Ding Tian's Ancient Life

"That's right, he's looking at Xiaolan..." Zhao Lao Si said angrily, "But he doesn't know who Xiaolan is, so if he asks someone from the cloth village, how could the buddies from the cloth village tell him? They all know." The young master of the third room of the Ma family is not a good guy, but after he bought the pile of embroidery, the treasurer of the cloth shop told him that it was the female family members of the Zhao family... The ones who went there were indeed the daughters of the Zhao family. After finding out, he went home to make a fuss. He was the only child in their third room. Naturally, he was spoiled and raised since he was a child... After his family agreed, he asked a matchmaker to do the matchmaking. Based on the embroidery, my third sister's I learned embroidery from Xiaolan, and it was so similar. The matchmaker came to the door, but I was going to marry Xiaolan, and Xiaolan's parents didn't agree, because the Ma family...that family was not suitable for Xiaolan. "

"And the matchmaker also found the wrong family. Xiaolan is already engaged. It must not be her. The matchmaker found all the girls' homes that went to the embroidery village that day. She couldn't talk about the embroidery work, but said to look at the girls. Needlework, it will be easy to say goodbye in the future, from a few familiar

My daughter found out that my third sister's embroidery work is like this... Then the matchmaker came to the door... knowing that she found the wrong person...

"

"But my eldest brother and the others think this is a good marriage. Only the third sister is not married. The third sister was spoiled and spoiled since she was a child. She only wanted to find a rich man in Fucheng. She was not allowed to wash clothes and cook since she was a child. She was raised like a young lady. Big, because she is an old girl, and her parents also... like her the most. She is going to marry Young Master Ma, and the eldest brother and the others also support her, because the Ma family must have given a lot of dowry. I got a lot of benefits from the Ma family, so...they told the matchmaker that they agreed to the marriage...After the engagement, Xiaolan helped the third sister embroider some of the embroidery work, and sent it to the Ma family. Satisfied..." "After Xiaolan and I got married, the family split up immediately. We live in the west of Zhaojia Village, while my eldest brother lives in the east, and the second and third brothers live in the south and in the middle... The three families are far apart, and when the third sister got married, Xiaolan was pregnant. The family said that she was afraid of the unstable fetal position, so she was not allowed to help and raise the baby at home. I was very grateful to them at that time, because Xiaolan was really not in good health. She is strong, and even after she got pregnant, she struggled a lot..."

"That is to say, after Mr. Ma entered the bridal chamber and lifted the hijab, he discovered that... he married the wrong person?"

"Yes, Mr. Ma didn't see Xiaolan until Sanchao came back..." Mr. Zhao lowered his head and said naively: "At that time, I thought his brother-in-law was a bit strange to me, but my family said that he It's your young master, it's right to look down on mud-legged people like us, I didn't think much about it, I'm a fool, Xiaolan is honest, we live on our own, and we have a good life. After Xiaolan gave birth, Brother-in-law... The third sister also sent a lot of things. Later, Xiaolan's parents passed away. After three years of mourning, Xiaolan and I didn't go out very much, and we didn't even go back for the New Year. Three years later, apart from Xiaolan, Xiaolan had another I am pregnant... I already have three children, and my third sister is not even pregnant, plus Young Master Ma is a scholar... Every time I see my third sister, she is not very happy, and she doesn't like it the most. My relationship with Xiaolan has also gotten worse."

"Before Chinese New Year last year, my third son was full moon, and Xiaolan's health improved a little. I am also happy. My brother-in-law also passed the examination of scholar. Brother-in-law, they’re all back. Happy Chinese New Year! They’re drinking, but I’m actually not good at drinking, but when I’m drunk, I’m the most obedient, just standing there and giggling, I’m definitely not going to be drunk.” Fourth Zhao said excitedly : "But when I woke up, I found that they were all injured, but I... I was also injured, but they said that the last one standing was me!"

So everyone believed that the final winner was Zhao Lao Si who stood up!

Ding Tian frowned: "We know what will happen in the future, you will be sent to the government for handling."

"Actually, at the beginning, the village head said that he would compensate some soup and medicine expenses. These are real relatives... But Master Ma refused to accept it. He insisted on sending me to the Yamen. After I was imprisoned, my eldest brother and the others came to see me for the first time. I just said, Young Master Ma's condition is very simple, let me divorce Xiaolan, he wants to take Xiaolan as his concubine, he is a man of fame, and after five years of marriage, my third sister has nothing... ...How could I agree?" Zhao Lao Si's eyes widened: "That's my wife, my son's mother!"

"So the Ma family is not forgiving?" Ding Tian didn't expect that the inside story would be so complicated.

"Well, although the third house of the Ma family is not in charge of the house, it is much better than us country folks. The people don't fight against the rich." Zhao Laosi held his head: "Brother told me, if I don't divorce my wife, Ma's The young master will let me stay in prison for the rest of my life... But I can't sell my wife to him..."

"Then why is there no follow-up?" Ding Tian felt that if the young master of the Ma family could do such a thing, he must not have given up halfway.

guy.

"Probably because the Lord Fuzun was changed, and at that time, the Lord Fuzun was very busy..." Jin Jia guessed: "The Ma family is not very convinced by the Lord Fuzun, I remember that the city was not peaceful at that time, So they may not have time to take care of such trivial matters... Besides, Lord Ning is still at the station, if they dare to do something like robbing the women..."

Needless to say, even if the Ma family supported the prefect, the prefect Du would not let them go!

What's more, they are still fighting against the magistrate, if they really do that, prefect Du doesn't mind sending their whole family to jail.

So the young master of the Ma family gave benefits to the four brothers of the Zhao family and came with a soft knife... If it was a hard knife... Du Zhifu would have opened a trial long ago.

"Does anyone else know about this?" Ding Tian asked Zhao Laosi.

"There have been some rumors in the village, because every time Young Master Ma goes, he will inquire about the female relatives at home..." Zhao Laosi said with red eyes: "I don't see things well, so I told Xiaolan not to leave home. When the house was at the west end of the village, guarding the edge of the village, the fence of the house was deliberately made as high as a person, and it was full of tree branches, so it was impossible to climb up. The gate of the house was also thick... ..., her parents are gone, she is left alone... But others dare not do anything to her, she still has eight uncles, when she got married, Xiaolan took half of the family property, and the remaining half The expenses of the business and the rest of the family property, she divided equally among the eight uncles, and the land was given to the clan, and they also protected Xiaolan. Otherwise, how could the Ma... use this method? I am afraid he would have come to snatch her away. It's..."

Now he only hopes that Xiaolan can be safe at home.

"What's the matter!" Jin Jia was also stunned by this really wanting.

"Then they didn't dare to be tough, so they framed you?" Ding Tian stroked his chin and said, "Young Master Ma wants you to take the initiative to divorce your wife...

"

In this day and age, women who are divorced by their husband's family don't have a good end.

Either become a nun and accompany the ancient Buddha with green lights; or throw himself into the river and lose his way of life.

Even if a peasant woman has a thick skin, she will not be happy if she returns home and remarries...

Especially for women who left a child in their husband's house, the fate of that child... don't worry about it.

What's more, Zhao Zhang's natal family has no direct blood relatives, and the uncle's house is separated by a layer. If she is divorced... where will she go?

And if Young Master Ma had proposed to take her as a concubine at that time, he would definitely do it!

There is also a sense of "heroes saving the beauty"...it's really a good plan.

"So that's the case." After hearing the inside story, Jin Jia is no longer interested, because there is no technical content, and it is entirely because of Fengyue.

"So... Ding Si prison, can you help me?" Elder Zhao slipped off the chair, hugged Ding Tian's thigh, knelt on the ground and did not let go: "Help me... I kowtow to you!"

Probably because he has resisted for so long, Zhao Laosi is also on the verge of collapse, and Ding Tian is his only hope.

"Don't do this, I will help you." Ding Tian helped him up: "What you are worried about now is your wife. I think, if you bring her and the children to the city, even the Ma family can't be open in the city. Do it!"

"Yes, yes, yes!" Jin Jia nodded: "You can temporarily lock the door at home, and ask the clansmen to take care of it. The fields at home... Since your brothers don't want to tear themselves apart with you, let them take care of it for you. If this matter gets out, the four brothers will stop being human."

They can threaten the fourth brother Zhao, so Ding Tian and the others can also threaten the four brothers Zhao in turn.

"Yeah!" Zhao Laosi nodded fiercely, he can't even trust his own brother now, but he can only trust Ding Siyu.

Knowing the inside story, Ding Tian sent Zhao Laosi back to the cell, and then went to find Du Zhifu.

Just in time for Du Zhifu to have lunch, seeing Ding Tian coming, he smiled: "You know that I have delicious food here?"

"What are you eating?" Ding Tian deliberately stretched his neck to watch.

"The omelette baked by Madam, and the stir-fried green vegetables." Prefect Du was even happier: "You are lucky."

"That's really great!" Ding Tian rolled up his arms and sleeves: "This little one has to let go and have a meal. Madam doesn't cook easily. Is there any happy event today?"

"It's not a happy event, but seeing that there are a lot of goose eggs at home, I don't eat them for fear of spoiling them, so I just made omelettes, and I haven't eaten them for a long time. I really miss them. Back then, my family was poor and my wife did all the housework. Although life is better now, but my wife is still so virtuous..." Du Zhifu showed off his wife, but Ding Tian was not married, so he couldn't understand it, so he had to apologize, and took a meal by himself with chopsticks.

After lunch, Ding Tian found a chance to tell Zhifu Du what he knew.

"Actually, Master said the same thing. He just went to Zhangjiacun today to see if Zhangjiacun can take care of his son-in-law Zhao Laosi." Du Zhifu put down his teacup: "It turns out that this government thinks this is strange. , It’s just drunk and accidentally hitting someone, the most compensation is some soup and medicine, and they are all real relatives, why do they have to go to court? So this is the problem.”

"The four brothers of the Zhao family took advantage of the Ma family, and the young master of the third house of the Ma family is also a jerk. People didn't know it, and they just married wives at will, but they didn't cherish them... You can't go back and make up for it afterwards. Right?" Ding Tian was rather annoyed: "If none of them succeed

It's a good thing to say, now Zhao Laosi has three sons... "

"That's right, I'd rather demolish ten temples than break up a marriage." Du Zhifu stroked his beard and sighed: "In a few days, I will be promoted to the hall to ask the case.

The government sentenced Mr. Zhao to half a year in prison and compensated for the soup and medicine, that's all. If they don't give up, the government is not afraid to tear their skins!

"

Prefect Du didn't like the Ma family either. Since he came to serve as magistrate, the Ma family has been under constant temptation. It is true that the Ma family is a big local family, but how dare you confront the government as a civil gentry?

What are you exploring?

Prefect Du didn't know, but he had read the files left by his predecessor. Among them, several cases were judged in favor of the Ma family. He would not believe that there was no inside story here.

As a big local family, the Ma family would not believe it if they said they hadn't committed any crimes...

"It's fine with your support!" What Ding Tian wanted was the attitude of Du Zhifu. The king is in Fucheng.

There are also three thousand garrisons, which are all deterrents.

Ding Tian left satisfied, Du Zhifu also smoothed over the case, and now there is only one case left in the government office that he needs to intervene in person.

At the same time, there are some people in the Ma family who are discussing this matter.
