Su Yun comforted Liu Quanzheng the same way Liu Xia comforted her.
She first tidied up her grandfather's hair and clothes to make him look less disheveled.
I was crying while I was tidying her up.
She didn't dare to think about how her grandfather spent his time alone in this cellar when her mother died of depression and her father killed Liu Xiaoxiang and then hanged himself.
"Grandpa, be good. I'll carry you out on my back." Su Yun gritted her teeth and carried Liu Quanzheng on her back.
She walked step by step, and stepped on Boss Liu and Liu Sheng when she passed by.
"Grandpa, close your eyes. We will be home soon."
She was worried that her grandfather had been locked in the cellar without seeing the sun for days, and that the light from the outside world would hurt his eyes if he went out.
Su Yun climbed up to the cellar, and Su Bing and others also arrived.
"Dad, Mom!"
As soon as Su Yun saw her parents, she couldn't control her emotions anymore.
She screamed at the top of her lungs.
Liu Xia stumbled towards Su Yun, her hands trembling as she did not dare to touch her father.
Her eyes were bloodshot and she held the water bag at her waist with trembling hands as she fed it into her father's mouth.
"Dad, drink some water."
"Hmm." Liu Quanzheng drank the water in a daze, feeling the sweetness in his mouth and swallowing it in big gulps.
Su Bing couldn't help but his eyes turned red, he bowed and said.
"Uncle, aunt, who of you has a bullock cart that I can borrow?"
"I have some at home!" said Old Man Liu, "I'll go get them."
Old Man Liu didn't dare to delay at all and ran over quickly to drive the ox cart over.
There was also a blanket on the ox cart.
"Hurry up and bring the scholar up here."
Su Bing took over, carried Liu Quanzheng into the car and put him down carefully.
The family of three also got on the ox cart and headed to the clinic in Longde Town.
"Zhang Zhaodi, are you still human?"
"Boss Liu is a piece of shit. He looks so honest all day long, but I didn't expect him to do such a thing!"
"Bah, what a heartless family!"
After he left, those who had received favors from Liu Quanzheng in the past could no longer sit still.
Zhang Zhaodi and Liu Xiaoxiang were so frightened that they were stunned. They had only one thought at this moment.
That's it, it's completely over.
"Everyone, come on, beat this family of wicked people to death."
The villagers first spat at him, then swarmed forward and kicked each of the Liu elders.
What's more, they even dragged out Boss Liu and Liu Sheng from the cellar and beat them unilaterally.
Seeing that the situation was not right, Cui'er took Liu Sheng's money and ran back to Yihongyuan.
Jiyun Hall.
The doctor took Liu Quanzheng's pulse while stroking his beard on his chin with one hand.
"Strange, strange!"
"Doctor, what's wrong with my father?" Liu Xia asked anxiously.
"Your father is so hungry that he looks like a naked man. His stomach is also damaged. Normally, his pulse at the right Guan should be floating, but this pulse is strong and powerful!"
The doctor then shook his head and said, "Forget it. I'll prescribe some tonic medicine for you to take care of yourself first. Remember, don't eat too much meat or fish these days. Eat something soft and easily digestible."
[It should be that the Lingxi that my mother fed to my grandfather took effect. 】
Su Yun thought silently, she held her grandfather's hand tightly and was reluctant to let go.
Liu Xia also breathed a sigh of relief.
"I'll go buy some porridge for Dad." Su Bing patted Liu Xia's shoulder, "Don't worry, I will put Liu Sheng's family in jail!"
"Yeah." Liu Xia said in a muffled voice.
After Su Bing went out, he first bought some porridge and then went to the yamen to beat the drum.
“Boom~Boom~Boom~”
He knocked six times in a row.
The bailiff came over lazily, yawning.
"Who's beating the drum?"
"I'm Su Bing, my father-in-law is Liu Quanzheng. Fifteen days ago, he was locked up in the cellar by Liu Sheng's family, and their house was occupied." Su Bing bowed and said a few words briefly.
The bailiff didn't want to get involved, but when he heard it was Liu Quanzheng, he asked.
"But he is Mr. Liu from Shangxi Village."
"Exactly."
After a while, he came back.
He waved impatiently.
"Go away, go away, this matter is not our government's business."
"Sir, the Liu Sheng family is really bad. My father-in-law almost died of hunger!" Su Bing said as he secretly stuffed the silver in his hand to the yamen runner.
He knew that if he didn't give the other party enough money to satisfy him, they would not care about the matter.
County Magistrate Zhao was obsessed with pleasure and his subordinates followed suit.
The trial and judgment of a case can only be carried out by paying bribes.
The bailiff weighed the two pieces of silver in his hand and his eyes lit up.
That’s a full forty taels!
Even after paying tribute to the county magistrate and his legal advisor, he still had one or two taels left in his hands.
He grinned and agreed, "He is indeed a piece of shit!"
"Brothers, it's time to work!" The bailiff shouted into the yard, and four or five bailiffs who had just woken up came out.
Su Bing first sent the porridge back, and then went back to Shangxi Village with the yamen runners to bring back Liu Sheng's family.
It was already noon.
After eating the porridge, Liu Quanzheng took a nap and felt much better.
After taking the money, the bailiff politely waited outside Jiyun Hall.
Liu Xia bought a set of clean clothes for her father.
After Liu Quanzheng put on his clothes, he tidied his hair.
He straightened his back and walked out slowly.
The yamen is not far from Jiyun Hall.
Su Yun and Liu Xia also followed.
"mighty……"
The yamen runners stood in two rows, hitting the ground in unison with water and fire sticks.
Zhang Zhaodi, who was kneeling on the stage, was crying, and Boss Liu also looked unhappy.
Magistrate Zhao was sitting on the high bench wearing his official hat. He slammed the gavel on the table.
"quiet!"
Zhang Zhaodi was so frightened that she was shaking and biting her lips tightly.
Liu Xiaoxiang wasn't much better, her face was pale.
County Magistrate Zhao cleared his throat and said, "Boss Liu, have you imprisoned Scholar Liu and occupied his house?"
"Common people...common people..."
Boss Liu hesitated, and he looked at Liu Quanzheng beside him as if he had seen a life-saving straw.
"Little brother, I was wrong! Please forgive me! I won't dare to do it again!"
Boss Liu knelt on the ground and slapped himself left and right.
County Magistrate Zhao watched quietly. Although he accepted Su Bing's gift, this was after all a family matter. If Scholar Liu did not pursue the matter, there was nothing he could do.
Liu Sheng couldn't bear to watch it anymore and he shouted unconvincedly.
"Dad, why are you begging him for anything? I am the only child of the Liu family. How can that old man bear to let me go to jail? If I really go to jail, who will break the fire pot for him?"
Boss Liu's face darkened even more. Was his eldest son an idiot? He slapped Liu Sheng in the face.
"Asshole, that's your uncle!"
"Dad, you hit me!" Liu Sheng couldn't believe it.
"You are a jerk, you have no talent, you only know how to beat your son. If you had the talent, why didn't you smother your second brother to death? If you had smothered him, you wouldn't have to worry about this!"
Zhang Zhaodi loved her eldest son the most, so she raised her hand and grabbed Liu Lao Da's face.
She had already broken down emotionally, and now she was talking without thinking.
At the beginning, Liu Sheng meant to simply kill Liu Quanzheng and bury him.
But Boss Liu was always thinking about the brotherhood and was unwilling to do so.
All he wanted was his second brother's house, not his life! "Silence!" Magistrate Zhao slammed the gavel, making a clattering sound.
Zhang Zhaodi also let go and became completely crazy.
Liu Xiaoxiang remained silent, with his head down, and his expression could not be seen clearly.
Boss Liu, with tears in his eyes, crawled towards Liu Quanzheng on his knees, grabbing the hem of his clothes with one hand.
"Little brother, I really know I was wrong. Look, you are fine now, aren't you? Can you forgive me? I was just confused for a moment. Have you forgotten? Dad and Mom are busy, and I raised you all by myself!"
Seeing Boss Liu playing the emotional card, Su Yun looked at her grandfather worriedly.
[These are crocodile tears, grandpa, please don't be soft-hearted! ]
