Xiao Qiao enters the farm gate

Although the visitor stopped the torture and disturbed the court, his attitude was not arrogant.

I saw him go to the hall, bowed to the county magistrate, and said: "Lord county magistrate, it is absolutely necessary for the humble official to intervene in the court trial rashly. I hope that the magistrate will forgive you a little bit. The humble official came here this time to serve as the magistrate. Your lord's order, this is written by the magistrate."

As he spoke, he presented a letter.

The county magistrate quickly got up, took it with both hands, and read it quickly, and it really confirmed the previous guess.

The magistrate has already heard about the case, and said that the case has a great impact, and he must handle it carefully, not to be tortured into tricks, let alone to create unjust, false and wrong cases.The magistrate even stated in the letter that he will personally review the results of the case afterward. If he handles the case well, he will definitely not have to worry about the year-end assessment.

How could the county magistrate not understand the meaning, the magistrate was obviously eyeing this case, and he was helping Qiao Mo, the owner of Qiao Ji's shop.No matter how generous the Ma family and the Chen family were in giving money, with the magistrate intervening, they could only return the sum of money that the previous Ma Shangcai had given.Compared with the career prospects, that little money is nothing. Anyway, as long as there are officials to do it, there is no need to worry about no one giving money.

Almost made a decision after reading the letter, the county magistrate smiled and said to the people: "Your Majesty's instruction must be kept in mind, please reply to your Majesty, the next official will definitely have a fair trial, and the case will be cleared as soon as possible. Live up to the expectations of the magistrate."

"That humble job is farewell."

The three of Li Liang narrowly escaped a board, and the next interrogation was a question and answer, and they were released after the answer.Afterwards, they asked Qiao Ji's left and right store owners, and they all said that they had never seen Li Shuilian enter Qiao Ji, and said that they had seen Li Shuilian disagree with Qiao Ji's boss more than once.From this, the county magistrate concluded that Grandma Jin was "lying" and that the case had nothing to do with Qiao Ji. Naturally, she would not order Qiao Ji to be sealed up again.

Li Liang, Li Xiyu Wen watched helplessly as Grandma Jin received [-] boards, her wounds were bloody, and she passed out before finishing the boards. Can't survive.Recalling that I almost got hit by a board before, a cold sweat broke out on my back, and I was terrified.

Ma Shangcai had already sent someone to watch the court, and if there was any change, he would get news immediately.

"What's going on?" Ma Shangcai was both puzzled and annoyed at the county magistrate's inconsistency.

Before the messenger could reply, another servant came in to report: "Young master, the county magistrate sent someone to deliver a wooden box."

When Ma Shangcai saw the wooden box, he felt familiar. When he opened it, he found a stack of 500 taels of silver bills, which he had sent out earlier. The "li" were all returned, and it was obvious that they were going to let go of their hands.

"Tell me! Did something happen in the hall today?" Ma Shang was not stupid. If it wasn't for the accident that just happened that made the county magistrate change his mind, he wouldn't have returned the money right now.

"A man appeared in the courtroom and gave a letter to the magistrate. The magistrate was very polite to that man." Because he was far away, the man did not hear what was said.

Ma Shangcai thought about it slowly, and guessed a little bit, I'm afraid it was pressure from the county magistrate.He also thought that Fang Jinnian had just returned to Fengcheng, and that he had a close relationship with Qiao Ji's boss. No need to guess, it must be Fang Jinnian's handwriting.It's really in the way, he doesn't come back early and doesn't come back late, he just stands in the way at a critical moment, and has to fight against him everywhere.

"The young master is not good! It's not good!"

Just when Ma Shangcai was feeling resentful and thinking about how to repay him, a servant ran in in shock.Ma Shangcai grabbed the tea bowl and smashed it over, yelling and cursing: "You dog! I'm fine, young master!"

The visitor knelt on the ground with a puff, and did not dare to wipe off his head and face with tea. He kowtowed to plead guilty and said, "Young master, please go over quickly. The master just passed away. When he was dying, he left a message that the Ma family's property will be taken away." Pass it to the second young master."

"What?!" Ma Shangcai was frightened and angry, and ran to Master Ma's yard with a gloomy and terrifying expression.

Fang Jinnian's actions this time were fast and ruthless, which not only completely diverted Ma Shangcai's attention, but also caused the two sons of Ma's family to fall into a family property battle, involving all the surrounding in-laws involved, and the quarrel was immeasurable.The chaos on their side not only solved Qiao Mo's situation, but also gave Fang Jinnian a good opportunity to embezzle and suppress the property that originally belonged to the Ma family. The Ma family suffered from internal and external troubles for a while.

Fang Jinnian suspended his actions on the surface, so that he did not gain a reputation as a culprit in the eyes of outsiders, but secretly concealed his identity and continued to suppress and embezzle the remaining property of the Ma family.On the one hand, Fang Jinnian is doing it for himself, and on the other hand, it is for Qiao Mo. If he waits for the Ma family to recover in a few years, he will definitely retaliate. The friendship between people also has the kindness of the Qi family.

Qiao Ji opened for business as usual, while Ruyi Food Shop opposite changed hands again.

After all, the yamen incident had some impact on Qiao Ji.Ordinary businessmen dare not underestimate Qiao Ji, let alone provoke him at will. Who would dare to provoke someone who was able to fight with the Ma family but retreated completely and hurt the vitality of the Ma family?

Outsiders all speculate that Qiao Ji has a backer, which is a good thing for Qiao Mo.

After the matter was settled, Situxuan sent someone to visit. He only said that he was too busy to pay attention to someone plotting against him. When he found out afterwards, he had already dealt with it, so he didn't intervene. He also said that he didn't have to worry about the Ma family and the Chen family. Wait for trouble.Qiao Mo didn't want to ask Situxuan for help, but he doubted that the other party used the excuse that he was busy and didn't know about it and didn't help.

But no matter what the other party's real reason was, Qiao Mo didn't go into it deeply, and he didn't intend to get close after all.

The last letter sent to the capital has been answered. Qi Yun said that the two elder generations were indeed very friendly, but because of the Qi Nan incident, it faded away more than ten years ago, and now it is enough to respect each other as the king of the county.The meaning here is already very clear, and Qiao Mo originally planned to do so.

Within a few days, Lin Gui remarried happily.

When it comes to this matter, it is necessary to talk about Lin Laoma's extreme joy begets sorrow.Because Lin Gui talked about a good marriage, Madam Lin was very proud to spread it around, which inevitably aroused some people's jealousy.In the past, these jealous people were just talking about Lin Gui's past, but this time they accidentally learned that his ex-husband Lang Yingzi was pregnant, and the whole brother Shanglin Village was blown up. The reason for Heli is that there is nothing to come out, now... isn't it a big mouth?

A few people purposely talked about it in front of Mrs. Lin, and the sarcasm inside and outside the words made Mrs. Lin feel ashamed!

"Who said there is something wrong with my Agui? It's Yingzi's bad horoscope, Kefukezi, it's unlucky for our family to marry him. Now we Agui have a good marriage, and within a year or so, we will add a fat and cute one." Boy, at that time, you were still talking nonsense!" Madam Lin retorted angrily, and slandered Yingzi severely.

"Who's horoscope is bad? Look at your two sons, look at Lin Zheng who was separated from your family, and look at Yingzi today. Tsk tsk, I didn't say that, let me see, your two sons The life of a son is also hard, and the whole family is for you to restrain." There are those who are not afraid of things and look down on Old Mama Lin, and they are not forgiving, and the big hat is directly placed on Madam Lin's head.

"No, Lin Shan is also pitiful, he is about to die of illness, and this old daughter-in-law still cares about Yin Zi regardless."

"Ah Gui is going to live in the city as soon as he gets married, and the family is sick and lame. How can this old lady take care of her? I think he only cares about his son. Lin Shan is the same. A daughter-in-law, how can she have the face to see the one in front of her after her death?"

Old Mo Lin couldn't stand others comparing him to Lin Zhengah, and even hated saying that he couldn't compare, so she quarreled with these people and went home.

When the wedding day comes, Qiao Mo will also attend.

After all, Fulang's family has a lot of money, even if they hold a wedding event in the countryside of Shanglin Village, it is very festive and lively.Qiao Mo secretly paid attention to the food and drinks at the banquet, and the arrangement of the house, which could not have been done according to the Lin family's foundation, and must have been sponsored by the Fulang family.This is not surprising, what is surprising is that Lin Gui accepted it?Didn't he always pay the most attention to the nobility of scholars, and also value his own face the most?

Is it possible that if you can't go to school and study, you don't need those?

When the firecrackers sounded and the sedan chair arrived, the matchmaker helped the bride-to-be into the door.A lot of people from the village came to have a wedding, and many people gathered around to watch the fun. At this time, seeing the appearance of the new husband, I don't know if it was expected or unexpected.

Many people speculated before that the reason why the family did not choose a husband and son-in-law was probably because the brother was disabled.But right now, it seems that this brother is white and clean, round and round, and he is quite shy when he smiles, but he can't worry about the slightest disability.But this guy is a bit too round and rich, and his facial features are a bit stingy, but overall he is not ugly, but he is not beautiful either.

No matter how average this guy's condition is, the villagers still feel that Lin Gui is lucky, given his family background.

Qiao Mo also thought it looked good, better than expected.

After watching the newcomers pay their respects and have the wedding wine, Qiao Mo went home.

Lin Gui and his new husband stayed at home for three full days, and on the fourth day, they took a car together and took their things into the city. They said that they would not come back during the New Year, and they would go out with their father-in-law to inspect the business.After all, Old Mama Lin was a bit reluctant, but Lin Gui persuaded him and gave him another 50 taels of silver, and Mammy Lin stopped talking.

It was just the beginning of the twelfth lunar month, and Qiao Mo received another letter from the capital with a carload of New Year gifts.

Some of them were given by the Qi family. Qiao Mo read it once and asked Zhang Xia to keep the account and put it away. His eyes fell on another gift for the new year.Apart from some Jincheng specialties, this item is mostly leather, most of which are wolf skins.Even though Zhang Xia and the others came from the capital, they had seen many good things, but such good wolf skins were rare, so they couldn't help but be amazed.

However, Qiao Mo knew that it was Lin Zheng who shot it himself, so one could imagine how dangerous this trip was.
