She was so excited that she wanted to pounce.
Feng Yue, with sharp eyes and quick hands, stepped forward and stopped in front of Shen Nanbao.
"What are you talking about! We have already said that we are doing serious business and have never done anything shady. It's you who insists on holding on to us!"
She stretched her neck and shouted to the onlookers around her: "Guys, you all saw it just now, are these rice at all moldy and rotten?"
The judges shook their heads.
Seeing this, Shen Nanbao took advantage of the situation and glanced at the waiter.
The waiter was impressed and immediately raised his voice, "It's obvious to everyone. Let me be fair to our customers. Our customers are not that kind of people. The rice sold to you has been carefully inspected by yourself. Every bag and every grain is good." Okay, I’m sure it’s not adulterated! Please feel free to buy in the future and don’t let this matter scare you!”
The judges naturally said no, and all expressed their intention to come to Shen Nanbao for business in the future.
Shen Nanbao still had a smile like water on his face, and he thanked everyone warmly.
Feng Yue on the other side also changed her soft tone when she saw this, and looked at Wang Po again, "Wang Po, our customers have also fulfilled our promise and opened the granary to show everyone our grain. Wang Po, you Shouldn't you fulfill your promise and go to the government to confess your crime?"
The elongated tone conveyed a hint of schadenfreude.
Wang Po heard the blue veins on her forehead twitching.
However, the spectators on the side also echoed, asking Mrs. Wang to quickly go to the government to confess her crime and not to disrupt other people's business.
"Didn't some people just make such a vow to you?"
"You really take it seriously! Aren't the Liu family notoriously scoundrels?"
No matter what you say to me, Wang Po, no matter how thick-skinned she is, can't resist being drooled with saliva like this, and she immediately becomes red. She screamed and sat on the ground, "What a huge injustice! What a huge injustice!"
Mrs. Wang beat her chest and wailed, "I was also deceived! Someone told me that there was something fishy about Mrs. Shen's rice shop, so I..."
Fengyue snorted, "You were still saying that just now. You saw the mold in our house with your own eyes, and now you change your story. Who would believe it!"
Grandma Wang said, "There's nothing I can do. If I don't say this, who would believe it? They might think I'm just looking for trouble."
Fengyue rolled her eyes, "What is this called? This is called retribution! Who told you to do bad things all day long!"
Seeing that Feng Yue and Wang Po couldn't find the point after talking for a long time, Shen Nanbao immediately stood up and said, "Why are you telling her so much? Whether she is wronged or not, the official will decide whether there is anything fishy in it."
He turned his head, called the waiter, and asked Mrs. Wang to go to the Yamen.
The waiter was already very angry because Grandma Wang had a lot of work on her hands in the past two days. Now after listening to Shen Nanbao's instructions, he waved his hand and summoned the few strong men carrying goods in the upper bunk to get ready. Come and get Wang Po.
Naturally, Mrs. Wang refused to let go. She stood up like a carp, pointed at Shen Nanbao and cursed angrily: "Your female godfather is a guardian, how dare you offend an official like us! You pinch me and go to the government office." Do you want to eat my good fruit?"
As soon as she finished speaking, the waiters and other waiters silenced her.
Madam Wang immediately howled, "Kill! Kill! In broad daylight, in a clear sky, Mrs. Xiao is going to kill!"
After hearing this, Feng Yue picked up a piece of cloth and stuffed it into Wang Po's mouth, "If you want to yell, go to the government office and yell!"
Then he raised his chin at the waiter and the others.
The waiters were impressed and picked up Wang Po like a pig and followed Shen Nanbao to the government office.
Jiangfu Yin knew Shen Nanbao's background. When he heard that someone was coming to the Yamen, he hurried to the door to greet him.
"Mrs. Xiao, why do you have time to come here today?"
Before Shen Nanbao could answer, Jiang Fuyin took a first look at Mrs. Wang who was whining non-stop. She was surprised and said, "Isn't this the old Liu family? What evil has she done?"
Shen Nanbao knelt down to him, "I didn't want to bother Mr. Jiang, but this old woman is so annoying!"
She pointed to Mrs. Wang, "A while ago, I was teased with obeisance, and today I came to my shop again and accused me of being a shady shopkeeper."
Sell, slander me for buying and selling moldy rice. Mr. Jiang, you also know that the most important thing in doing business is reputation. Without reputation, business cannot be done, so I made a bet with Ji Nian. If I sell moldy rice to everyone, then I will take off my hairpin mat. If I didn't, then she would have to come to the government to kowtow and be punished obediently. "
As soon as these words were spoken, the lady in charge somehow managed to free herself from the gagged cloth and shouted, "It's unfair! It's unfair! Mr. Jiang, I was wronged!"
Unjustly accused?
Jiangfu Yin rolled his eyes at Granny Wang.
Gongzhou is neither big nor small. There are so many people in Gongzhou who have never heard of the name Wang Po Pi Lai.
What's more, he almost offended the Beiting Protector a while ago because of Wang Po's family.
Now again! It’s still Di Ji!
Even if he was really unjust, would he dare to make the decision to have Di Ji taken away?
It's better to send this bad old woman to jail quickly, before she stirs up another trouble and makes him panic.
That’s what I think, but I can’t say it like that, otherwise if I keep nagging him, I won’t be able to protect his official position even if the King of Heaven comes...
Grandma Wang didn't know what Jiang Fuyin was doing, but she kept talking about her grievances: "I'm really unjust. Someone deliberately asked me to do this."
Jiang Fuyin raised an eyebrow, "Is there someone? Who?"
Fengyue was afraid that following the clues would lead to her own fault, so she took the lead and said, "You idiot, you said before that you saw us selling moldy rice, but now you change your story! I see someone is instigating it, it's clearly you. You framed yourself!"
Wang Po was very confident, "Of course I have to say this, otherwise how could you open a position for us to see!"
"you……"
"Wang Po," Shen Nanbao interrupted Feng Yue, "since you said someone instigated you, who instigated you? Besides, it should have been a benefit to you, otherwise you would have made such a fuss in vain? "
Grandma Wang choked, and fire rushed from her chest to her face. When she spoke again, her voice was almost coming from the grinding of her back molars, "It's only fifty taels, and you don't even look at my house. There are so many When you open your mouth to eat, there is a wet nurse..."
She was probably really angry, and Granny Wang's throat trembled, "Speaking of which, it's not your fault. You didn't find this wet nurse. How can I take such unconscionable money just because I have to give this person money?"
Shen Nanbao laughed angrily, "I see that none of you orphans or widowers can take care of that innocent child, so I'm kind enough to help you. But it turns out you're doing well, and you're blackmailing me, asking me to take care of the nanny's money for you every month." , this advantage is too good to take advantage of in your eyes!"
Mrs. Wang felt a pain in her heart because of her blockage, but in front of Fu Yin, she had to hold back her complaints and anger, and just stared at Shen Nanbao, "Mrs. Xiao, I thank you for your kindness, but you can't be blind." You are so kind, you are from a different family, and I am from a different family. Just a little leakage from your fingers is enough for my family to chew grain for a year. Find me a wet nurse who pays ten taels of silver a month. Are you leading me to death? Are you forced?"
There is not a single mistake or omission in this statement.
Even Shen Nanbao was stunned for a moment, "It's my fault..."
Shen Nanbao smiled, "But what you said just now, 'It's only fifty taels of silver,' doesn't sound like a master who is short of money."
Her voice was clear, like gentle and clean running water, but she could hear Mrs. Wang holding back her anger like a rat gnawing at the sky. Finally, she couldn't bear it any longer and pointed at the bridge of Shen Nanbao's nose and cursed, "Those who seek death, want to It’s not that you are being mean, I can…”
However, before she could finish her words, a loud sound interrupted her. Jiang Fuyin took the gavel tree and slapped it hard, "Quiet! There is no place for you and others to act wild in the court."
Wang Po was not convinced, but she had no choice but to suppress Nan Bao with her eyeballs.
Who would have thought that Jiang Mansion Yin actually forced her to ask: "Public Queen, I want to ask you whether what Mrs. Xiao's maid just said is true? Did you use people's money to slander Mrs. Xiao for selling moldy rice?"
"grown ups……"
Gavel slapped him hard.
Wang Po was so frightened that she was stunned on the spot.
"I'm just asking you
,Yes or no. "
Wang Po said: "My lord, I have no choice..."
Before he finished speaking, Jiang Fuyin slapped the gavel hard again, "Yes or no!"
Wang Po trembled again, not knowing what to say now.
When Jiang Fuyin saw this, he slapped him again, "Answer!"
The loud sound hit Grandma Wang on the heart like a hammer, and she panicked, "Master Qingtian..."
Jiang Fuyin still used the gavel to scare her, "Stop flattering me, I just want you to answer me yes or no."
Wang Po is usually arrogant, but that's only in the market. She doesn't dare to have any arrogance in the face of these officials.
And because of Jiang Fuyin's continuous threats and coercion, Wang Po finally lost her sense of proportion and responded hurriedly and tremblingly: "Yes... I mean..."
The falling tree cut off Wang Po's words.
"So you admitted that you did slander Mrs. Xiao for selling moldy rice."
Wang Po was stunned.
Jiangfu Yin did not wait for her to react, and immediately said: "In that case, Wang Po will be fined fifty silver for framing someone else, and will be imprisoned immediately until the fine is paid."
After saying this, Jiangfu Yin waved.
The officer holding the water and fire stick stepped forward.
Wang Po's eyes widened when she saw this, and she struggled, "Master Jiang! Master Jiang..."
I couldn't hear what was said after that. It was the yamen servant who thought she scratched her ears and took a piece of cloth and stuffed it in her mouth.
Wang Po's liver and gallbladder were about to burst, but she was too old and frail to be as strong as the yamen servant, so she was carried all the way to the cell by the yamen servant like a little chicken, and was thrown in like a rag.
Wang Po staggered from the fall, and when she regained her balance, the yamen guards had already put chains on the cell door.
Wang Po climbed over in a hurry.
"Lord Guancha, Lord Guancha, please do me a favor and spare me a few words to say to Lord Jiang. I am really unjust!"
The yamen officer looked at her coldly and said, "What you need to say has just been said in the hall. It was you who admitted the crime yourself, and now you turn around and say you were wronged?"
Wang Po was so anxious that she scratched her head and ears, "I was just confused for a moment..."
The yamen servant didn't want to listen to her excuses and waved his hand, "Don't say it. Why don't you straighten your tongue and seize the opportunity? Now that you're here, you're complaining again?"
He murmured, "I advise you to pay the fine and get out of prison as soon as possible! After all, this prison is not very comfortable for you, an old man."
Speaking of the fine, Mrs. Wang was so anxious that she almost cried, "My family is so poor that we can't even take the blame. How can we have any spare money to pay the fine! Mr. Official, please do me a favor. Please do it for me..."
Before he finished speaking, the officer stretched out his hand and pushed him.
"No, please don't beg me. I'm not a living Bodhisattva! You'd better wait and wait for your family to save you! Don't blame me for yelling and waiting for the punishment!"
Grandma Wang staggered as she was pushed, and the pain in her buttocks poured out the anger in her heart. She couldn't help but curse, "You can't judge randomly! It's obvious that Mrs. Xiao's little lover is the guardian." It’s just fear! There is absolutely no justice in this world! You can bully the weak and fear the strong!”
The officer sneered, "You know it but you still want to provoke her. You have a slippery road and you have to take the narrow road. Who can blame you for ending up like this?"
These words are full of profound meaning.
Wang Po's eyes widened, "Sir, what do you mean by this?"
