Hu Wenhe also saw Han Chuan from a distance, and smiled slightly embarrassed at Han Chuan.

When the ox cart arrived, Han Chuan asked Lati to take Xiao Shuang'er and take the things in first, and then asked Mama Zhong, "If you are not feeling well, go in and rest for a while." ”

Mama Zhong didn't speak, only shook her head.

When the crying woman saw Mama Zhong, her eyes lit up instantly, and she immediately jumped up and hugged Mama Zhong's legs, and called out repeatedly, "Sister! Sister! You're back! Sister, your nephew and brother-in-law have been arrested and sent to prison! You save them... Please save them..."

The woman's voice drew onlookers from all over the neighborhood.

Han Chuan felt that her restaurant had been in the limelight these days, and she was always watched as a juggler under the overpass.

Han Chuan looked at Hu Wenhe, still wearing an official uniform embroidered with cormorants, and a black gauze hat was also neatly worn, so he should still be on an errand. Looking at Mama Zhong's sister again, although she was wearing civilian clothes, her cuffs, placket, and skirt were stained with thick gray stains, her yellow skin was thin, and her cheeks were sunken fiercely, and it seemed that she had suffered a lot these days.

Imprisoned?

Han Chuan looked at Hu Wenhe suspiciously.

Hu Wenhe saw that there were more and more onlookers, and the main family also came back, so he coughed, "Let's go in first, let's go in and talk about it." ”

Han Chuan nodded, stretched out his hand and helped Mama Zhong into the house, Hu Wenhe followed, the woman wiped her tears when she saw that the big guys had entered the house, got up neatly, and followed in with her head buried.

The little twin opened all the closed window lattices of the hall, and the sunlight poured on the ground. Han Chuan caught a glimpse of the woman involuntarily dodging the sudden light, and thought of the word "official prison" in the mouth of the talented woman...

Is it a crime?

But if you make a mistake, how can you be here?

There is still Jing Zhaoyin's six-rank official standing next to him?

The "Lianmei" in Mama Zhong's mouth knelt on the ground, covered her face with her hands, cried so much that her liver and intestines were broken, and she muttered indistinctly, "... Your nephew... Previously tested Xiucai... Someone seduced him... said that there was a question that could be leaked to him in advance... And we believed... You don't want to take the money out... Ah Liang and I will house ... The house is out..."

Han Chuan listened expressionlessly.

The two of them are really a pair of jackals, tigers and leopards. No matter what you do, you want to take shortcuts everywhere, and you want to get everything through improper and unreasonable means.

Hu Wenhe saw that the woman's words did not match the words before and after, and remembered the advice of the chief officer, so he patiently took over the conversation and explained in detail, "Her son cheated in the examination for Xiucai, used the house as collateral, took two hundred taels of silver from the pawnshop, and spent money to buy the exam questions in advance to dredge up the relationship. Now, her son not only failed the township exam, but even after the East Window incident, Jingzhao Yin Shunteng touched their house and confiscated the house, and the students who took the exam were sentenced to exile of 3,000 miles, and the parents who mortgaged the house were punished more severely, cut down into slavery, and deprived of all the chores under their names. ”

Hu Wenhe paused, "When Jing Zhaoyin went to search the house, he also found an unused one hundred and ten taels of silver. Hu Wenhe looked at Mama Zhong, "You are the only blood relative of this family, according to the laws of the Great Wei, if you take out the money to make up for the pawnshop and the interest generated by the mortgage, this house and other chores can be returned to you." ”

Hu Wenhe took out a booklet from his sleeve and read it: "... Twenty acres of forest farm in the eastern suburbs... Ten acres of land in Houhai... Ten acres of Xiangshan Mountain..."

These should all be the properties that Mama Zhong purchased after leaving the palace.

Han Chuan's eyes widened.

？？？

Could happiness come too suddenly?

This... It's like lying down and dropping a pie!

Han Chuan promised Mama Zhong that she would definitely get the house back, but she had no power, no power, and the only thing she had in her hand was silver. She looked at those two people coldly, one evil and the other stupid, and they would definitely sell their houses and land. When the time comes, she will pay for it and return it to Mama Zhong.

Now...

What is this?

As long as she makes up the remaining 90 taels of silver and the resulting breath from the pawnshop, all the properties that Mama Zhong purchased after leaving the palace can all be returned to the original owner!

Forest farms in the eastern suburbs?

In the forest farm in the eastern suburbs, growing oranges is the most delicious!

Sweet and sour! Juicy and big!

Hahaha

Han Chuan patted his chest, a little wanted to laugh, but when he saw Mama Zhong's serious expression, he stopped laughing.

Han Chuan seemed to be smiling but not smiling, and successfully amused Hu Wenhe.

It's cute.

Or like a goldfish.

Hu Wenhe's expression softened a lot, and then asked Mama Zhong, "Are you willing to make up the silver and interest?" If you want, we can go to the official office today and get the paperwork done. ”

Yes, yes, yes!

Han Chuan looked nervously at Mama Zhong.

She knew that Mama Zhong was soft-hearted.

But now is not the time to relent!

If you are soft-hearted at this time, you are cruel to yourself!

Mama Zhong pursed her lips tightly, her hands were clenched tightly into a ball, and as soon as she spoke, her voice was hoarse, "... They... Are you a slave? And my nephew, exiled for a few years? Can you—" Mama Zhong took a deep breath, "Can you still come back?" ”

"Their deeds of life are deeds, not deeds of death. If they are willing to do what they can, and have enough money to redeem themselves, the Lord will let them go. Hu Wenhe explained, "As for your nephew, he will be exiled for 3,000 li to work as a coolie, and he will have to do it for ten years according to the law. The imperial examination is not allowed to be a child's play, it is not only to cheat and save his life, but also to see that although he got the questions, he did not take the test. ”

Han Chuan almost wanted to laugh.

It's just so sad.

I didn't even pass the question when I bought it in advance!

This level many times!

Ten years of exile means a lifetime of exile!

The woman's cry was louder.

She has nothing!

Nothing!

House! Earth! Son!

Nothing!

And cut down into slavery!

The woman knelt on the ground, crawling and grabbing the corner of Mama Zhong's skirt, her face was full of tears, and she looked very pitiful with her head tilted, "Sister... Spare us... Tell me about this official... We are all ghosts and hearts, and lard is blinded by hearts... You've been a minion, you know how bitter it is! And your nephew, who has been studying since he was a child and has never done heavy work, you... Save us! ”

Mama Zhong's skirt was swayed and swept around.

I can't persuade this kind of thing.

Han Chuan and Hu Wenhe glanced at each other.

Hu Wenhe smiled involuntarily.

Han Chuan also smiled back generously.

After a long time, Mama Zhong silently took her legs away, pulled the skirt out of the woman's hand little by little, and her voice choked, "Since you know that being a slave is hard, why do you still treat me like this?" ”

Mama Zhong's eyes were red, but no tears fell, "Since you have violated the law, then you will suffer it." I, who is a sister, don't care about you, I pity you in everything and let you. ”

"But others won't let you tolerate you! Not the government, not the law! In my life, the only thing I'm sorry for you is just to make a living for my family, I chose to enter the palace to earn money, but I didn't teach you well! ”
