If Chu Yunli hadn't reminded her just now, when the Zhao family brought a doctor to say these words, Mr. Liu would have sought treatment from a doctor. If those doctors agreed that Fan Li was mentally and emotionally wrong, he would have regarded her as a lunatic.
disposal.
How can you believe what a madman says?
In this way, the Zhao family can be freed from guilt again.
After the shock, Mr. Liu looked at Chu Yunli in front of him again, "Did you discover the Zhao family's actions in advance?"
"No!" Chu Yunli said calmly, "But there are only a few ways to get rid of the crime. Either the master doesn't know, and the servants make their own decisions. If the evidence of the crime is conclusive, then the master is a madman who bit him randomly."
Mr. Liu thought thoughtfully, "How do you know so much?"
Chu Yunli: "..."
If it were Chen Chunhua, she would naturally not have thought of this. But she is different. She has experienced so much. What kind of person has she not seen? She can guess some of the thoughts and practices of the Zhao family.
Master Liu did not wait for her answer and ordered, "Let them come in. Also go and find Fan Li."
The official responded and left.
Chu Yunli hurriedly said, "The old lady is at Xiaoju Inn."
Mr. Liu was startled again, thinking deeply.
The Zhao family brought three doctors, all of whom were famous doctors in the city. When they saw Chu Yunli already there, the Zhao family and his wife were quite surprised, "What are you doing here?"
Chu Yunli asked, "What does it have to do with you?"
Mrs. Zhao was not angry and wanted to talk more. Master Zhao pulled her back, and then the two of them talked seriously about Mrs. Fan's madness.
The three doctors all said that the old lady was abnormal, agitated and irritable. What she said could not be used as testimony. It might just be caused by hysteria.
Mr. Zhao took over the conversation, "I did like Miss Fan back then, but she really died of illness. As for the death of other members of the Fan family, we did not intervene. If our Zhao family was so vicious that we killed everyone, how could we leave an old lady behind?"
?You want her to complain now?"
Speaking of this, Mr. Zhao felt so sick that he couldn't help it. Nowadays, ordinary people have to take a detour when passing through the yamen. How did he know that an old lady would have the guts to complain?
What's more, the Zhao family is a giant in the eyes of the people. Who dares to go against it?
If he had known this, he would never have left this seemingly harmless old lady behind.
Mr. Liu was silent for a moment.
After a while, the officer picked up the old lady. Just as he was about to enter, Chu Yunli suddenly said, "The old lady will be more emotional when facing the Zhao family. If you want to judge, it is best to let the Zhao family avoid you."
.”
But Mr. Liu didn't think this request was too much. He waved his hand and said, "You go to the room next door and wait."
Mrs. Zhao looked worried, "Sir, that's a crazy woman, be careful she hurts you!"
Chu Yunli interrupted her, "In all these years, I haven't seen her fight with anyone. Only when she sees you and your wife will she become resentful and curse endlessly!" She said to Mr. Liu, "Sir, if you still want to
Find out the truth and don't let the old lady see them."
Seeing that Mrs. Zhao wanted to say more, Chu Yunli took the lead and said, "Even if the old lady is irritable and irritable, wouldn't irritable and irritable people be wronged and not worthy of redressing the grievances of their relatives?"
Even if he is a lunatic, he was driven crazy by the Zhao family.
Master Liu waved his hand, "You go next door!"
They were already a little impatient as they spoke, and the Zhao couple did not dare to argue anymore, so they had to go next door.
Seeing this, Chu Yunli felt slightly relieved.
The old lady bowed her head as soon as she entered the door, "Sir, please make the final decision for me, the Fan family."
Mr. Liu nodded and said gently, "Bring a chair to the old lady."
After sitting down, Mrs. Fan's nervous expression relaxed slightly. Mr. Liu was not in a hurry to ask her about the case, "How old will you be this year?"
Mrs. Fan answered honestly, and then Mr. Liu asked her about the price of food she usually buys, how much she eats in a month, and how much she spends in a year, just like chatting.
His tone was gentle and the questions he asked were irrelevant. Mrs. Fan thought Mr. Liu was aware of the public sentiment and answered them all honestly and seriously.
Chu Yunli sat next to him, becoming more and more relaxed.
Half an hour later, Mr. Liu was sure that he was an ordinary old woman in front of him, and then he said, "Tell me everything before and after your son and grandson's accident. For example, who saw it, who helped your family, and what they helped.
, so that I can find them to testify for you."
The old lady was overjoyed and hurriedly reported the names of several people. "They all think that the cause of death of my children and grandchildren is strange. Also, my daughter-in-law does not want to remarry, and many gangsters come to bully our mother-in-law and daughter-in-law." By the way, she also mentioned the names of several gangsters and their names.
residence.
Mr. Liu raised his voice and ordered, "Go find them and question them."
Someone answered the call and left.
Seeing that Mr. Liu really started to review what happened back then, Mrs. Zhao couldn't sit still and rushed over from the next door, "Sir, she is a madman. How can you believe what a madman says?"
"I'm not crazy." The old lady has been told by Chu Yunli in the past two days not to go crazy and hit people. If people think she is crazy, Master Liu will not believe her.
Thinking of this, the old lady's hands on her knees were clenched tightly, her eyes were heavy, and she was obviously patient and on the verge of breaking out.
Seeing this, Chu Yunli hurriedly held her hand and said gently, "Your Excellency is already summoning the witnesses from back then. I will seek justice for you and punish the evildoers severely." He lowered his voice again and said, "You rush up and beat her.
One meal will probably scratch your face at most, and you may not be able to hit anyone if you are surrounded by government servants. Then it will be your fault, so it is not worth it. It is best to wait for the adults to find out the truth, and then make them pay with their lives."
As soon as the word "pay for life" came out, the old lady calmed down completely.
Mr. Liu was at the top and saw the old lady's momentary tenseness and Chu Yunli's gentle persuasion. When he looked at the Zhao couple again, his expression became much more serious, "I asked you to stay next door, why do you want to come here again?"
?”
Mrs. Zhao was speechless and pointed at the old lady, "Three doctors said she is crazy. Do you really believe her?"
Mr. Liu looked unhappy, "I know whether I'm crazy or not. Do I need your guidance when I do things?"
"You all stay next door. If you come out again, you will be punished for obstructing official business!"
Soon, the official brought many people over. It had been too long and it was difficult to find out the matter. However, Mr. Liu inquired deeply and found everyone who had witnessed the incident. It was not until late at night that he finally found out.
.
The man who pushed the old lady's son into hitting the carriage was found. Some people saw it with his own eyes. However, the rich man who hit him directly paid the money. The Fan family thought they were unlucky and buried the man. How could he dare to come out and say this.
After catching the pusher, after a few steps, he found out that it was the Zhao family's steward who ordered him to do it.
Then the people who killed the old lady's grandson were brought in and tortured, and they learned that they were also ordered to do it by the manager of the Zhao family.
The two stewards were brought over while they were still under the covers. They didn't get any instructions from their master in advance.
Late at night, Mr. Liu became more and more energetic as he interrogated. Together they brought Yang Guan over from the prison and asked him all the questions.
The Zhao couple and three doctors were listening next door. The two government officials at the door were guarding the door at first, and gradually there were two more. This time they were guards. As long as they wanted to go out, the government officials would stop them.
I can't leave even if I want to.
Until the light of day dawned, Mr. Liu already had a thick stack of confessions in his hand, and said in a deep voice, "Zhao Chuan and his wife Gong killed people for their own selfish desires. They should be put into prison immediately and will be tried again at a later date!"
He has been jailed, which proves that there is already suspicion on him. Just like Chen Chunhua at the time, if he didn't know all the questions during the interrogation, he would be punished.
At that time, there will be no servants to take care of them!
Chu Yunli felt more and more relaxed. The old lady who had stayed up all night knelt down in front of Mr. Liu with tears streaming down her cheeks. "Thank you, Sir. When you go back, the old lady will definitely provide you with a longevity tablet..."
Mr. Liu was also very moved by such sincere gratitude, and also annoyed the Zhao family who wanted to confuse his sight.
When Chu Yunli helped the old lady out of the Yamen, it was bright and bright. As they returned home, the news that the Zhao couple had disregarded human life also spread.
Anyone who is imprisoned has at least a preliminary conviction, and few people can escape intact. Of course, Chen Chunhua is an exception.
The Zhao family is finished!
As the news spread, many people confirmed that after the Zhao couple were imprisoned, they went to the Yamen to complain.
The Zhao family has done a lot of things over the years, such as forced buying and selling. Many people have no choice but to endure it because of the powerful Zhao family. Now, the Zhao family and his wife are guilty. If they don't seek justice for themselves,
I won’t be able to ask for it anymore.
If you sue for forced buying and selling, you can still get compensation.
At first, Mr. Liu thought that the Zhao family was too good to be jealous of others. But as more and more people complained, and every piece of personal and material evidence was available, he suddenly realized that it turned out that the Zhao family
I did so many things without telling him.
The charges against the Zhao couple have yet to be decided, and Mr. Liu has already ordered his son to write a concubine release letter.
It's not that he couldn't tolerate a woman when he fell into trouble, but that Miss Zhao, who was his son's concubine, violently beat the girl next to him to death before they got married. Now, the girl's parents came to the door with the compensation given by the Zhao family.
If you file a complaint, Miss Zhao will be convicted.
As more people have been summoned by the Yamen recently, the charges against the Zhao family and his wife have become more and more serious. Even other members of the Zhao family have been involved, and they have all done something wrong. However, in a few days, the Zhao family
Including those who served him closely were all imprisoned.
The Zhao family had not yet convicted Yu Fu and it was time for execution. Chu Yunli made a bowl of braised pork rice with her own hands and took it to the execution ground.
Yu Fu was so scared that he was dragged to the execution platform. His face was covered with tears and snot. When he saw Chu Yunli, he cried even harder, "Mom, I don't want to die... I don't want to die..."
Chu Yunli put the rice in front of him, and Yu Fu immediately devoured it.
She said slowly, "If you had listened to me back then, how would you have ended up today?"
Yu Fu quickly finished the rice in the bowl. He was startled when he heard this and cried, "I was wrong, mother... please help me, please?"
No one can save him.
Not long after the time came, Yu Fu cried and begged, and began to curse endlessly. The executioner raised the knife and dropped it. Blood spattered, and two lines of tears fell from the corners of Chu Yunli's eyes.
She stretched out her hand to wipe it, turned and left.
A month later, the Zhao family was convicted. The Zhao family and his wife were involved in more than a dozen murders and more than 20 cases of forced buying and selling. They were sentenced to death.
It was the end of autumn, and the conviction was only a few days away. It was still the place where Yu Fu was executed. The Zhao family and his wife were taken there, and Chu Yunli went to see her off. They hated her so much that they gritted their teeth, but they were helpless to do anything about her.
When the time came, the couple set out on the road together.
As for the rest of the Zhao family, some have been imprisoned for five to ten years, and almost none of them have escaped unscathed.
After that time, Chu Yunli could finally live a peaceful life.
An Qiaoqiao often came to drink tea with her, and the two got along well. After drinking for half a year, Chen Jiqing initially persuaded her not to come, but gradually, she was able to drink tea with her.
Half a year later, An Qiaoqiao suddenly stopped coming.
Chen Jiqing came here for two days without waiting for anyone, so he couldn't help but ask Chu Yunli.
Chu Yunli suddenly realized, "Qiaoqiao said that her parents asked her to meet a cousin from the capital. If everything goes well, they will get married this year, and she will move to the capital during the Chinese New Year!"
Chen Jiqing's eyes widened in surprise, "How is that possible?"
Chu Yunli raised her eyebrows, "She is already seventeen, why is it impossible?"
Chen Jiqing was stunned.
After standing for a while, he turned around and ran away in a hurry.
The next morning, Chen Jiqing came over happily and said, "Aunt, Qiaoqiao doesn't want to marry my cousin, but she has agreed to marry me. Hurry up and find someone to come to propose marriage."
Chu Yunli: "..." Who was unhappy in the first place?
Seeing that she didn't speak, Chen Jiqing urged, "Aunt, hurry up. Qiaoqiao said that she finally convinced her uncle and aunt. If they change their mind, where can I find a wife?"
Chu Yunli: "..." I really couldn't bear to tell him that Mrs. An had already discussed the marriage of her two children with her as early as two months ago.
Everyone is happy!
After the Zhao family's case was settled, Mr. Liu took the time to interrogate Yu Tongxi. The evidence was conclusive and he was sentenced to manslaughter by mistake and sentenced to twenty years in prison.
As for Yiniang, although she is not guilty, everyone knows that the culprit of the trouble between Yu and Du's family is because of her. A widow has been dating a married man for ten years, and her reputation has been completely ruined. The surrounding neighbors have never been together.
If he didn't talk to her, he would criticize her a lot. Her son was not around, and within a few years, she died in depression.
Although she got the Yu family's shop, she still had forty taels of interest waiting for her to pay back. In the end, she had no choice but to sell the shop. After paying off the debt, she bought a small courtyard with the remaining money. Because it was too hard to live in prison.
After a long time, she gave birth prematurely soon after she was born, and the baby was born stillborn.
As for Du Ya, he returned to the Du family long after the two of them were imprisoned. I heard that Yi Niang asked him to change his surname to Yu many times, but he refused to agree. He stayed as a child of the Du family for the rest of his life and provided for the Du family until they died.
Knowing that Yiniang was not doing well, Chu Yunli was satisfied. After all, she was also a miserable person. Yu Tongxi kept saying he admired her, but in fact, he only talked about it. Yiniang worked hard,
His reputation is gone, his children are gone, and he lives a lonely life.
Chu Yunli originally wanted to visit Xizi, but after going there, she learned that Xizi had been sent to be a carpenter apprentice, so she didn't ask any more questions.
In early April, the weather was fine, and the Chen family's shop and yard were decorated with lights and colorful decorations, making the scene look festive.
Chen Jiqing took back his bride with a smile on his face, and after three bows and nine kowtows, he became the son-in-law of Anjia Restaurant.
Shortly thereafter, he bought the shop opposite An's house and used it as an embroidery workshop. Later, the business grew bigger and bigger, spreading to all parts of Fuzhou City.
Everyone said that the first half of Chen Dong's life was rough, but in the second half of his life, the business was prosperous, the husband and wife were harmonious, and they had children. However, it was a pity that both parents were gone.
But Chen Jiqing himself didn't realize that there was an aunt beside him who loved him very much. She usually didn't show it, but she stood not far from him. You could see her when you turned around. Whenever he needed her, she would appear.
Occasionally, he would think about how much blessing he had accumulated to be able to have such an aunt to support him.
