A car accident, our family of three crossed

Zhou Huan looked around, nodded with satisfaction, and thanked the constable and the yamen runners: "Thank you very much."

The captain of the police and the bailiffs knew that they probably had something to say, so they tactfully gave them space.

"Manager Zhou, we are waiting for you outside in the corridor. Just call us if you need anything."

"Okay, thank you."

After the head constable and the yamen runners left, Mei bowed solemnly to Zhou Huan and said, "Thank you, Manager Zhou."

"No need to thank me between you and me." Zhou Huan reached out and helped her up. After she stood up straight, he let go of her hand, as if everything was so natural.

Zhou Yin brushed the dust off the table and benches, and after they sat down, he opened the food box he brought, took out the food and placed it on the table.

"I thought that Madam Mei wouldn't have any appetite at the moment, so I asked someone to prepare some light and refreshing side dishes and some clear porridge." After Zhou Yin finished speaking, he stood aside and acted as a wooden stake.

Mei looked at the porridge and side dishes on the table and was touched. She smiled at Zhou Yin and said, "Thank you for your trouble."

She really didn't have much appetite before, but looking at these side dishes and porridge, she felt hungry even though she hadn't eaten or drunk anything for the whole day.

Zhou Huan served her a small bowl of porridge, handed her the chopsticks, and said, "Eat it while it's hot!"

Mei took the chopsticks and hesitated for a moment. In fact, she felt a little embarrassed to eat alone in front of him.

Zhou Huan seemed to see through her thoughts, so he said, "Eat quickly! It's already evening, you probably haven't eaten all day, right?"

It's already evening? Unexpectedly, she has been in prison for a whole day.

"Eat first, and then tell me the details of the whole matter after eating."

Mei thought about it and decided not to be pretentious. She tucked her hair behind her ears and started eating.

Not to mention, the light porridge with side dishes is quite appetizing. She finished two bowls of porridge before stopping.

From the first moment he saw her, Zhou Huan noticed that her hair was loose. He waited until she was full before asking, "Why do you have your hair loose?"

Upon hearing this, Mei was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly and told him about Wan's trouble with her. At the same time, she also told him about the grudge between herself and Wan.

Today's incident was obviously the work of the Wan family.

Zhou Huan secretly took note that this Wan family member was indeed a member of the Wan family. They were equally arrogant, lawless, and disrespectful of the law.

The two talked about today's events for a while, and Zhou Huan said, "Don't worry about what happened outside. I will check it out and clear your name. But before that, you still have to stay here for a few days."

Zhou Huan knew that he had been in prison for too long and it was time to leave, so he stood up and said, "I'll take care of the bailiffs. You don't have to be afraid here. If there is anything, ask the bailiffs to pass on the message to me."

"I'm fine." Mei nodded. Since he came, she was no longer panicked or afraid.

She also believed that he would be able to do what he said, find out the facts for her, and make it clear to her that it didn't matter if she suffered a few days here.

To reassure her, Zhou Huan said to her before leaving: "Just stay here, I'll let Ru'er come to see you tomorrow morning."

Mei was touched and nodded, watching them leave the cell and walk towards the corridor.

"Captain Lu, thank you for your help today." After walking out of the corridor, Zhou Huan exchanged some polite words with the captain, and then the two walked out side by side.

Zhou Yin lagged behind the guards. He took out a silver ingot from his pocket and threw it to the guards, saying, "Please take good care of the person inside and don't let him suffer any injustice."

The yamen runner quickly caught the silver ingot. The heavy feel was very pleasing to the touch, and the yamen runner readily agreed, "Oh! Don't worry, I will take good care of it and will never let that person suffer any injustice here."

After leaving the county jail, it was already dark. Zhou Huan did not return home immediately, but went to Mei's house to find out what happened.

When the two bewildered maids beside Mei saw Zhou Huan, they seemed to have seen a savior and told him everything that had happened since Mei was imprisoned that day.

It turned out that just as Mrs. Mei was thrown into jail today, the shameless couple, Mr. and Mrs. Mei, came to make trouble.

As if he had received the news in advance, he insisted on guarding the property for his daughter and forced them, the servants, to hand over the house deeds and land deeds.

If it weren't for the loyalty and strong resistance of the maids and servants in the house, Master and Mrs. Mei might have succeeded. It's time to drive these servants out.

After Zhou Huan had a rough idea of ​​what was going on, he guessed that this matter was probably related to the Mei couple.

At the same time, he also admired the servants in this house who were loyal to their master.

After coming out of Mei's house, Zhou Huan ordered Zhou Yin to investigate the situation of the deceased's family and the real cause of death.

When he returned to the mansion, it was already late, but Zhou Ru had been waiting in the front yard. When she saw him coming back, she asked anxiously, "Dad, you're back? Have you helped to take care of Sister Mei's affairs? How is she? Has she been wronged in prison?"

Zhou Huan was somewhat helpless and speechless, "Why, you only care about your sister Mei and don't even care about your father?"

He flicked his daughter's forehead and continued, "Your father has been busy with this matter and hasn't had a hot meal yet!"

"Yes, yes, yes, Dad. I asked the kitchen to keep the food warm. I'll ask Xianghuan to bring it to you right away."

Xianghuan bowed, turned around and went to the big kitchen in the mansion, while Zhou Ru poured a cup of tea for her father in a flattering manner.

Zhou Huan took the tea and took a sip, then sat down and told her about Mei's situation in the prison, "Don't worry! Your sister Mei is fine for the time being. Your father has already arranged everything. No one will embarrass her in there. You can go see her tomorrow morning."

"Really? Dad, can I really go in and see her?" Zhou Ru was overjoyed when she heard that.

Even though she knew her father would help to take care of things and not let Sister Mei suffer in prison, she still wanted to see her. Only when she saw that she was really fine would she feel at ease.

"Then I'll wait for Sister Song to come tomorrow, and we'll go together."

They had originally agreed to visit Sister Mei at the county jail tomorrow. Zhou Ru had even made plans to not be able to wait for her father to come back. At that time, she would ask Shopkeeper Lu or Shopkeeper Liu for help to make arrangements, so that at least they could enter the county jail smoothly.

Zhou Huan nodded in agreement. With Song Ning around, he felt more at ease.
