reborn idle wife

Chapter 16
"That's enough!" Dong Li's face turned blue, and in front of Zuo Zhan, the two of them started pinching each other, completely embarrassing the Mo family: "Give me both of you!" Quiet a little!"

It has to be said that although Dong Li is not very old, he still has a bit of momentum when he gets angry, at least he is much more majestic than Mo Youran, who is flushed with anger but adds a bit of beauty.

The two women were still jealous of their master. Although the fight was inextricable, after Dongli scolded, they obediently dispersed, but they looked at each other unconvinced, as if they were going to eat each other.

There were three bloodstains on Mrs. Zheng's face, and she covered it with her hands, and she looked at the woman with incomparably annoyed eyes. If it wasn't for the fact that her man didn't live up to provoking so many women, how could she be so unlucky?

Dongli took a breath, and his servants already had the wit to move three chairs over for them. After the three sat down, tea and snacks were brought up immediately.

Well, it's time to drink tea, eat snacks and enjoy the farce.

"Let's talk!" Dong Li stroked the fine porcelain teacup with one hand, glanced at the two women, and pointed to the woman: "You talk first! The Zheng family don't interrupt, you can talk after she finishes talking, and she is also not allowed." Cut in."

Madam Zheng opened her mouth, but finally closed it. She covered her face with her hands and looked at the woman who disfigured her without saying a word.

The woman heard the hostess call herself to speak first, wiped her tears, stepped forward and kowtowed: "My family is a tenant of the Mo family, and my man's surname is Zhou. My man was sick from overwork a few years ago. He left early and stayed behind." I and Ran Ju, mother and daughter, depend on each other for life."

Zuo Zhan and Mo Youran both listened very carefully, but Dong Li was watching the change in Mrs. Zheng's expression, and told her intuitively that this woman should not be underestimated. The Zhou family was talking about her misfortune, and this Mrs. Zheng had a calm expression on her face. , just covered his face with his hands.

".Zheng Wanger is a lustful person, and Mrs. Zheng hasn't given birth to children these years, so she carried my family's Ran Ju into the door in a small sedan chair." The Zhou family said and began to wipe away tears, "From then on, the Zheng family This poisonous woman is worried about it. Every now and then, she asks someone to find fault with my Ran Ju. In the cold winter months, she asks her to wash clothes, and her hands are frozen like that. My poor girl dare not tell Zheng Wanger, because she is afraid of this After the woman found out, she tossed her in different ways, and dared not tell her that she was pregnant, for fear that she would lose the child."

Zheng Wanger, who had already been called over, was stunned for a moment while listening, Ran Ju is pregnant?When did this happen?

"Who knows, this woman has a good hand and eyes, and she knew it. When the young lady came to the Zhuangzi, she encouraged Zheng Wanger to say that she would scare the noble lady, and forced my daughter to be sent out of the Zhuangzi, and she would not be sent back to her mother's house. It was placed in a house, and there was not even a servant around, I got the news and rushed over, but I didn't even see my daughter for the last time!" Zhou said lying on the ground and pounding the ground with his fists, Crying so heartbreakingly, some of the daughters-in-law next to her couldn't help but have red eye circles.

Zheng Wanger looked at his daughter-in-law with teary eyes, did she really do this?He was past middle age and had no heirs. How could he bear the concubine's concubine's death so quickly?
Dongli pondered slightly, nodded: "I see, from the Zheng family, do you have anything to say about these?"

"Miss, I have been wronged!" Mrs. Zheng kowtowed tearfully, "I admit that my man took a concubine and I felt uncomfortable, so I intentionally punished Zhou Ranju. However, my family is a woman, and the man has a new marriage. How could it be possible not to be jealous? But, with the conscience of heaven and earth, I have no right to be bold and harmful! Miss, you must uphold justice for the slave family!"

Well, I honestly admitted my jealousy, and rejected the charge of harming others, Dongli touched his chin, feeling a little interesting.

"You evil spirit!" The Zhou family was furious when they heard it, and rushed forward regardless, but was stopped by several daughters-in-law, who yelled and cursed, but it was Mrs. Zheng who covered her. The look of speechless tears streaming down his face made people feel more sympathetic.

Zuo Zhan coughed: "You keep saying that she killed your daughter, but you must pay attention to evidence for everything. Do you have evidence to prove that she is the murderer who killed your daughter?"

The Zhou family was stunned for a while, and then suddenly walked over on their knees: "Who else could there be if it wasn't her? My Ran Ju has no grudges against anyone else, only this bitch hates her deeply, besides her anyone?"

"So you guessed everything out of thin air?" Dong Li frowned, and slapped the armrest of the chair displeased: "Absurd! How dare you come here to make trouble based on this little guess? They're all like you, How many unjust, false and wrong cases have been found in the Yamen?"

The Zhou family flinched a little, and caught sight of Mrs. Zheng's slightly curved mouth from the corner of their eyes, and suddenly became angry, and tore her hair: "You wicked woman! I knew you were in collusion with the boss! Our Zhou family Even though you are poor, you are not easy to mess with! I will go to the Yamen to sue you!"

Mrs. Zheng fought back without hesitation: "Don't slander people with your mouth! You want to pour dirty water on my head without evidence! Your daughter has no grievances with others? A joke! I don't know who is doing it! In that yard, she accuses Sang, scolds Huai and secretly persecutes other concubines! Don’t think that everyone else is blind and deaf, it’s retribution for her to end up like this!”

Zheng Wanger is more than one concubine?Dongli glanced at the clothes of the Zhou family who could not see the original appearance, and lowered his gaze calmly. Although his body was covered with dirt and was torn in several places, he could still see the texture. Come on, it should be the best Monaya.

How could a peasant woman afford to wear this kind of material?Although there are not many hairpins scattered from the hair, they are also made of red gold. Who can tell that this is a servant?It's like the posture of a landlady.

She is just the mother of Zheng Wanger's concubine, so she can dress like this. What is the living standard of those so-called concubines?If every concubine's family is like this, and Zheng Wanger can afford such expenses, how much family property should he have?

"Be quiet for a while and listen to my question." He glanced lightly at Zheng Wang'er in the crowd who didn't know what to believe and slept, and the corner of Dongli's mouth twitched coldly: "What did your daughter do before she died?" Something different?"

The Zhou family thought for a while: "This little lady doesn't know, how can the country people know so much? But when my family Ran Ju lived in the Zhuangzi, he was nourished with bird's nest and ginseng soup every day. Something happened, maybe it was the Zheng family who secretly withheld her status!"

Ginseng soup, bird's nest?Or daily?

The faces of the Mo brothers and sisters suddenly darkened, the Zheng family heard something was wrong, and when they wanted to stop them, the Zhou family had already said it cleanly, and at the end they still doubted her, secretly Alleging that Zheng's embezzled silver taels were used as good, which harmed her daughter.

"Guard Zheng, this matter is quite unusual." Mo Youran took over the handling right now, opened her eyelids and looked coldly at Zheng Wanger, who was already sweating in the crowd: "A concubine only eats ginseng and bird's nest every day." It seems that the life of the Zheng family is much more luxurious and rich than that of my Mo family."

Zheng Wanger knelt down on the ground with a thump, wiping her cold sweat while quickly turning her head to think of an idea. At this moment, all concubines and children were forgotten, and she was even more resentful towards the Zhou family. If she hadn't suddenly Running around and making a fuss, how could he be suddenly discovered?
"Don't be in a hurry, Guanshi Zheng, think about what to say slowly, I think it's better to ask others first, there will be no one who knows the food and clothing expenses of Guanshi Zheng's family?" Mo Youran said to these servants The filthy things done behind the scenes was already beyond control, and he asked people to pull Guanshi Zheng to the side and kneel down, not to let anyone run away, and then looked at the silent servants with a half-smile: "I don't know , in the days when we are not here, you people are living a good life, everyone is very nourishing, no wonder there are always people in the surrounding villages who want to come here to work here, it turns out that the oil and water are rich enough!"

The Zheng family has been domineering and blessed for so long, of course it is one thing to accumulate power, on the other hand, the reason why these people dare not come out to testify against them is naturally because they have taken advantage of it.

"Don't talk?" Mo Youran laughed angrily, "Okay, that's good, our Mo family can't afford such people, so we should get rid of them early and replace them with a group of honest and honest ones."

Some of the timid people in the crowd began to waver. Although the Zheng family had benefited them all these years, the big head had not been stolen by them, and he hadn't fallen much. It was too late for them to be buried with them. My mind was floating, and I planned to save myself.

Madam Zheng's face was ashamed, she never expected, she just dealt with a little goblin, and this matter turned out to be a big deal, it's all the Zhou family's fault!Thinking of glaring at the Zhou family woman with hatred, if she hadn't made a fuss, how could such a thing have happened?
"Boss, don't listen to the Zhou family's nonsense!" Mrs. Zheng kowtowed with blood on her face: "The Zhou family wants to blackmail us because she sees that her daughter is gone. Pull us into the water! Boss, we are both responsible people, otherwise Madam wouldn’t ask us to come here to take on this important task, you have to be aware of it!” He secretly glared at the Zhou family, stinky If the mother-in-law dares to spoil our affairs again, don't say that there will be no property to take in the future, be careful of your life!
What a mouth!Dongli laughed angrily: "Are you planning to use Madam to suppress us? People's hearts are separated from each other, and it is the most unpredictable. You may have been honest and honest when you were in front of Madam, but after a long time, outside The life of the dominant family is going so smoothly, there is no guarantee that there will be no disagreement. Let me ask you, what is the rent set by our Mo family's Zhuangzi?"

Mrs. Zheng couldn't help trembling with her arm holding the ground, thinking to herself, could it be that this young lady who doesn't touch the sun knows the tricks on the rent: "The rent of our Mo family is all set by the madam. , it's fifty percent."

"Fifty percent?" Dongli picked up the tea on the table and poured it down, and the steaming tea was still scalding Zheng Niang, Zuo Zhan just frowned, but heard Dongli angrily pat the armrest of the chair: " Do you really think I'm a three-year-old child? Can I let you coax me to have fun? [-]% is the level of the affluent areas in the south of the Yangtze River, and the poor areas in the north have always been [-]% rent. Are you bullying me when I am young and ignorant?"

Most of the servants around were locals, and their eyes widened in shock. [-]% of the rent was already considered low, so it turned out that the owner actually set [-]%?Then why did Guanshi Zheng and his wife always charge [-]% of the rent?Which one of them is not farming, thinking about how much their family has been exploited by these two couples over the years, they all grit their teeth and stare at them viciously, wishing to bite them to death one by one to relieve their hatred.
