Chapter 108 107 I was really wronged
Zhou chose Lin Feng without hesitation.

He raised his hand to wipe his face, stood up, the embarrassment in his eyes was no longer there, and told Man Yue, "Man Yue, go and bring my concubine here."

It seemed that Zhou was not confused yet, and Lin Shu also breathed a sigh of relief.

Although he became an official, when he faced the Lin family, he always remembered his previous friendship in his heart, but he really didn't dare to go to extremes.

So, he cast a grateful look at Jiang Ruan Xi, but Jiang Ruan Xi looked away and had no intention of looking at him.

Lin Shu was a little disappointed, but he didn't have time to sigh. Not far away, the Kang Zhou family was already dragging out crying by the full moon.

"Master Qingtian, the citizen woman has been wronged. The matter of releasing water money was really not done by the citizen woman. I also ask Master Qingtian to find out the truth and give justice to the citizen woman."

Kang Zhou came out crying and threw herself at Lin Shu's feet. She cried so hard that she seemed to be the most wronged person in the world.

Mrs. Zhou was dumbfounded and even doubted that Mrs. Kang Zhou was really wronged?
Jiang Ruanxi knew this woman's usual tricks. She sneered in her heart and stepped forward and said, "Auntie, don't be so excited. Let's talk about what we have to talk about. It's written so clearly in black and white. It's not like you cry and quibble. You Then there is no guilt.”

Lin Shu was initially confused by Kang Zhou's aggressive behavior and took a few steps back.

Jiang Ruanxi's words made him suddenly wake up, and his face sank, "I have solid evidence, how can I allow you to make sophistry?"

Kang Zhou thought that his scheme was about to succeed, but he was reminded by Jiang Ruan Xi at the critical moment, causing it to stop midway.

She was so angry that she gritted her teeth and glared at Jiang Ruan Xi, as if to blame her for talking too much.

Then he looked at Lin Shu with an aggrieved look.

"I am really unjust, Mr. Qingtian. I was indeed involved in the money release, but the money is not mine."

"Whose is it if it's not yours?"

Lin Shu thought she would reveal her accomplices, so her face became more serious.

Kangzhou cried and said, "Of course Jiang Ruanxi gave it to me."

Lin Shu frowned, and Ms. Zhou opened her mouth in shock. On the other hand, the person involved, Jiang Ruan Xi, was calm and unhurried, but if you look closely, you can see that the corners of her mouth were raised inadvertently.

"Bold." Lin Shu reacted and scolded directly, "Ms. Kang Zhou, do you know what you are talking about? If you deliberately frame me, it will be an even greater crime."

Kang Zhou wiped her tears and stood up with disdain on her face, "Sir, what the woman said is true. If you don't believe it, ask my sister if Jiang Ruan Xi gave us ten thousand taels of silver?"

Lin Shu looked at Mrs. Zhou, "Auntie, is this true?"

Afraid that she might lose her head, he reminded her again, "This matter is related to the reputation of the Lin family. Auntie, please think twice before speaking."

Zhou didn't seem to understand at all, but thinking that this was a good opportunity to bring down Jiang Ruan Xi, why should he worry about anything else?

"This silver was indeed given by Jiang Ruan Xi." Zhou said loudly.

"Nonsense, old madam. Madam is your daughter-in-law. How can you open your eyes and tell lies?" Hongye, who had returned a long time ago, happened to be here. Seeing them slandering Jiang Ruan Xi like this, he was afraid that she was being bullied and stood up. Speak for Jiang Ruanxi.

Zhou admitted it so carelessly. If Jiang Ruanxi was blamed for this matter, she would be more unjust than Dou E. "Our wife gave us 10,000 taels of silver, but she doesn't know that you used the money to pay for water loans. How come this matter has been attributed to our wife? This is obviously because you are greedy and want to do it. Things that hurt people."

"Shut up, you are just a servant. You have no right to interrupt when our master is talking."

Before Hongye finished speaking, he was directly scolded by Kang Zhou.

Hongye was very aggrieved, but he also knew that she was talking, so she could only keep her mouth shut unwillingly.

Jiang Ruanxi's eyes turned cold.

"Master Qingtian, although this girl said something ugly, she also admitted that Jiang Ruanxi gave the money, didn't she? No matter what, this matter is also related to the reputation of the Lin family, and it will not be of any benefit to you, so why not forget it?"

Lin Shu was stunned, obviously not expecting Kang Zhou to have this mentality.

Mrs. Zhou also understood what Mrs. Kang Zhou meant. Although she couldn't get rid of Ruan Xi by dragging her into the river, it was still worthwhile if she could save Mrs. Kang Zhou.

"Yes, Jiang Ruanxi did give me ten thousand taels of silver and asked me to do this business."

Kang Zhou curled his lips. Even his stupid sister admitted it. Let's see how Jiang Ruan Xi still quibbles this time.

"Lin Shu, although you are an official, you are still a member of the Lin family. This time we also know that we were wrong. If you give us a chance, we will definitely change it. We can't let you become an official. If a person does something wrong, do you have to kill him immediately?"

Jiang Ruanxi looked at the pretentious people in front of him, but didn't say anything, just quietly watching their ugly behavior.

Lin Shu's face turned red with anger. Kang Zhou thought he was embarrassed and started to add fuel to the fire, "Oh, I know it was not easy for you to be an official just now, but this kind of thing, as time goes by, you will slowly got used to."

Are you getting used to it?
Before everyone understood what she meant, Kang Zhou had a few banknotes in his hand, and they were stuffed into Lin Shu's hand.

Hongye opened her mouth in shock. Is this Kangzhou's bribery?
The corner of Jiang Ruan Xi's mouth twitched, and just watching her quietly committing suicide made her feel a little happy in her heart.

It feels like your enemy, before you take action, the other party will commit suicide and hit the knife edge.

Lin Shu's face became even redder and redder. Kang Zhou only thought it was his first time doing such a thing and thought he was embarrassed. He became more "considerate" and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Lin, we are still relatives after all. We will keep this kind of thing a secret for you."

"That's enough." Lin Shu threw away the banknote in his hand as if it was some dirty thing.

Anger and shame climbed into his heart, and Lin Shu was extremely angry.

He is a scholar, so he naturally has his own bottom line. Kang Zhou's actions now undoubtedly trample his dignity under his feet.

Kang Zhou was stunned, thinking in her heart that the person in front of her was a fool?
Don't like money?

But shouldn’t it? Are there people in this world who don’t love money?

Looking at the banknotes that he threw away as a hot potato, he thought he thought they were too few, so he reached out and took out a stack of banknotes from his arms, "Mr. Lin, I am not polite enough, I will give you another five thousand taels... …”

Money can make all the difference. If one banknote can't solve the problem, how many more will it take?
