said, "Uncle." ”
Jiang Qian helped Chu Weilin up, looked up and down, and his eyes were a little moist: "What do you do with so many courtesies, be careful of your body." Hey, in the blink of an eye, Sister Lin is so old, she is going to be a mother. ”
Chu Weilin shook her head again and again, hugged Brother Lin, and said, "I'm already a mother, uncle, this is Brother Lin." Brother Lin, call your uncle. ”
Brother Lin'er's big eyes blinked, and he called obediently, his speech was slurred, but Jiang Qian was excited.
After admitting his relatives, Chang Yuyun helped Chu Weilin sit down at the table, and invited Jiang Qian to take a seat.
Chu Weilin remembered Jiang Qian's case and asked, "Why did my uncle come to Jinzhou?" If something happens, even if we are not in the house today, you have reported my father's or my name earlier, at least you can suffer less from prison for the time being. ”
Jiang Qian smiled bitterly and said, "I knew that Sister Lin was married, so she married in the capital, but I didn't know that my nephew and son-in-law were released to Jinzhou. As for your father's name, hey, your mother has been gone for many years, and your father has fulfilled all his responsibilities, and he has never neglected the Yue family in the slightest. ”
Chang Yuyun was surprised, could it be that when Master Qiu asked about Chu Lunyu in the prison at that time, Jiang Qian reacted like this, this was to not affect Chu Lunyu.
Chu Weilin groaned, and said, "My father often sends letters to my grandfather's house, so it should be mentioned in the letter, right?" ”
"Uncle has been away from Qianzhou for more than three years," Jiang Qian smiled with emotion, "Uncle went to Haizhou to do business, and he hasn't returned to Qianzhou for several years, so he didn't know about it." If I hadn't happened to go to Golden State today and ended up in prison, I wouldn't have known that my niece was in Golden State. ”
"Then this case ......" Chu Weilin looked at Chang Yuyun and then at Jiang Qian.
Chang Yuyun held Chu Weilin's hand under the table, signaling her not to worry, and waiting for Jiang Qian to speak slowly.
Jiang Qian raised his hand and pressed his temples, and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Uncle is in the pharmacy business in Haizhou, and he invited two doctors to sit in the hall, and he is trusted by the people of Haizhou. At the beginning of spring last year, there were some problems with the supply of some medicinal materials, and the production in the mountains of Jinzhou was good, so my uncle came to Jinzhou to find a medicine store to supply, and finally chose Yongji Medicine Store.
At the beginning, the quality of the medicinal materials given by Yongji was good, but four months later, a batch of goods was wrong and people died. ”
Chu Weilin was stunned: "Eat someone to death?" ”
"Yes," Jiang Qian was also very weak, "The patient's family came to the shop and cried a few times, and the uncle lost a lot of silver, but finally kept the shop and did not suffer a lawsuit." But the matter of medicinal materials must be solved, so I came to Jinzhou and wanted to explain it to Yongji Pharmacy. Who knew that the medicine shop, they actually beat a rake, and even started beating people, saying that their uncle had ruined their family's reputation. The uncle was invincible with both fists and four hands, so he could only be beaten, and they were red-eyed, and accidentally hit a junior apprentice in the medicine store, and his head hit the corner of the table, and he couldn't be saved at that time. They threw dirty water at me and said I had killed the apprentice, which is ridiculous! (To be continued......)
