Nongmen Merchant Girl

Chapter 58
On the day of the court hearing, most of the villagers and neighbors in Xujiaao who did not go to work came. For many years, I have never seen anyone in the village litigate. Surrounded by a watertight.

The Wang family invited someone to go to court to sue, but Mr. Wang was sitting on the sidelines, but Xu Ru and Xu Yinhua were about to kneel down to the county magistrate as soon as they came in.

She wasn't angry either. In ancient times, prosecutors were generally well-known, so it was normal not to kneel down, but she was more angry when Mr. Wang sat there.

"Magistrate, both parties to the lawsuit, why does Mr. Wang sit in the hall? Could it be that Mr. Wang is a jury officer or a relative of the emperor?" Xu Ru said crisply standing in the middle of the lobby.

She wore a new sky-blue dress today, and the hair that she had carefully cared for in the past two months was finally no longer so dry. The long hair was tied up in a bun on the top of her head and fixed with a wooden hairpin, revealing her smooth forehead. , the eyebrows carefully corrected by her make her more shrewd and capable, and a few strands of broken hair are randomly scattered on the temples, giving people a kind and playful feeling.

There were only three people sitting in the hall, one was the county magistrate, the other was the director, and the third was Mr. Wang Haiwang.

After Xu Ru said this, everyone started buzzing about it.

Some said that she was so courageous that she dared to talk to the county magistrate like that, and some said that after she offended Mr. Wang, it would be difficult for Qinghe Town to survive.

The magistrate was also shocked. It has always been the case that whoever has the power and prestige in the court can sit and listen. Although there is no express regulation, it seems to be her own fault when she says this. In front of so many people, this girl is so Said, let yourself lose face, you have to treat her well.

"Ignorant and unruly people, do you know that regardless of age and prestige, Mr. Wang should sit in the hall to hear the trial, and you, a little country girl, come here to mess around, come here, give me twenty big boards first!" The guards on both sides below will come to pull her.

"My lord, is there a rule in the laws of my country that women are not allowed to plead in court? Besides, I just questioned the prestige of Master Wang in the local area. I am afraid that there is only prestige but no prestige. And you tortured me, a little girl, before the court started. , you are not afraid that so many people outside will say that you handled the case unfairly, and I am afraid that your reputation of being honest and honest will change in the future."

Xu Ru saw that this dog official was also a stalker, and if he continued to be tough, he might suffer a disadvantage, so he dealt with him first.

At this time, the onlookers outside were all buzzing and discussing, some were worried about her, and some were gloating about her misfortune.

When the magistrate heard her say that she was upright and upright, she was overjoyed, "You said everyone said I was upright and upright? Okay, okay, I won't beat you today, I think you can tell right from wrong, and come to court for my sister again. It's admirable. Let's start the class." After speaking, he coughed and sat upright.

Wu Zhixian first asked the lowly person's name and identity before he realized that the eloquent little girl was Xu Ru. Someone secretly said that Chunxiang Building had kidnapped her, and he successfully found a secret room according to the tip, but the girl was not found, but the dead person was found.

After the promotion, the plaintiff made his own statement of claim. The conclusion is that the young master of the Wang family felt unwell after eating the happy beans sold by Xu Yinhua, and he developed a series of symptoms. The Xu family should compensate him 3000 taels of medical expenses and the nutrition expenses of the young master Wang. .

As soon as the people outside the auditorium heard that 3000 taels of silver would be compensated, everyone started discussing again. This 3000 taels of silver is an astronomical figure for ordinary farmers. If there is no compensation, then Xu Yinhua will go to jail.

Xu Ru thought in her heart that they were really greedy, and 3000 taels of silver was simply impossible.

"My lord, as far as I know, my family's Happy Beans were also sold to other people in Qinghe Town that day, but the others were safe after eating them. Why did Young Master Wang have such symptoms?" Xu Ru said here After a pause, he continued, "My family has never had any contact with the Wang family, and we have no grievances or enmities. Besides, everyone has eaten these peanuts for several lifetimes. Has anyone heard of them being poisonous or eating them? So I beg you My lord rejects the request of the Wang family." After she finished speaking, the discussion outside became louder.

"That's right, I've never heard of this peanut being able to eat bad people, and this Wang family is too bullying." Xu Ru recognized that it was Brother Huzi's voice, and only he had such a loud voice.

"That's right, the young master of the Wang family has always been in poor health. It's disgusting to blame others for my own reasons." She recognized that it was the third sister Zhaodi who said this.

"Silence! Silence!" The county magistrate knocked the gavel loudly, and then said, "What you said is also reasonable, but the young master of the Wang family did have an accident after eating your happy beans."

"What your lord said is true, but dare to ask Master Wang, is it the first time for Young Master Wang to eat happy beans from my family? As far as I know, Young Master Wang would eat happy beans made by my family every two days before, but it has never appeared before." Also, why should I blame my family for something wrong this time?"

After Xu Ru said so much, the prosecutor of the Wang family also started to fight back, "As far as I know, Young Master Wang ate the peanuts bought from your house after lunch that day, and didn't eat anything else at night. You said no What could be the cause of your peanut problem? Since you can’t find out the cause of Young Master Wang’s illness, it’s your peanut problem.” The scholar smiled contemptuously, as if he looked down on Xu Ru.

Xu Ru became angry when she heard this, "You are not an official, and you are not the personal maid of Young Master Wang. How can you be so sure that Young Master Wang didn't eat anything else that day? What evidence do you have that my peanuts are poisonous?"

"Everyone will get sick after eating grains and miscellaneous waste. Isn't Young Master Wang's illness cured these days? It's because you deliberately made false claims about Young Master Wang's illness. It's our happy bean's problem. What's the purpose?" What Xu Ru said was convincing.

"My lord, now I want to sue the Wang family for framing my Xu family, and intending to conspire with my family's secret recipe of five-spice powder!" Her loud voice sounded in the middle of the lobby, and everyone felt very reasonable when she said this.

Wang Hai, who was sitting here, jumped up from his seat anxiously when he heard her say that, pointed at her and said, "What a wild girl with a sharp tongue, my Wang family has thousands of acres of fertile land and ten thousand yuan of wealth. Breaking the secret formula, Hugh will spit blood!"

People from both sides came back and forth to defend, and everyone who watched it was just enjoyable. It has been a long time since I have seen such an intense and enjoyable debate.

"My lord, I have a certificate, please allow me to go to court." At the end, Xu Ru had no choice but to say when he saw Wang Hai insisting.
