After Picking Up the Lucky Girl, the Whole Village Became Prosperous Chapter 102

 Yingbao was simply stunned.

Dad started fighting with Qian Jiu.

 No, it was my father who beat Qian Jiu unilaterally.

That Qian Jiu was beaten until his face was covered in blood, and Uncle Xu quickly dragged him into the house to clean him.

 Xu Qiuniang kept crying, but she didn't dare to come up and tear Jiang Sanlang and Chun Niang apart.

On the way back, Jiang Sanlang was carrying the twins in a bamboo basket, and Chun Niang was carrying Ying Bao. The five members of the family were silent.

 Halfway there, they met Jiang Cheng who came to pick them up.

“Third uncle, why is your hand broken?” Jiang Cheng asked.

 Jiang Sanlang then discovered that there was a cut on his hand, and the blood on it had dried.

Chunniang was very nervous and annoyed that she didn't realize that her husband's hand was broken. It was really inappropriate.

“It's okay, it's just a scratch on the skin.” Jiang Sanlang touched his hand and reassured his wife: “It's not my blood.”

Ying Bao also came over to check, and was relieved to see that his father was really fine.

 After returning home, Yingbao washed her hands and face and went back to the house to rest.

 It is expected that this old man will fight with Qian Jiu.

They had fought in the last life, and it was more intense than now. Qian Jiu had two of his teeth knocked out.

It is said that the Qian family and the Xu family discussed marriage many years ago, and the eldest girl Chun Niang was the one who agreed to Qian Jiu. But for some reason, Qian Jiu suddenly made a lifelong private engagement with the second girl, Xu Qiuniang.

So there was a story about sisters getting married. In the end, Xu Chunniang married Jiang Sanlang, a poor boy from Dongchen Village, and Xu Qiuniang, the second girl, married Qian Jiu, who came from a fairly well-off family.

Originally, this matter was due to Qian Jiu and Xu Qiuniang being dishonest, but they didn't think so. Instead, they were complacent and showed off in front of Chun Niang.

But since Chun Niang gave birth to twins, her life became better and better. The more Qian Jiu looked at his wife, the more he disliked her. He felt that she was not as good as Chun Niang in every aspect.

Because of this, Xu Qiuniang disliked seeing her eldest sister even more. She wished that her eldest sister would be stuck in a mud puddle all her life, unable to get up, and her life would be worse than hers.

 So this sisterly love may have been a little bit before getting married, but after getting married there is nothing left.

 As soon as the second day of the Lunar New Year passed, the Jiang family began to entertain relatives and friends from all walks of life who came to pay New Year's greetings.

 But none of this affects Yingbao and his younger brother.

Several boys in the family went to the village threshing floor to play football whenever they had free time. The twins were among them. Yingbao rode a deer to Chen Silang's house to see Chen Silang.

Chen Zhu could already sit up and was quite happy to see Ying Baolai. He called his son Xiaoyao to call him sister.

Yingbao checked his wound and saw that it was basically healed, so he nodded: "You can go to the ground and walk. Don't lie down all the time. It's not good for recovery."

 “Okay.” Chen Zhu already regarded this child as a real doctor and responded very respectfully.

Yingbao asked Tang next to her: "Grandma Tang, how have you been lately? Are you feeling dizzy?"

Tang laughed and said, "No, I'm fine now after taking your medicine. I used to feel dizzy and my hands and feet would be numb, but now I'm not numb anymore, and I can walk much more easily."

“Well, we need to keep it like this in the future. We must pay more attention to our daily diet. Don't eat rice porridge and sweets. We must also give up pickles. Move your legs and feet more. Don't sit for long periods of time. Stand up more slowly.”

Mrs. Wen said that many elderly people suffer strokes due to prolonged sitting or squatting.

 “Everyone listens to Ying Bao.” Tang Shi said with a smile.

After leaving the patriarch's house, Yingbao rode on the big deer and walked slowly to the threshing floor, where several boys from the Jiang family were playing football. She would go home with them later.

The fifteenth day of the first lunar month has passed in a flash.

Yingbao was about to tell her parents about going to the county town when she suddenly heard a noise in the yard.

When I went out to take a look, I saw two detectives carrying sticks and dragging their father Jiang Sanlang out.

Chunniang screamed: "Why are you arresting my husband?"

One of the detectives said: "Someone accused Jiang Sanlang of committing murder and wounding someone. The county captain ordered me to come and get the person! Anyone who is not involved should get out of the way!"

Ying Baobao ran out and said to Chun Niang: "Mom, let's follow!" She had to go to the county town with her father to see what was going on.     Dad was never arrested by the government in his last life.

Chunniang also reacted and hurriedly hitched the mule cart.

Sun Lizheng, who came with the police, saw that the Jiang family was in a panic, so he comforted him: "The county lieutenant is just taking people to ask questions. If your Sanlang has never done anything, he will be released soon."

Chunniang was not comforted at all, because she always remembered the scar on her husband's shoulder.

“Third brother and sister, you stay at home and take care of the children while I go.” Jiang Erlang was also a little panicked and quickly took the reins of the mule cart.

Mrs. Jiang Liu and Sister-in-law Jiang also advised Chun Niang: "It won't be a big deal if you go. It's better to let Erlang go."

Chunniang shook her head: "I must go, and I also asked my sister-in-law to help look after Xiaojie and Xiaowu." Her husband was arrested, how could she stay at home and wait for news?

"Me! And me!" Yingbao hugged her second uncle's calf, "I want to go!" She knew the newly appointed county magistrate, so she could say a word to him no matter what.

And this matter must be related to myself, and also to the Han family and the little Han family.

Jiang Erlang naturally knew what was going on, and also knew that his niece was rescued by the county magistrate, so it might be helpful to bring his niece with him, so he picked up Ying Bao and put it on the mule cart.

 Soon, Jiang Erlang drove his car and drove behind the government servant's car with his sister-in-law and niece.

 The mule cart entered the county town in the afternoon.

The police officer took Jiang Sanlang back to the Yamen and said to Jiang Erlang and others who were following him: "Tomorrow the high officials will hold a court trial. You can come to hear the trial tomorrow morning."

 “Thank you for letting me know, brother.”

Jiang Erlang thanked the policeman and took his sister-in-law and niece to the Gaojiadian Inn.

The innkeeper still remembered the little girl, registered her household registration, and took them upstairs.

 Early in the morning of the second day, Chun Niang and Ying Bao got up and went downstairs to wash up. They saw that their second uncle was already downstairs, with a graceful lady standing next to them.

The lady was holding a big tin pot in her hand and was pouring hot water for the second uncle.

“Sister Yanru.” Yingbao ran over, raised her neck and looked at her second uncle, and then at Yanru.

Today, Sister Yanru's makeup is very elegant and delicate. She looks like she has been dressed up carefully, but there is no trace of makeup. Anyway, she is very beautiful.

Yanru touched Yingbao's head and said with a smile: "Bao'er, I see you again, I'm very happy."

Ying Bao thought to herself that you were not happy to see me, but probably to see your second uncle happy.

"Why is Sister Yanru at the inn?" This Yanru is not a clerk at the inn, let alone helping in the inn, but she showed up here early in the morning and even brought hot water for washing for her second uncle. Mao Niyingbao didn't believe it at all.

Didn't you see that the innkeepers were all staying away from the two of them? The lady innkeeper must have told them something.

Yan Ru's face was stunned for a moment, she glanced at Jiang Erlang, and whispered: "Today, my uncle is out on business, and my aunt asked me to come to the inn to help."

Jiang Erlang was someone who had been here before. How could he not see that this lady was interested in him? He turned away and coughed lightly, "Yingbao, wash up quickly. We have to go to the Yamen."

Yingbao blinked, brushed his teeth and washed his face with his mother-in-law, and went to the latrine again.

When the three of them rushed outside the government hall, they saw two government servants sitting inside the gate of the government hall, looking at them lazily.

Yingbao jumped out of the mule cart and stood at the door of the government office, looking inside.

 I'm so excited! I didn't take a close look at the Yamen Court last time, but now I can sum it up in three words: old! break! old!

The yamen does not even have a gate. Although it has brick walls, its roof is thatched and is in a dilapidated state.

The stone cracks on the steps of the court hall are covered with weeds. Now the weeds are withered and yellow, making them look even more depressed.

“Second uncle, weasels!” Yingbao pointed at the small animals that ran away quickly and shouted: “Two of them!”

Jiang Erlang glanced at it, not surprised at all.

Although this is a county government office, except for the county magistrate and government officials, it is impossible for people to get close to this place unless they have something to do, let alone traders.

As time goes by, won't this place become deserted?

Moreover, the county magistrate is appointed for a term of three to four years and will leave at that time. Whoever has lost his mind will spend his own money to repair it.

As long as they can get shelter from the wind and rain, the magistrate and his family live in the back hall and courtyard.
