Rumors are like the plague, blowing away like the wind, blowing into everyone's ears.
It was already noon when Da Zhuang returned to Hexi Village from the county. When he returned to the Lu family, the Lu family was crowded with people.
"Dazhuang! Why are you back alone? Where are Jiang Rong and Lian Guanlang?" He Chunmei supported Ge Rui and walked towards Dazhuang. The two of them looked at the oxcart outside. They didn't see Lu Ziwan, nor did they see Lu Ziwan.
Not seeing Lian Guanlang, the two suddenly became nervous.
"Old madam, the master is with his wife in the county jail." Da Zhuang wiped the sweat from his head.
"What do you mean?" Lu Donglin took a few steps forward, "In the county jail? Guan Lang was also arrested?"
Lu Donglin's rhetorical question made He Chunmei almost cry, "How could this happen?"
"No!" Da Zhuang quickly shook his head and waved his hand, "The master was not arrested, but went in by himself. The master feels sorry for his wife who is alone in the county jail, and he wants to stay with her."
Lu Donglin was stunned, but He Chunmei reacted first, "Why is this Guan Lang so impulsive? The county jail is a place that eats people without spitting out their bones. How can you just go in? What if someone doesn't let him out after he goes in?
manage?"
"Da Zhuang, have you seen Sister Wan? How is she suffering in prison?" Ge Rui asked with concern.
"I see, Madam is fine." Da Zhuang said, "Many doctors came to our county to help Madam play drums and appeal for grievances, but they were all imprisoned in the county jail by the county magistrate. Madam's death sentence was also commuted by Your Majesty. I
Don't worry, brother Rong has already gone to the state capital."
"Why did he go to the state capital?" He Chunmei could only think about her daughter now. When she thought about her going to prison, she couldn't sleep well all night.
"Old Madam, it turns out that Brother Rong and the Master are the magistrate's saviors. The Master is accompanying Madam in prison, so Brother Rong goes to the prefecture to find the Magistrate, begging the Magistrate to uphold justice for Madam and restore her innocence. Old Madam, you can
Don't worry, my wife is acquainted with some government officials in the prison, and those people are pretty good to her. The Bai family also went to the county jail today and asked the government officials to take care of my wife. When I saw her, she was not injured," Da Zhuang said.
.
When they heard that Lian Guanlang and Jiang Rong had saved the prefect's life, everyone was shocked and couldn't believe their ears. Everyone asked Lian Guanlang how he could do anything about the prefect. Da Zhuang just shook his head.
Said he didn't know.
A few people were talking when Ge Dashan walked in from outside the door with a worried look on his face and said, "I don't know who killed a thousand swordsmen is spreading rumors outside, saying that the head of our Lu family, Sister Wan, is in jail and this factory will be destroyed."
If it goes bankrupt, the wages will definitely not be paid. There are a lot of people at the factory gate asking for this month's wages, saying that if the wages are not paid to them today, everyone will move the factory's goods away."
"What!" Lu Donglin was angry and angry, "Who is spreading rumors everywhere!"
"Brother and sister, you are here to help me look after my wife. I will go to the factory to take a look now." Lu Donglin was a little anxious, "Sister Wan has only been here for a few days. We cannot let Sister Wan still worry about things in the factory in prison.
, it’s already hard enough for her, we can’t bother her with family matters, hey, I don’t know how many days it will take to get back and forth from the state capital!”
"Even if we take a carriage to and from the state capital, it will probably take five or six days to go back and forth." Da Zhuang continued.
However, Lu Donglin had already left the yard and ran all the way towards the factory, and did not let Da Zhuang tell Lu Ziwan in the county jail.
There was a crowd of people at the entrance of the factory. I don’t know who heard the news that the Lu family factory was going to close down first. I don’t know how it spread to the factory. Those workers who were still working immediately stopped what they were doing and started looking for food.
The boss asked for wages, and said that if they didn't pay this month's wages, they would take away the dolls made in the factory to pay for their wages.
"Dong Lin, even the Guan Lang family's daughter-in-law has been arrested. Maybe this factory will collapse. You should pay us wages first. In the future, wages will be settled once a day, so that we can pay with peace of mind.
