County Magistrate Tang pursed his lips tightly, his eyes fixed on the woman at his feet!

He was calculating the possible development direction and consequences of this matter.

This damn woman actually ran to Puguan County to inquire about the situation!

If she really couldn't get the money here, would she go to Puguang County again and make a fuss there?

In this way, wouldn’t his embezzlement of gold and silver be exposed?

At this critical juncture, he has committed a new crime. I'm afraid that what awaits him is not just a simple transfer, but dismissal and investigation!

However, if he gave Zhuo Youcai's compensation to her, wouldn't all his work be in vain!

How will I settle down in the new place in the future?

"Looking at the state of this young lady, I think what she said is true!"

"Yes, they have already asked the county, it must be true!"

"Return the silver, return the silver!"

The voices of discussion spread again.

"Shut up! Where is this place? How can we allow such noise?"

County Magistrate Tang could never have imagined that things would turn out like this!

If he really lost his job, his future would be over!

All my hard work and the money I saved were wasted!

He forced a fake smile on his face: "In that case, it should be on the way. I haven't received it yet, you can go back and wait for news."

"No! The money has already arrived! Master, please don't cheat me, a woman."

Her mother has already taken fifteen taels of silver!

If the compensation has not arrived, could it be that this corrupt official paid for it himself?

It's impossible!

County Magistrate Tang exuded a cold and sinister aura. How could such an ugly woman be so difficult to deal with?

She is even more difficult to deal with than her mother, the Queen Mother!

Oh, by the way, Queen Mother! And the Wang brothers!

He suddenly felt a little regretful. Why did he let the three of them out so quickly?

If the three of them were still detained in prison at this moment, it would be much easier to deal with this Zhuo Youcai daughter-in-law!

"Yes, take it out quickly."

"The silver is hidden and kept warm, but it's not yours! Go to Puguang County and file a complaint, and you'll have to give it back!"

"How dare you! I am the county magistrate, how can I allow you to frame me here! Come on! Beat them! Fifty lashes! Immediately! Right now!"

County Magistrate Tang roared, and the man who had just spoken was frightened and almost fell to his knees.

Although they are not in the main hall at this time, the majesty of the officials is still there!

He looked around nervously, then looked out the door.

I stuttered a little and didn't know how to avoid being dragged out.

The whole room fell into an eerie silence. Everyone in the room was afraid of being implicated, so no one dared to speak.

The man who was speaking was nervous for a long time, but no executioner came.

"Someone come! Someone come! Are they all dead?!"

In the past, when he shouted like this, one or two people would come in with limping legs. Why is it that no one came today?

"How can this be possible! Someone come! Someone come!"

County Magistrate Tang stood up anxiously and looked outside the door.

However, his boots were held tightly by someone and the room was crowded with people, so he couldn't get out.

The scene fell into an awkward situation.

"Master, there is no need to scare me. Since you are unwilling to take out the silver, I will go to Puguang County to file a complaint now!"

Her mother said that this corrupt official must be afraid of this trick!

"Yes, sister, we support you! Come on, I'll pay for the ride and take you there!" The man who was almost dragged out and beaten was still sweating all over. If he saw a chance to get away, he had to run!

He just didn't believe that the county magistrate could catch him and stop him from running away!

"Girl, this is the dry food I just bought for my grandson. Take it and eat it on the way!"

The status of the poor and the government is not equal.

When the weaker party is not treated fairly, it always arouses sympathy.

"Poor kid. Here, some eggs that were just boiled this morning. Not many, just two. Take them too."

Wang Cuihua: "Thank you, uncles, aunts, and neighbors! I believe that the officials of Puguang County will give me justice!"

She collected her things, said this and strode out the door!

"and many more!"

Wang Cuihua: Her mother’s general’s plan worked!

Wang Cuihua pretended not to hear and walked out.

County Magistrate Tang had no choice but to squeeze out. As he squeezed out, he said, "Wait a minute! There are wealthy families and talented families!"

"Master Tang, what else?"

"Why are you so impatient, kid?" County Magistrate Tang put on a scolding look as if he was teaching a junior a lesson.

Wang Cuihua: I have to be anxious. How can I not be anxious about getting the money?

She didn't say anything, and everyone in the room turned around and looked at Master Tang.

"I don't have enough staff here. As you saw just now, I called for people for a long time, but no one came in. How about this, I will personally check the latest documents issued by the higher-ups to see if there is any information about Zhuo Youcai."

He went to a room, closed the door, stayed there for a long time, and then pretended to have discovered a new world and came back: "Found it! Found it! I've actually arrived! Nine taels of silver! Nine taels of silver!"

He spread out his palm, showing several pieces of silver of different sizes.

The largest pieces of silver weigh two taels at most, and the rest are cut into various shapes as desired.

Everyone:......

What is this given by the government? It’s only during the day. At night, I thought it was just a pile of messy stones!

Wang Cuihua:......

This county magistrate is really a black-hearted person!

Only nine taels!

And this piece of messy silver is completely different from the fifty taels of silver she had received before!

It’s obvious at first glance that this isn’t money given by the higher-ups.

The compensation of fifty taels was only five taels given.

So, since nine taels of silver were given this time, does it mean that the county magistrate has ninety taels in his hand?

Wang Cuihua seems to have discovered the truth!
