Chapter 177: Harmony and Departure
I have to say that the combat effectiveness of the Huang group is too strong. In just a few minutes, Wu Xuanhua's reputation for liking domestic violence spread, and Li and Chunlan Qiuju were unspeakable.
Li was so angry that her lungs were about to explode while crying, and she cared more about her son's reputation than the pain on her body. Because she knew in her heart that in half a day, the entire Qingshan County would spread this matter.
People don't care whether these things are true or not, except for watching the excitement, from now on, people will only say that the Wu family has a young master who kills people without blinking. In this way, who would dare to marry their daughter?
And if no one wants to get married, wouldn't the Wu family be doomed?
She obviously wanted to take someone to Chenjia Village to ask for her guilt, but why did she get like this now, and she was beaten so badly!
Seeing Chunlan Qiuju's face swollen like a pig's head, and the inner thighs of her thighs, including her chest, which were pinched by the Huang family, were blue or purple, the Li family even had the heart to die.
Mother Zhou had already heard the noise outside the door, but she never showed up, but hid in the crack of the door to see it clearly, and her heart was happy. I've been waiting for a few years, isn't this the day I've been waiting for!
It was Chen's mother, seeing the tragic situation in front of her, comforting the Li family while comforting the people of the Chen family, and brought them in. They can't do it on the street, but when they enter the house, it's their world.
Who knows, Huang is also a smart person, and while walking inside, he said to everyone: "Everyone help us witness and witness, don't be in a hurry to leave." If we don't come out for half a day, we will be killed by their Wu family. When the time comes, everyone will help us avenge our grievances. ”
One of the words successfully made Li's mouth crooked.
On the other hand, the problem faced by Master Wu is even more serious. Because what Li is facing is nothing more than pain and humiliation, but the problems he faces are very sensitive, and if he is not good, he will go to prison.
However, he was really unwilling, it stands to reason that such a secret should not be known to an outsider like Ye Feng, could it be that the other party was deceiving him?
Thinking of this, Master Wu pretended to be calm and said, "I see that you are young, so I don't know you in general. You say that our Wujia rice shop is shoddy, is there any evidence? And wash the old rice and sell it as new rice, I, Wu, asked myself if I didn't have this ability. Thinking that you are still young, leave quickly, I will treat it as if nothing happened, otherwise, I will not give up. It must be known that climbing slander is also going to prison. ”
The words are righteous and reasonable, and ordinary people have long been frightened. Although Ye Feng had no direct evidence, he was not afraid, after all, there was still that secret ledger.
Thinking of this, Ye Feng smiled slightly: "What Master Wu said is that Pan False will naturally lead to prison, but what I said is the truth. Since Master Wu doesn't want to admit it, let me say one more thing. ”
As he spoke, Ye Feng told the secrets in those account books. At this moment, Master Wu couldn't sit still at all.
Ye Feng saw that he was crumbling, so he took the opportunity to add a fire: "Master Wu, you said that if I tell these secrets to my competitors, will they be interested in knowing?" Although I am small, there are people in our village. By the way, not long ago, the county lord personally came to Wujia Village to congratulate our Chen Juren. That Chen Juren is my brother, and I asked him yesterday what the outcome would be if he made false accounts to evade taxes. Guess what he said? Illegal gains should be confiscated, and the worst will be a hundred rods with a rod, and the worst will be distributed to the frontier. And ......"
If Master Wu still had the intention of fighting back before, then at this moment, only fright remained. He knew in his heart that what Ye Feng said was the truth.
Moreover, the government has always had a lot of flexibility in adjudicating cases, for example, it is not up to the government to decide what is illegally gained. Once the nature is determined, the government will not care which part of your illegal gains is and which part is not, and will definitely accept them all, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a raid.
When that time comes, it's all over. What the Wu family relies on is nothing more than the wealth accumulated over the years. If there is no money, then their family will be rats crossing the street.
When that happens, worse things will happen. This is the way of the world, people go to tea and cool, and fall into the well. When it was confirmed that they had no strength to restore their former glory, his opponents could do anything.
However, after thinking about it in a blink of an eye, he understood some joints, and said to Ye Feng because he cheered up: "I believe that you are here today to discuss things, right, otherwise, you will go directly to the yamen." ”
"It's not too stupid," Ye Feng thought to himself. In this time and space, it is best not to have anything to do with the official, this is almost everyone's consensus.
Ye Feng and the others did this just to get justice for Chen Wumei, and to take the book and some financial compensation. It's really going to the government, not to mention what the ending is, even Chen Wumei won't be able to gain a foothold in the future.
Regarding Master Wu's words, Ye Feng was noncommittal, but said softly: "Originally, I wanted to go directly to the official mansion, but I was willing to discuss with you for the sake of the in-laws who used to be the in-laws." You have been unkind and have done those private things, but we cannot be unjust. ”
Seeing that Ye Feng was relieved, no matter what he said, Master Wu breathed a sigh of relief first, and then said to Ye Feng: "Okay, you just have to tell me your requirements." ”
Hearing this, Ye Feng knew that the matter was almost done, so he said, "Let's go back to the Wu family and talk about it, we still have some things to take with us." You know, after today, we won't come again. ”
Master Wu thought that Ye Feng was going to help Chen Wumei clean up, and after thinking about it, this rice shop was indeed not the place to speak, so he agreed.
How did he know that the reason why Ye Feng asked him to go back to the Wu family to discuss, firstly, was to see how the Huang family and their "talks" were going, and secondly, Mrs. Liu still had a reserved program that needed to be completed in the Wu family's mansion.
A group of people arrived at Wu's house, but found that there was a bunch of people at the door of Wu's house, and the Li family was riding on the body by the Huang family, beating, scolding, and resting, as for Qiu Ju and Chunlan, they had been drowned in saliva.
It turned out that everyone had agreed to go into the inner house, but somehow they didn't agree and fought again. Li almost said the incident two years ago, so Huang rode on her, beating her so hard that her mouth was planted.
Seeing that Master Wu was back, everyone spontaneously gave way to a way, but their faces were full of contempt. Li struggled even more, and Huang took the opportunity to pounce on the ground, holding his leg and shouting, "Ouch, ouch, my leg, my leg seems to be broken." What can I do? ”
Master Wu was really a little anxious, Huang's voice was so loud, like killing a pig, he was afraid that something would happen, so he walked into the house, and when he passed by Huang's side, he seemed to inadvertently drop a silver ticket.
Huang took advantage of the moment to wipe his tears with a handkerchief and glanced at it, it was actually ten taels of silver, and hurriedly picked it up and held it in his hand, then slowly put away his cry, pretended to be in pain, and followed into the house.
Seeing this, Zhu hurriedly picked up Mrs. Liu and limped in with a bag that she didn't know what she was holding.
"Old man, we will wait for you at the door, and if you need anything, you will shout, and we will rush in to help. I still don't believe it, how can I allow such a rich and unkind person to do evil. The crowd didn't know who said it out loud.
Obviously, this sentence represents the voice of most of the onlookers, who have long been indignant by the story told by Zhu and Huang. Seeing Mrs. Liu's age again, that bit of sympathy overflowed.
A pregnant woman, who was pregnant with a child for three months, was actually beaten out of the womb by her biological father, this kind of cruel thing is simply unheard of.
Although the Huang family was a little spicy, they did the right thing. As a mother's family, if you don't even have this rigidity, the daughter who marries out will naturally be bullied to death.
"Thank you, thank you, everyone, we will call you if necessary. I brought my mother and sister-in-law to thank you. "Zhu has always played a gentle and kind role, and it is most appropriate for her to come forward at this time.
Huang's heart was full of joy, and she felt that she had found a new way to get rich. Farm work or anything is not suitable for her at all. Before Zhu came up, she hurriedly put the silver ticket in hand, and then she and Aunt Zha and Zhu helped Mrs. Liu to follow in.
While walking, Aunt Cha and the Huang family cursed, this god is killed, just the verandah and the copying hand are so magnificent, how rich the Wu family must be. Knowing this, she should have howled for a while longer, and maybe she could get more silver.
Aunt Cha touched her purse, well, the jade hairpin on Li's head and the silver hairpin on Chunlan's head are still there. When she just beat and scolded the two maids, she gave full play to her skills of stealing chickens and dogs in the village, and quickly succeeded.
The silver hairpin is not enough, but it is two taels, and it is estimated to be worth three taels of silver. However, this jasper hairpin is made of transparent material, and the water head is good, so it is worth more than ten taels of silver.
Thinking of this, my heart is dark.
When they arrived at the inner hall and sat down one by one, Ye Feng was about to start the negotiation. He really didn't want to stay here. Master Wu naturally had no opinion, he knew in his heart that the other party came today just to ask for compensation and peace, which was many times better than the Yamen didn't know.
Li didn't know this, he heard Ye Feng say that he wanted to negotiate, and when he saw that Master Wu looked like he was resigned to his fate, he was angry, and endured the severe pain on his body and said: "Master, you are crazy!" These madmen and shrews beat people as soon as they come up, they are simply barbarians, and instead of making decisions for us, you want to make peace with them, what are you thinking? ”
Without waiting for Master Wu to have a seizure, Huang said: "Everyone saw it just now, you crippled my legs, I wasn't angry, what are you angry here." Tell me where you got hurt. ”
She pinched Li's thighs and waist, and Li didn't dare to say it. Even if you say it, you don't dare to show it in public.
"You ......" Li Shi reacted at this time, the other party was really vicious, but so what, she has always bullied people, and there has not been a time when she has been bullied, so he said viciously: "I will not talk peacefully." You wait for me, and I will go to the county government to sue you. ”
Hearing this, Ye Feng sneered: "Master Wu, who is this?" Oh, I think it should be Aunt Li. Aunt Li, you can go if you want, I'm afraid you won't go. Qianshan, let's go, let's go to Yamen together. ”
As he spoke, he stood up, and said to Master Wu as he walked: "Master Wu, you have also seen it, it's not that we are unwilling to negotiate peace, it's that this aunt is unwilling." Hey, it seems that what is rumored out there is actually true! This Wu family, it is Aunt Li who has the final say. ”
As soon as these words came out, the Wu family was horrified, and they all knew that this was Master Wu's death. In addition, Huang and the others began to laugh, Master Wu suddenly became angry, stepped forward and gave Li a slap, after thinking about it, it was not enough to relieve his anger, and his backhand was another slap, and then another forward kick was on Li's heart.
Li had just been knocked over by Huang and ridden and tortured, and now he was slapped twice and was already knocked unconscious. Before he could sprinkle, his heart suffered another strong kick, and he fell to the ground like a kite with a broken string, so frightened that Chunlan Qiuju hurried over to take care of it.
Before Li could speak, he was about to spill while crying, but Master Wu took the first step to threaten: "You don't have the right to intervene in this matter today, if you weren't used to that son of a son every day, why would you be in this farce today." If you kneel for me, and if you dare to make trouble, I will divorce you immediately. Otherwise, I don't deserve the surname Wu! ”
After thinking about it, he felt that this was not the time to quarrel, after all, so many outsiders were watching here, so he had to endure his anger and said to Ye Feng: "If you have any requests, just say it now, we will definitely not refuse what we can do." ”
Ye Feng said: "This matter was not my turn to call the shots. But the person concerned has carte bliac, and I have to speak on her behalf. Our requirements are very simple, one is that we ask for peace and departure, and you immediately go to write and leave the book, take it to the government to seal it, and we will take it and leave. The second is that you have to pay my poor sister a hundred taels of silver in a lump sum. Originally, she didn't want it, but I personally asked for it for her. You also know that she will live alone after she leaves. As for the third, it's up to my sister-in-law to tell you. ”
The first request and the second request were all expected by Master Wu, so he didn't have any opinions. Things have come to this point, and there is no possibility of reconciliation between the two families. And one hundred taels of silver is simply not a matter for the Wu family.
Because the Li family didn't know what kind of terrible evidence Ye Feng was holding in his hands, he was almost crazy when he heard these two requests, but when he thought of the terrifying expression of Master Wu just now, he felt a burst of fear in his heart, and he was immediately defeated, and he didn't dare to say a word.
I had to stare at Huang with hatred, as if Huang would be afraid and didn't dare to make any excessive demands.
Li's gaze was just a piece of cake in Huang's eyes, she pretended to limp to the middle, and then said: "The third request is actually not a requirement, the fundamental purpose is to accumulate blessings for your Wu family." As the saying goes, salute first and then soldier, so I'll put the ugly words first. This time, we have spent a lot of energy for your Wu family, and you have to pay ten taels of silver for our hard work. ”
When Ye Feng heard this, he felt a little helpless, this Huang family is really good, it is clear that he wants to disgust people, and he will definitely not let it go if he has a advantage to take advantage of. The tablet and the paper money only cost a few hundred wen, and she asked for ten taels of silver.
That's it, even if it's her and Aunt Cha's hard work. In modern times, it may be more expensive, and some people are very taboo about these things.
Ye Feng would think like this, naturally she didn't know that she and Aunt Zha had already earned enough of their hard work. Just took advantage of the chaos, and the two of them made a lot of good things.
Before everyone could react, Huang took out a burden from his side, and after untying it, he took out a tablet, which frightened Li Shi to take a step back, and Master Wu also asked a little angrily, "What are you going to do here?" ”
Huang immediately changed his face and said with infinite regret: "What is this? Master Wu, you are a grandfather, you are embarrassed to ask, and you are not afraid that he will come to you at night. ”
Saying that, he sighed again, and said with an expression that I knew would be like this: "Forget it, good people do it to the end, send people to the west, I'll tell you frankly." This is the tablet of your grandson who has not seen the light of day, you don't know about it, do you? ”
When Master Wu heard this, he was so shocked that he couldn't stand steadily, took a few steps back, and only then did he stop with the support of the little guy.
At first, he only thought that his unfilial son had abused Chen Wumei, which provoked people's mother's family to collect evidence in many ways, and they wanted to come to the door to ask for peace and leave. Now it seems that there are more and bigger things that he does not know.
Thinking of this, Master Wu turned around hatefully and looked at the Li family who was crying in a low voice behind him, which made the Li family shiver. That look was really scary, and even a little vicious.
The Li family knew that something was wrong, and this matter could not be hidden, so he sobbed intermittently and said: "Master, the reason why I didn't tell you about this is not because I am afraid that you will be sad, this child has nothing to do with our Wu family." After all, it's not because that cheap embryo accidentally ......"
"You're a! Your whole family is a cheap embryo! No matter how haunted the women of your Li family, all the women who come out of the cabinet are cheap embryos! ”
"You ......"
"What am I! Aunt Li, if it weren't for your playful son punching and kicking our girl in the stomach, this child would still be in her belly at the moment. Poor ah, this is a male fetus that has already taken shape. ”
The Huang family didn't care what Li and Master Wu thought, anyway, they had already torn their faces. At this moment, it is necessary to be fierce and ruthless.
When Master Wu heard that he had lost a male fetus that had already taken shape, he felt a pain in his heart. The Wu family has had a difficult time in these generations, and it is too difficult to have a son. Even the Li family himself has experienced three disasters and eight tribulations, which is why he has such a treasure as Wu Xuanhua.
It would be great if Chen Wumei's baby was saved.
So far, the Huang family has no intention of letting go of the Wu family.
She took the spiritual seat and continued: "Poor this child suddenly left his mother's body, and his soul had no place to rest, so he dreamed of us every night, saying that he was uncomfortable on his body, all scars, and was bullied by the little ghost. We are good people in the end, so we went to the Big Buddha Temple and helped him do a ritual to surpass him. It's just that the master said that he must make a spiritual seat and put it in the room where he had an accident, and put it for three years in a row. After three years, you will either want to lose it or burn it. It's just that in the past three years, you need to live and worship, otherwise, your Wu family's generation will definitely be cut off from children and grandchildren, and no man will be born. ”
Hearing this, Li scolded: "Where did I hear nonsense, but I don't believe it." Hugh wants to scare people. ”
Ye Feng, who had not spoken, smiled: "My sister-in-law is also doing this for the good of your Wu family." That's it, this matter is a lot of things for us, not to mention the money to do things, and we are still disliked. Believe it or not, anyway, we're going to put this spiritual position here today, and you can handle it yourself. ”
Master Wu believes in these things very much, what Li doesn't know is that when he was born, he was also full of disasters and diseases, but he only grew up healthy after listening to the advice of the master in the Great Buddha Temple. If the Wu family breaks their roots here, it is really difficult to escape the blame, and they have no face to see their ancestors and ancestors.
Thinking of this, Master Wu said: "Let's do it, as for the expenses spent, we will pay according to the ten taels of silver we said before." ”
Ye Feng knew that Master Wu would definitely be convinced of it, so it was not surprising to hear him say this. This tablet was placed in the Wu family for a day, and the Li family and Wu Xuanhua did not dare to enter this house, and their hearts were in response for a day.
This sign will forever remind the Li family that a child once died at their hands.
As for Wu Xuanhua, it is foreseeable that his reputation has already stinked, and it is impossible to marry a serious girl again. Of course, their Wu family has silver, but if they spend more silver, there will still be people who lack silver and are willing to take risks.
However, when the newcomer enters the door and sees this tablet, he is bound to feel uncomfortable.
It can be said that this move is really a big piece of people's hearts.
After doing this, under Ye Feng's reminder, Master Wu forced Wu Xuanhua to write a letter of reconciliation, to the effect that the two parties were not together due to their temperaments, and after negotiation, the two parties reached an agreement and agreed to leave, and the man paid the woman a lump sum of one hundred taels of silver.
Taking advantage of the gap between the little servant and the book to the yamen for the record, Master Wu took out another hundred taels of silver to Mrs. Liu and ten taels of silver to the Huang family.
Mrs. Liu, who received the money, cried bitterly, because as soon as she took the money, she would wait for a while and get the book, which meant that Chen Wumei would be a divorced woman from now on.
O her poor daughter.
As for the Huang family, she looked happy, and Aunt Cha immediately approached her. If you want to say that this idea is still her, at this moment, the Huang family got ten taels of silver for nothing, and she should have her share anyway.
The Huang family, who took the silver, naturally wanted to finish the matter. cooperated with Aunt Cha Wu, and with words in his mouth, he welcomed this tablet into the room where Chen Wumei lived.
This room is the largest and best room except for the main room where Li and Master Wu lived. However, the house will not be occupied for three years.
After a while, the little maid came back with the sealed book of the yamen, and Mrs. Liu angrily took one of them and left the Wu family with a group of people. She, like Ye Feng, was unwilling to stay for a moment.
After returning to Chenjia Village, Chen Wumei cried for a while while holding the book and leaving, like relief and helplessness, and others were sad for a while.
Mrs. Liu was seriously ill and recuperated in bed for more than ten days. Fortunately, with Chen Wumei's daily companionship and Ye's nutritious soup, she became more energetic after healing.
As Ye Feng expected, Wu Xuanhua's reputation stinked to a certain height after this incident, and everyone in the city who had a little face was unwilling to associate with the Li family, and even the Wu family's business was much worse.
However, the Wu family naturally would not look at themselves as the last ones, so they spent 800 miles of silver to buy a woman from other places and come back to Wu Xuanhua as his wife.
It's a pity that this woman has not been out of the door for three years. The Li family did not give up, and gave Wu Xuanhua a few more concubines, but the result was still that no one gave birth to a child. What they didn't notice was that Zhou's mother was getting younger and younger.
One day, Zhou's mother went to Zhuangzi to see her crazy daughter, and while combing her hair, she said, "Son, don't worry, my mother has avenged you." As long as I am for a day, that vicious woman will not want to hold her grandson.
