Chapter 202 Miss Lu is still so righteous
Lu Qingqing learned that this was the reason why the father and son were unwilling to report the matter to the authorities.
Uncle Li, Brother Li
If your only concern is not being able to see the magistrate...
Then you don't need to worry about this.
Besides this, do you have any other concerns?
The father and son both shook their heads.
"There are no other concerns."
Lu Qingqing smiled and looked at Li San, saying,
"Brother Li, you and Uncle Li pack up."
My second brother and I will go with you to the yamen to report the case.
"I guarantee you'll get to see the magistrate."
Li San looked surprised.
"Miss Qingqing, what can you do?"
That Su's Cloth Shop might have someone watching us.
Let's go like this.
You'll probably be stopped as soon as you enter the town.
We, father and son, cannot drag you down with us.
Lu Qingqing smiled confidently.
Brother Li, I understand your concerns.
But since I've said that, I'm naturally confident.
To be honest,
My second brother knows the head constable in the yamen (government office).
Lin Erzhu was slightly taken aback when Lu Qingqing suddenly called his name.
Then he saw Lu Qingqing wink at him.
He immediately understood.
"Yes, yes, I know the head constable of the yamen."
That constable and I were very close.
As long as we report it to the police...
He can definitely arrange everything for us.
He successfully met with the county magistrate.
They won't be stopped by the people from Su's Cloth Shop.
Mr. Li was somewhat skeptical.
Li San listened and thought it was feasible.
"father,
Since Miss Qingqing and Brother Erzhu have been so helpful,
"Then let's give it a try."
Li's father gritted his teeth.
As if they had made up their minds,
"Alright, then we'll do as Miss Qingqing says."
If we can successfully file a police report this time...
Let Su Ji Cloth Shop receive the punishment it deserves.
"My son and I will serve Qingqing like slaves."
Upon hearing this, Lu Qingqing
He hurriedly stepped forward, grabbed Mr. Li's arm, and said anxiously:
"Uncle, please don't say that."
I'll help you and Brother Li.
I just can't stand the bad deeds of Su Ji Cloth Shop.
It's not about seeking any reward.
Alright, Uncle, let's not hesitate.
Let's get going.
Li's father looked at Lu Qingqing.
His eyes were filled with gratitude and relief.
"Alright, I'll do as Miss Qingqing says."
Subsequently,
The two oxcarts headed together towards the government office.
Lin Erzhu drove an oxcart himself.
They went to the yamen before Li San and the others.
Li San drove the oxcart, feeling very uneasy.
They were afraid that someone would suddenly block their way.
If it were just the father and son, it would be fine.
It's just two lives at most.
But Qingqing, their savior, was also in the car.
We can't let them drag us down.
Thinking back, I was also hasty.
How could you make such a decision so easily?
He anxiously reminded him:
"Miss Qingqing,"
If anything happens in a little while
You have to run first, understand?
Li's father also chimed in from the side:
"Miss Qingqing, San'er is right."
In case someone comes to stop us.
Run quickly, saving your life is the most important thing.
You have done so much for our family.
We cannot allow ourselves to take further risks.
at this time,
A group of men in black suddenly appeared from both sides of the road ahead.
They surrounded the oxcart.
The leader of the men in black spoke coldly:
"Mr. Li,"
I didn't expect you guys to realize it so quickly.
I underestimated you and your son before.
However, I must give you a piece of advice.
If you know what's good for you, you'll keep your head down and behave yourself.
Otherwise, don't blame us for being ruthless with our swords.
Li San was so angry that his eyes turned red and his fists clenched tightly.
An angry response:
"So it really was your Su's Cloth Shop that did this!"
We have no past grievances or recent feuds.
Why were you so cruel as to take my father's life?
Your Su Ji Cloth Shop has committed this heinous act.
Do you expect us to swallow our anger?
Today I'm risking my life.
"I'll also go to the authorities to sue you."
The leader of the men in black sneered.
"Hmph, they really don't know what's good for them!"
Then I'll show you what I'm capable of today.
What happens if you go against Boss Su!
Having said that, he waved his hand.
The men in black behind them surrounded the oxcart.
Li San, leading the oxcart, was forced to retreat repeatedly by the group of men.
But he still shielded Lu Qingqing and her father behind him.
Lu Qingqing looked at the man in black in front of her and said angrily:
"In broad daylight, under the clear sky and bright earth..."
Unexpectedly, some people disregard the law.
"Aren't you afraid of taking lives so easily?"
The leader of the men in black smiled disdainfully.
"Law? In this territory..."
Boss Su is the law.
If you insist on going to the yamen today,
Then don't blame us for being impolite!
After saying that, he waved his hand.
The men in black surrounded them again.
"You audacious scoundrel, stop right now!"
A sharp shout came from afar, the voice loud and clear.
It carried an unquestionable air of authority.
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound.
A middle-aged man named Wei Liang, dressed in a constable's uniform, was seen.
He was rushing over with a few men.
His eyes were sharp as he stared intently at the group of men in black.
Seeing that things were going badly, the man in black whispered to his companions:
"Don't panic, there are only a few of them."
Let's give it a shot; maybe we still have a chance to escape.
Officer Wei seemed to have seen through their thoughts.
He warned loudly:
I advise you not to make a futile struggle.
If they obediently surrender, they might receive a lighter sentence.
Otherwise, if they resist, their crime will be compounded!
The leader of the men in black was not afraid upon hearing this.
Instead, his eyes hardened.
He swung his knife first, aiming at the head constable.
"Brothers, let's charge together and fight our way out!"
The blade gleamed coldly in the sunlight.
With a sharp killing intent, it aimed straight at the constable's throat.
Officer Wei's eyes flashed like lightning; he shifted his body to the side.
He nimbly dodged the fatal blow.
At the same time, he swiftly swung his long sword backhand.
It was aimed directly at the wrist of the leader of the men in black.
The leader of the men in black was startled and hurriedly withdrew his sword to defend himself.
He involuntarily took a step back.
The other men in black also joined the resistance.
But they were, after all, just thugs hired by Boss Su.
To fight against constables with real skills,
They quickly fell into a disadvantageous position.
Officer Wei instructed his men to tie them all up.
The constables acted swiftly, skillfully taking out ropes.
The men in black were tied up one by one.
The leader of the men in black glared fiercely at Constable Wei.
He kept cursing under his breath.
"Hmph, I'll remember you."
"The moment I get out, I'll kill you!"
Officer Wei smiled disdainfully.
"You? When we get to the yamen..."
Do you think you'll have another chance to get out?
The crimes committed by Su Ji Cloth Shop
That's enough for you to spend your whole life in jail.
Having said that, Officer Wei walked towards the oxcart.
Li San and his son repeatedly kowtowed to Wei Liang in gratitude.
"Thank you, sir! Thank you, sir!"
Wei Liang quickly helped Li San and his son up.
"Please, gentlemen, do not stand on ceremony."
I am aware of your situation.
Come back to the county government office with me.
Let me explain this matter in detail again.
Your Excellency, the magistrate, will certainly handle this matter impartially.
We will uphold justice for you.
Lu Qingqing stepped forward and said to Li San:
Uncle Li, Brother Li
Now that Officer Wei has come to pick you up,
Then my second brother and I can rest assured.
Next,
You just need to tell the magistrate the truth.
My second brother and I went back first.
Upon hearing this, Li San quickly said:
"Miss Qingqing,"
Today's events are all thanks to you and Brother Erzhu.
I need not thank you for such a great kindness.
If you ever need my help in the future,
I would brave any danger, even mountains of knives and seas of fire!
Li's father also chimed in from the side.
"Yes, Miss Qingqing,"
The kindness you and Erzhu have shown to our family
We, father and son, will never forget this.
Lu Qingqing said with a smile:
Uncle Li, Brother Li
Let's not be so polite.
I only did what I could.
The evil deeds of Su Ji Cloth Shop
No one would stand idly by if they saw it.
Now that Officer Wei has arrived...
You can rest assured and go with him to the county government.
Explain the matter clearly and in its entirety.
I'm sure the magistrate will uphold justice for you."
Wei Liang nodded with a smile.
They greatly admired Lu Qingqing's chivalrous act.
He said:
"It's been a long time,"
Miss Lu remains so righteous and principled.
Mr. Wei truly admires him.
Lu Qingqing's cheeks flushed slightly, and she said shyly:
"Brother Wei, you flatter me,"
Subsequently,
The Li father and son went to the county government office with Constable Wei.
Lu Qingqing went home with Lin Erzhu.
