Chapter 473 Complaint (two chapters in one)
As soon as Mrs. Liu entered the house, she asked her daughter-in-law, "Did someone come from the Tian family just now? Who is it?"
Mrs. Liu has been staring at it, and hurriedly said: "Mother, don't worry, just go in with two girls, the older one is about ten years old, and the younger one is about three or four years old. Those guys sent things in and left. There are many cars and things, and they are not worth much, mother, you will know when you go and have a look."
Mrs. Liu really went.
lingered in front of Tian's house for a while.
came back and said: "There are a lot of food, pots, pans, and chopsticks. There are cats, dogs, and chicken coops... It looks like they are from the countryside."
Mrs. Liu said: "That family is well-dressed, don't they slap their faces to pretend to be fat?"
The three members of the Yan family came to pay a visit to Mrs. Tian, and changed out of the sheepskin clothes on purpose. The clothes were a bit ostentatious, and they were wearing cotton clothes changed by Nanny Rong. Yes, soft and fluffy, you can tell at a glance that they are new clothes made this year.
Grandma Liu didn't look like it, she touched the invitation card in her arms.
Glancing at his yard again, he said, "No matter what the origin of his house is, it would be wrong to smash us up. The scholar who wrote the petition said, we will definitely win."
Liu Daqi finally boiled hot water on the broken bricks in the yard, Mrs. Liu shared the steamed buns, and the whole family ate the pickles.
Yan Yu heard it right, it is steamed buns with coarse grains and mixed noodles.
…
Yan's second son left one family and entered another.
He came to the door carrying his things, and everyone was kind.
The ceremony is neither light nor heavy, four salted duck eggs per family, and a large piece of frozen tofu.
Yan's second son was very polite, saying that his family had just moved here and that he would be grateful to his neighbors for care in the future.
People asked him what he did, and he said that his main business was studying, and he was ashamed that he hadn't obtained a degree in the exam.
Ask where his family came from, and he said that his hometown, Qishan Mansion, suffered from a drought, and fled all the way to Huju.
Inquired about his relationship with the Tian family, he looked sincere, and told the truth, he worshiped the old man Tian as a master, and learned the craft... After a serious ceremony, it is okay to call the master, and there is nothing wrong with calling the father directly.
How plain it is when you go in, how enthusiastic you are when you come out.
"Auntie, look at you, I've brought it all and you just put it away. If you make it yourself, I'll be sad if you push me again, but you don't like the craftsmanship of our country people?" The joke on Yan's second face came immediately .
"In the middle, the aunt will keep it, and we will live next to each other in the future, and often come to the aunt's house to sit."
"It will be indispensable in the future. When my tofu stall is set up, my aunt will definitely support me."
"Hey, it goes without saying that I didn't buy it at someone's house. It's so convenient from my house to yours, and it saves my legs."
"Auntie, about renting a place in front of your house..."
"If you want to rent it or not, you can use it if you want it."
"That won't work. Our size is one size. If you don't charge money, I don't have the nerve to occupy the land of my aunt's house. I won't have the face to enter my aunt's door in the future."
"As you please, then aunt... just accept it?"
"That's great, what about the number I said?"
"become!"
"Then we're done?"
"It's settled."
"Okay, I'll take all the money with me, just wait for the sweet words from the aunt!"
"Oh, you young man, you can do things neatly."
"Hey, it's decided one day earlier, our business is ready to open!"
"That's the reason! Do it well, and if my aunt's family eats tofu in the future, I will buy yours."
"Come on!"
…
Yan Yu rushed into the city before dark, and on the last trip back, she also took Uncle Qi and Master Lu back. This time, she came in a car, she rode a donkey, and Aunt Rong drove an ox cart.
There were few things to pull this trip, mainly living animals at home.
As soon as she entered, Yan Yu secretly gave Madam Rong an order to bind this small courtyard into her family's temporary residence.
Only in this way can Nanny Rong recognize it automatically, making it easier for her to handle it.
After seeing Mrs. Tian, Nanny Rong started to work.
His eyes were full of life, running in and out of the kitchen, this end served Li Xuemei and Mrs. Tian with steaming fresh milk tea, and the other end had already put the chickens, ducks and sheep in their place, feeding them for the next night. Feed, and then go to the room opposite the main house, help the big girl, no, Qian Chu, wipe the inside and outside, clean out the kang holes in all the rooms, add new charcoal to go in and start burning.
The stove was not enough, so she lit the two carbon cartridges she brought, one for haggis soup, and the other for baking bread. The stove in the kitchen cleaned the ashes, and put the stew pot that was constantly burning at home on it.
Waiting for Nanny Rong to bring the bread into the room, and after a while, a basin of warm water came in to signal Li Xuemei and Mrs. Tian to wash their hands and eat.
Mrs. Tian agrees with Li Xuemei's description of this lady Rong as very capable.
Although I can't speak, my thoughts are as thin as a hair.
Mrs. Tian took the opportunity to go out, saw Rong Nai working for a while, and pulled her aside.
"Xiao Er's mother is pregnant, thanks to you taking care of the family, don't worry too much, Mrs. Rong, this is my heart, and I will trouble you to pay more attention to this family in the future." Mrs. Tian handed it to Nanny Rong. A piece of broken silver.
Nurse Rong smiled kindly, and accepted the money generously, a blessing.
Mrs. Tian entered the room and said to Li Xuemei: "The lady Rong that your family invited must have a very simple background. She is so capable...and she can write some words?"
Li Xuemei: "Yes, there are many mistakes, but I do write a few."
Mrs. Tian thought for a while, and said: "I have heard people say that servants from rich families were sent out, and they were given dumb drugs for fear of talking outside..."
"I don't know if she was born like this or... Eldest brother said something similar to you, no matter what her status was before, she is alone now..." Li Xuemei said again: "Miss Rong treats our family very well, she is very responsible, our family I really can't do without her, brother also wants to keep her at home, we asked Miss Rong, and she is willing too."
There was a knock on the door outside.
Gou Zhu stood up and pulled the door open.
After Yan's second child came in, he plugged in again.
"God, I'm exhausted." He still didn't dare to complain loudly, for fear that the neighbors would hear him again, so he hurried to the kitchen while whispering, "Miss Rong, is there any water?"
Nurse Rong poured him a big bowl.
Yan's second child gulped, wiped his mouth, looked at the pots one by one, and asked, "When is the meal?"
Nurse Rong gestured towards him, it's now.
Yan Erle's teeth are all exposed.
Wait for the whole family to climb onto the kang and cross-legged around the kang table naturally. Mrs. Tian's face seemed to be shining, and her eyes were crooked and full of smiles.
At home, it has never been so lively.
The Yan family has no rules when it comes to eating.
Yan's second son didn't pretend to be special, what's there to pretend, and living under the same roof in the future, who can not know who.
He eats and drinks while working in vain.
"Ahahahaha..." Yan Yu couldn't stop laughing.
"Father... you are so good at fooling around, you actually said that you learned crafts from Master, ah hahahaha... what kind of crafts did Master teach you... hiccup..." Yan Yu hiccupped as soon as he laughed, covering his mouth and trembling non-stop.
Yan Er Er glared at her.
"Master, these are all words to fool them."
Mrs. Tian smiled and shook her head, expressing her indifference.
…
The door of Liu’s house was just so open, how could they not see Yan Lao Er carrying things from house to house.
As soon as Yan's second child returned, Mrs. Liu took action.
How many years have you lived as a neighbor, besides, there is nothing to hide.
Mrs. Liu inquired. The surname of the family is Yan. They are not relatives of the Tian family, but they are closer than relatives.
She regretted so much in her heart, why didn't she expect that the Yan family, who came from famine, would seek camp.
At the same time, I felt a little bit unwilling, if it weren't for the Yan family, the things of the Tian family, and the old man Tian's errands, all belonged to her family...
Scholars are the tofu sellers in the countryside, pretending to be garlic!
The next morning, Mrs. Liu went out with Liu Daqi.
There are rules at the gate of the yamen. It is not that whoever wants to sue can sue when he goes.
You have to write the certificate first, and hand it in on the day when the master sits in court to release the lawsuit.
But in fact, the person who submitted the petition had to go to the Yamen to collect the number plate on the first day of the petition. There was a special clerk to examine their petition.
It is the lightest case to fight with neighbors like the Liu family.
According to each master's habit or before or after.
At present, the surname of Fang, who sits in the Yongning County Yamen, has been in office for seven years. He has not moved his place for seven years. He has already lost his temper and is not diligent in official affairs. People, Cheng Tong judge was watching very closely, Fangzhi County had to change the case to release the case every three days.
Guanzhou is a feudal city of the king of England, and the palace is in the city. The prince loves the people like a son, and the guards patrol day and night. There are very few criminals in Yongning.
Master Fang likes to cut through messes quickly. He puts difficult cases first and puts simple ones behind.
The clerks in the yamen know the habits of the elders best. They scan the complaint form with their eyes and know where to put it.
Regardless of the fact that Mrs. Liu is the head of the Liu family, Liu Daqi has to come forward for lawsuits.
He carefully put the certificate on the table, and then he was dumbfounded not knowing what to do.
While reading the complaint, the clerk randomly tapped twice on the table with his fingers.
Seeing that there was no response from the person who handed over the certificate, the petty official raised his head, his brows were tightly knit, and he scolded, "Do you understand the rules?"
Liu Daqi was taken aback, quickly took out the two coins he had prepared, and put them on the table respectfully.
The little official wiped it with his sleeve, and the silver disappeared.
Eyelid drooping: "Wait."
Liu Daqi quickly backed away.
Granny Liu greeted her and asked, "How are you doing, son?"
Liu Daqi wiped his sweat and said, "Just wait."
In order to find out more about the way here, Mrs. Liu even gave the scholar who wrote the petition an extra penny.
"Mother, this lawsuit is too expensive." Liu Daqi was so distressed that he asked for money when he wrote the petition, and asked for money when he handed over the petition, saying that if the guards went to arrest the Tian family, he would have to give money...
"We will definitely win, and we can get all these back." Mrs. Liu said confidently.
After receiving the certificates, the small official began to call out his name and issue a number plate.
Mrs. Liu took the number plate, looked it over and over, and said happily: "That's enough, this is enough, son, let's go, go back, and go to that Mrs. Tian!"
…
Grandma Liu didn't go directly to Tian's house, but first made a big noise in the alley, and after a while, people around here spread the word that the Liu family wanted to sue the Tian family, so the Liu family would sue the Tian family! He even got the wooden sign of the yamen!
"Aiyo, Mrs. Liu is really capable, sue as soon as you say, tsk tsk..."
"The Tian family will be in trouble this time. When they go to the gate of the yamen, they must not peel off their skin."
"The Liu family is too ruthless. She's still a child. It's wrong to break something in her house. She just needs to pay some money, so she's going to sue her."
Mrs. Liu stood at the door of her house, with her hips crossed and her neck stretched, and she shouted in the direction of Tian's house: "Why can't I sue, why can't I, my family has a grievance, and I don't want to ask the old man to judge it. Take a look at our house." Isn’t the Tian family stubborn? If you don’t pay money or pay a gift, let us go to sue. Listen to the lady, let’s sue. We will go to court tomorrow. If the old man Tian doesn’t come back, your man will have to go. Didn't you recognize the master, like your own son, then you have to carry this lawsuit if you don't want to! What about that sharp-mouthed kid, come again..."
Yan's second son came out, still holding the sheep.
Walked up to Mrs. Liu and asked her, "Arrears tomorrow? Did you get the number plate?"
Mrs. Liu proudly took out the wooden sign. Yan Er Er wanted to read the words on it, but Mrs. Liu held her neck tightly and refused to read it.
Yan Er had no choice but to ask again: "What number are we in line for?"
Mrs. Liu froze a little. The scholar who wrote the petition said that the number plates were in order. After recalling them carefully, the servants called out their names to the wooden plates one by one, but they didn't say which number they were in.
And the writing on it... she doesn't understand.
Yan Laoer saw the crux at a glance, and said very kindly: "It's okay if you are at the front, and it will be your turn later, if you are at the back, we have to stand outside for a long time, it's so cold... In this way, you let me see the number written on it, we have an idea in mind, we can go there on time, and we won’t suffer.”
Mrs. Liu stared at him for a while, and asked, "Aren't you afraid? If you make a deal with our family now, pay some more money to let our family live in peace. It's not impossible to discuss with our neighbors."
She made sure that she would have to pay a lot of money to go to court tomorrow, such as money to buy paper and ink, and the yamen servant with a stick would have to pay whether he beat the board or not. First, the yamen servants who brought them in can't run errands for nothing. After the lawsuit, they have to imprint their fingerprints, and the imprints are not in vain. They have to be paid...
Mrs. Liu can understand clearly what the lawsuit is for, for money, if the Tian family is willing to give money, then it will be private, and she will ask Daqi to give the case back, although it will still cost money, which is less than going to court.
If you don't go to court after receiving the wooden card, you have to pull it out to beat the board. Five boards and four coins, three coins are given to the yamen servants who play the boards, so that they can be lighter, and one money is given to the person who takes the board. To make a living, her family's Daqi is still healthy, and there is no need for replacements, only three qian silver is enough.
In ancient times, the elders and village chiefs first mediated the lawsuit, and then the magistrate’s yamen, the magistrate’s yamen, appealed to each other, and they could not leapfrog the lawsuit~
The text has been simplified, and there are also the procedures for releasing the notice, and the settings of the yamen are all private settings of the house, so don’t be serious~
Actually going to court costs more than this, so we won’t write them one by one.
The update time estimate for the next chapter was wrong, I got up late at home, so I will watch it in the afternoon (〃\'▽\'〃)
