Chapter 17 Noble Men Help Each Other

"The yamen received a report that the two of you had committed theft, and now that you have obtained the stolen goods, what else do you have to say?" The catcher quickly walked up to the two, and in an official tone, he first buttoned the two of them with a thief's hat.

The two of them were stupid at first, and they came back to their senses when they knew that the official's voice sounded, and Li Chang immediately felt certain in his heart, and hurriedly crawled over and hugged the official's leg. "Official, this is all wronged, my husband and wife were wronged."

The catcher is not stupid, the two carpenters in the house fainted for no reason, and the man and woman in front of him were busy moving things, and it could be seen at a glance who was lying.

"Tell me why you and your husband and wife are in the Gu family's lumber shop."

At this time, Gu Qingru also reacted, and hurriedly cried and shouted, "Wronged!" I'm a girl from the Gu family, and it's wrong for me and my husband to come back to see my mother's house! ”

The official was also a little confused when he heard this, since he dared to say that he was a girl from the Gu family, it was impossible to be fake, but everything in the house could not be faked.

"Poor master, don't you know if you wake up the two who fainted?" At this time, the man with the hat suddenly spoke.

Originally, Li Chang and Gu Qingru were observing the situation, and they had no choice but to say that the man in the hat, Gu Chengyu, said that the eye knife of the husband and wife almost killed him.

"That's a good idea." The official's eyes also lit up, and he immediately ordered the two to wake up.

Xiaojiang Xiaohe woke up faintly, and saw the room full of officials and Gu Qingru and Li Chang kneeling on the ground, and his heart was overjoyed, and he understood that the young lady's plan had succeeded.

"You two wake up, tell me, this woman said that she is a girl from your family, so why did you appear here like this, and this man came to report to the official." The official messenger pointed at Gu Chengyu and expressed puzzlement.

In fact, he also knew in his heart that this woman was the girl of the Gu family nine times out of ten, and the reason why she was so troublesome was to confirm whether the Gu family wanted to protect this girl, otherwise these people would make something happen to themselves and cause trouble for themselves.

Xiao Jiang Xiaohe looked at Gu Chengyu, and some didn't understand why the person who reported to the official was Gu Chengyu, not another carpenter arranged by them, but this matter did not affect the overall situation, so the two of them did not say anything.

"Lord Hui, this is the girl of our Gu family, but she has already been married, yes, this is it. But this is a place to do business, and Sister Yi shouldn't go back here when she goes back to her parents' house. Although Xiao Jiang didn't finish speaking, everyone heard what he meant.

This loser wants to come back and steal her mother's things when she gets married!

Just when everyone despised Gu Qingru, Xiaohe suddenly snatched the craftsman's cheats from Gu Qingru's hand, "Oh my God! This is the ancestral secret book of the Gu family, and today the young lady emphasizes the secret book to be protected in every possible way, and the righteous sister actually wants to steal it. ”

"You're talking nonsense, it's clear that you two stole it, and we just got the cheats back." When Gu Qingru heard that Xiaohe wanted to pour dirty water on her, she hurriedly retorted, but she changed her way to shirk the responsibility.

Xiaohe shook his head disdainfully, "Sister Yi's words are wrong, Madame's cheats are naturally for me to show the carpenter, don't show me how to make wood, but you, take the cheats on the cheats, and you can't deny this thing all over the ground." ”

"You, you ......" The evidence is ironclad, Gu Qingru can't answer at this time, what Xiaohe said makes sense, the carpenter looks at the drawings What's wrong.

In order to let Gu Qingru and Li Chang be fooled, Qi Yao deliberately made a wooden drawing, although it was not a secret book, but it did record some wooden tools, so that this matter was more convincing.

At this time, Xiao Jiang suddenly knelt down and said to the official, "Please also ask the official master to call the shots, I don't know if I have lost anything today, if I let go of my sister-in-law, if something goes wrong, Xiaohe and I will be driven out of the timber shop, how will we live then!" ”

"Yes, yes."

What the two said was a miserable one, so that the catcher couldn't release him soon.

"Since the matter has come to this, you two steal first, sophistry last, what else is there to say, come, escort back, wait for the fate." Catch a quick minus.

"Yes."

"Yes."

The officials are all good at making a profit, and they tied up the two of them at once, and it was useless to let the two cry and struggle again, and they escorted the people away in three or two clicks.

"The official has worked hard, this is the wine money for all the poor masters." Just as the last catcher was about to leave, Xiao Jiang hurriedly went up and handed over two taels of silver.

Although this money is a bit much, the young lady said that it is easy to do things after spending money.

The official weighed the silver, and his face softened a lot, "This is our duty to catch fast, thank you little brother for trusting." ”

"Yes, yes."

After the capture was gone, the man wearing the hat also flashed out of the door, and he didn't even say hello from beginning to end, which made Xiao Jiang and Xiaohe a little confused.

Without further ado, the two hurriedly went to find the whereabouts of the other three carpenters, and finally found three of them in the firewood room.

"Wake up, wake up Uncle Lin." Xiao Jiang saw the three of them lying in the firewood room, and hurriedly stepped forward to wake them up.

Uncle Lin just woke up, still a little groggy, "Alas, we, what's wrong with us?" ”

Hearing this, Xiaohe couldn't cry or laugh a little, "The two of us still want to ask you what's wrong." ”

As soon as he heard this, Uncle Lin's memory instantly returned, "Oh, oh, I remembered, Miss Gu came this morning and brought tea to a few of us, and after drinking it, I didn't have any consciousness." ”

It turned out that Gu Qingru was afraid that she and Li Chang would be discovered this morning, so she had drugged the other three carpenters early, thinking of this, Xiao Jiang Xiaohe was glad again that the man with the hat was helping.

……

Family.

Qi Yao was sitting on the bed at this time, holding a bowl of black tonic soup in her hand, this was the perfect tonic soup that Wei Xiaoju ordered her to drink today, and listened to Xiaojiang Xiaohe's report on today's events while drinking the medicine bitterly.

"It's done?"

"Yes, young lady, we have already arrested my sister and brother-in-law, and the murderers are really them." Xiao Jiang's face was filled with righteous indignation.

"Hee-hee, didn't you already know about it?" Qi Yao could see it in her heart, but she was also happy to be able to catch those two people.

"However, how did you guess that the two of them would take the property in the house, young lady?" Speaking of this, Xiao Jiang was still a little puzzled.

Qi Yao took a sip of soup and looked up, "It's not difficult to guess, they tried to kill me several times just for the timber shop, how could they let go of so much money according to their greedy nature." ”

"This too. Oh, young lady, I remember that we were able to do it that day thanks to the help of a man in a hat. Xiao Jiang suddenly remembered the strange man that day, and after thinking about it, he decided to talk to Qi Yao.

"What's going on?" Qi Yao was a little curious, the man wearing the hat, this reminded her of the man who saved her that night.
