Lin Youwen is not stupid. Not to mention that the master and the two yamen runners have no business with him, he would not admit it even if there was any business.

He was afraid that he would implicate the county magistrate and make things out of control, which would not be beneficial to him.

But the county magistrate wanted to perform a show for Yuqing and his stupid son, and beat the master and the two yamen runners each with twenty boards, because they didn't do a good job.

The case was finally lifted up by him and gently put it down and resolved.

But the onlookers felt that the county magistrate was fair and selfless and did not shelter his subordinates.

The case was over, and the county magistrate asked deliberately: "Ms. Lin Si, are you still satisfied with the handling of this official?"

Yuqing hurriedly replied respectfully: "Since you have already investigated and learned that the master and the yamen runners are innocent, even if they did not work well, they could just scold them, but the adults punished them. The adults are really too strict~"

The county magistrate said, "It's better to be strict, otherwise everyone would not be willing to be a good job", but he was cursing in his heart.

Since I think he is too strict, why don’t I stop him before the execution? I will only say it now?

Because the county magistrate stipulated that when the Lin family handed over all the mortgaged items to He family, they would let Lin Youwen come out.

So within half an hour, Mrs. Lin personally ordered all the heads, faces and clothes of all the female members of the Lin family to carry.

There are quite a lot of clothes, more than ten loads.

But the face of the head was greatly discounted. Most of them were silver jewelry, with few gold jewelry, and there were not a single piece of jewelry.

Mrs. Lin was so miserable that she said, "I have brought my body and my head and face. Please let my son go." After that, she started crying.

Yuqing asked what her head was and returned it to her.

Such a big dowry can't be recovered, how could Yuqing make her mother and daughter unfilial for the sake of her worthless face?

Yuqing said to Mrs. Lin: "How can I, my mother and daughter, catch Mr. Lin? Did the old lady ask for the wrong person? If you ask for it, please ask Master Qingtian."

After saying that, she ignored her and ordered Hanshan to invite a few pawnshop shop owners to sell all the clothes and faces.

After a while, Hanshan hired several pawnshop shopkeepers.

Yuqing bargained with the shopkeepers in turn, and finally sold the things to the shopkeeper who had the highest bid, and exchanged them for more than 600 taels of silver.

It was already dark by then.

Yuqing secretly asked Hanshan if it would fly over the eaves and walls.

Hanshan said shyly: "I have learned some martial arts with a troubled martial arts man before, and I can also learn some skills in flying over the eaves and walls, but I am not very lean."

"Just know," Yuqing whispered: "I guess, once Lin Youwen is released, the county magistrate will definitely discuss the matter of sharing the spoils with him.

I want you to go to the Lin family to eavesdrop after dinner and wait until it gets dark, see how they divide the spoils and come back to tell me."

Then he solemnly reminded: "Remember, don't let others discover you."

Hanshan nodded with a solemn expression.

Yuqing returned to the small courtyard where her mother and daughter lived, and He and others were waiting for her to have dinner together.

After dinner, He had to take her sisters to the back garden for the first time.

Yuqing knew that He had something to tell them. Only by going to the back garden would there be no maid from Shen's house beside her, and her mother and daughter could speak with peace of mind.

Mrs. He asked her: "We have got all the money we can get, the case has been settled, so we should move out of Shen's mansion."

Yuqing also wanted to stay in Shen's mansion for another two days so that Hanshan would eavesdrop on two more days to see if he could eavesdrop on some useful news.

Therefore, I found a very reluctant excuse, saying that the rented house needs to be cleaned and organized before it can be lived in, and I was disturbed in Shen's house for two more days.

He and others had no choice but to rely on her.

It was the hour of Hai in a blink of an eye.

As soon as Yuqing fell asleep in a daze, she heard someone knocking on her window.

She suddenly woke up, got out of bed, tiptoed to the window, and was about to secretly open the window a little, when she heard an extremely low voice coming from outside: "Master, it's a slave, Hanshan."

Yuqing hurriedly opened the window and reached out to grab Hanshan: "Come in!"

She asked Hanshan to come in because she was considering that he would have something to say when he came to her so late.

Her master and servant, one inside the house and the other outside the house, was easily discovered by slaves who were patrolling the Shen Mansion, which would ruin her reputation and make her speak safer when she came in.

Hanshan dared not enter Yuqing's boudoir, but she pulled it very hard.

He was also worried that someone would see him coming to see the fourth lady in the middle of the night, and mistakenly thought they had an affair, and he would not even be able to clean it even if he jumped into the Yellow River.

He was not willing to die, and he was so sad that the lady was so sad that she could not refuse even if she died, so she still followed the window and came in.

Yuqing immediately closed the window, turned around and saw Hanshan carrying a big bag on his back, looking at her crampedly.

Yuqing got straight to the point: "What's the matter with me when you are so anxious?"

Hanshan handed her the big bag in his hand: "I stole this from Lin Mansion."

"What's inside?" Yu Qing took the big bag and was still full of depression.

She opened the bag and saw that in addition to the head, there were also many gold and silver ingots, even strings of copper coins and many silver notes.

Although there was no wax in the house and only the moonlight shining in from the window, all of the heads and faces were shining brightly.

Yuqing picked up a piece of head and face and looked at it in the moonlight. Isn’t this He’s head and face?

She asked in surprise: "How did you steal these?"

Seeing that she was so happy, Hanshan knew that he had done the right thing.

"That's right. The master asked the slave to go to the Lin family to eavesdrop tonight. As soon as the slave climbed up the roof, he heard the screams of women from a yard and begging for mercy.

The slave was curious and sneaked onto the roof of the house where the sound came.

After listening to the conversation between a man and a woman in the room, the one who identified the man was Mr. Lin and the woman was Aunt Rong.

Mr. Lin was so angry that Aunt Rong was beaten by betraying him because Aunt Rong took the initiative to run to the yamen to beat the drum and betray him.

Aunt Rong confessed to the master, saying that it was all the master who threatened her with her child, so she had no choice but to do that.

Just as Aunt Rong was beaten to death, someone came in to report that a distinguished guest had arrived.

Upon hearing this, Mr. Lin left Aunt Rong and went to the outer study room in the front yard.

The outer study room was not far from Aunt Rong's residence. The slave could hear the conversation inside at the location at that time, so he was less moved than quiet and still stayed there.

As expected, it was exactly the same as the owner’s guess, and the county magistrate came to Lin’s mansion to share the spoils.”

Speaking of this, he looked at Yuqing with admiration.

Yuqing smiled slightly.

It is not surprising that she can guess this, she can guess it with a little reasoning.

Whether it is the county magistrate or Wang Dalong, no one can do anything for Lin Youwen before getting money.

But it is impossible for Lin Youwen to do nothing, so he pays the full amount.

So he would only pay part of the money first, and then pay another part of the money when the matter is successfully resolved.
