Chapter 115 Court
Zhou Qing was surprised to see Cheng Wu here.
But he immediately calmed down, nodded, and walked out.
"Why are you here?"
Cheng Wu forced a smile and looked up at the tall door behind Zhou Qing.
"Is this the house of the young boss?"
"Yes."
Cheng Wu said, "Is this why you don't want to marry me?"
Zhou Qing
"I made it very clear about our relationship at the time. I always treat you as a friend."
After saying this politely, Zhou Qing chose to end the topic.
"I have something else to do, so I won't talk to you any more. When you get married, I'll go to your wedding."
After saying this, Zhou Qing was about to leave.
Cheng Wu grabbed her.
"Are you going to the county government? I know about Uncle Huaishan's affairs."
Zhou Qing turned to look at Cheng Wu.
Cheng Wu said, "Yesterday, people from the county government went to our village and questioned many people. Today, the court opened, and several people from the village came to testify for Uncle Huaishan."
After a pause, Cheng Wu avoided Zhou Qing's gaze and gritted his teeth, "If you agree to me, I will definitely speak for Uncle Huaishan today."
Zhou Qing frowned and looked at Cheng Wu with wide eyes.
After not seeing him for a few days, Cheng Wu has lost a lot of weight.
His cheekbones are prominent and his eye sockets are deep.
As a good friend of the original owner, Zhou Qing still has some instinctive concern for Cheng Wu.
But when he said this at this time, Zhou Qing raised his eyebrows and his expression became cold.
"What? If I don't agree, you will take advantage of the situation to slander my father?"
Cheng Wu's face was purple and red, and he bit his lips tightly.
"Sister Qing, I really want to marry you. That little boss looks glamorous, but rich people have three wives and four concubines, and I only have you. You won't suffer any loss if you marry me, so I don't understand why you don't want to?"
Zhou Qing pushed Cheng Wu away, "Do you really want to know?"
Cheng Wu nodded, "Yes."
Originally, Zhou Qing planned to reject Cheng Wu sharply and venomously, but then he thought about it and decided to take another approach.
"Because I like women!"
Cheng Wu
looked at Zhou Qing with wide eyes, and was so dumbfounded that his thighs almost softened and he knelt down to Zhou Qing.
Zhou Qing sighed with melancholy.
"This question was originally my own secret. I didn't plan to tell anyone, but you insisted on forcing me to tell it. Now that I have told you, you have to keep it a secret for me."
Cheng Wu
It felt like hundreds of flying insects were filling his ears.
The buzzing sound made him dizzy and headache.
Like women?
Zhou Qing likes women?
This.
Cheng Wu looked at Zhou Qing with twitching eyes, and for a moment he couldn't recover.
Zhou Qing patted Cheng Wu on the shoulder, "Since you know my secret, don't provoke me with such questions in the future."
After saying that, Zhou Qing turned around and left.
Cheng Wu was petrified in the place, disheveled in the north wind.
Like, women? !
In front of the county government, when Zhou Qing arrived, there were already a sea of people.
The county magistrate adjudicated the case, and the academic official sat on one side to support the team.
As the killing stick hit the ground, Zhou Huaishan and the three students were taken away together.
The gavel slammed, and the county magistrate looked at Zhou Huaishan solemnly, "Zhou Huaishan, do you admit the crime of indecency that these three people accused you of?"
He looked like he was handling the case impartially.
Zhou Huaishan shook his head, "I am innocent, I do not admit it."
The county magistrate turned to look at the three students, "I have been investigating for three days. For this case, the only witnesses I can find are the villagers of Qingyang Village.
Because you cannot provide concrete evidence of Zhou Huaishan's molestation, if there is no witness, I cannot judge him guilty.
And if Zhou Huaishan files a lawsuit to sue you for slander, there is sufficient evidence.
Have you thought it through?"
Chen Guang quickly glanced at the academic official and saluted the county magistrate.
"Just ask the lord to do justice for the students."
After Chen Guang finished speaking, Wang Le and Gao He beside him followed and said, "I ask the lord to do justice."
The county magistrate said, "Bring the villagers of Qingyang Village."
In addition to the clan leader, the county magistrate invited several villagers closest to Huaishan Academy, including the Chengwu family.
As soon as he entered the court, before the county magistrate could speak, Chengwu's mother spat at Zhou Huaishan.
"Your Excellency, you can see clearly that this person is mean and vicious, vain, lazy and greedy."
The gnashing teeth made her want to rush forward and bite Zhou Huaishan alive.
On Cheng Wu Niang's side was Mrs. Zhao.
Mrs. Zhao had always been jealous of Zhou Qing's family and hated Zhou Huailin for not lending her money last time.
Then she said, "That's right, your Excellency, Zhou Huaishan is a well-known blockhead in our village, but this is his trick to deceive people. If he is really a blockhead, he can't be expelled from the family tree by the old Zhou family."
As the two of them talked, the outside was noisy.
The clan leader glared at them unhappily, and clasped his fists to the county magistrate and said, "Your Excellency, you can see clearly that these two have a grudge against Zhou Huaishan's family. Zhou Huaishan is honest and has always had a good reputation in the village."
In addition to the witnesses invited by the county magistrate, there are many volunteers who came to the county this time.
Huaishan Academy does not accept tuition fees, and many people in the village are grateful to Zhou Huaishan.
Outside the court, someone shouted, "Yes, sir, we are all villagers from Qingyang Village. Zhou Huaishan is a very good person and will never do anything bad."
"Yes, sir, don't listen to their nonsense. Cheng Wuniang's son wanted to marry Zhou Huaishan's daughter but couldn't, so she was angry and embarrassed. Her words don't count."
Others would say that the county magistrate slapped the gavel to stop the commotion outside.
"This is a court, and no one is allowed to speak falsely. Since I have invited you to be witnesses, every word you say must be true. Anyone who commits fraud to avenge himself will be legally responsible!"
Matching the majesty of the county magistrate, Mrs. Zhao and Cheng Wu Niang shrank their shoulders.
Xuezheng snorted coldly, "What, the county magistrate is threatening witnesses in public in court?"
Cheng Wu Niang and Mrs. Zhao rolled their eyes and looked at Master Xuezheng.
Although they did not know this person, they recognized him wearing official uniform.
Moreover, he can sit here and listen when the county magistrate decides a case. He must be a high official.
The two exchanged glances with each other, and Mrs. Zhao said: "Your Excellency is aware of this, and ordinary people dare not speak nonsense."
Cheng Wu Niang followed suit and said, "Even ordinary people don't dare!"
The patriarch stamped his feet angrily, "Sir, regarding Zhou Huaishan's character issue, there are many people in Qingyang Village who can prove it. They just live closest to the academy."
These words are a reminder to the county magistrate.
All they can prove is whether they have seen Zhou Huaishan commit indecency.
Everything else doesn't count.
The county magistrate glanced at the clan leader, and then his eyes fell on Cheng Wu Niang and Mrs. Zhao.
"I would like to ask you, have you ever seen Zhou Huaishan engage in any indecent behavior with these three people?"
Mrs. Zhao opened her mouth and said: "I have seen Zhou Huaishan take them to the corn field."
Cheng Wu Niang followed and said, "I have seen Zhou Huaishan take them home."
"Mom, what are you talking nonsense about? When did Uncle Huaishan do such a thing!" Cheng Wu appeared in the crowd at some point and shouted to his mother.
He wanted to go to court, but was stopped by the government officials outside.
"Let him in!"
The county magistrate looked outside and gave an order.
