My Loyal and Lovely Husband

Chapter 98: The Discerning County Magistrate



Wang Hai, the county magistrate, feels so funny that he laughs. His laughter is as horrible as the thunder from the sky for Xu Lan’er and Wang Su.

Striding back to the desk, Wang Hai puts the judge’s gavel heavily on the desk and shouts: “Wang Su, you really treat me as a fool! How dare you lie in the court! Tell the truth now! Or you want me to use some instruments of torture? ”

Wang Su and Xu Lan’er are shaking like autumn cicadas. They keep on kowtowing to Wan Hai and cry out one after the other, “We are wronged, we are wronged.”

“You two intend to fool me. How dare you still deny the truth.”

Wang Hai sneers and claps judge’s gavel, breaking out: “Unruly, Wang Su, at first you said that Jin scratched your chest, and then you changed your words and claimed that she scratched your clothes. You said you were hit by stick. However, there was no scar on your whole body except your hands. You made up a lie to fool me. Do you think the official is only a decoration?”

Wang Su is shivering and could not get up. His teeth bump up and down, making a creaking sound.

“Xu Lan’er! You are Wang Su’s wife, but not a good woman at all. Otherwise, how could you wear the embroidered shoes that only prostitutes wear on your feet?”

Xu Lan’er’s expression suddenly changes. She hurriedly looks at the embroidered shoes on her feet, and then falls to the ground in despair.

After scolding Wang Su and Xu Lan’er, Wang Hai takes a long breath and looks at Jin Weiwei again.

Jin Weiwei says wisely, “Just now, I was so angry that I questioned Wang Su continuously in the courtroom. I’m really sorry to break the rules. I hope you could forgive me.”

Wang Hai’s expression becomes relaxed, and he sits on the chair and says carelessly, “You let me watch a good show, and I won’t fuss about these details.”

“You two, quickly tell the truth!” Wang Hai looks at Wang Su with cold eyes.

Wang Su shudders and dares not to hide the truth anymore. So he tells the truth honestly.

But he never mentions Jiang Qingshou. He just says that he is a gangster who lacks money recently. In order to blackmail some money, he colludes with Xu Lan’er, a prostitute in Yingchun brothel.

Jin Weiwei remembers Wang Su’s behavior of looking at the crowd frequently. She knows that there must be someone behind who controls the whole incident, but she has no evidence now. If she exposes it rashly, she would put herself at disadvantage.

Forget it! She will find a way to check Wang Su’s background later. Since there is someone who has a feud with her, he will not let her go in the future. And she could wait for him.

“So it is.” After hearing Wang Su’s words, Wang Hai touches his moustache, smiles at Jin Wei and says, “These two people maliciously framed you. I will punish them impartially.”

“As expected, you are really observant. Even if Di Renjie is here, he couldn’t do better.” Jin Weiwei smiles like a flower and flatters, and her expression is very sincere: “I really admire you.”

Hearing Weiwei’s flattering, Wang Hai becomes really happy. He looks at Wang Su and yells, “you two…”

Before making the final verdict, Wang Su and Xu Lan’er kowtow to beg for mercy: “Please let us off. We are utterly depraved to have such absurd actions before.”

“Since you know it’s ridiculous, you should be punished heavily for you break the law purposely!” Wang Hai thinks of their lie aiming to manipulate him, and he becomes angry and claps twice: “Wang Su, Xu Lan’er framed innocent people, and talk nonsense in the court. Now you should compensate Jin Weiwei for fifty taels of silver.”

This incident does not cause any person’s death nor any financial dispute. Generally speaking, in such a small case, Wang and Xu are asked to compensate for some silver. However, Wang Hai, the county magistrate, is angry with them and has increased the amount of silver.

But Weiwei shakes her head slightly: “I don’t want them to compensate me in terms of silver.”

How could she refuse the fifty taels of silver? It’s not a small amount of money!

The Yamen servants on both sides widen their eyes. Isn’t the little girl a fool? Refusing to accept silver!

Wang Hai smiles with interest and asks, “You don’t want money? Just let them go? ”

With a light smile, Jin Weiwei kowtows respectfully and answers solemnly, “Sage Kong once said, ‘How can we repay good for evil?’ Therefore, I don’t want to violate the words of Confucius. ”

Wang Hai strokes his beard and asks with a smile, “Then what do you want to do with them?”

Wang Su and Xu Lan’er listen to the county magistrate’s words, staring at Jin Weiwei. Jin Weiwei is also looking at them. Xu Lan’er begs for mercy: “Miss Jin, you are generous. Please forgive us this time. We won’t do it again.”

Taking back her eyes, Jin Weiwei straightens herself up and says modestly, “I don’t want their money, because their money is dirty!”© NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

Wang Hai, the county magistrate, raises his eyebrows. Unexpectedly, the little girl is so proud. However, Weiwei continues: “I only hope you can put these two people in prison, and let them have a good taste of prison food, and learn a long lesson so as to prevent them from thinking viciously and harming others in the future!”

This is the real reason why Weiwei doesn’t want their money. She wants them to go to jail. Wang Hai couldn’t help laughing and says: “You are slippery. Well, these two unruly people’s behaviors are really disgusting. This time, teach them a good lesson.”

“My County Magistrate! Don’t put me in prison. I have elderly parents and children in my family to take care of. If I are put into prison, who will support them? Please forgive me… ” Wang Su’s forehead is red with kowtowing

Xu Lan’er also wails and cries, and her voice is especially sharp and harsh: “My County Magistrate, I will never dare to do it again. Please let me go this time.”

The two people cry bitterly as if their parents died. The court becomes noisy.

Seeing that Wang Hai doesn’t change his original intention, Xu Lan’er takes off her clothes and winks at Wang Hai with her big tearful face: “As long as you let me go this time, I’m willing to sleep with you for free.”

This gesture really disgusts everyone in the court.

“You, you, you…” Wang Hai is too shocked to speak a complete sentence. He points to Xu Lan’er and shouts: “Hurry to put on your clothes!”

Xu Lan’er doesn’t obey, and continues to takes off her belly pocket.

Jin Weiwei feels disgusted when she sees such a ridiculous behavior. She twitches her mouth and retreats silently.

The Yamen servants have never seen such a brazen woman, and they are stunned for a moment.

Wang Hai is disgusted by Xu Lan’er’s actions. It’s almost a disaster. If it spreads out, how could he continue to be a county magistrate.

“What are you doing? Send these two rogues to the prison hurriedly!”
