Chapter 25 County Offices
"Su Xiaoya, I'll put the words here today, if you don't give it to me, don't give an explanation to our family's Erniu, don't think about it!" Aunt Li pointed at Su Xiaoya's nose and scolded.
The surrounding villagers also pointed out, after all, Erniu's body was found near Su Xiaoya's farm, which Su Xiaoya had no way to deny, even if he went to the county magistrate, Su Xiaoya was also a suspect.
What's more, Erniu has always been honest and kind, and everyone has already regarded Erniu as a victim and a vulnerable group, so of course they will sympathize with Erniu.
Su Xiaoya looked at the indignant villagers, and could only say: "I didn't kill Erniu, if you don't believe it, Aunt Li, you can go and verify, I have nothing to do with Erniu's death!" ”
But no matter what Su Xiaoya says now, Aunt Li will not take Su Xiaoya's words to heart.
"I don't care, I want to see when you, the murderer, can confess!" Aunt Li screamed regardless of it, and directly asked the young man carrying Erniu's body behind her to put Erniu's body at the door of Su Xiaoya's house, and sat on the ground and cried.
Su Xiaoya had a headache, so she could only pull Lin and Li Orion into the house.
Lin said with a sad face: "Aya." What can I do? If this Aunt Li doesn't give up, our family's reputation will be ruined! ”
Su Xiaoya gently patted Lin's shoulder and comforted her softly: "It's okay, as long as Aunt Li knows that this is useless in a few days, she will leave." I haven't done that, and of course I'm not going to admit it. ”
Lin glanced at Li Orion, who was also full of sorrow, and could only sigh.
At night, Aunt Li was still crying at the door, and the Su family was impatient, so they could only close the doors and windows tightly.
Su Xiaoya was lying on the bed listening to Aunt Li's howling from time to time, and after thinking about it for a long time, she couldn't think of a clue, and she didn't know who would push Erniu down the mountain.
Su Xiaoya was thinking wildly in her mind, and suddenly found that Aunt Li's crying outside suddenly stopped for some time.
Su Xiaoya, who was worried about Aunt Li, had to put on her clothes and wanted to go out to see the situation.
"Aya, where are you going so late?" Hearing the movement of Su Xiaoya's door, the Lin family immediately ran out, looking at Su Xiaoya's neatly dressed appearance and a little worried.
Su Xiaoya said softly: "Mother, I'll go out and have a look, Aunt Li suddenly lost her voice, and I was a little worried." "Something has happened to Erniu, if Aunt Li has an accident at her door again, I'm afraid that the whole village will not let her go.
Lin watched Su Xiaoya go out worriedly, so he had to open the door in case Su Xiaoya was in a hurry.
Su Xiaoya walked out quietly, but suddenly saw a figure rummaging for something on the body of the lying Erniu.
Su Xiaoya thought that person was Aunt Li, but Aunt Li's figure was not as tall as this person, and she was not as sneaky as this person, after all, Aunt Li was Erniu's mother, what should she do not be open, you have to be sneaky?
"Who?" Su Xiaoya held the candle in her hand in front of her, wanting to see who it was.
But who knew that the person ran away directly, and Su Xiaoya didn't see what that person's face looked like from beginning to end.
"What are you doing, what are you doing!" Aunt Li suddenly ran over from a distance, and when she saw Su Xiaoya's candles leaning against Erniu's corpse, she immediately pushed Su Xiaoya away.
Su Xiaoya looked at Aunt Li helplessly, shone the candle in her hand on the ground, and really saw a few big footprints: "Look at these footprints, it looks like a man's, just now I saw someone sneakily rummaging for something on Erniu's body, it must be the real murderer!" ”
But Aunt Li still didn't listen, and kept patting Su Xiaoya and said: "What is really fake, my second cow was killed by you, I tell you Su Xiaoya, don't try to deceive me, I am not my second cow, I am not one of those men, your trick is useless to me!" ”
Su Xiaoya was helpless, this Aunt Li really couldn't make sense, she might as well play the piano to the cow, at least the cow wouldn't give herself two slaps from time to time.
Su Xiaoya, who couldn't explain the reason with Aunt Li, could only walk back with a candle. And the black shadow that had just been seen by Su Xiaoya was hurriedly walking towards Landlord Wu's house.
"How's it going?" Landlord Wu looked at his housekeeper expectantly and asked.
As early as the second day, the housekeeper had already told the landlord Wu about accidentally pushing the second cow, but the landlord Wu waved his hand indifferently and told the housekeeper that this person would definitely not live if he fell.
Today, the affairs of Aunt Li's family and the Su family are in an uproar, and the housekeeper is also watching the excitement, but the landlord Wu is afraid that the housekeeper is not clean enough, and what handle will fall on Erniu, so he specially asked the housekeeper to turn over Erniu's body, in case there is any evidence on Erniu, it will be over.
The housekeeper wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "I've been to see everything, but there's nothing." The housekeeper didn't dare to say what he had just almost discovered by Su Xiaoya.
Landlord Wu breathed a sigh of relief: "It's good if you don't have it, it's good if you don't have it!" You go back first! ”
The butler nodded, and left with a palpitation. Landlord Wu looked at the figure of the housekeeper and fell into deep thought.
On the second day, Su Xiaoya specially bypassed Aunt Li and left through the back door of the house.
She must know how Erniu died.
Aunt Li waited at the door of Su's house for a long time, and she didn't see Lin or Su Xiaoya go out, so she continued to scold.
The villagers who had nothing to do in the village gathered around again, and they were muttering quietly to the side.
When Su Xiaoya went home, she found that the door of her house was once again surrounded by water, so she had to use her hands to break through the crowd, rushed to Aunt Li and said: "I have already been to the mountains to see, there are still traces of fighting in my farm, and even the corpse of Erniu has many messy footsteps, as long as you can find the real murderer of Erniu from these evidences!" ”
As soon as Aunt Li heard what Su Xiaoya was talking about the real murderer again, she immediately jumped up: "I'm phew!" Don't talk nonsense to me here, you're the murderer! Don't quibble with me here! ”
Su Xiaoya wanted to continue, but Aunt Li rushed over directly, as if she wanted to slap Su Xiaoya.
Li Orion saw that the situation was not right, and came over directly and pulled Su Xiaoya into the house.
"This Aunt Li is a crazy woman, and it is not clear to you to reason with her." Li Orion said with a frown.
Of course, Su Xiaoya knew that she couldn't make sense with Aunt Li, but she couldn't be wronged for no reason, right?
Su Xiaoya, who was angry, could only slap the table viciously, and couldn't do anything.
The villagers outside the door saw that the matter was getting bigger and bigger, and they were afraid that they would be implicated, after all, Aunt Li was not easy to mess with, and Su Xiaoya's family, who were getting better and better now, were not easy to mess with, so they all left.
Aunt Li sat beside Erniu angrily, and suddenly the landlord Wu walked in front of her.
"What do you say? Do you really help my family redress their grievances? Aunt Li's eyes widened, what kind of person is this landlord Wu! Would you be willing to help yourself?
Landlord Wu nodded, glanced at Erniu's corpse and said: "It's really pitiful, I can't get used to seeing this kind of bullying myself, Aunt Li, don't be afraid, I will definitely call the shots for you when I go to the court!" ”
Aunt Li thought about it, if it was about financial resources, Su Xiaoya, a nouveau riche, would definitely not be as good as the landlord of Wu, let alone in terms of power, so she agreed immediately.
When the county magistrate sent someone to take Su Xiaoya to the county office, Su Xiaoya was rarely at home to play with Su Xiaoyu for a while.
"Why did you suddenly let me go? I didn't kill people, it has nothing to do with me. Su Xiaoya looked at the jailer who came to take her over, and said very calmly.
The jailer smiled: "Miss Su, it's not like you say it's okay, it's okay, the key thing is to see what the county magistrate says." ”
Lin and Li Orion were in a hurry, and they had to go to the county government with Su Xiaoya.
Su Xiaoya knew that the Lin family was worried about herself, so she had to intercede with the jailer and took the three of Lin to the county government together.
"Your Majesty Su Xiaoya, did you kill this Erniu, do you admit it?" The county magistrate has a headache, he was just told to take good care of this Su Xiaoya A few days later, this Su Xiaoya caused such a big disaster for herself, if Su Xiaoya is really the culprit, should she protect her?
Su Xiaoya calculated that it was the third time that she had come to this county office, and said very calmly: "It's not me." ”
Aunt Li was anxious, pointed at Su Xiaoya and scolded: "You shameless thing, you don't look at where this is!" Now that you have arrived at the county office, you still dare to be so hard-mouthed, and you are not afraid of being thundered by the sky! ”
Su Xiaoya didn't even look at Aunt Li, but just said to the county magistrate: "My lord, why don't you ask for an autopsy, and take a good look at how this Erniu died." ”
The county magistrate nodded, and now that Su Xiaoya does not admit it, it is the most appropriate way to ask for an autopsy.
Erniu's corpse was quickly brought up, and the experienced man didn't even blink his eyes, and quickly came to a conclusion.
"My lord, this person died of blood after a violent blow to the head." He calmly put away his things and said to the prefectural magistrate.
Su Xiaoya suddenly thought of the messy footsteps she saw at the bottom of the mountain that day, as well as the stones full of blood, and hurriedly said, "My lord! Yesterday I personally went to the bottom of the mountain, and found that there were messy steps, and there was even a stone full of blood, but this stone did not look like it was hit by Erniu, but as if someone picked it up and smashed Erniu. ”
Landlord Wu's face changed when he heard this, and he pointed at Su Xiaoya and said, "What are you talking nonsense?" ”
