in court.

Mu Shi saw Zhuang Lian, he had already guessed what was going to happen in his heart, and remembered that Aunt Zhang had said before that the two sisters had secretly seen his yard.

He knelt on the ground with his wife and children.

The county commander nodded with satisfaction, yes, he is an honest person, so it's right, he can have less pain in his flesh and skin.

He cleared his throat and asked, "Who's in the hall?" ”

"Mu Shi of Grass People Poplar Village, this is Zhou Shan, the wife of the grass people, and his son Mu Liang, I don't know why they were arrested, please be enlightened."

After the master took the note, he said, "Someone sued you for murder for money." ”

Mu Shi's eyebrows were filled with anxiety, and he said: "My lord, the grass people are definitely a good person, they have never done anything that hurts heaven and reason, how can they make money and kill themselves?!" ”

"Zhuang Lian, Zeng Da, tell me what's going on." The prefectural commander leaned back in his chair and knocked on the waking wood and said.

Zeng Da glanced at the kneeling man next to him, and didn't dare to say a word.

Zhuang Lian glanced at her, this man was really useless, she crossed her hands on her hips and said, "My lord, it's them, they used mushrooms as good things, which made those people in the west of the town die." ”

After speaking, he quickly lowered his head.

She gritted her teeth tightly, for fear that she would be seen through her mind.

Unexpectedly, she killed four or five lives just by doing business.

Many people can also prove that Zhou Shan is the one who sells 'crispy and soft'.

Someone began to scold: "His grandmother's actually used this thing to harm people, this thing will kill people...... Uh, then why didn't I die? ”

scolded happily before he reacted.

Mu Liang's small body straightened up and said, "My lord, we haven't sold crispy soft for a long time, if we eat our soft pasty, it should have an attack on the same day, why did it drag on to today?" ”

The master touched his beard and nodded.

The little boy was quite smart, and he said, "I bought these two people's mushrooms and died of poisoning." ”

Mu Liang smiled and asked, "Then may I ask my lord, since it is the matter of these two, why do you want to arrest us?" ”

The master is already full of affection for the little boy in front of him, he is intelligent, reasonable, and his words will not be radical, step by step, not bad.

He stood up and said, "They are accusing you, and you have commanded them." ”

Zhou Shan shook her head, she hurriedly said.

"My lord, our family is at odds with theirs, and we quarrel almost once we meet in the village, how can we command it?"

"Fart, that's you." Zhuang Lian was anxious, and the words came out bald without thinking about it, "At that time, I saw that your yard was full of mushrooms, so I went to sell them!" ”

Mu Shi pointed to people and said, "Okay, it turns out that you were lying on our door that day and broke the door of our house." ”

"Something broke, I just pushed the door open......"

Zeng Da slapped the woman violently.

Zhuang Lian suddenly came back to her senses, cold sweat broke out on her back, what she said just now, she was short of breath, and quickly lowered her head.

The master asked step by step: "Push the door open, and after that, do you see it above?!" ”

Zhuang Lian's whole body trembled, she didn't dare to look directly at the master's gaze, she desperately lowered her head, and took a breath when she said a word.

"Grass people... The grass people saw that the yard was very clean......"

The master's eyes were cold, and he said angrily: "Nonsense, disturbing the court, people ...... coming"

"Suspend the court, come here, put these people in prison, and let them be tried again!" The county commander directly interrupted the master's words, and his gaze withdrew from the crowd and left quickly.

The master's face was full of disbelief, but he could only pick up his things and leave.

In prison.

Zhou Shan's eyes were red and said: "We have never done anything hurtful, why have you framed us again and again!" ”

I thought that a good day for the whole family was coming, but ......

She lay on her stomach in the man's arms and wept bitterly.

Zeng Da lowered his head in shame, thinking of the few lives he carried, his steps became heavy, leaning against the corner, quietly pondering.

Zhuang Lian was extremely haggard, and anger burned in her eyes.

"If it weren't for you, how could I be in prison? It's all your fault, whoever is stingy like you, has a way to get rich, doesn't tell us, it's all your ......"

She kept repeating the words 'it's all you', as if she was brainwashing herself.

Zhou Shan trembled with anger.

"What kind of truth are you, are you willing to tell it, it's our business, Zhuang Lian, why are you so unreasonable!"

Mu Shi looked at his angry wife and children, he took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.

He led the two people to the other side and said, "Ah Shan, Liang'er, don't worry, we didn't poison you, we don't have to be afraid." ”

"I'm just worried about ......" Zhou Shan wanted to say crispy, but immediately closed her mouth tightly and exchanged glances with the two of them.

They don't know about Crispy yet, and if they say it, what if they catch Crispy in, the environment here.

How can you stand it?

Zhuang Lian also calmed down, and seeing that the three people not far away were discussing something, she walked up to the man, sat on the ground and said.

"Boss, you say, are they discussing how to get out?"

"I don't know." Zeng Da shook his head, he had straw in his mouth, and he didn't look interested.

At this time.

The master had just quarreled with the county magistrate, and he came out of the prefectural order's house and happened to see someone coming to find the prefectural magistrate.

He looked the person in front of him up and down.

"Village Chief Liu?"

"I didn't expect the master to remember the grass people." Liu Jianzu smiled and clenched his fists, he saw that his master's face was not very good, and he didn't say anything, so he went in.

The master looked at the closed door and thought for a moment.

He suddenly remembered, weren't those people from Poplar Village? Liu Jianzu seems to be Zhuang Lian's brother-in-law......

Squeak –

When the county magistrate saw someone coming, he stood up and said, "Village Chief Liu, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”

"The grass people have seen the county magistrate." Liu Jianzu knelt on the ground, saluted, got up and looked around, and after waiting for the people around him to leave, he said with a smile, "I'm sorry to disturb the county commander." ”

The county commander raised his hand and said, "Village Chief Liu is here, is there something wrong?" ”

Liu Jianzu smiled, took out a bag of silver from his arms, and said, "My lord, that Zhuang Lian is my mother-in-law's sister......"

"Ahem, it's also very difficult for this official to do, there is not enough food in the yamen, and the brothers refuse to do anything." The county commander's eyes showed joy, but he was still sad.

Liu Jianzu scolded secretly in his heart, and said with a smile on his face: "We will give you twice as much as this year in Yangshu Village,"

The prefectural magistrate picked up the purse and put it on the mat.

He said with satisfaction: "Village Chief Liu, for the sake of the official's brother, I have no choice but to be with you, you go back and wait for news." ”

Liu Jianzu nodded with a smile, respectfully stepped forward and said a few words in the man's ear before leaving with a smile.

The county commander's eyes narrowed slightly, and he muttered: "This Mu family, so rich? ”

A hint of calculation flashed in his eyes, and then, he beckoned to the people outside, and the county order said: "There is still a little girl in the Mu family who has not been arrested, you should go and find it, you can't let one go!" ”
