Bai Wangyuan glanced at Xu Cui'e and Gu Zhiping, who were kneeling on the ground, and asked Xue Yan suspiciously: "What does the person kneeling in the hall have to do with this case?" ”

Finally mentioning them, Xu Cui'e's body suddenly became agitated, and she crawled on the ground in fear: "My lord, we were also killed by Daoist Lin, and I hope that my lord will see it and make decisions for the grass people." ”

"Oh?" Bai Wangyuan glanced at Xue Yan, while Xue Yan looked at Gu Youan and Du Lan, and then did not express his position, but quietly waited for Bai Wangyuan to hear it.

Sure enough, Bai Wangyuan continued to ask: "Let's listen to this official, how did he trap you?" ”

"My lord, Daoist Lin said that there are demons in my family, and he is alarmist, and he has collected more than 200 taels of silver from us, please make the decision for us to recover this silver." Gu Zhiping said clearly.

More than two hundred taels of silver? Bai Wangyuan was taken aback, seeing that the two of them looked like poor people, how could they come up with so much silver?

This aroused Bai Wangyuan's suspicions, and he lowered his face coldly and interrogated: "What are you doing?" Where does the money come from? ”

Gu Zhiping noticed that Bai Wangyuan was suspicious, and he didn't dare to hide it, but he was embarrassed to say that it was his daughter who took refuge in the son of a rich and noble family, and was thinking deeply about how to answer.

Bai Wangyuan immediately shouted, "Bold! Did you do something bad about stealing chickens and dogs, and abducting and cheating? Recruit from the truth!"

Gu Zhiping was frightened and panicked, and suddenly admitted, "My lord, it was given by my daughter's wishful husband, the grass people and their husbands are both honest croppers, and they have never done anything bad with a bad conscience, and I hope that the adults will see it." ”

Du Lan pursed her lips disdainfully, she expected that it was true, Gu Zhiping's family was really thick-skinned, and Ruyi Langjun could say this kind of thing, obviously it was his daughter who took the initiative to approach Xu Heming and did what he liked.

Bai Wangyuan's scrutinizing gaze looked closely at Gu Zhiping and Xu Cui'e, seeing that their appearance was ordinary, not outstanding, their daughter was very good-looking, and she could get into the eyes of a rich and noble son?

Gu Zhiping was furious when he saw it, but Xu Cui'e flashed a touch of pride on her face, and showed off: "Lord Hui, my daughter's Ruyi Langjun is the second son of the richest family in Luo'an City, Xu Heming." ”

Hearing this, Bai Wangyuan was slightly surprised in his heart, their daughter was actually with Xu Heming, now he had to try it carefully, in case it didn't go well, he would provoke Xu Heming's hairy boy, run up and cry to his wife, and in the end he would have to suffer a beating.

Xue Yan was dissatisfied, and glanced at him sharply, "Lord Bai, the case was tried off, right?" ”

Bai Wangyuan was stunned for a moment, he heard that these two untouchables could tie up the high branches, and he wanted to extort a sum of money, but he didn't expect that in the end it turned out to be the nephew of his wife. He laughed: "Lord Xue, in your opinion, how should this case be tried?" ”

In addition to Xu Cui'e and Gu Zhipi, Du Lan, Gu Youan and Xue Yan were all well aware of the personal relationship between Bai Wangyuan and Xu Heming.

His tone was similar to that of Daoist Lin when he tried him, which showed that he wanted to favor Gu Zhiping and his wife again.

"Lord Bai, these two people are in cahoots with Daoist Lin who is bewitching the public, disregarding people's lives, doing evil, and almost killing Mrs. Gu. Lord Bai can't end this case easily, right? ”

"Mrs. Gu?" Bai Wangyuan looked at Duran, who had not said a word from beginning to end, suspiciously.

Accepting his gaze, Du Lan hooked his lips and sneered: "Lord Bai, I seemed to see a person who looks like Xu Shikun on Anshun Street in Luo'an City a few days ago, but I should have looked away." ”

Hearing this, Bai Wangyuan was shocked in his heart, he hadn't paid attention to it just now, but now he heard the meaning of Du Lan's words, so he looked at Du Lan and Gu Youan again, could it be that this little lady was the woman who was imprisoned last time? She has Sheng Jing's support behind her, and Lord Xue is indeed tightly protected by her side.

He can't bend the law for personal gain, but he can't offend Madame either, and after a brief thought, he began to make peace with the mud.

"Prisoner of the hall, do you really collude with Daoist Lin to plot to kill this Mrs. Gu?"

Xu Cui'e looked frightened, "My lord, the prisoner didn't have it, the prisoner was just confused by the traitor Lin Daoshi, the prisoner woman had no lies, the prisoner was willing to testify against Lin Daoist and seek justice for all the people who were victimized by him." ”

The corners of Duran's lips twitched, Daoist Lin had already been beheaded, and she said this as nothing more than a snake.

Obviously, Bai Wangyuan didn't approve, and picked up the shocking wood hall and snapped, "Hugh has to quibble in front of the official, come to people, read that they are ignorant and deceived, and the official will punish them at his discretion, and each person will be hit with twenty boards!" ”

"My lord, the grass people have been wronged, my lord." Gu Zhi's flat face was as dead as ashes, and he begged Bai Wangyuan bitterly.

"My lord, the prisoner was wronged, it was the damn Lin Daoist who coaxed us with clever words, we lost our silver, and we were victimized, my lord must be clear and persistent, the law."

"Shout out again, add 20 boards per person!" Bai Wangyuan stared.

As soon as these words came out, Xu Cui'e and Gu Zhiping begged for mercy in their hearts, but they didn't dare to say it again.

With Xue Yan escorting, Duran let out another bad breath, and now Xu Cui'e will always stop for a while, hoping that she can reform herself, otherwise she will never be merciful.

The days passed quietly, and half a month later, Duran's Shilixiang shop opened, and on this day she invited many villagers to cheer her up and increase her popularity.

Shanwa Village went to the craftsman couple who built a new house for her family, Aunt Zhang and her two sons, Zhao and Du Er, Du Liang. Mr. and Mrs. Du, Du Mi, Du Fang. All the people who came were relatives and friends, and in order to seek good luck, Duran specially made eight dishes, which means that the future will be rich.

For a while, relatives and friends alone occupied half of the tables in the lobby, and where had the people in the village seen such dishes, everyone rushed to grab the dishes as soon as they were served on the table.

Only Xue Yan on the second floor waited for this table to drink and talk.

Old man Gu naturally sat at Xue Yan's table, Chen Jingting went back to Shengjing's hometown this time, missed the few days when Duran was calculated by Daoist Lin, and began to fight as soon as he sat down at the banquet, and was stopped by Xue Yan without saying a few words.

He was full of displeasure, but then he thought that today was the day of Duran's opening, and he didn't say anything bad about it.

Aunt Zhang is the most active in the atmosphere, "Old man Gu, let's follow your Duran to eat and drink, you won't care, right?" ”

Old Man Gu smiled heartily, "Hahaha, you are willing to get close to Duran, which means that she is popular, this is a good thing, and she will definitely have a lot of money in the future." ”

After hearing this, Boss Du also followed suit, "My nephew is a woman, and everyone will not suffer if she is close, but we can't always be cheap, as long as Du Lan is short of manpower in the future and needs help, I think the villagers of our Shanwa Village are rushing to do it." ”

"Boss Du, you rushed to say this good obedient word, let's just open our mouths and eat, ahaha."

Du Lan was able to open such a generous restaurant, Du Er was also quite proud in his heart, everyone took turns to say it, he coughed lightly, "Cough, everyone is joking, but as long as Lan Lan is in need, let's all try to help as much as possible." ”

"That's, even if you don't say it, we all know it in our hearts." Aunt Zhang said with a smile again.

Gu Youan has been helping in the kitchen, and only came out to say hello when Duran was almost done: "Everyone is having fun today, whoever is going to get drunk, I am responsible for sending everyone back." ”

"You'an, you kid can say polite things. It is worthy of a good lady like Duran, who teaches it. "Someone is ridiculing again.

Gu Youan laughed a few times, and everyone could see this embarrassed expression clearly.

Boss Du took the lead with a wine glass: "Don't patronize and say, let's have a toast first, and I wish you a prosperous and prosperous Shilixiang Restaurant." ”

"Okay." Chen Jingting was arrogant, and he drank the wine in the cup.

There was a period of staggering, everyone's mouths hardly stopped, and from time to time someone praised Duran's ingenuity and the dishes he made were full of flavor and flavor.

After a while, Duran came from the kitchen, and everyone raised their glasses to congratulate Duran, and everyone took turns to say an auspicious word, saying that Duran was full of joy and smiling.

While a few people were laughing, a crackling firecracker sound sounded outside the door, which was deafening. Everyone looked out of the door curiously, only to see a man in a dark red brocade robe stepping in.

Duran and Gu Youan hurriedly went downstairs to greet them, "Brother Xu, no wonder you came the latest, you dared to give us a big gift." ”

"Hehe, it's open, on such a festive day, how can you do it without the sound of firecrackers."

Gu Youan beckoned Xu Hening to go upstairs, and Xu Hening was followed by two guys, holding two jars of high-grade daughter Hong and sending them upstairs.

With Xu Hening, the richest son in Luo'an City, the villagers stared at him intently, and some even wanted to touch the edge of his clothes in disbelief.

You must know that in the eyes of these poor people, how high the Xu Mansion is, it is rare to see it in three lives.
