261 Where the dowry went
Song Haonian led Song Xiuxiu to Liu's house, and from afar he saw that the people of the Liu family and the Song family surrounded the three layers inside and three layers outside, pointing and pointing something from time to time.
Song Xiuxiu was a little timid, holding Yuanyuan and taking a step back, knowing that today was the time to decide the fate of her mother and daughter, and she didn't know what the result would be.
To say that when Yuanyuan was just born, she had the determination to fight hard with Liu Rulong, these days, as Yuanyuan grew up, Yuan's eyes were open and looking around, Song Xiuxiu couldn't help but soften, and her determination to die dissipated unconsciously.
As long as people don't die, they always have to live, and how they want to live, it depends on today, so she can't help but be nervous.
Song Haonian urged Song Xiuxiu: "Go in, no matter how bad it is, it's better than you calling someone to death at his house." ”
Song Xiuxiu took a deep breath and nodded: "Second brother, I was ignorant in the past, and I caused you a lot of trouble." ”
"Just be sensible in the future. Song Haonian didn't bother with Song Xiuxiu, pushed away the crowd and walked inside, Song Xiuxiu followed behind him, and was squeezed by someone.
In the hall of Liu Rulong's family, Master Liu and the patriarch of the Song family have already sat on both sides, and the patriarch of the Wang family is invited to testify.
As soon as Song Xiucai entered the door, Xiucai's mother said loudly: "Do you still know where to come back and die with my granddaughter?"
Song Haonian said: "You said that my niece is your granddaughter, but your son said no, you mother and son will make it clear before they come to talk to us." ”
He has always been kind, but suddenly he was mean, and Xiucai Niang was stunned, watching Song Haonian line up everyone, bring Song Xiuxiu into the hall, and stand in front of several respected foot elders. Patriarch Song spoke first: "Something like that yesterday, if it weren't for the big year's quick opportunity, I'm afraid that there will be a murder of his wife in our town." There has never been such an evil thing for decades, and if the officials know about it, they may be sentenced to a crime in our town for being tricky and failing to educate.
”
Master Liu didn't speak, Liu Rulong is a dignified scholar, and he does things that have no conscience and no ethics, so that Master Liu can't do it if he wants to protect him.
Song Xiuxiu lowered her eyebrows and saluted everyone, except for Yuanyuan, she was the youngest and the lowest in this room, if it weren't for the owner, she wouldn't be able to stand here.
Patriarch Song hurriedly said: "Good boy, get up quickly, I have wronged you these days." ”
Of course, he didn't think there was anything distressing about Song Xiuxiu in his heart, but Song Xiuxiu was the daughter of their Song family, and if the patriarch didn't come forward, he would make someone poke his backbone. Song Xiuxiu rarely heard a warm word, her eyes turned red at the moment, she knelt on the ground with a "bang", kowtowed, and said: "I married myself to his Liu family, not to mention how virtuous I am, I am filial to my in-laws, and I am serving my father-in-law, and I finally did nothing wrong." Liu Rulong fell in love with someone else, and wanted to force the nest to death, kill my daughter, begging
Uncle call the shots for me!"
Since last night, she has been thinking about rhetoric, although people are not smart, they finally sorted out a few words that sounded coherent, knelt down and began to shout grievances.
Originally, everyone thought that it would be good to know that Master Liu and Patriarch Song had made it clear today, and there was nothing wrong with Song Xiuxiu, but Song Xiuxiu opened her mouth, and things became more interesting, and Patriarch Song couldn't help but glance at Song Haonian, only if he had taught his sister in advance.
Song Xiuxiu didn't say what kind of justice she wanted, she just complained about her grievances, and hugged Yuanyuan and cried sadly. She was now so emaciated that she was reduced to a handful of bones, and she looked pitiful, and now there were soft-hearted women outside who could not help but cry.
Patriarch Song said to Master Liu: "It is taboo to spoil concubines and kill wives, not to mention that if you haven't entered the door yet, you have to kill your wife and daughter, such a thing, you have to take care of it in your clan." ”
Master Liu only felt that his face was disgraceful, he thought that he had been presiding over the affairs of the clan for decades, and all the clansmen were kind, where did he think that he could do such an unethical thing with the seed of reading that he valued the most?
Master Liu stared at Xiao Xiucai and said: "Rulong, your uncle of the Song family is right, there is no reason to kill his wife and daughter for women outside, if you admit your mistake today, I will give up this old face to intercede for you and ensure your family reunion." ”
Liu Rulong had already been impatient with Song Xiuxiu's posture, and the green tendons on his forehead popped out, and he said loudly: "With me without her, with her without me!"
Patriarch Song smiled and glanced at Master Liu, and Master Liu couldn't help but sink his face and said, "Have you messed around enough!
That Liu Rulong is fascinated, he can't wait to go to Song Xiuxiu immediately, marry Miss Huang and enter the door, where do you remember benevolence, righteousness, etiquette, wisdom and faith, that is, the ancestral family, he also forgot everything, and only hated these individuals for hindering his smooth progress. Master Liu routinely persuaded him a few words, and when he saw that he was sure to divorce his wife, he sighed in his heart: Although Song Xiuxiu is ordinary, her mother's family has a powerful second brother, and using the power of this second brother is not necessarily much worse than borrowing Brother Huang's power. Liu Rulong is too short-sighted, and it will be difficult to become a big tool in the future...
...
Liu Rulong didn't know that Master Liu was extremely disappointed in him in his heart, and saw Master Liu bowing his head slightly and said: "In this case, I will be the master and allow you to divorce." I couldn't help but be overjoyed, and my slender face was about to shine. Master Liu turned his head and discussed a few words with Patriarch Song, to the effect that the marriage was irretrievable, and it was better to ask them to divorce. The Song patriarch had already prepared, and naturally promised not to fall, and everyone with a discerning eye knew that Liu Rulong and Song Xiuxiu would not live for long, and the really important things of the Song family were still miles ahead
。
Sure enough, when it came to divorce, Liu Rulong immediately threw out a letter of resignation, but the Song family refused to accept it, saying that Song Xiuxiu had never made seven mistakes, even if she wanted to divorce, she had to divorce.
As the saying goes, a husband and wife for a hundred days, this is not true here in Liu Rulong, he and Song Xiuxiu were reluctant to be husband and wife, and there was not much affection, but now it is the time when they are bored and can't do it, and they can't wait to kill Song Xiuxiu immediately.
Song Xiuxiu is too cheap to divorce, and only by divorce can he get out of his bad breath: if Song Xiuxiu hadn't designed to think about him at the beginning, he would not have been forced to marry Song Xiuxiu, and now there will be so many obstacles to marrying Miss Huang.
Liu Rulong blamed Song Xiuxiu for all his unsatisfactory results, and he himself did not have a trace of mistakes.
Or Song Haonian said: "Either you divorce or you don't divorce, you choose, our Song family will never allow you to take a leave of absence." ”
He was tall, every word was like a nail on a piece of wood, and no one doubted his determination.
Liu Rulongxin said that he should have expected that Song Xiuxiu was Song Haonian's sister-in-law, and this family was not a good thing, so he should not marry her!
Xiucai's father didn't quite understand the difference between divorce and divorce, so he discussed with his son in a whisper: "It's a big deal, let's get out of here, tell her to get out of the house earlier, and our family will do a happy event again." ”
Xiao Xiucai looked at his father, and almost didn't put the tea bowl on his father's head: "He Li wants to pay back the dowry!"
Xiucai's father was stunned, he didn't expect the dowry!
Since Song Xiuxiu married into his family, she handed over all the dowry boxes to Xiucai's mother, and she had to be cheeky to ask for money from her mother-in-law.
At this time, as soon as Xiao Xiucai reminded him, Xiucai's father suddenly thought that his family had used up Song Xiuxiu's dowry, and his family ate and drank all of Song Xiuxiu's!
How can the benefits in one's own hands be shared with others? Xiucai's father was shocked and shouted: "Don't get along!"
"Then what does your family mean that you want Liu Rulong and Xiuxiu to live on?" Song Laohan and Song Haoshi seemed to be sawing gourds without saying a word, but Song Haonian asked.
Liu Rulong gritted his teeth and said, "I want to divorce my wife!" The conversation went back again, while wanting to divorce his wife, and on the other hand, he wanted to divorce, no matter what, he couldn't go together. Asking the head of the Wang family to come to mediate at this time, the head of the Wang family stood up and said: "Don't worry about it first, I already know about the affairs of the two of you, in my opinion, everyone looks down and doesn't look up to see it, do it."
Things are good in the past. ”
He said and glanced at Master Liu.
Although the words of the Wang patriarch were a little biased in favor of the Song family, Master Liu didn't think there was anything wrong: the girl of the Song family married into your family, didn't do anything bad, and gave birth to a girl to your family, in the end, she couldn't even get a peace and separation, who would dare to marry the Liu family in the future?
Therefore, Master Liu nodded and said: "In this way, I will make the decision and leave, such as a dragon, you go to write a letter to release your wife." ”
It was like a thunderbolt hitting Liu Rulong's head on a sunny day, he looked at Master Liu in disbelief, and said in a lost voice: "Uncle, you can't let go of your wife!"
Master Liu's eyes stared at Liu Rulong's face, Liu Rulong hurriedly lowered his head, Song Haonian had already sneered: "Why can't you let go of your wife? I want to ask, my sister-in-law accompanied twenty acres of land and several boxes to your house, and now you want to divorce, where is the dowry?"
Where does Liu Rulong dare to tell the whereabouts of the dowry? People say that marrying a man and marrying a man, dressing and eating, and a woman who uses her dowry after marrying will make people laugh, not to mention that a man using a woman's dowry is called eating soft rice, and if he says it, he will make people laugh to death!
Liu Rulong and Xiucai's father didn't dare to say, but Xiucai's mother dared, she pulled the window at the door of the hall to listen to the movement inside, heard the dowry inquired inside, and hurriedly screamed: "What kind of dowry, it's all called this ruined girl defeated!"
The patriarch of Song immediately said: "You want to say that Xiuxiu is big and big, and I believe that those boxes and cages have been defeated." How can she, a woman, lose twenty acres of land?"
Song Xiuxiu raised her head and said: "Uncle listened to me, I have only been married in this house for a few days, and the dowry will be handed over to my mother-in-law, she said that I am a loser, I don't accept it!"
In ancient times, infatuated women were negative men, and Song Xiuxiu was willing to hand over the dowry of her life to the Liu family, which shows her infatuation. There is nothing in the countryside where there is no need for a woman's dowry, but it is still too much to take away all the dowries of other people. Song Xiuxiu said: "I don't want those cage clothes, just let me have a game in your house and make a good fate." But the twenty acres of land that my mother's family married to your Liu family have to return to me, and my daughter and I will have to live on that land in the future!"
