Chapter 98: Drumming and Crying Out
When he arrived at the door of the restaurant, he thanked Steward Sun at the beginning of the month: "Steward Sun, thank you for your help today." ”
"Hey, it's just a trivial matter, and if you don't make it or not, it's all up to your craftsmanship, I'm just bringing you in. ”
The two said a few words, and Steward Sun left first.
At the beginning of the month, I happily went to see Wen Shang, but saw him with a straight face.
"What's wrong with you, fool?"
Wen Shang turned his face away unhappily.
At the beginning of the month, he wondered and asked again, "Unhappy?"
Wen Shang still ignored him.
Before entering the restaurant just now, this little fool was still good, why did he make a fuss now?
At the beginning of the month, she was used to Wen Shang smiling at her, and at this time, Wen Shang turned his head to the side with a straight face, which was a world of difference from his usual appearance.
She snorted, walked to the side where Wen Shang twisted his face, stood on tiptoe to hold Wen Shang's face, and forced Wen Shang to look at her, "Stinky fool, what are you unhappy about?"
"Hmph, lady, why did you care about that Luo cabinet just now!"
At the beginning of the month, I couldn't cry or laugh, "People are Luo shopkeepers, not Luo cabinets, and when do I care about people?"
"Obviously, there is! The lady just asked Luo Cabinet to change what kind of incense, and she also knew that he was infected with the wind and cold, which made him jealous, you have never said such a thing to Wen Shang usually!
At the beginning of this month, it was inexplicable that Wen Shang was suddenly unhappy, but after hearing Wen Shang's words at this time, the doubts in her heart were wiped away, and her heart suddenly understood.
Wen Shang is jealous?
She held Wen Shang's face and looked left and right, and looked at it for a long time before saying, "God, a fool can be jealous." ”
Wen Shang: "......"
"Hahaha, it's so funny that my stupid husband is jealous!"
Wen Shang originally had some small emotions, but as soon as he heard this sentence "my stupid husband", all the broken emotions suddenly disappeared without a trace, and were replaced by the sweetness of his heart.
It was the first time at the beginning of the month that he had said that he was her husband, and he was still saying it with a smile.
Wen Shang also followed the joy and took the opportunity to bend down and rest his head on the shoulders of the beginning of the month, "Wen Shang is not allowed to care about other people, and the lady is only allowed to care about Wen Shang alone!"
At the beginning of the month, I couldn't cry or laugh.
"Lady, you don't speak, you don't say good, you don't like Wen Shang, right?"
Wen Shang, who was scared of the dogs, succeeded in getting the moon to surrender.
"Good, good. ”
Wen Shang rested his head heavily on Yueyue's shoulder and asked, "What are you doing?"
"You can say anything. "What I said at the beginning of the month was a bit perfunctory.
Wen Shang was unhappy again, "The lady doesn't like Wen Shang! The lady doesn't like Wen Shang at all!"
"Okay, okay, I only care about you, I don't care about others. ”
Wen Shang, such a stupid big man of more than 1.8 meters, standing on the street and coquettish towards the moon, is really spicy.
Coaxed Wen Shang to finally stand up straight, and at the beginning of the month, he only felt that his shoulders suddenly relaxed.
Happily holding Yueyue's hand, Wen Shang asked, "Lady, will we go back now?"
"No, we're not going back. ”
"If you don't go back, what are we going to do now?"
The moon smiled.
-
At the entrance of the yamen, Wen Shang beat a big drum loudly.
At the beginning of the month, she covered her ears and thought to herself that this fool is really strong, can this hand easily lift her up?
As the drumbeat continued to spread, many people gradually gathered around, and everyone wanted to know what grievances they had to say about the sound of the drum.
Soon the county magistrate came to the court, slapped the shocked wood, and asked: "Who is beating the drum outside?
"Yes!"
Yue Yue and Wen Shang were quickly brought in, and onlookers also poured in.
Ordinary people can go in to see the case of beating drums and shouting grievances, but they can't enter the lobby, they can only stand outside and watch.
"My lord, my name is Yueyue, I am from Manxiang Village, and this is my husband, my name is Wen Shang, and I am from Wucun. ”
"My husband was a fool, and when my father-in-law died, he entrusted my husband to the care of my husband's uncles and aunts, and when my father-in-law entrusted my husband to my uncle and aunt, he also gave me two hundred taels of silver, which were used to take care of my husband for the rest of his life. ”
"But since I married my husband, I found out that my husband is living a life that is not as good as pigs and dogs!"
"Some time ago, my aunt kicked my husband and wife out of the house, and now I want to sue my uncle and aunt, asking them to return the remaining silver taels left by my father-in-law to our husband and wife!"
As soon as the words came out at the beginning of the month, the crowd of onlookers outside whispered.
After hearing this, the county magistrate patted the shocked wood, signaled everyone to be quiet, looked at the beginning of the month and asked, "Is this true?"
"If there is half a falsehood, let the adults deal with it!"
The county magistrate touched his beard and nodded, looking at Wen Shang: "Your name is Wen Shang?"
Wen Shang seemed to be frightened by this * atmosphere, and nodded timidly.
"You told the official, do you remember how much silver your uncle gave when he sent you to your uncle's house?"
Wen Shang nodded again, and said a little timidly: "The eldest brother gave my aunt a big wooden box, and the eldest brother said that two hundred taels of silver is enough for me to live a lifetime, not to ask me to be rich and rich, but to ask for a safe life, and let my uncle and aunt take good care of me." ”
The county magistrate touched his beard and slapped the shocked wood again, "Come on, go to Wucun and bring Wen Shang's uncle and aunt over!"
The servants rode back and forth, so Wen Li and Fan were brought back after a short time.
Fan originally planned to cook at home, while Wen Li and Wen Lei were working in the fields, but they didn't expect that someone from the yamen suddenly came and told them to follow.
This scared the couple enough, and they trembled all the way.
At this time, he followed the official into the outside from the outside, and he was even more trembling and didn't know what he had done.
When the two of them came in and saw Yue Yue and Wen Shang on the side, Fan's eyes immediately widened, and he forgot where he was, so he opened his mouth and said, "Why are you here, little slut?"
"Bold! Yamen is heavy, how can you allow a woman to speak foul language!" The county magistrate slapped the shocked wood hard, so frightened that Fan's legs were weak and immediately knelt down.
"Wen Li, Fan's family, is it true that at the beginning of the month, Wen Shang and Wen Shang sued Wen Shang's father for leaving two hundred taels of silver, and now you have kicked the couple out of the house, but you are unwilling to return the remaining silver to Wen Shang?"
As soon as the county magistrate's words came out, Wen Li and Fan's hearts slammed.
They didn't expect that they had been driving out the beginning of the month and Wen Shang for half a month, but the matter was raised, and the two of them came to the yamen at the beginning of the month!
The two of them didn't know whether they were scared or thinking of countermeasures, so they kept their heads down for a while and didn't say anything.
This scene made the onlookers talk about it again.
"There must be such a thing, otherwise why don't the couple speak?"
"Tsk, I received two hundred taels of silver from people, and I didn't give them a penny after driving them out, this heart is really hard!"
Fan Shi shouted in a trembling voice: "Wronged, my lord, there is no such thing! When we took Wen Shang in the first place, we saw that he was our nephew, and he was demented and pitiful, so we took him in!"
At the beginning of the month, he said: "My lord, Fan's lied, when Wen Shang was sent here, the whole village knew that whether the person who my father-in-law entrusted to send my husband gave them silver, and the adult asked him to go to the village to ask." ”
"Come on, go to Wucun to inquire with the villagers, if Fan speaks, he will be punished immediately!"
"My lord, I remember wrongly, there is a give, there is a give!" Fan Shi was so frightened that his heart trembled when he heard the "great punishment service", and he subconsciously admitted it.
The county magistrate patted the shocked wood, "Dare to tease the official, come here, and hit the five boards!"
"Yes!"
"No, don't hit me, it's been too long, I'm really mistaken!" Fan was shocked and anxious, and hurriedly excused himself.
Wen Li entered the yamen for the first time, and he never thought that Fan would be punished for just telling a lie, so he immediately explained for Fan, "My lord, my daughter-in-law is really not teasing adults......
"Shut up, and if you interject again, I'll fight with you!"
"Ouch-" Fan wailed.
The five boards ended quickly, and at the beginning of the month, he looked at Fan's and hooked his lips, and said: "Fan's, my lord is the Qingtian lord sent by the capital, to solve problems for the people, who doesn't praise and who doesn't praise in Pingcheng?"
The county magistrate who said this was very happy.
Of course, these words were deliberately said to the county master at the beginning of the month, and at this time, looking at the county master touching his beard and smiling, I thought that what the butcher said was really right.
This county lady really likes to listen to people's sycophants!
Although it is not too serious to hit five boards, the Fan family has always been extremely arrogant, who dares to touch a single hair of her?
