"Eldest daughter-in-law...... People are dying, how can you still be so ruthless?" Grandpa Chen slapped the table with tears in his eyes and scolded angrily.

"No money! I have to die anyway, why waste money on a dead man? With that spare money, it's enough for Ping'er to marry a daughter-in-law again!" Miao Rencui relied on the housekeeper and refused to reveal where the money was hidden.

In the final analysis, Miao Rencui still can't see Liu Daidi's goodness, if he hadn't provoked it, how could his son be distracted by him?

"Isn't there still ten taels left? It's important to save people first, how can a doll be without a father!" said Boss Chen bitterly and hatefully.

"What's the matter? Old things don't need to be old-aged to the end? There is only so much silver at home, and if you can take care of the old, you can't take care of the young, and besides, don't you have to drink rice soup for the milk baby......?

Grandpa Chen saw his son and daughter-in-law arguing, and sighed, if he didn't know where the silver was hidden, he would have to snatch it down to save people even if he fought for his life.

Helpless Grandpa Chen raised his head and sighed, went back to the house and walked out of the house with a rope, and let his son and daughter-in-law make noise at home.

"It's so pure!" Grandpa Chen walked towards the entrance of the village with trembling steps, and when he met a villager who asked him where he was going, he only replied with a smile, "Go and accompany my wife, remember to let the boss take the silver to save my good granddaughter-in-law"

The villagers didn't know why, so they muttered to themselves and went home. Thinking about it at night, I always felt that something was not right, so I hurriedly put on my clothes and went to the village chief's house to discuss.

The old village chief scolded secretly, gathered the villagers to search around, and finally found the hanged Grandpa Chen on Grandma Chen's grave......

On the pear tree next to the new grave hangs a dead old man, who speaks silently of this sorrow with the morning breeze.

Thinking of the sentence that Grandpa Chen often hung on his lips, "raising children to prevent old age", the village chief scolded with tears in his eyes: "What is the use of keeping such unworthy descendants?"

Early in the morning, the indignant villagers beat Mr. Chen and his wife with sticks, and asked where Grandpa Chen was, but the two did not know that the old man had not returned home all night. The village chief angrily accused, "Boss Chen, Miao Rencui forced your father to death, do you know or not?"

Boss Chen froze on the ground, and muttered in a daze, "Daddy...... My son is not filial."

As for how this hospital will be sanctioned by the village, Chen Ping didn't care about it, and he couldn't care about it, so he rushed to the town early in the morning with his son in his arms, and pawned all the belongings before pulling his daughter-in-law out of the hospital.

"Son, you may grow up to be as useless as Daddy, Daddy is begging and asking for a good family for you to upbring" Chen Ping sat on the ox cart and hugged his son tightly, and whispered to his daughter-in-law:

"I'm sorry, Daidi...... It's useless to husband, and you have to ignore your deathbed trust...... It's better to work long hours for people than to follow me. After all, I am a dou who can't be helped, I have a big brother's upbringing, I don't talk about a good life, but I can be an upright person"

Liu Daidi, who was in a coma, twitched the corners of her mouth slightly, and silently shed a tear, all of which were dried in the cold wind of early summer......

The comfortable old house is still ushering in a new day as usual.

Chen Qing got up early in the morning to wash, packed up Yuanyuan and sent it to the second sister-in-law's house to help watch.

At this time, it is the season when weeds are emerging, and it is better to compete with them for nutrients in the field.

When I went back to the house, I put on my old clothes and was about to go out, and as soon as I opened the door, I saw a futon in front of the door. Opened it and looked, the bluffing Chen Qing was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly stepped forward and called, "Take Di...... Takedi?"

When the baby woke up, hungry and crying, Chen Qing hurriedly picked up the soft baby, turned around and shouted in the courtyard, "Second sister-in-law, second sister-in-law, come quickly......"

Shao Fengzhi had just cooked the soft and glutinous noodles for Yuanyuan, and when he heard the sound, he ran out and said, "What are you yelling about? Hell, early in the morning...... Oops~ Where did this doll come from?"

"Second sister-in-law, take it away......" Chen Qing flattened his mouth, handed the hot potato to Shao Fengzhi with a frightened face, and hurriedly said without waiting for Shao Fengzhi to speak, "Don't ask yet, hurry up and carry someone in before ......"

"Hey, alas!Ziping~ Hurry up and come out to help!" Tuo Shao Fengzhi's loud voice shocked the old and young masters of the family, carried people into the house with all hands and feet, and went to the county to invite Lang Zhong to see a doctor.

After settling down and pouring the decoction, the family moved to the main hall to discuss how to deal with the father and son.

Liu Hongmei had just finished feeding the baby rice soup, untied the swaddling clothes and shouted, "There is still a letter here!"

Chen Qing opened it and looked at it, frowned and reprimanded, "This Chen Ping!

"What's wrong?" Liang Zixian took it before he persuaded out loud, "Hurry up and send someone to chase after you!" Zijun has withdrawn, and he can't take someone in again!"

Chen Qing also had this intention, and hurriedly asked Li Sanwei to stop him quickly, and he was sure to stop Chen Ping before he went to the provincial capital to surrender.

In addition to what happened to Daoming's family, the letter also included a deed of sale of the doll.

Chen Ping didn't ask for him, he only asked the Liang family to save his daughter-in-law's life for the sake of his testimony in court, regardless of whether he could save it or not, he had no complaints.

I also hope that Chen Qing can take care of his son for the sake of his repentance, whether it is a long-term job or a slave, as long as the Liang family can raise his son to adulthood, he Chen Ping will feel it in his heart.

"This Chen Ping is too, his own son, no matter how difficult it is, he can't ruthlessly sell it to outsiders!" Liu Hongmei patted the baby distressedly.

The letter was read in front of the whole family, because although everyone did not linger on the past, they were still dissatisfied with Chen Ping's approach.

Although he sincerely repented, he couldn't escape the idea of escaping responsibility, and Liu Daidi didn't know if he could be saved, how could he bear to let such a little doll be under the fence of a father and mother since childhood?

Chen Ping now threw the father and son to the Liang family, which can be said to have thrown a hot potato to the Liang family. Even if Chen Ping doesn't come to this hand, Chen Qing will not see death and not save him, but the most difficult thing to do is the baby who is waiting to be fed.

Regardless of the baby and grandpa, even if it is really entrusted to Chen Qing, could it be that he, as an "aunt", can really treat him as a subordinate?

Chen Qing is not easy to speak, and the whole family understands, after all, they are related by blood, and they can't only be educated on behalf of Chen Ping before he comes back.

"It's important to save people, wait for Chen Ping to come back and return the doll to him, after all, they are relatives, if you can help, you can help" Liang Baida sighed deeply, and he was really speechless for this family.

married Chen Qing, a good daughter-in-law, but she also had to get involved in the rotten burden of her mother's family, thanks to the benevolence and righteousness of the Liang family, otherwise everyone would have to complain a lot about her daughter-in-law.

Chen Qing also knew that he had caused trouble for the Liang family again, so he could only settle everyone in his courtyard in a big way, saying that he would take care of it.

Yuanyuan was taken away by his second sister-in-law, and Chen Qing couldn't say anything, besides, he really couldn't take care of his son now.

Liu Hongmei pretended to help, but she stayed in the house and didn't leave, Chen Qing knew what she was thinking, and threw the baby to her and said, "I can't take care of it anyway, so I bother to ask my sister-in-law to help feed my nephew."

Liu Hongmei coughed secretly, picked up the baby and slipped back to her yard.

Chen Qing couldn't help but laugh when he saw it, turned his head to see Liu Daidi who was unconscious, and muttered melancholy, "You can't die! No matter how good others are to him, it's not his own father, if you are really willing to send him to the fence, I won't say anything, but Chen Ping will not come back when he leaves...... Don't blame me for looking down on him, his personality has always been like this, he can't support himself, why should he feed the doll? So, you still have to live......

Chen Qing chattered in Liu Daidi's ear, nothing more than hoping that he would have more desire to survive.

Chen Qing has no father and mother since he was a child, so he naturally knows how hard it is for a baby without a mother. And Chen Ping's unreliable father, don't say it, even if he really comes back, no one can say what his son will look like in his hands, it is estimated that having a father is not as virtuous as not having a father.

Li San and Wei Liang chased straight to the provincial capital and did not block Chen Ping, and it was not until three days later that they knew that Chen Ping had caught a carriage and entered the city early to meet the officials.

Liu Weizhi was worried about the lack of evidence, so he interrogated Chen Ping on the spot and sent the evidence to the capital as soon as possible.

It is said that when King Jing returned to Beijing, he should have sent officials to take his place. But for some reason, the imperial court has not been able to appoint new officials to serve here, and the originally scheduled officials have been dismissed by the imperial court for delaying their responsibilities.

He Zhixian was corrupt and perverted the law, and the crime was extremely heinous, and through Chen Ping's evidence exposed, the case of framing Zhongliang was sentenced, and the charge of leaking questions in the examination room was also confirmed, and even the case of more than 10 officials in Jingzhou who jointly committed fraud was even involved.

The imperial court was arguing about the Jingzhou fraud case, and at this time, Chen Ping was guilty of evidence, and it happened that the two cases were tried at the same time.

Chen Ping was a fraudulent candidate, and he told all the truths he knew, and exposed the bribery of several newcomers in a row, and then took out the test questions bought by the imperial examination at that time, and immediately pushed the case to the light.

Even Liu Weizhi did not expect that a Chen Ping would have become the key to the verdict, if it were not for him to provide evidence, not to mention the major fraud case in Jingzhou, and even the corruption case in He Zhi County. Thinking that this person is Chen Qing's cousin, he can't help but sigh and sigh, and he invited the court overnight, hoping to see that Chen Ping would be lenient for the sake of his meritorious service.

With conclusive evidence, coupled with Qin Qin's confession, it was not long before the imperial court promulgated punishments for corrupt officials.

The major officials, including He Zhixian, were all beheaded by raiding their homes, and their families were reduced to slavery and sold for labor. The accomplice was dismissed from his official position and exiled to the bitter cold land of Mobei because of the relatively minor crime, and was not allowed to enter Beijing for the rest of his life.

At this point, the dust has finally settled on the uproarious case of fraud in the imperial examination.

After Liang Zijun rushed to the capital, he first met with Li Shoucai and told him not to show up before the case was closed.

Li Shoucai felt ashamed in his heart, and repeatedly said that he couldn't help himself, if it weren't for the Liang family's tipping report, he would have been imprisoned at this time and become a guilty body.

Liang Zijun did not complain about this, and he also instructed Chen Qing to quickly write to inform Brother Li in the morning. Besides, even if Li Shoucai came forward at that time, it would be useless, so why bother to take the Li family's Wanguan family property to deal with it?

Now, the case has been closed, he and Liao Fanzhi have escaped, although each person's circumstances are different, but fortunately, the three of them are still alive, although the Liao family has lost most of the family property, but in the end it is better to have a small life, than to save one's life, right?

Li Shoucai was sorry for the two brothers, and bluntly said that he would help the Liao family restore its former prosperity, Liang Zijun laughed and responded, "It's okay, I can't say that Brother Liao's situation is amazing, and it is unknown if he will be blessed by misfortune"

Li Shoucai shook his head and sighed, "There will be something wrong with doing things for the official family, but if you use Li, please let me know, and Li will definitely not refuse."

"Well, it is estimated that it will not be long before Brother Liao will ask you and me for help due to the shortage of money, and then ......" Liang Zijun looked at him with a folding fan with a smile.

"Haha...... In this way, I am just scattering all my family wealth, and I will definitely help Brother Liao show his ambitions!" Li Shoucai slapped the table and got up proudly to respond.

"If you have this, you don't dare to let that kid know, otherwise you will be able to astigmatize your ten thousand family property" Liang Zijun took out a letter from his arms and handed it to him, and said with a headache, "This kid is too greedy, he dares to talk about such a big piece of meat, and he is not afraid of dying!"

Li Shoucai took it with both hands, and after reading it, he said with a smile, "It's really like what Brother Liao did...... Hehe, I don't think it hurts, in terms of wit, you and I are not as good as him...... If he wants to, he can swallow it all."

Liang Zijun squinted his eyes and discussed with him how to help his friend, and the two talked directly about the third watch in the middle of the night before they went to sleep.

Liao Fanzhi was dealing with the older generation of powerful ministers led by Zuo Xiang, with King Jing behind his back, although he could save his life without worry, but it was still an errand with his head pinned into his belt.

In addition, this time it involves official salt, which is the top priority of the imperial court's taxation, if it is not lawful, it will be useless to shake the grasshopper tree, and once it has made achievements, it can collect most of the tax for the imperial court, and it can also be said to bring the power back to the hands of the emperor.

Liao Fanzhi's major events are not in a hurry, at present, in addition to entering and leaving the palace every day, Liang Zijun has to be busy choosing shops, although the eldest brother has helped to see a few shop sites, but it is up to Liang Zijun to decide which one to finalize.

As soon as he entered Beijing, Liang Zijun had a lot of acquaintances to meet, and as soon as he settled down in his eldest brother Liang Zi's house, he immediately brought gifts to visit Liang Baijin.

Liang Baijin and his wife were naturally happy to see it, and during the banquet, they heard that Zijun didn't want to be an official Wang Guilian and wanted to persuade him again, Liang Baijin patted his wife's shoulder and said, "That's it, Zijun has his own plans, and King Jing also has a plan to recruit him into Beijing, I think it's better to wait and see first."

Liang Zijun did not shy away from telling all his worries, and finally said with a smug expression, "If he wants to use me, he has to be willing to do it by his nephew."

Liang Zishu said with a smile, "You skin monkey, you still can't change your temperament, don't worry about yourself in vain and annoy King Jing again"

"The little brother has his own measure" Liang Zijun laughed, this cousin is two years older than Liang Zixian, and it is because Zijun is not less because of the naughty hall brother.

"I think Zijun's trick to get out is still feasible, King Jing has made a lot of enemies in the court, if the younger brother is clearly recruited by him, I am afraid that he will catch fire, and Lord Liu belongs to the Hanlin Academy, and he is one of the few people in the Qingzhuang faction who does not tend to be inflammatory, and he is upright, and he can work for him and pretend to be a staff member, so he can also avoid being hated" Liang Ziwen stroked his beard lightly and said with a smile.

"It's still the second brother who thinks clearly" Liang Zijun patted his ass happily, and climbed along the pole.

"What do you want to do if you don't want to enter the office?" Liang Zishu said.

"Hey, hey, hey...... If it is not a last resort, the younger brother is willing to be an idle layman at home, why bother to step into the place of right and wrong, I am cheating" Liang Zijun raised his glass and signaled, drank the wine in the cup in one gulp, and secretly smashed "Good wine, if you don't come here, you can't drink freely, it's not worth the trip"

"Hahaha...... Although good wine is good, it needs to be ordered immediately, don't be greedy for a cup and make mistakes," Liang Baijin said with a smile.

"What do you do with this disappointing words? Zijun is rare to enter Beijing, so if you like to drink, you will drink more, and you will often come and go in the future, and you will inevitably drink wine" Wang Guilian hurriedly instructed the maid to bring two more jars of good wine.

"It's still my aunt's favorite little nephew, and my nephew respects my aunt for a cup" Liang Zijun got up and faced Wang Guilian, flattering like a coquettish.

"You~ are all daddy, and you are still so obedient" Wang Guilian poked his forehead lovingly, and drank a glass of wine.
