Traveling through the famine years with the system to raise cubs

Chapter 78 Wronged



"Mother, that's why you asked me to come here in such a hurry?" Jiang Ling, who was walking through the alley, suddenly heard a somewhat familiar voice.

"Son, your mother-in-law died early, and she didn't leave you with a son or a daughter. How old are you this year, do you want to end the old Duan's family?" The old man came to Jiang Ling with a serious voice. in the ears.

Jiang Ling followed the voice and looked up, the scene in front of Jiang Ling was unexpected, the county magistrate Duan in front of him was arguing with the old man in front of him a little angrily.

Through the short conversation, Jiang Ling had an extremely bad premonition in her heart. She seemed to have broken through the county magistrate Duan's little secret.

Jiang Ling froze on the spot and was at a loss. If he turned around and went back, he would have to go around a long way, but if he walked forward so carelessly, it didn't seem very good if the county magistrate Duan found out.

Just when she was hesitating what to do, a voice made Jiang Ling break out in a cold sweat.

"Mr. Jiang, why is it such a coincidence?" County magistrate Duan said briefly, and Jiang Ling's heart began to beat wildly.

"Yes... yes, such a... coincidence." Jiang Ling answered bravely.

"Son, who is this?" The old lady Duan turned to look at Jiang Ling and asked with a gleam in her eyes.

"This...is ordinary people in a village under my jurisdiction!" County magistrate Duan hesitated and said.

The old lady Duan kept looking at Jiang Ling, which made Jiang Ling feel very uncomfortable. When the magistrate Duan found out, he immediately asked, "Mr. Jiang, do you have anything to do with the magistrate?"

Jiang Ling shook her head like a rattle immediately after hearing this, County Magistrate Duan coughed lightly and said, "Oh, then you should leave quickly!"

Jiang Ling is not a fool, knowing that the county magistrate Duan would give her a step down, she saluted and trotted away from the alley. Pretty good" something like that.

But Jiang Ling didn't dare to stay any longer at this meeting, she didn't want to have anything to do with these officials at all.

"Hey, have you heard that the shopkeeper of the study had a quarrel with someone!"

"Isn't it! That person seems to be a student of Pingfu Academy in Pingxi County..."

Just as Jiang Ling walked out of the alley, the arguing words of passers-by drifted into Jiang Ling's ears. Jiang Ling ran a few steps, caught up with the two chatting passers-by and asked, "Excuse me, but you just talked about the boss and people in the study. Arguing?"

"Yeah, what's the matter?" The woman who was talking to Jiang Ling looked very young, probably in her early twenties, she looked at Jiang Ling strangely and asked back.

"Then... is that person wearing a dark blue cloth shirt, about this tall, not fat or thin?" Jiang Ling began to compare and draw Jiang Zhishan's height.

"Hmm... It seems to be quite similar to what this elder sister described, isn't it Xiaofen?" The young woman asked with a glance at the woman next to her.

After hearing this, Xiaofen stroked her chin and thought for a few seconds, then nodded to Jiang Ling and said, "Well, that person is similar to what Eldest Sister described!"

"Oops!" Jiang Ling yelled badly, thanked the two of them, and walked quickly towards the study.

There were already many people around the study at this time, and Jiang Ling heard Jiang Zhishan's voice before he reached the study.

Jiang Ling couldn't help speeding up her pace and squeezed in towards the crowd. At this time, Jiang Zhishan was blushing and arguing with the shopkeeper of the study.

The shopkeeper of the study looked at Jiang Zhishan with a disdainful expression.

"Zhishan, what's the matter?" Jiang Ling asked, patting Jiang Zhishan on the shoulder lightly.

Seeing Jiang Ling's appearance, Jiang Zhishan seemed to see hope. He turned his head and said in an anxious tone: "Sister! The shopkeeper insisted that I stole things! He also said that I was expelled from Pingfu Academy because of my dirty hands and feet." of!"

"What's the matter?" Jiang Ling frowned and asked the shopkeeper, "Shopkeeper, what evidence do you have that my brother stole things?"

"What evidence? He just passed by over there, and my book is missing two books. What evidence do you think I have?" The shopkeeper glanced at Jiang Ling with disdain and said.

"Big sister! I... I really didn't steal anything!!" Jiang Zhishan blushed with anxiety, and kept defending himself!

"The shopkeeper's reason is too far-fetched. Since you have no real evidence, why do you frame my brother?" Jiang Ling shouted loudly.

"I'm too lazy to be as knowledgeable as you. If he really didn't steal, then he will take off his clothes and prove his innocence!" The shopkeeper rolled his eyes and said.

"Okay! I'll take it off! I'm afraid of being an upright person!" Jiang Zhishan was really confused, he yelled at the shopkeeper, stretched out his hand and started to unbutton his clothes.

"Stop! Stop!" Jiang Ling immediately pressed Jiang Zhishan's trembling hands.

"Shopkeeper, don't be unreasonable, why should we prove our innocence, you let my brother undress in public, you are clearly insulting people!" Jiang Ling argued with his eyes wide open.

"I'm too lazy to argue with you woman, he has to take it off today, otherwise you will pay us [-] copper coins, and it will be considered successful!" the shopkeeper said.

"Don't be too deceitful..."

"When did you make such a noise?" County Magistrate Duan's voice interrupted Jiang Ling's words.

The onlookers immediately knelt on the ground to salute after seeing County Magistrate Duan in the crowd.

County magistrate Duan signaled them to get up, and then his eyes fell on Jiang Ling.

"My lord! This kid has dirty hands and feet, and stole my book!" The shopkeeper of the study saw that it was the magistrate Duan who ran to the magistrate Duan and knelt on the ground first.

"You're talking nonsense! Shao Xue spitting!" Jiang Zhishan yelled at the owner of the study, trembling all over, ignoring the presence of County Magistrate Duan.

"Stop, don't mess around!" Jiang Ling pulled Jiang Zhishan to the magistrate Duan, knelt on the ground and saluted magistrate Duan.

County magistrate Duan saw Jiang Ling and Jiang Zhishan being so close, and an indescribable feeling immediately filled his heart. He pretended to be calm and motioned the three of them to get up and asked, "What happened?"

"My lord! I found out that this kid came to our study to steal books, and I still don't admit it! Hmph! No wonder Ningfu Academy doesn't want you! It's as dirty as they said!" The owner of the study pointed to Jiang Zhishan.

"You..." Jiang Zhishan was so angry that he couldn't say a word, and stood there trembling all over.

Jiang Ling patted Jiang Zhishan's shoulder gently and comforted him: "Zhishan is fine, I'm here!"

"My lord, this man is my younger brother, Jiang Zhishan. Today, the two of us came by bullock cart from Lujia Village. We were temporarily separated in the alley before. After I finished shopping, I heard passers-by say that there was a dispute here. Passers-by The clothes and height described are very similar to my brother, when I came here, I saw the shopkeeper of the study and my brother had a dispute." Jiang Ling said.

"Huh? He's your younger brother?" County magistrate Duan was taken aback, and his gloomy mood was swept away in an instant.

Jiang Ling nodded and continued to add: "The other party claimed that two books were missing from the bookshelves just after my younger brother passed by. They insisted that my younger brother stole the books, and asked my younger brother to take off his clothes to prove his innocence!"

County Magistrate Duan frowned after hearing this, and looked at the owner of the study with a stern face. Just as he was about to ask, the clerk of the study ran out of the study in a hurry, and almost fell to the ground because of the garlic on the soles of his feet because of his haste.

"Did you encounter a ghost in broad daylight in such a panic?" the shopkeeper of the study scolded displeased.

"The shopkeeper... the shopkeeper's..." The study assistant looked at the shopkeeper's faltering expression with some embarrassment.
