Reborn Farmhouse: Planting Fields, Flirting with People

Chapter 293 Opening the Trial (2)

Hezhi County has solved countless cases, and from the reactions of the few of them, he also saw something was wrong. He did not rush to interrogate the suspect, but continued to say to old man Li: "You will tell me the details one by one."

Old man Li's scalp was numb, but he didn't turn his head back. Now that the matter has gotten to this point, he has no choice but to confirm the rumors.

After he settled his mind, the old man Li replied sadly: "Li Shou was the old man's second son, because his mother and I favored the younger son, this rebellious son was jealous, and secretly stole the family's ancestral secret book.

Then he used the excuse to make trouble and tried to separate the family. In a fit of anger, the old man expelled him from the house.

From then on, Nizi cut off contact with my family.Later, Nizi opened a workshop based on the secret books handed down from his ancestors and made thousands of taels of silver.The old man was seriously ill a few years ago, and his family was so poor that he couldn't get rid of it. He was worried about borrowing money from his family, but he asked that cruel son-in-law to call him out... The son-in-law said that he had broken off the relationship with us, and we were not allowed to visit the house again..."

Speaking of the sad place, the old man Li also squeezed out a few drops of old tears. He bent his waist and raised his sleeves to wipe away the tears... That appearance made those who heard it sad, and those who listened to tears.

Outside the courtroom, someone started talking in a low voice, and a few soft-hearted women wiped their tears sadly.

"This old man is so pitiful, how thin he has become, and look at his unfilial son, smooth and smooth, how much meat he eats to grow his fat body."

"Bah! His son is not human at all! He is not as good as a beast! This kind of person should be dragged directly to Caishikou and beheaded!"

"That's right! It's not an exaggeration to beat someone to death with a stick like this!"

The onlookers were discussing and passionate, and they were overwhelmingly on the side of old man Li.

"Snapped!"

"quiet!"

He Zhixian frowned, and slapped the gavel again.

Only then did the people outside the hall quiet down.

He Zhixian turned to ask Master Feng who was next to Li and: "Can you record the testimony that Li Jiaxing said just now?"

Master Feng nodded: "Return to your lord, it has been recorded."

"Take a signature and pledge with him."

Old man Li tremblingly signed his name on the black and white paper, and then pressed a bright red thumbprint with cinnabar ink pad.

Next, Hezhi County began to interrogate Li Shou.

"Suspect Li Shou, can you plead guilty to what Li Jiaxing said just now?"

Li Shou knelt in the middle of the court, straightened his waist, and replied decisively: "I don't admit it! People are doing it, and the sky is watching. The grassroots are doing things, and they are worthy of the conscience of heaven and earth."

He Zhixian raised his eyebrows: "Since you have not pleaded guilty, what is there to distinguish?"

Li Shou shook his head, with a sad expression on his face: "They have raised the grassroots for more than [-] years. Although they have broken the relationship between father and son, they are still the elders of the grassroots... Now that they are going to court, it is not what the grassroots want, and the grassroots dare not say they Half of it is not."

His answer in this way was beyond everyone's expectation, but it was reasonable.

For Li Shou's answer, Mrs. Li was not moved at all.She had already adapted to the environment of the court at this time, and she felt a little smug in her heart, feeling that her family had already won.

She glared at Li Shou triumphantly: "Huh! What I said was better than what I sang, it's clearly a guilty conscience! I don't know what I did in my previous life to be born with such an evil as you!"

The old man Li on the side quickly pulled the old woman: "Shut up! In the courtroom, you are not allowed to talk nonsense!"
