Chapter 50: Losing money
The fat man was scared now, and he forcibly calmed himself.
"Big ...... My lord, Liu Sheng's household registration was changed after he died...... In other words, he was still a slave when he died......"
"Are you so obsessed with Liu Sheng's household registration issue, do you admit that you are the mastermind who killed Liu Sheng?" Jiang Mian suddenly spoke.
The county magistrate also looked at the fat man.
"Jiang's! What nonsense are you talking about! I...... I watched Liu Sheng die, thinking that he had just been beaten by Gu Xiao and died, so I naturally thought that Gu Xiao beat him to death, thinking that Liu Sheng couldn't die in vain, so I came to support Liu Chunhua! That is, what happened to Liu Sheng's household registration after his death? I hate him for killing our Liu family, can't I teach him a lesson? ”
The fat man was a little incoherent at first, but later he actually convinced himself that as long as he was sure that he had stubbornly thought that "Gu Xiao" was the murderer before, he was very arrogant!
"My lord, now it seems that the Liu family framed Gu Xiao in a premeditated manner. Whether Liu Sheng was deliberately killed by them, or Liu Sheng himself offended someone and was killed, their Liu family wanted our Gu family to be the wronged leader! ”
"You don't know, in front of the Yamen, Liu Dajian came to my house with the corpse to make trouble, saying that he wanted us to pay 2,000 taels of silver, otherwise he would bet Gu Xiao to come to the Yamen, the county lord is fair and strict, of course we are not afraid to come to the Yamen, but they know that the murderer is not Gu Xiao, but they came to ask for money, or brought a group of fierce and abnormal people to ask for money, what is this not extortion and intimidation? The village chief and the patriarch can testify about this. ”
When the county magistrate began to hold the fat man accountable, the village chief and the Gu family chief who were in a sluggish state nodded stunned.
"My lord, the Liu family is too much of a bully! They came to my house early in the morning with sticks to make trouble, what was wrong with my man beating them out to protect the children? They deliberately killed the domestic servant, and even came to the yamen to wipe the servant's slavery, and they were very bad-hearted! ”
"Liu Dajian is making trouble in the village, Liu Chunhua is making trouble in the county, which has brought a lot of trouble to our family, and now people outside think that my man is ......" Jiang Mian cried twice at the right time.
"My children will go to school in the future, if their classmates know about it and think that their father has killed someone, how will they behave? What if it becomes a stain on the fame in the future? ”
Jiang Mian wiped two more tears.
The children behind her cried uncontrollably.
"The women think they want to apologize to us! A public apology! And you have to pay for money! ”
The county master has seen so many people, where can't he see Jiang Mian's tricks? The corner of his eye twitched. He looked at Dabao, this kid is well-organized, not stage frightened, and is a good seedling. If this event stops the future......
Jiang is right. Liu Sheng's death was ascertained by the official and indeed had nothing to do with Gu Xiao. ”
"Liu Dajian provoked the Gu family first, extorted and intimidated the Gu family later, had a bad temperament, fined 30 boards, and lost 5,000 yuan."
"Liu Chunhua slandered Gu Xiao for the crime of killing his head, and was sentenced to beheading, which will be executed after the autumn."
"For the reputational damage caused by the two to the Gu family, Ling signed a letter of repentance and paraded the streets for three days."
"The case of killing Liu Sheng, retrial at a later date, retirement!"
Jiang Mian is very satisfied with this treatment. Five thousand dollars, five taels of silver, quite a lot, enough for an ordinary family of five to chew for several months.
As for whether the principal of the Liu family can be involved, it must not work.
The county magistrate is fair, but he will not tear his face with the squire for the sake of their family.
She doesn't care what happens to Liu Sheng's case in the end, just don't pull them to the old Gu family.
Jiang Mian's family walked out of the yamen neatly, refreshed.
The village chief who followed out breathed a sigh of relief that there were no murderers in their village.
He smiled and patted Gu Yanning's shoulder, "Not bad, not bad, the daughter-in-law you married is good, and she is competitive enough." But don't be so impulsive in the future. ”
Speaking of this, the village chief sighed, the people in Changping Village are all Sven people, why is it so barbaric when they come to Gu Xiao.
The patriarch of the Gu family who came out with him also breathed a sigh of relief, and the Gu family did not produce a murderer.
But it was impossible for him to praise Jiang Mian, he was on crutches, and the beard on his chin trembled.
"Gu Xiao, you are too disagreeable, you are all fathers, why do you not know the importance of it? Today is your luck, tomorrow, will you have this good luck......"
"Okay, old man, it's time to have lunch. It's too late, and your wife is going to talk to you. The village chief grabbed the Gu family patriarch and pulled him in the direction of his ox cart.
"Jiang Damao, you let go of me, pull and pull, what do you look like......"
Jiang Mian watched the village chief and the patriarch walk away, smiled, and said to the cubs: "Let's go, let's go for lunch too, go to Manfu Building, his Sixi balls are very delicious." ”
Although it has been poured for most of the day, it is not a loss to make 5,000 dollars by using his mouth.
The windfall has to be spent!
When Sanbao heard what he was eating, his eyes suddenly lit up, "Sanbao still wants to eat his milk ice bowl!" ”
"Erbao wants to eat braised pork!"
"Four treasures, four treasures......" Four treasures tilted their heads, unable to think of what they wanted to eat.
Jiang Mian picked up Sibao with one hand, and the small meat dumplings felt very good, so she checked them.
"Is it okay for my mother to order an osmanthus cheese for Sibao?"
Sibao nodded, and the little flesh on his cheeks trembled.
Jiang Mian couldn't help but pinch, leaving a light red on Sibao's white and tender face.
The cub finally grew some meat, and lived up to her five meals a day.
"Dabao, what do you want to eat?"
"Mother, I want to eat fish, steamed sea bass."
"Okay, Dabao is very brave today, he protects his mother and father, and his mother will reward you with a sweet tooth."
"Every baby was great today! It's a good boy for your mother! ”
"Wangcai, you have worked hard today, you can order whatever you like, you don't need to save me money!"
Gu Yanning watched Jiang Mian praise everyone with a blank eye, and didn't praise him...... Although he also knows that he is at fault, his heart will still be very uncomfortable.
He went to the cowshed next to the yamen to pull out the big cow and walked sullenly behind Jiang Mian and the others.
"Hey, hey, wait, wait, Gu family lady, wait!"
Jiang Mian turned around and saw Liu Qi, who was panting and chasing after him.
"Little Seven? What's wrong? ”
"Lady of the Gu family, I didn't expect to see you again so soon, oh, the household registration you asked me to do yesterday was done for you."
Jiang Mian took it with a free hand, "It's really fast, but I haven't taken out your ginseng yet, so I'm in a hurry." ”
Liu Qi waved his hand, "It's okay, it's okay, it's not urgent." However, your cousin is good, when I got his household registration there, the county magistrate saw it and asked a few questions. ”
"Did the county lord see it? Are you so bold now? Go through the back door for me in front of the county magistrate? ”
"Poof, what are you doing to go through the back door, the more people on the household register, the happier the county lord is, after all, you can't escape when the time comes to collect taxes!"
The black household has lost the household registration of their county, and it is the people of their county, and the population is growing, and the county lord is too late to be happy.
Jiang Mian smiled when she heard Liu Qi's words, she glanced at Yu Changhuan and sighed. Forgot about the poll tax.
"Alright, I just heard you're going to lunch? Hurry up, don't starve the children, I should go back to duty. ”
"Good. Say goodbye to my brother. ”
"Goodbye, brother." The cubs said goodbye to Liu Qi one after another.
Liu Qi smiled and scratched his head, revealing a row of white teeth, this group of little cubs is quite cute.
But...... The cub of the Gu family's lady called him brother, so isn't he a junior?
Liu Qi shook his head depressedly.
