Farming: I dressed up as a widow and beat my parents-in-law violently

Not long after the scholar entered Shuangqiao Town, Cui Siniu also arrived at the city gate. She was sweating profusely and went straight to the condiment shop. The younger daughter-in-law was not feeling well and clamored for brown sugar eggs.

It was supposed to be the younger son’s purchase.

But because he was accompanying Lifang back to her parents' home, he accidentally fell down on the road and his ankles became swollen, so he bought it himself.

Of the three daughters-in-law, only the younger daughter-in-law’s belly is a bit angry.

Cui Siniu naturally had to pamper her for the sake of her eldest grandson.

After buying the brown sugar, she simply went to the butcher shop to buy some fat pork. The lard at home was used too extravagantly during the New Year, and there was not much left. After buying it, she carried the bamboo basket and left the butcher shop. .

When I walked to the busy street, I bumped into a scholar.

When the scholar saw Cui Siniu's face, he subconsciously let go of the gift in his hand. His face was stiff, his fingertips were trembling, and time seemed to stand still for a few seconds.

"Ouch, it hurts so much. You don't have any eyes? You hit me directly. If it weren't for the Chinese New Year, I would have to ask you to pay for it!"

Cui Siniu rubbed her arms and cursed, not noticing the expression of the scholar opposite her at all.

Just as she was about to leave, the scholar grabbed her.

"You, you! You liar! How dare you sell poisonous flower cakes, and you still want to run away! God is wise, and I finally caught you!"

The scholar's name is Chen Jinyan. He is the only son in the family. His father died of illness when he was young. He was raised by his old mother doing embroidery work and she also allowed him to study. After buying flower cakes from Cui Siniu last year, he couldn't wait to brought flower cakes home.

In order to give his mother a taste, he handed the first piece to his mother. Unexpectedly, although her mother swallowed the flower cake, she looked sad.

It's a waste of money to say that you spend money to buy this disgusting thing.

Chen Jinyan was very surprised. He had obviously eaten flower cakes before.

It's delicious. Why did you say it tastes bad?

With doubts, Chen Jinyan put the remaining half piece that his mother had eaten to his mouth and took a bite.

"Bah, bah, bah, what the hell is this? Mom, I was deceived. Just wait, I'll go find them."

Chen Jinyan was furious.

Although the flower cake in his hand was not bought for half a tael of silver, it was not cheap either. It cost a full fifty taels of silver. He also bought two bags. My mother only made more than ten taels of silver after she embroidered a handkerchief. Such a lot of money was enough for my mother. How many nights.

Although he earned the money from copying books.

Can....

Chen Jinyan felt extremely guilty when he thought of his mother's eyes that were clouded and blurred because she wanted to do more embroidery work to earn money for him to study.

His original intention was just to give his mother a taste of this new thing, but he ended up wasting his money.

He took the remaining flower cake and ran out in a hurry.

After a while, I arrived at the place where I had just purchased the flower cakes, but the couple had long since disappeared.

Not only that, there are many people here looking for the couple, all of whom want to return the goods after finding out that they were deceived.

Returning disappointed, Chen Jinyan wanted to throw away the flower cake, but while he was reading, his mother ate the unpalatable flower cake for dinner.

She had vomiting and diarrhea at night, so Chen Jinyan went to see a doctor.

However, all the doctors were invited away by other families.

After he searched all the pharmacies in the town, he finally hired a traveling doctor.

He was a half-baked practitioner, and the medicine he prescribed was very strong.

Chen Jinyan's mother was not in good health and had a hidden illness. After one night, she became dehydrated, vomited blood, and died on the third day.

After Chen Jinyan finished the funeral for his mother, he found out that the people who bought flower cakes with him all had the same symptoms, vomiting and diarrhea. They ate less, so they took medicine and were cured in two days.

Chen Jinyan reported it to the official because Cui Siniu and his wife were not from the county, and the county official was very perfunctory in handling the case.

So the matter was dropped.

Today is the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, and Chen Jinyan brought New Year greetings to his late father's friend's home.

I bumped into the woman selling flower cakes on the street.

His hands were shaking in shock, so he grabbed Cui Siniu and went to the county government office.

They don’t even want anything on the ground.

"Let go, little beast, why are you holding me back? Who lied to you? I have never sold any flower cakes. Let go, someone is coming to rob me -"

Cui Siniu had long forgotten who Chen Jinyan was, but she heard him say that he sold poisonous flower cakes.

Still too frightened, she tried to break free from Chen Jinyan's hand and run away.

However, although Chen Jinyan is a weak scholar, he is very energetic.

Facing his mother-killing enemy, his hands holding Cui Siniu's clothes were like locks, holding them tightly.

"What's going on? Let's go outside and take a look."

Outside the county government office, the movements of Cui Siniu and Chen Jinyan disturbed Zuo Li.

He picked up his saber and led his brothers out.

"Ouch, Mr. Official Officer, please save the civilian woman. This little beast has a bad mind. He didn't even apologize when he bumped into me on the street. He also wanted to blackmail me and say that I lied to him. Mr. Qingtian testified. , a commoner woman has never seen this little beast at all, you are out of your mind, you dare to pester me in broad daylight, I think you just want to extort my money!"

Cui Siniu saw the official official.

Crying and howling.

He took the first step to falsely accuse Chen Jinyan of being a liar.

"I am Chen Tongsheng from Anning Town, Pingdu County. Last winter, this person and her husband sold flower cakes in Anning Town, pretending to be flower cakes from Yan's Pastry Shop at a low price of 50 yuan, because I have friends in Shuangqiao Town. When I was a guest, I ate Yan’s flower cakes and thought they tasted very good, so I bought two bags believing them to be real. However, when I got home, I found that the flower cakes sold by this woman were almost inedible, so I went back to look for her, but I didn’t expect This woman ran away a long time ago, and not only that, many people found out that they had been deceived and returned to the same place to look for her."

Chen Jinyan stood upright. He was not aroused by Cui Siniu's false accusations and panicked.

Instead, he explained everything to Zuo Li in an orderly manner.

"I came back with disappointment. My mother secretly ate these flower cakes because she was sorry for the 100 yuan. She vomited and had diarrhea at night, and even started to vomit blood later. She died on the third day. Not only my mother, but anyone who bought it The people who bought the flower cakes sold by this woman all had vomiting and diarrhea with the same symptoms. I hurriedly reported it to the police, but because this woman was cunning and not from Anning Town, she was never caught. You can go to the county government office in Anning Town to inquire. Today I was paying New Year greetings to my friend’s house and I happened to bump into her, so I grabbed her and came to the county government office. Please let the government office make the decision. She killed my mother and sold her to the county government office. This poisonous flower cake is worthy of death!"

Chen Jinyan let go of Cui Siniu's hands, saluted and bowed to Zuo Li.

Scholars are all arrogant, but he is also a child.

So there is no need to kneel down to rankless officials.

Bowing is enough to prove his sincerity.

Cui Siniu was so frightened that her legs went weak. She did not expect that the scholar next to her would say that the flower cake she sold killed his mother.
