Portable Space: Reborn Little Couple

Chapter 349 Atonement
For the sake of money, the nurses did not report on Uncle Tang's family, but they secretly had the idea of ​​extorting for a long time.

But what Uncle Tang didn't know was that it wasn't only the nurses around him who knew the truth of the matter, the bodyguard thugs hired by Tang Yanxiu also knew about it.

Although they didn't know Uncle Tang, it didn't prevent them from reporting to the officials that this was not an accident, but a man-made tragedy.

Originally, if it was just an accident caused by overturning an oil lamp, even if the government would intervene, it might not necessarily be a thorough investigation.But once someone reported the crime, after a little investigation, it was confirmed that before the fire ignited, the people in the nearby dwellings heard the fighting and screams, and if they searched in the ruins of the inn, they could still find some physical evidence.

At that moment, the county magistrate of Sang County sent people to rush to the Sheriff's Mansion of Chongming County to report the case.

With such a big incident, and the fact that the county government office in Sang County was also destroyed in the fire, this matter is no longer something that a small county magistrate like him can handle.

What's more, the house of Sangxian County Cheng's own house was also burned down, and many of his family members were injured, and the most serious ones are still in danger.

And under such circumstances, Tang Yanxiu and Mo Qianrui left the space and went straight to the Sang County Yamen.

Even though the county government office has been destroyed, it is not difficult to find someone who can take care of it.

He told the other party everything he knew. The other party was just a small official in the county yamen. Hearing such news, especially knowing that the culprit of the fire was an official from Kyoto County, he felt in his heart. While shocked, he immediately informed the magistrate of Sang County.

After all, Tang Yanxiu and Mo Qianrui came from a society ruled by law, and they were also very self-aware. The situation was so big that they could not handle it alone.Therefore, they chose to report to the official.

However, there was one thing that neither of them expected.

Sang County is a poor place. Although the area of ​​Sang County is not small, it also has a large population.

After such a big incident, the common people, especially those who lived nearby, basically rushed towards the county government.They didn't want to ask for an explanation, but they instinctively chose to approach the officials, so that if the money and food for disaster relief arrived in a few days, they would be able to get them as soon as possible.

Unexpectedly, when Tang Yanxiu told the officials of the county yamen about this matter, she didn't realize that she had to avoid everyone.

Almost as soon as the official who got the news was going to inform the magistrate of Sang County, the people outside the county government had already rioted.

Riots, especially refugee riots, are terrifying no matter where they are or what dynasty they are in.

If it is because of the lack of harvest after autumn, some preparations can be made in advance. If it is not possible, as long as the relief money and food are in place as soon as possible, it will be relatively easy to appease the refugees.To put it bluntly, refugees are not evil people, they just want to survive.Unless it is absolutely necessary, the refugees will not attack the county office or engage in other riots.

But this time, it was completely different from the previous situation!
There was no warning, and in addition to the damage to money, food and houses, so many people were burned to death.

You know, in a poor place like Sang County, there are people who have lived here for generations.Naturally, almost every household is somewhat related by marriage.

In this way, the pain of losing money, losing home, and losing loved ones all piled up, but in vain I heard about the culprit of the fire...

Don't underestimate the ability of human flesh searches in this era, Tang Yanxiu has already spoken clearly, and Tang Yanxiu invited three matchmakers to interrogate, and all three matchmakers were among the refugees without exception.

When the magistrate of Sang County arrived after hearing the news, Uncle Tang and his nurses were blocked in the house he had bought earlier.

……

"What did you say? It has been leveled? What about that person?"

The magistrate of Sang County didn't doubt Tang Yanxiu's words, mainly because those bodyguards who were previously employed by Tang Yanxiu turned around to look for them after they were sure they were safe.Hearing everyone's convincing testimonies against the Tang family's uncle, the magistrate of Sang County would choose to let the government servants bring him back for questioning even if he was not completely sure of the culprit.

But I never thought that the servants did not bring people.

It's just because those angry common people are much faster than the yamen servants.When the yamen servants rushed to the house that Tang's uncle had bought earlier, although it was not damaged by the fire, it was razed to the ground by the common people.

What was even more frightening was Uncle Tang and those nursing homes who were in the house at that time.

All dead.

These are the original words of the yamen servants, and they are also simplified or should be said to beautify the facts.

To be precise, the uncles of the Tang family and those nursing homes were beaten to death by the angry common people, even if the uncles of the Tang family yelled that they were willing to give up their family property, even if the nursing homes risked their lives to fight with the common people, The final outcome did not change at all.

"Master Xian Cheng, may I ask if there were other people in the house at that time? For example, a woman who was about 30 years old, and a boy who was six or seven years old?"

Even though she hated Tang's uncle so much, Tang Yanxiu still couldn't bear to hear such a tragic ending.

Well, maybe the uncle of the Tang family really gets what he deserves, so...even the aunt of the Tang family is also at fault, at least his little cousin hasn't done anything wrong, right?
The magistrate of Sang County questioned the Yamen servant in detail in front of Tang Yanxiu's words, but the information he got was not clear.

In fact, the yamen servants didn't see the details of what happened at all, and when they arrived, everything was over.In addition to the houses that were razed to the ground, and the scene of the tragedy full of blood and mutilated corpses.

On the contrary, there was a bold yamen servant who secretly approached Tang Yanxiu after the incident and told him one thing.

Although the angry common people have lost their reason, they have not lost their conscience.What the yamen servant wanted to say was that there should have been no little boys injured at that time, but it was unclear about the woman who was about 30 years old.

"Yan Xiu, what are we going to do next?"

Even though he knew that Tang Yanxiu's cousin hadn't died, it was completely unrealistic to really find a six or seven-year-old boy in the huge Sang County.

Or, even if you are lucky enough to find it, how should you arrange it?

Tang Yanxiu understood what Mo Qianrui meant, and after a long silence, she finally made up her mind.

"Xiaorui, although my uncle is the culprit in this matter, I feel that I have a certain responsibility. It's me, I'm too trusting, I thought he wouldn't be so stupid!" Tang Yanxiu didn't understand Tang's uncle. Why did he choose such a ruthless method? He couldn't even understand why Uncle Tang insisted on putting him to death.

From a legal point of view, Tang Yanxiu is the legitimate heir of the Tang family, and the eldest son and grandson of the eldest son can inherit at least [-]% of the family business, which is clearly stipulated in the law.

From a rational point of view, Tang Yanxiu was the uncle's nephew, the only flesh and blood left by his dead brother.

How cruel is it to be so cruel?
If it was said that Tang Yanxiu originally thought that the previous things were done by the Tang family's aunt, but after experiencing this monstrous fire, he no longer believed it.

Even though the Tang family's aunt had intervened in the past, the real culprit behind the scenes could only be the Tang family's uncle!

"Yan Xiu, what do you want to do?"

Compared to Tang Yanxiu's unbearable desolation, Mo Qianrui's mood was much calmer.

After all, no matter in her previous life or in this life, she didn't know Tang's uncle. Although she would be angry, she would not feel sad.

"It's very simple. When my uncle dies, I should inherit the property of the Tang family. Of course, if my cousin is still alive, he can also inherit part of it. However, I think even if he is found, he should give up the inheritance The family property should only be atonement for his father."

"What about after inheriting?"

Mo Qianrui knew very well that Tang Yanxiu was not greedy for money.Under the current circumstances, the Tang family's property was specifically mentioned, which must have a deep meaning.

"Of course it's a donation. Or, it can also be said to be atonement for my uncle!"
