Chapter 672: Poisonous Shredded Pork Noodles

Brother Mingxue is so nice to her.

He is no different from his biological brother. Jiang Fubao is very worried.

"Let's all go and have a look."

Except for the older Dong Wei and Jiang Shoujia who stayed to accompany him, everyone went.

Although Kong Yuanbao and Wan Xian spent the New Year at the Jiang family yesterday, the Kong family restaurant was not closed.

Different from the Jiang family's canteen, the Kong family's canteen sells meals. Although many families in the city live better than those in the village, some cannot afford to support servants.

During the Chinese New Year, they want to eat something delicious but are too lazy to cook, so the whole family will go to a food store to have the New Year’s Eve dinner, or they can buy a few dishes from the food store and have the waiter deliver them to their home.

It’s different with snack shops. New Year’s Eve is a time for family reunions, so who would eat snacks?

On New Year's Eve, except for restaurants and restaurants, almost all shops are closed.

The Kong family's restaurant is very busy.

Thanks to Kong Yuanbao for hiring a shopkeeper, otherwise he would not have been able to get away.

Along the way, Jiang Fubao was thinking about how to break this situation.

Therefore, she, who is usually very lively, now speaks less.

Meng Bujiu, who was walking beside her, saw the whole scene.

"Fubao, don't worry, it's okay. With me here, nothing will happen to the Kong family."

He lowered his head slightly, leaned over and spoke into Jiang Fubao's ear.

Meng Bujiu was very tall, and Jiang Fubao was young and not fully grown, so she only reached Meng Bujiu's chest.

Meng Bujiu bent his back quite a bit before he could barely reach shoulder to shoulder with her.

"No, Brother Bujiu, I know what you want to do, but you can't do this. You are now the magistrate of Qixi County. If you protect the Kong family in front of the people, the people may not dare to say anything, but I don't know what they will say about you in private. If it doesn't make a big fuss, it's fine. At worst, you will be arrested and severely tortured in prison.

That man will always tell the truth, but now it has become a big deal, and the people of the whole city are waiting for the outcome of this matter. If you protect the Kong family and arrest him and put him in jail, even if you torture him, he will tell the truth. When he goes to court, the people will see the injuries on his body and will definitely have wild thoughts and all kinds of conspiracy theories will come out..."

Jiang Fubao raised his head and replied to Meng Bujiu in the same low voice.

Her pace slowed down a bit, and she instantly distanced herself from the Jiang and Meng families who were walking in front of her.

The two grew up together, and Jiang Fubao knew what Meng Bujiu wanted to do with just one sentence.

I guess they will catch the troublemaker and put him in jail, punish him and force out the truth.

But what time is it now? It's noon, and things have already become out of control.

If there was a better way, she didn't want Meng Bujiu to be criticized.

If Meng Bujiu wants to enter the officialdom smoothly, everything will go smoothly.

You should never do anything that will damage your reputation.

This is actively giving the enemy a handle.

"Don't worry, Fubao. I know what I'm doing. You have to know that some punishments won't leave any scars, which is enough to make him relax."

A hint of ruthlessness suddenly flashed in Meng Bujiu's eyes.

Jiang Fubao rarely saw this kind of expression on his face.

Sure enough, things are different after becoming an official.

His temperament has changed.

In the past, Brother Bujiu was always gentle and had never been angry in front of her.

He doesn't like to laugh, but the corners of his mouth are always raised.

Unlike now, his face is cold, as if he is about to take a shocking photo in the next second.

But it's also good this way. If an official is too kind and gentle, he will be bullied. An official must be dignified in order to intimidate the people and his subordinates.

Just as she said just now, if the troublemaker had not carried her mother's coffin to the Kong family's restaurant and made a big deal out of it, she would actually support not torturing her brother.

But that person is very smart.

Now she could only think of other ways to help the Kong family escape.

She and Meng Bujiu both believed that the Kong family was wronged.

The same is true for others.

"Mom, mom, you died tragically!"

"My poor grandmother, if you were to leave us like this, what would we do?"

"Mother, I am an unfilial son. You were killed by this traitor. I cannot help you. Please open your eyes and punish the evil and promote the good for me."

"Wuwuwu, grandma, get up quickly, grandma."

"You beasts, a bunch of beasts, my wife was clearly killed by you, but you refuse to admit it. Everyone, take a look, the coroner said that my wife was poisoned to death. If yesterday was not New Year's Eve, and my family was kind and did not want to drag the coffin around to disturb everyone and bring bad luck to everyone, would we have come here today?

But in this world, good people never live long, and good people never get good rewards!! You, Kongjia Food Store, killed my wife, and the evidence is solid, but you refuse to admit it. You black-hearted merchants, in order to make money, your hearts are black, black! ! "

"Everyone, don't come to Kong's restaurant to eat in the future. Be careful, you may be the next one to die. Today it's my mother, tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow, who will it be? It could be anyone in the crowd!

"Mother, I will definitely seek justice for you. Even if the county magistrate comes, I am not afraid. I am justified! My mother was killed by the pork noodles from your Kong Family Restaurant. If the pork noodles were not poisonous, how could they kill people?"

"......"

Before he even arrived, Jiang Fubao heard a noise coming from the Kong Family Restaurant.

What I saw was countless people crowded in the middle of the alley.

This is the territory of the Kong family's food estate.

Jiang Fubao sneered.

Judging from the sounds, this troublemaker is very good at manipulating people's minds.

After a few words, those who were originally watching the excitement started to shout as well.

I am afraid that if they continue talking, these people will attack the Kong family.

"Are you sure your mother ate shredded pork noodles?"

A cold yet somewhat childish voice came from outside the crowd.

Zhou Kui, who was speaking passionately to the people, turned his head and looked.

Two officers led the way, and the crowd made way for Jiang Fubao and his group.

Jiang Fubao and Meng Bujiu walked in.

The people who knew Meng Bujiu immediately knelt down and saluted.

Of course, there were also those who did not kneel, because they had made great achievements.

These are the scholars, farmers, merchants and artisans.

An official always stands at the top of the pyramid, even if he is just a small county magistrate.

What's more, the prefect is here too.

The Zhou family members who had caused the trouble shuddered with fear when they saw the county magistrate and the prefect coming, but when they saw the coffin in front of them, they became righteous again.

After the ceremony, everyone stood up.

He turned his gaze to Jiang Fubao who had just spoken.

"Are you sure your mother ate shredded pork noodles?" Jiang Fubao asked again.

"Of course, if my mother didn't eat shredded pork noodles, how could she be poisoned?" said the eldest brother Zhou Jinsuo, raising his head.

His eyes narrowed slightly.

I always feel like I've seen the girl talking in front of me somewhere before.

I can’t remember.
