In the afternoon, at the gate of Lin'an County.
Sister-in-law Ji leaned against the city wall weakly. It had been almost three days since she came here. She had picked some wild fruits in the surrounding woods to eat. Now her stomach was growling with hunger, but she really didn't have the strength to get up.
Looking at the unoccupied road, Sister-in-law Ji felt uncomfortable. Judging from the situation, the official refused to let her in. Could it be that she was really going to starve to death here?
She didn't starve to death on the way to escape famine, but starved to death at the gate of Lin'an County. Sister-in-law Ji was unwilling to accept it no matter what she thought. This unwillingness made her extremely resentful.
At this time, another family was at the city gate begging the official to let them in. After seeing the official scolding him unceremoniously, the head of the family actually took out a piece of silver wrapped in cloth from his arms, counted five taels of silver and handed it to the officers and soldiers.
.
The officers and soldiers clicked the money and opened half of the door after confirming that it was correct. Sister-in-law Ji got the strength from nowhere, stood up and rushed over.
Sister-in-law Ji's potential was huge in critical moments. The officers and soldiers didn't even react when they saw a figure rushing into the city gate.
"A woman got in without paying!" After reacting, the officer and soldier who opened the door shouted, with anger in his eyes.
Then let the person who paid the money go in quickly, and then close the door to prevent other people from trying to fish in troubled waters.
The rest of the officers and soldiers also woke up from a dream and hurriedly went to arrest Sister-in-law Ji.
Sister-in-law Ji only showed her huge potential at the critical moment. In fact, she had not eaten for a long time, so how could she have any strength? She fell to the ground exhausted after not running for long.
Seeing the officers and soldiers chasing a ragged woman, the people around them became interested in watching the excitement. They gathered around the roadside and it was very lively.
Brother Ji, who was out to buy things for the wedding, heard the noise on the street and followed the boss who was out to watch the excitement and took a look.
"What a sin. Now the people have no food to eat, and the court is still worried about collecting money from the city! Let me tell you, how can these refugees who have fled famine have any money?"
The boss was cursing.
Brother Ji frowned and stared at the woman lying on the ground.
The clothes this woman is wearing... are they so similar to the ones Sister Ji wore when she ran away?
Brother Ji's heart skipped a beat. The clothes did look like purple, but they were a lot dirtier than they were then, but the original color could still be vaguely seen.
While he was thinking wildly, he saw the woman raising her face, looking back in horror at the officers and soldiers who were about to chase her, looking around with fear, and then looking at him.
Just one glance made Brother Ji's heart feel like it was falling into an ice cave - this was Sister Ji.
There was no way he could admit his mistake.
Although she is much thinner than she was then, her original appearance can still be seen.
"My husband—"
Sister-in-law Ji looked at her in despair, thinking that she was going to jail soon, but she was hit by this ecstatic scene.
Look what she saw? Boss Ji!
Sister-in-law Ji showed her amazing potential again, almost crawling to the side of Boss Ji, feeling that her helpless heart could finally be supported.
But she rushed forward and wanted to hug Boss Ji, but Boss Ji took a step back and looked at her indifferently.
Sister-in-law Ji has never seen Brother Ji's expression like this before, as if she was looking at a stranger.
But they were originally a close couple, weren't they? It was just that she wanted to live and was blinded by lard. But after all, she gave birth to two sons for him.
Sister-in-law Ji felt aggrieved and said, "Liang Ping, I am Xiufen! Don't you recognize me?"
As soon as she finished speaking, the officers and soldiers rudely stepped forward to grab her, and one officer kicked her unceremoniously.
"You bitch, I told you not to come in without money! You actually dare to break in and disrupt the court's handling of the case. I will send you to jail now."
As soon as she heard about the big prison, Sister-in-law Ji immediately panicked. She pointed at Boss Ji as if grasping a life-saving straw:
"Master Guan, I was wrong, I was just too impatient. That was my husband-in-law. My husband-in-law has money. Can you please make up for it? Master Guan, please do your best!"
This officer and soldier was originally full of bad luck. When he heard what she said, he looked at Boss Ji. Seeing that Boss Ji was strong and well-dressed, he sneered:
"Crazy bitch, if you catch someone and just call them your husband, right? You don't even look at your appearance. They are full of lies. I will send you to jail right now."
As he said this, he was about to drag Sister-in-law Ji away.
Sister-in-law Ji looked at Boss Ji and found that Boss Ji was watching all this indifferently without saying a word.
Sister-in-law Ji suddenly panicked and sat down on the ground, crying to Mrs. Ji:
"Ji Liangping, I gave you two sons! How can you be so cruel! What would Shikang and Shian think if they knew you treated their mother like this? Why are you so cruel?"
As soon as these words came out, Boss Ji's eyes showed resentment, but after all, his two sons were involved, and he didn't want them to find out that his own mother had been killed by him, and he only had one tael of silver anyway.
Immediately he took out a tael of silver from his bag and handed it to the official.
The official was surprised.
I bet these two people really know each other, they are actually husband and wife, and they even have a son!
Then why does the man look so decent and the wife looks so miserable?
But this woman has no value. Even if she goes to jail, it will be a waste of time and energy. Now that they have received the money, these officers and soldiers no longer want to argue with her.
One of the officers and soldiers collected the money. When he saw Boss Ji's face, he thought it looked familiar. After thinking about it carefully, he recalled it.
Isn't this the eldest brother of the clever Ji family brother in Niutou Village? He is the officer and soldier who opened the small gate for Niutou Village. He was immediately stunned:
"Brother, why is your mother-in-law a refugee?"
Boss Ji also recognized him and said with a wry smile: "I abandoned my whole family and ran away with a wild man on the way to escape, and now I'm back. She is the baby's mother after all, so I can't just die without saving him."
As soon as these words came out, everyone showed sympathy, and finally understood why Boss Ji looked respectable, while this woman looked so miserable.
Turns out it was his own fault!
"I also said that the man looks very impressive and promising, but this woman looks like a skinny monkey. It turns out that she comes from a family that does not follow the rules of women!"
"That's right! She has the nerve to let others save her. It's because this brother has feelings and righteousness. This is only one tael of silver, which is not a small amount."
"If it were me, let alone one tael of silver, even ten cents would not do."
"..."
The people were cursing and cursing, and Sister-in-law Ji covered her face in shame, wishing she could find a crack in the ground to crawl in.
Seeing this, the officer and soldier patted Brother Ji on the shoulder sympathetically, and went back with the other officers and soldiers. After all, the city gate had to continue to be guarded.
Brother Ji came here happily to buy things, but when he met Sister Ji, he was really not in the mood to continue buying things, so he turned around and left.
Seeing this, Sister-in-law Ji became anxious and quickly followed, "Master, wait for me!"
