Chapter 189: Rushing to the Doctor
Mei An persuaded and frightened, and stopped Mei Ping in the end.
The other three village elders looked at it and didn't think so.
Even if Mei Ping really begged Mei Shunniang, would it be useful? If Gui Wu really took care of Mei Shunniang, a cousin and cousin-in-law, he would not have handed over the complaint. It has reached the point of facing Bo Gongtang, and it is obvious that the Gui family can't bear the Mei family anymore, and if they step forward to tear it up, it will only make the Gui family even more angry.
"You can't wait, send someone to the yamen to do something!" Duri was holding back his breath.
Now that the matter has come out, it is naturally better to solve it as soon as possible, and it can't be dragged out like this, who knows if there will be extraneous branches.
Mei An looked at the empty ancestral hall door, her heart was slightly cold, Mei Tongsheng has not seen anyone yet.
This kind of major event of a clansman entering the official position is dredged up by a person with a meritorious name in the past, and it is easy to talk in the yamen.
You must know that this dynasty treats scholars well, and if you are in the show, you can see the official without kneeling.
But for such a major event as the official sending into the village, a cadre of people and horses passed by the village school, how could Mei Tongsheng not notice it at all, but he didn't show his face, where could he expect it?
At this moment, I heard footsteps at the door of the ancestral hall, and a person came quickly, it was none other than Mei Tongsheng.
Mei An's expression softened slightly, and just as he wanted to speak, he heard Du Li say rightly: "Where is Qingbai?" Let him go to Gui's house and ask, what do you want to do after such a big battle? ”
Mei An and Mei Ping both looked at Mei Tongsheng, in the hearts of the two brothers, it was Mei Xiucai who was more suitable to speak on behalf of the Mei family.
No, Mei Tongsheng's head shook like a rattle: "That's not good!" In-laws, you can't pit our second child! Qingbai took a leave of absence from the Gui family back then, and the Gui family held a grudge in their hearts, so they couldn't avoid it, and even sent it to the door! ”
Only then did everyone remember that the Mei and Gui families still had this heavy grievance.
Old lady Gui looked at the few people surnamed Mei in the hall, and her face was ugly.
Even if "Donggui" and "Xigui" have not been in contact with each other for a long time, but because Aunt Gui was divorced that year, it also affected the marriage on the side of "Donggui", among which the two granddaughters of the old lady were not very satisfied.
Mrs. Yang and Mrs. Li are brothers-in-law, they are of the same age, and they have a good personal relationship.
Both of them couldn't help but look at Du Lizheng, the Du family wanted to marry a daughter to the Mei family, which was the reason why Aunt Gui was suspended. And Du Erniang, who married into the Mei family from the Du family, is none other than Gui San's unmarried lady.
Even if the Gui family dragged down several old relatives because of the Ding service, they didn't live with the Du family; But the actions of the Du family are more hateful than falling into a well.
If the Gui family really remembers Aunt Gui's dismissal back then, then they will not only remember the Mei family, but also the Du family.
Gui Wu is obviously more decent than the legend, so can Du Li Zheng keep Li Zhengzhi in place?
Du Lizheng's face was also ugly, but he was annoyed that he was careless.
I only regarded it as a trivial matter more than ten years ago, Mei Qingshu and Gui's men and women got married, and they had nothing to do with it, but they forgot that the Gui family would not forget this paragraph.
"Qingbai can't do it, just Mei Sheng! Qingbai lost the Gui family, but Mei Sheng didn't lose it! Dury thought for a moment.
Mei Sheng is an orphan of "Jiuding", and the Gui family always has to take care of it.
Mei Tongsheng still shook his head resolutely: "Brother Sheng'er can't do it, if he is dragged down by Mei Qingshu and his family, hated by the county lord, and ruined his future, wouldn't he be wronged?" ”
Mei Sheng has a talent for reading, and he is only fourteen years old this year, even if he is lucky in the township test next year, there is still Spring Fu ahead, even if everything goes smoothly, there is still this big family in Sanhe.
"The county order of the broken family, the government Yin who destroyed the door", the official family is so easy to offend.
Mei An pointed at Mei Tongsheng and said, "Even if their uncle and nephew make turtles with shrunken heads and don't show up, aren't they the Mei family?" If there are people in the family who are left to be convicted, it will not affect the future of their uncles and nephews? ”
Mei Tongsheng raised his eyelids, looked at Old Lady Gui, and said, "Isn't there a precedent for the Gui family?!" If there are 'Donggui' and 'Xigui', why can't there be 'Beimei' and 'Nanmei'? We are cousins of the same great-grandfather, Qingshu still has clothes in their generation, and when Brother Sheng'er's generation is just out of the service clan, how can it affect him? ”
This "Five Suits Theory" is clear and clear, and it was obviously thought out before.
Mei An's face turned pale and she couldn't speak.
The Mei family has encountered a hurdle, and before outsiders have bullied the door, their own people are about to stab them.
Mei Ping was stopped when he wanted to find Mei Shunniang just now, and all his hopes were on Mei Tongsheng's father and son, but Yan Jia Mei Xiucai did not show up, and Mei Tongsheng also had to stand by and watch, the old man gritted his teeth and said: "Brother Congshan, don't let you worry about it in vain, isn't your land sold?" I'll transfer you ten acres of Zhongtian! ”
Nowadays, one acre of Zhongtian is ten taels of silver, and ten acres of land is one hundred taels small.
Mei Tongsheng was naturally moved when he heard this, but he looked at Mei Ping and pondered, and said for a while: "Doesn't your family have a total of twenty or thirty acres of land, the third child?" Only ten acres are transferred, is it too much? ”
Mei Ping said with red eyes: "A total of twenty-five acres, five of which are fields, and the family of six people, old and young, can't starve to death!" ”
Mei Tongsheng touched his beard, knowing that Mei Ping's family couldn't squeeze anything, and just wanted to nod reluctantly, he heard Mei An say: "If you take the land, you can ensure that the two Qingshu can come out with all beards and tails?" ”
Mei Tongsheng frowned and said: "The Gui family is not a false accusation, since it is a true accusation, where is it so easy?" ”
He just wanted to take over the land, give up this old face and grind Shun Niang twice, after all, it was his niece, as for whether he could keep Mei Qingshu out, it was all up to luck.
How could Mei An not see Mei Tongsheng's plan, but he couldn't watch his brother being "robbed while the fire was fired".
"Do you want to go from the good brother to Shun Niang's head, if you are willing to land, it is better to give Shun Niang directly!" Mei An said bluntly to his brother: "If Shun Niang is willing to accept this land, this land will not belong to others, and the property of Shun Niang's mother's family will belong to Qingshu, although Xiaoba is the heir, but there is no land in his name, and most of this land will be returned to Xiaoba!" ”
Mei Ping is already able to sue and make a fuss, so he will "rush to the doctor" and put all his hopes on Mei Tongsheng. At this time, listening to the dialogue between my brother and Mei Tongsheng, I also knew that Mei Tongsheng was unreliable, and finally hoped to hope for Mei Shunniang, but instead of blindly relying on relatives to plead, but to give compensation.
Mei Ping nodded, took a long breath, and said, "Okay, I'll look for Shun Niang, ask her to be a middle-aged person, and ask Gui Wu what he means!" ”

Sanhe County Ya, two halls side hall.
Zhang Liang was also asking Gui Wu about the Gui family's plans and how they wanted to fight this lawsuit. Although it is mentioned in the complaint that Gui Chongyang is "frightened", in the end there is no human life involved, and there is no thief, and the other party is just an "attempted theft".
This "attempted theft" can be thousands of miles away if the sentence is severe, and if it is less, it will only be released directly after dozens of boards.
As for why Zhang Liang asked Gui Wu, instead of asking Gui Chongyang directly, it was because Gui Chongyang grew up too pure, and he looked like a bullied and sick child, only who was protected by others, where did he know the necessity and necessity of "killing chickens and monkeys".
If you want to completely deter the villagers, the effect of exile is the best, but after all, it is a thousand miles in prison, and if there is a way on the road where Mei Qingshu dies, it will not be a deterrent, but a mortal enmity with the Mei family; Besides, if a person dies greatly, if he really dies, the Gui family is justified and unreasonable.
It's not enough to just hit the board, "the thunder is loud, the rain is falling" The Mei family can not remember it for a long time, and the villagers will be less afraid because of the peaceful results.
"What about local labor?" Gui Wu asked.
Tensor frowned and said, "Wouldn't it be too light?" If it is a stream, the direct border guard will be charged, and no one will dare to fight Xiao Chongyang's idea in the future! ”
When Gui Wu heard this, his heart tightened.
Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, the sideline has been unstable. The Mongols, who were driven back to Saiwai by Emperor Taizu, refused to give up, and often had things to do to detain the border, wanting to regain the country.
The border guards have always lacked manpower to do the fortifications, and the prisoners are crowded with border guards, and few of them can come back alive. Even if he is sentenced to three or five years, he will either die of exhaustion before the end of his life, or he will live until the time comes, but the border army will not let go, who can still find the border guards?
Tensor is only weak crown age, and he doesn't care about mentioning a human life. Or in the eyes of the nobles, the lives of the people are like ants.
It's just that this kind of "deterrence" is not what the Gui family needs.
Gui Wu showed a little embarrassment: "The son is pure and good, and he has always been kind to others, but I am afraid that I don't want to do this." Moreover, although the Mei and Gui families have disagreements, they have also married many times. Now the person who takes care of Chongyang's life is the villain's cousin Mei, and the Mei's cousin niece who was raised in the Gui family has promised to marry the villain's eldest nephew! There is also Mei Xu, the nephew of the suspect Mei Qingshu, who has been succeeded to the name of the villain's aunt and cousin as the heir! ”
Zhang Liang understood that the Gui family and the Mei family were inseparable from each other.
The reason why Gui Wu reported to the official was not really to get rid of the Mei family, but to deter the Mei family.
It's really a "temple demon with a big wind", but it's a small village, and this interpersonal relationship is actually making flowers. 21010
