Yipin Qiao Nongfei

Chapter 38
Su Yunhai's eyeballs turned wildly, and his mind was confused, but Su Yunyang was thinking seriously, and soon his eyes lit up, he stood up straight and shouted: "I know the sixth uncle, we mentioned this man the other day. The county magistrate has been in office for less than three months, and the new official has handled several beautiful cases before the three fires are burnt out."

"What does this have to do with Third Sister?" Su Yunhai was still in a daze: "Could it be that the county magistrate can help Third Sister with a few beautiful cases?"

"Of course it's more than that. Brother, think about what the boss and Mr. Fang said. County magistrate Lin is over 40 years old. He only has a wife and a daughter under his knees. He is upright and upright. Even we know about Widow Fan's injustice."

"That widow Fan who was wronged by her husband's family for adultery and murder of her husband? Yes, I know about it and say that she was wronged. The magistrate Lin found loopholes in the case under strict investigation. That's why she was wronged. Then... ...what does it matter?"

"Magistrate Lin is upright and tolerant of women. Today, the third sister was injured and bled, and went to file a complaint. He asked the reason, how could he let the two scoundrels go? We finally don't have to worry about this winter."

When Su Yunyang said this, he couldn't help bowing his head in shame, and murmured: "We were really wrong this time. The third sister didn't rush out in a reckless way. She just rushed out to solve the hidden dangers in the family. Alas! She has such courage, we actually I can't shrink back..."

Su Yunhai also lowered his head.Only then did Su Mingjiang's complexion completely soften, and he said in a deep voice: "Okay, since you know the reason, you can all go back. As for the third girl, whether you want to apologize or not is up to you."

"I want to apologize, this time we are indeed sorry for the third sister." Su Yunyang said sincerely, then turned to Su Yunfan and said, "Second brother, I will go to the entrance of the village with you and wait. Take it back."

"I can do this alone."

Su Yunfan scratched his head, but saw Su Yunyang said seriously: "I still have resentment towards the third sister in my heart, but this time, I admire her very much. This apology does not mean that I can reconcile with her..."

"Enough, you are a man, why are you so narrow-minded."

Su Yishan hurriedly stopped his second son, thinking: This child is good in everything, but he is too upright, you just keep such words in your heart, why do you have to say it?It made your sixth uncle unhappy.

While thinking about it, he peeked at Su Mingjiang's complexion out of the corner of his eye, but saw the sixth uncle holding a teacup and drinking tea silently, his complexion...should be pretty good?

"I heard that the third girl's face was covered with blood, her arms and neck were covered with bruises, she knelt in the hall, and cried for half an hour. Even those hard-hearted government servants were all moved."

Leaning on the couch, Tian slowly peeled an orange while listening to the girls telling her the latest gossip.When she heard this, she couldn't help but pause, and said with a smile: "It's just that I have suffered a great grievance, so it's enough to explain the matter clearly. How can I talk about it for half an hour? It's not a big case with extensive ties. .”

Qingguo, a little girl sitting by the smoke cage, said quickly: "It's true that those two rascals did a lot of evil, and it's nothing more than stealing chickens and dogs. More than half of the girls and daughters-in-law in Wufeng Village, and even the neighboring villages, were frightened by them and dare not go out, so That's all the three girls said."

"This is nonsense. The third girl is willing to come forward and sue. How can she gossip about others? We women are most afraid of losing our reputation. As the saying goes, starving to death is a small matter, but injustice is a big thing. If the third girl In order to sue the two rascals, all the women in the village and even the neighboring villages were pulled out, so what if she wins? No one will appreciate her, and people will only hate her, just because she is a bad person."

Yanzi, the big girl on the other side, shook her head to retort, Qingguo had nothing to say, she pouted and said: "If you don't talk about this, why can you talk for half an hour?"

"I have a cousin who is working in the yamen. He happened to be there when I went home yesterday to deliver the clothes. My mother asked him what happened. It's not what you said. The three girls mainly learned from what happened to her. According to my cousin, what she said really touched people's hearts. If I hadn't listened to her words, I wouldn't have known that it was so difficult for women to survive in this world. It was precisely because of this that Lin County was moved. Order, the two rascals were arrested and put on the shackles for public display, and sentenced to one and a half years in prison."

Tian put the peeled oranges on the table, and said softly, "Put the shackles on public display? I was sentenced for a year and a half, which is indeed a heavy punishment. From now on, these rascals in the county may all restrain themselves. "

"If that's the case, it's the merit of the third girl. The women in this county, especially the widows, should be very grateful to her."

The voice fell, and a voice outside the door said: "Yes. As many women appreciate her, more men will hate her, and those old masters will criticize her even more. Girls must be self-respecting and self-improving, but like It's not a good thing for her to act too aggressively like this."

"Master is back."

The maids in the room all stood up, only to see Shen Yuanxi walk in with the door curtain raised, with a book rolled up in his hand.

Tian hurriedly got down from the couch, and said with a smile, "Why did you come back early today? The teachers in the school are getting more and more relaxed."

Shen Yuanxi smiled and said: "These days are riding and hunting courses, which have nothing to do with the masters. After practicing for a few days, the gentleman who taught riding and archery took us to the suburban forest. Fortunately, the forest is full of water and grass, and the prey Quite a few, we shot dozens of pheasants and rabbits, all of them were very fat, I brought two back and handed them over to the kitchen for tidying up, and we will have pheasant soup tonight."

"You only shot two?" Tian's expression was condensed: "Your riding and archery skills have not fallen after all these years, why are you pulling your hips like this this year? Could it be that you are afraid of showing off and being jealous?"

"When have I ever been afraid of this?" Shen Yuanxi smiled, and helped Tian to sit down on the couch, while he sat opposite him: "I and Fang Xuesong hunted the most prey today. I originally shot a fox and used it with my father. According to the method taught, the arrow passed through the fox's eyes and passed through the head without damaging the fur at all. Unfortunately, it was a three-flowered fox. If it’s worth something, I’ll trade it with him. When I’m free in winter, I’ll hunt a red or white fox and make a fox scarf for my mother.”

"I'm not going out, so why do you want this?" Tian shook her head and smiled, then asked in doubt, "So where did your prey go? Why did you only bring two back?"

"Our family doesn't like wild game very much, so we went to Su's house to have a rest after hunting. I gave them all the prey, and only brought back two pheasants. Their family has a large population, and they finished eating two or three meals, which is better than ours. The kitchen stinks."
