In the office, instructor Fang Zhiqiang and director Li Yu looked at each other in silence.
After a long silence, Fang Zhiqiang started talking.
"I didn't expect that Xiao Cui would work so hard for this matter. I knew that her father was a lazy man who treated her badly and often beat and scolded her. But I never thought that she would actually want to take her mother with her. Fleeing her father with her brother..."
Li Yu also nodded.
"I didn't expect that there would be such a shameless lazy man today... No, he's not a lazy man. He's clearly a villain. He does nothing but do nothing serious. He's so unconscionable! He should be punished severely. !”
"How to deal with it? He didn't break the law."
Fang Zhiqiang shook his head helplessly and said: "I don't see many things like beating one's own family members to show off one's strength at home, but there are some. I have seen men beating women and women beating men, but everyone has never taken it seriously. It’s the same thing, I never realized I was that angry until today.”
"Ouch, what should I do?"
Li Yu scratched his hair and walked around.
"This evil man wanders outside the factory all day long. He can't be scolded or chased away, and there are people feeding him and drinking. I think he plans to stay here for a long time. If things go on like this, I'm afraid Xiao Cui won't be able to bear it. If you really want to leave with him, it will be over."
"Who says it isn't?"
Fang Zhiqiang sat on the chair with a depressed look on his face: "He is a pure evil person, but he has not broken the law and cannot be punished by law... I even feel that there is something wrong with Ming Dynasty's laws."
"Make an idea, instructor, we can't just watch Xiao Cui being taken away, right?"
Li Yu looked at Fang Zhiqiang: "Tell me, what should I do?"
"How do I know? No one from the county revival meeting can do anything. What can I do? Pay for his murder?"
Fang Zhiqiang rolled his eyes at Li Yu angrily: "Unless our chairman, His Majesty the Ming Emperor, issued an order to amend the law and send this evil man directly to hard labor, then this matter will be considered resolved, otherwise it will not count. "
You two looked at me and I looked at you, but still couldn't figure out a way.
However, at this moment, a male worker who had just been sent to guard the factory gate hurried over.
"Director! Instructor! Something happened! Something happened!"
"whats the matter?"
Li Yu and Fang Zhiqiang were startled, thinking that the scoundrel had done something earth-shattering and scandalous again.
It turned out not to be.
It's the state judicial branch.
Tao Liren, the head of the Tai'an Prefecture Judicial Bureau, personally took several legal practitioners to the Laiwu County National Textile Factory, found the director Li Yu and the instructor Fang Zhiqiang, told him about the modification of the Ming Law, and asked him about the Xiao family A family thing.
"Old Fang! You've opened your fucking mouth before!"
Li Yu was overjoyed and looked at Fang Zhiqiang in surprise.
Fang Zhiqiang was also stunned, then overjoyed, and immediately told Tao Liren all about the incident, and then brought Xiao Cui and her mother to Tao Liren, who explained to them what happened.
After learning that their matter had been reported to Zhongdu, the emperor Su Yonglin, who was far away in Zhongdu, specifically changed the law on this matter to protect the mother and daughter. The mother and daughter stood stunned on the spot, at a loss.
A new relevant law strictly prohibits internal fights between family members.
That is to say, no member of the family is allowed to punch or kick other members. Whether it is a domestic violence man beating a woman, a shrew beating a man, parents beating a naughty child together, or an unfilial son bullying an old father or mother, all will be severely punished. prohibit.
Once discovered and reported, severe punishment will be given.
As evidence, Xiao's mother showed Tao Liren the scars on both arms. Veins popped up on Tao Liren's forehead.
At that time, Xiao's father happened to be wandering outside the factory, so Tao Liren immediately led a team to arrest Xiao's father.
Seeing the tall Tao Liren approaching, Xiao's father was a little afraid, but he still had the courage not to run away.
"What are you doing? Want to beat someone? I'm not afraid of you! Let me tell you, these are not the past. You'd better beat me to death directly, otherwise I will go to the Civil Affairs Consultation Room of the Fuxing Association to sue you, and then the judiciary will come down The team will definitely make your factory miserable!"
Father Xiao looked like a scoundrel and sneered: "What, you can't hold it anymore? If you can't hold it anymore, hand over my daughter as soon as possible, otherwise we'll just waste it here and see who can outlast whom!"
"Yes, I also know the Judicial Team. It seems that you have some understanding of this area?"
"Of course. Is it possible to fight with you without being cautious? But don't say it. I really have to thank Emperor Su. Without him, I really wouldn't dare to do this. Come on, you'd better beat me to death."
Father Xiao sat directly on the ground, motionless, looking like a rogue.
"Your Majesty's love for the people and benevolence spread throughout China. The laws of the Ming Dynasty protect all people and prevent them from being humiliated. But unexpectedly, they also protect such sinful people and make good people suffer. How can the law be repaired to truly protect all people? ?”
Tao Liren sighed with emotion, then shook his head and said: "But fortunately, there are only a few lazy and evil men like you, otherwise I would not be able to keep up."
After speaking, Tao Liren waved his hand.
"Catch him."
"Here!"
Three strong legal soldiers swarmed forward, pressed Father Xiao to the ground, and then took out ropes and tied him up.
Father Xiao struggled hard and cursed angrily.
"Let me go! What are you going to do? Believe it or not, I will sue you! I will sue you!"
"I'm right here. Come and sue. Who do you want to sue and what do you want to sue?"
Tao Liren knelt down, looked at Xiao's father with disdain, and said, "My name is Tao Liren, and I am the director of the Tai'an Prefecture Judicial Branch. By the way, I want to tell you that I am the immediate boss of all judicial teams sent to patrol the countryside."
Father Xiao was still struggling, but after Tao Liren finished speaking, Father Xiao's struggle subsided slightly.
"ah?"
"Don't you understand? Come on, what do you want to sue me for? Let me judge what crime I have committed and how I should be sentenced."
Tao Liren looked at Father Xiao condescendingly.
Father Xiao stopped struggling, beads of sweat gradually appeared on his forehead, his lips were trembling a little, and his eyes were full of disbelief.
Naturally, nothing happened. Xiao's father was eventually sentenced to seven years of hard labor in Taozhou by the Tai'an Prefecture Judicial Bureau for "beating his family for more than ten years and refusing to mend his ways despite repeated admonitions."
This is the deterrent punishment requested by Su Yonglin, that is, after the new law is promulgated, a group of models must be caught to establish the majesty of the law to deter potential criminals.
Xiao's father happened to hit the muzzle of the gun and was sentenced severely.
The original family property of Xiao's father, such as houses, farm tools, poultry and land, all belong to Xiao's mother and her children.
Xiao Cui's family finally got rid of their long-standing nightmare.
At the same time, the family that paid for Xiao Cui to be his daughter-in-law heard about what happened to Xiao Cui's father. They were horrified and retreated, and did not continue to force Xiao Cui to be taken back as their daughter-in-law.
Xiao Cui did not make things difficult for them. He paid them back the money owed by Xiao's father and the chicken and duck money in one go with his own salary.
Two clears.
The moment everything ended, Xiao Cui felt relieved, as if a long journey had ended, and he breathed a long sigh of relief.
The gap between her and her mother was not eliminated immediately. Xiao's mother felt a little ashamed of her, and she didn't know how to face Xiao's mother in a short period of time.
So Xiao Cui did not choose to go home, but stayed in the factory and continued working, hoping that the passage of time would heal his inner pain.
Now she doesn't need to work hard to buy a house to get away from that bastard, and she doesn't need to work hard to get away from that bastard, but she still feels that she still needs to buy a house.
She wanted to stay away from that sad place and never wanted to go back to live there.
She didn't want anything, house or land, and left everything to her brother. She just wanted to have her own job.
A few days later, when Xiao Cui's life gradually returned to peace, an invitation interrupted her peaceful life.
Jiao Jun, director of the Tai'an Prefecture Renaissance Association branch, came to the factory and brought a letter to Xiao Cui.
"This is a letter written to you by the Chairman of our Renaissance Association, our Emperor. Please read it."
"ah?"
Xiao Cui was stunned, looking at the letter in front of him with a confused look on his face.
"Give it to me? His Majesty the Emperor...gave it to me?"
"Well, it's a handwritten letter for you."
Jiao Jun smiled and placed the letter in front of Xiao Cui: "Look, His Majesty the Emperor has written everything he wants to say to you here."
The letter was unopened, but Jiao Jun knew what was written in the letter. Su Yonglin told him, so Jiao Jun was deeply moved.
Time? Fate?
He looked at Xiao Cui who was gradually opening the envelope.
Xiao Cui gradually opened the envelope, took out the letter paper from the envelope, unfolded it, and read it carefully.
She couldn't believe that this was a letter written by the emperor to her. She didn't know why the emperor would write to her. There was obviously no intersection between him and her...
Is it because of what happened this time?
Xiao Cui swallowed, fearing that she wouldn't be able to recognize the emperor's handwriting, which would make her laugh.
But fortunately, she knew all the words written by the emperor, and there were no uncommon words.
The content of the letter was very simple. It said that after Emperor Su Yonglin heard about her incident in Zhongdu, he deeply sympathized with her experience and admired her courage very much, so he decided to amend the law for her to make it legal. better protect their interests.
Su Yonglin hoped that the decision she made had helped her get out of the predicament, and that the devil in human skin had been punished, so that she could live with her mother and brother and live a happy life. .
Then, Su Yonglin made a ruthless request and wanted to invite her to join the revival meeting.
After hearing her story, Su Yonglin admired her very much, admired her courage and courage, and thought she was a "wonderful woman".
It happened that the Renaissance Association was planning to accept women as members. Su Yonglin felt that it was most appropriate for her to be the first female member of the Renaissance Association because she was full of courage.
Su Yonglin hoped that she would seriously consider coming to Zhongdu to participate in the revival meeting. After joining the revival meeting, Su Yonglin would also arrange a job for her.
She was participating in a team called the Drama Troupe that was just formed by a revival meeting. Because I heard that she was good at singing folk songs, I felt that her skills were very suitable for this matter.
If she is willing, she can come to Zhongdu and have a look. If she feels it is suitable, she can join. Then she can live and work in Zhongdu. She can be assigned a house in Zhongdu, and it doesn't matter if she brings her family to live there.
And there will be the possibility of traveling around and doing tours in the future. Her life will definitely not be boring, it will definitely not be boring than working in a factory, and it is very meaningful.
After reading the letter, Xiao Cui was stunned for a while before he realized what he was doing.
She suddenly felt that what she had experienced in the past few days was quite magical. How could even the famous Emperor in China be related to her and write to her personally?
Would such an elusive big shot really notice a humble girl like her?
