Chapter 314

The leader heard the old lady say that this is Yu Wen's house, looked at the people dressed differently in front of him, and said, "You are Yu Wen, right?"

"I'm Yu Wen. I don't know what's important for you, the officials and grandmas." Even if Yu Wen thought that it was the other owner of the cake shop who sued her, she still had a little fantasy in her heart at this moment, guessing that those big shots were like this. Many, how can there be time to take care of their small shop.

The leading yamen servant Zai Yu Wen said yes, and immediately waved to the yamen servant who came with her and said "take away".

"Grandma Guan, Grandma Guan, you can't take my daughter away! I don't know what my second child did wrong, you have to take her away." Old Mrs. Yu cried.

It wasn't just Mrs. Yu crying alone, Yu Wen's wife, Lang Zi, also cried when they saw their wife (mother) being taken away by the government servants.

The leading yamen servant looked at the crying man, only to see that the man was wearing clothes that were patchworked out of rags.

She despised Yu Wen for a moment, she was ordered by an adult to come out to do things, she still knew something, Yu Wen was greedy for so much money from the cake shop, and he didn't even take some back home to honor his parents, he was alone in the city .

The leading yamen servant looked at the mud house of Yu Wen's family, and then at the group of crying men. He didn't need to guess to know that the family might be disbanded.

Yu Wen has embezzled so much money from the cake shop, it is impossible for the owner of the cake shop to let Yu Wen go just like this, and he will definitely let Yu Wen not only return the embezzled money, but also fear that he will be jailed.

And when she came here, she heard from a sister in the yamen servant who had a good relationship with Yu Wen in private that Yu Wen used the stolen money to raise a concubine in the city.

"Hey" the leading yamen servant sighed, she also came from the farm, she knows that it is not easy for farmers to save money, if this is what the sister said, if Yu Wen's crimes are proven, the Yu family may not be able to afford the cake As for the money from the store, as for the person raised outside, it is better not to let him run away with the money, how can one expect an outside room to come out with money to help.

No matter how everyone in the Yu family cried and shouted, and how Yu Wen resisted saying that the yamen servants arrested people indiscriminately, Yu Wen was still taken to the yamen by the yamen servants in front of the villagers.

After Li Yi and the others went to the yamen, Fang Qing simply arranged some things for Zhou Laoer, and then went to the yamen to listen to the case.

After Yu Wen was brought to the yamen and the county magistrate opened the court, Fang Qing signaled Li to report Yu Wen's crimes one by one. What is more serious about the guests is that they took away a full 6000 taels of silver from the cake shop during his tenure.

Along the way, Yu Wen was thinking about how she would find an excuse to get rid of the crime when she followed the yamen servants to the yamen. She was taken to the court by the yamen servants, and she saw a woman in white clothes standing with her hands behind her back, seeing the expressionless woman, She only knew that she was like an ant in the eyes of the opposite person.

Listening to the person standing in the middle of the courtroom with fists folded stating what she has done, there is a glimmer of hope in her heart, she just wanted to call out that she was wronged, but before she could say a word, she saw the other party take out the account book from the cake , handing it over to the adults, without giving her a chance to refute at all.

The county magistrate of Huiyang received the account book handed over by the master, and saw that the account book was clearly written; it was clear how much money Bai Yu Wen took away every month, and among them, Yu Wen used the money to buy it in the city A house.

The county magistrate did not expect Yu Wen, a peasant girl, to be able to steal so much money from the cake shop.

Your Excellency has read the ledger, and under the evidence of Fang Qingren, Yu Wen is not allowed to refute too much, so he immediately sentenced Yu Wen, saying: "Yu Wen, a native of Yujia Village in Huiyang, abused his power to steal while he was the manager of the Sunshine Cake Shop Take 6000 taels of silver from the cake shop, and now the judge sentenced Yu Wen to return the stolen silver immediately, and sentenced Yu Wen to 20 years in prison, and Yu Wen ignored the law of stealing in our dynasty, and sentenced to another [-] boards of punishment."

After Yu Wen was taken away, all members of the Yu family hurriedly followed to the Yamen to see if the matter was true or not.

Everyone in Yujia Village knew about Yu Wen being taken away by the yamen servants. Yu Wen's parents, elder sister and younger sister were going to come to the yamen, and the people from the village who joined in the fun naturally followed.

They heard the owner of the cake shop report Yu Wen's crimes just now, everyone gasped in their hearts, and each said in their hearts: "My dear, Yu Wen actually took 6000 taels of silver from the cake shop, 6000 taels, then what?" But it’s a whole 6000 taels!” The crowd didn’t have a tael of silver in their bags, and they couldn’t imagine how much money 6000 taels contained, and if the 6000 taels were exchanged for the copper plates they often used, they didn’t know if they could keep it in their homes. get off.

Mrs. Yu, who was standing at the gate of the court with the villagers to watch the case, heard the magistrate's verdict, and shouted: "Heaven, I am wronged, my lord, my son is wronged."

When he cried, the children of Yu Wenfu Lang who followed him also cried.

The county magistrate looked at the villagers making trouble in the court, and slammed the gavel on the table with a heavy "slap" and said: "Presumptuous, how can you make mistakes in the court."

When the crying men of the Yu family heard this voice, they subconsciously stopped crying.

It's just that they thought that their daughter (wife-head, mother) would go to jail in the future, and they complained again.

The county magistrate picked up the gavel and slapped it heavily on the table, saying: "Based on the witnesses and material evidence, what is wrong with Yu Wen, you are continuing to disturb the court, this magistrate will sentence you to the crime of ignoring yourself. "

Yu Wen is not a kind person. When the adults sentenced her, he immediately thought of confessing the person who let her do things.

Just as she was about to speak out, she heard the voices of her parents and husband crying, and her restless heart, which was trying to pull others into the water just now, immediately calmed down.

The background of the other party's family is not comparable to theirs. Their family is just an ordinary farmer's family. If she drags her into the water, the other party's people will definitely trouble her family, and it may result in a broken family.

She has already made such a big mistake because of her inner grievance, and she will spend all day in prison. At this time, she has a little kindness in her heart and doesn't want her family to be entangled by the other party.

Thinking this way, Yu Wen let go of his inner reluctance, and had the last ounce of consideration for his family in his heart, so he confessed all his sins without saying anything.

After dealing with Yu Wen's matter, the rest is where the other five younger sisters in the store go.

In terms of these young ladies, apart from the surplus, it can be said that the other four young ladies have never taken any money from the store. At most, they have received the remaining rewards, such as cakes from the store, and took them back for their family members to eat.

It can also be said that these people deserved what they deserved. They knew that the aunt and nephew of the Yu family were not good people, and they still worked with each other. These young ladies were sentenced and did not deserve sympathy.

It was also these people who did not report their knowledge and caused serious losses to the store. Fang Qing did not intend to let them go.

So these people were sentenced to [-] years in prison in addition to being sentenced to return the silver taels she usually took to spend, and the punishment of the other four younger sisters was also indispensable. How many cakes did the four younger sisters take from the shop , Everything was converted into silver taels and returned to the store, and each was sentenced to three years in prison.

The shopkeeper of Fang Qing's cake shop, the case of stealing with the younger sister was settled in this way.

After the incident, Fang Qing specially gave the county magistrate a set of four treasures of the study.
