Chapter 2397 The Shu Family’s Reward

Wu was already beaten by the Shu family. After a period of low self-esteem, her temperament became much more sensitive.

Faced with these rumors, Wu had no choice but to passively endure them. Even after returning to their parents' home, the sisters-in-law became much silent, and the nephew did not dare to go out to play.

Now, her meritorious service has been recognized by the emperor, she has been freed from the crime, and she has also been rewarded with a silver reward.

Mrs. Wu was ecstatic, and Aunt Fang hurriedly reminded her. She immediately took a deep breath and kowtowed three times.

She didn't go out either. She just smiled happily at the Wu family outside the door and waited quietly aside, continuing to listen to the county magistrate's announcement.

The Shu family was already numb, and Shu Quan thought that this would be it, it would eventually be his turn.

Next, the county magistrate read out the rewards for several villagers who had helped in this operation, and finally, his eyes fell on the heads of the Shu family.

"Shu Quan stepped forward to listen to the order."

Shu Quan perked up and held his breath.

Shu Quan also contributed a lot to this operation. If Shu Feng hadn't been one of the masterminds this time, Shu Quan might have been able to reap more benefits.

But the reward given by the emperor was exactly what the Shu family wanted.

Today, the second room of the Shu family, except for the fourth girl Shu Zhao who is married, and the sixth girl Shu Qing who followed Aunt Hou back to Beijing early, there are only Shu Quan, the second wife of the Shu family, Aunt Liu, and a girl who is thirteen this year. Year old bastard.

This time all of them were freed from their criminal status, and Shu Quan received a reward of fifty taels of silver and allowed them to return to their original places of origin.

The Shu family exhaled a long breath, and the voice of Xie En was especially loud.

After the county magistrate's imperial edict was read out, he said to everyone present, "The emperor's grace has forgiven your crimes and punishments. I hope you will abide by the law and self-discipline in the future and never do anything harmful to others or yourself. Tomorrow, you will go Let’s go to the Yamen to process the household registration documents.”

"Yes, sir."

The county magistrate then handed over to Shu Yu and Mr. Meng, "I still have something to do and cannot stay here for a long time. If the county lord and Mr. Meng have any instructions, just leave them to Wang Changdong and Mr. Yu."

"You're welcome, sir. Please help yourself. We're just here to see our friends." Meng Yuncheng said.

The county magistrate nodded and quickly left.

As soon as he left, a lively noise broke out outside Zhuangzi. This time, many people in Zhengdao Village were immediately exonerated from their crimes, especially the Wu family, who was surrounded by several brothers and went home proudly and proudly. Go.

Shu Yu smiled and turned to ask the Xu family and Fang family, "Now that the imperial edict has been issued, you will be free when you go to the Yamen tomorrow to complete the household registration documents. When do you plan to return to the capital?"

Xu Dali thought for a while, "Zhensheng's health is almost better. He has an errand for Dali Temple now. We don't want to delay for too long, lest we make any mistakes. We will go to the Yamen tomorrow and see if there is an escort carriage. Go to the capital, we will set off the day after tomorrow."

Aunt Fang said hurriedly, "Ma Lu and A Yue will come later. It just so happens that you are both going to the capital, and you will have a companion on the way."

Fang Xiyue was shocked, "Mom..." She had just digested that she wanted to separate from her parents, but she was about to leave directly without giving her any time to buffer?

Father Fang waved his hand, "It's not good for Zhensheng to delay Dali Temple's errands, and it's definitely not good for Ma Lu to delay Master Qi's affairs. Master Qi has helped us so much, so we should do our best to do things."
