Chapter 19 Hu's Zhao's mother receives a boxed lunch
Qiu Zhixian asked Jiang Yaozu and the others again, straightened out the causes and consequences of the matter, and if there was no objection, he asked them to draw a detention in court.
The persons involved in the case will be imprisoned separately for men and women, and the case will be concluded tomorrow.
Jiang Jiang was assigned to a small room alone, which did not look like a prison cell. It's mostly clean and has an old bedding.
After a while, a mother-in-law about fifty years old came over and brought some food and tea for Jiang Jiang to eat.
Here, after Lu Zhixian got out of the court, he went directly to see Qiu Zhixian and told him about this matter, after all, this matter also involved him.
When Qiu Zhixian heard this, he was naturally shocked and angry, and said: "What a vicious woman! actually hit the wishful thinking on the head of the court official! Such an abominable woman should not be spared! ”
Lu Zhixian said: "This matter involves the reputation of adults, so Lu did not announce the verdict in court, just to ask Brother Qiu what he meant." ”
Qiu Zhixian has not officially taken over now, and this incident has occurred, which naturally has an impact on his reputation, and if it is used by people with intentions, it will seriously affect his career.
So he said: "This matter is naturally decided by Brother Lu, but in Qiu's shallow opinion, it must be severely punished to uphold the people's customs." ”
Lu Zhixian found out Qiu Zhixian's tone, and he had an idea in his heart.
When the next day was up, many people came to watch.
Lu Zhixian read out the verdict in court:
The criminal woman Hu is vicious. For many years, he persecuted his sister-in-law Jiang Qi'er.
There is coercion, and his joy comes first, and there is murder of his life later.
and jealous, spicy and fierce, despised by the neighbors.
The official media Zhao family has a bad heart and is greedy for money, so much so that he instigates others to seek money and kill him, and vainly tries to destroy the reputation of the imperial court.
The crimes committed by the two are all facts, and they confess without remorse.
Because of its extremely bad influence, this county must be severely punished to correct the people's customs. The Hu family and Zhao were imprisoned on the same day, and the autumn queen was beheaded.
The Jiang family's maid Xifeng's subordinates and Zhang Ma helped the family to commit evil and murdered the head of the family. Xifeng's crime is particularly serious, and from now on, she will not be registered as a slave, and Zhang's mother will either pay a fine of five taels of silver or receive a hundred boards in the court. After that, it is up to the Jiang family to decide whether to stay or not.
Jiang Yaozu is weak and his husband is sluggish, which makes his family restless, and he should reflect deeply after he goes back.
The Jiang family's maid Xu Lian'er stood up for the young lady and loyally protected the Lord, and the following crimes were punished in the court yesterday and will not be pursued today.
After the verdict was pronounced in court, Zhao's mother and Hu Shi were immediately imprisoned, and Xifeng was also escorted away.
Zhang's mother had no money, so she had to cry and receive a hundred boards, Jiang Jiang naturally couldn't take her in anymore, so his family took it back.
Jiang Jiang and Jiang Yaozu helped the injured Lian'er back to Jiang's house.
Although Lian'er's body hurt, her face was smiling, and she whispered to Jiang Jiang: "Miss, look at how blue the sky is today!" There will be no more clouds over you! ”
Jiang Jiang felt sorry for her, gently touched her hair, and said, "Silly girl, I remember your kindness to me, and I will repay you twice." You take care of your injuries first, and then talk about everything when your injuries are healed. ”
Back at Jiang's house, Jiang Jiang personally cooked a pot of wide noodles.
Summoned Jiang Yaozu over to eat together, after all, there were only three of them left in this family now.
What's more, Jiang Yaozu didn't watch his sister being killed at the critical moment, although he was weak and incompetent, he was not a bad person.
After a few days, Lian'er's injuries gradually healed, and she was able to go to the ground.
On this day, someone suddenly knocked on the door, Jiang Yaozu played the role of a servant at home during this time, and hurriedly went to open the door, only to see the official media Xu's mother standing outside the door.
When he saw Jiang Yaozu, he stepped forward to salute and say hello, Jiang Yaozu's second monk couldn't touch his head, so he had to return the salute vaguely and invite Xu's mother in.
Mother Xu asked as she walked, "I don't know if the girl is at home?" ”
Jiang Yaozu was almost frightened by the official media, so he said: "Mother Xu asked my sister what to do? If only you had something to say to me. ”
Mother Xu had no choice but to say, "Uncle Jiang doesn't have to be afraid, I'm here to give you good news." ”
Jiang Yaozu was even more strange and asked, "What happy event can I have?" "His wife has committed a crime, and she will be beheaded after the autumn, and both of her subordinates will also pay for it.
Mother Xu lowered her voice and said to Jiang Yaozu: "This time, Lu Zhixian asked me to be the matchmaker. ”
"Lu Zhixian?" Jiang Yaozu only felt that his mind was not enough: "Ask someone to be a matchmaker?" For whom? ”
Mother Xu looked at Jiang Yaozu like an idiot, shook her head and said, "My uncle, who else can it be?" Of course it's a young girl! ”
"Why do you want to be a matchmaker for my sister again?!" Jiang Yaozu shook his head like a rattle: "No one should beat my sister's idea anymore, even if I can't afford it anymore, I can support her for the rest of my life." ”
Mother Xu was angry and funny when she heard this, and said, "You haven't understood yet!" It was Lu Zhixian who took a fancy to the girl and asked me to be a matchmaker. Congratulations, Uncle Jiang! ”
"Huh?!" Jiang Yaozu was petrified on the spot.
It turned out that the county commander of Nalu County saw Jiang Jiang in the hall a few days ago, and he couldn't hold back his heart.
He is about to leave his post, but he is also transferred to other provinces.
His original wife was frail and sickly, and her appearance was ordinary.
He thought that although Jiang Jiang's reputation was not good, he was just a concubine, and good appearance was the most important thing. Second, they have to be taken to other places, unlike the local gossip.
Therefore, after this matter calmed down, he found the official media Xu's mother and asked her to come to Jiang's house to propose marriage.
And said that as long as Jiang Jiang agreed, he could take Jiang's family away, and Jiang Yaozu could also help if he wanted to take a career in office.
Jiang Jiang had already heard the conversation between Mother Xu and Jiang Yaozu outside, but she had already been aware of this matter.
It's just that he originally still had a fluke mentality, thinking that Lu Zhixian was going to leave after all, and there would be no more branches.
Jiang Jiang naturally wouldn't agree, but she still wanted to use this matter to test Jiang Yaozu.
So when Xu's mother came in and told her the matter again, Jiang Jiang only pretended to be six gods and said, "I don't know what my brother thinks about this matter?" ”
Jiang Yaozu on the side replied: "Son, you have suffered a lot over the years, brother, I have also figured it out, everything is fine as long as you are willing, I have nothing to say." ”
"I also know that I am blessed with a small life, indecisive, and it may not be a blessing to take a career in office, and I will only be an honest ordinary person in the future. If you don't dislike my brother for being incompetent, I will raise you until you are old! ”
Jiang Jiang heard Jiang Yaozu say this, so he raised his head and said to Xu's mother: "I'm tired of Xu's mother replying to Master Lu, I have been hard since I was a child, and I really don't dare to climb high." What's more, it is difficult to leave the homeland, so you can't do this family business. ”
When Mother Xu saw the Jiang brothers and sisters say this, she knew that there was no play, so she clapped her hands regretfully and said, "How did you say this?" I thought I was a good one! ”
But Lu Zhixian has stepped down after all, and he will leave soon.
is different from when you are in office, you can cover the sky with one hand.
