Jinyi Music

Chapter 64

Mrs. Liu is also her daughter's marriage is approaching these days, and she has no time to look around. After eating, she asks her daughter to pick out fabrics, choose colors, and make wedding clothes. The sisters and aunts in the house all go to join in the fun. Miss Xiumei said that she had eaten too much and she wanted to walk to digest food and went to the garden.

Mou Biao felt that the case was expected to be overthrown, and he was very proud. He wrote down all his deliberations on the case in his study,

"After Mrs. Yao made a confession, he presented this thing in front of Mr. Fu Yin, hehe..."

Mou Biao laughed triumphantly, and Mou Hu said outside,
"Master, you've been running around all day. Are you hungry? Let's eat first!"

Mou Biao responded, put the few pages on the desk, and went out to eat.

On the second day, Mou Biao went out early, but went to Jia's noodle stall first, looking for Jia Silian to tell the story, both of them felt that Yao was very suspicious,

"But how to get her to confess?"

Jia Silian thought for a while and said,
"I thought about it all night yesterday, but I came up with an idea!"

Mou Biao's eyes lit up,
"Oh...what's the idea, let me hear it?"

Jia Silian leaned over and whispered for a while, Mou Biao nodded repeatedly.

"This method is good!"

After dark that day, when Jia Jincheng came home from the Yamen, he went to Sun's house again. The widow of the Sun's family was very surprised to see him coming.
"Jia Wuzuo, you...you..."

Why are you here again? Aren't you afraid that the vicious woman in your family will make trouble again?

She was terrified!

Jia Jincheng seemed to see her doubts, and replied,
"The case has changed. My mother-in-law is recuperating at home now!"

The widow of the Sun family heard that the case had changed, so she hurriedly invited Mrs. Yao out.

"Cousin, come out and meet Jia Wuzuo!"

When Yao came out, Jia Jincheng said to the two of them,

"Your Excellency reported the case to the Ministry of Criminal Justice. After Master Shangshu learned about it, he only said that there was one dead body and two lives in this case. The death of the deceased was miserable. The murderer's methods were very cruel, and the people were very angry. He must deal with it seriously and quickly, so there is no need to wait until after the autumn. It will be cut next month!"

"what……"

The two were very surprised when they heard this, and Yao Shi was about to faint in a sway, Jia Jincheng said,

"Landlord Lai entrusted me with a message from the jailer in the prison, saying that he knew that his death was approaching, and he wanted to see his wife and children for the last time..."

After all, he apologized to Yao Shi,
"I can't do anything about this. I can only help you for the last time. Tonight you go to the prison to meet me. I'm afraid it will be..."

After saying that, he shook his head with sympathy, and Yao shi burst into tears.

"The head of the house..."

Jia Jincheng sighed again and again, persuading her,
"This is not the time to cry, it's still early, let's find a way to get him something to eat, and let him have one last home-cooked meal!"

After he said this, Yao cried even more fiercely, and the widow of the Sun family persuaded her,

"Cousin, don't cry, it's getting late, let's do what Jia Yuzuo said, and cook a meal for my cousin-in-law as soon as possible!"

It's getting dark and there's no place to buy meat, so I can only look at what else is in the house, so that he can go on the road with peace of mind after eating his last meal!
Jia Jincheng Road,

"You prepare at home first, and I will wait for you at the entrance of the alley in an hour!"

The widow of the Sun family nodded, and Yao was still crying uncontrollably. Jia Jincheng sighed and turned around to go out. An hour later, the two came out together. The widow of the Sun family carried a bamboo basket on her arm, her face pale. Seeing Jia Jincheng who was waiting at the entrance of the alley, Mrs. Yao stepped forward and saluted.
"Thank you Jia Wuzuo!"

"Let's go!"

Jia Jincheng first got into the carriage that had been called for a long time ago, and the three of them went to the Yamen together, and Jia Jincheng led them to the front of the prison, where the prison guard blocked the way,
"Jia Wuzuo, you know the rules here. This criminal has already been sentenced to death, so he can only go in alone to visit him!"

With a sad face, Yao took the bamboo basket from the widow of the Sun family, and carried the bamboo basket into the prison alone.

There is not much difference between the prison at night and the prison during the day, both are dark, bloody and stench, but in Yao's view, the prison at night is always a little more eerie, the more you walk, the more chill you feel, She followed the jailer to the door of Lai Dongsheng's cell, and the jailer yelled inside,
"Lai Dongsheng, your family is here to see you!"

There was the rattling sound of iron chains in the dark cell, but no one came out for a long time, the jailer laughed and said,

"My lord has gone through the hall again today, I'm afraid he won't have much energy now..."

Yao shi immediately burst into tears when he heard this, rushed to the prison door and shouted,
"The head of the house... the head of the house... the child's father..."

The jailer said impatiently,
"What do you call it? Killing for life is justified. His case is one dead body and two dead. If he doesn't die, whoever dies. Don't cry and howl here. My lord, I'm going to take a nap!"

After saying that, he spat, turned and walked out.

"For Jia Wuzuo's sake, I'll give you half an hour. When the time comes, come out by yourself!"

This room went outside, and slammed the door of the passageway. Seeing him walking away, Yao rushed over to look inside the cell door desperately.
"The head of the house... the head of the house..."

Lai Dongsheng in the darkness moved his body, and finally hummed,
"You... are you here?"

His voice was extremely hoarse, and Yao shi began to cry,
"Master, what a crime you have suffered!"

Lai Dongsheng didn't speak, just gasped for breath, and answered after a while,
"You... what did you bring?"

Mrs. Yao hurriedly took out all the things in the bamboo basket, but nothing happened. She only had a small bowl of rice, a small bowl of bacon and a small pot of wine. He stretched out a hand, the back of which was covered with blood scabs, and grabbed a piece of meat in the bowl with his dirty and black fingers. After retracting, the sound of chewing came from the darkness.

"This smell...is it made by you?"

Lai Dongsheng asked, and Yao cried,
"I brought it from home for my cousin..."

Lai Dongsheng hummed, reached out and groped to pinch the jug in his hand, took a sip, and continued,
"I didn't kill..."

Yao cried,

"I... I know you are wronged..."

"Oh...it's useless to say these things now, the official said that I killed people, and I killed them..."

With a hoarse voice, Lai Dongsheng laughed twice,
"I'm the one who's sorry for you. I'm the one who deserves it..."

Yao shi was crying so hard that he knelt down on the ground, leaning his head against the door, pulled his sleeves to cover his mouth,

"Ugh……"

Lai Dongsheng sighed again,

"I know... Qiao Niang was killed by you..."

Yao's crying was choked, and she slowly raised her head. Under the dim light, she had a pale face with strange expressions, including shock, fear, guilt, relief, and all kinds of complex expressions. All the emotions were kneaded together, and the expression on the whole face was very weird, Lai Dongsheng sighed again,

"Hey... I don't blame you, it's my fault... I'm the one who hurt you... This is only for the two of us, don't worry... I won't tell the official..."

After a pause, he said,
"After I die, you sell all the yards in the city and go back to the village to live a good life with the children. Just remember to burn some paper money for me during the worship!"

Yao stayed for a long time, and after a long while, he slowly responded,

"Master, I didn't intend to harm you..."

Lai Dongsheng Road,

"I know...I know...but I don't understand, you killed her, who is the man in that room?"

Yao shi lowered his head for a while, as if he was recalling the events of that day, and said slowly,

"...that man is Qiao Niang's husband..."

Lai Dongsheng was dumbfounded,

"Isn't it the wild man Qiao Niang hooked up with outside?"

Yao shook his head,

"The matter between you and Qiao Niang in the city was told by Lai Wu's mother in the village when she came into the city and saw it. I came to make trouble with you, but you just said that people were blind to you and refused to admit it...but I knew you were doing it." You lied to me, I often came to the city in those days, just to keep an eye on you and prevent you from getting entangled with that vixen again..."

Lai Dongsheng replied,
"I... I originally planned to stop interacting with her!"

Yao nodded,

"I know...you left her cold for a while...and then she came to you again when she was pregnant, and you just...brought her home..."

Speaking of this, two more lines of tears flowed down, and Lai Dongsheng also began to cry,

"At that time, she said that she had my flesh and blood in her stomach. If I didn't admit it, she would take the child and jump into the river...I...I really can't bear that child..."

Yao Shi listened, his old face gradually twisted, and he sneered at the dark place in the prison,

"Lai Dongsheng, you stupid ass, we have been husband and wife for many years, why don't you think about it, why didn't we have another child after we gave birth to three sons?"

Lai Dongsheng was stunned and did not finish, Yao continued,
"You forgot, that year when you were raising a donkey in the village, you were kicked by the donkey... You passed out, and I asked the doctor in the city to heal you, and the doctor said that you hurt your children and grandchildren, From now on, even if you can have intercourse, you won’t be able to have children..."

As Yao shi spoke, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he said in a hateful voice,
"I was afraid of losing your face, so I kept silent. You just treat me as an old man who can't give birth to children..."

Lai Dongsheng's voice trembled,
"You...you knew from the very beginning that the child in Qiao Niang's womb was not mine..."

"Humph!"

Yao replied with a snort,
"Of course I knew it. That day I took advantage of you to go out, so I went to find Qiao Niang. I originally wanted to expose her deceitful tricks, and then drove her out. I didn't expect that she would give me money when I went. A dismounted, kept calling her sister, and said that you promised to give the courtyard in the city to their mother and son..."

Speaking of this, the muscles on Yao's face twitched fiercely, and his eyes stared fiercely at the dark place,
"There are two yards in the city, one is my dowry, the other was originally my brother's, but my brother was short-lived and died first, and he had no descendants, so he gave the yard to me when he died. You said that there are too many real estate properties under the name of women, which are coveted by others, so they are under your name. These are all belongings of our Yao family. It’s just the person who raised your family. You still want to give it to your concubine, Yao Dongsheng...your conscience was eaten by dogs!"
