Chapter 50: Surrender (Eight Chapters, Asking for Recommendation Votes)
Although the two young ladies have now returned to the Zhiyong Mansion, the people of the Arrest Department have not left, and they have stayed on the Grange to investigate the fire last night.
The biggest suspicion fell on Mother Lin, because she was the only one missing.
"Draw an image and post the arrest paper," said the man of the Arrest Division, who was familiar with such a thing: "I don't believe she can escape to the edge of the sky!" ”
"Don't bother with adults, I'll turn myself in, wife!" Mother Lin separated the crowd and walked in front of the catcher.
Everyone was surprised that she suddenly appeared, and they were a little stunned for a while.
"So you really put the fire?!" Bao Gui was the first to wake up, and viciously stepped forward to question Mother Lin.
"I want to make things clear in front of the old lady and the lady," Mother Lin didn't look at Bao Gui and said to the catcher: "Otherwise, I won't open my mouth even if I am killed." ”
"You stinky old woman, you really take yourself seriously, just your cheap life, it's worth asking the old lady and the lady?!" Bao Gui sneered.
"What am I afraid of as a half-buried person?" Mother Lin didn't take Bao Gui in her eyes at this time: "Or is it because the housekeeper is weak and doesn't dare to confront the old lady and the lady?" ”
"Joke, what do I have to lose?" Bao Gui was countered by Mother Lin, of course he was not convinced: "I'm going to ask the old lady and Mrs. to take off your old thief's skin in front of the master!" ”
He has made up his mind, Mother Lin can't help him, he is the housekeeper of this Zhuangzi, who doesn't talk to him?
Even if she dared to pull out the fourth miss, it would only make her die worse, how could Madame spare her?
Before, Bao Gui saw that Wei Yining was safe and sound, and he was still suspicious in his heart, for fear that this matter would not be done well and offend Wei Yiwan.
Now it seems that God is taking care of them, and Wei Yining has nothing to do, which just happens to prove their innocence.
So in the main hall of the grange, the masters of the Wei family, Wei Aluan and his sons all arrived, ready to listen to how Lin's mother turned herself in.
"The old lady and the lady have arrived, so if you have anything to say, say it quickly!" Catch quickly urged.
"Okay, I said," Mother Lin was neither humble nor arrogant: "I didn't put the fire." ”
"You old beggar! Dare to tease the masters! Bao Gui said and stepped forward to kick Mother Lin.
"Don't be presumptuous," Bao glanced at Bao Gui, and implied a warning: "Now that the old lady and aunt are here, and there are all the adults of the Arrest Division, where will it be your turn?!" ”
Bao Gui listened, and reluctantly retreated.
"Then why are you missing? Where were you when there was a fire last night? Why hasn't it been around until now? Bao looked at Lin's mother and threw out three questions in a row.
"I don't know who set the fire," said Lin's mother, "and I don't know why I was tied up by the housekeeper yesterday outside his house, and then people went to put out the fire, and the people who took care of me left." I was trapped all day, tired and hungry, and fainted, and when I woke up again, I was already outside the Zhuangzi. As for who saved me, I don't know. When I came back from outside, I heard that I was going to be arrested, so I simply turned myself in, so that I would not have to work hard for the adults. ”
Wei Yiwan was shocked when she listened to it, for fear that Mother Lin would tell her.
"Nonsense!" Bao Gui glared angrily: "Obviously, you old thing was a thief and was caught by me, I don't know why!" ”
"Butler Bao, you're too bloody," Mother Lin said, "Do you have to force me to tell the truth?" ”
"What truth do you have to say about you old thief?" Bao Gui said: "If you dare to slander people with red lips and white teeth, ask the government to bring you a heavy flail to parade through the streets." ”
"I guess you tied me up to kill people," Mother Lin ignored his threat: "I'm afraid that I will tell me about the ugly thing about you killing people and burying corpses!" ”
"What nonsense are you talking about?!" Bao Gui jumped up from the ground.
"Whether it's nonsense or not, just ask the adults to take a look," Mother Lin said: "On the tenth day of March this year, you buried a dead man under the dragon's claw locust north of Zhuangzi. ”
"You, you—" Bao Gui pointed at Mother Lin, cold sweat running down his forehead.
Bao's face also changed.
The men of the Arrest Division quickly dug up the dead people, not one but two, but apparently the two men were not buried at the same time, for one of the rotten ones was more severe, and apparently earlier.
Bao Gui's face was like ashes, and he could only look at Bao for help.
"I thought of the reason why the housekeeper hurt people's lives because his ugly deeds were discovered," at this time, Lin's mother took out a few documents from her arms: "When I woke up this morning, I found that someone had put these documents in my arms, all of which were proof of Bao Gui's embezzlement of land and property and money over the years. ”
Of course Bao Gui recognized this thing, this was his lifeline, it was originally placed in the secret compartment of the cabinet in his room, but now it is actually in the hands of Mother Lin.
Bao looked at Bao Gui: "Okay, you dog minion!" I told you to manage the Grange, who knew that you would do such a betrayal of the Lord's morals! ”
"Madame, save me, for the sake of my faithful service for you all these years!" Bao Gui knelt down and had something to say.
"Don't forget your wife and children," Bao said in a calm tone: "If you commit a crime alone, you should bear it alone." ”
Bao Gui's head hung down and he stopped talking.
I can't wash it anymore, and I just hope that Bao can treat his wife and children well.
The people of the Arrest Division took Bao Gui away.
"That Bao Gui is actually such a person," Mrs. Zhu shook her head and said: "The person in charge of Zhuangzi must be loyal and kind, although that Bao Gui is clever, but he is ruthless, such a person must not be used." ”
Bao stepped forward to apologize and said: "This matter is a mistake by the daughter-in-law, and the old lady taught a lesson." ”
Mrs. Zhu waved her hand and said, "With such a fuss, I don't want to stay in the Zhuangzi anymore." Let's pack up and go home tomorrow! In addition, I think this Mother Lin is good, and the three people who sent Afu Ashou back, so leave the matter of Zhuangzi to them for the time being! ”
"The old lady's idea is naturally the best," Bao said meekly, "and I will leave all the affairs of the Zhuangzi to them when I turn back." ”
Mother Lin came over with her husband and son to thank her.
Everyone went back to their houses to pack their things, but Wei Yiwan was not in the mood.
She was full of suspicions, but she couldn't guess the truth anyway.
Now that Bao Gui has also been arrested, she can't ask if she pushed Wei Yining into the house with a dog last night, why is she unscathed?
Could it be that the arsonist saved her? She must have been so lucky.
Wei Yiwan wanted to harm Wei Yining, although she knew that Wei Yining was very bold and even dared to fight tigers.
But she felt that Wei Yining was just reckless, and besides, the tiger was not killed by her.
She felt that seven or eight big wolf dogs were enough to tear Wei Yining to pieces, and those dogs had been starved all day.
"Someone must have saved her!" Wei Yiwan thought hatefully in her heart: "Wei Yining is really shit luck!" ”
But what is the truth of the matter?
Is there really a group of mysterious people who set the fire and saved Wei Yining and Lin's mother?
