Chapter 375: Shut the Dog's Mouth
The yamen has been very busy recently, and one after another has received reports that they are all scams from the Imperial History Mansion.
They paid for the Zhuangzi shop, and were about to go to receive the goods, but they were stopped by the people of the Lin family one by one.
So the people of the yamen carefully read the contracts, they are all white deeds, and they are all stamped with the seal of the old lady of the Xiao family, in short, these contracts are invalid, and these Zhuangzi shops belong to the Lin family's property.
Since it is the Lin family's industry, the yamen has to go to the Lin family to verify.
If the Lin family agrees to sell these properties, it will not be much of a problem, at most there is one more process, replacing the white deed with a formal red deed, and improving the formalities, so as not to be tongue-in-cheek in the future.
But when the yamen arrived at General Lin's mansion and saw Mrs. Lin, Mrs. Lin said that the Lin family's background would not be so bad as to sell their property, so the yamen would strictly investigate.
Since the Lin family did not agree to sell it, the yamen could only go to the Imperial History Mansion in accordance with the law.
When the people from the Yamen went to the Imperial History Mansion to see Mrs. Xiao, the old lady's things had already been packed to the end, and she would return to Western Xinjiang tomorrow.
"Old Madam Xiao, there have been people in the Yamen today and recently, you are suspected of fraud, and the sale is not an industry in your name." It was the new Cao Zhutou who took the right person to the Imperial History Mansion, and when he saw the old lady, he went straight to the point.
The old lady didn't make a sound, but the Zheng family next to her said angrily: "Full of nonsense, shut your dog's mouth, what is fraud?" Those are all the Xiao family's property, the Lin family's dowry, but the Lin family has long since died, and those things belong to the Xiao family. ”
"Second lady, before you speak, learn to respect first, although I am a fast catcher, I am also doing things for the imperial court, and the dowry that I have come to marry can be bought and sold freely if it is exchanged for a red deed in the yamen, but now the buyers are all white deeds, so they are all from the Lin family." Cao Zhutou said unhappily.
Old Madam Xiao said gently: "Okay, I will communicate with the Lin family, and all the money from the sale will also belong to the Lin family, I don't want it, but recently my granddaughter Xinyun Weng had an accident, and I was uneasy, so I didn't deal with this matter in time." ”
"The old lady will communicate naturally, now there are too many people who go to the yamen to complain, spend their life savings, real money, and can't get the Zhuangzi shop, the old lady will either give the buyer double compensation, or go to the Lin family to communicate with the trade to make the sale legal, and the buyer will get the Zhuangzi shop, otherwise the buyer will continue to make trouble and sue the emperor, then it will be troublesome."
Cao Zhutou saw the packed baggage in the house and said: "Before the case is closed, the old lady is not allowed to leave Kyoto without permission. ”
The old lady instantly darkened her face: "What do you mean?" I said that I would communicate with the Lin family and get things right, but you just said that you would tell me double the compensation, and now you told me not to leave Kyoto. So I'm a criminal? ”
Cao Zhutou smiled unknowingly: "The old lady will communicate first, before the communication, everything is not easy to say, we will come back tomorrow." ”
After speaking, Cao Zhutou led the team away.
Old Madam Xiao's eyes were full of cold light: "General Lin's family has just come back, how can they know about the store?" As soon as the contract was signed, why did someone go to the yamen to complain immediately? ”
"What then? I've taken all the money, and I want to return it? Zheng worried.
"Call your brother over, and I'll ask him to go to the Lin family to negotiate." The old lady said.
"What's the use of my brother going? It is estimated that the people of the Lin family hate him to death, where will they listen to him? Zheng continued.
"Just let him communicate first, delay the time, we will leave later, we can't wait."
Zheng called Xiao Yushi over according to the old lady's instructions.
