Chapter 211

"The ones ahead are Miss Liu Jiasan and Mrs. Liu?"

The county magistrate walked down slowly from the sedan chair, and the crowd automatically parted a way to let the county magistrate come over.

Mrs. Liu, who was in the sedan chair, was silent for a while, and finally walked out of the sedan chair.

Today's Mrs. Liu is dressed in a violet beige and a light purple pleated skirt, with a dignified demeanor, and still retains some of her youthful beauty in her eyebrows.

The sharp eyes fell on the county magistrate, and Mrs. Liu's eyes were a bit cold.

"Why is the county magistrate here?"

There was a bit of disgust in his tone.

Is she being served by someone? I am used to those people looking at her with low eyebrows, but now even when facing high-ranking officials, she still has a bit of arrogance in her bones, as if she looks down on this mere seventh-rank person. magistrate.

The county magistrate was not angry, he said calmly.

"I heard that someone reported to the official that Mrs. Liu led people to block the gate of Xiao's other courtyard, and wanted to use this to force the child in the womb of Mrs. Xiao's young lady to death, so as to harm people's lives. It's big, so I'll come over and have a look."

His eyes swept over the group of people present, and then at Liu Dieyi lying on the stretcher.

"Is there something that Mrs. Liu can't solve slowly? I heard that Miss Liu San is just a little moon, but now you carry her out to bask in the sun and blow the cold wind like this. Those who understand know your intentions, and those who don't understand I thought you treated the concubine harshly."

"Bastard! Who dares to spread such false rumors? It is obvious that Su Niuniu murdered the child in the womb of my third lady, and made the Luo family give up my third lady with an excuse. She is really a thief calling for a thief. The county magistrate also believes it? I Now it's just a visit to ask for justice, the county magistrate is going to slander me for treating the concubine daughter harshly!"

Mrs. Liu shouted angrily, her sharp voice almost pierced people's eardrums, but it sounded like sophistry to the ears of the surrounding people.

"Madam Liu, don't worry, I'm just giving you an example. If Madam doesn't like me, just don't say anything, but since someone has come to complain, I can't just ignore it. I hope Madam Liu can understand. "

The county magistrate looked like he was doing business, and he waved his hand and directly directed at the yamen servant behind him.

"Take Mrs. Liu to the yamen, and I will try the case."

Hearing what the county magistrate said, Mrs. Liu became anxious immediately.

Raising his hand, he slapped the yamen servant who was walking towards him, and shouted angrily.

"You bastard! You people can come and touch Madam Ben casually! Get the hell out of here."

It was the yamen servant who was almost unsteady from Mrs. Liu's slap, his cheeks were swollen high, and there was a bit of anger in his eyes, but he didn't dare to act rashly before the county magistrate gave orders.

Until the magistrate's face darkened, he angrily reprimanded Mrs. Liu.

"Mrs. Liu, do you know that it is a serious crime to do something to the yamen servants! I am worried that these yamen servants will not take good care of you, so I came to pick you up to the county government with good intentions, but now you want to do it? Someone, handcuff it for me!"

Seeing that his lord suddenly turned his face and refused to recognize anyone, the beaten Yamen servant immediately took out the shackles from his body, grabbed Mrs. Liu and handcuffed her without any hesitation.

Unexpectedly, the county magistrate even dared to copy his own wife so casually. Mrs. Liu was furious for a moment, but fortunately, the nurse beside her still had some sense.

"Ma'am, don't be impatient. The county magistrate is Su Niuniu's now. Anyway, he doesn't dare to do anything to you. It's better to follow him. Su Niuniu will definitely come to court. Otherwise, we don't know what to do." How long will you wait?"

Mammy's words were right, Mrs. Liu temporarily suppressed the anger in her heart, raised her hand and pushed the yamen servant away, and said angrily.

"Get out of the way, I'll go by myself."

Then, the county magistrate ordered Liu Dieyi to be carried on the stretcher and left with him.

Before leaving, he whispered instructions to the master who came with him.

"You go and invite the eldest and young lady of the Xiao family, and then go to Qiangwei Xiaozhu to invite Mrs. Luo and Mrs. Lao Hou together."

In this case, Su Niuniu's orders have already been fulfilled. As for the next trial, since it is open to the public, it must not be biased, so Su Niuniu can figure out a way by herself.

When the news came in, Su Chongdai was having dinner with Xiao Junmo, and the master didn't dare to disturb Su Chongdai and Xiao Junmo's meal, so he could only carefully wait for them.

"Master, you've worked hard. Compared to now, you haven't eaten yet. Why don't you take advantage of this time to go to the small hall to have some melon and fruit snacks. I don't know when the class will start soon."

Immediately, Chong Dai ordered people to take the master down and eat some melons and fruits for snacks.

The master was flattered, and hurriedly thanked him, thinking that the young lady of the Xiao family was really kind to people, but he was just a little master, and it was really rare that he could still think of his stomach.

About half an hour later, Su Chongdai and Xiao Junmo left the Xiao's courtyard and headed towards the yamen.

At this time, the common people surrounding the gate of Xiao's other courtyard had already left. They heard that there was a lot of excitement and had already hurriedly waited at the gate of the county government office for the opening of the trial.

This time the people who are going to be interrogated are the Liu family of Qiushui town and the eldest wife of the Xiao family of Lanling, and even the senior officials of the capital and Mrs. Lao Hou are also going to be interrogated, which is unprecedented for a small county government. Yes, such excitement is probably rare in a hundred years. Who wants to lose themselves?

"When will the people from the Xiao family and the Luo family arrive? Their legs will be broken!"

The people in front of the queue saw that the other two families hadn't arrived yet, and complained anxiously for a while.

People at the back of the queue desperately want to squeeze forward, but find that the crowd in front is full of people, how can they squeeze in?He could only stand on his feet, stretch his neck, desperately looking towards here, and desperately asking questions.

"Is the class open? Is the class open?"

At this time, the Luo family's carriage had already driven into the back door of the county government office, followed by the Xiao family's carriage.

For people like the Luo family and the Xiao family, the county magistrate naturally made special arrangements. It was already too much to let them be in court. If they were not treated differently, it would be too offensive.

Xiao Junmo helped Su Chongdai just get off the carriage when he saw Luo Xiuyuan waiting for Su Chongdai with a black face of resentment, while Mrs. Hou standing beside Luo Xiuyuan was leaning on a cane, looking at her with a puzzled expression. With Su Chongdai.

After a while, Madam Hou finally couldn't bear to come forward and asked Su Chongdai.

"Mrs. Xiao, what is going on? Why..."
