Great Lawyer

Chapter 141 The Defendant's Counterclaim ([-])

Everyone looked at each other.

"What should I do?" Dou Rongxing said.

Du Jiuyan pointed to the back, "I'm going to see the latrine." She said, stomping to the latrine at the back. This scene made her seem familiar, and she remembered that the case in Zhujia Village last time was also related to the latrine.

She rubbed her forehead and stopped outside the toilet.

The inside was cleaned up better than she had imagined. Chickens, ducks and other poultry were locked in a fence not far away, and there was still an egg on the haystack inside.

"This latrine is very close to the main house." Du Jiuyan turned to look at the back door of Miao's house, walked through the hall and walked out from the back door, just a few steps away.

She turned her head and asked Qian Daoan who followed, "Did the cripple just say whether the back door was closed or open last night?"

"It is said to be closed." Qian Daoan said.

Du Jiuyan snorted, walked around to the front yard, and said as he walked, "It's a bit strange..."

"What's so strange?" Qian Dao'an asked.

Du Jiuyan shook his head, "The whole case is strange, but I can't tell what is strange."

"This day, if the body is not buried, I'm afraid it won't take a few days..." Zhou Xiaozheng stood outside and said to the villagers: "Fellows in the village, can you persuade Miao Yi to deal with the funeral quickly."

"I am Lizheng from the village." A not tall and fat old man came out, cupped his hands and said, "Don't worry, we will persuade him when he comes back. But if you can help him, please help him too. Having a child is not easy, I managed to save some property and marry a wife, but I never thought that such a thing would happen."

"But she said it was her mother's soul who told him about the murderer." Dou Rongxing said, "It's not justified."

With a bluff on his face, he said: "People can lie, but ghosts can't lie. If you don't believe me, go away." As he said, he waved his hand to signal them to leave.

Zhou Xiao looked back at Du Jiuyan.

"Let's go," Du Jiuyan walked into the city in silence, "We'll talk about it when we go back to the city."

Song Jiyi said: "Want, want, go, Yamen, door?" He wanted to stop Miao from reporting to the official.

"Go and see Chen Xing'an." Du Jiuyan said, "I don't know what kind of poison he took."

Chen Xing'an was lying in the hospital, his lips pale. The doctor said that he had eaten some Aconitum aconitum, but fortunately it was delivered in time. After drinking two bowls of licorice juice, he woke up.

Du Jiuyan asked, "Is there an antidote for the grass-headed black worm?"

"It can be solved in a short period of time, but if it takes a long time, even the Daluo Immortal will not be able to save it." The doctor said.

Du Jiuyan nodded, walked to the bedside and looked at Chen Xing'an, "Are you okay?"

"Why did you save me?" Chen Xing'an's tears were broken threads like beads, crying silently, very desperate, "Brother Xing said that I killed his family. I will pay for my life with my life. As long as I die, Yi You don't hate me anymore."

"Why did he say that you killed his whole family? What do you think is the reason?" Du Jiuyan said.

Chen Xing'an returned his gaze and landed on Du Jiuyan, "He said it was the aunt who said it, and the soul of the aunt told him that I killed her." Then he closed his eyes again, "I explained, Brother Xing If you don’t believe me, he said he will sue me, I... I might as well die.”

"Even if Hun said it, there should be a reason. What do you think? Is there any grudge between you?" Du Jiuyan asked.

Chen Xing'an shook his head, "No, brother Yi is very kind to me, very very kind."

"His parents still have Su Niang, how are they treating you?"

Chen Xing settled down for a while, nodded and said, "Okay, they are all very nice to me."

"He's gone to the government now." Du Jiuyan said, "Do you want to explain to him?"

Chen Xing'an shook his head, "I can't explain it, he doesn't believe me." He said looking at Du Jiuyan, "Mr. Du, I know you, you are the most famous litigator in Shaoyang City."

"Can you tell me Brother Xing, I really didn't kill them." He choked up again as he spoke, "Let him, let him not hate me, I don't want to lose him as a brother."

Du Jiuyan frowned, shook his head and said, "I can't persuade you, I'm afraid you have to go in person."

"If you really didn't kill anyone, he will understand when he wakes up." Qian Daoan stepped forward and said: "If you die now, it will be another blow to him. He has already suffered Can't hold back any blows."

Chen Xing'an was taken aback, "What will happen to him?"

"You'll be mentally disturbed, you'll collapse, and you'll even commit suicide." Qian Dao'an said.

Chen Xing'an got up suddenly, "Then I'll go back, I'll go find Brother Yi, even if he kills me, I will stay with him."

He said, and stumbled out.

"Leaving again, why are you always talking about it." Dou Rongxing looked at Du Jiuyan with a dazed expression, "What do you do now, don't you care?"

Du Jiuyan shook his head, "I don't know either, this case...is very strange."

"I'll go back and have a look." The cripple paid the medicine money and went back to the Yamen, while Du Jiuyan and the others went back to Sanchitang.

Du Jiuyan leaned on the newly bought soft couch, shook his head with the fan of the patriarch, looked at the roof... Song Jiyi pointed to Du Jiuyan, and said to Dou Rongxing: "Jiu, Brother Jiu, what are you thinking about?" ?”

"I'm thinking about Miao Yi's case." Dou Rongxing said, "Brother Nine said there are some things she can't figure out."

Song Jiyi snorted and nodded.

Du Jiuyan did not accept Miao Yi's lawsuit, nor did the yamen accept it. After repeated investigations, Shen Jun proved that the deaths of the three members of the Miao family were determined to be bandits. Fucheng wholesaled 150 taels of silver and asked Fu Tao to compensate Miao. righteous.

This is all that can be done, the bandit is dead, and if he can pay some money, the government has done its best.

Du Jiuyan was very free. When he came in the morning, he would lean on the soft couch to read a book, take a nap, and wait for dinner. After two days at noon, a middle-aged man suddenly came. Dou Rongxing welcomed him in and asked, "Who are you?" To sue?"

"Yes!" The man introduced himself: "Chen Xingbo, I want to sue Miao Yi for injuring my brother, let him accompany my brother for medical expenses, and send him to jail."

Dou Rongxing let out a cry, and said in astonishment: "You...you are Chen Xing'an's brother?"

"Yes!" Chen Xingbo said: "My younger brother is Chen Xing'an. He had one leg and one rib broken by Miao Yi the day before yesterday. He is still lying in the inn, unable to get up. The doctor said that he might not survive. .”

Dou Rongxing was dumbfounded, and couldn't help turning to look at Du Jiuyan.

"You want to sue Miao Yi for hurting someone?" Du Jiuyan looked at Chen Xingbo, "Have you asked your brother if he agrees to sue?"

Chen Xingbo said: "He has nothing to agree to or disagree with, I just want to sue. I sympathize with his family's death, but I can't insist on relying on my brother, saying that he killed him. He also forced my brother to commit suicide and beat me. Brother. I will sue such a heartless person."

"Then we can't accept it." Du Jiuyan said: "To be honest, Miao Yi came to Sanchitang to sue Chen Xing'an for murder a few days ago, but we didn't accept it. It is impossible to accept your lawsuit today."

Chen Xingbo said: "It's unreasonable for him to accuse my brother of murder, but many people saw my brother being injured by him."

"Why don't you answer?"

Du Jiuyan said: "Because there are some things I don't understand, and I can't forcefully give an answer to the things I don't understand."

"What is this?" Chen Xingbo said: "If you don't pick it up, you will pull it down. I will go to the southwest."

As he said, he slammed the door and left. Dou Rongxing was puzzled, "Brother Nine, this matter...is getting more and more complicated."

Du Jiuyan continued flipping through the files.

"Do you think Southwest will borrow this lawsuit?" Qian Daoan raised his head and asked Du Jiuyan in his busy schedule.

Du Jiuyan shook his head, "No! Although Miao Yi beat someone, everyone is more emotionally inclined to him. This lawsuit won't make any sense."

"I think so too." Dou Rongxing nodded, "It's not justice, it's not seeking the truth, it's not helping the weak...it's so complicated, it's just thankless."

Du Jiuyan twitched his lips and said, "Our Mr. Dou has made great progress."

"That's it!" Dou Rongxing laughed.

Song Jiyi looked at everyone, and ran out quickly, Dou Rongxing shouted: "What are you doing?"

"He probably went to inquire about the news, wondering if Southwest will accept Chen Xingbo's lawsuit." Du Jiuyan looked at the time, "I'm going home to eat and sleep."

She yawned, threw the book on the soft couch, and walked out slowly with her hands behind her back.

"Father!" Little Luobo lay on the door and looked at him, "Have you been free recently?"

Du Jiuyan said vigilantly: "No, you want me to accompany you, but I still don't have time."

"No." Little Luobo said, "If you are free, then let's go to Xinhua. I really miss Uncle Silver Hand."

Du Jiuyan was really tempted. He led his son in, thought for a while, and said, "Okay. Let's discuss it when your lame uncle comes back in the evening. Let's go to Xinhua together, see Yinshou, and then play and relax. "

"En, um." Little Luobo nodded repeatedly, "Father, can you lend me your machete to play with for a while?"

Du Jiuyan stared at him as he untied the knife and handed it to him, "What are you going to do with my knife?"

The little radish said: "I'm chopping vegetables. I want to feed the chicken."

Du Jiuyan really heard the crowing of the chick, and she asked, "The chick that Mr. bought for you?"

"Huh?" Xiaoluobo nodded and said, "I bought five roosters and fifteen hens. The husband said that after a few months, the hens will be able to lay eggs, and then the eggs will be able to hatch chicks, and the chicks will turn into eggs." A hen and a chick..."

As she said that, her eyes rolled into a smile, "Mom, a chicken can be sold for more than ten yuan, and an egg costs two yuan. I... I think I'm going to get rich."

"Relying on raising chickens?" Du Jiuyan said.

Little Carrot followed behind her buttocks, gesticulating with her fingers, "Think about it, a chicken can lay eggs in three months, two eggs a day, I have fifteen hens, and it costs sixty yuan a day , a month is a penny, and a year is a dozen taels of silver."

"Also, and. The chickens will also change a lot. After six months, I may receive a hundred eggs a day, and then I will sell some roosters and hens for two hundred Wen a day."

Little Carrot lay on the table, his fingers fluttering like a planner, "Is it, can I make a fortune?"

"Yes!" Du Jiuyan gave a thumbs up, "My son is smart and can do it!"

Little Carrot looked forward to it.

"It's a day with me." Chen Lang came in with a bowl of pear soup, "He said that his chicken will be responsible for the family's expenses in the future."

Du Jiuyan took a sip of the sweet soup, and said to Little Radish, "First you raise these twenty chickens and grow them up. When they grow up, let the master kill them and cook them for you to drink."

"No." Like the old hen, Xiaoluo ran over to protect the chicken cover in the corner, "My chickens are reserved for laying eggs, so they cannot be killed."

Du Jiuyan rolled her eyes at her son, and suddenly something jumped out of her heart. She froze for a moment, and stood there in a daze...

Miao Yi's chickens also lay eggs, why did his mother kill them in the middle of the night?

"Jiuyan." Seeing her face darken, Chen Lang was startled, Xiao Luobo ran over and hissed: "My father is thinking about things, she has been thinking about things recently."

Chen Lang nodded, and everyone dared not disturb Du Jiuyan.

Du Jiuyan took a sip of the sweet soup, frowning tightly, and suddenly she stood up, put down the bowl, and Chen Lang asked, "You want to go out?"

"I'm going to find Shen Jun." Du Jiuyan said as he walked, Chen Lang said: "I want to understand something, so I went to him?"

Du Jiuyan hummed, opened the door and left.

"I... inspired my dad, right?" Little Luobo and Chen Lang said.

Chen Lang smiled and said: "Yes! You inspired your father, and made her suddenly understand something that she hasn't figured out in the past few days."

Here, Chen Xingbo went to Southwest to apply for a lawsuit, but he was rejected. He came out angrily, and as soon as he arrived at the gate of Southwest, someone posted it, saying: "Mr. De, our Mingde has been established for a hundred years and has a profound foundation, and every litigator has rich experience, which will definitely satisfy you."

Chen Xingbo stopped and looked at the speaker. This person had a handsome face and was about 25 or [-] years old. He smiled kindly, "Who are you?"

"I will sue Yu Ke in Mingde!" Yu Ke smiled and handed over his business card, "Sir, the Southwest is not doing well now, and they dare not take ordinary cases, for fear of confronting Du Jiuyan, being suppressed by him and losing face. But we are not afraid of Du Jiuyan. Du Jiuyan is just taking the edge of his sword. It may be useful for such a person to suppress orthodox litigators in the Southwest, but it is of no use to us."

"Sir, do you want to try?" Yu Ke said with a smile.

Chen Xingbo nodded, "Okay, then I'll ask you to be my brother's litigator, and you must sue Miao Yi and go to jail!"

His younger brother was at home, and the whole family loved him like a baby. He stayed at Miao Yi's house for a few days. Not only was he suspected of being the murderer, but he was also severely injured.

Miao Yi is not a thing.

If he didn't sue, he couldn't swallow the bad breath.
