Chapter 150
The next day, He Tao took He Lian, who had been away from home for nearly ten days, and He Youliang, who had been away from home for 20 days. Arrived at He's house.
He Fuguo stood at the door and refused to let them in: "What are you doing here?! He Lian, He Youliang, you two get out of here, and other irrelevant people get out of here!"
As soon as Xiao Chen saw He Lian, she rushed over, crying and pinching her vigorously: "You cruel child, you know how to come back! How could you be so cruel and leave mother behind? Why are you so ignorant... ...Mother is doing it for your own good..."
He Tao rolled his eyes, and faced He Fuguo head-on: "I told you earlier, if you invite me, I won't come back if it's not for the sake of my little brother and sister."
"I invited you?! Get out!" Angry, he didn't care about the faces of both parties as before, as if he wasn't afraid that others would know their dispute, so he put his hands on the door frame to prevent He Tao and the others from entering.
He Tao didn't talk nonsense, and yelled in a low voice: "He Youtian, give it to me!"
"What did you ask Arita to do?!"
He Taoli ignored him, and continued to shout: "He Youtian, if you don't come out again, I'll expose the Debao restaurant!"
In less than three breaths, He Youtian came out with a look of panic.
As soon as he heard the words Debao Restaurant, he knew that the matter of stealing the prescription was exposed.In fact, when He Lian found out that Dahuangdi's family was going to the provincial capital, he had a vague premonition and was always worried, especially worried about He Tao's reaction when he found out.
He Tao said to He Youtian angrily, "You don't want to persuade your uncle, it's not good to talk about this kind of thing at the gate, right?"
He Youtian quickly grabbed He Fuguo's arm, and begged, "Uncle, let sister and the others come in!"
He Fuguo didn't know what was going on, and with a suspicious expression on his face, he reluctantly got out of the way.
After entering the house, He Tao was not polite, and sat down as soon as she entered, and Fu Shi and the three stood apart to her left, right, and back, so as not to hurt her when the He family was too excited during the conversation.
All kinds of confident He Tao opened his mouth as soon as he sat down: "He Youtian, I know you are familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics, but I wonder if you have read the laws of Daqi?"
He Youtian said: "I have read it."
He Tao raised his eyebrows and said, "Then you know the punishment for the crime of theft? You are very courageous if you commit the crime knowingly! I was shocked when I saw it at the time! Stealing more than one hundred silver, not only You have to return the property in full, and you still have to pay fifty bucks, and serve for five years! I heard that you still plan to take the childbirth test in February, but it seems that it can only be moved to five years later. It doesn’t matter, you are still young, hey, no Hey, I heard that people with a criminal record are not allowed to take the imperial examination, what a pity, what a pity, our He family finally produced a person like you who can study..."
"Don't scare people!" He Youtian suddenly waved his sleeves and said, "You are full of nonsense, what evidence do you have? If you don't have it, you are making a false accusation!"
He Tao took out a stack of papers and waved them in the air: "You are such a cunning person, of course I have evidence! The testimony of the shopkeeper Sun Debao of Debao Restaurant, at the end of June last year, he spent 500 taels to buy Baifu prescriptions , and the monopoly contract signed with me, the real recipe owner. He promised that if I go to the Yamen to sue someone for stealing, he is willing to testify in court!"
He Youtian looked at He Tao with a gloomy expression, He Tao looked at him without admitting defeat, the two looked at each other for a while, He Youtian suddenly laughed, and said with a proud look: "Big sister, Baifu is ours! The secret recipe of the He family, if I sell it, how can I steal it from you? Even you learned it at your mother’s house..."
He is the hope of the family, but He Tao is a disobedient daughter who is not filial or fraternal, and she belongs to another family. No matter what you say, the family will stand by him!If you want to bring him down with this, there is no way!
He Fuguo, who was standing around, looked at him blankly, the secret recipe?When did the He family have a secret recipe?
He Tao was so angry that he couldn't say a word, Fu Shi also frowned, this man's face is really too thick!
What they didn't expect was that He Youtian could be even more superb. Seeing that He Tao didn't speak, he thought he had shocked her, and said in an insatiable way: "And you are just a married woman, and you actually sell the secret recipe passed down from your mother's family without authorization. For the sake of blood relatives, I won't sue you at the Yamen, but you have to hand over all the money you got from selling the secret recipe!"
He Tao laughed back angrily: "I've seen it, it's the first time I've seen a shameless person like you!"
He Youtian seemed to have the winning ticket in his hands, and said slowly: "He Tao, it's still too late for you to repent, as long as you hand over the money, I won't pursue it!"
"Dream your big head!" He Tao stood up suddenly.
The family of them discussed for a long time yesterday, guessing how He Youtian would react, thinking that he would deny and deny, but no one thought that he would backfire!However, fortunately, their preparations are sufficient enough to deal with the situation in front of them.
He Tao pinched a stack of papers in his hand and said: "I have not only Sun Debao's testimony here, but also people who have eaten Momofu in the village, from Grandma Cheng, from Grandma Rong's family, from Carpenter Lin's family, from Lizheng's family... ...The most important thing is that the uncle at the ancestral house, Brother Youzhi, and the others all wanted to testify that Baifu was made by me two years ago! You said that you went to court, and the official believed your words. Or do you believe the testimony of so many people?"
She guessed that He Youtian would not give up so easily.
The complacency on He Youtian's face disappeared all of a sudden.That's right, if he really goes to court, it won't be like a family arguing, all the family will help him, and even the testimony of the family is the least effective, and the testimony of outsiders will play a decisive role.If he really went to court, then he would lose in almost nine out of ten cases!
He Tao continued: "Now the people in the ancestral house don't know that I want these testimonies to catch you, a family thief. You said that if the patriarch finds out the truth, according to the He clan rules, a thief like you will be expelled from the family. Those who are removed from the genealogy will be expelled from Rongshu Village. Are you sure you want to continue messing around with me? As long as you dare to say yes, I will immediately go to the yamen to hand over the paper!"
"I..." He Youtian muttered like a defeated rooster for a long time, unable to say a word.
He Tao considered all aspects, and he was powerless to fight back.Don't even think about fame, as long as this matter gets out, he won't be able to raise his head again in this life, no matter when he is a thief, a family thief, and his children are also small thieves...
He Tao turned around again and looked at Wang Qionghua, who was buried in the corner with her head blushing, and asked, "Qionghua, tell me, you have suffered so much, you were beaten until you lost your child, and you still insist on refusing to say anything." Where did He Youtian go, why Youtian wanted to cover it up, have you ever thought that it is actually retribution? You should have done something wrong for you, so you got retribution?"
Wang Qionghua suddenly raised her head.retribution? !That's right, A Tao was right, if they hadn't stolen her prescription, Arita wouldn't have traveled far, grandma wouldn't have been paralyzed, and she wouldn't have been beaten to miscarriage... Retribution, all retribution!The retribution has come to her child!
Only then did He Fu's family understand what was going on. It turned out that the son didn't meet a nobleman when he went out and stole the prescription from his cousin...
Seeing his son's distraught appearance, his heart ached unbearably, and he bowed to He Tao to plead for mercy: "Tao'er, your second brother knew he was wrong, and we will return all the silver that Fangzi sold to you, so please forgive him!"
As he spoke, he talked about He Youtian again: "Arita, hurry up, apologize to your big sister, and return the money..."
He Youtian was staggered by him and almost fell down. He raised his head and glanced at He Tao, finally bent down and begged dryly: "Sister, I was wrong, I shouldn't... you Just forgive me this time?"
He Youtian thought about it, then turned around and said to He Fuguo: "Uncle, help me, help me beg my sister, I hope she has a lot of adults, don't hold me accountable this time, I will..."
He Tao looked at He Fuguo coldly, and she also wanted to see if He Fuguo would really bow his head for this nephew.
He Fuguo did not speak, but stared at He Youtian in a daze.
He Fujia came back to his senses, turned around and begged: "Big brother, big brother, I'm just such a son, big brother, you can help him!"
Only then did He Fuguo say to He Tao: "Tao'er, we are all in the same family, please forgive him for this one time!"
He Tao didn't interrupt him, and asked after he finished speaking: "At this time, I am with your family again? When he framed me just now and said that I stole the family's ancestral secret recipe, why didn't you think that I was Your daughter?"
He Youtian hurriedly said: "Sister, I was deceived by lard, it's all my fault, I shouldn't talk about it, if you are angry, you can beat me..."
"Is this how you beg for help?" He Tao said coldly.
As if struck by lightning, He Youtian was stunned for a moment. After a long pause, he bent his knees and knelt down in front of He Tao, lowered his head and said, "Sister, I kowtow to you, please forgive me This time, please don’t sue me, and don’t tell people in the clan. I will be your cow and horse in the future, and I will make a grass ring in my next life to repay your tolerance.”
He gave in so simply, He Tao couldn't believe him even more.
He Youtian has brains, ideas, and the ability to act, and he can save face at critical moments.With this kind of person, as long as you have a bad relationship, you can't leave any room for it. If you don't get him to the point where there is nothing you can do, he will jump up one day and bite you again!She suddenly understood the phrase "If you don't die, I don't feel at ease" said by the characters in those novels.
However, their main purpose today was not to deal with He Youtian, she thought about it and decided to follow the previous plan.
"If you want me to forgive you..."
He Youtian hurriedly kowtowed again: "Thank you for your forgiveness, sister, I will never..."
"What about the silver? When will the silver be returned to me? 500 taels!"
He Youtian was speechless.
Fangzi sold it for 500 taels of silver, spent nearly 200 taels on the doctor’s leg, and spent nearly 100 taels on buying books after returning. Yue successively bought a lot of jewelry and clothes for Wang Qionghua, and now he has less than 100 taels of silver left. Where can he find 50 taels of silver to fill this hole? !
He Tao threw a piece of paper on He Youtian's face: "As long as you sign this contract, I can not pursue the money for the time being..."

The next day, He Tao took He Lian, who had been away from home for nearly ten days, and He Youliang, who had been away from home for 20 days. Arrived at He's house.
He Fuguo stood at the door and refused to let them in: "What are you doing here?! He Lian, He Youliang, you two get out of here, and other irrelevant people get out of here!"
