"Say, the grass people said."
Father Ma, who saw that kowtowing was useless, was reminded this time. He quickly explained over and over again: "That day, there was a farm owner in the west of the town who wanted to buy some maids and servants.
When the grassroots heard about it, they rushed over with Ma Ling'er. I want to sell her to get some money.
But there were a lot of people there that day. Because we were far away, when we arrived, we were so crowded that we couldn’t even see what the owner’s front door looked like.
Ling'er was squeezed out at that moment. No, maybe she ran away on purpose. She didn't want to be sold, let alone work as a maid in someone else's house, so she ran away.
The grassroots searched for her for a long time but could not find her. The owner of the village has purchased enough manpower, and the common people haven't found that stinky girl Ling'er yet.
The grass-roots people got angry, ignored her, and went home. Also, I didn’t let anyone at home look for him. If she feels tired and hungry from running, she will naturally come home.
As a result, she never came back. The grass-roots people were even more angry, thinking: She will love her to death...
It’s just that I don’t know which turtle bastard got the better of her. After all, she was the daughter of ordinary people who worked hard to raise her. They originally expected to marry her to a good family, or sell her for some money.
It wasn't until three days later that someone came to Cao Min's house to report that the body of a little girl was found by the river. It looked like my Ma Ling'er.
The grassroots and grassroots rushed over to collect her body. In fact, the grassroots didn't want to collect any corpses from her. When I rushed over, I was still hoping it wasn't her.
But when they saw that it was really her, the common people had no choice but to accept it. Because the villagers said that if she didn't collect it and bury it far away, her family would be in bad luck.
The grassroots just accepted it...
It was really disgusting. She looked so frightened even if she was soaked in water. It was still wet in the middle of winter, and she had to carry it on her back... Many times, she wanted to just throw it away.
Sir, I, no, it was the grassroots who really didn't want to bury her so far away. It was really what they said that made the grassroots carry her away. The common people didn't mean to make the official have a hard time..."
Di Ying's face darkened and she put down her chopsticks.
He looked at Father Ma who couldn't understand or speak human language.
He said in a deep tone: "Ma Fu, you are a father in vain! In your eyes, Ma Ling'er is not a person at all, not your biological daughter connected by flesh and blood, but just a piece of goods that can be sold for money. What a thing!
When she dies, she is just a piece of damaged goods to you. Therefore, you did not look at the government at all to seek justice for her.
If people like you hit you, they will dirty the board. "
After saying that, Di Ying looked at Zhai Hengyang, nodded his chin towards him and towards Father Ma and said: "This... I leave it to you. Remember to let him serve five years of hard labor. Not counting holidays, but Five full years.”
Seeing Zhai Hengyang nodding silently, Di Ying asked Ma Mu again, "Ms. Sun, do you have anything else to say? If not, then prepare to serve five years of hard labor with your husband. "
"I have it, and the women of the country have it, and they have something to say."
Five years of hard labor completely frightened Sun, and she shouted in a panic: "The civilian woman didn't want to sell Ling'er, it was the damn horse who secretly took her out.
Really, women have never thought of selling their children to make a living. My family has land and land, and our life is not very difficult. There is no need to imitate other families who sell their children and daughters.
Moreover, the civilian woman had no idea that Ma Fu had any intention of selling Ling'er. Really, I didn't know.
On that day, when Ling'er disappeared, Ma Fu came back to look for her. I didn't know about it, so I went crazy and slapped Ma Fu, and then went to Zhenxi to look for Ling'er.
I am Ling'er's biological mother. I know that Ling'er likes to play in the water. There is a river in the west of the town, so I, I will go to the river to look for her..."
As the horse mother spoke, she suddenly started to hesitate, her eyes flashed, her tone was vague, and her body shrank back unconsciously.
"Snapped!"
Di Ying slapped the table and shouted: "What did you see? Why don't you take it seriously!"
This sudden coercion frightened the horse mother into excitement, and she suddenly said uncontrollably: "I, I saw the back of a person, a young man.
When that person heard my voice calling Ling'er, he got into the woods by the river and ran away.
I, I only saw the smaller half of his face. He, he didn’t have a beard and he looked like he was only in his teens. But I don't know him.
After he ran away, I saw my Linger, covered in blood and in tatters, lying in the grass by the river.
I'm scared, scared to death. I'm worried that that person will kill me when he comes back...
I just, by some strange coincidence, I threw Ling'er, Ling'er, into the river. And... there's also a bloody stick left by that person.
I, I was also thrown into the river.
I was thinking that if that person saw me doing this, he would know that I would not pursue him at all, and he, he would not think of killing me to silence me.
My lord, my lord, I really didn’t mean to do that. But I have to live, right? Ling'er is dead, she's dead anyway, I..."
Before he could finish "I", Nie Bo was so angry that he jumped up. He rushed forward and punched Sun's face hard.
The kneeling Sun was immediately knocked sideways and hit the leg of the table next to her. She fainted with blood on her face.
Di Yingze said calmly: "Five years of hard labor is too light. Zhai Hengyang, sentence Sun to exile. If she wants to live, then let her live to atone for her daughter's sins. "
Zhai Hengyang lowered his head. This time, he couldn't even nod his head.
He was also angry, but even more ashamed.
He also asked about Ma Mu and Sun. In the end, they didn’t know what they were saying, so he just believed it...
At this time, he heard what the "mountain king" said, which made him even more ashamed and ashamed.
"If an official is not clear-minded, he is an accomplice of evil people."
What Zhai Hengyang doesn't know yet is that this is just the beginning.
"Crack!"
The sparks in the charcoal basin suddenly burst and made a loud noise.
Only then did Di Ying notice that after he slapped the table, the tiger's mouth opened again, and blood slowly seeped out.
Only then did he realize that the silence in the room at this time was because the guards were all staring at his hands.
Di Ying hurriedly waved his hand and said, "It's okay. I haven't done farm work for a long time. When I used an ax to split wood, I used it too hard."
None of the guards spoke, they just stared at his hands.
"Hey, my lord, have you ever seen a hand that was used as a cross, but when were there two hands? Why is your right hand chopping firewood, and your left hand is also injured by the shock?"
Peng Liang sighed and said this, then continued to eat noodles with his head down.
