Frame-Up

【frame】

As the ox cart entered the village and passed by the bridge that was being built, someone shouted, "Mr. Ning, your wife is back!"

Su Liang was a little surprised to see the villagers making fun of Ning Jing. read

М

This man has a cold and repulsive look on his face, but he is also very easy-going in his heart. Apart from not being able to laugh and not being fond of talking, there is nothing wrong with him.

Their eyes met, Su Liang nodded slightly and said hello, but did not get out of the car.

Ning Jing withdrew his gaze and continued working.

When Su Liang was crossing the bridge to go home with the bamboo basket on his back, he saw Bai Xiaohu running over holding the pillar.

Bai Xiaohu smiled brightly, "Sister Su Liang! You are back!"

Zhu Zhu looked at Su Liang timidly and called out, "Sister..."

Su Liang chuckled and rubbed Zhu Zhu's furry little head.

"Sister Su Liang, someone is coming to buy your plum blossom screen today! He even said that he made a deal with Su Xiaoming!" Bai Xiaohu told Su Liang about the plum blossom screen.

Su Liang was stunned for a moment, "Who is he?"

"The woman in the carriage didn't show her face. There was a maid. My grandma said she was a noble person from the county. My uncle said..." Bai Xiaohu's small face carefully repeated what Aunt Bai and Bai He said during lunch.

Su Liang originally thought that Xu had sold the original owner's embroidery to the embroidery shop, but unexpectedly, there was a regular and "mysterious" buyer.

Since those requests were made, Bai He's guess was also what Su Liang thought.

There is a person who has been passing off the original owner's hard work as his own, and now wants to get the Plum Blossom Screen.

It seems that I have given up and left today, but I am afraid this matter is not over yet...

"Brother Ning said we can sell it to them, how much do you think it will cost?" Bai Xiaohu chuckled.

Su Liang raised his eyebrows, "Ten thousand taels of gold?"

Bai Xiaohu's eyes widened, "How did you know?"

The corners of Su Liang's lips curled up slightly, "I will also offer this price."

When he got home and put down his backpack, Su Liang sat Zhu Zhu down and took his pulse.

Bai Xiaohu said quickly, "My father is going to town today to sell furniture. I heard that a famous doctor from the capital will be sitting in Bao'an Hall for three days. He will take his brother to see a doctor tomorrow!"

Bai Peng was entrusted by Su Liang to take a cart of Su Daqiang's furniture to the town to sell it early in the morning, and then went to help build the bridge when he came back.

Su Liang didn't meet Bai Peng, but he knew about the "three-day consultation by a famous doctor".

"Okay, let's go and have a look." Su Liang nodded.

She has her own ideas about healing Zhu Zhu.

But to the Bai family, the famous doctor in the capital was just like the people queuing up outside the medical clinic today. It was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that should not be missed.

Su Liang also needs to understand the level of medical skills and types of medicinal materials in this world before he can practice medicine.

…

As the sun sets, the bridge in the village is repaired.

Ning Jing could see the smoke curling up from the kitchen in the distance. When he entered the door, the aroma wafted from the kitchen.

Su Liang turned around and saw that Ning Jing's trouser legs and shoes were covered with mud, but his clear and clean face did not look like he had returned from building a bridge.

"What did you do?" Ning Jing asked.

"Pork ribs and beans braised rolls."

Ningjing has never heard of a dish name. The first half of it is understandable, but the last three words are incomprehensible.

The ribs were just bought, the beans were picked yesterday evening, and the rolls were made by Su Liang.

There are vegetables, meat and staple food, all served in one pot.

Also cook cucumber and egg soup to relieve greasiness. Cucumbers and eggs were bought from the Bai family.

After Ningjing finished washing and changed clothes, Su Liang filled out a bowl of vegetables, half of which was pork ribs, and asked him to deliver it to the Bai family, saying that he would treat the two children to food and thank them for helping to look after the house today.

Bai Xiaohu and Zhuzi were very happy.

Aunt Bai chased Ning Jing out and told him to be careful at night.

…

Ning Jing tasted a stick of beans first and nodded slightly, "Not bad."

The beans that have soaked up the gravy still have their own sweetness, crispness and tenderness.

Tasting a piece of roll, Ning Jing nodded again.

The pork ribs are braised until crispy, not salty but not bland just right.

Take another sip of the fresh and refreshing soup and feel comfortable all over.

"There may still be trouble about Meihuaping." Su Liang said.

"Do you want to keep that screen forever?" Ning Jing asked back.

Su Liang shook his head, "I want to send this message to my relatives or friends who really care about her. She seems to have a man she admires, whose surname is Yun or whose name contains the character 'Yun'."

Ning Jing's beautiful brows frowned slightly, "If you plan to give the plum blossom screen to that 'Yun', how can you explain that you are not her?"

Su Liang was stunned for a moment, "That's a problem. We'll talk about it later. In short, we must not sell it."

…

Late at night.

There were no lights in Ningjing's room, and the window was open. He sat by the window and could see the light leaking from the next room and shining on the ground.

Su Liang focused on practicing calligraphy and wrote more, and finally found the feeling.

Hearing a noise behind the house, Ningjing put on a bamboo hat, covered her face with a black scarf, and disappeared into the room.

…

A group of government officials were walking up the mountain.

"Boss, haven't we searched everything here? Why did you let me come here?"

"That's right! I searched the mountain during the day and couldn't find anything. I came in the middle of the night and couldn't even see anything!"

Listening to the complaints one after another, the head catcher shouted coldly, "Shut up, everyone! Sir, come here, someone has provided important clues! Look for it quickly, don't miss any place!"

A team of government officials carried lanterns and searched the mountain carefully.

Next to the last arrester was a man who looked similar to him.

"Brother," the man pulled the catcher's head and asked in a low voice, "What's going on?"

The head of the police looked around and said in a low voice, "The family down the mountain has offended the adults. The evidence of the murder has been arranged. When we find Mr. Huang's bloody clothes in the mountains later, we will go down and arrest him!"

As soon as the head of the police finished speaking, two stones came through the wind and hit them hard!

Only a ghostly black shadow was seen, and the two fainted on the ground, unconscious.

One after another, the yamen runners fell one by one, without even having the chance to make any sound.

Until the last one, he watched the "ghost" float in front of him and knocked him out with a palm...

...

Su Liang rubbed his sore neck, yawned, got up and went out, going to the backyard to the toilet.

A black shadow landed lightly in the yard, and Su Liang's expression froze, "Who?"

"It's me." The "black shadow" spoke, a familiar voice.

Su Liang felt relieved, "Where have you been?"

"The back mountain." Ning Jing took off his bamboo hat and black scarf, and walked over with a ball of things in his hand.

"What is that?" Su Liang had a hunch that something was going on.

"Bloody clothes." Ning Jing told Su Liang that the county magistrate had sent someone to frame them for the death of Mr. Huang.

Su Liang frowned, "County magistrate? Could it be that the lady who wanted the plum blossom screen was the county magistrate's daughter?"

Otherwise, it couldn't be so coincidental.

Ning Jing took the bloody clothes to the backyard and set it on fire.

As for the yamen runners, they were just unconscious and were dragged to the woods outside the village by him.

"Since she wants the plum blossom screen so much, it would be a pity not to extort a lot from her." Su Liang snorted coldly.

People don't fight officials.

But if the officials want you dead, that's another matter.

Su Liang didn't want to cause trouble, but he was definitely not afraid of it.

The original owner was exploited so badly, and the "buyer" also "made an indelible contribution".

"Okay, let's go to the city tomorrow." Ning Jing nodded.
