Chapter 232 Anyone who spreads pornographic rumors should die
"Maybe it was a moment of weakness..." Duan Qingshan said with some uncertainty, feeling even more ashamed in his heart.
He really had forgotten his identity.
He dared to go beyond the Lord in everything and made his own decisions without saying anything. He didn't even find out the cause of the matter clearly and just went on to show his courtesy.
It’s better to use the Lord’s face to show courtesy...
"I was wrong, my lord."
Duan Qingshan lowered his head, feeling really embarrassed to see others at this moment.
Jiang Anning understood immediately. Even Duan Qingshan didn't know the reason for this.
It's just because of some small thoughts that I went to someone else's wife and showed my courtesy.
But...why did the late wife do such a thing?
Duan Qingshan, a bandit leader, is full of violent and rebellious ideas in his heart, which is understandable.
Seeing how he turns dark at every turn, one can guess that this is not a peaceful master.
She didn't know what this man wanted to do if he insisted on staying with her.
But Wan Niang is an honest and humble woman who only wants to find a dutiful man and live a stable life... Why did she take in these victims?
Not to mention, taking in disaster victims is, at best, a kindhearted act, a meritorious deed, and worthy of praise.
But if the worst is to be said, it is not impossible for someone with ulterior motives to use this matter to cause trouble.
If someone is labeled as a rebel, it is a serious crime of beheading!
Even if you encounter someone who accuses you of seeking fame and reputation, and pours a basin of dirty water on you saying that you are a fake aid and a true hypocrite, it will be enough to tarnish your reputation. Attracting thousands of people to attack and curse.
Kindness is always the easiest thing to let down.
The late wife should not be so confused, right?
Jiang Anning frowned slightly, confused.
It seems that I still have to ask my wife to come over and ask for clarification.
"Who is Mr. Song?"
Jiang Anning frowned and asked.
Duan Qingshan hurriedly answered: "That's Mr. Song Yubao Song."
"However, this sir, is actually a high praise!"
"Actually, Song Yubao is just the prison guard who guards the county government prison. He is not worthy of being called an adult. However, there are rumors that he is the brother-in-law of the county magistrate, so everyone respectfully calls him 'Master Song'."< br>
Jiang Anning was slightly surprised.
"Song Yubao?"
"Yes, yes!" Duan Qingshan was surprised when he saw her, so he couldn't help but ask, "Do you know me, my lord?"
Jiang Anning shook her head: "Not familiar."
It was just that she had asked someone to deliver something to her a few times. It was a coincidence that she had entrusted Wan Niang to find someone to deliver this thing.
I wonder if this has anything to do with it?
Duan Qingshan secretly watched for a while, but he really couldn't tell the person's mood and anger, so he couldn't help but take the initiative to speak and expressed his loyalty: "Don't worry, Lord, I will definitely disperse those people when I turn around, and I will never do anything secretly again." Decision.”
Can you please not drive him away?
His eyes were a little pitiful.
Like a big dog that wants to please people but doesn't dare to wag its tail.
It's just that this expression is really inconsistent with his fierce and sinister face.
Jiang Anning rolled her eyes at him: "Since the government has come forward to help verify and confirm that these people are innocent, why should I be the evil person?"
She said, her voice paused: "Where are these people placed now?"
If they lived just outside the city and were self-reliant, it would have nothing to do with her.
Even if she wanted to be a villain, she couldn't care less.
Duan Qingshan suddenly became panicked and his buttocks tightened.
Jiang Anning raised her eyebrows and smiled: "You are hiding something from me again?"
Duan Qingshan lowered his head in shame: "No, no... it is, it is placed in your villa outside the county town."
"What?"
The next few words he said were so unclear that Jiang Anning didn't hear them clearly at all.
"Place it in that other courtyard outside your county."
Duan Qingshan repeated it hummingly.
Jiang Anning slammed the table angrily: "If you really don't want to say it, then stop saying it!"
Whose appetite is being deliberately whetted by the constant chatter and vagueness?
Duan Qingshan whispered softly: "It was placed in your villa outside Jiang'an County."
"What... I'm in a separate courtyard outside Jiang'an County?"
Jiang Anning was so surprised that she couldn't close her mouth from ear to ear: "When did I have a separate courtyard outside Jiang'an County?"
Why didn't she know?
"The government has ordered you to return the deserted courtyard that the Zhao family bought with your dowry."
"It looks like it has been abandoned for many years. The place is spacious, but there are not many rooms. Now everyone just cleans up the weeds in the yard and builds a few simple shacks."
Duan Qingshan explained the current situation in detail: "It's just that the weather is getting colder now, especially in the morning and evening. Adults can still carry it, but the elderly, children, and pregnant women are becoming more and more miserable."
< br>
“Not long ago, several people fell ill.”
He carefully looked at the person's face and sighed: "But everyone's current conditions are like this. No one can raise extra money. There is a quota for free medical treatment in Anjifang, but there is nothing we can do about it all at once. Treating so many people at the same time.”
"Not to mention the doctors at Anjifang rarely go out for outpatient clinics."
"Those people have not been able to successfully settle down. They cannot enter the city without a household registration certificate. If the doctors don't come here, there will be no way to cure the disease."
Jiang Anning frowned slightly.
Compared with these things, she wanted to know when exactly she bought a house outside the county.
... Even the Zhao family did defraud her of a lot of money under various names.
But I have never heard that there is such a property?
And...since there is such a property, why has no one told her about it?
Nowadays, she has taken in so many people, but she only found out about it by accident.
"Who told you that this villa belongs to me?"
Jiang Anning frowned. He didn't care about things that had nothing to do with him. He just wanted to figure out this matter that was closely related to him.
"Where is this courtyard? You told me carefully."
Duan Qingshan was a little confused: "Master Song said it, and this is something everyone knows."
"It's all written on the notice at the Yamen Gate, just outside the city, on the wasteland near the official road."
"Originally, it was not a wasteland. A lot of peanuts, sweet potatoes, corn, etc. were planted on this land before."
"It's just that the harvest is not very good."
"Later on, it was gradually abandoned. I heard that it was abandoned after it was bought back by the Zhao family and there was no one to cultivate it."
He seemed to understand something suddenly. He opened his eyes wide and asked in surprise: "You don't know?"
Jiang Anning glared at him.
Of course she doesn't know.
However, it seems that she did not read the official notice at that time.
Moreover, didn't the government just announce at that time that they would slap Zhao Hai on the street and severely crack down on this unhealthy trend of defrauding his fiancée in dowry, so as to serve as a warning to others?
Why did you announce the Zhao family and what properties were embezzled from her?
"From the meaning of Mr. Song's words, it seems that Mrs. Zhang confessed it again in prison."
Duan Qingshan said: "Originally, the county magistrate did not know that the property dispute between the Zhao family and yours had already been divided... Not long ago, Mrs. Zhang could not bear the punishment and took the initiative to confess the matter. Son, she said she hoped you would show your favor, but now she has returned all the properties and houses she defrauded from you, no less.”
He swallowed carefully: "He also said that she doesn't owe you anything anymore."
Don’t owe? How is that possible!
Jiang Anning sneered.
They still owe him their life!
How could it be that just by returning something, it could be written off?
Don't even think about it.
"So that's it."
She glanced at Duan Qingshan: "I actually don't know about this at all."
Duan Qingshan said hurriedly: "It's the slave's fault! I didn't inform you in time. This matter was suddenly posted by the government when you were at Mrs. An's house."
"At that time, Mr. Song learned about the incident from Mr. Zhang and immediately reported it to the county magistrate."
"I just happened to catch up with the two yamen who took people to Jiangjiacun for resettlement but returned without success."
"The county magistrate is worried about how to solve this matter."
"Master Song took the opportunity to talk about it."
"It can be regarded as giving the county magistrate an idea and sending a timely rain."
Duan Qingshan swallowed carefully and felt that Jiang Anning's face did not look good.
"Their idea, what they call timely rain, is to place these people in, I don't know when, an extra courtyard?"
It was also announced to the whole county!
But it’s really...one trick that can be eaten all over the world!
Before, she went to tell the Zhang family about Zhao Yinlian's death. Not long after, the government posted a notice saying that Sheng Yuewen had killed her.
Now here we go again...
After this incident, I am afraid that those people want to say that this other courtyard does not belong to her, and no one in the yamen can agree.
Not to mention the victims who were rejected by Jiangjiacun and left homeless and with no place to settle.
Even if this villa didn't belong to her, and the Zhao family didn't buy it behind her back with her money, it still had to be hers now.
Even the good reputation of helping those victims like saving all sentient beings must belong to her.
I just don’t know why they, the people, are trying so hard to elevate her to a level that she shouldn’t have.
To kill?
Or some other plan?
Jiang Anning always felt that nothing good would fall from the sky in this world.
Showing courtesy for nothing is either cheating or stealing.
Especially this one, who goes to great lengths to boost your reputation and put you in the position of a good person.
And both times, Song Yubao participated.
In the past, I was afraid that I had underestimated this person's delicate thoughts.
Jiang Anning thought about it carefully.
Fortunately, in order to cause trouble for Mrs. Zhang, she paid close attention and asked the bride to arrange some small gifts that were not fancy, not too conspicuous, and not easily rejected, and sent them to her door frequently.
Thinking about it, there should be nothing to offend anyone?
"What do people outside say about me now?"
Jiang Anning suddenly remembered the gossip she heard while riding a bullock cart back to Jiangjia Village not long ago.
Originally, I was still thinking about asking Aunt Fang about it.
She didn't expect that Zhou Ran's incident would happen... She didn't have a chance later, and some small things were really not worth taking to heart, so she ignored them.
Now she was suddenly reminded.
Duan Qingshan's face was as green as a dish, and he hesitated: "Yeah, I didn't say anything..."
He felt guilty. When Jiang Anning stared at him, he immediately surrendered: "These are not very nice words. I'm afraid I will dirty your ears if I say them."
"Say it."
Jiang Anning straightened her clothes slightly: "I also want to hear what other ugly things they can say."
Could it be as unpleasant as what the Zhao family said?
Duan Qingshan hesitated again and again, but finally couldn't bear the pressure of Jiang Anning's glare. He cleared his throat, bit the bullet, and started to pick up the gossip in the streets.
"Hey! What's going on? Then the matter between the Jiang family's An Ning and the Zhao family has come to an end a long time ago? The one surnamed Zhao has even run away. I heard that no one has been arrested yet. How can this happen? Post another notice?”
"Let me take a look, what is written on the notice this time... Ouch! It's really amazing! Damn it! What kind of work does the Jiang family An Ning do? How can she be so rich? She can buy two properties on her own? But the magistrate is wrong, isn't she? Where to go? Even if she can really make money, she will probably be the first born in the family, or marry well... But I heard that her parents died young and left her no inheritance at all, and she even owed She had a lot of foreign debt, and all the debt collectors came to her house and emptied her house of everything.”
"She is not married, so how could she have so much money to buy so many fields and properties? There must be nothing fishy about it."
"Yeah, how can a woman make so much money?"
"I have heard about it a long time ago. In fact, this is not what the notice says!"
"What inside story do you know? Tell me."
"Actually, it wasn't Zhao Hai who deceived Jiang Anning at all! It was Jiang Anning who united with her wild men outside to plot against the Zhao family!!"
"It's not that Jiang Anning has the ability at all. He earned so much wealth because of the Zhao family's calculations!! The Zhao family is the one who really has the ability to make money!!"
"It was also the Zhao family's great misfortune. They talked about such an unmarried daughter-in-law, and she teamed up with her concubines to plot against them. The whole family was ruined."
"Oh my god!!"
"It turned out to be like this. I asked, how could Jiang Anning be so capable? He embezzled the money from his fiancé's family and passed it off as his own."
"Isn't this confusing right and wrong?"
"It's so shameless!"
"Then who is Jiang Anning's mistress? We have to pull him out and scold her together."
"Then I don't know."
"I heard that there is more than one concubine!"
Duan Qingshan followed suit, but when he saw the man's livid face, he immediately didn't dare to say anything anymore.
He coughed twice uncomfortably: "That's about it."
In fact, there are even more outrageous claims. It is said that Zhao Hai did not escape from prison at all. Jiang Anning and her concubines were worried that the matter would be exposed, so they joined forces and poisoned Zhao Hai in prison, but in turn framed him to escape. Beat the person into a wanted criminal who everyone calls for beating.
The corners of Jiang Anning's lips were slightly curved. It looked like she was smiling, but in fact, her face was full of sarcasm.
"That's it?"
It was more polite than what the Zhao family said.
However, it's almost the same...even, these words seem a little familiar.
Jiang Anning frowned slightly, and after thinking for a while, she finally realized something was wrong.
It was arranged that she had concubines outside and had affairs with many men. She was disgusted that the money she earned was not earned cleanly...
Aren't it the same people from the Zhao family and Jiangjia village who would curse her words in the past?
Although there are slight deviations in the choice of words and sentences, the purpose is almost the same.
They all want to discredit her innocence.
"Do you know where these words come from?"
Jiang Anning suspected that someone was secretly causing trouble.
Duan Qingshan shook his head: "It is most difficult to determine the source of such gossip spread in the streets. Everyone is relying on the fluke mentality that the law will not punish the public, and thinking, 'I just said a bad word, and it won't kill anyone. ’, I am used to spreading rumors, and I will inevitably add fuel to it and imagine it on my own. Even if I find the source, I am afraid that it will be completely different from what I said at the beginning. "
Jiang Anning had a stern look on her face.
She was a little suspicious.
The biggest possibility is the Zhao family.
Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence that even though they were strangers to her, they could compose a rhyme about her by opening and closing their mouths.
"Does any of you know the whereabouts of Zhao Jiang?"
Ever since Zhao Jiang ran away that day, it was as if he had disappeared from the world, and there was no news from him.
