"In the Donghui murder case, the victim Wu Dagui, who was one in Chinese New Year's Eve, died by slashing the back of the head with a wood knife, and after investigation, the murderer was Wu Dagui's wife Jiang Shi, who colluded with Jiao Manshi in the neighborhood and broke it for her husband, so she colluded with Jiao Manshi to kill her husband Wu Dagui. Lan Ting briefly summarized the facts of the case that he learned through the file.

"Old friends, can you feel that the truth of this case is as recorded in the file?"

"As far as I know, Jiang did not admit guilt, but claimed that her husband Wu Dagui was killed by his brother Wu Ergui, but it was only the only visual evidence of the murder, that is, Wu's mother confessed that her eldest son was killed by an adulterer, and Jiao Manshi was indeed missing, and there was also circumstantial evidence such as Jiao Manshi's wife, which also confirmed that Jiao Manshi absconded from home on the night of the crime, and after torture and questioning, Jiang finally pleaded guilty." Lan Ting said objectively: "Although there is a suspicion of being beaten into a trick, there is no evidence to prove that the Jiang family was wronged. ”

"In this way, does Zhao Sheren agree with Hu Tong's judgment on this case?" Hua Xiaoji couldn't help but snort coldly, and even his title changed, showing his dissatisfaction.

"If Brother Hua knows that there is something else hidden in this case, why don't he persuade the son of the Jiang family to submit a complaint for grievances, so that the case can be retried in a justifiable manner?" Lan Ting did not answer the rhetorical question.

But the resentment in Hua Xiaoji's heart faded a little.

"Since you know that Wu's sister-in-law's son Yun Kang is not convinced, it seems that he has been privately investigated, but even so, how can you not know that Yun Kang is just the age of the chief horn, his father was killed, his mother was wronged, the real murderer is still his uncle, and the accomplice is his grandmother! Not to mention this case, it is also related to Hu Tong's dereliction of duty and bribery, if he really wants to make him a child, he may not only not be able to save his mother, but also bury Yunkang's life! When Hua Xiaoji said this, he got up angrily, but he bowed to President Lan.

"Therefore, it can only be Hua who complains to his old friend, asking the old friend to know the state, and then retry this unjust case, and return the innocent to clean up, punish the most evil to respond to the crime, investigate and deal with corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and strictly enforce the law."

Lan Ting did intend to use Hu Duan as a breakthrough, just found out that the Wu family's murder case seemed to be strange, but he didn't expect that a "bitter master" came to the door, he didn't plan to put a high shelf in front of Hua Xiaoji to refuse to welcome back, but although he was not on guard, he accepted a gift from Xueyou, and immediately returned the gift, but he didn't have time to say yes, and listened to Xueyou's promise like a golden voice-

"If the old friend can help the Jiang family and son, I would rather follow the old friend for ten years!"

Afterwards, Tang Hui, the scholar who had been in charge of pouring tea and handing water next to him, was full of disapproval of this Hua Xiucai who took the initiative to ask for help and still regarded himself very highly, sent people away with his front foot, and complained to Lan Ting with his back foot: "The villain has never seen such a arrogant person, do you think Uncle Xiezuo can still wronged him?" What kind of ability does he have, if he hadn't happened to meet Miss Yin today, he wouldn't have been able to see his uncle's face at all, such pedantic and incompetent, what can he expect him to do! What else do you say is only ten years, and after ten years, he must take the imperial examination again, and the uncle has raised him for ten years, and his feelings still take advantage of him, which is really ridiculous. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a knock on his head.

Lan Ting looked at this "servant" who was actually not much younger than him angrily, and stopped to teach a lesson: "You are getting older this year, and you haven't seen much knowledge, but you have dyed a pair of eyes with snobbery?" You said that Hua Langjun is incompetent, how can you not think about how he can conclude that the Jiang family has been wronged? The evidence he mentioned earlier, although not conclusive, also pointed to suspicious places, if he were to preside over this case, he would definitely be able to find out, and this talent alone would be better than many pedantic Confucian students. ”

"Uncle still admires Hua Langjun quite a bit?"

"Although Hua Langjun has lost his practice, but his conduct is upright, because of his poor family, he is often helped by Wu Dagui, and he has never been like those self-proclaimed so-called scholars, who think that the funding of others is really deserved, and he is willing to flatter and dedicate to him, and he receives it complacently, and never thinks about repaying his kindness, and this alone is worth appreciating and befriending." Lan Ting Zhengse: "You remember, you must not be rude in front of Hua Langjun in the future, if you let me know, your snobbery will not change......"

Before he finished speaking, Tang Hui was already in a hurry to kneel on the ground: "The villain doesn't dare, where does the villain dare to be snobbish, the villain is just stupid and shallow, not as far-sighted as the uncle, the villain knows that he is wrong, and he will treat Hua Langjun as a grandfather in the future!" ”

Lanting: ......

Does Hua Jun know that he inexplicably has an extra grandson?

——

When Lan Ting got acquainted with Hua Jun, Chun Gui sighed in the inner house.

The reason is that Mrs. Shen was invited by Mrs. Xue today, and went out to the banquet with great interest, because Chungui was still in filial piety, such a banquet was naturally impossible to attend, but she was not depressed because she couldn't go to the banquet, and the root cause of the long sigh was caused by another person who went out, Yin Xiaomei.

Earlier, Yin Xiaomei happily came to look for the spring return, said that she was going to go to the market, and asked if there was anything to bring with her, and the spring return should also be prepared to give the future sister-in-law Lan Xin's meeting gift because she was thinking about it, but she was worried that she didn't know her sister-in-law's preferences, and when she saw Yin Xiaomei, she thought that the two girls were similar in age, and maybe Yin Xiaomei knew Lan Xin's preferences.

As soon as Yin Xiaomei heard the word "Lan Xin", she jumped back and waved her hand again and again: "Xiao Low persuaded the eldest grandmother not to try to please the second girl Zhao, just the second girl's brutal spirit, no one in her eyes, the eldest grandmother gave her a golden house, and she still only responded to Heng Mei coldly, both waste of mind and money, maybe it is still self-seeking ridicule, and there is no need to be serious." Besides, I've always been far away from that little demon star, where do I know her preferences, this time Xiao Low really can't help the big grandmother. ”

After speaking, she ran away, for fear that Chungui would force her to ask more.

It seems that the future sister-in-law is indeed extremely difficult to get along with, rude and willful, but this sister-in-law is Lan Ting's sister, and she is also born by Mrs. Zhu, so Chungui can't get along with her sister-in-law.

Let's not talk about getting along in the future, just about this greeting gift, do you have to ask Lan Ting?

Chun Gui was at a loss, hesitated, and heard the news that Mrs. Shen had returned from the banquet, so she put down this rather troublesome matter for the time being, and according to the ceremony, she needed to go and ask Mrs. Shen if everything was going well when she went out today.

However, the Xue family's mansion is only three miles away from the state government, and there is not a square, and there are two adjacent cards.

Unexpectedly, Chun Guiren was still standing outside the door curtain, and he heard Mrs. Shen's resentful voice in the door curtain, and he was going home like a belly of anger and was venting. Chun Hui hesitated again, not knowing whether to disturb at this time, but Wen Xi just picked the curtain and came out, but he couldn't avoid it, so Chun Gui had to go in.

I saw that Mrs. Shen had already changed out of her clothes to go out, wearing a homely half-worn skirt, and only a hairpin on the crow crow's hair bun was like a flower, crooked on the kang bed, although Guo's mother fanned the wind for her, her cheeks were red, and she didn't know whether she was hot or angry.

Every time she returns in spring, she is always kind and pleasant, but her son is not in the mood to take care of her daughter-in-law, and she is still sulking.

However, Mother Guo was afraid of the embarrassment of returning from the spring, and she also took Mrs. Shen's temperament, and said with a smile: "Grandma came to persuade Mrs. quickly, but it is just for some frivolous and ignorant women, who have been sulking for so long, and the slave and maid are clumsy, no matter how much they persuade Mrs. to extinguish the fire." ”

Sure enough, not only was it useless, but it was like blowing up the red-clothed cannon in Mrs. Shen's heart.

"What's so great about her? Her husband Hu Duan, just a general sentence, when he saw the master, he didn't want to be a respectful official, just by relying on her, he dared to laugh at my Shen family's shallow foundation, not as good as her Fei family is a generation of scholars and eunuchs! Regardless of whether she was afraid of making a joke about Chungui, Mrs. Shen simply poured out all the grievances she had suffered today.

It turns out that the banquet convened by Mrs. Xue today is not related to the birthday celebration or wedding ceremony, but because of the current etiquette and customs, although the women are ashamed to show their heads and confine the women to the inner house, but the women after marriage are not as beautiful as the ladies to be married, and there are many fewer restrictions than the ladies to be married, especially the noble women, for their respective husbands' families and children's marriages, they are rarely allowed to come and go.

The Xue family is a high-ranking family in Fenyang, and Mrs. Shen is a family member of Zhizhou, so Mrs. Xue will naturally not be intentionally slacking off and obviously rusty, and in today's banquet, since Mrs. Xue invited the family members of officials such as the Fei family, it is even more impossible to leave Mrs. Shen alone.

But even Mrs. Xue didn't expect that with the reprimand of Duke Rongguo by the emperor, the battle in Fenzhou officialdom had become more and more intense, and even the idle gathering between female dependents was to compete against each other.
