13 Believe

When everyone heard Chu Yao say "no need", they thought that she didn't want to report to the official, and their eyes when they looked at her became subtle, probably thinking that she didn't dare to report to the official because of her weak heart, so they whispered.

Jiang Qingci was also very surprised, and asked her in a low voice: "Are you really not going to report to the official?" ”

"Well, you don't have to." She was unusually calm.

When the woman saw that Chu Yao didn't go to report to the official, she scolded more and more violently: "Look, she has done such a hurtful thing, how dare she report to the official?" This kind of woman who doesn't abide by women's morals learns to steal men at a young age, and my eldest man is such an honest person, but he actually fell for the way of this snake and scorpion poisonous woman......"

At this time, someone had already entered, removed the bed board and lifted the man out: "Let ...... quickly"

Jiang Qingci turned around and covered Chu Yao's eyes: "There is blood, don't look at it!" ”

He was very close to her, and the fresh and refreshing fragrance of cypress came from his body, which calmed her slightly.

Everyone went to look at the man lying on the door......

"Oh my God, what a grudge to hurt people like this?"

"Both legs are broken, so ruthless ......"

"Is it really this little lady who interrupted? I don't think she has that much strength......"

For a while, there was a lot of gossip, and everyone had different opinions, Jiang Qingci listened to it in his ears, although it was not himself who was talked about, but he still felt uncomfortable, not to mention that Chu Yao was just a woman, and I didn't know if she could keep it.

He looked down at the woman in front of him, she was much thinner than the last time they met, I don't know if she had experienced anything bad during this time, just looked at her from a distance in front of the happy hall, her eyebrows and eyes were haggard, her expression was faint, as if she was wrapped in a sadness.

For now, she stood quietly, listening to the words around her, not speaking or justifying, as if her body was here, but her mind had wandered far away.

She was probably frightened when she encountered such an inexplicable thing.

The woman went to the hospital with her son for the time being, and when she left, she left a few cruel words: "I'll settle accounts with you when I come back!" If my son is paralyzed and wasted, you will have to serve my son as a cow and a horse for the rest of your life! ”

Chu Yao snorted coldly.

The aunt and the third aunt and his wife thought that Chu Yao would not report to the official, so they were not so nervous, and the third aunt even invited relatives and friends to go back to continue eating and drinking, and the aunt said to Ai Ai and Chu Yao: "My sister-in-law has a hot temperament, you say that no matter how you do, you can't beat people like that?" In the future, his family will definitely not give up......"

Where has Chu Yao's mother, Zhou, seen such a thing, and she is angry and anxious: "What the hell is going on?" A-Yao, how did you stay with that person? Was it really you who broke his leg? ”

"Mother, don't be afraid," Chu Yao comforted her mother while looking at her uncle coldly, "He deserves it!" Those who want to harm me will deserve it! ”

My aunt's eyes dodged, and she didn't dare to stay in front of her for a long time: "Your clothes are torn, go home and change your clothes." Your third aunt can't be busy, I'm going to help......"

Zhou didn't want to stay here anymore, so he pulled Chu Yao and said, "Let's go home first." ”

Chu Yao didn't move: "I'm not leaving." ”

"You kid," the people who were eating wine in the courtyard frequently looked here, and being stared at by so many people, Zhou only felt that his face was also hot, "What are you doing here?" Do you want to be a monkey? She wanted to pull Chu Yao away, but Chu Yao was like her feet nailed to the ground, and she didn't want to go.

Half an hour later, when the guests of the wedding banquet were full of wine and food, suddenly a team of officials rushed in, surrounded everyone, and asked everyone to cooperate with the investigation of the case and go to the yamen.

Everyone was stunned all of a sudden, and Chu Yao's third uncle dared to ask, "We don't have anyone here to report the case?" ”

The leading official was tall and strong, and his voice was loud: "No one reported the case, we are full of food and can we hold up here?" All follow me to the yamen, and go quickly! ”

There were many officials, about thirty or forty people, everyone was shocked and frightened, they didn't dare to say anything, and honestly walked out in their torch-like eyes, and even the bride in the backyard who had not yet removed the hijab was shouted out by the officials, and Qiu He led the way by holding hands, and walked out with a mandarin duck hijab.

On the other hand, Chu Yao and her mother Zhou had already sat in Jiang Qingci's carriage.

Zhou had never seen so many officials, so he almost scared his soul away, and now he was sitting in the carriage to the Yamen, his heart was still beating hard, and he asked Chu Yao in fear: "Are they coming for us?" Who reported it? ”

"It's me who called someone to report to the official," Chu Yao told her mother the ins and outs of the matter, so that she would go to the court to confront her later, and her mother was well prepared, "My aunt told me to go to the courtyard next door, saying that she wanted to give me a kiss, and the object was the woman's son, I didn't want to, so they locked me in the yard, and the man treated me wrongly, and he broke his leg thanks to someone's help, and the man confided the truth and said yes...... Say yes ......"

Chu Yao really couldn't say the filthy words, so she could only compromise and say, "It was my aunt who asked him to do this, in order to plot my money and shop ......"

Zhou was shocked and angry: "Is it really your aunt who instigated him?" Didn't he talk nonsense and deliberately frame your aunt? Your aunt and uncle...... How could she harm you? ”

Seeing that her mother wanted to exonerate her aunt, Chu Yao was aggrieved: "Mother doesn't believe me? ”

"It's not that I don't believe you, it's just ......" Zhou swayed, panicking for a moment, "Is it a relative, she can't really want to harm you?" If you report to the official, you will definitely have no relatives to do in the future, and if this kind of thing is not clear, if it spreads, everyone knows that you are in the same room with other men, will you marry in the future? β€œ

Chu Yao has survived until now with one breath, and she didn't care what others said before, but she didn't expect her mother to say the same, and even her mother was not on her side.

"If I hadn't been deceived by my aunt, how could I have been in the same room with a strange man? Besides, he didn't succeed, I want to marry in the future, what does it have to do with this? ”

Zhou was so anxious that he rubbed his hands and muttered: "Since he didn't succeed, you shouldn't have reported to the official, and you also injured people like that, and when you go to the court, we don't take care of it......"

Chu Yao suddenly couldn't hold back, the composure and strength of the pretense all collapsed at this moment, tears of grievance and shame poured up, she was hot, and her shoulders trembled: "They just expected that I didn't dare to report to the official, and they didn't dare to publicize this kind of thing, so they dared to bully me like this!" But why? Why should I swallow my anger when I am insulted? Why does he think that when he touches my body, he wants me to submit to him? I'm going to make a big deal out of this, so that those who have evil intentions, and those who have dirty hearts, will all be punished! ”

Zhou didn't expect his daughter to suddenly collapse, and was stunned for a while: "I ......"

Chu Yao lowered her head and sobbed, biting her lip and trying her best to calm herself down, but once the pent-up emotions opened the floodgates, it was difficult to regain them. Her throat ached, and the more she tried to endure it, the more her body trembled......

A neat cyan brocade was handed to her.

"Don't be afraid, Mrs. Chu, I support you." The clear voice with a soothing tone, along the hand pinched the Jinpa and looked up, Jiang Qingci sat opposite her with a cloud brocade, like the shining snow on the high mountain, gently dissipating the resentment in her heart, "I will accompany you to the court, I believe that you are innocent, and you are only hurting people to protect yourself, not afraid of ......"

"Thank you......" she choked.

"Don't cry anymore......" His eyes reflected her long crying wet eyelashes, the reddened corners of her eyes and nose, and her bitten lips, and there was a strange look in his heart for no reason, as if he was sorry, or not.

They arrived at the court first by carriage, and Jiang Qingci accompanied Chu Yao to the court and told the county magistrate the truth of the matter.

The county commander's surname is Chen, he knows Jiang Qingci, and when he sees him standing with this little lady, he is more and more surprised, and he is very curious about what this little lady is about.

The person who came to report to the official before took the token to show him, and scared him a lot, that person was actually the person of the king of Jinyang, and now the king of Jinyang has ascended the throne as the emperor in Kyoto, but he did not expect that there is still an old department in this small county town of Suizhou.

The man reported to the official that someone had bullied the people's daughter, and Chen County Ling attached great importance to this matter, and almost dispatched all the officials in the yamen to bring the people involved.

The officials who were sent out lived up to their expectations, bringing back dozens of people, and there were even brides and grooms dressed in wedding clothes......

In a few moments, another swearing woman and a wounded man lying on a plank were carried inβ€”the main perpetrator of the day.

It is not a case that is difficult to judge, as long as there are witnesses in this kind of case, no matter how small the punishment is, the case can basically be decided.

Chen Xianling slapped the shocked wood, stopped the woman who was scolding, and beat her ten boards on the grounds of disturbing the court, so that everyone was immediately intimidated, and they were all silent, asking and answering.

When asked who saw Chu Yao being taken to the courtyard next door, it was you looking at me, I looking at you, and they all shook their heads and said they didn't see it.

In the end, only Qiu He, the daughter of the third aunt, and Su Shi, the second daughter-in-law of the uncle, stood up.

Qiu He testified that it was her aunt who took Chu Yao away, and Su Shi even proved that she had heard her mother-in-law and her second aunt, third aunt and others discuss the matter of giving Chu Yao a kiss, and even discussed how to divide Chu Yao's property after the matter was completed: her mother-in-law wanted Chu Yao to buy a new house, the second aunt wanted Chu Yao's shop, and the third aunt and the woman shared Chu Yao's 1,000 taels of silver......

Su Shi said: "I originally wanted to find an opportunity to remind Cousin Yao, but I never found a chance today, let alone thought that my mother-in-law would choose to attack Cousin Yao today......"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked, the aunt and the two aunts knelt on the ground and said that they had been wronged, Su's husband, Chu Yao's second cousin, even pulled Su and raised his hand to beat her, and after being restrained by the officials, he cursed: "You slut squirting people with blood, see if I turn around and clean you up?" ”

Su Mingnian, a delicate and delicate talented woman, had a straight back at this time, and was calm: "My lord, what I just said is true. The reason why my mother-in-law wants Ah Yao's cousin's house is because my husband has an outer room outside, and the outer room is pregnant and wants a good house to raise his body. The second aunt wants to shop for business, and the third aunt wants silver because my cousin is addicted to gambling and has a lot of debts, and the money for today's wedding banquet is borrowed from my mother-in-law......"

When the bride who got married today heard this, she immediately lifted her hijab and immediately repented and refused to marry.

When the court was boarded, it was a mess again, beating, scolding, crying, making trouble, and jumping for a while.

It is difficult for Qing officials to cut off family affairs, not to mention the affairs of so many families, Chen County ordered that the Tang Mu was about to break down, and he couldn't stop it for a while, and in the end there was no way to ask the officials to separate everyone, and the interrogation of one family after another, and finally after hearing Chu Yao's case, two marriage disputes were tried by the way.

One is the bride and groom today, the bride claims that the two have not drunk the wine and have not had a cave room, so the marriage is invalid, and she is willing to return all the dowry, and the county order is approved.

The other is the second cousin of Su Nian and Chu Yao, the second cousin wants to divorce his wife, Su Nian wants to reconcile, and the county order says that Su Nian has not committed the crime of seven outs, so he can only divorce and divorce, not divorce his wife.

As for Chu Yao's side, because she didn't beat the person, she didn't need to bear any responsibility, and the man couldn't tell who beat him, but he bullied Chu Yao and was imprisoned with his mother. Chu Yao's aunt and others also had to go to prison for a period of reflection because they deliberately instigated others to commit crimes......
