Village Flowers and Female Scholars

After Xie Yan took the deed, he bowed to Cai Chu and said, "Uncle Cai, we can't do this deed without you. My mother and brother and I have been suffering for so many years, and we finally have our own in the future." A safe place."

Seeing that she knew how to be polite, Cai Chu felt a little comforted, and then he waved his hands and said, "It's just a matter of saying something. You bought the land yourself with your own money. I really can't help you with this."

Xie Yan smiled wryly and said: "People in the village regard the three of us as scourges, and now we can stand up and say something for us, we are very grateful."

After speaking, there was a look of sadness on his face and he said: "Uncle Cai, the Cao family can't stay any longer. It stands to reason that my mother is already a married woman, and now she has a land deed, and she is separated to form a female household. The conditions are also met. But the Cao family will definitely have a lot of obstacles, I am afraid that there will be a lot of quarrels at that time, and I beg Uncle Cai to look at the pity of our mothers and say a few words."

Now that the land deed is in hand, and thinking about what the Cao family did in the past, Cao E knew that the separation of the family was an impossible thing to turn back. With a plop, she took Xie Yuangu to the ground and kowtowed to Cai Chu: "Little lady is now I don't ask for anything, I just hope that the two children can have a good place to go, not to be bullied, to eat enough and to wear warm clothes. In the past, failing to protect them is already the biggest sin. I beg Li Zhengneng to show mercy. Help this time."

To Cai Chu, helping with the land deed was just a matter of going through the needles, and it didn't cost much, but when it came to the separation of the family, it took a lot of energy.

With the Cao family's consistent urgency, it is not difficult for Cai Chu to see what the family wants to do next. It is nothing more than finding a buyer and selling them. If he helps Cao E, mother and son, it will undoubtedly block others There is no way to make money, not to mention that it is difficult for an upright official to decide on family affairs. He himself is just a small Lizheng, and he doesn't get a salary from the court. There is really no need to mess with such an unreasonable family.

As for Cai Chu's hesitation, Xie Yan, who is the person involved, can actually understand, no one wants to provoke such a show, even if this matter goes to the yamen, the magistrate may not take care of it, maybe he will dismiss it hastily thing.

Xie Yan said: "Uncle, I know your concerns, if the three of us mothers do not live well after the separation, and end up begging everywhere, the yamen will definitely blame us, maybe the Cao family will re-accept the three of us If you want to go back, then you will be no longer a human being."

"Actually, to tell you the truth, in the past few days, I went up to the mountains to find wild goods before dawn every morning, and sold them in the town. In less than half a month, I had already earned nearly two taels of silver. Otherwise I don't have the courage to ask you to help me look at the homestead. Think about the entire Shangyan Village, who can make so much money in such a short period of time? As long as I am given enough opportunities, how can I sell just Wild goods, I can get the money to buy land under such harsh conditions of the Cao family, if you let me do it freely, how can it be this point?"

"It's a pity that the Cao family is short-sighted and trapped us with a few acres of Susukida. Now they are thinking of selling us because of Fang Wenbo's death. Once their wish is fulfilled, our family of three will live like life in the future." In hell, uncle, can you bear it? Why don’t you spend some time and say a few words for us now. In the future, our family, Gu’er, will have a future, and we can bring a few catties of wine and meat to visit your hometown during the holidays. Wouldn’t it be a good thing? pile!"

When Xie Yuangu heard what elder sister said, he quickly kowtowed to Cai Chu and said, "Yuangu will be filial to Uncle Cai when he is successful in the future, and ask Uncle Cai to save my mother and elder sister."

At such a young age, his eyes are full of pleading, and his eyes are filled with tears, which makes people feel unbearable.

Cai Chu was not hard-hearted, so he hurriedly helped the mother and son up.

Zhuang Wan, who had been watching for a long time, finally said: "I happened to encounter the incident of Mrs. Jin going to sell wild goods twice, and they all came back with full rewards. This matter is true. Uncle, you might as well think about it and cultivate a good seedling. It's a lot more fulfilling than cutting the sprouts."

Xie Yan only met Zhuang Wan once, but she didn't know that this person had actually met him twice, and even helped him a lot, so he was a little surprised.

Hearing her voice, Cai Chu glared at her angrily and said, "Since you know they are in such a difficult situation, why did you provoke that Fang Wenbo? I haven't even asked you about the bandits. What's going on? , Now the village is full of uproar, even the private school can't continue, how can I explain to your father when you are like this."

Zhuang Wan coughed slightly in embarrassment and said, "The matter of that surname Fang is a long story, but if it is really said that I had an affair with him, it would really be unfair to me."

Cai Chu snorted: "I have been picking and choosing for so many years. This one is not good and that one is not good. I don't believe you will look at that dead ghost of the Fang family."

Granny Yu listened to what they said, and interjected, "Ah Chu, why don't you trust your eldest niece? She hasn't done anything out of the ordinary all these years."

Cai Chu was completely dumbfounded now. Although Zhuang Wan's father had been dead for many years, his influence in the village did exist as a magistrate of a county during his lifetime. The cause of Zhuang's father's death varies. Some people say that the offender was framed by others, and there are different opinions, but Cai Chu received his favor when he was young, and now that Yu Po speaks, he dare not say a word.

"The matter of family separation is not entirely up to me. When the time comes, I will definitely invite the Thirteenth Master to go with me. In the past, Wan'er, a female scholar, would have to go and see, but now Wan'er has gotten into trouble with Fang Wenbo. Sao, I'm afraid no one will listen to her anymore, I don't know which way his ass will swing with his dog temper."

Shangyan Village was a famine a long time ago, and refugees moved to this place and finally settled down. Therefore, many surnames live together, unlike other villages, most of them are people with the same surname.

And this thirteenth master is the oldest old man in the whole village. He has lived for a long time and seen a lot, and naturally he has gained some insights. As he gets older, he will be called on to judge right and wrong in the village. In addition to the thirteenth master and Li Zheng being in place, the most knowledgeable people in the village should be called to judge together.

Who is the most educated person in the village is naturally a scholar, but Zhuang Wan has always been low-key and too lazy to take care of these trivial matters in the village, so she rarely participates in it, so the most famous one in Shangyan Village is only a few miles away. Zheng and the old thirteen.

"The old thirteen is stubborn, he has a bad temper, and some people flatter him a lot, and he really thinks that the whole Shangyan Village belongs to them, but no matter what, the affairs of the village are still in the hands of Ah Chu. Don't give him too much face," Yu Po chattered authentically, "When does Miss Jin want to separate?"

"The sooner the better, the later will change. Since Uncle Cai is free today, we will go directly to Cao's house later."

Thinking of Mrs. Cao looking at her creepy eyes last night, Xie Yan felt chills down her spine. In this era of free population trading, there is no confidence at all. She can't even guarantee her own safety and freedom. She feels too insecure. up.

Xie Yan thought in her heart, now that the land deed is in hand, she can basically be sure that Cai Chu is on her side, and only the thirteenth master is left. Although the original owner has seen this old man a few times before, he has a bad temper and a high-spirited look. The appearance is not very easy to get along with.

However, the soldiers will block the water and cover it with earth. No matter what, the battle of family separation must be won.
