Chapter 236 Chen Chunyaoyao, Zhao Zhao next year
The lame man had been tied up like a dumpling, gagged, and thrown at their feet.
Yu Tingwan had difficulty finding a place to stand.
The girl lifted her embroidered shoes and kicked them.
"Move."
The lame man's eyes almost popped out:...
How can he move!
He can't even move!
Aunt He:...
How can this girl still be so fierce!
After arriving at the clinic, the old doctor on duty saw Zhao Zhao's injuries and ran over to see her without saying a word.
Fortunately, there was no injury to the vital parts.
However, she still needs to be nursed for a while.
When Widow Jiang took out the money, she didn't have enough money on her. Without hesitation, she took out the silver bracelet on her wrist to pay for it.
After the injury was treated and the medicine was prescribed, the group went to the government office.
Zhao Zhao had fallen asleep, and now she was nestled in Widow Jiang's arms, with two tear marks on her tender face.
Widow Jiang, who hadn't spoken all the way, wiped her gently, fearing that she would hurt her.
Yu Tingwan just watched.
On the contrary, Aunt He became worried when she saw the government office getting closer and closer. In fact, the lame man was in a worse situation. The blood on his face was coagulated, which looked scary.
She whispered to Yu Tingwan: "Really going to the government office? If we bring him to the government office, I'm afraid we will also be sued."
"If he turns around and insists that we want to kill him. Girl, I'm afraid we will also have to suffer a pot."
Yu Tingwan patted her back: "It's okay."
Aunt He:...
Her eyes lit up.
"Girl, you don't know someone in the government office."
Otherwise, why are the people in the alley so arrogant?
"No."
What could Yu Tingwan know.
She said honestly: "I'm just an ordinary citizen."
"The tall and thin man driving the horse outside, he just called you Madam."
Yu Tingwan was also distressed by this.
"He won't change his words, there's nothing I can do."
Aunt He:...
I talk to you about this, and you talk to me about that.
The carriage stopped.
Yu Tingwan was in no hurry to get off the carriage, and her expression was calm, like Widow Jiang.
"Your family and your husband's family are not easy to deal with. Have you thought about what to do?"
"If the superior is not kind, the subordinates will be unfilial. This is the normal law. If the elder is not benevolent, the younger will be disrespectful. This is the way of the Tao."
She advised.
"If I were you, I would definitely take this opportunity to make a fuss, fight for what should be fought for, and give up what should be given up."
————
Outside the yamen stood two stone lions with bared fangs and claws, and on both sides stood constables holding big swords. The people passing by subconsciously lowered their voices.
The newly appointed county magistrate was making tea for He Xuran.
At this time, a constable hurried to report.
"Sir, someone is beating a drum outside."
He Xuran saw that he had almost finished talking, so he stood up and didn't want to stay for long.
"You are busy."
"I will take you there."
"No need."
He Xuran went out, and after a few steps, he saw Uncle Yan, a close confidant sent by Gu Taifu to protect him, striding over.
Uncle Yan looked solemn and whispered something in his ear.
He Xuran suddenly stopped.
"She's here too?"
"Yes."
"But is she injured?"
"No, someone else was injured."
The county magistrate was ready to go to court, but He Xuran turned back.
He hurriedly asked respectfully, "Does Lord He have any instructions?"
"It's not a big deal."
He Xuran just said, "The interrogation is your business, I won't interfere. But the girl in the pink cotton coat..."
He paused.
"It's cold, and standing for a long time is tiring, don't you think?"
This sentence sounded insignificant.
But the information was big.
The county magistrate hurriedly said, "Yes, yes."
When he passed through the corridor and rushed to the lobby, he was shocked to see the lame man on the ground.
"How...how come his forehead is broken?"
Yu Tingwan was calm and composed: "Your Excellency, he hit himself."
She opened her mouth and said: "I don't know what happened. He rushed over when he saw the wall. We couldn't stop him."
"We had no choice but to tie him up. That's it."
County magistrate:...
What pale and powerless words!
But when he saw the person who was speaking was wearing a pink cotton coat.
The lame man denied: "No..."
The county magistrate directly agreed with Yu Tingwan's words: "It's true."
Yu Tingwan: ???
Shunzi, who had not yet revealed the wooden card of Wei Jiajun's identity: ???
Aunt He: ???
The rest of the story went smoothly.
Widow Jiang knelt on the ground and reported everything in detail, and everyone who heard it burst into tears. Besides, the county magistrate was biased.
The witness was there.
The physical evidence was the wound on the girl's body.
The county magistrate did not say a word and quickly convicted the person.
According to the law, the lame man was taken away by the brigade.
Widow Jiang knelt on the ground and could not get up.
She knew that what she should hate the most was...
"Sir, please summon my parents and my parents-in-law here."
"It doesn't matter if I'm gossiped about or accused. I want to sign a letter of severance with these people and have no contact with them in the future."
"After my husband died, I didn't ask for their help, but I couldn't avoid their troubles. But they were sinister and calculated, and even women and children were not spared."
"When I was still in the boudoir, I never disobeyed my elders. After I got married, I didn't do
anything to let my late husband down." Widow Jiang choked up and said, "I'm just a vulgar lady who doesn't understand any big principles. But if they can sell me once, they will sell me a second time. Why should I be sold by these people? Although filial piety is the most important virtue, I can't make a living anymore, and I can't care so much."
County Magistrate: "This..."
It's really against the moral code.
Yu Tingwan's voice came: "It's better to remove the firewood from under the cauldron than to stir the soup to stop it from boiling."
It was those people who didn't think about the flesh and blood relationship first.
Yu Tingwan said calmly: "Otherwise it will only be a hidden danger."
The county magistrate no longer hesitated: "What the young lady said makes sense."
Shunzi: ...
He thought he had made arrangements in advance.
Things went smoothly.
Aunt He was in a daze after coming out.
"Girl, you are really..."
Yu Tingwan: "An ordinary and good citizen."
Aunt He: ...
Widow Jiang stuffed the letter of severance into her arms, and knelt down to Yu Tingwan as soon as she left the yamen.
How could she not see that she had benefited from Yu Tingwan.
"Thank you for helping me out today. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid..."
Yu Tingwan helped her up.
"No need to thank me."
She looked at the child and her face softened.
"Thank yourself if you want to thank someone."
"Give her a good name."
Widow Jiang was puzzled.
Yu Tingwan said nothing more, and her sharp eyes saw another carriage parked on the side of the road not far away, very low-key. But she saw Rong Di!
The girl's eyes lit up.
Who doesn't have a Zhao Zhao!
"Shunzi, you send Aunt He and the others back."
Shunzi: "Yes."
Yu Tingwan walked down the steps quickly and got into the carriage quickly.
"Husband."
Wei Zhao raised his eyes, put down the book in his hand, and when the girl sat over, he handed the heater to her arms.
Yu Tingwan hugged him tightly.
Looking at him with a smile.
"Aren't you going to test my knowledge today?"
Wei Zhao was surprised: "Are you hinting at me?"
His slender fingertips touched Yu Tingwan's lips.
He whispered: "Do you want it again?"
"It's not impossible."
Yu Tingwan slapped it away.
"I just suddenly thought of a poem just now."
She cleared her throat, and when her eyes moved, she had an unconscious charm.
"I miss you to listen."
It's rare to make progress.
It's just a bit of a spoiler.
But... it's not really spoiler.
The little finger hooked his hand.
Wei Zhao's heart seemed to be scratched by something. His eyes were dim, watching the girl's rosy lips open and close.
He recited softly.
Words that shook his heartstrings.
"The spring of the past is long gone, but the coming year is bright."
