Report

Ye Xiaoniangzi's family was soon brought here. Ye father, Ye mother, two elder brothers, and one younger brother. At first glance, this family looked like very simple and honest ordinary farmers. When they came to the court, they knelt down and didn't dare to raise their heads.

Hua Qingfeng came out of the second hall and continued to hear the case. At this time, many people have heard the news and crowded in the corridor to watch the trial. The scene was very lively.

Now Hua Qingfeng's mentality is much more relaxed. According to etiquette, remarriage is not advocated. If Ye Xiaoniangzi's in-laws and her maiden family oppose her remarriage, and there is a solution proposed by Feng Laifu, he can make a judgment and give Register Wang a strong counterattack. And before Feng Laifu dared to say that, it is obvious that he has discussed with the Ye family. The case is already settled and there is no possibility of change.

With a smile on his face, Hua Qingfeng calmly called the plaintiff and the defendant to the hall. In front of everyone, he told Feng Laifu's proposal to Ye father and asked: "Do you agree to this arrangement?"

Ye father secretly glanced at Feng Laifu and was stared at fiercely by him. He hurriedly retracted his gaze and said: "I will listen to the arrangement of the First Master!"

Hua Qingfeng was displeased: "What is this? I ask you, do you agree to this arrangement?"

Ye father stammered: "This commoner … this commoner agrees!"

Feng Laifu did talk to him about this before. After discovering that Ye Qian escaped over the wall, Feng Laifu couldn't catch up with her, so he told Ye father about this method. At that time, he didn't know that his daughter-in-law could find Register Wang's niece as a backer. It's just that recently, there were several new officials in Hulu County. Feng Laocai didn't understand these new officials. He was worried that something might go wrong, so he discussed this method with Ye father just in case.

Father Ye had three sons. Their family was poor. He wanted to find a wife for them, but he didn't have the conditions. The eldest son and the second son were able to find a wife, but they relied on the betrothal gift of his daughter to the sickly Feng family. Now that the third son had grown up, it was time for him to find a wife. Maybe this matter would fall on his sister.

For Ye father, his son is his own support. His daughter is a loser. Sooner or later, she will belong to someone else's family. For this daughter, he doesn't have the same love as his son. Now that she has become the daughter-in-law of the Feng family, there is no reason not to agree.

When Tian Miaowen heard Ye father's words, she couldn't help but frown. Suddenly, she felt that someone is looking at her. Tian Miaowen looked up and saw that there are many people standing in the corridor. Register Wang and Ye Xiaotian have been moved to the side room.

The person who was looking at her was Ye Xiaotian. Seeing her raise her head, Ye Xiaotian grinned at her, revealing a mouthful of white teeth. He placed his thumb in front of his chest and pointed at himself. Clearly, he wanted her to ask him for help and use his scoundrel style of fighting. Tian Miaowen snorted and turned her head away disdainfully.

Behind the case, Hua Qingfeng got an accurate answer from Ye father. He smiled and said: "That's good. Then this official will judge … …"

"Daren, wait!"

Tian Miaowen suddenly stepped forward and cupped her hands.

Hua Qingfeng's face darkened. He said unhappily: "What? Does Litigation Master Tian have something to say?"

Tian Miaowen said: "Since the elders of the Feng and Ye families have come to a consensus, this litigation master naturally has nothing else to say. However, this also involves the future support of the Ye family's wife. The Ye family is poor. The brothers have already married and the parents are old. As a widow, it is not suitable for her to show her face in public and make a living … … "

When Feng Laifu heard this, he immediately said: "Litigation Master Tian, this Feng said that I will take care of her food, clothing, housing and transportation!"

Tian Miaowen looked at him coldly and said: "Words are no proof. Evidence must be written!"

When Feng Laifu heard this, he happily said: "This Feng's spit is a nail. How can I go back on my words! Since Litigation Master Tian doesn't believe me, then what's the harm in writing it? "

"Good!"

Tian Miaowen walked towards the scribe who was in charge of taking down the records and ordered indifferently, "Step aside!"

The petty official was intimidated by her majesty. He also knew that she was Register Wang's niece, so he subconsciously left the table. Tian Miaowen sat down and spread out a piece of paper. She thought for a moment and picked up the brush to write.

Tian Miaowen's brush moved like a dragon and a snake. She wrote a large piece of paper into a written receipt and 'shua' it to the side. She then wrote another one without missing a word. She placed the brush on the inkstone and picked up the two written receipts. She walked to the front of the official table and said in a clear voice: "County Magistrate, please take a look. Is this written receipt acceptable?"

Hua Qingfeng took the receipt and looked at it. It said: "Today, there is a Ye family. Her name is Qian. She married Feng Yu. In less than a year, her husband passed away. She was strong and died. Her uncle did not marry. Ye kept her chastity and could not avoid suspicion. Today, the Feng and Tian families have come to a consensus. County Magistrate Princess Hua and Litigation Master Tian will be the witness. Ye will be sent to the Feng family and will not be married. If she keeps her chastity and does not marry, her basic necessities will be provided by the Feng family every month. When Ye is over 50 years old and still keeps her chastity, the Feng family will take her back and provide for her! "

After Hua Qing Feng finished reading, he stroked his beard and praised, "Emotions, reason, and agreements are all within!"

Hua Qingfeng raised his head and said to Feng Laifu and Papa Ye, "Both of you come forward and read it together!"

Feng Laifu was literate, but Father Ye was not. He walked forward and only cared about looking at Feng Laifu. Feng Laifu took the receipt and carefully read it. He nodded and said, "Fair and reasonable, this commoner agrees!" Seeing this, Father Ye hurriedly nodded and said, "This commoner also agrees!"

Hua Qingfeng said, "If that's the case, the two of you can sign it!"

As the county magistrate, Hua Qingfeng first signed his name on the witness stand and stamped it with his official seal. Feng Laifu took the two documents and spread them on the small official's desk. He picked up a brush and wrote his name. Then he pressed his thumb on the ink and printed his fingerprint.

Papa Ye saw this and clumsily picked up the brush and carefully drew a circle on the document. He also pressed his fingerprint. Although in his heart, his daughter was not as important as his son, she was his own flesh and blood. After doing this, he felt guilty and did not dare to look at his daughter. He lowered his head and retreated.

Tian Miaowen walked forward and coldly looked at Feng Laifu. She scolded: "Get out of the way!"

As soon as she stepped forward, a burst of fragrance came to his face. Feng Laifu, the old pervert, smelled it. His heart swayed, but Miss Tian was a noble person. A country rich man like him could not touch her. He had to step aside.

Tian Miaowen picked up the brush and wrote her name. She carefully folded the two documents. She picked up one and walked to the Ye family's wife. She said to her: "Ye family's wife, your life depends on this document. This document, you have to keep it well!"

Ye Qian married to the Feng family for less than half a year. When she married, her husband was sick. The relationship between husband and wife was a bit thin. She was still young. If she could remarry, she would be loved by a man who knew her well.

Now that her family was cowardly and greedy, and her husband's family was so shameless and cold, she did not dare to hope. She just wanted to get rid of the Feng father and son's bullying, keep her innocence, and eat three meals a day. She was satisfied. So she took the document and said gratefully: "Thank you, Miss Tian!"

Hua Qingfeng proudly glanced at Register Wang and Ye Xiaotian. He slammed the gavel and shouted: "Dismissed!"

Hua Qingfeng happily returned to the back hall. Feng Laifu put away the other document and walked to Ye Qian's side. He hypocritically said: "Qian 'er, you have to go back to your mother's house. Now, you can take away all the daily things in the room. You can go back and see what you need. This old man will ask someone to send it to you."

Ye Qian was not willing to enter the tiger's mouth again. What if this old beast was shameless and took her body. Ye Qian quickly shook her head and said: "No … No need, thank … thank you, father-in-law."

In front of so many people, Feng Laifu couldn't say anything more. He only said in his heart: "Little bitch, do you think you can escape from my palm? I will bring you back in a few days. Your parents and brothers will not dare to object. At that time, you will be delusional if you want to take a step out of the house!"

At the end of the public trial, the onlookers dispersed. Both the plaintiff and the defendant also walked out of the hall. Ye Xiaotian shook his head. His intuition told him that Feng Laifu will not give up. Tian Miaowen's document may not be able to protect this little miss of the Ye family.

He just wanted to go forward and talk to Tian Miaowen, but he saw Tian Miaowen open her folding fan and followed Ye Qian out of the hall. Ye Xiaotian was slightly startled. He looked at Register Wang and followed them out.

Outside the gate of the county government, the Ye family's wife was like a bullied daughter-in-law. She followed her parents and brothers and was about to go home. Tian Miaowen caught up from behind and said: "Ye family's wife!"

Ye Qian turned around and saw that it was Tian Miaowen who helped her. She quickly bowed and said: "Miss Tian."

Feng Laifu and his son, Ye father, Ye mother, and others also stopped. Tian Miaowen smiled and glanced at them. She said to Ye Qian: "Ye family's wife, your current identity is still the daughter-in-law of the Feng family. As for your parents and brothers, according to this litigation master, their affection for you is very thin. Although they are close by blood, they are not related by blood. Won't your future life be awkward? You are still so young, and your appearance is very pitiful. Why don't you find a good family to marry? You will have someone to rely on for a lifetime, so that your family won't be embarrassed. "

"Ah?"

Ye Qian opened her small mouth in amazement. She was somewhat confused by Tian Miaowen's words.

Feng Laifu was furious: "Miss Tian, don't go too far! The document has just been written in the court, and the county magistrate himself is the witness. Do you want to go back on your words? "

Tian Miaowen was surprised: "When did I go back on my words? What I said, every word and sentence is not contrary to the document made by your two families!"

Feng Laifu was furious: "How can this be? You are the county magistrate's niece, so you can invert black and white and be unreasonable? Fellow villagers, all of you come and judge this. The matter has just been decided in the court, and this litigation master Tian is relying on her power to deny it! "

The people didn't go far, but they surrounded them. Register Wang frowned and thought: This young lady doesn't know the gravity. Is she going to show her identity as the young lady of the Tian family and force the Feng family to submit?

Registrar Wang was just about to step forward when his wrist was suddenly grabbed by someone. Register Wang turned his head and saw Ye Xiaotian's eyes were shining with a strange light. He stared at Tian Miaowen with an interesting look and said to him: "Your niece is not a reckless person. Don't move. Let's see what she wants."

Register Wang rolled his eyes and thought: "You want to watch the show, but I don't. If she loses her sense of propriety, people will laugh at me." Even though he thought so, he still stopped in his tracks.

Tian Miaowen listened to Feng Laifu's shouting, and her pretty face sank. She scolded: "Feng Laifu, you are so bold. The ink hasn't even dried yet, and you want to go back on your words. Do you want to eat the board?"

Feng Laifu was so angry that he laughed and said: "What? Litigation Master Tian, do you want to bite back?"

Tian Miaowen put her hands behind her back and said coldly: "Take out the document and see who wants to go back on their words!"

"Good!"

Feng Laifu also threw caution to the wind. Ignoring Register Wang's ugly expression, he took out the document from his bosom and let his son hold it with both hands. He read it out loud: "Today there is Lady Ye. Her name is Qian. She is to be married to Feng Yu. In less than a year, her husband passed away. She was strong and died. Her uncle was not married. Lady Ye is chaste and cannot avoid suspicion. Today, the Feng and Tian families have discussed. The county magistrate Princess Hua will be the witness, and litigation master Tian will be the witness. Lady Ye will be sent to the main family. If she is chaste and does not marry … "

"Huh?"

Feng Laifu suddenly understood. He opened his eyes wide and looked at the document carefully: "Must not marry? Not marry! Must not marry! "

Feng Laifu was dumbstruck. He stood there for a long time without making a sound. He definitely did not read it wrong. It was written "Do not marry", but when he saw it in the court just now, it was clearly "Do not marry!"

The reason why he remembered it so clearly was because when he saw this sentence, he laughed in his heart: "Marry? The Ye family only has three houses and only a few rows of land. They are so poor. How can such a small family be called 'marry'? Does this Tian Daisuke think she is writing about herself? "

However, whether it was' marry 'or' marry ', in short, it meant that she was not allowed to marry again. Using' marry 'just sounded nice. It was just a polite phrase to flatter people. It did not violate the meaning of marriage. It did not mean that if she married into a big family, she would be climbing up to a high branch. It would not violate the 'Must not marry' requirement. So, she did not care. Who knew …

"Impossible! Impossible! "

Feng Laifu panicked. He thought that there was a mistake in the document. He just hurriedly looked at it and did not find anything. He immediately rushed in front of the Ye family's wife and fiercely said: "Take out your copy!"

Although the Ye family's wife was illiterate, she could understand the meaning of 'must not marry'. For a moment, she was surprised and happy. She thought that Tian Miaowen made a mistake. At this time, she was not willing to hand over the 'correct' document in her bosom. She clutched her chest and anxiously looked at Tian Miaowen.

Tian Miaowen smiled and indifferently said: "Take it out and let him see so that he will be convinced."

The Ye family's wife was weak and did not know what to do. Hearing Tian Miaowen say this, she could only reluctantly take out the document from her bosom. Feng Laifu snatched it and quickly opened it. When he looked at the document, his whole body was like a clay statue. He stood there in a daze and did not make a sound.

Ye Xiaotian looked at his face and understood that this document must also be 'must not marry'. Ye Xiaotian curiously looked at Tian Miaowen. He was standing behind Tian Miaowen. At this time, he looked down and saw that Tian Miaowen had her hands behind her back. She was using a handkerchief to gently wipe her thumb. There was a faint ink stain on her right thumb.

Ye Xiaotian's mind flashed like a spark. He recalled the scene in the court when Tian Miaowen rebuked Feng Laifu. She dipped her pen in ink and signed her name. Then, she picked up the document and slowly folded it. He suddenly realized: "This girl … What a cunning little fox!"
