When Lin Qu asked his parents to give money to Lao Lin's family, he thought that he would report to the officials later, and all of these would be returned.Then it can also create an image of filial piety and being bullied by Lao Lin's family for parents.

Of course, it is true in practice.

It's just that before the truth of the matter is revealed, if his parents really stick to it, everyone will only scold his parents. Even if they find out the truth later, they still won't have a good impression of his parents. , so he has considered everything in advance.

The situation was exactly as they thought, his parents were not affected badly, and after hearing the amount his father said, the county magistrate asked Lao Lin's family to return all the money.

"The 23 taels you took, plus the compensation, the total is 100 taels. You take out a total of 100 taels to compensate them."

When the county magistrate said this, Mrs. Lin was stunned: "100 taels!"

But before she protested, the county magistrate looked serious, and there was absolutely no room for objection: "The money was settled after investigating your family. I know that you can afford it. This is the court, not for you to buy it." A place to bargain for food." He tilted his head slightly, and said to the master standing beside him: "Find someone to inform their other family members and bring the 100 taels of silver here, or after a while, they will send you the money." They're all in jail."

Although he is an official, he is still a young man after all, and he has this enthusiasm in his bones.

The county magistrate knew that if the money hadn't been taken out at the court, the matter would have disappeared after he went back.

"Yes." Master hurriedly bowed in response.

Turn around and arrange for the servants to find someone.

In Lao Lin's house, Mrs. Lin, the eldest couple and their children are still setting up a stall in the town.

After finishing the order, the disposal of the old Lin's family was not over yet. The magistrate continued: "This old lady is old and has a need to plead for mercy, so she won't give up. The other two are Pull it over and play thirty big boards."

"No, grandma." Lin Qiong tightened old lady Lin's hand in fright.

There were still so many people watching outside, and it was extremely bad for his little brother to be spanked in public. What's more, Lin Qiong trembled in his heart whenever he thought about being beaten to a bloody state.

But the county magistrate was impatient to repeat, and threw down the order sign on the table, and immediately the yamen servants on both sides moved into action, prepared the benches, and pressed Lin Qiong and Zhao on them.

Mrs. Lin, who was about to pounce on her, was also restrained, but she couldn't control her constant crying and cursing. In this kind of place, most yamen servants are used to it.Many ordinary people don't understand the law, and it's useless to say that no noise is allowed in the courtroom, and they get used to it over time.

Anyway, for a while.

Thirty boards hadn't been finished yet, and the rest of the old Lin's family who had heard the news from others rushed over, and the yamen servants let them in. The county magistrate saw Mrs. Lin, and then remembered that this one should also be punished. , hurriedly waved his hand and signaled to his subordinates: "This one will only hit ten boards."

Before Mrs. Lin could react, he was pushed onto the bench by two yamen servants, and his buttocks were hit with a slap.

Xu Qiu and the others were dumbfounded by this operation.

The county magistrate felt that it was no big deal. When Old Lin was pretending to be sick and extorting money, Mrs. Lin, although he did not directly come forward, was always at home. As the head of the family, he had no intention of stopping it. By default.So the county magistrate simply regarded him as an accomplice.

After all, if it was a woman or any junior who didn't speak out in Lao Lin's house, then that's fine.

Because people with these identities may not dare to violate the authority of the family.

But Mrs. Lin is a man and the head of the family. He is in charge of the whole family, so he has nothing to do with it.

After the board was finished, Xu Qiu stepped forward again and said, "My lord, I still have one thing to ask."

"Speak." The county magistrate nodded.

Xu Qiudao: "Old lady Lin has always treated my father-in-law very harshly in the village, and my father-in-law is weak-tempered, even if the family is separated, they are still bullied. Go to the house of my father-in-law and mother-in-law, search for silver, and take away everything that looks good."

"In this case, even if I got the money today, I'm afraid they will take it away immediately after I return to the village."

"Therefore, I ask my lord to divorce my father-in-law and mother-in-law. Of course, they raised my father-in-law after all. The things that were planned at the time of separation and will be sent to the elderly every month in the future are still valid."

In fact, in this kind of family separation in their area, after the separation, apart from the money and food that should be sent every month as agreed at the beginning, everyone generally treats them like ordinary relatives.

Of course, during the holidays, they will also give something to the elderly to show their filial piety.

But the old Lin family is obviously the kind of shameless, even if the family is separated, they still forcefully intervene, insisting on holding all the benefits in their arms, I'm afraid you can live a better life.That's why Xu Qiu talked about breaking off the relationship. Only after the relationship was broken, the next time the old Lin family dared to forcibly go to the Lin family to grab something, it would be illegal. It would be fine to beat him out directly or put him in prison.

You no longer have to be restricted by this identity.

"Is that so?" The county magistrate looked at the people watching the trial outside the courtroom.

He knew in his heart that what Xu Qiu said was right, but in the end it was a trial, so he couldn't just know it in his heart, and then it would be settled directly.

So many people are still watching.

He asked this question mainly for everyone to hear: "Are there any people from the same village as them standing outside?"

Of course that is too much.

Since the yamen servant came to the village to arrest Lao Lin's family, a lot of people from the village followed to see the situation, and there are a bunch of them standing outside right now.

After the county magistrate asked a few times, several people spoke out about how Lin's second family lived in the past, the comparison between Lin Qu and Lin Qiong's life, etc., and so on.Is there a full statement, there are others to add.

The county magistrate nodded after listening, "That's it, then it's like this, Mrs. Wang, Lin Guangfu, do you two have any other opinions?"

The two shook their heads in a daze. Although Wang had wanted to get rid of Lao Lin's family for a long time, she also knew that some things were impossible, but she didn't expect that it would really come true this time.

And Lin Guangfu never thought about cutting off relations with his own parents, but he instinctively knew that this would be good for their family.

As for the opinion of the old Lin family, that is not important.

The young county magistrate directly ordered the matter, which was extremely straightforward, which won a lot of applause.

Because the big house of the Lin family came directly from the stall in the town before, so they didn't bring much money, so the group of people didn't leave after the trial was over. When they went back and brought the 100 taels, they left through the yamen. .

It was at this time that Xu Qiu saw Gu Chengxiao rushing over.

This is also normal, after all, Gu Chengxiao is a controlled person, and he often has to do some hard work in the quarry, and he rarely has free time, so it is normal to receive the news late.

There was no expression on the other party's face, he only nodded slightly when he saw Xu Qiu, and then headed towards Lao Lin's house.Xu Qiu responded, but didn't pay much attention.

It was really a surprise for Lin Qu to break up with the old Lin family.

Before, he only wanted to make the other party suffer, but unexpectedly, everything simply exceeded his expectations.

After leaving the yamen, a large group of people walked together. He held Xu Qiu's hand, and he jumped up and down excitedly. It was rare to have the lively feeling of a child. Believe it, "We really broke up with Lao Lin's family?"

Xu Qiu smiled and nodded: "It's broken."

Lin Qu looked at his parents again, Wang's eyes were red, and he nodded excitedly: "It's over, it's over, I don't have to listen to them anymore, our family will be fine."

Mrs. Li also congratulated her in-laws beamingly: "This is really good. In the future, you should be tougher. If they really want to be tougher, you can come to us. Our four big men from the Xu family will help you when the time comes." You go and clean them up and see if they still dare to rob things."

Mrs. Wang couldn't say anything, and could only keep nodding in agreement.

Lin Guangfu didn't say a word, he was still in a trance, looking at his wife with red eyes, his happy brother, and his two children who were holding hands but also excited, everyone was happy His expression and his heart also gradually settled down.

This was the end of a major event. Firstly, Mrs. Li led a large group of people to the medical center, brought a basin of water, and Mrs. Wang and Lin Guangfu tidied up a little, and then everyone went to the restaurant together.

On such a happy day, we have to eat something delicious to celebrate.

After the meal, the whole group strolled back. Mrs. Wang and Lin Guangfu rejected Mrs. Li's invitation and did not stay in the town anymore. At such a time, it is certainly not easy for Xu Qiu to let his father-in-law and mother-in-law go back alone Yes, he, Lin Qu, and his two younger brothers, sent them back to the village together.

It also happened that the family could chat again along the way, so that the two elders could sort out their emotions.

After sending Wang Shi and Lin Guangfu back, Xu Qiu and the others returned.

In the days that followed, it was back to normal.

However, perhaps the continuation of this happy event made Lin Qu happy for a long time.

Because of the struggle with the other two family forces before, Father Xu once asked Xu Qiu and the others to pay attention to safety, but after a few days passed, nothing was wrong.And one night, Xu Qiu knew that things should come to an end.
