The black-bellied peasant girl is reborn, and her weird relatives are mad

September 9th is the Double Ninth Festival. The autumn wind blows in the evening and the sun is high in the sky.

Jiang Muxia got up early and was carried on a ox cart by Jiang Yuzhou to the Li family.

The group pulled the prepared cloth to the county.

The market is located on West Street in Suanzao County, with shops lined up on both sides of the street.

On market days, street vendors would arrive early on both sides of West Street to occupy advantageous positions, and the government would assign personnel to be responsible for maintaining order on market days.

Li Jiufu took the complaint and went to the county government office first, and the four brothers took Jiang Muxia to the market.

From a distance, they saw a young man in a dark grey coat waving at them and shouting, "Miss Jiang, come here quickly."

It was Tang Si whom they met yesterday. He had taken a good seat early and was anxiously waiting for them to come over.

"I have reserved a seat. You guys decide how to arrange it. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first." Tang Si brought people to the reserved seat and left in a hurry.

Today is the Double Ninth Festival, and there are a lot of people coming to the market. Li Jiufu rushed over after handing in the complaint.

The brothers set up their stalls, each holding a piece of cloth and spreading around the stalls, and began to shout, "Come and have a look, we are from the Li family workshop in Donggang Village. Today is a festival, and there are free samples of cloth. The quantity is limited, first come first served."

When everyone heard that there was something to be won for free, they immediately surrounded the stall.

Li Jiufu did not distribute the cloth one by one. He held up a piece of linen and showed it to the crowd one by one. Then he and Li Jili each pulled up a corner and tried their best to pull it to both sides. No matter how hard they pulled, the cloth did not have the slightest tear.

Li Jifu shouted loudly: "Fellow villagers, you can see that neither of us can tear it apart. If you have any doubts, you can come up and try the strength of the cloth. Is there anyone who wants to try it?"

As expected, two burly men came up from the crowd and said, "Master, we have heard of the Li family workshop. The goods are always good. How about we two brothers give it a try?"

Li Jili handed the cloth to two people. They took one side each and pulled it from the edge to the middle. The cloth remained the same as before, without any deformation.

The two laughed, "It's really solid. Master, can we each get one?"

"Of course, you two come here and sign the contract first." Li Jixiang took the two people to the table next to them and handed them over to Jiang Muxia.

With the leader in charge, Li Jiufu raised the material in his hand and shouted, "This piece of material in my hand is a batch of new cloth produced in the workshop recently. Now there are 20 sizes that can be made into ready-made clothes. They will be distributed to 20 people, but these 20 people must sign a contract with us and come to the same place at the next market to tell me their true feelings after trying it out."

He took out another piece of silk cloth and said, "There is also silk cloth, in ten portions, with the same rules as for linen cloth. If anyone accepts our request, they can come forward and sign the contract before receiving the cloth."

In a blink of an eye, all the cloth was collected. Li Jifu repeatedly reminded them, "The contract has your name and address. After ten days, anyone who comes to inform us will be given an additional 20 coins."

As expected, everyone was vying for the free gift, without the doubts they had expected.

The scene was lively and harmonious. There is a saying that goes "Extreme joy leads to sorrow", and everyone was having a happy time.

An inappropriate voice sounded in the crowd, "Isn't this the boss of the Li family workshop? I heard that there was a problem with the quality of the linen cloth in your workshop and it was rejected by everyone. Did you go out on your own to attract business?"

Looking in the direction of the voice, the speaker was a middle-aged man of medium build wearing a dark straight-collared robe, looking at Li Jiufu with a malicious smile on his face.

Li Jifu replied with a smile, "Manager Ye, your linen workshop has just started, and you are not watching over it in the workshop. Why did you come to the market? Do you have no market? Or did you steal my business and come out to hang out because you are too proud of yourself?"

Manager Ye was very surprised. How did he know his identity?

After learning that his own workshop was framed, Li Jiufu checked all the workshops in the county one by one and determined that it was the newly opened workshop of Ye Sihui in Zaoye Town that was responsible. Only their brother-in-law was a senior official in the county, second only to the county magistrate and above everyone else.

"What is the young man from the Li family saying? I don't understand. I just heard that there was a problem with your goods, so I asked out of kindness. You don't need to take it to heart." Manager Ye smiled with a forced smile, as if he was enjoying a good show.

A fat woman in the crowd asked in confusion, "Excuse me, this steward, what's wrong with his goods?"

Manager Ye smiled and answered hesitantly, "I say... not so good, but it's actually nothing, the owner is still here."

"Manager Ye's hesitant look is just trying to make the aunties, uncles and grandpas present believe that there is something wrong with my goods. He has a really vicious mind." A clear girl's voice came from the crowd.

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a stern-faced girl walking towards them. She was wearing a long green skirt and the shiny pigtails behind her head swayed slightly as she walked. She squeezed through the crowd and came in front of Li Jiufu. She stood straight with her tall and thin body and stared coldly at Butler Ye.

Jiang Muxia looked at Butler Ye with a half-smile, and said with great momentum, "My family has already reported the case to the police. I think that within two days, the evil deeds you have done will surface."

Butler Ye laughed disdainfully. The county chief official was the master's brother-in-law, so even if they tried their best, they couldn't find out the truth.

Although he felt contempt in his heart, what he said was, "Very good. I look forward to your early redress." After saying that, he left.

"Fellow villagers, we have just tested it and there is no problem with our fabric. The Li family workshop has been open for seven years and has never had any quality problems. Please trust us and feel free to try it. If there is a problem, we are willing to compensate you tenfold."

When everyone learned that there was a problem with his goods, some people left and some were whispering, clearly losing trust in Jiang Muxia's words.

Everyone is waiting and watching, and no one is willing to take the first step.

"Fellow villagers, I am the newly appointed judge in the county. I am in charge of the Li family's case. Now I have determined that there are problems with the quality of the goods. Someone is jealous and deliberately framed them. In front of everyone, I promise that in three days, I will give justice to the Li family workshop." Tang Zhongbai came to the stall at some point and talked to everyone. His official status helped to dispel everyone's doubts about the quality of the fabrics in the Li family workshop.

"Fellow villagers, the Li family workshop has been selling in our Suanzao County for seven or eight years. I have never heard of any problems with their products. I believe what this gentleman said, and I also believe in the Li family workshop. We must not let the bad guys get away with it. If the Li family workshop goes bankrupt, those bad guys will raise the prices. In the end, won't we ordinary people be the ones who suffer?" The fat woman was impassioned and a little emotional. She turned around and asked Tang Zhongbai, "Does that mean that we can safely take the fabrics on their stall?"

"Of course. However, after you receive the materials for trial, if you want to get more compensation by making false accusations, and I find out, I will punish you severely." After Tang Zhongbai gave them an affirmative answer, he also informed those with ulterior motives of the consequences.

"Don't worry, sir. We are not petty people who only care about money."

"Mrs. Yun is right. We also believe in the Li family workshop." Everyone echoed and surrounded the stall again.

In just a quarter of an hour, the distribution was completed, and Li Jiufu breathed a sigh of relief, finally the problem was solved successfully.

After he finished his work, he came over to thank Tang Zhongbai, "Thank you, Lord Tang, for helping me out of this urgent situation again."

Tang Zhongbai waved his hand, "You're welcome. This is what I should do. I think I will give you a satisfactory answer in three days rather than ten days."

Li Jifu's frown finally relaxed, a smile appeared on his face, and he bowed deeply to him, "Thank you, sir."

"As long as you do your job honestly, I will never let you be framed without reason. If I cannot clear your name, it means I am incompetent and I will be unworthy of the trust of the people of the whole county." Tang Zhongbai looked serious and his eyes were bright.

He went to Suanzao County specifically to serve as the judge, not just to play around.
