The county magistrate changed his career to selling private vegetables and sold them out

Chapter 21

Coming out of Qingfeng Academy, Jiangshan couldn't be calm for a long time.

She didn't expect that Mrs. Wu would be so open-minded. She didn't sympathize with her experience too much, nor did she brood over the unbearable past that happened to her. She just said calmly that she was so sorry.

But so what?Jiangshan is Jiangshan, Saburo is Saburo, not to mention that Jiangshan itself is not at fault, even if she is at fault, what does it have to do with Saburo?

She likes Saburo's cleverness, likes that he is thoughtful at a young age, and likes how he looks like a young adult. She just loves Saburo and doesn't want to see this child suffer.

Mrs. Wu's kindness was hard to refrain from, so Jiang Shan had to make an agreement with her that San Lang would stay at Wu's house before they lived in the town.

Having solved a big problem, Jiangshan was grateful and rejoiced in his heart, and at the same time made up his mind to move to the town as soon as possible.

Barbecue is different from seafood in sauce. Without the word of mouth of the restaurant, coupled with the limited geographical area, it is difficult to spread the reputation of Chuan Chuan.

However, before the gust of barbecue and skewers had time to blow out, before Jiang Shan knew about it, she got involved in a lawsuit for no reason.

When someone from the county yamen wanted to take her to the yamen for questioning, Jiao's mother was so anxious and scared that she almost fell ill on the spot.

Fortunately, the guard knew the name of Jiao Jia Erlang, so he comforted Jiao's mother and took Jiang Shan away.

When he walked out of the village, the wife of the village chief came out and jumped behind him and scolded him.

Only then did Jiang Shan know that the Laozhi seafood sold by the village chief’s wife’s younger brother had killed people, and confessed to Jiang Shan, the victim, that there was something wrong with her Laoju recipe, and people died from eating it.

The county government is more than 40 miles away from Huaigu Village. Although Jiang Shan was specially approved for a bullock cart considering that she was pregnant, she still vomited all the way.

The child has been three months old, and the hard flesh and bones in his belly have brought great inconvenience to Jiang Shan at this moment.

She took out all the copper coins on her body to do some work, and asked them to slow down, she and the child couldn't bear it.

The guard didn't make things difficult for her, and returned to the county office before dark.

It was impossible to try the case at night. Jiang Shan was taken to the prisoner's cell by the yamen servants, and she was given an extra shabby mattress and a cup of hot water that the prisoner didn't have.

I didn't even have dinner, because it was after dinner time.

Jiang Shan didn't have much appetite either, so she sat on the mattress and thought of countermeasures.

She couldn't be locked here for too long, even if she could bear it, the child in her stomach couldn't bear it.

Mother is under the care of Uncle Qiao, so don't worry for now; Sanlang is in Qingfeng Academy, the master allows him to go home once every ten days, but he can rest at home for half a day, and he will be back in three days, and she must go home within three days !
Jiang Shan didn't close her eyes all night, and when the yamen servant took her out the next day, she asked for a ladle of cold water to wash her face.

She has to be sober and calm enough.

In the county government office, the magistrate of Cao County sat in the lobby without much energy.Below, are the bitter master who died of her husband, the brother-in-law of the village head, and several villagers of Huaigu Village, the so-called plaintiffs and defendants.

The plaintiff is a woman in her 40s, surnamed Yin, who is covering her face and weeping.

When Jiang Shan was brought up, a "mighty" sounded in the lobby, which lasted for a long time.

"Who is coming, please report your name!" Cao Zhixian slammed the gavel and began to hear the case according to the procedure.

Jiang Shan imitated the appearance on TV and performed the official ceremony without any panic.

Cao Zhixian couldn't help but take another look at Jiangshan, and there was another crisp sound of a gavel.

"Jiang Shi, Wang San confessed that there was something wrong with your recipe for fish sauce and seafood, which caused death. You should be convicted!"

Jiang Shan yelled that she was wronged, and said that her seafood in Laozhi had not been sold separately recently, but only sold to Xianyun Pavilion and Linfu Building in the town. She has nothing to do, the shopkeeper of the restaurant can testify.

Cao Zhixian immediately sent someone to find the shopkeepers of the two restaurants.

Shopkeeper Qi and Aunt Hong came very quickly, proving that what Jiang Shan said was true.

Wang San yelled, "That soup is the recipe she told us, and everyone in the village can testify!"

Jiang Shan said sarcastically: "I don't know what recipe you use, how do you know my recipe? You think you can make it just because you have tasted my fish sauce seafood? I pray that the shopkeeper and Hong shopkeeper will sell it. Who do you think you are even if you don’t know my formula after you’ve been fishing for seafood for so long?”

Cao Zhixian is not an idiot either, as soon as he heard it, he knew that Wang San was messing around.

He immediately shouted: "Since you all know the formula, it's easy, take them down one by one to verify, and see if they can tell you!"

As soon as these words came out, Wang San immediately panicked, and concluded: "My lord, my lord, this soup is made by the people of Huaigu Village. The grass people are only responsible for selling money, and have nothing to do with the grass people!"

The villagers immediately realized that Wang San was going to throw the blame, and they would not recite it!
"My lord, Cao Min just went to buy seafood and came back, but I haven't touched it since then!"

"My lord, Caomin is in charge of cleaning, it's Xiaowu and the others who make the soup, it's none of Caomin's business!"

"My lord, everyone in the village knows the seasonings used by the grassroots for their soup. It cost a whole tael of silver! If those seasonings can eat the dead, I have to blame Lao Li in the grocery store!"

"Yes, yes, I have to find Lao Li!"

"Come here, go to the town to shop Lao Li..."

With a sound of "噗嗤", Jiang Shan couldn't hold back for a while, and laughed out loud.

Only then did Cao Zhixian react, and he couldn't help becoming angry from embarrassment. He grabbed the gavel and slapped it heavily, pointing at the people in the hall and yelling: "You are bold, and you dare to make sophistry! If you don't resort to the truth, I will definitely not forgive you lightly!"

Wang San and the villagers really panicked now, one by one they completely exposed each other's background.

Even the head of Huaigu Village was brought in.

The facts of the case are quite clear, and it is clear who is right and who is wrong.

The county magistrate said with a sullen face: "Take down Wang San and the gangsters in Huaigu Village and put them in prison! Although Jiang is not guilty, you are involved in this case after all. The cause of death of the deceased has not been found out yet, so you stay in the prison first." The county government will allow you to go home after the case is cleared up!"

Jiang Shan lowered his eyes and thought for a while, and wanted to say something else, Cao Zhixian waved his hand impatiently, and ran to the back office first.

The yamen servant took Jiang Shan to a side room in the backyard and sent a woman to guard her.

After all, he is no longer a suspect and can no longer go to jail.

Cao Zhixian hurried to the study room, bowed towards the door and saluted, wiped the sweat from his brow and said with a sneer, "Your official is so negligent, please forgive me, two noblemen!"

"Who are you? How many times have I told you that it is Mr. Li and Mr. Fu! I heard that Mr. Fu is in Guyang County, so I stopped by to have a look! It's just a table, you have been tossing so far, This son is still hungry!"

The young man who was talking impatiently waved the folding fan in his hand, his eyeballs almost rolled up to the sky.

The other young gentleman sitting on the right smiled lightly, and said to the magistrate Cao who was constantly wiping cold sweat: "Your Majesty Cao, there is no need to be so embarrassing. The seafood here is very delicious. Mr. Li has lived in the capital for a long time, so Mr. Cao might as well call someone else." Prepare a table of seafood and invite Mr. Li to taste it!"

Mr. Li grinned, and waved his fan towards Caozhi County, his face full of disgust.

The magistrate of Cao County breathed a sigh of relief, bowed to Fu Qiyuan, and retreated.
