Chapter 39: Healing Wounds Late at Night

The courtyard of Zhang's house is full of torches, illuminating the mourning hall. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Zhou Ning is very tired these days, but he doesn't feel the slightest sleep.

Zhou Ning sat in the tent and quietly looked at the record of this case, trying to find some clues from it.

Aunt Wang and Aunt Li came to accompany Zhang Liu, and they persuaded her to go to bed quickly, this is the second night, and if she doesn't sleep anymore, it will be wasted. Zhang Liu looked at the torches outside the window, thinking of Zhang Caixia lying in the spirit shed, and had mixed feelings for a while.

She walked out of the door, went to the altar and filled the basin with some burning paper, and lit a pillar of incense and inserted it. She gently flicked the burning paper with a short wooden stick, and then muttered to Zhang Caixia.

"Xia, the county master is here, and now he is guarding in our yard, you have a dream for your sister-in-law in the sky, tell your sister-in-law who killed you, and the time has come to avenge ......"

Zhou Ning opened a gap in the tent and looked out, the cold wind swished and blew Zhang Liu's clothes bulging, the firelight reflected her face, and two lines of sad tears rolled down.

Zhou Ning gently put down the tent, the people's grievances cannot be accumulated, and this revenge must be avenged. Zhou Ning had just sat down when he suddenly heard Zhang Liu shouting: "Erzhuzi, why are you going?" ”

Who is she talking to in the middle of the night? Who goes out at this time? Zhou Ning opened the tent again, and saw Zhang Liu walking next door.

Liu Erzhu had just entered the house for less than half an hour, not to mention that he himself wanted to know the progress of the case, even the onlookers made him unable to rest.

Half of the village was standing in the courtyard of his house, and he didn't know what he could be watching, but no one wanted to leave anyway, and they were all on guard.

Liu Dazhu's legs were so swollen that his trouser legs were cut open, but he still insisted on standing in the yard for a long time. It wasn't until the onlookers dispersed that Liu Erzhu went back to the house to get ready for bed.

In the past two days, the people of the entire Shixi Village have been extremely tired, and they haven't slept much last night, and they didn't stop until after a little more tonight.

Liu Erzhu first helped Liu Dazhu change the medicine on his leg before falling asleep. As soon as he fell asleep, he was moaned by Liu Dazhu. The groans woke me up. Liu Dazhu's leg hurt so much that he couldn't bear it, and he couldn't help but muffle his voice through clenched teeth.

Seeing the beads of sweat on the eldest brother's head rolling down like beans, Liu Erzhu naturally panicked. He put on his clothes and ran out, and he had to find some medicine for his brother's pain.

The herbs left by Lang Zhong are not useful, he has to ask Lang Zhong for some other medicine. As soon as he went out, he was seen by Zhang Liu, who was just about to go back to the house.

Liu Erzhu answered Zhang Liu's question while tying the buttons on his clothes: "My brother's leg pain can't stand it, I'll go to Wu Ergazi to ask for medicine, it's not a problem to stand up." ”

"The snake bite is the most sinful, first use a hand towel dipped in cold water to compress it, it can relieve the pain." Zhang Liu made an idea for him through the courtyard wall.

"Yes, I'm in a daze, I'll put a compress on him first, it's swollen like a rafter." Liu Erzhu said and hurriedly ran back to the house.

Zhang Liu sighed, lowered his head and walked to his house. If it weren't for such a big incident at home, Liu Dazhu was bitten by a snake, how could she have gone over to take a look.

Now don't say that it is inconvenient to detect flaws in the middle of the night, even during the day, I am afraid that others will think she will be discouraged. A good family, less than three years after she entered the door, all her in-laws died.

Later, her husband went out to do business and never returned, and there was no news of the mud cow in the sea. Now that my sister-in-law has been killed for no reason, the villagers don't know how to slander her for being a big nemesis.

She had the heart to visit Dazhu, but she couldn't really go over, so she had to go back to the house first, maybe Aunt Yang Wang and Aunt Li could go over and have a look.

As soon as she walked to the door, Lu Qing walked out of the tent, and she hurriedly took a step back and bowed: "My lord." ”

"Hmm." Lu Qing responded generously, and then asked, "Who was bitten by the snake?" ”

Zhang Liu glanced at the Liu family and said, "Dazhu, I drank too much last night and ran up the mountain, and I was accidentally bitten by a snake." ”

"Take me there." Lu Qingcai didn't bother to pay attention to the big pillars and two pillars, if Zhou Ning hadn't asked him to treat his injuries, he would definitely not have heard.

He came out to treat his wounds, and he also brought two officials to carry a medicine box for him. Zhang Liu answered 'yes', and hurriedly led the way in front.

Just a few steps forward, Zhou Ning lifted the tent and walked out, he coughed lightly, and everyone hurriedly stopped. Zhou Ning said lightly: "I'll go over and take a look." ”

Zhou Ning didn't plan to come out, but when he heard Zhang Liu say that the big pillar ran to the mountain last night, he couldn't help frowning.

Running up the mountain in the middle of the night, it doesn't look like drinking too much, it's like drinking crazy. Although Zhou Ning was not sure that there must be something wrong here, as long as there was the slightest suspicion, he would not let it go easily.

Last night's time period was too sensitive, and anyone who left Shixi Village last night for no reason must investigate it clearly.

The official lit a lantern, went around the courtyard wall and symbolically slapped the door twice, and pushed the door directly without waiting for the people inside to react.

Liu Erzhu was really shocked when he opened the door to see so many people. In the front was the official with a lantern, and in the back was the county magistrate in an official uniform, and then he didn't even dare to look behind him and fell to his knees.

"The grass people kowtow to the old man." Liu Erzhu doesn't know any etiquette, anyway, kowtowing is the biggest ceremony, and no one stops and keeps kowtowing.

"No courtesy." Zhou Ning said, 'No courtesy', Liu Erzhu heard it clearly, but he didn't understand. He was slightly stunned for a moment, and continued to kowtow, no matter what he meant, there would be nothing wrong with kowtowing anyway.

"Don't knock." Zhou Ning doesn't like others to kowtow to him very much, and when others knock blood, he won't get anything.

This time Liu Erzhu understood, he stood up, his lips trembled, why did the county master come to his house? He was nervous and nervous, not knowing what to do.

Lu Qing pointed to the door: "Don't let us in?" We're here to show your brother's injuries. ”

Lu Qing saw a lot of stupid people like Liu Erzhu, and when he looked at the official, he didn't know what to do, and the whole person became like an idiot.

Cowardice is the natural psychology of people, which is a very normal thing, and most people living at the bottom have such a psychological disorder.

The officials are very dignified when they travel, and they usually do not have contact with the people, and they do not smile when they meet occasionally. It is difficult for the people not to be cowardly.

If the people are not cowardly officials, they need to be officials and not neglect the people. Zhou Ning did not want the good people to be cowardly, he also tried his best to be close to the people, and since he took office, he has issued many pro-people orders.

The officials felt that their prestige before the people had diminished considerably, and they had to be kind to the good people who came to complain, and provided them with a place to rest and a simple meal of tea.
