Yan Ran was born beautiful, and at this moment she spoke softly, the child immediately stopped crying, sat up and asked Yan Ran: "Really?" Do you have something to eat there? Yanran smiled: "Of course, you tell me, what inn do you live in?" ”

"We don't have a guest house, we live in a relative's house, my mother said, what a second grandmother. You also want me to kowtow to my second grandmother! The second grandmother, the smile on Yanran's lips remained unchanged, Rong Qi's eyes were already a little cold when she looked at the woman, and when the woman saw that she said the bottom of the sea, she immediately stepped forward and slapped her son again: "Nonsense, we live in Yuelai Inn." ”

"Joy Inn?" Yan Ran read the name of the inn and called Mrs. Lu: "Send these two to the Yuelai Inn, charter a small courtyard, and you will wait by your side." Mrs. Lu should be, and stepped forward to take the child's hand: "Come with me." ”

If you go with Mrs. Lu, will there be something delicious? The child glanced at Mrs. Lu, and then looked back at Yanran, seeing that Yanran was still smiling so gently, on the other hand, looking at her mother, with a fierce look, the child decided to go to the inn with Mrs. Lu.

Seeing that her son was gone, the woman was in a hurry, not only did she not chase her, but turned around and was about to hit Rong Qi with her head: "You have been stabbed a thousand times, and you have deceived my son away, and then my son will have ......."

"This is not right, in this court, everyone knows that it was our husband and wife who asked the next person to take your son to the Yuelai Inn, and if there is anything, it is naturally our husband and wife. Our husband and wife do things clearly, and we don't do any sneaky actions, where can we make a mistake? Yanran's face sank, and she said sharply to the woman.

"Whether it's or not, you have to recognize it. You stay at Yuelai Inn for a few days first, so why rush at this time? Rong Qi's words made the woman open her mouth and said: "There are still a few days before the New Year, and the old man must be buried before the New Year." Could it be that the old man only has this one son, and his own son can't go to the pot and beat the flag? ”

"If you didn't marry near Yangzhou City that day, it would only take two or three days to find out. I left the words here, and three days later, it will still be here, whether this child is my uncle's blood or not, and it will be clear at that time. ”

Yanran's words made the woman no longer able to argue, but she still said nonsense: "When you go to my mother-in-law's house, you will definitely give people money and let them favor you." ”

"Don't think people's hearts are so dirty. If you think so, that's fine. The wife of the transporter is now in mourning. If you think that we will use the money to buy people, then I will not invite anyone else, but ask the lady of the forwarder to arrange for someone to go, do you think? ”

The Lady of the Transporter? When the woman heard this, her legs couldn't help shaking, she was a maid from the Rong family, and naturally she knew what kind of official the transfer envoy was. She was still thinking about it, and Rong Qi had already said to the crowd of onlookers: "Please also ask your public to nominate a person to go to this woman's mother-in-law's village with the person sent by the lady of the transfer envoy to inquire." ”

When Rong Qi said this, of course, there were people who wanted to take the opportunity to get in touch with the transit envoy, and after only a while, someone with good deeds stepped forward. Rong Qi asked for his name and knew that he was the boss of the Zhang family, so he saluted him.

When Yan Ran had just spoken, she had already asked someone to talk to Mrs. Lin about it. Mrs. Lin listened to it, so she asked the maid to come out and say that this matter was a good thing for a reunion, and it was also appropriate to give a gift, so that she could go to the yamen to find so-and-so, and go to the woman's mother-in-law's house with the people who came out from the public here.

At this moment, the woman knew that there was no reason to shirk it, frowning and thinking about it, the uncle Zhang had already said: "Quickly agree, although I have dealings with the Rong family, but it is not so close, as for the transfer envoy's wife, yesterday Master Rong was to save the transfer envoy to the unfortunate death." Thinking about it, he was also very happy, and Master Rong had a son besides that young lady. ”

The woman stammered, wondering how to get away with it. Seeing her like this, Uncle Zhang's brows furrowed very tightly: "This is a good thing, the family always has to be harmonious." Rong Sanye and his wife are not as good as others, and they are going to court when they hear a word of money, now that they are like this, go over there and ask clearly, it is good for your son to recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors. If ......" Uncle Zhang frowned and said: "If there is a case, this is not an official, it is easy to say!" ”

The woman's hands trembled there, and Yan Ran ignored her when she saw this, and only called Qiulan to come: "Send this one to the inn, you have been serving Mother Lu for the past two days, and what they want to eat and drink is up to them!" ”

Qiulan should be, walked up to the woman and made a gesture of please, the woman's forehead was sweating, and then her heart was horizontal, there must be a case, so she blessed Uncle Zhang: "Then it's tiring!" Uncle Zhang watched the woman leave, and saluted Rong Qi: "Third Master Rong, if you want to say, I'm afraid this matter is a little unreliable!" "The poor family married a rich maid with a belly, this kind of thing is common, Master Rong has no son, if the woman really tells the truth, I am afraid that the family will send her son over, and if she can get benefits, she will get benefits, but this woman refuses to tell the truth, but she is afraid that this child is not more likely to be Master Rong.

"No matter whether it is reliable or not, this woman was indeed my uncle's room that day, and my uncle left home less than two months after taking her in, and then because of a trivial matter, she was married off by Aunt Zhu. These are the facts. "Not to mention the descendants of the Rong family, even the Qiu family still remembers this woman, and even knows where she married that day.

After Rong Qi finished speaking, he said to himself: "If there is a case, it is also a good thing!" "If it is really Master Rong's son, it is just a re-division of property, this lawsuit, even if it hits the Jinluan Palace, at most it will be Rong Qi, Rong Yuzhi and these three children to equally share the remaining properties of Master Rong. Maybe even the properties under Rong Yuzhi's name will not be moved, and Rong Qi and the kid will share it equally.

Uncle Zhang smiled and didn't say anything more, so he bowed to Rong Qi and went to the person who was told by Mrs. Lin to go to the woman's mother-in-law's house and ask for a clear understanding. Seeing that there was already a temporary result, the onlookers dispersed. Rong Qi walked inside, and continued to entertain those who came to mourn.

As soon as he walked in, he saw Fourth Master Rong standing there, and Rong Qi couldn't help asking, "Is there something wrong with the fourth brother?" ”

Rong Siye's hand clenched into a fist in the air and let go: "Third brother, I have thought about it, I will not go this time." ”

"Why? Don't you know that this is your uncle's last wish? Rong Qi listened to Rong Siye's words, and his brows were furrowed as if he was outside. Rong Siye lowered his eyes: "Of course I know that it is my uncle's last wish to let me go to the examination, but when I first took the exam, I always felt that my knowledge was still more tender, and secondly, the family was not peaceful. ”

Rong Siye's words made Rong Qi stunned, and then Rong Qi patted Rong Siye's shoulder: "It's good that you have this heart." How can I say that I still have a big brother here! ”

"Big brother is more than loyal, but not resourceful!" As soon as Fourth Master Rong's words fell, Uncle Rong's cough sounded, and then Uncle Rong came over with a tiger face: "No matter how loyal and resourceful I am, I am also your eldest brother." Nine times out of ten, this matter was done by the Zhou family. You are always younger brothers, and the second brother is not in Yangzhou, so let your sister-in-law go and talk to the second brother and sister. The family is like this, and outsiders don't know how to laugh when they hear it. ”

"Don't let the sister-in-law go, the second sister-in-law is not a person who is willing to listen to persuasion, and then the sister-in-law will be humiliated in vain." Fourth Master Rong muttered such a sentence, and Uncle Rong smiled and said: "Always do your best, I can't do it as you can, so I can only do such things." ”

Rong Qi looked at the brother in front of him, his eyes were hot for some reason, and then he said: "When my uncle was alive, I just hoped that the four of us would be fine. If there is a case, I can't let my uncle's thoughts be disappointed. ”

Rong Siye's lips hooked, Rong Qi knew that he always said it in vain, but sometimes, some things are meaningless to do, but they have to do it.

"Sister-in-law, everyone knows the temper of the second sister-in-law, why do you want to go?" Qiu Shi had already sighed softly: "Yes, but if I don't go, what will the city of Yangzhou say about me?" Third aunt, I know that your eldest brother and I are not capable of you, and those who can persuade peace will persuade peace, if not, they will do their best! ”

"If only I hadn't driven my second sister-in-law away yesterday!" The woman brought her child to make trouble, so naturally she couldn't hide it from others. Rong Yuzhi sighed beside him.

"Even if you don't get rid of her, don't you think she won't come up with these ideas? Besides, there is the Zhou family behind it, I see, the original idea was always to let the woman sue the official, and then the prefect arbitrarily sentenced her. When the objections were made again, the Zhou family had already taken the opportunity to make a profit from it, and by the time the lawsuit was settled, it would have been abject poverty at that time! ”

Fighting for property lawsuits, for several years, until both sides are poor, and only the officials benefit, Yanran heard Zeng Zhixian say it several times. At this moment, Yan Ran said it, and Qiu couldn't help sighing: "It's ridiculous that the second aunt still thinks that this is for her good." ”

"It's just us who are destitute, the Zhou family makes profits from it, she is the daughter of the Zhou family, so naturally she will share some benefits. In the heart of the second sister-in-law, I am afraid that there is nothing else except silver! Yan Ran's words made Rong Yuzhi bow his head, he always thought that things in the world were extremely simple, but the various things he encountered this year made Rong Yuzhi know that people's hearts are complicated, how can it be so simple?

"You said, did your third grandmother coax those two people to the inn?" Zhou leaned on the couch, and when he heard the maid come to report it, his eyebrows furrowed, and then he threw the silver chopsticks used to pluck the charcoal in the hand stove: "The useless things have been arranged, and they have been coaxed away." ”

The maid knew that this was not scolding herself, but she was still startled, bowed her head and said: "If you go and ask, don't you ask what kind of child was born in August, but was born after ten months of marriage." Grandma, we'll ...... then."

The author has something to say: In ancient times, lawsuits were often the result of feeding the officials and making their own families poor.
