Chapter 86
The time for the trial of the case of fraud in the township trial has been set, and the Criminal Department, Dali Temple, and the Inspectorate are all making preparations in an orderly manner. But I never expected that the halfway kill would bite the gold, and this fraud case would set off another **.
After Wu Juren's death, the people of Shuntianfu found the Wu family's ancestral home in the countryside. In front of Master Wu and Mrs. Wu, he told the news of Wu Juren's death.
Mrs. Wu had just recovered from a long illness, and she hadn't been able to get better, but now when she heard the bad news, she pouted on the spot. There were no decent doctors in the countryside, and before it was completely dark, Mrs. Wu swallowed her breath.
Mrs. Wu had not recovered from the news of her husband's death, and she followed her and sent her mother-in-law away. The youngest son is not yet a month old, and he is really entangled in his hands and feet everywhere.
The house leak happened to rain overnight, and Master Wu saw his old wife die, and his only son was gone, and the white-haired man sent the black-haired man, and even took his wife and went away by himself. For a time, the Wu family was in chaos.
The people who came to report the news from Shuntianfu saw that there were two old people in the Wu family one day, so they left a sentence asking Mrs. Wu to go to the official office as soon as possible to claim Wu Juren's body, and hurried back to Beijing.
After Zhang Zeming learned about the Wu family, he was completely relieved. Now that there are only orphans and widows left in the Wu family, no matter what happens, they can't make waves.
Even the people he secretly sent to watch the Wu family were withdrawn.
After a day of fainting, Mrs. Wu woke up to the cry of her own child. The Wu family's children were taken care of by the neighbor's enthusiastic aunt, and now Mrs. Wu's surname is the same, the aunt hurriedly hugged the child, looked at Mrs. Wu's pale face and no blood, sighed and persuaded: "Now that it's like this, you still have to clean up and cheer up, the two old men have to do things after their deaths, and your family's one can't let him stay in the official office all the time, right?" The child is still so young, he still has to rely on you...... You ......"
The girl was talking and talking, and she couldn't go on.
The man died, and so did the parents-in-law. Now I have a young son who can only drink milk, what's the use?
Mrs. Wu hugged her son, sat on the bed and staggered, but said forcefully: "Thank you, auntie, I understand." If I fall down again, the Wu family will really be dead. Mrs. Wu looked at her son in her arms, and the baby, who was not yet a month old, was leaning on her arms and falling asleep.
Mrs. Wu's tears fell one by one, and after a while, she raised her head to look at the woman who had spread all over the world, and begged: "Auntie, now I have no choice but to beg Auntie." Help me take care of this child first, okay...... Wait until I finish the funeral of my parents-in-law, I ...... I ......"
The woman was kind-hearted, and when she saw Mrs. Wu like this, she hurriedly said: "Don't worry, they are all from the villagers, your family is in a big trouble now, don't talk about me, even other people in the village will not watch it." Don't worry, my daughter-in-law has just given birth to a baby, and she has been raised well in confinement, and there is no shortage of milk. Brother, I'll show you first, and when you're done with this section, I'll pick him up. ”
Mrs. Wu held the child in her arms, and knelt down for the woman when she got out of bed, "Thank you, auntie, auntie!" ”
"Ouch, I can't do it!" The woman hurriedly helped Mrs. Wu up, patted her hand and comforted, "You too...... If you want to open a little, there are still children here? Right? ”
With the help of neighbors and relatives in the countryside, Mrs. Wu took care of the funeral of the old couple of the Wu family, and took her youngest son back to the city without stopping.
Wu Juren's body was still in the official office, and she had to go and bring him back.
The neighbors in Triangle Lane all know about the Wu family, and the Wu family has a good relationship with everyone on weekdays, especially Mrs. Wu, who does not look down on the neighbors because of Wu Juren's fame. Now that the Wu family is in trouble, the neighbors are naturally able to help. The Wu family is like this, you stay at home for a day, and his family stays for a day, and they are taken care of in turn.
Mrs. Wu brought back the corpse of Wu Juren and mourned. When sorting out Wu Juren's relics, Mrs. Wu found a letter that was hidden by Wu Juren.
Mrs. Wu is literate, and her name is written on the envelope, Mrs. Wu opened it and looked at it, and was frightened by the book in Wu Juren's heart.
She took out a solid wooden box from under the bed, opened it, and saw that it was indeed a silver ingot, which was one less than what Wu Juren said in the letter, and it was thought that it was used for the treatment of her mother-in-law.
And she said! And she said! Why did Wu Juren suddenly have money and be able to ask his mother-in-law for medical treatment...... "Why are you so stupid!" Mrs. Wu knelt in front of the box full of silver, crying so much that she was about to die. Wu Juren said in his letter that if he had any accidents, he would probably be killed by Shuntianfu Yin, and he asked Mrs. Wu to keep quiet, take the silver, take care of her father and son, and live the rest of her life well.
But Wu Juren did a lot of calculations, but his father and mother couldn't stand the pain of the white-haired person sending the black-haired person, so they went with him. Mrs. Wu's family is now ruined, looking at this box of Wu Juren's life-buying money, she can't wait to rush to Shuntian Mansion to die with Zhang Zeming now.
Mrs. Wu cried and fainted beside the bed, and woke up in the middle of the night, and the room was dark. The moonlight poured in through the screen window and landed right on the silver ingots in the box. Mrs. Wu leaned against the edge of the bed, looking at the box of silver in a daze, until the sun rose in the east and the bustle of the market came from outside.
Near noon, Mrs. Wu packed herself up and went out as usual. She greeted her neighbors as usual, went to see her son again, brought some broken silver and cloth to the man who took care of her son, chatted a few words, and then said that she had something to do, and left.
Mrs. Wu carried Wu Juren's letter in her arms, and she walked down the street, like a ghost. She didn't want to listen to Wu Juren's words, so she took the silver and went incognito for the rest of her life.
She was disgusted that the money was hot, and she was disgusted that it was stained with the blood of her whole family. She wants to sue, to seek justice for her husband, and to ask her Wu family for an explanation. But where can she go? She is a woman, at most, she has visited the morning market to buy some vegetables, rice and grain, and there are few opportunities to go out of the triangle alley, and now she can't go to Shuntianfu, where else can she go to complain?
Jingyong Mansion.
Xu Shiping retreated, summoned Xu's mother, stared at her and asked, "Is it real?" There can't be anything wrong this time! Mother Xu stepped forward and smiled at Xu's family: "Don't worry, madam, everything is taken care of." Mother Xu looked around, leaned closer, and said, "That article, my family stared at that student and memorized it, and not a word was bad." In the coming day, he went to court, even if the adults who tried the case wanted to confront him, he would keep Yu Wen'an speechless. ”
Xu Shi smiled with satisfaction, "That's good, I've endured that little bastard for so long, and this time I can't let him come out of the punishment department with all his beards and tails." By the way, how did I hear that there are several people in the third room in the past few days, what's going on? ”
Mother Xu sat on the footrest and smiled at Xu's family: "What can happen, Yu Wen'an has entered the Criminal Department, can't the one in the third room be heart-wrenching?" But what can she do? It's not just a matter of resignation. It's just a matter of sending a few people out of anger, Mrs. doesn't have to care, Ming'er is looking for an opportunity, let's just send a few more people over. ”
Xu Shi thought about it, what if Mrs. Liu sent all the people who were happy? As long as she Xu Zhi is still at home, Shuangxinzhai can't escape from her palm!
"Okay, so be it. You look at it more. Mrs. Xu shook the fan in her hand, suddenly got up and looked at the sky, and asked, "Why is it that at this time, I haven't seen Wen Min yet?" In the past, he always came to greet me at this time, where is he today? Mother Xu had just come in from outside, and she didn't know, so she raised her voice and beckoned a maid to come in and ask, and the maid replied: "Just now, Caiyue next to the second young master talked back and forth, saying that the second young master hadn't seen Miss Mu for a long time, and he missed it very much, so he went to talk to Miss Mu, and the second young master said that he would come back to say hello to his wife later." ”
The Xu family took precautions, but they still didn't prevent Yu Wenmin from going to Mu Qingling by himself. At the moment, Xu's face was not good-looking, and Xu's mother saw Xu's face change, and hurriedly sent the maid out, and persuaded: "Don't be angry, wife, the second young master is still young and ignorant." He and Miss Mu Jia have grown up together since childhood, and it is normal that they can't forget it for a while. ”
"Was he for a while?! He can say goodbye to me now for the sake of that dead girl, and I don't know what he will do for that girl in the future! Xu Shi said angrily, "It's also my fault, I shouldn't have used him to please the old lady in the first place, but let Wen Min grow up in the old lady's courtyard with Mu Qingling." ”
Xu shook the fan vigorously, but he still couldn't think about it, and pulled Xu's mother and said, "What kind of flattery did you say Mu Qingling used?" Why did Wen Min miss her when he was born?! Mu Qingling went back to Hangzhou to keep filial piety, and I didn't put a girl with good colors in Wen Min's room, this kid was accepted, but it didn't delay him to read Mu Qingling, Mu Qingling, he, he is going to be angry with me! ”
Mother Xu hurriedly persuaded: "It's so serious there, our second young master is small, his heart is pure and kind, and he and Miss Mu have grown up together, so they are naturally a little worried." In the future, when his wife married him to the second young grandmother, the young master's mind naturally turned around. ”
Xu Shi put down the fan, took a sip of the teacup, and said coldly: "Originally, I wanted to delay it a little longer, but now it seems that I can't delay it." I have to settle the Yuan family's family affairs as soon as possible, otherwise, I'm afraid that the old lady will not be able to sit still. ”
