Chapter 249 Interrogating Qian
Ah Jiu was taken aback when he heard this.

She remembered that Grandpa Lizheng said that his father-in-law was a blacksmith, and he spared no effort to forge that set of knives himself.

The son is a cook, and this knife is for him.

What's more, the Qian family still has the atmosphere of a shop, so it really shouldn't be reduced to the fact that the man and father-in-law have nothing to eat after they die.

"Qian, did you really not explain a word?" Ah Jiu confirmed again.

"No, just say she doesn't know anything."

Tuobayan answered truthfully, and suddenly lowered his voice and said in Ah Jiu's ear: "Sister Ah Jiu, this Qian family hides a lot of secrets. , if something goes wrong, he won't be safe, so we must have a trial to get to the bottom of it."

Ah Jiu fell into deep thought, and subconsciously looked at Hui'er who was hiding behind her.

"Sister Jiu'er, I know you have a kind heart, so what Xiao Yanyan can do is to help you keep Huier."

Ah Jiu was grateful that Tuoba Yan knew him so well.

"Then... how long will it take to come back?" Ah Jiu grabbed Hui'er's little hand and held it in his hand.

"Sister Jiu'er, it depends on the result. If there is really some shocking secret hidden, there is probably no possibility of her coming back."

It was the first time that Tuoba Yan spoke to Sister Jiu'er so seriously.

Maybe it was because he went to Nanzhou County to pick up Jiu'er and saw how thin she looked, and maybe it was because he felt that the plague had exhausted his sister, so he took this case very seriously.

"Don't...my aunt, she didn't break the law." Hui'er curled her mouth, tears falling down in pairs.

Suddenly he broke Ah Jiu's hand and ran towards the entrance of the village.

Ah Jiu followed closely behind: "Hui'er!"

Tuoba Yan followed closely behind.

When catching up, Huier lay on the carriage and slammed on the door: "Mother, Auntie, what will Huier do if you are gone?"

The people guarding the carriage turned their swords at each other: "Where is the wild girl from?"

"Don't be impulsive." Tuoba Yan arrived in time.

Only then did those people put their knives back into their scabbards, and retreated aside.

"Mother, why don't you talk? As long as an official makes it clear, you can stay with Hui'er, mother... I'm so scared."

Hui'er's thin body was crying and trembling.

Ah Jiu could hear the people in the carriage also sobbing, but she didn't dare to cry out loud.

"Aunt...Aniang!"

Huier called hysterically, but the people inside just didn't speak.

"Sister Jiu'er, what should I do?" Tuoba Yan saw the sad expression on Jiu'er's face.

"I don't know either." Ah Jiu spoke from his heart.

Suddenly, the carriage door was pushed open, and the thin woman rushed down and hugged Hui'er tightly.

"Mother, Hui'er knew you wouldn't leave me alone." Hui'er cried even harder.

The interrogation over there has ended, and those who ate the meat were taken away, and the meat that was not eaten was burned on the spot.

The magistrate came here step by step with his guards.

Qian's skull-like face was stained with tears, and he suddenly raised his head and knelt down:
"Grandfather of the county, I said, I said everything, what I ate was the meat of my man."

As soon as these words came out, Ah Jiu's pupils dilated.

Everyone present was dumbfounded.

"what?"

"Oh my god."

Hui'er beside her suddenly stopped crying, as if she had been frightened, she slowly detached from her mother's arm, and retreated step by step in a daze.

"Impossible, I have checked the ancestors of the Qian family, who made a living by blacksmithing in modern times, and still worked as a merchant in the crowded Nanming City, how could they end up eating your man's flesh.

What's more, how did Qian Youjin contract such febrile diseases? "

Ah Jiu didn't catch his breath for a long while.

She doesn't want to say, or can't?She was still afraid of scaring Hui'er, and didn't want everyone to know her secret.

As soon as the county magistrate finished speaking, Qian slightly raised her eyes to look at Ah Jiu, she was full of gratitude, but at this moment she suddenly lowered her head, as if she had no face to face it.

"Tell me quickly, otherwise, I will immediately take both of you, mother and daughter, back for interrogation, and you will not be the only one who will be punished."

The county magistrate is also a veteran, and he can tell at a glance that the weak point of this tricky woman is that child.
