Chapter 344: Why is it so miserable?
The discussion outside was very positive, and Meiling opened his mouth again.
"My lord, as the patriarch of the Mei clan, I will also sue Meishan today for not distinguishing between black and white, mutilating the younger generations in the family, and accusing his wife Liu of abusing his daughter-in-law and granddaughter, and not treating them as human beings. He also told Mei Kang that he was addicted to gambling and sold women for glory. ”
Meiling's voice was very loud, he had been doing farm work all year round, his body was well maintained, and he was full of energy when he spoke, and the people outside were shocked again.
The plaintiff has become the defendant? The family is really messy.
"The village chief can testify that Mei Kang has not succeeded in his studies, and often gambles with the village chief's ruffians, and is often collected by people from other villages, and Meishan once bought a few acres of land for him."
Mei Ling continued: "Mei Kang sold his daughter Mei Qingqian to Liu Xi, the widower who killed his original partner in the village, for money, that Liu Xi is almost twenty years older than Qingqian, and he originally called him a brother, how could he be embarrassed?" ”
"The girl is also a stubborn temper, she would rather die than obey, fled to the mountains, and fell into the valley, and almost lost her life, but fortunately, the old man cared for her, let Li Xun, who was hunting, see her, saved her, and the two became husband and wife."
Mei Ling sneered, "But Mei Kang actually teamed up with Liu Xi to ask Li Xun for compensation for the dowry, and he originally received one hundred taels of silver from the Liu family." ”
The people who listened were in an uproar, one hundred taels, this is too exaggerated, right?
"And Mei Kang and Liu beat their daughter-in-law Su, causing Su's foot to be seriously injured, and he was sent to his uncle's house to recuperate......"
Mei Ling was very organized, one by one, he was a little tired after a while, and said to Mei Zhongyue: "Erlang, you continue." ”
Mei Zhongyue continued, the tone and wording were almost the same as Mei Ling's, although it was a different personal speech, but the audience could connect seamlessly.
Mei Qingqian admires Meiling even more, grandpa can govern the family and train successors.
During this period, Mei Kang and Liu tried to interrupt them several times, but they were all stopped by Zhou County.
Zhou Xianling is now very disgusted with Mei Kang's family, but he is not an emotional person, he wants to hear why Mei Qingqian is unfilial.
Listening to this piece by one, Zhou County Ling couldn't help but sigh, how could he be such a father?
If it were him, he wouldn't be able to guarantee that he would be able to endure it, let alone protect his mother and sister.
He looked at Mei Qingqian with some sympathy, and many onlookers were also looking at Mei Qingqian.
So I saw Mei Qing's eyes reddened, and tears swirled in her eyes, but she couldn't bear it.
Her aggrieved but strong appearance makes people look even more sad, but it is more effective than crying.
Mei Qingqian's back is straight, she is not completely acting, she also has emotions in it, not all of them are related to her, but thinking that it was the poor girl in her previous body who experienced it, she panicked in her heart.
Mei Ling wiped the corners of her eyes and wiped away her tears, Mei Zhongyue's voice was also choked, and the mother-in-law and women who were watching the excitement outside couldn't help but shed tears, they were all women, and they could better understand Mei Qingqian's experience.
After hearing this, Zhou Xianling looked at Meishan and asked, "What explanation do you have?" ”
"He's exaggerating, my wife does have a bad temper, but who doesn't beat and scold her daughter-in-law? Isn't it right for elders to teach younger generations? There is also Mei Kang's gambling money, it was a few years ago, and he knew that mistakes could be improved, he had already changed, but he was held back. ”
"Also, Mei Qingqian was originally well-behaved and never dared to disrespect her elders, but now she beats her grandmother and scolds her father, and the village chief has seen her drink raw blood, and Mei Kang is worried that she is possessed by monsters, which is not unreasonable."
Mei Qingqian couldn't help but sneer, "I'm well-behaved and obedient, I work day and night, what do I get?" Sold by you? When I fell down the mountain, I wondered why I was so miserable, because I was too cowardly, too unrelievable! ”
"In your eyes, you work for you day and night, and then you sell it to the old widower who killed the original partner and can't resist, you are a normal person, otherwise you are a demon and a monster?"
Mei Qingqian's eyes became redder and redder, "In your eyes, if you hurt my mother and want to make her face, I can't resist or protect my mother, otherwise it's unfilial piety, and it's a monster possession?" ”
Her tears flowed silently this time, "In your eyes, as long as you go against your will, you are a monster, so what do you see?" Who is the Eater Youkai! ”
After finishing speaking, the surroundings fell silent, and after a while, I don't know who sighed, and some people sniffed.
They are all filial and filial, but they can't force people to death, right?
Liu opened his mouth to scold Mei Qingqian, but was shocked by Zhou County's order.
"Okay, today's trial of Mei Qingqian's disobedience to filial piety, the official already knows the ins and outs, as for Mei Kang and Chen Xi's pretending to be ghosts, they will be tried again tomorrow."
Zhou Xianling glanced at Mei Qingqian, "This official believes that you have your difficulties, and the head of the Mei clan and the head of Maple Village are willing to testify for you, so they will sentence you not guilty and you can go home immediately." ”
He sighed, "Fortunately, the Mei clan patriarch is fair, so I will honor your mother in the future." ”
"Thank you, sir." Mei Qingqian saluted respectfully, from the bottom of her heart.
Lord Zhou's words not only confirmed her innocence, but also implied that it was enough for her to honor her mother in the future, and as for her biological father, let him go.
It's just that the words can't be too clear, so as not to be made a fuss about it in the future.
Mei Qingqian stood up straight, Li Xun helped her beside her, and looked speechless, but took care of her very much.
Lord Zhou motioned for them to leave, and Mei Qingqian and they walked towards the outside of the county office.
The onlookers made a way, and suddenly, an old woman went to pull Mei Qing's shallow arm and cried: "Girl, take good care of your body, live a good life in the future, and give birth to a big fat man as soon as possible." ”
Obviously such a sensational picture, but it was ruined by the "big fat man" who gave birth, Mei Qingqian forcibly stifled her laughter, her face was flushed, and her mother-in-law thought she was shy, and patted her hands: "Go back quickly, live a good life." ”
"Thank you, mother-in-law." Mei Qingqian thanked.
When the group left the county office, Li Xun opened his mouth to invite everyone to dinner, especially the village chief, who ran with them and worked hard.
Zhang Ping'an wanted to be polite, but was pulled by Meiling, "Don't refuse, accompany me for two drinks." ”
Mei Qingqian still chose the restaurant recommended by He Shuhuan, ordered the signature dish, and asked for zero wine.
After dinner, Mei Qingqian wanted to go to the shop where they were doing business together, and when they went back later, Mei Ling, Mei Zhongyue and Zhang Ping'an left first.
When Mei Qingqian went to He Shuhuan's shop, He Shuhuan cried when he saw her.
"What's wrong? Running into business trouble? Mei Qingqian's heart tightened, wasn't she cheated of money? How do you cry like this?
