Queen of Nongmen: Hexagrams determine the universe

Chapter 106
When Ye Jigang heard this, he subconsciously wanted to hide.

But then he thought again, what are you afraid of?
Maybe they haven't drunk the water in the water tank yet, they came to Ye's old house today, they have other things to talk about.

Feeling uneasy, Ye Jigang pushed open the door nervously, and put on a calm look.

Girl Xue went into the house and found some long benches, placed them in the yard, and was the first to sit down.

"You dare to sit while the elders are still standing? There are no rules!" Mr. Ye said displeasedly.

Xue girl stood up obediently, but said back a little unwillingly: "If you poison the elders, wouldn't it be even more unruly?"

When Ye Jigang, who had just left the room, heard this, his eyelids trembled and his hands trembled.

Girl Xue took a look at Ye Jigang, saw that his eyelids were drooping, and decided that he was guilty, so she gave him a hard look, hating and fearing him at the same time.

"Snow girl! Who taught you to say such rebellious words? Is it your father? Or your mother! You call them back for me, kneel in the ancestral hall of the clan, and recite the ancestor's instruction!" Mr. Ye said sternly.

"Grandpa, it was Ye Jigang who taught her to say such things. Ye Jigang intended to poison the fourth uncle. Does this count as poisoning the elders?" Ye Qiongdan said word by word with cold eyes, "He not only intended to poison the fourth uncle, he He also intends to poison the second and third cousins. Grandpa, what do you think of this matter?"

"That's impossible!" Old Man Ye shook his head without thinking.

Ye Jigang also pretended to be honest and remained silent.

Ye Qiongdan explained the ins and outs of the matter, and finally said: "Ye Jigang, if you refuse to admit it, I will call Xue Goudan over and let you confront him face to face!"

"Girl Dan, you are also a scholar who knows a few words, not an ignorant country girl. You should know that I am also a scholar. I know that killing people is against the law. I will not do such a thing to destroy myself. future." Ye Jigang said.

"Really? Your rhetoric can coax others, but it can't coax me. If we all die today, there will be no evidence of death, and Xue Goudan will also bring this secret into the grave because of fear. Ye Jigang , if you firmly deny it, I will go to the county government to report the case, and let experienced arresters and arresters come over to investigate the case, and let them also come to see your clumsy trick full of flaws, so as to judge whether the county government can Convict you!"

Ye Jigang's eyes finally became flustered.

"Ah Gang! Did you do it!" Seeing his expression, Mr. Ye couldn't understand it?

"Grandpa, I, I was forced," he said dejectedly and resentfully, "I was forced! It's the second and third bedrooms who bully people too much!"

"Are we pushing people too far? It's always been your own fault! When the family was separated, our second and third bedrooms said that we would not be in the light of the big house from now on, and we didn't let you spit out the money that had swallowed us. , Does it make you feel that we are weak and can be bullied?" Ye Qiongdan narrowed his eyes, "If there is no little black chicken that was poisoned to death today, we might all die in the house. This attempted poisoning case , we have all the witnesses and physical evidence, and the evidence is as solid as a mountain! Once you are convicted, because you want to poison too many people, it will be light to sentence you to prison for 30 years!"

A layer of cold sweat immediately broke out on Ye Jigang's back.

"Ah Gang, why on earth did you do this?" Old Master Ye asked sadly.

"Grandpa, I've been obsessed with ghosts..." Ye Jigang blinked and said in a daze.

"Ghosts are obsessed, and you must not think of poisoning your cousins ​​and uncles! There are six people!" Mr. Ye raised his crutches and hit Ye Jigang hard on the back, "I really can't think of it , I have sent you to study for so many years, and it turned you into a beast! No, you are not even as good as a beast!"

This time, even Mrs. Ye was silent.

Although she has always been partial to the eldest family, and even less like the girlish movies of the second and third rooms, she never thought of letting these grandsons and granddaughters die.

Ye Feng first shrank aside, not daring to intercede.He looked at Piaoxu tremblingly, and hoped that Piaoxu would help him beg for mercy.

Piaoxu is only a concubine in the Ye family, and her status is only higher than that of a maid, so how dare she come forward to intercede?
If she was scolded by Mr. Ye for this, or even fined to lock up the woodshed, Ye Fengxian, a coward, wouldn't dare to intercede for her?
Piaoxu can only pretend to be tearful, and express to Ye Fengxian that she is helpless.

Ye Jigang was beaten by Mr. Ye's stick, and he didn't dare to fight back, so he took more than a dozen sticks from him abruptly, and his hatred for this family grew even deeper in his heart!

He hated Mr. Ye for saving face, hated his father for being unkind to his mother, hated that bitch Piaoxu for seducing his father, and hated grandma who stood by while his mother was divorced!
He thought that he had endured the humiliation for long enough, and this time he intended to poison them to death, it was all forced by them!I just hate that God has no eyes, and let them escape.

"Everyone said, how to solve this matter? Go to the county government to report the case, and I have no objection. In the end, Ye Jigang will be sentenced to at least 30 years in prison; the two parties have negotiated privately, and I have no objection. The minority obeys the majority!" Ye Qiongdan looked at everyone "Anyway, Ye Jiwu was also sentenced to exile for three thousand miles. The other two scholars in your eldest room are already considered family members of sinners. Ye Jigang can't spend money to donate children, and uncle can't go to the exam. If you send Ye Jigang to prison again, it will save you some private money."

When Ye Fengxian heard this, his eyes lit up immediately.

However, he is a hypocrite, he subconsciously glanced at Piaoxu again, and Piaoxu nodded affirmatively at him.

"Ah Wu, it's not difficult to solve," Mr. Ye shook his head, "I will ask the patriarch to expel him from the genealogy, and I will also ask Mr. Tang to forge a letter of renunciation to prove that he had been with Ye before committing the crime." This way, it will not affect Fengxian and Ah Gang's achievement in the exam."

Ye Qiongdan didn't know whether to say he was cruel or wise.

Mr. Ye loved face all his life. In order to honor the lintel, he could cruelly let the second and third families live a miserable life.

Now, it seems that it is not unexpected that he can cruelly let Ye Fengxian divorce his wife, and let the Ye family sever ties with Ye Jiwu.

I just don't know if the eldest family of the Ye family thought of such a day when they were enjoying the hard-earned money of the second and third bedrooms.

"So, grandpa is planning to do it privately?" Ye Qiongdan looked at Maid Xue and the others, "Do you have any objections?"

Ye Qinghan and Ye Qingyu stood firmly by her side, no matter what decisions she made; Fourth Uncle lowered his head and didn't speak, looking a bit pitiful; while Xueyatou and Haiyatou looked at each other.

"Give me [-] acres of land, and let's expose this matter, what do you think?" Ye Qiongdan looked at Ye Qinghan and the others again.

"Listen to Third Sister." Ye Qinghan and Ye Qingyu said in unison.

After thinking for a while, Xueyatou and Haiyatou nodded, and then pulled the fourth uncle, who quickly nodded.

"Thirty mu of land? Is it too much?" Ye Fengxian said bravely, "Our Dafang doesn't have thirty mu of land at all!"

"This is your business, please find a way to collect the land yourself, we will not be responsible!" Ye Qiongdan said.

"Niece, you are trying to make your uncle's family in debt! If the uncle owes the debt, how will he be able to pay back the money in the future? How can he have the money to get fame? Are you trying to break the relationship between your uncle and your eldest brother? Is there a future?" Ye Feng was anxious first.

"Then Ye Jigang wanted to poison the six of us before! Which one is more serious?" Ye Qiongdan asked back.

This time, she just wants to draw the bottom line and make the Ye family's big house pile up with debts, so that they will have a long memory and settle down from now on!

"But [-] acres of land, we really can't afford it!" Ye Fengxian began to pour out his bitterness reluctantly, "The crazy woman brought her brother to make a big fuss, and took away two acres of land from the big house. , Later, Ye Jiwu soaked herbal medicine in the water of your pigs, and you took away two acres of land from our big house. Now, our big house has only eleven or two acres of land left! We can’t ask for money for food? We can’t ask for money for reading ? Can’t ask for money to rush for the exam? The money is all for renting the eleven or twelve acres of land!”

"I don't care!" Ye Qiongdan said firmly.

Ye Fengxian rolled his eyes, looked at Old Man Ye, and said cunningly: "Father, if the Ye family wants to shine on the lintel, they can only point at me and Ah Gang, you can't leave us alone!"

"Why should I take care of a beast that is not as good as a pig or a dog!" Old Man Ye was so angry that he hammered the ground with his crutch again.

"Then you can't leave me alone!" Ye Fengxian begged, "The Ye family has already spent so much manpower, material resources and financial resources for me to be admitted to Juren. If you give up now, wouldn't that be a failure? Besides, I am you Dear son, do you have the heart to watch me live like a street mouse in order to avoid debts from now on?"

"Hiding debts? Even if you go to teach in a school, you can pay off your debts bit by bit while making a living!" Old Master Ye pursed his lips.

"If you are willing to be ridiculed, saying that you have been studying for your son for decades, but his son failed to pass the Juren exam, and finally went to teach, you can let me pay the debt!" Ye Fengxian said resentfully.

He thought to himself, if his father really didn't want to take care of them, then he would sever the father-son relationship with Ye Jigang and let Ye Jigang bear the debt of the thirty acres of land by himself!
If Ye Jigang is unwilling, then send him to the yamen. Although he feels sorry for his son, but he is only in prison, and no one can die!

He doesn't want to become a pauper with a lot of debts. If he can't sleep in flowers and willows, fight cocks and walk dogs, it will be more uncomfortable than death!

Son, don't blame dad!

Father doesn't owe you anything, it's your fault!

Mr. Ye glanced back and forth between Ye Fengxian and Ye Jigang. Ye Fengxian was indeed talented in reading, but after he was admitted as a scholar at a young age, he became proud and complacent. Bad habits, academics will go from bad to worse.

It might be too difficult for his prodigal son to turn back now.

Although Ye Jigang's knowledge is mediocre, he is down-to-earth and serious. If he works hard for more than ten years, it may be possible to win the exam.

Thinking of this, Mr. Ye said: "Okay, you take out the six acres of land, and I will figure out the rest."
