Chapter 1633: I Can Sue You Again
Qian Fangli was in shock and disbelief. He couldn't wait for the witnesses to finish speaking and pointed at Shu Yu, shouting, "It's her! She did it! Officials, it's her who is framing me!"
Everyone was startled by his sudden scream. All eyes turned to him and then followed his pointing finger to Shu Yu.
Shu Yu's smile faded from her face, replaced by a look of suspicion. Then, she stood up in shock and anger, exclaiming, "Qian Fangli, wh...

Chapter 1632: We Are prefect Government Officials from the Prefectural City
The leading official had an emotionless expression as he spoke, "We are Prefect government officials from the prefectural City. Qian Fangli, you are suspected of instructing others to steal, spreading false rumors, and committing great disrespect. We are here on orders from the Prefect Magistrate to take you to the prefectural yamen. Please come with us."

Magistrate Xie nodded with a serious expression, "This matter is of great importance. In the past, I would have informed Magistrate Peng about it since it falls under his jurisdiction. He could have punished Master Qian and restrained him. However, I sent constable Jiang to Donggu County, but Magistrate Peng has been avoiding us. I have reasons to suspect that he may be shielding Qian Fangli, and these rumors might be under his instigation."<...

Chapter 1630: The Plan is Going Smoothly
The next day, the two constables, Jiang and his partner, went to the county government again, but they still didn't see Magistrate Peng.
Jiang was so angry this time that he almost cursed someone and even impulsively thought of going to the Qian family to arrest people himself.
Once again, they were forcefully "invited" to leave, and Jiang cursed under his breath before turning to leave. "Let's go back to the county town."

Ying Dong and Dazhuang watched as Master Qian returned home feeling relieved, and they immediately split up to take action.
Dazhuang continued to spread the rumors, while Ying Dong stationed himself near the city gate, waiting for the officials from Jiangyuan County.
He didn't have to wait long before he saw two constables galloping over on fast horses.
The leading constable was indeed the one Jiangyuan Constable that Shu Yu had ...

As Shu Yu said, it was too late at the county yamen to proceed with the trial, but the suspects still had a place to be detained. Zhang Qing was taken into custody by the official, and Shu Yu returned home directly.
The next day, as expected, Magistrate Xie was the first to question the theft case involving Zhang Qing. Shu Yu got up early, dressed neatly, and had the Liang couple prepared and accompanied by the officials to the county yamen.

Shu Yu looked puzzled and glanced at Lu Dasong standing behind her.
As Shu Yu's uncle, Lu Dasong was the most concerned about this matter, so he came to the county.
At this moment, he couldn't help but rub his head and chuckled softly as he whispered to her, "The shoe print on his clothes was indeed left by Zhang Qing's father during the chaos, but as for his hair..." It was Zhao Xi who intentionally pulled it out on the way back.

Zhao Xi felt an inexplicable sympathy for the Qian family. It seems that old Master Qian couldn't think straight.
The first time he stole, one could let it pass, but now he's attempting a second time.
Could it be because last time Shu Yu didn't confront him, he thought she didn't have any background and wouldn't dare to challenge him, so he took advantage of the situation?
He didn't consider that last time Shu Yu was b...

The Qian family used to be in the tea business, but now they plan to turn the tea workshop into a sunflower seed workshop. It's been over a month, so it should be almost done.

It's not the first time; he did it last time too. Zhang Qing said that Master Qian had tried to plant the stolen seeds, but they didn't grow well.

She took a sip of water and asked Dazhuang to continue.
