Chapter 411 The Weird Inn (1)
There was nothing to say all the way, a group of people hurried and took a small road to the Yamen, which happened to be the end of Shenshi in the afternoon.

In winter, it gets dark early and it's time to hold the lanterns.

There has been no homicide in the county for two years, and the county magistrate has always had a sense of accomplishment, so he was very annoyed that this bad incident happened on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

It was time to go to the Yamen, in order to take care of the Zhang family and his party, the county magistrate specially postponed the trial time.

Mo Yan expressed admiration for the county magistrate's rigorous spirit, otherwise, who would like to wait until dark, since people are already dead anyway, and it's the same if the trial is delayed until tomorrow.

At the gate of the yamen, there were a few people watching the excitement standing here and there, all of them came out after dinner to digest their food.

In the evening, there was a cold wind, the wind was strong, and the branches whistled. The people shrank their heads and stomped their feet on the spot. When they saw a group of people coming, they immediately became more energetic.

The case could not be settled within a day, and the Zhang family could not go back, so Mo Yan sent people to the gate of the yamen, and went to the street to find an inn with Wanqi Yuling.

The people have not recovered from the joy of the New Year, there are not many shops opened on the street, and some shopkeepers from afar are still on the way.

Mo Yan asked a few inns, all were full, and finally found a relatively remote place, with only a few courtyards in total, which seemed to be converted from private houses.

"The shopkeeper still has a business mind. This kind of house next to the street can be built into an inn."

Mo Yan was not used to sleeping in the same room with Zhang Daya, so this time she and Wan Qi Yuling asked for two rooms alone, and the rest were for the four members of Zhang's family and the villagers who came to testify.

Each room is about the same size, with beds, cabinets, tables and chairs, gauze curtains, thick cotton curtains and so on.

The guest room they are in is the last to enter the courtyard, the lobby and the kitchen are the first to enter, and there is only one tea room in each courtyard, and a woman is in charge of hot water.

"This kind of inn transformed from a residential house is not safe."

A total of five courtyards are scattered in one courtyard, and there are very few staff. Single women must not choose such an inn, otherwise it is easy to be dangerous at night.The inn is full of people, who knows who you will meet.

"Suitable for those who like quiet living."

There is a small garden in every courtyard. In winter, there are not many seasonal plants, adding to the feeling of bleakness.

After everything was arranged, Mo Yan went to Xu's house first according to her memory. She took a lantern and took a picture in the snow at the door. It was dark and she couldn't see clearly, but it seemed that someone had cleaned it. first scene.

The courtyard of Xu's house was pitch black, and they presumably went to the yamen to hear the trial together.

Not getting any clues, Mo Yan was a little disappointed, and rushed to the gate of the yamen again with Wan Qi Yuling.

Some villagers testified that the officials estimated the time based on their footsteps. The murderer could not be Zhang Daya.

Mrs. Xu originally wanted to slander Zhang Daya for buying murder, but the county magistrate is not a fool, so how could he fail to see her selfish intentions!
"Xu Cainiang, this is a court, and every sentence needs evidence. If you can't produce evidence, it's a false accusation!"

The county magistrate is also surnamed Zhang. He has just passed his thirties. He has a serious face and piercing eyes.

"My lord, it's the old lady's lard that has fooled her heart!"

The old lady of the Xu family knelt on the ground with a plop, tears streaming down her face, and kept wiping the corners of her eyes with a crumpled handkerchief.

"Da Ya Zhang is the daughter-in-law of our Xu family. She went back to her mother's house because she had a quarrel with my son. I hate her for being selfish and cold. That's why I said that. There is no evidence. Please forgive me."

The people present felt sad, who can bear the pain of bereavement from a white-haired man to a black-haired man?The behavior is a bit abnormal, which is also understandable.

The old lady of the Xu family is very provocative, turning everyone's disdain into sympathy for her.

"My lord, the little lady has reconciled with Xu Cai."

Zhang Daya and Mrs. Xu have been together for more than five years, and they know Mrs. Xu best. She is greedy for money, powerful, good at acting, sweet-talking and bitter-hearted. No, she can run the train with her mouth in the court.

"Harmony?"

On New Year's Eve, Zhang Daya came back to her mother's house instead of celebrating the New Year at her husband's house, and the villagers began to speculate. After all, Zhang Daya had no children there, and the villagers guessed that she might have been driven back. up.

"Yeah, just a few days before the Chinese New Year."

Zhang Daya did not hide it, because this case related to her vital interests, she must draw a clear line with the Xu family, otherwise there will be no peaceful days in the future.

"Big girl! Ah Cai is gone, don't you still hate him for beating you?"

Mrs. Xu covered her face and wept, speaking very sadly.

At this time, women have no status, and it is normal for men to think about it. Couples who live a life, eat rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea, when their lower lips touch their lower lips, they quarrel at the end of the bed, and the young couple has no knots that cannot be solved.

"Mrs. Xu, what you should care about is not me, but how to find the murderer who killed your son."

Zhang Daya said it very politely, and Li Shu is there, this is evidence, and it is useless to mislead the people's thinking.

"That's your husband-in-law, why don't you feel sad at all, old woman, what crime did I do!"

Mrs. Xu hinted a few words, and she was very annoyed when she saw that Zhang Daya didn't eat oil and salt.According to the plan, she planned to coax Daya Zhang back, and then slowly inquired about the whereabouts of Yin Zi.

"Yes, the most poisonous woman's heart."

The common people outside the door pointed and pointed, and the murder case was transferred to Zhang Daya. The husband and wife were kind for a hundred days, and the man died, and they could still be so calm, as if it had nothing to do with them!
"Old lady Xu, I respect you as an elder, but don't even think about pouring dirty water on my Zhang Daya!"

At the beginning of Mrs. Xu's performance, Zhang Daya didn't take it to heart. Seeing Mrs. Xu's words became more and more outrageous, and the public opinion was one-sided, she couldn't help it.

"Ever since I married into the Xu family, I get up before dawn every day..."

Feeding chickens, feeding pigs, doing laundry, cooking, sewing, serving a large family, and embroidering and netting in spare time to supplement the family income. Every time I went to the market to exchange money, Mrs. Xu would appear immediately because there was no division. Home, money belongs to the public.
