Chapter 144 Don't mess with him

Tian Lizheng shook his head, "Third sister, do you know who was the matchmaker for Sini and the Qin family's elder brother to reconcile?"

Tian Chen snorted coldly, "I know, isn't she the new foreign girl in your village, the one named Lin?
What a nosy person!The boy from the Qin family was so poor, but she actually tried to make peace with him.Did she take advantage of the Qin family boy? "

Tian Lizheng shook his head again, "No, it's her man!"

Mrs. Tian Chen blinked, "Her man? Who is he? A big man who is also in charge of keeping matchmakers and pulling women?"

"You didn't come to the second and third daughter's full moon party that day, so you didn't know that he was the seventh uncle of the county magistrate." Tian Lizheng said.

"The county magistrate's seventh uncle? Real or fake?" Tian Chen opened his eyes wide.

Her husband's family has a higher status than her mother's family.

If her brother and sister-in-law were celebrating their birthdays, or if their family was building a house, she would definitely come, and she would even bring her son to show off.

But she didn't want to come to a small full moon party for a nephew's wife who was giving birth to a girl, or a third girl.

With her status, the nephew-in-law is not worthy of inviting her here.

I just found a random piece of fabric and asked the person who picked up the guests in my natal village to bring it to my natal home.

"Of course it's true. Liu Captou from the county magistrate's office said it. Are his words false?" Tian Li was regretting that he didn't reveal Li Shen's identity in time to his third sister, who had always acted recklessly.

This third sister, relying on her marriage to a good husband, never looked down upon other people.

Mrs. Tian Chen rolled her eyes, still disapproving, "So what? The emperor still has poor relatives. Zhao has been in the country for a hundred years, and the descendants of the ancestors of the emperor's branches have the same status as us.

What about the county magistrate’s cousin?You are so awesome, how can you live in the village?Most likely they were poor relatives whom the county magistrate despised, so he just had to come to the house to identify them, right? "

Tian Li was sullen, "Poor relatives are also relatives! Anyway, you should put down your temper and be polite to me when you meet the county magistrate's Qitang Shumu Langjun!"

There aren't any big shots in our village, but here we finally have the county magistrate's uncle Qitang. You can't offend someone and cause trouble for me. "

Seeing that her brother was angry, Mrs. Tian Chen stopped talking back, "Okay, okay, I won't offend him. Anyway, I don't live in this village and I can't even see him, so how can I offend him? Don't worry, brother."

"Tenari Masaru!"

The two were talking when someone shouted loudly at the gate.

Tian Li was looking back when he saw four men on horseback stopping at the door of his house.

Tian Lizheng immediately walked over with a smile on his face, "Ah, it's Mr. Liu and Mr. Bai County Cheng who are here. They have been waiting for you for a long time. Please come in."

It was Capt. Liu and Bai Xiancheng, the county magistrate's assistant, who came.

Behind the two people, there were two government officials.

Tian Chen, who had been arrogant just now, said that the county magistrate's seventh uncle was nothing more than this, but when he saw the Yamen servant, he was so frightened that he quickly stepped aside.

When Tian Li was welcoming the four people into the main room and calling for tea, Mrs. Tian and Chen ran away in a hurry.

Tian Li was looking back and saw Tian Chen getting into the mule cart at the door and about to leave.

He shook his head secretly and ignored her.

Mrs. Tian Chen came to talk to Tian Lizheng. Tian Po hated this sister-in-law and deliberately sat in the back room doing needlework without showing up.

But at this moment, someone came from the county government office. Tian Po did not dare to sit in the room all the time, so she immediately came out to greet them.

Everyone entered the main room and sat down.

Liu Captou said, "The field is in full swing. Qin Dalang is traveling slowly on a donkey. He may arrive at night. A few of us came ahead on horseback. The county magistrate said that the matter is urgent and we need to find out the cause as soon as possible."

Tian Li was nodding, "Yes, yes, we must find out early. There are still relatives of mine in Qinjia Village. They lost two acres of land all of a sudden. They are all worried to death."

Because the matter was important, a few people only had a cup of tea and then followed Li Zheng to Qinjia Village.

Qinjia Village is now out of order. Li Shen is the master of Master Song's family and is temporarily in charge of neighborhood disputes in Qinjia Village.

He acted fairly and handled things very skillfully, and he solved the problem of a family of three sons who were divided over their homesteads.Suddenly, the people in the village looked at him with admiration.

When Liu Captou and his party saw Li Shen, they all saluted, "Seventh uncle."

Li Shen asked the children to review their lessons on their own. He walked outside the house with a cane and raised his hands to them, "You arrived in time."

"Your Excellency received your letter and did not dare to delay. He immediately sent us." Bai Xian Cheng said with his hand.

When the Song family saw someone coming from the county government office, they all came together to greet him. Even Mr. Song, whose condition had just improved, came to present to Prime Minister Bai with the support of his wife.

"The adults please make the decision for the little ones." Mr. Song had been writing the pleadings for the past few days, and now he was busy handing over the pleadings.

Li Shen handed the field register with the source of the problem to Bai Xiancheng.

Bai Xian Cheng took it and looked at it carefully.

The more you look at it, the more you frown.

"Lord County Magistrate, we stayed up late and checked for several days before we found out. Every household's fields have been re-measured," Tian Lizheng said.

"Mr. Bai County, how should we deal with this matter? Everyone in the village is waiting for the result." Li Shen said.

After learning that people from the county government were coming, many people from Qinjia Village came to Master Song's courtyard one after another.

They knelt in front of the main door of Master Song's house, "Please, sir, make the decision for the common people!"

County Magistrate Bai nodded, "Before I and the others went out, the county magistrate told us to do things impartially. When we find out the facts, we will give you justice. Where is the noble Qin Wu from Qinjia Village? Bring him up for questioning. !”

Song Dalang came out and said, "Master County Magistrate, I am here."

He pushed Qin Wugui out of the woodshed.

When the villagers saw Qin Wugui, they all became excited again.

The one who was close would just kick him over.

Those who were far away scolded him severely.

Qin Wugui's mouth was stuffed with cloth. He wanted to talk back, but he couldn't.

Being besieged by others, I had to keep dodging.

"Let him speak!" Bai Xiancheng said.

Song Dalang pulled off the cloth from Qin Wugui's mouth.

Qin Wugui immediately said loudly, "Master County Magistrate, I cannot be the only one punished for this matter!"

Li Shen narrowed his eyes, "Who else is participating?"

"My mother-in-law." Qin Wugui said.

"Hahaha." Tian Lizheng laughed, "Your mother-in-law and you are not from the same family? Could it be that she made money and gave it to other men?"

"Stop sophistry! I don't care if you are still your mother-in-law. If you take it for yourself, I will spit it out!" The people in Qinjia Village also shouted angrily.

Bai Xian Cheng pounded the table, "Quiet, quiet! Listen to my decision!"

People immediately stopped making noise and looked at Bai Xian Cheng together.

"According to the laws of our dynasty, those who embezzle other people's property will be punished with one-tenth of the total property, and will be fined with twenty sticks and sentenced to three years in prison. They will also be ordered to return all the stolen property to others! What Qin Wugui embezzled was Grain, if he cannot produce it, he will be compensated according to the current price of grain!"

People cheered that Bai Xian Cheng handled the matter fairly.

Bai Xian Cheng looked at Li Shen and said, "Mr. Mulang, how do you think I handled it?"
