Chapter 538 Where did you get the money?
The nunnery owner is a female nun in her fifties, this will want to stop but can’t, finally just don’t stop, fall sitting outside on top of the quilt, panting, extremely pitiful.
There were not many female nuns in the nunnery, and they were all timid, so no one came to help the nunnery, and when the nunnery fell down on top of the quilt, a female nun came over and tried to help the nunnery up.
The nun, however, didn’t want to get up and shook her head, sitting on top of the covers and glaring angrily at the scoundrel still rummaging around inside.
Everything inside had basically been turned out, even the cushions and quilts, and all that was left was an empty bedpan, and there was nothing underneath it, and you could see the bottom of the bed at a glance.
Other places even the corner side of the bed and behind the wall, Wang Wu have checked, or nothing, which is a little different from what Wang Wu thought, got so much money from his own aunt, it is not possible to really spend all of it in a big way.
The nuns in the nunnery used how provincial, Wang Wu knew before, this nunnery master obviously colluded with people, assassinated that official lady, can do such a thing, get the money will not be less, even if there is no other evidence, this money is not the evidence?
A nun on this side of the fence can’t have that kind of money.
Wang Wu also counted, even after so many years have passed, with the living environment of this broken nunnery, this old nun will not spend much money, it is bound to be hidden in secret.
But now, surprisingly, no!
Wang Wu was a little panicked, after a few rounds in the house, ultimately found nothing, which raised his head to look out the window.
Outside the window the nunnery master was still sitting, coldly watching this flurry of Wang Wu.
“Have you checked? Have you found any evidence? If there is any, please also report it to the officials immediately!” Seeing Wang Wu’s somewhat flustered expression, the nunnery master scolded in a stern voice.
Holding the female nun to one side, she stood up and reached out to Wang Wu, “Go go go, let’s go report to the officials now.”
Seeing him so for a moment, Wang Wu was truly flustered, looking at the house that was already counted as being too innocent to be clean, his eyes were flustered as he walked out, even piling up a small smile on his face, “Anmaster, this is a misunderstanding, I also heard that my aunt was harmed by you, so I came to take a look, and now, since there’s nothing wrong… …”
His eyes darted from side to side, trying to run out to a less crowded area.
How dare he go to see the official ah, not to mention to see the official, this if the casino people found him here, not to die will be less than half a life.
“This quilt is quite new, it looks like it was newly sewn, it’s just that the stitching is a little not so good, the thread is a little too thick.” A low voice suddenly and abruptly entered the ears of Wang Wu, who was trying to wait for an opportunity to escape, pulling Wang Wu’s feet to a halt.
“It seems like the nunnery master cares a lot about this quilt, Fang has been sitting on it all this time, and now even when he stands up, his feet don’t leave.” Another person seemed to be talking to himself.
None of the voices were loud, but on the contrary, several people present heard them.
Wang Wu froze, and suddenly lowered his head to look at the quilt at the nunnery’s feet, which was thrown out by him earlier, and was now piled haphazardly at the nunnery’s feet.
Compared to the other things in the house, the quilt did look much newer, and as for whether the needle corners were good, Wang Wu couldn’t tell.
But that didn’t stop him from subconsciously looking up to see the face of the nunnery master again, and instead of the face with the stern color of the party, what he saw was a moment of stiffness.
Wang Wu was a scoundrel who had seen a lot of people before, and wasn’t all that stupid, sometimes it could even be said that the reaction was extremely fast, even without too much brain.
Taking a few steps forward, he reached for the covers.
Subconsciously, the nun reached out as well, trying to pull on the corner of the quilt, and the look on his face had become flustered, completely different from the angry and exasperated look of the party.
It would go without saying that many people saw that there was something else going on.
Both reach down to pull the corner of the quilt, Wang Wu’s ultimate strength and a man, backhand pulling the quilt surface hard tear, immediately a few silver tickets floated down.
The nunnery master’s face was like dirt , trying to reach out was already too late, his body swayed, shaking and falling into a sitting position.
“Sure enough, actually hiding so many silver bills, actually really scheming my aunt’s property.” Wang Wu picked up a silver ticket and shook it proudly.
One is a hundred taels, but there are several of them here, enough for him to live comfortably for the rest of his life.
Reach out three or two times to get all the silver tickets in the hands of the pinch, as for the other he did not care, turn his hand to throw the quilt is going to go, forgive this old nun did not dare to do anything.
He glared threateningly at the nunnery owner, turned around and was about to leave, drying this old nun wouldn’t dare to report to the police, this time he really made a windfall.
“In broad daylight, there are actually such outlaws, come on, arrest the people!” A stern voice suddenly came from outside the crowd.
The crowd on both sides was pushed away, and several magistrates rushed in, reaching out on both sides and pressing Wang Wu, who wanted to flee out, to his knees.
Only then did the crowd turn around to see Yue Wenhan, surrounded by several guards, walking in with an icy face, and he was surrounded not only by guards, but also by the Da Lisi’s magistrates accompanying him.
Although the villagers and the perfumers didn’t recognize who this person in front of them was, it didn’t stop them from knowing that the person in front of them was an adult from the government office, and one by one, they knelt down.
“Greetings, my lord!”
“Greetings, my lord!” …
The villagers in remote places where have seen this situation, one by one panic, Hailan originally wanted to slip away, but the scene of the people are kneeling down, if she slipped away, but it seems obvious, can only follow along with the kneeling down, biting his lips hard, the heart inexplicably feel bad.
Just now she was just watching the fun, but at the moment when the nunnery’s quilt was torn, she suddenly felt that it had something to do with herself, could it be that those silver tickets were the ones that she had given to this nunnery all those years ago? In addition to years ago, recently she also gave, so this seal is new?
“What happened here?” After Yue Wenhan came in, he looked at the disorganized room, and then looked at the people present, and asked in a slow voice.
This scene is something at first glance.
“Adult, no … nothing is going on, just … just want some old accounts.” Wang Wu panicked, how could he not think that the Yamen would suddenly appear at this time, this kind of place, not to mention the momentum so full of adults, even if it is a small official can not be seen.
How could it be such a coincidence that we would actually meet in this town.
He didn t intend to report to the police, he really didn t intend to report to the police, but … why is there an official here, why does it happen to meet?
“You say!” Yue Wenhan looked to the side at the nunnery master whose face was ashen and whose lips were trembling, ignoring Wang Wu.
“My lord …” Wang Wu still wanted to speak, but was blocked by a magistrate who then took a piece of cloth.
“Speak!” The accompanying sitting magistrate scolded the nunnery master in a stern voice.
“Big … adults, nothing much, he … he is the nephew of the old nunnery master here, the poor nun was saved by the old nunnery master back in the day, now even if there is some what… …is also not in the way, must be the nephew of the benefactor, he lacks some money, poor Ni these savings are given to him is also possible!”
The nun settled down, his words gradually slipping out.
Listening to the crowd of perfumers nodded their heads, thinking that this nunnery owner is a good person, all this time, still defending the scoundrel Wang Wu, who can see that Wang Wu is intentionally come to cause trouble today.
Remembering the old nunnery, this current nunnery is a reminder of the old ways.
“Not going to report to the police?” Yue Wenhan asked with a grim face.
“It is not going to … be the nephew of the old nunnery owner, and this money will be regarded as repaying the favor.” The nunnery owner lowered her head and wiped the corners of her eyes, her eyes worked.
“Just let the person go?” Yue Wenhan asked again.
“Let it go, take the money as well, it’s all the poor nun’s savings for so many years.” The nun lowered his head and sighed, “I only hope that there won’t be such a thing in the future, be good, the old nun is such a good person, he is bound to be unwilling to see his nephew become such a person.”
The meaning of compassion in these words, listening to the surrounding incense, one by one secretly nodded, some even intend to open their mouths to help the nunnery master to say a few words.
As for Wang Wu, every single person who knows someone who thinks it’s good, that’s a real scoundrel!
“People can be let go.” Yue Wenhan said.
The nun breathed a sigh of relief, the look on her face slightly improved, but in the next moment, her face suddenly became stiff, translucent with a few embarrassing shades of green and white.
“Such a large amount of silver bills, you inside this nunnery can’t possibly get it even if you don’t eat or drink for twenty years, can you ask the nunnery master if the party’s claim of scheming for money and killing people really exists?”
Yue Wenhan took the silver ticket sent to his hands by the guards and shook it, “Plotting to kill people with money, that’s the crime of killing the head, it’s never something that can be escaped with a few words.”
“No … no, poor nun … poor nun … did not … “The nunnery owner’s forced composure could not be controlled for a moment and snapped.
“This silver ticket has to be explained, this packet of medicine, is it also to be explained?” Yue Wenhan again from the hands of another guard, received a small package of medicine, reached out in front of the nunnery master waved, “This looks to be a life-causing poison ah, the nunnery master can have to think about how to answer, otherwise … the criminal law is not forgiving, this official Da Lisi lesser secretary, specializing in handling this kind of case. ”
The nun’s whole body froze, her lips trembled and she couldn’t say a word, this medicine bag was of course also placed inside the quilt, sandwiched between the silver tickets, for so many years, she had never used it again, the reason why she kept it was also a deliberate caution, who knew that it would be searched out all of a sudden today.
“As for this silver ticket, this official also has to check where it came from, as for who it originally belonged to, it’s actually not difficult to check it!” As if he didn’t see the nunnery owner’s eyes bulging out, Yue Wenhan flung the silver ticket again.
The silver tickets were new and old, and the denominations were not small, so with the ability of the Yamen, a careful check should have been recorded.
Letting this lord in front of him find out is naturally better than confessing it himself, after the dilemma of deciding, the nun decided to go with the latter, reaching out and pointing to Hailan who was kneeling in the crowd, “My lord, the silver ticket was given to the poor nuns by the lady of the house, as for the rest the poor nuns really don’t know anything about it.”
Hailan had been looking for a chance to escape, hearing the words of the nunnery master, shocked almost in disbelief, raised her eyes to the nunnery master, but met Yue Wenhan’s grim eyes, and then Yue Wenhan smiled slightly, cold, she could not help but go limp.
“Men, take this slave girl’s her madam back to the court along with her!”
