Half an hour later, Xiao Zhukuai and Changshun each carried two food boxes back to the yamen, and put several small pottery bowls on the table one by one.

Sun Yunniang took a few steps forward, picked up a pottery bowl and walked to the center of the public hall, "My lord, this is the meal I left in the cellar that day, please know it." ”

The county order was stunned for a moment, there was really some leftovers, and this Sun Yunniang had too many eyes, but she couldn't see the reason when she looked at it from a distance, so she had to drag her bulky body to the evidence table.

I saw that there were seven or eight small bowls of rice on the table, and the bowl body of each small bowl also wrote the date of the day in small letters, but the small letters were crooked... It looks like a child's words.

"Ahem, forgive me, my lord, the girl was born in a peasant family, she knows few words, and she hasn't practiced much."

Seeing that the county order's expression was a little distorted, Sun Yunniang had to explain awkwardly.

The county magistrate's white fat face was stunned and put on a gentle smile, "Hehe, it's okay, as long as you can see it clearly." ”

In an instant, he immediately lowered his face and shouted to the officials: "You, who will help the little lady inspect the dishes?" ”

Officials, you look at me, I look at you, it seems that they all hope that which wronged boss will take the initiative.

If this is really spoiled food, wouldn't it be like the two witnesses lying on the ground?

"I'm going to get the stuff too, so I'll try it!"

Seeing Xiao Yu striding forward, the officials breathed a sigh of relief.

The county commander nodded with satisfaction, pointed sideways at the group of officials and said, "A group of delicious and lazy rice buckets!" Look at Lin Dong, you have been here for ten years, it is better to be fishing fast for only one year! ”

It turned out that his name was Lin Dong, Sun Yunniang's eyes moved, and she secretly wrote it down.

In fact, she just wanted to come to test the dishes herself, and she was afraid that others would criticize her for being suspicious of doing tricks, but this overnight dish, coupled with false accusations, who is willing to try the dishes at the risk of running out of her stomach.

Now that this Lin Dong has helped her out of the siege again, the gratitude in her heart suddenly came up.

It is rare to be able to assert one's goodness and justice in such an environment.

"Lin Zhu, you don't have to test all these dishes, these people only used spicy chicken that day, you can try this bowl."

Sun Yunniang picked out the small bowl with spicy chicken and handed over the chopsticks by the way.

As soon as Lin Dong looked up, he saw those clear eyes, with trust and openness, the corners of his mouth curved, and he smiled gratefully at him, and his heart skipped a beat in an instant.

So he didn't believe that such pure eyes could do such a thing that lost his conscience.

As soon as he took the bowl and chopsticks, he took a piece of chicken and put it in his mouth, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes in an instant.

Although the chicken is a little cold, the taste is not woody, and the chewing is very tough, and because it has been left overnight, the soup in the spicy chicken has already condensed into something like pork skin jelly, but it is much more delicious and tender than pork skin jelly.

This little lady is not only beautiful, but also has such exquisite cooking skills......

Suddenly, the ghost envoy almost took another piece of meat and stuffed it into his mouth, and now, the county commander and the official all looked at him, is it so delicious?

Lin Dong touched the back of his head embarrassedly, and explained embarrassedly: "I'm worried that I'm eating too little, and the test is not accurate." ”

Before the chicken in his mouth could be swallowed, he picked up a bowl of white rice next to him and took a bite, and sure enough, this dish was even more delicious...

Everyone looked at him again, they were addicted to eating, and they also served rice.

Lin Dong had to chew a few times and swallow it quickly, meowed a glance at Sun Yunniang, and saw that she was turning her face sideways, her lips were pursed, as if she was deliberately enduring something, and when she looked closely, her eyes were full of smiles.

He finally blushed, "I thought, they must have eaten that rice, so it's better to test it together, hehe." ”

Sun Yunniang took a deep breath, finally held back her smile, and agreed: "Well, Lin Zhuai is reasonable, is it uncomfortable to eat it?" ”

"No problems, no smell." If there is any problem, it is that the portion is too small to be eaten openly, Lin Dong silently added in his heart.

The county commander frowned, and finally snapped into shock, "Those few people in the hall!" What else to say! ”

The four plaintiffs have actually panicked for a long time, they were doing it alone, and now they have come up with physical evidence, but how can they easily admit their guilt, and they have to do things when they take people's money, besides, if they really admit their guilt, what else can they get.

Thinking of this, one of the women stood up stubbornly, "Your Excellency, you can't think that we are making false accusations, my husband and son are still so prostrated that they can't speak, but the two scholars at the next table are not so serious!" It means that the younger ones are stronger, and the damage from eating spoiled food is not so obvious. ”

"So how are you going! Could it be that I will invite a group of old and young women and children to test the dishes for you?! The prefectural order became more and more impatient.

"My lord! There is no need to be so troublesome, my family has invited the grandmother of the Jingzhong Shangshi Bureau, and she has now arrived, and she can immediately verify it and make them die. ”

Sun Yunniang turned around and saw that an old woman in her fifties came in behind Changshun at some point, and she was waiting for the dispatch with her head down.

At this time, the county magistrate didn't dare to reproach him for interfering, and hurriedly invited Mama.

The grandmother walked to the table where the physical evidence was kept, lowered her head, took out a curtain-like thing from her sleeve, untied the knot, and spread it on the table, but instead of a pen, a few pairs of large and small chopsticks and silver needles were placed.

She first picked out a small pair of silver chopsticks, picked up a bowl of vegetables on the table at random, and flipped it with chopsticks while looking into the bowl, not even letting go of a green onion.

After turning over the dishes, I put the bowl under my nose and sniffed it carefully, and finally took out a few silver needles from the cloth roll and tried them one by one.

Finally, he walked to the center of the public hall and bowed to the hall, "My lord, it has been verified that there is no problem with the food." ”

"You have nothing to say now!" The county commander finally took a long breath, and this group of Diao people really delayed him for a long time.

But the woman looked like a dog jumping off the wall in a hurry, and shouted angrily at Sun Yunniang: "Okay, you, you vicious woman! If my father-in-law's son is harmed like this, he can get away with it, is there any heavenly reason!!

No one believed the witnesses lying on the ground on the dying ground, and those meals were just dead things, so how could they not be faked!

What else is the food bureau, how can you invite a little girl in the palace? I think it's a liar from outside! The county magistrate Mingjian! Don't misjudge the unjust case, it's snowing in June! Woooooooo ”

Seeing that the woman was crying more and more excited, the other three witnesses also hummed and chirped in agreement, and said that they had been wronged.

It's a pity that these people don't go to the garden to sing, it's so shameless, Sun Yunniang's brows are tightly twisted.

This time, before the county order was issued, she gave Changshun a look, and then said to the hall in an instant: "My lord, in order to convince such a shameless person, we still have a witness to announce." ”

After receiving the signal from the county order, after a while, the chief brought in two men by the way.

The woman who was still shouting just now was taken aback in an instant, and lowered her head in a panic, and the father and son lying on the ground didn't even hum, but simply pretended to be dead.

"Who in the hall will report his name!"

When the two men heard this, they hurriedly saluted the county order, and the older one took the lead in stepping forward and explained: "The villain is the shopkeeper of the West Street Pharmacy in Qingyan Town, and the guy next to him is the guy from the South Street Pharmacy. ”

Another young man also nodded and said, "Yes, my lord, at the end of the day, a woman came to my store and said that she bought some senna for constipation, according to the law of Nanchu, the purchase of such laxatives must be recorded in the medical book, which is well documented." ”

Immediately, the older man pointed to Changshun and said, "I heard this little brother say that the few people who bought laxatives today may have something to do with a case in the Yamen, so we naturally have to cooperate with the adults to try the case." ”

"Woman? Father and son? The county commander's eyes lit up, aren't there three people in that hall, and suddenly I feel that my head is still quite open, and it is not inappropriate to be a county official.

Even let the two testify.

Before anyone stepped forward, the woman had already shrunk into the corner like chaff, and the father and son lying on the ground simply covered their faces with their hands.

That's what it means to cover up Mizhang, Sun Yunniang sneered.

"Great, sir, sir, spare! My lord spared his life, we didn't mean it, yes, those two scholars made us do it! Yes, that's them! The woman suddenly jumped up, pointed at the stunned scholar on the side, and said angrily, "We are forced to be helpless!" ”

This scholar is much less timid than the previous one, and his mouth is also clumsy, and he can only stammering and shouting about wrongs.

For a while, the dog ate the dog, so it was not lively.

I only heard those people quarrel a few more words and said that they leaked their mouths, and they explained all the ins and outs.

It turned out that after those people made a plan to frame them, the father and son went to the pharmacy to buy some rhubarb, maybe the dosage was not grasped well, and it was only a slight diarrhea after taking it, and they wanted to buy some more, and they were worried that they would be recognized after buying it many times.

So the second time I was quite cautious, not only changed the pharmacy, changed my own lady to buy, but also changed a laxative and bought senna.

Who knew that after taking these two drugs one after another, they almost lost half their lives, which can be regarded as a report from the world.

It's a little cautious, but in the end he still doesn't admit himself.

The corners of Sun Yunniang's mouth twitched, in fact, she smelled the familiar smell of medicine on the father and son yesterday, and she inadvertently recalled it when she rested at the inn today.

That smell of medicine, she had smelled it in her mother's hospital in her previous life.

I only know that the doctors call it senna, and many patients who have not been ventilated after the operation, the doctor will prescribe a small amount of water for them to drink, which has a laxative effect, but once the amount is not well controlled, it will have diarrhea.
