The daily life of a farmer through farming

"This……"

Realizing his mistake, Bai Yu lowered his head in embarrassment and stopped talking. He just secretly glanced at his father Bai Qingfeng. He knew that he shouldn't have listened to his parents that day. Come and get the money.

At that time, it would be fine if you just handed over the money to the one-eyed dragon. He still has 50 taels of silver in his family.

Bai Shui looked at the father and son who had nothing to say, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and he sneered. Fortunately, he was still worried that the situation would be unfavorable to him. Seeing Bai Yu's appearance of courage but no IQ, he was really worrying too much.

Cyclops looked at the situation, and said quite wisely, "My lord, you see that Mr. Baiyu clearly knows the evidence in the little mouth, and he still doesn't admit it."

Zheng Luo took the contract handed over by the official. It was clearly written in black and white. The employer, Bai Yu, and the thug, the one-eyed dragon Luo San, looked at Bai Yu, "Bai Yu, do you have anything else to say?"

Bai Yu is the kind of person who doesn't hit the south wall and doesn't look back, his mouth is still very hard, "My lord, this paper contract can be copied by anyone, so let's judge the little one guilty, and the little one refuses to accept it."

After hearing this, Cyclops grinned, "Okay, maybe I, a tall and thick man, can learn this font. What about your family seal? Can I engrave one now?"

Bai Yu glared at the one-eyed dragon, and argued, "You, you are talking nonsense! You barbarian came to entrap us with my poor brother just because he liked our family's wealth and was jealous of us!"

"Don't make a noise in the courtroom, you will know if it's a mule or a horse coming up!" Zheng Luosui knocked on the Xingmu again, and then said to the officials below, "Bring witnesses up."

Bai Shui looked at the six people who were led into the courtroom by the officials, and he felt confident. It seemed that Qi Lu's work efficiency was not so high.

That day, he asked Qi Lu to find out in the theater the relevant personnel who had bought Bai Yu to assassinate Bai Shui that day according to Cyclops' confession on the night when he did not report to the officials.

Let's look at the courtroom, two prostitutes with heavy makeup, and four young men in plain clothes, all standing in the courtroom tremblingly.

The county magistrate Zheng Luo said to the witnesses in the courtroom, "The questions that I will interrogate you next will implicate others, and there is no room for falsehood, do you know?"

The few people below were afraid of Zheng Luo's official authority, and nodded to express their understanding.

Zheng Luo was the first to interrogate the two girls who were dressed in floral dresses and heavily made up to accompany the wine, "Okay, I want to ask you, have you ever served the people present?"

The two women glanced at everyone present, and finally fixed their eyes on Bai Yu and Cyclops.

A long-faced drinking girl said to Bai Yunuo, "Master Bai, I'm sorry for you, Xiaoqian. If Xiaoqian doesn't tell the truth, I will be in trouble with you."

Upon hearing this, Zheng Luo urged, "Answer my question honestly."

"Yes, yes, it's Mr. Baiyu and the one-eyed blind!" Because of Zheng Luo's roar, Xiaoqian, the girl accompanying the wine, almost couldn't cry, "My lord, I don't know what happened, I just remember That day I brought my younger sister to accompany them for a drink, and they even negotiated the price, and we sisters really don’t know anything about it!"

Among them, Xiaoqian's younger sister saw that her elder sister had said the same thing, so she followed suit, "My lord, I also heard that Mr. Baiyu said whose arm he had to hold to pay the Cyclops. It’s over, thanks to the big brothers from the theater who came to smooth things over later.”

The other four young men who were present all nodded and admitted that these four young men were doing odd jobs in the theatre. The other day they saw that the second generation ancestor Baiyu was going to cause trouble in the theatre, so they rushed to the rescue without stopping, afraid that the big man would In a moment of excitement, they smashed their store again.

Zheng Luo nodded, then turned to look at the Bai family father and son who had been silent all this time, "Didn't you say you don't know these three people? What do you say now that the physical evidence is there?"

"This..." Bai Qingfeng really didn't know how to defend himself. There was no one who watched the fun not to scold him. If he couldn't think of a good way at this time, the town might not be able to hold its head up in the future. Can no longer move to another place.

Then he glanced at his youngest son who had been waiting for his protection, and he had no choice but to scold his youngest son Bai Yu, "What a bastard, you actually turned your brains on your elder brother. Father, didn't father teach you?"

"Father, what are you talking about? Didn't you ask me to do this? What's the matter?" Bai Yu didn't understand Bai Qingfeng's tricks at all, her swollen face was full of foolishness, and she listened to Bai Qingfeng scolding herself in a daze.

"You bastard, you still want to blame your father for this matter. I'm going to clean up your prodigal son in front of Master Qingtian today!" After Bai Qingfeng finished speaking, he went to beat him Bai Yu, but there are officials to suppress it, so it's just a show.

"My lord, it is Bai who is not strict in discipline and has caused trouble to your lord. Bai will clean up the dog when he comes home."

Zheng Luo is also a smart person, and at the moment he knew that Bai Qingfeng was blaming him, throwing all the faults on his ignorant young son. On the indecent charge of murdering the parent and child.

Seeing that Bai Qingfeng was still talking, Zheng Luo waved his hands and said impatiently, "Okay, okay, you are not causing trouble for me, but your eldest son, to be honest, this Baiyu is not small , If you buy such things as murdering brother, you will be under confinement in Kyoto."

Bai Qingfeng was in a stalemate for a while, then turned his head and said to Bai Shui, "My son, this time it's father who didn't discipline your brother well and caused you trouble. Father is really sorry for your dead mother."

At first, Bai Shui didn't pay much attention to Bai Qingfeng's apology, but when he heard about the mother Bai Qingfeng mentioned, an unknown anger grew in his heart.

Bai Shui naturally knew how to deal with this old fox, and answered Bai Qingfeng with a slightly painful face, "Father doesn't have to say that, mother told my son long ago that everyone has their own destiny, mother met father like this, father met The same is true for Erniang, this is fate."

Bai Shui's words were like a bomb, waking up the onlookers outside the yamen court again. People talked about the hard times Bai Qingfeng had with his first wife in the town and the crimes he suffered. It makes people feel sorry for these two couples.

However, Bai Qingfeng didn't learn to cherish his wife Qi Ying who eloped with him from the frontier all the way. After doing business like a fish in water, his whole person changed. As a second bedroom, the family finally moved to Kyoto.

Bai Qingfeng was choked speechless by Bai Shui's words. The person he felt most guilty in his life was Bai Shui's own mother, Qi Ying. Now that he said these things from Bai Shui's mouth, he really didn't know how to refute them.

At the same time, he couldn't help being a little afraid of his weak son in front of him. How did his eldest son change from a silent scholar to an eloquent cook in this year?

"The past, let's just treat it as the past. How about we father and son start over from the beginning?" Bai Qingfeng became more afraid of his eldest son Baishui, and felt more distressed for his second son Baiyu. Now what he has to do is , Let Bai Shui say the words to forgive Bai Yu, so that Bai Yu can avoid being held accountable by the county magistrate.

However, Bai Shui didn't say these words, turned his head and ignored Bai Qingfeng, and said earnestly to the county magistrate, "My lord, Caomin is lucky to be spared from the disaster now, what if in the future? Caomin can't guarantee that they will be so lucky every time."

Zheng Luo nodded after hearing this, and then said to Bai Yu and the others, "Bai Yu, this matter is because you are a first-time offender, and I want you to sign a letter of guarantee here. If Bai Shui is in danger again in the future, you will be the number one suspect." .”

Hearing Zheng Luo's verdict, Bai Qingfeng couldn't help being overjoyed. His second son was lucky enough to be spared from prison, so he immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed, muttering, "Thank you Lord Qingtian, thank you Qingtian sir."

But before Zheng Luo finished speaking, he ignored Bai Qingfeng's flattering words, and continued, "The crime of buying murder and murdering your brother is really bad. You Baiyu can be exempted from death, but you cannot escape life."

Zheng Luo's words finally made the scene quiet, and even Bai Qingfeng, whose forehead was bleeding, sat on the ground, waiting for Zheng Luo's sentence.

"My judge now makes the verdict as follows: Bai Yu buys the murderer and kills his brother. The convict will be released after half a year of hard labor in Hong Kong. Before the release, he will have to pay a hundred bucks, and he will be executed immediately!" After Zheng Luo finished speaking, he threw a token on the ground.

Where is the sinner's port?Presumably everyone present knew well that that place was specially used to detain criminals, and all the criminals there were criminals who committed crimes. Work hard.

In a short time, Bai Shui looked at a group of officials, lifted Baiyu up, ignored Baiyu's non-cooperation, and pushed him down on a small long chair, and one of the officials mercilessly pulled Baiyu's pants off.

Bai Shui saw that Bai Yu's face turned red "shua", and then his face immediately turned pale. It was because he was beaten by a big board. After a while, Bai Yu's roar like killing a pig drowned out the discussions of all the onlookers.

At this moment, an elderly woman rushed out of the spectator crowd outside the yamen, pretending to enter the court, but was stopped by the officer.

Bai Shui turned his head and happened to meet the eyes of the middle-aged woman. Although the middle-aged woman had reached her twilight years, she was still dressed decently, and her makeup was rare in this town. Added a little coquettishness, with arrogance in every gesture.

Relying on the original owner's memory, Bai Shui naturally knew that the middle-aged woman in front of him was Bai Qingfeng's concubine, Mrs. Liu.

Mrs. Liu is now outside the yamen, shouting Baiyu's name hoarsely, and also praying for the mercy of the county magistrate Zheng Luo, until all the hundred boards have been beaten.

The lawsuit finally ended with Baishui's victory. Baishui saw the officials dragging away Baiyu who had been knocked unconscious, so he wanted to leave the place of trouble with Qilu.

However, there were some things that he wanted to hide, but he just couldn't. Bai Shui watched Bai Qingfeng and his second wife, Mrs. Liu, walking towards him with a contemptuous smile on his lips, just looked at them and didn't speak.

Bai Qingfeng was obviously surprised by his eldest son's attitude towards him, and said with displeasure on his face, "In court, if you beg for your brother, he won't be so hard to do."

Bai Shui couldn't hide the smile on his face when he heard this, and retorted, "I beg for mercy? Who pleaded for me back then? If my father could use half of the love he has for his second younger brother on me, this kind of thing wouldn't have happened. "

"How do you talk, kid? Are you talking to your father like this?" Liu showed her usual tricks and belittled Bai Shui in front of Bai Qingfeng.

Bai Shui sneered and glanced at Mrs. Liu, whose eyes were red and swollen from crying, and said coldly, "It's your turn to care how I talk to my father?"

"You..." It was the first time that Liu Shi saw Bai Shui so unafraid of himself. In order to maintain his image in front of Bai Qingfeng, he pretended to be wronged and said to Bai Qingfeng, "Master, you see, this is your good son."

"Okay, don't say a few words, this is a family, why bother?" Bai Qingfeng thought that he hadn't got what he wanted, so he let Bai Shui speak sarcastically.

He still said with a loving father on his face, "I have worked hard on you during this time, but fortunately you have learned some cooking skills, so that you can live a prosperous life. Let me ask you, did you use the books left by your mother for your cooking skills?" ?”

"Book? What book?" Bai Shui pretended not to know.

Seeing this, Bai Qingfeng said, "It's your mother's dowry. That book contains many recipes for cooking. Now our family has Qianweixuan, and we are short of this book. If you have it, take it out."

"I do not have."

"You didn't, how did you know these cooking skills?" Bai Qingfeng still wanted to ask the bottom line in disbelief.

However, Qi Lu who was on the side took the conversation away, "Well, you Bai Qingfeng, you are still thinking about my junior sister's meal secret book. At the beginning they said that you married your junior sister because of that secret book. I still didn't believe it. Now I really believe it. You are a villain!"

"Junior Sister? Who are you Qi Ying?" Bai Qingfeng looked at Qi Lu's face very familiarly, but couldn't remember it for a while.
