Chapter 494: Two sons-in-law

Although the lawsuit between You Baosu and Dong Chao has come to an end, in fact, the lawsuit is over, but the entanglement in other aspects has just begun.

As for whether there will be other disasters between the two families in the future, no one knows now.

In fact, not long after the case ended, no one was interested in talking about it, at most it meant that the scholar made up a mess at the temple fair, and deceived the audience into spending a few small money.

Of course, the characters in the story are all remodeled, and the plot is no longer based on the detection process of solving the case, but the love and hate of various heroes and heroines, which is also mixed with the love and hate between the maid and the master, the love and hate between the young lady and the coachman, and even the dead but rich man left a posthumous child, who was picked up by the old coachman, and after many years, he grew up and became a coachman, and then with a rich lady, as well as the maid, deduce all kinds of love and hatred.

In particular, the description of various details is unbearable, but the person who enters the ear listens to it with relish, and the storyteller will even make a few movements by comparison, which is unbearable, but the person who enters the eye is full of interest.

All in all, this case has been rumored to be a mess, and it is completely impossible to see its true face, of course, this is also good for You Baosu and Wendenke in the case, at least others will not associate it with them.

Soon after the case was reported to Chang'an, Chang'an replied, Mao Xiaowu, the murderer, was of course sentenced to death, and Wang Jusi, who was in charge of hearing the case, was also unlucky and was directly dismissed.

However, the Yanzhou Assassin was transferred out of Yanzhou City and was assigned to a remote area to be a county commander, which was definitely derogatory, but the reason was not that he was beaten into a trick when solving the case, and he was careless of human life, but he dug out the mistakes he had made before, and used this as an excuse to repair him.

Li Rizhi was quite satisfied with this result, he still handled official business every day, and he still made some achievements in managing Qianfeng County; there was a bumper harvest in Qianfeng County that year, Li Rizhi did not levy additional taxes, and still less did the common people serve in forced labor, so the common people of Qianfeng County had a very comfortable autumn.

Autumn and winter are coming, the weather is getting colder, whether it is in the city or in the village, there are all kinds of idlers, chatting and doing nothing every day, such people are men and women, basically every winter when the New Year is about to appear, it is not a notable anomaly.

But even if the people are bored, no one will sit in a circle near the county office to chat and fart.

Ordinary people are still very in awe of the government, and when they are fine, they can not get close to the government, so they try not to get close, so the vicinity of the county yamen is relatively calm.

There is a letter stall on a street next to the county yamen, this letter stall is mainly used to write letters to people, and there are people who can write pleadings on their behalf, of course, if the customer is in need, the owner of the letter stall will also give him a hexagram, what marriage and child, wealth and health, etc., as long as the guest can mention it, the owner of the letter stall can all count it for him.

As for whether the calculation is accurate, it depends on how the owner of the letter stall explains, but the owner of the letter stall has always been able to explain it in any way.

But the main business of the letter stall is not to write letters on behalf of people, nor is it fortune telling, writing letters to make a few money, and if it is fortune telling, you need to walk the streets and alleys, so that there are many people in contact, and the fortune-telling business is easy to do, after all, fortune-telling is a thing, many times it is not accurate, even if the owner of the letter stall can justify himself, but the fortune-telling guests, if they come to find a trouble, it will still have an impact, and the calculation is not accurate, if this kind of thing is spread out, then the business will become more and more difficult to do, There won't be more people running to him for fortune telling.

Therefore, the most important business of this letter stall, which is very close to the county yamen, is to write letters for people, and this business is the most profitable, and the income will be relatively stable.

Before Qianfeng County, there were still a lot of lawsuits, although most of the time it was a dispute between neighbors, and it was a trivial matter, but when there were many such trivial matters, the business of the letter stall could naturally be maintained.

Of course, in major lawsuits, most of the time the plaintiff will go to someone he is familiar with, or someone in the village who can write, to write the pleading, and will not find a letter stall to write, unless it is a special case.

But there are a few special circumstances that can be encountered throughout the year, so the business of the letter stall can only be maintained, and if you want to make a lot of money, then don't even think about it.

However, since Li Rizhi became the county magistrate, the handling of cases is obviously more efficient, unless it is a major case involving human life, it is very fast, and the tolerance of the people who come to deal with the case has also increased.

This kind of efficiency is related to the fact that the officials in the yamen are all newly recruited, and everyone is still very motivated to work.

However, in this way, the business of the letter stall will become more and more difficult to maintain, and the owner of the stall will naturally be very unhappy, which involves the problem of income, and it would be strange if the owner of the letter stall can still be happy.

The owner of the letter stall near the county government is an old pedant, how good his knowledge is, needless to say, if there is real material, then he will not do this business!

However, the posture of this old pedant is extremely high, and it can be seen from his name, his name is Huang Tiandi, which can be regarded as quite loud.

In the evening of this day, it was already dark, Huang Tiandi closed the stall, and he was quite depressed, he just calculated a hexagram for people today, and earned more than ten cents, which was barely enough for him to eat, after all, the prices in Qianfeng County were not very high, but if you want to eat something good and drink some wine, it will be difficult.

Huang Tiandi cleaned up his stall and returned home, although today's income is not very high, but his family's life is not bad, because he has a good son-in-law, and this son-in-law often helps him.

The son-in-law's name is Chang Yutang, he is also a scholar, he has a field and a house in his family, and his life is quite nourishing, he specializes in fighting lawsuits for people, and he is called a lawyer in this era, of course, the profession of a lawyer is not treated by the government, and officials everywhere hate this kind of person.

But hate is hate, the profession of lawyer is impossible to disappear, especially when people are in a lawsuit, they often find a lawyer for consultation, and even ask a lawyer to help them fight a lawsuit.

Especially in the family property lawsuit, once this kind of lawsuit starts, then it means that the elders in the village cannot solve it, if it is the people in the city, it will be even more troublesome, especially when the brothers divide the family property, it is really the brothers can become enemies, no one is willing to retreat, and in the end they can only go to court, and at this time they often need to find a lawyer to reason for them.

Chang Yutang is particularly good at fighting this kind of lawsuit.

Chang Yutang happened to come to Huang Tiandi's house that night, and when he saw Huang Tiandi coming back dejected, he said, "Father-in-law, what's wrong today?" Isn't business bad? Or did you say that you didn't calculate the fortune accurately, and the guests found you, and didn't do anything with you, right? ”

Huang Tiandi shook his head and said: "That's not true, it's just that business is getting more and more difficult to do now, I'm so old, and I can't walk the streets and alleys, I can only set up a stall in a fixed place, but business is getting more and more difficult to do, you tell me how good it would be if there was a confused official in our county, but now this official is not confused at all, this is not fatal!" ”

Chang Yutang said with a smile: "Father-in-law, look at what you said, you are selling coffins, there are not enough people who are afraid of death, this is not good!" ”

As he spoke, Chang Yutang sighed, and then said: "Actually, I haven't had much business recently, so I have a headache, a headache!" ”
