Chapter 649: Making a scene in court
"She has been pampered by her family since she was a child. She has never suffered any hardship. She has become a miracle doctor and has also recognized Governor Meng as her godfather. Our county magistrate is also her godfather. No wonder you mentioned the Jiang family. When your godsister comes, you naturally have to let her go. Aren't they family members?"
The old woman who was speaking was from Lianshan Town, so she knew the Jiang family very well.
But what she said made Jiang Sanhe's face turn pale.
"What did you say? Jiang family? Jiang Fubao? Are you talking about Jiang Fubao? Is her grandmother called Zhang Jinlan?"
Jiang Sanhe pulled the old woman's arm and asked frantically.
"Hey, what are you doing? Please don't tear my new clothes. Let go." Seeing that Jiang Sanhe was pulling so hard that his sleeves became wrinkled, the old woman slapped Jiang Sanhe's hand in anger.
"I'm asking you a question! Is it Jiang Fubao? Her grandmother is Zhang Jinlan?" Jiang Sanhe asked again with bloodshot eyes.
"Yes, yes, I'm talking about her. Let go of her quickly, or I'll call the police. It's so unlucky that I came here to watch a fun and ended up meeting a lunatic." The old woman also thought Jiang Sanhe was a lunatic. After prying her hands open, she hid aside.
The people around pointed at Jiang Sanhe.
Jiang Sanhe didn't care about being embarrassed. She squeezed to the front and looked inside eagerly.
Time passed little by little.
The officers finally came over.
Stand in two rows.
"Shengtang——"
"mighty--"
Meng Bujiu walked to the court in his official uniform. He sat behind the desk and slammed the gavel on the table.
"Bring up the prisoner Sun Guangzong!"
The gavel made such a loud noise that it frightened the people watching.
It was as if they were the prisoners being taken away.
There is an inexplicable feeling of guilt and fear.
"Wuuuu, I want my mother, let me go, grandma, someone is bullying me, wuuuuu--" Sun Guangzong, who had been detained for a long time, was brought up by the officers crying.
He was held down again by force and kicked by the officer.
Sun Guangzong felt pain in the back of his knee and fell to his knees.
There was a "thump" sound on the hard bluestone floor.
It was painful to hear, and Sun Guangzong cried even more miserably.
Jiang Sanhe, who was standing outside, was heartbroken.
Her tears also flowed down.
"Let my son go, let me in, I want to go in--" She rushed in, but was stopped by the officers.
The noise was so loud that Meng Bujiu's eyes fell on her.
"Who is this person in the court? Why are you causing trouble? Bring him up here!" A cold and stern voice echoed in the court.
Many people swallowed their saliva and silently prayed for this crazy woman.
If you dare to cause trouble in court, you must want to die.
"I am Fubao's aunt. My last name is Jiang. This is Fubao's cousin! Let my son go. We are a family. How can we arrest our own family members and bring them to the county government? Let my son go. My son, I am here to save you. I believe you did not steal anyone's money. Someone must have framed you."
Jiang Sanhe immediately revealed his identity.
She thought that after saying this, Meng Bujiu would let his son go for the Jiang family's sake, and maybe even feel sorry for her and give her some money.
But what she didn't expect was that Meng Bujiu's face became extremely gloomy.
"Anyone who causes trouble in the court will be beaten with ten strokes of the stick!" When this sentence came out, Jiang Sanhe was stunned.
She no longer cared about her son and was so scared that she fell to the ground and leaned backwards.
"Yes, sir." The two officers obeyed the order and stepped forward to hold her down.
After a while, the sound of hitting the board was heard.
"Bang bang bang-"
"Ahhh-"
“Help, stop hitting me, ahhhh, I’m a member of the Jiang family, I’m Fubao’s aunt, I’m Zhang’s daughter, let me go, stop hitting me, ahhhh——”
The heavy board hit Jiang Sanhe's buttocks, and the dull sound made Sun Guangzong forget to cry.
The people outside the court also pursed their lips and watched without blinking.
"What a fool! He actually barged in and caused trouble. Did he really think the magistrate was a vegetarian?"
"Hey, stupid woman, you don't know what the law is. You deserve to be beaten. You are a woman, but you come here to make trouble. Aren't you looking for death?"
"The punishment you gave me was too lenient. I remember a woman who broke into the court twelve years ago was beaten with thirty sticks. She died."
"Even a strong man can't stand thirty strokes of the cane, let alone a woman. I'm afraid she'll have to stay in bed for a few months at least. Tsk tsk, she's asking for trouble."
"Mom, I'm afraid—"
"Don't be afraid, son. Let's not watch anymore. Let's go. Mom will take you to eat wontons—"
"..."
Various sounds could be heard in the crowd, but none of them could drown out the dull sound of beatings and Jiang Sanhe's roar.
The ten strokes of the cane were finished quickly, and Jiang Sanhe's buttocks were covered in blood.
Even without opening it, you can tell that the meat inside must be rotten.
"I am a member of the Jiang family... How can you hit the Jiang family? Aren't you Fubao's foster brother? If she knew, and my mother knew, how would the Jiang family look at you?"
Jiang Sanhe used the last of his strength to say this and then fainted.
"Hmph, forget about being a foster relative. Even if you are my aunt, what's the point? If you make a mistake, you deserve to be beaten! Come here, Sun Guangzong committed the crime of stealing, and he will be severely beaten with 15 boards. His mother openly caused trouble, and he will be beaten with 5 more boards! You dare to commit a crime in the county governed by me, and you are unforgivable!"
The gavel rang again.
The blame also fell on Sun Guangzong.
"Ahhh-"
"Help me—"
"Killing people——"
"Ah..."
Although Sun Guangzong was fat and stronger than his mother, he received more beatings.
After being hit thirteen times, he passed out.
The man was dizzy, but the beating did not stop. He was hit with twenty boards before it ended.
Blood was oozing out of Sun Guangzong's buttocks, and feces and urine were pouring out uncontrollably. The urine flowed down his pants, over the bench, and dripped onto the ground, wetting the bluestone bricks.
His butt looks even scarier than Jiang Sanhe's.
Half of the onlookers had left.
They are all timid people and dare not look at it again.
It took only half an hour from the time the court opened to the time the crowd dispersed.
The mother and son were sent back to Sunjia Village in Lianshan Town by officials in a horse-drawn carriage.
When the village chief learned that the official was coming, he was so scared that he knelt and crawled to greet him.
But when he learned that someone in his village had committed a crime, he was so angry that he slapped Zhou Xiufen in the face after the officer left.
"Look at what your family has done! You have brought shame to the entire village! I will discuss this with the clan leader, and if he agrees, you will be expelled from the clan!"
Having said this, he left.
The villagers gathered outside the Sun family's house, pointing and talking inside.
Zhou Xiufen's right cheek was burning with pain, but she had no time to be angry.
