Chapter 143 Weighing the pros and cons
"Little girl, if you have saved enough money, you should leave here quickly. Those relatives in your family are simply wolves and tigers. Even if you hide this time, there will be a next time."

"Also, the master has already been bribed by them, you should try to be obedient, so that you can suffer less."

After speaking earnestly, the unhappiness seemed to be worried that Jiang Yao would not believe his words, so he whispered again.

"I also want to remind you because the food you make is delicious and my children eat happily every day. It's up to you whether you listen or not."

Can feel the kindness in the other party's words, Jiang Yao nodded obediently, and smiled sweetly at the other party, "Thank you, brother, I will seriously consider it."

After the short exchange, the other unhappiness who smashed things surrounded him, their eyes were like knives, and they shot Jiang Yao back and forth, as if they wanted to see Jiang Yao's tricks.

It's a pity that they are destined to find nothing,

Jiang Yao looked indifferent at the moment, the money and other valuables on her body had been secretly handed over to Lu Shi by Jiang Yao just now.

The clothes on her body are now only used to cover the body, and have no other wealth value at all.

It's just that no matter what they said, Jiang Yao kept a cold look and didn't answer anything.

Maybe it was because she was so boring, so the policemen asked a few more casual questions, but they still didn't get a reply, so they dragged her to the county government resentfully.

When they arrived at the court, Jiang Yao was still not given a chance to speak, so Mrs. Jiang and Jiang Xue'an directly took the initiative to testify, saying that Jiang Yao stunned them with drugs, and then stole the Jiang family's ancestral cooking secrets.

After listening to their words, the county magistrate looked at their fake evidence, slapped the gavel heavily, and looked at Jiang Yao with a tiger's face.

"There are all the witnesses and material evidence, Jiang Yao, can you recognize it?"

"No." Jiang Yao replied calmly, looking back at the county magistrate with cold eyes without avoiding.

Doesn't look scared of him at all.

This kind of cognition made the magistrate feel that his authority had been challenged, so he immediately lowered his face, looked fiercely at the yamen servants on both sides, and ordered sharply.

"Jiang Yao, a sinful girl, who stole something and refused to admit it, and even despised the official of the court, the crime is aggravated. Come here, beat her thirty slaps first, and the official wants to see how hard your bones are!"

As soon as the words fell to the ground, the two office servants stepped forward, one left and one right, and imprisoned Shen Yan, and pressed her to the ground mercilessly.

Even though Jiang Yao has been exercising regularly recently, she still can't resist the strength of two grown men, especially Lian Jiazi.

Within two strokes, Jiang Yao's whole body was tightly pressed to the ground, and the edge of her chin was worn out, but she endured it all the time, without crying out for pain.

Seeing her like this, the county magistrate felt even more unhappy and urged her impatiently.

"Hurry up! After beating me, I still have something to ask her!"

When the words fell to the ground, the yamen guards no longer dared to be slow, and immediately raised their water and fire sticks to hit Jiang Yao, and Jiang Yao was also ready to grit his teeth and endure it.

However, before the water and hot pot actually fell on Jiang Yao, it was smashed crookedly by a fan.

"Wait! I have some things that I want to discuss with the county magistrate. I don't know if my lord would like to show me your face?"

The expectant scene was suddenly interrupted, and the county magistrate subconsciously wanted to curse.

But he still has a steelyard in his heart, knowing that those who can come to the court to make trouble are generally not people without power,

Worried that something big would happen, he narrowed his eyes and carefully identified Liu Jue who was helping Jiang Yao up.

When Jiang Yao regained his footing, the county magistrate could see clearly who Liu Jue was.

Recognizing that the other party belonged to the rich merchant Liu's family, and seemed to have a very unusual relationship with Jiang Yao, a dead girl, the county magistrate suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

He knows how profitable the wholesale shop is.

The old woman of the Jiang family promised to give Jiang Yao's wholesale shop directly to him after the promise was fulfilled. If this did not work out, he would lose a lot of income.

but……

If he offends the rich merchant Liu's family, the tax revenue in the city will not be enough in the future, or if there is any place that needs their help from the Liu family, the Liu family will definitely not help him.

After a fierce struggle in his heart, for the sake of long-term interests in the future, the county magistrate could only compromise with Liu Jue, and asked someone to bring Liu Jue to him. The two communicated in voices that only each other could hear clearly. .

"Lord County Magistrate, to tell you the truth, I have a crush on the eldest lady of the Jiang family, and with her talents, she will create a lot of wealth for my Liu family in the future."

"I'm sure you are clear about what happened today. I won't say much. If you continue to judge like that..."

Liu Jue prolonged the ending on purpose, but did not inform the county magistrate of the consequences, causing cold sweat to form on the county magistrate's back.

In fact, he hadn't thought much about it just now, as the Liu family is an old rich businessman in the city, except for their money, they have some relationship with people in the official way and people in the underworld.

Unless the fish dies and the net is broken, he will definitely not get anything good.

After thinking about all the stakes, the county magistrate stood in a fawning manner and nodded at Liu Jue, signaling to him not to worry.

But in order to show the majesty of his county magistrate, he was still not so happy at the time of the judgment.

"Since Mr. Liu proves that you are not a thief, Jiang Yao, then I will give you a chance to prove your innocence. If you can't prove that the eating cheats you used are your own within three days, then you will be compensated." Mrs. Jiang's family has a thousand taels of silver."

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the hall.

You know, a thousand taels of silver can already buy a good house in the city, and an ordinary family may not be able to save so much in a lifetime.

Under the shocked eyes of everyone, Jiang Yao suddenly nodded in agreement.

"Then I would like to thank the county magistrate for his kindness. Starting tomorrow, the girls will work hard to earn money."

It's a pity that you don't even want to get any of my money.

Of course, Jiang Yao only said this in her heart.

After all, she was rescued by Liu Jue now, so she still has to restrain herself a little and not cause Liu Jue any more trouble.

There's no way, if it's all on her own, I'm afraid that today's court appearance will be just an appetizer, and she will have to spend the night in the prison at night.

Besides, she also has a pretty face and a good figure. She really doesn't want to imagine what will happen then!
Accompanied by Liu Jue, Jiang Yao left the county government smoothly.

Originally, Liu Jue wanted to ask her out to sit on the top floor of the welcoming restaurant and relax.

But Jiang Yao was facing a huge pressure of 1000 taels, so he couldn't calm down and relax, so he had to call a carriage to take Jiang Yao back. As for himself, he had to go back and explain to his family today.

In order to prevent his family members from going to Jiang Yao's shop to make troubles for no reason.

After getting off the car safely outside the wholesale shop, Jiang Yao saw a person standing around the shop, looking around from time to time.
