Ahh

Disloyalty, filial piety, and injustice!

These three accusations are too heavy, ordinary people have to peel off their skin when they get any of them, and the three accusations fall on their bodies, and a person cannot face social accusations when he is alive, and he will also bear a stigma that cannot be washed away after death.

Regardless of men, women, young and old, to survive in this world, you have to talk about face.

Cheng Zhishu didn't save face for his eldest brother at all.

The neighbors' eyes changed when they looked at Cheng Qing and the Liu family.

If Cheng Zhishu's accusation is true, they are just speaking for a person who is "disloyal, unfilial and unrighteous", everyone's sympathy is fed to the dog, and no one will feel comfortable.

Of course, it's not that they believe whatever Cheng Zhishu says, at least the accusation of 'unfilial piety' is doubtful, Cheng Zhiyuan and his stepmother Zhu have contradictions, and the neighbors know it, so they will listen to it.

But unfaithfulness and unrighteousness...... Is Cheng Zhiyuan really greedy for disaster relief money?

Liu wanted to defend her deceased husband, but on such an occasion, she was so anxious that she couldn't even speak clearly, and her defense was incompetent.

The three daughters of the Cheng family want to speak, are you willing to listen?

Unwillingly!

What is called a little lady in the boudoir, that is, the daughters of the family were raised in the boudoir before they got married, and they are not qualified to participate in major events.

Only Cheng Qing, as Cheng Zhiyuan's 'only son' and the only male in the family, can argue for his deceased father at this time-

"The third uncle, the first father and the step-grandmother split the family, and they didn't ask for any family wealth, and gave up everything that the eldest son of the second house should inherit, which is also called unfilial piety? Old things, the little nephew doesn't want to argue with the third uncle, presumably there are still notes in the clan that the family was separated! ”

Cheng Qing looked annoyed.

In fact, there was no response to the letter sent to the old house, and the coffin was carried to the door of the second room and the door was closed, Cheng Qing had already expected the attitude of the second room.

However, the step-grandmother Zhu is also really stingy, and after 19 years of separation, she has to give the original eldest son a stigma of unfilial piety.

Cheng Zhiyuan is stigmatized, and Cheng Qing is not good, she is the 'son' of a disloyal, unrighteous and unfilial person, and it will be difficult to move an inch in the Great Wei Dynasty.

How can this work?

There is no need to act, Cheng Qing can be emotional:

"As for disloyalty and injustice, my father entered the office from the nine main masters, and worked diligently for more than ten years to achieve the seven pinzhi counties, the flood in Hetai Mansion, my father ran on the front line of flood fighting, and counted the dead and alive on the river embankment, Jiangning County is the least affected county in the entire Hetai Prefecture, he is worthy of the trust of the imperial court, and he is worthy of the people under his rule, and the third uncle can erase his father's merits and dedication with a touch of his mouth, it is too much——"

It's too shameless.

The enthusiastic old man He picked up these words in his heart.

"You yellow-mouthed child, you actually opened your eyes and said nonsense, your father was obviously sending the minister to Jiangning County to kill himself, and hanged himself in the county government with a rope, if he didn't do something wrong, how could he commit suicide in fear of crime, you really have to wait for the court to announce the crime, you will admit it? Such a disloyal, unrighteous and unfilial person, the second room can't accommodate him, and the ancestral tomb of the Cheng family can't accommodate him, so letting his coffin enter the door is dirty to the land of the second room and dirty to the Cheng's century-old upright family style! ”

Cheng Zhishu knows a lot.

Cheng Zhiyuan was indeed hanged to death in the county government with a rope.

Cheng Qing 'woke up' too late, if she had come earlier, she would definitely not have agreed to Liu's hasty return to her hometown.

The woman in the back house didn't understand the twists and turns, but when the Qin Cha who investigated the case was a good person, and the so-called account books could not be found in the county office, she allowed the Cheng family to bury Cheng Zhiyuan first.

Hehe, such an inexplicable burial, hasn't Cheng Zhiyuan's "suicide in fear of crime" become a fact? If you can't find the living, you will blame the dead, after all, the dead will not defend themselves.

Whether it was really suicide or "suicide", Cheng Qing was very skeptical!

Cheng Qing can't reverse what has happened, but she can still grasp what didn't happen - after she 'woke up', the coffins were transported to the post station outside Nanyi County, and it was too late to return to Jiangning County, Cheng Qing could only sing such a big drama to redeem some disadvantages.

Cheng Zhishu is aggressive, Cheng Qing is not stage frightened, and he stinks to death in his heart, and he has to borrow the name of Lord Qincha to use it:

"Third uncle, the imperial court has not yet convicted the late father, and Lord Qin Cha Zhang is still staying in Hetai Mansion to thoroughly investigate the disaster silver embezzlement case, the third uncle can understand the progress of the case better than Lord Qin Cha Zhang, and convicted the late father on his own? It's ridiculous, the third uncle said that my father was not filial, but I want to say that the third uncle has no brotherhood, and he is not as good as these righteous neighbors...... It is not others who want my father to turn over hopelessly, but my own family, if my father knows under the spring, it will be difficult to turn a blind eye! ”

Cheng Qing was emotional, coughing while talking, and her thin body swayed:

"Without the permission of Lord Qincha Zhang, how can we orphans and widows transport our father's coffin back to Nanyi?"

Cheng Zhishu's accusations shocked the neighbors.

Cheng Qing's defense is quite methodical.

One is Cheng Zhiyuan's half-brother, and the other is Cheng Zhiyuan's own son, who is telling the truth?

The neighbors were confused.

Even the previous enthusiastic old man He didn't dare to speak casually, Cheng Qing and Cheng Zhishu The two uncles and nephews were at a stalemate, and I don't know who called "Master Cheng Wu has arrived", and the crowd immediately split their way.

Cheng's family affairs, of course, must be solved by the Cheng family, Master Cheng is the patriarch of the Nanyi Cheng clan, and it is best for him to handle it!

An old man with a goatee walked up, he walked vigorously but not rudely, his beard was half white, his face was still ruddy, and he seemed to be in good spirits.

This person is Cheng Qing's short-lived grandfather, the same generation of Cheng Wu's master, is the head of the fifth room, and is also the head of Nanyi Cheng's family, and the manager of Nanyi Cheng's general affairs.

The patriarch was not enthroned by the imperial court, but he was more powerful than the officials within the family, and the power of the ancient clan was difficult for modern people to imagine without personal experience.

If Cheng Qing didn't have the memory of the original owner's little girl, she wouldn't have taken Cheng Wu in her eyes.

It is precisely because he understands the power of Master Cheng Wu in Nanyi Cheng that Cheng Qing wants to make such a scene today...... In fact, the person she wanted to see the most was not her step-grandmother, Mrs. Zhu, not the third uncle Cheng Zhishu, but the patriarch of the Nanyi Cheng clan.

"Let the neighbors laugh, this is an internal matter of the Cheng clan, but it has made the neighbors uneasy."

As soon as Master Cheng Wu spoke, the neighbors responded enthusiastically.

The Cheng family is the largest family in Nanyi County, and the status of the fifth master Cheng in Nanyi County is even better than that of Nanyi Zhi County.

The magistrate often changes, but the Cheng clan has been entrenched in Nanyi for a hundred years, and the newly appointed magistrate of the imperial court has to visit Cheng Wu first when he arrives in Nanyi County.

Such a transcendent Cheng Fifth Master in Nanyi is, of course, very difficult to fool.

The reason why the second room did not allow Cheng Zhiyuan's coffin to enter was not as high-sounding as Cheng Zhiyuan said.

And Cheng Qing, who seems to be thin, is not very old, but he is quite successful.

What the two sides insist on for what, Master Cheng Wu knows it.

He didn't pay attention to Cheng Zhishu, but looked at Cheng Qing.

A sallow face, a thin body, and a very inconspicuous little man.

Cheng Qing stepped forward to salute, and the Liu family also took his daughters to salute, and Master Cheng Wu bowed:

"You grew up in another place, and this is the first time you have returned to Nanyi County, but your name has been written on the family tree, and you are a descendant of the Nanyi Cheng clan. Cheng Qing, you answer me now, you made this move, but you just ask your father's coffin to be buried in the ancestral grave? If your request were so simple, I would have agreed immediately. ”
