Quick travel to save a miserable life
Chapter 50 The bride-to-be (8)
Before washing and resting, Lin Hui thought about it and went to Lin's father's yard.
Mr. Lin had not rested yet. He was looking at the account books in the study. When he saw his daughter coming at this time, he couldn't help but get up and asked with concern: "Huihui, are you feeling uncomfortable at this time when you come to find your father?"
"Dad, Doctor Lin just checked her pulse the day before yesterday. My daughter is in good health!" Lin Hui said angrily.
In the days since she came here, Lin Hui has truly felt Master Lin's care for her. Since she has taken on the responsibility of her original life, she should maintain proper relationships with the people related to her and be responsible for her life. Therefore, Lin Hui truly assumed the identity of the eldest lady of the Lin family and responded accordingly to Master Lin's care and love.
After hearing this, Mr. Lin couldn't help stroking his beard and smiled: "As long as it's okay, it'll be okay!"
Lin Hui stepped forward and said seriously: "Dad, my daughter has something to report to you!"
It was rare to see his daughter with such a serious expression. Mr. Lin only found it interesting. He sat back on the chair very cooperatively, straightened his body and asked, "What are you reporting? And tell the truth!"
After hearing that his daughter wanted to search the house, Mr. Lin was really stunned and his expression became solemn.
"Huihui, how did you think of doing this?"
The reason was that Lin Hui had already thought about it, that is, she had a nightmare at noon, dreaming that someone was going to harm her during childbirth.
Without conclusive evidence, Lin Hui could only say this, otherwise it would be difficult to explain how she knew there was something wrong with those people.
The original person has also had the experience of making unreasonable demands because of nightmares. Mr. Lin has always attached great importance to his daughter. Although he did not believe it, he still did as his daughter said.
Now it's just a search of the servants in his house, it doesn't involve too much, and Mr. Lin will definitely not object.
Sure enough, when Mr. Lin heard Lin Hui's reasons, he felt a bit dumbfounded, but his daughter was about to give birth and he was uneasy. In order to reassure his daughter, just checking on the servants was not a big deal.
Moreover, he also thought of his daughter's worries, fearing that there was someone really bad in the house, which would be detrimental to Lin Hui.
Therefore, not only did he not object, but he also sent someone to inform Steward Qi, asking him to follow the lady's instructions and do it with confidence and boldness.
Originally, Manager Qi was a little worried. This time the copy inspection was not approved by the master, so he felt a little uneasy. However, he could not disobey the young lady's wishes. Now it was better. The master had given him permission to do it, so there was nothing to be afraid of. Yes.
At the second watch, Manager Qi gathered eight servants and four wives to conduct inspections inside and outside the hospital at the same time.
Qi Guanshi and others first checked the folk remedies in several courtyards outside the courtyard. Sure enough, the harvest was not small. They caught a group of gamblers and several people who were supposed to be working at night but got together to drink. Qi Guanshi was all They were gagged and tied up, and then their homes were searched. As expected, a lot of suspicious property was found.
In the inner courtyard, four women led by Grandma Wang, led by them, searched all the servants' rooms, including Lin Hui and Mr. Lin's courtyard, and found something.
There was a third-class girl named Xue Liu in Lin Huiyuan who actually had a man's clothes in her cage. When they were dug out, her face changed drastically. When asked what was going on and who the clothes belonged to, she just covered her face and refused to cry. Be willing to speak.
There was also a little girl named Nianqiu who actually had a pair of pearl earrings belonging to Lin Hui in her bag. When they were found out, she was a little flustered, but she insisted that she picked them up on the ground. Everyone present scoffed: If only one It's just that they were picked up. How could they pick up a pair at the same time? Besides, this is the master's property, so even if you pick up one, you should hand it in.
Without anything to say, the two of them found an empty room and locked themselves up.
There was also something wrong in Mr. Lin's yard, because Mr. Lin was almost climbed into bed by a maid at home. It was quite embarrassing at that time, so later he no longer used those young maids in his yard, only boys.
The problem was that one of the boys who was cleaning the study actually found the special ink strips in Master Lin's study in his suitcase.
When he was discovered, he was panicked at first. When he could not refuse, he burst into tears and said that he had taken the ink stick in a moment of confusion and had not had time to actually sell it. He asked Mr. Lin to spare him for the sake of his usual diligence. one time.
Mr. Lin was quite surprised when he saw this, and then he thought that there were many valuables in his study. Whether they were pens, inks, paper, inkstones or antiques, they were almost all treasures. If he could steal the ink sticks this time, he would steal other important items next time. As for things, so he still had people pull him away.
In addition, there were two night watch ladies in the inner courtyard who were drinking while they were supposed to be on duty and were also captured.
The two teams worked hard for half the night, and they arrested nearly twenty people. They conducted preliminary interrogations separately and handed over their confessions to the master after dawn.
As for which master to give it to, the master or the lady? Manager Qi hesitated for a moment, but still chose to leave it to the young lady. After all, the young lady ordered this errand. Although the master later knew about it and made a statement, the young lady's wishes still prevailed.
Manager Qi made up his mind and chose to meet after breakfast and handed a stack of confessions to Lin Hui.
Lin Hui looked through it once and handed it to Mr. Lin next to him; "Dad, take a look!"
After looking at it carefully, Mr. Lin raised his head and asked Lin Hui, "How do Huihui think we should deal with these people?"
Lin Hui obviously already had an idea, so she said without thinking: "Those who violate the law will be sent to the officials to be dealt with according to the law. Those who violate the family rules will be dealt with according to the family rules first, and will be punished according to the severity of the case. The lighter ones will be dismissed from their jobs, and the more serious ones will be confiscated." The property will be sold by the person concerned, or if the situation is serious, the whole family will be sold.”
Then, before Master Lin could speak, Lin Hui turned to Li Gu next to him and said, "Also, sir, those two boys in your room dare to steal property. You don't have to cover up for them. Every transaction you make The expenditures are all for a purpose. How can there be such a large sum of money to reward them? They must be doing something secretly, and now they are begging you to cover it up. My husband, I know you are soft-hearted, but you cannot let them go easily. Just let them go. Sold, I’ll give you two good servants!”
Before Mr. Lin could speak, Li Gu beside him became anxious.
Before going to bed last night, several women suddenly came into the yard and said they wanted to search the servant's house, even the rooms of his two servants.
Since he went out secretly from time to time, he needed someone to cover his whereabouts. The two boys who served him had been bribed by him for more than a year, so they accumulated a lot of money.
All the money was dug out by the mother-in-law last night. Fortunately, he came out in time to speak, saying that because these two people served well, he usually rewarded them. Although the two people were not taken away, the money found was The amount was recorded.
Not that he didn't know, but when he calculated it, he was shocked. Even he didn't expect that the money he spent as a reward to these two boys would add up to more than a hundred taels after more than a year!
He got all this money from Lin Hui under various names!
Now that he heard Lin Hui say that he was going to sell them, Li Gu couldn't help but feel heartbroken. The two people who had finally been raised with money would be in vain if they were sold!
But he couldn't object verbally, otherwise it would be confirmed that he deceived Lin Hui and extorted money, and he also had to tell the reason why he frequently rewarded them. Can he say it? Does he dare to say it? No way!
So he had to force out a smile and said, "What Huihui said is that my husband is confused, so just do as you say!"
Mr. Lin nodded slightly: "Last night Huihui told me that we were going to inspect the house. I didn't think so. I didn't expect that after an inspection, there were so many problems. Fortunately, we checked them in time, otherwise..."
Li Gu was shocked when he heard this. He originally thought that last night's action was Master Lin's gesture, but he didn't expect that it was Lin Hui's idea.
He looked at Lin Hui with a guilty conscience, but found that her expression was as usual. Looking back on his recent performance, there should be no problem. Maybe he was overthinking, but why did Lin Hui think of going to the prosecutor's office? What's going on? Did she discover something?
