A peasant girl traveled through time and space, and she became prosperous

Mother Wei and the housekeeper were both terrified. They answered whatever the county magistrate asked. After a round of questioning, they found that Mr. Wang was innocent.

After letting out a long sigh, the county magistrate's expression relaxed a little, and Mr. Wang was particularly proud, even a little smug.

"They are talking nonsense. There is no evidence. Let them show us the marriage certificate and the list of betrothal gifts."

Mr. Liu expressed his dissatisfaction and insisted on having solid evidence.

He dared to say this because Wen Meijiu had promised him in advance that as long as he did as she said, he would not go wrong.

At first, Mr. Liu did not dare to believe what a little girl said. But when he knew that the young master Wang behind her was no simple man, and that the previous things had been accomplished, his trust in Wen Meijiu increased dramatically.

"Mr. Liu, you are so confused, didn't we already agree on this?

Your daughter has already married, why are you still regretting it?"

Mother Wei was also afraid that she would be implicated, so she quickly rebuked Mr. Liu and tried to clear herself.

"That's right, if you want a betrothal gift, why not say so earlier? Why do you regret it now after you have earned the reputation of not being greedy for your daughter's betrothal gift?

Is this what you scholars do? It's really ridiculous. You are not as honest as us, a small family. It's despicable."

Mother Wei and the housekeeper ridiculed Mr. Liu together, and the people outside also became anxious. It seemed that Wen Meijiu, who supported his family, was in trouble.

Wang Yuanwai sneered, turned around and looked at Wen Meijiu who was standing by the door, and said:

"Let me continue what I said just now. If the young lady is willing to marry into my family, our relationship can be written off."

Everyone knows what he is thinking. When he saw the county magistrate's unhappy face just now, he had already realized something. After thinking about it for a while, he wanted to kill two birds with one stone.

If he could pay the price of the wine, he would have one less lawsuit to deal with and it would be easier for him to explain to the county magistrate.

"Bah, dream on!"

A young man who had always wanted to protect Wen Meijiu spat at Mr. Wang's face from a distance.

Wen Meijiu raised his chin slightly, a hint of sarcasm appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he smiled:

"You have so many concubines, which one is yours? Can you manage them all?"

This again caused a burst of laughter from the people around, and the meaning was self-evident.

Mr. Wang's face turned red, and a mouthful of blood blocked his chest. Isn't this just scolding him for having green grassland on his head?

He was about to start cursing when the county magistrate slammed his gavel and frightened him back.

"Silence! Mr. Liu, do you have anything else to say?"

"Words are not enough. I refuse to accept the fact. The witnesses were all bribed by Mr. Wang. I want physical evidence."

Mr. Liu kowtowed to the ground with a firm attitude.

"Okay, come here, bring up the marriage certificate and betrothal gift list.

Liu's father is not convinced, I will make you convinced."

At this time, the county magistrate also wanted to win the lawsuit as soon as possible, so that the warm wine could appease the people and avoid a more passive situation in the future.

Soon, Mr. Wang's housekeeper presented the marriage certificate and betrothal gift list together.

Wang Yuanwai did not forget to sneer at Liu Xianggong who was kneeling on the ground:

"A family of scholars, but one that doesn't keep its word. Do you think my Wang family is easy to bully?"

Turning back, he mocked Wen Meijiu again:

"You are also responsible. Let's wait and see."

After saying this, he was still not satisfied, so he stood up, dusted himself off, went to the county magistrate, stretched his neck out, and said with impatience:

"My dear nephew, your uncle was wrongly accused by these rogues. Why don't you redress my grievances quickly? What are you waiting for?"

The lawyer saw that the county magistrate's face looked strange and hurried forward to take a look.

It would have been fine if I hadn't looked at it, but once I did, my eyes almost popped out. The marriage certificate was blank, and the betrothal gift list was also blank.

Oh my god! This uncle wouldn't treat the court as a joke, not even bothering to collect evidence, and expect the county magistrate to clear his name with empty words, right?

"do not talk."

The lawyer broke out in a cold sweat and reached out to cover the mouth of Mr. Wang who was leaning over, but Mr. Wang pushed him away angrily.

"What are you doing? You are rebelling against me."

The lawyer was pushed down against the wall and struggled for a long time but couldn't get up.

Taking advantage of this gap, Mr. Wang went around to the county magistrate. He also noticed something was wrong and wanted to see what was going on.

"Wang Jinzhong, do you want to rebel?"

The county magistrate finally came to his senses from the shock. He almost fainted when he saw the marriage certificate and betrothal gift list which only had the title written on them.

He thought his uncle had everything ready and was just waiting for him to decide the case, but he didn't expect that he would come with a head between his shoulders. Did he want him to be buried with him?

It would be fine if it was just a minor fight at other times, but now the case is being tried openly in front of the people of the entire Minhuang County. Isn't this just asking for death?

With a "snap" sound, he slapped the thing in his hand aside.

Instantly, blood rushed to the county magistrate's face, and his fingers were about to poke Wang Yuanwai's forehead. He endured it and said:

"You, get down here!"

Wang Yuanwai was so confused by the scolding that the courage he had just used to push the master disappeared without a trace. He smacked his lips twice, lifted up his clothes and went down, mumbling unwillingly:

"Just go down. White cannot become black."

The lawyer got up and ran to the county magistrate, blocking his face with half of his body. The two of them whispered to each other beside the desk.

"Sir, there are so many people outside, we have to take them into consideration, right? After all, there is no physical evidence, and it is still unknown whether there is any problem with the witness."

The lawyer felt distressed and tried his best to persuade them.

"But my mother is right behind me. She only has this one brother from her mother's side. She's in poor health, how can she bear it?"

The county magistrate was also in a dilemma.

"Sir, someone has sent you an expedited letter."

A man who looked like a servant came quickly from the back hall and handed an unsigned letter to the county magistrate.

The lawyer took it, opened it and was stunned. It was a handwritten letter from the prefect, Mr. Song.

After reading the letter, his face turned pale. The prefect was far away, how could he know the situation here?

Could it be that these people in the hall have some background?

Never mind, it’s convenient for others and for yourself.

The county magistrate loudly announced with a bang of the gavel:

"Although Mr. Wang has all the evidence, Mr. Liu and his wife do not agree to this marriage, and Mr. Wang is my uncle, I make the decision and sentence Mr. Wang to return the bride to the Liu family and annul the marriage."

This result was a little unexpected, but the goal was achieved. I just felt a little bit wronged, and I had to make Wang Yuan bleed to make myself feel better.

With a turn of his eyes, Wen Meijiu came up with an idea and shouted to Wang Yuanwai, who was frowning:

"Mr. Wang, please return her quickly. If Miss Liu loses even a hair, you will pay with your life."

Mr. Wang was feeling worried, and when Wen Meijiu called out to him, he shivered suddenly.

The bride disappeared last night. Lin Xiaoniang, the concubine in the family, said that the bride was kidnapped by bandits, and also the "servants" in the backyard who were there to pay off debts were abducted by the bandits.

Wang Yuanwai did not believe what his concubine Lin Xiaoniang said. How could there be no noise when the bandits were robbing people and stealing things?

But what should he say since the county magistrate had made such a ruling?

No, we cannot lose this case like this. What if the other party wants the release of the person?

Without waiting for Wen Meijiu to provoke him again, Wang Yuanwai became anxious. He reached out and grabbed Wen Meijiu by the collar, and roared at the county magistrate in the hall:

"The case was closed without any clear reason. Isn't it too easy for her?"
