Chapter 117 must be delivered to Lord Zhou, and ask him to avenge our family!

On this day, the shop did not close until the end of the afternoon. Just as Chen Xinghe was finishing school, the family drove back together in an ox cart and a horse carriage.

Chen Xingyun had already calculated the accounts and was grinning from ear to ear.

Today's net income is more than thirty taels of silver, and that's because of a 10% discount.

Once things settle down and she can earn a few hundred coins or taels of silver every day, she will be satisfied.

If she continued like this, she would soon be able to pay back the one hundred taels her mother had lent her.

Of course she hadn't used up all the one hundred taels, but she planned to pay it back once she had saved some money.

"Second sister is really amazing."

Chen Xinghe showed some admiration, but it was a pity that he couldn't see it with his own eyes today.

Chen Xingyun smiled sheepishly: "We only sold so much today because of the grand opening. I don't think we'll be able to sell so much tomorrow."

"That's pretty impressive, after all, it's my first time doing business."

"How are you, second brother? How was your time at the academy today?"

"It's pretty good. Although I haven't learned some of the content before, I've read the book before, so I can understand it."

"Second brother, you are really amazing."

The brother and sister flattered each other, making Xiao Ying and others laugh.

The family returned home happily, unaware that something big had happened in the county again.

It turned out that Wei Liang announced the results of the investigation early this morning. He closed the case by accusing the bandits from Heifengzhai of revenge and killing the county magistrate and Zhou Tianci, and sentenced all the bandits to immediate execution.

More than a dozen bandits were executed at noon, and the onlookers cheered.

Without this group of bandits, it will be safer to travel to the provincial capital in the future, and we no longer have to worry about being robbed on the way.

In addition, Wei Liang also announced the crimes of the former county magistrate Qian Qingrong: corruption and bribery, abuse of power for personal gain, oppression of the people, collusion between officials and businessmen, and more than ten other counts.

In the end, all his property was confiscated and his family was exiled to the northern border.

Only then did the people realize that the county magistrate was not a good person. They threw rotten eggs and vegetable leaves at Qian Qingrong's family and praised Wei Liangze as a living justice.

As Qian Qingrong was investigated, many people who had bribed him were also found out, including the Zhou family of Manxiangyuan and Mr. Zhao from Hongye Town.

Upon closer investigation, it was discovered that these two families had committed many evil deeds, including many homicides.

Wei Liang contacted the victims and asked them to report the case. Finally, Zhou Wang, Zhao Yuanwai and others were thrown into prison and sentenced to execution in the autumn.

Naturally, all the property of the two families was confiscated, and all the family members were imprisoned. Depending on the severity of the crime, they were sentenced to various terms, ranging from several years to execution in the autumn. The servants were sold back to pawnshops.

From then on, there was no more Manxiangyuan in the entire Yun'an County, and the four major restaurants in the county town became only three. It can be said that the situation was unpredictable.

"That bitch Xiao Ying killed my son and implicated my entire family. Even if I, Zhou Wang, were to become a ghost, I would never let her go!"

In the prison, Zhou Wang had his hair disheveled, his heart full of resentment, and was furious.

Everyone said that Zhou Tianci was killed by bandits, and even Wei Liang made such a verdict, but he didn't believe it!

Because he knew about the conflicts between his son and Xiao Ying, and he also knew that the vicious woman had attacked their people before.

One time it was Yang Huai, and the other time it was Liu Lai Zi, but unfortunately he had no evidence.

That woman is definitely not an ordinary village woman. She must be a hidden master who has deceived everyone.

He hated himself so much. He hated that he hadn't paid attention to this matter earlier and hadn't gotten rid of the other party earlier, which led to his family being destroyed.

If Xiao Ying had not killed his son and the county magistrate, the higher-ups would not have been invited to investigate, they would not have been implicated by Qian Qingrong, and those things would not have been brought to light.

All this is because of that damn woman!

Thinking of this, he became even more angry and grabbed Yu Qian's hand tightly.

"My Zhou family has treated you well. You were driven away early this time and were not implicated. I beg you to do me a favor. You must send this thing to the capital."

"Remember, you must personally deliver it to Lord Zhou Hongzhou, the Shaoqing of the Dali Temple, and ask him to avenge our family!"

He placed a jade ring in Yu Qian's hand, almost in a pleading manner, and placed the last hope of his family on Yu Qian and this ring.

Yu Qian was in a complicated mood. He never expected that the huge Zhou family would end up like this and even began to beg a small man like him.

"I will always remember the kindness that Master and the Zhou family have shown me. I will never forget it. Yu Qian swears here that I will personally deliver the gift to Master Zhou and will never let Master down."

The Zhou family of Manxiangyuan is a branch of the Zhou family in the capital. This is no secret in Yun'an County, otherwise the Zhou family would not have become a famous wealthy family in Yun'an County.

The person in charge of the Zhou family in the capital is called Zhou Hong, who is the Shaoqing of the Dali Temple. Although he is only a fourth-rank official, he has considerable power.

The Dali Temple was in charge of criminal cases. Once the murder of the Yun'an County magistrate was reported, he would have the right to conduct a retrial.

It was obvious that Zhou Wang wanted him to take over the case, get the Zhou family out, and catch Xiao Ying, the mastermind behind the scenes.

"Okay, okay, I, Zhou Wang, really didn't make a mistake in choosing you. After this is accomplished, you will be the great benefactor of my Zhou family!"

Zhou Wang showed some excitement, and hope rekindled in his eyes.

Although he no longer has much contact with Lord Zhou in the capital after the death of his elder, he would go to the capital every New Year to pay his respects.

Zhou Hong is also his cousin from another family. If he knew what happened to his family, he would definitely not stand idly by.

The Zhou family has found a way to save themselves, but they are not the only ones implicated in this incident.

Wei Liang also traced back to the Qian family and found Qian Qinghui and Tongzhi Guo Kun, but he did not make a big fuss about it. He went back and reported to the prefect first.

Qian Qinghui went to Guo Kun to cry again because her brother's house was raided, but Guo Kun was already busy with his own affairs, so how could he have the mood to care about anything else?

I was on pins and needles the whole day, thinking about how to escape.

But after a few days, he still couldn't escape. In the end, Guo Kun was dismissed from office and his entire family was exiled.

This incident caused a huge uproar and within two days, it spread throughout Chenjia Village, and the villagers talked about it with relish.

Sometimes they cursed the county magistrate for being a bad person, sometimes they talked about how Mr. Zhao did evil, and sometimes they praised Lord Wei Liang for handling cases impartially and being a fair judge.

Xiao Ying smiled, knowing that the matter was completely over, but she didn't know that Zhou Wang had already sent people to the capital.

Next, she found some time to go into the mountains, burned all the corpses in the fairy palace, and then buried them deep in the mountains.

On the fifth day of June, the 10,000 kilograms of spicy sauce customized for Ruyi Restaurant had been completed.

However, seven or eight thousand kilograms are still in the fermentation process. They will mature in about ten days and will be in time for the deadline.

Next, you only need to make 10% of the spicy sauce every day, and the rest can be made into spicy oil.

It just so happened that the remaining seasonings at home had almost been delivered. In two days, large quantities of them would be delivered to Ruyi Restaurant every day.

What has attracted Xiao Ying's attention recently is that the villagers have been buying wasteland to reclaim it. It turns out that the peppers in the mountains have been picked, and the villagers want to grow some themselves. Xiao Ying naturally supports this.

If you plant it now, you can harvest it around October or November. If you plant it later, you will have to wait until next year.

Xiao Ying thought that it would be a good opportunity to purchase more this year so that there would be no shortage of raw materials and production in the winter.
