The black-bellied peasant girl is reborn, and her weird relatives are mad

Someone recognized them; they were all shopkeepers of cloth shops in the eastern part of the county.

"County Magistrate Feng, we have all experienced what Manager Xu said. Please be discerning and give us justice and justice to the Li family workshop." The nine shopkeepers bowed deeply and refused to stand up for a long time.

Having stood under the dangerous wall for too long, they long for the day when someone will come forward and let them stand in the vast world where the sun shines.

Ye Sihui, who was standing to one side, flicked his sleeves and sneered, "You have really tried hard to harm me. All the competitors have banded together. I ask you, you said it was me, what evidence do you have? Physical evidence? Human evidence? Where is it?"

He was arrogant and calm, as if to say, "What can you do to me without any evidence?"

"We are all witnesses." The nine people were angry. They didn't expect this man to be so shameless and despicable.

Ye Sihui looked nonchalant, "I've already told you, it was you who thought my goods were too expensive and proposed to lower the price, I just didn't agree. I never thought you would unite to frame me, the world is going downhill and people's hearts are no longer the same as they used to be." He had a big smile on his face, and looked very proud of the fact that the nine people couldn't do anything to him.

"You, shameless..."

There was a stalemate in the hall, but Xun Qing had seen the situation clearly and knew they had won this round.

He tried to smooth things over, saying in a gentle voice, "My fellow shopkeepers, perhaps you were instigated by the villain. Now that the truth has been revealed, the head of the Ye family is generous and will not make a fuss about it. Please go back." Then, with a gloomy face, he rebuked Lu Zhaoxia and Li Changhe, "Li Changhe, the quality of your goods is not up to standard. Instead of thinking about how to improve, you frame your peers. This is shameful. Come on, beat each of you with 30 sticks and throw him out."

"Mr. Xun, since when have you had the final say in the county government?" Tang Zhongbai's face was as gloomy as water, his eyes were filled with anger, and he looked as if he was going to step forward and tear Xun Qing apart.

Xun Qing had never seen anyone scold him like this before. He curled his lips in disdain and said sarcastically, "Tang Juecao has such great power. The facts are in front of you. Do you still want to confuse right and wrong?"

Tang Zhongbai took a few steps forward and stood right in front of him, angrily saying, "You are the one who is confusing right and wrong."

Then his tone suddenly rose, "Xun Changli, everyone knows that Ye Sihui is your brother-in-law, and now everyone has pointed the finger at him. The interrogation has just begun, and you have convicted the Li family workshop. Do you think the people in the county are blind?"

"Yes, yes. Ye Sihui is a man of low character and does all kinds of evil things. He must be supporting him behind the scenes." The people in the hall were boiling with excitement, and they accused Xun Qing and Ye Sihui of being in collusion with each other.

Suddenly, the hall was filled with cursing and the place was in chaos.

Suddenly, a woman shouted loudly, "What they said doesn't count as evidence? Ye Sihui, you bastard, you still remember that on the first day of September, you and my husband were in my backyard and asked him to help poison the silk at Four Seasons Silk Shop. Have you not forgotten?"

The crowd made way for her, and some people whispered to each other, pointing out her identity, "Isn't this Mei Zhao, the sixth lady of the Wei family?"

"Yeah, I never thought that the Ye family would seek help from the Wei family in order to harm others."

"Why would Master Wei Liu help him?"

"Humph, birds of a feather."

The woman was about eighteen or nineteen years old, with a bulging belly. She was supported by a pretty maid, and behind her followed another maid holding a wooden box.

The woman had an angry look on her face, but she walked towards the lobby with a graceful figure and a dignified manner, neither humble nor arrogant.

She walked straight towards Ye Sihui and said, "Mr. Ye, you shouldn't have poisoned my younger brother. You made his whole body fester and he's still in a coma. He's the only male among the younger generation of my Mei family. If anything happens to him, I'll make you pay with your life." She pointed her white fingers at Ye Sihui's face.

"Sister-in-law, I'm afraid there is a misunderstanding between us."

"The misunderstanding is that I did not stop you in time that day, allowing you to do such a heinous thing."

She turned to look at Tang Zhongbai, ignoring Ye Sihui's defense, "Tang Juecao, I am the witness, and I also brought physical evidence. Meihua, bring the physical evidence."

Meihua opened the box and displayed the items inside to everyone, "This is silk cloth produced by the Li family workshop. Every year, the silk shop would order ten pieces in batches. The three remaining pieces from the last batch were poisoned. This poison is 'One Leaf in a Boat', which is unique to the Ye family. If you don't believe it, you can order someone to check. One of the pieces was made into an inner garment by my mother for my younger brother, which led to the little guy suffering this disaster. And the culprit of all this is him, the one with the surname Ye." Mei Zhao's tone was cold, and the anger in his eyes seemed to burn Ye Sihui into ashes.

At this time, Ye Sihui had long lost his earlier arrogance. The nine shopkeepers might frame him for their own interests, but the Sixth Lady of the Wei family was of noble status, and it was impossible for her to frame a nobody like him for a few pieces of cloth.

"If Magistrate Feng still doesn't believe it, should I let my husband come forward to explain?" Mei Zhao looked directly at Feng Nian with burning eyes.

Everyone in the hall looked at Magistrate Feng.

Feeling the gazes from all around, Feng Nian's heart choked. Even though he had been the county magistrate of Suanzao County for more than ten years, he did not dare to touch the power of the Wei family at all, because more than half of the county's taxes came from the Wei family.

"Of course I dare not use Young Master Wei Liu." His face darkened and he shouted at Ye Sihui: "There are witnesses and evidence, and you still don't admit it?"

Ye Sihui and the housekeeper fell to their knees, kowtowed and begged for mercy.

Mei Zhao shouted sternly: "Hurry up and take out the antidote."

"The antidote is at home." Ye Sihui kowtowed like crazy, fearing that he could not escape this disaster.

He cursed himself in his heart for being so unlucky. How did the poisoned silk cloth end up in the Mei family?

"Tang San, quickly go to the Ye family to get the antidote and send it directly to the Mei family to hand it over to the head of the Mei family." Tang Zhongbai felt relieved. The case was closed. This was his first case in Suanzao County, and he handled it perfectly.

When Mei Zhao got the news of the antidote, he was worried about his younger brother and hurried back to the Mei family.

Ye Sihui and his housekeeper were beaten with thirty sticks for framing their colleagues and disregarding other people's lives. They were sentenced to three years in prison, which was to be executed immediately.

Xun Qing was stripped of his position and demoted to a clerk, no longer having any real power, for allowing his relatives to act recklessly and harm the villagers.

There was jubilation in the hall; Zaoye Town would finally have some peace for a while.

Feng Nian announced on the spot that the Li family workshop in Zaoye Town was conscientious and responsible in its work, its products were of high quality and worthy of trust.

The seal on Li's workshop has been removed and it is open to welcome customers at any time.

The Li brothers cheered, and their days of anxiety were gone.

The innocence has been restored, and the guests who trusted Li's workshop and the weavers have finally been given an explanation.

Tang Zhongbai looked at Jiang Muxia in the hall. There was a smile in her warm and sunny eyes.

Helping the Li family is also helping her, as long as she is happy.

He smiled and nodded at her.

The crowd dispersed, the Li family gathered together, and the nine shopkeepers joined hands to apologize to Li Changhe.

Tang Zhongbai walked towards them.

Li Changhe bowed his hands in thanks, "Thank you Tang Juecao for seeking justice for the Li family workshop."

"Uncle Li, you are too polite. I am new here and will need your care in the future." Tang Zhongbai returned the greeting calmly.

"We are ashamed, ashamed to have embarrassed Tang Juecao." The nine shopkeepers looked ashamed and did not dare to accept Tang Zhongbai's greetings.

Li Changhe laughed heartily, "Everyone is being coerced. I hope we can have a pleasant cooperation in the future."

"Brother Li is very righteous. I hope we can have a pleasant cooperation in the future."
