As Ma Liu Niang thought, the government officials sent by County Magistrate Guo could not enter Ma Si's yard at first.
Ma Si knew in advance that Ma Liu Niang had reported to the police, and thought he was going to let the officials arrest him and put him in jail. He was so frightened that he immediately sent his younger brother to find many thorny plants and planted sharp treated bamboo slices.
It took a lot of effort from the government officials to bring Ma Si to court.
The law is mandatory and he has no choice but to do it!
By the time they brought the people here, the sun was almost setting.
Back in court, Magistrate Guo asked his subordinates to light candles. It seemed that he would not be able to have a good rest tonight.
"Ma Si, is it true that your sister Ma Liuniang sued you for misappropriating the six acres of land that Ma Daqiang left for her?"
Ma Si looked at Ma Liuniang with cold eyes, "Appropriation? Since ancient times, the son inherits the father's property. Is she worthy of being a married woman?"
Zhou Li was standing next to the Yamen servant. After hearing Ma Si's words, he sighed heavily.
Before Old Man Ma passed away, he specially sent someone to find him, in order to prevent Ma Si from taking all the property. Unexpectedly, Ma Si was so domineering that even though he knew that Old Man Ma had made a will, he still took all the property.
He doesn’t keep a single cent of his sister’s property share. Is he still a human being?!
Ma Liuniang is not a vegetarian, she is a strong mother, not to mention that Lin Zhongchun taught her some words during the intermission.
Ma Liuniang said: "Although I am a married woman, you and I belong to the same father, and when my father made the will, there was a witness there, and it must be recorded in the book. Why should I
Can't get my share of the inheritance? Isn't Xiaohai your nephew too? You are so tolerant!"
Raising her head, Ma Liu Niang looked at Magistrate Guo with the complaint in her hand: "Your Majesty, the women know that the law stipulates that the father dies and the son inherits the system, but it is also said that if a will is made for disposition, there is no need to do so.
It is stipulated by the law. I hope you will understand it clearly!"
When Ma Liu Niang was talking, County Magistrate Guo kept his eyes fixed on Lin Zhongchun. This little girl was quite smart and used the law to rule the law.
When Ma Si heard Ma Liu Niang's rebuttal, he glared angrily: "I am your brother and the only remaining male in the family. Who knows what the old man thinks, and who knows whether you have deceived the old man secretly. I don't know about this will."
recognize!"
Zhou Lizheng walked out, bowed to County Magistrate Guo, and said: "Your Excellency, County Magistrate, with my humble position, I can testify that Old Man Ma's will was written by him voluntarily, without any coercion and unwillingness. Everything was in accordance with the procedures."
There’s not even a cent left…”
Ma Si hurriedly interrupted Li Zheng: "You have always disliked me. Maybe you and Liu Niang secretly planned to divide my property. How can you count?"
"Have I allowed you to speak?" Magistrate Guo took a picture and asked, "I have my own judgment on the right and wrong. Zhou Lizheng is older than you. Don't you know the principle of respecting the old and loving the young? Again
Ma Liu Niang’s child is in need of money now when he goes to school. As his brother, it’s okay if you don’t help him. There is a will, but you still dare to embezzle the inheritance privately. You are really - audacious!"
Some things were obvious, and he was not a fool, so he could clearly see what was right and wrong.
County Magistrate Guo found out the records about Old Ma's will that had been found earlier and spread them out on the table: "In the spring of the 24th year of Qingchun, on January 19th, Ma Daqiang asked Li Zheng
Go to the village chief's home and make a will. His property includes a house, which will be owned by Ma Si after his death. Of the nine acres of land, six acres will be owned by Ma Liu Niang, and the remaining three acres will be owned by Ma Si. If there is any dispute, the will will be settled according to the will.
Words and deeds. Written by Ma Daqiang."
After reading out what was recorded in the file, Magistrate Guo asked the handyman to bring the rubbing file to Ma Si, ensuring that he could see it at a distance.
Ma Si turned his head and didn't even look at it: "You are just bullying me for being illiterate. Anyway, I don't know it and I don't understand what is written in it. It's not necessarily a lie to me."
Of course he knew in his heart why the old man wrote like this. He just heard that Liu Niang's husband was a loser who only knew how to drink. He spent all the family's money on wine, so that his grandson could not go to school.
He knows everything, but why?
The married daughter threw away the water. The old man scolded Liu Niang every day when he was alive, but he didn't treat Liu Niang any better.
The third aunt said that all inheritance in the family should be inherited by men. As the only male in the family, why can't he inherit all and give part to Liu Niang?
Lin Zhongchun stood in the crowd and watched what happened in the courtroom. Ma Si was just relying on the county magistrate to do nothing to him, so he pretended not to understand.
The reason why Magistrate Guo became the magistrate is that he naturally has his own way of doing things. He took a picture of the prison wall and said: "This is the court, not a place for you to act mischievously! Lie, if you think I will lie to you,
, just go to my superior and sue me. Ma Si, do you have anything else to argue about this case?"
When Leng Buding heard the sound of the gavel and what County Magistrate Guo said, Ma Si was uneasy.
He went to sue County Magistrate Guo? How dare he!
Do you really want to give Liu Niang something that should belong to you? Ma Si shook his head, he was unwilling.
Ma Si wanted to struggle further: "Sir, Liu Niang is a married woman. She did not fulfill her filial piety to my father before his death. How can she be qualified to inherit my father's inheritance? Sir, what do you think I said?
Doesn’t make sense?”
County Magistrate Guo did not answer Ma Si's words, but asked Ma Liu Niang: "What do you think?"
"Everything must be based on evidence. If Ma Si can provide evidence that I am not qualified to inherit the inheritance, Liu Niang will admit it." Miss Lin told her that as long as she had accurate evidence, she would get what she wanted and she would not lose.
Yes, absolutely cannot lose.
Magistrate Guo nodded, "Zhou Lizheng, has the land deed in Ma Si's hands been transferred and registered?"
Zhou Lizheng shook his head. Every time the property in the village needs to be transferred and registered, it has to go through his hands: "I have never told you, sir."
County Magistrate Guo understood clearly: "The property has not been transferred and registered, which means that the ownership of the things will return to Ma Daqiang. In this case, according to Ma Daqiang's will, Ma Liu Niang will be given her share. Ma Liu Niang, what are you doing?
Follow Zhou Lizheng to register the transfer. If Ma Si troubles you in the future, just come here and report it to me. Ma Si, do you have any objections? According to the laws of the Jing Dynasty, you can refute, but whether you listen or not, I will
I have my own judgment, or do you want to disobey me?"
Disobedience? It’s a big deal to have such a big hat on your head!
Ma Si shook his head and waved his hands, feeling very dissatisfied: "Sir, Liu Niang is marrying outside..."
