Chapter 37
County Hall.
Fu Butou escorted Li Zhu and Liang Shi and the others, followed by Hong Xier, Wang Qi and other witnesses to the hall, while he went to the back hall to report the situation to Ruan County Magistrate.
While everyone was waiting, a policeman quickly brought Ping Niang to her. Liang Shi's nose was bruised and her face was swollen and covered in blood, and Ping Niang was not much better. She was also covered in scars and her face was bloodless. When they saw each other, they looked at each other The concern and sorrow could not be concealed in the eyes.Li Zhu was already angry when he saw her coming, but now when he saw someone coming, he only looked at Liang Shi, hiding his anger like a plague god, let alone getting angry.
"You stinky whore! I only wish I didn't kill your mistress, a pair of bastards. I, Li Zhu, will definitely kill you adulterous couple!" His front teeth were knocked out by Lu Tang, and his words leaked out. The words he yelled like this still sprayed blood foam.The arrester stepped forward and pressed him down, but he was still swearing. In the confusion, the magistrate Ruan came from the back hall, and the arrester Fu followed behind him. Seeing this situation, he shouted: "What are you arguing about?" It’s going to turn the world upside down!” Then he bowed to County Magistrate Ruan and said, “My lord, please.”
County Magistrate Ruan glanced at the situation in the hall, and said nothing. After sitting down, he opened the folding fan in his hand to fan the wind. Waiting for the arrest to subdue Li Zhu, the hall returned to silence. Everyone looked at the head of County Magistrate Ruan. Hold your breath and fall silent.
Catcher Fu: "Why are you just staring blankly at the lack of etiquette!"
"See Mr. Ruan." The people in the hall waited to salute him quickly, but County Magistrate Ruan didn't lift his eyelids, and said leisurely: "The quarrel is over?"
"My lord, my lord! You have to decide for me! This pair of adulterers cuckolded the villain, not to mention hurting the villain. Look at me and my brothers!" Li Zhu knelt first. Falling to the ground howling and crying, Pingniang was standing far away from him, her face was ashen ashes, her hands trembling uncontrollably.
Standing beside her, Hong Xi'er felt bad when she saw this scene. She knew that the relationship between the two might be true, but she had also heard that Li Zhu was addicted to alcohol and beat his wife. Inevitably, there was still some sympathy for Ping Niang.
"If you and Brother Shi haven't done anything, don't be afraid. Tell me what you have suffered." Hong Xier glanced at them. Liang Shi had been in contact with them for so many years in the street peddling in the town, so it could be seen He is an honest and responsible person, if he and Pingniang may fall in love because of sympathy, but it is impossible to be more afraid.
"The adults are the ones who decide for the little ones! You see, I was beaten by them."
Li Zhu and his brothers kept yelling, and the people watching outside the county government office were even more noisy.
County Magistrate Ruan was impatient and slapped the gavel.
"quiet."
The group was taken aback, and then gradually quieted down.
"You said that he had an affair with your wife, do you have evidence?" County Magistrate Ruan pointed at Liang Shi and asked Li Zhu.
"I saw it with my own eyes! I sell meat every day in the front door of the front shop. Today I forgot to bring my money bag, so I went home to pick it up. Who would want to open the courtyard door and see this couple hugging each other! If I come in a little later, I don't know what kind of dirty tricks they will do!" The more Li Zhu spoke, the more angry he was, and he glared fiercely at Liang Shi who was at the side.
County magistrate Ruan looked at Liang Shi when he saw that he didn't look like a liar.
"My lord, I didn't! Pingniang and I didn't have any transgressions. I saw that she was beaten by Li Zhu on weekdays. Today, the little girl peddling along the street happened to see Pingniang crying in the courtyard. After asking, she was beaten by Li Zhu again. Li Zhu was beaten and injured, my lord, you have learned from it!"
"You shameless bastard, I've seen with my own eyes that your hugs will be fake!"
"I... I feel sorry for Pingniang's situation, and I just want to comfort her and give her some medicine."
"Comfort? Hmph, if I didn't go back, you guys might have to comfort me on the bed!"
Liang Shi's face flushed red from his excitement, and he was speechless for a long time.
"Li Zhu." Pingniang said suddenly: "I'm going to be with your husband and wife anyway, what good will it do you if you humiliate me by pouring dirty water on me like this?"
"You whore! Didn't you cuckold me first, I would humiliate you?" Li Zhu raised his hand and wanted to call, but Hong Xi'er and the others hurried forward to stop her.
"Crack! Crack! Crack!" Magistrate Ruan patted the gavel three times in a row, and a yamen servant pressed Li Zhu down.
"Above the court, how can you allow me to make mistakes." He spoke unhurriedly, and his eyes drifted down to see the situation of the few of them in his eyes.
"Who are you?"
"Back to the adults, the younger one's name is Liang Shi, and he's a street trader."
"You said that you only sympathized with her being beaten and did not do anything beyond the rules, but she is Li's daughter-in-law. I'm afraid it's not good for you to call her by her first name like this." After the county magistrate Ruan finished speaking, Liang Shi's face Immediately turned pale, Li Zhu howled beside him: "My lord is wise! Please also immerse this pair of dogs and men in a pig cage and let the villain decide!"
County Magistrate Ruan waved his hand: "Wait a minute, Li Zhu, let me ask you, have you beaten your wife for a long time?"
Li Zhu choked when he heard the words, stumbled and said, "My lord, this, my mother-in-law is disobedient. It's hard for me to support my family. If I drink a little wine and get angry, I will hit him. Besides, I beat my own mother-in-law, and it's not against the law."
As soon as he said this, Hong Xier and Wang Qi in the hall frowned. He had heard that Li Zhu would go crazy after drinking, but he didn't expect that he thought so in his heart. After listening to Li Zhu muttering, He said in a strong voice: "Is there any man who doesn't beat his wife! The wife won't listen if she doesn't beat her."
Wang Qi couldn't bear to listen to it: "If I marry a daughter-in-law, I will never touch her with a finger. How can you beat someone for no reason when your daughter-in-law marries into your house to take care of you, eat and clothe you, and give birth to your children? What you did!"
Li Zhu glanced at "him" and snorted coldly: "Hmph! That's a kid who hasn't even grown hair yet. What do you know? A woman should be beaten. I'm not honest when I fight. The sky is turned upside down? How can there be a man who doesn't beat his wife?"
"If you fart your mother, I won't beat my wife." Catcher Fu couldn't listen any longer, after spitting on Li Zhu, he looked at Magistrate Ruan's expression.
Ruan County Magistrate could not help showing a hint of distaste on his otherwise plain face: "Vaste nonsense!"
Fu Quan was taken aback, and quickly cupped his hands: "My lord, I was also annoyed by this bastard's words for a while."
"I didn't mention you." County magistrate Ruan gave him a white look, and he was so shrewd at this moment.He said to Li Zhu in the hall: "Li Zhu, regardless of the cause of this matter, what is a woman who wants to be beaten? They are both born to their parents, and besides, she is the wife you are marrying, so you should treat her with respect and courtesy. You can beat and scold at will."
After Li Zhu was accused, he had to argue again, but County Magistrate Ruan pointed at Wang Qi.
"You young man is right. It is not easy for a wife to marry into your house to help you manage the housework. You should be considerate." Seeing this, Wang Qi quickly bowed to thank him, and the magistrate Ruan said to the crowd gathered outside: "You guys Also remember, respecting each other as guests and helping each other is the way for husbands and wives to get along, and never hurt others."
"Don't worry, my lord, we don't beat our wives! Only the most worthless men beat their wives!"
"That's right! Why is it that a man hits a woman!"
"This butcher Li is not a good person either. I have heard of him beating his wife every night."
"Bah! I hate men who beat their wives the most! Bastard!"
There was a burst of noise in the crowd, and I don't know who took the lead. One or two started, and then all men, women and children shouted loudly.Hong Xi'er raised her eyebrows and looked over for her reputation, and she saw Lu Tangyi in the crowd.
As soon as Lu Tang finished shouting first, he saw Hong Xier in the courtroom turned around to look around. The two looked at each other, Hong Xier suddenly smiled, Lu Tang's heart felt hot when he saw it, and he couldn't help shouting: " If I have a daughter-in-law, I will definitely put her on the tip of my heart as precious as an eyeball, and offer it like a jewel."
After she finished speaking, there was a sudden silence around her, and everyone turned their heads sideways. Although everyone was filled with righteous indignation, no one had said such nasty words. A diner who recognized her immediately laughed and said, "Oh! This is not the accountant Lu of Huanxi Inn. Well, who do you want to worry about?"
"Then who else is there? Is it the third lady standing in the hall?" The aunt who has something good to do followed suit. There are old people in the town who are good friends with the old shopkeeper and his wife. Of course, there are people who sincerely hope that Hong Xi'er has a good home. Quite a few, but the appearance of Lu Tangyi gave them a collective look, and now it seems that it is not bad.
"Hahahaha." The crowd burst into laughter. Lu Tang was originally angry at Li Zhu's beastly remarks, so he thought of coaxing the pressure of public opinion, but he didn't expect that he couldn't help but made a joke instead.
The blushing person forced himself to be calm, and Lu Tang coughed twice: "Ahem, don't make trouble!"
Hong Xi'er in the hall naturally heard the commotion outside, so many people booing would make her ears hot and blushing, she turned her head and didn't look out, but Wang Qi clearly saw the smile on the corner of her shopkeeper's mouth when she lowered her head .
Whoops?This is shy?
"quiet!"
County Magistrate Ruan patted the gavel again, and the bustle outside the hall stopped slightly.Everyone looked at the hall again. Lang Yuanyi, who was only standing behind Lu Tangyi, was surprised and then puzzled, and finally looked at Lu Tangyi with serious and deep eyes.
"Feel uncomfortable?"
Ruan Shuyue stood beside Lang Yuanyi, staring at people with her eyes, so she could see the change in her expression.
"The last time when Mr. Lu and shopkeeper Hong came to my house to help, they were also like this." The two stood at the outermost edge of the crowd, and Ruan Shuyue approached her slightly.When Lang Yuanyi heard this, his mind was moved, and he couldn't help but narrow his eyes slightly. Ruan Shuyue snorted when she saw this: "Hmph, my cousin and cousin are childhood sweethearts, and the two love each other, but men, it seems that they can't change their flirtism. , it’s just that some people have to keep their eyes open, and don’t be deceived by sweet words.”
Lang Yuanyi looked at Ruan Shuyue after hearing the words, is this lady okay?What the hell are you talking about? All of this?
Ruan Shuyue glanced at him, then resumed her calm tone and said, "I'm doing it for your own good, for the sake of saving me." Otherwise, someone will remind you.
"If you really want me, you should let me rest in the inn." Instead of bringing me here to show my face and fear.
After hearing this, Ruan Shuyue curled her lips and stopped talking, and turned to look at the lobby.
Lang Yuanyi was helpless, she could see that this eldest lady not only had a temper, but also seemed to be moody, otherwise she would have saved herself from going to court one moment, and forced herself and Tao Yi to come here to do something outside the court the next moment witness.Looking at her padded left foot and the struggling expression of the servant girl beside her, Lang Yuanyi shook his head, then turned to look at the lobby.
"Liang Shi, I'm asking you, do you have an affair with Mrs. Li?"
"My lord, my little one, Mrs. Li, absolutely did not do anything out of bounds!"
Then Li Zhu still opened his mouth, and County Magistrate Ruan slapped the gavel.
"Is the hall a witness?"
Hong Xier, Wang Qi, and two villagers who had been following onlookers saluted together.
"Treasurer Hong, what did you see?"
Hong Xi'er took a step forward and bowed his knees again, Wan Fu: "Returning to my lord, today the women are doing business in the inn, and suddenly they heard the sound of gongs on the street outside, and when they went out to check, they saw Liang Shi running forward and Li The butcher chased after him with a knife, and Minnv was frightened on the spot. It was my guy who planned to stop it to avoid a bloody disaster. Later, Li Zhu's brothers came and couldn't help but tie Liang Shi to Shentan. Minnv If you don't want to make a fuss, you stop it, and you want to ask your lord to make a decision. Who would have thought that Li Zhu would not listen and insult the women, and later smashed my shop, not to mention severely injured my fellows, if not At that time, some guests came to help, and they almost beat me to death!"
County magistrate Ruan frowned, and his tone became a little harsher: "Li Zhu, is what shopkeeper Hong said true?"
"She! She hit us too. Look at my brothers."
Wang Qi sternly said from the side: "You have the nerve to sue the villain first! You beat my family so cold that I couldn't get out of bed, and now there is no way to go to court!"
"That's right! We all saw it! Huanxi Inn has been smashed!"
The crowd became noisy again, and everyone testified in a hurry. The county magistrate Ruan patted the gavel again, and asked others: "I ask you, did you see that Mrs. Li had an affair with Liang Shi?"
The two shook their heads one after another, then bowed their hands and said, "My lord, we only went over when we heard the noise. When we went, we saw Li Zhu beating people. It is common for him to beat his wife, but this time he even blocked the salesman inside and beat us together." I felt curious, but after listening to it again, I realized that it seemed to be a rape."
"It means that you didn't see the two of you having an affair with your own eyes, did you?"
"It's an adult."
"My lord!" Li Zhu was listening more and more unfavorable to himself, and shouted repeatedly: "My lord! You are also a man, you should know the face of a man best, if I didn't really catch them hugging together, how could I Splash such dirty water on yourself!"
After hearing this, County Magistrate Ruan pondered for a while, although he was dissatisfied with Li Zhu's character, but his words were true, and then looked down at Liang Shi and the Li wife, both of them bowed their heads and remained silent.
"Liang Shi, I want to ask you, did you and Mrs. Li hug each other at that time?"
"I, I..." Liang Shi murmured, unable to speak, kneeling on the ground, his body began to tremble slightly.
County Magistrate Ruan slapped the gavel on seeing this: "Yes or not."
"Big, my lord..."
"My lord." Liang Shi was trembling and speechless, at this moment Ping Niang stepped forward and knelt down: "My lord, the women have something to say."
County magistrate Ruan glanced at Mrs. Li who suddenly spoke up, and said, "Speak."
"Since the woman married Li Zhu as his wife, for three whole years, he beat and scolded the woman frequently, and even drinking was unavoidable. I asked myself that I never did anything to offend the Li family. , and never dared to contradict him. The woman really doesn't know what she did wrong to make him beat and scold me like this. There is nothing between me and Liang Shi. I knew Liang Shi before I married Li Zhu. He is The shopkeeper often sells things in my natal town, and most people in the town know him, and the women have nothing to do with him, let alone have any personal relationship. If you want to say that we are acquainted, it is because Li Zhu beat me again that day. But I couldn't find any wound medicine, so it happened that Liang Shi came here to sell the goods, seeing that I was pitiful, he helped me buy some ointment, and he kindly helped me for the sake of the pity of the women, as for today." Ping Niang said, holding up her sleeves Pulling apart, the two snow-white arms were covered with bruises and scars, and there were even new wounds that had not healed from the old scars.
Everyone couldn't bear to see it, so they heard Pingniang continue: "I hardly have a piece of good skin on my body, it was all beaten by this Li Zhu, my lord doesn't believe that someone can take me to have a look."
County magistrate Ruan saw the injury on her arm and looked at her complexion. He knew that this person had lost both blood and blood. He must have suffered for a long time. He couldn't bear it at the moment, so he waved his hand and said, "Go ahead."
"My lord, what happened today is a matter of grief to me. Seeing Liang Shi, I couldn't help crying in his arms. Liang Shi only comforted me and sympathized with me. He didn't do anything else. We are absolutely innocent."
As she spoke, she kowtowed to the magistrate Ruan and said, "My lord, I will tell you that a woman like this can't survive a day. I am also a living person. I am not afraid of hardships and hardships every day, but he not only beats me and scolds me." Now you still openly humiliate me. After today, women will commit suicide, but before I die, I must prove my innocence. I, Sun Pingniang, have never done anything like cheating on my husband. Liang is innocent. I am sorry for him. I died for nothing else, Li Zhu, you killed me, even if I were a ghost, I would never let you go!"
The more Hong Xier listened, the more something was wrong, and sure enough, seeing that Pingniang finished speaking, she rushed towards the wooden pillars in the lobby.
"Don't!" The crowd first heard her mournful sternness and then saw someone suddenly stand up and slam into the beam, and they didn't have time to react for a while.
"Ms. Ping!"
The author has something to say: say a terrible thing, today is the last day of the holiday, and tomorrow I will go to work...
There is one more terrible thing, my saved manuscript is gone...I went to type hard

It was my guy who planned to stop it to avoid a bloody disaster. Later, Li Zhu's brothers came and couldn't help but tie Liang Shi to Shentan. Minnv If you don't want to make a fuss, you stop it, and you want to ask your lord to make a decision. Who would have thought that Li Zhu would not listen and insult the women, and later smashed my shop, not to mention severely injured my fellows, if not At that time, some guests came to help, and they almost beat me to death!"
County magistrate Ruan frowned, and his tone became a little harsher: "Li Zhu, is what shopkeeper Hong said true?"
"She! She hit us too. Look at my brothers."
Wang Qi sternly said from the side: "You have the nerve to sue the villain first! You beat my family so cold that I couldn't get out of bed, and now there is no way to go to court!"
"That's right! We all saw it! Huanxi Inn has been smashed!"
The crowd became noisy again, and everyone testified in a hurry. The county magistrate Ruan patted the gavel again, and asked others: "I ask you, did you see that Mrs. Li had an affair with Liang Shi?"
The two shook their heads one after another, then bowed their hands and said, "My lord, we only went over when we heard the noise. When we went, we saw Li Zhu beating people. It is common for him to beat his wife, but this time he even blocked the salesman inside and beat us together." I felt curious, but after listening to it again, I realized that it seemed to be a rape."
"It means that you didn't see the two of you having an affair with your own eyes, did you?"
"It's an adult."
"My lord!" Li Zhu was listening more and more unfavorable to himself, and shouted repeatedly: "My lord! You are also a man, you should know the face of a man best, if I didn't really catch them hugging together, how could I Splash such dirty water on yourself!"
After hearing this, County Magistrate Ruan pondered for a while, although he was dissatisfied with Li Zhu's character, but his words were true, and then looked down at Liang Shi and the Li wife, both of them bowed their heads and remained silent.
"Liang Shi, I want to ask you, did you and Mrs. Li hug each other at that time?"
"I, I..." Liang Shi murmured, unable to speak, kneeling on the ground, his body began to tremble slightly.
County Magistrate Ruan slapped the gavel on seeing this: "Yes or not."
"Big, my lord..."
"My lord." Liang Shi was trembling and speechless, at this moment Ping Niang stepped forward and knelt down: "My lord, the women have something to say."
County magistrate Ruan glanced at Mrs. Li who suddenly spoke up, and said, "Speak."
"Since the woman married Li Zhu as his wife, for three whole years, he beat and scolded the woman frequently, and even drinking was unavoidable. I asked myself that I never did anything to offend the Li family. , and never dared to contradict him. The woman really doesn't know what she did wrong to make him beat and scold me like this. There is nothing between me and Liang Shi. I knew Liang Shi before I married Li Zhu. He is The shopkeeper often sells things in my natal town, and most people in the town know him, and the women have nothing to do with him, let alone have any personal relationship. If you want to say that we are acquainted, it is because Li Zhu beat me again that day. But I couldn't find any wound medicine, so it happened that Liang Shi came here to sell the goods, seeing that I was pitiful, he helped me buy some ointment, and he kindly helped me for the sake of the pity of the women, as for today." Ping Niang said, holding up her sleeves Pulling apart, the two snow-white arms were covered with bruises and scars, and there were even new wounds that had not healed from the old scars.
Everyone couldn't bear to see it, so they heard Pingniang continue: "I hardly have a piece of good skin on my body, it was all beaten by this Li Zhu, my lord doesn't believe that someone can take me to have a look."
County magistrate Ruan saw the injury on her arm and looked at her complexion. He knew that this person had lost both blood and blood. He must have suffered for a long time. He couldn't bear it at the moment, so he waved his hand and said, "Go ahead."
"My lord, what happened today is a matter of grief to me. Seeing Liang Shi, I couldn't help crying in his arms. Liang Shi only comforted me and sympathized with me. He didn't do anything else. We are absolutely innocent."
As she spoke, she kowtowed to the magistrate Ruan and said, "My lord, I will tell you that a woman like this can't survive a day. I am also a living person. I am not afraid of hardships and hardships every day, but he not only beats me and scolds me." Now you still openly humiliate me. After today, women will commit suicide, but before I die, I must prove my innocence. I, Sun Pingniang, have never done anything like cheating on my husband. Liang is innocent. I am sorry for him. I died for nothing else, Li Zhu, you killed me, even if I were a ghost, I would never let you go!"
The more Hong Xier listened, the more something was wrong, and sure enough, seeing that Pingniang finished speaking, she rushed towards the wooden pillars in the lobby.
"Don't!" The crowd first heard her mournful sternness and then saw someone suddenly stand up and slam into the beam, and they didn't have time to react for a while.
"Ms. Ping!"
