"Mom, don't worry. With us, I can still let my aunt be bullied." There was a hearty laugh outside, but it was a cousin of Ye Tangcai.
When ye Tangcai and Qiuju listened, they laughed.
"By the way, why are you looking for your mother's dowry list again?" Big Wen said.
"Ye Chengde took my mother's things to fill in the outer room! I hate my mother's dowry list was lost many years ago. I can't cure him. " Ye Tangcai sneered.
"What?" Big Wen exclaimed“ Is there such a thing? "
"Last time we went to their pickled place, the girl saw his wife's things on the Bogu shelf." Autumn orange hates.
"That bastard, keep the outside room, just keep the outside room. He took my sister's things to fill in the bitch!" Then he slapped the car wall: "stop! parking! I'll go back and beat him again and cut off his hand. "
"Mom, it's too late for us to go back now! We had a big fight just now. Naturally, ye Chengde was called home by his two brothers. He's not here. There's only that woman left in the house. If a large group of people like us come to the door and make trouble with that woman, others will think we are bullying. " The bright voice outside the carriage continued.
With a calm face, Dawen snorted coldly, "since we can't fight, we'll see our father-in-law later, so we'll take the dowry list to cure him! Look how he justifies such a shameless thing. "
"It's too cheap for him." Ye Tangcai's eyes flashed a cold awn, and his red lips tilted: "let's take the dowry list and Sue the official directly."
Big Wen's eyes lit up when he listened: "yes! Sue the officer! Just sue the official! "
Dowry is the private property of a woman's family. Even a husband can't take it indiscriminately. If it's finer, it can be punished. But generally, such a thing is a family affair, and no one else will make it.
The man outside listened and tutted. This cousin is really cruel!
Qiuju said, "er... By the way, has aunt brought back the dowry list?"
The letter was mailed ten days ago, when Da Wen had left Dingcheng for Beijing.
Big Wen said, "I happened to bring it back. At that time, I found the dowry list. I was afraid I would lose it when I sent it back. Moreover, I thought your mother had a list there. I didn't think it would be of great use, so I didn't send it all the time. This time I went to Beijing, I prepared for more than half a month. I was busy preparing my accompanying things every day. I was afraid of missing anything. I thought of this list, so I brought it back together. "
Autumn orange and ye Tangcai are a joy.
"Mom, let's go back to my uncle's house to get the list." Said the bright voice outside. They were going to the Marquis of Jing'an to seek justice for Wen.
"Exactly." Big Wen said loudly in the carriage.
The carriage turned a corner and headed for the West Street. After walking for a quarter of an hour, it entered the east corner gate of Wen's house and stopped.
Qiuju hurriedly jumped out of the car and put down the stool.
Ye Tangcai and Da Wen got out of the car one after another. Looking up, they saw a group of handsome young CHILDES standing there. They saw her looking at her, and then stared at her and smiled.
"It was too chaotic to introduce." Da Wen smiled, "this is your second cousin Qiu Jing, third cousin Qiu Lang, fourth cousin Qiu Huan and fifth cousin Qiu Jue. Your eldest cousin and sister-in-law are in charge of the family business in Dingcheng and have not come to Beijing. "
"Hello, cousin!" The four saluted in unison.
Ye Tangcai blushed and grew so big that the man saw more amazing eyes, but suddenly she was surrounded by so many people. This situation was embarrassing enough for her.
Her eyes were as like as two peas, and the four youngest two men were the same. Hurriedly blessed a gift: "good cousin."
Qiuju smiled: "aunt, are all cousins? No cousin? "
Big Wen said, "the youngest three and four are two months older than sister Tang."
"Aunt, let's go!" Ye Tangcai said.
"Good." Big Wen answered and wanted to pull ye Tangcai, but her sons held her.
Ye Tang was stunned and had to walk ahead with Qiuju. The voice of big Wen and his cousins came from behind——
"Mom, there is such a beautiful cousin at home. Why don't you tell us?"
Big Wen said, "why didn't I say it? You just laugh foolishly."
One smiled and said, "why didn't my mother think of marrying such a beautiful cousin home?"
Ye Tangcai stumbled in front, with a hot face.
Big Wen smiled and scolded, "why didn't you think about it. But when I got married far away, I knew the pain of separation. How can I make my little sister and sister Tang suffer like this? "
The four brothers sobbed together.
"Well, let's go! Look, I'm blushing. " Big Wen smiled and came forward, holding ye Tangcai's hand: "go!"
Several people hurried to Mrs. Wen's yard, then stepped into the house and heard someone talking inside.
"When your elder sister heard that ye Chengde was in the outer room, she was so angry that she took a big stick and rushed out. She couldn't stop it." There was a helpless voice inside.
There was a silence for a while before a voice said, "elder sister is still as angry as before." It was Wen's voice.
"Mother." Ye Tangcai and Da Wen hurried in.
I saw four people chatting in Mrs. Wen's bedroom.
Mrs. Wen is lying on the recliner, next to Chen, the aunt of Wen and ye Tangcai. Wen LANYA is also here.
"Sister Tang... Big sister, big sister!" Wen was stunned when he saw ye Tangcai, and saw the woman standing next to her with red eyes. He stood up and said, "big sister!"
"Little sister." Big Wen walked over and the sisters hugged each other and wept.
"As soon as I received a letter from my mother's house saying you were in Beijing, I came to you immediately. I don't want you... So I went out. " Wen said while crying.
When Da Wen mentioned Ye Chengde, he was so angry that red blood came out of his eyes: "how good... Well, let's stop crying. I have an important thing to do right now. You stay here. I'll be back later. You, too, stay here for a while. Let's get together. "
"Good." Wen quickly agreed.
"Hey, elder sister, where are you going? Is it ye... "Chen said anxiously.
Don't want to, big Wen Shi but horizontal her one eye, Chen Shi a surprised, then stopped mouth.
Dawen said, "it's my business. I want to count the fruit wine in Shanggong."
Qiujia is a famous merchant in Dingcheng. It is engaged in the wine business. It is an old imperial merchant. But ten years ago, other wine merchants rose and made better wine than Qiu family, so the imperial merchant's qualification was taken away by other wine merchants.
A few years ago, Da Wen's eldest son officially took over the family business, improved wine making technology and brought forth the new. This year, he finally regained his qualification as an imperial merchant.
Dawen and his sons went to Beijing to bring the wine from the Shanggong court to Beijing and visit their relatives.
"Oh, then go quickly. Business matters." Wen was reluctant to give up, but he still knew which was more important.
"Siro, Wulang, you are here to talk to your grandmother and aunt." Big Wen said.
"Yes, mother." The youngest twins responded quickly, smiling and likable.
"Mom, I'll go with my aunt to see their fruit wine. I'll give you two spoons." As ye Tangcai said this, he pulled Da Wen and ran out.
"Hey... Sister Tang..."
Wen's voice sounded behind him, but ye Tangcai ran away with big Wen.
Out of the house, ye Tangcai said, "where does my aunt live?"
Da Wen took Ye Tang out of the yard and said, "it's the Xin snow garden next to the side. Originally, I wanted to live in your grandmother's yard, but there were too many things there, occupying several wing rooms. I also wanted to pick up your mother to get together, so I simply lived in the nearby yard. Where are all the cages piled! I plan to spend the new year here this year and return to Dingcheng after no night next year. "
As they spoke, they had already reached the nearby Xin snow garden, where servant girls and women were sorting things. It was the servant brought by Da Wen.
"Turn out that dowry list quickly!" Big Wen said.
A well-dressed woman quickly promised, and soon turned out a long black wooden box from the cage. Big Wen opened it and saw a yellow pamphlet lying inside. This is Wen's dowry list.
Ye Tangcai quickly picked up the list and turned it over.
"Go!" With a cold drink, Da Wen took ye Tangcai and his two sons out.
Several people went out of the Chuihua gate and got on the carriage. Da Wen said to the outside, "tell the groom, let's go to the Yamen!"
"Good!" Qiu Lang agreed with a smile.
The carriage drove out quickly and headed for the Yamen.
About two quarters of an hour, he finally stopped in front of the Yamen. In broad daylight, the gate of the Yamen is open. There are two yamen guards outside, and a grievance drum on the right.
Ye Tangcai was about to pass by, but da Wen took her and grabbed the dowry list in her hand: "let me come, don't go."
"I'll do it." Ye Tangcai frowned.
"You're stupid! You are ye's daughter, ye Chengde's daughter. If you sue an official, it's Ye Chengde. Don't tell your parents first, you'll have to be punished first. Later, others will say you're unfilial. Anyway, no matter how reasonable you are, others will use the word filial piety to pressure you! Spittle stars will drown you. " Big Wen said.
"My mother is right." Qiu Lang said, "in this world, nothing is more suitable than my mother. My aunt is not only your mother, but also my mother's sister. "
Big Wen had already rushed, picked up the drum and knocked it with a bang.
The Yamen messenger nearby ran over with his ears covered: "don't knock, don't knock, sir! If you have any grievances, just go in. "
If there's anything wrong, you have to go through the martial master first. See what case it is.
When they entered the Yamen together, they saw a large trial table and a plaque with blue sky written on the back. Turning left was the entrance of the back hall, and entering was the shiye's office.
"What can I do for you?" Shiye is a man in his forties with a goatee.
"We're going to sue for theft." With a sneer, Dawen came forward, "my sister's dowry was stolen. The thief lives in a small courtyard in Songhua lane. We have a dowry list here. Please go with me to get it."
Master Mao raised his head and saw that the woman in front of him looked very beautiful. She was a lady, and there stood a beautiful girl. Shiye couldn't help looking at his eyes, and his eyes stuck to ye Tangcai.
Qiu Lang was so angry that he came forward and patted the case: "what are you looking at, ah?"
Master Mao's face stiffened, quickly moved his eyes, smiled and said, "Oh, it's a theft. OK, let's search for dirt. If it's true, take someone."
Master Mao brushed and wrote the case paper, and then personally took 20 yamen guards out.
The party went to Songhua lane. The door of yongcunju was tightly closed. Qiulang kicked the door open with one foot. The Yamen sent a fish into it.
"What are you doing? Ah? " Chen Ma and the two servant girls screamed when they saw a yamen rushed in.
Yin tingniang also came out of the house. Seeing that Da Wen came back and was still with ye Tangcai, coupled with ya Chai, she was stunned: "what do you want to do?"
"It's in the Bogu shelf in the house!" Qiu Ju cried, bringing Ya Chai into the house. After a while, Ya Chai held out a pile of things, "these are dirty things! It's my wife's stuff, but it was stolen by the thief. "
"I didn't!" When Yin tingniang saw these things, her face changed and exclaimed, "I didn't steal, I didn't."
Master Mao said coldly, "have you come to the Yamen for trial?"
"You can't catch me! I'm from the prince of Jing'an. This house is the house of the prince of Jing'an. How can we steal from the people of the Marquis of Jing'an? " Yan tingniang said with a small white face.
Master Mao's eyebrows jumped when he heard the name of Jing'an Marquis house. It was a powerful man, not an ordinary rich man. For powerful people, if you can't offend them, you won't offend them.
Master Mao couldn't help looking at Dawen. Dawen sneered, "are you from the Marquis of Jing'an? Who is it? Why don't I know? "
Yan tingniang only felt extremely wronged and cried, "Sir, we are really the Marquis of Jing'an. This is really the son's house. If you don't believe it, you can ask the son and invite him. "
Master Mao felt a chill in his heart and thought it was true.
Yin tingniang looked at ye Tangcai again: "sister Tang, how can you do this... This is your father, you can't be so unfilial! You don't like me, hate me, and you can't wrong him like this. You can't ask the government to catch him! "
Master Mao's eyelids are jumping. How dare you be a family!
Big Wen drank coldly: "don't talk about it. I called it. It's none of sister Tang's business. Don't mix food! " Looking at master Mao again, "the dirt is here. Anyway, it's theft. Please take this person back to the Yamen for investigation."
Yan tingniang cried and said, "Sir, these things belong to the Marquis of Jing'an. This is the house of the prince of Jing'an. He just put his things here."
Master Mao was stunned: "this..."
"Well, I don't know. When did my mother's dowry become Ye Chengde's private property? It's actually posted to your outer room. " Ye Tang picked red lips and sneered. He glanced at master Mao: "a woman's dowry is private property. Even her husband and husband's family can't move a penny. Otherwise it will be theft! "
Master Mao didn't know what to do for a moment. He didn't want to offend the dignitaries, but the dirt was found out. Ye Tangcai and Da Wen kept biting, so he had to say, "take it back first."
The Yamen came forward and pressed Yin tingniang.
Yan tingniang was dragged away and screamed, "I didn't! You have wronged people! I didn't! Shizi, call Shizi back. "
"Madam! Madam! " Chen Ma and other servant girls cried out when they saw Yin tingniang being dragged away.
Da Wen came forward, gouged out Chen Ma and others, and sneered, "madam? Good, good, good wife! "
As soon as the servant girl's face changed, Mrs. Chen didn't dare to say anything.
"Go!" Big Wynn gave a cold drink,
The Yamen had dragged Yin tingniang out, put on a pony cart, and then ran towards the Yamen.
Master Mao and others pressed Yin tingniang back to the Yamen.
Master Mao knows the whole story.
Almost everyone knows about the outside room of the prince of Jing'an. Unexpectedly, he took his original wife's dowry and posted it outside the room. Now the original wife's family came to sue the official and said that he stole her dowry.
Master Mao felt that he had a big head. Which dignitaries did not cover up and solve the housework behind closed doors, which would sue the officials to deal with it like this.
Master Mao didn't dare to make his own decisions, so he went to find Cheng Fuyin and let him decide.
Cheng Fuyin is an honest official. He is unambiguous in his important affairs, but this kind of housework... He who can stay in the position of Fuyin for so long is also a person who knows the rules and regulations, so it is convenient for dignitaries.
After thinking about it, Cheng Fuyin took the young man to report to the Marquis of Jing'an.
Ye Chengde was beaten half to death because of Da Wen's quarrel in Songhua lane. Ye Chengxin brothers came out and asked Da Wen to come to the door, hoping to appease Da Wen.
Anning Hall——
Ye Hewen and Miao sat on the couch. Ye Chengde, ye Yun, the second room and the third room, and ye Lingjiao all sat in the armchair below, waiting for Da Wen's door.
Ye Hewen's face was heavy: "why haven't you come yet? Didn't they say they got out of the street and into the carriage? I've been waiting for most of the day! "
Ye Chengxin sneered: "who knows."
Ye Chenggang said, "I saw them get on the bus. And when we opened the door, she also said she would come to my sister-in-law... To seek justice... It's impossible not to come! "
"Don't dare to come. Admit it." Sun's ha da. Seeing ye Chengde beaten by his sister-in-law, sun's family was going to laugh to death. The big room was really... Noisy one after another. Tut Tut, this play is really good.
"Where's Wen?" Ye Hewen frowned, "why don't you come?"
"The young man of the eldest brother came to report that a quarter of an hour before the eldest brother was beaten, the eldest sister went out happily and said that her eldest sister had come back and wanted to go back to her mother's house." Ye Lingjiao said, glancing at Ye Chengde, full of luck and disaster.
My sister-in-law will not see her sister when she returns to her mother's house, because her sister is beating people in Songhua Lane!
Ye Lingjiao thought it was time for someone to beat her up. But Wen could not beat him, otherwise he would bear the reputation of a wicked woman who beat her husband. If he did, others would even say that he deserved to keep her out of the room. She can't fight because that's her big brother. If she beats her father, she will blame her for causing trouble. Sister Tang can't fight because it's her father. No matter how dirty and shameless, she can't do it, otherwise a filial son will crush people.
Only the mother's family can make it a matter of course.
