Chapter 69: Framed
In the spring, a few thieves who stole chickens and dogs were caught, and neighbors and relatives were inevitably affected, and they took the opportunity to ask for bail, and several people in the torture room, each of whom had a small income. Qian Xiangui finally understood that good people could also find a way to make them suffer and make some blood. Summer is coming, the wheat is ripe, most of the laborers go to work part-time jobs to earn money to make a living, Shanyang finally settled down, the people in the torture room have nothing to do for a while, and Qian Xiangui's heart is fluttering - the head catcher actually cracked an old case and caught a habitual thief, but this habitual thief's family, but there is no money, and there is no stolen goods, and the thief does not gamble and has no other problems, and there is no reason to spend all the money, but the county master tried it twice, and the punishment was moved, and there was no gain. All the people in the yamen guessed that this habitual thief had hidden the stolen goods, and searched the homes of his relatives, but found nothing. The time soon came to the end of July, and Liu Quanhan was a little hesitant, suspecting that the head catcher had made a mistake, and those old cases were not done by this thief. The last time he used the big punishment, if the thief didn't recruit him, he would give up.
The head catcher inquired that the thief loved his youngest son very much, Liu Quanhan took the nine-year-old child to the court, let the thief watch, and burned the red iron, the old thief really softened, admitted those cases, but said that the stolen goods were spent, Liu Quanhan did not believe it, and continued to interrogate, and the thief honestly confessed that in the winter of last year, it was transferred to the east of the county.
At the end of the seventh month of the lunar calendar, the weather is not so hot and scorching, the color of the rice field begins to turn yellow, this year the wind and rain are smooth, the west of Shanwo Village, a bumper harvest scene, the whole village is staring at the ground, only waiting for ten days, then open the sickle harvest.
No one is not grateful to the Qian family, Qian Xiancheng has earned enough face, and every day when he goes out and enters the door, his face is filled with an irrepressible smile.
At noon on this day, a few errand officers came to the village to look for Wang Qi, and the red ticket flashed and reported the name of the person to be arrested, which frightened the Wang family to turn pale.
"Lao Cheng, it is absolutely impossible for Qian Xiancheng to harbor stolen goods, his family's life, but we are watching it go by day by day." Wang Qi patted his chest and promised.
"Brother Wang, this is not up to you and me, whether Qian Xiancheng is innocent or the owner of the nest, it is up to the county master to conclude that my brother must take people away on this trip."
When Wang Qi heard this, he knew that it was useless to talk more, so he had no choice but to take the people to the west of the village.
In front of Qian's house, there was a large crowd of people watching, and some people secretly muttered in their hearts: I didn't expect this Qian Xiancheng to make a fortune like this.
There are also people who say that they don't believe that Qian Xiancheng will break the law, although they don't know why the servants came to arrest people.
The official searched inside and outside the house, especially in the backyard, and asked Wang Qi to take people and completely open it, but found nothing. In the end, the leader Lao Cheng gave Qian Xiancheng and said: "Although Wang Lizheng is trying his best to guarantee your innocence, this matter is not for brothers to decide, you should go along." ”
Qian Xiancheng was so frightened that his face was pale, and he was unsteady when he walked, and he was pushed by the four officials and went to the county seat.
Webster fainted to the ground, and Wang Chen's helped him into the house.
Wen Jin went up the mountain, and only returned home after lunch, and when he heard this, he was anxious.
"Wen Jin, don't be too anxious, your Uncle Wang has already gone to the county government to help inquire." Wang Chen comforted, "Your uncle is on business in the Yamen, and he won't help him." ”
"Aunt Wang, my uncle is not a good person." Wen Jin thought to herself, maybe it was the uncle's ghost, wasn't he in the torture room?
Wang Chen seemed to guess Wen Jin's thoughts, and retorted: "If your second uncle commits a crime, your uncle will also have to eat and hang up, don't worry, at this time, he will definitely not stand idly by." ”
"If Uncle Wang finds my uncle first, maybe it will be a bad thing."
Aunt Wang was stunned, remembered what the man said to her father-in-law, and changed her words: "Your Uncle Wang and Uncle Wang went to the county seat together, they still know other people, and they won't rely on your uncle." ”
"I want to go to the county seat too." Wen Jin is still a child in the eyes of others, and Wei Shi is still lying on the kang and can't get up, so she doesn't dare to leave like this, so she can only discuss with adults first.
"Wen Jin, you better wait for the uncle and them to send back the message, who can you find?"
Wen Jin also made a difficulty.
Wei Shi lay on the kang and cried silently, he couldn't eat lunch, and when he saw Wen Jin, he was just crying, Wen Jin had no choice but to comfort him gently: "Second aunt, someone must be making trouble, the thief is from the west of the county, how can you know the second uncle?" He also said that the stolen goods were hidden in the seedling bed, which can only be told by people who have been to the house. The second uncle never brought outsiders here. ”
"But the thief is determined, how can your second uncle argue clearly?"
"Second aunt, I want to go and see, go to court with the second uncle, and defend him."
"How do you do that? You're still young. ”
"Second aunt, you have to believe me."
Webster couldn't stop crying, where did she dare to let her nephew go to danger?
Suddenly, there was a gong sound of "Bang Bang" outside, mixed with the chaotic shouts of the crowd: "Report ——, Qian Xiucai is known as Wen Jin, and the college will take the high school exam!" ”
Shawo Village has not produced a talent for decades, and when they heard the shouting, the villagers ran out in surprise.
What is the Qian family called? Fortune and misfortune are connected, and people are stunned.
Wen Jin walked to the door in a daze and saw a group of people walking over with Qian Wenhan in their arms.
Wang Chen helped the pale Webster, whose eyes were like rotten peaches, to the door, and they were shocked to stuff eggs into their mouths, and they couldn't believe what they saw.
Wen Jin immediately made a decision and took out a bunch of money to Wei Ronghe next door: "Uncle, help my second aunt receive the newspaper at home, this is a reward, my brother and I will go to the city immediately to see the county lord." ”
Xiucai saw that the official did not kneel, and Wei Ronghe also knew this, so he urged: "Don't worry about leaving it to the uncle, you two go quickly." ”
Wen Han was still confused, so he was dragged by Wen Jin and got on the donkey cart, and the newspapers were inexplicable, but the villagers enthusiastically poured into the courtyard of the Qian family.
On the way, Wen Han listened to Wen Jin's words, and was stunned for a few minutes before he woke up: "Is the uncle a ghost?" "I actually want to be with Wen Jin.
I don't know where to go a fork in the road, I didn't catch up with Qian Xiancheng and them all the way, when they arrived at the county seat, it was already dark, the two found an inn in the county Yaqian Street, paid the money and entrusted the donkey cart first, Wen Han borrowed pen, ink, paper and inkstone, wrote a simple defense, and Wen Jin hurriedly went to the corner gate of the county government to hand over the post, asking to see the county master. Menzi accepted the benefit fee given by Wen Jin, and only then did he kindly tell them: "The master has rested, and there are no outsiders, you two will come tomorrow morning." Wen Jin and Wen Han were stunned for a moment: "Early tomorrow morning, isn't the master going to ascend to the court?" When will we come? ”
