sister-in-law

Chapter 75
After Luo Shi finished speaking, he kowtowed a few times to the county magistrate, knelt on one side, and looked at Su Ruoli proudly.

Su Ruoli ignored her, just knelt there with her head down, and quietly moved her numb knees from time to time.

In this damn ancient time, she was really not used to the fact that she had to bow down when she saw a small official who was as big as a sesame seed.

If it wasn't for Luo Shi, a shameless old man, why would she have to suffer so much.It's freezing cold, and the icy floor tiles are not so easy to kneel on.

"Su Ruoli, what do you have to say?" The clear voice sounded at the right time, and there seemed to be a little bit of joking in the tone.

Su Ruoli didn't know if he heard it wrong or had hallucinations?But she didn't believe at all that the county magistrate would have any affection for her.

After all, crows in the world are generally black. How many officials are not evil these days?
She raised her head slightly, facing the direction of the magistrate, covering up her soft and pleasant voice with emotionless words, "Minister has nothing to say, I just want to ask my mother-in-law a few words!"

"Ask." The man above his head agreed so eloquently.This made Su Ruoli, who had no hope in him, suddenly wonder, and couldn't help but look up at the man.

The man's bright black eyes were like stars in the sky, staring at her for a moment, which made her feel creepy.

I can't wait to curse: I haven't seen a woman or something?Why are you staring at her like that?Act like a pervert?
In fact, she didn't know that Li Fu'an had heard of her a long time ago. The son of the lady that Su Ruoli rescued in the town last time was Li Fu'an's own nephew.

After his sister came back, although she only said that there was a goddess doctor in Qingquan Town, he didn't pay much attention to it at the time, but was curious that a little girl's family could treat such a serious illness. It's really not easy.

Later, he didn't inquire about this matter, and now that Luo Shi handed over the certificate, he immediately knew that it was the little girl who was suing.

Curious in his heart, he couldn't help but look at the little girl twice.Unexpectedly, this girl did not have the reserve of girls nowadays, not only dared to look up at him, but also dared to tell the truth that he was "good-looking", which made him narrow-minded.

He wants to see how such a brave little girl wins this round!

Su Ruoli saw that the county magistrate agreed, so she turned her head and stared at Luo Shi's eyes, her pink lips slightly curled up, showing an inscrutable smile, "Dare to ask mother-in-law, when was this house built?" of?"

"Of course it was three months ago." When Luo Shi heard that she wanted to ask her a few words alone, his heart pounded. As a person with a guilty conscience, he was naturally afraid of being asked.Unexpectedly, it was such a simple sentence, she blurted out with joy on her face!

"Then what material is used to build the house?" Su Ruoli raised her eyelids, her face was innocent like a soft deer, only the curved corner of her mouth made people feel that there was a hint of slyness in this woman's smile.

This question is still difficult for Luo Shi. She rolled her eyes and counted on her fingers, "Of course it's sand, bricks, tiles, and wood."

She was a little surprised, why did this little bastard ask all these irrelevant things today? Could it be the first time I came to such a place, and I was frightened silly?

Thinking of this, she couldn't help feeling a little complacent, feeling that she had lived in the city for a few months anyway, and she had seen a lot of the world.

Su Ruoli pursed her lips, and continued to ask, "Then who did you find to cover it?"

The first two questions can be answered by anyone, even if Roche didn't participate, he can still speak clearly.

The reason why she asked such two simple questions was to achieve the effect of boiling a frog in warm water, gradually paralyzing Luo Shi, and catching her by surprise when she was in the best mood!
When Luo Shi heard this question, she was a little dumbfounded. Well, she didn't know about it.

But with the support of Li Daguan, she smiled calmly, "You asked me this, how can I know so much as a woman? The house on the left and right was built by my son. How could I know that he Which craftsmen did you find?"

"Oh, so my mother-in-law doesn't know." Su Ruoli didn't want to call her mother-in-law, but she just reluctantly did so because she couldn't lose courtesy in front of the county magistrate.

"It's just that I know that Mr. Xianggong invited some craftsmen from Lijia Village, and it took two months to build it. I also drew pictures and gave it to the craftsmen to make the decorations inside. What about you? What power?"

Su Ruoli asked slowly, the sarcasm in his eyes barely obliterated Luo Shi.

Luo Shi felt uncomfortable all over, sweat profusely on his back, took a piece of ropa and wiped his forehead.

"Also, do you know how many taels of silver it took to build this house? Where did you buy those materials? Don't tell me that this is all done by your son! Your son is just a mountain village boy who hunts on weekdays Cutting firewood, how much silver can you save in a year?"

Su Ruoli didn't give her a chance and pressed her every step of the way.

Luo Shi's face was sallow and dripping with cold sweat. In the cold weather, a thin layer of sweat appeared on his forehead.

Before she could catch her breath, Su Ruoli turned around and kowtowed to the county magistrate, and quickly said, "Master Qingtian, this house was built with the money I earned from practicing medicine. My husband and I are one body. Naturally, the distinction is not so clear. At that time, the mother-in-law left the whole family and went out to live for three months before coming back. The father-in-law who was paralyzed at home was left unattended, and the young brother-in-law and sister-in-law didn’t care, but now they want to occupy the property. Check, give the little girl justice!"

The words are sonorous and powerful, and they are so loud that they are shocking!

At this time, the outside was crowded with people who came to watch the fun, and they all came to see something new. This case of mother-in-law suing daughter-in-law caused a sensation in the entire county.

After hearing Su Ruoli's questioning inside, those people chattered and said everything.

Luo Shi's eyes dodged and he didn't dare to meet the crowd, for fear that they would scold her.

But since she is going all out to sue Su Ruoli, she still has a diamond in her heart, she still understands the so-called loser but not loser.

Gritting her teeth, she managed to calm down, stretched out her hand to point at Su Ruoli, and shouted, "Master Qingtian, don't be fooled by her one-sided words, this little hoof is used to this kind of thing, and he is so eloquent. Don't trust her!"

She is used to scolding on weekdays, and she opened her mouth as a "little hoof" in the eyes of everyone, so she naturally lost her status.

In the hall, Li Fu'an slapped the gavel and shouted loudly, "This is a court, so stop talking nonsense!"

Luo Shi was so frightened that his arrogance suddenly shrank a bit, and he stammered, shaking his fingers, "My... my lord, the women have witnesses!"

"Bring witnesses!" With a loud shout, a man in gray and long gown ran in, but it was Wang Wenru.

Su Ruoli narrowed her eyes, a little surprised: Why does this guy still want to harm her?Luo Shi is an idiot, her daughter has slept with the school, Gu Zhang might be tortured in the army, but she and Wang Wenru have become the same.

What a bitch, it's really embarrassing!

Curving his lips sarcastically, Su Ruoli listened calmly.

Hearing Wang Wenru salute the county magistrate like a dog bumping his ass, pointing to Su Ruoli who was kneeling beside him, he yelled fiercely, "Master Qingtian, this is the little girl, she is really notorious in the village, she abuses the mother-in-law , beating and scolding my sister-in-law, and not serving my father-in-law. Da Lang of the Gu family joined the army, but this little girl actually occupied Da Lang's house and refused to let her mother-in-law live in. The conscience of heaven and earth, this little girl is so young, but her heart is vicious It's ruthless!"

He beat his chest in grief, as if he really hated seeing such wicked people.

Su Ruoli sneered, today I really saw what it means to open your eyes and tell nonsense, it turned out to be Wang Wenru.

"Gujia Village Zheng, is the testimony you gave true? Do you dare to testify?" There was a hint of oppression in the clear voice, and the overwhelming push came over.

Wang Wenru hesitated for a moment, and quickly replied cheerfully: "Back to the elder, the young ones dare, very dare! This kind of wicked person should be eliminated by everyone and then quickly!"

He stepped forward happily, and was about to stretch out his hand to sign the document in the master's hand, when he suddenly heard a low voice from behind: "Wait a minute, your testimony is beyond count."

While everyone was in a daze, they saw a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy walking in from outside, wearing a sapphire blue long cotton robe and a natural color belt around his waist.He also held two young children in his hands, and walked in with big strides.

Immediately, a yamen servant stepped forward to stop him, "Hey, boy, the magistrate of the county is trying the case, why did you break in?"

Li Fu'an saw that this boy was handsome and upright, he couldn't help but feel good about him, he waved his hand, and let someone lead him up.

Su Ruoli already knew who was coming when he heard that sentence, and he didn't want to involve him, but he still came anyway.Not only came, but also came with younger brothers and sisters.

She really didn't know how to repay this kindness.

Gu Mo led his younger siblings to salute the magistrate respectfully, and then slowly said: "Cao Min is the second son of the plaintiff Luo Shi, and the second uncle of the defendant Su Shi!"

Everyone has been blindsided for a long time, and they really don't understand how this family is so complicated.

Li Fu'an only responded and asked him to continue talking.

Gu Mo didn't even look at Luo Shi, and said directly: "Caomin's sister-in-law has a wonderful medical skill of rejuvenation. She saved the lives of several children in Gujia Village, and Caomin's younger siblings were also saved by her sister-in-law."

After a pause, he continued: "Sister-in-law worked hard day and night, saved up money and built a tile-roofed house, and our brothers, sisters and father all moved in. Caomin's mother left home for three months, no matter what father did. And we brothers and sisters. We didn’t come back until the end of the new year, and we picked and picked and found fault with my sister-in-law all day long. This got worse, and my sister-in-law was sued in court. Caomin was so ashamed, and came here to testify for my sister-in-law!”

After he finished speaking in one breath, he kowtowed and knelt down peacefully to one side.
