My Loyal and Lovely Husband

Finally, Jiang Qingshou was led to the court. The moment he appears in the court, he feels the hostility from people there. He looks around, every policeman there is glaring at him as if he were a rubbish and bastard. Turning left, he finds that Jin Weiwei is sitting there, which aggravates his nervousness.

“Sir, why you request my presence to the court?” Says Jiang Qingshou. After Jiang Qingshou steps into the court, Wang Hai, the county magistrate, looks narrowly at him. However, everything is fine, from his appearance to his behavior. Wang Hai thinks that he must be misguided by his appearance, if Jin Weiwei did not reveal his true side to him. Suddenly, Jiang Qingshou’s eyes catch Wang Su’s elusive eyesight when he raises his head, which makes him stunned.

The moment he finds Wang Su in the court, he knows the reason why Wang Hai calls him in. Thinking about that, he is so nervous that his veins burst out on his forehead. Immediately, with his eyes turning red, he gnashes his teeth in despair and thinks, “Li Mazi! I will kill him! He is a cheater! Wang Su is not poisoned to mute at all!” Instead of being poisoned to mute, it must be the truth that Wang Su has already accused him of being the one behind all these things. If not, Wang Hai would not arrest him, and take him to the court. Also the funniest thing is that on his way to the court Jiang Qingshou thought that he must be caught for his selling the meat from the dead pig, and he even figured out how to bribe the officers.

In the court, Wang Hai and Jin Weiwei are all in silence to see how Jiang Qingshou explains everything. The air is almost frozen. Jiang Qingshou clenches his hands and his heart nearly booms into pieces! Even though he buries his head deep into his chest, his nervous expression never tells lie. Watching that, Wang Hai gets to know that Wang Su’s words are trustful. “It seems that you have known why you are arrested?” Says Wang Hai, slowly.

While searching the most appropriate ways to respond to Wang Hai, Jiang Qingshou squeezes a smile and says, “Sir, you make me confused? I don’t know what do you mean by …” “No problem…I tell you.” With a smile, Wang Hai explains, “Wang Su, the staff of your meat-shop, said that you asked him to entrap Jin Weiwei by saying her poisoning the mutton at the opening day of Jin’s Meat-shop. You want to ruin her reputation. Is that true?” “Nonsense!” Shouts Jiang Qingshou with the appearance of being insulted. Then he argues with his face reddening, “I am a kind man. I was raised in the family which never breaks the law. How can I do such a vicious thing!”

Actually, Wang Hai does not know whether the ancestors of Jiang Qingshou have ever broken the law. Thus, he turns to his secretary, who, wearing a blue gown, whispers something to him. Then, Wang Hai is stunned to know that it is really true that Jiang Qingshou’s family members are all law-abiding citizens. What’s more, his grandfather was even praised for saving someone’s life. Taking his family background into consideration, Wang Hai decides to change his ways of solving the case. As a county magistrate, he will not judge Jiang Qingshou guilty only because of the testimony of Wang Su, though he thinks that Jiang Qingshou is not innocent.

With a cold hum, Jin Weiwei wonders that how the family of righteousness has brought up such a bad guy as Jiang Qingshou! Coughs Wang Hai. “You are right. But how Wang Su is sure that you are the man behind everything?” Jiang Qingshou bows to everyone in the court and raises his head, pointing to Wang Su. “Generally, Wang Su is cunning and immoral. Days ago, he complained that he was hard up for money and wanted to take the salary in advance. I refused him. I think that’s why he made up the whole thing to ruin my reputation!” At that moment, Jin Weiwei perceives that, obviously, Jiang Qingshou wastes time intentionally which will allow him to think about ways to help him get away with charging.

Jiang Qingshou wants to free himself from charge. However, Jin Weiwei will never allow him to do that! According to Jiang Qingshou, Wang Su takes revenge on him. Wang Hai knows that Jiang Qingshou is telling lies. If Wang Su is just like what he said, he can tell the truth the first time in the court. No one will suspect him because he has been working in Jiang’s Meat-shop for years, and it is definitely reasonable for him to obey the orders from Jiang Qingshou. However, when Wang Hai speaks out his suspicion, Jiang Qingshou explains, “when we are in the court, he must be too nervous to malign me.”

He tries to speak, but for once, his voice fails him. Wang Su shouts in a hurry, “Bullshit!” Unexpectedly, Jin Weiwei pats on his shoulder. Wang Su turns back to see Jin Weiwei smiling to him, “Let me ask him several questions.” Then, Jin Weiwei bows to Wang Hai and says, “Sir, may I ask him some questions?” Recalling that last time Jin Weiwei made Wang Su speechless in the court, Wang Hai thinks that it is a great idea to let her interrogate Jiang Qingshou. Thus, he can focus on finding some clues from Jiang’s reaction.

Thinking that way, Wang Hai agrees with Jin Weiwei and smiles, “All right. You can ask whatever you think is necessary, and Jiang Qingshou, you shouldn’t refuse to answer.” Jiang Qingshou clenches his teeth secretly, staring at Jin Weiwei. Jin Weiwei, his niece, is quite different from what she used to be, so he has to be careful. Jin Weiwei steps to Jiang Qingshou. The nearer to him, the colder her eyes appear, like a knife stabbing on his skin. “What do you want to know? Quickly! I am…” Realizing that Wang Hai is still there, he swallows the bad words and says, “I am busy with my business. Please be quick…”Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

“Oh, really? I am afraid that today you can’t step out of the court.” Says Jin Weiwei, with a meaningful smile on her face. “Wang Su said that the day he accused me of poisoning the mutton, the man behind these things was on the spot. So where were you that day?” The moment Jin Weiwei asks, Wang Hai praises her for her wisdom and cleverness, because she catches the key of the whole thing. Without any expressions, Jiang Qingshou thinks that day he was riding the carriage and Wang Su was the only one with him. Thus, no one knows the truth. It is quite safe to say that he stays at home on that day…but…it seems that there’s something wrong…His eyes are covered with darkness, which seems that he is not quite confident with his explanation, because if Jin Weiwei asks him to prove his alibi, that would trouble him.

“What? Answer my question!” Urges Jin Weiwei, because she will never allow him to think about her question. Then she steps near him and pushes him by asking, “Don’t you want to tell me that you stay at home the whole day?” Suddenly, an idea occurs to Jiang Qingshou, and he says, “That day I went out to relax myself because I was frustrated for days of bad business.”
