Chapter 4681 Trial Result
Zhao Liuer glanced at the giggling daughter in his arms and smiled too.
"Qing'er, now that we have met your third brother, there is no need for you to take us to the county seat. You can go home with your third uncle and Tang Yazi!" Zhao Liuer said again.
Yang Ruoqing nodded. She had guessed this result when she saw Yang Yongzhi.
Yang Yongzhi said angrily: "When I pass through the county town later, I will go to the restaurant to borrow a few sets of clothes from my second brother. This time I will accompany Liu'er and his mother to my uncle's place. Stay here for a while so that you don’t have to go home and be called by grandma to talk about all the nonsense.”
Do you want him to go back and divorce his wife?
Give him a break!
I have a wife and a baby, a warm bed and hot meals, I don’t know how nourishing it is.
Let me divorce my wife? stay single? How selfish!
I will never give up. Whoever wants to give up will give up!
Yang Yongzhi got into Zhao Liuer's carriage and parted ways with Yang Ruoqing's carriage.
On the way back to the village, Yang Huazhong sat in the carriage and took a nap. Luo Fengtang drove the carriage. Yang Ruoqing sat next to him. The bay red horse she was riding when she came over followed meekly beside the carriage.
Luo Fengtang tried his best to drive the carriage as gently as possible so that Yang Huazhong in the carriage could sleep more comfortably.
"My dad is snoring like thunder. I think he has been really exhausted in the past two days!" Yang Ruoqing listened to the movement in the car behind her and couldn't help but whisper to Luo Fengtang.
Luo Fengtang nodded, and also said in a low voice: "I have been rushing and going to the Yamen Court for the past two days to answer questions. Third uncle is really tired."
"Hey, tell me about my cousin and Li Xiuxin's situation." Yang Ruoqing moved closer to him and patted his arm gently.
"You are the only ones back this time, and the three of them are nowhere to be seen. What's going on? Is it possible that they stayed behind and went to jail?" Yang Ruoqing asked again.
While driving, Luo Fengtang looked ahead, always paying attention to the road conditions so that he could make timely adjustments.
Hearing Yang Ruoqing's question, the corners of his lips slightly raised, and he said: "I won't go into the tedious inquiries and the accusations and arguments made by both parties in the court. You must be too lazy. Just listen to their rhetoric and tell you the result."
"Mother Li, because she poked your cousin with the bamboo hairpin, she was charged with intentional injury. She was beaten ten times and detained for three months. "
Yang Ruoqing raised her eyebrows: "In other words, Mother Li will still be in prison for three months?"
Luo Fengtang nodded.
"Her behavior of poking your cousin with a bamboo hairpin may have hurt her life. According to the law, she would have been severely punished, but because the reason was that your cousin wanted to strangle Li Xiuxin first, Li's mother The nurse used the bamboo hairpin to poke your cousin because she was eager. It was a counterattack."
"So the punishments for Li's mother and your cousin are similar. They both received ten blows and were imprisoned for three months." He said. road.
Yang Ruoqing was surprised: "Huh? Not only Li's mother will go to jail for three months, but my cousin will also go to jail for three months?"
Luo Fengtang nodded, "Killing is a serious crime, and attempted murder will naturally be severely punished."
"What about Li Xiuxin?" Yang Ruoqing then asked.
Luo Fengtang said: "In the last wave of turmoil, Li Xiuxin was almost strangled to death by your cousin. She was a victim, so she was not sentenced. However, the origin of this incident lies with her. She deliberately poured sweet soup into it. The laxative was not fatal, but because Xiu'er was born weak, it indirectly killed Xiu'er. "
"But Li Xiuxin had a very good attitude in admitting her mistake in court, and she cried bitterly. She regretted it and wanted to commit suicide several times to follow Xiu'er." "Perhaps it was her actions and words that moved the county magistrate. Let the county magistrate feel a little compassion, she was originally supposed to be sentenced to exile, but now it is changed to five years."
"Five years? This is enough for Li Xiuxin to drink a pot!"
Li Xiuxin is now twenty-seven or eighty years old. When she is released from prison in five years, she will already be a woman in her early thirties.
It can be said that the most glorious period of her life has passed, and she was buried by her own hands.
"Three months? My grandma is going to collapse now. Fortunately, there is no provincial examination this year. Otherwise, my eldest cousin will not be able to take the exam, and my grandma will go crazy!" Yang Ruoqing said.
Luo Fengtang sneered: "Your cousin, who is studying in the same school, actually tried to strangle someone to death in front of everyone. The county magistrate, considering his father-in-law's plea and our relationship with the old Yang family, I didn’t report it to you to expel your eldest brother’s reputation as a scholar. Now this punishment is already a mercy!”
Yang Ruoqing twitched her lips: "It's a pity that I wasn't there at the time. Otherwise, I would have suggested that the county magistrate revoke his title of scholar and let them cry. Hum!"
Luo Fengtang freed up a hand and gently He gently held her hand, glanced into the car behind him, and gave Yang Ruoqing a hint in his eyes.
Yang Ruoqing understood immediately. He was reminding her not to say that. She hates evil as much as she hates her, and can kill relatives for justice.
But Yang Huazhong, the father in the carriage, must have felt uncomfortable. He was an innocent man, and the person who was sentenced was his own nephew.
Standing in an upright position, he must deal with it impartially, but selfishly, Yang Huazhong certainly does not want to see this.
Yang Ruoqing made a face at Luo Fengtang and stuck out her tongue playfully.
Luo Fengtang curled his lips, pinched her nose, and pulled her into his arms.
She leaned her head on his broad shoulder, her eyes and brows filled with joy.
When the carriage arrived at Changping Village, in the afternoon, the villagers had finished taking a nap, avoided the autumn tiger, and began to pick up farm tools and go back to the fields to work.
The late rice will be harvested in less than half a month, and the cotton has also matured. The ground is blooming in waves, and it is completely white.
So you don’t have to worry when traveling at night during this season, because there are usually many women gathering cotton in the fields at night, let alone this afternoon?
Yang Huazhong’s carriage passed by on the road in front of the village. The villagers working in the fields on both sides of the road recognized the carriage of Yang Huazhong’s family. They all climbed up to the field ridge, waving and shouting. Say hello.
Yang Huazhong woke up after arriving in Qingshui Town and insisted on going out to catch the car and get some fresh air.
So inside the carriage, Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang were snuggled and dozing off, and the driver was Yang Huazhong.
The two dozing people clearly felt that the carriage under them was much slower. From time to time, there were sounds coming from both sides. Everyone was asking Yang Huazhong about the results of the Yamen interrogation!
Yang Huazhong's answer was the same as everyone else's: "I can't tell you for the time being. I will discuss it with several village elders later and put up a notice at the entrance of the village." For such matters, the yamen will ask the subordinates to announce them in the village as a warning and to better regulate the behavior of the people.
