After Transmigration, I Reached The Top of My Life - Chapter 78
Liu Chengfeng listened to the case as quietly as a chicken.
He also hated Liu Lin a little in his heart.
He used to be a rigid and upright person, but now he had tasted the benefits of being flattered by both sides, and he felt that he could reach a higher level. Originally, Liu Lin’s previous affairs affected his career, and now it was still happening!
No need to think too much, there must be one item in his performance evaluation that indicates lax governance!
He rolled his eyes, feeling that he should save something.
Then he went to Zhuo Bang! He raised his hand and said: “Sir! Now is the critical time for the construction of the town. If such a case occurs, it will have a bad impact. I suggest you punish him severely!”
Liu Lin raised his head fiercely!
Zhuo Bang smiled: “What is Master Liu’s advice?”
Liu Chengfeng looked upright and said: “If you kill two people in a row, you should be killed according to the law!”
He said so categorically that Liu Lin’s face turned pale.
He originally thought that Liu Chengfeng would speak for him, but it didn’t happen…
Zhuo Bang glanced at Liu Chengfeng and saw that he stood upright with his hands lowered and became silent after speaking. Instead, he laughed: “Master Liu is indeed noble and upright. I think this sentence is good and fair, what do you think?”
Their current law was indeed the saying that killing one person must pay for one life. Now that Liu Lin had killed two, he must be sentenced to death.
.
Probably only Liu Lin knew the pain in his heart.
He thought he could be sentenced to exile like last time, but who knew that his brother-in-law would follow others to trap him? Immediately sentenced to death!
The laws at that time were strict and basically eliminated any way to escape through the back door. In addition, even if he emptied his family fortune, he couldn’t buy his life.
There was no hope for the rest of his life.
Liu Lin was hit hard and sat on the ground in a daze.
After everyone had dispersed, Jiang Zhou stood up from his seat, put down the cup of cold tea in his hand, and smiled: “We’ve finished watching the show and the tea has gone cold. It’s time to leave.”
Liu Lin said nothing, stared at him blankly for a long time, and squeezed out a sentence: “Are you happy?”
Jiang Zhou smiled: “Of course I am happy, evil people have their own destiny, now that you have received the punishment you deserve, how can I be unhappy?”
He actually didn’t mean to say too much. In the final analysis, Liu Lin couldn’t stand the critics and look down upon by others. Coupled with his greed for money and being driven by interests, he did something wrong after all, and he should naturally bear the consequences.
Originally, Liu Lin was sentenced to exile, and the grudge between Jiang Zhou and him was actually resolved. Later, he was luckily pardoned, and Jiang Zhou didn’t say anything. It was just luck, but he didn’t the man still wanted to harm him.
Liu Lin imitated his business and maliciously lowered prices to compete. When a tourist town was built, he deliberately opened an inn next to him. However, these imitated businesses were not as good as the original ones. He was unwilling to accept it. On the one hand, he was indeed stimulated by Zhou Ming and the woman. On the other hand, he killed someone to steal money and then threw the body into the Jiang Zhou’s Inn, attempting to frame Jiang Zhou. However, he was eventually caught and faced the consequences.
If Jiang Zhou was wronged, he would naturally not be polite.
This matter had been out of Liu Lin’s control since the murder weapon was found. Jiang Zhou was cleared of suspicion. He just stayed out of the matter and had nothing to do with Liu Lin. Later, he helped Zhuo Bang solve the case. On the one hand, it was really for the sake of the town and the inn, for the sake of his reputation. On the other hand, he also confirmed that the murderer behind the scenes was probably Liu Lin, so he actively helped to investigate the case.
He was not a villain, and he would not retaliate for his anger, but he will would let others take advantage of him.
.
Jiang Zhou helped Zhuo Bang investigate the case. He went out before dawn these days, which made Wen Yan very worried. Although Jiang Zhou had already told him, he was still worried. Until the next day, Jiang Zhou came back early in the morning, which relieved Wen Yan.
Although Wen Yan was already experienced in his second pregnancy, he was still a little uncomfortable with it. Xiao Yu was quite considerate when he was in his belly, but this second unidentified baby was really a little monster, which made Wen Yan restless. His taste also changed day by day. Yesterday he wanted something sour, today he wanted something spicy, and then he wanted something salty and juicy.
Jiang Zhou had been thinking about this when he came back, but he couldn’t find a suitable one at the food court. After thinking about it for a long time, he went to the east alley and bought a pound of small yellow croaker, and asked someone to clean it up before taking it home.
As soon as he entered the door, Wen Yan covered his nose: “It smells so strong of fish.”
Jiang Zhou took a step back and leaned against the door with a smile: “You have a very sharp nose now. In the past, you would only now after I am close to you.”
“Usually, I could smell from close by, but today I can smell it from far away.”
Seeing the shyness on Wen Yan’s face, Jiang Zhou couldn’t help but want to tease him: “Could it be that our baby will be born on the year of dog?”
Wen Yan wrinkled his nose: “You’re teasing me again.”
Jiang Zhou laughed happily: “Don’t worry, I wouldn’t dare to tease you. What if you make me sleep under the bed later?”
“How could…” Wen Yan lowered his head, feeling reluctant to engage in such a conversation. It was too much, so he couldn’t say anything, he just blushed quietly.
Jiang Zhou loved the way he looked with his cheeks turning red, as if he was about to say something, but he still had the fish in his hand and didn’t want to bother him. He just said, “I’ll talk to you after I finish frying the yellow croaker.”
Wen Yan helped him. A basin of water was brought to him in the kitchen, and then he asked, “Is the case over?”
“It was settled last night.” Jiang Zhou was sitting in the yard outside the door, cleaning up yellow croakers, while telling him about the case. Wen Yan was startled and sighed: “Those two people are really pitiful.”
Jiang Zhou said casually: “That woman was really sharp-tongued and said those ugly things in front of others, but the deceased has passed away, so there’s not much to say.”
Wen Yan fell silent.
The small yellow croakers were all about one finger long, so cleaning them was quite troublesome. Jiang Zhou patiently shaved off the fish scales one by one with scissors, cleaned out all the uncleaned internal organs, rinsed them, and threw them into the basin. Afterwards, he poured the cleaning water far away so that Wen Yan wouldn’t smell it, washed his hands inside and out, and washed them with soap until they were fragrant before he dared to hug Wen Yan: “How are you today?”
Today was sunny and windy outside, the willow leaves had sprouted their buds, the air after the thunderstorm was filled with the fragrance of earth, and the sunshine was warm, as if one’s entire life had been immersed in this boundless spring scenery.
Wen Yan smiled and said, “It’s good.”
‘It’s always been good to have you by my side.’
