Chapter 112: Prison Visit
When Xu Lanyin went to the kitchen to wash the dishes, Zhao Wu followed. He said in a low voice, "Lord Minhu returned to the provincial capital this morning. "The tone is very lost. And he said, "I'll do a good job and win over his subordinates." Master Min is a capable and good official, and he has a great future in the future. After the relationship with him is settled, it is easy to enter the six doors. ”
Xu Lanyin said, "The more capable officials are, the more they appreciate and like capable subordinates." Not only do you have to practice martial arts well, but you also have to learn to analyze the facts of the case. Take a good look at Yiju Restaurant, if there is really a major discovery and a great contribution, Lord Min will definitely transfer you to him on an errand. ”
The matter of Yiju Restaurant is not over yet, and Xu Lanyin hopes that Zhao Wu will continue to stay in Nanping County. If the Yiju Restaurant can be served early, not only Zhao Wucan make great contributions, but also hopes that the butterfly's small wings will fan the Fujian family for a longer time, and Xu Lanyin hopes that the good official can live a long and healthy life.
Early the next morning, Wang Sanni and Wang Jincai, who were dressed in plain clothes, walked towards the county seat with a basket of food. When this happened to the family, they didn't dare to take the donkey cart for fear that others would dislike them.
They came to the opposite side of the county office, where Zhao Wu was already waiting. Wang Sanni didn't stick up as soon as she saw Zhao Wu as before, but lowered her head and followed behind Wang Jincai, not daring to look at him more.
Zhao Wudao, "Let's go." ”
They walked to the right side of the county office, entered the prison gate, and went directly to the inner prison where the female prisoners were held.
The inner prison looks like a courtyard house, with ordinary cells on the east, west, and south sides, and two windowless cave-type cells on the north side, which are for female death row prisoners, and Mrs. Wang is locked here.
Zhao Wuarched his hand and smiled at Jiang Jiaotou, "Uncle Jiang, they are Mrs. Wang's family. ”
Wang Jincai gave Jiang Jiaotou a long bow, and presented a large handful of silver with both hands, including small silver ingots and broken silver, about a dozen taels. After holding Wang Laohan's funeral, he bought some things for the people who helped, left a little living expenses, and brought almost all the money.
Jiang Jiaotou smiled on his face, took the silver and said, "Let's go." ”
took them to the cell in the north, and Zhao Wu stood outside and didn't go in.
The death row was dark, only a palm-sized skylight on the roof cast a little sunlight, and the strong tide smell was mixed with a bad smell.
When they came to the iron gate, they saw an old woman crawling on a pile of grass through the iron railing, although they didn't see their faces, they knew by looking at their bodies that it was the princess.
Wang Sanni burst into tears and shouted at the iron railing, "Mother, I and Jincai have come to see you." ”
Wang Jincai also cried, shouting, "Milk." ”
Mrs. Wang turned her head and saw that it was really her daughter and grandson who came, and dragged her legs to the door. She confessed honestly and did not receive a heavy punishment, but she still received twenty boards for the false confession she began with.
There was an injury on her buttocks and she couldn't sit, so she knelt on the ground, stretched out her hand from the iron barrage and pulled Wang Sanni and Wang Jincai, and several people cried together.
Because the money was collected, the guards were far away, and let them speak considerately.
Wang Sanni took out a large bowl from the basket and placed it outside the iron door, and the bowl contained a roast chicken. cried, "Mother, why did you do that, my father died, you are like this again, our family is scattered." ”
Mrs. Wang stopped crying and said hatefully, "I don't regret killing that dead ghost." If he doesn't die, I will be beaten to death by him, and that family will still be scattered. Well, now that both of our old things are dead, the home is quiet. ”
Wang Jincai cried, "Milk, you can't die......"
He has hated Wang Laohan since he was sensible, and he thought more than once that he would take his mother and relatives away when he grew up. Although he was angry that Mrs. Wang wanted to blame his mother, she didn't want Mrs. Wang to die, this grandmother was really good to him.
Mrs. Wang touched Wang Jincai's head, wiped away the tears on her face, and whispered to Wang Sanni, "Sannier, listen well, before your eldest brother comes back, hurry up and ask someone to transfer the forty-five acres of land and house in the name of the dead ghost to Jincai, and you can't let Jincai go with your eldest brother and sell the property." The woman your eldest brother is looking for is fierce, and he hasn't brought any money to his family in the past two years. And they had a son, and they kept their possessions, and they were pitiful when they got rich. Then he said to Wang Jincai, "Good grandson, no matter how you coax Lao Tzu and that wild woman, you can't go with them." You must first stay in the countryside and keep filial piety for your father for three years, and then give me filial piety for three years, no one can object to this reason. In six years, you will be older, marry a daughter-in-law in the countryside, and live with your stupid mother. You have to be good to your sister-in-law, and when you get married, give her ten acres of land as a dowry......"
Although the princess was sentenced to be absolutely righteous, she could not enter the ancestral tomb, and the tablet could not be worshiped by future generations, but the descendants had filial piety to keep filial piety to her, and others could not control it.
Mrs. Wang confessed, and Wang Sanni and Wang Jincai cried and agreed.
The men talked for more than a quarter of an hour, and the cell boss came over and said, "It's time, it's time to go." ”
Several people cried a little louder. Wang Jincai got up and walked a few steps first, Wang Sanni's hand was grabbed by Mrs. Wang, and she didn't get up, she felt that Mrs. Wang had something to say to her in private.
Mrs. Wang whispered in Wang Sanni's ear, "I buried a hundred taels of silver next to the pigsty in the backyard. If you are obedient to your wealth, you will obediently give you ten acres of land in the future, and half of the silver will be given to your family. If he is like his father, and does not give you the land, then you will take all the money to your mother-in-law's house. I'm the one who is going to die, don't spend any more money for me. The voice was louder again, "If you are looking for a man, you have to be honest, you have to have more eyes, the man is not worrying, and he quickly wants to separate." Don't be like your mother, end up like this. Also, you must not be a little woman, the little woman is more angry than me and Jincai Niang. ”
With that, he retracted his hand.
Wang Sanni and Wang Jincai left crying.
The two followed Zhao Wu out of the cell, and Wang Sanni begged Zhao Wu to help transfer the fields and yards under Wang Laohan's name to Wang Jincai's name. A few days ago, she had paid someone to deliver a letter to her brother to finish the matter before he returned.
Zhao Wu nodded and agreed, and asked them to bring the deed to him tomorrow, and he took them to the scribe to go through the transfer procedures.
Wang Sanni and Wang Jincai knelt down and kowtowed to Zhao Wu again, they didn't expect this matter to be done so easily.
Zhao Wu said, "Live a good life in the future, don't learn from your grandmother, they have harmed the family." ”
Wang Sanni and Wang Jincai wiped their tears and agreed.
Zhao Wu is very satisfied, one of his good thoughts, a gesture of his hands, can bring hope and life to others. So much so that he was touched by his actions.
On the way back to the village, Wang Jincai said regretfully, "Aunt, it would be great if Uncle Zhao could be my brother-in-law." He's a good guy and he's capable. ”
