In the case of Sanniang, the county reported to the prefect, and the prefect of Liang and the inn were old friends, and I heard that it was Ling Chaofeng's wife who killed him by mistake, so he personally went to Baisha County to handle the case. The new magistrate was personally promoted by the Liang prefect, and it was naturally easy for them to discuss with each other.

interrogated the people involved, and learned that the inn had been running around for a few days ago, looking for someone to use a nurse for this three mothers. Then there were the onlookers at the pier at that time, and everyone said that it was the woman who sneaked to the river with the child in her arms, and Xiaowan drove to the river and begged her to return the child.

Later, Xiaowan did have the intention to snatch back the child, but she did not deliberately push Sanniang into the river.

On that day, the wind and water were urgent, if the wind and waves were calm on weekdays, Sanniang might not die even if she fell into the water. She chose to steal the child on that day, as if she had chosen her own life at the same time.

Liang Zhifu said: "The laws and regulations of Daqi follow the ancient law, and there is a saying that the forgiveness of sins and the atonement of gold are all said to be the mistakes of the beloved, and the unfortunate ones are trapped. ”

In this way, Xiaowan should have been sentenced to five years in prison, but now she was sentenced to ransom, Uncle Biao and Aunt Zhang came to the yamen with one hundred taels of gold and ransomed their children.

When Xiao Wan walked out of the yamen, he was pierced by the sunlight outside, and the prison was really a place where he did not see the light of day, and in just a few days, he could not adapt to the outside world.

They were about to get into the carriage when they heard the sound of horses' hooves coming from a distance, and Xiao Wan immediately recognized that it was her husband's movement, and sure enough, she saw Ling Chaofeng riding a horse and walking down the street.

"Xianggong ......," Xiaowan shouted loudly.

Ling Chaofeng heard his wife's voice, immediately tightened the reins and turned around, and sure enough, he saw a family standing at the entrance of the yamen.

"Xianggong." Xiao Wan galloped over, Ling Chaofeng jumped off the horse, he didn't know what was going on, he just hugged his wife in his arms.

Ling Chaofeng smelled a strange aura on Xiao Wan's body, he frowned, realizing something, and Xiao Wan also pushed him away violently, with tears on his face and said, "Xianggong, I, I stink too much......"

Ling Chaofeng hugged her: "It's nothing." Late, what's wrong? ”

There were more and more onlookers on the side, and Aunt Zhang stepped forward and said, "I've been wronged at night, let's go home first, and then talk slowly when we go home." ”

In the inn, Pei'er stood in front of the door and looked, he knew that his father should also arrive home today, but he didn't expect it to be so coincidental, they met and came back together.

As soon as Xiaowan got out of the carriage, she held her son in her arms, and Pei'er whimpered and said, "Mother, I'm so good, I take care of my younger brothers and sisters every day, and I don't have time to read and write." ”

Xiaowan was amused by her son to cry and laugh, Ling Chaofeng stepped forward to comfort him, hugged his son, only to see Daqing come out with a brazier and tell Xiaowan to cross the brazier to go to bad luck.

After that, he bathed and changed his clothes, threw his clothes into the brazier and burned them, and returned to his family refreshed.

Su Su and Aunt Zhang came downstairs with Fei'er and Ji'er in their arms, and the two little dolls seemed to recognize their mother's parents, and they cried when they saw Xiaowan, and they wanted her to hold them in their arms to live in peace.

It's just that Xiaowan has been in the prison for a few days, although she has not been embarrassed or abused, but the prison is a prison after all, and her milk now is not as abundant as before the accident.

She gulped down the fish soup and chicken soup, stuffed the greasy pig's trotters into her stomach in three or two bites, and ate desperately, hoping to return to her previous appearance and feed her children.

Getting into such a lawsuit, no one could have imagined it, Ling Chaofeng also thought that Sanniang was a weak woman and would not bring any trouble to the inn, so he went out with confidence.

Unexpectedly, but he was careless, how could a mother who lost her child be like a normal person who is fine.

Uncle Biao called Ling Chaofeng to the back, he smoked a cigarette and said: "I saw everything that day, but now that I think about it, I am still frightened, I am still like this, I will not be good at night, not to mention that I have been in prison for a few days." Don't look at her immediately having the spirit to take care of the child, that's the instinct of being a mother, Chaofeng, you have to care more about the evening, ask her if she has any difficulties in her heart that she can't figure out. ”

Ling Chaofeng said yes again and again, and asked Uncle Biao about the details of the day, and the more he listened, the more he felt sorry for his wife, but Xiaowan was so brave and calm, and she was also impressed, and she was a mother's woman, and she was really fearless for the sake of her children.

In the bedroom on the third floor, Xiaowan put the two children to sleep, and Pei'er followed her inseparably, whispering that he hadn't done his homework in the past few days, and he couldn't finish the homework that his father had assigned when he went out.

Because Pei'er had been unable to complete the homework left by Ling Chaofeng when he went out several times before, this time the father and son had decided that if they couldn't finish it, they would come back with a butt board.

Xiaowan hugged the fleshy heart and liver baby, touched his little buttocks, and said gently: "My mother will come to accompany you to do your homework in a while, let's make up for it." ”

Ling Chaofeng watched in front of the door and quietly retreated, now let Xiaowan and the children be together first, and when the children are asleep, he will accompany Xiaowan.

In this way, Xiaowan has never left her three children all day, and she has always known that Pei'er is very envious of her younger brothers and sisters who can breastfeed, but he knows that he is a big child, so he can't do this.

I took care of the two milk dolls before, and I was too busy to take care of myself at the beginning, and the time to give Pei'er was limited, but Xiaowan asked Aunt Zhang to bring the food today, she ate it herself, fed her son a bite, and gave a little guy a happy, simple meal, and ate her eyebrows.

Finally, it was night, Pei'er fell asleep beside Xiaowan, Ji'er and Fei'er didn't stop crying today, the house was quiet, Ling Chaofeng came back from washing, and quietly walked to the bedside, Xiaowan whispered: "Take Pei'er over, be careful." ”

"If you wake up, I'll see him come over in a while, you go to sleep first, don't wait for me." Ling Chaofeng agreed softly, carefully picked up his son, Pei'er writhed a few times uneasily, and fell asleep on her father's shoulder.

Aunt Zhang said that the prison was cold and damp, and when she took a bath today, she added a lot of ginger juice to the water, which made her sweat profusely.

The house is fragrant, with the milky fragrance of the little doll, and the incense of the gauze tent clothes, sweet and peaceful, which makes people live a good life.

However, Xiaowan could not forget the unpleasant smell in the prison, nor the moans and wails of the other prisoners, nor could she forget the ...... Sanniang's body was washed far away in the Baisha River.

Tears slipped down the corners of her eyes, Xiaowan's heart was panicked, she killed someone.

The person who was in a daze didn't even notice that Xianggong had returned to his side, in the dim light, Ling Chaofeng saw the tears on Xiao Wan's cheeks, he leaned over and kissed her eyes, Xiao Wan trembled, looked at her husband blankly, Ling Chaofeng bullied down, followed the ear-hanging neck, and kissed down.

A sudden cloud and rain, a long-lost skin blind date after pregnancy, Xiaowan completely integrated her consciousness into lust, and her head was blank for a moment, as if she could start everything over again.

She fell softly in her husband's arms, felt his heartbeat and the warmth on his body, and said sincerely: "Xianggong's body is warm, so comfortable." ”

Ling Chaofeng caressed her back and said gently, "Evening, everything has passed." ”

Xiaowan hummed, and immediately sobbed softly, for fear of waking up the children and not daring to cry loudly, but in the end, in the arms, she cried happily.

The next morning, as if it was the last thunderstorm of the year, it poured down with all the strength and crackled on the ground, making it difficult to move an inch.

But the people from the yamen came wearing a straw hat and a coat, standing in front of the door wet, and said kindly: "I can't find out Sanniang's origin, what clues do you have?" However, what the county master means is that when her family comes, it will be too late, if you are willing, can you handle the affairs of her after death, it will also be regarded as a merit. ”

Ling Chaofeng didn't discuss with Xiaowan, so he agreed, and after the rain stopped in the afternoon, he and Uncle Biao went to the yamen to receive Sanniang.

The next morning, I did the aftermath for her, and invited a few masters in the temple to overdue, and after the cremation, the ashes were to be scattered into the Baisha River.

When they drove the carriage past their inn again, they saw Xiaowan wearing plain clothes and standing in front of the door with Pei'er.

Ling Chaofeng didn't ask, he stopped and picked up his wife directly, Pei'er also climbed into the car, and the family went to the river.

The people on the dock, every year, see a few drowning people, after a long time, they have long been numb, but they are not taboo about these things, by Ling Chaofeng they paid tribute to Sanniang on the shore, and they also came over one after another, and put on a stick of incense.

Xiaowan scattered the paper money into the river, and Pei'er handed it to her one by one on the side, and the white flowers on the river were gloomy and desolate.

"Pei'er." Ling Chaofeng called his son behind him and asked him to go to Daqing to play, and after his son left, he came to Xiaowan's side and sat side by side with her on the shore.

"Xianggong ......," Xiaowan said, "If I hadn't said those words to Su Su and Sanniang heard them, if I had promised to let her feed the child together, she wouldn't have died." ”

"Late?"

"But, I have no ill intentions, I don't want to hurt her at all, I don't want to let others touch my own child, can't I?" Xiaowan said with tears in her eyes, "Why did she snatch my child." ”
