Chapter 337 Ignore the Boss
Ye Mingzhu asked about Jiang Hongyu's situation again, and Xiaowu shook his head. He really didn't know where Jiang Hongyu was.
"Hongyu is just gathering information this time. I don't think there will be any danger. Don't worry too much." Xiaowu realized after he finished speaking that all the words he said today were comforting, and he felt a little embarrassed for a moment.
Ye Mingzhu didn't say anything. She knew Jiang Hongyu's ability. Although she was a little worried, she knew that he would be fine.
The matter had been discussed and Ye Mingzhu didn't want to stay any longer, so she was about to say goodbye.
When she left through the back door, she saw the yamen runners coming back with a few people. They all had their heads hung down and looked decadent.
"Those are the people who are with Uncle Fang." Uncle Yan pointed at them and said.
Ye Mingzhu looked carefully and recognized that the last person walking was Uncle Fang.
She was angry and felt that Uncle Fang was hopeless. He arrested his own nephew and sent his own brother-in-law to jail. It seemed that he was not going to recognize his own sister.
Human nature really cannot stand the test.
"Uncle Yan, let's go." Ye Mingzhu didn't look at them anymore, and they went directly to the farm.
In fact, there is another important witness in this case, the person who lost too much blood. As long as that person says that he has never seen Uncle Ye, it should be able to reduce Uncle Ye's suspicion.
But she had just asked Xiaowu, and Xiaowu said that the man had been in a coma and was still receiving treatment in the clinic.
In the next few days, Ye Mingzhu and Uncle Yan lived in the farm, and Uncle Yan went to the government office every day to inquire about the latest situation.
There was no progress. Although Uncle Fang said that the matter had nothing to do with Uncle Ye, everyone else said that Uncle Ye was involved, and now the two sides are arguing endlessly.
The man they injured has stabilized somewhat, but has not yet regained consciousness.
Uncle Yan also saw Ye Lang at the gate of the yamen. Ye Lang said that Fang was worried and asked him to come and ask about the situation.
Uncle Yan only said that the county magistrate had not returned and the case had not been tried yet, but Uncle Ye San did not suffer in prison.
Ye Lang wanted to meet Uncle Ye San. After asking Xiao Wu, Uncle Yan let them meet alone before sending Ye Lang away.
Two days later, there was still no progress, but Yu Jiaming came back and asked someone to deliver a message to Ye Mingzhu to go to the government office.
Ye Mingzhu thought he was going to talk about Uncle Ye San, but unexpectedly Yu Jiaming asked about her trip to the provincial capital some time ago.
"I'm going to visit my uncle. He's getting married after the Chinese New Year, so I'm going to take a look."
Ye Mingzhu didn't know why Yu Jiaming suddenly asked about this.
"Did you encounter anything else when you went to the provincial capital?" Yu Jiaming asked this casually, but his eyes were always fixed on Ye Mingzhu.
"Something else?" Ye Mingzhu looked nonchalant, but her mind couldn't help but think of the shipwreck.
"What counts as something else?" she asked rhetorically.
Yu Jiaming suddenly smiled: "Mingzhu, you know, I always treat you as my sister. If you encounter any problems, you can tell me. I will definitely help if I can."
Ye Mingzhu quickly shook her head: "I went to the capital, and it seemed that I met my future aunt-in-law. Nothing special happened."
Yu Jiaming asked some questions indirectly, but Ye Mingzhu insisted that nothing happened.
Finally, she tilted her head and said, "Master Yu, you are asking so many questions. Is there something going on in the city that you need to know?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Yu Jiaming felt very bad. The way Ye Mingzhu addressed him showed her attitude.
He treated Ye Mingzhu as his sister and only saw Ye Mingzhu as the county magistrate.
For a moment, he lost the mood to test: "Mingzhu, when I was in the capital, I heard that something big happened, and I wanted to ask if you had heard about it."
Ye Mingzhu simply shook her head: "I haven't heard of what happened in the capital city. It may have happened after you went there."
She had already guessed that Yu Jiaming was asking about the shipwreck.
But she didn't even tell her own brother about this, so how could she tell anyone else?
So no matter how hard Yu Jiaming tried, he couldn't get any information.
It was hard to tell whether Yu Jiaming's expression was one of disappointment or relief; in short, it looked a little strange.
He took a sip of tea and talked about something else.
"I've also heard about your Third Uncle's affairs. Based on the confessions we have so far, we can't rule out the possibility that he was unaware of the situation. Especially since those people are so insistent on his involvement."
Yu Jiaming observed Ye Mingzhu's expression and continued, "Unless the injured person wakes up."
Ye Mingzhu didn't understand what Yu Jiaming meant, and could only say that she would leave everything to Yu Jiaming.
If Uncle Ye was not involved, she certainly did not want Uncle Ye to be sentenced, but she also did not want Yu Jiaming to find Uncle Ye not guilty because of her.
This favor is too great for her to repay.
Yu Jiaming also saw what Ye Mingzhu meant, and he couldn't help but say: "If your third uncle hadn't done this, we wouldn't let him plead guilty."
Ye Mingzhu didn't know how good the ancient survey technology was, but she could only place her hopes on Jiaming.
Yu Jiaming talked about his experiences in the city and introduced some interesting places in the city, asking her to visit them if she had the chance.
Ye Mingzhu finally felt that she had nothing to say, so she just said goodbye.
After she left, Yu Jiaming looked towards the back hall: "What do you think, sir?"
A man in his thirties came out from the back hall and sat in the main seat. After a while, he said, "I'll find another chance to ask. If there's no problem, forget it."
Yu Jiaming finally breathed a sigh of relief.
After Ye Mingzhu and Uncle Yan left the government office, Uncle Yan asked in a low voice: "Mingzhu, did something happen when you went to the capital?"
As soon as Ye Mingzhu shook her head, Uncle Yan reminded her: "Since nothing happened, no matter who said it, it's true."
"It was all right." Ye Mingzhu said this very fluently, she even brainwashed herself in her mind.
Uncle Yan saw that she was a little nervous and comforted her, "Since nothing happened, I guess everything will be fine."
Although this was a confusing statement, Ye Mingzhu understood what he meant, which was that as long as she insisted on not knowing anything, then everything would be fine.
Ye Mingzhu did nothing but nod.
However, she didn't have much time to think about it, because Yu Jiaming sent someone to tell her that the person who was injured had woken up.
She and Uncle Yan hurried to the yamen again.
Yu Jiaming was not there, so Xiaowu received them, but the expression on Xiaowu's face was not relaxed.
"The man has woken up, but he can't speak yet. We're not sure if he can identify the person who hurt him."
Ye Mingzhu frowned. In that case, Uncle Ye would be in danger, and Xiaowu had no other choice for the time being.
Uncle Yan thought about it and gave Xiao Wu an idea. Xiao Wu's eyes lit up: "Uncle Yan, your idea is great."
Ye Mingzhu then remembered that they had overlooked Uncle Yan, the big boss.
