Bianshanhan [farming]

After having dinner with the officials and finding out the county government's judgment on the case, Li Qingrui stuffed everyone with money, saying that he would stay here for a while in the future and rely on their care.

On the second day, when Li Maoxian and Li Qingrui went to Zhao's house, Zhao's family stopped them from entering, and a woman's filthy curses came from the house.

The scolding person was the woman who was stabbed. She was very angry. It was just like what they heard from the doctor. Luckily, she was blocked by two hard pancakes, and the slit was only a finger long. It was not a big deal. hinder.

The Zhao family pointed at Li Maoxian's nose fiercely, and cursed: "She has the guts of a bear, and she dares to use a knife to commit murder. If she doesn't kowtow to my mother this time, she will pay another 200 taels of silver, and she will lose her head!"

Li Maoxian looked at him, and said calmly: "I'm afraid you don't care about this, and you have to go to the Yamen to judge the sentence. I have a clear law in the court, and the golden blade hurts people, breaks bones, and damages eyes. I will be imprisoned for two years. If your mother's stomach If you have a child, the punishment may be aggravated because of this knife, your mother’s wounds are almost healed, if you want money and your head, it is blackmail.” (Note 1)

Seeing the Zhao family clenched their fists angrily, Li Maoxian continued: "My sister didn't attack people for no reason. It happened for a reason. Your family made rumors and caused trouble. Your tongue is a soft knife. You can kill without blood. The neighbors in the neighborhood can testify. You must be aware of the details, and you will be convicted lightly."

What Li Maoxian said made sense, and the Zhao family was a little confused. They originally wanted to take the opportunity to blackmail a fortune. Listening to what he said, it was like fetching water from a bamboo basket in vain!

Could it be that this knife was in vain? !

The faces of the Zhao family turned red and then turned green. Li Maoxian stepped forward, leaned into the Zhao family's son's ear, and said a few words quickly.

The young son of the Zhao family was angry with blue veins on his forehead, raised his hand and punched Li Maoxian in the face, and said angrily: "You old bastard, how dare you insult my mother!"

Li Maoxian obviously dodged, but suddenly fell to the ground, unconscious.

Li Qingrui and others next to him rushed forward, surrounded the Zhao family, and shouted: "Killed, killed!"

The youngest son of the Zhao family puffed up his eyes and said: "He scolded my mother, I just punched him, how could he die, you are making false accusations!"

"We didn't hear anyone swearing!" Li Qingshun said loudly, "I just saw you beating someone! My uncle has always been in poor health, and he would collapse when the wind blows. He will definitely not be able to take it when you suddenly!"

Someone next to him said: "Stop it, don't let them escape, kill for life!"

Li Qinghong ran to report to the official. When the official came, he saw the Li family surrounded the Zhao family. The son of the Zhao family was still saying, "I just punched him with no force. If he meant it, he must He deliberately pretended to be dead..."

Li Qingrui said to the officer with red eyes: "My father was trying to reason with them, but who knows, he suddenly raised his hand and hit them. My father is unconscious now, Mr. Officer, you must make the decision for us."

The officer only had a drink with them last night, and now he pretended to say: "Hurry up and take your father to see a doctor, and take away the one who beat you!"

The son of the Zhao family struggled desperately, "I am wronged, I am wronged, he is pretending, he is pretending, they want to frame me on purpose..."

Li Maoxian was carried to the hospital by the crowd. Li Qingrui kept saying that his head was broken. The doctor called Tianmai for a long time, but he didn't notice anything wrong. But the head is the key point after all, so he didn't dare to say anything, so he said to stay and have a look. .

Then, Li Maoxian stayed in the hospital, where Li Qingrui, Li Qingshun and others took care of him.

The doctor didn't want so many people to stay, but Li Qingrui made a sincere request and gave enough money, so he just let it go.

That night, the houses of the women in Osmanthus Alley with broken and smelly mouths were all doused with feces. Even though it was cold, the stench was disgusting.

The two doors of Zhao's house were also full of excrement and urine. People passing by had to cover their mouths and noses and walk away.

Only the Li family came, so many things happened in this alley, even a fool would know why.

Those families were so stunned that they almost fainted, because of that incident, they didn't dare to come out to scold them, so they stayed inside their own door panels, pointing fingers and scolding Huai for about an hour.

The Zhao family was also angry, but they didn't care too much. Their son was taken away by officials, and they had to find a way to save him.

They went to the yamen to ask, and the official said that the Li family members were still lying in the hospital, and their life and death were unknown. If they really died, they would be charged with serious crimes.

People in the Zhao family don't believe that one punch can kill someone. They know that Li Maoxian did it on purpose, so the wife of the Zhao family also pretended to be dead at home, and asked the family to go to the Yamen to say that the knife made her die of pain. Or die.

The officials knew that the two families were fighting each other, so they were very impatient, but they had to pretend to be business-like when they took other people's money, and asked them to write complaints and come to the yamen for trial.

The Li family spent money to ask the master to write, and at the same time, they also went to the prison to deliver food and drink to Li Maoyu every day.

Li Qinghong went with his cousin on the third day, Li Maoyu heard what happened outside, and showed regret on his face, if she hadn't taken this step, elder brother would not have suffered this crime.

Li Qinghong persuaded her, "Guy, it's okay, my father said that you should eat and drink here, so he dealt with that vicious godmother, harvested the autumn, the family is fine, and nothing will be delayed."

Li Maoxian was really pretending. He deliberately angered the youngest son of the Zhao family in order to make him do it.

Originally, Li Qinghong and Li Qingrui wanted to take over the job of being beaten, but Li Maoxian was afraid that they could not pretend well, so he went into battle himself.

For several days in a row, the houses in Osmanthus Lane were still splashed with feces at night, cleaned up with painstaking efforts during the day, and dirty again at night.

Those people were so angry that they finally couldn't bear it and ran to the door of Liu Dacheng's house and cursed loudly.

Li Qingrui and the others took water and poured it on them, causing screams.

In such weather, they were wet from head to toe. Those people couldn't help it, so they had to go back and change their clothes. After changing their clothes, they came out to scold. This time, they didn't dare to be at the door of Li's house. They staggered a few doors, so they were not far or close .

After scolding for a while, the family next door quit and came out to chase them away.

The more these women scolded during the day, the more excrement was dumped at home at night. They jumped in anger, but Li Qingshun and the others felt a little distressed. All these excrements were bought with money.

In fact, the big guys all know who threw the dung, but you can't catch anyone, and those families want to turn the Liu family back. Li Qinghong and his more than 30 young men took turns guarding them day and night, and they couldn't find a chance.

Now the people in Osmanthus Lane understood that the reason why so many people came to the Li family was to teach those who bullied Li Maoyu a lesson.

The boy from the Zhao family and Li Maoyu both lived in the big prison. Li Maoyu moved to the innermost cell, where he was quiet and could see the light. His cell was full of blood-stained instruments of torture. Enough for him, he accidentally got hit twice, his arms were pinched and purple.

He knew that Li's family had written the complaint, and he heard that before going to court, they had to hit the board. He was very scared and begged his family to get him out as soon as possible.

The Zhao family went to the official, but the official said that Li Maoxian hadn't woken up yet, and the case was a bit tricky.

At the same time, Li Qingrui took Liu Yuehao and Liu Yuelai, knocked on the doors of Osmanthus Alley from house to house, asked about Li Maoyu's malicious slander by those poisonous women in the past, and wrote it on paper, asking them to testify.

In fact, most of the people here are people who live an honest life. They hate the long tongues of those women, but they dare not provoke them easily. They are worried that their family will be retaliated in the future. Even if they only use their mouths, they will It can torture people enough.

If you just say that everyone is willing, but if you want to press your fingerprints, you will back away, not wanting to cause trouble for yourself.

Brothers Liu Yuehao and Liu Yuelai knelt down and kowtowed to the neighbors in the neighborhood, begging them to help this time. Li Qingrui also said that what was written on the paper was true, not fabricated out of thin air, but just used as evidence and would not be publicized.

After talking for a long time, an old man finally agreed.

As long as someone starts, the rest will be easy. Li Qingrui spent more than a month writing dozens of testimonial papers, and felt very heartbroken that his aunt had suffered so much grievance in the past.

At this time, Li Maoxian had been lying in the hospital for a month and a half, and was secretly covered by someone to eat something every day. The doctor seemed to have noticed something and didn't say much.

The Zhao family couldn't sit still. The Li family went to the neighbors to ask questions during the day, and kept throwing excrement at night. After more than a month of cursing, their voices became hoarse.

In fact, Li Qingshun and the others were not the only ones who spread the dung, and those who were bullied by them also took advantage of the chaos to vent their anger.

Those families went to the officials and told them how the Li family had treated their family, but no one got all the stolen goods, and they couldn't arrest people just by talking.

In this way, the stalemate continued until the beginning of winter.

No one in Osmanthus Lane expected that the Li family could last until now.

The Zhao family already knew about the matter of Yinzi, so there was no need to think about it. They gritted their teeth and sued Li Maoyu to the Yamen. Li Qingrui and the others immediately handed over the testimony of their neighbors.

The day before this, Qin Lin also arrived in Nanyang County. When Li Maoxian's letter arrived in Li County, he happened to be away. After reading the letter, he rushed here immediately.

After Qin Lin arrived, he went to see Li Maoxian first. At this time, there was no outsider in the room, so Li Maoxian sat up and stretched his sore body, "Brother Qin, please take this trip."

Qin Lin is a child of a poor family. He enjoyed a lot of wealth and glory when he was young. Later, his family suffered a lot and suffered a lot of setbacks. When he was dragged to build the capital many years ago, he got acquainted with Li Maoxian and Cheng Nianming.

Now everyone is singing about how prosperous and magnificent the capital is, but nowhere is it written about how many people died when it was built.

A carpenter, a farmer, and a young master who can't lift his hands, the three of them survived the difficult times with support, and became friends in need.

When they set off, Li Maoxian didn't know what was going on in Nanyang County, so he made the worst plan and wrote a letter to Qin Lin in Liushan County.

Qin Lin was a little helpless, looked at him and said: "At this age, you still have to play these tricks, and you are still the same as before, you brat."

The two may not have seen each other for a long time, even in this situation, Li Maoxian is still somewhat happy.

The business is important, and both of them put down the past. Qin Lin looked at the sheets of paper Li Qingrui handed over, and said solemnly: "I have clear laws and regulations. The matter of wounding someone with a weapon can be big or small. If the person is only slightly injured, The punishment will not be heavy. However, if you hurt someone with a sharp weapon, even if you miss it, you will be punished with a staff of [-] boards, and you will be punished with a second class if you bleed. Evil women are hateful, and Maoyu's move is too reckless, but it is sympathetic, the county magistrate The adults should reduce the punishment as appropriate."

Then, Qin Lin talked about the sentence of their case of assaulting people with weapons in Li County, and said: "No matter what, Maoyu will definitely suffer. I brought the letter from County Magistrate Zhu this time, so I will go Visit the county magistrate to find out what he has to say."

County magistrate Zhu is the incorruptible magistrate that Qin Lin has always followed. The two cherish each other, have worked together for many years, and love each other as brothers.

Unexpectedly, magistrate Zhu would be troubled by family affairs, Li Maoxian felt a little uneasy, Qin Lin smiled, and said softly: "If he is not busy, he would also like to personally thank you for telling me the method of squeezing sugar, which will benefit all people and benefit us a lot .This letter is just a mutual greeting between colleagues, and it is not for him to bend the law for personal gain, so you can rest assured."

Qin Lin said so, but when he went to the Nanyang County government office and presented the letter, the magistrate of Nanyang County was very surprised. Although he had never seen it, he had heard of the names of Magistrate Zhu and Qin Lin.No, maybe they should be called the prefect Zhu. They have made many achievements in the first place, and later they produced sorghum sugar. They were rewarded by the court and promoted two ranks.

The county magistrate of Nanyang County never expected that these two people would be involved in a fight between two women.

On the day of the trial, Li Maoyu and others were brought to the hall, after reading the complaint, they began to examine the injuries. After so long, the Zhao family's wife's wounds were almost healed. Li Maoxian listened to Qin Lin and did not continue to pretend.

He recovered suddenly, and the Zhao family boy was finally able to come out of the prison.

Then there was the questioning of confessions, and the officials brought the people from Guixiang Lane to the auditorium.

The county magistrate first asked the neighbors whether the Zhao family's wife was soliciting rumors and making troubles all day long, maybe it had been drawn on paper. Words and evil deeds.

The wife of the Zhao family kept shouting for innocence, Li Maoyu knelt on the ground, looked at her eldest brother and nephews, sniffed, and her eyes were red.

This incident sounds appalling, but the wife of the Zhao family repeatedly provoked and insulted her first, and Li Maoyu acted rashly later. After all, it can be regarded as excusable. The wife of the Zhao family was slightly injured, and Li Maoyu was sentenced to three months in prison with an additional [-] yuan. For the banzi, Mrs. Zhao's family and the other four wicked women in Osmanthus Lane each hit forty big banzi to correct the people's customs.

Hearing the verdict, Li Maoxian heaved a sigh of relief.

Li Maoyu was dragged outside to beat the board, and the wife of the Zhao family howled like a pig being wronged. Because of disturbing the court, another ten boards were added.

The officers and soldiers broke into Osmanthus Alley, and arrested the other women on the complaint paper to be punished, and then there was a burst of shouting.

Even though the Li family used the money early, the execution guards would not really beat him hard, but after the two hundred boards were paid, Li Maoyu still couldn't stand up, and was supported by Liu Yuehao and Li Qinghong.

The other women suffered a real blow, and were dripping with blood after the beating.

This board was much heavier than Li Maoyu's pricking, and the people in Osmanthus Lane looked at it with a bad breath.

Just after finishing the fight here, Li Maoyu could go home after Li Qingrui handed over the silver over there.

Imprisonment is to be detained in one place and do all kinds of heavy labor and handyman. Three months is the shortest and most lenient, and people can be redeemed with money.

Qin Lin had been working in the county government for so many years, so he naturally knew that the magistrate of Nanyang County was punishing him leniently, out of gratitude.

No one expected that this matter would be held up high like this, and finally put down gently.

Everyone in the Li family finally put their hearts in their stomachs, and Li Maoxian carried Li Maoyu home from the county government.

The Liu Yueyun siblings threw themselves on their mother, crying bitterly.

Li Qingrui finally blocked Liu Dacheng with his people, and a group of people threw him against the wall and threw the written and Li Shu over. This was Li Maoyu's intention. After this incident, she could no longer live with Liu Dacheng.

Liu Dacheng didn't want to reconcile, so Li's family beat him, beat him up, asked him if he was reconciled, shook his head and continued to beat him.

Later, Liu Dacheng couldn't bear it anymore, nodded and said he was willing, Li Qingrui beat him anyway, the anger in his eyes didn't disappear after the beating, this man is not worthy to be a husband, but a father!

Liu Dacheng, with a bruised nose and swollen face, pressed his handprints tremblingly. Li Qingrui put away the book and escorted him to the yamen to get his seals stamped.

Knowing that parents and mother are reconciled, the four brothers Liu Yueyun and Liu Yueyun will follow their mother. No matter how shameless Liu Dacheng is, he will not be able to stop them after all.
