Chapter 86: Bargaining
Song Qingyuan stood in the corner of the ancestral hall with a light smile, and said in a crisp voice, "Since Aunt Chunlai wants to go to the Yamen, then let's go to the Yamen." ”
"But it's .....," Song Qingyuan paused.
"I don't know if the county order has time, when I came back before, the county order was drinking with my father." Song Qingyuan said lightly.
"The county magistrate will drink with your grandfather, who are you fooling!" Aunt Chunlai pouted, she didn't believe it.
"Yuan'er, don't talk nonsense!" Song Lizheng said solemnly, the county order is not something that can be used as a joke.
It's not good to brag about being so young.
Song Qingyuan chuckled, "Yuan'er is back today, and I have good news to tell you!" ”
"My grandfather has been promoted to a post officer!"
"It was personally appointed by the commander of the Jinyi Guard!"
"The commander of the Jinyi Guard, that is the master of the three products of the court, as soon as the commander speaks, the county commander immediately records my father's name in the register."
"I don't dare to delay at all, this will be celebrated in the county." Song Qingyuan smiled slightly.
She is not lying, Jin Yiwei spoke, how dare the county order be delayed.
"This ......" Song Lizheng looked at Song Qingyuan in disbelief, "Is your master really an official?" ”
Song Qingyuan nodded affirmatively and shouted, "Uncle Strong!" ”
Chen Dali stood up, "I am a handyman at the post station, and I prove that Old Man Song is already our post master." ”
"Today, Uncle Dali drove the donkey cart at the post station to send me back." Song Qingyuan said.
"If my lord is not a post man, how can I be qualified to use the donkey cart of the post station, and how can I be qualified to instruct Uncle Dali to do things."
"Is your father really an official?" Song Chunlai asked tremblingly.
The people don't fight with the officials, the post is small, and he is also an official in the county.
What's more, this post man also drinks with the county order.
"Yes!" Song Qingyuan nodded again.
"Yuan'er?" Zhou looked at Song Qingyuan excitedly.
Song Chengzhong, Song Chengli, and everyone in the Song family, including the Song family, looked at Song Qingyuan, the Li family, and Shiro with inquiring eyes.
"My grandfather has really been promoted!" Shiro shouted.
The ancestral hall instantly turned hot and exploded.
"Song Zude is really an official......" "Song Zude is terrible!"
"He is our Song family, and it is also good for us if someone becomes an official." People were talking to each other.
The person who was still standing with Song Chunlai's family just now also quietly moved away a few steps.
Song Qingyuan saw it in his eyes and remembered it in his heart.
That's the power of status.
Giving up a purse of silver in exchange for a post-office position, the sale is worth it.
"Didn't Aunt Chunlai say that she was going to the county office? Let's go now. Song Qingyuan made a gesture of please.
"Oh, I forgot to tell Aunt Chunlai......" Song Qingyuan suddenly realized, "Yamen executed one for stealing today." ”
"Who are you fooling? There are so many people who steal things, how can they be executed for stealing. Aunt Chunlai pouted, she didn't believe it.
"If the people don't raise it, the officials won't be held accountable!" Song Qingyuan said lightly.
"No punishment is because there is no plaintiff!"
"Now Aunt Chunlai wants to go to the yamen with us, and our family is naturally the plaintiff."
"According to the criminal law of our dynasty, a burglar shall be punished with 80 boards and fined 30 taels of silver."
Song Qingyuan shook his head, "Aunt Chunlai, can your brother Haozi's physique stand the eighty boards?" ”
Song Hao panicked when he heard this, and shouted anxiously, "I didn't steal, I didn't steal, you have no evidence to say that I stole something." ”
Not to mention the eighty boards, he can't stand the top ten boards.
Song Hao touched his buttocks, not to mention being beaten, he felt pain when he thought about it.
"Entering a private house without the permission of the owner is the same as theft." Song Qingyuan's crisp voice said loudly.
"What do you mean?" Song Hao was puzzled.
"That is to say, if you enter their house without their permission, you will be charged with the same crime as stealing." Song Lizheng explained.
"This ...... What's the matter? The corners of Song Hao's mouth trembled, his legs began to tremble, and a cold sweat flowed out of his forehead.
Didn't he just sneak into someone else's house, how could it be so serious.
He doesn't know! If he knew, he wouldn't have dared to.
"Mother......" Song Hao looked at Aunt Chunlai helplessly, his mother asked him to do it.
Aunt Chunlai's face turned pale, and her body was shaky, "My family Haozi didn't steal anything, this is also a crime?" ”
"The crime of trespassing into a private house! This is stipulated in the law of the imperial court. Song Chengzhong continued.
"This ...... This ......," Aunt Chunlai cried out, "We won't go to the Yamen, we won't go." ”
"No, no! Now our family wants to sue you, sue you for trespassing! Song Chengzhong puffed out his chest and said.
"Patriarch, we are all from the Song family, and the affairs of our Song family should be resolved within the Song family......" Song Chunlai's father looked at Song Li and prayed.
"Chengzhong, the ugliness of the family should not be publicized, this is the business of our Song family, don't make trouble in the yamen." Song Li was looking at Song Chengzhong and discussed.
"No......" Song Chengzhong was about to refuse, when he saw Song Qingyuan shaking his head with her.
Song Chengzhong didn't understand what it meant, and looked at Song Qingyuan with inquiring eyes.
Could it be that Yuan'er was lying just now?
It was because of Yuan'er's words that he had the confidence to face Bo Gong with Song Chun.
"Uncle, we are all members of the Song family, and we can't write two Song characters in one stroke, so don't make jokes, so as not to make people underestimate our Song family." Song Qingyuan said softly.
Song Chengzhong understood, and immediately continued, "Yuan'er is right, we are all members of the Song family, and if there is something, close the door and solve it by ourselves." ”
Song Lizheng breathed a sigh of relief and nodded approvingly, "It's still honest and sensible, and Yuan'er knows how to advance and retreat." ”
Song Lizheng paused and continued, "I still just said that, this matter is indeed Song Hao's fault. ”
"But Song Hao was beaten like this, I'm afraid he will ...... in the future"
"So Chengzhong, your family still has to pay some compensation."
"The Chengzhong family has something, one of our Song clans will donate some to see if we can cure Song Hao's leg." Song Lizheng groaned.
"What do you think?" Song Lizheng asked.
Silence.
Song Lizheng sighed, "Let's donate more, donate less, who hasn't had a difficulty, everyone stretches out ......"
"As for the Chengzhong family, you will take ......"
"Ten taels!" Aunt Chunlai answered, "My son's legs are worth ten taels no matter what!" ”
"Ten taels of silver is enough to marry a daughter-in-law!"
"If you open your mouth in the lion, I don't care, you go to court yourself!" Song Li is waving his hand, wanting to pick a pick.
"No, don't go to court, don't go to court!" Aunt Chunlai hurriedly shook her head.
"Five taels!" Aunt Chunlai thought for a while.
"Humph!" Song Chengzhong snorted coldly.
"Those three taels!" Aunt Chunlai continued to reduce the price.
"You want to be beautiful, let's go to court!" Lee pouted.
"One or two!" Aunt Chunlai stretched out a finger, "One or two can't be less." ”
