Magistrate Sun could not refuse and had to order someone to summon Sun Bao.
When Sun Bao heard what the official said, he had a bad premonition and wanted to refuse on the grounds that he was not feeling well.
Unexpectedly, the official's attitude was firm.
He couldn't refuse and had no choice but to go.
In court.
Sun Hutu asked:
"Sun Bao, have you ever sent someone to the West Hutong courtyard?"
Sun Bao's heart tightened. Is this what happened?
He shook his head and denied the speculation.
His father always loved him and would never do anything to him.
This is just a formality.
Sun Bao said casually:
"No."
Commander Zhao looked at Sun Bao with such fierce aura that the thirteen or fourteen year old boy was frightened.
Sun Bao composed himself and did not let himself collapse to the ground.
Commander Zhao withdrew his gaze and looked at Gao Xianwei.
County Lieutenant Gao noticed Commander Zhao's gaze and said:
"Xiaoguan and his subordinates all know who the boy was who led the way to report the crime."
At this time, Liu San also said:
"This person is the boy next to Second Young Master Sun."
One sentence instantly changed the atmosphere in the courtroom.
Sun Hutu glanced at Commander Zhao and saw him drinking tea and looking somewhere in the lobby.
Following his gaze, Sun Hutu seemed to realize that it was his son.
Sun Hutu's heart tightened.
He believed that Sun Bao, the child, could not inherit the family business.
The days to come will not be as hard as the eldest son.
So he doted on him mostly.
Thinking of Sun Baosu's daily behavior, he guessed that this child might be involved in what happened today.
Sun Hutu then thought about his official career.
He made a decision in his heart and said:
"Come here, capture the servants around Sun Bao and let everyone identify them."
Sun Bao looked at his father who was sitting high in surprise.
I saw that he had a sullen face, stiff and cold, without his usual gentleness.
Sun Baosheng had the idea of escape from here.
However, there were people everywhere in the hall and he could not escape.
After a while, the two boys beside Sun Bao were escorted up.
After Wang Sanshun, Li Shi and Gao Xianwei all confessed to the same boy at the same time, they confirmed that Sun Bao ordered the boy to murder the beggar.
Sun Bao didn't want to admit it.
However, in the face of the facts, under Sun Hutu's severe pressure, Sun Bao's servant took the initiative to bear the responsibility:
"The Mu family girl caused my young master to be beaten.
The slave couldn't stand it, so he took this step when he saw her family helping beggars.
I poisoned the beggars in the small courtyard, but I didn’t expect that I only poisoned four people.”
Sun Hutu asked:
"Then why is it the steward of the Wei family in Gao County who buys the medicine?"
The boy explained:
"The steward of the Wei family in Gao County is the servant's cousin, and the servant's family was given a dowry by Aunt Gao."
This explanation seems to make everything clear.
Commander Zhao stopped interfering and only waited for Magistrate Sun to conclude the case.
After the case was concluded, it was already evening.
Commander Zhao rejected Sun Hutu's kindness and returned to Lujiacun.
Mu family.
At this time, the Mu family was waiting for Commander Zhao to come back for the New Year's Eve dinner.
The moment the door rang, everyone looked outside.
Nan Yi walked into the courtyard and saw Commander Zhao climbing over the wall and entering.
Nan Yi curled her lips and said angrily:
"Wouldn't you have told me earlier that you were overcoming the firewall?"
Commander Zhao said:
"I thought it was cold and you wouldn't open the door so quickly, so I climbed over the wall and went in to save you from coming out."
Nan Yi: “…”
This statement sounds like a consideration for others, well, don't think about her opening the door next time!
The two entered the room, and Mu Nuan enthusiastically pulled Commander Zhao to sit down.
"Mom has prepared hot pot today. Uncle Zhao, thank you for your hard work. Eat more later."
Commander Zhao felt very happy after hearing this.
Just as he was about to take his seat, his seat was taken by Nan Yi.
"You go over there and get warm."
Nan Yi pointed to the seat by the window.
Commander Zhao thought that since he was a man, there was nothing wrong with him sitting by the window, so he went to the window, but Meier usurped his seat.
"Uncle Zhao, this seat is a bit cold. You sit in the back."
Commander Zhao: "..."
This family has enough!
The hot pot is rich in flavor, and it is best and fastest for him to eat standing up!
Finally, Commander Zhao was placed next to Liang Heng.
Everyone sat around the table and began to enjoy the hot pot feast.
Mu Nuan poured warm wine for the adults and juice for the children.
Afterwards, Mrs. Mu started to say blessings.
Mu held up his wine glass and said:
"I wish everyone good health and all the best next year."
"I wish you a prosperous future, reaffirm your ambitions, cherish your time and work diligently, and look forward to the light of the sun and the moon."
Hearing the words of the emperor's master, everyone was stunned.
In the blink of an eye, Mu Nuan said:
"The Emperor's words are so philosophical, I will recite a poem here to send blessings to everyone!
Fortunes and fragrances gather together and treasures gather, everything is prosperous and prosperous, I wear a red robe and walk around the world, I master the world step by step, the grains are harvested and the spring willows are welcomed, and the house is full of gold and jade, talking about a good year."
Immediately afterwards, Liang Heng said:
"Then I will send my blessings starting with a number.
Smooth sailing, two dragons soaring, three sheep prospering, peace all year round, five blessings coming, six or six fortunes, seven stars shining high, wealth coming from all directions, ninety-nine and one heart, everything is perfect."
Meier said sheepishly:
"I'm not as talented as the girl, nor as smart as the Prince of Xi Liang. I can only learn from Madam..."
Sounds of blessings are passed around the Mu family to wash away the gloom.
After dinner, it’s time to watch the New Year’s Eve.
Mu Nuan's children were playing the cards Mu taught them.
The adults were talking about the murder of a beggar.
Time comes quietly...
The sound of firecrackers bid farewell to the old and welcomes the new.
The joy and sorrow of the Mu family fell silent in the dark night after eating dumplings.
The next day, the new year begins.
Mu Nuan and others paid New Year's greetings to Mu and the others.
After breakfast, everyone had nothing to do.
Mu Nuan's four children were playing cards, and Mu's adults were discussing moving matters.
One night later, the villagers wanted to know how the Mu family was doing, so they came to the Mu family in groups to pay New Year greetings.
It was not easy to refuse guests during the New Year, so Nan Yi invited them into the living room.
The villagers saw that Mu and Mu Nuan were fine.
They saw Commander Zhao sitting not far away safe and sound, playing a game they couldn't understand.
They knew that this person was not simple, and neither was the Mu family!
At this time, they thought of their attitude yesterday.
Shy-skinned people will sit for a while and then leave.
The thick-skinned ones just ate some snacks and left.
But the young children in the village don't know what the adults are thinking.
They played with Mu Nuan for a long time before leaving.
After seeing off the guests, Mu looked at Mu Nuan and the others and said:
"I have something to tell you now."
Mu Nuan asked: "Mom, do you want to give me some subsidies?"
She had bad luck playing cards today, winning less and losing more.
Mu Shi patted Mu Nuan on the back of the head:
"I'm willing to admit defeat. I don't have money to gamble with you."
The chubby boy covered the back of his head with his hands, and Mu Nuan looked at Mu with aggrieved eyes.
Mu pretended not to see it and looked away:
"There is a mixed bag of good and bad in this village, and it is not good for the four of you to learn from me. I have decided to move."
Mu Nuan asked: "Where are we moving to?"
Actually, it’s not the villagers’ fault whether she learns or not. The most important thing is that she doesn’t learn.
However, her mother wanted to find a reason to comfort herself, and she could not refuse her mother's kindness.
