Han Shuxian said: "Yes, twenty taels of silver. After Doctor Liu examined the injury to both of them, they both said it was a skin injury and they could rest for a day or two. However, the two of them insisted that they could not move, which would delay their return to do business. I was asked to pay twenty taels of silver before leaving the hospital, but I had no choice but to pay them the money I borrowed to treat their injuries."
"I thought what they said was at least half true, if not completely true. But after taking the money, they ran faster than rabbits, and they didn't even look injured!"
"Of course, I don't really want to send them to the county government to be punished. As long as they sincerely admit their mistakes and repent, I will go to the government office to withdraw the lawsuit!" Han Shuxian slowly explained to everyone. After living in the village for several years, he also knew everyone's thoughts. , villagers rarely go to the yamen to make trouble, and almost all issues are resolved through the village chiefs.
After Han Shuxian said that as long as Fan Dali and the others repented, they would go to the Yamen to withdraw the lawsuit and then said to Li Youdi: "Brother Youdi, I know you have put a lot of thought into this matter, but Fan Dali, how much do I think about this person?" I also know a little bit. This man is very self-righteous. He looks down on everyone and bullies everyone just because he has made a lot of money in business. This time, I should teach him a lesson and let him know my Dafeng laws. , it might be a good thing for me to be more restrained in my actions in the future.”
Li Youdi felt a little uncomfortable after hearing Han Shuxian's complaint to the county government, but after hearing his subsequent explanation and making a special trip to explain it to him again, he felt relieved. Just like Han Shuxian's words , it would be a good idea to teach him a lesson so that he could restrain himself in the future, and said, "It's a good idea to teach him a lesson so that he doesn't think he is the King of Heaven."
What Han Shuxian wants in his heart is not just to clean up Fan Dali's family. What he wants is to let everyone in the village know that don't be quick to talk all day long.
After Li You finished speaking, Xie Wenhua said to Han Shuxian, "You are the only one who is soft-hearted. If anyone dares to extort my money, their legs will be broken."
After Xie Wenhua added this sentence, everyone immediately felt that Han Shuxian was indeed soft-hearted and just wanted to teach Fan Dali and Chen a lesson, unlike his friends who would break their legs as soon as they came.
Liu Yuan returned to the subject at this time, "Wanwan, have you thought about it? Do you want to recognize your father more?"
Xie Wenhua also looked at Mo Ziwan after Liu Yuan's words. Although he didn't ask, the meaning in his eyes was obvious.
Mo Ziwan looked at Liu Yuan, how could anyone refuse this? Although I know they are mostly joking!
Han Shuxian refused to admit that they were just joking, so he replied without giving them the slightest chance: "If you two are here to cause trouble, please turn around and walk away slowly without sending them away!"
Liu Yuan didn't care at all, "That's right. It's you who recognized your daughter today. We really shouldn't come to snatch Wan Wan. We should congratulate Wan Wan first!" However, he followed up with, "But what I said is true, Wan. "Wanwan, you can think about it again!" Then he reached out to the boy beside him. The boy opened the gift box he was holding, and saw a set of the Four Treasures of the Study inside. "Wanwan, although we don't have to take the exam in the future, She passed the imperial examination, but she was able to become the number one talented woman in the Dafeng Dynasty."
"Thank you, Uncle Liu, I will definitely study hard!" Mo Ziwan responded.
Xie Wenhua looked at the Four Treasures of the Study given by Liu Yuan, and took out a small brocade box from his arms. After opening it, it contained a piece of crystal clear jade. One end of the jade was taken out with a stick and was given to Mo Ziwan to wear directly around her neck. "Wanwan, although my uncle is not as good as your godfather and has known you since you were born, this does not affect my uncle's liking for you. You are a smart and filial child. My uncle hopes that you can be happy and grow up happily. .”
Mo Ziwan thanked her again: "Thank you, uncle."
Xie Wenhua waved to the boy next to him after Mo Ziwan finished thanking him. The boy immediately put down the things he was carrying and opened them, "Your godfather said that you are teaching children in the village to read. There is no paper and pen for reading." , What can you do without books? I gave you some paper and pens, and also found some enlightenment books to give to the children in the village."
Mo Ziwan got down from Han Shuxian, bowed deeply to Xie Wenhua, and thanked him again: "Thank you, uncle." Then she shouted to Li Linzi and others who came with the adults in the family to join in the fun: "Brother Linzi, big brother Brother Gang, come quickly and thank Uncle Xie."
Although the people calling were Li Linzi and Li Dagang,
But those who came over were all following Mo Ziwan to learn about the children. There were seven children. After they came over, they all knelt down to Xie Wenhua, "Thank you, uncle."
Xie Wenhua looked at the seven children kneeling in front of him. All of them were wearing coarse cloth with patches on top of each other. If it weren't for Mo Ziyuan, Xie Wenhua would not pay attention to these at all. He knew very well that in this era, the poor are better than the rich. There are many. Although the people in front of me are very poor, at least they still have homes, but the homeless old and young in the county don't even have homes. But today he is here to support Mo Ziyuan, so naturally he wants to say a few words "Wanwan is very smart. She is the smartest child I have ever seen. Learning from her is no different from studying in a school. If you study hard, you will definitely gain something."
Li Dagang was the first to reply: "Wanwan is teaching us very seriously, and we are also learning very seriously."
Li Linzi followed: "Yes, we are all studying seriously."
Xie Wenhua said with a smile: "That's good. As long as you study hard and listen to Wan Wan's words, I will send you more pens and paper for you to use."
Han Shuxian then followed: "In the future, whenever I take a break, I will also come to your classes. After you learn well, you will follow me to the school. I will pay for all the expenses." After finishing these words, he continued. "I believe that with Wan Wan's ability, even if you can't get ahead by passing the imperial examination, you can become an accountant or a steward, which is absolutely no problem."
These words were not just to support Mo Ziwan in teaching the children in the village to read, but also to let everyone see the way out after reading. When he said this, thinking that time was almost up, Han Shuxian changed the subject, "I am very happy that everyone can attend today. Come and witness that I recognize Wanwan as my goddaughter. We will entertain you all another day and have a great time."
Li Youdi also said: "Yes, we will have a lot of fun then, but now we have to recognize our daughter Wan Wan first."
After Li Youdi finished speaking, the people in the village began to boo, especially Li Youcai and the others, who shouted, "Mr. Han, if you continue to deny it, we will come to snatch your daughter!"
Han Shuxian smiled and said, "Then you have no chance." After speaking, he sat on the chair that had been prepared. Yu Silian also sat down together.
After the two of them sat down, Li Youdi helped to host the ceremony, "Wan Wan, come quickly and serve tea to your godfather and godmother." Chinese website
Mo Ziwan walked up to Han Shuxian first, then knelt down, kowtowed to Han Shuxian three times, then raised her head, took the prepared tea cup from Song Nanzhi's hand and handed it to Han Shuxian, "Godfather, please drink tea."
Han Shuxian took the tea cup and took a sip, then put the tea cup aside and took out the gift he had prepared, a long box. After Han Shuxian opened the box, he said: "Wan Wan, godfather hopes you use this Write your own different life with a pen." After finishing speaking, he closed the pen box and handed it to Mo Ziwan.
Mo Ziwan took the pen box with both hands and thanked her: "Thank you godfather." Then she kowtowed to Yu Silian and said, "Godmother, please have tea!"
Yu Silian took the tea and took a sip and put it aside. She also took out the gift she had prepared, a red gold longevity lock, and put it on Mo Ziwan's neck, "Godmother, I only hope that my Aster is safe and healthy." Grow up healthy and healthy.”
"Thank you, godmother." Mo Ziwan said, and after thanking Han Shuxian and Yu Silian, she said, "Thank you godfather and godmother for the gift. I will honor my godfather and godmother well in the future!"
After Mo Ziwan stood up, she shouted to Han Chunlin and Han Qiulu: "Brother Chunlin, sister."
When everyone was about to leave after the wedding ceremony, two government officials who came to the village came over with Fan Dali and Chen. When they came to the yard, one of the government officials raised their hands to Han Shuxian and said, "Congratulations, Mr. Han!"
Hearing his tone, Han Shuxian knew that they had figured out the whole story, and said politely: "Thank you!" Then he added: "If you two are not busy, sit down and have a cup of tea."
The yamen servant who spoke replied: "Thank you, Mr. Han. I have official duties today, so I won't bother you. I'll come back another day!" Then he followed up and said, "We came here to tell Mr. Han that we have found out the matter, and what's the matter?" Please Mr. Han, please follow us to the Yamen now so that you can give Mr. Han justice."
Han Shuxian responded calmly: "Okay, that's right.
Fortunately, I took a day off today and am free. "
Just after Han Shuxian responded, Fan Dali and Chen immediately knelt down in front of Han Shuxian. Chen cried bitterly and said, "Mr. Han, it's my fault. I shouldn't have said bad things about Wan Wan, and I shouldn't have extorted your money." ." Then he took out the money bag on his body, opened it, handed it to Han Shuxian and said: "This is the twenty taels of silver you gave us. We didn't touch it, and now we will return it to you! Please let us go, I will Never again!"
Fan Dali also begged for mercy: "We are sorry for Uncle Mo, Aunt Song and Wanwan. I should not have upset Uncle Mo's family, nor should I be impulsive. Please forgive us this time."
Han Shuxian looked at the two of them, but did not reach out to take the money handed over by Mrs. Chen, but said: "Let's not talk about the matter of you blackmailing my money. Just spreading rumors will make your whole family suffer. If you don't believe it, you can ask these two government officials."
The yamen servant who still spoke at the beginning replied: "Mr. Han is right. An innocent girl like Chen spread rumors. Although Mr. Han and every family in the village defended the little girl Mo Ziwan, fortunately it has not caused any harm. A little girl's reputation is tarnished, but she will be punished if she breaks the law. As for tongue pulling or other punishments, we have to wait for the adults to decide."
After the yamen officer finished speaking, Han Shuxian continued: "As for your blackmail, we have laws that stipulate that anyone who steals or abducts less than five taels of silver will be ordered to return the silver and be punished with twenty years of imprisonment. From five taels of silver to fifteen taels of silver, not only The penalty is to return the silver, double compensation to the victim, and to be sentenced to thirty battles." After looking at the two men, he sneered and said: "Those who dare to ask for twenty taels of silver, like you, will not only have to pay compensation, but also be sentenced to thirty battles. He was tortured and even had his limbs gouged out."
The Yamen servant once again confirmed Han Shuxian's statement, "Mr. Han is indeed a gentleman from Songhan Academy. He knows all the laws of our court very clearly."
The two of them were completely frightened when they heard this, and they finally realized why he asked himself to write a receipt when he gave him money, and what he said. It turned out that he had already planned it, but what could he do if he knew it? ? Who made them obsessed with money? The two of them had to kowtow and admit their mistakes!
