Not to mention how anxious the Li father and son were, Sun Wenqian listened to Cao Hao's words, but his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly echoed: "The virtuous nephew is right, even if your brother-in-law is confused, he knows how to be honest, and he is not a hairy boy, how can he be so Meng Lang?" ”

"Oh, did my brother-in-law tell my cousin what he was secret?" When Cao Hao heard this, he seemed a little curious and asked.

Sun Wenqian sighed and said, "What else can there be hidden, it's just that I offended the villain and was calculated." I was going to urge your brother-in-law to report to the official, but there was no evidence in my hand, and I opened it up, but it became more and more ridiculous. ”

When Cao Hao heard this, he couldn't help frowning, and said, "It's not good to eat this dumb loss in vain." ”

Sun Wenqian gritted his teeth and said: "And keep it in my heart, the Sun family is not bullied in vain. ”

Li Nai's father and son were already a little unable to sit still, Cao Hao seemed to think of something, and said to Li Nai: "Big cousin, it's rare for a cousin to come over, let someone take him to meet a few of his cousins?" ”

Li Cheng glanced at his father, saw his father nodding, and followed the Cao family's housekeeper down. There was no need to stay in the living room, he was both relieved and a little unconvinced. It's just that he is young, but he is really curious about how Cao Hao will face the Sun family's request next.

Although the reputation of "divorced wife" and "divorce" is better, it is not the norm after all, and it is necessary to cause a few words of gossip, of course the Sun family is unwilling.

didn't wait for Sun Wenqian to speak again, Cao Hao's face had already changed, without the warmth of Fang Cai, with a bit of solemnity. He took out two pieces of paper from his sleeve and handed them to Sun Wenqian.

Seeing this, Sun Wenqian's heart sank, and after looking through it carefully, he saw that it was two squares, and raised his head a little puzzled.

Even Li Nai, who was watching from the sidelines, couldn't help but kick in his heart.

Cao Hao sighed and said to the two: "This involves the Sun and Cao families, and the eldest cousin is not an outsider, so I have to say a word." ”

Sun Wenqian and Li Nai glanced at each other, and naturally listened to him obediently, so they listened to him continue: "This is the prescription opened by my nephew at the beginning of the month, and my brother-in-law's kick just kicked the child's heart. vomited half a basin of blood that night, and half of his life was lost, and later he changed a lot of good medicines from the palace and the palace, and changed a few imperial doctors, and finally survived. ”

Sun Wenqian and Li Nai, hearing about this for the "first time", couldn't help but change their faces and were surprised.

Sun Wenqian also seemed to understand why the Cao family was so angry, and why the nephew and daughter-in-law, who had always been virtuous, were so resolute.

Cao Hao let out a long sigh, picked up a scroll from the cases next to him, and handed it to Sun Wenqian. Sun Wenqian took it and looked at it, and his face became more and more ugly.

This is a petition written in the name of Cao Xiang and Cao Fu, writing several charges against Sun Jue for taking prostitutes as concubines, spoiling concubines and killing wives, and innocently beating his son-in-law almost to death, and asking the Yamen of the Bujun Capital to order Sun Jue to repay Cao Ying's dowry and live separately.

After reading it, Sun Wenqian's hands couldn't help trembling, and he hurriedly said: "Virtuous nephew, in the end, the ugliness of the family cannot be publicized, and it is not good to be an official!" ”

Even if Li Nai was steady, he couldn't help it, stood up, walked to Sun Wenqian, looked at his hand, and said: "The two cousins are indignant, and the circumstances are excusable, but since ancient times, they have not been persuaded to completely separate, and between husband and wife, what grievances can be dissolved, why is it so?" ”

Cao Hao also seemed to be embarrassed, rubbed his eyebrows, and said with a wry smile: "I stopped me bluntly, and because of this, it made the two of them annoy me." The eldest cousin misunderstood, this piece of paper was written by the fourth and fifth children, but the meaning was the meaning of the eldest sister. The doctor said that although the nephew survived this catastrophe, he had the root of the disease, and he was afraid that he would have to recuperate for three or five years before he could recover. The eldest sister didn't want her nephew to have any mistakes, and she didn't want their father and son to turn against each other for this, so she advocated separating the property and living separately. ”

"Li'er, he ......" Sun Wenqian couldn't care about anything else, and hurriedly asked: "Yesterday, I saw that he was just a little clearer, why is he so sick?" ”

Cao Hao sighed: "This is no better than an external injury, even an adult, it hurts the lungs, and it is also fatal, let alone a half-grown child." When I came back yesterday, I was a little uncomfortable, so Xiao Wu specially sent someone over and took my name card and invited the imperial doctor to come over. Fortunately, it was just a cough and nothing else. Seeing that autumn is coming, it is the time to warm up, so let's take it slowly. ”

Sun Li is the eldest grandson of the Sun family, and the future sect master, even Sun Wenqian, the uncle, has to take care of a few points.

Hearing that the child suffered a big crime for no reason, Sun Wenqian scolded Sun Jue half to death in his heart. said that Cao Ying was jealous, and he didn't believe it; said that Sun Li was disobedient, and even opened his eyes to speak in the vernacular.

The eldest grandson of the Sun family, and the Cao family has to protect him, Sun Wenqian is not a confused person, he just feels panicked on his face, and he can't say anything if he pleads on behalf of Sun Jue.

Li Nai's head is even more entangled.

In fact, as long as he told the truth to the Sun family, Xia Chan's matter was just a calculation by his son Tongcheng's family, and he handed over the written note written by Sun Jue in his hand, and then came forward as evidence, he could clear half of Sun Jue's charges.

At least the article "abducting and abducting the Qing people" is not right, and the note says that Xia Chan bought it as a "maidservant", and the article "accepting prostitutes as concubines" is also exempt.

The rest is that Sun Jue "doesn't know people" and is fooled, which is not a big crime.

However, at the moment, the brother-in-law is not only discredited, but also almost killed his son, even if Li Nai is kind to his relatives, he has to weigh the consequences.

I am afraid that when the time comes, even if Li Cheng is beaten to death, it will not be able to calm the anger of the Sun and Cao families.

After thinking about it, Li Nai sighed in his heart, and could only ignore his conscience and choose to wait and see what happened.

The three people in the room were silent, so silent that they were afraid of people, and after a while, Sun Wenqian asked decadently: "Nephew Fu Ruoxian, according to your intentions, what should be done about this matter?" ”

"What else can I do, my nephew means, it's better not to be an official. There's really no way, I have to ask the fourth cousin to be the master, don't live, don't live, it's not good, it really breaks off the friendship between the two families. Cao Hao said with a little helplessness.

Sun Wenqian trembled, wanting to say something, but he had no confidence, so he could only sigh a few times...... * Inner house, Lan Courtyard, upper room.

In the end, An's learned to be obedient, but he didn't dare to pick his daughter-in-law again, but he just begged Li to reconcile one or two for his son and daughter-in-law.

Li had already listened to his son's words yesterday, and knew that his niece had made up his mind this time, so he naturally refused to do much. Not to mention, there is still the second wife Zhao Jia in Dongfu, so she doesn't need to talk much at all.

But seeing that An's is over half a hundred years old, it is not easy to travel thousands of miles for her son and daughter-in-law, so she can only accompany her to say good things.

An's only said with a dry mouth, and he couldn't accept half a sentence from Li's, and couldn't help but be a little annoyed, and his speech was a little pantothenic, the left sentence "My cousin-in-law is a lady uncle, and her status is noble, but I don't miss our poor relatives anymore", and the right sentence is "If the old lady is alive and sees that his nephew is still nesting in the countryside, how can he bear it", or "The daughter-in-law was originally virtuous, but in the end, her mother's family is developed, and her waist is hard".

Where did the Li family quarrel with her, but Chu Yu couldn't stand her mother-in-law's suffering, and the contradictions between Cao Ying and her husband were blamed on Cao Ying, reversing black and white, which made people annoying.

She glanced at An Shi and said to Li Shi: "Madam, seeing that it is almost noon, do you want to stay for An Yiren to eat?" ”

Hearing this, An's face turned red.

Sun Wencheng's weaving is the title of the five pins of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and it is not wrong to call An's "pleasant". It's just that this solemnly raised the level of the edict, and just happened to accept An's words.

If you are someone else, in this way, you are suspected of "bullying others", but it is very natural to be Chu Yu.

Chu Yu is the lord of the emperor's grandson, and Shuo Gege, the Sun family is Baoyi, even if he is the in-law of the Cao family, he can't lose his status as a royal minion.

Chu Yu didn't say that he called her "Edict", but directly called her "An's". After all, it is not a husband family, there is a patriarchal hat pressed on it, and it is necessary to guard the identity of the elder and the young.

For this reason, Li didn't feel that there was anything wrong with what Chu Yu said, and said with a smile: "Between relatives, it is far away, and it is rare to come here, so naturally you have to keep the meal and ask the kitchen to prepare." ”

She originally wanted to give a few more instructions and ask her daughter-in-law to prepare a few more good dishes, but she was afraid that she would fall into An's eyes and become a showman, so she didn't say much.

Chu Yu responded, then looked at An's and asked: "Is there any taboo in Yiren, don't go outside, just say it, save the minions from preparing and pleasant taste." ”

He asked Shuo Gege, but An Shi was not able to sit down, blushed, got up and replied: "Don't dare to bother Gege, just feel free." ”

Chu Yu bowed his head slightly and said, "I know." Yiren sat slowly with my wife, and I went down first. ”

An Shi held his breath and stood to send her off, only to see her go out, only to breathe a sigh of relief.

Li sat on the kang and looked at it, but he was a little embarrassed, and said, "Don't be restrained, it's a relative in the end." ”

An sat down in a daze, weighed it and said: "Sister-in-law, it is a blessing for a noble person to fall, but this mother-in-law is not easy to be, right?" Looking at this Gege, speaking kindly, the bearing of this body is shocking. It's not like being someone's daughter-in-law, it's like being the master. ”

Since Chu Yu entered the door, Li has never picked Chu Yu's daughter-in-law. Listening to An's words at the moment, Li couldn't help but be annoyed.

The Li family will not take An's sour words to heart before, after all, the situation of these families in the early years was similar, and now the Cao family is indeed better off than the Li and Sun families.

But when it comes to his own family affairs, Li doesn't like to hear it.

She glanced at An Shi and said, "This is full of capital, who doesn't praise my daughter-in-law for being virtuous?" After so many years of getting along, why didn't I find anything wrong with my daughter-in-law? She was originally noble, the emperor's grandson Gege, the blood of the heavenly family, and married into the Cao family as the eldest daughter-in-law, a serious master, do you still want to be a slave? ”

An Shi was so blocked that he couldn't speak, and hurriedly smiled: "I don't mean that, I just think that my nephew and daughter-in-law are too majestic, and it is not easy for people to get close." ”

Li Shi listened, only speechless.

The Cao family came and went to these relatives, and the female relatives did not dislike Chu Yu's goodness, but the An family wanted to find fault with it over and over again.

In front of others, maybe it will be good to fall. After all, since ancient times, mothers-in-law have been picking bones in eggs when they look at their daughters-in-law. Li is a generous surname, and Chu Yu is indeed worthy of a good wife and mother, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are very compatible.

The more Li listened, the more annoyed he became, and he already decided that An was "mean", and the little thought that he had hoped for Cao Ying and his wife to reconcile had also disappeared. There is such a mother-in-law, and it seems that her niece has suffered a lot over the years. Fortunately, in the past few years in the capital, it is finally far away.

Seeing that Li was silent, An Shi only talked about her itch, and even had nothing to say, and said: "Don't say anything else, it's the love of husband and wife, and you should also think about the heirs." The old man who was farming outside collected a few acres of extra grain, and he was still worried about taking a concubine, not to mention everyone's father-in-law......"

The Li family was a little unlistenable, the reason why Sun Jue beat his wife and whipped him was to take a concubine. It seems that the Sun family doesn't feel that there is anything wrong with their family, no wonder Sun Jue is so lustful and doesn't miss the knot at all.

She "coughed", interrupted An's words, and said, "It's not easy to talk about the little couple when you're an old man." Whose daughters aren't expensive? Let them be. ”

An's only thought that Li was talking about Cao Hao and his wife, but Li made up his mind not to mix with Sun Jue's husband and wife.

Chu Yu stood outside the door, listening to An's words, her face was a little ugly, and she agreed more and more with her husband's intentions, and supported Cao Ying's "separation of property and residence".

How can the daughter of the Cao family be bullied in vain?

You must know that Tianhui will eventually marry someone and say ......* Here in Xifu, the Li family is still so gentle, and Cao Hao has no rudeness, but the people of the Sun family can only take advantage of the excitement and return in defeat.

Back at the Li family, Sun Wenqian had no choice but to scold Sun Jue again.

Sun Jue is a screw, how can he admit that he is wrong, the uncle and nephew almost staged a full martial arts. Sun Jue didn't want to reflect on his body, so he took the opportunity to humiliate the Cao family, and cursed his wife and children outside the words, so angry that Sun Wenqian was half dead.

Even Li Nai, who also felt that his brother-in-law was a little too much.

In this world, there are many husbands and wives who are against their goals, but it is rare to be so ruthless to their sons-in-law, otherwise how can there be a sentence "Tiger poison does not eat children".

Looking at Sun Jue, for a woman of unknown origin, she was almost crazy, and almost killed her eldest son with her own hands, which is already outrageous.

Although Cao Hao also mentioned "disposing of property and living separately", Sun Wenqian did not give up in the end, thinking that if he dragged it out, he might have to turn around.

Unexpectedly, before he went to Cao's Mansion for the second time, the summons from the Admiral Yamen of the Nine Gates arrived.

pressed down the case file before and did not try it, first, the facts of the case were unclear, and second, Sun Jue was an official. Now that the case is gradually becoming clear, Sun Jue has stopped his errand due to the impeachment of the imperial history, and it is time to try the case.

Sun Wenqian is just a prisoner, Li Nai is just an alternate prefect, and the two of them really have no weight.

Not to mention Long Keduo, the prefect of the Admiral of the Nine Gates, even a few book offices, they didn't take them seriously. After all, there are not many others in the capital, and there are many people with status. The royal relatives and relatives all grabbed a handful, not to mention the official gentry.

Sun Wenqian's meaning is that he also wants to be cheeky and ask Cao Hao to come forward. Cao Hao went to Xishan to pray for his father's blessing, but he was not in the city. As for the Cao Xiang brothers in Dongfu, Sun Wenqian didn't dare to think about it.

As an in-law, when he came to the capital, and before the Mid-Autumn Festival, Sun Wenqian was not allowed to go to the Pingjun Mansion to ask for peace.

is not a close relative, and Wang Fujin of Pingjun is not good at seeing male guests, so he only sent the palace steward to entertain and drink half a cup of tea.

The palace steward explained that Fu Jin was very angry about the matter of the Cao family's grandmother, saying that he wanted to make decisions for this poor sister, and if the Sun family did not make a proper arrangement, he was afraid that the palace would come forward to vent for Cao Ying.

I don't say it explicitly, but that's what it means.

Sun Wen Qianchu didn't understand it yet, but felt that Pingjun Wang Fujin was angry. Even if you are angry again, what can you do, even if you are a powerful person in the palace, you can't kill people at will.

Unexpectedly, when Sun Jue was summoned to the Yamen of the Nine Gates, the situation changed greatly.

Originally, it was just a summons, but it became a prisoner.

According to the laws of the Qing Dynasty, officials are not allowed to use punishment at will without an imperial decree. But when Sun Jue was imprisoned, he was beaten to death with thirty boards.

Until this time, Sun Wenqian spent five hundred taels of silver to buy a few accurate words from the bookstore. The holy decree has already been issued, and the emperor's decree is only two words: "quasi-check".

The silver that the Sun family brought into Beijing had already smashed 2,000 taels into the Yamen of the Admiral of the Nine Gates within a few days, but they did not block the arraignment.

However, after three or five years of kung fu, he was tried twice.

Sun Jue refused to agree, so he was beaten twice. He is greedy for lust and good wine, and his body is not strong, how can he withstand such a toss?

is not a backbone, he was scared of being beaten by the board, and he didn't care about his face, so he explained that he was framed.

This official is greedy for joy, it is not a big case, it has a relationship, just take out some silver for personal use, but Long Keduo has been entrusted by all parties, and he wants to teach Sun Jue a lesson, so he does things according to the rules.

Unexpectedly, this also bit out a "fraud case".

Cheng Mengxian is now in Prince Zhuang's mansion, and the new Huguang Shoudao who was bitten out by Sun Jue is the disciple of the Ninth Elder Brother.

Even Ronkodo also felt a headache.

Cheng Mengxian came over to listen to the training after getting the summons, and talked about eating and drinking, but he resolutely denied other things about "blackmailing a thin horse with Qingqi".

Sun Jue is not a rich man, even if he really wants to defraud, it will not be his turn. Besides, the Cheng family is really not short of money.

That Huguang Shoudao, after seeing His Majesty in Rehe a few days ago, has already gone to Huguang to take up his post, and this time he is replaced by the steward of Jiubeizi Mansion.

The steward said well, since he was burdened with the emperor's order, he should guard the place, and for the sake of a sinner's indiscriminate biting, he left his errand and came back to hear the trial.

These nine admirals' yamen, although they are prominent, are also troubled places. Long Keduo has been able to sit firmly for several years and has already learned to play Tai Chi.

This is a small case, why did he bother to make it big, offended Prince Zhuang's Mansion and Brother Jiu, and even went to the palace to block the emperor. As for whether the Sun family suffers losses, he really doesn't care about it. As long as the Cao family has no intention of making a move, the Sun family has not let him take care of the weight.

He sent a confidant to see Sun Wenqian and mentioned a few words.

Next, there is nothing to do with Sun Jue.

Huanxi Building, there are all human and physical evidence, and the confessions of the people in the house outside the front door and the neighbors are also there, and Sun Jue's charges of "abducting prostitutes privately" and "taking prostitutes as concubines" are confirmed.

Within half a month, Sun Wen seemed to be a few years older, and he had already sent a letter to Hangzhou.

The children behaved inappropriately, and Sun Wencheng had to go to the fold to ask for guilt. If you annoy the emperor, a sin of "not governing the family strictly" can also ruin the future.

It was not until the beginning of September, more than a month after Sun Jue was imprisoned, that the excerpt handed over to the imperial front by the Admiral Yamen of the Nine Gates was approved.

Sun Jue lost the dignity of the court, was disobedient, according to the law, he was dismissed, with a hundred rods, and sentenced to exile. The holy decree was allowed to be dismissed and exempted, and Sun Jue could be regarded as escaping death.

After being imprisoned for these days, after receiving a few board beatings, he was always sick, and only half of his life was left. At this time, if he received another hundred rods, even if En came out from above and only beat him with forty rods according to the rules, he could still take his life......
