Chu Yunli drove the carriage. In order to show that she had no skills before, she stumbled and put the thief tied into rice dumplings beside the big cypress tree at the entrance of the village. Then she drove the carriage home. When she got home, the neighbors all looked over.
Look, regardless of the wealth of the village, farmers are actually willing to raise cows rather than horses. Cows can plow the land and pull carts, so it is cost-effective to raise them.
To put it bluntly, an ox can do what a horse can do, but a horse cannot.
"Borrowed it." Chu Yunli explained to everyone.
Regardless of whether outsiders believed it or not, she started unloading the car. When the villagers saw that she had bought things for the wedding, they all came over to help. They also observed what was there and how much it was. They speculated on how the wedding was going and whether the Cang family was generous or not.
Do you like this daughter-in-law, etc...
After unloading the things and asking the two brothers and sisters to look after the house, Chu Yunli drove the carriage away again, not forgetting to shout, "Everyone, give way, I'm not very good at driving, so be careful of getting hurt."
Everyone immediately dispersed and watched the carriage go away, all wondering, "Is driving a carriage so easy to learn?"
After leaving the village, Chu Yunli threw the people into the carriage again. After leaving the town, the carriage stopped stumbling and sped towards Fucheng.
It was just noon at this time. If we go faster, we can deliver the person before going to the Yamen.
She really wanted to send this man to collect the reward.
After walking for half an hour, there were no people around, and there was no one on the official road. Chu Yunli stopped the carriage, opened the curtain, and saw the ashen man inside.
If it's tied too tightly, it's useless to struggle.
Chu Yunli held the knife and frowned, "Do you have anything to say?"
The man whined, and Chu Yunli raised his hand to take the cloth from his mouth. He said urgently, "Please let me go..."
After so long, his voice became much weaker.
"Impossible!" Chu Yunli looked at the knife, "What I'm struggling with right now is whether I should just send you to the Yamen, or..." She put the knife between his neck, "and just send you with your head?"
"
Man: "..."
His face turned pale, and he scolded that girl's eighteen generations of ancestors in his heart. What do you mean by "just a mother and son from the countryside who have never seen the world"?
This woman stabbed him twice without changing her expression, like a butcher butchering a pig. If this woman has not seen the world before, then 90% of the people in the world have never seen the world.
He was cursing in his heart, but he didn't dare to stop, because he didn't know if he would have a chance to speak again after gagging him this time. Compared with being killed now, he naturally chose to be sent to the Yamen directly. After all,
, it is better to die than to live. Ants are greedy for life, and it is good to live one more day.
Moreover, most of the current laws are mainly based on punishment. If it is not a heinous crime, they will not be sentenced to death. Most of them will be sent to a barbaric land.
"Send me there like this, please!"
"You have a nice face, and I can tell you are a good person at first glance. I heard that you have never been out of town in your life, and you haven't killed anyone, right?" The man kept chattering, fearing that he would be blocked as soon as he stopped talking, "I won't lie to you, kill people."
After that, I will have nightmares for a long time. There is no need for you to take risks, just treat me like a fart and let it go."
"Actually, I'm confused because you talk too much." Chu Yunli interrupted him and touched the knife, "I'm just an ordinary country woman. I can kill chickens. I don't dare to hurt others. If adults ask
rise……"
The man suddenly had an idea, "I was being chased by my enemies. It has nothing to do with you! I was just seriously injured and fell on the roadside and was picked up by you..."
Chu Yunli was only half satisfied with this answer, wagging her finger, "I also want the adults to check for me who wants to do something to our mother and son. After all, the person behind this has not been found. Maybe someone else is coming to kill me.
I'm so afraid of trouble."
Man: "..." On this errand, whoever picks up the job will know whoever picks it up, and whoever picks it up will be unlucky!
"Then let me tell you, I was picked up by my enemies on the way to kill you after being paid to kill you. After I was injured, I happened to be picked up by you."
Chu Yunli felt funny in her heart. This man was quite quick-witted, but it was a pity that he didn't use it on the right path.
She was satisfied with this answer. To be honest, it didn't matter. She just didn't know what the prefect's temperament was. If she wanted to get to the bottom of it, it would be troublesome for her to explain it.
After all, it would be impossible for an ordinary woman to subdue such a strong man.
Before it got dark, Chu Yunli sent the person to the Yamen. He said that he picked it up on the roadside and it looked like he was not a good person, so he sent him to the Yamen.
Of course, she actually threatened him before sending him in.
It's best not to say it, because if you do say it, it won't matter.
Originally, the easiest way was to kill the person and give him his head. Firstly, it was a bit weird for a woman to carry the head and send it away. Most people would not dare. If she really gave away the head, she should be investigated. Secondly, she still wanted it.
Lord Magistrate, please check this person carefully. As long as you check, you won't be afraid that the He family will not be found!
For Li Tianxi, the He family is a giant and difficult to move. It is best to rely on its strength to fight.
After leaving the yamen with ten taels of silver, Chu Yunli felt quite novel about this. She didn't expect that there was such a way to make money. If there is a chance in the future, she could try it again.
We stayed at an inn and drove back with our carriage as soon as the city gate opened the next day.
It was still morning when we returned to the village, and everyone was making breakfast. When Chu Yunli returned home, Cang Qingyu's food was just on the table, and she said happily, "Mom, you are back!"
Chu Yunli demolished some of the fences in the yard and led the horses into the yard.
Cang Qingyu swallowed, "Mom, this carriage?"
"He will belong to our family from now on." Chu Yunli lowered his voice, "That man was indeed a wanted criminal, and the Yamen rewarded him with a reward. From now on, he said that I bought the carriage. We have never encountered a thief, unless you
I want outsiders to know that I dare to kill people!"
Cang Qingyu hurriedly covered her mouth, "I won't tell you!"
Chu Yunli was satisfied, so he unloaded the carriage and pulled the horse into the backyard. He planned to make a circle after the wedding or sell it. It was worth several taels of silver.
Just after breakfast, someone came to help. After Chu Yunli arrived, she helped cut vegetables for weddings and weddings in the village, and she cut them very quickly.
Neighbors should help each other, but there is a difference between helping and helping. Everyone sees Chu Yunli's work, and now that she is here, those people will naturally help her sincerely.
Mrs. He came early in the morning, along with carambola and several sisters-in-law of the Cang family. By noon, the courtyard of the Cang family was already in full swing.
The whole courtyard was filled with joy, and it became even more lively the next day. Chu Yunli hosted a banquet with plenty of meat and vegetables, so no one was dissatisfied.
On the morning of the tenth day of the lunar month, Cang Qingshan was preparing to pick up his bride. A carriage had already returned from the village entrance, and it was Pinkie.
This was said by the children who were playing at the entrance of the village when they came back. Everyone was quite surprised. They had heard that a woman who was a concubine could not go back to her natal family, so it was a great kindness to allow her natal family to meet at her husband's house. They didn't expect that Pink Die could come back.
Does this prove that the He family values her very much?
There are those who are smart and feel something is wrong in an instant, such as the He family. After Cang Qingshan set off, he went to Chu Yunli and whispered, "She must have a big belly now, right? I heard that these wealthy families like children the most, how could this happen?"
Are you asking her to come back now without fear of getting hurt?" Thinking of something, she looked excited, "Is it possible that the child is not from the He family at all and was kicked out?"
Chu Yunli: "..." I have such a rich imagination.
Not long after Pinkie left, Mrs. He helped her son get better. He even saw a girl two days ago and they were quite attracted to her. After a few days of contact, they could get engaged.
Today there is a good news for the Cang family, and Sun Cuizhu also came to help.
When Cang Qingshan got married, there were a lot of things going on, and people were looking for her from time to time. When Chu Yunli had time to quarrel with He, she looked up and asked, "Where did Cuizhu go?"
These words reminded Ms. He, she searched around and slapped her thigh, "It's broken!"
Not caring about talking to Chu Yunli, she hurried out and ran towards the village.
~~
Not long after Pinkie entered the village, the carriage was stopped by someone. When she opened the curtain, she saw Sun Cuizhu standing not far away, with the same smile and gentleness, "Bindie, are you back?"
Compared with his happy expression, Pink Die's expression was not so good, "Why are you here? Now I am the concubine of the He family. I am no longer a family member with you, nor are we the same people. Not to mention husband and wife, we are even friends.
No, from now on, we should have less contact with each other."
Her expression was cold and she was no longer as gentle as before.
Sun Cuizhu was in a daze. At this moment, Mr. He came over. She knew that Fendie had a different identity now. No matter how much she wanted to scold her, she couldn't scold her in person. She could only go up and pull her son away in private, "Hua'er is going too today."
I came to Cang's house, I saw it just now, and I was planning to find you, but you came here. Hurry up to me, talk to her more, it's important to finalize the marriage as soon as possible, and for others, you can
Forget it."
Facing the worried look on her mother's face, Sun Cuizhu couldn't say no. Then she saw the beautiful lady in the carriage with a cold pink face. She couldn't help but follow her mother's strength and get further and further away from the carriage.
Pinkie threw down the carriage curtain, ignored the irritability in her heart, and ordered the maid, "In a moment, find someone to ask if anything strange has happened to the Cang family in the past two days, and how did it happen?"
The maid responded softly.
Before the carriage even moved, I heard the sound of joy coming from the entrance of the village. If Pinkie felt something, she opened the small curtain of the window behind the carriage and saw a lively wedding team coming in from the entrance of the village and heading towards the Cang family.
To be fair, the team was not big, the sedan chair was not new, and the joy was played by the villagers, so the whole thing sounded earthy. But for some reason, she felt a little unwilling to do so as she listened.
Maybe it's because the sedan chair is bright red?
Thinking this way, I am getting more and more irritated!
~~
Chu Yunli didn't know what happened at the entrance of the village. At this time, she was smiling as she watched Cang Qingshan lead the bride to get off the sedan chair, slowly enter the door, bow three times and kowtow, and then send her to the bridal chamber.
Someone joked, "Sister-in-law Cang, don't cry, good days are ahead."
Chu Yunli didn't want to cry, but her mood was agitated and she couldn't calm down for a long time. This was Li Tianxi's emotion.
She was excited in her heart, but her face was calm and she smiled and said, "What a great thing, I won't cry."
