Transmigrated into a corrupt female county magistrate, defied fate and changed her life in a deserte
Chapter 227 The Yuan Family
The person being pressed to the ground was an old man with white hair, and next to him was a disfigured old lady.
In the room where a child was crying, a young woman with blood at the corner of her mouth rushed out holding her five-year-old child, and knelt down in front of Song Jinshu and Xiang An to kowtow and admit her mistake.
"Please spare my life, my lords! My parents-in-law are just worried that I and my child will get hurt. Please, for their old age and frailty, let them go!"
The five-year-old child looked at this and that in confusion, with big tears on his face.
Seeing his mother kneeling down and kowtow, he also knelt down and cried.
This scene shocked and left everyone at a loss. Xiang An looked at Song Jinshu, knowing that she should be the one to handle this matter.
Song Jinshu sighed softly and asked in a questioning and affirmative tone, "You are relatives of the boss, right?"
The woman who was kowtowing froze when she saw this. She knew in her heart that what her husband did was against the will of heaven and he would be punished by the court sooner or later.
But this day came so quickly, and she was not ready yet!
"I...a common woman..."
The woman's face was hesitant and there was death in her eyes. She looked around and the next moment she was about to bump into the sharp stone.
Song Jinshu had noticed her abnormality a long time ago and hurriedly shouted, "Help!"
Song Ping'an kicked the man away and stopped him in time. The two elderly people rushed over crying and protected the mother and child.
"Yun Niang, you are confused! Man Man is still young, how can you bear to abandon him? If anyone has to die, let us two old immortals die!"
The scene was in chaos, and the noise made Song Jinshu's head almost explode.
She shouted angrily, "Stop crying! I'm here to investigate a case, not to play house with you!"
"If you are the family of the big boss, as long as your hands are clean, I will not wrongly accuse anyone!"
"Yunniang, right? You are the eldest boss's wife? Is this Manman your child?" Song Jinshu tried to speak in a gentle tone.
Yunniang hugged Yuan Man and cried. She had just thought wrongly. The child was still young. What would happen to him in the future without a mother?
Facing Song Jinshu's question, she hugged Yuan Man tightly and nodded lightly: "Yes!"
Song Jinshu breathed a sigh of relief. As long as they didn't commit suicide, everything would be fine.
Zhang Yi suddenly approached Song Jinshu and whispered, "Sir, there is a disabled man in the room. He got anxious and angry and fainted."
Song Jinshu was stunned and followed his gaze to another room where no one had ever appeared.
Yuan's mother noticed the two people's movements and crawled over on her knees: "You can't go in! You can't go in!"
"The government is investigating this case. If you dare to stop us, you will be committing an even greater crime!"
Xiang An frowned and ordered his men to lift the man up so that Song Jinshu could go into the house to check the situation.
Without any obstacles, Song Jinshu entered the house unimpeded and saw the situation inside.
A man about twenty years old had half of his body fallen off the bed, and there were bloodstains scattered around the bed.
He must have been in a hurry to get out of the house, but he had difficulty moving, so he became anxious and angry and vomited blood.
Song Jinshu reached out his hand to check his breath, and fortunately he was breathing.
"Ping An, carry him out!"
Song Ping'an nodded silently and carried the man on his shoulders. He frowned slightly. This man was too light!
After leaving the house, the Yuan family burst into tears again. Song Jinshu was too lazy to explain. He looked at Xiang An and pleaded, "After this incident, I'm afraid I can't go to the bandit's lair. Please help send these people to Jingyang County."
Xiang An didn't say much, but pointed to a few people who were escorting the family down the mountain.
Fortunately, he had prepared an extra carriage and stuffed the Yuan family into it.
Song Jinshu returned to his carriage. The twenty-year-old man was seriously injured. If he was not rescued in time, he would probably die on the way back to Jingyang County.
So she put Song Ping'an into her carriage.
"System? Is Xiao Liuzi here?"
The next moment, Xiaoliu mechanically said, "Host!"
Originally, Song Jinshu had no hope of calling Xiaoliu, but she didn't expect it to actually pay attention to her!
"Xiao Liu, do you have any magic medicine? This man is only breathing his last breath. If he's not treated in time, he'll die!"
"Didn't you ask me to accumulate merit before? Saving a life is such a great merit, you must be reluctant to give it up!"
"Can you please be flexible and let me buy a pill on credit? At least I can save his life!"
After she finished speaking, Song Jinshu waited for a long time without any response from Xiaoliu. She sighed in disappointment. She had tried her best. Let this man die!
Unexpectedly, the situation took a turn. Xiaoliu said in a mechanical voice, "Yes, but host, you need to give me ten merit points for free!"
"Uh..." Song Jinshu hesitated. Her merit points were closely related to her life.
She has accumulated a lot in the past three years, and the merit points on the progress bar have increased to thousands of points.
After working so diligently, she had only saved 15% and now 10% was gone. How was that different from asking for her life?
Xiao Liu seemed to know her concerns and said calmly, "This person is blessed with great fortune and will surely have an extraordinary future. If you save him, your merit will be equal to his."
Song Jinshu's eyes lit up. From what Xiaoliu said, could this child be the lucky child of this world?
This is a good opportunity to curry favor with someone!
"I agree!"
Suddenly, a golden elixir flashed in Song Jinshu's palm. It must be worth a lot of money!
"Won't I choke to death from indigestion if I eat this golden pill?"
However, Xiao Liu was so aloof that he deducted his merits, gave him the golden elixir, and then disappeared.
Song Jinshu could only put the golden elixir into the man's mouth with a nervous mood.
Unexpectedly, the golden elixir melted in his mouth and the man's complexion gradually returned to normal.
Song Jinshu breathed a sigh of relief, but looking at the system's pitiful 0.5% merit points, her heart was broken.
The man lying on the ground felt relaxed all over after taking the pill.
Even my numb legs felt a tingling sensation.
He vaguely heard a woman's voice, constantly complaining to him, her words implying that she had gone to great lengths to save him, and that he should repay her double in the future.
As the carriage slowly moved forward, Yuan Guannan closed his eyes as if they were weighed down by a thousand pounds.
At some point, snowflakes started falling from the sky. Song Jinshu sat in the car and was warm because of the heater.
She handed the hot water bottle that her third sister had given her when she left the car to the two people driving outside the car to keep them warm.
In the carriage following behind, the Yuan family members hugged each other, feeling uneasy.
Time passed quickly, and the two carriages stopped at the Jingyang County Government Office.
Because the Yuan family had not committed any crime, Song Jinshu did not lock them up in a dungeon like criminals.
Instead, he settled him in the servants' room in the backyard and asked someone to call a doctor for Yuan Guannan.
After the doctor examined the child, he said that everything was fine. The Yuan family felt relieved and wanted to find out the whereabouts of the boss.
But the guards guarding them were tight-lipped, so how could they reveal anything?
Here, Song Jinshu took Yuan Man's wooden carved toy down the dungeon and went straight to the cell where the boss was imprisoned.
The boss was huddled in a haystack to keep warm, and he didn't even notice Song Jinshu coming over.
"Boss, wake up! I've brought you something good!"
