Female supporting roles rely on food to save themselves

Chapter 160
When Gu Xiang's voice fell, Ah Da was stunned, and suddenly raised his head to look at Gu Xiang, his heart was full of surprise and his eyes flickered.

When he was dazed, Ermu stepped forward and used skillful strength to hit him on the wrist. He took the contract and handed it back to Qiuli.

Gu Xiang smiled and said, "Tear it up."

Qiu Li gave one order and one movement, and pulled a few times lightly, and then tore up the contract.

Gu Xiang turned around and raised his eyebrows at Wang Zhixian again: "I'm sorry."

Wang Zhixian smiled: "Don't worry, this will be done, and it is guaranteed."

Xihuan Pavilion was half a street away from the county government office, so he immediately called the secretary to come over to do some work, and after a while, Qiu Li became a commoner.

Cai Momo's complexion changed suddenly, her eyes narrowed slightly, and she said sharply: "Wang Zhi County, you are..."

The word 'favoritism' was on the tip of her tongue but she couldn't get it out of her mouth.

Madam Cai's arrogance has always been conditional. Most of the time, she is a cautious person.

She obtained Qiuli's body deed, and the methods she used were not clean. When she knew that the young master was going to take a concubine from a brothel, she immediately thought of controlling this concubine first, so that people could use both kindness and power, so that With some tricks, he bought Qiuli from Xihuan Pavilion.

In her opinion, these methods are just common, but they are not easy to bring to the table.

Now Wangzhi County is removing Qiuli's citizenship without saying a word, which is of course illegal, but is this kind of thing rare?If you really want to calculate everything according to the law, the way they bought Qiuli...is not so legal.

Mammy Cai felt tight in her chest and couldn't breathe. She was the one who made others short of breath in the past.

"You, you...do you still have the king's law!"

She finally couldn't hold back and said angrily.

Wang Zhixian smiled: "This county has always regarded the laws of the country as heaven."

As soon as he finished speaking, his face suddenly sank, and he said sharply: "Cai's attack in public, almost forced the lives of the people in this county, morality is corrupt, and the national law does not tolerate it. Today, I will punish you with fifty rods, as an example to others."

The yamen servants on both sides pushed Mammy Cai down on the bench, the two people in front pressed her shoulders, and a stick went down behind her.

Cai Momo didn't react at all, her back was in severe pain, she let out a scream, and shouted: "...No, even if she is a good girl now, when I teach her, she is clearly not... Even if I am wrong,... "

"what!"

Before she finished speaking, she was hit by a stick again, her eyes turned white, her face was twisted, and sweat rolled down, but now she was aroused fiercely, "You!"

If it is said on the table, according to the current law, slaves cannot be killed at will, but in practice, if you kill a slave, it is impossible to make a fuss in the government.

Wang Zhixian thought for a while, nodded and said, "That's right."

Madam Cai breathed a sigh of relief.

Wang Zhixian frowned and said: "It's true that I was wrong. Mrs. Cai, as a servant, you beat and bullied your master's servant girl without authorization. Such a low crime is a big treason. How can fifty sticks be enough? Eighty sticks are necessary."

Madam Cai: "...I represent the old lady..."

"You dare to slander the lady of the current court, damn it, add another thirty sticks."

Not to mention adding another thirty canes, after only five blows, Nanny Cai was weak and trembling with pain, she could only groan, she couldn't speak, she just wondered in a daze why Ah Da and the other guards were so stunned. Say nothing.

They didn't even continue to fight with those yamen servants. Instead, they stood on the jade steps in a daze one by one, watching their noses, noses, noses, and hearts.

Cai Mama was so painful that tears streamed down her face, she felt great hatred, even Ah Da and others also hated her.

Gu Xiang blinked: "The mirror of Wangzhi County hangs high."

Li Chengfang looked at the chaos in front of him, stared for a moment, and recovered after a while, but was at a loss.

Did he take Qiuli as a servant of Li's family for granted like Nanny Cai, beating and killing her without any scruples.

But he also became angry from embarrassment: "Wangzhi County, even if Nanny Cai did not do it properly, she...Qiu Li was indeed bought by our Li family, she, she..."

Wang Zhixian said solemnly: "Mr. Li, even if the Li family bought Qiuli in a fair manner, then Qiuli must be a servant of the Li family, not this Madam Cai's servant, right? Or, Madam Cai?" Mama is also the owner of the Li family?"

Li Chengfang was at a loss for words, pressed his eyebrows for a while and said: "Okay, even if Nanny Cai should be punished, but Wang Zhixian took away the deed without my Li family's consent... Qiu Liliang, what is this?" reason?"

Wang Zhixian said solemnly: "Young Master Li is wrong, the subordinate officials did not make decisions without authorization."

Accompanied by the sound of the stick hitting the meat, Wang Zhixian's voice was calm, "This is clearly the meaning of the county lady."

Li Chengfang: "..."

Wang Zhixian said with a smile: "Not long ago, the matriarch of the county sent a letter to the subordinate, saying that she ordered the nanny around her to come to Shouling to pick up the granddaughter who was living abroad and return to Beijing. This Nanny Cai was sent by the madam of the county. Those who serve the little lady, the people she brings, and the money and things she brings are all given to the little lady by the county lady, right?"

When Li Chengfang thought of this, she became angry and refused to speak.

Wang Zhixian didn't mind either: "Now, this charming guest in the county lady's mouth, intends to return the deed to Qiu Li, but Mrs. Cai doesn't agree. So should I listen to the little lady, or should I listen to this Mrs. Cai?"

"There is nothing to say. Of course I listen to the lady. The Cai family bought Qiuli with the money given to the lady by the county lady. Isn't Qiuli the lady's maid? Then if the Cai family came forward to buy a house for the Li family on behalf of the lady The land, this house, this land, all belong to the Cai family?"

Mrs. Cai was almost fainted from the beating, and woke up again from the pain. Hearing Wang Zhixian's words, she exclaimed in astonishment: "What little lady!"

She wasn't really stupid, she looked up at Gu Xiang with difficulty, rolled her eyes suddenly, and finally passed out completely.

Gu Xiang blinked: "I always feel that trouble is coming."

She sighed, and first went to help Qiu Li who was staring at Cai's ecstasy.

Qiu Li was both happy and at a loss.

For many nights, she tossed and turned thinking about her future and couldn't sleep. The errands in Xihuan Pavilion would not last long, and getting married and having children was a big trouble for her background.

I searched high, but couldn't find a suitable one.

Searching for low places is always not reconciled.

But she really never thought that one day she would get out, she always thought, she is a weak woman, what should she do if she gets out?How to live, anyway, she doesn't know how to farm, can't do rough work, she can do a little needlework, her level is only average, and she doesn't have any skills for making a living.

She has been working as a maid all these years, and Miss Xixi treats her very well, but she lives in Xihuan Pavilion and doesn't need much money for food and daily life. Naturally, Miss Xixi doesn't give her much money every month. Saved less than 20 taels.

Qiu Li thought, before earning enough money to spend her whole life, she didn't have the courage to take half a step out of Xihuan Pavilion.
