Lucky husband

"That's enough, Mrs. Qian, show some face!" The other women in Shanghe Village couldn't help interrupting her.

At this time, there is still something incomprehensible. It is already certain that Qian Xinghua stole the Li family's things. She was caught by everyone, but she refused to admit it.

Old Madam Li lowered her face and stared at Qian Xinghua: "Qian Xinghua, try repeating what you just said."

"I, I, you, you bullied others, I didn't steal anything..." Looking at old lady Li, Qian Xinghua's voice became softer and weaker.

She knew that she shouldn't have said that sentence in court, not only because no one would believe it, but also because her words would offend the county magistrate.

"Yes, you are right. Our Li family has not officially divorced you yet, but my son has already sent you back to her natal family. This is a fact. We sent you to the court. You are a thief." "The old lady Li said slowly, "Because you are the mother of Xia Yatou and Mingcai boy, and their two children are still young, and neither of them is engaged. If you have a mother who has been in prison, it will affect their reputation. If it is too big, Mingcai might not pass the imperial examination if he wants to study in the future."

Old Madam Li knew that Li Mingcai was what Qian Xinghua cared most about. Sure enough, when she said that Qian Xinghua's behavior might affect Li Mingcai, Qian's expression changed instantly.

Qian Xinghua shook her head vigorously, she was even more flustered than before: "No, I can't affect my talent, my talent will have great promise in the future, I can't influence him because of me!"

"If you don't want us to send you to the county government, and don't want to affect Li Mingcai's future, it's very simple, just do the two things I said." Seizing Qian Xinghua's fate, Old Madam Li said to her Make your own request, "Now go to the center of our village under the big pagoda tree and admit to the big guy that you came here to steal something today, and when you go to Qiantan Village later, you have to tell everyone that you were arrested by the Li family. Rest, not reconciliation!"

Before, Mrs. Li heard Li Chengli say that Qian Xinghua told the people in Qiantan Village that she was going back to her natal family with Li. At that time, she wanted to scold Li Chengli for being out of her mind. Let her talk nonsense.

This time, Li Chengli finally got a little tougher and said harsh words to Mrs. Qian, and gave Mrs. Li a chance to deal with her, but she had to tell a little bit about all the disgusting things she did before.

Qian Xinghua's eyes widened quite a bit, asking her to admit that she stole in front of everyone in Shanghe Village, and to tell the truth to the people in her natal village, didn't she want to make her suffer to death.

But relatively speaking, the thing that would affect Liming made Qian Xinghua even more uncomfortable, because she could only rely on her son who would be promising in the future.

In Qian Xinghua's heart, a son is much more reliable than a man. She wanted to find a man who was more powerful than Li Chengli. Apart from feeling that Li Chengli was useless and wronged her all these years, she also wanted to get angry with the Li family. Make them look down on her.

Seeing that Qian Xinghua hadn't made a decision, Li Chengli said in a low voice: "Mother, I don't think she knows how to repent at all, so let's just send her to the county government. Xia Yatou is still young, and her marriage will be discussed later. As for the explanation talent……"

"Li Chengli, Mingcai is also your son, why are you so cruel, you don't want your son's good at all, ruining me and affecting Mingcai will do you no good!" Qian Xinghua screamed.

Li Chengli said earnestly: "I don't know what it's like to study in Mingcai. I don't know if he is suitable or whether he can read. If he can read it, I will fight for him. But if he has other reasons If he can’t study and take the imperial examination, it’s not impossible to let him farm with me to make a living, anyway, our Li family now has Mingde from the elder brother’s family studying in the school.”

To be honest, if this sentence is spoken by Mrs. Li, no matter who it is, everyone will think that Mrs. Li is biased towards the eldest family and is unfair to the second wife, but it will be different when the words come out of Li Chengli's mouth.

Qian Xinghua was about to die of anger, why was she so careless, why was she so impatient, and didn't come to Shanghe Village a few times before taking away the money box!

By this time, she hadn't realized her mistake, and she didn't think that if she didn't want to steal money, she wouldn't have these things.

Li Chengli looked at Qian Xinghua's constantly changing expression, and just when he was about to actually lift her up and send her to the county government, Qian Xinghua said: "Okay, I admit that I came to Shanghe Village for Take this box!"

"Come on, I'll follow you to the big locust tree in the center of the village. I admit that I took this box. You can't send me to the county government anymore, and you can't drag Mingcai's reputation."

Old Madam Li glanced at Li Chengli, she never thought that her son would finally get his head around one day and threaten Qian Xinghua in such a way, making her finally admit that she stole things.

Qian Xinghua sprained her ankle, she didn't ask anyone to help her, she stood up from the ground on her own, and limped towards the big pagoda tree in the center of Shanghe Village.

In fact, Li Chengli and the women don't want to help her either. Li Chengli is thinking that he has already said that he wants to divorce his wife, so it is best not to have any more contact with Qian Xinghua. Old lady Li and the others are worried that they will not help her well later. Instead, blame it on yourself.

Just now Qian Xinghua was running fast, but now she was walking very slowly. It was a bit awkward for the men from Shanghe Village to walk slowly behind them.

Seeing this, Mrs. Li said to those men: "Tie Dan, if you have nothing else to do, please go to the village and let everyone in our village come down to the big locust tree in the center of the village. "

On weekdays, under the big locust tree in the center of the village, there are basically women’s houses. When everyone hears Qian Xinghua’s words, you will say a version and I will say a version after you go back. Maybe everyone will hear that everyone is saying something different. I thought they were putting on a show today, and it would be best if everyone came over to listen to what Qian Xinghua had to say.

Mrs. Li's worry is justified. The rumors of these idle daughters-in-law and mother-in-law have always been more and more mysterious, and they like to make up stories when they can't remember clearly, and they don't follow the truth.

Tie Dan and the others had to order to leave from the other side after encountering a fork, and went to the village to tell everyone to wait under the big locust tree in the center of the village, and listen to what Qian Xinghua would say.

Qian Xinghua listened to Old Madam Li's order and nearly gritted her teeth. The more people came to listen to her, the more embarrassing she became.

At this time, Qian Xinghua was a little glad that she had left Shanghe Village, otherwise she would not have the face to go out in the future, and these snarky women would not have to talk about her behind her back every day.

No matter how slow you walk, there will be a time when Qian Xinghua and the others reach the center of the village in Shanghe Village under the big pagoda tree, there are already many people standing in the dark, and they are about to catch up with Village Chief Bai to call everyone for a meeting When the battle.

Mrs. Li stepped forward, looked at everyone and said, "I invite you to come here today, because I want you to be a witness. Everyone knows that my second child is going to divorce the Qian family from Qiantan Village, but because my family The third child, Hugh Mu, did not come back this time, so the divorce letter has not been written for the time being, but Qian has already been sent to Qiantan Village by us. No matter what the reason is, she should not enter my second child's house again. "

Without telling what Qian Xinghua did, Mrs. Li looked at Qian Xinghua: "Mr. Qian, come here and tell me what you have done!"

Qian Xinghua gritted her teeth with hatred, she looked at the people in Shanghe Village who were all curious, and said reluctantly: "I went into the house today and took a wooden box."

Just saying this, she shut her mouth.

Old lady Li was very dissatisfied, she asked Li Chengli to lift up the wooden box for the big guys to see, and continued to say loudly: "This is the wooden box, let's take a look."

A wooden box with a lock came into everyone's sight. Looking at the wooden box, the people present probably understood why Mrs. Li was so angry. Obviously, the things contained in this wooden box were very valuable, otherwise Li Chengli would not Lock it with a lock.

"This box contains my second child's house deed, land deed and all the money he saved." Mrs. Li looked at Qian Xinghua coldly, "We originally planned to send Mrs. Qian to the county government to be imprisoned. But for the sake of the reputation of Erfang and the children, I asked her to come here and admit that she stole things in front of the villagers, and everyone should not let this woman enter our village again, even if she said she wanted to see the children."

In a few words, Mrs. Li explained exactly what Qian Xinghua had done, and also explained why they brought Qian Xinghua here to say these things in front of the villagers.

Everyone was surprised. Looking at Qian Xinghua, who lowered her head and was unwilling to speak, no one had the idea of ​​interceding for Qian Xinghua. If something so important in their house was almost stolen, they would probably want to give it away. The person who stole was given a good beating, and it was not enough to simply admit that he had stolen.

In fact, telling the story of Qian Xinghua's theft in front of the villagers has already affected the reputation of several children under her name. There is a mother with dirty hands and feet, and the children she raises will have a good reputation. how nice.

But if Mrs. Li doesn't tell everyone what Qian Xinghua did, she won't be able to swallow this breath. Instead of sending Qian Xinghua to jail in the county government, just let her say this in front of the villagers. He was already doing his best to save face for Qian Xinghua. As long as the people in the village didn't go out and gossip, people in other villages might not know about it.

In this era, in a village, the reputation of a person with a surname will affect each other. When everyone mentions it, they all say it according to a certain surname.

And between villages, two different villages are involved. As long as what people in one village do will have an impact on the whole village, people in other villages will directly talk about the people in a certain village.

Therefore, generally speaking, people will not bring out the embarrassing accidents in the village, and those who will say it are basically people or things that are worthy of pride.
