What a cheating husband

Chapter 176 The Death of Father Chen

"Boss daughter-in-law...you are dying, how can you be so cruel?" Grandpa Chen slapped the table with tears in his eyes and angrily scolded.

"No money! I'm going to die anyway, so why waste money on a dead man? With that spare money, it's enough for Ping'er to marry another wife!" Miao Rencui refused to reveal where the money was hidden.

In the end, Miao Rencui still hated Liu Daidi, if he hadn't provoked her, how could her son be distracted with him?

"Isn't there still ten taels left? It's important to save people first, and the baby can't do without a father!" Boss Chen advised bitterly and bitterly.

"Why? Old things don't need to be taken care of by the elderly? There is only so much money in the family. If you can take care of the old, you can't take care of the young. Besides, don't the baby have to drink rice soup? You have to use money to buy everything in the family..." Miao Rencui Boss Chen, who was as damaged as crackling beans, couldn't open his mouth.

Seeing his son and daughter-in-law quarreling, Grandpa Chen sighed, if he didn't know where the money was hidden, he would have to grab it to save people even if he tried his best.

The helpless Grandpa Chen raised his head and let out a long sigh, went back to the house, picked up a rope and walked out of the house, letting his son and daughter-in-law make noise at home.

"It's so clean!" Grandpa Chen walked towards the entrance of the village with trembling steps. When he met a villager who asked him where he was going, he only smiled and replied, "Go to accompany my wife. Remember to ask the boss to save me with money." Good granddaughter”

The villagers didn't know why, and went home muttering to themselves.After thinking about it at night, I always felt that something was wrong, so I hurriedly put on my clothes and went to the village chief's house to discuss.

The old village head cursed secretly, gathered the villagers to search around, and finally found the hanged Grandpa Chen on the grave of Grandma Chen...

The dead old man was hanging from the pear tree next to the new grave, silently telling his sorrow with the morning breeze.

Recalling the sentence that Grandpa Chen often said, "Raise children to guard against old age", the village chief scolded tearfully, "What use is there to keep such unworthy descendants?"

Early in the morning, the villagers filled with righteous indignation beat Mr. Chen and Mrs. Chen with sticks, and asked where Mr. Chen was going.The village head accused angrily, "Boss Chen, Miao Rencui forced your father to death, do you know or not?"

Boss Chen paused on the ground, muttered in a daze, "Father... son is not filial"

As for how the hospital would be sanctioned by the village, Chen Ping didn't care about it, and he couldn't care about it. He took his son and rushed to the town early in the morning, and pawned all his belongings before pulling his wife out of the hospital.

"Son, it's inevitable that you will be as useless as daddy when you grow up. Dad will give you a good upbringing even if he begs." Sitting on the bullock cart, Chen Ping hugged his son tightly, and whispered to his daughter-in-law: "I'm sorry, Daidi... ...Your husband is useless, you have to disregard your end-of-life entrustment... It is better to do long-term work for others than to hang around with me. After all, I am a dou who cannot be supported. "

In a coma, Liu Daidi twitched the corner of her mouth slightly, shedding a drop of tears silently, drying them all in the cold wind of early summer...

The comfortable old house is still ushering in a brand new day as usual.

Chen Qing got up early in the morning to wash up, packed Yuanyuan and sent her to the second sister-in-law's room to help look after her.

This season is just the season when weeds emerge, and it is inevitable to compete with them for nutrients in the field, so it is better to get rid of them as soon as possible.

After returning to the house, he put on his old clothes and was about to go out. As soon as he opened the door, he saw a quilt lying in front of the door.Opened it and looked at it, Chen Qing was taken aback for a moment, and hurriedly stepped forward and called out, "Dai Di... Dai Di?"

The milk baby just woke up, hungry and howling, Chen Qing hurriedly picked up the limp baby, turned around and shouted into the yard, "Second sister-in-law! Second sister-in-law, come quickly..."

Shao Fengzhi had just cooked soft and glutinous noodles for Yuanyuan, when he heard the sound, he ran out and scolded, "What are you shouting about? Damn it early in the morning... Oops~ Where did this baby come from?"

"Second sister-in-law, hurry up and take her away..." Chen Qingbian handed the hot potato to Shao Fengzhi with a terrified expression on his lips, and before Shao Fengzhi could speak, he hurriedly said, "Don't ask, just carry her in quickly..."

"Hey? Hey! Ziping~ Hurry up and give me a helping hand!" Shao Fengzhi's loud voice startled the whole family, young and old, carried him into the house in a hurry, and then went to the county to invite a doctor to look at him diagnosis.

After the people settled down and the soup was poured, the family turned to the main hall to discuss how to deal with the father and son.

Just after Liu Hongmei finished feeding the baby rice soup, she untied her swaddle and shouted, "Here's another letter!"

Chen Qing took it apart and looked at it, frowned and scolded, "This Chen Ping! What a nonsense!"

"What's the matter?" Liang Zixian took it and watched it before persuading him, "Hurry up and send someone to chase after him! Zijun has already pulled away, there's no need to take another person in!"

Chen Qing also had this intention, so he hurriedly asked Li Sanwei to stop him quickly, and decided to stop Chen Ping before Chen Ping surrendered himself in the provincial capital.

In addition to what happened to Daoming's family, the letter also included a contract of selling the baby.

Chen Ping didn't ask for him, but only asked Liang's family to save his wife's life for the sake of his testifying in court. Regardless of whether the rescue was successful, he had no complaints.

I also hope that Chen Qing can look at his repentance and raise his son on his behalf, whether he is a long-term worker or a servant, as long as the Liang family can raise their son, Chen Ping will be grateful.

"This is also Chen Ping, my son, no matter how difficult it is, he can't sell it to outsiders!" Liu Hongmei patted the baby with distress.

The letter was read in front of the whole family, so although everyone was not worried about the past, they were still dissatisfied with Chen Ping's actions.

Although he is sincerely repenting, but he can't escape the idea of ​​shirking responsibility, besides, Liu Daidi doesn't know if he can be saved, how can he bear to let such a little baby live without a father or mother?

Now that Chen Ping threw the father and son to the Liang family, it can be said that he lost a hot potato to the Liang family.Even if Chen Ping didn't come to this hand, Chen Qing would not refuse to save her, but the most difficult thing to deal with was the milk baby who was waiting to be fed.

Not to mention the milk baby and grandpa and grandma, even if it is really entrusted to Chen Qing, is it possible that he, as an "aunt", can really treat him as a servant?

Chen Qing is not easy to speak, and the whole family understands that, after all, they are related by blood, so they can only be raised by Chen Ping before Chen Ping comes back.

"Saving people is the most important thing. Return the doll to Chen Ping when he comes back. After all, he is a relative. If you can help, please help." Liang Baida sighed deeply, really speechless for this family.

Marrying a good daughter-in-law like Chen Qing, but she also has to be burdened by her mother's family, thanks to the benevolence and righteousness of the Liang family, otherwise everyone would have to complain about the daughter-in-law.

Chen Qing also knew that he had caused trouble for the Liang family, so he could only arrange all the people in his own courtyard, saying that he would take care of them.

Yuanyuan was taken away by the second sister-in-law, and Chen Qing couldn't say anything, besides, he really couldn't spare his hands to take care of his son now.

Liu Hongmei pretended to help and stayed in the house. Chen Qing knew what she was thinking, threw the baby to her and said, "Anyway, I can't take care of it, so please ask my sister-in-law to help feed my nephew."

Liu Hongmei coughed secretly, picked up the baby and slipped back to her yard.

Chen Qing couldn't help being amused when she saw it, and turned her head to see Liu Daidi who was unconscious, and muttered melancholy, "You can't die! No matter how good others treat him, they are not real fathers. What, but now that Chen Ping is gone, he probably won't come back... Don't blame me for looking down on him. He has always been like this. Alive..."

Chen Qing whispered in Liu Daidi's ear, hoping that he would have more desire to survive.

Chen Qing lost her parents since she was a child, so she naturally knows how hard it is for a child without a mother.As for Chen Ping's unreliable father, let's not talk about it, even if he does come back, no one can say what his son will look like in his hands. It is estimated that having a father is as good as not having a father.

Li San and Wei Liang chased them all the way to the provincial capital without blocking Chen Ping. It wasn't until three days later that they found out that Chen Ping drove the carriage and went to the city early to meet the officials.

Liu Weizhi was worrying about the lack of evidence, so Chen Ping was interrogated in court, and all the criminal evidence was rushed to the capital.

Ordinarily, when King Jing returned to Beijing, he should have dispatched officials to take his place.But for some reason, it has been a long time since the imperial court appointed new officials to serve here, but the originally appointed officials were dismissed by the imperial court due to delay in fulfilling their responsibilities. Therefore, our Master Liu is still in the post of magistrate of Jingzhou until now.

Hezhi County corrupted the law and committed heinous crimes. After Chen Ping exposed the evidence, the case of framing Zhongliang was sentenced.

The imperial court was arguing over the Jingzhou fraud case. At this time, Chen Ping testified against the crime, and it happened that the two cases were tried together.

Chen Ping was originally a cheating examinee, so he told all the facts he knew, and then exposed the bribery of several newly promoted candidates, and then showed his own testimony with the test questions bought by the imperial examination at that time, and immediately pushed the case to the light. The guilty minister has no way to deny it, so far, Fang has suppressed the leftist faction and has no power to fight back.

Even Liu Weizhi didn't expect that Chen Ping would be the key to the case. If he hadn't provided evidence, not to mention the major fraud case in Jingzhou, even the corruption case in Hezhi County would have been impossible to start.But thinking that this person was Chen Qing's cousin, he couldn't help sighing, and invited the court overnight, hoping that Chen Ping would be punished lightly for the sake of Chen Ping's crimes and meritorious service.

With conclusive evidence, coupled with Qin Qin's confession, the court issued punishments for fraudulent officials not long after.

All major officials, including He Zhi County, ransacked their homes and executed them, and their family members were reduced to slavery and sold for labor.The accomplice Ji was dismissed from his official position and exiled to the bitter cold place in Mobei because of his relatively minor crime, and he was not allowed to enter Beijing for life.

So far, the scandalous imperial examination fraud case has finally been settled.

After Liang Zijun rushed to the capital, he first met Li Shoucai and asked him not to show up until the case was closed.

Li Shoucai felt ashamed in his heart, and repeatedly stated that he could not help himself. If the Liang family hadn't tipped off the news, he would have been thrown into a deep prison at this moment and become a body to be punished.

Liang Zijun didn't complain about this, he was the one who told Chen Qing to write to brother Li early in the morning.Besides, even if Li Shoucai came forward at that time, it would not help the matter, so why bother to deal with the Wanguan family property of the Li family?

Now, the case is closed and he and Liao Fanzhi have escaped. Although they are in different circumstances, luckily all three of them are still alive. Although the Liao family lost half of their property, it is better to keep a small life than to lose it, right?

Li Shoucai felt very sorry for the two brothers, and said bluntly that he would help the Liao family restore the prosperity of the past. Liang Zijun smiled and replied, "It's okay, brother Liao's situation is amazing, and it is unknown whether it will be a blessing in disguise."

Li Shoucai shook his head and sighed, "It's always wrong to do things for officials, but if you use Li, please let me know, Li will definitely not refuse."

"It's easy to say, brother Liao will ask you and me for help due to the shortage of money in a short time, then..." Liang Zijun looked at him with a smile on his folding fan.

"Haha... This is what I said, even if I spend all my wealth, I will definitely help Brother Liao realize his ambitions!" Li Shoucai slapped the table and stood up proudly to respond.

"If you say this, it will be done, but don't dare to let that kid know, or you will definitely lose your ten thousand family property." Liang Zijun took out a letter from his arms and handed it to him, and said with a headache, "This kid is too greedy. Dare to talk about such a big piece of meat, and you are not afraid to hold it to death!"

Li Shoucai took it with both hands, and after watching it, he smiled and said, "It's really like what Brother Liao did... Hehe, I don't think it's a problem. In terms of wit, you and I are not as good as him...Since he wants to, he can definitely swallow it all."

Liang Zijun squinted his eyes and discussed with him how to help his friend, the two talked straight into the middle of the night before falling asleep.

What Liao Fanzhi is dealing with here is the older generation of powerful ministers headed by Zuo Xiang, with King Jing behind the scenes to help.

In addition, this time it involves official salt, which is the top priority of the imperial court's taxation. If there is no law, it will be returned without success. The power returned to the hands of the emperor.

Liao Fanzhi's big business is not in a hurry, right now Liang Zijun has to be busy choosing shops besides going in and out of the palace every day, although the eldest brother helped to look at a few shops, but it is up to Liang Zijun to decide which one to decide.

As soon as he entered Beijing, Liang Zijun wanted to meet quite a few acquaintances. As soon as he settled down in his eldest brother Liang Zi'an's house, he brought gifts and went to visit Liang Baijin without stopping.

Liang Bojin and his wife were naturally delighted to see him. During the dinner, they heard that Zijun didn't want to be an official, and Wang Guilian wanted to persuade him again. Liang Bojin patted his wife on the shoulder and said, "Well, Zijun has his own plans, and King Jing also has plans for recruiting him to Beijing. I think it’s better to wait and see first.”

Liang Zijun did not shy away from telling all his worries, and finally said with a proud expression, "He wants to use me, and his nephew must be willing."

Liang Zishu laughed and said, "You skinny monkey, you still can't change your temper, so don't let yourself be fooled in vain and annoy King Jing again."

"Little brother has his own measure." Liang Zijun sneered, this cousin is two years older than Liang Zixian, so Zijun was often taught by this cousin for being naughty when he was young.

"I think Zijun's escape plan is feasible. King Jing has made a lot of enemies in the court. If my younger brother is recruited by him, he may get angry. Master Liu belongs to the Imperial Academy, and he is a young and strong school. People who follow the trend and are upright and upright, if they work for them and pretend to be aides, they will not be hated by others." Liang Ziwen stroked his beard lightly and said with a smile.

"Second brother still thinks clearly." Liang Zijun flattered happily, and climbed along.

"You! If you don't want to become an official, what are you using as an excuse for that Lao Shizi?" Liang Zishu said in disdain.

"Hey hey hey... If it is not forced, I would rather be an idle layman at home, why bother to step into the place of right and wrong, intrigues." Liang Zijun raised his glass, drank the good wine in the glass and smashed it secretly, "good wine, if you don't come here, you can't drink it. You can’t drink freely, and it’s a worthwhile trip”

"Hahaha...although good wine is good, you need to order it as soon as you can, don't be too greedy to cause trouble," Liang Baijin pointed out with a smile.

"Why do you say such disappointing things? Zijun seldom comes to Beijing, so drink more if you like, and you will come and walk often in the future, and you will have to drink." Wang Guilian hurriedly ordered the maid to bring two more jugs of good wine.

"My aunt still loves my little nephew the most, and my nephew toasts my aunt." Liang Zijun stood up and approached Wang Guilian, coquettishly flattering her.

"You~ you've become a father, and you're still acting like this." Wang Guilian poked his forehead lovingly, and drank a glass of wine contentedly.
