Chapter 62： Meet the county magistrate

Chapter 62 Meeting with the County Magistrate

The group of people left the village in a grand way. They met several villagers on the road. Everyone dared to look at them from a distance and did not dare to step forward.

Dong Ze kept trying to communicate with Mianmian on the way, but Mianmian didn't say anything, and the child was still wilting when he arrived at the county government office.

County Magistrate Xie Yucheng hurried over after receiving the news. He held a portrait and compared it with the child for a long time. His eyes became brighter and brighter, "Yes! That's right! It should be right this time!"

Mianmian was so frightened by Xie Yucheng that she crawled into Jiang Ning's arms.

Jiang Ning was very embarrassed and said with an apologetic look: "Sir, the women really don't know that the Mao brothers are Mianmian's guards, otherwise I would not hide Mianmian."

"What Mao brothers?" Xie Yucheng finally turned his attention to Jiang Ning.

Dong Ze whispered in Xie Yucheng's ear for a while.

Xie Yucheng frowned and explained to Jiang Ning: "Those two people are not the guards of the Zhong family at all, but fake ones. Master Dong just tested Madam Jiang, Madam Jiang, don't be surprised."

Jiang Ning immediately let out a long sigh of relief, with a look of rejoicing, "It's okay if it's not, it's okay if it's not! Otherwise, the women wouldn't know what to do!"

Mianmian raised her little head and said seriously: "Don't be afraid, aunt, they are bad people! Bad people deserve to die!"

This was the first time Xie Yucheng and Dong Ze saw their child speak, and what he said was something like this.

The two men immediately darkened their faces.

Xie Yucheng ordered: "Check the details of those two people and see who they belong to. Be sure to give an explanation to the Zhong family."

As he spoke, Xie Yucheng continued to be persuasive, hoping that Mianmian would tell more useful information, but Mianmian continued to keep his mouth shut, saying nothing, and especially rejecting people other than Jiangning. This made it difficult for Xie Yucheng to handle.

Jiang Ning then coaxed: "Mianmian, this uncle can take you home, my aunt is going back too."

"Wow!" Mianmian burst into tears suddenly, frightening Xie Yucheng to death. "This, this, this, Mrs. Jiang, do you think this is okay? You can help take care of Mianmian for a few more days, and I will send her out when the Zhong family arrives. Mianmian will be brought back, don't worry, the Mao brothers are not good people, and they deserve to die, but they still have to be investigated, and I can only guarantee you that Qian will not die. "

Jiang Ning looked grateful, "A civilian woman has thanked you!"

Finally, Xie Yucheng sent several government officials to **** Jiang Ning and Mianmian back to the village in carriages.

As soon as the carriage entered the village, all the villagers were summoned, and even the village chief came forward.

Jiang Ning asked the yamen to send Mianmian back first, then turned around and went to the village with the others. He briefly talked about Mianmian's situation, "I knew from the beginning that the Mao brothers were not good people, but because they lived in the east of the village, there was no one around on weekdays. Going this way, by the time I received the news, everyone had already arrested the Mao brothers, so I didn't tell anything about the child, because I was afraid that if the Mao brothers ran away and came to arrest the child again.

I didn't expect that so much trouble would happen because of the Qian family. I just explained the situation to the county magistrate. The county magistrate has made it clear that the Mao brothers are not good people and that the Qian family will not pay with their lives. However, we still need to investigate until the investigation is clear. Then judge again. "

The villagers were all relieved to know that Qian would not be sentenced to death. They turned around and accused the Mao brothers of being useless. However, no one complained about Jiang Ning, and they were a little afraid of Jiang Ning because she talked to the county magistrate.

After the villagers watching the excitement dispersed, Old Yang and Yang Laosan rushed over from the west of the village and chased Jiang Ning to ask about Qian's affairs.

Jiang Ning said helplessly: "I don't know the specific sentence, but the county magistrate also believes that the Mao brothers are not good people. For the sake of the children, the sentence may be light." Old Yang opened his mouth and said with a blushing face: " My dear, I know you don’t get along with the Qian family, and I don’t like the Qian family, but after all, we are from the same village, can you try your best to help and put in a good word?"

“Don’t worry, Dad! I still have three unmarried sons and one unmarried daughter. Even if it’s for their sake, I won’t stand idly by.” Jiang Ning said lightly.

The big stone in Old Man Yang’s heart finally fell.

Jiang Ning couldn't bear to see that he seemed to have aged several years overnight, so he said: "Dad, if you and the third child want to build a house for others, you can talk to the villagers. It's not winter yet and there are no houses." You can earn a little more from farm work.”

Old man Yang nodded heavily, "You are serious! I will let the third child tell you."

After Jiang Ning returned, the officials' eyes lit up when they saw her, and they couldn't wait to ask: "Mrs. Jiang, how did you build this house in your house? We have just studied it for a long time, and no matter how we look at it, we feel that it is different from other houses. And is it painted with lime? It doesn’t look that big to me!”

“Besides, the floor tiles are also very unique. How much does it cost to build a room like this?” Another cadre asked eagerly.

Jiang Ning looked at them funny, "My father-in-law and my son built the house together. I haven't calculated it carefully yet. Will I let you know when I've done it?"

Several people nodded.

The older yamen officer said: "My name is Gao Yong, from Gaojiazhuang. Madam Jiang, must you have heard of me?"

Jiang Ning nodded slightly, "I've heard of it. It's right next door to Qianjiazhuang."

"That's right! Right there! My son is fifteen this year. We just got married. We are going to get married next year. I plan to build him a few new houses. It will definitely be more honorable if we can build it like this!" Gao Yong's eyes were on the house. Swirling around, unable to hide my envy.

When Jiang Ning heard this, he hurriedly said: "Hey! That's a big deal! There's no need to delay it. How about you guys drink some tea first? I'll go in and do the calculations, and come out to tell you?"

“Then I’ll trouble Madam Jiang!”

Jiang Ning quickly led Liu Ye into the house. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law calculated carefully for a long time and finally came up with a feasible price.

She came out of the house and saw a bunch of people waiting, so she hurriedly said: "I just calculated it with my daughter-in-law. In fact, it is really not expensive to build this house. Everyone can make adobe, but there are some things added to the adobe in my house. It’s more sophisticated and will be stronger than ordinary adobe, you should be able to tell this.”

Everyone nodded.

Jiang Ning smiled, "Also, the plaster for the walls, the roof tiles and the floor tiles are all made by ourselves. I heard that a piece of blue brick in town costs one penny, but we are not that expensive. The adobe brick costs three penny." "The price is expensive because of the ingredients added to it. You have to buy the materials from the seaside and calcine them, which is quite labor-intensive."

When everyone heard that the materials came from the seaside, they felt that Jiang Ning had suffered a loss.

Then Jiang Ning quoted the price of tiles, floor tiles and wall plaster. That is to say, wall plaster is more expensive and everyone else can accept it. However, although wall plaster is expensive, the effect is obvious. They are all government officials and have fixed prices. With a monthly salary, the conditions were much better than those of ordinary villagers. They immediately expressed their desire to repair their houses and all signed up with Jiang Ning.

After the government official left, Jiang Ning packed up his things and took Yang Erdan to the old house.
