Dongli drinks wine after dusk

Chapter 29
"Ascension!"

"mighty……"

When Jiang Wenyuan's gavel sounded, the two restless children of his family sneaked from the back hall to the side hall, hid in the crack of the door, one up and one down, all staring up the hall with wide eyes.

Which garbage costume drama director taught her that ancient window paper can be broken with a single poke?Jiang Jiuying was full of resentment, clutching her red finger.

This is very different from her idea. There is no one in the side hall, and there is only one door separated from the main hall. The window paper on the door pokes a few holes at will, and the two of them can comfortably mop the armchairs and place them on a special table. Snacks brought from home, good to watch the show.

This is the real scene of ancient costumes going up to ask questions, which can't be seen on TV.

The reality is skinny enough.The paper on the window at home is quite transparent. Although she hasn't poked it by herself, she thinks it shouldn't be difficult. Unexpectedly, the door of the side hall is covered with kraft paper!
Paper doesn't cost money?The manufacturing industry is underdeveloped, everything is produced manually, and it is expensive, and how many poor families are reluctant to use it!This Anqing mansion actually uses high-quality kraft paper to paste the windows!

It's because her eyelids are shallow, she thinks that Anqing Mansion is very poor!
So the result is that the prepared snacks can still be eaten, but the comfortable chairs are replaced by scorpions, and the line of sight is only left in the hall, which can't be seen by anyone!

It's not fun~~~~
Jiang Jiuying wanted to raise his head to the sky and howl, no wonder.

"Interesting." The brothers and sisters of the Jiang family thought they were hiding quite well, but Zhao Dongli, who was standing at the door and listening, had already spotted him.

The two doors shook rhythmically just now, and then they shook twice. After they stopped, there were more eyes in the cracks of the doors. It was hard not to pay attention.

Another naughty child from an official's family, he is quite timid, and the family is quite used to it, but he doesn't know if he will cry when he sees someone being beaten to a bloody mess.

"Take someone to commit Li Erniu!"

"The grassroots are wronged!" After a night in prison, Li Erniu looked a little haggard. He was escorted to the hall by the yamen servants, knelt down in the middle, and shouted for grievances.

"Li Erniu, let me ask you, do you recognize this thing?" Jiang Wenyuan showed him the dagger.

"My lord, I don't know you! The small family is a tenant, and they are so poor that they can't afford to eat. This dagger looks like a precious item. How can a small family afford it?"

The pattern on the handle of this dagger is plated with gold, the blade is cold and sharp, and it looks extraordinary at first glance.Therefore, the people around quickly began to discuss again: "That's right, all my family's belongings add up, and there may be no one worth anything. Li Erniu must not have such a poor man, has he been wronged?"

"I'll ask you again, do you recognize this person?" Guo Xiaoni was brought to the hall, she was combing her woman's hair, her eyes were full of tears, she bit her lip, she turned her head away from Li Erniu.

A pair of lovers met again in the courtroom. They said Erniu brother killed someone, and Zhou Bingzheng was killed by him. This made her feel so embarrassing.

She thought that if she accepted her fate to be a concubine, she would be able to eat and clothe herself warmly, and if she had a child by her side in the future, she would be able to rely on her life and live a stable life.But when the head of the family died, she would be sold soon. I heard that the Zhou family had already contacted her, and the person who wanted to buy her was an old man in his 50s.

At the age when she could be her grandfather, compared with Zhou Bingzheng, who was in his prime, he was thrown ten blocks away.

If it wasn't for Li Erniu, how could she have ended up in this situation.

"Xiao Niu!" Li Erniu was startled. Very few people knew about his relationship with Guo Xiaoni, not even his parents. Originally, he didn't want to ruin Guo Xiaoni's reputation, so he betrayed the villagers. Now he is Guo Xiaoni best protection.

But why was she brought here too?
"I know her. I live not far from her. When I was chopping firewood in the mountains, I met her digging wild vegetables a few times. Why do you ask me this?"

"This dagger, but Guo Xiaoni gave it to you?"

"No, I haven't seen this dagger, and I haven't killed anyone!" Li Erniu tried not to look at Guo Xiaoni, and only focused on Jiang Wenyuan, denying it.

Never pull Xiaoni into the water, this is Li Erniu's insistence.

"Guo Xiaoni. I want to ask you, did you ever give this dagger to Li Erniu, ordering him to kill your master?"

"My lord!" Guo Xiaoni yelled and knelt down, making a muffled sound when her knee touched the ground: "Why did you ever do this? My master never treated this slave poorly. The safety of my family depends entirely on the master alone. How could you find someone to harm him?"

Li Erniu couldn't help looking at Guo Xiaoni, and was eager to get rid of him.Even if she was sold, she would still be an old man's concubine. If the Zhou family found out that she had entangled with a foreigner, they might not give her a three-foot white silk!
"Since I entered the Zhou family, I have never seen a foreigner, not even my father and brothers. How can I conspire with someone to murder someone? I hope the Lord Qingtian will investigate clearly!" Guo Xiaoni is a simple person. Hastily defended.

She has no other extravagant hopes, she can live a good life, and she also accepts being a concubine to a 50-year-old man!He kowtowed to Jiang Wenyuan again and again, and after a while, his forehead was bruised and purple.

The onlookers felt their hearts twitching, hey, this little lady is weak and weak, she doesn't look like a bad person, so stop kowtowing, the beauty suffers, it makes people feel really distressed.

Since Guo Xiaoni appeared, Zhao Dongli's expression became serious, tsk tsk, except for the lack of wind and dust, she is too weak, and she really looks like Qiutong.He watched the whole dance yesterday.

Even in the capital city, it is rare to see such a beautiful face, which cannot help but leave a deep impression on everyone.

Twins?interesting.

Li Erniu was listening and watching, full of grief and indignation. Although he knew that Guo Xiaoni had no choice but to insist on not seeing him in order to protect herself, but it still made him a little sad to hear that she was so eager to prove her innocence.

After all, it was a boy who was only 15 years old, and what he thought in his heart unconsciously showed two points of grievance on his face.

Jiang Wenyuan repeatedly asked Guo Xiaoni several times, and Guo Xiaoni also repeatedly said several times that she had no personal relationship with Li Erniu, and she did not discredit the Zhou family by contacting a foreigner.Jiang Wenyuan's gavel gave another slap: "Li Erniu, you kill for her, take the blame yourself, and don't want to hurt her, does it make sense?"

Before Li Erniu could answer, he asked the next question: "Do you know that Li Jia didn't die of breath when you left, and died before he had time to write your name? Your name appeared in the murder case. At the scene, how do you explain?"

Then, without giving Li Erniu time to think and take a breath, the most terrible thing came: "This dagger is an old thing of the Cao family who was convicted for his words more than ten years ago and ransacked all over his family! If you keep this thing privately, it may not be the Cao family. Remnants! Come here!"

"Subordinates are here!"

Jiang Wenyuan threw down a green fire lottery order: "Go to Xiaoguo Village quickly, and arrest Li Erniu's parents to the hall!"

"Your subordinates obey!" The yamen servant picked up the fire lottery and turned to leave.

Li Erniu's face finally changed greatly: "My lord, please forgive me!"
