Chapter 190: Regret and Apology
Although the suspect was detained, the case was not tried at the moment.
There is no rule for private trials in the court. Whenever there is a case in the county government, it is probably a matter of a day to be tried, the county government will post a sign and then open the court at a fixed time every ten days.
Mei Qingshu and his wife were directly sued to the men's prison, and the women's prison was pending trial. The country folks can be regarded as seeing each other and returning to the world.
The prison guard and the prison woman felt unlucky when they looked at the two of them dressed up. The whole family had no oil in such mud legs. They were so nervous that they would make a fuss. They would even be scolded by the master. They were impatient and brought out their faces, as if they were evil. The prison cell they chose was also a cold and wet place.
Mei Qingshu and his wife were scared when they were detained, and they were scared again when they were imprisoned.
Mei Qingshu had already hated Feng to death, but he also knew that this time the lawsuit was not allowed. If the Gui family didn't let go, he would probably not be able to fall. If they locked the couple together this time, Mei Qingshu could beat his wife half to death.
Feng was incontinent when he was detained before, and his cotton pants were wet. Because it was cold and not dry, she had a smell of urine on her body. She also regretted it and did not dare to do anything. Not only did she regret provoking the Gui family, but she also regretted not being instructed to go to the Gui family.
According to the legend of the common people, the official forced confession, but he had to be tortured. At that time, it would be light to beat the board. She was worried that her husband would not be able to stand it and talked about her son, and she was afraid that she would be confused in pain.
In Feng's eyes, although his son Mei Wu was not as amazing as Mei Sheng, he was similar to Mei An's grandson Mei Chen, and he was a seed of study.
Feng saw a copper coin as big as the sky, and he also had the intention of "hoping his son to become a dragon". He thought that if he offered his eldest son, even if he was not a scholar like Mei Sheng, as long as he was a child, he could take over the village school and cultivate grandchildren in the future.
Even if my son can be saved, my husband and I have become guilty. It is said that the imperial examination will be investigated for three generations. Will it implicate my son? How can this be done?

Mujia Village, village school.
The lunch break has passed, but the classroom is still full of controversy.
Master Tong never returns, so the primary school students are naturally lawless. If you follow the primary school students who went to film the lively before, they have only a few understandings, so they have to surround Mei Chen and Mei Xiaoba to inquire.
"Mei Xu, what's going on? What's wrong with your uncle and aunt? They alarmed the county government and were arrested." Someone asked.
Someone asked again: "Did you steal the cow? Didn't the Li family lose the cow a few days ago to report to the official? Did you steal it by the old man?"
Mei Chen was always studying, but how could he know this? I heard that it was related to the Mei family, so I couldn't help but feel a little worried and looked at Mei Xiaoba with doubts.
Mei Xiaoba's face turned pale, stood up "live" and looked at the empty seat of Gui Chongyang, got up and ran out.
"Xiao Ba, what are you doing?" Seeing this, Yang Wu was worried and stood up and chased after him.
Seeing this, Du Qi tightened his hands holding the book and got up and went out.
Mei Chen wanted to keep someone, but hesitated for a moment and didn't say anything.

Mei Xiaoba ran all the way to Mei Qingshu's house. It happened that Mei Wu and Mei Qi brothers came out, and the cousins of the same ancestor and several young men stood towards each other.
If the vision could kill people, Mei Xiaoba would be full of holes.
Mei Qi was not much older than Mei Ba, and she cried and said angrily: "What are you here to do with Saobaxing? You defeated your mother, and you will come to defeat our family again!"
Mei Xiaoba was silent.
Mei Wu sneered: "Are you watching the fun? You sold us to curry favor with Gui's family, and you are satisfied now!"
Mei Xiaoba was not silent this time, raised her head and said seriously: "I am the old man, the old lady is wrong, it's wrong to steal things!"
"Ha! Are you here to reason with me?" Mei Wu was so angry that he couldn't help but step forward and take action.
Yang Wu happened to arrive and hurried forward to stop him.
The Mei brothers were too resentful and wrong. Yang Wu was afraid that Mei Xiaoba would suffer a loss and pulled him away.
Mei Xiaoba looked at Gui Wu with a little confused expression, and turned around and left with Yang Wu.
"What are you doing to beat him up?" Mei Qi looked at Mei Xiaoba's back and looked at her brother in confusion.
Mei Wu's expression was complicated, and she was a little surprised. Mei Xiaoba's cousin has always been a generous person, so why did she leave?
The disaster of the Mei family comes from the Gui family's secret recipe, but what did the Gui family think? Isn't there another Mei Xiaoba between the two families? What does Mei Xiaoba look at him just now? What does it mean?
Mei Qingshu and his wife were detained. Mei Qi was anxious, while Mei Wu was even more shocked.
If you are really a filial son, you should take responsibility at this time and go directly to the county government to make it clear that the person who went to the Gui family to burglary was not his parents, but himself, but Mei Wu did not dare.
Mei Xiaoba did not follow Yang Wu back to the village school, but hurriedly returned to the Gui family's old house.
*
In the Gui family’s old house, the west room.
Aunt Zhang sat on the edge of the kang and looked at Mei's opposite curiously.
Aunt Zhang made the news in the morning when the Gui family was going to sue Mei Qingshu and his wife. She thought that the Gui family wanted to bluff and teach the Mei family a lesson, but she didn't expect the official sentiment to come so quickly.
Such a fierce and evil look was shocking to watch.
The Gui family was not prosecuted for "theft case", but for "slaughtering money". The Mei family had to shed tears even if they didn't die.
Then it was Mei Xiaoba's Bensheng's uncle and aunt. Gui Chongyang sued him as soon as he said that he had an argument with Mei's aunt and nephew?
Gui Chongyang has lost the nominal stepmother of Mei, and he is still the head of the family. Maybe Mei offended Gui Chongyang, what should I do from now on? There is no one in my mother's family, and I have taken over a nephew who is half-baby, so it doesn't seem to be assured.
For a moment, Aunt Zhang no longer had the intention to watch the fun and was worried about Mei's retirement.
Aunt Zhang is about ten years older than Mei. When she married into Mujia Village, Mei was still a five- or six-year-old girl and was often taken to the Gui family by Grandma Gui.
Aunt Zhang saw Mei growing up, knowing that her difficulty was not easy, but was abandoned by her childhood sweetheart cousin, wasted her youth, but now she even gave up her status as a full-time wife. It was really not easy, and she really felt sorry for her. She hesitated and said, "Shun Mother, don't think that the eldest sister-in-law is too naughty. This biological child and who have married a wife forgot her mother. Just say that your cousin is angry with her son and daughter-in-law for Mei Xiaoba, who has no mother-in-law grandson. This Chongyang guy looks kind, but he is an idea. There are still decades to come. What should I do? Although you are older, you have a skill, so I should think about going forward. Isn't it easier to be the boss of my family in the future?
Mei knew that this was not sow discord, but that Aunt Zhang was really worried about herself, and said with gratitude, "I know that my sister-in-law loves me. I am twenty-seven years old this year. I won't say anything. I will stay at my uncle's house for one or half a year. After I was fifteen, let alone live in the Gui family. In my heart, I have long regarded the Gui family as my own. Not everyone has the blessing and luck of my sister-in-law. Even if I go to someone else's house, serve the old man, pull the young man down, and be a cheap stepmother, I am accidentally told by someone, but I don't have time to be relieved. Why bother? My uncle, my aunt treats me like my biological daughter. The saddest thing for the couple during their lifetime is the Gui family's house.
The blood inheritance. The god of heaven sees that the Chongyang family is the only blood. Take good care of Chongyang. Seeing him get married and have children is my filial piety to my uncle and aunt! The matters of the Mei family are not accused of Chongyang. Although the lawsuit was made by Chongyang himself, I nodded too much. Sister Qingshu was too much. Even if she was jealous of Gui's family, she would not have the reason to go to the door and go to the door to make it clear. How can such things be tolerated? Isn't it that others follow the example? What's more hateful is that they were discovered. They were fearless and attacked Chongyang directly, and had the idea of beating Xiaoba, without any kindness. Not to mention that Chongyang cannot tolerate this, I can't even tolerate it."
Aunt Zhang shook her head and sighed, but she also understood Mei's family.
Those younger generations were not born by Mei, but they were all her nieces and nieces she had to take care of and raised, so she was unwilling to see them being bullied and plotted against.

Under the window, Mei Duo glared at Mei Xiaoba and turned around and left.
Mei Xiaoba drooped her head, looked at the front room, and left with Mei Duo.
Mei Duo went to the kitchen to decorate the snack plate and tea, but ignored Mei Xiaoba. Mei Xiaoba whispered: "Sister, I was wrong."
Mei Duo only did not hear about it, Mei Xiaoba said earnestly: "I will never again!"
Mei Duo turned around and sneered, "What's wrong with you? Isn't that your relative? You have always regarded you as an honest person, but this honest person is even more stupid! If you want to speak for your dear uncle and your dear aunt, don't talk to him! If I were an aunt, I wouldn't want you back again. No matter whether you were bullied by your stepmother or your aunt, I wouldn't worry about that!"
Last night, Gui Chongyang was worried that Mei Xiaoba did not sleep well in the middle of the night. How did Mei Duo and Mei Shi close their eyes?
The deep love and the deepest culprit of the Gui family, Mei Duo, the one who has the deepest feelings for Mei Xiaoba, was Mei Duo, and the one who annoyed him the most was Mei Duo, so he started to speak without hesitation.
Mei Xiaoba shook her head vigorously and said, "I just apologize to my sister, I didn't want to ask for love, I believe in Brother Chongyang!"
In just two days, Mei Xiaoba's world was turned upside down. I saw clearly the faces of my so-called relatives and saw Gui Chongyang's decisiveness and coldness. Despite this, Mei Xiaoba's heart, Gui Chongyang was not a cruel person.

Sanhe County Government, at the door.
The door was worried about whether he should have collected Gui Wu's money, but he saw the magistrate in casual clothes sending Gui Wu's uncle and nephew out, and hurriedly bowed and retreated aside.
"Today's second day of the lunar calendar is scheduled to open on the tenth day of the lunar calendar!" Zhang Liang thought for a while and said.
The day of the town is 250 or 70, and the day of the 10th is a big festival.
On such a day, the county government will open a trial, and the number of onlookers will increase a lot. After this case, the gentry in Sanhe County needs to consider the idea of Gui Chongyang.
