Chapter 264
As soon as the man finished speaking, he was dressed decently, but Lin Baoru didn't know which man answered, "Those nonsense outside, don't forget to go to your heart, it's all the words of the mother-in-law who chew the root of the tongue at home, and it can't be true." ”
With those who took the lead, those who were not close to Liu Fu found a reason to say goodbye.
They walked neatly, and they didn't look at the head of the Liu family and a few uncles at all. Anyway, they also know in their hearts that after today, the patriarch and uncle will be like that, maybe they don't have a face compared to them.
Xiaohua, who came back from trotting, held a few notebooks, handed out the money, and first leaned into the young lady's ear with a sad face and whispered: "Young lady, in the box you said, there are only a bunch of ghost drawings, and there is no account book." ”
Lin Baoru nodded calmly, nodded the booklet in her hand and said with a smile: "Oh, it's me who has a bad memory, you put the booklet back first." ”
As for what is missing, what kind of ghost drawing symbols, she won't recognize it. Let's let those Liu family moths be frightened.
At this time, the patriarch of the Liu family and a few uncles who were still holding on to their majesty couldn't stand up to the shelf, and several people looked at the books in Xiaohua's hands with worried faces, and said in their hearts that they couldn't let her pursue this matter anymore no matter what.
Otherwise, they will be safe in the future?
In fact, now, the Liu family who came to the door also saw that Lin Baoru and Liu Shulai were determined to break free from the control of the Liu family. What made them even more worried was that Mrs. Liu, who had almost responded to their requests before, did not have the slightest attitude of dissuasion.
In other words, because of the entry of Lin Baoru, the new daughter-in-law, the Liu Mansion no longer wanted to help the clan. And these so-called clan relatives, except for the weak means of finding benefits from Liu's business by relying on their surnames, they don't even have the slightest way to seek benefits for themselves.
At this moment, the little guy who was sent to the yamen by Liu Da also came back with an official with a big knife.
To be honest, there are few errand boys in the yamen who don't like to play two. And Liu Shulai is a person who is used to being a person in the casino, especially these seemingly inconspicuous, but in fact they are enough to deter many dirty-minded people, and there are few who don't sell his face.
In addition, Mrs. Liu's support for the Yamen's efforts to arrest murderers and suppress bandits has also paid off at this time. Don't talk about the county lord, just say that those yamen dukes don't dare to despise Liu's mansion.
Therefore, everything in the world has a cause and effect.
Mrs. Liu planted a tree in the front, and her son and daughter-in-law in the back were so good.
Those two officials are still Liu Shulai's old acquaintances, the same two that Liu Shulai asked them to pay attention to the thieves from outside the West City before. Now they heard what the little guy said, and they probably understood what happened to Liu's mansion, so as soon as they came over, the two of them patted the big knife first, looked at Mrs. Liu and Liu Shulai, and said, "I don't know who is making trouble in the house, and I bother Mrs. Liu Dashao to identify one or two." ”
This time, the ruffians who had just shouted outside the crowd. The hooligan was directly frightened into the crowd. The woman and the man who came to blackmail the money were also shaking like chaff at this time, and they didn't dare to speak out again for a long time.
As for the few cousins of the Liu family who were still barely surrounding the head of the Liu family, and when they saw Liu Shulai really calling the officials over, they didn't dare to take a breath, for fear that they would suffer a lawsuit as Lin Baoru said.
To tell the truth, in these years, who is willing to go into the yamen? Not to mention whether they will get into bad luck, just say that they are very weak-minded, lest the lord of the county government really take care of the housekeeping lawsuits of each family.
After all, who doesn't know, stealing chickens and touching dogs in the town, and making the east long and the west short, is a matter of needle-point wheat, as long as someone sues, the eldest master will be promoted to the court for interrogation.
The first to soften was the third uncle's family, and they sneered with pale faces: "Who dares to make trouble in front of our Liu family, my old man can't spare him first!" ”
"Third brother, you ......." The second uncle saw that his third brother, who was originally disgusted with Lin Baoru the most, suddenly changed his words, and couldn't help but look at him in surprise.
The third uncle didn't dare to elaborate on his worries, so he could only remind in a whisper: "Brother Shu'er's daughter-in-law is not easy to mess with, before getting married, she personally pressed a troublesome beggar to the yamen, and sent her own cousin to prison. ”
"When I inquired about her shortcomings the other day, I heard that her cousin still hasn't come out." The third uncle glanced at his second brother and whispered, "She is so ruthless, if she really makes trouble, can she show us mercy?" ”
The second uncle of the Liu family didn't know these things, but now that he suddenly heard it, his heart suddenly became worried.
"I heard that she also broke people's heads in public, and even used knives with thieves......"
The second uncle frowned, and when he looked at Lin Baoru standing calmly in front of the door, he was a little surprised. Even, he who had just righteously echoed the patriarch with his righteous words, hesitated at this time.
"When you say that, I think of one thing, she has done a lot of fierce things, but few people in Taoxi Village say that she is not ......" The third uncle's eyes swept over Lin Baoru from time to time, and muttered in a low voice, "How deep this mind should be!" ”
It's not deep, how can you coax Liu Shu to escort her with Mrs. Liu and her mother in a short period of time? even held her in Baba, and didn't criticize her at all for being in charge of the house!
The more people thought about it, the more worried they became.
Such a person, coupled with Liu Shulai's unstingy temperament, and Mrs. Liu, who is famous for protecting her shortcomings, how could they think that they could snatch food from this tiger's mouth? cruel
Thinking of this, when several people looked at the sneering expressions of the Liu Mansion, they no longer dared to take Qiao by virtue of their status as elders.
Didn't you see those officials still holding iron chains in their hands? I'm afraid that as long as Mrs. Liu and her mother point out, they will never have a chance to succumb.
Lin Baoru only used this trick to let the Liu family confirm that she was really moving.
After the second uncle made his mouth public, he figured out what was going on, and naturally followed the busy statement.
As for the head of the Liu family, it is difficult to support himself at this time, and he can't be tough. Besides, even if he wanted to support the situation strongly, he was powerless in the face of Lin Baoru's accusations and account books.
At this point, the Liu family, a group of parents and relatives who rely on the old and sell the old, and are an eyesore in the Liu Mansion all day long, are completely honest.
Liu Shulai arched his hand at the two officials idly, then raised his eyebrows and looked at the people at the bottom of the steps, and said slowly: "It's not a trouble, but I suspect that these people are maliciously blackmailing my family's money." ”
"Well, that mother-in-law said that her daughter was the girl saved by my mother, and that the poor girl who fell into the water was ruined by my mother, and she had to ask for an explanation."
"But how many people saw it yesterday, that girl was well-dressed, and came out with two maids left and right, even if it was not a rich family, at least it would not be short of money. But you see that the woman, at first glance she is dressed decently, but in fact it is just some rough satin cloth. Therefore, I suspect that she is not the lady's mother at all, she should be a female liar who was found out of nowhere, and wants to take advantage of the chaos to get money. ”
Besides, what mother-in-law of a decent family can be like a rough woman in the countryside, splashing and rolling, cursing and cursing? I don't care about whether it will affect the face of the family.
"Hey, what Liu Dashao said makes sense, the wife of the head of this family is not like the wife of the master family, and the brother of the subordinate is not like the brother of the subordinate. This spilling and making trouble looks like a family! ”
When everyone heard this, the more they thought about it, the more they felt that it made sense, and they immediately started talking about it as if they were blowing up a pot.
As for the people who wanted to see Liu Shulai's jokes at first, at this time, they laughed at the Liu family patriarchs who persuaded Liu Shulai to admit his mistake to Lin Baoru at that time.
Of course, those in the crowd who blindly smeared Liu Fukou because of their hatred of the rich were not able to avoid being squeezed a few words at this time.
Liu Shulai saw the mother-in-law and the two men, and was already flustered, so he kindly looked away and turned to look at the green-clothed maid whose dress had been soaked with an unknown liquid.
saw that the maid looked like she was not moving, but the thin quilt covered kept trembling.
He thought about it, and simply raised his hand and raised another piece of jerky over.
But the moment the dried meat landed on the face of the green-clothed maid, the maid suddenly rolled off the wooden door panel.
She trembled and looked horrified, staring at the Tibetan mastiff lion on the steps. That look, where he passed out, there was no damage at all.
Liu Shulai raised his eyebrows, "Yo, I didn't expect that my jerky can save lives and help the injured in addition to teasing small stones!" As he spoke, he sighed twice and said regretfully, "It's a pity that Lao Tzu doesn't have much inventory in his hands, otherwise he would have to smash more in the face of you and your eldest brother, so that you can eliminate illness and disasters and prolong your life......
The onlookers laughed again, and the green-clothed maid who only laughed was so embarrassed that she couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground on the spot.
However, will Liu Shulai let her go because she is ashamed?
Of course not, Liu Shulai has never been a good man and a woman, besides, this person slapped his own black heart lotus yesterday, and today he will come to the door without repentance to buckle himself and black heart lotus with a hat of doing nonsense when he is rich, he can bear it.
"Oops, it smells of urine, it's really unpleasant." As he spoke, Liu Shulai waved his hand and looked at the green-clothed maid with disgust who was dripping with liquid from a wooden door, "I said that you are a good girl, don't you have some kind of illness, and you can't control yourself in front of the public?" ”
After saying this, everyone realized that the green-clothed maid had peed her pants. She would get up with a rolling belt, and the dust on her skirt that had already been stained with mud was now like mud on her skirt, which really forced many people to cover their noses.
As for her who wanted to hide, before she got close to the crowd, she was dodged and scolded and exposed to people again.
Because a servant came, a lot of people followed.
And now the sun is getting high, and the number of people going to the streets is increasing.
So within half an hour, more and more passers-by came to watch, so much so that half of the street was blocked.
Just when everyone was gossiping at the few people who came to make trouble, the guy who was dragged by Liu Shulai to give a few words of instructions also hurriedly squeezed into the crowd with an old doctor with a medicine box on his back.
