Chapter 12 New Account

The streets are noisy, almost shoulder to shoulder when crowded.Shen Juexin asked Shen Ci to follow Wanniang wherever she went, and when the crowd left, she walked leisurely forward with a folding fan in her hand. "Huh?" A few meters away, the officials of the government office stood solemnly.She looked up, but saw the official plaque hanging above the gate.Shen Ci was standing on the side of the stone lion in front of the door, when he saw the young master coming, he immediately followed him, saying: "Young master."

"Where's the person? But you lost your track?" Before asking, Shen Juexin already understood seven points.She looked at the courtyard of the government office and shook her fan in thought, and she heard Shen Ci's honest words: "Back to the young master, Shen Ci followed Wanniang all the way here. I wanted to get closer, but she ran into the government office. The officials on both sides They are all here, Shen Ci dare not rush in, and can only wait here for the young master to come."

"Entered the official office?" Shen Juexin closed the folding fan, even though he guessed her whereabouts, he still showed doubts, and muttered to himself: "Why is she going to the official office?" .She and Wanniang have only shallow acquaintances, and people close to her are unwilling to ask about matters involving the government, so why is she so troublesome?Let it go, Shen Juexin called Shen Ci, "Let's go, let's go to the shop and have a look." She turned around, but she didn't know how heartbreaking Wanniang was crying in the government office.

"My lord, the relatives of the deceased have been found. According to his testimonials, he fell into the water and died. The deceased was addicted to alcohol and gambling. In addition, on the day he died, the river surged, and there were too many round boulders on the bank, which caused such a tragedy. "On the lobby, the fatter policeman stood next to the corpse covered in white cloth in relief, thinking that he had finally completed the task assigned by his superiors, and he should drink a few more glasses to celebrate in the evening.

"Since this case is not a homicide but an accident, I will close the case here." Mr. Su sat in the hall with a solemn face, he asked the fatter arrester to step back quickly, and said to Wan Niang in the hall: "Wan Niang, the deceased Passed away, those who are alive should take good care of themselves. Please bury your husband for a good life, let your condolences be changed. Retire!"

"Thank you, sir." Looking at Master Su who retreated into the inner hall, Wanniang was full of grief and didn't know who to tell.She knelt on the ground and looked at the already cold body of her husband, tears dripping down the white cloth calmly. "Master, you went so suddenly, what should I call Wanniang?!" She cried, and was still unwilling to leave the hall of the mansion with the corpse.

Ordinarily, Wanniang had been tortured and tortured by her husband-in-law when she was alive, but now that he died unexpectedly, Wanniang should feel relieved.However, this is not the case.When her husband-in-law was alive, she owed a lot of gambling debts and alcohol debts. In order to repay them all, Wanniang sold all the soybeans and car stalls, and even paid the only two pieces of land to the creditors.I originally wanted to persuade my husband to quit drinking and gambling to live a stable life, but on the night of his death, he took the house deed to the gambling house to make a final fight.It is unknown whether she will win or lose, but Wanniang's husband-in-law is no longer here, and she and Ling'er, who is less than one year old, don't even have a place to sleep, let alone 'good for burying her husband'.

Seeing Wanniang not leaving for a long time, the yamen servants at the side couldn't help chasing them away: "I said who, my lord has already said that he has withdrawn from court, so you should hurry up and take your husband's body away! Don't delay our work here!"

"My lord, I..." Wan Niang looked at the yamen servant full of tears, her face was full of confusion, "My lord's body is too heavy. With my strength alone, I really...please help me, my lord. Put it...." Before finishing speaking, other yamen servants waved their hands impatiently and said, "Go, go, the officials are very busy, where can you find the time to carry the corpse for you?!"

Wanniang was persistent, but there was really nothing else she could do: "But my lord, with my strength alone, how can I carry my husband's body home? The little girl in the house hasn't been fed yet, please help me."

"Go, go, you woman really don't know what to do. We have allowed you to stay here for a long time. Since you have no grievance case to report, you should quickly leave with your husband's body!!! If you continue to pester, don't blame us Kick you out!" The yamen servant stared at Wanniang with round eyes, showing no sympathy.It's no wonder that the yamen servants thought that Wanniang would give them some money to help them, and today they would get a share of the wine money for nothing. How could they know that this woman is so beautiful, but she is a master who can't turn her head around. annoying.

Being treated with such awe by the yamen servant, Wanniang couldn't help shivering.She lowered her head to look at the already rotten corpse, and finally made an act of desecrating the corpse out of helplessness.She lifted the white cloth over the corpse, and used her thin body to lift up the swollen and twisted corpse that had been soaked by the river.She hugged the corpse as she would a drunk person, without saying a word, just gritted her teeth and moved forward step by step.

Seeing her leaving with the corpse, the yamen servants couldn't help chatting aloud.One of the yamen servants said: "I heard that her husband was a gambler before his death, and all the money in the family was lost to him. I don't know how she will live in the future?!"

"Hi! Don't talk about the days to come, I guess she won't even be able to afford the funeral expenses!"

"You guys are really worrying about it. How can you afford it? With her beauty, she can take her body to the street and sell herself to bury her husband. There will be a rich man's master who will buy her. At that time, she will be the rich man's concubine It might be a good thing!" When the yamen servant said this, Wanniang hadn't gone far, and she was worried about her future livelihood, but because of the yamen servant's words, she suddenly had some plans.Since she can't spend too much money to bury her husband for a while, it's better to sell herself to a rich man's house as a servant. In this way, she can also take good care of Ling'er.

The Shen family's old shop is at the end of the street in the east of the city, and the people who usually come here to buy jade are the daughters of wealthy families, so the prices of the goods are slightly more expensive than those at the stall.Before Shen Juexin entered the shop, she stopped outside the commercial building under repair in front. She waved her fan and looked again and again, but she couldn't figure out what kind of business was going on here.It happened that a carpenter came out carrying a wooden pillar, so Shen Juexin winked at Shen Ci, asking him to go forward and ask.After a while, Shen Ci came back from the carpenter and told her the truth: "Master, the carpenter doesn't know what kind of business he is in. He only knows that the master is from the capital and spends a lot of money, but he hasn't seen his true face. For the rest, I don't know."

"Really? It seems to be a mysterious person." Shen Juexin smiled, but didn't take it to heart.She called out 'Shen Ci', and the two stepped into their shop one after the other.
