Du Lizheng frowned and said, "Mi was bewitched by the Gui family and wanted to hand over the letter. When you arrive in the court, can you keep silent and not mention Qiu's whereabouts?"

Mei Tongsheng choked and said with his neck straight: "What should I do?"

"As the same sentence, where is Qiushi going now?" Du Lizheng couldn't help but feel impatient and said.

"Who knows where I went? For the sake of high prices, I sold it to the passing boat." Mei Tongsheng said, his eyes drifting.

"Whose hand can be tight?" Du Lizheng didn't see Mei Tongsheng's eyes and thought for a while.

"Tight, tight!" Mei Tongsheng nodded hurriedly: "Even if Lao You did it, he would definitely not dare to let people know how to handle this."

This "Lao You" is an old friend in Mei Tongsheng Town. He appeared in Mujia Village as a matchmaker to pick up people. The private population transactions are illegal, not to mention that the You family is also a scholar.

No one knows that Qiu's whereabouts is a good thing or a bad thing. If Mei's aunt and nephew bit this to death, unless Mei Tongsheng personally admits "the trading population" and presents all the evidence and evidence, it will be difficult to cleanse the suspicion of "slaughtering money for money".

"You can't wait like this. You have to take the lead to prevent future troubles!" Du Lizheng pondered for a moment and said.

"What should I do?" Mei Tongsheng was also uneasy.

"Everything must be justified! When your brother and couple were gone, Mei was still a girlfriend, so she should have a dowry. If you are young, you should be the same as the example." Du Li said righteously.

Mei Tongsheng is not confident now because he is too greedy and only takes up his brother's property and does not raise the orphan. He also lets Mei, the niece, "leave the house in vain". These two things are just in the court and they are untenable.

I heard that I really wanted to give Mei Shi and Mei Duo a share of the money. Mei Tongsheng's face immediately looked ugly as if he had eaten shit.

Since the time when Grandpa Gui Er was holding a wine in his house, the news in Mujia Village has no longer been "Gui Yuan's son is back" or "Gui Wu brought his wife to his hometown", but has become "Master Mei 's murder of Qiu' to seek money'."

Everyone can see the return of Gui Chongyang and Gui Wu, and it will be the case if you say a few words. At most, there are two words behind the scenes with sourness in your mouth. Gui Wu was kicked out of the house because he was disliked by the Jiang family. However, there were several cars of dowry sent by Mrs. Jiang, and no one responded to these sour words.

Everyone has always been alienated from the Gui family, and they lose interest after a few gossips. The Mei family is booming, and there are far more people staring at the Mei family than the Gui family.

The incident of Mai Fu's 'slaying money and killing'" involves major issues and becomes more and more popular in private.

Mei Tong was not good at managing his business and lived a mediocre life; but over the past decade, he took over his brother's property, married the Du family, and successively offered two scholars. He also refused many people's proposals for the eldest grandson, and was jealous of the Mei family.

There are also those who are afraid of others' good life. In a few days, they spread the story of Mei Tong's "slaughtering money" everywhere, and even added fuel to the fire and said that it was a bit slight and a shadow.

These gossips reached the Mei family, and Mei Tong was so angry that she died, but there was no way. When Piansheng heard that Gui Wu had gone to Xiji Town, he knew that Du Lizheng's previous suggestions could not be delayed.

The eldest grandson is in the official school, and his son has had many social engagements in the town recently. No one has discussed Mei Tongsheng, so he had to go to the Du family by himself.

In Xiji Town, Gui Chongyang followed Gui Wu and attacked the most famous lawyer's house in the town.

Holding the flowers in his hand, the words that make people cry, Gui Chongyang sighed: "What a pity, such a good way of doing nothing."

"Why are you in a hurry?" Gui Wu glanced at Gui Chongyang, a little confused.

When Gui Chongyang was planning to plan the Mei family before, he was not so urgent.

"The Mei family's father and son are shallow in character, and they are selfish and vicious, but Du Lizheng is worried." Gui Chongyang frowned and said, "The two families are in the same vein and colluding with each other."

Although he had never had a formal deal with Du Lizheng, he only watched twice, so he could see Du Lizheng's difficulty.

Gui Wu said thoughtfully: "You have to be careful. I asked someone to check the Du family's background a few years ago, but nothing special was found. But if he had no reliance, he would not have been able to stir up the wind and rain more than ten years ago. It would be shocking if he couldn't find it out."

If you check a person's life and hometown, you will be able to check the government office. Village Chief Du is a foreign household and can easily find out where he moved out. But it is strange that he was alone in Tongzhou, and there was no relative involved. Could it be that he jumped out of the crack of the stone and had no courtesy?

He settled in Tongzhou Prefecture alone, then married and took concubines, and spread the branches and leaves, which led to the Du family.

It is not so easy to make a living with a single family? The chief of the village of Baekshen Du bought land and shops, so that slaves and maids could be called. He never showed any embarrassment or feared that others would peek at the industry.

"Is it a concubine son born from a big family?" Gui Chongyang couldn't help but worry when he thought of a possibility. Even if the concubine son born from a marginalized child has the same bloodline and still has reliance on him in case of trouble, it is not something that ordinary farmers can compete with.

Gui Wu shook his head and said, "It's not like, if he really comes from an extraordinary background, his horizons will not be so narrow. You see, he always finds his wife and daughters in the village, in order to establish himself in the Kimura family. He clearly has enough money to settle in Xiji Town and marry a wealthy family in the town, but he has to live in the village, so there must be a reason."

Gui Chongyang's eyes lit up: "Is there a treasure in the village? Did he come for the treasure?"

Gui Wu twitched his lips: "You're thinking too much. Tongzhou is open and has always been a waterway hub. There are no natural dangers in the surrounding villages. There are so many people and eyes. Where is the place to hide treasures?"

"It's not a treasure hunt, could it be a disaster relief?" Gui Chongyang thought of another possibility.

Du Lizheng seemed warm, but he was full of calculating and was always a man of his own words and actions. A farmer who married a wife and daughter was to marry a farmer who was in a position of righteousness and was not without ambition. However, this ambition stopped in the village and did not mean to continue to rush up, which seemed a bit inconsistent.

Gui Wu did not immediately refute this time, but fell into deep thought and nodded, "If this is the case, it will make sense. It seems that we need to check what happened thirty years ago to see if we can find any clues."

There was a small tail behind it, and the uncle and nephew were just doing it. While talking in a low voice, they walked towards the back street of the county government office.

There are many minor officials living in the county government office. Zhong Xiaoli, who is from the same family as the Guiwu clan, lives nearby. However, the uncle and nephew did not go to the Zhong family today, but went to another place, not a local household.

The male owner of this family went to the local area with the magistrate four years ago. He was a famous master of crime. Zhou Dingxiang mentioned that he was a fellow villager with Master Zhou a few days ago.

Because this famous master of Zheng is a person who is used by the county magistrate, people often come to ask for gifts. Neighbors pay much attention to it, and ordinary people can inquire about it as soon as they ask.

The little tails following the two uncles and nephews of Gui Wu asked around and left hurriedly.

At noon that day, Du Lizheng, who was Liu Mei Tongsheng, had received accurate news. The Gui family's uncle and nephew had already found a lawsuit to write a lawsuit and also visited the county magistrate's confidant staff.

Mei Tongsheng was frightened and uneasy when he heard this.

Du Lizheng was too lazy to persuade Mei Tong to have something, and said bluntly: "If you really can't bear to share the money and land, then you will be the official. If you are lucky, you will be able to settle it if you spend a hundred taels of silver."

If you are willing to do so, there is nothing scary about the poor entering the yamen. Unless you meet a ruthless and unruly commander, you will know that you can't squeeze out the oil and water if you are beaten twice, and there will be fewer people watching the upper and lower levels. Those who are really worried about entering the yamen are Mei Tong, who has a slightly more prosperous family, and there is no strong connection for people to be afraid of. If you press down, you will get the oil and water if you really get into the yamen, and half of the remaining production capacity will be good.

Mei Tong lived in her fifties and had never experienced the government's methods. She had heard of them and had also seen them. Of course, she was unwilling to be a minister of officials even if she died. She couldn't help but lose her parents: "Is it true that the Gui family really cheap?"

Du Lizheng snorted coldly, "Who said that the land must be from the Gui family? Mei does not have a biological child. You write a note on the makeup field, and only tell the Mei family's biological children. Otherwise, it would be enough to take it back after Mei's death?"

Mei Tongsheng immediately became more energetic and said, "But they still have eight taels of silver. What should I do? If you take this as an example, the little girl's movie will also have eight taels."

Now, a stone of wheat costs only more than 20 cents, and two or three taels of silver can be comfortably spent in a year. How could Mei Tongsheng be willing to give this sixteen taels of silver for free?

Du Li frowned: "That is the property of the second wife of the Mei family. My aunt and nephew are second wife girls. Whether it is according to the law or human relationships, they should be divided into one. If you don't want to leave this handle, it's better to lose money and avoid disasters. If someone says this in the future, you will be the one who is justified. As for the Gui family, huh, if you want money, give it to them first, there will always be places where they need to spend..."

Mei Tongsheng knew the great relationship, but he still felt sad as if he had cut his flesh. The fat chicken in front of him tasted like chewing wax.

*

At dusk, Gui Wu and Gui Chongyang’s uncle and nephew returned, and Mei was already waiting in the second family.

Du Lizheng sent someone over in the afternoon and asked Mei to come over. It seemed that he wanted to mediate the "disputes" between Mei and Mei Tongsheng.

Mei delayed and didn't go, just waiting for Gui Wu and Gui Chongyang.

"Although Chongyang is small, it is now the head of the household, so I go with me; Xiaowu is also here to count it." Since the troubles a few days ago, Mei's family has seemed to have eaten a fairy pill and is full of fighting spirit, like an old hen, trying to protect Gui Chongyang and Mei Duo under their wings.

Gui Wu is the only one who tells you; Gui Chongyang is Zheng’s key point.

Things are developed step by step, and they are all done according to the plan, which makes Gui Chongyang feel a little satisfied and excited.

So, after a while, the villagers who were walking at the door after dinner discovered that Mei and Gui Wu's uncle and nephew had entered the Du family.

Before that, Mei Tongsheng went back and forth with a dark face and went back and forth between the Du family one or two times.
