Chapter 36 Be My Woman
As soon as Shen Li's words fell, the people watching the excitement outside the door were in an uproar.
Although I have never heard of it, it seems to make sense.
Liao Wenbin lost his composure one after another. Looking at the dark crowd outside the house, he always wanted to make up for some face.
Liao Wenbin thought for two seconds, then cleared his throat and said.
"But what you said...for example, the crime of defamation may not necessarily be established.
Even this official has heard that your house is not clean. "
As soon as these words came out, the conversation of the crowd outside the door changed again.
"That is, look at her stepmother, she is so beautiful, can she stand loneliness?"
"And the man next to her, they are so close, who knows what the relationship is."
The person who was arrested just now became stunned when he heard this.
"That's right, am I wrong? If you want to punish her, you have to punish her for adultery!"
Before the man finished speaking, Gu Sheng clenched his fists tightly. The veins on his arms were bulging, but he held back. After all, the current situation is difficult enough for Zhong Ning. If he does something else , not according to their wishes.
When Shen Li heard this, she was so angry that she almost vomited blood.
"You said you heard it. Is there any evidence? Let me ask you how adultery is defined."
Liao Wenbin didn't know what to ask, so he had to ask a lawyer to answer for him.
"Prostitution is prohibited, men and women are sincere, husbands send them, and killing them is innocent."
After hearing this, Shen Li said calmly, but loudly.
"There is a premise here, it is a married woman, and my mother is single, even if she really wants to remarry, is it a crime?
Is there a rule in our Dazou law that widows cannot remarry? "
Liao Wenbin was stunned. It is indeed possible to remarry, but...
"There are still very few women who remarry. Keeping chastity is a matter of course, and the imperial court also supports it. It will also issue chastity memorial archways to prove that women are steadfast.
Like you said..."
Shen Li interrupted her speech.
"I don't care what other people are. Anyway, if my mother wants to remarry, I will support it. Besides, it is her freedom to associate with whom or not.
You who have nothing to do to chew other people's tongues, put the blame on others according to the dirty thoughts in your heart, and tell right and wrong with empty words.
I hope the county magistrate can dispose of this group of garbage according to law! "
Shen Li's speech is well-founded and well-organized. People don't care about their mother's remarriage, so what can others say.
Liao Wenbin was speechless, and was stunned by Shen Li several times in a row. He was in a very bad mood, and even the few people who were watching the hall were not pleasing to the eye.
He greeted several yamen servants.
"These rumormongers will each be imprisoned with 30 boards, and then lose money."
After finishing speaking, Liao Wenbin seemed not to want to entangle with Shen Li anymore, so he left directly.
Looking at the person who was still talking nonsense just now, Shen Li's anger remained undiminished when he pleaded for mercy.
Deserved it!
Even if they are punished, the words they speak are like splashed water, and the damage to people is irreversible.
After Zhong Ning returned to the mansion, he locked himself in the room without saying a word.
Shen Li lingered at the door, vaguely heard the crying inside, just wanted to go in to comfort her, but thought of Zhong Ning's forbearance along the way just now, probably because he didn't want to explode in front of her.
She sighed.
"well…"
Zhong Ning huddled in the corner of the bed, covered his face with the quilt and cried, his crying shoulders trembled.
She felt wronged and sad, but she didn't know who to tell.
In confusion, she heard someone open the door and come in.
Zhong Ning didn't dare to raise her head, thinking it was Shen Li who came in, she wiped her tears with the quilt carelessly, and when she was about to raise her head, she was suddenly hugged.
Almost at the same time, a deep male voice sounded in her ear.
"Stop guarding the Shen family, and be my woman."
