Chapter 24 The matter is decided, Old Man Sun teaches Sun
Wang Yongde and Wang Junxian looked at the attitude of the village chief, and sighed in their hearts, this time it seems that even the village chief and clan elders are not standing in their Wang family.
It is also said that the village chief and clan elders are surnamed Sun, and although the Sun family is not the first family to count several generations, they are related to each other.
"This matter, to put it mildly, it was the Wang family who withdrew from the marriage first, and I think the Wang family will pay the Sun family one hundred and fifty taels of silver, and the Sun family will pay the Wang family twenty taels of silver, so let's just pass this matter."
The speaker is Sun Hongyun, the patriarch of Hulu Village, who is seventy years old this year and is the most respected patriarch in the village.
"Why! Their Sun family has no evidence, so why should they share everything on us! Zhao Chuncui said unconvinced.
"If you are not convinced, then I will report to the mayor tomorrow, let the mayor report to the county office, let the arrester come over to find out the truth, and the county master will decide the case, how about it?" The clan elder was also angered by Zhao Chuncui's nonsense at this time.
"Break it!" As soon as Zhao Chuncui finished speaking, Wang Yongde pulled her, Wang Junxian bowed to the village chief and the clan elder and said: "I admit the punishment, and the silver money should be thanked to the grandfather of the Sun family for saving his life back then, and my filial piety to Uncle Sun, although I have no fate with the gourd, the friendship that grew up together is still there, don't ruin the relationship because of a little thing." ”
Sure enough, he is worthy of being a scholar, and in a few words, he will resolve the matter, and all things will develop in the direction that is beneficial to Wang Junxian, even if this matter spreads, everyone will say that Wang Junxian is righteous.
Mrs. Sun was indignant and wanted to say a few more words, but Old Man Sun grabbed her hand and shook her head and said, "When you speak now, it is not Wang Junxian who is choking, but the clan elder." ”
"Then you can't let him reverse black and white, my gourd, I have suffered so much grievance, you know, you still don't tell me!" Mrs. Sun said, her eyes were already red.
Sun Hulu hugged Mrs. Sun's arm and said, "Mother, now the village chief and clan elders are obviously thinking about Wang Junxian is about to participate in the imperial examination, and they want to settle things. Let's take a step back first, and there will always be a chance to get it back later. ”
"It's all my fault, I went to smash her house, and I lost twenty taels of silver in vain! That's all gourd's hard-earned money! Old Lady Sun thought about the verdict of the clan elder just now, and felt extremely guilty.
"Uncle Village Chief, please write us a document for this matter, both sides will sign and draw the pledge, it will be good for everyone." Sun Hulu appeased Mrs. Sun, looking at Wang Junxian and Wang Yongde who wanted to leave, how could she let them leave easily, according to the urine nature of the Wang family, let them leave this time, don't want to come back with this silver!
Wang Junxian's face darkened instantly, this woman turned against him again and again, originally he wanted to give her the title of a concubine in high school in the future, but now it seems that hum, it is worth a girl!
Sun Hulu didn't know what Wang Junxian thought, but he just looked at Wang Junxian with his eyes, and made it clear that he would not give up if he didn't take the money.
"Uncle the village chief, it's okay to write a paperwork, but the time given to the silver can be forgiven for a period of time." Wang Junxian saw that the village chief had already begun to lay paper, and hurriedly said forward.
The village chief turned his head to look at the clan elders, and the three clan elders discussed it and said, "You can have a grace period, but it can't exceed three years, and you have to write down the profit money together, Maocai, what do you think?" ”
Old man Sun nodded, "It's all up to the clan elders." ”
The clan elder nodded with satisfaction, the village chief lowered his head, and began to write documents, deducting the twenty taels that the Sun family gave to the Wang family, and the Wang family needed to compensate the Sun family for one hundred and thirty taels of silver, and the repayment period was three years. After Sun Yongchang finished writing the document, the Wang family and the Sun family signed together, because it involved Sun Hulu's thirty taels of silver, so when signing, in addition to Wang Yongde and Sun Laotou, Wang Junxian and Sun Hulu also signed, the document was divided into three copies, one in the clan, and one in each of the Wang family's Sun family.
Don't underestimate this document, after this document is written by the village chief, he will go to the town to find the town mayor to notarize it and stamp it with a big seal, which is legally effective.
After signing the paperwork, Sun Hulu handed the paperwork to Mrs. Sun to collect it, and the old man called several children in the family to the front and said: "The Su family has given so much silver this time, and they don't want it, but we can't treat it as nothing, from today onwards, we will go to the town to do odd jobs when we have time, and strive to return the Su family's money as soon as possible." ”
"Don't worry, Dad, I have told the housekeeper of the Su landlord's house, and when the farm is busy, I will take the mountains, the big trees, and the big trees to the Su landlord's house to work first, and pay off the debts with the work first." Sun Daniu and Old Man Sun said.
Old man Sun nodded, his eldest son is honest and honest, in addition to farming, he will also make great efforts, but he has a good heart, and he brings the younger brother below very well, Old Man Sun is still very satisfied with his eldest son.
"Grandpa, I won't go to the school anymore, I want to go to the town as an apprentice, and wait until I earn money to pay off my debts!" Sun Jin walked up to Old Man Sun and said seriously.
Old man Sun looked at his eldest grandson, "Brother Jin, Bai Xiucai told me, you are a reading material, you have to study hard, this time, do you know why our family is standing in charge, but there is still nothing to be done about the Wang family?" ”
Sun Jin raised his head and shook his head and said, "Is it because there is no evidence?" ”
"There is no evidence only on the one hand, on the other hand, Wang Junxian is a scholar, and he has passed the children's examination, this time, as long as he plays normally, a talented man is ironclad. Do you understand? Shi Nong Industry and Commerce, he will be a scholar in the future, and our Sun family is a farmer! ”
Old man Sun said heavily, this time, who in the Sun family does not feel aggrieved, and it hurts people and calculates the reputation of the gourd, but they just have no way to take Wang Junxian, the clan elder seems to be partial to the Sun family, so that the Wang family pays for the medicine, but it is only for the medicine.
"Grandpa, I know, I will study hard, he Wang Junxian is a talent, I will take the exam, he Wang Junxian is a lifter, I will take the exam, in short, I must press him down! In this way, no one will dare to bully our Sun family anymore. The little aunt can also be her female yaksha with peace of mind, can't she? ”
Old man Sun nodded, "Grandpa is old, the future of the Sun family still depends on you, Brother Jin, you are the eldest in the family, you want to set an example for the younger brothers and sisters below!" ”
Sun Jin nodded solemnly, from that day on, Sun Jin understood that if he didn't study, he couldn't say it easily, he didn't study for himself!
