Chapter 236: Honestly Kneeling on the Washboard
Master Jiang was confused. Hearing Cui Pu's words, he suddenly came to his senses, and hurriedly dragged Jiang Xiaoniang to stand up: "Let's go back and talk!"
As for the ownership of the flesh and blood in the belly of the little lady, the county thinks it is better to give a judgment in the court, what do you think?" Cui Pu hurriedly stopped him and said with a smile.
Master Jiang was full of excitement, and immediately regretted not falling.
He was really crazy, how could he listen to his wife and daughter, really when his daughter got along with the county master, and she was pregnant with the county master's child?
How can this county magistrate be so easy to manipulate? Now, aren't they being slapped in the face?
In the first half of the year, all the squires in Tianchang County were beaten together, and everyone naturally tacitly swallowed this bitter fruit. But now, it was his turn to be taken out and beaten alone, or in front of so many squire's ladies...... He suddenly realized the feeling that the Zuo prefect and his wife were forced by Mu Jiaojiao in public that day. He had never been so embarrassed in his life, and he really wanted to die now!
On the side, Cui Pu was still urging: "Master Jiang, what do you say?"
Master Jiang closed his eyes and took a deep breath. "Everything is up to the county. ”
"Okay, this county will call someone to arrest Jiang's mother and son!" Cui Pu immediately clapped his hands.
Things had moved too quickly, and such waves of climaxes had struck, causing the squires present to be dumbfounded.
When Mu Jiaojiao asked them, "Have you eaten yet?" Do you want to go and sit in the back and have a cup of tea to eliminate your appetite?" their first reaction was to shake their heads—they hadn't seen enough of the show!
But they reacted immediately, and it was a signal from Mu Jiaojiao to remind them that it was time to leave. They quickly got up and excused themselves to leave.
Don't go! Now is not the time to leave, I haven't shut your mouths yet! Seeing this, Master Jiang and Mrs. Jiang immediately shouted in their hearts. It's just that under the cold gaze of Cui Pu and Mu Jiaojiao, they didn't even dare to move.
After more than an hour, Jiang's mother and son were finally arrested.
When we went to the mountain village, the mother and son were packing their bags and were about to run. Thankfully, we arrived in time to catch them on the spot. Otherwise, the two of them will just run away from it!"
When Master Jiang heard this, another thunderbolt hit him in his head.
He understood!
It turned out that all this had been under Cui Pu's control! He said, why has this county master been indifferent these days, as if everything had happened. He donated a huge sum of 1,000 yuan that day, and he took it for granted. The emotion is that he has guessed everything, just waiting for them to fall into the net! Jiang's mother's mother and son's every move, he has always known it clearly, otherwise why would his people be able to catch the mother and son at the moment before they were about to escape?
In vain, he thinks that he has walked more bridges than he has walked, and when he is older, he is well-informed, and his experience and scheming are better than him, and he has always had a little contempt for him in his heart. And now, it was this little contempt that made him so miserable!
Now all his anger is vented on Jiang's mother and son. "Good for you black-hearted mother and son! For the sake of Mother Jiang, you have raised Jiu Niangzi, and you will be entertained with delicious food and drink. Even if I send you back to the village, I will give you enough money, what are you not satisfied with, and you want to harm my daughter like this?"
Jiang's mother and son had been deceived on the way here. So as soon as he heard Master Jiang say this, Jiang's mother's son hurriedly said: "Master, I really admire the little lady." She and I grew up together, childhood sweethearts, and the two had no guesses, and they had some affection for each other. It's just that since my aunt left Jiangfu, I haven't seen the little lady again. I thought about her day and night, and it was easy that time she secretly called someone to call me into her embroidery room, and said a lot to me softly, and we couldn't hold it back for a while, so we ...... Now that you know about it, I'm willing to marry a little lady to show my responsibility. If you hate my poor family, then I can do it. ”
"Shut up for me!" Seeing that the more this kid spoke, the more out of tune he became, Master Jiang immediately kicked him over.
Where did he want to hear this? Obviously he had already reminded them just now—to be satisfied, and not to harm his daughter again. Outcome......
He turned to Mrs. Jiang with hatred: "This is the good daughter you raised! This is the good nurse you picked for her!"
Madame Chiang is also stupid now. "How can this be? Jiu Niangzi, didn't you say that you were with the county ...... that night" She hurriedly pounced on her daughter's shoulders with both hands, "Who you were with that night, you tell me clearly!"
Little Lady Jiang was also hit by this series of news, and her mind went blank. She was shaken desperately by her mother several times before she came back to her senses: "It's the county honorable! The only person who has always admired him is him, and he only regards the nurse's son as a brother, where would he do such a thing with him?"
"Little lady, have you forgotten? After you saw me that night, you told me to hide in your yard first, and then sneak out when the courtyard door opened the next morning. But in the middle of the night, I noticed that you had suddenly gone out, so I followed, and then I saw you enter the guest room. Not long after, a man came out of the guest room in a rage, but you were nowhere to be seen. I'm afraid you'll be bullied, so I'll go in and see. And then I saw you crying there. Jiang's mother and son hurriedly said.
"You drank and cried. I went up to persuade you, and you hugged me, saying that you liked me, and asked me not to let you down. You are so enthusiastic, how can I still withstand it? I still remember the words we said that night! If it weren't for the fear of being caught, I would have waited for you to wake up the next morning and take your hand to see your father and aunt. ”
"Heh, it turns out that it's the little lady Jiang who pretends to be crazy with wine!" Mu Jiaojiao listened, and finally suddenly realized.
Jiang Xiaoniang's body trembled, and her face turned pale.
"No—" she shouted, her body completely limp. "How can this be? How can it be him? No, you must have lied to me, lied to me!"
What else can they say now?
Don't talk about Mrs. Jiang, Master Jiang is about to collapse.
He hurriedly lifted his robe and knelt in front of Cui Pu: "County Zun, I want to sue the Jiang family mother and son for stealing my Jiang family's wealth and seducing the little girl!"
"Master, you can't! If you sue him, what will happen to the flesh and bones in the little lady's womb?" Mother Jiang hurriedly shouted.
As soon as she said this, Master Jiang's eyes immediately turned red: "You really know this!, say, are you just waiting for Jiu Niangzi to have a big belly, and we have no choice but to marry her to your family?"
"Master, my son and the little lady are sincere to each other. Mother Jiang avoided his eyes and muttered quietly.
Master Jiang sneered. Jiu Niangzi also said that she and the county respected each other sincerely, but does this matter have anything to do with the county honor?"
After that, he threw his hand at Cui Pu again: "At this time, it is absolutely inseparable from the Jiang family, and I also asked the county to take the mother and son into custody and torture them, thinking that my Jiang family was innocent!"
Your daughters are all three months pregnant, and the fetus is sitting firmly, so Shi Shiran took advantage of the young year to come to the door, and this mind is not innocent. As a result, now, is it still called innocent in front of Lao Tzu? Lao Tzu is the one who should tell you to return me an innocent person, okay?
Cui Pu roared wildly in his heart, but he had a serious look on his face: "The words of this mother and son have been heard in this county." This matter is indeed premeditated by the mother and son, and the plot to rob the head of the family and abduct the little lady of the main family is a very important matter, and the county must investigate it carefully. Come on, put Jiang's mother and son in prison and wait for trial!"
"Yes!" the headhunters said yes in unison, and hurriedly dragged Jiang's mother and son down.
Now, there are only five people left: Cui Pu, Mu Jiaojiao, Master Jiang, Mrs. Jiang and Little Lady Jiang.
The corners of Cui Pu's lips raised a light smile: "Now that there are no outsiders, shouldn't we also explain the previous misunderstanding?"
"You've already said that this is a misunderstanding, what else is there to say? Now that the culprit has been caught, and he has already admitted what he did, then this matter has nothing to do with you. It's the little girl who is confused, and she doesn't know that she did something wrong, and she almost wronged the county respect, so she is here to accompany you on behalf of the little girl. If you turn around, you will ask someone to send another thousand yuan, and continue to support the county's people's livelihood plan!"
Cui Pu bowed his head at this time: "Master Jiang, you must be tired, this county looks at Jiang Xiaoniang's face is very bad now, do you want to take her back to see the doctor first? Jiang's mother and son have been imprisoned, and they can be sentenced at any time, just see when you are free, and the county will hold a trial again." ”
He's got everything in order. But this kind of family ugliness, where can a court be tried? Master Jiang has the heart to cut Jiang's mother and son alive!
There were so many things in front of him, and his mind was also a mess. Now, I can only go back and sort things out first, and only when I have straightened out and figured out how to deal with it can I be cheeky enough to intercede with the county master.
Now, he can only hope that this new thousand guan can buy a county lord and be happy.
The family of three, who had originally come full of hope, left dejectedly. After returning home, it was naturally another chicken and dog jump.
And here, after dealing with this matter, Cui Pu quickly turned his head and smiled at Mu Jiaojiao: "Lady......"
Mu Jiaojiao turned her head and left.
Cui Pu hurriedly followed, and kept shouting: "Lady, lady, lady, lady......"
Mu Jiaojiao didn't seem to hear it, and went into the room by herself.
Cui Pu cheekily chased after him. It was easy to see Mu Jiaojiao in front of him stop, and he wanted to repeat his old tricks and stepped forward to rub and hug him.
Who knew that Mu Jiaojiao immediately turned around and glanced at him coldly. His hands and feet suddenly froze, and his movements froze in place.
Mu Jiaojiao said to Hongdou again: "Go and get me a washboard, the newer the better." ”
"Lady!" Cui Pu was suddenly dissipated.
Mu Jiaojiao turned her head coldly, still not saying a word to him. Cui Pu flattened his mouth and said pitifully: "I don't need this! I'm also a victim!"
Mu Jiaojiao snorted coldly, not bothering to pay attention to him.
Soon the red bean ran back, holding two or three washboards in his hand, all of which were new. "Lady, what do you think of these?"
Mu Jiaojiao casually ordered one and threw it in front of Cui Pu. "Kneel!"
Looking at the sharp serrations above, Cui Pu's knees have begun to hurt.
"Lady, shall we have a discussion?"
"To kneel, or not to kneel, you choose. Mu Jiaojiao only had a cold sentence.
Cui Pu immediately wilted.
"I'm on my knees, can't I kneel?"
So honestly, his knees weakened, and he knelt up in resignation.
