After entering the book, the young cannon fodder brought his short-lived mother to fly happily

Fan He touched his nose, his expression indifferent: "Her husband is indeed missing. As the head of the village, I can't let go of any suspicious points!"

Meng Yu became even angrier. When this person wanted to take advantage of her, he acted so kind and amiable, and now he was pretending to be so selfless.

She was angry: "That bad pig butcher followed my mother with bad intentions, and he also let the people in the village spread rumors, forcing my mother to hit her head against the wall and commit suicide. I finally saved her. Don't you know about this, Grandpa Lizheng?"

The onlookers were silent for a moment, it turned out that there really was something going on.

"I know, but coincidentally, you and your daughter left the village and came to town the next day, so this is also a reasonable suspicion."

Meng Yu was still holding Li's collar tightly to prevent her from rushing over and hurting Zhao Susu. He turned his gaze to the crowd and said, "Do you know Cao the butcher who sells meat in town?"

Butcher Cao, they knew him very well.

Who wouldn’t buy some meat to eat?

"My mother is not blind, would she fall in love with such an ugly man? Would she run away with him?"

Children's words are careless, but they make sense.

The onlookers thought, what kind of person is Cao the Butcher? He is ugly and fierce, and later he lost one eye.

Look at Miss Zhao again. She is like a flower bud. Although she has a child of three or four years old, she is pretty and has a good figure. She wouldn't be so pessimistic, right?

"The butcher's family is rich, and everyone in the village believes him instead of my mother. My mother had no choice but to go to town to find a job. Who knows when the butcher will disappear? What does it have to do with my mother?"

Li burst into tears: "My Lord, please judge for yourself. She just said that her family is poor. How can she afford to open a shop in town? The money to open this shop must have been given by my husband."

"As the saying goes, a virtuous woman is afraid of a clinging man. My husband has long had his eyes on her and wanted her to be his concubine. She refused at the time. If my husband had given her money to open a shop, would she still refuse?"

"You all need to open your eyes. With such a seductive woman here, you never know when your husband might be seduced away..."

Li cried so loudly that some people actually believed her.

The discussions began to speculate maliciously.

The head of the pavilion frowned. He had just observed that Zhao Susu's expression showed surprise, fear, and anger, but she did not feel guilty.

However, a person missing for such a long time, whether he is alive or dead, may very well be a matter of life and death. As the head of the pavilion, he has to handle the matter with caution.

The county magistrate has said that a murder case in the jurisdiction is a serious matter. If it is delayed and not handled, all the people under his jurisdiction will be punished!

"There are indeed doubts about this matter. Take him away for questioning!"

Meng Yu was anxious: "Where is the doubt? This shop is not owned by my mother, she is just the shopkeeper!"

"Are you kidding? I went to this shop a few days ago and the young lady was so taciturn that she couldn't answer a single question I asked her. Who would hire a shopkeeper like that?"

"Yes, yes, unless it's your own shop. Who would want a shopkeeper like that? Do you want to lose money?"

"They said children don't lie, look, this is a lie!"

"Maybe the child doesn't know. We adults can see through this kind of trick at a glance. She is so young, what does she know?"

Li got up from the ground.

Meng Yu quickly grabbed her clothes again to prevent her from rushing towards Zhao Susu.

Zhao Susu's whole body was shaking, her face flushed and then pale, then pale and then flushed, she was filled with shame and anger. So many strange eyes, so many malicious words, were like knives, stabbing her full of holes, and she could hardly bear it.

But she didn't run away.

Ayu was speaking for her, and as a mother, she couldn't escape no matter how scared she was.

Seeing that Li's hand was about to grab Meng Yu's face, she hurriedly stepped forward, pushed the ferocious Li to the ground, and pulled Meng Yu behind her.

Meng Yu looked at the clerk who was about to step forward and shouted, "Uncle Pavilion Chief, if you take her away without any evidence, how can she do business in the future?"

The head of the pavilion looked at Meng Yu again.

How old is this child?

Three? Four?

She is so articulate, quick-witted and speaks logically. She is much smarter than ordinary children.

But he didn't take it seriously: "After a trial, everything will be clear. She must explain clearly where she got the money to open the shop, and why she came to the town the day after Cao Boping disappeared, and never went back."

"My mother is the shopkeeper, not the boss."

"Child, don't try to quibble in front of this pavilion chief. If your mother really wasn't the boss, why didn't she say it herself, and let you, a child, say it? She's obviously guilty!"

Meng Yu looked at Zhao Susu.

Zhao Susu met her encouraging eyes and said quickly: "I, I am the shopkeeper, not the boss!"

However, because of his stuttering, he seemed unconvincing.

The onlookers burst into laughter: "You are so timid and yet you still say you are not guilty!"

The head of the pavilion sneered: "Everyone has sharp eyes. Zhao, do you have anything else to say?" He waved his hand and said: "Take it away!"

"and many more!"

A clear but unhappy voice sounded outside the venue.

Everyone looked over and saw a group of people walking towards them.

The man in the lead was wearing official uniform and was followed by a group of officials in black robes. Beside him was a tall and handsome young man.

The headman's face changed drastically. This, this, this is actually the county magistrate?

He did not bother to say anything, and hurriedly pushed aside the crowd, went over to greet him, bowed respectfully, and bowed deeply: "Master Yang, why did you come to Baiwu Town? I didn't know, and I was unable to greet you from afar, please forgive me!"

Fan He also hurried over, bending his waist lower than the pavilion chief.

Ningshan County Magistrate Yang Zhiya glanced at him calmly and asked, "Why are you gathering here to make a commotion?"

The head of the pavilion pointed at Li and said, "This woman's husband is missing, and she accused this woman of kidnapping her husband. And the incident is indeed a bit of a coincidence, so I am handling this matter!"

Yang Zhiya glanced at the howling Li and Zhao Susu, who looked like a weak grass in the wind, and raised his eyebrows: "Tell me in detail!"

The head of the pavilion winked at Fan He.

Fan He hurried forward and explained the whole story.

Finally, he concluded: "As the head of the village, I have dealt with the dispute between Zhao and Cao Boping before. Cao Boping did like Zhao. Since Zhao's husband ran away with someone, she has been so poor that she can't even afford to eat. It is obviously impossible for her to have the money to open a shop in the town. Moreover, the day after Cao Boping disappeared, she went to the town and never returned to the village. If it is a coincidence, it is hard to believe!"

The young man said calmly: "Didn't she tell you that she was only the shopkeeper, not the boss?"

"She did say it, but there are many doubts about this matter. Zhao is not good at talking to people. It is hard to convince people that she is the shopkeeper. Which owner is so stupid and rich that he would hire a shopkeeper who is so clumsy and tongue-tied? Does he want to lose money?"
