On her wedding night, she went into exile with her pharmacy arsenal
Chapter 1186 Counter-claim
When Beibei mentioned returning the money, Old Master Wu, who was already confused, became even more confused.
"You...you bought my farm for only five thousand taels, and you want to return the money?"
Beibei was surprised, and looked him up and down and said, "What are you talking about? It's just five thousand taels, as if your family can take out five thousand taels at will. If you are really so rich, why would you sell the farm?"
"Besides, if you feel it's not suitable, then just return the money and I'll give the farm back to you! Am I wrong?"
Bei Bei looked at the people outside, bowed his hands and said, "Everyone, please judge for yourself. He said that I sold it too cheaply, and I said that I can regret it and return the money to me, and I will return the farm to him. Is this wrong?"
The onlookers looked at each other in bewilderment.
“That doesn’t sound unreasonable.”
"Yes, it is said that the deeds for sale of houses and land are written without regret. Once they are in the name of the owner, they are the owner's. Now Mr. Wu has changed his mind... He is a little in the wrong, but he didn't say anything."
"But why does it seem that Mr. Wu doesn't want to return the money?"
"You're out of money, right? Don't you still have to pay off the debt to your third son?"
"Then what's there to discuss? Are you just asking them to return the farm but not the money? Are you asking them for five thousand taels for nothing?"
"Well, last time, the third son of their family asked the servant to sell the furniture to the Zhao brothers. Later, the third son went to ask for it back, saying that it was stolen and he was unaware of it, and asked the owner to return the furniture."
"Isn't this a routine? It's just the same old trick."
Beibei came, and Fengshao also came. When they mingled in the crowd, they guided the direction of public opinion with just a few words.
For them, this matter is a piece of cake and they have to make a quick decision. They also have to keep an eye on the Su family and they are busy today.
Beibei laughed briefly: "What do you mean? You want to take five thousand taels from me for nothing? No way!"
Bei Bei bowed to Governor Cao and said, "Sir, if he doesn't return the money, then I won't return the farm either. Originally, I had good intentions in this matter. After returning, I regretted that I shouldn't have asked for his farm. I only regretted that I was soft-hearted and agreed to it. Who would have thought... today he would sue me."
When everyone heard this, they wondered why they were still unwilling to buy it. There must be something hidden.
Feng Shao asked in the crowd: "Big brother, what do you mean by that? Didn't you want to buy it in the first place?"
"This brother is right," Beibei continued, "You all know that when his family's manor was first sold, there was not only me but also a very honest big brother, the steward of their Wu family, who actually wanted 60,000 taels."
There was a gasp from the crowd.
"Sixty thousand! My god, how much silver is that?"
"Isn't this too outrageous? My uncle is the manager of a rich family's farm. I heard that a good farm would cost at most 30,000 taels."
"Yes, I remember the Shen family had a manor with a hot spring earlier, but I heard it was only worth fifty thousand."
"Who said it wasn't?" Beibei said loudly, "I advised that big brother to be cautious, but the Wu family's housekeeper said so much that the big brother was dizzy. The Wu family's housekeeper also promised that when the big brother's children go to school in the future, Old Master Wu will definitely help."
"Alas, parents all over the world are pitiful, and they are also for their children," Beibei continued, "Maybe it was God's will. God couldn't bear to see that big brother being cheated like this. As a result, I was about to leave. When they were about to reach an agreement, big brother's followers came and said that they found a corpse in the bushes behind the manor!"
Everyone exclaimed.
Murder cases are always the most attractive.
"My eldest brother was timid. After seeing the corpse, he didn't dare to take it no matter what. He immediately took his people and left. The Wu family's housekeeper chased me to the door, and then saw that I didn't leave, so he quickly stopped me."
"I didn't want it either, but the Wu family's housekeeper begged and cried, saying that their third son owed gambling debts and secretly sold military rations. He was discovered and had to pay off the debt, so he had no choice but to sell the farm."
"Alas, I am also soft-hearted," Beibei glanced at Old Master Wu, "I also admired the old master's character before, but I never thought that today..."
"You're talking nonsense!" Old Master Wu retorted, "How could there be a corpse in my farm?"
Bei Bei snorted and laughed: "You don't believe it? That's fine."
Beibei glanced at Yan Ruyu out of the corner of her eye, and Yan Ruyu nodded slightly.
Beibei stepped forward and said to Governor Cao, "Sir, I was afraid that this kind of thing would happen and someone would come to cause trouble, so after taking over the farm, I immediately buried the bones and secretly visited several tenants to ask those who might know about it."
"I was afraid of being involved in a murder case, so I was cautious. After finding out what happened, I wanted to report it to the police, but... I heard that something tragic happened to the Wu family, so I held back."
Beibei sneered: "What a pity, my kindness is not rewarded. In this case, there is no need to worry about anything."
"Sir, I beg you to bring the remains up to the hall."
Governor Cao didn't understand what would happen next and wanted to see how the situation would be resolved.
He nodded and said, "Okay."
Beibei clapped his hands, and two people brought the corpse wrapped in white cloth into the hall.
Yan Ruyu said at the right time: "Sir, since there is a corpse, please ask the coroner to examine it."
"Yes, come, call the coroner to come to the hall for examination."
The coroner arrived quickly, and the body had already turned into bones, so the autopsy was quick.
"My Lord, this is the body of a woman. Two of her ribs are broken and her arms are injured, but these are not fatal. The fatal injury is that there is a dent on the back of her head and cracks around it. It should be caused by a blunt object."
Governor Cao nodded solemnly: "The death is tragic, but it's a pity that we don't know who she is. Come on, check if there have been any reports of missing persons in previous years..."
Beibei said: "Sir, there is no need to check, I already know who she is."
Governor Cao was surprised: "Oh? Who is she?"
Beibei took out a piece of paper and handed it over with both hands: "Sir, this is what I got after a secret visit. There are signatures and seals on it. Please take a look at it."
The lawyer took the paper and placed it in front of Governor Cao.
Governor Cao finished reading it quickly, his expression became more and more solemn, and anger gradually emerged between his brows.
The people stretched their necks to look. The scene was completely silent. Everyone was waiting to listen, not knowing what was written on the paper.
Huo Changhe looked at Yan Ruyu. Yan Ruyu looked calm and confident. He knew that the matter was under Yan Ruyu's control.
Beibei also secretly sighed that the princess was really capable and foresighted, and had made preparations early, otherwise, it would be hard to say whether she would not be bitten back by old man Wu today.
Bei Bei was full of confidence and glared at Old Master Wu coldly - Old Man Wu, if you dare to open your mouth and bite today, I will knock out your old teeth!
Governor Cao read it twice more and slammed the gavel: "Hey! Wu Zhouce, do you admit your guilt?"
