The Life Through Books of the Salted Fish Family

Master Fang washed his face, and immediately regained his energy.

He said that the cold water given by his wife today was just right. Yesterday, the master told him that there was a defendant, Mr. Tian, ​​who was not in good order. He was the Mr. Tian who lived in Huju. What does it mean? I will miss his private money for a while.

Although the matter of borrowing money was exposed by Madam, but in terms of the amount of money, you can still make a fuss...

The master soon found out that Dong Weng was different today, he was full of energy, and he handled the files very quickly.

Snapped!

After three sessions in a row, Mr. Fang felt that he was in good condition, and even the gavel felt just right today.

Great shot!

The master hurried over and whispered: "Dong Weng, Mr. Tong San and Mr. Tian are here."

Master Fang twisted his neck to look at him, and coughed lightly: "Master I'm tired, let's take a rest first."

The master understood and hurriedly withdrew.

...

Yan Lao Er didn't want to come to the Yamen so early, but was taught by the eldest brother again.

The posture should be sufficient.

Yan Laoer said that he was taught, and followed him obediently, standing outside the yamen against the wind and snow.

Yes, it snowed today.

Before dawn, small snowflakes began to fall. The wind was not strong, and it was still a little freezing on the face.

The Liu family came earlier than his family, and occasionally chatted with the neighbors who came to see the excitement.

There is also a group of people around the gate of the yamen to watch the excitement, old and young, men and women, there are quite a few people.

The snow did not stop their enthusiasm.

A group of people obviously know each other, whispering together, and looking at people's faces from time to time.

Mrs. Liu didn't think there was anything wrong, and it was the same when she came to the yamen gate to watch the excitement.

Second Yan was holding back badly.

Yesterday he slept with his elder brother, and today he went out early, so he didn't have time to share Lao Yan's quotations with his wife and daughter.

The trial in the first three courts was very fast. There was a pause in the middle, and then someone was called again. This time, the speed was much slower. Yan Lao Er kept listening, but he didn't think that the case was complicated. He didn't understand why the elder Tried so finely, not as crunchy as before.

The person with the number five card was also called in.

This is a case of assault.

The evidence lies in the person, not only the testimony of the doctor in the hospital, but also the link of the on-site injury examination.

No wonder they were at the top of the queue. If they were later, the scars could not be seen clearly.

It was so easy to wait until the teacher's wife and daughter came over.

Mrs. Tian put on the filial sheepskin coat of her son's family, and brought her daughter-in-law and grandson to come.

The family and the onlookers pretended not to know each other.

"Shout! Liu Daqi, Tian... who in the Tian family should respond to the lawsuit?" The master came to call someone in person, and no one was treated like this.

The voice went from loud to soft, and suddenly dropped, asking very kindly.

"Student Yan Huaiwen, answer on behalf of the Tian family."

The master didn't ask any more questions, but nodded, and led the two of them in.

Mrs. Liu followed a few steps forward, but the yamen servants stopped her.

Mrs. Liu laughed together: "I am Liu Daqi's mother, we know the rules, so we stand close and listen, the two poor masters will make it easier for me."

Yan Laoer took advantage of the situation and said, "We belong to the Tian family, so come closer and listen."

The master turned his head and nodded towards the yamen servant.

The yamen servant backs away.

Mrs. Liu took her daughter-in-law and eldest grandson, and the three of them stepped into the threshold of the county government.

The Tian family has one more person than the Liu family, and their momentum is not weak at all.

Yan Lao Er's attention is not on the hall at this time, but looking around.

He took the initiative to go over to the yamen servant, said a few words in a low voice, stuffed some copper coins, and after a while, he moved out two stools from the small room next to the yamen gate, and found a place to leeward under the veranda, Ask Mrs. Tian and Li Xuemei to sit down.

Mrs. Liu was dumbfounded.

That's not all, Madam Tian and Li Xuemei had just sat down when an elderly woman hurried over.

"Mrs. Tian, ​​our wife invites you to sit in the back office."

"Thank you Madam Fang, we will be fine here." Madam Tian thanked kindly.

Seeing Mrs. Tian's insistence, the woman didn't try to persuade her any more. After she bowed and left, she quickly turned back and asked someone to bring a brazier and put it beside Mrs. Tian.

Yan Laoer was not good at giving money to a woman, so he winked at his daughter.

Yan Yu sent over a small string of copper plates in the name of Mrs. Tian.

These are made by the uncle who taught them to string them in advance, ten copper plates in a string, just to prevent this kind of situation.

As the county magistrate's wife, Mrs. Fang knew that Mrs. Tian was here, so she would definitely send someone to invite her.

Mr. Tian still owes Mr. Fang money, it's not good to give too much, it's all face.

Mrs. Liu felt flustered, as if something was wrong.

no, it won't be...

Yan Laoer gave her a contemptuous look, and the eldest brother said that once people enter the lobby, the play will not be performed, and Liu Jiatang should be prevented from withdrawing the lawsuit.

Snapped!

A sound of gavel brought everyone's attention to it.

Yamen servants in soap uniforms stood on both sides, shouting "no evil" and "no evil" at the same time.

Yan Laoer went to court with his teacher, and he has seen all of these things, and he regrets that Hujuzao's class is not full, and he shouted that no one has the momentum.

Yan Yu heard about it from her father, but it was the first time she saw it in person, so it was extremely strange.

Not to mention, the mixed sound effects really sounded like they were shouting "mighty".

Mr. Fang just took a break in the middle, and went to the back to chat with Mr. Cheng and Mr. Tian. He had a final idea of ​​how this case should be tried.

"Who is in the hall, report your name."

"The villain's name, name, Liu Daqi." Liu Daqi stammered.

Liu Daqi knelt on the ground, not daring to lift his head. He was terrified by the close-range mixed sound from the two teams of yamen servants.

The stick knocked on the ground in a hurry, every time it seemed to knock on his heart.

He didn't dare to look up, so he didn't notice that the person next to him was standing.

"Student, Yan Huaiwen, file a complaint on behalf of Tian's family." Yan Huaiwen took out a piece of complaint and held it in front of him with both hands: "Liu Daqi and his mother have repeatedly slandered and insulted the court officials and their family members. Please punish them severely according to the law. I will be held accountable in court."

Grandpa Fang was expressionless, and his heart was turbulent.

Heart Road: Good guy!

Lao Tian is accepting a student and sending a student to his elder brother. This Yan Hushu is quite ruthless.

Don't complain in the hall, and you are not allowed to drag it down to fight, you have to fight in the hall.

"Yan Huaiwen, you call yourself a student, but you have a reputation?" Master Fang asked nonsense, but this is the same as asking who is in the hall before, it is a necessary process.

"The student is a student of Qishan Mansion in the thirteenth year of Changhe." Yan Huaiwen replied.

Mr. Fang nodded, and said slowly: "Yan Xiucai, let the lawsuit go today. This county will accept your complaint, but things have their own priorities. Now the trial is Liu Daqi's lawsuit against the Tian family for destroying their house."

The master took the certificate from Yan Huaiwen's hand with winking eyes, and put it on the master's desk.

Yan Huaiwen straightened up and gave another salute: "My lord, there is a cause and effect, and there is a priority. Please, my lord, put the public first and then the private, first rectify the national law, and then deal with the people's sentiments."

Master Fang pretended to be embarrassed, frowned and read the complaint carefully, and when he saw the insulting words of the Liu family, his eyes were fixed, he didn't even need to ask, and said directly:

"Liu Daqi, insult the imperial court officials and punish him twenty times with a stick, just to make an example to others."

Liu Daqi was surprised that the old man called the eldest brother of the Yan family a scholar. Didn't he say that he was a member? Why did you become a scholar again!

Liu Daqi was still in a daze, but Mrs. Liu shuddered and rushed forward regardless, "Master, Master, that old man Tian is not an official, no!"

"I...I scolded Mrs. Tian, ​​not Mrs. Tian!" Mrs. Liu cried, "Why is his family an official, why is he an official..."

Yan Laoer kindly explained to her: "My teacher is the county magistrate of Huju, the seventh rank, and the teacher's wife is an official family member. The husband and wife are one, and everyone is scolded the same. This board, your family is not wronged."

Mrs. Liu was dizzy, and her eyes blurred.

Mr. Fang said in his heart that if it hadn't been for Cheng Tongpan's warning not to make a big fuss, based on the words of the woman outside the hall, it would be another 20 boards. Women are no better than men, and this board will cost half your life.

The errands in the yamen have good eyesight, not to mention the soap class who hangs around in the court all year round, so he has already understood the feeling of it.

The old man took a break twice, the teacher ran in and out again and again, the servants around the wife came out twice, the Tian family sat in front of the yamen, there was a brazier at their feet...they were not blind !

Mrs. Liu was held up by two yamen servants, preventing her from going any further.

She understood, regretful and hated in her heart.

What I regret is that after collecting the money at that time, I should have sent Sanqiu to Tian's house. That old Tiantou is an official, Qipin! Just like the old man in the hall!

What she hates is her greedy son and daughter-in-law, a pair of prodigals!

The Zaoban Yamen servants on both sides immediately grabbed Liu Daqi like a chicken, and retreated to the side of the entrance of the court. Once the bench was put down and a few water and fire sticks were set up, he lay down in a suitable posture.

Crackling and crackling started.

Accompanied by Liu Daqi's cry of pain and grievances, the yamen servants who were counting beside him stretched out their voices, "One, two, three...twenty."

Count very carefully, not bad at all.

There was a commotion outside the yamen.

"Slapped?! Hurry up, let's go, Liu Daqi was spanked?"

"I heard it was the Liu family who scolded the officials. Could it be that old man Tian really..."

"Could I have heard it wrong? Hey, I said you people, how can you squeeze so hard? What are you looking at when you squeeze to the front? Tell me!"

The talents in Xiao'an Village are not allowed.

If you have the ability, you squeeze yourself to the front.

Liu Daqi, who finished hitting the board, was thrown over.

Yan Huaiwen is not finished yet.

He took out another petition and presented it respectfully and politely.

"My lord, the student will sue the Liu family again for defrauding the Liu family of money by selling the child, with a total of five taels of silver.

The youngest son of the Liu family, who was born short of birth, was often sick in four seasons, thin and easy to break. The Liu family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law visited the door several times and begged bitterly. Mrs. Tian felt sorry for him and decided to take him in and raise him. The Liu family asked for five taels of money, but Mrs. Tian gave him nothing One's own money is for borrowing...

Later, the Liu family broke the promise and refused to return the money. This behavior was unbearable, and it was really a fraud.

This is a student complaint, please take a look at it. "

The master took the case again and put it on Dong Weng's desk.

Master Fang frowned even deeper.

He even lied to Mrs. Tian's money? !

How poor is that guy in Laotian? He bent down and bowed his head to borrow money from them. What kind of money does his wife have, and if she has money, can she live in that alley? For so many years, no one knew that she was the wife of a dignified seventh-rank official, so one can imagine what kind of life she lived.

Just like that, you guys are too embarrassed to lie to her? !

Like the previous complaint, this one also details the reasons.

Mr. Fang became more and more angry as he watched.

This is not cheating, this is going to eat the wealth of Lao Tian's family!

"Liu Daqi, I want to ask you, is it true that Mrs. Tian was defrauded of money?"

"My lord, I am wronged! I am wronged!" Liu Daqi was in so much pain that he felt that the stick seemed to be pierced into his bones, and he kept shouting for injustice while trembling.

Mrs. Liu yelled frantically outside: "My lord, we didn't take the money, we didn't take it! It's their nonsense, nonsense!"

She made up her mind that she couldn't admit to anything about it.

"Who is making noise in the hall?" Elder Fang asked.

The master said: "It's Liu Daqi's mother."

"Bring it to the hall."

Mrs. Liu is much better than her son.

Kneel down and kowtow three times to the Grand Master first.

"Mrs. Liu, the Tian family sued your family for defrauding five taels of money. Is there such a thing?"

"My lord, no! Our family is a dutiful family, how can we cheat people of money, that Mrs. Tian, ​​Mrs. Bu Tian wanted to buy our Sanqiu, but we didn't sell it, and we didn't take any money from her family." Mrs. Liu bit He refused to admit it, and secretly stabbed Liu Daqi twice.

Liu Daqi cried out in pain, and also gritted his teeth: "My lord, there really isn't one! I'm wronged, my lord!"

The mother and son of the Liu family kept crying out for injustice.

Master Fang was a little hesitant, whether to play a few more boards.

Yan Huaiwen spoke again: "My lord, the silver taels Mrs. Tian borrowed from others are official silver, and there will be engravings later. The Liu family has not spent a lot of money recently, so the silver taels must still be with the mother and son of the Liu family."

Master Fang said: "Search."

Two servants came to search Mrs. Liu's body, and two other yamen servants searched Liu Daqi's body.

All the bits and pieces on the two of them were turned over in the hall.

All the silver coins were placed on the Grand Master's desk as evidence in court.

Master Fang looked at it carefully, and said, "There is no official bank."

Yan Huaiwen didn't change his face, and said: "It's probably because they spent it."

"Yan Xiucai, there is no physical evidence, but is there any witness?" Elder Fang said.

Yan Huaiwen: "No." He sincerely apologized: "The student is reckless, and wants to withdraw the complaint, and I beg the adults to agree."

"Yes." Master Fang returned the petition to him.

With a light cough, he asked, "Liu Daqi, you sued the Tian family for smashing your house, didn't you?"

Mrs. Liu doesn't want to sue anymore, but Old Man Tian is actually an official, how can they fight with an official.

She was thinking about how to speak.

Over there, Liu Daqi said according to what they had discussed at home: "My lord, our house has been smashed and smashed, the door is broken, the stove is broken, and the iron pot has a hole in the boss. By the way, there is also a tank. , and the chicken, and...we didn't move..."

"Yan Xiucai, the Liu family sued the Tian family for smashing, is there such a thing?"

"My lord, the matter of the smashing was caused by a child in the family. I am willing to pay compensation out of righteous indignation, but... please make the decision. If the Liu family insults Mrs. Tian, ​​please apologize first. The Tian family should bear the responsibility. I won't shirk." Yan Huaiwen said surongly.

"Liu Daqi, Mrs. Liu, can the two of you hear clearly? It is really wrong to insult officials and family members. I sincerely apologize to you two.

With regard to the matter of compensation, the Tian family has accepted that the case can be closed. "

Grandpa Fang slapped the gavel, and shouted loudly: "Retire."

The master took the file from the clerk and handed it to Liu's mother and son.

"Liu Daqi, make your fingerprints."

Liu Daqi asked stupidly: "This... is this the end?"

The master smiled and said: "You sue the Tian family for smashing, and the Tian family admits it, and is willing to pay. What else do you want? Your family won this case, so hurry up and print your fingerprints."

Mrs. Liu slumped on the ground.

Muttering in his mouth: "It's over...it's over..."

Change first and then change~

I was sleepy again during the day, and I didn't get over it. After sleeping, it was too late to wake up~

This chapter has been revised several times~

Try to be reasonable, it's about trial, and I'm not a professional in history, so don't pick on mistakes.

The next chapter explains why Lao Yan handled it like this~

They did win the case sued by the Liu family, hehe, so there is nothing wrong with the title~(*▽*)~
