Chapter 785
Everyone also looked at the news in the courtroom to see who would take the blame this time.Whether it's the money steward or someone else, they come out to take the blame, or come out to buy people, they are all ordered by the master, and they are doing things for the master. Now that something happens, they will take the blame for the servant.

Qian Changdong knew that Steward Qian would never plead guilty. If he pleaded guilty, then Mo Heng would attack his master next.The key to this matter lies in Pei Wenli. As long as Mrs. Chen committed suicide, even if Steward Qian ordered people to follow him, he would not silence him!

Steward Qian looked at his eyes, and shouted that Mrs. Chen either committed suicide or was slandered by others to slander the master and the young lady.

Chen Shi and Pei Wenli had just walked a short distance, and it was too cold in winter, so they settled in an inn in a town.It is said that she committed suicide because the doors and windows in the house were locked, and Mrs. Chen hanged herself.

The local government helped to investigate, and it was said that Mrs. Chen had been hanged, because during the day, an old man knocked off her hat, revealing that she had only a few sparse and fluffy hairs left. Clothes of ordinary people, my aunt's hair is shaved clean, unlike her, there are still a few sparse strands. This is obviously suffering from an evil disease, so I discussed it with others.Then everyone inside and outside the inn knew about it, and the proprietress refused to let them stay in the inn.Pei Wenli revealed his fame as a public servant, saying that he took his mother to see a doctor in the capital, and after begging for a while, he stayed.

But the news of the ghost's head shaving spread far, and someone revealed the identity of Mrs. Chen that night. He was shaved by the ghost, and the proprietress kicked him out again. There was nowhere to go at night, and it was freezing cold. Pei Wenli had three times more Silver, this is considered as a promise to let them stay for one night.

After checking, the local government said that the Chen family could not bear the humiliation and hanged himself.No one can cure ghosts to shave their heads, and it is useless to go to the capital.

Pei Wenli couldn't bear the resentment, so he decided that someone killed Mrs. Chen to silence her.His mother will never commit suicide!The one who was poisonous and dumb before must have been from the Qian family!

Steward Qian refused to plead guilty, so he was sent to prison and will be tried again later.

Qian Changdong quickly reached an agreement with Pei Wenli, and he could contribute money to support Pei Wenli.

That night, Feng Wei received a contract document. Pei Wenli agreed to make an agreement with Qian Changdong, but in order to keep the other party's handle, he signed a contract document.Pei Wenli admitted that the Chen family committed suicide, and Qian Changdong gave Pei Wenli 3000 taels of silver, and no longer pursue the crime.Make a document to prevent one party from regretting in the end, and each seizes its own handle.If the matter is exposed, Qian Changdong will not be able to escape the charge of buying a murderer, and Pei Wenli will not be able to escape the charge of selling his mother for money.

Mo Heng had read the contract document, and he would not go to court the next day, "Things have turned around, so what's the use of me going!?"

The two yamen servants didn't invite anyone, so when they returned to the yamen, they returned his words intact.

Jiang Benxin understood what was going on, but the people at the gate who came to hear the trial didn't quite understand what was going on.After listening for a long time, after interrogation and re-examination, Mrs. Chen committed suicide. Steward Qian called him to send someone there, but it was to protect Mrs. Chen and prevent others who killed Mrs. Chen from blaming them. Because at this time, the Chen family must not die.Once she died, she would blame them for the crime.

But he didn't dare to say that the two murderers were brought by Mo Heng to slander them, he only said that the price was not negotiated, and the two sides had a conflict.Steward Qian also admitted to beating Fang Liuming, but Fang Liuming was not disabled and had already been an official in high school, so he failed and was willing to pay 50 taels of silver.

When the two murderers heard this, they didn't need to bear a murder charge, even if the sentence was commuted, the lightest death would be exile.Now they only need to make a few boards, and of course they will respond immediately.

The case was quickly concluded, and Steward Qian paid [-] bills for the seriousness of the murder and released him.

The two criminals were released with thirty boards each.

Only then did everyone understand that Mo Heng didn't want to come again, so what happened was the reversal of what he said.The two of them were obviously planning to use money for personal gain.Someone contemptuously called Pei Wenli unfilial, and even helped the murderer lie when his own mother was killed.Could it be for a sum of money they gave! ?No matter how good Mrs. Chen is, she is also Pei Wenli's own mother!It's so heartless!

Pei Wenli took Chen's body and returned home with the old man Zhu. Pei Zongli bought a coffin and shroud for Chen, and stayed at home to wait for Pei Houli, Pei Wenbo, and Kong.

The villagers kept talking about it, saying that although the Chen family was mean and evil, his death was really undeserved.He looked at Pei Wenli with contempt and fear.You can even sell your own mother who was killed, what else can't you do?
Old Fang Xiucai and Fang Li rushed to the county seat and received 50 taels of silver as compensation.

Although the family has a lot of income now, 50 taels of silver is not a small amount. Fang Li looked at his father holding the silver bag from time to time.

Elder Fang discussed with Pei Qin and Mo Heng, "Da Lang was fine at the time, so he didn't mention any skin injuries. We don't want this money, so let's pay it to Li Baoxiang's family!"

Before Pei Qin could speak, Fang Li stood up, "Why!? This is compensation for our family, Da Lang, why should it be given to Li Baoxiang's family!? Dad, are you confused!? "

Fang Lao Xiucai looked at him and his face darkened.

Fang Li hastily corrected his words, "No...I mean, Dad is thinking about it! The 50 taels of silver is obviously for compensation to our family. He Li Baoxiang broke his arm. Didn't we heal him? We don't even know how to give them supplements. How much did you buy, and even recognized him as a godson, and became a god-in-law with our family, and wanted to give them the 50 taels again, they thought it was a good idea!"

"You see 50 taels of silver in your eyes? If I give you 500 taels, 5000 taels, will you kill your parents!?" Fang Laoxiu scolded angrily.

"That's impossible! This is not the same thing at all!" Fang Li said hastily.

"I don't understand shit!" Old Xiucai Fang cursed angrily, the money was determined to be given to Li Baoxiang's family, not only to give it, but also to give it with great fanfare.

Fang Li was still dissatisfied and muttered, "It's not that they are doing some big business, and they will give 50 taels of silver to others. How many sour bamboo shoots and sweet potato powder can be sold to earn so much."

"When you become the family, our family will be finished!" Fang Laoxiu has already decided that in the future, Fang Li will only be in charge of small matters, and he must not be in charge of decision-making, let alone be in charge of the family.

Although Pei Qin didn't want to see Li Baoxiang's family, he couldn't keep the money by himself. Li Baoxiang and Fang Liuming were beaten together, and there was a lot of trouble at that time when he broke his arm and confessed to his relatives. Since the government compensated the money, it should be given to Li Baoxiang's family. go.

Pei Qian also felt in her heart that Li Baoxiang's family was not worthy at all. Li Baoxiang's arm was broken because he didn't run away.

At this time, the Li family was already preparing for a happy event. After Li Baoxiang and Yu Qingxiu, the daughter of the Yu family, got married, they immediately set a date for their marriage. We got married a year ago, so that Li Baoxiang could concentrate on next year's scientific research, and have someone to take care of him during the New Year. There are also lively new daughter-in-laws.

The 50 taels of silver were sent to Li Baoxiang's home with great fanfare. Mrs. Li and old man Li were very happy about this windfall.

The villagers also said that the Fang family was a noble and honest one, Mo Heng and Pei Qin must have won the 50 taels of silver from the government, and the money for compensation was also paid to the Fang family for Fang Liming, but they didn't want one tael, and gave it all to Li Baoxiang.It's really lucky for the Li family to climb into this door of marriage!
Mrs. Li was very happy at first, 50 taels of silver is not easy to earn!But after hearing how many people in Fang's family were being praised outside, how lucky their family was to be married, they poured cold water on them and became angry, "If my son hadn't broken his arm because of Fang Liuming, I’ve passed the exam a long time ago! Why don’t they say that my son didn’t get any fame and even divorced his wife!? They’ve let them lose all their good words!”

The old man Li advised her not to say outside, "This year, when my son gets married, I will ask for advice and let them help me walk. The most important thing is to get Baoxiang to pass the exam next year!"

Mrs. Li was just annoyed and unhappy, "If they were willing to help, Baoxiang would have already passed the exam!"

"It's easy to talk about it this year! My son is getting married soon, so don't bother!" Old man Li was also annoyed, but he could only curse inwardly if he didn't help.

Mrs. Li got angry, and knew that anger would not work, so she waited for Yu Qingxiu to come in, and asked her to work hard at her natal family. After all, Mrs. Yu is not her own aunt, but also her cousin. Damn it.

Pei Qin's body was getting heavier and heavier, Li Baoxiang got married, and it was still snowing, so he didn't go, and only asked Zhang Gengshan as the steward to give a congratulatory gift.

Mrs. Li was even more dissatisfied, she went to invite her herself, and pointed to Pei Qin to come over to support the situation, but none of them came over, and only sent a servant!The gift given was far worse than Fang Fang's wedding!
She didn't want to think about it, Li Baoxiang just recognized Fang Li and Yu Shi as godfathers, not to mention Pei Qin's sister and brother, Fang Fu has nothing to do with it, but luckily he beat Pei Qian to death, Pei Qin would treat them with respect! ?
After they got married, Mrs. Li asked Li Baoxiang and Yu Qingxiu to go to various houses to visit relatives and recognize their relatives. Among them, Liuerxiang was not missing.

Yu Qingxiu dressed up and changed her clothes into a bright red embroidered satin jacket. She was very festively dressed, wearing a little golden hairpin and a silver step, which also added extravagance. She opened her mouth with a smile on her face and called Cousin Pei Qin, "I and Cousin Fang is a cousin, so she will be called Mrs. Cousin along with Cousin Fang!"

Pei Qin laughed and asked them to sit down.

Pei Qian looked at them coldly, unwilling to exchange pleasantries with them, if she wasn't afraid that her elder sister would have another seizure and they would cry and talk about her, she wouldn't be here to stare at her no matter what.

He was not familiar with him at first, but after exchanging pleasantries, he became a little cold.

Yu Qingxiu was a little embarrassed, thinking that her mother taught her to talk about her baby. No one doesn't like to hear people praise their baby, so she started talking around Jiu'er, "...all said she looks like her cousin, and when she grows up It’s sure to amaze everyone!”

Pei Qin looked at the roof, and praised the blind man again.

Yu Qingxiu had never met Mo Heng, Fang Fang was married to female relatives, so she only went to her aunt's house that time.Seeing that Jiu'er is really exquisite and beautiful, I can't help but think how handsome Mo Heng must be, who would be praised when people mention it, and gave birth to a daughter with such a symbol.

Li Baoxiang is also waiting for Mo Heng to come back. Earlier Mo Heng said that he was impatient and would fail the exam for another year. He was angry at first, but after thinking about it, he was indeed a little anxious. He failed the exam every year and wanted to marry Pei Qian He didn't know how to take advantage of the situation, so he was knowledgeable, but he didn't settle down, so he failed the exam.This time, also taking the opportunity, I will definitely ask Mo Heng for some advice.

At this time, Mo Heng was stopped by Li Baolian on the road.

She went out to wander, and the roadside was icy, and the cool shade was not open, so she slipped and fell.Seeing Mo Heng coming from the workshop, she didn't get up at all, and wept softly while covering her feet by the side of the road.When Mo Heng came over, Li Hua begged him to help her up.

People with the surname Sun live in the west half of the village, and Zhang Shiqian's family lives in the east.She even ran to Xiban Village and fell on his way back to the workshop.Mo Heng only glanced coldly, and walked straight over.

"Mr. Mo! Mr. Mo, please save me! I've been falling for a long time!" Li Baolian cried and begged.

Mo Heng went home directly.

Li Baolian cried in a low voice unwillingly, even if she was to be his concubine, she would not want to follow Zhang Shiqian!

Yu Qingxiu gasped when she saw Mo Heng's eyes wide open, she only heard what people said, but she didn't expect Pei Qin's husband to be so handsome.

Li Baoxiang hurriedly got up to salute, "... In the future, our two families will get closer, so I should change my name to my cousin!" He joked with a smile.

Mo Heng said indifferently, "On the way back, I saw your sister sitting on the ground and stopping me to help her. You should go and help her up!"

Li Baoxiang's smile suddenly froze on his face. Seeing his indifferent expression, and thinking of his sister, his face suddenly burned, and he gritted his teeth in embarrassment.

Pei Qin raised her eyebrows and sat on the ground, didn't she fall into her arms?
Mo Heng gave her a dark look.

Pei Qin rubbed her nose and took a drink from the teacup beside her.

Pei Qian said in a strange tone, "Li Baolian couldn't get up sitting on the ground, let alone broke her leg, you brothers and sisters-in-law, you better go and have a look as soon as possible!"

Yu Qingxiu didn't expect that she would be so ashamed when she saw Mo Heng for the first time. Li Baolian often lived in her natal family. After she got married, she just returned to Zhang's house, but she didn't want to make this happen.Sitting on the ground blocking the way for Mo Heng to help her, isn't that... she is not a widow, how can she not obey women's ways!

Li Baoxiang felt a great humiliation, but he could only bow his hands, let the panic go, and went out to see Li Baolian.

Yu Qingxiu naturally stayed with him.

The faces of the two of them were ugly, Li Baolian had already got up by herself, and walked back wiping her tears sadly, Li Baoxiang immediately turned gloomy and glared at her angrily.Every time he was humiliated, it was mostly because of the stupid things she did!This time, I originally took the opportunity to recognize relatives, and Mo Heng couldn't refuse to help him, but I didn't want her to do such an indecent thing to hurt him at this critical moment!

Seeing them, Li Baolian's face froze, tears came out suddenly, and she also felt resentful towards his elder brother in her heart, "If it weren't for you, he wouldn't hate me so much!" It wasn't because he was annoyed by something about her brother and mother How could Mr. Mo ignore her! ?
Seeing that she still complained about him, Li Baoxiang turned blue.

Yu Qingxiu also saw Li Baolian for the first time, looking at her with surprise in her eyes.She is already married, even the Zhang Shiqian who married, with her previous reputation, can get by, don't you feel a little ashamed to block the way and let Mo Heng help her?

Li Baoxiang was already too lazy to talk to her, so he came over and gritted his teeth in a low voice, "If you shamelessly ruin my affairs again, you will have no family in the future!"

"I just want to say, why are you so fierce? If it weren't for you, how would I know Zhao Junchao, Zhang Shiqian, and be murdered all my life!?" Li Baolian accused him and began to cry.

Li Baoxiang was so angry that his seven orifices were filled with smoke, and he warned her again, then flung his sleeves and left.

Yu Qingxiu looked at Li Baolian. When she first got married, she saw this sister-in-law's melancholy and self-pitying look. She thought that a scholar's daughter would hurt her spring and autumn, but she... took another look and reminded her , "Look back and say that you twisted your waist and didn't stand up for a while." Quickly followed Li Baoxiang.

When they returned to Liu'er Lane, Yu Qingxiu explained awkwardly, "The ground over there was slippery, Bao Lian fell and twisted her waist, and she didn't stand up for a while." Said that Mo Heng had misunderstood.Otherwise, it would be difficult for them to talk to each other again.

Li Baoxiang also bowed his hands, saying that Li Baolian was too reckless, didn't go out often, and rarely made friends with anyone. Seeing that Mo Heng knew each other, he asked for help.Round up the words.

Mo Heng only responded with a few words, but didn't say any more.

After eating, when Li Baoxiang asked the teacher again, he lacked confidence.

Mo Heng pointed out several deficiencies in the theory to him, and asked him to read more books and practice the theory that he had written before with great concentration.

Li Baoxiang felt that there was nothing to teach him at all. Mo Heng always looked down on him and was unwilling to teach him more.Pei Wendong is Pei Qin's younger brother, let alone that Zhao Yong is just a young master from someone else's family, and he was taught to become a young scholar.If he doesn't take the exam, he will get older and older, and the gap with Fang Liuming will be even further!
When I got home, I didn't listen to Mo Heng's concentrating on practicing, and complained to Mrs. Li that Li Baolian was going to harm him again, and asked Mrs. Li to control Li Baolian, "She is already married to Zhang Shiqian, and going to Mo Heng at this time will only embarrass me! If it's because of her that she angers Pei Qin and trips me up in the exam, I'll never pass the exam in my life!"

Mrs. Li's face turned dark and red, red and green again, and she also scolded Li Baolian for causing trouble at this time.

Yu Qingxiu listened in the room, but didn't dare to go out, for fear that her in-laws would feel embarrassed.But they still heard what they said.She thought, even before, Li Baolian looked rather pitiful to me at first, but after watching it a few times, she was much worse than Pei Qin.Mo Heng has grown into such a fairy again, so he won't fall in love with her either! ?
Li Baolian began to dislike and look down upon her, but Zhang Shiqian's family members still gave in to her, feeling that she was superior, and they all respected her and pampered her.But as time went by, she continued to do it.The guilt of being aborted was also worn away by her little by little.That's why Zhang Shiqian pampered and pampered her.

Pei Qian went out to the workshop with her elder sister and brother-in-law before, and she also met Li Baolian, "I just never thought that it would be a shame to be married! Shameless!" Pei Qin kept a close eye on Mo Heng, "Those people all confirmed their pregnancy Hu Meizi took advantage of the loophole and climbed into the bed! If you let someone climb into the elder brother-in-law's bed, just wait and cry!"

Pei Qin transferred the words to Mo Heng, "If you let someone climb into your bed, just wait and cry!"

Mo Heng was stunned for a moment, then looked up at her, his handsome face darkened, "Only you dare to climb on my bed, who else would dare?"

"I was dragged there by you!" Pei Qin said with a dark face.

"Yeah. You also picked up my clothes." Mo Heng nodded.

Comparing dirt, she is no match for this beast.Pei Qin said angrily, "I'm hungry!" and ordered him to get something to eat.

Mo Heng curled the corners of his mouth, and ordered Zhang Gengshan outside to go to the kitchen and bring the stewed fish soup.

Soon Zhang Gengshan brought two bowls of fish soup, paired with two plates of steamed dumplings and fish balls, and brought them over.

In the front yard, Pei Qian and Jiu'er's aunt and nephew had already eaten, and they led her out to watch the fun.

Pei Houli, Pei Wenbo, and Kong Shi came back with their daughter Pei Qingya.

It has been more than a month since the notification of the news and their return. It is absolutely impossible to say that they did not delay.And Pei Wenli didn't come back for the funeral.

Time dragged on for too long, and even in winter, Chen's corpse also stinks.

Mrs. Zhu disliked it so much that she hurriedly buried her when she was sent back.

As for Chen's death, the one who was most unwilling to be unwilling was Pei Wenbo.He is already seventeen, and he will be eighteen after the Chinese New Year. After three more years of filial piety, how old is he! ?Besides, he has already met a lady in the capital. After three years of filial piety, she has already married and had children!
Pei Houli also cried very sadly, but he cried that his son's future was ruined again, and his youngest son's marriage was delayed, this filial piety must be kept in the past.As for Mrs. Chen's death, he had just felt uncomfortable for a few days before feeling relieved.You don't have to look at Chen's black, ugly and mean face anymore, and control him everywhere!

Chen's family was buried soon, and Lao Pei's family didn't have any big banquet guests, and there weren't many people who wanted to have a banquet, so it was over after setting up a few tables.

Kong returned to this family again, without the oppressive mother-in-law above her, but she knew that soon Pei Houli should find a step-mother-in-law, and still oppress her.Mrs. Zhu also found Dafang even more displeased, and started ordering her around.She knew the strangeness of Chen's death, and Pei Wenli didn't pursue it, so she discussed with Qian Wanxiu, "My mother-in-law is gone, and I can't take care of the whole family by myself. Grandpa and grandma are getting old, second aunt and second Uncle isn't at home often, why don't you buy two wives to take care of you?"

"My mother-in-law has bad hands and feet, why don't you buy two maids?" Qian Wanxiu looked at her with ridicule flashing in her eyes.I thought I had something to do with her, so I wanted to take advantage of her! ?Just relying on her, Kong, is not enough!
Kong was short of breath for a while, "The little maid is ignorant and doesn't work hard. The maid is sensible and diligent. Even though her hands and feet are not as agile as the little maid, she is better at doing things calmly. My mother-in-law just left. If I buy a maid and come back , they are ignorant, don't they gossip?"

Thinking of the 3000 taels of silver, Qian Wanxiu nodded, "That's true! You have made a decision, and I can't interfere. The houses around are big, and we don't live there often. Buying two wives is enough to live in! "She has built a house, bought clothes all year round, and wants her to sell everything! ?
It took a while for Kong to nod his head, agreed, and went to talk to Pei Wenli about buying a wife.

All the money in the family's private house is with him now, and he took ten taels of silver to her and asked her to look at it and buy it.

Kong picked two older ones and bought them back. They arranged to live in a low room in the backyard, where they cooked and did housework.

The village saw that they had just buried Mrs. Chen, and they bought servants to come back to take care of them. They immediately lived extravagantly, and the family stopped working, and ordered the subordinates to point and point, saying that Pei Wenli got a lot of money.

After hearing this, Mrs. Zhu was also thinking about it, and asked Pei Wenli in private how much money he got.

Pei Wenli only said that it was a little dowry from the Chen family. As for other money, there were only dozens of taels of money from the Qian family for the funeral expenses, which was almost enough.He planned to use the money to buy a few books, pens, inks, papers and inkstones, to keep his filial piety at home, to devote himself to research, and to make a reliable marriage for Pei Wenbo.

Zhu's heart was like a cat scratching, but she couldn't ask.When I asked Qian Wanxiu, she also said that it was only a few tens of taels of silver for the funeral expenses, nothing else.Otherwise, Steward Qian won't be able to run away and pay for murder, and that little bitch Pei Qin will never let her father go!
Every household is starting to prepare for the New Year.

Pei Wendong came back with a letter, saying that he couldn't make it back years ago, and that he and Xiao Yong and Chang Yonglin were out for the New Year, and he brought something home.Everyone has them, and Jiu'er has them all, for food and play.

Dim sum is the most in it, two big boxes of abalone with bones, two big boxes of durian crisps.

Durian crisps are not uncommon. Bone-in abalone conch is known as the holy product of dim sum. It is hard to buy with money. It is a treasure that is very popular among the noble families.

That's what Pei Qin ate, she had enough cream and cheese.She thought the durian crisps were pretty good, so she even ate a few pieces.

Both Pei Qian and Jiu'er liked it, especially Jiu'er. She killed one of the two big boxes by herself.

"Sister!?" Pei Qian looked at the empty box and called Pei Qin.

Seeing her eyes, the corners of Pei Qin's mouth twitched slightly, "I can't do it!"

Pei Qian looked at her with a look of 'how is she a mother', "Jiu'er likes to eat it!" Then she turned to Jiu'er and said, "Your mother can make abalone with bones."

"Mother, do it!" Jiu'er immediately said.

"Mother won't!" Pei Qin's face darkened.

"Nianghui!" Jiu'er firmly believed.

"Mom won't! Your aunt will!" Pei Qin told her seriously.

Jiu'er immediately turned to Pei Qian, "Auntie~"

Pei Qian gave her elder sister a hard look.

Pei Qin smiled, "I'll go milk the goat with you!"

The three of them packed up and were about to go out when Zhang Gengshan came over with a strange expression, "Master Zhang came outside the door..."

 "The son of the phoenix masking makeup is going to get married" He Lanqing'er

  Who is Feng Ruge?The "son" of the king of Zhennan who has disguised himself as a man for twelve years in Beili, won the court, entered the red building, practiced Tai Chi, and played ambiguously. He is the number one minister of Beili.It's not a problem to call the emperor brothers and sisters, it's not a problem to be ambiguous with the princess, and it's not a problem to flirt with the queen mother.Live recklessly and freely, live a happy life, and see that he is about to become the CEO (promoted to the prime minister), marry Bai Fumei (marry the princess), and reach the pinnacle of life.

  Unfortunately, this was all before meeting him.

  Ever since she accidentally offended that man named Rong Jincheng, Feng Ruge started to run wildly on the Kangzhuang Avenue, never to return!
