First Wife of Zhu Family

Chapter 361
Mrs. He acts vigorously and resolutely.

In just two days, the petition to plead for Jing Si had already landed on Song Zixun's desk.There were not only the joint petitions of the local gentry, merchants and wives of the Jia family, but also many ordinary people who had been favored by Mrs. Huo in the past spontaneously pressed their fingerprints on the petition.Everyone was grateful for Mrs. Huo's pity for the poor and the weak, and the good deeds of benefiting the neighbors. They begged the county magistrate to sympathize with Jing Si's sincere heart. Combined with the heinous crimes committed by Xiao Hong in the case of poisoning Mrs. Huo with one corpse and two murders, Jing Si's The negligence leading to his death will be considered according to the circumstances, and he will be punished lightly.

At the same time, as the head of the victim's family, Huo Yuliang also personally approached Song Zixun, expressing his willingness to give up the right to pursue all responsibilities of Jing Si, and begged Song Zixun to be sentenced lightly.

Because Xiaohong has no parents or family members in this world, although Sun Chuan is her good friend, the two have no marriage contract, and Sun Chuan himself is suspected of extortion and is currently being detained in the county government. Yu Liang was the only victim of this case, since he said he would not pursue it, Song Zixun was naturally happy to be an adult, and gave Jing Si a good result.

So three days later, Song Zixun opened the court for retrial, and sentenced him to twenty Jingsi sticks, which will be executed immediately.

... When the news reached the Song Mansion, Du Rongzhi was sitting on the Luohan bed, embroidering the purse in his hand stitch by stitch.

In the past two days, Song Zixun confiscated all her miscellaneous books, leaving her idle every day, so she had to do needlework with the maids to pass the time.

She was silent for a while after hearing this, and then sighed softly, "Jingsi is a girl after all... These twenty boards hit her body, and she can bear it..."

Qing He smiled and comforted, "Young Madam, you can't think like this. If our master hadn't been lenient, Miss Jingsi would have been sentenced to exile if she didn't say much... How can it be so easy? What's more, this The boards are all beaten by people, whether it is light or heavy, don't you have the final say? The master will definitely not let Miss Jing Si suffer too much, young lady don't worry."

Du Rongzhi thought about it too, and couldn't help laughing, "You're right... I think too much." She lowered her head and continued to embroider.

Yuanyuan couldn't help but leaned over to take a look, and saw a pear tree embroidered on the purse, the snow-white petals were floating down one after another, and it was falling on the tip of the hair between the eyebrows of the woman with her face slightly upturned under the tree... Yuanyuan couldn't help it. He exclaimed in admiration, "It's so delicate... I'm sure I'll like it!"

Du Rongzhi didn't raise her eyes, and said coolly, "It's not for him, it doesn't matter if he likes it or not." After accepting her book and forcing her to take medicine, I haven't had time to settle the debt with him...

Yuan Yuan secretly stuck out her tongue at Qing He, the latter gave her a wink, and looked at her with a smile, "How come this girl under the tree looks similar to Young Madam...it's really pretty."

Du Rongzhi paused for a moment, pursed her lips and insisted, "Where does it look like..." Turning her head, she began to embroider vigorously again.

....................................

But Du Rongzhi was so engrossed in this room, completely forgetting himself, that she didn't even hear the sound of footsteps outside the house.It wasn't until Qing He and the others greeted each other one after another that she suddenly realized that there was another person in the room at some point.

Du Rongzhi couldn't help frowning and said angrily, "When did you come back? Why can't you walk without making a sound?" While talking, he quickly put the needle and thread into the basket.

Song Zixun didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "It's obvious that you embroidered like crazy and ignored others, but now you're blaming me." Then he sat down beside her, and asked casually, "What were you embroidering just now?" He glanced casually into the basket.

Du Rongzhi blocked his sight calmly, handed the bamboo basket to Qing He to put it away, "I'm free, just embroider something to pass the time." Then changed the subject, "I heard that Jing Si has been sentenced today... "

"Yeah." Song Zixun picked up her hand and played with it in his palm, "Twenty sticks...the punishment has been executed, let her go." He asked with a smile, "Is this result, Madam, satisfied?"

Du Rongzhi smiled sweetly, changed her serious appearance in a blink of an eye, and said in a deep voice, "The county magistrate is wise!"

Song Zixun couldn't help being amused by her appearance, and stretched out his hand to pinch her rosy face, "Naughty." After thinking about it, he asked again, "Did you take your medicine on time today?"

Du Rongzhi paused for a moment with a smile, nodded and said, "Yes—"

Before the words fell, Qing He mercilessly exposed, "Where is there?" She walked forward quickly, frowning, "Master, please take care of the young lady! She is only honest under your nose …I got up at noon this morning and refused to take any medicine, and later I even lied to us for pouring the medicine into the flower bed secretly…”

Song Zixun raised his eyebrows and looked at her with a half-smile.

Du Rongzhi glared at Qing He bitterly, turned her face and smiled innocently and said, "Don't listen to her nonsense, I really wanted to drink...but the medicine is too bitter and I can't help it."

Song Zixun nodded understandingly, and ordered, "Go and make another bowl of medicine for Young Madam, this time I will feed you." The last sentence was directed at Du Rongzhi.

Du Rongzhi puffed up her cheeks and didn't want to talk much.

Qing He quickly smiled and said yes, and retreated with Yuan Yuan.

Song Zixun took Du Rongzhi into his arms with his long arms, and poked her face with a smile, "It's obviously your fault, but you still have the guts to be angry with me? Huh?"

"Where am I wrong?" Du Rongzhi curled her lips and reasoned unconvinced, "Didn't I tell you? Those things were not imagined by me, they were all dreamed up! I'm not sick! Why are you so angry? Force me to take medicine?"

Song Zixun said with a fond smile, "I didn't say you were sick...it's just that you haven't been able to sleep well lately, and you often have nightmares. You should take some medicine to recuperate. Don't be so childish...huh?"

"..." Du Rongzhi bit her lip guiltily, seeing that it was too tough, she had to soften her tone, and said with red eyes, "But I used to take so many medicines, I was really afraid of taking them... just Can't you not eat?"

Seeing that Song Zixun frowned in pain, Du Rongzhi hugged his neck persistently, and choked up with grievances, "You don't allow me to read those miscellaneous books, and I will obey you...won't you obey me once?" ?" While talking, the soft diamond lips scraped the man's sensitive ears intentionally or unintentionally, and she heard her softly begging next to the ear, "Stop eating... okay?"

The hand around her waist tightened unconsciously...

Song Zixun asked hoarsely, "No medicine...then what do you want?"

Du Rongzhi was stunned for a moment, but before he realized what he meant, his eyes suddenly blurred, and his whole body was crushed by him.

"If you don't eat, don't eat..." He leaned over and kissed her stupid eyes, "Anyway, there are many ways to make you sleep well..."
