A lucky wife born again from a farm family
Chapter 101 Punishment
As soon as the word "my officer" came out, all the villagers surrounding the Gu family dispersed in shock and turned to look at the people on the five tall horses.
"Hey, these are all wearing official uniforms, they are really officials." The villagers whispered while keeping backing away, for fear of bumping into the official.
When Mr. Lu heard this, he was also surprised when he saw the old man on the maroon horse. However, he knew only a few county government officials and did not know who the old man was. He hurriedly stepped forward, raised his hands and asked, "My surname is Lu. Is it Mr. Lu?" A relative of the county magistrate. May I ask this worthy brother, where is he an official? What position does he hold?"
On the horse behind the old man, a middle-aged man wearing official uniform and hanging a sword on his waist shouted angrily: "How dare you, our county captain, you, a common man, can call you a brother?"
Then he asked Mr. Lu: "Who are the relatives of the county magistrate? We have never heard that the county magistrate has any relatives in Dafeng Village. Are you pretending to be an official relative?"
The middle-aged man immediately frowned and said angrily: "You dare to pretend to be a relative of an official. This is a serious crime. Come on, take this old guy and take him to the county government for questioning."
Jiang Xianwei stopped the middle-aged man, looked at Mr. Lu and said, "I have remembered that Zou Xiancheng does have a relative in the countryside, but they are not serious relatives, they are just the natal family of a concubine."
Then he asked Mr. Lu: "Are you that concubine's father?"
Mr. Lu looked ashamed and angry, but he had to admit it and replied: "Yes."
As soon as these words came out, the people on the four horses behind Lieutenant Jiang all burst into laughter: "Haha, it turns out this is the concubine's natal family. Does this concubine also have a natal family? As far as I know, all the aunts of Zou County Cheng are maids. By birth, we signed a death contract, and we are all members of Zou County Cheng's family in life and death. Where did he come from his natal family? Where did Zou County Cheng come from this family?"
The voices of the four of them were as loud as Jiang Xianwei's, and everyone heard what they said. The villagers began to whisper, and one of the older ones said to the younger ones: "These officials are right. Lu Meihua was indeed a maid of the county prime minister's family before, and later she became pregnant and gave birth to a son. This is how I became an aunt."
"Lu Meihua, she is called Lian'er now. The county magistrate personally gave her the name..."
The villagers were talking a lot. Mr. Lu's face turned red when he heard this, but the other party was the county captain. Not to mention that he couldn't afford to offend him, even the county magistrate didn't dare to offend him easily.
This county captain, like the county magistrate, is an eighth-grade assistant officer.
The county magistrate is responsible for the county's household registration files, warehouses, grain, and taxation.
The county lieutenant is the commander of the army, in charge of the county's troops and three squads of government officials, and is responsible for arrests and public security.
As for the garrison, there are none in the county. Only the military camps and garrison are built on the outskirts of Fucheng.
Jiang County Lieutenant was born in the army and was in charge of the county's soldiers. He had always been a fierce man, and the Lu family did not dare to offend him.
When Shang Xiucai heard Jiang County Lieutenant's loud voice, he came out to greet him and bowed to Jiang County Lieutenant: "My son-in-law pays homage to my father-in-law."
When Jiang County Lieutenant saw Shang Xiucai coming out, he immediately dismounted his horse, gave him a weak hand, and asked, "Xian son-in-law, did the Lu family suffer for you?"
If the Lu family dared to bully his son-in-law, Jiang Dahu would definitely tear down the Lu family and then break down the door of the Cheng family in Zouxian County.
Lieutenant Jiang County was very satisfied with Shang Xiucai as his son-in-law.
He and Shang Xiucai's father were old friends. Later, after his daughter Xue Niang married Shang Xiucai, she was not pregnant for ten years. Shang Xiucai did not marry a child. He comforted Xue Niang and said that the issue of the heir was not her fault alone and he was also responsible.
If the couple can have a baby in this life, they will. If they can't, there is no need to force it. If Xue Niang wants a child, she can go to the Shang family or the Jiang family to adopt one.
When Jiang County Lieutenant heard this, he was extremely moved. He was originally satisfied with his son-in-law and thought he was good at studying and knowledgeable. From then on, he became even more satisfied and wished he could be treated as his own son.
So as soon as he received the message from Lao Luo and learned about the relationship between the Lu family and Zou Xiancheng, he knew that the Lu family would be difficult to deal with, so he personally came with his troops.
At this moment, several people knew that this scholar was the one they had heard about, the weird-tempered scholar who won the auspicious lantern of wealth in the Fugui Building.
And he is also the son-in-law of the county captain.
This is really...
The third grandfather's hands were shaking with excitement. He hurriedly led several family members to Jiang County Captain, and saluted Jiang County Captain: "The common people bow to the County Captain."
Lieutenant Jiang County waved his hand: "Get up, if you have anything to offer me, who is the benefactor who saved my granddaughter? Come out and show me."
Shang Xiucai pointed at Gu Jinli and said with a smile, "It's this little benefactor."
Gu Jinli stood up and said to Jiang County Lieutenant: "I don't dare to call you a benefactor. I just passed by and helped a small favor."
When County Lieutenant Jiang heard this, he was originally worried that the family would ask for repayment, but now he was relieved: "You are doing a lot of work. Yuanyuan is the apple of our Jiang family and Shang family. You saved Yuan Yuan, then He just saved our Jiang and Shang families."
Lieutenant Jiang County was a protector. He took the opportunity to shout to the villagers present: "Listen to me, this Gu family is my savior. Anyone who dares to cause trouble to her family, I will not let him go!"
The villagers had long been shocked by the fact that Gu Jinli saved the granddaughter of the county captain. When they heard this again, they were so frightened that they quickly said: "No, I don't dare to bully...they are all villagers."
Jiang Xianwei snorted coldly: "It's best to remember what you said today."
While talking, the group of people who were lagging behind arrived.
There were actually fifty soldiers with guns and knives and quivers on their backs!
When the villagers saw these soldiers, they shrank in fear and did not dare to raise their heads.
Mr. Lu was so frightened that he almost fainted. Jiang County Lieutenant came with the county soldiers. His third son must be taken to the county this time.
Now he just hopes that his youngest daughter can be more capable and persuade Zou County Cheng to help the Lu family, otherwise the Lu family may be ruined.
When Lieutenant Jiang County saw the troops arriving, he pointed to the Gu family's yard and said, "Go and take the prisoners inside to the county."
"Yes!" the soldiers responded, rushed into the Gu family's yard, and escorted Lu Laosan and the others out of the yard.
Lu Laosan had long been frightened. Only He Dacai and a few gangsters were still crying: "It's wrong, it's wrong, sir, it's all what the Lu family asked us to do. We were just thugs in exchange for a few coins..."
The soldiers ignored them and escorted them away.
As for Mr. Lu, Lieutenant Jiang County did not let him go, and the charge he gave him was reasonable: "You dare to lead your clan members to obstruct the officials from handling the case. This is a serious crime, and I will arrest him."
The other soldiers rushed up and tied up Mr. Lu and more than thirty other Lu family members.
These thirty-odd Lu family members are all men of the Lu family. Such an arrest would be a disaster for the Lu family.
The women of the Lu family cried and begged for mercy, but after a few clicks and the soldiers drew their sabers, they were all too frightened to speak.
Lieutenant Jiang County said to the third grandfather: "This matter needs to be brought to court. You and your family will send a few men to follow us to the county to resolve this matter."
Third Grandpa discussed with Mr. Qin for a while and decided that Third Grandpa would take Gu Dashan, Gu Damu, and Luo's father to the county, while the others stayed at home to wait for news.
Jiangxian Lieutenant was afraid that the Lu family would cause trouble for the Gu family again, so he left ten soldiers to guard Dafeng Village before escorting Lu Laosan and the others away.
Shang Xiucai was worried about his wife and daughter at home, so he did not follow him to the county but returned home. However, he said that he would come back tomorrow and that if anything happened to the Gu family, they could ask him for help.
The ten soldiers did not live at the end of the village, but were arranged by the village chief He to live in the village chief's house.
Gu Jinli thought this matter would last for a long time, but within two days, Lu Laosan was sentenced.
