This case is difficult to decide, not only involving the sister-in-law and the brother-in-law, the child daughter-in-law and the mother-in-law, but also the relationship between the main family and the aunt. In any case, if the verdict can be judged in the end, if no one can be killed, it will be the best result.

Fortunately, the county master of the official family and Xue Lichang are both good people with good consciences, and they both sympathize with the poor child daughter-in-law.

"Yes, yes, Captain Lieutenant is right." The people who were watching more and more echoed it.

"Wow" The aunt cried loudly, crying and hating the five eyes of the sky.

When everyone saw her like this, they had to sigh. The mother-in-law in the main room was very happy, and Zhang Luo was about to sell the girl's hair on the spot.

The mother-in-law of the Li family actually wanted to sell it for five taels of silver, and everyone retreated when they heard it.

If you want to talk about sympathy, they are quite sympathetic, but if you want to pay money to buy her, it is a different matter.

Five taels of silver can buy a young woman with light hands and feet, and this girl looks rough and dark, and she doesn't look like a smart and clever person. Whether it's bought to be a daughter-in-law or a maid, it's not cost-effective.

"Madame, please buy me." said that she was stupid, but she was not stupid. Knowing that the most capable and likely to buy her here is this noble prefect's wife.

Everyone also looked at Mrs. Prefect expectantly, Mrs. Prefect is beautiful and kind, she should buy her, if this is the case, this girl is really lucky to burn high incense.

Diancui hesitated, she had already interfered in this matter, and there was really no need to buy this maid......

"If Mrs. is embarrassed, why don't you buy her by Qingqing."

Qin Qingqing, who had been silently observing this matter, successfully shifted everyone's attention to her.

Diancui was noncommittal, only looked at her slowly, and was silent for a while. Qin Qingqing only felt that her scalp was numb when she saw it, and at this time, she came out to pay for this maid, so she took everything she had done in front of her.

This matter of grabbing credit in public, Qin Qingqing thought to herself, you only allow me to rob me of the credit of taking care of Brother Yuan, and you are not allowed to accept the benefits praised by everyone?

"Well, since someone wants to pay money to buy Zhang Yatou, the matter will be settled." Diancui said lazily.

"Cangcang, don't pay the money soon." Qin Qingqing breathed a sigh of relief, and under the admiring and excited eyes of everyone, she bowed her head slightly and whispered to the maid.

Cang Cang pursed her mouth, this girl looks very stupid, Miss bought her for nothing, and spent five taels of silver, and when she sold it to the Qin Mansion, it was only three taels of silver.

Reluctantly took out the silver, and before it could be handed to the Li family's mother-in-law, it was snatched away by the crying aunt on the side and put it in her sleeve.

"Master, I think this silver should be regarded as compensation for the loss of my son." The concubine was still immersed in the grief of losing her son, but when she saw that the silver reacted and shot faster than everyone else, she still grabbed her cuffs and said to the Li family man.

The man of the Li family was not easy to speak because of a man's unspoken instruction. Only knelt down in front of the county lord and begged the lord to handle it impartially, the county lord discussed with Xue Dachuan, asked Xiang Diancui again, and finally came to the case again, and patted the five taels of silver as compensation for the Li family's aunt! In the future, whether Zhang Yatou is dead or alive has nothing to do with the Li family.

The aunt of the Li family stopped crying when she got the silver, on the other hand, the main room was very worried because of the loss of five taels of silver, but she thought that she could achieve the absolute position of the head of the family in the future, so she didn't say anything anymore.

The case is over, and when dinner was in the evening, Diancui specially invited Qin Qingqing to come.

"After today's Li family case, I came back and read "Women's Rules" again, and I had a new understanding, there are clouds in the book: the matter of the concubine is the female monarch, and the matter of the wife is the uncle. Do you know what Miss Qin means? Dian Cui took a little drink of osmanthus and asked with a smile.

"This ......" Qin Qingqing didn't quite understand what she meant, but she had been reading the book "Women's Rules" since she was a child, and she was already familiar with it: "This means that the wife is the king of the backyard, no matter how many concubines a man has, the concubine room must respect and obey the wife like respecting and obeying her in-laws." Otherwise, it will be contrary to human ethics and even intolerable by the law of etiquette. ”

Diancui nodded with satisfaction, poured a glass of osmanthus brew for Qin Qingqing with his own hands, and said: "A man is like an adult, three wives and four concubines are common, but if the backyard is restless, it is a disaster, for the sake of stability and smoothness in the future, the concubine should be the wife, and be harmonious and humble." ”

Qin Qingqing's hands trembled, her eyes widened and she looked at Diancui, what she meant...... For the first time, Qin Qingqing's blushing of excitement appeared on her blushing face:

"What Madame said is very true, Qingqing sighed to herself."

Diancui nodded with satisfaction, this dinner was very enjoyable.

"Ma'am, do you want to read tonight?" When Qin Qingqing was full of food and drink, she couldn't help but leave, and it was the habit of the ladies to serve the jade and read two pages before going to bed.

Xin'er thought about it and found out this "Women's Rule" to present.

Diancui glanced at it, very disgusted, and said, "Let's take the notebook." ”

Saying that, he threw it aside, turned two pages in the book, and turned to the male and female protagonists, and the female protagonist said what "I wish to have a heart and a white head will not be separated", ......, Diancui only felt stunned, threw away the notebook and turned his head to sleep.

The doctor changed the prescription for Diancui, which was very useful after eating. Seeing that this voice is getting clearer and brighter, except for some cold sweat at night, this spirit is very good.

"Madame's body is all right?" Qin Qingqing came in with a snack box: "I went to the small kitchen and rolled out some thin noodles and leaves, boiled them in chicken soup with ginseng, and sprinkled a small half bowl of wooden leaves when they came out of the pot." Madame, try it, this leaf is very soft and smooth. ”

said that he didn't fake his hands and people, and personally set up the dishes and chopsticks on the small table, scooped a small bowl of chicken soup and muxi noodles evenly, stirred it with a spoon, and waited until it was not hot, and then sent it to the hands of the big girl Qiuyue.

Diancui ate the noodles and leaves she made, and her face was also gentle, and said: "In half a month, it will be the Mid-Autumn Festival reunion, and we have to leave for Fucheng as soon as possible." ”

"Yes, Qingqing will go back and prepare." Qin Qingqing couldn't help but be overjoyed.

"It's not in a hurry, it's raining heavily these days, and when the rain stops, it's not too late for us to set off again."

"Yes, Madame's voice is not yet complete, and she is not in a hurry to return to the city." Qin Qingqing was gentle and obedient, and went to the eaves to burn bamboo and make charcoal bags with Qiuyue Xin'er and a few maids, until noon, and talked to Diancui for a while before going back.

In fact, Diancui is not in a hurry to leave, because there are still some side thoughts, that is, the matter of Qiuyue and Xue Dachuan, Xue Dachuan's meaning is very obvious, but he can't get Qiuyue's response for a long time, so he doesn't dare to rashly mention it to Diancui.

Diancui saw that he was really sincere, and he was a little more satisfied with him in his heart.

After Qin Qingqing packed up the dishes and chopsticks and went out, Diancui looked at the non-stop rain outside, and suddenly spoke: "Although Qianjiang County is not as prosperous as Fucheng, it can be regarded as a simple and complete range of people. ”

Qiuyue on the side was afraid that the rain outside would come in, so she lowered the bamboo curtain on the window and said with a smile: "It's just that there is more rain here, which makes people feel so depressed." ”

"Sister Qiuyue, this is bad, when you enter this land south of the Yangtze River, not only does it rain in Qianjiang County, but also in Hangzhou Fucheng. Let's be this Jiangnan woman in the future, we have to get used to it. Xin'er laughed, she grew up by the river when she was a child, and she had a natural affinity for water and rain.

Diancui smiled and said that Jiangnan women are not as loud as you.

Xin'er hurriedly covered her mouth, picked up a handkerchief and covered her mouth and nose, making that shy, but her eyes were dripping and rolling, causing Qiu Yue and the others to laugh and beat her.

"Qiu Yue wants to stay in this Qianjiang County?" Diancui waited for them to finish laughing, found an excuse to send Xin'er and them out, and asked Qiu Yue alone.

After listening to Madame's words, Qiu Yue immediately understood her intentions. She Qiuyue is not a fool, what Xue Dachuan did was too obvious, others could see it, how could she not see it herself.

"That Xue Dachuan has talent and money, and the adults have said that he will definitely be good in the future. He is pleased with you now, and if you are also interested, I will make the decision to marry you both in a few days. "If you want to marry Qiuyue Xu to Xue Dachuan, although Dian Cui is reluctant, she feels that it is an excellent marriage.

It's just that this Qiuyue's mind is hidden deeply, so that others can't see through it.

Qiu Yue bowed her head and was silent, and Diancui only thought she was shy, and she didn't urge him. After a long time, Qiu Yue raised her head and said softly: "Madam, I don't want to." ”

Don't want to? Dian Cui was surprised and asked why? Isn't it because Xue Dachuan is not white and tender enough? But that little white face is the most unbelievable......

Madam! Qiu Yue was ashamed, when did Mrs. still laugh like this.

Why is that? Diancui asked, to put it mildly, Qiuyue is really not young, if you miss this Xue Dachuan Village, there will be no such store.

No, I just don't like it, Qiu Yue said firmly.

Diancui was silent for a long time, and kept sighing in her heart, what is wrong with this girl Qiuyue, is it impossible to be an old girl by her side for a lifetime. Diancui was afraid that she would reject Xue Dachuan because of herself, and specially enlightened her, but Qiuyue was a stubborn character, and she said she didn't want to, and even Xue Dachuan's face disappeared one after another.

If this could not be done, I had to give up.

When it was time to leave for the city, he didn't wait for Diancui to say goodbye to Xue Dachuan, but he came first.

Dian Cui looked at him and lost a lot of weight in just a few days, and his beard was unshaven, and he sighed in his heart.

"Madam, I have resigned from the post of lieutenant chief, and I want to return to the city with my wife this time," Xue Dachuan said astonishingly: "In the future, I will be loyal to the prefect." ”

Diancui was surprised and asked if he had discussed it with the adults.

Xue Dachuan nodded and said that it had been discussed a long time ago, and the position of the governor of Qianjiang County was an expedient measure for him to discuss with adults.

With him Xue Dachuan, he should go farther and higher. Xue Dachuan has a sense of momentum and arrogance, which is right for Yuan Zhiheng's temperament.

"That's great!" Dian Cui smiled happily, there is a way to get the autumn moon first near the water, as long as he Xue Dachuan follows the adult in the future, plus his own matchmaking, he will not worry about the two of them.

"Madame's words are very true!" Xue Dachuan had a scruffy beard, but his eyes were firm.

Qiu Yue was stunned for a long time when Xue Dachuan resigned from the post of chief, and the blush on her face did not disappear for a long time.

This person, but he bit him twice, and he still relied on it!

In the autumn moon of the year of Huaxin, the face became more and more beautiful.

The other maids looked at it and snickered.
