Huanxi Farm: Pick up a husband for farming

Chapter 130

The sky was bright, and a little blue color appeared in the clouds, and when everything was awakened, a sneaky figure slipped into the room containing water, and the sound caused by opening the door was enough to wake up a sleeping person.

Seeing the black shadow coming in through the door, Rong Shui jumped out of bed in fright, and was about to scream, when a voice came: "Second Sister is me! I'm Younger Sister, Brother Shanhu will be interrogated today , I want to go to court with you to testify for him."

Rong Shui caressed his overly frightened heart, thinking that he had never noticed Rong Xiaomei playing tricks before, so he said angrily: "You can't go anywhere today! If you dare to run to the county government office, I won't go either, look Who will save you, big brother Shanhu?"

When Miss Rong heard this, she became impatient and shouted, "Second Sister, Second Sister! Is it okay if I'm wrong? I just don't go! You have to save Big Brother Shanhu!"

While putting on his clothes, Rong Shui looked at Xiaomei Rong scratching her ears and cheeks with cold eyes, and said, "Then go back to my room immediately, and eat raw as soon as mother calls me."

Rong Shui had his own considerations for not letting Rong Xiaomei go to the county government. First, he was afraid that this girl would not be able to stop her from giving testimony in the hall. Second, she was afraid that she would see Shan Hu's injuries in the prison. Post gaffe.

Rong Xiaomei was resentful, although she couldn't quite understand Rong Shui's request, she still accepted Rong Shui's order unconditionally, and left her room without turning her head.

Only one sentence was left: "Second Sister, I will wait at home for you to rescue Big Brother Shanhu, so I won't make your mother worry."

Rong Shui hugged the quilt, and Lai lay on it to make full psychological preparations for today's trial before packing up and going out.

She got the evidence from Er Qiangzi and Zhao Yu last night and found it in the "Exquisite Carpenter's Workshop" yesterday. She was confident, but she was afraid of side effects, so she hurriedly edited a book.

Before the official opening of the trial in the county yamen court, the common people were watching curiously at the door. This case about bandit buying and killing caused an unprecedented upsurge of attention in the entire Jiangcheng.

Women, Taoists, and idlers in the east and west alleys gathered in the county government offices, eating melon seeds and chewing their tongues.

When Rong Shui saw this scene, his head was full of black lines, why do people from Jiangcheng like to watch the excitement so much? ...However, is it not a kind of support to gain the power of public opinion?
Just as he was about to try to pass through the crowd with his petite figure again, he only heard a loud "pop!" from inside.

The commotion of the crowd came to an abrupt end, Huang Zhiduan sat on the county magistrate's position above the court, and said in a stern voice: "Open the court, and escort Shan Hu, the bandit leader of Huchangzhai, and Zhou Jiakun, Zhou's cloth village, to the court."

On both sides of the yamen, the yamen escorted the two men to kneel in the lobby.

When Rong Shui saw it, Shan Hu's injuries were much better than yesterday's. It seemed that the two jailers who had received the money wanted to do their best.

Zhou Jiakun bowed first and said: "Master County Magistrate, I want to sue Shanhu, the leader of Huchangzhai, for coercing others into adultery, and jointly killing Rongshui, the son of the Rong family, with him."

Seeing Zhou Jiakun's treachery with his own eyes, Shan Hu was even more disdainful, and said through gritted teeth: "My lord, I want to sue Zhou Jiakun twice for buying murder and forging evidence."

Huang Zhi patted the table with his hands, and asked: "You two are strange, and the crimes you accused each other are not the same. I have seen and verified the evidence Zhou Jiakun presented in court yesterday. Since Shan Hu Do you have any evidence to sue Zhou Jiakun?"

Zhou Jiakun looked at Shanhu triumphantly, full of confidence, how could this bandit produce any evidence?Big joke!
At this time, a yamen servant whispered in Huang Zhi's ear, Huang Zhi frowned, but still shouted: "The witness of Chuanshanhu, let the water go to the hall."

Rong Shui passed through the crowd in response, walked respectfully to the hall, saluted first, and then said: "Master Huang and all the elders who are on blind dates must be very surprised that I am Shan Hu's witness, here I first make a point, Shan Hu He is not related to me, so I testify for him to find out that the person who wants to kill me is not him, and everyone who is willing to help him find out the real behind-the-scenes, now I will tell the whole story on his behalf and expose Zhou Jiakun's lies."

After Rong Shui finished speaking, Zhou Jiakun said sarcastically, "Hehe...it's not relative, not acquaintance, I don't know if there is some shady business? The dignified Miss Rong family still wants to help the gang of bandits who kidnapped her!"

These remarks resonated with the masses, and no one could have imagined that Rong Shui's actions would actually help the bandits.

Huang Zhi said sharply: "Presumptuous Zhou Jiakun! How can you be openly insulted in the court!"

Zhou Jiakun fell silent for a moment.

Rong Shui thanked Huang Zhi, and then began to sort out Zhou Jiakun's evidence one by one.

She first asked someone to bring the wooden box that Zhou Jiakun sued Shanhu yesterday, and the yamen servant took the first piece of evidence submitted by Zhou Jiakun, and Rong Shui said: "Zhou Jiakun, you said yesterday that this box was used by Shanhu and others when they bought you. A box to hold belongings? This box looks luxurious and exquisite, and it doesn’t look like bandits in humble places like Huchangzhai would use it.”

Zhou Jiakun retorted: "This bandit is naturally not someone who uses these exquisite objects, but don't forget that since bandits usually smash and rob, how many boxes can't be snatched? Hmph..."

Rong Shui smiled and said nothing, and said, "If things are as you said, I would like to ask Mr. Huang, other than this box of property, did he seize any other valuables when he went up the mountain to suppress the bandits?"

This is also Huang Zhi's doubts, he shook his head.

It stands to reason that a group of gangsters should have some property. They dug three feet in Huchangzhai that day but failed to find anything. Later, they tried to interrogate Shanhu in the prison without any results.

So he signaled Rong Shui to continue talking with his eyes.

Rongshui received the instruction and said, "Although Shanhu and his gang are bandits, their lives are tight because they never looted the people's property, let alone bribed Zhou Jiakun with money to kill me together! The fact is that Zhou Jiakun wanted to get the mine. , use money to hire Shanhu to kidnap me."

Zhou Jiakun wasn't afraid at all right now, although he was curious how Rong Shui knew he was behind the scenes, but so what?Just relying on girl Rong's talk of a lotus blossom on her tongue is just her guess, can it compare to his real evidence?

So Zhou Jiakun said unhurriedly: "Miss Rong, stop telling jokes. How can there be any kind of bandits and rogues in the world? I don't know how they lied to you. Ask these people if they believe it? Does Master Huang believe it? It's just that Hiding the money, you think they are kind and never robbed civilians? Hahaha... this girl is so naive!"

Following Zhou Jiakun's guidance, although there were some rumors of robbing the rich and helping the poor among the local people in Huchang Village, after all, everyone in the world was talking about gangsters, and gradually some people in the crowd laughed at Rong Shui along with Zhou Jiakun.

Rongshui is not afraid of humiliation, but just presents his own evidence to persuade.

She looked at the crowd, calmly and indifferently, and said: "If you say that he has hidden money, but show evidence, Master Huang led so many elite soldiers to search Huchangya to the bottom and failed to find it. Isn't it questionable?" Master Huang's ability? How can you be allowed to guess indiscriminately in the courtroom."

As expected, Huang Zhi's expression was not very good, Rong Shui said again: "Since you said that the box was sent by Shanhu, then let's see what it is?"

Rong Shui slowly took out the original drawing of the wooden box borrowed from the "Exquisite Carpenter's Workshop" yesterday, showed it in front of Zhou Jiakun, and then handed it to Huang Zhi.

Zhou Jiakun and Huang Zhi looked at it and found that the evidence wooden box was exactly as it was in the painting.

The two were puzzled, and Huang Zhi asked: "Rong Shui, what do you mean? What is the relationship between the painting in this painting and this wooden box?"

Rong Shui said: "My lord does not know that this painting was originally an exclusive wooden box product customized for Zhou Jiakun's mansion in the exquisite carpenter's workshop on West Street. The boxes made in their shop for each mansion have unique shapes, so This kind of box is only owned by the Zhou family in Jiangcheng, please send someone to the Zhou mansion to search immediately, sir."

Zhou Jiakun wanted to argue about something, but Huang Zhi waved his hand and ordered people to go there immediately. After a while, the yamen servants brought back four or five wooden boxes of the same size.

Zhou Jiakun was a little flustered at this point, and hurriedly said: "It's unbelievable! My lord, who knows if this girl Rongshui is colluding with some carpenter's shop to talk nonsense!"

Huang Zhi didn't care about his forced sophistry at all, and asked people to bring carpenters from the exquisite carpentry workshop to the court.

He just asked indifferently: "Do you know this box? What the woman said just now is in line with the rules in your store? What can prove that the box was made by you?"

The carpenter had never seen Rongshui, and was just invited by the yamen servant to testify in the yamen, so he was at a loss at this time.

He looked at Zhou Jiakun and then at Rongshui, causing Huang Zhi to remind him: "You just need to tell the truth, if there is something hidden in the courtroom, I will punish you!"

After all, he is a petty citizen, so the carpenter was frightened when he heard it, and quickly told the truth: "My lord, what the woman said just now is true. Every box in our store is designated to be sold to a family, and the box in the hall is indeed ours. It's specially made for the Zhou family, if you don't believe me, there is a word Zhou engraved on the left side of the box."

Immediately sent someone to check it, and sure enough there was a small word "Zhou" on the bottom of the side, the crowd was in an uproar, and everyone had a judgment on who the box belonged to.

Huang Zhi also suddenly realized that Zhou Jiakun couldn't deny it now.

Zhou Jiakun never expected that the evidence he had tried in every possible way would be used by Rong Shui and become his trump card to turn him around.

In fact, Huang Zhi had suspected that Zhou Jiakun had something to do with the whole thing, and the reason he said was so far-fetched, but because there was no evidence, he did not expect Rong Shui to find the key physical evidence, which was really satisfying.

Huang Zhikun: "Zhou Jiakun, do you have any excuses now? The evidence you presented for Huchangzhai's bribery is just that you took it from your own house and bought Huchangzhai to kidnap Rongshui for you!"

At this time, Zhou Jiakun was in a state of confusion, cursing Zhao Er, who was not doing well, in his heart. Seeing that he had no way to argue, he had no choice but to talk about him.

He said again: "My lord, the villain was just confused for a while, but I never wanted to kill Miss Rong! I just told Shan Hu to tie up Miss Rong to scare her, and then sent her down the mountain! I Death is not a crime!"

Shanhu shot at Zhou Jiakun with fierce eyes, and cursed: "Fart! The first time you didn't intend to kill, but the second time you sent your servant to come up and tell us to kill us!"
