Struggle in Ancient Times
Chapter 153.1 Table of contents

As long as Quan Cai pressed the red seal, it meant that he would live the next three years, days and nights without rest.

Quan Cai didn’t want to. He wanted to gamble, he wanted to drink, he wanted to sleep on his broken wooden bed every day. He didn’t want to spend time in a dark cell with those people. He didn’t want to be beaten, and he didn’t know if he would come out alive after three years.

He struggled with all his strength and kept begging for mercy.

“My lord, my lord! Just let me go. I really know that I was wrong. I will never dare to do it again. I will definitely be obedient in the future. Wife, wife, please talk for me. I won’t beat you anymore, I’ll give you all the money, and I will never misuse a penny of the family’s money from now on.”

Seeing how miserable his husband was in begging for mercy, Jinli’s mother mustered up the courage to ask the man sitting in the high hall. The man who could decide life and death with one glance, he begged softly: “Sir, please let him go. He knows he was wrong. I believe he will correct it.”

This was the first time Liao Tingyu saw him speak, but he didn’t expect the shuanger actually spoke for his husband.

“You said you asked me to let him go, do you mean that my sentence was wrong?” Liao Tingyu was almost laughed out of anger. He was trying to give him justice!

Of course, Jinli’s mother did not dare to say that the magistrate was at fault: “No, it’s not like that. It’s all my child’s fault. He doesn’t understand the situation. Sir, please forgive my child this time. Let my husband go. He didn’t do anything. He has corrected himself a lot since the magistrate first educated him. I believe he will never dare to do it again in the future.”

The old doctor, who had been paying close attention to this matter, heard his words and scolded him fiercely, ‘This shuanger is simply stupid, I did not know what evil thing that child Jinli had done in his previous life to be reincarnated into this family.’

Quan Cai nodded quickly when he heard his wife speaking for him and said, “That’s right, sir. All these are just nonsense from child who don’t know the situation. Master, you have to believe me. His wounds were all caused by himself. I really haven’t done anything, I’m very obedient.”

Jinli was also shocked by this situation. He couldn’t help but wonder whether what he did was right. He obviously wanted to let his mother out of the sea of suffering.

He thought that as long as his mother separated from his father, according to the magistrate’s judgment, his father had to serve for three years. After he came out, he would be old and could no longer be fierce. He would also get married by then, and there was no need to be afraid of his father. The magistrate also gave them a tea shop, so they didn’t need to worry about their livelihood, this business could support the two of them.

He didn’t expect that his mother was so inseparable from his father, blaming him alone for everything. Could what he said be false? Every night when his father lost money, he would hit him with his fists or kick him. Now both of them blamed him.

Jinli lowered his head, not wanting to get involved. He originally thought he was thinking about his mother, but he didn’t expect that the only thing his mother cared about was his father.

Didn’t he know that if the magistrate accused him to make a false accusation, he would enter the cell, and if he, a shuanger, entered a prison, how could he get married in the future?

Did he ever think that because of his father’s presence, many people didn’t dare to come to their house to propose marriage, and he was left alone until now?

.

Liao Tingyu looked at the situation in the courtroom and felt as if he had not met such a strange person today.

What did it mean to treat kindness as a dung? This was it.

The old doctor felt that one person was fighting all alone and wanted to go in. He followed the man at the door and said, “This elder brother please let me go in, and I will help the child testify.”

The yamen officer passed it on, and Liao Tingyu looked at the old doctor and shook his head. He believed in the old man’s character. Although this old man was said to be stubborn, he was the one who reminded him about Zhao Han’s affairs.

“Tell him and reassure him. I know how to do it. And tell the old man to relax and don’t think so much. It will be fine.” Liao Tingyu whispered to the yamen servant.

The yamen servant nodded and passed on the words. Tears filled the old doctor’s eyes. He had devoted his whole life to doing good, practicing medicine to accumulate blessings, and gaining the respect and trust of others. Some people always said that he was too noisy. But finally, there was someone who understood him and told him that he was doing the right thing.
