Chapter XXXVI: Lawsuits

Hui Niang originally accepted her fate.

The woman was criticized for showing her head, and now she was approached by her husband's family, all she wanted was not to be swayed by her marriage, and she was not ready to fight for the property left to her by her husband, and the mother and son could return to their hometown to join relatives with some life-saving money.

But after listening to Shen Xi's words, Hui Niang rekindled hope.

Before Zhou, he always praised the old Taoist priest in front of her, and Shen Xi was given by him when he entered the school, and casually teaching Shen Xi a few words can make Shen Xi outstanding among his classmates, and writing a script can make Tingzhou Mansion a sensation, and the prophet took out a painting and sold it so that the family could settle down in the county.

Such a master pointed out that he wanted to report to the Yamen, so what was there to hesitate about?

"Really? What if the old gentleman doesn't show up during the lawsuit? Hui Niang looked at Shen Xi eagerly, and now she urgently needed a backbone.

Zhou helped Shen Xi speak at this time: "Sister rest assured, if the old gentleman is really willing to come forward to help, my sister's lawsuit will be fine, and when the time comes, not only will the family's production capacity be guaranteed, but my sister will be able to fulfill her wish if she wants to keep the festival for the princess." Otherwise, my sister took her daughter all the way back to her hometown, and there were no relatives at home, how could she live without remarrying? ”

Hui Niang thought about it and finally nodded in response.

When the matter is settled, you have to go to the yamen to fight a lawsuit.

In this era, a lawsuit is not a trivial matter, first of all, you have to find someone to write the pleading, the old gentleman in Shen Xi's mouth will not show up for the time being, you have to find a master who understands the format of the pleading, knows what to write first and then what to write, and can explain things clearly and win the favor of the county master, and now Sun Huiniang is stumped.

"Sister, it's not difficult to write a letter, and those people who set up stalls on the street to write letters should be able to write, right?" Zhou wanted to help, but she could only come up with random ideas on this issue.

Her affordable mother is literate herself, Shen Xi has seen her read and drink medicine before, a woman can come out to take care of the pharmacy, and she can't eat without the ability. In the end, the horizon is much broader than that of the Zhou family, Hui Niang felt that something was wrong, and asked hesitantly: "Is this ...... Will it work? ”

"Ask someone to write it first, and then find someone to guide you!"

Shen Xi smiled slightly, and interjected: "Aunt, if you don't fight, you won't be able to keep the shop, and if you lose the lawsuit, you will lose the shop at most, isn't it obvious what to do?" ”

Zhou scolded: "Adults talk, what are you talking about?" Knowing that your aunt is in a bad mood, she jumped out to make trouble, go out, get out. ”

Shen Xi stuck out his tongue and ran away, and when he arrived at the door, he heard Hui Niang say: "Xiaolang is right, if you don't fight, you will lose the industry that your deceased husband has earned for many years, and there is always a glimmer of hope in a lawsuit." ”

This time, Shen Xi didn't stay any longer, and went to the dilapidated house where he and Wang Lingzhi hid the treasure.

Since he proposed that the old Taoist priest would come out to help, he would naturally write the paper.

Although Shen Xi has no experience in writing pleadings, he knows the format of writing, plus he is familiar with the rules and regulations of the Ming Dynasty, and he is very clear about the key points of the case.

A piece of paper was not difficult for Shen Xi, and after he wrote it and read it and felt that there was no problem, his mood calmed down a little, but he still inevitably felt worried.

In this **** era, a lawsuit is not won if anyone is justified, not to mention that Hui Niang occupies all the reasons in this case, after all, the law is very vague about the definition of ancestral property, it all depends on the cognition of the county lord, if you encounter corrupt officials and corrupt officials, no matter how reasonable you are, you will lose the case.

In any case, Shen Xi still wanted to send the paper to Hui Niang, but he couldn't send it openly, but took advantage of the night to stuff it into the crack in the door of the backyard of the pharmacy, which would be more mysterious.

The next morning, Hui Niang had come to the courtyard to talk to Zhou, and it turned out that she had seen the paper-like paper stuffed into the crack of the door.

"This thing is really unusual, who knew that my sister was in trouble, and she specially sent the paper? Han Wa'er, did you do it? ”

Shen Xi was pulling rice grains into his mouth, and after hearing Zhou's words, he hurriedly shook his head.

Zhou Shi looked at Hui Niang, "Sister, can this paper be used?" ”

Hui Niang nodded and said: "I read it, the paper is written by a master, it is well-organized, reasonable, and written in a certain format, so there should be no problem in getting it to the government." ”

Zhou smiled with relief: "That's good, since you can use it, don't care who sent it...... Or the old gentleman saw that your sister was in trouble yesterday, and you don't know if you want to send it when you need it. ”

"When the government accepts the case, let's fight with the Lu family...... Han Wa'er, what do you see, read early after eating, don't be late for school, don't do a good job in the exam and end your tail. ”

Shen Xi nodded in response.

But today is a day related to the fate of Hui Niang's mother and daughter, he really can't let go of it, when he arrived at the school, Shen Xi has been thinking about the lawsuit, and he handed in his homework early after school and went straight to the yamen.

By the time Shen Xi arrived at the county office, there were already many people gathered at the door.

In the Ming generation, according to the rules, there will be two fixed times a month to hear the case, but there are few lawsuits in Ninghua County, even if the villagers have conflicts and disputes, they will basically be mediated and resolved by the local chief and the chief of the village.

The case was personally interrogated by the county magistrate Han Xie.

The people like to join in the fun, the outside of the yamen is densely packed with people, Shen Xi is a child, and he got into it through the cracks, and it happened to be the time to open the hall.

Ninghua is a small county, and the area of the yamen is not large, so the situation inside the county yamen is clear at a glance. I saw Hui Niang kneeling in the lobby with a plaque of "Mirror Hanging", stretching out her hands and asking the official to hand over the paper. The old man and the young of the Lu family also knelt, and the old man kept complaining that Hui Niang did not obey the woman's way, and such a trivial matter as returning the ancestral property actually alarmed the government.

"What's the noise, be quiet!"

Han Xie was a little impatient, and with a startled shot, the noisy lobby and outside quickly quieted down.

Han Xie took the paper from the servant and looked at it, and quietly handed the paper to his master. The master hurriedly browsed, and handed it over to Master Xia, who was sitting behind a low table in the corner of the lobby.

"Tell me, what's going on? Listening to your accent, it doesn't look like a Tingzhou people. Han Xie looked at Hui Niang, and then looked at the Lu family who was shouting on the rectangular kneeling stone beside Hui Niang, "Please call the shots".

The old man of the Lu family said: "Back to the old man's words, the grass man Lu Youcheng, a native of Jianchang Mansion in Jiangxi, is the cousin of this woman's dead husband. In the early years, my cousin was doing business abroad and bought property for the Lu family, but because he was away from home all the year round, we didn't know that he had died, and I thought it was caused by this woman deliberately concealing the news of my cousin's death. ”

"When I heard the news, I immediately came to ask her for the ancestral property, but I didn't want to be bitten by her, this woman is really a wolf's ambition."

Han Xie frowned and said, "It's a family in the end, why can't we discuss it behind closed doors?" The husband died, and the property was taken back by the husband's family, Lu Sun, why did you sue the government? ”

The words of the county lord caused onlookers at the gate to talk a lot.

Although Hui Niang's mother and daughter, orphans and widows are very pitiful, it is not the case in the eyes of the people.

Maybe it's the prejudice of people against women in this era, women have to go out of the door, and they all stand in the position of the Lu family to accuse Hui Niang of not abiding by women's morals.

Hui Niang originally had the confidence to fight, but when she arrived in the court, she was questioned by Han County's order, and was judged by the people behind, she couldn't help sobbing, and she didn't even know how to answer Han Xie's questions about her.
