All enemies bow down to me

"I heard that you want to divorce me?" Tong You said while looking at Jiang Zian.

Just looking at the young man in the Confucian shirt in front of him, his appearance is barely upright, and his figure is only medium.Although she dresses up elegantly, she can't hide the philistine and stupidity in her bones.

Really useless.

But Jiang Zian didn't notice the disdain in Tong You's eyes at all, instead he was extremely arrogant: "That's right, I just want to divorce, and marrying a poisonous husband like you might as well just kill me!"

"Really?" Tong You turned to look at the surrounding villagers in the ancestral hall, and continued to ask: "So you invited these to uphold justice for you?"

"Yes!" Jiang Zian became more and more confident: "Your Gu family relied on such a little kindness to force me to marry first and cut off my future, and now you are trying to kill my unborn child. Naturally, I have to ask all of you to host it for me. justice."

"Master Lizheng is here right now," Jiang Zian said, turning to the head of the village, Li Zhengji: "I have already reported the details of what happened, and I just wait for Master Lizheng to make decisions for the Jiang family."

"Zian don't have to be afraid, our Jiangjia Village will give you justice if there is no unjust case." Seeing Jiang Zian winking at him, Li was busy stroking the beard around his mouth, turning around and shouting to Tong You: "You Poison man! Hurry up and kneel down and plead guilty."

Li Zhengyuan didn't read many books, and he was elected only because of his surname Jiang.Now being sought after by Jiang Zian's decent words of an adult, he also imitated the drama and pretended to be an official.Moreover, Tong You and his son were not taken seriously here.Jiang is the common surname in the village, and the Jiang family has the absolute right to speak in this Jiang family village.Tong You has a foreign surname and has no land, so Li Zheng despises him even more.

However, Tong You was not frightened by his pretentious seriousness. He just thought it was extremely ridiculous, and his expression became more and more calm: "Plead guilty? How dare you ask the Gu family what is the crime? Where is the evidence? It's just Jiang Zian's nonsense now. Zheng Zheng wants to punish me easily. Could it be that there is no kingly law in the world? What's more, regardless of other things, the marriage contract is nonsense."

There was a hint of indescribable arrogance in the corners of the slightly raised eyes, and Tong You faintly revealed the strength in his words, which made people panic.

"Could it be that you mean that the Jiang family wronged you?"

"How is it possible?" Jiang Zian said hastily: "Back then, Gu Laosan insisted on adopting me as a foster son, and raised me with Gu Baizi. Sima Zhaozhi's heart has long been known to everyone. The people in the village are all watching how they treat me. Although I am nominally the adopted son of your family, I have no freedom at all. Not to mention, I am a good scholar, and they force me to learn how to make wine, make wine Buyer. What is this if it’s not insulting?”

"Unexpectedly, there is such a thing?" The ancestral hall suddenly became chaotic.

For Da Zhou, who is inferior in everything but good at reading, it is a great thing to have a scholar in his family.Gu Laosan refused to let Jiang Zian study, but asked him to buy wine, which was no different from digging someone's ancestral grave.

And Jiang Zian also got Wen Jiayue's advice, and took the opportunity to pour Tong You a pot of dirty water.He took out a collection of poems and placed them in front of Li Zheng, and there was a crying sound in his words: "Look, Li Zheng, this is a collection of students' poems compiled in this month's school. I made the first one. The teacher also said , if I can persevere, I will be successful in the future. A talent is definitely possible."

Everyone was shocked.

For these villagers who have never seen the world, Xiucai is like an official.If there is one in any village, all the towns and villages will follow.Besides, Jiang Zian is from Jiangjia Village.If he can really pass the exam, the whole Jiangjia Village will be famous at the same time.

Lizheng's face darkened in an instant, and the eyes he looked at Tong You were also particularly gloomy.As for the other people in the ancestral hall, they wished to eat Tong You raw, as if they had some deep hatred.

But Tong You looked at them mockingly, and said with a sneer, "What a great scholar. I haven't seen any improvement after ten years of schooling, and I can't even recite half of the "Analects of Confucius". The manuscript compiled here boasted that I could be admitted as a scholar. When I was a scholar in Dazhou, they were all radishes and cabbages in the field? What's more, Jiang Zian, you will ruin your future one by one, but I want to ask you, where did you come from? Is there any future for you? My father said that you are a adopted son, but he just saved some face for your Jiang family. Don’t you know what your own identity is?"

Tong You sneered, and then took out an old contract from his bosom, which was exactly the marriage contract that Jiang's mother said.However, what is surprising is that the words above are not a marriage contract, but a contract of sale.

"This..." Lizheng was also shocked.

But Tong You continued: "Jiang Zian was sold to me as a servant of the Gu family a long time ago. My father is kind-hearted, and he couldn't bear to see the Jiang family's difficulties, so he reluctantly accepted it with the attitude of wanting to help. And after Jiang Zian came to my house, his father was worried that he was too young and thought too much. So he secretly changed the concept and said that he was the adopted son. It happened that I was a twin, and there were some rumors in the market. As for why It was not clarified later, and I always thought that the Jiang family knew it well, but unexpectedly, there will be a release today."

As Tong You said, he did a careful calculation for everyone.

The Gu family has raised Jiang Zian for many years, excluding the annual subsidy to the Jiang family, Jiang Zian's annual expenses alone are already more than ten taels of silver.If you add the Jiang family, it will be more than 20 taels per year.

20 taels, what concept?Jiangjia Village is just the most common small village in Dazhou, and the annual expenditure of a large family of dozens of people is only seven or eight taels of silver.There are only three members of the Jiang family, and together they can spend more than twice as much.

For a moment, Jiang Zian's mother and son blushed, and Li Zheng was also shocked by what he heard. As for the other people in the ancestral hall, they couldn't believe what they heard.

"But that's not enough." Tong You pointed to Jiang's mother on the ground beside her: "Compared with the money that Mrs. Jiang spends cutting clothes and buying cloth every year, it's not too much."

Walking to Jiang's mother, Tong You looked down at her: "Don't kneel blindly, why don't you show your lady's money? How were the rules in your family in the past? Drink tea and rinse your mouth before meals, and have a meal Handling a pair of chopsticks is exquisite, and there is a saying for how loud and loud you speak. Fields, vegetable gardens, serving livestock, and shoe soles are not good at everything, but you can read all the characters and draw a few pictures. Which one of the ten miles and eight villages can't guess you The background is not bad? Why are you so shameless today, playing the rogue practice of crying, making trouble, and hanging yourself? Not to mention that I didn’t meet you, even if I did, so what?”

"Jiang Zian is a servant bought by my Gu family. According to the laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty, if one person is a slave, then all the descendants will be slaves. Although my Gu family is not a wealthy family, it is also a decent and innocent family. If you kill a servant, then So what? Even if we sue the county magistrate, it will be up to us, the Gu family."

Things suddenly became subtle.Jiang Zian's mother and son were even more flustered.

Originally, the Jiang family saw that Gu Laosan was soft-hearted and Tong You was a twin. If they opened the ancestral hall, they would have panicked and beat them casually.But he didn't expect Tong You to be so eloquent and turn Jiang Zian into a slave with a few words.

Slaves can be bought and sold, if they are killed, Jiang Zian's future will be completely ruined.

Thinking of this, Jiang Zian was also a little scared, but remembering what Wen Jiayue had said to him before, he couldn't help but get strong again: "Nonsense! The sale contract has no justice, no official title, An Zhi is not you The Gu family fabricated it privately? Moreover, the Jiang family village has always had rules that forbid buying and selling children. Our Jiang family does not have slaves who kneel. You are slandering me like a poisonous man, are you deceiving me that there is no one in the Jiang family?"

"Heh, slave bullying the master can be exiled at least, or beheaded at worst. You are not afraid, what am I, Gu Baizi, afraid of? Opening and shutting is a poisonous man, and he wants to sink into the pond. Such a joke!"

"Don't make excuses! If your Jiang family has no intentions, why would you hand over all the ancestral craftsmanship to me as a servant? What's more, your family is holding me for nothing more than money. I have already checked it out. Don't tell me how much your family spends on my family every year. We deserve it. Don't worry about anything else. The pair of earrings that my mother put on your house is worth thousands of dollars. Don't say It's 20 taels of silver a year, or 200 taels, and it's your Gu family who earned it."

The number of thousands of gold, this is the wealth that generations of people can't save for a lifetime. I wish I could buy the entire Jiangjia Village.And what does Jiang Zian mean, that the Gu family actually embezzled this money?

Everyone was frightened by this amount, and Jiang Zi'an's mother and son were even more dissatisfied.

"That earring, that earring is the only token that can prove my parentage." Having said this, Jiang's mother stopped kneeling, and simply stood up and told everyone about the origin of the earring in detail.As for Jiang Zian, he was filled with righteous indignation.However, they didn't notice that Father Jiang's eyes were a little subtle.

"Since this is the case, why don't we go to court?" Tong You didn't have the slightest fear, turned around and asked Gu Laosan: "Father, do you still have the evidence from back then?"

"Of course." Gu Laosan was already half-dead from anger, but he was too dumb to say anything. Seeing his son's arrangement, he hurriedly took someone home to pick up the box.

The Gu family was originally near the ancestral hall, so it wasn't too far to go back and forth.

After a while, Gu Laosan took the box back, took out the earrings and an IOU and put them in front of everyone: "At the beginning, Jiang Zian's father owed gambling debts, so he stole his mother's earrings and removed gems to pay the debts. But this The price of the gemstone was lowered by the pawn shop, and there was still more than a hundred taels left, so I sold the rest of the earrings to my father. My father didn't want it, but Jiang Zian's father cried pitifully, and couldn't bear to see Jiang's family ruined, so he reluctantly agreed. Come down. There is written evidence here, but it is said that my Gu family has been greedy for your things."

One tael of gold, ten taels of silver.Without gemstones, even if the earrings were made of pure gold, they would be worth a few dozen taels at most, but the Gu family spent a whole 150 taels in exchange for the black and white words.

Tong You looked around the crowd: "According to the calculation, my Gu family has spent no less than a thousand taels on the Jiang family in the past ten years. My father only bought a slave, but raised a whole family of uncles. Now, this slave doesn't know It is shameful to say that we are not. Let me ask, don’t your family members feel wronged?”

Speechless.

No one can answer Tong You's question.Up to now, it is very clear which is right and which is wrong.Jiang Zi'an's family was ungrateful first, and then demolished the bridge after crossing the river. They are despicable and shameless.But even so, the people in Jiangjia Village were unwilling to say anything unfavorable to them.

After all, as members of the same clan, one is prosperous and all are prosperous, and one is damaged and all are lost.If others know that the Jiang family has got rid of such a black sheep, their future reputation will be damaged as well.The unmarried girls and unmarried boys in the family have to weigh them up.

Li Zheng also had the same concerns, frowned and asked Tong You: "So what are you going to do?"

"What about me?" Seeing his attitude, Tong You understood his intentions, and didn't give him face, and said bluntly and sarcastically: "It was your Jiang family who tied me here to beat and kill me, and it was the Jiang family who coveted my Gu family's ancestral property. You Jiang family, but now you are asking me what I want? Could it be that I am trying to force you to death?"

"Also, don't forget..." Tong You's eyes also turned cold: "Many people from all over the world come to my Gu's house to buy wine."

Tong You's few words directly grasped the lifeblood of a village.

Jiang Zi'an's family was unfaithful and unrighteous, he broke his faith and forgot his master, crossed the river and demolished the bridge.Wen Jiayue was pregnant before marriage.If it's just talking about it in the village, it's okay.If it really gets out, then Jiangjiacun's reputation will be ruined.

Absolutely not!The face of the village head of Jiangjia Village suddenly sank.Then, he saw Jiang Zian's expression became cloudy and uncertain.He called several senior clan elders in the village, and they went to the back to discuss together.After more than half an hour, I returned to the ancestral hall in front.

"According to the results of our discussion, the Gu family will go back and calculate the money owed by the Jiang family, and report a specific amount for the Jiang family to consider. If they want a son, they will sign an IOU and pay off the debt. After all, they are in debt It's only natural to pay back the money. As for the Gu family, don't make trouble anymore, after all, you are still thinking about past friendship."

"So, according to Lizheng's intention, then we have to leave it like this?"

"Then what else do you want? Do you want me to force the Jiang family to make amends for you? Gu Baizi, you are a twin, and you are in our Jiang family's village. You will always get married in the future. If you make too much trouble, it will be bad for your reputation."

"Of course I won't do anything. Since Lizheng has given an explanation, whether I accept it or not, I have to accept it. However, there are people in my Gu family who bully the master, and Lizheng will not give me justice. I always seek justice, so I will also accept it later. Don't bother Lizheng, I will meet with the Jiang Zi'an county government. As for the reputation, any marriage is in the village..." Tong You sneered: "Who said I want to marry? Da Zhou Shuang'er is not afraid to marry, even the court There are also many Shuang'er who become officials. My Gu family has a single lineage, so what if I, Gu Baizi, is a Shuang'er? I can still inherit the ancestral business. What's more, even if I want to marry, all of you in Jiangjia Village will be counted. Is there anyone who can be right with my Gu family? What reputation do I want from you? It's a joke!"

"Okay, okay. Gu Baizi, don't regret it!" When it came to this point, it was impossible to continue.Li Zheng was rarely disobeyed by others, and now that he was overwhelmed by Tong You's two words, he didn't even know where to put his face.

But Tong You mockingly retorted: "Of course I won't regret it, I'm afraid it will be yourselves that will regret it in the end!" After Tong You finished speaking, he took Gu Laosan and turned around to leave, not even wanting to take another look. .

As for the other people in the ancestral hall, they all looked at each other in blank dismay, not knowing how to deal with it.As for Jiang Zian's family, they also took advantage of the chaos and fled away.

After that, things were quiet for two days.Tong You never went to Jiang Zian's house to say anything, and Jiang Zian was not looking for Tong You's fault.Everyone thought it was over.However, what is surprising is that Tong You actually sued Jiang Zian's family for bullying the master, and Li Zheng abused his power and disregarded the king's law.

When the county government came to question him, almost the entire Jiangjia Village was shaken.

The prestige of Jiangjia Village in the surrounding area fell to the bottom in an instant, and even the girl Shuang'er, who was married to another village, couldn't hold her head up because of this.Originally, many young girls who had marriage contracts were annulled by their future in-laws, and even the unmarried boys were questioned about the morality of the clan.At the same time, someone who spread the word said that the Gu family has a wealth of wealth, comparable to a family of officials and gentry, and Tong You has excellent character and appearance. Even if they are twins, they are definitely a good match.

For a moment, the reputation of the Gu family in these ten miles and eight towns became louder in an instant.However, the generals in Jiangjia Village have become objects of disgust.

Places like Jiangjia Village have always excluded outsiders.The grandparents of Gu's family were able to gain a foothold here because only Gu's family sells wine in ten miles and eight villages, and the price is fair and the taste is mellow.If you don't buy wine at Gu's house, you can only go to the restaurant in the county to sell it.Not to mention the high price over there, the wine is not as good as Gu's.So it's been safe and sound.

However, Tongyou retired from his marriage with Jiang Zian before, and then sued the officials and slapped the whole village surnamed Jiang in the face. This balance was broken, but in just two days, the Gu family was jointly excluded by the people of Jiangjia Village up.

What's more, on the night before the county magistrate opened the hall, a black shadow sneaked into the backyard of Gu's family, carefully opened the big wine tank in the backyard, and poured something into it.
