Farm girl is busy making money

Chapter 187 Sentencing
Chapter 180 VII Sentencing
When they arrived at the court, besides the old lady Lu, who was suffering, Sanmei Zhao, who looked haggard and still had tears in her eyes, also came. She looked at Zhao Yao and Zhao Xiaowu who walked in with resentment.

Zhao Shuangxi and He Lanshan were left outside the courtroom, watching Zhao Sanmei hugging Lu Xingwang, although Lu Xingwang was kneeling, but lying forward, he was wiping the dust on the courtroom with his fingers spread out, and his mouth was crooked mouth drooling
There were circles of white gauze wrapped around his head, and traces of blood scabs could be seen.

"Defendant Zhao Yao, the sufferer Lu Xingwang was smashed at your home last night..." The county magistrate rang the alarm and fell to his knees.

Zhao Yao had originally come here with a sense of responsibility, so he naturally told all the county magistrate's questions honestly, confessed his guilt honestly, and the county magistrate frowned.

Shao Juntang naturally informed him that there were other secrets in the case, but the defendant did not appeal for injustice. If he sentenced him to a lighter sentence, wouldn't it appear that he, the parent official, was deliberately covering up.

For a while, the county magistrate was also stumped.

"Mother, aunt, this uncle didn't say it was Lu Xingwang who smashed his aunt's head first, and then he smashed Lu Xingwang on impulse. What he did on impulse is different from the years spent in jail on purpose. "He Lanshan was also helpless.

Uncle, Uncle, isn’t it so useful to have the spirit of sacrifice?

At this time, Mrs. Xu took off her conical hat resolutely and rushed to the hall. Before the officials could react, she knelt down in a "thump", "My lord, there is still a grievance in this case. I am Mrs. Xu, Zhao Yao's wife. Here The thing is that because Xingwang smashed my head, the old lady Lu and his daughter-in-law wouldn't let me see a doctor, so my husband smashed Lu Xingwang who was insulting me on the spur of the moment."

"I said, since ancient times, it's too late for an uncle to take good care of his nephew. How can he turn someone into a fool." The county magistrate breathed a sigh of relief.

This Shao Juntang is a character in their Pinghe County. The Shao family has people in the capital, and the relationship with the governor and the like is very good. I am a small county magistrate, and I can't even handle such small things It would be bad if it affected his future promotion.

"Ms. Xu raised her head and said, is what you said true? Is there anyone to prove it?"

The county magistrate spoke with a pleasant face, but Mrs. Xu didn't raise her head for a long time, and finally mustered up enough to expose her shy face to everyone's sight.

"My God." Several yamen servants even cried out.

The county magistrate was also taken aback, seeing that Mrs. Xu had tears in her eyes, endured the humiliation from everyone's eyes, and still fought for her husband's innocence, which was somewhat admirable.

Xu cited the doctor from the medical center and Zhao Shuangxi's family as witnesses.

He Lanshan and the others also arrived in the hall smoothly. Because she was the youngest, the county magistrate asked her directly, "Little girl, you should tell the truth at such a young age, and tell the county magistrate what happened last night."

"You can't ask her, this little hoof is full of nonsense, the county magistrate, this matter is that our prosperity is the cause of suffering, let them lose money and go to jail, there is no other grievance!" Granny Lu opened her mouth and said.

Hearing the noisy voice, the county magistrate gave a direct look, and the master whispered something in the ear of a yamen servant, who took out a handkerchief and stuffed it in Old Madam Lu's mouth, telling her not to speak.

He Lanshan lowered her head and curled her lips into a chuckle, and when she raised her head again, she told what happened last night.It is particularly outstanding that Mrs. Lu's family lives in Zhao's house for nothing, and she treats people like servants. She is afraid that Lu Xingwang's reputation will be ruined if she smashes people, and will not let people seek medical treatment.

After returning from medical treatment, he even insulted Mrs. Xu, so Zhao Yaocai smashed Lu Xingwang's head in desperation.

In addition to listening to He Lanshan's reply, the county magistrate also looked at the cloth-wrapped wound on Mrs. Xu's head, and sent someone to call the old doctor from the hospital to confirm that what Mrs. Xu said was true.

The magistrate touched the gavel, and the corners of his lips raised high, that's right, this is how he was able to openly show favor to Zhao Yao outside the law.

"Everyone in the hall heard the trial, and the judge pronounced the verdict. This case was mainly caused by Lu Xingwang's stubbornness. Although he has become a fool, he thought his uncle was honest and honest, and even lent him a house to study. Therefore, Zhao Yao was sentenced to prison for one year. In 20, we will compensate Lu Family with [-] taels of silver, all right, no more incidents will happen in the future, and we will leave the court!"

The magistrate walked into the back office in a hurry, and let him finish the matter.

In the hall, Zhao Sanmei's face was full of tears, and there was resentment in her eyes. She pointed her slender fingers at Zhao Yao's face, "It's only been a year. You ruined my son and you only need to spend one year in prison. Do you know that prosperity is my fate?" .”

Zhao Yao lowered his head and remained silent.

He Lanshan looked at the original owner's mother, glanced at her with disdain and said, "Even though Uncle did something wrong, it was because of your incompetence in raising the son. Moreover, he spent this year in prison for you, so he chose to reconcile." If so, he won’t have to sit in jail for a day.”

"What do you mean?" Zhao Sanmei looked at He Lanshan sadly with tears still in her eyes.

Zhao Shuangxi pulled He Lanshan behind her, and stared at Zhao Sanmei with the same aggressive eyes, "It means that your mother-in-law wants us to pay 200 taels for reconciliation. We can't afford the 200 taels. If you do, For the 200 taels, think carefully about how the Lu family will treat you? Whether you will be dismissed or not is a matter of opinion."

"No, you lied to me." Zhao Sanmei's tears finally fell down.

She gave birth to five children in total, Lanshan was adopted by her, and two daughters were sold in disguise. Now Lu Xingwang is also stupid, and only Lu Pan'er is left.

How could the Lu family treat her? Didn't she know that she had been in the Lu family for more than ten years?I just don't want to admit the fact.

At this time, Mrs. Lu, who had been gagged by the yamen servants, was also free. Zhao Xiaowu had already gone to get 20 taels. In this courtroom, Mrs. Lu couldn't say that they didn't give the money under the eyes of everyone.

Who knew that the old lady Lu had won 20 taels of silver and she patted her legs and said: "The county magistrate is not fair, my grandson grew up drinking goat milk since he was a child, and his food and drink are close to his, and he is raised for more than 20 taels Yes, I want 200 taels..."

The more Mrs. Lu made a fuss, the more everyone felt that the magistrate's sentence was fair.

It's a rambunctious person like Mrs. Lu who raises a disobedient child that causes others to accidentally beat him up and disable him.

Mrs. Lu made a fuss for a while, and a yamen servant came out and took her directly and said, "Don't make a fuss. If you make a fuss again, you will be punished. If you have doubts about the magistrate's trial, you can ask for a retrial, and the retrial is fine." You have to play twenty boards first."

Mrs. Lu covered her mouth and remained silent.

"You useless thing, make a fool of yourself, and don't take Xingwang back with me." Granny Lu slapped Zhao Sanmei's face with a "slap", and now she will fuck everyone in this class However, I can only handle this obedient daughter-in-law.
