The Jiao family had not been prosperous for many years, so the head wife, her own mother, was of low background and had not read much.
She usually only uses money and power to oppress others. In her eyes, anyone who is not as good as the Jiao family is a pariah.
But she never knew that the untouchable she called him had filed an imperial complaint a few days ago and directly fucked a county magistrate. The Jiangnan family was severely reprimanded by the emperor and the powerful people from the north, and suffered a lot.
Otherwise, she would not have asked Hu Laosan to inquire about the information. After all, he was originally a fellow villager in the same village, so it would be easier to get closer to him. Mrs. Jiao was still nagging
, but when she saw Marquis Dingbei coming in angrily from the outside, she was startled, quickly got up and asked, "Why is the Marquis here, but Hong Jun is in trouble again?"
Qiang's brother-in-law, Marquis Dingbei, looked even worse.
He really regrets marrying the Jiao family. This is not his help at all, but a group of wastes that are holding him back!
He ignored his mother-in-law, glared at Mrs. Jiao, and asked sternly, "Have you done anything stupid again recently? Have you gone to provoke someone named Cui?"
Mrs. Jiao's face turned pale in fright, and she didn't understand. How did I know this?
"Um, what is the Lord Marquis talking about, can I not understand?"
At this time, Mr. Wen and Liu Zhiheng also came in, followed by the personal guards carrying Hu Laosan and Wu Gouzi's wife.
Liu Zhiheng smiled and said, "Mrs. Hou won't tell you that you don't know these two people, right? Especially this Hu Laosan, you personally ordered him to send you to find out the news!"
"Why are you here?" Mrs. Jiao retreated subconsciously. After a few steps, I didn't want to see Hu Laosan's miserable face.
Liu Zhiheng sneered, "We don't want to come either, but it's obvious that Mrs. Hou's hand is too long, so we can only go to the door with a knife and help Mrs. cut off the extra length."
Mrs. Jiao was so frightened that she hid in Dingbei. Behind Hou, "Master Hou, I really didn't do anything. These two slaves were newly bought by Zhuangzi. I don't know them at all."
"I don't know them. You actually know that they are new ones?" Liu Zhiheng No longer wanting to complain, he turned to the dark-faced Dingbei Hou.
"Master Marquis, I'm not telling you that you have such bad taste. Even if you and my sworn sister reconciled, you wouldn't find such a fool. If you have such free time, why don't you sew a jumper? I have to kill you. Cuckold! Do you think the Marquis looks a lot like that long-lived tortoise?"
Marquis Dingbei turned pale with anger and wanted to speak, but Mr. Jiao got there first.
"How dare you insult our Lord Marquis!"
Unfortunately, before she could finish speaking, Marquis Dingbei turned around and slapped her.
"Shut up, idiot! If it weren't for you, I would be in such a mess today!" Dingbei Hou stepped forward, picked up the knocked down Jiao, and wished he could eat her alive.
"When Cui was in Kyoto, I always sent someone to watch over her. She had no chance to leave Zhuangzi. How could she secretly get pregnant and give birth to a girl? She got pregnant on the way to escape, but she hasn't given birth yet! How much water did you get in your head? , so I thought she was cuckolding me!"
"Master Hou, wuwu, I just saw her holding that child, and it looks very similar to her! I just wanted to find out secretly, but I didn't do anything! "
Seeing that she couldn't hide it anymore, Mrs. Jiao didn't dare to defend herself. In fact, she wasn't sure, so she wanted to ask around and try her luck.
If it is true, wouldn't it mean that she has caught a big clue, a clue that can immediately allow her to take revenge and get back all the Cui family's property.
Who would have thought that when this matter was exposed, the most angry person would be the Marquis!
Could it be that the Marquis still has nostalgia for Mrs. Cui?
Thinking like this, she felt even more aggrieved and cried even more sadly.
"I am also thinking about the Marquis. I feel sorry for the Marquis who has been wronged. How could the Marquis do this to me?"
Dingbei Hou saw her crying so hard that he kept saying that for his own sake, he had no choice but to take action. He left her behind and turned to Mr. Wen, who had been silent.
"Tell me, how can you stop and stop biting me?"
"That's what Mr. Hou said," Mr. Wen smiled contemptuously, "I am the censor, and my job is to report the news. Hou. It is true that I am greedy for military rations and salary, and is nepotistic. These are all facts and well-founded. How can it be said by the Marquis that it is retaliation?"
Marquis Dingbei gritted his teeth with hatred, "Tell me, what do you want?"
"It's very simple." Mr. Wen nodded at the ground under his feet, "How can you allow others to sleep peacefully next to the bed? What's more, this person has a heart like a snake! Let you This new lady should get out of here immediately. This Zhuangzi will be returned to my junior sister's name, so this is her apology."
"No!" Mrs. Jiao and Mrs. Jiao shouted almost at the same time.
"This is our family's dowry for our daughter, why do you snatch it away?" Mrs. Jiao almost wanted to step forward and tear her apart, but she was also afraid of the big and round nurses behind Liu Zhiheng.
Mr. Wen couldn't bear to pester him any more, so he stood up and spoke harshly.
"Get out of here immediately. If you dare to delay even a moment, I will kill your Jiao family and your good son-in-law without a burial place! Don't think that I don't know about your Jiao family's evil deeds of forcing people to die and buying farms by force!"
Mrs. Jiao His face turned pale immediately, Zhuangzi's background was indeed not clean.
But the house was kept secret, and the original owner's family was also dead. How did this person find out!
As soon as Marquis Dingbei saw his mother-in-law's face, he knew that things would never get better.
This person named Wen may have been investigating for a long time.
This time Jiao's plot against Cui just gave him an excuse.
"Pack up your things and leave quickly!"
Marquis Dingbei pushed Cui. Seeing that Jiao was still hesitating, he became angry, "Idiot, if you want to keep Zhuangzi, just make peace with him!"
Jiao heard this. , finally realizing that he was afraid, he hurried back to the inner room, quickly collected two boxes, asked the maid to carry them, and finally took out a deed.
Dingbeihou read it and handed it directly to Liu Zhiheng, then took Jiao and left.
Passing by Mr. Wen, he finally said, "Remember to keep your promise."
Mr. Wen snorted coldly and agreed.
When Mrs. Jiao saw that her daughter and son-in-law were gone, she felt a little embarrassed, but she wanted to make a fuss and take Zhuangzi back.
Mr. Wen only glanced at her and said, "The usury money Mrs. Jiao released is thirty thousand taels, right?"
Mrs. Jiao took a breath of air and ran out crawling. Occasionally, she looked back at Mr. Wen, as if she saw a demon. generally.
Liu Zhiheng was amused. He shook the land deed in his hand and sighed helplessly.
"Is the Marquis of Dingbei blind? He chose a scholarly family when marrying a new wife. Why did he find such a stupid family?"
Mr. Wen's eyes were somewhat happy. He almost arrived in Jiangnan and started asking about the Marquis of Dingbei. Naturally, He cannot let go of his new wife and family.
Unexpectedly, this family is like sea cucumbers, full of clues, and they can get a lot of them without even bothering to search.
It just so happens that they don't know whether they will live or die, and they must bully the junior sister again, so this gave him a chance to vent his anger!
"Brother, I'll leave this to you. I'll go back and talk to my junior sister. Remember, I'll send all the useful stuff over at Broken Gold Beach as compensation. After all, this Zhuangzi will be sold soon, and my junior sister doesn't want to keep it. Next."
Liu Zhiheng nodded, "I don't have to worry about selling the Zhuangzi here. A few days ago, I heard that the family of Mr. Guo of Taihua Academy wanted to buy the Zhuangzi. I'll send someone to ask about it. With such a neighbor, you can't go wrong. "
Who are you talking about?" Mr. Wen raised his head in surprise, his voice changed.
