Farming: I dressed up as a widow and beat my parents-in-law violently

This person is none other than Deng Qiuzhi's servant, Xin Bao.

"What's going on? Get up quickly. What happened to your master?"

Yan Xia quickly pulled up Xin Bao who was kneeling on the ground. He saw that his eyes were red and swollen, like two big walnuts. His clothes had a big cut and were stained with mud. He must have had a dispute with someone or fallen. .

"The master was framed by Wang and Chen's mother and daughter, and was imprisoned by officials!!"

Although Xin Bao stood up, his legs were weak and his voice was trembling.

It seemed like I was going to cry the next second.

"What? Being framed? Come into the shop and tell us in detail."

Yan Xia was frightened by the news.

Although Deng Qiuzhi only had a cooperative relationship with her, she had already treated Deng Qiuzhi as a good friend after getting along with him many times.

It was learned that he had been framed and taken to jail.

She wanted to grab Xin Bao's collar and ask him clearly, but the door was full of customers and people were still coming and going on the street.

She could only hold back her curiosity and took Xinbao to the backyard.

Their buttocks just touched the stone bench.

Xin Bao started talking.

"Two days ago, there was a wealthy businessman from out of town who wanted to join Shopkeeper Yan's pastry shop. He asked his master to go to Qingmanyuan for dinner. As soon as the money came to deliver the goods last night, the master helped move the pastries and went to the banquet. The weather has been too bad recently. It was hot, and the flower cakes and peach cakes were not sold very well. The owner said that he would close the shop one hour later every day. After I finished my meal, I continued to guard the shop. When it was about to close, a strange woman wrapped up the remaining flowers. Pancakes, three packs in total..."

Yan Xia interrupted Xin Bao.

"Strange woman? What's so strange about her?"

"Because she looked around as soon as she entered the shop. The shop is so big. She even wanted to take a look in the backyard, but I stopped her. She also asked me where the master was. I thought he was a good friend of the master, so I told her The master went to a banquet, and she asked me three or four times where he was having dinner. I thought she had something urgent to see the master, so I said he was in Qingmanyuan. Unexpectedly, she paid and left. Flower cakes were sold. After that, my shop was naturally closed, but I waited and waited, but the master hadn’t come back yet. When the time came, there were no people on the street. The master had never come back so late. Before he left, he specifically told me that he Will be back before the end of Xu Shi."

The more Xin Bao spoke, the more excited he became.

Yan Xia quickly poured him a cup of iced herbal tea to calm him down.

She brewed the herbal tea herself and added some soothing herbs. As expected, Xinbao took a few sips and her tone became much calmer.

He continued.

"So I was afraid that something might happen to my master, so I hurried to Qingmanyuan to pick him up. Unexpectedly, I went there and found that the restaurant was closed. There were no guest rooms in Qingmanyuan, so I could only eat. Master couldn't rest there, so I I knocked on the door and the shopkeeper came to open the door. He told me that in the middle of the day, a guest was taken away by the police. It was the owner. The owner of the restaurant said that someone went to the county government to report the owner, saying that he poisoned the flower cake! Shopkeeper Yan, how can the flower cake be poisonous! It can’t be poisonous. Today, a piece of the flower cake fell on the ground, and the master couldn’t bear to throw it away. He even picked it up and ate it. If it were poisonous, how could the master still go to the banquet with his life!"

"So I rushed to the county government office again, but the official stopped me and refused to let me in. I kept squatting at the door until I saw Wang Shufang's family coming out of the county government office. I hid beside the stone lion and saw them and the official. The Lord spoke and stuffed the official with two taels of silver. Before leaving, he asked the official to teach the master a lesson. Isn't it obvious that they are here to frame the master! One of the four people came to buy flower cakes last night. That woman, she is standing next to Wang Shufang's brother, she should be his newly married daughter-in-law. This is slander! Shopkeeper Yan, I have no choice. I can't get into the county government office, so I asked Qian to bring me to you before dawn. Okay, Shopkeeper Yan, do you know whether the flower cake is poisonous or not? I beg you to save my master!"

Xin Bao's face turned pale. After he finished speaking, his hand holding the cup tightened, causing ripples in the herbal tea in the cup with his shaking right hand.

"The flower cakes cannot be poisonous. Also, since Wang Shufang and the other two falsely accused the flower cakes of being poisonous, why did they show up at the county government office unharmed? As far as I know, there are only four people in her family. Who was the poisoned person?"

Yan Xia was a little confused.

Since it was a frame-up, it had to be really poisoned.

Otherwise, where would the evidence come from?

Is it possible that it is just a matter of words? Then any doctor can check to see if the flower cake is poisonous.

The method was too low-level, and he had to risk being sued by Deng Qiuzhi.

"Wang Shufang's younger brother Wang Guangyao is hooking up with one of the officials. They should be familiar with each other."

"No wonder!" Yan Xia suddenly realized.

I have long heard that the magistrate of Jiangnan County is a corrupt official and the leader is a bad person. How can the minions below be any better? It is probably Wang Guangyao who bribed the official.

Let him take Deng Qiuzhi into prison without telling the county magistrate.

The magistrate is so busy, how can he care about such a trivial matter.

"Don't be afraid. Brother Deng is fine. No matter how bold the officials are, they won't dare to let people die in prison for no reason. I guess they must have an agenda. You can stay at my house to sleep tonight, and we will go there early tomorrow morning." When we set off, I will definitely rescue Brother Deng from prison."

Yan Xia's voice was like the warm sun in winter or the clear spring in summer, soothing Xin Bao's frightened and impatient heart.

After the shop closes.

Yan Xia returned to the house with her children and servants and Xin Bao.

After dinner, digestion and shower, I went to bed early.

At Yinshi, a carriage came out of the front door of Yan Mansion.

Because it was too early, the city gates were not opened.

Yan Xia said hello to the guard and was able to go out.

Running all the way, Yan Xia did not take the official road in order to reach Jiangnan County as soon as possible. The first half of the journey was through small roads, which made her stomach feel sour. She could only endure it and wait until there was no more small roads to go before returning. On the road.

Along the way, the carriage almost never stopped except for urination and defecation.

Halfway there, I met Yuan Shan who was returning from Jiangnan County.

He met Qian Yi's carriage yesterday, and naturally knew that Deng Qiuzhi was in jail, so Deng Qiuzhi's shop was closed, so he temporarily placed the pastries in Yan Xia's house.

Not yet.

Yan Xia's carriage entered the city gate of Jiangnan County. Because the queue was too long, Yan Xia used the money trick.

Only then did he successfully jump in line.

"Xinbao, go to the shop and sell pastries. I will ask my servants to bring you the pastries later. The ice powder and other items delivered the night before yesterday cannot be eaten even if they are chilled. Just throw them away. The pastries are still there. It can be sold. The shop was not open yesterday and this morning, so the customers are probably waiting impatiently, so hurry up and open the door."

Yan Xia parked the carriage outside Deng Qiuzhi's shop.

Said.

"Shopkeeper Yan, what kind of pastries are you selling now? The master is in doubt. Let's save the master first."
