Chapter 086: Follow your brother's ambition
"If the old lady just wants to save Ling Lang's life, it won't be difficult."
Hua Rujin looked at the Liu family thoughtfully: "But I heard you just say that Ling Lang confessed to adultery on his own, but it is a little difficult to do." ”
Although Bai Huahua's silver looked cute, she was not in a hurry to come up with ideas for the Liu family.
is also a woman, comparing her heart to her heart, she can't ruin a person's innocence just like that.
How difficult it is for women to survive in this era, if it is really the son of the Liu family who raped the daughter of the Zhang family, then it will be difficult for him to ruin a woman's future for these hundreds of taels of silver.
Liu Shi was already in turmoil at this time, and he fell to his knees again without crying, and cried bitterly: "My son was poured ecstasy soup by the mother and daughter of the Zhang family, and now he is bent on death." ”
I cried at the bottom of the rest, and I fainted directly from crying.
Seeing this, Hua Rujin had to step forward and work with the envoy to help her up again.
The envoy was also distressed when she saw the old lady like this, and she knelt down and prayed:
"Miss Hua, what my wife said is true, although my son-in-law is not a well-educated person, but if it weren't for the reason, he would never do such a thing, and he is sincere to Miss Zhang, if Miss Zhang is unwilling, he will not force others."
"Since it's not forced, then why doesn't your wife bow her head and talk to the mother and daughter of the Zhang family, now that the raw rice is cooked and cooked, wouldn't everyone be happy to get married?"
Hua Rujin looked at the little envoy in confusion: "Your son-in-law and Miss Zhang's family are in love, why would she rather not want her innocence than sue her lover to the court, and even put your son-in-law to death?" ”
"Why didn't you intercede."
The female envoy looked helpless: "My wife is about to kneel down the threshold of the Zhang family, but since the incident, the Miss Zhang family has disappeared, and the mother-in-law of the Zhang family even threatened, saying that my son-in-law has tarnished her daughter's innocence, and I have to apologize for the crime with death." ”
"That's kind of weird."
Hua Rujin couldn't help but shake her head and smile bitterly: "As your wife said, the lady of the Zhang family has long known that her daughter is secretly dealing with your son-in-law, and even acquiescing and conniving, why do you have to put your son-in-law to death at this time?" ”
After lowering her eyebrows and being silent for a moment, she suddenly looked at the female envoy sharply: "Could it be that your wife and the lady of the Zhang family have formed a deep hatred?" ”
"Not really."
The envoy shook her head sullenly: "My wife has always been a knife-mouthed tofu heart, and she also pities their mother and daughter on weekdays, and feels that their orphans and widows have helped a lot, and even mentioned the family affairs of the two families to the master before the incident. ”
"I see."
Hua Rujin sighed and looked at the Liu family: "In this way, I will send your wife back with you first, and by the way, I will visit the lady of the Zhang family." ”
At the moment, it's not easy for her to make a direct conclusion, but she vaguely feels that there are too many strange things in it.
If it is really because of the personal feud between the two women that the future of the two children is on the way, it is not a good deal.
The bag of gold and silver was re-wrapped, the female envoy carried the Liu family on her back, and the two slowly walked out of the teahouse.
met Ting An at the door, and saw him staring at the master and servant in front of him with a confused expression, Hua Rujin explained casually: "I accompanied this lady to Zhang's house in the south of the city. ”
"Zhang's family in the south of the city?"
Ting An heard someone talking about this matter outside the teahouse, and hurriedly signaled: "Miss Hua, isn't it for the young lady of the Zhang family?" ”
He didn't allow Hua Rujin to answer, so he asked and answered: "This matter has been closed, last night the son took back the closing statement of the Tuzhi County trial, which was confessed by the son of the Li family, he personally admitted that he had committed adultery with Miss Zhang, and my son-in-law has submitted the case file to the prefect." ”
Thinking about Lu Xiuyuan's previous beating of people into tricks, Ting An immediately emphasized: "I haven't used torture, it's a matter of human life, and Gongzi personally went to the prison last night to verify with the prisoner." ”
"It seems that there should be nothing wrong with this."
Hua Rujin smiled faintly.
The little scholar said this, she didn't want to go to Zhang's house again, so she had to say perfunctorily: "Then I will accompany this sister to send Mrs. Liu back to the house first." ”
Ting An nodded hesitantly: "I'll go and set up a carriage for Miss Hua." ”
"Not necessarily."
Hua Rujin waved her hand: "I can't delay too much time, I'm afraid Ye Gongzi is very busy over there, you go to the county government to help Ye Gongzi take care of things." ”
Ting An didn't dare to persuade again, and watched her get into Liu's carriage.
At the end of the day, Ye Chengwei sat in the county office of Jiang'an County, staring at the thick file on the desk, his cherry blossom-like apricot eyes blinked slightly from time to time, and the whole person looked a little sluggish.
It is said that it is difficult for a Qing official to cut off family affairs, and he has recently felt more and more personally the power of this.
However, after taking over the affairs of Jiang'an County for two days, the things encountered seemed ordinary, but they were more difficult to bite than the other.
It's either adultery or rape.
Thinking about picking up the file in front of him, he glanced at it roughly, and it turned out that two villagers had gone to the government because of a fight between their farming cattle in the fields, and the lawsuit had not been brought to a conclusion for several years.
Just as he was hesitating, he suddenly saw Ting An tiptoe in.
"Miss Hua's side. Done? ”
Ye Chengwei's eyebrows flashed lightly, glancing at him.
Ting An was silent and did not answer, only turning his gaze behind him.
"Brother has been relying on that Miss Flower a lot lately."
Hearing a familiar voice, Ye Chengwei looked intently and saw that it was He Shiyin who led the female envoy to step in slowly.
"Miss He is also going to join in the fun?"
Ye Chengwei smiled meaningfully.
Thinking that Jiang'an County has been moving a lot recently, even the patrol press will also come, as the only female lawyer in Jiangling City, she will not miss such a good opportunity.
"It's just a matter of being entrusted with loyalty."
He Shiyin's small mouth curled slightly, and she walked straight to him, and said while looking at the file spread out on the desk: "I didn't expect that when I first came to Jiang'an County, I heard that something had happened in Tuzhi County, and I am afraid that I will have to beg for food under my brother in the future." ”
"As long as Miss He has a clear conscience, this bowl of rice will naturally be able to eat with peace of mind even if it comes to His Majesty."
Ye Chengwei's clear eyes suddenly froze.
I have heard that her means of making money are not weaker than Gu Langxi, and she writes a complaint for someone for thousands of taels of silver.
Even if a person does not enter the court, he has already earned a lot of money after a case, which is comparable to the salary of a senior member of the imperial court for a year.
Let only not a single piece of the money she earns be unclean.
He Shiyin's face was unusually calm, and she replied with a light smile: "Brother said that he was laughing, how dare the little sister make a tiger in front of the elder brother, the elder brother's teachings are like life, and she never dares to slack off, she has nothing else to ask for in this life, but she is willing to follow her brother's ambition." ”
"It couldn't be better."
Ye Chengwei closed his gaze, and the eyes of the two fell to the file on the desk.
