Chapter 70 A Difficult Case (2) Update 2

“Yes! The villagers found out and asked the bride’s husband’s family to collect the body. However, the family only said that they had divorced the bride. Life or death has nothing to do with them. Not only that, they also complained that the money they spent on the wedding was gone, and wanted to ask the bride's parents for it, but ignored the people who collected the body. The bride's mother's family was not easy to get along with, so the two families went to court. You also know that it is difficult for an upright official to settle family affairs..."

"What's so difficult about marrying a bride? What's the reason for this?" Datou was a little angry when he said he was divorced.

Seeing that Datou was speaking incoherently, Wu Chen was about to emphasize that collecting the body was the key, but Song Yu nodded and said, "That's the truth originally, but it's also true that the bride has never been pregnant..."

"Who helped the bride collect the body in the end?" Chen Nanzhu interrupted directly and asked.

Song Yu wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "No one has collected the body so far."

"Huh?" Chen Nanzhu and Datou said in unison.

Song Yu hurriedly explained:

“Both families knew that the corpse would be collected and buried. The mother-in-law’s family felt that the daughter had been married off, so naturally the body was collected by the husband’s family. The mother-in-law’s family felt that the bride had never given birth. Not to say The bride had been divorced before her death, and the body should be collected and buried by her family. They also produced a divorce letter. As you know, it is not certain when the divorce letter was written..."

"This paragraph Isn’t it time for my mother-in-law’s family to have peace?” Wu Chen asked.

Song Yu nodded and said:

"Exactly, the villagers still have to go up the mountain. They can see the bride hanging there every day. Those who are timid can only take a detour. Alas, those farmers outside the city, Most of the refugees were resettled there. Although there was a local chief to manage them, there was no Some people heard that the village chief was just a decoration. If the clan leader was here, how could such a matter be reported to the county government? "

"I didn't quite understand. What you mean is that in addition to the lawsuit between the husband's family and the mother's family, there are also lawsuits. Has anyone reported this to the county government?" Wu Chen asked.

Song Yu wiped the sweat from his forehead, nodded and said:

"The lawsuit against my husband's family will be filed with the county government in June... I was busy at the time, and I really didn't have the time. After thinking about it for a while, I just asked them to collect the body together and bury it as soon as possible. It would cost half of the family to pick up the body, but now almost two months have passed. However, no one collected the body. During this period, the villagers decided not to do it. They went to the husband's family to argue and even took action. After several times, the husband of the bride was beaten so hard that he could not get off the ground. However, no one collected the body. The villagers complained. When I arrived at the county government office, I ordered my husband’s family to collect the body as soon as possible. Let’s collect it first and decide who will bury it later!”

Wu Chen frowned and looked at Song Yu. This kind of case could be dragged out for two months. It can be seen that this Song Yu is not much different from Jiang Shan. Now that Jiang Shan is in prison, this Song County Lieutenant is afraid that he has no time to deal with it. For these small things, even if you have to sell your house or land and lose your legs, you have to keep your official position first.

Wu Chen couldn't help but snorted coldly and said, "If that's the case, Song County Lieutenant really doesn't need to make this trip."

Song Yu nodded repeatedly and said:

" I ordered my husband's family to collect the body, but they didn't dare to disobey, so the husband of the bride went to collect the body, thinking that he would take it down and bury it aside to deal with the problem, but in the end, he couldn't hang it from the tree for nearly two years. After Yue's body was taken down, the man made a Then I went home, but I didn't expect that I would go crazy at night. Today, my mother-in-law's family went to the county government office to make a fuss, saying that she wanted me to accompany her as a good boy. Such unruly people, alas, the villagers also came to make trouble, saying It was the husband’s family who deliberately refused to collect the body..."< br>
Wu Chen finally understood now that if these people did not cause trouble in the county government, the Song County Lieutenant would not be in a hurry, but at this juncture if someone makes trouble again, he would have to deal with it first. , so as not to get burned.

"Song County Lieutenant wants me to come and have a look at night?" Wu Chen looked at Song Yu nervously.

Song Yu nodded expectantly.

Wu Chen knew that as long as he agreed, the future disputes between his mother-in-law's family and his mother-in-law's family would probably come to him. Even if he left one day, if the lawsuit was not settled yet, Song Yu could still turn on him. push.

But Wu Chen didn't hesitate. He stood up and said, "I was planning to go out for a walk tonight. Since you came to my door, I will take care of you. Datou, come with me."< br>
“I’ll go too!” Chen Nanzhu stood up and said.

Song Yu couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief and said flatteringly: "I also heard that Brother Wu has this ability, so I had the nerve to invite him. I ordered someone to go to my husband's house to see it. That husband is really crazy." ..."

Wu Chen waved his hand and said: "Arrange the carriage. , let’s leave immediately.”

“The arrangements have been made, right at the entrance of the courtyard. I came here in a hurry and didn’t prepare anything...”

Song Yu said and pulled Wu. Chen's wrist, trying to secretly push the thing in his hand to Wu Chen.

But how could Song Yu be able to pull Wu Chen's hand?

Wu Chen lowered his face and looked at Song Yu and said, "Put it away, I'm not you!"

After that, Wu Chen strode out of the door, followed closely by Da Tou and Chen Nanzhu.

……

It’s night out of the city again.

Wu Chen sat in the carriage with his eyes closed and meditative. When he went out, Chen Zhong had not come back yet, which shows that the treasure underground is really a treasure!

How could the Ghost Mandrill Gang watch helplessly?

How could Chen Zhong not have any arrangements?

Just seeing how their carriage was inspected several times by officers and soldiers along the way, one can tell that in today's Anping County, it would be difficult for the Ghost Mandrill Gang to insert a needle.

Wu Chen was thinking about these things all the way, but he didn't realize how long it had passed. The carriage stopped, and Song Yu said outside the carriage: "We're here."

Song Yu took several government officials with him. Riding beside the carriage, they all dismounted, and the government officials lit torches.

Wu Chen got off the carriage and realized that he had just arrived at the village.

“Isn’t it in the back mountain?” Wu Chen asked Song Yu.

"Yes, but the carriage at the back of the mountain is difficult to drive. We have to bother Brother Wu to walk there. It's not too far..." Song Yu pointed to the front and said.

"Is there no one to lead the way? Does Song County Lieutenant know where it is?" Wu Chen asked.

“I have ordered the yamen to go to my husband’s house to call for someone, and they will lead the way in a while.”

As soon as Song Yu finished speaking, he saw a government official pushing someone, scolding him, and walking towards the carriage.

As he approached, the officer said: "This guy refused to come. He said he didn't dare to come near during the day, and he didn't even dare to go at night. His subordinates just arrested him."

As soon as the yamen servant finished speaking, a woman cried and cursed: "My eldest son has passed away." I have been made crazy by you, and now you are here to harm my youngest son. Today I will fight for my life with you!”

Wu Chen watched with cold eyes as a crazy woman stumbled away! Come over, followed by a middle-aged man with a long stick in his hand.

"Who else is there in the bride's husband's family?" Wu Chen asked Song Yu.

Song Yu hid behind a yamen servant and said, "These are the bride's parents-in-law. I heard that another daughter is already married."

Wu Chen looked at the yamen servant and said, "Tie up these three people." Come on.”

The government officials were stunned. Song Yu immediately shouted: "Hurry up and do it! Do you want to take a stick from him?"

The couple actually just came to make trouble, especially the woman, who was already a little scared when she saw so many government officials. , but is it so easy to get to the back mountain? (End of this chapter)
