Chapter 125 Beating people is against the law
Early the next morning, An set foot on the road to the county seat with Weng Kuanhe.
Along the way, An was so anxious that she almost quarreled with the driver.
"Master, what do you think we should do first when we arrive in town?" Anshi was a little undecided.
Weng Kuanhe thought about it and said, "Let's go find his uncle first. Since his uncle is in town, we might ask him for some ideas."
Mrs. An sighed, her heart was agitated, and she was only thinking about her son.
Soon, the carriage arrived in the town, and An and his wife rushed all the way to the store of all things. When they arrived, they were stunned when they saw the big crossed seals.
"What's going on?" Anshi was shocked. Why was the whole store closed down? What on earth did her son do?!
"This eldest sister." Anshi quickly went to the store next to her and asked anxiously, "What's going on with the store of all things here? Why is it closed?"
The woman next to me cheered, "It's not because they were not well-intentioned and coveted the booming business of the shop across the street, so they came up with a bad idea to frame her. Fortunately, the frame-up didn't work out, and they even got themselves involved.
The shop was also closed down by the order of the county magistrate. The shopkeeper was imprisoned together with his nephew."
His cousin was also imprisoned?!
Anshi took a deep breath and almost fainted.
She originally thought about coming over and asking her cousin to help with the preparation, but now, the two of them went in together?!
An couldn't come back to her senses for a long time, Weng Kuanhe pulled her hard, "Songbai mother? Don't scare me, what's wrong with you?"
Being pulled by him, An came back to his senses, turned around, gritted his teeth and stared at Huahuawuwuwu.
She understood just now that if it wasn't related to these colorful things, her son and her cousin would definitely not be locked up!
Su Eli had just arrived at the store and was discussing with Master Wang what kind of candy to make today. In the blink of an eye, she saw Anshi rushing over like crazy.
"Su'eri, what a good thing you did!" An said through gritted teeth, almost as if he wanted to swallow her alive.
Su Eli knew the reason why she came here without even asking, and said slowly: "I have done many good things, but I don't know which one you are talking about, second aunt."
Anshi patted her thigh and burst into tears. The tone of her crying was as if she was singing in an opera.
"My life is miserable... I finally had a son, and you sent me to jail for your harm! You are his cousin, how can you be so cruel? Are you doing human affairs? Your cousin
You’ve already gone in, but you still have the heart to open a store, you’re so incompetent..."
When Mr. An cried like this, many people who had gone out shopping early to buy things gathered around curiously.
When An saw more people, she started crying even more. She pointed at Su Eli and said, "She has no conscience! Just because her brother did the same business as her, she ruthlessly sent her brother to jail."
Yeah, I only have one son, one son!"
Su Eli frowned slightly. She was not afraid of An's making trouble with her, but making such a fuss in front of her store really affected her business.
Besides, not everyone knows about Weng Songbai being imprisoned. It would be bad if someone misunderstood it and affected Huahua Wanwanshi's business.
She walked out calmly and said, "Second aunt, you mean that Weng Songbai should not be imprisoned."
"That's right!" Anshi wiped away her tears and snot, "He just shouldn't be locked up!"
"Then you are saying that our county magistrate is ignorant, made wrong judgments, and is a confused official?" Su Eli stared into her eyes and said word by word.
Just as An was about to speak, Weng Kuanhe suddenly pulled her.
This tug made Anshi wake up.
Talking about imperial officials in the street is not a small crime, she dare not say that!
"No... of course not!" An stuttered a little.
"So, you agree that the county magistrate did not make a mistake. Since you also know that he made a mistake, why did you come to my place to cause trouble? If he had done nothing wrong and had no reason, would he have been arrested?"
Su Eli's words left Anshi speechless and made everyone around her nod.
Yes, the current county magistrate is not a confused official. If there is no problem, how could he slander them?
Immediately, someone with knowledge of the matter started talking to the crowd about what happened yesterday. After everyone heard this, they all felt that the Store of All Things should be closed down.
"You, you are sincerely trying to get around me!" Seeing that she had the upper hand verbally, An's screamed and was about to rush forward and hit Su Eli.
Su Eli had long expected that she would have such a skill, so she immediately tilted her body and hid, blinking innocently at Anshi, "Second aunt, it is against the law to hit someone, do you also want to go in and accompany me?"
Isn’t it my cousin?”
Just as An was about to slap down the second slap, when he heard these words, his hand froze in mid-air, neither falling nor taking it back, and he was so embarrassed that he was sweating profusely.
"You, just wait for me!" After saying this, An was angry and embarrassed, and pulled Weng Kuanhe away.
Along the way, An was wiping her tears and slapped her husband many times, "Are you a dead person? People bully me so much, and you don't even know how to protect me! Look, that dead girl is going to ride on my head.
On!"
Weng Kuanhe drooped his face and refused to argue with her. His biggest headache now was the fact that his son was locked up. He had no time to worry about it.
Being impatient by her beating, Weng Kuanhe grabbed her hand and shook it hard, "Okay, you! If you hadn't found trouble, how could they treat you like this!? Besides, how is our son doing now?
Know!"
At the mention of her son, An's arrogance subsided and she burst into tears, "Tell me, has our son suffered?"
Weng Kuanhe said nothing and just continued walking forward.
After a while, they arrived at the yamen gate.
Seeing them looking inside, the yamen guarding the door asked them, "What are you here for?"
"Good Lord!" An said with a smile on his face, "Can we ask you about someone?"
"Say it."
The yamen servant couldn't tell whether he had a good temper or a bad temper, so An secretly said to him, "The one who was imprisoned yesterday is Weng Songbai and An Baofang. How are they doing now?"
"I was imprisoned? Why?" the officer asked.
"Because..." An was about to say something, but then changed her mind, "We don't know, and they didn't do anything!"
The yamen officer frowned, "If you haven't done anything, it should be a trivial matter. It will be out in three or two days at most. Why are you so anxious?"
