Chapter 240: The hardest thing is the battle between father and son
At noon, it was time to eat, and the two sisters-in-law went to the field to deliver food, and Xi Hongdou and Xiao Zhi also went to see the excitement.
"Look, this piece is all my land." Xi Hongdou said that at the beginning, the family said that she would marry 25 acres of land, although she also earned it herself, but then she bought a lot from Uncle Gao, and then it was all developed into rice fields and dry fields, and now her own rice, her own crabs, and her own cumin are all in demand.
Xiao Zhi saw that Xi Hongdou was really rich, and this place in Hexi Prefecture was really rich.
In the afternoon, Xi Hongdou went to his grandfather's house in the neighboring village, and Grandpa Ding hadn't seen Xi Hongdou for a long time.
"My little red beans are not small, it's time to say kiss, and I don't know which stinky boy will be cheaper in the future!" As soon as Grandpa Ding said this, Xi Hongdou was stunned for a moment, and quickly looked at Uncle Ding and Aunt Ding.
Aunt Ding said: "The old man is old, a little confused, and now he can't tell the time, probably because he forgot that you are married." β
Xi Hongdou's heart was sour, people always have to be old, but the relatives around him have become like this, and it is not a taste in his heart.
"Grandpa, I've already said kiss, this is my fiancΓ©!" Xi Hongdou pulled Xiao Zhi over.
"Hello grandpa." Xiao Zhi said with a smile.
When Grandpa Ding heard this, he got up, looked at Xiao Zhi carefully, and finally said: "Okay, this young man is handsome and majestic, and he looks very talented, and he finally has no grievances against my red beans!" β
Xiao Zhi smiled: "I will definitely take care of the red beans, grandpa rest assured!" β
After a while, Grandpa Ding asked again: "Who is this young man?" "It's a mistake again.
Uncle Ding said, "It's always like this over and over again, and I can't remember what I said, so you can follow him." β
Xi Hongdou nodded, and then took out all the delicious food he brought, there is not much else in Kyoto City, but it brings together the world's delicacies, which is very fresh in Hexi Prefecture.
The grandfather and grandson played around until it was almost dark, and Xi Hongdou and Xiao Zhi left.
This time when she went home, Xi Hongdou felt very comfortable, her daily life in Kyoto City was very fulfilling, she was busy all day long, and her life in Hexi Prefecture was very easy, and she could even sit on the ditch for a day.
"It's really nice here." Xiao Zhi said that it is rare to be able to relax people physically and mentally.
Xi Hongdou said: "If you like it, come and visit it every year." "It's not good to be busy making money every day and being an official."
When I got home after dark, as soon as Xi Hongdou entered the door, I saw Gao Yue and Lu Zhi also there.
"You're there too." Xi Hongdou asked.
Gao Yue nodded: "I have something to say to Sister Hongdou." β
Xi Hongdou looked at Gao Yue's expression very seriously, so he said, "What's the matter?" Why don't you come into the house and say? β
Gao Yue shook his head, and Lu Zhi said, "We want to fight a lawsuit." Then he looked at Lu Zhi.
Lu Zhi has studied and understands Yan Yun's laws and regulations, and knows that through a lawsuit, he can recover the family property.
Xiao Zhi raised his eyebrows: "Are they two old people?" β
Lu Zhi nodded: "We originally wanted to take the second elder away, but they said they didn't want to drag Gao Yue down." "Now the two sons are really not talking, and Uncle Gao doesn't want to endure it anymore. The two sons have been poked in the back, and the Gao family has been disgraced, so what else can't be cared about now?
Xiao Zhi felt that this was no problem, so he said: "Just write the pleadings and hand them over." β
"I thought so, but ...... Her two elder brothers hired a lawyer and spent a lot of money, and we didn't bring much with us this time, and we couldn't hire any good lawyers, so ......" Lu Zhi is a little difficult, and he has to trouble people again. Xiao Zhi is an official, and with Xiao Zhi coming forward, this matter will be easy to handle.
Xi Hongdou looked at Xiao Zhi, and Gao Yue said: "I know we shouldn't open this mouth, but my father and mother can't rely on it, we don't want my father's property, even if the property is coming back, I won't ask for a copper plate, I just ask my father and mother to have someone to support, and ask for these properties back, so that my two brothers take turns to take care of them, and after a hundred years of my father's mother, I will not divide the property of my two brothers." β
Lu Zhi said: "Now even the eldest brother is still pouting, refusing to give in, thinking that we are making trouble in vain, and would rather use the money on the lawyer than use the money to honor my father and mother." β
Xi Hongdou was also puzzled, so he asked, "I haven't heard that your two brothers are so cold-blooded before, how did they become like this?" "When Aunt Gao took Gao Yue in Kyoto City before, the family didn't give some living expenses, and she felt weird in the world, now think about it, maybe from that time, these two sons have already exposed some of their nature.
"My eldest brother is a good gambler, my father has helped pay off a lot of gambling debts, and I didn't dare to say anything before, but now after the separation, the second brother is also a dime, I feel that my father was too partial to the eldest brother, so I feel unfair, and said that the eldest brother should do the things of supporting my father, but the eldest brother's money is still worried about gambling, how can I be willing to take it out?" Gao Yue talked about the situation of his family, and said that the ugliness of the family should not be publicized, and the things in the past were all hidden and not talked about, but now it is the last fig leaf that is not wanted.
When Xiao Zhi heard this, he said: "I happen to be fine, I'm just a lawyer, and it doesn't hurt if I do it." β
Xi Hongdou looked at Xiao Zhi and asked, "Okay" This matter can't be dealt with as soon as the brain is hot, the other party has found a powerful lawyer, in case Xiao Zhi loses the lawsuit, what can Uncle Gao do?
Xiao Zhi smiled: "Don't worry." "Anyway, I have also made a county order, if this case can't be solved, don't mix it up.
Xiao Zhi responded to this matter, and Xi Hongdou did not follow on the day of ascension, since Xiao Zhi played the package ticket, it will definitely be successful, and she is not worried that Xiao Zhi will lose, just wait at home honestly.
At noon, Xiao Zhi came back from the county seat, and the result was the same as expected, and the yamen made the correct judgment very easily. On the one hand, Xiao Zhi is proficient in the law, on the other hand, Xiao Zhi's identity is also famous in Yunzhou City, no matter how clear the county order is, there is no need to face Xiao Zhi, how to judge it.
"What's going on with the Gao family?" Xi Hongdou asked.
"It's time to collect the title deed." Xiao Zhi drank a sip of water, and Lu Zhi and his family should also go back to help.
The two sons of the Gao family had a bamboo basket to fetch water, so they were naturally unwilling to return the ducks they had gotten, but the government was here, and the things at home were in a mess, and they had to leave if they didn't want to go.
Uncle Gao looked at his two sons, his heart was really painful, and he said that raising children can prevent old age, but his two sons might as well be strangled to death at the beginning, and now he has lost face in the village, even if the property is coming back, he can't spit out the nest in his heart, no matter what the result is, he also loses.
"You two, let's go quickly, you can divide the things that are given to you, you can divide them yourself, and don't worry about the rest, we will keep the money for Gao Yue in the future!" Uncle Gao said directly, he thought that his daughter was an outsider after all, so he didn't marry much at the beginning, but his son-in-law also said before that he was willing to support them, even if he didn't give them any property, and he didn't dislike the two of them.
When Gao Yue heard this, she said: "Dad, my daughter doesn't ...... for property" She believes that Lu Zhi is the same as her, and the purpose is not for property.
Uncle Gao waved his hand, he had made up his mind, his two sons were white-eyed wolves, and it would not be wrong to rely on his daughter to support his old age.
Gao Da Niang didn't give any opinions, although her son was born to her, but now her son's behavior has also broken her heart, and she really doesn't have to count on her son in the future.
The matter of the Gao family came to an end, and Xi Hongdou still wanted to go to the door, but Gao Yue came first, saying that they were going back first.
"My father and mother want to sell all the property and go to Kyoto City with us to live." Gao Yue said that her father and mother didn't want to stay in the village, people were terrible, and they couldn't stay here, and the second old man was old, and he couldn't plant any more land, so he simply sold it quickly, and he didn't want to come in the future.
When Xi Hongdou heard this, he said, "This is also good, but the small courtyard where you live is probably not enough." β
Gao Yue's family lives in the small courtyard behind the shop, and it is okay for two people to live, if there are two more people, it is definitely not enough.
"It's okay, Xianggong also saved some money, and my father and mother said that it will depend on us for the elderly in the future, and they will buy a house in Kyoto City." Gao Yue smiled and said, "Don't worry about us, I also thought that the child would buy a small yard by himself when he is older, and now it is fine." β
Xi Hongdou thinks it's good that this is good, and Lu Zhi should also have a home of his own.
After sending Gao Yue away, Xi Hongdou also missed his son a little, and it was enough to go back to his parents' house, so after thinking about it, he discussed with Xiao Zhi about returning to Kyoto City.
When the young couple went to resign from the family, the family was reluctant, but after all, the daughter who married out couldn't live in her mother's house all the time, for fear that her in-law's family would have complaints.
"Be careful on the road, and you don't need to send us things to the caravan, we don't lack anything, and you can accompany your mother-in-law more when you have time." Aunt Xi said.
Xi Hongdou smiled: "Let the things sent by my mother-in-law give me, my mother can rest assured, my mother-in-law is very good to me!" β
The two left, and the whole family looked at their daughter, Aunt Xi regretted more and more that she let Xi Hongdou marry far away, and now it's good to see each other every year.
Xi Hongdou and his family went all the way back to Kyoto City, and they were also in a slow and leisurely hurry along the way, according to Xiao Zhi's meaning, there is no hurry now. When they arrived in Kyoto City, Lin Da hurriedly came to report that Guo Xiao had been imprisoned.
"When?" Xiao Zhi asked.
"Just this morning, I originally wanted to send a letter to the young master, but unfortunately I can't read big characters, and I don't dare to find someone to write on my behalf, so the young master is back!" Lin said with a laugh.
When Xi Hongdou heard this, he said: "I have time to go to Dongfeng Teahouse to learn to write." Xiao Zhi is also capable, let the illiterate be an assistant, and he is not afraid of dropping the chain.
