Chapter 59: Chapter 59
Chapter 59 59 A great victory
The long-faced woman was stunned for a moment, her eyes flickering, then she took out a piece of paper and waved it before taking it back, "Let's see...hey, what are you grabbing? Do you still have any royal laws?"
Qi Qi quickly grabbed the paper and read, "The Wang family owes a debt of five taels and eight dollars and is unable to repay it. I will pay the debt to Xiaohua, the daughter of the Wang family's wife, as a promise."
"Heh." Qi Qi sneered.
"Pah!" He slapped the paper on the table with his palm and said angrily, "I will use my Gu family daughter to pay off the Wang family's debts. You think our Gu family has no one!"
"Yes, who dares to be so presumptuous?" Many people came in at the entrance of the courtyard, including the Yang family's father and son and several families from the east of the village. They also held rakes and sickles in their hands, looking menacing.
"Ouch, if you have something to say, speak up, speak up, and don't act harshly." Mrs. Hua was really pissed off by the long-faced woman. All the good things were messed up by her.
"You...they dare, there is no way for them to do so." The long-faced woman showed a trace of fear on her face, but she still held it back.
"What else can I tell you about royal laws?" Qi Qi took a step forward, glanced at her with disdain, then looked at Mrs. Hua and said sarcastically, "Auntie is really good at handling people's affairs."
"Ouch, ouch, you can't say that. I'm not doing this for Xiao Hua and the others." Hua Pozi has a clever mouth and can say anything to fool people, "Look at their family, old
Old and young, how are you living these days? Xiaohua has gone to the Zhang family, so she really doesn’t have to worry about food and clothing. Good days are waiting for her in the future."
"Tsk, if you don't have to worry about food and clothing, you will live a good life. Do you really think so?" Qi Qi looked directly at Mrs. Hua with a cold look in her eyes, and said, "If nothing else, the one you hold is nothing.
I want to come to the Gu family and rob the daughter of a citizen if I break the document."
"You...ah...it hurts. Let go." The long-faced woman stretched out her hand and was about to take action when Su Hong, who had arrived long ago, pinched her wrist.
Seeing this, Mrs. Hua waved her hands and said, "As long as you are here, this matter will be done successfully. If you don't leave, I will leave." She said that she didn't care about other people and left alone.
The sixth mother-in-law was also hesitating just now. The floods had flooded all her fields and she had no harvest. She was worried about how to live in the future, so the bride came as soon as she said she would marry, and the betrothal gift was quite large.
"That's not what you just said." The Sixth Wife was being supported on the left and right by Xiao Huatian Wazi. Seeing that Qi Qi was making the decision for her, she finally calmed down.
Xiaohua is very sincere and kowtows loudly.
"It's okay now, but look at this person's attitude." Qi Qi looked at the long-faced woman and said, "Go back and tell your master that every wrong has its own debtor, and whoever owes you money should ask for it. If you dare to implicate innocent people again, we will
I really don’t mind going to the Yamen and asking for justice. We, the Gu family, are not easy to bully."
"You're welcome, we are all neighbors, Aunt Six. If anything happens in the future, just give us a shout and we will come over. There are many of us, so we are not afraid of those foreigners." Someone in the crowd said heart-warming words, which also moved Qi Qi.
"Don't be afraid, Grandma Six, it's okay." Qi Qi comforted Grandma Six, and then looked at Grandma Hua and others again, with sharp eyes and a sneer on her lips, "Okay, there is one more crime, cheating.
What about marriage? Or abduction?"
"Hey, don't, don't be angry. Let's go, let's leave now. Marriage is a matter of your own free will. Since you don't want to, we can't force you, right? Let's leave now." Mrs. Hua knew that today
I definitely couldn't do this, so I wanted to leave.
"No, there was no robbery." Mrs. Hua hurriedly waved her hand to deny, "I'm not here to come as a matchmaker. Master Zhang said that he would give Xiaohua another eight coins as a betrothal gift..."
I secretly hate myself, why would the Zhang family send her to follow this two hundred and fifty? It's just adding to the chaos.
"Grandma Six, tell me slowly, how did she fool you just now?" Qi Qi asked the Sixth Grandma in a slow voice.
"Thank you for coming to help, thank you." The sixth wife thanked the neighbors in the yard again.
"Grandma Six, you're so polite. I shouldn't have done this. Xiaohua, get up quickly." Qi Qi couldn't resist the feeling.
"How can this be done? The matter hasn't been done yet?" The long-faced woman was unwilling.
As soon as Su Hong let go, the long-faced woman staggered. She endured the pain and swallowed what she wanted to say, "Let's go."
"Qi Niang, thank you so much." Mrs. Liu excitedly took Qi Qi's hand to thank her again and sighed, "Xiao Hua is really blessed to have you as a master in her previous life. Xiao Hua, please kowtow to your master."
"
"I got it." He who knows the current affairs is a hero. At this time, the long-faced woman can no longer be arrogant.
Yes, distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors.
She didn't want to covet Xiaohua's betrothal gift, but she just wanted to let Xiaohua go out and live a good life, which was better than living a miserable life with her, an old woman. Besides, she really didn't expect that Xiaohuaniang could be so black-hearted and cheat her own daughter.
Qi Qi snorted, folded the contract and stuffed it into his arms and said, "This is evidence. I have to go to the county government to file a complaint tomorrow, so how can I give it to you?"
"Her mother? Her mother has remarried several years ago. If you marry a chicken, follow the chicken, if you marry a dog, follow the dog. She is not a Gu family woman, so what right does she have to sell Gu family daughter? It is terrible to be uneducated. I think you still have to go to the county
Stay in jail for a few days and clear your mind."
"Madam, are you okay?" Su Hong looked at Qi Qi and listened to her instructions.
"Go away." Qi Qi signaled Su Hong to let her go.
"What kind of kidnapping? It was her mother who took the initiative to sell it." The long-faced woman was unhappy and blurted out, but the flower lady beside her couldn't stop her even if she wanted to.
The long-faced woman had a look of pain on her face. It seemed that Su Hong's hand was so strong that even the bones were broken.
Su Hong also saw a large group of people in front of the courtyard carrying farm tools and shouting to come to the sixth wife's house. She was worried about Qi Qi who was out, so she and Baoping came to find her.
"She said that the Zhang family was a wealthy family with fields and shops. The Zhang family's master died and his wife wanted to remarry. They were introduced by Xiaohua's mother and came to see each other. If they were suitable, they made an appointment. Eight coins of silver were used as engagement money and they wrote a marriage letter.
, and another five taels of silver as a betrothal gift." The sixth wife cried at the end, and fearfully said, "Qi Niang, thank you for coming, otherwise I would have harmed Xiao Hua."
The long-faced woman stamped her feet and looked at the group of men holding rakes outside. She gritted her teeth and raised her feet to leave. When she saw the paper in Qi Qi's hand, she stretched out her hand and said, "Give me back the contract."
The three of them were high-spirited when they arrived, but looked disgraced when they left. They were really big people.
If you have a few good neighbors around you, your life will be much happier.
If you encounter bad neighbors, it will be a nightmare.
At this time, looking at the united villagers at the east end, Qi Qi's lips slightly raised, feeling much better.
Seeing that nothing happened, everyone dispersed. There were still a lot of things to do at home. Alas, the floods were merciless, but life had to go on. We could only find ways to make up for it a little bit.
