Genius Doctor Peasant Girl Chapter 124: Zhou’s defense
Early the next morning, the county magistrate opened a hearing on Chunsheng's kidnapping and extortion case.
The Zhou family was escorted to the county town the night before, after Chunfeng left the cell.
Zhou really wants to thank herself for being late, otherwise she would not escape the disaster according to Chunfeng's anger yesterday.
The day before, Mr. Zhou was still dreaming of making a fortune and receiving silver, but he didn't want to suddenly rush in a few yamen in the evening and immediately arrest people when he came up.
Only then did Mr. Zhou know that the matter had been exposed. Don't look at the plan, Mr. Zhou was very timid, but when he saw it, he was really going to arrest someone, and he almost urinated his pants.
It was just stupid in the same place, dragged away by the yacha, not even shouting grievances or resisting.
Uncle Chunfeng stopped in front of the two yamen: "Wait, two lords, what's the matter, why did you take people away? There must be a reason for arresting people. ?"
Boss Duan said it very politely. This is someone from the official family. He doesn't dare to provoke him casually, but he has to figure out what's going on.
"What's the matter? Ask your mother-in-law. He kidnapped your nephew, almost killed your nephew, and asked their family for a ransom of 1,000 taels of silver. Tell us whether we should arrest him or not. people?"
One of the leading yamen looked at Boss Duan and said coldly, and then said mercilessly: "If you say that your mother-in-law is really poisonous, you can also kill your own nephew, be careful. God will also give you the little life you gave me."
After listening to the yamen's words, Boss Duan's expression changed and he looked at Zhou again.
As soon as I saw Zhou's panicked look, I knew that what the yacha said was true.
Suddenly there was no sound, and Zhou was taken away just like that.
The three siblings Liu Xiang were also terrified. It seemed that his father was not going to take care of his mother.
This can't be done. If something happens to my mother, then her future reputation will be ruined.
With a vicious mother, who would dare to marry their daughter?
"Dad, you can't ignore your mother. If something happens to your mother, what will I do in the future? What will happen to my brother? My sister is still so young!"
Liu Xiang threw herself in front of Boss Duan and cried.
Boss Duan doesn't speak, just sits there silently and bows his head thinking about something.
"Dad, you talk, Daddy..." Liu Xiang was still shaking Boss Duan's arm.
Liu Yun, the youngest beside him, was already frightened and crying in the corner.
And Duan Qiusheng also looked at Boss Duan pitifully.
Boss Duan glanced up at the three children and sighed helplessly.
Why did I marry such a foolish woman?
No way, even if he doesn't want to take care of the three children, he has to take care of it.
But the key is whether he can handle this matter? It's all in the county government office.
But no matter what, he had to give it a try, so Boss Duan entrusted his two children to the neighbor next door, brought Liu Xiang with him, packed some money and rushed to the county seat.

The county magistrate sat high above the lobby, and the gavel on the case cracked.
The yamen below all shook the staff in their hands at the same time, and shouted "Mighty ~ Wu ~".
This scene is really exactly the same as the scene in a modern TV series, but the spring breeze at the moment is completely unwilling to appreciate it.
"Who is under the court?" When the voices of the yamen officers stopped, the court heard the classic opening remarks of the county magistrate that have remained unchanged for hundreds of years.
"People's daughter Chunfeng, people's woman He Wanqing, today will sue Duan Zhou from Qingshui Town for instigating Zhang Dashan's group, kidnapping others for extortion of money, and murdering people's lives."
Chunfeng and Chunfengniang took a step forward and knelt down and spoke in love.
"Well, come, bring Duan Zhou to court!" The county magistrate gave an order, and Zhou was escorted up.
Without sleepless nights, coupled with the worries and fears in her heart, the Zhou family suddenly became much older, and she was described as haggard.
As soon as Mrs. Zhou knelt down, she heard the county magistrate say kindly, "Mrs. Duan Zhou, today someone sues you for instigating kidnapping and blackmailing and killing people, can you plead guilty?"
"No, no, the adults are wronged, there are no civilian women, no!" Zhou Shi was frightened and frightened and shouted for himself.
She didn't want to go to jail, she didn't want to live that dark day, she didn't, so she thought about it all night.
The result of her outcome is that she must not admit this matter, she must not admit it, otherwise her life will be over.
"No? That Zhang Dashan and his gang have already confessed, how dare you deny it? Do you want the official to use punishment to be willing to recruit?" The county magistrate glared at the Zhou family.
As soon as he heard the punishment, Zhou Shi's heart trembled, and he quickly said: "It's really not a civilian woman, sir, you can tell me, yes, it was the flower matchmaker who instructed me, not me."
"Oh, there's another person instructing? You're actually recruiting!" The county magistrate raised his eyebrows, and he didn't expect that there was still a secret in the middle.
"Yes, at this time, it was originally going to start with the Xiang family in Qingshui Town, who said that they were married to their son. The son of the Xiang family has been ill since childhood, and it is said that he will not live to be twenty years old.
This year, the son is eighteen, and Xiang's family wanted to find a woman to carry on the lineage, but I heard that it has to be a woman who is full of blessings.
It just so happened that my eldest niece was such a character. After Xiang Jia found out, he sent the flower matchmaker with a thousand taels of silver to ask for marriage. As a result, my younger brother and sister did not agree, but the flower matchmaker was jealous. The reward promised by the family.
The flower woman found a way to kidnap the woman, but the woman didn't agree, but the flower matchmaker threatened me with my daughter's reputation, and the woman was a last resort.
Originally, she was going to kidnap the second girl of her family, and asked them for the thousand taels of silver, only to know that they couldn't get so much money, and wanted them to be forced to agree to Xiangjia's marriage.
Unexpectedly, they tied the wrong person and injured my nephew with the wrong hand. This thing is really not done by the women. The women just introduced Zhang Dashan to the flower matchmaker.
The women did not instruct them to kidnap people. It was the flower matchmaker who was jealous of the one thousand taels of silver. "
After crying and crying, Mrs. Zhou knelt on the ground, kowtowed repeatedly and shouted injustice.
It looks like she was wronged, but Chunfeng already knew everything through Xuan Yi's investigation.
Chunfeng sneered at Zhou Shi's acting there. In any case, Zhou Shi can't escape today, not only can't escape, she will also teach her a **** lesson.
As soon as the county magistrate heard this, he immediately sent someone to arrest the flower matchmaker.
"You said you didn't instruct them to kidnap people, so why do they all say you ordered it and you negotiated with them?"tqR1
The county magistrate looked at Zhou suspiciously and asked back.
"This...it must be the flower matchmaker who gave them a favor. When something went wrong, they told them that I ordered her to get out on her own." Zhou shi thought for a while.
