Xiao Le, who didn't know how they misunderstood this international gesture, went back to his room, put on some clothes, and sat in the main room.

Now not only the Xiao family heard the movement, but half the village knew that an official sent to the Ren family.

Fortunately, Xiao's father let the people who came out to watch the excitement go back in a few words, so we can talk about it in the daytime if there is anything to do, but now the Xiao and Ren families are no longer sleepy.

"Yunxing, you take Dabao and Xiaobao to sleep."

Seeing Xiaobao rubbing his eyes non-stop, Second Brother Xiao asked Xiao Yunxing to bring him in and continue to sleep.

"Let's go to sleep."

Xiaobao nodded and followed, but Dabao hesitated a little. He grabbed Ren's mother's hand helplessly, "My mother..."

"It's okay, it's okay, let's go find your mother tomorrow, be good, go to bed."

Mother Ren hugged him distressedly, and gently pushed him towards Xiao Yunxing.

Finally Dabao followed into the room.

"Just now that Boss Mo asked us to go to the county government office tomorrow, and said that Sanniang is already in the county government office."

Father Ren said in a low voice.

"Why is Sanniang in the county government office?"

"It's not locked up in the county government, but to live there temporarily. After the case is over, she can leave."

Also to protect her.

Hearing that Xiao's family felt relieved a lot.

"He actually wanted to harm Dabao and Xiaobao," Ren Cong clenched his hands into fists, "What a beast!"

Xiao Le looked at the sky, and turned to persuade Father Ren and the others to sleep a little longer, otherwise they would not be refreshed when they went to the county government office tomorrow, but they couldn't sleep, and they didn't sleep in the end, but talked with Father Xiao and his wife until dawn.

After Xiao Yunyue and the others prepared breakfast, they left them to eat breakfast, and Ren Cong borrowed an ox cart and the group went to the county government office.

"Yunyue."

Xiao Le called out.

Xiao Yunyue took a bag of dry food prepared in the morning and handed it to Ren Cong, "I'm hungry for lunch."

Ren Cong took the rations, waved to Xiao's family, and drove away in an ox cart.

"Hope everything goes well."

Sister Xiao sighed.

The Ren family came back that evening, and the Xiao family had already prepared meals, and enthusiastically asked them to eat here, "It's so late, I don't bother to go back and make it, Dabao and Xiaobao are hungry too, hey, where are the children?"

Mother Xiao and the others looked behind, but they really didn't see Dabao and Xiaobao.

Mother Ren showed a slightly relaxed smile, "After seeing Sanniang in the county office, she was unwilling to leave. Mo Butou said that it would be safe for the child to stay in the county office."

"Fortunately, we put the child in the county government," Ren Cong said with an uneasy expression, "When we were about to leave, the Yang family came over to ask for a child. It seemed that if we didn't hand over the big treasure and the little treasure to them, we would have to fight with them." We're just fighting."

Ren's father also sighed beside him.

The second sister-in-law Xiao heard that something was wrong, and seeing the tired faces of the three of them, she hurriedly asked people to enter the room. Xiao Yunlan fetched hot water again, and wiped their hands and faces.

Xiao's mother also brought three bowls of sugar water to make them sweeten their mouths.

This behavior made Ren's mother and the three of them a little jealous, and Ren Cong, a young man who had not been beaten severely, talked about their going to the county government.

"Catcher Mo took us to see Mr. Wang first. He asked us to talk about when we found out that something was wrong with Yang Tongcai. We didn't hide it. After everything was said, Mr. Wang asked some questions, and then we went I went to see Sanniang, stayed at the county government office all afternoon, and only met the Yang family when I left the county government office."

"So, you still have to go to the county government?"

Aunt Xiao asked curiously.

"Yes," Ren Cong nodded, "Our case is related to the murder case outside the city. Master Wang said that it will take about ten days to fully close the case."

What made them feel relieved was that the fake Yang Tongcai had already entered death row, and the death penalty would be a matter of time.

"As my third sister thought, the Yang family found out that it wasn't my brother-in-law before she did, and because they lost a son, they actually wanted this fake to live instead of my brother-in-law!"

When they said this, the faces of the Ren family were very ugly. It was their daughter and their grandson who were humiliated!

"But in front of the government, they pretended to be innocent. They heard that the man came to arrest Dabao and Xiaobao in the middle of the night, and then they showed suspicion. After being questioned repeatedly by Master Wang and Mo Butou, they told the truth."

Thinking of Mo Catcher drawing his sword, Ren Cong felt cold, "But they still have the face to ask us to hand over Dabao and Xiaobao, how shameless they are!"

"What is the Yang family thinking?"

"Yeah, but what's going on? How did the brothers meet? How could there be a murder?"

What is even more puzzling is that the murderer returned to Yang's house, pretending that nothing happened, and lived in place of the original owner.

"We are not very clear about this. Master Wang said that we still need to sort out the case files, and we will go to the county government in the future."

Ren Cong said.

"As long as someone is in prison, that's good news," Xiao Le said softly, "Auntie, Uncle, Sanniang's future life, what do you think?"

This is also a worry for the Ren family.

"Then the Yang family is nothing. Naturally, we don't want Sanniang to continue to live there. Master Wang said that we can ask the county master for a favor to let their mother and son go home to live, but..."

Father Ren looked at Ren Cong, "But Ren Cong hasn't gotten married yet, Sanniang and the others will come back, there must be a lot of gossip..."

"I don't care," Ren Cong said coldly, "I just hope that Third Sister and Dabao can live a good life."

"Do you think we don't feel sorry for your third sister?" Ren's mother wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and choked up, "But if you beat yourself up as a bachelor all your life because of this incident, how can your father and I feel relieved? How could your third sister Peace of mind?"

Xiao Le listened quietly, and also understood that the thinking of people in this era is not easy to change. Just like Ren's father and the others said, no matter what reason Ren Sanniang brought the child back to her natal home, she would make people talk nonsense. There were rumors that Ren Cong might not be able to marry a lady.

"Then separate the family, let the Yang family separate the brother-in-law and his family, and find another place to live in the town. The second sister-in-law's family is not far from the town, and there is also a caretaker."

The eyes of the Ren family members lit up, and Second Aunt Xiao nodded even more, "This is a good idea! I can stand on my own without being angry with the Yang family! I have a lot of brothers and cousins, so I can really take care of them."

Then they discussed the matter of family separation, Xiao Le got up and went back to his room to continue practicing calligraphy.

After dinner, the Ren family went back, and Xiao Le grabbed a few small literacy books to endorse.

Yang Tongcai's case didn't start until the eighth day after the man was arrested.

Xiao Le, Big Brother Xiao and Second Brother Xiao all went to the county government office. They stood outside the door, looking at the man kneeling in the middle of the hall in a mess.

"What is this man's name?"

Brother Xiao forgot again.

"Gao Fu," Second Brother Xiao couldn't help but smile, "Brother, your memory is too bad."

"That's because he's not a good person. If it's a good person's name, how can I not remember it?"

Brother Xiao is confident.

Xiao Le was protected by them, standing slightly in front of him, and just raised his head to meet Mo Tuntou's face.

Mo Butou raised his eyebrows slightly, then stood aside, the county magistrate slapped the gavel and began the trial.

"Who is kneeling?"

"...The villain is rich."

I don't know what Gaofu has experienced in the past eight days. Let alone talk about his weakness, he has no energy in his whole body, as if he has given up resistance.

"What is your relationship with Yang Tongcai from the Yang family's coffin shop?"

"He is my older brother, and we are brothers from the same mother."

"Do you know what crime you have committed?"

"kill……"

After this consecutive trial, everyone also understood the grievances between the two brothers. In fact, this is not caused by brothers, but by parents.

When Mother Yang gave birth to a pair of boys, because of taboo, they decided to give away one child and keep the other.

It was actually Yang Tongcai who was sent out for the first time, but a lot of strange things happened in the family not long after, causing the Yang family to feel that they had kept the wrong child, so they quickly found the first couple of adopters and replaced Yang Tongcai.

But after the couple learned that Gao Fu was a disaster, they didn't dare to adopt him. At that time, they gave Gao Fu to others, falsely claiming that they were born by themselves, and asked for a sum of adoption money.

Gao Fu was adopted by the Gao family, and his life was good for the first two years, but then the Gao family had their own flesh and blood, and they became harsh on him.

At a very young age, he started washing dishes on a stool, and washed the family's clothes in winter. He ate less and worked more. If he dared to cry, he would be beaten severely.

Gao Fu's life is more bitter than Coptis chinensis.

But he didn't know that he was adopted, so he lived a life without complaint. It wasn't until his time that he took care of Gao's father who was dying of illness. After hearing a lot of nonsense from the other party and putting together together, he didn't know that he was adopted. .

After Gao's father passed away, Gao's mother didn't want to raise such a big child anymore. The key was to marry him a wife. She couldn't bear it, so she divided Gao Fu out and gave him two taels of silver, nothing else.

To put it bluntly, he was kicked out of the house.

Gao Fu took the two taels of silver and found the family that Gao's father said. The family had a bit of conscience, knowing that Gao Fu's life was not good, so they thought they were his biological parents, so they told him the truth .

Knowing that he was supposed to live a good life, but was thrown out because of something wrong with his family, Gao Fu was full of hatred.

He grew a big beard, dressed in tatters, and wandered outside Yang's coffin shop for an unknown number of days. He carefully observed Yang Tongcai's demeanor, and secretly followed him to find out how many friends he had and what their relationship was like.

Among them, the shopkeeper of the rouge shop had the best relationship with Yang Tongcai, so he observed the two of them together. After several years, he didn't always look like a beggar, but occasionally he was a blind man with one eye blindfolded, a hunchback or something. Have been installed, has been waiting for the opportunity.

In the past two years, when Yang Tongcai was not at home, he deliberately changed into the clothes he had prepared, and ostentatiously went to drink and eat with the shopkeeper of the rouge shop.

After discovering that the shopkeeper had always regarded himself as Yang Tongcai, Gao Fu knew that his chance had come.

Yang Tongcai was going to Fucheng to do business, and Gao Fu killed the other party on the way. The corpse outside the city was the first person Gao Fu killed, in order to make himself proficient and be able to deal with Yang Tongcai at once.

Following Gao Fu's confession, Catcher Mo and the others dug up a corpse in the woods eighty miles away. It was naked, and its face was also slashed so that it couldn't be seen.

When Ren Sanniang and the others saw the corpse, they cried uncontrollably.

The Yang family knelt aside, seemingly frightened. Yang's father fainted on the spot, and Yang's mother even went mad, that is, epilepsy.

After a while of uproar, the county magistrate asked again if the purpose of the murder was to exchange identities?

Gao Fu rarely let out a sneer, "Sir, I should have been the one who stayed at home, but I think Yang Tongcai is the disaster star, Sanniang."

He looked at Ren Sanniang, who was crying so hard, "I watched you get married and have children. In my heart, I am him, so I just returned to my original position. I never wanted to hurt you. To arrest Dabao and the others, they just found that you were suspicious and wanted to use them to contain you."

"Shut up!"

Ren Sanniang hated him very much.

"Am I scary? It's not me that's scary, what's even scarier is your good parents-in-law. I deliberately showed my flaws in front of them, but they pretended not to know and always regarded me as Yang Tongcai, even when there were only the three of us eating." , Remind me when I pick up Yang Tongcai's least favorite dish," Gao Fu pointed at the Yang family couple and laughed, "They said, Tongcai, you didn't like this when you were young, you like to eat these, you can get remember!"

The courtroom was full of Gao Fu's laughter.

The Yang family couple knelt on the ground and trembled, without a word of defense. Before this, they were thoroughly questioned by Master Wang and Mo Butou, so there is nothing to say at this time.

"My lord! How can my sister and nephew survive in such an in-law's family? I beg your lord to give me the grace to let the Yang family separate my sister and brother-in-law's family, so that my brother-in-law can rest in peace!"

Ren Cong kowtowed loudly, and Ren Sanniang also kowtowed vigorously.

The county magistrate let out a long sigh, and ordered the Yang family and his wife to separate the family on the spot. They were beaten fifty times for not reporting the crime if they knew about it, and they were already unconscious when they were carried away.

And the one who was killed outside the city was a poor beggar. The county magistrate paid for the ritual and buried him.

Cut at Gaofu.

The case shocked the entire county.

Ren Sanniang's mother and son also left the county government. After Yang Tongcai was buried, the Xiao family and the Ren family helped them find a house and moved again, which was settled.

As for how her father died, Ren Sanniang did not hide it from the children. Dabao and Xiaobao grew up a lot in one fell swoop. .

"I don't regret telling them," Ren Sanniang told Mrs. Xiao, "the Yang family must be trying to coax them back. I would rather let them grow up in pain than step on their own father's bones to admit that To the vicious in-laws."

In order to thank the Xiao family for their help, the Ren family invited them to a meal, including fish, meat and wine. Ren Cong was busy like a monkey, and finally toasted them.

Xiao Le didn't talk much, but the excitement remained undiminished. Ren Cong kept saying "Third Brother", which made Xiao Le look at him a little strangely.

Ren Cong didn't understand at that time, until the next day, when Xiao Yunyue called Xiao Le's third uncle, Xiao Le looked at Ren Cong with a half-smile, and he suddenly understood.

The weather is getting colder and colder, Xiao Le doesn't want to go out at all, he reads at home every day, teaches a few children to read and recite, and if he has time, he will be arrested together.

His little life was beautiful, and after the twelfth lunar month, there was a light snowfall, and Xiao Le wrote a few saliva poems to praise the snow scene.

But just at the end of the new year, Xiao Le met Catcher Mo again because someone died in their village.

"Xiao Xiucai, long time no see."

Catcher Mo walked up to him carelessly, stared at his ruddy face with a smile and greeted him.
