Song Shu couldn't hold back so she didn't laugh.

But the onlookers outside saw that Wen Lao Niang fell on her back, and they all leaned back and laughed.

The county magistrate also endured it, so there was no situation, and he was busy knocking on the shocking wood.

"Okay, all quiet!" The county magistrate cleared his throat: "Since you said that you saw it, then you might as well tell me what you have found, mother-in-law, if you are like this again, then the official will punish you for the crime of disturbing the court!" ”

Hearing what the county magistrate said, Wen Lao Niang didn't dare to make any more trouble.

The woodcutter began to explain.

"When I went up the mountain that day, I saw this little lady running in a hurry, I thought I had encountered a snake and wanted to help, but I saw two men following behind the little lady, and said that I wanted to insult the little lady."

Then, the woodcutter looked at Pei Xuan: "If it weren't for the little lady's father-in-law coming in time, I'm afraid that the little lady would be bullied by them, and what else did the two say, anyway, no one else believed in this little lady, and no one would help her if she was bullied." ”

By now everyone is clear.

It was not Song Shu and Pei Xuan who committed the crime, these two were at best self-defense and harmful to people's hearts, but Wen Lao Niang's son and Cui Duo.

It's a shame that those two are still scholars, and if this matter gets out, they won't have to go to the exams in the future.

"You, you are talking nonsense, my son will not be like this, he is all seduced by this!"

Wen Lao Niang saw that the general trend had gone, and she hated it very much.

Now that there is suddenly an eyewitness, it is all her son's fault, if it is only in private, it is fine, but now that it is in court, her son will inevitably be inquired by the county government.

In this way, the road to official career is broken.

No, it can't be like this! Her son is a person who wants to be an official, how can his future be ruined by Song Shu's cheap skin! Absolutely not!

Wen Lao Niang seemed to have made up her mind, she looked at Song Shu fiercely and gritted her teeth.

"You, I must let you die a good death!"

Song Shu also sensed the danger, but fortunately, there was Pei Xuan in front of her, hiding behind Pei Xuan, with a full sense of security.

"Someone! Hold this woman down for me! ”

The county magistrate felt offended, and he was unhappy at the moment, and he didn't say anything about it in the middle of the night, and he dared to make such a fuss, did he really think that he, the county magistrate, was eating dry rice?

Wen Lao Niang was held down, but her mouth was still not clean.

"You are colluding and colluding! It's so bad that my son can't be an official! Even if my wife dies, I won't let you go! Song Shu, you are a, you will have retribution sooner or later! ”

Song Shu raised her eyebrows, stood behind Pei Xuan, and gave Wen Lao Niang an arrogant expression in a place that others couldn't see.

Wen Lao Niang was old after all, and she was so angry with Song Shu that she vomited a mouthful of blood.

Seeing this, the county magistrate wrinkled his eyebrows and looked disgusted.

"Hold this nameless mother-in-law for me, and Wen Tianyi, and bring it to the county office tomorrow! This official wants to go to the book, cutting off his road to the imperial examination! ”

With the decision of the county magistrate, Song Shu also breathed a sigh of relief.

I have to say that this adult is really good, and he is a good official who knows everything.

"Xianggong, it's not early, my mother is still waiting at home, let's go back first?"

Pei Xuan nodded, then shook his head again.

"I'll send you back."

Listening to what he meant, Song Shu knew that he had other things, so he didn't want to trouble Pei Xuan.

"Then I'm ...... myself"

"I'll send you."

Song Shu: "......"

Okay, since he said so, Song Shu no longer insisted, and the two of them came out together, if they couldn't go back together, I was afraid that the Yan family would mumble.

Along the way, neither of them spoke.

Song Shu always kept a distance of two steps from Pei Xuan, and Pei Xuan noticed that her steps were small and unconsciously slowed down.

The two walked side by side.

Song Shu was thinking a lot, just now in the court, Pei Xuan looked at what she said, "I believe you are a father", and Song Shu's heart was still trembling until now.

Trust him?

Indeed, if Fang Cai hadn't had him, he would definitely have been scratched by that old woman.

He even pleaded guilty to all the charges.

And it's not all.

Others may not have noticed, but Song Shu saw that when the woodcutter entered, he signaled to Pei Xuan, and Pei Xuan responded to the subtle movements.

So it can be expected that the two know each other.

But the woodcutter didn't lie, and he didn't wronged Wen Tianyi, a bastard.

Counting it up, Pei Xuan has helped himself again.

Song Shu thought in her heart, as if she owed more and more of this kindness, when would this be repaid.

"That ......" Song Shu said quietly, in the middle of the night, it was very clear.

"What's wrong?"

Song Shu raised her eyes, Pei Xuan's eyes were unusually bright in the night, she trembled suddenly, and hurriedly lowered her head.

"No, nothing, just thank you, if it weren't for you......"

"You and I are husband and wife."

Hearing this, Song Shu's fingertips trembled, and her steps were a little messy.

"Mother's side, I'll explain, but don't tell my mother what Wen Tianyi did, so as not to worry her."

Pei Xuan also meant this, since Song Shu spoke, he didn't say anything anymore.

A moment of silence ensued.

Yan waited outside the door, and when he saw the two of them coming back, he hurriedly ran over.

"What's wrong? Then why did the old woman come to find Shu Niang, but it's okay? ”

Yan's care made Song Shu's heart warm, whether it was in the past or in this other world, she had never had the care of her mother. But Yan's treat her like her own daughter.

"Mother, don't worry, we are safe and sound, but that mother-in-law, who slandered us and didn't say anything, and roared in court, is now arrested by the county government."

Hearing this, Yan also took a sip.

"Well caught! Who dares to come to our house to make trouble, that mother-in-law seems to be smelling the old woman? ”

Song Shu nodded, saw Pei Xuan's eyes staring at the side, and said busily: "If the prince has something to do, go first, I will go back to the house with my mother first, you are careful in everything." ”

Hearing this, Yan's face was a little unhappy.

glared at Pei Xuan fiercely: "You know that you are busy all day long, and you should accompany Shu Niang more when you are free, that's it, today I see that you have protected Shu Niang, so I won't talk about you, let's go and be busy first." ”

"Thank you, mother, that son went first."

Pei Xuan turned to leave, looking at the back, Song Shu suddenly felt some indescribable emptiness in her heart.

Yan checked while asking, but fortunately, Song Shu was not injured, and Yan was relieved.

"It's too much to smell the old woman! Relying on his son's fame, he bullied others a lot, and now he finally gets retribution! Bah! Deserve! ”

It is rare to see Yan like this, Song Shu also knows the temper of her mother-in-law, and the most unsightly thing is someone like Wen Lao Niang.

And the Yan family is so protective, if the life is good in the future, he must be filial to the Yan family.

It was late at night, and Song Shu, who had been tossing for most of the night, was a little rested.

When the moonlight was in the sky, Pei Xuan hesitated, as if thinking of something, he strode towards his destination.
