Chapter 69: Auntie, how about you help her?
Chapter 69 Aunt, how about you help her?
Before Chu Nanzhi had time to react, Liu Yun hurried over to help her:
"Er Niang, what are you doing, if you have something to say, just say it."
The woman's leg seemed to be rooted to the ground, and Liu Yun couldn't pull it no matter how hard she pulled it.
Sisters Chu Nanxiang and Chu Nanzhu hurried over to help when they saw this.
The young woman was forced to bend over by the mother and daughter, but suddenly burst into tears, pulling at Chu Nanzhi's clothes and refusing to let go:
"Sister Zhi, please, please save my brother, I beg you to save my brother."
Listening to these words, some vague memories suddenly flashed in Chu Nanzhi's mind.
She probably remembered that this little girl belonged to a family named Wei in the east of the village, and she hadn't met the original owner several times, so she couldn't even remember her name clearly.
Just listen to Liu Yun's explanation:
"This is Nian Yi, the second girl of your Uncle Wei's house at the east end of the village, Dazhi, do you remember?"
"Oh, read one."
Chu Nanzhi pretended to be very familiar and exclaimed.
Chu Wenbi looked at her suspiciously: "When you got married, her brother brought her to the house several times and helped write the wedding invitation and dowry list."
"I see."
Chu Nanzhi finally had a memory.
She remembered that there used to be an old teacher in this village named Wei Lichuan, who taught the three sisters of the original owner to read and write. When he was nearly half a century old, he married a young widow in the village and had a pair of children. Wei Nianyi.
As for Wei Ziqing, Chu Nanzhi Yixi remembered that it was the man the original owner fell in love with at the beginning, but Liu Yun thought he was the child of a widow, and felt it was unlucky, so she didn't agree to talk about the marriage.
Chu Wenbi looked at Wei Nianyi who was crying sadly, put down the bowl and chopsticks slowly, coughed lightly and said:
"Your Uncle Wei and Aunt Qin have passed away for many years. Nianyi relies on her brother to support her. I never thought that Ziqing would do such a mess this time."
"That's not the case, Second Uncle Chu, my brother was wronged, he was really wronged."
Wei Nian choked up, crying more and more sadly.
Chu Nanzhi quickly comforted: "It's okay, sister Nianyi, if you have something to say, you can't solve it just by crying."
Liu Yun listened, frowning and shaking her head.
Liu Shuyang had a bitter face, and suddenly sighed in surprise after hearing the conversation of several people: "Sister, you don't know about such a big thing. It's been several days, and all the criminals have been sent to prison and convicted."
"What is it?"
Chu Nanzhi looked at the little son-in-law in disgust, a little impatiently.
Liu Shuyang felt a sense of superiority instantly, and said arrogantly:
"Xiao Nianyi, her elder brother Wei Ziqing, committed adultery with Shen Yang, the concubine of Shen Dahu's family in our village, and conspired to poison Mr. Shen to death. Li Sanlang from your village was not the one who came to arrest people with the county government a few days ago. You don't even know."
How is adultery again?
Hearing this word, Chu Nanzhi's head grew big.
What happened recently? This kind of thing can always happen from time to time.
Is it because of this matter?
She looked at Lin Jinxiao in a daze.
Lin Jinxiao looked at her strange eyes, and quickly replied in fright: "A few days ago, I did hear from Sanlang that there was a murder case in Tong'an Village. I didn't expect such a coincidence."
When he said this, Chu Nanzhi suddenly remembered that Mr. Nie in the county had mentioned Tong'an Village to himself a few days ago.
I just asked Mr. Nie at that time, the evidence of the case is conclusive, and there is no doubt about it.
She didn't bother to ask in detail, so she had to confirm with Liu Yun and Chu Wenbi at this time: "Father, mother, have other murders happened in the village these days?"
Before the couple had time to answer, Liu Shuyang reprimanded full of complaints: "Sister, what kind of heart do you have, why do you still expect people to die every day in the village?"
"Shut up for me."
Chu Nanzhi glared at him fiercely, and the little son-in-law was willing to calm down.
Liu Yun and Chu Wenbi looked at each other for a while, and then replied together: "Recently, this case is the only one that has been making a fuss in the village, and everyone knows about it."
After hearing what the couple said, Chu Nanzhi nodded confidently.
But looking at the little girl in front of her crying so painfully, she began to feel a little bit difficult.
Magistrate Hu has chosen to close the case, and Mr. Nie went to check it, so there must be no omissions.
Looking at Chu Wenbi and Liu Yun calmly, she reconfirmed: "Father, mother, is it true that the old man of the Shen family was poisoned to death? Is brother Nian Yi really having an affair with Shen Yang?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Liu Shuyang couldn't bear it anymore and began to rush to answer: "It's hard to say whether you have been infected with this, but it is true that Mr. Shen died of poisoning. The county government official has done an autopsy , there is no element of deceit at all, my cousin, wife and mother have all gone to see it."
Chu Nanzhu glanced at him angrily, and quickly calmed down when looking at Chu Nanzhi:
"Sister, this is indeed the case. My mother and I went to join in the fun and saw the corpse of the county government office for an autopsy. We don't know if the brother of the Wei family has anything with that Shen Yang family, anyway. Everyone in their house said so."
"Look, big sister, I didn't lie to you, did I?"
Liu Shuyang pursed his mouth, and spread his hands leisurely.
Chu Nanzhu grabbed the sobbing Wei Nianyi distressedly, and comforted him in a warm voice:
"Sister Nianyi, don't be too sad. It's hard for anyone to accept such a thing happening at home, but you are still young, you have to live strong, and we will all help you in the future. If you encounter any difficulties, come here Find me and my mother."
Wei Nian became more sad when he heard it, put the egg on the ground, and begged Chu Nanzhi again:
"Sister Zhi, you believe me, my brother was really wronged, he has always been a kind person, and when he encounters a homeless stray dog on weekdays, even if he is hungry, he will save some food to feed it. They, when they encounter injured birds, will try to heal them, how can such a person think of harming others."
Hearing what she said, Chu Nanzhi probably felt that Wei Ziqing was indeed a kind person.
But a case is a case, and it cannot be judged by the simple good and evil of people's hearts.
Although County Magistrate Hu has a short acquaintance with herself, she has a general understanding of this person, and she is not a stupid official who regards human life as nothing.
Furthermore, with a famous name like Mr. Nie there, County Magistrate Hu dared not be perfunctory.
At this moment, if she rashly goes to reverse the case, and doesn't say anything about their face, if she still can't find out what the reason is, wouldn't she put herself in an even more embarrassing situation.
Just as she was thinking about how to persuade the second mother of the Wei family, the little girl suddenly burst into tears again:
"Sure enough, you are all protected by officials and officials. I am stupid. Sister Zhi is now a celebrity in front of the county magistrate. How could you offend them for a poor scholar like my brother? My brother is right. If you have to accept your fate in the lawsuit, there will be no one to defend the poor people like us."
Chu Nanzhi was annoyed for a while by her sour words.
She is not a timid person, but there must be a rule for everything, and she can't question the facts recognized by everyone around her based on a few unfounded words in a little girl's film.
It's just that Wei Nianyi cried so hard that her heart broke, and the family couldn't persuade her no matter how hard she tried, they all became helpless, and Chu Nanzhi fell into a dilemma.
Suddenly, Wei Nianyi seemed to be possessed by an evil spirit, and said to himself: "Brother, my little sister can't avenge you, I'm ashamed, I can't bear to watch you being wronged to death, little sister first I'm going down to accompany you."
After finishing speaking, he stood up and slammed into the pillar behind him.
The mother and daughter hurried over to stop her in a panic.
Fortunately, he reacted in time and stopped her when she hit the pillar, but a layer of skin was scratched between her foreheads.
Liu Shuyang breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the man was not dead. He was both grateful and annoyed. He rubbed his chest in shock and complained loudly with a bitter face:
"I said Xiao Nianyi, you stinky girl, even if you want to die, you should find a place with good geomantic omens. What's the matter if you die in my house? Now this is the only house left in our family that is worth a little money."
"Say a few words less."
Chu Nanzhi saw how cold-blooded he was gloating, and wished he could go up and beat him up.
At this time, Sibao Lin Ruijia came over with a whimper, took a look in front of Wei Nian, then ran to Chu Nanzhi's side and begged pitifully: "Mother, this sister is so pitiful, why don't you Can you help her?"
