Chapter Twenty-Three: Homecoming
Zhao Shichang shouted: "Hua Bolun, the head of the Hua family! ”
"The villain is here!" Hua Bran bent down and replied immediately.
"Someone accused you of being shoddy and cheating businessmen when you were doing business, but is there such a thing?"
"Back to the adult's words, this is all out of nothing, the villain has been honest since he started business, and he doesn't dare to do anything to deceive business and deceive customers, please be enlightened."
"Then how can someone accuse you of cheating businessmen and fraudsters, and yet suffer from this prison?" Zhao Shichang continued to ask the same question.
If Fatrich didn't know how to answer at this time, then he deserved to suffer this prison disaster.
"Back to my lord, it's all an excuse to defraud businessmen, the villain has always had a good reputation for doing business in Yunzhong Mansion, and the adult can find out, but the third son of the Lu prefect wanted to marry the little girl, and after being rejected by the villain, he used the power in his hand to take the villain's store and shop for himself, not to mention, and also arrested the villain in prison, locked up, and asked the adult to call the shots for the villain." After Hua Bolun finished speaking, he knelt down in front of Zhao Shichang.
Xie Liru and Hua Jingting also knelt down.
"Get up! If it is indeed wronged, the official will make the decision for you. After Zhao Shichang finished speaking, he turned to Lu Jishou: "Lord Lu, how do you explain!" ”
"This ......" Lu Jishou was so frightened that he couldn't think at this time, Lu Jishou was a mediocre official, and the position of prefect was also bought for 300,000 taels of silver.
"Humph!" Zhao Shichang snorted, and Lu Jishou trembled even more in fright.
Hao Zhong spoke at this time, and said to the sergeant standing next to him: "Go and bring the third prince of the Lu Governor's Mansion to confront him!" ”
"Yes! My lord. The sergeant replied, walked out of the lobby, and let the local arrester lead the way, and arrested Lu Jiaren, the third son of the prefect.
When Lu Jishou heard that his precious son was going to be arrested, he finally couldn't hold it anymore, walked down the lobby, and knelt at Zhao Shichang's feet: "My lord's life!" It's all the villain's fault, it's the villain who asked his subordinates to do this, please let the dog go! ”
Lu Jishou was not promoted by Zhao Shichang, so he would be polite to him: "Whoever does the evil will be borne, no one else can replace it, and your sins will also be borne by yourself." ”
After Zhao Shichang finished speaking, he ignored Lu Jishou under his feet, and waited patiently for Lu Jiaren to arrive.
As the saying goes: When the wall falls down, everyone pushes it, and it is the Lu family at this time.
The local arrester knew that the Lu family was finished, so he was not polite, and directly took the sergeant to the gambling house to detain people, and arrested one by one.
Lu Jiaren saw that the catchers wanted to arrest him, so he arrogantly pointed at them and scolded them, and the sergeant behind him unceremoniously slapped him, and Lu Jiaren was honest.
As soon as he walked into the lobby, he saw his Lao Tzu kneeling on the ground, knowing that it was over, his feet were weak, and he sat on the ground like a pile of mud.
Hao Zhong kept shaking his head when he saw it, and then asked people to open the shackles of the three members of the Hua family, basically without trial.
How to try the Lu family's father and son next, it is not a matter for the Hua family, they can't wait to leave the prefect's yamen immediately at this moment.
Hua Yuyu stood up and walked in front of his father and mother, and forced himself to call his father and mother.
"My precious girl, how did you become like this!" Xie Liru cried with a face holding flowers and language.
Hua Yuyu immediately leaned close to Xie Liru's ear: "Mother! My face is made up! After calling the first sentence, the second sentence is much smoother.
Xie Liru stopped in time, turned into a smile, and gently typed the flower language: "You are scared to death!" ”
"Hee-hee!" Hua Yuyu turned to Hua Bolun and Hua Jingting again, and asked with concern: "Dad!" Elder brother! You're all right! Were you beaten in prison? ”
Hua Bolun and Hua Jingting were both stunned, feeling that Hua Lingyu was not the same as before.
Hua Yuyu also saw their expressions, but Hua Yuyu was very calm, and the excuse had already been thought of, so he said that he had honed it in the capital this time, and Liu Ma and Dong Xiaowan could both testify.
"It's okay! It's okay! Hua Bolun and Hua Jingting replied one after another.
"Master, madam, eldest son." Mother Liu and Dong Xiaowan also came over and shouted.
Unexpectedly, the little county lord at this time was also sensible, sitting on the chair and not moving, just staring at the two already big eyes.
"Come home, this is not a place to talk!" Flower language said to everyone.
"Yes, yes! Let's talk about it when we get home. Hua Bolun also said.
Hua Yu went to say hello to Hao Zhong, and took the little county lord's hand and walked out of the lobby with his family.
"This." Hua Bolun also saw a team of guards following, and thought that the matter was not settled.
"It's okay! Let's talk about it when we get home. ”
"Hmm!" Hua Bolun didn't continue to ask.
The father and son of the Hua family got into Cai Nansheng's carriage, and the others got into the carriage of the little county lord.
The prefect's yamen is only a small distance from Huafu, and it takes less than a quarter of an hour to arrive.
The gate of Huafu was still closed, and Liu's mother immediately stepped forward and vigorously slammed the door.
The door of "Squeak ......" opened, and the housekeeper of Huafu took a peek!
"Master, madam, eldest son, you are back." The housekeeper shouted excitedly while wiping his tears, and his body trembled slightly.
Mother Liu took the place of the housekeeper and opened the whole door, and Hua Bolun replied to the housekeeper with a smile while wanting to enter the long-lost home.
"Slow down, sir!" Liu's mother suddenly called out to Hua Bolun.
Hua Bolun stopped in mid-air with one foot, stunned, and didn't understand what Mother Liu meant.
"Wait! Wait a minute! Go first and then enter the door. After Liu's mother finished speaking, she ran to the courtyard by herself.
"What's going on?" Hua Bolun was confused by Liu's mother.
Mrs. Hua Xie Liru immediately understood what Mother Liu meant, and said to her husband with a smile: "Mother Liu will wait for a while, and there is no hurry at this time." ”
"Huh!" Chamberlain grinned.
When Liu's mother came back, she was holding a copper basin with a fire and a handful of wicker, and Liu's mother put the brazier in the middle of the threshold.
Hua Bolun laughed when he saw it: "It's still Mother Liu's thoughtfulness." ”
"Master first!"
"Good! Good! Hua Bolun replied twice, stepped over the brazier with her right foot, and Liu Ma swept back and forth on Hua Bolun's body with a wicker.
Then there was the lady, and finally the eldest son, Hua Jingting.
"Thank you, Mama Liu!" Hua Jingting waited for Liu's mother to sweep it up, and politely said thank you, the upbringing of the Hua family is really good!
"Sister! What is this for? I'm going to step over it too. The little county lord asked, shaking the hand of the flower language.
"It's bad luck! You don't have to cross. ”
"Hmm!" The little county lord is still very obedient.
Mother Liu moved the brazier to the side and let everyone else into the house.
Mother Liu saw that Cai Nansheng was still sitting in the carriage, holding a smoking gun, so she glared at him: "Why don't you come in yet!" Do you want me to invite you? ”
Cai Nansheng grinned, knocked off the ash of the cigarette gun, and then got off the carriage and walked into the flower mansion.
"Daddy! Mother! Big brother, this is the little county lord of the virtuous prince. ”
Entering the living room, Hua Yu had to introduce the little county lord.
"Ahh Hua Yu's words frightened the three members of the Hua family, this is a relative of the emperor, when they have seen the royal nobles, they quickly want to kneel down to the little county lord to say goodbye.
