Chapter 283: Refusal
Master Jiang stared at him and said, "Speak!" ”
He said dumbly: "The folk girl dreamed of Jiang Minghui on the 30th night of July. ”
Dreaming?
A hoarse and faint voice echoed in the hall, "...... He stood on the boat and called out to the people in sorrow, and the people saw something standing above his head. The ship grew farther and farther away, and finally it was out of sight...... The folk girl woke up and forgot a lot of ...... Later, when he had an accident, Mr. Zhou found out that he did not die of a knife killing, and the folk girl remembered the ...... she dreamed of."
Master Jiang sighed: "No wonder you don't say it. ”
No one will believe what they say.
Because he said to the Xie family's father and daughter: "When the official heard that there was a fire that night, Xie Yinfeng and Jia Xiucai also ran out in a panic because they saw Jiang Minghui's ghost. However, the theory of ghosts and gods should not be falsely spoken, and this matter should not be spread in the future! ”
Xie Mingli kowtowed and agreed.
This answer implies two meanings:
First, it explained why Guo Qingmu knew the cause of Jiang Minghui's death;
The second is to explain why the Jiangzhuzhai branch caught fire.
Master Jiang said that the theory of ghosts and gods should not be passed on lightly, but it was the caution of his officials, and he refused to take it as true, but Xie Mingli did not dare to say this, that is, he did not believe it, and he did not dare to refute it.
Ordinary people have a kind of awe for ghosts and gods, and he is no exception.
"There are gods in the head", this is not a joke.
Jiang Minghui was indeed killed by Xie Yinfeng, and his methods were cruel, who knows if he turned into a ghost? Even if Xie Mingli thought that the Guo family must have done something, he still didn't dare to refute the absurdity of Jiang Minghui's ghost appearance, for fear of angering the deceased.
Xie Yinyue felt that the atmosphere was wrong. was busy fulfilling Lord Jiang's judgment that she wanted her to apologize, so she got up and bowed to Qing Mu, "Miss Guo......"
Qing was still kneeling, and hurriedly dodged away: "No need! ”
Then he turned upwards and said, "Your Excellency." The folk girl does not accept her apology! ”
Master Jiang asked, "Why is that?" ”
Qing Du said firmly: "The evidence is just to show others." But people's hearts cannot be deceived, heaven and earth cannot be deceived, and it has nothing to do with evidence! The people's girl accepts her apology, which is deception; She apologized to the people against her will, which is to deceive the sky! ”
There was silence in the hall.
Master Jiang looked at Qing Qing silently, his eyes were very complicated.
Han Xiyi's eyes were full of worry.
Fang Chu's expression stiffened.
Xie Yinyue looked pale. She didn't hide it, and she seemed to be ashamed to expose her helplessness in front of others. It seems to be the forbearance of being wronged, and it seems to be the generosity of letting the humiliation go unspoken......
Qingdue didn't care anymore, and when he finished speaking, he retired to Master Jiang.
She walked down the hall. He greeted Yan Weiyang and the others slightly. But he didn't say hello - this is not the place to speak, nor is it the time to speak - he only said to Guo Daquan: "Big brother, let's go." ”
The brother and sister went out together, their thin waists following closely behind.
I knew the result of today's court trial, so Shen Hanqiu didn't come.
It was overcast outside, and it looked like it was going to rain.
There were many people gathered at the entrance of the county government, and it was the people who couldn't go in and wait for the results. When the peddlers saw that there were so many people, they wanted to come and do business. He did not dare to approach the gate of the county government for fear of being expelled. So only wander around the opposite side and around the street corner, peddling.
When he saw the sugar gourd seller, he felt sour water in his mouth.
She asked Slender Waist, "Did you bring any money?" ”
Slender waist shook his head, looking at her suspiciously, what do you want money for?
The dumb said to Guo Daquan: "Big brother, I want to eat sugar gourd." ”
Guo Daquan hurriedly said: "Let's go buy it." ”
The thin waist looked stunned, never expecting that the dumb would come to such a sentence.
Guo Daquan didn't care, and walked to the corner of the street with the little girl.
The thin waist was stunned for only a moment, and then hurriedly followed.
When Guo Daquan took out the money, he pulled out three strings, first handed a string to the thin waist, then held a string with his left hand, and pinched a string with his right hand to eat.
Guo Daquan saw that she was eating happily and looked at it with a smile.
Because I saw that there was a pine nut candy seller next to me, I was busy buying two more packs.
A pack of each of the dumb and the thin waist, the dumb is also held with his left hand, and the thin waist is also held, but he looks a little uncomfortable.
Xie Yinyue walked out of the county office with Fang Chu and the others, and saw such a scene:
At the corner of the street, Guo Daquan was bowing his head and talking to Qing, smiling as if asking her what she wanted; Dumb holding in her hands, eating in her mouth, and looking at both sides of her eyes, as if she was looking for something she wanted, so that her brother could help her buy it again, the two brothers and sisters were scattered and leisurely, not at all like they had just come out of the yamen to fight a lawsuit, but like they had come out to hang out.
The people present were not only Han Xiyi, Yan Weiyang, etc., but also Xia Liuxing and Cai Ming.
Everyone had different expressions, and Xie Yinyue was especially trembling.
Guo Qingdu, he doesn't care about the verdict at all!
She relentlessly told her Xie Yinyue, just to let her be punished by the law, so that her character would be questioned and discussed.
Even if she knew this, Xie Yinyue couldn't help it.
At this time, a carriage came to a stop in front of the county yamen.
It was the Shen family's carriage, and Shen Hanmei came.
Mother Song got out of the car first, swept around and didn't see the dumbness, hurriedly saluted Yan Weiyang, and asked, "May I ask Miss Yan, Miss Guo hasn't come out yet?" Then he looked a little anxious, thinking that there would be no accident, so he locked up Miss Guo again.
Yan Weiyang pointed over there and said with a smile: "That's not!" ”
Slender waist had already seen the Shen family's car coming, and was busy telling him to be dumb, and the three of them came over.
Shen Hanmei lifted the curtain and asked, "Why did my sister come?" ”
Shen Hanmei explained: "I came out first, and when I saw that it was going to rain, I turned around and took a few umbrellas with me. Thinking that you guys weren't so fast, who knew they were all coming out. Shall we go right away? ”
They made an appointment to go to the Guo family's Chengxi workshop.
Qing said dumbly: "It's nothing, the adult will come out after the sentence." Just waiting for you! ”
As he spoke, he wanted to hand her the sugar gourd in his hand, but suddenly remembered Yan Weiyang, and handed it to Yan Weiyang, "There is only one string left." You eat first, and then I'll ask my eldest brother to buy it. ”
Yan Weiyang saw that her mouth was red, and she laughed.
"I won't eat it, you can give it to Sister Shen." She said.
Seeing Guo Daquan greeting Han Xiyi and others, Han Xiyi helped him introduce Xia Liuxing and Cai Ming, and hurriedly pulled the dumb to the two: "This is Miss Guo." He said to Qing Mu: "Sister Guo, this is the eldest son of Xia Weaving, and this is the third son of Huzhou Cai Governor's Mansion." ”
Xia Cai and the others greeted the dumb and reported their names.
The dumb returned the salute and looked at the two of them slightly.
The two men looked at her intently, too.
Cai Ming smiled: "Miss Guo, it's better to be famous than to meet!" ”
looked at Xie Yinyue again, and said in a joking tone: "Of the three female young masters, two of them have been in prison, is this special?" Without waiting for anyone to reply, he replied to himself: "It should be counted!" Extraordinary, that's what it means. ”
After speaking, he smiled at Yan Weiyang, which was very meaningful.
Yan Weiyang glared at him quietly.
Xie Yinyue lowered her eyes, heard Cai Ming's words, raised her eyes and smiled bitterly: "Cai Sanye's words made the little woman embarrassed. Miss Guo's imprisonment shows that she is both wise and brave, and deserves the words 'extraordinary', while the little woman is blind and blind, dumb and incompetent, so how dare she say 'extraordinary' when she has such a disaster. ”
Before Cai Ming could speak, he said dumbly: "I will never use wisdom on this." ”
