Chen Qing was driving the bullock cart, followed by a group of villagers watching jokes.

Before approaching the former residence, Miao Rencui was blocked in the middle of the road with her hips akimbo, mocking mockingly, "I thought it was some kind of plague god that made Chenjiagou go crazy, isn't this the third young lady who married into a noble family?" How come you happened to pass by to visit your short-lived parents’ graves? Or did you know that the Chinese New Year was coming, so you rushed to pay respects to grandpa and grandma?”

When Chen Qing saw Miao Rencui's face, she became angry, especially when she belittled her parents in words, which aroused Chen Qing's anger.

Guessing that he knew what Chen Ping had done, he deliberately blocked his son's misfortune, so he scolded in a strong tone, "A good dog doesn't get in the way! Didn't you come to ask for the rations of grandpa and grandma early in the morning? Why don't you see the two old people now?" , but I saw you, a shrew, with a round waist? Could it be that in the name of being filial to grandpa and grandma, all of them got into your stomach in private?"

"Bah~ You dare to say filial piety even if that little thing is not enough for chickens, ducks, and beasts to stuff your teeth? Shit! The Liang family is a big family, and you have the nerve to say that if you give me such a little food, you will send my mother back!" Miao Rencui Pinching his little fingers, he spat with disdain in his eyes.

"It seems that it really got into the stomach of a beast!" Chen Qing didn't want to talk nonsense with her, so he led the ox cart and rushed.

"You're a little bastard! My old lady raised you so big, and she's so pushy about ordering food, and I don't even look at how much rice noodles your brother and sister ate at my house when they were young!" Miao Rencui reached out and grabbed Chen Qing, intending to settle the matter with him. A few slaps.

"Get out~ Don't be so fucking shameless! I don't have the time to argue with shrews. Don't blame me, Chen Qing, if you get in a hurry." Chen Qing slapped Miao Rencui away, rounding his fists to threaten her.

Younger brother marries, treat it as a woman, regardless of seniority, they are now equal in status, so no one is bullying the other.Especially when Chen Qing went out and broke up with her, even if there was a real fight, no one would say that Chen Qing was disrespectful and rebellious.

Miao Rencui was taken aback by Chen Qing's ferocious expression, and she wanted to cry for sympathy as soon as she turned her eyes, but as soon as there was a quarrel here, Boss Chen rushed over in a hurry, grabbed Miao Rencui and yelled, "I don't think so!" How can it not be shameful enough? Go home and stay!"

Chen Qing glanced at Boss Chen with a complicated expression. This 40-year-old man now has full hair, and the wrinkles deepened due to weight loss are like dry bark cracking deep grooves on his face.

Boss Chen didn't suddenly become reasonable, but he was ashamed to see Chen Qing.Before begging for rations, he was thinking of threatening, and now he would not dare to let his parents show up... Regardless of the reason, Miao Rencui took most of the rations by himself, causing his parents to suffer from hunger and emaciation. .

If it wasn't for the fact that the parents were old and knew that time was short, they would have saved most of the rations for the eldest son, or else even Boss Chen would be too hungry to walk right now.

Chen Qing didn't bother to ask about his family's affairs, so she passed Mr. Chen and went straight to the old house.

Chen Ping was so worried that he turned around in circles in the room, hiding and tucking away all the looted objects, for fear that Chen Qing would come to the door and find evidence of his crime.

"What are you afraid of! In the worst case, give it back to him!" Liu Daidi gritted her teeth and pulled out her jade, threw it into the box and slapped it on the table with a "bang".

As soon as these objects were brought back from Chen Ping, Liu Daidi knew that she would suffer.He was not afraid that Chen Ping was too lazy to do things, but he was afraid that he would not follow the right path. Seeing that everything was not what a farmer should have, he knew without questioning that he must have done something bad.

However, Chen Ping's pictures are all of him and his son, and the looted objects are the baby's clothes and bedding besides food.

Several of the most valuable items were also exchanged for this jade set. Looking at the things she couldn't ask for, the reprimand she wanted to say had already turned into deep emotion, which made Liu Daidi choke up and was speechless for a while.

A man who is willing to rob his house in order to support himself will be content even if he dies!If that Chen Qing really insisted on holding on, even if he took the blame, he would not let Chen Ping have trouble.

A dying person, why bother to drag your husband down?As long as he and his son can live well in the future, what else should he be afraid of?

"Hurry up and put it away! Do you want to kill Grandpa?" Chen Ping rushed over angrily, took Yushi into his arms, and lost his temper with Liu Daidi.

"Husband... the matter has come to this point, the big deal is that I will fight for you, even if Daidi dies, I won't drag you down." Liu Daidi pulled her husband emotionally, and discussed with pleading words, "Let's return everything to him. If he really I wanted to sue you, and I would have revealed your identity as early as that day."

"What a fart! Do you still want to live?" Chen Ping slapped his hand away angrily, and widened his eyes angrily.The little brother couldn't do without this thing, so he held Yushi tightly in his hands like his lifeblood.

"...Think about it!" Liu Daidi looked at her husband with tears and a smile, and murmured in a choked voice, "If you want me to live, I will live, and I will never go to see the king of hell if I die."

"If you know, don't hide it quickly! Damn, when the white-eyed wolf comes, you just pretend you don't know anything, do you know how to act according to the face of the master?" Patiently urged, "What are you doing in a daze, why don't you hurry up and clean up?"

Liu Daidi wiped away the tears from her face, put her things back quickly, and then opened the door to welcome Chen Qing in.

Chen Qing was stunned by the dilapidated house with four walls.Chen Ping is Miao Rencui's best friend, why didn't he even buy a decent set of furniture when he got married?The handcrafted log furniture is rough and simple everywhere, showing the poverty of a room.

Even if the dowry gift from Liang's family was squandered for several years, it would not be enough to afford a set of household items. On the other hand, Liu Daidi, who was pregnant with her belly, vaguely knew the reason.He couldn't help taking a deep look at the old clothes that were full of patches, and thought that this little brother is very capable, not only turning mother and son against each other, but also successfully persuaded the eldest son to separate.

Although life was a bit difficult, it was a blessing to be able to live next to Miao Rencui.

Before Chen Qing could speak, Chen Ping preemptively said, "What are you doing here? Since you don't listen to the advice, you can't blame anyone for being robbed!"

Chen Qing raised his eyebrows, he didn't believe that Chen Ping came to the door to report the news, just his little cunning, at this time, the devil would believe it, "It's useless to talk less, if you don't want to serve corvee, go to the county government and surrender yourself, don't think that you are deceived." I wouldn't recognize it was you without your face!"

"Bah! What do you mean? Don't accuse a good person if you have no evidence." Chen Ping puffed up his chest and denied it to the end.

"Whether it's a false accusation or not, the county lord can decide for himself. As long as you are willing to report the looting to the government, the Liang family will not be blamed for the robbed property." Chen Qing's trip was to get Chen Ping to testify, so that Liang Ziping and Liang Zizhuang could be released. prison.

As long as the two brothers are acquitted and released, Hezhi County will have no reason to hold Liang Zijun. Once he is released, everything will be fine.

"Hahaha... I still thought why did you come to the door? It turned out that it was a weasel who gave New Year greetings to the chicken, and he had no good intentions! Want me to testify? Daydreaming! Do you think I am stupid? Against the county magistrate, why do you think I have a long life? Even if If I prove myself guilty, then how would the county release your two uncles from prison?" Chen Ping sneered, and laughed wildly at the sky after speaking, thinking in his heart that no wonder Chen Qing came rushing to Xingshi to inquire about the crime, it turned out that the Liang family was in trouble , had to seek his testimony.

Chen Ping only needs to infer a little, and it is not difficult to guess what Chen Qing intends for this move.

There has been a lot of rumors about the fact that Liangjiatun's grain was a disaster to the village. Although there is no conclusive evidence, it is impossible to escape the conviction after the year.Based on how Zhixian is a person, with a few tricks, he can hide the truth from the Liang family.

Liu Daidi shrank aside in an orderly manner, but now she couldn't help being annoyed when she heard it, and reprimanded with dissatisfaction, "Why do you ask my husband to plead guilty? Not to mention that he didn't participate in the robbery, even if he did, wouldn't you make him plead guilty?" You want to push him to jail? You are trying to kill my father and son!"

Chen Qing frowned and turned to Dadu Gong, secretly thinking that she hadn't thought carefully, and only cared about forcing Chen Ping to surrender, but ignored that there was a pregnant woman in his family who was about to give birth.But if you want to solve the urgent need right now, the only shortcut is to force Chen Ping to plead guilty.

"Wrong is wrong. Even if the magistrate of the county listens to the villain's slander and makes a wrong judgment, he can't stand the day when the truth will come to light. There are magistrates and even the imperial court who can avenge their grievances!" Chen Qing glanced at her protruding pregnant belly, and advised with some hesitation.

Chen Ping's crime is indeed unforgivable, but this little brother is innocent. With Miao Rencui's character, he will definitely refuse to help Chen Ping when he is imprisoned. Then the father and son will have a hard time.

Chen Ping's eyeballs rolled around, and some of them were denials to prevaricate Chen Qing.It wasn't until Chen Qing took out a list of pawns that the secret passage of all hope was over.

"It's not too late to repent now. As long as you are willing to testify that the Liang family was indeed ransacked, I will take care of their father and son for you until your sentence is over." This is the only solution Chen Qing can think of, although it seems coercive. , But at this time, I can't take care of that much.

Chen Ping glanced back and forth between the criminal evidence and his daughter-in-law, and couldn't help but grabbed his hair in frustration and wailed, "Chen Qing! You are trying to force me to death! We are brothers, why are you so ruthless?"

Chen Qing couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. He didn't want to force him to come here, otherwise he wouldn't have covered it up for him that day, but the most effective solution to this critical moment is to let Chen Ping confess his guilt, admit that he participated in the robbery, and then testify to Liang The family has never driven up prices, and the common people are fish and meat.

"It's not because I want to kill you, who told you not to learn well? You have to think about him if you don't think about yourself. Don't you know how dangerous my little brother's pregnancy is in the first year?..." Chen Qing's lips squirmed for a long time before sighing Hearing, these words of persuasion sounded a little like excuses to him, so he couldn't help but stop talking halfway through.

Even if Chen Ping was hateful, it was far from the situation where Chen Qing forced his family to be ruined, especially this little brother was still pregnant, no matter how anxious Chen Qing was, he couldn't bear to make trouble at this juncture.

"I just know that it's not easy for my little brother to get pregnant, so I want to keep this baby...Chen Qing, when I beg you, how can you say that you are also my cousin, can you really bear to see the Chen family's heir?" Chen Ping said with grief and indignation, and his eyes looked desperate Stare at Chen Qing.

"As long as you are willing to plead guilty, everything else is easy." Chen Qing hardened his heart and insisted.

Liu Daidi smiled wryly, if she had known today, she really shouldn't have kept this evil animal in her belly, now that her husband is in great trouble, how could he sit still and wait for death?Sui said in a loud voice, "You and I are both poor people, can you tell me about it because my life is not long?"

Chen Qing looked at this young brother pretending to be free and easy in surprise, frowned, and nodded in response.

Chen Ping looked at his daughter-in-law anxiously, wondering what kind of medicine he was selling in this gourd, why did he curse himself so well?

Liu Daidi gave him a reassuring look, and went into the bedroom with her belly outstretched.

He took out the box of jade from the bottom of the bed, and Liu Daidi fondled it lovingly for a long time before handing it to Chen Qing. "Most of the things that Chen Ping snatched were replaced with this box, and the rest are just baby clothes and some things." Coarse grain, I will return it to you now, please let him go."

After all, Liu Daidi knelt on the ground with her stomach in her arms, and said in a sad tone, "Although I have never seen you, I have heard a lot about you. Let me off Chen Ping. I was pregnant in the first year without my body recuperating. I think the day of giving birth will be the time when I will die. If I am lucky enough to give birth to a son and a half for my husband’s family, I still expect him to raise this son on my behalf... ...It's all for the sake of being a little brother, pity our father and son, don't send his father to see the official"

Chen Qing also knew the risk of pregnancy in the first year, but she didn't know that this little brother was already prepared to die, she felt uncomfortable, and she couldn't help scolding in a stiff tone, "Even if you know the danger, why do you risk your life to have a child?"

"Hehe... You're not me, how do you know how much I want this son? I have tasted everything since I was a child, and only my husband is willing to cherish me and treat me well. As long as he is happy, he gave up my life. I'm willing too," Liu Daidi said in a surprisingly gentle tone, trembling with happiness on her face.

Only this attitude of being willing to die and using the whole life made Chen Qing harden his heart, and only when he helped him did he express his disapproval, "Why are you doing this? Does he know what you are thinking?"

Liu Daidi smiled wryly and shook her head, no matter whether her husband knew about it or not, he would not change his mind, he just wanted to leave some good memories in his short life, and his wish was enough.

"I had no choice but to make this decision. Don't blame me. In your eyes, Chen Ping is a man who can be entrusted to you for life, but in my eyes, he is an out-and-out bastard!... Forget it, it depends on the baby." Forget it, being able to marry you can be regarded as a high incense on the ancestors of the old Chen family, and I must persuade him to be a good man in the future, and never do such messy things again!" Chen Qing sighed secretly, and gave up the original plan obediently. have plans.

Liu Daidi was overjoyed, she didn't expect Chen Qing to be such a righteous person.Everyone in the village said that Chen Qing was an upright person, daring to take action, but her husband's words were fierce and belittled him to nothing.Originally, I just begged him with the mentality of giving it a try, but I really bet right. This man-like little brother is not only upright, but also a kind person.

"Actually, Chen Ping is not bad at all. He did go to your house to report the news two days ago, but he didn't dare to say anything when there were outsiders present. He changed his mind after being scolded." Liu Daidi tried to stand firm, I was anxious to defend my husband.

Chen Qing heard that he didn't seem to be lying, so she shook her head and said, "Let's say that the Liang family should have suffered such a catastrophe, forget it, you will testify for him, and I will believe you... You keep everything, don't just think about whether you will die or not. You must live well, so that Chen Ping will not be restrained by anyone."

Liu Daidi was so grateful that she was speechless, and silently wiped away her tears and nodded in agreement.

Chen Qing could tell that this little brother had a hot temper, so he didn't have to tell him to be on guard against Miao Rencui. The little brother who was going to make a fuss was not afraid of that woman Miao Rencui. The food was donated to Liu Daidi, and Chen Ping was asked to treat his daughter-in-law well.

"For the sake of having a relationship with relatives, you should do it yourself. If Daidi didn't plead for you today, even if you dragged me, I would drag you to the county government for questioning." Chen Qing warned secretly, and then waved goodbye to Liu Daidi and drove away Go back in a bullock cart.

Returning in vain, although my heart was depressed, but seeing that little brother was so devoted, I couldn't bear the fact that my little brother, who was determined to die, had no one to accompany him when he gave birth.

I hope that Chen Ping can treat that little brother well in the future. After all, he is a poor person, so take it as a chance for Chen Ping to reform himself and start a new life.

In fact, Chen Qing is not the only way to solve his urgent needs, but this method is the most immediate and the fastest way.

Since Chen Ping couldn't go this way, Chen Qing had no choice but to follow the original plan in a detour.

Under Liang Zijun's guidance, Chen Qing approached Qin Yu in a detour.

Speaking of Qin Yu, one must also mention the scholar Qin Qin who competed for the first prize for He Biting at the Lantern Festival.Qin Yu is Qin Qin's cousin, he is also a direct descendant of the Qin family, and he is also the head of Qingping County.

Qin Yu's father is none other than Qin Kexin, the master of Hezhi County. Because of the hopelessness of the imperial examination, he lived in the county government and served as a master for two consecutive terms.And because his son's knowledge is still low, he pins all his hopes on his nephew Qin Qin, hoping that his nephew can go to high school, shine on the lintel, and lead the Qin family to revive the family.

The Qin family was originally one of the largest families in Qingping County. As a result, two generations in a row failed to achieve anything, and the family fortune fell, and they gradually withdrew from the circle of prominent families.

Qin Kexin had recommended Qin Qin several times in front of Hezhi County, but was prevaricated by the stupid official on the grounds of avoiding relatives, so he had no choice but to take He Biting's line, hoping to get He Biting's support and sponsorship to enter the exam.

Don't mention the other things, why Biting is a spendthrift, and his money is tight, so how can he be willing to contribute money to pave the way for Qin Qin?So Qin Qin followed He Biting for three years, but he still couldn't get what he wanted, but he had to rely on him, and he had first-hand evidence of corruption and bribery such as scientific examination fraud.

Liang Zijun was precisely aware of this point, so he kept this long-term life-saving line for use, and only waited for the critical moment to use this long-term life-saving line, ready to pull the net to end.
