Song Yaoyao was unmoved, but Song Rong was a little unbearable, took a step forward, and said to the county order: "My lord, Li Wu and I have grown up together since childhood, and now it seems that he is just a thought, and he also has a sense of repentance, please let the adults take it lightly." ”

Song Yaoyao hurriedly said: "Brother! ”

Song Rong gave her a "you don't care" look and continued to plead with Li Wu.

The county commander was furious and said: "It's ridiculous, this county has decided the case, how can it be changed if it is said." ”

Song Rong gritted his teeth and said: "In this way, the county commander, the small people will not sue me." ”

Song Yaoyao was so anxious that he couldn't do it, he beat the drum of grievances and then withdrew the lawsuit, that would be a board, and it was not worth beating for people like the Li family.

The county magistrate narrowed his eyes and asked, "Do you really want to withdraw the lawsuit?" ”

Song Rong said: "Yes, the grass people withdrew the lawsuit. ”

The county order is completely annoyed, really when the county government gate is your backyard, can you come if you want to, such a child's play, but you can put him, the parent official, in his eyes!

Drew the token and threw it on the ground, and said: "Call me, withdraw the lawsuit in court, and beat him 20 sticks first!" ”

Song Yaoyao was in a hurry, and seeing that he couldn't persuade Song Rong, he could only look at Xue Xingzhou with a pleading face, hoping that he could help.

Xue Xingzhou naturally wouldn't sit idly by, and stepped forward to the county order and said: "My lord, the Song family is just an ordinary farmer, they don't understand these rules, they have no intention of colliding with adults, and they also invite adults Haihan." ”

Xue Xingzhou is the old man of the county government, and even this head catcher is still promoted by the county order, which can be regarded as the right-hand man of the county order, so he still has three points of face in front of the county order.

The county magistrate glanced at Song Miaoniang, and still said coldly: "Xue Zhutou, is this trying to bend the law for personal gain in the county?" ”

Xue Xingzhou knew the temperament of the county order, took a step back, lowered his head and said, "Don't dare, your lord is wise." ”

The county magistrate glanced at him, but he was not carried away by the beauty, and insisted on saying: "The law cannot be abolished, fight." ”

After that, he flicked his sleeves and got up and went directly to the backyard.

Xue Xingzhou breathed a sigh of relief and gave the other catchers a look.

The catchers are all human spirits, and since the adults have acquiesced, they naturally want to give face to their bosses.

The stick was picked up heavily, and it was gently lowered, and there was not even a trace of blood coming out of the twenty sticks.

After the execution, Song Yaoyao floated up Song Rong, because the beating was not heavy, Song Rong was better than Li Wu, who had only received a few sticks, and he was still able to stand up on his own.

Song Rong arched his hand at Xue Xingzhou, and said gratefully: "It's troublesome for Xue Xingzhou again." ”

Xue Xingzhou waved his hand, indicating that it was okay.

Facing the mother and son of the Li family, Xue Xingzhou put enough money to catch the head, and said: "I found Daddy Song's doctor for him, and I also know the medical expenses that should be paid, you are fellow villagers, so you don't need much, just one hundred taels of silver, remember to send the money to the Song family when you go back." ”

When the mother and son of the Li family heard this, they howled: "Poor master, where can our family get so much money, if there is so much silver, why do we have to borrow money to marry a daughter-in-law." ”

Xue Xingzhou said: "Then write an IOU, how much you want, until you are done." ”

After that, he asked his subordinates to take pen and ink, and personally wrote an IOU, so that the Li family's mother and son could draw a pledge.

Qian howled: "Poor master, our family really has no money." ”

Xue Xingzhou said: "Howl again, let the county magistrate hear it, and your son won't have to go back." ”

The mother and son of the Li family sobbed and drew a charge on the IOU.

Song Rong wanted to ask for mercy, but was stopped by Song Yaoyao.

After the inspection, Xue Xingzhou said to the Li family's mother and son: "Let's go." ”

Qian glared at the two brothers and sisters of the Song family hatefully, picked up his son, and limped out of the door.

Xue Xingzhou handed the IOU to Song Yaoyao and said in a low voice, "Take it." ”

Song Yaoyao accepted it, and became more and more grateful to him in her heart, since the first meeting, Xue Xingzhou has been helping her, she really can't repay her.

wanted to say something, but Xue Xingzhou opened his mouth first: "Although I asked them to sign an IOU of one hundred taels, they can't afford to pay it back, you can ask for as much as you want, don't push it too hard." The main reason for writing this IOU is to deter them, and they think you are easy to bully. ”

Song Yaoyao didn't expect him to be so thoughtful, and in addition to gratitude, there was a trace of pity in his heart.

It's a pity that I can't meet when I'm not married.

Song Yaoyao shook his head, put aside these nonsense thoughts, and thanked him in a proper manner.

Xue Xingzhou saw that she was so polite, he didn't dare or couldn't bear to look at her anymore, and said in a muffled voice: "I'll let people call you a car, Brother Rong is injured and it's inconvenient to move around, you go and ask Old Man Sun for some plaster, the old man is very slamming the door, don't be polite to him, ask for that kind of black plaster, it has the best effect on bruises." ”

Song Yaoyao's nose was pantothenic, and he quickly lowered his head, for fear that Xue Xingzhou would see something wrong, and said, "I know." ”

Xue Xingzhou continued: "I still have official business, I can't send you, you be careful on the road, if there is anything, you must come to the county government to find me." ”

Song Yaoyao also responded in a low voice.

The two were speechless for a while.

Song Yaoyao just looked down at the tips of her shoes, holding back her tears so that her tears would not run out.

Xue Xingzhou stared at the top of Song Yaoyao's head, and said in a dumb voice for a long time: "My aunt, I ......"

Song Yaoyao's body stiffened, and his heart suddenly rose, a little nervous, a little flustered, and a little ...... Expect.

Xue Xingzhou paused for a long time and said, "I'll go see Uncle Song in two days, if Old Man Sun dares to bully you, you tell me, I'll help you get angry." ”

Song Yaoyao raised his head, smiled at Xue Xingzhou, and said, "Doctor Sun treats me very well. ”

laughed at herself in her heart, didn't she already know Xue Xingzhou's choice, what else was there to look forward to.

It's just that her heart can't help but sour and swollen, and she is uncomfortable.

Xue Xingzhou had to say something, the official came in and said, the carriage had already been called.

Xue Xingzhou helped Song Rong into the car, and the Song brothers and sisters said goodbye and went back to Old Man Sun's bamboo house.

On the carriage, Song Rong lay on the mat on his side and said to Song Yaoyao: "Little sister, I think Xue Zhutou is really interesting to you, and the eldest brother is also a man, so he won't look away." ”

Song Yaoyao said lightly: "I know, so what? ”

"Xue Zhutou is honest and enthusiastic, and he is a talent, he is by no means comparable to a bastard like Li Dachang, little sister, why are you so cold and alienated from others."

Song Yaoyao was not aggrieved in her heart, Xue Xingzhou's appearance and character, not to mention that in ancient times and in modern times, it was also the type that girls liked the most.

Besides, he treats Song Yaoyao really well, and he naturally doesn't feel anything at all, but Xue Xingzhou can't pass that hurdle, what can she do.

"Brother, you don't care about this."

Song Rong was afraid that his sister would miss a good match, but he was a man in the end, and some things were not easy to say, so he could only let go of this stubble first, thinking about going back to talk to his mother and letting his mother persuade her.

The carriage arrived at the bamboo house, just in case, Song Yaoyao still bothered Dr. Sun to show Song Rong.

Dr. Sun said that the catchers are skillful in their hands, a little skin trauma, and it will be good to rest for a few days.

Song Rong took the medicine and was about to go home, and said, "Doctor Sun is not spacious here, so I won't bother here, while it's still early, I'll go back, and save my mother and your sister-in-law from worrying." ”

Song Yaoyao didn't force him to stay, helped him into the carriage, Song Rong secretly explained: "In addition to taking care of your father, you also take good care of Dr. Sun here, although people didn't tell us about the medical expenses, but you can find a suitable time to inquire, you can't let people treat us in vain." ”

Song Yaoyao nodded to indicate that he understood.
