Yipin Tianxia

Xianyuan Mountain has a radius of tens of miles, and there are seven or eight villages scattered here and there.

Most of these villagers make a living by growing tea. Those from ordinary families guard a few acres of tea gardens, roast and sell tea, and don't worry about food and drink. Those from better families will open tea houses and start businesses.

Some families have accumulated for several generations, and they seem to have become big tea merchants.Not only will they sell local tea vendors, but they will also sell goods from other places. Every village will have several such big families, which is very enviable.

In Shangyuan Village, the richest family is Bao.

I heard that his family has already moved their business to the surrounding big provincial capitals, and now the family's tea garden is just doing their duty to the children and grandchildren and guarding the ancestral property.

The Bao family married an official six or seven years ago, and married an official lady as his wife for the uncle of the family. It was a sensation in their ten miles and eight villages.

After all, if they can marry an official, in the hearts of the people, they will feel that the identity of the Bao family has taken a step further.

It's just that the official lady's life is not good. I heard that her father committed a crime and was beheaded by the emperor.The Bao family planned to send the young lady to practice in a temple and marry another relative.I heard that the new daughter-in-law is also a lady from the official family, and her status is even higher than the previous one!

Ordinary people don't understand these official affairs, but they can't stand some kind ones.Discuss in private, no matter how much you have committed a crime, and no official sent to arrest him, why should Yuan be assigned to the court?

Some who recognized Miss Yuan Pei even shed a few tears, that young lady surnamed Yao is really a good person with a kind heart.In the past few years, two sons and one daughter have been born for their family. Now the youngest daughter is less than one year old. If she really wants to send her mother away and welcome a stepmother, the children in front of her will be pitiful!

But no matter how grievous everyone is, it is always difficult to interfere with these housework.So at most everyone can only talk about it behind their backs, scolding a few words without conscience.

The Bao family wanted to send the eldest daughter-in-law away, so they sent her away, and wanted to marry a new man.Just marry the newcomer into the door.

The bride has only been in the house for two months, and when she was still gluey, she woke up from a nap this day, and suddenly found that the man was gone.

"Where did the uncle go?"

The servant girl replied honestly, "Master and those two young masters have gone to paint."

The new wife curled her lips, "What are you painting? I'm afraid I heard that someone can draw beauties, so I went to find out the source?"

The maid didn't dare to answer, and the new wife didn't feel good about it. She fiddled with the jewelry in a bored way, and came up with an idea, "Go. Bring those little bastards here. As a mother, I should also care about them." Yes. To save people from saying that I, as a stepmother, don’t care about things.”

The maid flinched when she heard that, but she didn't dare to disobey and went to get the book and the ruler.

This is an old trick of the new wife. Call the young master over to recite the handwriting. If he makes a mistake, he will beat the young lady at home, telling them to remember the brotherhood and brotherhood so that they can work harder.Once the two young masters want to protect their sister.Just the three of them fought together, and she stayed in the house for two months.The three lively and innocent children were beaten all over the body, and they were stunned.

The maid sighed softly, even the eldest and young mistress was sent away, she was just a servant, what else could she do?

But after a while, there was a woman back and forth, "The two young masters and the young lady were taken out by the uncle to paint together."

What?The new wife suddenly turned her face, "He, Bao Yiqing, is so courageous! He actually took him out for a tour without my back. What is he going to do? Come, prepare a car for me, I'll go find them!"

But even though she searched all over the hills, she couldn't find any trace of Young Master Bao and the children.Even the two young masters who came to paint also disappeared together.

At this time, the uncle of the Bao family who was sought by the new wife was at the foot of Xianyuan Mountain, in a cave behind the mountain temple.Next to him was his former wife, the Second Miss of the Yao family, holding three children and weeping bitterly.

"... I will admit how the uncle treats me. But didn't you say that he would treat the three children well? Look at them, what kind of beats have they had on them? If my sister hadn't come, They were beaten to death and no one knew..."

Bao Yiqing lowered his head guiltily. These days, he was so busy with his new wife that he was glued to his knees. He really didn't know that the three children would be so abused.But the point of the matter right now is not this, his eyes fell on the young master who claimed to be surnamed Zhuang, "Why did you tie me up? Are you from the Yao family..."

Ouyang Zhuang snorted coldly, "It doesn't matter who I am, what matters is whether you want to live or not."

Bao Yiqing was taken aback, and Second Sister Yao was also taken aback, "Master, thank you for saving my child, but he is my child's father after all."

Ouyang Zhuang glanced over, Yao Shiyi angrily pulled her sister away and said, "He is your child's father, but he is also the father-in-law who forced you to become a monk, and married a new wife to come back and try to kill your children! You still want to kill your children for this?" The kind of person begging for mercy, do you have to wait until the children's corpses are collected before you know what you're afraid of?"

Second Sister Yao's face turned pale with fright, and her hands holding the children felt tight.

The two older sons cried, "Mom, we don't want to go back again, that woman is so scary, she will beat us to death."

Bao Yiqing said anxiously, "How could it be? Father will protect you from now on!"

Yao Shiyi snorted coldly, "Then what about my second sister? What is she? You can use your lies to deceive others, but you don't need to use them to deceive us. My parents deserve what they deserve, but what's wrong with my sister? Do you have to drive her out of the house?"

Bao Yiqing got stuck again, and murmured, "But I'm married to someone, and she's also an official lady..."

"Damn!" Yao Shiyi became even more angry, and spat heavily on his face, "Aren't you telling the truth? Our son has already found out, that woman is just a businessman's wife. You took advantage of her because you were greedy for other people's property. The dead man hooked her up, and then took advantage of the accident in my house to drive my sister out of the house so that the woman could bring in the family property, right?"

Bao Yiqing was extremely shocked, "You, you all know?"

Suddenly, he noticed two extremely sharp gazes, it was Second Sister Yao looking at him with a look of despair, "Don't you say you were also forced?"

The virtuous and gentle in the past have now turned into a monstrous anger.

Bao Yiqing panicked, "Listen to my explanation!"

Yao Shiyi was not afraid of exposing her family's ugliness, so she said bluntly, "Second sister, do you still want to listen to his smooth talk? The man has no conscience, just like our father, why did he take you and your mother into his heart? If he hadn't watched His family gave you a lot of betrothal gifts, how could your father betroth you to this kind of person? Now he sold your mother and child because of other people's money. If you forgive him today, who can guarantee that he will not take your children again in the future? To exchange for silver?"

Second Sister Yao took one more look at the three innocent children and her face turned blue.

At this time, Ouyang Kang received the news and rushed here with Cui Heng.

Yao Shiyi tactfully took her sister away. Bao Yiqing felt that something was wrong and wanted to ask for help, but the guard next to him punched him in the stomach so hard that he couldn't make a sound.

This kind of scum, the guard has wanted to beat him for a long time.

He didn't speak, so it was convenient for Ouyang Kang to ask questions, "I'm not interested in listening to your nonsense, you just need to tell me honestly, what is the income of your tea garden, and how much is handed over to the government, but it was ignorant of the government. It’s just how it works in the middle.”

Bao Yiqing was in extreme pain, and couldn't help but change his face in shock. Looking at Ouyang Kang's icy and beautiful face, he suddenly exclaimed, "You are the consort of Princess Jiashan! Are you really here to check the tea tax?"

Ouyang Kang raised his brows lightly, his expression was gentle, but his tone was cold, "It seems that you are not unprepared. You have two opportunities now, one is to tell what you know, maybe I can let you live The second is to hold on and not say anything. I will count to ten and choose for myself.”

When Bao Yiqing was trembling and wondering whether he should say it or not, Ouyang Kang had already started counting, "One, two, three..."

Suddenly smelled a bad smell, Bao Yiqing was so frightened that he peed his pants.

Even the guards frowned, but Ouyang Kang didn't seem to smell anything, and said calmly, "If you dare to faint once, I'll let someone stab you. Now continue, four or five..."

"I said, I said!" Bao Yiqing's psychological defense completely collapsed, his whole body went limp, and he began to confess.

Tong Chaoyi glanced at Ouyang Kang secretly, admiring him in his heart.

Although this county horse looks like a woman, she is really a hard-hearted master.Look at this ruthlessness, if you go to the Dali Temple of the Ministry of Justice in the future, I don't know how many people will be frightened, no wonder the emperor sent him here, there is some reason.

After Ouyang Kang was satisfied with the answers he wanted and left, he specially appointed two people to take Bao Yiqing's family back.

When it was dark, the new wife lit a torch and was about to organize the servants to go to the Yamen to report the crime, but saw the man, his ex-wife and three children all come back.

The new wife was taken aback for a moment, and then she was furious, "Bitch, do you dare to come back?"

Snapped!A heavy slap hit her face.Second Sister Yao looked at the new wife who had been slapped dumbfounded, and said with extreme resentment, "This slap is for you to remember who is the big and who is the young in this family."

The new wife covered her face and looked at Bao Yiqing in disbelief, "Bao, are you dead?"

Bao Yiqing didn't die, but he was sullen like a dead person.

The new wife watched helplessly as Second Sister Yao took a few sticks and distributed them to the three children, and said, "How much she beats you, you go and beat them back! With Mother here, no one can bully you!"

The child has little strength, but it is still very scary when he hits someone hard.

The new wife was quickly beaten until she howled like ghosts and wolves. Second Sister Yao didn't seem to hear her, she just ordered the servants, "Close the door, don't disturb the neighbors."

From the next day, Mrs. Bao Jiaxin disappeared, and was replaced by the original wife that Uncle Bao "specially" brought back.

This is a good thing. Of course the folks will discuss it, but no one will care about what is involved in it.

It's just that Bao Yiqing didn't dare to mess with that kind-hearted Mrs. Yao who started to manage the household from now on. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
