Chapter 215: The county order's heart is also biased!
At this time, when the sun was setting in the west, the peasants who entered the city were ready to go out of the city, and the idlers who went out to play were ready to enter the city. The city gate can be said to be the busiest time of the day.
The weary soldiers yawned, and simply checked the people's baskets with their scabbards, and joked with each other from time to time, but none of them took it seriously.
After all, there are border guards at the border gates, and it can't be said that not a single fly can fly in, but at least it is impregnable. And Tai'an is even more of a poor country, but any thief with a little brain will not come.
Entering and exiting the city gate is just a formality.
Even the soldiers couldn't do it if they wanted to scrape the oil, because the people were too poor......
But today it is obvious that it is an exception, and it is destined to be a big bustle.
On the five or six carriages that came from afar, there were 100 peasants, old and young, strong and weak, but they were all raised and high-spirited.
On the contrary, there were more than 20 people in the back of the carriage, who looked like servants of Qingyishui, and among them was a noble son.
These people were tied with their hands tied, staggering and hurrying, their tired heads and faces covered with a layer of sweat and dust, they were really no better than mud monkeys, and they were very embarrassed.
A soldier recognized the old man Tai in the first car and asked loudly, "Uncle Tai, what kind of trouble are you making today?" Caught a thief again? ”
He meant to be joking, where did he think that Old Man Tai should be simply, "Little brother, you are really right!" Someone pretended to be the son of an official family and brought thieves to our house to rob the cashmere workshop! Fortunately, our people united and desperately caught them! Let's go to the county government to beat the drum, and wait for the county commander to call the shots for us! ”
"Yo he, this is really eating the gall of a leopard! actually deceived Uncle Tai! ”
Surprised and curious, the soldiers hurriedly took a closer look at the people who had been kidnapped.
When Wang Gongzi saw the soldiers, it was like seeing a savior, and he shouted loudly, "Come on, untie me!" Woo, I want to see my dad! Kill all these untouchables! ”
It's a pity that he was as stupid as a pig, and because of his weak legs, he couldn't walk on the road, and he fell countless heels, which was like a mud ball at this time.
Not to mention the soldiers guarding the door, even if the mother comes, you may not be able to recognize it!
Some soldiers even kicked him with a smile and scolded, "Why are you still addicted, you really think of yourself as an official son!" Hurry up and go to the county government to get the board! ”
Soon, the convoy entered the city and went to the county office.
A group of idlers who craned their necks to watch the excitement talked about it.
"This Tai family is really powerful, but if there is a thief in Jiangyang, don't commit it in the hands of his family, otherwise there will be no return."
"This group of people doesn't look very powerful, it should be a gang of liars! Now I'm afraid it's not easy to sell my body to bury my father, so I changed it to a white Arowana suit! ”
"Hahaha, it's possible! It's just that these liars are too stupid, whose noble son is as fat as a pig! ”
Everyone laughed and laughed, some of them had nothing to do, and even followed from afar, planning to continue to watch the excitement in front of the yamen and chase a follow-up.
Several soldiers continued to be lazily "busy", and suddenly the soldier who kicked the "mud ball" dropped the saber in his hand, his eyes widened in horror, and he shouted helplessly, "It's over, it's over!" ”
"What's the matter, all this fuss?" The rest of the partners are all inquiring.
The soldier opened his mouth for a long time before he popped out a few words, "The youngest son of Wang Xiancheng's family, I heard that he just came back from the South Academy, and he looks ugly...... Fat again! ”
Ugly and fat?
Everyone didn't react for a while, and when they remembered the "liar" just now, they were all choked by saliva!
O God!
It's all over the calf!
That "mud ball" just now seems to be really an official son!
At this time, the convoy also arrived in front of the county yamen, and an errand officer had already stepped forward to ask, "What's wrong?" ”
Old Man Tai immediately responded, "Poor master, let's report the case!" There are charlatans who pretend to be the sons of official families and come to our house with the intention of forcibly breaking into the workshop and stealing the top-secret stitch method of my cashmere products! The people of our village worked together to catch the liar and sent him over to beg the county lord to call the shots! ”
The errand officer was happy when he heard it, there was no need to contribute to this case, as long as he was promoted to the court and punished, it was simply a political achievement sent to the county magistrate.
Immediately, someone went to the back to tell him.
After a while, the servants ascended to the court, and Old Man Tai and Third Master Tai were the representatives of the plaintiff, and "Mud Ball" and the blue-clothed dog leg were considered the defendant's representatives, and they were taken to the court together.
Although the county order doesn't care about the affairs of the back house, he still knows about some things about his family and the Tai family.
Previously, his wife liked Mrs. Min's double-sided embroidered fan, and Mrs. Min later specially sent one, which was the craftsmanship of the daughter-in-law of the Tai family.
After the year, the lion ice sculpture in front of the yamen and the various lanterns decorating the back garden are also masterpieces of the Tai family.
Even, Mrs. talked to him before, regretting that she didn't give birth to a well-behaved little girl, but also because she liked and envied the fat doll of the Tai family......
So at this time, on the one hand, there was the familiar Tai family, and on the other hand, there was a mud ball master and servant duo that his mother couldn't recognize, and he decisively chose to inquire about the Tai family first.
At the critical moment, Old Man Tai was not bad at all, he knelt down respectfully, and said, "Lord County Order, Tai Baocheng, a grass citizen, lives in Taijia Village in the south of the city.
"About three months ago, my family got some cashmere thread by chance, and my eldest daughter-in-law, who was born in the south, knew some spinning skills, so she spun cashmere into thread, dyed it, and thought of a new way to weave it into clothes and pants and cushions. I was taken by my youngest son to the south to sell, and won the favor of the merchants in the south.
"In the past few days, merchants from the south have come over and bought a batch at a high price. Originally, this was a good thing, our family took the whole family to buy cashmere, wash the spinning thread, knit clothes and pants, and seeing that life was going to be better, I didn't want to provoke the bad people and have bad thoughts.
"Just now, these people suddenly came to the door and said that my family's method of knitting clothes and pants was stolen from him, and he brought it back from the south a few days ago! It's not possible at all, because our family started knitting three months ago, definitely much earlier than him. If you want to say that stealing is also how they stole our family's weaving!
"But these people are not reasonable at all, they have to force themselves into the workshop to see if the weaving method is the same, in fact, they want to steal and steal the teacher! Fortunately, our people were united and worked together to capture these people.
As a result, these people were worried about being punished, and shouted that they were the sons of the official family, saying that the entire Tai'an was their family's final say! Especially this fat boy, who is still clamoring for his father to behead us untouchables!
"We were really angry, so we sent them over, hoping that Lord Qingtian would call the shots for us and severely punish these liars!"
The county magistrate nodded when he heard this, and when he sent the servant to tell him, he had already said it in passing.
The city is now talking about the huge profits of the Tai family's cashmere pants, and everyone is "envious".
It's not surprising that someone comes to the door and wants to strike first!
