The silver hairpin mentioned by Lin Manjin was given by Wang on his own initiative, which is consistent with what Maotou said.
The people at the door made a fuss, and someone immediately spit and cursed, "Bah, what the hell, a flirtatious bastard, it's really not worth it to be a man for her. Not only did she wear a cuckold, but she also lost twenty taels of silver. This is human wealth." Two empty!"
Some people disagreed, and immediately retorted, "Don't sympathize with the man, you sold your own sister for money, what kind of a good family can you be!"
In a word, it made the onlookers think deeply. Even being a servant to Miracle Li would not change the status of servant. Low status is equivalent to paying twenty taels of silver to buy out the rest of your life.
"That's not necessarily the case. If Miracle Doctor Li still wants a maid, I'll send my sister there, and I don't want to give any money."
There was a man with a smug look on his face, and laughed at the ignorance of the people around him. If he could serve Dr. Li as a servant, and eat and drink well, he might be able to learn some basic medical skills.
Serving for two or three years, redeeming her body and marrying someone, people heard that the girl had been in front of Dr. Li, and her status was immediately extraordinary, and the tide was rising, and her husband's family had to look at her carefully.
"Bah, this shame has made you grow thicker than a ten thousand year old pig's skin. Do you want to use Miracle Doctor Li as a stepping stone for your sister to become famous?"
Everyone cast contemptuous glances one after another, making the man ashamed.
Sitting not far from the door, Li Haitang listened clearly. She rubbed her forehead and smiled wryly. Every time she appeared, she always became the focus of attention. She had no direct connection with this case.
"Ma'am, is it cold?"
Xiao Lingchuan moved the charcoal basin to his wife's feet, added a few pieces of charcoal to it, poured another cup of hot tea, and warmed his wife's hands.
Not far from the door, he was blowing the cold wind outside, and he tried his best to resist it with his body.
"Husband, I'm not cold."
Li Haitang shook her head. She wore a lot of clothes when she went out, and the magistrate was considerate, and even gave him thick cushions, a charcoal basin and hot water. This kind of treatment is not available to ordinary people.
Up to now, the twenty taels of silver is basically clear, and we are only waiting for the final result.
Mrs. Wang wiped away her tears with a look of pain on her face.
What caused her pain was not only being exposed, but also Lin Manjin's way of describing her as a low-grade product, and the two had no feelings for each other, only money and **** were traded.
Wang Shi loves to take advantage of small things, but she is an innocent person. Before she met Lin Manjin, she had many shortcomings.
Delicious, lazy, not filial to parents, watching people order dishes, snobbish, but she doesn't know how to hook up with men, she is promiscuous.
Lin Manjin's sweet words moved her very much, and she felt that she was being held in the palm of her hand like a baby, and even having an affair was exciting.
She put all her heart on him, why did she take the initiative, sell herself, if she had no feelings, why would she take the initiative to give away the hairpin?
Wang lowered her head, her heart was sad, and she was a different person from the arrogant and domineering one who had just arrived in court.
"My lord, the grass people are telling the truth, the matter is clear, can the grass people go back?"
Lin Manjin kowtowed, today is the day when the daughter will give the dowry, he was brought to the Yamen by the officials, he must go back early and explain to his in-laws, so as not to misunderstand him.
Come to the Yamen, it's hard to say, he intends to lie, he is here to testify.
The silver hairpin was given away by Mrs. Wang. Since it was a gift, how can there be any reason to return it?
"You wait for a while."
The magistrate didn't give Lin Manjin a good face, but asked Wang, "What do you have to say?"
Now that it's easy to trace through the silver hairpin, just go to the shop and ask, and the official silver will be collected, and the other party will record it.
The source of the money has to be explained clearly. If Mrs. Wang reneges on his debts, lies, and deceives his parents and officials, if his in-laws don't pursue him, he doesn't want to be a villain, and he just needs to return the money.
If the in-law's family insists that they don't want to be private, then Mrs. Wang will have to spend a year in prison.
If the explanation is not clear, the ordinary people have official money, so they can only be accused of stealing, and they will spend at least ten or eight years.
"My lord, the women have nothing to say."
Wang calmed down and began to think about other issues.
"Little sister, you are confused, why did you give the silver hairpin to an outsider?"
It's worth ten taels of silver, that's not one tael, and the family doesn't have that much money, so if you can dowry a good-looking little girl, you can definitely find a good family.
The family attaches great importance to the girl, and she has face when she speaks out.
Brother Wang couldn't hold back his face anymore, he was the first to attack, and he could help lie and perfunctory everything else, but he didn't tolerate his sister having an affair with a foreigner.
He is also a man, he cares about his heart, and his mother-in-law is lazy. It is not a big problem. Marrying a man, marrying a man, dressing and eating, men will naturally have to bear more burdens.
Even if the brother-in-law is a softie, he can't say that he is cheating on someone behind his back. This is really embarrassing to his mother's family!
As the big brother, he just wanted to slap himself hard, and then find a crack in the ground to sneak in, and then go home disheartened after he retired.
"Brother, I lied to you, I'm sorry."
Mrs. Wang stood up, bowed to her two elder brothers, and then asked Lin Manjin, "Since you also admit that the money was taken from me, return it."
Return the money and give it to the in-laws, and discuss the rest later.
Naturally, Lin Manjin refused. He just got married today, and a silver hairpin made him a lot of face.
Official silver is better than ordinary silver, and the colors produced are different, especially bright.
"The silver hairpin was sent by you, so it doesn't make sense to come back."
Lin Manjin's face was a little uncomfortable. Logically speaking, he had some savings, and he was not short of a silver hairpin, but he had already given it to his daughter, and it was still an important dowry, so he couldn't go back on his word.
"You said that you gave me incense powder and silk flowers, and I will pay for it. Then you can accept my ten taels of silver hairpin with peace of mind. How many times do you have to accompany me?"
Wang's expression was sarcasm, and she was in the courtroom, only to realize that she was a fool, and was played around by Lin Manjin.
"Ha ha!"
The common people at the door laughed so hard that their stomachs ached, they squatted down, and used their hands to find something to support them, so they could barely stabilize their figures.
This is definitely the most exciting court case they have ever seen, a wonderful dialogue, more ups and downs than watching a human life lawsuit.
The Wang family sells herself for only a dozen to dozens of Wen. What is Lin Manjin's worth?
"It's a man anyway, it's not easy to serve you, how about fifty coins once?"
The common people followed suit, saying that one tael of silver can accompany Mrs. Wang twenty times, and ten taels of silver means two hundred times.
Happy every day, at least have to sleep with him for half a year. When everyone looked at Lin Manjin, they immediately thought of him with dark circles under his eyes, walking and leaning against the wall.
No way, kidney deficiency!
"It's Lin Manjin who needs fifty coins once? Give me thirty coins, and I'll go if there is a lady who wants to accompany me." The common people used this as a joke, whispering jokes and laughing at each other. The atmosphere at the door, In full swing.
