Jiang Sanlang came out of the courtroom with his daughter in his arms, and Chun Niang and his father-in-law and mother-in-law gathered around her.
Chun Niang's eyes were red with anger. She took the cherry treasure and said to her husband: "Sanlang, let's go home and talk."
Jiang Sanlang was speechless, thinking about things in his mind.
The family of five got on the mule cart, driven by Jiang Sanlang, and headed for the city gate.
Yingbao suddenly thought of Wu Daozi and said quickly: "Father, mother, let's go to the inn first. I also want to say thank you to Uncle Wu."
She promised to give Wu Daozi gourd seeds and said she would take him to Simen Town to see the big gourds. She could not break her promise. Moreover, she also wanted to invite Uncle Wu to her village so that she could give him some golden fungus and snow fungus to taste.
taste.
"Okay, dad is going to thank Mr. Wu for saving Bao'er." Jiang Sanlang whipped his whip and rushed to the inn.
Gaojiadian is the name of the inn, and you can see the inn's colorful flags flying from a distance.
The mule cart stopped at the entrance of the inn, and Yingbao jumped out of the car first and ran to the inn, where she happened to meet Uncle Wu's servant Wu Rui.
"Uncle Wu, have Uncle Wu's official affairs been taken care of?"
Wu Rui was also very happy to see Ying Bao, "I was just looking for you. Our master is still busy, so he specially asked his servant to come over and take the young lady home today."
Ying Bao: "No, I'm with my grandparents, so I won't bother Uncle Wu to give it to me."
Wu Rui smiled and said: "In that case, I will report it to Master Ming later."
Jiang Sanlang and Chun Niang came over and saluted Wu Rui, "Thank you, Mr. Lang, and Mr. Lang for saving my daughter. I was just about to go and thank Wu Langjun. Is it convenient?"
Wu Rui waved his hand: "You're welcome, my husband said that he just took the little lady back with a little effort. The husband also said that if he has free time, he will go to your village to see your big gourd."
Then he whispered: "There are still many doubts about your family's case. Master Lang asks you to be patient. When the next county magistrate takes over, the case will be reviewed again."
Hearing this, Jiang Sanlang's eyes shone brightly, and he quickly saluted Wu Rui with his fists raised, "Thank you for informing me, brother."
Yingbao asked: "Uncle Wu, are you staying in the county and not leaving?"
Wu Rui smiled and said: "I won't leave for now."
"Then where do you live? I will go home and get some gourd seeds for Uncle Wu. Where should I find you?"
"Don't worry, little lady, I will come to pick up the seeds when the time comes. The place where our husband lives is rented now, and he will move in a few days." Wu Rui said with a smile.
"Okay." Ying Bao probably knew where Wu Daozi was an official.
Although the servant did not say it explicitly, his words revealed that his master would live in this county.
If an official who is about to take office stays in a certain county, it means that he has already arrived and is just waiting to take over.
Great, I will come over more often to get close to Uncle Wu.
Apart from other things, it is convenient to come here often to report some little black spots.
After saying goodbye to Wu Rui, the whole family changed their sad look and gradually became cheerful.
With Wu Rui's words, Jiang Sanlang felt much relieved knowing that there was still hope for this case.
"It will be almost the twelfth lunar month when the river work is over. I will come to the county town again then." Jiang Sanlang also roughly knew who Mr. Wu was, but he had to be grateful for saving his daughter.
Ying Bao nodded: "I want to come too." She was still thinking about the big tumor on Wu Daozi's neck.
In a previous life, when the Han family was involved in a lawsuit with their family, the county magistrate was not Uncle Wu. This shows that something unexpected happened to Uncle Wu within the next year and a half, which forced him to resign and leave.
This kind of accident is not only physical, but may also be caused by the death of a direct elder in his family, and he returns home to observe mourning.
Another possibility is that he offended his superiors and was removed from his official position.
No matter what happens, Ying Bao doesn't want to let it happen.
As the mule cart drove out of the county gate, Jiang Sanlang stopped the mule cart and said to his father: "Dad, come and drive the cart. I have to go to work on the river, so I won't send you back."
Old Man Jiang knew that his son had bribed the supervisor to come out, so he nodded and agreed: "Okay, then be careful. There seems to be a donkey cart over there. You can hire a cart to go back and save some legwork."
"Okay." Jiang Sanlang jumped out of the carriage and watched his father drive away.
Yingbao stuck her head out from the car curtain and waved to her father: "Dad, you have to go home early."
"Yes." Jiang Sanlang said with a gentle smile: "Please pay attention to safety on the road."
It wasn't until the mule cart drove far away and gradually became invisible that Jiang Sanlang turned around and walked into the nearby woods. He took out a dirty old clothes he wore when working as a river worker from his bag and put it on.
After thinking about it, he tore open another piece of clothing and wrapped it around his head and face, tried it and took it off again.
After packing up the package and wrapping it around my waist, I walked back out of the woods and walked slowly towards the county town along the official road.
It was already evening when Old Man Jiang drove home.
As soon as Yingbao entered the door, she saw her two younger brothers running towards her, hugging her sister and crying loudly.
"Okay, okay, let's see what sister brings to you?" Yingbao took out the books, copybooks, pens and papers she bought in the county.
Xiao Wu took the book and copybook he had been given, and suddenly he felt no longer sad. He wiped away his tears and looked at his sister with a resentful look on his face.
Xiaojie happily took the copybook and looked through it.
Ying Bao touched their heads and said with a smile: "You must study hard and become high officials in the future." Then support her sister.
The next day, before Ying Bao went to school, Mrs. Wen brought her daughter and son over to visit.
Wen Shu took Ying Bao's hand and asked worriedly: "Ying Bao, has the bad guy who captured you been punished?"
"Well, they were sentenced to five years." Ying Bao became angry when she thought of this.
"It is said that the Han sisters hired someone to commit the murder. How did the Han family get the sentence?" Mrs. Wen asked.
Yingbao pouted, "Chen Ergou took all the blame on himself, and the Ming Dynasty found the Han sisters not guilty."
Mrs. Wen sighed, knowing this would happen.
She has lived in this mountain village for some time and knows a little about Chen Changping's family.
The Han family's brother-in-law is much better off working under the county captain than the Jiang family who have no roots.
As long as they use some tricks, the Han sisters will be freed.
Fortunately, the Jiang family did not suffer a big loss, and it was a miracle that the child was recovered.
It's a pity that I don't know anyone in this county, otherwise I would have to try to clear up the relationship.
But then again, the criminal tried his best to take the blame, and even if he was cleared, it would be useless, and the final sentence would still be the same.
"It's good to be back." Mrs. Wen touched Yingbao's head and said, "I will come to your house to give you lessons every other day from now on."
Anyway, the child is still young, so there is no rush to study medicine.
Yingbao shook his head: "No need to trouble sir, I'm not afraid of bad people."
She just has to go to school every day.
If she encounters the same situation as last time, she will stab someone with the knife in the cave.
She was confused last time and was restrained before she could react. She will definitely be more careful in the future.
The few chatted for a while, and then Mrs. Wen took her children and left.
Before leaving, Wen Shu gave another book to Ying Bao, "You will rest at home these days. Please take the time to read this Shennong's Materia Medica. I will give you a test in the future."
