Lu Jinping saw his sister crying sadly, crying full of grievances, not to mention anything else, this alone made him believe that his sister was likely to be really wronged. He said, "What's going on?" Sister, tell me. ”

Lu Fengniang said: "I have been helping to serve dishes in the front yard that day, and many people have seen it, but I didn't go to the inner house at all. I was busy, a few mothers-in-law caught me, and searched me, not to mention that I just stole the gold bracelet in Mrs. Jin's house, I didn't even enter her inner house, how could I steal it! They have wronged me, woo woo woo ......"

"I know, don't worry, Patriarch Jin said just now, they blamed you, don't worry, it's okay."

Lu Fengniang was relieved at this time, and cried for a while, Lu Fengniang looked up at her younger brother, and saw that her younger brother was in good spirits, and he did not have the kind of gloom when he was down, and his heart was suddenly relieved, and said, "How are you doing these days?" My sister has always been concerned about you and always wants to come to see you, but she is ...... and can't leave......"

As she spoke, Lu Fengniang wiped a handful of tears, and subconsciously glanced at her husband Jin Dafu standing next to her, Jin Dafu looked quite embarrassed.

Lu Jinping immediately understood that her sister couldn't come to see her, but she was afraid that her brother-in-law would get in the way. Then he patted her on the shoulder and said, "Sister, you sit down first, and we'll talk about anything else after we're done with the matter." ”

Lu Jinping pulled Lu Fengniang to sit on the side of his wide soft couch, and then said to Mrs. Jin: "Since you have admitted that you are wrong to blame my sister, then I want to take my sister away, no problem, right?" ”

Patriarch Jin waved his hand again and again in panic: "No, no problem, of course no problem!" It's all the villain's lax discipline, so that these lawless subordinates detain the lord's sister at will, and the villain must dispose of this evil slave well! ”

Lu Jinping snorted.

Patriarch Jin shuddered for a moment, and hurriedly said, "Sir, the villain still has a little reparation gift, which is to apologize to the lord's sister." At the same time, it is also a little heartfelt to the lord who came all the way to ask about this matter. ”

After that, he turned around, his housekeeper had already been instructed, and came over with a heavy box of copper coins, the patriarch took it, sent it to Lu Jinping, and said in a panic: "This is, three thousand Wen, it is a gift for the villain to make amends, please accept it with a smile." ”

Lu Jinping said to his sister Lu Fengniang beside him: "They have locked you up for a few days, compensation is due, you can accept the money." ”

Lu Fengniang hurriedly shook her head and said, "Brother, you still accept it, you have a lot of places to use money, my sister couldn't help you before, and I have been uneasy in my heart......"

Lu Jinping waved his hand and said: "Sister, you may not know, I have become an official in the Yamen of Tongzhou, and I am a doctor of medicine, although the official is not big, but the money is still enough for me to spend, so you keep this money as your private money." He turned his head to Jin Dafu next to him and said, "This money is compensated by your patriarch to my sister, and you are not allowed to touch a penny!" ”

"Don't dare, don't dare!" Jin Dafu smiled in horror.

Lu Fengniang heard her brother say this, so she took the money.

Patriarch Jin bowed down again and said, "Sir, there is one more thing I want to ask for the sir's permission." ”

Seeing that the other party was so humble, and made amends in person, and immediately made compensation for the loss, the anger in Lu Jinping's heart disappeared, and said, "Just say something." ”

"The villain wants to ask the lord to give the villain a chance to make amends. -- The villain then ordered the people to prepare a banquet, a glass of wine, to make amends to the lord, and to entertain the lord of justice and the lords. Please don't refuse. ”

Lu Jinping was silent, Xie Judicial actually didn't want to make the whole matter stiff, after all, the sedan chair was carried by everyone, and it was better to settle the grievances, and it was better to save face for Lord Lu, so it was better to ease the atmosphere, so Luo Judicial said to Lu Jinping with a smile: "Since Patriarch Jin is sincere, does the lord reward him with a face and eat his banquet?" ”

Patriarch Jin nodded gratefully, looking at Lu Jinping pitifully.

Lu Jinping smiled and said to Xie Justice: "Okay! ”

Patriarch Jin couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately ordered to prepare a banquet.

Lu Jinping said to Patriarch Jin: "It will take a little time to prepare the banquet, take advantage of this time, I will help you investigate this case." Let's see if we can help you catch the real thief, get the gold bracelet back, and completely clear my sister's grievances. ”

"This, don't dare to bother the lord. If you lose a bracelet, you will lose it, and it is really a great sin to alarm the lord from all over the same state to my remote Jinshan Village for this little thing......"

Lu Jinping frowned and said, "I just see that there is still some time for your banquet to be ready, so by the way, I want to see if I can help you find the bracelet." Since it doesn't matter if you have a lot of money, then I won't say more. ”

Patriarch Jin was taken aback, and from these words, he heard that Lu Jinping was a little unhappy in his words, wouldn't it be in vain to make amends? Therefore, Patriarch Jin hurriedly confessed and said: "The villain obeys the will of the lord, if the lord can find this bracelet, the villain is grateful." ”

Lu Jinping said: "Okay, then take me to the place where I lost the bracelet." By the way, Justice Xie, it stands to reason that you should be responsible for solving the theft case on your site, because it involves my sister's grievances, and only when the real culprit is caught, this grievance can finally be cleared, so I will be cheeky and cook on behalf of the cook to see if I can solve this case. Don't you mind? ”

Judicial Xie hurriedly arched his hand and said: "Where, where, the lord said so, he would be ashamed of his humble position." Thank you for your help in solving the case. ”

At that moment, Patriarch Jin and his wife took Lu Jinping and them to their master bedroom in the inner house.

When she arrived here, Mrs. Jin said: "That day was the old lady's birthday, and I invited a lot of relatives and friends. I wanted to dress up to meet the guests, and I was wearing the gold bracelet, but I thought it was a little smaller, so I changed to a bigger one, took it off and put it in the jewelry box. After the change, I went out to meet the guests. After about half an hour, I always felt that I was wearing this bracelet that was too big, too bulky, and a little tacky, and it was still better than the original smaller style. So I wanted to change the bracelet to the smaller one. But when I returned to the inner house, I opened the jewelry box containing the gold bracelet and found that the gold bracelet was missing. I asked the maids who served me, but they couldn't find them everywhere, and I guessed that someone must have stolen them, so I told the master. Grandpa instructed the housekeeper to investigate the matter and make sure that the person who stole the gold bracelet was caught. However, they didn't expect them to arrest the lord's sister by mistake, and we didn't know until today that these bastards are really lawless......"

"I won't talk about the rest!" Lu Jinping interrupted her, "Tell me, who people entered your house in that half an hour?" ”

Mrs. Jin said: "There were a lot of people coming and going that day. Because it was the old lady's 60th birthday, there were too many guests, and the old man said that the inner house could not let the guests come in casually, and they were only entertained in the front yard, no matter who it was. So none of the guests came to the house. ”

"Who are the people who can enter the inner house?"

"The people who can enter the inner house are all people who live in the inner house, including the two of us, as well as the master's concubines, sons, daughters-in-law and daughters, and the maids and daughters in their houses, adding up to maybe twenty or thirty."

"Have the people and guests in the front yard, especially the villagers who came to help, entered your inner house?"

"Absolutely not!" Mrs. Jin Jin was sure, "At that time, I was worried that there would be too many people, so the old man specially added a gatehouse to the courtyard gate of the inner house." There are two people in total who guard the door, and those who come out of the inner house cannot be put in the inner house. ”

"So, it's impossible for my sister to enter your house? It's impossible to steal the gold bracelet in the jewelry box in your bedroom? ”

"Yes......" Mrs. Jin was very embarrassed, and looked at Patriarch Jin with a smile.

Patriarch Jin smiled and said, "The lord taught me a lesson. This matter is the villain's negligence, the villain didn't expect that they would frame the lord's sister, the villain must rectify these lawless guys......"

"Needless to say. Let's talk about the case. Take me to the house where you lost your gold bracelet. ”

Mrs. Jin hurriedly took Lu Jinping and them to her bedroom. He took out a jewelry box and put it on the table, and said, "The gold bracelet is placed in this box, and it is specially used to hold the gold bracelet." As a result, I opened it and looked at it and disappeared, not knowing which thief stole it. ”
