Chapter 205 The dispute between relatives and friends (5)
However, the specific use of the land is not something Lin Zhongchun can control.
When they arrived at the Yamen, Luo Chun and Zhang Juan stood in the middle, while Peng Shaobai sat on top wearing official uniform.
This is not a court hearing, it is just a simple mediation interview, so it does not require all the officials to be present, just one or two thoughts are enough.
When Lin Zhongchun came back, Peng Shaobai had already understood the basic facts from the two women and had a clear understanding of their requirements.
Lin Zhongchun bowed his hands, saluted, and said: "Sir, after investigation, I learned that the land disputed by Luo Chun and Zhang Juan did belong to Luo Chun's family at the beginning. Zhang Juan lent the land to her mother-in-law to live in, and built the land.
Although they own the house, it ultimately belongs to the Zhang family. According to the new laws of the Dajing Dynasty, a married woman has no right to dispose of the property of a family with the eldest son. Therefore, Luo Chun, as the daughter-in-law of the only male member of the Zhang family, has ownership of the land.
.”
"What does it mean that a married woman has no right to deal with it? If I get married, I will no longer be a member of the Zhang family? What's more, where my mother-in-law lived before, the bricks and tiles were all bought by us and were built with time and effort.
Why don't things belong to me?" Zhang Juan immediately retorted.
The situation in front of her was clear, but she just didn't want to give up the piece of fat on her lips.
"The facts are clear. Do you think that if you say a few more words, the ownership of the land will belong to you?" Luo Chun sneered, "Zhang Juan, everyone in the village who is older than me or close to you knows that things should be
Who do you belong to? You deceive yourself so much, it really opened my eyes."
"Bah bang bang, stop arguing." Peng Shaobai slapped the table a few times and said, "The matter has been investigated clearly now, what's the point of continuing to argue. Mr. Lin, you will go to the new litigation department later and draft an announcement with them.
Then the people will be notified of the ownership of the land."
"Sir," Lin Zhongchun said with cupped hands, "the old lady of the Zhang family, Luo Chun's mother-in-law, and Zhang Juan's mother said that the land should be taken back to the state. Neither of them has the right to distribute the land, leaving it to the Yamen to use it themselves.
"
Peng Shaobai raised his eyebrows slightly. It's interesting. As expected, he is still hot as an old man. A difficult problem was thrown to them at once. Whether it was to distribute the land or take it back for national use, it would arouse public opinion.
He thought for a while and said: "Since the old lady of the Zhang family has a commission, let's handle this matter in accordance with the new laws of the Dajing Dynasty. Litigation Master Lin, are the new laws of the Dajing Dynasty strict? After the death of her husband, does the old man have the right to dispose of property?
"
Lin Zhongchun immediately searched in his mind for the provisions of the new laws of the Dajing Dynasty: "Article 365 of the new laws of the Dajing Dynasty, if the husband is widowed and there is no male in the family, his wife has full power to dispose of the property. The widowed husband has full power to dispose of the property.
If there is a male child in the family, the right to dispose of the property belongs to his son."
Peng Shaobai nodded, thoughtfully: "In other words, Luo Chun's husband has full authority to dispose of the land?"
Lin Zhongchun affirmed his question: "Yes."
Zhang Juan frowned and cursed: "Am I a child of the old Zhang family? Why? I took care of Zhang Guangyu when I was a child. Now that I have grown up, I don't benefit from it at all. I am a loser and I don't have to pay for it."
Is it like this? That bastard can get all the preferential treatment just because he is a man, but I will always get less benefits than that bastard just because I am a woman. I don’t accept it!"
Yes, Lin Zhongchun's heart was touched. But this is an eternal truth. If you want to change it, you can't change it. You can only act according to the so-called "principle" that has been passed down.
However, although she agrees with Zhang Juan’s views on men’s and women’s rights, this view cannot be applied to current land disputes.
Zhang Juan got married, and it was her brother, Luo Chun's husband, who supported the old man.
It is one thing that she failed to fulfill her support obligations, but the most fundamental reason is that she borrowed a place from Luo Chun, so she has to act according to the principle of repaying the loan and borrowing again is not difficult.
Peng Shaobai had his own opinion, "The laws of the Dajing Dynasty have stipulations. Zhang Juan, do you have any objections?"
"A civilian woman has no objections." How dare Zhang Juan say that she has any objections? The new laws of the Dajing Dynasty were the emperor's wishes. Doesn't her opposition to the laws mean that she opposes the emperor?
"That being the case, you have to clean up your belongings within ten days. Anything that exceeds the deadline will belong to the Luo Chun family. An announcement will be posted within three days. Once posted, it will take effect immediately." Peng Shaobai waved his hand, "This is the end of the matter. You can go back."
"Yes." Luo Chun was very happy. It was his own place. Now that he has it back, his son's wedding can go smoothly, and he is very satisfied.
Zhang Juan's expression was completely opposite to Luo Chun's. She was unwilling to give in, but what else could she do besides not being willing to give in?
The two of them had different thoughts and left the Yamen one after another. Peng Shaobai looked at Lin Zhongchun who was still standing there, stood up, and walked over, "What's wrong?"
Lin Zhongchun: "I'm a little confused."
The matter was solved easily, but there was always a trace of doubt lingering in my heart.
