The door of the house was opened from the inside, and Master Xu walked out, with a faint smug smile on his face, and Aunt Gen's son followed closely, but his face was extremely heavy.

After the two of them stood still in the courtyard, Master Xu looked at the villagers gathered at the door, sighed heavily, and seemed to be very helpless to Lao Dao: "You make your own mistakes, bear them yourself, after a while, the people from the government will come to the door to arrest you, take the initiative to surrender, confess leniently, you should take the initiative to go to the yamen to surrender, you are unintentional, the old man will also intercede for you in front of Lord Bai, and strive for leniency." ”

Surrender? What's going on?

It was like a thunderbolt that hit Aunt Lao Gen and Uncle Lao Gen, their eyes widened in shock, and their eyes looked at their eldest son fixedly.

The eldest hung his head in pain, did not speak, and did not dare to look his parents in the eye.

The eldest lady still didn't worry about the boss, she came from home, and when she heard Master Xu's words to shirk responsibility, she immediately rushed over, grabbed the boss, and exclaimed: "Xianggong, why don't you speak?" You have been wronged, why should you be an innocent guy to bear the mistakes they made, is it that Master Xu is powerful and forces you to be their substitute ghost? ”

The boss glanced at his wife guiltily, and said, "I'...... I ......"

"What are you, you hurry up and explain the truth of the matter to the big guy, otherwise when you get to the official mansion, you won't be able to tell clearly, you can say it quickly!" His lady shook him anxiously.

From the beginning to the end of the matter, the boss told his mother early in the morning, so when his wife heard Master Xu say that it was none of her business, she immediately understood what was happening.

Old Man Xu's gloomy eyes swept the boss fiercely, and an invisible coercion rushed towards the boss, causing him to open his mouth but still didn't speak.

Master Xu stood up and said to the eldest lady: "Your father-in-law works in my winery, because he misplaced the materials, causing the medicinal wine to turn into poisonous wine, killing many people in the city, he will not escape the blame, if he confesses, I will also intercede for him, maybe Lord Bai will look at my face and spare the boss for the death penalty." ”

When Uncle Lao Gen and Aunt Lao Gen heard this, they suddenly became weak, their legs and feet trembled, and they couldn't stand, how could things come to this point? The two of them looked at their eldest son sadly, and instantly burst into tears.

When the onlookers heard this, they all looked at the boss in shock, it turned out that he had brewed poisonous wine and killed people, which was a capital crime.

The eldest lady doesn't know the inside story, how she is willing that her man is coerced, which can be seen from the boss's expression.

Besides, what Master Xu said lightly was not to deceive her man to bow down and confess, if he had such great ability, he could make the county magistrate give him face, why Xu Heming was arrested and put in prison a few days ago, these things have been spread to the small mountain village.

She didn't believe that Master Xu would bow down to the county magistrate for the sake of irrelevant people.

Now the boss is confused for a while, if Master Xu is in charge, he will die, and he is also a widow, becoming a laughing stock that everyone in the village can ridicule, and what is even more unacceptable to her is that her children are still young and can't live without a father.

She dragged the boss with tears in her eyes and begged: "You are telling the truth, don't be silent, I know that you were coerced by him." Don't be afraid, in front of so many villagers, you tell the truth, and the villagers can testify for us. ”

Master Xu glanced at him meaningfully, and shouted coldly: "Boss, if you don't want to affect your family, just follow me obediently." ”

The boss was disturbed by the girl's crying, he began to waver, his life has just begun, how can it end? And his parents, who are now crying bitterly for him, really make him reluctant.

If his death brings irreparable pain to his family, then he is willing to accompany his family and spend his life in peace and tranquility.

After making up his mind, he suddenly looked at Master Xu firmly and said: "Master Xu, I can't promise you, I can't be infamous just for money, and I can't shame the children." ”

"Boss!" Master Xu was shocked, he didn't expect the boss to regret it, so he threatened him again: "Whether it's intentional or unintentional, your poisoning of the people has become a fact, and the government will investigate it, and you will not be able to escape the responsibility after all." ”

"Master Xu, these are all what the second son ordered me to do!" The boss knew very well in his heart that he couldn't hide it anymore.

"Huh!" Master Xu sneered, "It is impossible for the second son to frame his own winery, besides, the medicinal materials were soaked in by you yourself, who can blame you for the wrong brew." "Master Xu insisted that it was the result of the boss's carelessness.

The boss was stunned when he heard this, as if no matter what he said, he couldn't prove his innocence, and a deep sense of powerlessness hit his heart. Good Chinese

Seeing this, his wife shook him angrily, "We can't be wronged like this, let alone let the real murderer go unpunished, think about it, who can testify for you in this matter." ”

Aunt Lao Gen's eyes suddenly lit up, and she nodded excitedly: "Yes, who else knows about this matter, let's go to him to testify, we can't be substituted ghosts for nothing." ”

"Yes, I don't believe that the official master can't find out the truth, boss, don't be discouraged, don't be afraid, Dad is willing to give up this old life, and he will get justice for you!" Uncle Gen said resentfully.

Master Xu was frightened by the united formation of Uncle Gen's family, and the things that had been discussed turned yellow again in a blink of an eye, and he felt inexplicably panicked.

If Lord Bai behaves abnormally and enforces the law impartially, he will eventually be investigated on Heming's head, and this time the situation is serious, Heming may not be able to get out of the way.

Before, because of the romance, killing a woman was a personal style problem. This time it was not one or two people who died, so it was not just one family that was hurt, but the people of the entire Luo'an City.

If the county magistrate dares to neglect his duties, I am afraid that the people in the city will not give up, and this matter will be a big problem, and Lord Bai's parents will not be able to be the official.

The onlookers turned from watching the excitement to being indignant, everyone hated the rich and hated the rich, and secondly, they were resentful of the oppression of the poor by the rich and powerful, and everyone accused Master Xu of bullying the weak.

Master Xu was speechless for a while, so he could only focus on his in-laws Gu Zhiping.

Gu Zhiping also couldn't help the arrogant villagers, and his eyes for help swept to his son Gu Laifu's house, Gu Laifu was told by his mother Wu Xiangqin that the master of the Xu family was visiting, and also said that the old man Xu had a big shelf and didn't want to be disturbed by his family, so Gu Laifu didn't show up in the house all the time.

Now that he was in contact with his father Gu Zhiping, he immediately felt that it was not appropriate to hide in the house at this time, after all, he was the new village head.

He raised his feet to go out, Wu Xiangqin hurriedly gave him a look, and did not allow him to go out and meddle in his affairs, Wu Xiangqin really listened to what he said just now, this matter is not a trivial matter, where can he manage it as a small village head.

But Gu Laifu didn't follow her, glared at her and was about to go out.

Wu Xiangqin tried her best to stop it, so she could only stomp her feet in the house hatefully.

Gu Laifu came out of the house, bowed politely to Master Xu, and then spoke: "Master Xu, since you and the boss have their own opinions, it is better to hand it over to the government to deal with, I believe that the government will definitely be able to deal with it impartially and give the innocent people justice." ”

Master Xu raised his eyebrows unhappily, Gu Laifu came out to pretend to be a big head, his position as village chief was still based on his relationship with the Xu Mansion, and nominally Gu Laifu was still Heming's brother-in-law, no matter how he said it, he should speak to the Xu Mansion.

Gu Laifu's brain was like missing a tendon, and he didn't seem to think of this at all, he thought that if he became the village chief and worked for the benefit of the villagers, he would be able to stabilize the position of the village chief, which would be ridiculous.

The villagers admired Gu Laifu's iron-faced selflessness, and gave him a thumbs up, and the door applauded.

"Good! Since this is the case, then let's see you in court, and see what the government will judge when the time comes! Master Xu said indignantly, he didn't expect this guy to be so stubborn and refuse such a rich reward.

Master Xu angrily left with his sleeves, since this road could not be taken, he could only think of another way as soon as possible.

"Hening, let's go back!"

The voice of displeasure came from outside the door, Xu Hening hurriedly responded, looked at Gu Laifu with appreciative eyes, and said goodbye, if you want to say that Gu Zhiping's family, only Gu Laifu is more upright.

"Brother Gu, farewell!"

"Master Xu, please!"

Soon, the sound of horses' hooves sounded outside the door, and the eldest lady didn't care about the eyes of the villagers looking at the show, so she threw herself into the boss's arms and raised her eyes worriedly: "Xianggong, what should we do." ”

Judging from the current situation, they have completely offended the Xu Mansion.
