After marrying a rough man, I played mahjong to support Shoufu

Chapter 103 The Truth
One sentence made the old lady gasp, her whole body hooked together, she coughed violently, her face looked like a cooked shrimp.

"you you!"

"Old lady, don't be angry, it's not worth getting angry."

The maids and mothers-in-law went into battle together, giving the old lady some comfort.

Shen Xian twitched the corners of her lips, the old lady was too angry, she almost died of anger.

"quiet!"

The county magistrate smashed the gavel hard, and then looked at Shen Xian with deep eyes, "Shen Xian, the Niu family accuses you of killing Niu Dehua yesterday and walked away, you can admit it."

Shen Xian cast a slanted glance at Master Niu, and slightly parted his lips, "Master, the Niu family is talking nonsense."

Seeing Shen Xian's denial, the magistrate turned his attention to Master Niu again.

"Besides the bull, if you have anything else to say, tell her and confront her."

Master Niu cupped his hands towards Gao Tang, and looked at Shen Xian with a cold face, "The old man asked you, did you go to the official post yesterday?"

Shen Xian waved his hand and added: "It was forcibly taken away by your son, not by myself."

Master Niu shuddered, and continued calmly: "You also said that you were forcibly taken away, so you killed my son for self-protection!"

"Of course not!" Shen Xian confronted each other and looked at him with a sneer: "Master Niu, it's too funny to come and accuse me without knowing everything."

"What do you mean?" Master Niu looked at her with low eyes.

"Yesterday, when I left the main entrance of the official post, Niu Dehua was still drinking tea downstairs. Since I escaped, why did I kill him? He didn't have many soldiers under his command, how could I kill him silently?"

Shen Xian's every word was very reasonable, and he couldn't fault it at all.

Master Niu's face darkened, and he said resolutely: "You must have left pretendingly, and then felt unwilling, so you sneaked back and killed him! Otherwise, how could he die as soon as you left!"

Seeing that he was clenching his mouth tightly, Shen Xian looked at County Magistrate Lu and said: "Your Majesty, what Niu Yuanwai said is all speculation, if there is no real evidence, the daughter of the people will sue him for framing."

"Reasonable." County magistrate Lu asked again: "Besides the cow, do you have evidence for what you said?"

Master Niu's eyes flickered, and he hesitated: "No...no...but it must be like this!"

"Bold! Create something out of nothing without evidence. You can treat the law of this court as a trifling matter. No matter how much you dare to mess around, don't worry about this official being merciless!"

The county magistrate Lu yelled, making Mr. Niu tremble with fright.

Shen Xian looked sideways at Master Niu, and said unhurriedly: "Master Niu, I really didn't kill your son, I left the official post yesterday, drank a bowl of tea in the tea shed, and went to the east gate again. The sesame seed shop bought sesame seed cakes, if you don’t believe me, you can ask yourself, I never went back to the official post.”

There are reasons and proofs, and there is an alibi. If she didn't know that there was Zhao Shun behind her, the county magistrate Lu would have let her deceive her.

Seeing that Master Niu was speechless, Shen Xian and the county magistrate, who knew each other well, looked at each other deeply from the air.

"The judge pronounced that the Niu family falsely accused Shen Xian, and the Niu family was incompetent in raising the son. They forcibly robbed the women in the street, and the son paid the father. The fine was 200 taels of silver."

"Retire!"

Magistrate Lu made a decision, got up immediately, and left the Hall of Mirrors.

"Your magistrate! Your magistrate!"

Mr. Niu was 1 upset when he told people that he couldn't turn back, but County Magistrate Lu didn't want to talk to him at all, and hurriedly disappeared from his sight.

Grandmother Niu couldn't accept this ending even more, she rolled her eyes and passed out.

"You... don't let me discover your tell, or I will make you look good!"

Master Niu threw off his sleeves angrily, and helped the old mother out of the yamen.

After everyone left, Shen Xian did not leave, she was waiting for the magistrate to find her.

It was unreasonable for the county magistrate Lu to secretly pass on the news to her, and now he is thanklessly helping him to finish it. If he said that he had nothing else to ask for, Shen Xian would not believe it.

"Miss Shen, the county magistrate is here to invite you." At some point, Fang Fang hurried over.

Sure enough, Shen Xian smiled lightly, and followed Captain Fang to County Magistrate Lu's study.

"Miss Shen, you are using me as a chess piece again after all your planning." The county magistrate sat in front of the desk shaking his head and smiling wryly.

With a smile on his face, Shen Xian said knowingly: "The little girl can't understand what the county magistrate said, but the little girl should thank you for saving your life."

County Magistrate Lu shook his head with a smile and said: "Even if I don't do anything extra, you will be safe and sound. I just want to make a good relationship, but I didn't expect to be dragged into trouble by you instead."

A trace of suspicion appeared in Shen Xian's heart, she really couldn't understand now, why did the county magistrate trust her ability so much?
"The county magistrate is too flattering on me, I don't have that ability."

Seeing that Shen Xian pretended to be confused while pretending to understand, the county magistrate pointed her out with a smile: "My lord is now in the position of commander-in-chief, how can a small supervising army dare to offend."

"What? My father? Commander?"

Shen Xian seemed to have heard something incredible, showing a surprised expression.

County magistrate Lu was stunned for a while, and asked suspiciously: "What? You don't know?"

Shen Xian shook her head again and again, she didn't know whether her father was dead or alive, how could she know that he became commander-in-chief.

"It shouldn't be." The county magistrate stroked his beard and said, "Such a big matter can be said to be an honor to the ancestors. If I change my magistrate, I will definitely write a letter and go home as soon as possible."

write home?Shen Xian suddenly realized, his body trembled with anger.

No wonder!No wonder!
No wonder the uncle's family tried their best to deal with her. It turned out that they knew that the father had become the commander-in-chief, and they were worried that the matter of their harsh treatment would be known by the father, so they tried their best to trouble her.

Recalling the incident when she was framed back then, Jiang Shuhua either wanted to put her in a pig cage, or make her notorious, or drive her out of the village. It turned out that the crux of the problem was here.

From this point of view, the Lin family was also satisfied by the uncle's family, otherwise, with Lin Manjiang's aggressive personality, it would be impossible to offend him.

A small canine tooth was grinding and rattling, this Jiang Shuhua and Shen Gu made her feel so miserable!

Seeing Shen Xian's silence for a long time, County Magistrate Lu was a little confused, he coughed dryly and said: "Miss Shen, if your lord returns home someday, remember to inform the county, so you can move around."

After calming down, Shen Xian slowly raised his head, smiled forcedly and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Lu, my daughter will remember your kindness."

After learning the news about his father, many things suddenly became clear in Shen Xian's mind, and the county magistrate Lu's opposite behavior also had a self-evident explanation.

With Shen Xian's promise, county magistrate Lu has a good idea, and this operation is not for nothing, it's just that the credit for suppressing the bandits may have to be postponed for a while.
