Everyone was lighting torches and watching Lin Heliang rolling around on the ground to avoid it. Wherever the stick hit, a bruise immediately appeared on the skin.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Luo Hongyue is very angry. Looking at her attitude of wanting to beat people to death, is she treating her lover, not her enemy!
Someone reacted and immediately stepped forward to intervene.
When Chu Yunli saw that he was good, he stopped, and gave Lin Heliang a final hard knock on his calf. He only heard a tooth-breaking "click" sound, and then Lin Heliang's earth-shattering wails rang out in the yard.
The people from the Lin family finally rushed over. Seeing Lin Heliang lying on the ground unable to get up, He was heartbroken and reprimanded: "How can you be so cruel to a husband and wife for a day and a hundred days of kindness?"
Chu Yunli held the stick and answered seriously: "He broke into my house in the middle of the night and wanted to steal something. After he was discovered, he changed his story and said he had a date with me. I dare not accept such a deliberate attempt to harm my kindness!"
The rest of the Lin family had already stepped forward to help him, and found that after struggling to help him stand up, Lin Heliang was so painful that he was covered in cold sweat. His face was pale against the torch, and he could not speak at all. His right calf did not dare to touch the ground at all.
He couldn't stand upright on his own, and his whole body was leaning on the person supporting him.
This is... a broken leg!
The Lin family father and son looked at each other in confusion. Mrs. Lin also noticed that something was wrong with her grandson and immediately shouted: "Call the doctor quickly."
There were many people in the Lin family, so someone immediately set up a horse-drawn carriage to go to town.
Lin Hecang hurriedly chased after him. When Mrs. Lin saw this, she felt slightly reassured. She looked at Chu Yunli with eyes that were tempered with poison: "If Heliang is beaten, I'm not done with you!"
What's the big deal about speaking harshly?
Like no one would.
Chu Yunli swung the stick and looked at the onlookers: "Everyone saw it with their own eyes. He climbed over the fence and threw a bone to my dog. I don't know whether he was trying to make money or not.
Turen, you have bad intentions after all. Don’t say you are done with me, I am done with you now!"
She looked at Sister-in-law Li who looked worried next to her: "Sister-in-law, could you please ask my eldest brother to go to the city to report it to me? My house was almost robbed. I think you will take care of it."
Now is the critical time for the magistrate to be promoted. He will also get to the bottom of petty thefts to show his fairness.
Lin Xueyi went to the Yamen once, but she really had no fond memories of that place.
This time Lin Heliang broke into someone else's house at night. With so many people in the village testifying, even if the Lin family didn't want to testify, there were others, such as the Li family, who would definitely testify in court.
Luo Hongyue didn't want to sue, but if she really did, Lin Heliang would be thrown into jail.
Because of Lin Xueyi's relationship, the Lin family had seen the world. Knowing that this time it was really Lin Heliang who was in the wrong, he immediately became anxious when he heard Chu Yunli say that he was going to report to the official.
He took two steps forward: "Hongyue, you can't be impulsive. Don't mention your past relationship as husband and wife. Just for the sake of your children, you can't really report it to the government. Let your children have a father who is in jail.
, is it nice to hear or say? Haven’t you calmed down yet after He Liang was beaten like this by you? For the sake of the child..."
Chu Yunli laughed angrily: "It's because he is the child's father. I can't hold him accountable if he steals something? Does that mean that if he kills someone one day, I have to find someone to take the blame for him?"
"If you ask me, he has no good intentions towards me. It would be better to put him in jail and get rid of him once and for all."
He: "..."
She finally discovered that the current daughter-in-law was sharp-tongued and she couldn't speak out at all.
Mrs. Lin looked puzzled: "Even if Heliang shouldn't climb over the wall, does it mean that she should hit people?"
Chu Yunli asked: "If he doesn't climb over the wall, will I beat him?"
Nowadays, after a thief is caught, it is normal for him to be beaten. Although it is indeed a heavy blow to break the leg, isn't there still a mistake?
When it came to the court, Chu Yunli insisted that she had lost her hand and no one could do anything to her!
Lin Xueyi stood behind the crowd. She hadn't gone out much since she came back. Such a big thing happened today, and she couldn't sit still. At this time, she said, "What are you going to do to stop suing my brother?"
Chu Yunli was quite satisfied: "Finally, a sensible person has appeared. To be honest, my things were not stolen, but it is true that he almost ruined my reputation. It is also true that someone climbed over the wall in the middle of the night and was admitted to the hospital. It is also true that I was scared. As long as
If you compensate me with enough benefits and promise not to cause trouble to me in the future, I won't sue you."
There is nothing that can be done about it. There is a law at the moment. If a child wants to take the imperial examination and become an official, there must be no blood relatives in the family who have committed crimes. From murder and arson to petty theft, as long as it is recorded in the Yamen
I no longer have the qualifications to take the imperial examination.
The two children are still young, and with Chu Yunli here, they are definitely not ordinary people. If they really have a talent for reading, but they are disqualified because Lin Heliang is now in prison... this will not be beautiful.
This can be regarded as the restriction imposed on Chu Yunli by the world.
It doesn't matter, even if he is not sent to prison, it will still make his life difficult. Not to mention anything else, just this leg, with the current medical skills, Lin Heliang will have to be unable to get out of bed for two to three months.
The Lin family has different ideas, and Lin Xueyi was kicked out by Wanfu. However, she has been a maid for many years and has seen the world. She also feels that she has good looks, so she is not willing to live in the village for the rest of her life. If she wants to marry well, she must not have
A brother who has been in prison! Thinking of this, Lin Xueyi hurriedly spoke before everyone else: "What do you want?"
Chu Yunli blinked: "Ten taels of silver."
He: "..."
Her heart suddenly throbbed.
After experiencing the last conflict with her daughter-in-law when she was away, no one can understand Luo Hongyue's methods better than He... As long as she wants, there is nothing she can't get.
Upon hearing this number, the faces of the Lin family changed drastically. Even the people in the village looked at each other in shock.
This is too cruel.
Lin Xueyi frowned and tried to bargain: "Our family doesn't have that many..."
Chu Yunli seemed to be smiling but not smiling: "I don't care if you do or not? Anyway, if I can't get the money before dawn, I will go to the Yamen to file a complaint."
Everyone: "..."
When did money become so easy to earn?
On one side, Lin Heliang will go to jail, and on the other side, he will get ten taels of silver. If other people in the village were asked to choose, they would choose the latter without hesitation.
Anyway, Lin Heliang just climbed over the wall and was admitted to the hospital without doing anything. He came back in two or three years at most. He earned ten taels in two or three years... How could this be possible by one person? The roast chicken shop that opened in the town recently
Not even close.
There are also a few members of the Lin family who want to choose the latter, such as the second wife and the old couple.
But for He, she didn't want her son to go to jail. In fact, she doubted that her ex-daughter-in-law had seen the money she had hidden. Otherwise, how could she have emptied the Lin family's fortune as soon as she opened her mouth?
Should I give this money? Or should I not give it?
The person who least wants Lin Heliang to go to jail is Lin Xueyi. But she also knows that her family's savings are only so little now. If they spend them all, she will have no money to buy makeup and clothes.
If a woman wants to be beautiful and to impress a man, she must not only be naturally beautiful. She must also dress appropriately.
The Lin family fell silent.
It was hard for the onlookers to talk to each other. They all knew that Luo Hongyue was not easy to mess with or persuade, so how could they dare to ask her for mercy?
In fact, what Lin Heliang did today was so unkind. He broke into the yard of a woman who lived alone in the middle of the night. Although the two were once husband and wife, that was all in the past. Luo Hongyue took her alone
I have been raising my two children for a few months, and I have to go back early.
Since they knew she wouldn't reply, why would they try to persuade her? Besides, they couldn't ask for the things Lin Heliang did.
Lin Heliang was covered in cold sweat from the pain, and felt a layer of moisture on his back. Seeing everyone inside and outside the yard being silent, and the Lin family not speaking, he suddenly became anxious: "Mom, I can't go to the prison."
"I know!" He immediately understood what her daughter meant after her sleeve was tugged on her.
If the son goes to jail, the daughter will not be able to marry into a good family. If the daughter does not marry well, the Lin family will be finished for the rest of her life.
It is said that wealth should not be revealed. Even if you have it at home, you cannot give it directly. Ms. He looked at the crowd and said: "To be honest, I have five taels at home... My family is unfortunate, and I encountered such a bad thing. Please help me."
Help me. I will definitely return it in the future."
Chu Yunli always felt that she was the one who was scolding her son. Seeing that the Lin family was about to give her another sum of money, she didn't want to argue with her about it.
As the old saying goes, helping people in need does not help the poor.
Although the Lin family is not poor, everyone is poor!
Whose money was not collected through hard work? Why should it be used to lend it to the Lin family? The most important thing is, can the Lin family still pay?
Furthermore, the old couple of the Lin family are very old, and even the He couple are no longer young. Who will repay this debt in the future?
Lin Heliang and Lin Hecang are two brothers. Ask yourself, who is willing to help his brother pay off such a large debt? When the old man is old, if Lin Hecang doesn't help pay it off, what can Lin Heliang do on his own?
It was such a huge bad debt that could not be recovered at first sight, so everyone was stupid enough to lend it out!
For a time, the onlookers looked at the sky, the earth, and the scenery. Although there was no scenery at night, they just didn't look at the Lin family in the middle.
Lin Heliang didn't know the family's savings, but he knew that his wife took away most of the family's savings, maybe all of them. Otherwise, his family would not let him marry anyone back.
Seeing that she couldn't borrow money, Mrs. He felt even more painful. But she really didn't want to take out all the money in the family, and wanted to struggle again. Furthermore, she forced everyone to borrow money. She also wanted everyone to hate Luo Hongyue and her son.
The man immediately choked up and said: "I really don't have any at home. Do you really want to force him to go to jail?"
Everyone remained silent. It seemed that the scenery was getting better. They were all looking at it with great interest. But they didn't look at the Lin family.
Lin Hecang was pulled several times by his wife, and he couldn't help but said: "My eldest brother did something wrong and deserves the punishment he deserves. But I don't admit that he did something wrong. He will repay this debt himself in the future."
Those who couldn't save face and wanted to borrow some money didn't say anything when they heard this. Whose money didn't come from the strong wind, so how could they give flowers to outsiders? Wouldn't it be delicious to buy meat for yourself?
But Lin Heliang could hear it and answered: "Mom, you can't ignore me. I only jumped over the wall after listening to your words! If you don't save me, I will go to court. Don't blame me for telling the truth."
."
He: "..."
Everyone: "..." It turns out it was the elders who ordered it!
