Chapter 102 What is face?
"why?"

"He deserves to fight!"

As he spoke, Shen Wenhai's eyes turned for an instant, and he glared at Guo Jianren.Seeing this situation, Gou Zhixian pretended to think deeply for a while, and then said:
"Should we fight?! Why should we fight?!"

He raised his eyebrows and asked back, and then without waiting for Shen Wenhai to speak, Gou Zhixian said again:

"In other words, I am clear about the character and style of the second son of the Shen family. Not only I know it, but everyone in the capital also knows it. Therefore, I don't think the second son is so indiscriminate. People who beat people..."

Gou Zhixian's voice was not too loud, it seemed to be talking to himself but it was clearly heard by everyone present.After the words fell, he turned his head and glanced at the master next to him.And that master has been with Gouzhi County for a long time, so when he heard Gouzhi County say this, he immediately echoed it.

"What your lord said is very true. Although my subordinates have never met the second son of the Shen family, they have heard of it to some extent. Therefore, if it is said that the beating was done by anyone, the subordinates will not be surprised, but If it's the second son of the Shen family, it's up for discussion..."

It can be seen that this master is not a simple character.After a few words, although he didn't insist on it, it was obviously interesting.Therefore, as soon as his words fell, Gou Zhixian nodded immediately.

"Well! Reasonable! Is there a reason for everything?!"

As if suddenly thinking of it, Gou Zhixian then raised his head to look at Mrs. Lin

"Tell me, why did the second son of the Shen family beat someone?"

"Uh... this... this woman doesn't know... it's just that the second son of the Shen family started doing it as soon as he entered the door today, so..."

Gou Zhixian finally got to the point.But for Lin, how could she not know the reason for Shen Wenhai's beating? !But she couldn't speak the truth, so she couldn't help faltering.Seeing Lin's behavior like this, Gou Zhixian's eyes flashed, and then he asked sternly, Lin was speechless.

Seeing this situation, Shen Lingbo knew that it was finally time, so he raised his voice and said:
"Master Zhixian, I know why my second brother lost control and beat someone!"

Shen Lingbo's words came suddenly.Hearing this, Lin and Guo's family suddenly changed their expressions.But Gou Zhixian turned his head in an instant and asked:

"Oh? Tell me! What's going on?"

"Hehe, it's very simple. The reason why my second brother did it is because of my eldest sister. By the way, I have to tell the county magistrate here that my eldest sister is the eldest daughter-in-law of the Guo family, that is, the son of the Guo family who was beaten. Righteous wife! And the reason for everything is because my eldest sister was wronged in the Guo family, so my second elder brother, who has always been a gentleman, became angry and hurt others!"

Shen Lingbo made the point in a few words!In this regard, the Guo family is naturally quite critical, but it is difficult to refute.After all, what Shen Lingbo said was the truth!But upon hearing this, Gou Zhixian blinked his small mung bean-like eyes, and after a while suddenly realized something and said:

"Oh! All in all, my natal brother-in-law was dissatisfied with his sister being bullied, and then beat her brother-in-law..."

Gou Zhixian's words are very incisive!But after the words fell, his eyes widened instantly in displeasure.

"Then, isn't this just a housework?! Why do you ask me to do housework?! Haven't you heard of 'It's hard for a clean official to solve housework'?! What? Don't you think this official is idle? ?”

In order to deliberately show his fairness, Gou Zhixian said this to Shen Lingbo.But hearing the words, Shen Lingbo laughed
"Master Zhixian, in fact, today's incident was just an accident! My second brother is a scholar, and he would never have done it if he hadn't been impatient! Therefore, although our Shen family felt a little sorry for this incident, we didn't feel sorry for it. It's a big deal, and I didn't even think about asking the county magistrate to come here. But the Guo family...hehe, or this Aunt Lin is full of momentum and said that she wants to see the official! So, in desperation, I had to let the county magistrate come over It's a trip!"

"Hmph! It's really sesame and mung bean that you have to see the official for even a small matter! Aunt Lin, who is Aunt Lin?"

With a cold snort, Gouzhi County was very angry, and upon hearing this, Lin suddenly became a little uneasy.But that subtle expression just caught Gou Zhixian
"Oh! It turns out that you are Aunt Lin! No wonder you were the first to come out and call for grievances as soon as I came here! After all, you deliberately wanted the villain to sue first! Then you calculated that I would leave the second son of the Shen family in vain. I won't ask about the reasons before... I'm telling you, I'm not that stupid!"

Balabala... Gouzhi County gave Lin a good reprimand, and Lin who said it straight had no power to refute!But when the words fell, he got up and made a gesture to leave. Seeing this situation, Shen Lingbo, who had already prepared his speech, raised his voice and called Gou Zhixian to stop
"Master Zhixian, let's go slowly!"

"What? Does the Second Miss of the Shen family have anything else to say?"

"No! It's just that Ling Bo has an unfeeling request, and ask the county magistrate to agree?"

"Unfeeling please?! Dare I ask what the Second Miss of the Shen family said?"

Raising his voice to ask back, Gou Zhixian deliberately pretended to be dignified and majestic.Then Shen Lingbo smiled slightly

"Lord Magistrate, to be honest, we Shen brothers and sisters came to the Guo family together today for the sake of my elder sister and the Guo family! I wanted to make it clear in private, but I didn't want such a thing to happen in the first place. Even just now Aunt Lin also said that my brothers and sisters from the Shen family are bullying others... Therefore, since the magistrate has already arrived, why not stay a little longer? After all, with the magistrate present, no one would dare to use tricks to play tricks! I also happen to be a notary, In the future, some people in the province will say that there is something and nothing, and gossip! So, what do you think, magistrate?"

In fact, it was in the plan to find Gouzhi County today!Therefore, no matter whether his second brother beat someone or not, Shen Lingbo would have thousands of reasons to call Gouzhi County over!
The county magistrate in the capital is only a fifth-rank official. Looking at the hundreds of officials in the capital, he is really just a small official of sesame mung bean!But no matter how big other officials are, they can't manage things. Although the county magistrate is small, he just happens to be in charge!And, in this way, firstly, it can prevent the Guo family from spreading rumors everywhere afterwards, making things out of nothing.Second, it can also prevent outsiders from saying that they closed the door and came to the Shen family to bully others, which is unfair to the Guo family!And the third is that if someone in the court talks about the old man of the Shen family behind his back, then Gou Zhixian can stand up and speak for the old man as a bystander or neutral person!After all, no matter how soft-spoken an official Gouzhi County is, he is at least an official!
Everything was as Shen Lingbo expected, Gouzhi County came and performed perfectly!Afterwards, Shen Lingbo naturally turned things towards his own plan along the Huatou, but the Guo family couldn't see any clues!
Therefore, at this moment, hearing Shen Lingbo say this, Gou Zhixian naturally understood what she meant, and after pretending to think for a while, he nodded and said:
"Well! Since the second lady of the Shen family said so, and the official is here now, it is better to stay! After all, this Shen family is an official residence. Although the Guo family is not a big family, it is also a scholarly family. If something goes wrong and you make a fuss, it's really bad..."

What Gou Zhixian said was very touching. After he finished speaking, he turned his head to look at the Guo family.
"Guo family, I stay here, do you have any objection?"

Once again, Gou Zhixian did a decent job of fully demonstrating his fairness. After hearing this, the Guo family naturally couldn't say anything, and they really had objections in their hearts, but they couldn't say it on this occasion!
The matter was finalized, and Gou Zhi County stayed.But at the same time, it also made clear its position, that is, just be a bystander, don't interrupt, don't ask questions, let the Guo family and the Shen family confront each other, and only stand up to speak out when there is a dispute... To put it bluntly, it is a referee!

And upon hearing this, the Guo family, who were still somewhat taboo, were completely relieved, and the Lin family was even more relieved.Seeing this situation, Shen Lingbo couldn't help sneering secretly, then walked back to his seat and sat down again

"Okay, Aunt Lin, the county magistrate is just a bystander now, so let's continue the previous topic!... Tell me, as long as you can tell the reason why your Guo family divorced your wife, it's fair and honest, and my Shen family doesn't say anything Take my eldest sister back directly, no matter what!"

Speaking proudly, Shen Lingbo narrowed his eyes and looked at Mrs. Lin.Obviously, he wanted to ask clearly about the divorce of his wife!Upon hearing this, Lin's eyes flashed instantly, then turned to face Shen Lingbo and said:
"Miss Shen really wants me to tell? Aren't you afraid of being laughed at? After all, your Shen family is an official family, aren't you afraid of losing face?"

I don't know if it's a threat or a reminder, but Lin's words are very interesting.So before her words fell, Shen Lingbo laughed

"A joke? Embarrassment? Ha ha... Is Aunt Lin leaving a step for our Shen family?! If that's the case, then Miss Ben will appreciate it..."

He opened his mouth softly, and then Shen Lingbo raised his hand and raised the priceless step tassel hanging by his ear...

"However, before saying this, did Aunt Lin forget one thing? That is, does Aunt Lin know who this lady is? Hmm?!"

With a smile on his lips, Shen Lingbo accidentally said something, and after he finished speaking, he closed his eyes without waiting for Lin to speak.

"Aunt Lin should know! Besides, it's not just Aunt Lin, but there must be very few people in the capital and even in the entire Tianyu Kingdom who don't know who this lady is... Let me tell you, this lady is Shen Lingbo, the second daughter of Shen Qing, Minister of Justice. , who once married the eldest son of the Zhu family, Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, but who would have thought that she would be divorced on the night of the wedding, and she would jump into the river the next day and return to her natal family! This lady is an abandoned woman and the first daughter of the Shen family to be divorced. Look at the joke, say it's embarrassing, Miss Ben has already lost face, so if there is another one now, do you think our Shen family will still be afraid?!"

"Hmph, it's said that it was a broken jar, it's true! But even if you drop the broken jar, you don't want to lose face, our Shen family will not just let our family members be bullied outside!"
