Chapter 149: She's never been a flower to be kneaded
Ning Xin came and went like a gust of wind, and also took away her father's gloomy mood.
The girl not only didn't get angry with him, but also said that she wanted to save him even if she was bankrupt.
No one can fail to be moved by such words.
With the silver dotting, several jailers had a better attitude towards him.
For lunch, he was not allowed to eat boiled cabbage from the wooden barrel with the prisoners, but the jailer bought a bowl of noodles for him from outside.
Ning Chengwen had already come out of the academy yesterday afternoon and wanted to go home to celebrate Xin'er's birthday.
As a result, on the way back, he bumped into Cheng Xiu'e again.
Cheng Xiu'e was wearing a tattered dress, and her exposed skin was covered with scars.
She said that she had been locked up by Ning Xin before, and it was not easy to escape.
If Ning Chengwen didn't listen to her, she would go to the government to accuse Ning Xin of bullying her biological mother.
This dynasty attaches the most importance to filial piety.
If a child dares to beat his or her mother, he will be hanged directly.
Ning Chengwen knew that half of his daughter's treatment of Cheng Xiu'e was definitely for himself, and of course he wouldn't let Cheng Xiu'e really report to the official, so he pretended to agree, wanting to see what means she would have.
Zuo just wanted money, and he thought he would be able to handle it.
Unexpectedly, when the two walked to the place where Cheng Xiu'e stayed, they found a strong man lying on his back inside the door.
He had a sharp blade stuck in his chest, and blood was gushing down the wound.
The room smelled of blood.
Ning Chengwen realized that something was wrong in an instant, and as soon as he reflexively wanted to leave, he was knocked down by a stick and fainted directly.
When he woke up again, he was already locked up in the government prison.
He only learned from the jailer that the deceased person was Cheng Xiu'e's new husband, the butcher surnamed Zheng.
As for the rest, no one told him, no matter how much he shouted wronged, the jailer would only comfort him and wait, and everything would be clear after the hall.
For a day and a night, Ning Chengwen still hadn't figured out why Cheng Xiu'e wanted to harm him.
But after his daughter came to see him, he didn't seem to be as scared as before.
After eating the noodles quietly, I sat in the corner in a daze.
The jailer and the cell boss both took Ning Xin's money and cared for him very much, asking her if she needed anything from time to time.
When he asked for the third time, Ning Chengwen suddenly raised his eyes from behind the candle flame and said, "Can you bother the eldest brother to go to the house to get my books?" ”
“……”
I've seen people who want to eat and drink in prisons, and I've even seen women who want women in prisons.
But the head of the cell has never seen anyone who still needs books to read in the prison.
But, Ning Sanyuan, if someone can connect Sanyuan, his head must look different from others.
"Okay, I'll pick it up at your house when I get my shift in the evening."
This cell boss has been working in the prison for half his life, and his eyes are very poisonous, a person with clear eyes like Ning Chengwen, let alone killing, even if he kills chickens, he won't dare.
The Wenqu star who went down to earth was persecuted, which is enough to make people sympathetic.
In addition, the little girl of the Ning family is very generous.
The cell boss naturally took care of the other party respectfully, and maybe people would remember a little kindness from him when they got out of prison in the future.
changed shifts that night, the cell boss talked and counted, and went all the way to the Ning family's house in the wind and snow.
There was silence inside and outside the house, and the cell boss grabbed the knocker and slammed the door twice.
"Who?"
There was a question from inside the door, and a tall figure flashed through the alley.
The cell leader shrunk his shoulders, thinking that he had seen a mistake, and replied to the door: "I'm here to talk back for your family Ning Sanyuan." ”
There was a stumble in the door for a while, and soon, an old man with white hair and white beard walked out of the door.
It's Uncle Yu.
When they went to the prison today, the two met, and in order to leave enough space for the father and daughter to talk, Fourth Uncle Yu also specially talked to the cell boss.
Seeing that it was him at this time, Fourth Uncle Yu's face, which had never been smiling, struggled to draw an arc.
Ning Xin said that this is knowing how to judge the situation, and her father is now under the hands of others, so he must have a better attitude towards these brothers.
"Chengwen has something to bring back?"
As soon as Fourth Uncle Yu finished asking, before the cell boss could answer, he saw Ning Xin, who had changed her bedclothes, wearing a big coat, carried by her subordinates, and walked out with an umbrella.
"You're here, what's the matter with my father?"
Her smile was sweet and hypocritical, and the tiredness on her face could hardly be hidden.
But from the angle of the cell boss, I could only see the corners of her lips raised high, and I only felt that this girl was really likable, worthy of Ning Sanyuan's daughter.
"Ning Sanyuan asked me to come back and get some of his books, pen and ink."
He told the two of them about Ning Chengwen's needs.
Ning Xin slapped her thigh and said "oops".
She forgot that she was going to take the township exam soon after the year.
This is a murder case, and she went to see Governor Luo today, and the other party's vague attitude also made her understand that this matter may not be so easy to solve.
In this case, her father will not stay in prison for a short time.
If the knife is not sharpened, it will rust, and people will not learn to lag behind.
Everyone else is hanging in the academy, and her father can't relax in the prison.
Thinking of this, she smiled and said to the cell head: "I know, soon I will ask the family to send everything my father needs, thank you." ”
As she spoke, her little white and chubby hands stretched out from her sleeves, and she took out a small silver ingot and stuffed it into the cell boss's hand.
"It's too late today, so I won't leave you, you can go and eat some hot wine to warm up."
The silver ingots were hot in her little hands.
After saying this, the cell boss felt as if someone had poured a basin of boiling water on him.
He took the silver, and while saying that he would take good care of Ning Chengwen, he mentioned it again: "I seem to have seen a dark shadow at the door just now, I don't know if I was staring at your mansion." ”
Ning Xin frowned, and Fourth Uncle Yu's face sank.
He has been practicing martial arts for many years, and it stands to reason that he will not be unaware of the fact that there are people near his home who listen to the corner.
But it happened that it was snowing today, the stove was lit in the house, and the snow was falling outside, and the ear power that he had always been proud of didn't play a role.
"Okay, got it, thank you." He arched his hand at the cell boss and sent the man out of the door.
After the cell boss left, Fourth Uncle Yu soon came back with Li Gui.
The two entered Ning Xin's door and let Wutong guard outside.
The candlelight in the room flickered, and the three people, one old and one young, were so frowning that they could almost kill flies.
Fourth Uncle Yu said: "I took a look outside the door, and there were indeed new footprints around, and someone was indeed watching us." ”
Ning Xin suddenly thought of being followed by those two disgusting Bala people at the gate of the martial arts hall.
She was followed, Cheng Xiu'e was suddenly kidnapped, and her father was inexplicably involved in a murder.
None of this seems to have happened by accident.
She came out of the prison in the afternoon and went to see Cheng Xiu'e.
She didn't run away, but stayed in an inn in the city.
The mother and daughter had no warmth at all when they met, and the two of them were like fighting cocks, and they both wanted to strangle each other to death.
For some reason, Cheng Xiu'e didn't seem to reveal to the government that she was privately imprisoned by Ning Xin.
But in the same way, she didn't want to say a word about her ex-husband killing her current husband.
The question is that two men are jealous, she is just a weak woman who has no power to restrain the chicken.
Ning Xin can believe that there are ghosts.
But now Cheng Xiu'e, as an important witness, has always been surrounded by people sent by the government to protect her.
She can't act rashly.
Let yourself be angry and want to bite someone, and in the end you can only leave the inn in a huff.
Although Cheng Xiu'e didn't say anything, Ning Xin was not completely fruitless.
She felt that Cheng Xiu'e was very sad about the death of Zheng Butcher, and she also hated Ning Chengwen.
Saying that he was a scourge, not only harmed her first marriage, but now he has come to harm her second marriage.
She didn't want Zheng Butcher to die, but Zheng Butcher still died.
Ning Xin suspected that there was something behind Cheng Xiu'e that she couldn't resist pushing her to do these things.
Who is the person behind you? What are their motives?
Ning Xin thought about it all night, her head was messy, and she didn't come up with a possible reason.
She couldn't help but tugging at the stray hair on the top of her head.
Li Gui brushed the top of her hair distressedly, and sighed: "Xin girl, you must bring someone when you go out in the future, but you must not be left alone." ”
Ning Xin pursed her lips and did not speak.
The candlelight shined through her tiny one, casting a huge figure on the white wall.
She's never been a little flower to be kneaded.
What's the point of hiding, she has to meet the people behind the trouble in person, so that she can know what their purpose is.
can quickly rescue her father from prison.
