Chapter 098: The Silver Is Lost
Another village ruffian was just called to help, Ben regretted that his arm was broken in the future, but now that his arm is healed again, he immediately showed joy, and while moving his shoulder, he said, "Hey, okay, my arm is really good." ”
Liu Xi looked at him angrily, but he was too happy to see it.
The tall official became even more impatient, "Since no one is injured, let's go back quickly, there are still big things to do, it's a waste of time just to come and see their east and west families." ”
After speaking, he also glared at Liu Xiniang, and said fiercely: "Next time, if you report a false case, you will be arrested and hit the 20th board, and you will continue if you suspect that your life is long." ”
Liu Xiniang's troubles in the village are just relying on the credit of her husband who died, or the popularity she has accumulated on weekdays pretends to be pitiful, and she is still a little afraid of the officials in the Yamen.
"No, I don't dare." She said hurriedly.
"Let's go." The tall official said to his companion.
Mei Qingqian stepped forward, "Wait." ”
She saw that the high-ranking official was about to get angry, so she hurriedly said: "Just now, the two adults also said that trespassing on other people's houses, if you damage or lose property, you will be fined and compensated, but we will also be punished and compensated for hurting people, and we will deal with the injured people first." Now that no one has been injured, isn't it time to deal with compensation for trespassing and destroying other people's houses? ”
"Mei Qingqian, don't go too far, you originally owed my family a hundred taels of silver, you pay back the silver first!" Liu Xiniang shouted.
"Debts should also be black and white, my family is just me and Li Xun, when did the two of us write you an IOU?" Mei Qingqian said.
"You ......"
"Shut up!" The tall official yelled and interrupted Liu Xiniang's words.
He glared at the half-paralyzed mother-in-law fiercely, and said in his heart that this old woman reported the case indiscriminately, and it was too delayed, and he didn't blame him for being impatient, but there were still big cases waiting to be handled in the yamen, and there was a shortage of manpower.
"We still have important business, we don't have time to listen to you quarrel here, don't talk nonsense, your grievances and grievances are looking for the village chief and the elders to administer justice, now the owner of the house has lost something, hurry up!"
Li Xun swept around the yard, "The tables and chairs are broken, and the door of the house over there is also broken." ”
"It's nothing to be poor like this......" Liu Xiniang muttered in a low voice, but was glared at by the official and immediately became honest.
Mei Qingqian walked quickly towards the house, and soon she walked out with a gloomy face and threw an empty box on the ground.
"Where is my silver?" She glared at Liu Xi and asked.
"What do you mean, taking the opportunity to blackmail money?" Liu Xi looked at the official, "My lord, she is planting a false accusation, and I didn't even have time to enter the house." ”
Liu Xiniang also hurriedly said: "My lord, this woman was divorced by her husband's family and remarried, where is there any silver, she just wants to make money." ”
Mei Qingqian was furious at the moment, as a Taurus, moving her money is moving her life!
"It's not your turn to be an old shrew, I'm poor, and the silver is all my dowry, if you don't pay it back today, I'll fight with you!"
The creaking of her teeth was really enough to fight hard, and even Aunt Zhang next to her was frightened.
"How much silver was lost?" The short official asked.
"A total of sixteen taels, of which six taels were borrowed by Aunt Zhang, and they will be returned in a few days."
Aunt Zhang nodded hurriedly, "I lent it to her." ”
