Chapter 238: The Lying Couple
Fan Dagui smiled and said, "It's my nephew and niece-in-law, who just came over this morning and said they came to see me."
Song Ruilong said: "Oh, since they are your relatives and not outsiders, how about Fan Baochang invite them to the upper room to talk?"
Fan Dagui smiled bitterly: "It's just that my nephew and niece and daughter-in-law are more timid, and they will be afraid when they see the tolerance."
Su Xianrong smiled and said, "Are we tigers?" And they don't eat people, what are they afraid of? Baochang Fan, you better let them come out and meet us. ”
Fan Dagui lowered his head, frowning and thinking, when suddenly he raised his head and said, "Okay then!"
Fan Dagui shouted at the room: "Hongxia, Heitu, if you two don't sleep, come out for a while, the two messengers want to see you."
A woman in the room said, "Uncle, wait a minute, we'll get dressed and go out."
Song Ruilong and Su Xianrong waited for a while, only to see a man and a woman walk into the living room.
The woman wore a pair of gold earrings on her ears and a silver hairpin on her head, her appearance was dignified and beautiful, and she spoke generously, saying: "Liu Hongxia, a folk woman, has seen two poor people."
Liu Hongxia just gave Song Ruilong and Su Xianrong a greeting gift, and did not kneel, because Song Ruilong did not state his identity as the county magistrate, so Liu Hongxia and Heitu naturally did not need to kneel.
The black soil looked gentle, but his face was very dark, as if he had wiped a layer of soot from a pot.
Song Ruilong stared at Liu Hongxia's ears and said, "What kind of place is Miss Hongxia from?"
Liu Hongxia was a little panicked and said: "If you send back to the people, the woman is from Liujiatun, and the husband's family is also from Liujiatun, which is called Liuheitu." The father of the woman and the father of the black soil are world friends, we have set a baby since childhood, and we only got married three days ago, and today I came to my uncle's house to go to a relative, which can be regarded as good news! ”
Song Ruilong felt that Hei Tu and Hongxia's faces were not very natural, and they seemed to be trying their best to hide something.
Song Ruilong looked at Liu Hongxia's gold earrings and said, "What does Miss Hongxia's father do?"
Fan Dagui interjected: "Hey! What could her father do? It's nothing more than planting some land and making a living by selling bamboo. ”
Song Ruilong smiled and said, "You can also make a lot of money selling bamboo, right?"
Fan Dagui nodded and said, "Well, yes!" My nephew's family has planted more than a dozen acres of bamboo, and this year's harvest is much better than in previous years. ”
Song Ruilong looked at Liu Hongxia and said, "Liu Hongxia, did you just come from Liujiatun?"
Liu Hongxia lowered her head and said, "Exactly."
Song Ruilong continued to ask, "Your bamboo should be able to sell for a good price, right?"
Liu Hongxia said softly: "The bamboo at home is growing very well, and this year is a good harvest."
Song Ruilong said with a straight face: "Liu Hongxia, I don't want to joke with you, I don't want to hear you lie, and I don't want to send someone to Liujiatun to see how your bamboo is, you tell Bencha honestly, why are you lying?" You are not from Liujiatun at all. ”
Liu Hongxia quibbled: "My lord, what the woman said is the truth, I hope your lord will investigate."
Song Ruilong said: "You don't need to check it. Because Bencha knew that half a month ago, Bencha had tried a case, where the people complained that the sky-shaking ants in the bamboo forest were too rampant, and almost all their bamboos were eaten. ”
Liu Hongxia knelt in front of Song Ruilong and said, "Poor people, the people said that the growth is very good, but they didn't say that they could sell it for a good price, and the people misunderstood the meaning of the people's women."
Song Ruilong thought in his heart, what a skillful and eloquent mouth!
Song Ruilong looked at Liu Hongxia's gold earrings and said, "Did your father buy your gold earrings for you too?"
Liu Hongxia glanced at Song Ruilong, shook her head, and then put her eyes on Liu Heitu's body, and said, "It's the marriage gift he bought for the people's women."
Song Ruilong said slowly: "It seems that you are married to a rich family." Can Bencha come to the room where you live? ”
Liu Hongxia refused: "Send people, the women's house is very messy, and they haven't had time to clean it up, so don't send people to go."
Song Ruilong said with a smile: "The place where Ben Gang has been, the two of you may not have imagined that this morning, a monk died in a dry well, his back was slashed with a kitchen knife, and his neck was cut off. After he was thrown into a dry well, he was hit four or five times by the murderer with a big stone on his body, and he was not afraid of that kind of bloody scene, is your house more ugly than there? ”
Liu Hongxia said helplessly: "If you want to see it, how dare the women disobey?"
Song Ruilong and Su Xianrong, under the leadership of Liu Hongxia, walked to the side room, and after Liu Hongxia lit the candle, Song Ruilong walked in.
Song Ruilong found a red iron box in Liu Hongxia's room, and the iron box was locked with copper locks.
Song Ruilong put the iron box on the table and said to Liu Hongxia: "Open it!"
Liu Hongxia said very reluctantly: "Poor people, there is only some gold and silver in the iron box, and there is nothing else. Don't look at it. ”
The more Liu Hongxia didn't let Song Ruilong see it, the more Song Ruilong wanted to see it, and said, "Is this box filled with dirty silver?" Bencha is just to see, if there is nothing suspicious, Bencha will not embarrass you. ”
Liu Hongxia was helpless, and after opening the box, Su Xianrong saw that there was half a box of jewels shining with gold inside.
Su Xianrong said in surprise: "Your family is just ordinary people farming, how can there be so many jewels?" Furthermore, do you need to carry so much jewelry with you when you visit your relatives? If you don't tell us where these jewels come from, we're going to take you back to the county office. ”
Liu Hongxia and Liu Heitu immediately knelt down for Song Ruilong and Su Xianrong.
Liu Hongxia said: "Two poor people, please let us go!" These jewels are all private money saved by the women from childhood to adulthood, and in order to elope with Liu Quanfu last night, the women took out all the private money. Please raise your noble hand and let us go. If we go back, the father of the folk woman will marry the folk woman to that Nangong Xiang. In that case, the women would only die. ”
Song Ruilong was a little surprised: "It turns out that you are Dong Yunheng's daughter, you are Dong Xiuhong, right?"
Dong Xiuhong lowered her head and said: "The woman is Dong Xiuhong, just because the woman doesn't want to be Dong Xiuhong anymore, so she changed her surname and name."
Song Ruilong said: "Tell me about the relationship between you and Liu Quanfu!" There are a lot of people who have committed felonies just because of the two of you. ”
