"I really don't know, what is this county magistrate doing to frame Sister Wan?" Lu Donglin couldn't understand this point.
"For money." Lu Ziyuan suddenly replied, "Money can make all the difference. Money is not everything. However, there is nothing a person can do without money. Some people will do anything for money." .”
Magistrate Du nodded, knowing in his heart that Lu Ziwan was referring to the couple who slandered Lu Ziwan for deceiving the people and the peasant woman who had been killed. If they hadn't been greedy for profit, these things would not have happened.
"Second uncle, the county magistrate naturally has a stake in the Li family's business. Before our factory opened, the Luo family came down to seek cooperation with the Lu family. Because of the Luo family's management attitude, I rejected it. Later, it was probably because of Mrs. Bai's behavior. Due to the high-level relationship, the manager of the Luo family chose to cooperate with the Li family, but I didn’t expect that the young master Luo would come down to apologize to me in person later. Then our Lu family cooperated with the Luo family and the Bai family. The Lu family opened a factory, and the Li family got such a big business. I lost it and lost it, so naturally I was unwilling to accept it. I thought that the people in the Li family must have been planning this matter for a long time, but they never found a chance to do it. And this time, the aunt's child died after being captured from me. I don’t know how the Li family found out about this, so the Li family took advantage of their power and set up this trap to prevent me from turning over, and wanted to bring down the Lu family factory, so that the Luo family would continue to cooperate with the Li family!"
"It's official." Magistrate Du nodded. All these matters had been revealed during the public trial. It was somewhat surprising that Lu Ziwan, who was not present at the trial, would know.
Lu Ziyuan saw Du Zhifu's doubts in her eyes, but had no intention of explaining. To convict a prisoner, evidence was always required. Even if she said that Li Caidi confessed to her personally, as long as Li Caidi denied it in court. , it’s no use either.
"Mr. Du, the civilian woman is grateful for Mr. Du's help. After she came back last night, she specially prepared a gift to give to Mr. Du. She originally planned to send it in person in two days, but she never thought that Mr. Du would come here and invite you. Wait a minute, I'll go inside to get it."
"Master Magistrate, I heard from my brother-in-law that you were the number one scholar before?" Lu Banxia asked softly as he walked out from behind He Chunmei with his head in his head.
"Yes." Magistrate Du nodded and smiled.
"In the future, I will be like you, take the top exam, become a high official, and benefit the people!" Lu Banxia clenched his fists as he spoke, with determination in his eyes, "Being an official can also protect the people. My family will not be bullied!”
"You're so ambitious, little guy! Then I'll wait for you to grow up and become my colleague!" Magistrate Du laughed out loud and touched Lu Banxia's little head, "Maybe, this Hexi Village can really make a difference. There’s a champion!”
When Lu Ziyuan walked out of the house with the scroll, she happened to hear what Magistrate Du said, "Master Du, please don't praise my brother. The little kid can't help but praise me. Besides, ordinary farmers like us have never thought about it." If you really want him to take the scientific examination and become a high official in the future, and send him to a private school, I hope he can learn to read and learn principles, and at least not become a deadbeat in the future."
"Sister, I will definitely be a high official in the future, like Magistrate Du, a good official!" Lu Banxia pouted unconvinced, "Brother-in-law, do you believe what I say?"
"Trust? Our Banxia family is the most powerful!" Lian Guanlang chuckled.
