Pick up a killer and farm together

Chapter 190 Why (3)
Mrs. Zhong did not expect her son to win the first prize, so when she heard Liu Ruchun's words, she couldn't help laughing and said, "What do you think about the first prize? It would be nice to be admitted to Jinshi. Although it is not as good as the first prize, it is not difficult to find a job in the city when you come back. , not to mention that since your elder brother is not expected to be an official, he should also learn to do business, this book is impossible to read for the rest of his life!"

"It's true." Liu Ruchun felt that since he failed this time, he wouldn't worry about it in the future, lest he spend his whole life studying and taking the imperial examinations, wouldn't that be a waste of good time?

"By the way, your Aunt Yu brought me a piece of satin yesterday, which is moon-white. I think this color is suitable for this child, Chen. You can come to my room to get it later and make him a robe." Shi only said.

Liu Ruchun didn't respond to her mother's intentions, and only replied: "I've been very busy recently, so I don't have the time to do it, but mother, you've gained a lot of weight recently, it's time to get active."

"You dead girl." Hearing this, Zhong could only laugh and curse helplessly, feeling a little puzzled in her heart, where did her daughter's usual cleverness go, could it be that she really still doesn't understand the relationship between a man and a woman?But it shouldn't be. What she said to herself in the past was also sound.

Liu Ruchun yawned and stood up, "I'll be lazy and take a nap." After saying that, she left the hall, only to hear Aunt Fu's voice, "Girl, Master Zhong is here."

Uncle or Uncle?When Liu Ruchun heard the words, she went to greet her, but saw that the person who came was her second uncle, but saw his face full of urgency, "Second uncle, what happened, why did you come in person?"

As soon as Zhong Erlang received his son's letter, he thought they had been hit, but he didn't want to open it up and saw it was a bolt from the blue. He didn't dare to delay, so he immediately drove the carriage to the countryside himself. "Is your mother there?" Zhong Erlang asked as he hurried over.

Liu Ruchun only nodded quickly, "Yes, it's in the hall!"

"Go into the room and talk." Zhong Erlang's vigilant face signaled Liu Ruchun to also come into the hall.

Liu Ruchun hadn't seen such a anxious look on his face for a long time, so she didn't dare to say anything, but hurriedly turned around and followed him back to the hall.

Mrs. Zhong had heard Aunt Fu's yelling earlier, so she just won, but seeing her second brother's expression was very bad, she immediately became worried, "What happened to my second brother."

Zhong Erlang came into the hall, closed the door, and wanted to speak, but then he thought that his sister was not in good health, and he was afraid that she would not be able to bear it, so he had no choice but to stop.

Zhong Shi beckoned Zhong Erlang to sit down, and asked Liu Ruchun to pour him a glass of mint water, but it was a pity that Zhong Erlang was so full of things at the moment, how could he feel what he was drinking.

"Second brother, let's talk about anything, and there is no one else." Zhong Shi also sat down, and said, not to mention that the door of the hall has been closed by him, is it possible that he is afraid of eavesdropping?

"I'm going to tell you, sister, don't worry, just hold on." Zhong Erlang opened his mouth and only said.

When Mrs. Zhong heard this, she couldn't help laughing, "Second brother, just tell me, there are other storms I haven't experienced."

Liu Ruchun also looked at Zhong Erlang very curiously, could something happen in the store?But it doesn't look like the second uncle looks like a master, does he?But only Zhong Erlang said: "Zhao'er failed to take the imperial examination with Mingxian."

"Why?" Zhong Shi stood up suddenly when she heard the words, her face was full of horror, "Could it be that Zhao'er's illness happened again?" Didn't they heal together after the last injury?what?
Zhong Erlang just shook his head, "Zhao'er is in good health, but it's because..."

"Because of what?" Zhong only asked hastily.

"That's right, Second Uncle, tell me quickly, it makes people anxious to death." Liu Ruchun's heart was also suspended, although she didn't expect to win the first prize, but she also hoped that her brother could participate in this imperial examination, so his dream was fulfilled.

Zhong Erlang paused, full of worries, seeing his niece followed his younger sister anxiously, he could only sigh and said: "It's Mingxian's letter saying that my brother-in-law didn't know what happened, but he was framed by others and stole the money from the Ming Palace. The precious unicorn seal, and this unicorn seal is a gift from the late emperor, whoever steals it will be beheaded!"

Zhong's face turned pale immediately, and she looked at Zhong Erlang in a daze, "Brother, what did you say?"

"Sister, don't worry, the date on the letter is still before the imperial examination, and the most important thing right now is the imperial examination, so naturally there is no time for arraignment." Seeing this, Zhong Erlang stood up quickly and walked to her side to comfort her stand up.

Listening to her second brother's words, Zhong's mind became more and more blurred, and finally went blank. She could only think of the word "decapitate", so she couldn't help mumbling: "Decapitate? Decapitate, decapitate"

Seeing her mother like this, Liu Ruchun reacted in shock, stood up abruptly, and only asked Zhong Erlang, "Second Uncle, what else did Cousin Mingxian say?"

"They are now trying to find a way to help reverse the case." Zhong Erlang only sighed, but he knew in his heart that no one would dare to help in such a case. When it was searched in his room, it was still wrapped in my brother-in-law's cloth.

Now that Liu Ruchun really had no choice, he just walked back and forth in the house in a hurry, and didn't have time to comfort her mother. Suddenly thinking of Situ Yuzhi, he couldn't help asking Zhong Erlang, "Did Brother Mingxian go to find Mr. Situ?" ?”

Zhong Erlang didn't know that Situ Yuzhi had returned to the capital, so when he heard Liu Ruchun ask, he thought that the child was in a hurry, and felt very sorry for her, "Isn't this Mr. Situ in Zhuangzi?"

Only now did Liu Ruchun realize that she was in a hurry and told about Situ Yuzhi's absence, so she had no choice but to follow her second uncle's words, "Yeah, I actually forgot." Just worried, cousin Did you go to Situ Yuzhi for help? If he was willing to deal with it, even if the charges could not be cleared immediately, it could delay the time and save them from suffering in prison!

On the one hand, he asked again: "Do they have any silver taels?" Now is the time to ask people, and the silver taels they brought must be far from enough.

Zhong Erlang only said: "I'm planning to come to tell you, and I will set off for the capital immediately after returning. As for the silver, I asked your second aunt to prepare it, and your uncle also sent a lot of bank notes."

"Since the second uncle is going, then I will go with you." Liu Ruchun said straight away, walking towards her mother, shaking her shoulders, and only called: "Mother, mother?"

"Chun'er, your father is going to be beheaded, hooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!" suddenly raised her listless head and cried towards Liu Ruchun.

"No, mother, don't worry, how can it be so fast, let alone where is my cousin following Mr. Cheng?" Liu Ruchun said, thinking that when he went to the capital, he would definitely find out the truth of this matter. Why did his father follow his brother? People, how could it be possible to steal, let alone something from the Ming Palace.
