Chapter 42 His mood is up and down
The two of them also saw Lin Xiaoman. Lu Jin nodded slightly towards her reservedly, while Qing Shu waved his hands enthusiastically, and was still talking to Lu Jin. He was not surprised to see her here.
She.
Looking at the several official officers with swords on their waists following them, it turned out that her guess was correct. Lu Jin was the newly appointed magistrate of Qingping County.
He became the seventh-grade county magistrate at a young age. It is impossible to say which young man from a big family came to gain experience. It is no wonder that the first time a new official takes office, he dares to burn the head of the prefect.
I just don’t know if the arrival of such a arrogant, arrogant little magistrate in Qingping County, who doesn’t care about the world, is a blessing to the people.
Lin Xiaoman also responded with a slight nod to Lu Jin and Qing Shu.
When everyone saw that Lin Daqiang was back, they all told him how disgusting these three people were.
There were so many people talking, Lin Daqiang couldn't hear clearly after listening for a long time. He pointed at someone and said, "Dongzi, tell me!"
Lin Dong was a young man under twenty years old and a well-known smart young man in the village. When the patriarch called his name, he stepped forward and explained the cause and effect. After hearing this, Lin Daqiang raised his leg and kicked Li Tiezhu hard on the ground.
A few kicks, "The scoundrels from Liujiazhuang dare to ruin the reputation of our Hedong Village girls. I will go to your village owner tomorrow and have a good talk."
After kicking the man and thinking of the group of people following behind him, Lin Daqiang turned around with a smile on his face and said: "Sir, I kicked him because I was in a hurry. I will have them sent back to Liujiazhuang."
”
Lu Jin indifferently glanced at Li Tiezhu and the others who were on the ground like dead dogs, "Is Patriarch Lin going to let these people off easily?"
Lin Daqiang was stunned, "What else can I do if I don't let go?"
Lu Jin sneered coldly, "These people are very abominable. If you don't punish them severely, they won't be enough to scare the world. They will only make people imitate them. As long as I live, I will not condone the arrogance of such villains!"
When Li Tiezhu and the other two heard this, they were so frightened that they trembled like chaff and murmured: "I don't dare anymore! I don't dare anymore!"
Sister-in-law Cheng even shouted: "Sir, I was deceived by Li Tiezhu and his wife, and I was wrongly accused."
Qingshu said to the official behind him: "If you let a shrew yell, aren't you afraid of dirtying your ears?"
Several officials came forward and pulled out some pieces of cloth and some ropes from nowhere, blocked Sister-in-law Cheng's mouth, and tied her up with ropes.
Li Tiezhu, mother and son regretted that they should not have come this time, crying and shouting that they would never dare again, but the official ignored them and tied them up tightly, and stuffed a piece of meat into their mouths that smelled of sweat and muffin.
cloth.
Compared to Sister-in-law Cheng, the ropes on their bodies were tied stronger, and they were all cut into their flesh.
When Lin Daqiang saw this, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed, "Thank you, Mr. Qingtian, for making the decision for me!"
Behind them, a group of people from Hedong Village knelt down and shouted, "Thank you, Mr. Qingtian, for making the decision for the people!"
Lin Xiaoman saw that people around him were kneeling, and when they were kneeling together, he heard Lu Jin say: "This is not a courtroom, you don't need to perform this ceremony, please get up!"
Everyone in front stood up one after another, but Lin Xiaoman took advantage of the situation and did not kneel down.
Grandma Xiangxing came in front of Li Tiezhu and her son, slapped Sister-in-law Zhao several times, and hit Sister-in-law Zhao's mouth with blood with her big hand like a cattail fan, and kicked Li Tiezhu a few times, "I want you to ruin my granddaughter's reputation.
You want to come to our house to get a bargain, bah! Go to jail!"
Seeing that the two men were so frightened that their faces turned pale, they spat in their faces twice more, and then they heard an officer shout: "Lynching is not allowed!"
"Hey, I'm so angry, I don't dare anymore! I don't dare anymore!" She said she didn't dare, and then she accidentally rubbed Sister-in-law Zhao's leg with her feet, which made Sister-in-law Zhao's mouth hurt.
There was a cry of pain. Grandma Xiangxing returned to the yard with proud little steps.
These officials were also obedient and knew that their masters were partial, so they all pretended not to see it.
The officer tied the three of them to a big tree in the village and waited until they returned to take them back to the county government office. They were not afraid that the three of them would dare to untie the rope and run away. If they really dared to run away, they would be considered fugitives with a higher crime.
Lin Daqiang found a few eloquent old farmers in the village and asked them to take Lu Jin and his party to inspect the land in the village. He also asked them to go to Liujiazhuang to ask the owner of Liujiazhuang for an explanation.
Before parting, Lin Xiaoman saw that Lu Jin seemed to say a word silently to him with his lips, but he really didn't see it clearly, and he waited for Lu Jin to say it again with a confused look on his face.
Lu Jin pursed his lips helplessly and wanted to continue talking. Someone was talking to him next to him. When he looked up again, Lin Xiaoman had turned around and started chatting with Shen Guihua.
Lu Jin's joy at being able to eat Lin Xiaoman's delicious food suddenly deteriorated. She wanted to poke a hole in Lin Xiaoman's back. He just told her that he wanted to eat fish, so she had to pretend to watch.
Don’t understand?
Ouch, his mood is up and down! Sure enough, the woman's mouth is so deceptive, she said she wanted to treat him to delicious food, but she just ignored him for a few days?
When he was led to inspect the fields, Lu Jin's face didn't even look good. Others just thought that he was a young adult from the capital who was still angry about Li Tiezhu's family. They were all afraid that if he said something wrong, he would get into trouble.
I dare not speak.
After the others walked out for a while, Lin Daqiang returned and found Lin Xiaoman who was talking to Shen Guihua and her daughter. He asked with a mysterious face: "Xiaoman, do you guess who this Mr. Lu is?"
"The newly appointed magistrate of Qingping County?"
"Ah? You know?" Lin Daqiang exhaled, "It's good to know. It just so happens that you didn't go to the city today. Mr. Lu and his party are going to have dinner in the village at noon, and they want to eat your cooking. I'll let you know later.
Dawu comes over to help you. Tell him what you want and let him buy it. Your family is building a house right now, so let’s do it at my house. Dawu, come here. You will listen to Xiaoman’s arrangements today. Whatever she asks you to buy, you can
Just buy whatever you want."
"Okay, Xiaoman, I will obey your orders today."
Lin Dawu is Lin Youwang's youngest son and Lin Daqiang's younger brother. He is usually left to do most of the errands at home or within the clan.
Lin Xiaoman smiled at Lin Dawu, "Okay, Uncle Dawu, you first go and ask who has sheep to sell, buy one, and prepare a few chickens, and see who has some vegetables. I want more. Go home and prepare something and then go over”
Thinking back to the shape of Lu Jin’s lips just now, he said they looked like fish. Could it be that he wanted to eat fish for lunch?
Lin Xiaoman asked Lin Dawu to find someone to net some fish from the river.
Lin Dawu wrote down the things and went to buy them. Lin Daqiang confessed a few words to Lin Xiaoman and then went to chase Lu Jin and his party.
Lin Xiaoman then smiled at Shen Guihua and her daughter and said, "I just want to teach Aunt Guihua and Xiang Xing how to cook. Let's make this at noon. Aunt Guihua and Xiang Xing packed up and went directly to the patriarch's house. I also have to go back and prepare some things. ."
"Okay, I'll pack up and go over."
Grandma Xiangxing asked from the side: "Xiaoman, can I go over and help too?"
Shen Guihua said to her: "Mom, do you want to teach the second child after you have learned it?"
"A dog bites Lu Dongbin, but he doesn't know a good heart! I'm just worried that you guys will be busy, so why do you still miss me so much?"
