Mind reading, taking the rental house through the whole village crying

Chapter 672: Poisonous Shredded Pork Noodles

Brother Mingxue is so good to her.

He's no different from his own brother, Jiang Fubao is extremely worried.

"Let's all go and have a look."

Except for the older Dong Wei and Jiang Shoujia who stayed to accompany him, everyone went.

Although Kong Yuanbao and Wan Xian spent the New Year at the Jiang family yesterday, the Kong family restaurant was not closed.

Unlike the Jiang family snack shop, the Kong family restaurant sells meals. Although many families in the city live better than those in the village, some cannot afford to support servants.

During the Chinese New Year, they want to eat something delicious but are too lazy to cook, so the whole family will go to a restaurant to eat the New Year’s Eve dinner, or they will buy a few dishes from the restaurant and have the waiter deliver them to their home.

It’s different with snack shops. New Year’s Eve is a time for family reunions, who would eat snacks?

On New Year's Eve, except for restaurants and food shops, most shops are closed.

The Kong family restaurant is very busy.

Fortunately, Kong Yuanbao hired a shopkeeper, otherwise he would not have been able to get away.

Along the way, Jiang Fubao was thinking about how to break this situation.

Therefore, she, who is usually very lively, now speaks less.

Meng Bujiu, who was walking beside her, saw the whole scene.

"Fubao, don't worry, it's okay. With me here, nothing will happen to the Kong family."

He lowered his head slightly and turned sideways to speak into Jiang Fubao's ear.

Meng Bujiu was very tall, and Jiang Fubao was young and not fully developed yet, so she only reached Meng Bujiu's chest.

Meng Bujiu's back was bent quite a bit before he could barely reach her shoulder level.

"No, Brother Bujiu, I know what you want to do, but you can't do this. You are now the magistrate of Qixi County. If you protect the Kong family in front of the people, the people may not dare to say anything, but I don't know what they will say about you in private. If it doesn't get out of hand, it's fine. At worst, you will be arrested and tortured.

That person will always tell the truth, but now it has become a big deal, and the people of the whole city are waiting for the outcome of this matter. If you protect the Kong family and arrest him in jail, even if you torture him and he tells the truth, when the court is held, the people will see the injuries on his body and will definitely have wild imaginations and all kinds of conspiracy theories will come out..."

Jiang Fubao raised his head and replied to Meng Bujiu in the same low voice.

Her pace slowed down a bit, and she instantly distanced herself from the Jiang and Meng families who were walking in front of her.

The two grew up together, and Jiang Fubao knew what Meng Bujiu wanted to do with just one word.

I guess they will catch the man who caused the trouble, put him in jail and punish him to force out the truth.

But what time is it now? It's noon, and things have already gotten out of hand.

If there was a better way, she didn't want Meng Bujiu to give others a chance to criticize her.

If Meng Bujiu wanted to enter the officialdom smoothly, everything would go smoothly.

You should never do anything that will damage your reputation.

This is actively giving the enemy an advantage.

"Don't worry, Fubao. I know what I'm doing. You have to know that some punishments won't leave any scars, which is enough to make him relax."

A hint of ruthlessness suddenly flashed in Meng Bujiu's eyes.

Jiang Fubao rarely saw this kind of expression on his face.

Sure enough, things are different after becoming an official.

The temperament has changed.

In the past, Brother Bujiu was always gentle and never got angry in front of her.

He doesn't like to laugh, but the corners of his mouth are always raised.

It's not like now, his face is cold, as if he is going to slam the gavel at any second.

But it’s better this way. If an official is too kind and gentle, he will be bullied by others. An official must have dignity in order to intimidate the people and subordinates.

Just as she said just now, if the troublemaker had not carried her mother's coffin to Kong's restaurant and made a big deal out of it, she would actually support her brother Bujiu in torturing him.

But that person is very smart.

Now she could only think of other ways to help the Kong family escape.

Both she and Meng Bujiu believed that the Kong family was wronged.

So does everyone else.

"Mom, mom, you died so tragically!"

"My poor grandmother, you are gone like this, leaving us all alone. What shall we do?"

"Mother, I am an unfilial son. You were killed by this traitor. I cannot help you. Please open your eyes, God, and punish the evil and encourage the good for me."

"Wow, wow, wow, grandma, please get up quickly, grandma."

"You beasts, a bunch of beasts, my wife was clearly killed by you, but you refuse to admit it. Everyone, take a look, the coroner said that my wife was poisoned to death. If yesterday was not New Year's Eve, and my family was kind and didn't want to drag the coffin here to bother everyone and bring bad luck to everyone, would we have come here today?

But in this world, good people never live long, and good people never get good rewards! ! You, Kongjia Restaurant, killed my wife, and the evidence is irrefutable, but you refuse to admit it. You black-hearted merchants, in order to make money, your hearts are black, black! ! "

"Everyone, don't come to Kong's Restaurant to eat in the future. Be careful, you may be the next one to die. Today it's my mother, tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow, who will it be? It could be anyone in the crowd!

"Mother, I will definitely seek justice for you. Even if the county magistrate comes, I am not afraid. I am justified! My mother was killed by the pork noodles from your Kong Family Restaurant. If the pork noodles were not poisonous, how could they kill people?"

"..."

Before he even got there, Jiang Fubao heard a commotion coming from Kong's Restaurant.

What I saw was countless people crowded in the middle of the alley.

This is the territory of Kong Family Restaurant.

Jiang Fubao sneered.

Judging from the voices, the people causing the trouble are quite good at manipulating people's minds.

After a few words, the people who were originally watching the fun also started to shout.

If they continue talking, I am afraid that these people will attack the Kong family.

"Are you sure your mother ate the shredded pork noodles?"

A cold and somewhat childish voice came from outside the crowd.

Zhou Kui, who was speaking passionately to the people, turned his head and looked.

Two officers led the way, and the crowd made way for Jiang Fubao and his group.

Jiang Fubao and Meng Bujiu walked in.

The people who knew Meng Bujiu immediately knelt down and saluted.

Of course, there were also those who did not kneel, because they had made great achievements.

These are the scholars, farmers, merchants and artisans.

An official always stands at the top of the pyramid, even if he is just a small county magistrate.

What's more, the prefect is also here.

The Zhou family members who were causing trouble were so frightened when they saw the county magistrate and the prefect coming that they trembled for a moment. But when they saw the coffin in front of them, they became righteous again.

After the ceremony, everyone stood up.

He turned his eyes to Jiang Fubao who had just spoken.

"Are you sure your mother ate shredded pork noodles?" Jiang Fubao asked again.

"Of course, if my mother didn't eat the shredded pork noodles, how could she be poisoned?" said the eldest brother Zhou Jinsuo, raising his head.

His eyes narrowed slightly.

I always feel like I've seen the girl talking in front of me somewhere before.

I can’t remember.
