Chapter 045: Compensation

Three days later

The sky is clear and the sun is shining, that is...... It's a little hot.

Cai Baiwei built a small pergola next to the stone well on the left side of the courtyard gate, and moved a small table in the house to the pergola, so that the family can sit here in the summer to eat and sit much more refreshing.

Hua Rujin sat in the pergola, watching everything Cai Baiwei rearrange, thinking about what she had experienced in the past few days, and her heart was palpitating.

Hua Youen and Hua Muyang, two little beans, squatted beside Hua Rujin and looked at Cai Baiwei, who was busy not far away, and also followed suit.

"Rujin, you said that Wei Niang hoeed the weeds in the small open space in the corner of the guest room to grow some side vegetables, the owner of the house should not blame, right?"

Cai Baiwei suddenly turned around and asked.

"No, it's no problem for A-Niang to plant anything."

Hua Rujin raised her eyes and looked over there, thinking that she was originally planting melons, fruits and vegetables, but no one was taking care of the weeds right now.

"Then listen to you."

Cai Baiwei put down the hoe and walked over slowly, her bright eyes suddenly flashed with sadness: "Today is the 60th birthday of your Shu grandmother, and in the morning, your father told me to buy more congratulatory gifts for us to go." ”

"A-Niang take Muyang and Youen with you, I'll stay in the house to watch the door."

Hua Rujin replied with a light smile.

Although she heard Hua Youen mention that Tao came to the house that day to accuse Sang and scold Huai and say some ugly things, she always broke the bones and tendons, and she was not wrong to worry about her grandson.

You can't divide your family and betray your relatives everywhere.

As long as they don't go to the door of Shu's house, they can't find anything wrong with the etiquette they should have.

Cai Baiwei thought about it, understood what her daughter meant, and nodded heavily: "It's okay, let's come back earlier." ”

"I'm going to stay at home with my sister."

Hua Youen hurriedly pursed her lips.

Hua Muyang also nodded anxiously.

"How can you let A-Niang go alone."

Hua Rujin patted the docile and well-behaved little Muyang: "You follow A-Niang." ”

Hua Muyang looked unhappy, but thinking that the second aunt's family was afraid that they would also go to the Shu family, she had to nod obediently.

"If you meet the second aunt's family, A-Niang doesn't have to endure it everywhere, our family doesn't owe them anything."

Hua Rujin looked at the gentle and dignified Cai Baiwei and said in a deep voice.

"I know, with your uncle, aunt and uncle here, they don't dare to embarrass it."

Cai Baiwei smiled innocently.

"That's right."

Hua Rujin also showed the same smile.

The original owner's uncle Shu Jiayan was already partial to the sixth room, and the eldest uncle Hua Junyao was jealous of Hu Nanxi for being ruthless and letting the second child go to the county yading, and the family did not want to see the second room, and when he arrived at the Shu family, he would indeed favor the weakest sixth room.

Looking up at the sun, Cai Baiwei didn't dare to delay any longer, led Hua Muyang to the house to change clothes, and hurriedly went out with a bamboo basket on her back.

Hua Rujin took a copy of "The Iron Law of Salt" and pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and returned to the pergola to teach Hua Youen to read and write, while continuing to read.

These days, she has memorized the content of "Household Marriage" very well, combined with the laws of her time, and will be able to use it handily when the time comes.

After the incident of the Dou family, she gradually had a clear direction in her heart, there are not a few women with the same miserable fate as her in this era, if you work more hard in this regard, you can not only help others, but also earn some silver.

And those male litigators who pride themselves on being rich and wealthy will not necessarily think of making decisions for women.

In their eyes, once something happens, the woman will have to take the blame, either a red face or a Kefu and so on.

With this idea, she read more and more hard.

I don't know how long it took, but there was a sudden sound of knocking on the door outside the hospital.

Hearing the voice, Hua Youen rushed over quickly.

Hua Rujin had just gotten up when she heard Hua Youen shouting happily: "Sister, Sister, is the eldest uncle next to my brother-in-law." ”

Ting An was stunned when he listened: Am I that old?

called my own son-in-law big brother, but he called me big uncle.

Knowing that it was Ting'an, Hua Rujin hurriedly greeted her.

"Miss Hua, I'm here to deliver something for my son-in-law today."

With a bitter face, Ting An handed over a bulging briefcase to her:

"There are fifty taels of silver in this, which were copied from the Dou family, the Dou family seems to have a big business, but most of the silver earned over the years has been used to treat his family's strange disease, I heard that the son said that the cash silver confiscated from the Dou family is only three or five thousand taels, and the county will fill the tunnel of the Dou family, so some compensation will be given to the family of the woman who suffered this time."

"Thank you for me."

Hua Rujin took the bag and looked at it.

After all, it was the original owner who suffered, and he deserved to bring it himself.

Moreover, the compensation of fifty taels of silver is not a small amount for ordinary families, but I am afraid that if I change to other officials, I will have to take away a lot of the property obtained from this kind of robbery, so how can I think of compensating the people.

Thinking of this, she looked at Ting An slowly, and asked softly, "How is your son-in-law lately?" ”

"It's good."

Ting An smiled: "It's just that I'm busy with official business, and I don't have an eyebrow just for a few backlogs." ”

Hua Rujin raised her eyebrows: "Liu Zhixian actually had a backlog of so many old cases when he was in office? ”

"Don't mention it, Liu Zhixian committed suicide by jumping into the river on the Chu River and has not recovered the body so far."

Ting An's face was even more bitter: "His death is very relaxed, but many unsolved cases were all lost to Gongzi, just say that the headless male corpse dug up in the Dou family's cemetery a few days ago, Han Chun confessed, but he can't say where the head was hidden, Gongzi suspects that it must be the people from the Dianshi Mansion who beat people into tricks." ”

Hearing that Liu Cheng committed suicide in fear of sin, Hua Rujin chuckled in her heart.

This dog official is lazy and lazy, and he is not good at serving the people diligently, but he uses a woman's life to make political achievements, and he is not innocent when he dies.

But according to his understanding of the law of great karma, the crime he committed was not a capital crime, and he would not apologize for his crime with death, so why did he jump into the river?

Could it be that you are cowardly?

There is also the headless male corpse, since Han Chun has confessed, why did he hide the head?

It's weird.

"Maybe it's really a trick."

Hua Rujin replied lightly.

After all, a murder case of this level is not something that she can ask about for the time being, and even if she is eager to take over the case, she must calm down.

lest Ye Chengwei suspect that he had ulterior motives for him.

"It's that Miss Hua and my son-in-law have a tacit understanding, and the gang in the county government think that this person was killed by Han Chun, and the reason why Han Chun refuses to reveal where the head is hidden must be because he has been instructed by a master and is deliberately delaying time to seek a chance to survive."

Ting An scratched his head in disdain: "Oh, by the way, Gongzi also confessed, the entire Jiangling City has been searching for tunnels recently, if there is something wrong in Miss Hua's house, remember to report it to the county in time, and the county will send someone to fill it." ”

"Okay, I'll keep an eye on it."

Hua Rujin suddenly thought of the old beggar in her mind.

This man is mysterious, and he seems to know the history of Gangneung City well.

That day, I heard him say that he had filled in all the tunnels he had dug back then, but I didn't know if he could believe it.
