Chapter 170: Vicious Punishment of the Wu Family (1)
"No, my lord, ask my lord to see it, it's this woman who stole it herself, it has nothing to do with me, she said this is my daughter's filial piety to my money, I happily accepted it, who knew it was her who stole the money, not ****, I was also biased, I don't know anything, it has nothing to do with me, if the son wants to catch her, just arrest her, she will admit that she took it, anyway, it has nothing to do with me, don't arrest me." Old Man Wu said loudly to Yan Shu with tears in his eyes.
The Wu family on the side was so angry that his body trembled when he heard it, on the one hand, he was annoyed by the shameless Chengdu of the old man Wu, and on the other hand, he felt sorry for the Gu family.
worked hard to steal the silver money for Old Man Wu, knelt down and was frightened, and even cut his own hands ruthlessly, just to have time to steal money.
But he was good, and in the face of danger, he actually pushed Gu Shi out.
At that moment, the Wu family felt deeply worthless for the Gu family.
If it weren't for Bai Shao pulling it, she would almost want to stand up and speak for the Gu family.
"Mother, now that Yan Gongzi is presiding over the situation, we need to speak when we need to speak, it's better not to speak out now." Bai Shao said.
Wu gritted his teeth and fell silent, and together with his family, watched Yan Shu try the case.
"Do you admit that you took the money?" Yan Shu saw that Gu Shi only cared about bowing his head and wiping his tears, so he patiently asked her, "Yes or no, you make it clear to me, I will go to the county lord and make the correct judgment for you." β
Gu Shi lowered his head, stood in place with some trembling, and said two words after a long time, "It's me." β
As soon as these two words came out, Old Man Wu immediately breathed a sigh of relief, shook his head energetically, and said loudly, "My lord, you can see clearly, this old woman said that she stole it, I was deceived, it has nothing to do with me, my lord let me go quickly, this is uncomfortable." β
Yan Shu ignored him, just looked at Gu's and said lightly, "Gu's, have you thought clearly, this crime of stealing, even if it is your own daughter's family, as long as the other party insists on the crime, your crime will be a hundred days in prison, a full hundred days, it may not be a short time, but you really live inside...... That feeling is only clear to me. β
When Gu Shi heard this, he couldn't help but tremble in fear, and his gaze at Old Man Wu began to hesitate a little.
Old Man Wu was afraid that she would turn back, so he hurriedly said loudly, "It's only been a hundred days, you can live in it, and when you come out in a hundred days, I will treat you well, and I will never beat you again." β
"Really...... Are you sure? Gu, who was still very hesitant just now, froze his gaze after hearing Old Man Wu's words.
"Of course, of course." Old Man Wu nodded busily.
"Mother, he lied to you, so he won't be good to you!" Wu shouted worriedly.
Gu Shi glanced at her, lowered his head silently, glanced at Old Man Wu with some reluctance, and then looked at his two sons twice, and then lowered his waist and said in a low voice, "It's me, it's me...... A hundred days, I confessed. β
Old Man Wu laughed happily on the side, but Wu stomped his feet angrily beside him, and even Bai Shao couldn't help but clench his gums.
This Gu family is really too naΓ―ve and stupid, and he was fooled by Old Man Wu like this, and he took the blame, so that the power of a good plan was lost by half.
Fortunately, at this time, Yan Shu, who had not spoken all along, finally spoke up.
I saw that he held the folding fan together in his right hand, knocked it lightly twice in the palm of his left hand, and then shook his head and said slowly, "According to the provisions of Article 136 of Dayan's law, if you hide the silver for the thief, depending on the seriousness of the judgment, those who deliberately conceal it and do not report it will be sentenced to 80 days in prison, and those who do not know it can delete the time at their discretion, but it will also take 20 to 50 days......"
This remark is quite literary, but the meaning is very clear - although Old Man Wu said that he did not steal, but in the end the silver was found on him, then he has at least one charge of hiding stolen goods, once Gu's theft is convicted, then he will be in prison for at least twenty days.
Twenty days......
Old Man Wu, who had been imprisoned and was unwilling to go in again after only three days, was so frightened that his legs weakened and he knelt on the ground.
Bai Shao stood behind Wu, listening to Yan Shu's slow words, his eyes rolled, and he hurriedly stood up, and said the other two charges he had prepared for Old Man Wu in addition to stealing, "Hui Gongzi, the people's daughter has something to say, our grandfather, just made a lot of nonsense in our shop, saying that our shop can't do it until it closes, and forcibly asks the people's mother's mother for eighteen pieces of cloth, all of you in these shops can testify for us, may I ask Gongzi, how should these two crimes be convicted in the law of Dayan?" β
"Harassing people's business is not a big crime, and it is only three or five days, forcibly taking eighteen pieces of cloth, which is equivalent to forcibly taking at least a few dozen taels of silver, and the crime is a little bigger, if Mrs. Bai San is willing to write this into the complaint, I am afraid that she will be sentenced to at least half a year." Yan Shu pressed the folding fan against his chin, and replied after a moment's thought.
"Little half a year......" When Old Man Wu heard this, his face had already rolled his eyes.
In the face of such a thing as imprisonment, only people like Gu who have never sat in it are not afraid, and those who have really sat in it know how terrifying it is......
"Little half a year ......" Bai Shao was taken aback, in her original calculation, these small crimes can also be icing on the cake, it is more difficult to determine the charges for Old Man Wu, after all, Old Man Wu is Wu's father, these things are just family matters.
Who would have thought that he could be sentenced to half a year...... It seems to be too exaggerated, you know, the theft of dozens of taels of silver is only a hundred days.
However, after Yan Shu smiled and winked at Bai Shao while everyone was not paying attention, Bai Shao came to his senses.
This guy ...... It's actually fooling people......
But it's okay, at least the old man Wu was so scared that he couldn't stand up, Bai Shao gave Yan Shu a look of satisfaction, and then gave him a compliment with his mouth.
It's just the word "great", Bai Shao never thought that the young man would exaggeratedly shake off the folding fan to cover the corners of his mouth, and laughed loudly, attracting the attention of many people in the store and onlookers.
Fortunately, everyone thought he was laughing at Old Man Wu's cowardice, and no one noticed the interaction between Bai Shao and Yan Shu.
Waiting for Yan Shu to smile enough, he folded the fan in one hand, looked at Old Man Wu seriously, and said loudly, "Presumably you are very clear about what crimes you have committed, then this son will take you back to Xieyang County, and after the trial of the magistrate of the county, how many days will you be convicted of other crimes......
After speaking, as soon as he raised his hand, he had to order the yacha to take Gu and Old Man Wu away.
At this moment, Old Man Wu finally turned his black eyes back, and hurriedly shouted at Yan Shu, "No, no, beg the adults to spare the grass people, the grass people don't dare, the grass people don't dare." β
After shouting, seeing that Yan Shu was unmoved, Old Man Wu suddenly remembered that the situation could be revoked, so he hurriedly shouted at Wu, "You unfilial daughter, do you really want to put your father and mother in prison?" Don't hurry up and withdraw the form, you unfilial thing, how did I give birth to such a thing as you, lack of heart and lungs, I knew that I would strangle you back then, so as not to find guilt for myself now. β
The Wu family was originally very angry with Old Man Wu, but now when he saw that he scolded him mercilessly, he was even more annoyed and cried, and choked up, "The father who instigated his mother to steal his daughter's money?" A father like you, what kind of father is it, if a father and mother have a choice, I would rather not have a father like you, I would rather I be an orphan girl......"
"Don't talk about those who don't have it, hurry up and revoke the lawsuit, otherwise you really want to put me and your mother in prison, don't you want to think about it, there is a father and mother in prison, where can your reputation be good? I'm afraid even your daughter won't be able to get married. Old Man Wu said in a vicious voice. for a better user experience.
