During the famine, my ancient well connected to modern times

Chapter 232 Brother-in-law beats brother-in-law

Aunt Qian on the side couldn't help it anymore, ran over and pushed Fang Dalang away, Fang Xiaolang, and protected her son, "What do you want to do? Beat my son in front of me, do you think I am dead? Let me tell you, our old Qian family It’s not something to be trifled with. If you offend our Qian family, be careful and you won’t be able to eat it and walk away with it.”

Yamen Qian subconsciously looked at Magistrate Wang, and with a thought in mind, he scolded: "This matter has nothing to do with the Qian family. What you do is your business. Don't mention the Qian family."

Qian Yamen's status in the clan was not low. Aunt Qian immediately shut her mouth when she heard this, but there was a strong threat in her eyes.

The Qian family is a big family in Qingzhou. If you offend the Qian family, unless you are from a family like the Pan family, it will definitely not be a good life for an ordinary person.

In the past, this was also the reason for the Fang family's forbearance.

However, this time the Fang family did not intend to endure it.

Shopkeeper Fang winked at his two sons and said to the county magistrate: "Mr. magistrate, we can testify that the death of my eldest granddaughter has nothing to do with Dessert Xuan. I want to sue Qian Jin for murdering my daughter. I I also want my daughter to reconcile with him, and ask the county magistrate to uphold justice."

Magistrate Wang sighed, seemingly helpless: "Harmony requires the consent of both parties."

Qian Jin's eyes lit up, "I don't agree. Even if she dies, she will die in front of us."

Mrs. Fang shook her daughter's body in her arms, her eyes filled with a hint of hopelessness.

At this time, Jiang Miao stood up and said, "Your Excellency, County Magistrate, I want to sue Qian Jin for framed me. Not only has it affected the reputation of Dessert House, but it has also delayed our business. When he yelled like this, everyone thought that our If there is something wrong with the snacks, who will buy them from now on?"

Jiang Miao counted on her fingers, "And the clerk in my store was so frightened by him that he fell ill, and he had to pay for the medical expenses. If he made such a fuss, no one in our store would have to make any money. He also has to pay for lost work time, which totals 200 taels of silver."

Wang Sanhu coughed, and Miss Jiang was really asking for 200 taels of silver.

Even if she sells the title deed of the Qian family's house, she still won't be able to get 200 taels of silver. Besides, the county magistrate will not agree to her unreasonable request.

Magistrate Wang thought deeply and nodded, "What Miss Jiang said makes sense. After all, we are open for business, so the loss must be compensated, but it doesn't need to be as much as 200 taels of silver. I think the compensation will be 150 taels." enough."

"..." Wang Sanhu's eyes widened. He had forgotten that the county magistrate was also a scheming master.

Shopkeeper Hua narrowed his eyes. He had long heard that behind Dessert House was County Magistrate Wang from the government office. At first, he didn't believe it, but looking at today's situation, Magistrate Wang was clearly supporting Dessert House.

"Master, do you know the relationship between Miss Jiang and Magistrate Wang? Why does Magistrate Wang protect her so much?"

Luo Tingye's answer was different from the question, "Does Shopkeeper Hua think that County Magistrate Wang is protecting her? Why do I feel that the County Magistrate is enforcing the law impartially?"

Shopkeeper Hua realized later and patted his mouth, "The county magistrate naturally enforces the law impartially, but I feel that the magistrate and Miss Jiang didn't know each other for the first time. Is there some connection between the two? "

Luo Tingye smiled lightly, "Maybe it's because the desserts in Dessert House are delicious."

Shopkeeper Hua heard Luo Tingye's perfunctory attitude and didn't ask any more questions. However, he was thinking about finding an opportunity to have a good talk with Miss Jiang, and it would be great if they could cooperate.

When Mrs. Qian heard that she would be compensated with 150 taels of silver, she was dumbfounded and screamed, "Why should I be compensated with 150 taels of silver? Why didn't you go and rob it? You are too evil-minded. No wonder no one buys your snacks. Who dares to buy something so dark?" Jiang Miao said with a smile, "I don't bother you to worry about this. I don't have to worry about selling my dim sum. Our dim sum is delicious and the ingredients are expensive. It's like going to a jewelry store. I accidentally broke someone's jade bracelet. Although you said it wasn't intentional, isn't it just a bracelet? But that jade bracelet is worth a thousand taels, do you think you should pay compensation?"

A passer-by who originally thought the compensation of 150 taels was a bit much heard this metaphor, and after thinking about it, he felt that it seemed to be the same.

Anyone who has eaten dim sum at Dessert Xuan knows that their dim sum is indeed delicious. Among them, the Snow Meiniang and Walnut Crisps are the most expensive, especially the Snow Meiniang, which comes in three different flavors, each of which is different.

Jiang Miao sighed, "Because of your making such a fuss, our ingredients cannot be used today. This is not a waste. You have to compensate for this loss."

"Even if we pay compensation, we can't pay that much." Aunt Qian shouted.

"What do you mean? Our family spends a lot of money to buy flour, eggs, various sugars, and nuts for making snacks. Pan's Grain Shop knows that although their grains are a little more expensive, they are expensive. The good thing about it is that it’s expensive, and there’s never any other stuff mixed into it.”

Jiang Miao took the opportunity to place an advertisement for Shopkeeper Pan.

The Pan family is a local family. In order to pave the way for his son to become an official, shopkeeper Pan never dares to make fake items in the store, fearing that his son's career will be affected if he does get admitted to the Jinshi in the future.

However, their rice noodles are indeed more expensive than others.

Jiang Miao listed for them everyone's wages, as well as mental damages and lost wages. The total of the mess was definitely more than 150 taels.

How could Mrs. Qian get so much money? In the blink of an eye, she looked at Mrs. Fang who was stunned at the side and said, "It was her daughter who died. Let her compensate."

"That's not okay. She is the daughter-in-law of the Qian family. The person who caused the trouble is your son, not her. Why should I ask others to compensate? If you want to compensate, your family will compensate me."

Uncle Qian, who had been silent all this time, said: "You can't say that. The daughter belongs to her, not to our Qian family. Naturally, she should be the one to compensate."

Jiang Miao cursed in her heart that she was so shameless.

"You fart." Fang Dalang shouted loudly, staring at Uncle Qian with bulging veins.

Aunt Qian continued what he said: "My old man is right. Since the person who died is her daughter, she should repay the money."

Shopkeeper Fang glanced thoughtfully at Jiang Miao next to him, and said with a blessed heart, "But my daughter is from your old Qian family. As Qian Jin said just now, even if my daughter dies, she will die in the Qian family. In this case, the money should be repaid by the Qian family."

Aunt Qian immediately changed her mind, "Not anymore. I will ask my son to divorce her right now."

Qian Jin was unwilling, "Mom, what are you talking about? How can the Fang family give me money after I divorce her?"

"Oh, son, you are stupid. If you don't divorce her, the foreign debt of 150 taels will fall on you."
