Chapter 41
"Can you see me?" Second Aunt asked.

"What do you see?" Second Uncle couldn't help complaining, "As soon as I went up to have a look, the door was closed."

The second aunt frowned, "Anyway, the village head is not Yun, he also said he is a good man, what are we afraid of?" Then she turned to Bu Youran, "Youran, does Father Li still have new clothes?"

Bu Youran was sitting at the table, eating pancakes wrapped with scallions, she raised her head when she heard the second aunt's question, "Yes."

"Bring me back one tomorrow, and I will go to the county town market with your big girls later."

Bu leisurely let out a cry.

……

Two days later, I heard that the neighbor's family wanted to recruit workers, no matter men or women, as long as they were diligent, steadfast and willing to work, there were ten positions in total.

This is rare in a small place like Dian County, after all, no family has servants.

Although the family gave a lot of money, they also underestimated the honesty and folk customs of the people here. They think that they should do their own things, and it is okay to help out occasionally, but if they sign for ten or eight years all at once, they will be discouraged.

Bu leisurely sat in the shop, flipping through the ledger in a very boring manner, at this moment, the younger brother Zhang who was opposite ran in, panting, "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law..."

Bu Youran has corrected this title several times, but there is no other way, the people around her just think she is Li Yan's daughter-in-law, so just call her, as long as she understands it herself.

Bu Youran poured him a bowl of water to let him catch his breath.

Brother Zhang waved his hand, and continued, "Sister-in-law, something happened to brother. He fought with Qiu Huhu from the neighboring county, and was arrested by the magistrate of the neighboring county..."

"Is he hurt?" Bu Youran asked anxiously.

"Qiu Huhu is a well-known bully in the neighboring county. He has long disliked Big Brother, and this time he deliberately found fault, so Big Brother did it. But he is no match for Qiu Huhu. He was already beaten unconscious when he was taken away."

Bu Youran frowned, "Li Yan usually doesn't talk much, logically speaking, if he knew Qiu Huhu did it on purpose, he wouldn't bother."

"It's not that Qiu Huhu said that sister-in-law, you look like a village girl, but not as good as his sister..."

When Bu Youran heard it, he suddenly realized.

Thinking that Qiu Huhu must have wanted to marry his younger sister to Li Yan, but Li Yan always disagreed, so the Liangzi was tied.

Hey... it's feelings again...

Bu Youran considered that Li's father was getting old, and he was afraid that he would not be able to afford such a big deal, so he decided to solve it by himself first, if it really couldn't, let's talk about it later.

Bu Youran thought of when she was in jail, the prison boss said that she could be released on bail, as long as she paid money.

So, she put all the money in the shop into her bosom, and followed Zhang Xiaodi to the neighboring county. She thought that things would go as she thought, but when she arrived, she found that it was not the case at all. She couldn't hand it over, and even the gatekeeper refused to accept her money.

Could it be that this is an upright official?But if it is an upright official, how can he wrong a good person?Do such contradictory things?
Bu Youran felt a little strange, so she stayed in the neighboring county that day, and Zhang Xiaodi also accompanied her.

Until it was completely dark, the county government closed the door, and a guard at the door just came out after changing clothes.

Bu Youran and the others followed all the way, and found that the guard's house was bare, and there was an old mother who was sick in bed. It is reasonable to say that they would not reject the money delivered to the door.

Bu Youran decided to rush in.

The gatekeeper couldn't help being startled when he saw Bu Youran, but he quickly returned to normal, "You came here for nothing."

Bu Youran stepped forward to help him fetch water, "Brother, my husband and I just got married, you have the heart to let me become a widow just like that?"

The gatekeeper didn't speak, just grabbed the basin and walked into the house.

"Who is that?" His mother lay on the bed, squinting at Bu Youran standing at the door.

Bu Youran changed his mind and decided to start with the person he cared about the most, "Mother, my husband and I just got married, but today he was injured by Qiu Huhu and sent to jail in a daze. ..."

Upon hearing this, the aunt hurriedly scolded her son, picked up a small pillow on the bed, and beat him out.

The gatekeeper couldn't dodge in time, and was hit straight, "Mother..." He took the pillow, "It's not that I don't help, it's that the county magistrate said that no one should intervene in this matter."

"It's not enough to give money?" Bu Youran asked anxiously.

The gatekeeper shook his head, "This matter cannot be solved by money."

Bu Youran frowned, "Then what should we do? Do we still have to go to that Qiu Huhu to intercede?"

"There are many people involved in this matter. Li Yan offended not only Qiu Huhu, but also the richest man in the county. Besides that, there is another person who came from the capital."

"The capital?" Bu Youran repeated, "Can you say what's the last name?"

The gatekeeper waved his hand, "I really don't know the rest. All I've seen is a car, what a person looks like, and his identity. Only the county magistrate himself knows."

Brother Zhang stepped forward, "Sister-in-law, I don't think what he said is true. In my opinion, we might as well ask the county master to ask in person."

Bu Youran was helpless, "This is the only way to go now." They have no power and power, so why should they fight with others?
As the saying goes, "Know yourself and the enemy, and you will be victorious in all battles!"

They can only investigate each other's situation before discussing countermeasures.

Bu Youran stayed in this county that night. She was afraid that Father Li would be worried, so she sent Zhang Xiaodi back first to find some excuses to lie to him.

Before dawn on the second day, Bu Youran sat and waited at the gate of the county magistrate's mansion.

……

In a house in Dian County, there is a big tree planted in the yard, under the big tree is a rocking chair made of wood and rattan, and beside the rocking chair is a stone table.

There is a chess game on the stone table. At this time, white pieces are surrounded by black pieces.

At this time, a person came from outside the door, and the hand holding the white stone froze in mid-air.

The visitor bowed slightly and looked at the person who was setting up the chess game, "Song Yiping has been formally conferred the title of Grand Bachelor of the Imperial Academy, Mrs. Song has been conferred the title of Second Rank, and Song Yiling has been betrothed to Li Wanjin, the son of Li Xiang, who will get married next year."

The person holding the chess piece nodded and immediately dropped the white piece, then picked up a black piece, indicating that he can retreat.

After a while, another person walked in.

"Master, Li Yan is in jail, and Bu Youran went to the neighboring county last night."
