Chapter 197 Go to Court

The county magistrate's yamen is a local public security yamen under the jurisdiction of the county seat, which can manage the daily affairs of hundreds of miles around.

Therefore, the common people in the jurisdiction have a trivial matter. As long as you want, you can go to the county magistrate's office to register and queue up, waiting to go to court and let the county magistrate make decisions for you.

Of course, if you want to report to the official about a major incident, you have to beat the drums. There is an essential difference between beating the drums and complaining about grievances and ordinary civil disputes.

However, for many years, Wenjiaji Town and several nearby villages have a simple and honest folk style and a prosperous literary style. There have never been any earth-shattering major cases, and most of them are daily disputes and verbal disputes.

Therefore, to be an official here, most of them are Qingliu who can cultivate their morality, either dormant and ready to go, or return to their hometown for the elderly.

And the current county magistrate is dormant and waiting to be released.He was Fang Zhiyi's classmate at the county school back then. Later, Fang Zhiyi concentrated on doing business and neglected studying, but he was admitted to Juren.

It was only later that he failed in the general examination, but he made meritorious deeds, and was transferred by Qizhou Chengshou to Wenjiaji Town, where he was in charge of the county magistrate's office.He is honest and kind, and knows how to be flexible. He has indeed solved a lot of troublesome things for the local people, and has an excellent reputation in the local area.

The last time Fang Xiaofu heard Fang Zizhan talk about the deeds of the county magistrate because of the case of the second aunt's family.Hearing Fang Zizhan's respect for the magistrate, she complained in her heart.

It takes absolute patience and kindness to be able to deal with that kind of triviality every day.This grown-up is indeed a good-natured man.

Think about it, if a parental official is not a good official, how can ordinary people report to the official even about trivial matters such as sesame seeds and mung beans?
Because in the hearts of the common people, this county magistrate is able to uphold justice, and they trust him so they go to him.If they can't gain their trust, why are they making trouble for themselves?

Although it is true that you have to pay hard money for moving on a business trip, and you have to pay the registration fee for reporting to the official, but the amount is not high, and most people can afford it.

But Fang Xiaofu, who is from the modern age, can completely understand it.Even in modern times, you have to pay a fee to apply for a certificate.

What's more, in this kind of small place, Qingshui Yamen, the county magistrate doesn't have to fish for it himself, but the old and the young also have to eat, right?So she totally understands.

And her understanding of the county magistrate also made her dare to bring the matter of the Sun family to court, not for revenge on the Sun family, but for Fang Zizhan's reputation.

Fang Zizhan is a young scholar with a bright future, and he must not be stained with this kind of stain.

The people involved in the incident and the people watching the excitement were very spectacular walking on the street, and it also attracted more people from far away who came here curiously, not knowing what happened.

The crowd at the back asked the crowd in front, and only then did they know that something happened to the Sun family, and they were about to go to court.They were immediately excited, and no matter what they were doing, they all followed.

It is a big deal to go to court overnight, and they have to go to the trial.

Seeing this battle, Master Sun began to regret it.What's the point of fighting, even if they win the lawsuit, so what?It still lost the face of the Sun family.

It's fine if the Fang family admits Yuejiao's identity, but if they don't...how can Yuejiao marry?
Thinking of this, his heart felt like oil was frying, and he was extremely anxious.And Mrs. Sun was still whimpering, which made him very upset for the first time.

At the beginning, the madam yelled and came to him, saying that she had seen the Fang family's Saburo belittle their daughter, and told him to go quickly.In a fit of anger, he grabbed Fang Zhicheng's arm and went over to reason together.

When they arrived, in the guest room, only Yuejiao, who was sitting on the bed, was curled up and crying non-stop. Fang Zizhan stood in the room and was escorted by two young men, pleading anxiously.

His son Sun Dingwei stepped forward and punched Fang Zizhan twice, forcing him to tell the truth, but Fang Zizhan was not afraid at all, insisting that he hadn't, he hadn't done it at all.

But Yuejiao was crying and trembling, how could he believe Fang Zizhan's explanation?Then there was his wife crying and howling, asking the Fang family to be responsible, and asking Fang Zizhan to marry Yuejiao right away.

Marrying Yuejiao to Fang Zizhan was originally a promise they had made before, but they just advanced the plan, so no one would object to this result, so it was settled.

Unexpectedly, Fang Zizhan insisted on not agreeing, which led to subsequent conflicts and incidents.

Thinking about it now, the original decision was still too hasty.Why did he listen to his wife and turn Yuejiao's wedding ceremony into a wedding ceremony?
If the marriage is settled with the in-laws first, and then father is asked to make an appointment with Mr. Fang for an interview, this matter is a certainty, and it is impossible for the situation to be questioned tonight.

Although Fang Zizhan is stubborn, although his wife is fierce and barbaric, with the elders in his family suppressing him, what else can they stir up?
In the end, it was the Sun family who didn't hold their breath, and drove Fang Zizhan into a rut, turned rational into unreasonable, and made people riot.It's okay if a good bridal chamber is destroyed.

"Okay, don't cry!" The more Master Sun thought about it, the more depressed he became, and there was a buzzing sound in his ears again, just like summer mosquitoes, which couldn't be wiped away, so he couldn't help but sip.

The buzzing sound stopped abruptly, but it was only quiet for a moment, and then immediately turned into a loud howling sound.Mrs. Sun was sad, but she was so wronged by the yelling that she immediately scolded Master Sun.

"My lord, you're annoying, don't you think I'm not annoying? Our daughter is being bullied! We haven't reported to the police yet, but instead we've become defendants. Is there any reason for this?"

Her voice was sharp and hoarse, and she sounded a little embarrassed.Although I adjusted my clothes when I went out, but my hair was messed up and I didn't have time to tidy it up. Walking on the road now, how can I still look like a rich lady?

Master Sun gave her an annoyed look, and complained in a low voice: "If you hadn't made a fuss and forced the Fang family to pay homage tonight, things wouldn't have turned around so badly."

It was because Fang Zizhan refused to worship and admit his mistakes that he was locked up in the woodshed and had the opportunity to commit suicide.Only then will the Fang family get the handle to sue the Sun family in court.

"Are you blaming me now? Which one of today's events did I not discuss with you? Are you blaming me now?"

Mrs. Sun felt so depressed when she heard this, her pale face turned red with anger, her almond eyes were wide open, and there was something strange in the mixed light of the torches and lanterns held up high.

"Sigh. Ma'am, now is not the time to argue." Master Sun endured it, calmed down, and whispered in Madam Sun's ear.Mrs. Sun became quiet after hearing this.

Then Mrs. Sun whispered to her son again.

The Fang family walked in front with the narrow couch as the core, so they did not notice that the Sun family was quietly exchanging opinions.

Fang Xiaofu was also busy talking in a low voice about the whole process of tonight with his eldest brother, Ziwei, and the group of little brothers.The eldest brother came later, and Ziwei and the others were in charge of communication tasks, so many things behind were not very clear.
