Chapter 17: Zhang Tieniu
Listening to the approval of the county master's words, the sixth uncle was overjoyed, and the reason why he dared to come to the lobby was precisely because of this.
Li Qingyou was very frightened, he came to the yamen to seek help, but he didn't fill in the chips for the other party, so he hurriedly buckled his head upwards and told him that the sixth uncle was the father of the Li brothers.
"The Li family is like a wolf and a tiger, and the Li family is a tiger's den in Longtan, and the orphan girl of the people's daughter really doesn't dare to be suspected." Li Qingyou's words are beautiful, without leaving any emotion, "It's ridiculous to say that it is the friendship of the same clan, but it is just the crime of the people's daughter, if it is not for the family property left by her father, how can the Li family remember the people's daughter?" ”
The sixth uncle's face was blue and red, even if this was the case, but it was said so bluntly, and it was still in front of the county master, and he couldn't hang it on an old face.
"Nonsense......" The sixth uncle wanted to argue, but was stopped by the county magistrate raising his hand.
groaned, looked at Li Qingyou and nodded, this girl has a little more things, but she has a clear brain, and what she said is also the truth.
"It's not easy for you to set up a single family for an orphan girl, that is, you don't want to go to his house, there are many people in the Li family, I don't know if you have any acquaintances, if that family is willing to allow you a place, it's okay." The county magistrate is also very sympathetic to Li Qingyou, even if he doesn't like this troubled woman.
And it's not a matter for a woman to live alone, and there are many rights and wrongs in front of the widow's door, not to mention that she is an unmarried girl?
Inevitably, there will be trouble in the future, and it would be better to arrange a safe home for her.
"The folk girls don't have acquaintances, and they don't want to send people under the fence, and they hope that the adults will be fulfilled." Li Qingyou buckled his head again.
The county magistrate's brows were furrowed tightly, and he was about to say more, but the sixth uncle on the side snorted coldly, "It's better to send people under the fence than to corrupt the door, if you are a lone woman and do something that insults the lintel of the Li family, don't you make my Li family embarrassed?" ”
Now he doesn't expect Li Qingyou to go back with him, but don't want to monopolize the family property in her hand, even if it can't belong to him, it has to be returned to the Li clan.
The words of the sixth uncle are very ugly.
Li Qingyou is not the master who can suffer, and he fought back at the moment, "The Li family's door is not my turn to corrupt, a few days ago, I heard that the widow Qi in Shanlitun was pregnant, and the sixth aunt went to make a big fuss, and the widow of the victim lost her child, but everyone knows about it." ”
The Li family and his son are in the same lineage, and the sixth uncle is in his early fifties this year, but he is not a safe person at all, and he doesn't know how to hook up with the widow Qi in Shanlitun, and he also has a secret knot.
The sixth aunt is also a pungent person, or it is not a family that does not enter the door, Li Dabald's daughter-in-law is with her mother-in-law.
In the first two months, the sixth aunt led her daughter-in-law and nephew-in-law directly to the widow's house and beat the family up, which made a lot of noise, and then the sixth uncle spent a lot of money to settle it.
At that time, Li Laohan was very angry when he heard about it, and said that his cousin was not serious when he was old.
The sixth uncle was exposed, his face was blue and red, the roots of his hateful teeth were itching, and he was about to fight back, but the county master made a shock.
"Don't talk nonsense in court." The county magistrate glanced at Li Qingyou angrily, and saw that the two people in the hall did not dare to speak, so he continued: "It is not appropriate for you to live alone as a woman, if no one takes care of you, I am afraid that there will inevitably be an accident in the future......"
While speaking, a person stood up in the hall and knelt down in front of Li Qingyou, "My lord, the lowly and the sister of the Li family are close neighbors, in the past, Uncle Li and his aunt had a very good relationship with the lowly father, and the lowly family can take care of one or two." ”
Li Qingyou was stunned for a moment, turned his head when he heard the familiar voice, and looked at the sturdy young man kneeling beside him in astonishment, isn't this Zhang Tieniu, he went out on an errand a few years ago, but he didn't expect to come back today.
It's time to come back.
Acquaintances are very close to each other, but because of the wrong occasion, Li Qingyou can only endure it.
The county magistrate looked at Zhang Tieniu, who was not squinting at the ground with his head, and his expression eased a little.
Zhang Tieniu's father, Zhang Da, was originally a fast catcher in the yamen, and more than a year ago, the county cooperated with the soldiers sent by the imperial court to go up the mountain to suppress bandits.
The mountain bandits were strong, Zhang Da was seriously injured and broke his leg, and he could no longer be an errand in the yamen.
Zhang Da was disabled in the line of duty, and the compensation given by the court was also a drop in the bucket, and he remembered that it was not easy for the Zhang family, so he let his fifteen-year-old son replace his father.
Looking at the two people in the hall who are of the same age, if they can become their couple, it is also a good thing, and they will be allowed now.
"My lord......" The sixth uncle wanted to say something more, the county magistrate had already retreated to the second hall, and a servant came to blast him out of the yamen.
Compared with the embarrassment of the sixth uncle, Li Qingyou was surprised and delighted, which means that she doesn't have to be afraid of the Li family from now on, after all, no matter how big the family law is, can she still beat the national law?
"Brother Iron Bull." Li Qingyou shouted Zhang Tieniu several times in a row, but he didn't answer, thinking that he didn't hear it, he ran a few steps and amplified his voice and came behind him, "What's wrong with you?" ”
Looking at Zhang Tieniu's dusty body, with exhaustion on his face, he thought he was tired from running errands.
"Bad errands?" Otherwise, why did it take so long to come back, and I haven't been at home for years.
Zhang Tieniu's eyes flickered and looked away, and he replied.
Li Qingyou only thought he was tired, and asked him to hurry home to rest, in the past, he had to rest for three or five days when he came back from an errand, and this time is estimated to be no exception.
"No, it's okay, there's still something going on in the yamen, I'll come back later." Zhang Tieniu was hesitant, his eyes looked around, but he didn't look at her.
Li Qingyou didn't know what was going on with him, and he was thinking about his brother again, and nodded, "Then don't be too tired, your uncle and aunt are still thinking about you at home, so I'll go back first." ”
After speaking, she said hello to two officials who were familiar with each other, this was still borrowed from Zhang Tieniu's light, and she was familiar with several people who had a good relationship with him.
It's just that when she said goodbye to them, the person who usually had to say two words when she saw her would show disdain and snort and leave.
Li Qingyou, "......"
What does this mean?
Zhang Tieniu looked at Li Qingyou's back, opened his mouth several times to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything, and stomped into the next class room.
The two officials inside were familiar with him, and they all held grievances for him when they saw him drooping his head and looking dejected.
"Brother, why does the eldest husband have no wife, what do such a woman want her to do?"
"But it's not, just with your appearance, brother, this body and bones, you are worthy of finding a landlord's daughter, why do you want that girl to do?"
That Li Qingyou used to look fine, but recently there has been a lot of uproar about the succession of things, and both of them are not worth it for this little brother, especially when he is in the hall, he shouldn't have said that.
Zhang Tieniu kept his head and didn't speak, grabbed the teapot on the table and poured a belly of herbal tea into his mouth, only to slightly extinguish the anger in his stomach......
