Chapter 84
Third Aunt Wang was shocked: "What? I'm guilty too? What's my fault? I didn't sell the test questions? Besides, didn't it mean that I couldn't get the test questions? I didn't sell them before, so why am I also guilty? "

Qian Rui said coldly: "Whether there are test questions or not, let's talk about it. If you have the heart to resell the test questions and spread them around to destabilize the people's hearts, you will be arrested and beheaded if you violate the laws of the court! Come on, your family Are all the people involved? Who else knows about this? Anyone who knows about this and conceals it is an accomplice!"

"No, no, no." Third Aunt Wang saw that Qian Rui didn't look like he was joking, and when she heard that he was going to be arrested and beheaded, she became scared.She kept waving her hands, and suddenly knelt down in a panic, kowtowed and begged for mercy: "My lord, please spare my life! Please, my lord, please spare me my life! The woman really doesn't know, she won't dare again. No one in the woman's family knows , please forgive me..."

Seeing this, Mrs. Wang knelt down with a plop and cried, "My lord, please forgive me. It's all because of the ignorance of the little lady. It's all the fault of the little lady. The little lady thought it was just a joke, but she wanted the villagers Take a high look at me, the child's father and the rest of the Zhao family don't know about it! If adults want to arrest, just arrest the little woman alone! Don't arrest the child's father and my son!"

The two women kept crying and begging for mercy, but they didn't want too many people to know about it, so they controlled the volume, otherwise people would have been attracted.

Seeing that both of them were almost scared, Qian Rui snorted coldly and said, "Now I know I'm afraid? I've never seen anyone who is more stupid than you! Have you grown your brains? Even five-year-olds know it." You don’t even know about the matter! Ignorance is nothing, who made you so stupid and spread it around? Be honest! Who did you tell? They will all be arrested and beheaded to make the people angry! You two ignorant women are really hurting people!"

Mrs. Wang hurriedly said: "I didn't tell many people, but there are a few women in the village, including Chunhua's sister-in-law and Shi's sister..."

Mrs. Wang counted five or six people with her fingers, and then Third Aunt Wang also mentioned two or three people she passed on, and Qian Rui's face became darker and darker.

Finally, after explaining everything, the two women began to kowtow again to beg for mercy.

Qian Rui was also afraid that the noise here would attract more people, so he slowed down his tone a little and said, "Okay! For Master Zhao's sake, I'll give you a chance to make up for it!"

"Please tell me, my lord! The little lady must do it, she must do it!"

"Thank you for your kindness, my lord, I will listen to your lord..."

Mrs. Wang and Third Aunt Wang reacted quickly this time, and immediately kowtowed in agreement.

Qian Rui said coldly: "You have to calm down this matter in the shortest possible time! Anyone who believes this rumor, you must tell them the truth! Tell them, whoever dares to talk nonsense again will Spreading rumors is a serious crime of beheading!"

"Yes, yes, the little lady knows, and the little lady will never dare again!"

"Little lady must tell them clearly..."

"I only give you three days! After three days, I will send someone to conduct a thorough investigation. If any rumors reach my ears, neither you nor those people will be able to escape! They will all be arrested and beheaded!" Qian Rui It was another threat, and finally he angrily said, "Get lost! Be smarter when you speak in the future!"

Third Aunt Wang kowtowed three more times before getting up and staggering away.But Mrs. Wang still knelt on the ground and couldn't get up. Instead, she begged: "I beg the eldest master to be merciful, don't tell his second uncle... But sister, you are a good boy, don't tell your father, okay? I know I was wrong, I I will return all the money I received, and I will make it clear to them! I beg the young master to be merciful..."

Qian Rui frowned and thought for a while, then said: "For Sister Ran's sake, I won't tell my father about this for now. Get up first!"

Mrs. Wang didn't pay attention, only when Qian Rui agreed, she hurriedly kowtowed twice more before getting up from the ground.

An Ran looked at the flesh on Wang's forehead that was torn by the stones on the ground, and was still covered with mud and withered grass. She couldn't help but asked, "Auntie, when you go back, your uncle and older brothers and sisters saw the wound on your forehead. What do you want to say?"

When Wang heard An Ran mention the injury on her forehead, she felt a burning pain on her forehead. "I, I just said that I accidentally fell down just now."

An Ran nodded, then let her go for now!

Qian Rui carried An Ran back to the new house at the west end of the village, opened the courtyard door and walked in.

There was no one in the house, and naturally no lights were lit, but tonight was the [-]th, and the moonlight was excellent, so the courtyard was clearly visible.

Qian Rui put An Ran down, opened the door, took out the flint and lit the oil lamp, the two of them simply packed the luggage they brought, put on their jackets, and then sat down at the table to talk.

An Ran thought for a while, and then asked, "Brother, is it true that you don't intend to tell your lord about my aunt?" An Ran didn't know the court's laws very well, but she knew that Qian Rui's words just now must have been exaggerated. of.But from her point of view, this matter can be big or small.If you think about it at an older level, it's just like what Qian Rui said just now, even beheading is not an exaggeration; at a younger level, it's just a foolish village woman making a joke.

Qian Rui didn't answer An Ran's words. Instead, he hugged her to his lap and sat down, looked at her with a smile in his eyes, and praised her: "Sister Ran, I didn't expect you to be so smart. How do you know that there are no questions for the rural examination? out?"

An Ran raised her head to look at him, blinked her eyes, and said innocently and innocently: "My daughter guessed it. Could it be that my daughter's guess is wrong?"

Qian Rui was surprised, he thought Master Zhao had mentioned it sometime, but he didn't expect that it was the little girl who guessed it herself.How smart is this girl!When Qian Rui was excited, he couldn't help rubbing her hair, then lowered his head and kissed her on the forehead.

An Ran lowered her head and wanted to hide, but she still couldn't.She was a little annoyed in her heart, but she couldn't show it too much, she could only protest angrily: "The book says that men and women can't kiss each other, big brother can't kiss niece casually."

"Hehe, it's not that big brother sees that sister Ran is too smart and cute, so he can't help it for a while!" Seeing An Ran's angry look, Qian Rui also thought it was very cute.I wanted to touch her angry face again, but seeing her unkind eyes, I had no choice but to shrink back embarrassingly, and promised, "Okay, big brother promises you, I won't kiss casually in the future."
