Chapter 58: Arrested

Song Yaoyao glanced at the Li couple coldly, followed Xue Xingzhou away, and the surrounding villagers gathered in twos and threes, pointing at the two: "Alas, is it really Li Wu's fire?" ”

"Who knows, the officials are here, I think the eight achievements are."

The discussion of the people around him stimulated the Qian family, and she stiffened her neck and shouted: "What are you talking nonsense, it is the Song family who wronged my son, what kind of bullshit are you putting around!" ”

Everyone saw that she looked like a shrew scoundrel, and they didn't bother to quarrel with her, so they dispersed.

After returning to the Song family, Xue Xingzhou looked at the dilapidated house of the Song family, frowned and said, "There are no people living here, you can live in my house." ”

Song Yaoyao was stunned for a moment, shook his head, and said, "Thank you, Brother Xue, but don't worry, my father discussed with my cousin and went to live with him for a while." ”

Xue Xingzhou moved his lips and didn't say anything, but his face was a little annoyed, and Song Yaoyao rejected him and felt a little guilty in his heart.

But there is a difference between men and women, what is the matter with her dragging her family into his house, not to mention that Dongmei is still in confinement.

Song Yaoyao wanted to apologize, but Xue Xingzhou spoke first and said, "It's me who was worried, I'm sorry." ”

Song Yaoyao looked at him stunned, and Xue Xingzhou continued: "I will think about it in the future. ”

Before Song Yaoyao could say anything, Song Kuan came over with an ox cart, Song Mu had already packed up her things, and hurriedly beckoned everyone to carry things, and Xue Xingzhou took the lead in taking all the weight.

Xue Xingzhou sent them to the place all the way before going back.

Song Kuan is Song Shanggong's eldest son, and he is about to get married, Song Shanggong has just built a new house for him, and he happens to live in the family of Song Dad.

Song Yaoyao's family settled down in three side rooms, and the main room was Song Kuan's future wedding room, and they were embarrassed to live there.

Song Yaoyao lived in the smallest room, which was originally used to put farm tools and sundries, and there was almost no place for anyone to move after setting up a bed, so she wrapped a few bags of silver and stuffed them under the bed.

After a few days, Dongmei slowly recovered, and although the two babies were still thin and weak, they also survived with their tenacious vitality.

Song Yaoyao discussed with Father Song and Song Rong whether to rebuild the house or move directly to the county seat.

Song Rong and Father Song hesitated for a long time but decided to stay in Shangliu Village, this is their roots, and there is some land on which they depend, and they are reluctant to leave.

Song Yaoyao nodded, and didn't say anything, since it was settled, she had to go and do her own business, Zhu Jingxing and Feng Liang came to look for her the day before yesterday, when she had just moved over, it was when she was in a hurry, so she briefly explained and let the two go back first.

entered the city, found Zhu Jingxing and Feng Liang, and the three of them found a restaurant and sat down.

Zhu Jingxing glanced at Song Yaoyao and said with concern: "Shopkeeper, is the family settled?" ”

Song Yaoyao nodded tiredly, and then asked, "How is it about explaining your affairs?" ”

Feng Liang said: "Xue Zhutou copied a copy of the list of Yaxing to me, I looked everywhere in the past two days, and I still found one connected together, but there are two courtyards near Qiushi Street not far away, the location is good, and the surrounding people are also simple." ”

Song Yaoyao pinched the bridge of his nose and said, "It's really not good, let's just do this, have you found Xiao Zhu's worker?" ”

"It's booked, there are a total of twenty people, I have checked the family background and there is no problem, and I also said that the salary of 20 Wen per person per day is good, as long as the house is found, it can start at any time."

Song Yaoyao opened his eyes and said: "Let's eat first, go to see the house after eating, and go to Hua'an County to purchase raw materials as soon as possible after settling down, we can't delay when the flowering period is about to pass." ”

The three of them quickly solved the meal, walked to Qiushi Street, and when they passed by the street where the county government was located, they happened to meet Xue Xingzhou and Liuzi.

Xue Xingzhou was a little surprised and asked, "My Auntie, why are you here?" ”

Song Miao Niang didn't expect to run into it, and replied: "The family is a little more stable, I went into the city to be busy with business, are you going out?" ”

"No, I'm looking for you."

Song Yaoyao was stunned: "Looking for me?" ”

"Yes, Li Wu caught it."

Song Yaoyao's eyes lit up, and he grabbed Xue Xingzhou's sleeve excitedly and asked, "Really caught it?" When was it caught? ”

Xue Xingzhou glanced at his sleeve lightly, but did not throw it off, and replied: "This morning, I caught it in Guandi Temple." ”

Song Yaoyao was excited, and raised his voice: "You go and inform my brother, I will follow Xiao Zhu and Xiao Feng to see the house first, and then come back to the county government to find you." ”

Xue Xingzhou nodded, and the two separated.

After taking two steps, Song Yaoyao suddenly froze, turned around and shouted, "Brother Xue." ”

Xue Xingzhou turned to look at him, his expression remained unchanged, but there was a slight doubt in his eyes, as if he wanted to ask her something again.

Song Yaoyao smiled and said, "Thank you." ”

Xue Xingzhou was stunned for a moment, then the corners of his mouth rose slightly, a smile quickly flashed on his face, and he nodded and replied, "You don't have to be polite with me." ”

Song Yaoyao's nose was sour, and she quickly turned her head and closed her eyes, she felt that she seemed to be crying more and more recently, but looking at Xue Xingzhou, she felt an indescribable sense of security and satisfaction, this feeling rushed in her chest, and it could easily make her eyes wet.

After the two parted ways, Song Yaoyao followed Zhu Feng to see the house, the location was appropriate, the size was also appropriate, except for being far away, there was nothing else wrong with Song Yaoyao thinking about Li Wu, and after reading it roughly, he made an appointment with the shopkeeper to talk about it tomorrow.

Then he went to the county office in a hurry, and Zhu Feng and the others followed.

Xue Xingzhou and Song Rong hadn't arrived yet, and Song Yaoyao waited for a while.

When the people arrived, the county order opened the hall in shock.

Song Yaoyao knelt under the hall, looking at Li Wu who was pressed up, Li Wu was shackled, the whole person lost a lot of weight, and his face was unkempt, Song Yaoyao recognized it for a while before he recognized it, seeing that he was not doing well, Song Yaoyao felt a little happier in his heart.

The county order listed Li Wu's crimes one by one and asked him if he pleaded guilty.

Li Wu curled up on the ground, scared and weeping, but his eyes were dripping, and he cried: "The villain is wronged." ”

Before Song Yaoyao could attack, Xue Xingzhou stood up and said, "My lord, the shopkeeper of Wangjiang Tower can testify that there were indeed people similar to Li Wu who bought wine from him on the day of the crime, and Yan Liu in the south of the city can also prove that Li Wu bought a cigarette from him the day before the crime." ”

The county commander bowed his head and said, "Bring witnesses." ”

After the shopkeeper of Wangjiang Tower and Yan Liu came in, Xue Xingzhou asked them to identify Li Wu.

The shopkeeper tilted his head and looked at it for a while, and replied: "Lord Hui, it's this person, because he is dressed in shabby clothes, and the grass people are afraid that he eats white food, so he has been paying attention to it for a long time, and he will not admit his mistake." ”

Yan Liu also said: "Back to my lord, Li Wu did buy cigarettes from the villain. ”

Li Wu was stunned when he heard this, and then retorted loudly: "Even if the villain buys wine and smoke, it can't prove that the villain did it, I bought wine for my own drink, and I bought cigarettes purely out of curiosity." ”

Xue Xingzhou moved, and Liuzi came in with a rag, and when he opened it, there were ten silver ingots inside.

"This is the stolen goods you walked away, no more, no less, exactly two hundred taels, what else do you have to say."

Li Wu's face turned pale by the way, and his body collapsed on the ground as soon as he became weak, and an unknown liquid flowed down his trouser legs, and there was a smell of shame in the air.
