Chapter 212 Unhappy retribution

In Xiji Town, Mei Xiucai came out of the casino and looked sinister.

Those who often come to the casino in the town are just those people. Seeing Mei Xiucai's expression, they knew that they had lost completely again. They felt unlucky and dodged them all.

Mei Xiucai's face became more and more ugly, and he snorted coldly, and then left with a swing of his sleeves.

Today is the eighth day of October, which is a small market. There are already many villagers coming to the market on the street. The breakfast stalls are also set up and various fragrances are heard.

Mei Xiucai walked on the road, tightening her clothes, and felt more and more hungry.

When passing by "Baiweixiang", Mei Xiucai stopped and looked at the long queue at the door. He felt that Lao Jin was too useless. He shook his head before leaving, but he happened to be seen by Gui Qiu, who was standing on the second floor, looking at him.

Even if he looked down on Lao Jin, Mei Xiucai knew that no one was a fool. He leaned against the Hou Mansion and could take this money twice in vain, but it was probably not the third time, the fourth time.

The marriage between these two families always requires some progress before they can make excuses to ask for money.

Before, Mei Xiucai thought that he would not let the marriage be completed no matter what. He tried his best to fool and procrastinate, nor could he give Mei Sheng a chance to gain wealth. Now that he was so angry, he changed his mind.

This marriage was done. Mei Sheng had the best backer of the Marquis' Mansion. Couldn't Mei Xiucai also play the sign of the Marquis' Mansion? Mei Sheng also abandoned his previous marriage and grabbed the officials' family. This is also a handle.

Scholars have always been particular about character and are jealous, and they wish everyone would be flawed. Mei Xiucai has suffered a loss.

Mei Xiucai divorced his wife and married another wife. The Mei Gui family lived with two lives. Even if they left the government, they would be sentenced to "righteousness". How could he not divorce his wife directly?

At that time, Xiucai Mei was still a little boy, and no one paid attention to it, and no one mentioned this matter; when Xiucai Mei passed the academy examination last year and became a scholar, the incident of "divorcement" was mentioned.

No one pursued the grudges between the Meigui families more than ten years ago. What everyone saw was that the Du family had Du Lizheng, a landlord and gentry, but the Gui family was a poor family with difficult livelihoods. They had to put a hat of "dislike the poor and love the rich" on Mei Xiucai.

Mei Xiucai has always been a little clever, but he has made little contribution to himself several times.

When Mei Sheng loses his reputation and ends up like this, that is what Mei Xiucai is eager to do.

Thinking of this, Mei Xiucai was not so unwilling to be a marriage.

Thirty miles from Mujia Village in the town, Mei Xiucai had no money in his pocket, but he did not delay him from hiring a car. He just asked Du to pay when he got home.

Because she was sitting in the carriage, Mei Xiucai missed the trip with Du Qi and Mei Zhi who entered the town to look for someone on the road.

When she arrived outside Mei’s house, Mei Xiucai got out of the car and knocked on the door.

Xiao Li was sweeping the snow in the yard and heard the knock on the door and went to open the door.

Mei Xiucai thought it was Du and said directly: "Give twenty cents to the handlebar."

When Xiao Li saw Mei Xiucai, he felt worried and couldn't speak.

But Du was still locked in the jail of the county magistrate. Will this Mei Xiucai start to make trouble? There is also the little girl, Xiao Li's sister-in-law hurried over to talk about this matter, and told her to be generous and not to ruin her reputation. Xiao Li really felt that she was unjustly dead. She is not a god, so who would know that Du would hide her daughter? There is also the Du family that is not authentic, so I don't know if one of the two children is missing?

No matter how aggrieved Xiao Li felt, he couldn't help feeling guilty when he saw Mei Xiucai.

Mei Xiucai had already seen Xiao Li, but he still ordered like a grandfather: "Pay the fare first!"

Xiao Li was not confident enough, so he responded in a low voice, counted twenty cents out of his purse and handed them to the coachman.

Thirty miles away is not close, and it is winter again. Other families always have to give a bowl of hot water. This family is so unkind. The coachman muttered in his heart, and took the money and shouted the carriage away.

Mei Xiucai was already hungry and was anxious to have a meal, so he went back to the wing room to find Du.

Is this woman too lazy? With Xiao Li as an old mother, is she trying to enjoy her happiness by shaking hands?

I didn't expect that there was no heat in the room, and there was no sign of Du and his son.

Mei Xiucai couldn't help but wonder, and stood up and turned around and went out.

Just as Xiao Li put the broom on and was about to pick up the curtain and go back to the room, Mei Xiucai asked directly: "Where is Mrs. Du? Where is Nannan?"

Xiao Li's expression changed when he heard this and didn't know how to answer for a moment.

Mei Xiucai couldn't help frowning when he saw something was wrong.

Mei Tongsheng heard the movement in the room and hesitated and said, "Come in and speak!"

Mei Xiucai realized that I was at home, so he looked at Xiao Li and showed contempt.

Mei Tongsheng also knew that his granddaughter was sick, but he didn't take it seriously. It was just a girl movie. It was because Du was neglected to take care of him. What does it have to do with others?

But when Du Shi comes to the yamen, you can just go to the yamen to scare him. You can't keep it in there all the time.

Mei Xiucai was stunned. He really didn't expect that such a big thing would happen if he was not at home for two days.

Mei Tong knew that his son had a good idea, and was afraid that he would blame him, so he talked to Xiao Li and Du and said, "Li was young and his seniority is here. Du was too bad. I can show her face today. Tomorrow I will give her a big face and let her learn a lesson. If you go to the Du family, their daughters of the Du family are unfilial, they will always give our Mei family an explanation! Otherwise, the Mei family will not have this woman who has entered the yamen again!"

It was actually a pretext that Du was detained to ask the Du family for money. Mei Xiucai was angry at first, and he was also moved when he heard this. Now it was time for the shortage of silver, so Lao Jin could not take it out, but the Du family could take out a sum.

But Mei Tongsheng was right. The Mei family did not have this woman who came out of the yamen again. Mei Xiucai's eyes turned and he had a few thoughts of separation.

The Marquis' "adopted daughter" was married by Mei Sheng. How could he not marry Mei Qingbai? He was only thirty years old, and he was about age.

As for Du, an unfilial woman, even the yamen has entered, and she still keeps embarrassing her? She completely forgot about Du’s so-called “unfilial” because she never treated Xiao Li as her stepmother after hearing what he said.

During this thought, Mei Xiucai felt hot and felt more and more lucky. He left all the rest of his life.

But he also knew that compared with his fourteen-year-old nephew, his uncle had no strengths, so he asked him to give up Mei Sheng and tell Miss Liang that he was like dreaming in the daytime, and he still needed to make careful calculations.

Mei Tongsheng felt relieved as he saw his son listening to his words and not supporting Du. He just wanted to stop making trouble. He saw that if his son and daughter-in-law were all in mind, then it would be impossible for him to decide who was in this family.

This is great now. As for the matter of dividing the family and houses, Mei Tong became timid in front of her son. She thought that she would just go there vaguely first, and then she turned around and said that she was just teaching Du a lesson.

Du family, go to the room.

Li watched Mei Xiao take medicine, tucked her quilt, and patted her a few times. Seeing that the little man closed his eyes, he got up and came out.

Sister Du Liu sat in the main hall with a look of ugly expression. When she saw Li come out, she said with some concern: "Nannan is better?"

"It's a little better." Li responded, but he despised Du Liujie in his heart. Mei Xiao was her niece. She was too evaded yesterday, and today she didn't even go inside the inner room, and she only said it nicely. Fortunately, she didn't expect her to help Du Qi in the future, otherwise it would be useless to expect.

The war last night was in chaos, and everyone was worried that Mei Xiao would not get rid of the fever and didn't care about anything else, but Sister Du Liu tossed and turned and did not sleep well all night.

Du Erniang is a daughter of the Du family. She is known as "unfilial" on her back, and Du Liujie, the girl in her mother's family, is also blind. I heard that scholars value reputation the most. If Mei Sheng regards herself as an unfilial person because of Du Erniang, wouldn't she be wronged?

Thinking of this, Du Liujie was unwilling to interfere with Du Erniang's affairs, and whispered to Li: "Madam, Xiao Qiyan saw the age of being a relative, but with her second sister, I'm afraid that outside would misunderstand our Du family. It's said, 'My married daughter splashed water'. I know that my wife is kind, but the second sister recognizes the Mei family and not the Du family even in the yamen! There is also the reason why Brother Zhi and Nannan are the Mei family's flesh and blood, and there is no reason to keep them in the Du family all the time. Otherwise, it would be like our Du family provoking their Mei family's close relatives, thankless, why bother!"

When Li heard this, he couldn't help but frown, but he didn't listen to Du Liujie's words, but felt even more and more cold.

Even if it was not the same mother, Du Erniang was also Du Liujie's elder sister. At this time, the sister was bullied and shared the same hatred of the enemy, but she even disliked her. As for the Mei Zhi brothers and sisters, it was only one day after they arrived at the Du family, which hindered her eyes?

Sister Du Liu just thought Li listened and continued, "The Mei family is not famous, and our Du family cannot be affected. Even if the master is there, this is definitely the same."

Li frowned even more. Mr. Du rarely had such a time when he didn't go home at night. Could something be wrong?

Thinking of this possibility, Li was anxious and impatient to listen to Du Liujie gossip again, waved his hand and said, "I know, go back and continue to embroider dowry. Don't come here in the next two days. Be careful of getting sick!"

But Sister Du Liu did not leave and said, "But did Lao Qi take Brother Zhi out again?"

Li rubbed his eyebrows and said, "I'm going to find your second brother-in-law. Since the Mei family is going to come forward, who else should I look for him?"

Only then did Sister Du Liu feel satisfied, Niao Niao got up and went back to the room to embroider the dowry.

Li looked at Du Liujie's back with a cold expression. He wanted to marry Mei Sheng with such a heartless thing? Dreaming! With Du Liujie's selfish and cold temperament, he could despise Du Erniang today and Du Qi tomorrow. If he really wants to get his wish, he can't turn his mind around and think about the Du family's property.

The magistrate's office.

Gui Chongyang came with his uncle Gui Wu, and for the sake of Gui and Mei’s family’s lawsuit was removed.

Even if Grandpa Gui Er went there in person in the morning, Gui Chongyang was preparing to withdraw his complaint. Compared with "theft and injury", the crime of "disobedience and unfiliality" was even more serious. Even if the Mei family finally removed the complaint, the yamen would be able to deal with the Mei Qingshu couple.

"Retreat, just withdraw. It just so happened that the imperial tomb was documented and was about to get rid of the child. If he couldn't escape, you don't have to get involved. But Medu, did he really do evil deeds? He was abandoned by his husband's family? Otherwise, why didn't anyone show up in the husband's family?" Zhang Liang said.

Gui Wu lived in Mujia Village for two months, and didn’t know these things, so he looked back like Gui Chongyang.

Although Du Erniang is not a good person regardless of her mother's family, Gui Chongyang did not take any blame, and said, "I have never heard of it in the past..."

Before he finished speaking, Master Zheng came in with a strange face and reported: "Sir, the husband of Medu is here."

Zhang Liang raised his eyebrows and said, "But you want to pick someone up?"

"It's not about picking up people, but about writing a divorce letter to send it... I'm really cruel, I just ignored my children..." Master Zheng sighed.

When Gui Chongyang and Gui Wu's uncle and nephew heard this, they couldn't help but look at each other.

What do you mean by this?

The law of heaven is clear, and retribution is unhappy!

The Du family took advantage of the situation and wanted to marry the Mei family and gain a position as the official, and instigated Mei Qingbai to divorce Gu Gui and marry Du Erniang; now Du Erniang has also been divorced!
