A servant came out, and when he saw Lin Xiaowan, he was stunned.

"Miss Lin, there is another case?" The official grinned and asked.

There's no way, it's really Lin Xiaowan who came too often. Although there are not many big and small things in this county, there are not many that really make trouble in court. As for why he didn't come, it's hard to say much about the reason.

Like Lin Xiaowan, she has come twice in the rest of the month, but there is really none.

Moreover, the characters who provoke are one bigger than the other.

That is, Jiang Tingyuan was replaced as the county official, if it was someone else, it is estimated that the grass on the grave would have grown.

Lin Xiaowan looked at the official's expression, listened to his tone, and thought: How do you look like it, you have to say welcome there?

Immediately, the officer's gaze fell on Lin Xiao, and he immediately frowned. looked at Lin Xiaowan again, and the look in her eyes was like saying: You can be ruthless enough, can you be beaten like this?

"Don't mess around." Lin Xiaowan said angrily.

Why is she so much like a violent person? Moreover, as long as you have a head, you can tell at a glance that it wasn't her hand.

The official said: "What is brain supplement?" ”

Lin Xiaowan didn't beep with him anymore, and asked, "Is Master Jiang here?" ”

If you don't be there, it's just Master Feng's words, I'm afraid it won't be good. This drum is also beaten in vain.

"Yes, but Master Jiang is busy." The official said in a sloppy voice, "It seems that I am discussing some river management with a distinguished guest in Linchuan Mansion, I don't hear it very clearly, my lord sent me to buy some pen and ink tools." ”

"Well, good. Got it. Lin Xiaowan hurriedly sent the people away.

She also asked, why did she stop talking.

"Then I'll go first." With that, the official trotted away.

Lin Xiao tugged at Lin Xiaowan's sleeve and said, "Xiaowan, the adults are busy, let's not bother, right?" Forget it, I can help with that matter without leaving you, besides......"

Lin Xiaowan didn't object, but said: "I asked just now, if you decide to beat this drum, then go, but after knocking, there is no turning back." If you don't want to, you have to maintain your current life, and I won't advise you again. The decision is yours, not me. ”

"You don't have to ask me anything, no matter how busy Master Jiang is, the court will have to go to court, you don't have to think about this."

Lin Xiao was embarrassed and didn't know how to decide.

Lin Xiaowan's attitude made her even more uncertain. If Lin Xiaowan blindly persuaded her, she would definitely admit it, but now......

Lin Xiaowan was not in a hurry, nor did she urge, nor did she even go to see Lin Xiao.

Yin Zhi was on the side, pinching the corners of her clothes, her eyes kept changing between the two, and she was a little uncomfortable with the suddenly tense atmosphere.

After a long time, Lin Xiao made up his mind.

He bowed deeply to Lin Xiaowan, and then said to Lin Xiaowan with gratitude: "Thank you, Xiaowan, really." Thank you for being so kind to me and bent on helping me. ”

Lin Xiaowan said in her heart: It's over, there's no play.

When she looked at Lin Xiao, there was only sympathy and helplessness left in her eyes.

Lin Xiaowan let out a sigh: "Sister Xiaoxiao......"

Before he finished speaking, he saw Lin Xiao walking towards the drum, picked up the drumstick, and struck it vigorously on the drum surface.

Knock knock!

The dull sound of drums instantly filled the eardrums, and a smile finally appeared on Lin Xiaowan's indifferent face.

She suddenly had a great idea to change the status of women in the Great Zhou Dynasty...... No, it should be to change their thinking, just like Xin Tian'er, to have the ambition of 'who said that women are inferior to men'.

Women should be self-reliant.

In the prefectural government.

Jiang Tingyuan sat behind the table in an official uniform, looking at the bruises on Lin Xiao's face and the bandaging of the wound, and his brows couldn't help frowning.

The first time he walked into the hall, Lin Xiao was nervous. glanced at Lin Xiaowan and saw that she nodded to herself, so she calmed down a little. Slowly knelt down, and shouted in a low voice: "Please also ask the adults to be the masters of the people's women!" ”

"If there is any grievance, get up and talk back." Jiang Tingyuan said solemnly.

Lin Xiao got up, told what he had been told, and showed Jiang Tingyuan the injuries he could see, and then said: "The people implore the adults to be the masters, so that I will not be tortured like this in the future." ”

Jiang Tingyuan did not make a conclusion, but asked, "Where do you live?" ”

"Wutong Street, there is a big locust tree at the door. My man's surname is Shi, and his name is Jin Zhu. Lin Xiao replied.

"Go, bring Shi Jinzhu here." Jiang Tingyuan gave the order.

The two officials were ordered to leave.

Seeing Lin Xiaowan, Jiang Tingyuan asked, "Miss Lin and Lin Xiao are relatives?" ”

"No, it's a friend." Lin Xiaowan said.

"Is it a witness?" Jiang Tingyuan asked again.

"Do I still need a human ID?" Lin Xiaowan asked rhetorically.

The injuries on the body are so obvious, where do you need any witnesses? Could it be that an honest woman would dare to wronged her husband?

"Probably not." Jiang Tingyuan said.

He was just a little curious, why Lin Xiaowan would follow.

Moreover, Lin Xiao doesn't look like someone who dares to sue her husband, could it be that it was Lin Xiaowan's idea?

Of course, he won't ask.

However, looking at Lin Xiao's eyes from time to time, Jiang Tingyuan already knew that it was indeed as he thought.

Among the people she has seen, except for Lin Xiaowan, there is really no such eclectic person. Maybe Xin Tian'er is one, but it is far from it.

Jiang Tingyuan admires her very much, but this appreciation is not enough for outsiders.

Waiting for Shi Jinzhu's vacancy, Jiang Tingyuan said to Lin Xiaowan: "The fellow you said was not caught. ”

Lin Xiaowan knew that Jiang Tingyuan was talking about Liu Cui, and it was for the ointment. However, it seems a bit unreasonable that such a person was not caught.

Without waiting for her to ask, Jiang Tingyuan said: "The people who bought Liu Cui's ointment in Yulin County also have problems with several faces. That is, on the day you were accused, those people went to the stall where Liu Cui was selling to arrest people, but they were not caught. ”

After a pause, Jiang Tingyuan continued: "I guess it was seen by Liu Cui, so she ran away in advance." Later, I sent people to Xinghua Village, but I didn't catch anyone at Liu Cui's house. I heard that someone took it away. As for where it went, no one knows. ”

"Hmm......" Lin Xiaowan muttered.

She doesn't care where Liu Cui goes, as long as she doesn't harm people in the future and doesn't ruin her reputation under her guise.

It's just, who is helping Liu Cui?

Jiang Tingyuan asked Lin Xiaowan: "Now that people have not been caught, you will have to pay more attention to your business in the future." Otherwise, something might happen. ”

You may be able to dodge it once or twice, but how many times?

There will always be times when you can't tell the truth.

In addition, once it is rampant, no one will believe it anymore.

Lin Xiaowan was grateful: "Thank you Lord Jiang for your concern." ”

"I just don't want anyone to get hurt anymore. Of course, we don't want innocent people to be implicated. Jiang Tingyuan said worriedly.

Lin Xiaowan thought: She can't help it......

Fortunately, she is about to open a shop, as long as others recognize the place, it will be much better. After telling Jiang Tingyuan about the situation, Jiang Tingyuan also felt that it was a solution, but he still advised: "Let's pay more attention." ”

As he was talking, he heard someone making noise outside the county office.

"Why are you arresting me!"

"I'm just sleeping at home, what are you going to do!"

"Did I kill someone, or did I set it on fire!"

Then there was the scolding of the servant: "Be honest, hurry in, don't make noise!" ”

Lin Xiaowan looked over, and there was an unkempt and sloppy man walking in front of her, with a long stubble, and there were even wine stains on it. A loose suit with a lot of vomit on them, a pair of broken shoes under his feet, and he walked in scolding.

As soon as he came in, when he saw Lin Xiao, his eyes widened and he scolded: "Grass! Stinky woman, are you going to sue Lao Tzu, ah? You're a, it's against you! Who gave you the guts, ah? ”

"Look at me I won't kill you!"

As he spoke, Shi Jinzhu raised his arm and rushed over to fan Lin Xiao, Jiang Tingyuan's eyes were quick, and he raised his foot, "Bang!" With a bang, Shi Jinzhu was kicked out.

Lin Xiaowan was stunned.

Young heroes are very skilled!

originally thought that Jiang Tingyuan was also a scholar and intellectual, but he didn't expect that he also had unique skills and skills.

Shi Jinzhu was kicked by this kick, fell hard, covered his stomach and hummed for a long time before he could recover his strength, and then he sighed and shouted: "Why are you beating me!" The county lord is beating people, and there is no heavenly reason! ”

Jiang Tingyuan looked at Shi Jinzhu in disgust: "Are you still reasonable?" ”

He pointed at Lin Xiao and asked sharply, "Who is this person?" Your wife! Why did you beat me like this? ”

"Besides, above this court, how can you be allowed to come recklessly!"

"He's my mother-in-law, I'll fight if I want, what's the matter, is it illegal!" Shi Jinzhu shouted with a stiff neck.

"Why not!" Jiang Tingyuan said sharply.

Shi Jinzhu had no scruples, grinned, and said: "My lord, although I am a blind ruckus, I also know that in our Great Zhou Dynasty, men can beat their mothers-in-law." If you are not dead or injured, then you are not guilty. If you look at her body, it's a little bruised, it's all a woman's skin is tender, and it will appear when you touch it. ”

"You don't know, what kind of ointment she smeared, it's amazing. When it's done, the skin is good. This just took my money and went to buy ointment. You say, should I fight? ”

"Besides, she beat me, you can see that she scratched my body, and the flesh and skin fell off. Adults are not in charge of me? Girls dare to beat men, they have to be punished with canes! ”

After speaking, he pointed at Lin Xiao again and said, "You dare to sue me, it's really bold." When I get back, you'll see how I clean you up. ”

Lin Xiao was cowardly, and his body trembled like chaff.

Lin Xiaowan twisted her eyebrows, looking at Shi Jinzhu's ugly face, she really wanted to go up and kick him to death, and it was a hundred.

Jiang Tingyuan sneered: "Do you still understand the laws of the Great Zhou? ”

"The Law says, 'Whoever beats her husband, but if she beats her, she sits.' A hundred rods, and those who wish to leave, listen; The husband said to sit. To the above fractures, the severity of the injuries shall be examined, and the three degrees of fighting injuries shall be added; to the sick, hanging; the dead, beheaded; Therefore, the murderer will be executed by Ling Chi. His husband beats his wife, not to mention being injured; to the fracture and above, minus the mortal second. Su's wife volunteered to sit. Interrogate the husband and wife first, and if they are willing to divorce, they will be convicted of divorce; Those who do not want to divorce will be atonement for the sins of the wounded and should be seated, and they will still listen to the gathering; to the dead, hanging; Therefore, killing is also hanging. If the husband falsely accuses his wife and the wife falsely accuses the concubine, the false accusation is also reduced to the third degree. ”

When the words fell, I saw Shi Jinzhu clapping his hands and shouting: "Yes, this is it." Let's be punished with a cane! ”
