The yamen servant came to notify the Mo family on the second day. Although Li Youdi reported the message in advance and discussed countermeasures with everyone, when receiving the notice, Mo Tingyu could not help but feel worried and asked anxiously: "Sir, why did he come to sue us after he stole our things?"
The person who came was Yang Maozi, the government official. After understanding the cause of the matter, he felt that the two elders of the Mo family were not worthy of such a slap in the face. However, the case had not yet been tried, so he could not say anything more. He comforted him and said, "Uncle, don't worry. I'm sure you won't wrongly accuse a good person."
With Yang Yamen's words, Mo Tingyu felt really relieved, "That's good. Firstly, we didn't steal, and secondly, we didn't do anything wrong to them. Even if they sue, we won't be afraid."
Yang Maozi echoed: "Uncle Mo, you have done nothing wrong and are not afraid of ghosts knocking on your door."
The day passed quickly. Remembering to go to the Yamen, Mo Tingyu and Song Nanzhi woke up early in the morning. After getting up quickly, they went into the kitchen to work.
It's just that they were early, and the Du family were earlier than them.
After Song Nanzhi entered the kitchen and saw the two people in the kitchen, Song Nanzhi said: "I also said that I got up early enough, but you got up earlier than me."
Mrs. Du, who was lighting a fire in the kitchen, looked at Song Nanzhi and said, "I can't sleep because I have something on my mind."
Song Nanzhi laughed, "We are just tired."
Du said, "My aunt is a hard-working person who can't sit still."
"Tell me about those ladies in the city, what do they do in the house all day long? Isn't it boring to just sit all day long?"
"They know how to play. They go shopping to buy things, invite people to come to the house to talk, and hold flower shows to see flowers. Anyway, there are many kinds of flowers."
Mrs. Du had stayed in wealthy families and knew a little about the entertainment of ladies and ladies.
When Song Nanzhi heard this, he said, "This is just looking for work when I am idle. If I want to live like this, I might as well go to the fields to pull some grass and dig some dirt."
Du said, "I am the same, auntie. I would rather do things than sit in the room and gossip with others."
"Auntie, don't you know that those ladies and gentlemen of the government were all shouting in front of me, and their faces changed as soon as people left. Some of them started plotting before they left. That day, I was tired and scared even just looking at them. , if you ask me to compare, I would still go to the mountains to cut firewood and plant crops in the fields."
"When you're tired from working, everything will be fine if you take a nap."
After the two of them laughed and made breakfast, Song Nanzhi went to wake Mo Ziwan up. Murong Qingyuan and Mo Li had already gotten up before she could wake up.
During the meal, Song Nanzhi told Mo Ziwan, "Wanwan, your father and I will go to the Yamen in a while. I don't know when we will be back. You can just eat by yourself at noon. You don't have to wait for me."
"I want to go with you." Seeing that her grandma was not going to take her to the Yamen, Mo Ziwan hurriedly opened her mouth to fight for a chance for herself.
"What are you going to do? Your godfather and uncle Youdi are with you. You, your brother Qingyuan, and sister Mo Li are at home."
"Besides, don't you still want to teach your brother Dagang and the others how to read?"
"I told them yesterday that there would be no classes today and let them do their homework at home." Yesterday the yamen came to her home to inform her that after going to the yamen today, she told Li Dagang and Li Linzi that there would be no classes today.
Song Nanzhi didn't know that she had already made plans. She must have told her earlier that she wouldn't go. "Why didn't you ask us? There are enough people going, so you won't go. Besides, you're just a kid." What to do?"
Han Shuxian, Li Youdi, Li Youcai, Li Youshu, Li Yougui, and, as they later learned, Li Changyu, accompanied them to the Yamen. Mo Tingyu and Song Nanzhi thought of having their granddaughter at home.
But how could Mo Ziwan, who wanted to go with her, compromise so easily, "My godfather and uncle Youdi are witnesses. Unlike us, we are the defendants and the victims. Only when I go can I speak for our family."
Mo Ziyuan was worried and had to go with her, so she racked her brains to think of ways to go.
Even if it didn't make sense, Mo Ziwan could explain it, not to mention it sounded reasonable now, so the Mo couple had no choice but to agree to take their granddaughter with them.
Mo Ziyuan followed, and Murong Qingyuan also wanted to follow.
Murong Qingyuan said: "I'm going to go too, and I'll probably have to sign and draw a deposit then. I went there just in time to help sign and draw a deposit."
After hearing Murong Qingyuan's words, Mo Tingyu and Song Nanzhi couldn't refuse, so they had to take them with them in the end.
Li Li blinked and hugged Song Nanzhi's legs and cried, "Grandma, what if they beat you again? I'm going to help you!"
Song Nanzhi was so sad that Mo Li cried. The girl still remembered the time when the Fan family couple came to the house to make trouble. She was afraid that they would bully her again. She hugged Mo Li and said, "Don't be afraid, so many people in the village are here this time." If you want to follow me, there is still the county magistrate in the yamen, so they don’t dare to beat anyone again.”
"They all dare to file a complaint, and they certainly dare to beat someone. Grandma, you definitely can't beat Fatty Chen. I'm going to help you."
Song Nanzhi really couldn't bear to refuse, and looked at Mo Tingyu, "Wanwan and Qingyuan have gone, so let Mo Li go too."
Mo Tingyu could only say: "Go, everyone, go to the Yamen to build up your courage. In the future, when you become bolder, you won't be bullied by others."
Li Linsong also followed Li Linsong.
Anyway, one is a belt, two are belts, and one or two more are fine.
Waiting for Han Shuxian, Li Youdi and others came to Mo's house and saw Mo Tingyu and Song Nanzhi bringing all four children in the house. Li Youdi looked at the children in the room and asked: "Uncle, aunt, the children What are you going to do?"
"Go to the Yamen to strengthen your courage, so as not to be bullied in the future." Mo Tingyu directly expressed his thoughts.
This is the first time I have heard of this reason, but it makes sense!
So a group of people walked to the county government office with four children.
On the way, I met Fan Dali and Chen who were also rushing to the Yamen.
Li Youshu saw the two people approaching and sneered, "Hey! Who is this! Isn't this the pig butcher who stole someone's things and then rake them up!"
Li Youcai also started shouting, "What a pig butcher? These are the talented people in our village. Anyone who can be as powerful as them can steal things with a reason."
Li Changyu also became familiar with the villagers, but regardless of whether he was familiar with them or not, he always wanted to support the Mo family. He did not directly scold Fan Dali. Instead, he turned to Li Yougui and shouted, "Brother Yougui, it's a good thing you're honest, otherwise I would have to go home. I can't defeat you two families by myself."
Li Youcai quit, "Changyu, what do you mean? Am I less powerful than your brother or the others?"
"That's right! You said it doesn't matter if you are talented but weak, don't you still have me?" Li Youshu also followed up and said.
Li Changyu chuckled and said, "Aren't I not used to this? In the past, whenever anything happened at my uncle's house, we were used to it as a family! It's even better now that we have brothers. From now on, no matter how we talk, do things, or fight, we will have one more person helper."
"That's not bad!" Li Youcai and Li Youshu said.
Li Yougui also had something to say, "Changyu, aren't you laughing at me! My mother is stupid and did stupid things. We have already felt sorry for Uncle Mo and Aunt Song. How can she do stupid things again? Isn't this even a beast? Isn’t it better?”
After being laughed at by Li Youcai, Li Youshu, and Li Changyu, the Fan family didn't dare to speak out, they just stayed behind, trying to stay away from them.
Unfortunately, their idea could not be realized. Han Shuxian and Li Youdi were walking together, talking quietly as they walked. When the Fan family members walked up and Li Youcai and the other two started to ridicule them, Han Shuxian's steps slowed down. Coming down, Han Shuxian walked slowly, and Li Youdi also walked slowly in cooperation.
Han Shuxian and Li Youdi slowed down, and Li Youshu and the others even slower. They just stood in front of the couple and pointed at them and scolded them.
People bully the weak and fear the strong. The Fan family couple remained silent after being ridiculed by Li Youcai, Li Youshu and Li Changyu. However, after Li Yougui's words, Chen's sharp voice scolded, "Li Yougui, you are worse than an animal. You are the best." Mother-in-law and daughter-in-law don’t want it anymore, you are worse than a pig or a dog!”
Li Yougui was startled by Chen's voice. Li Yougui was also angry. If she hadn't come to ask his mother to cut the vetch at Uncle Mo's house, her mother wouldn't have cut it. Now Chen still has the nerve to scold him. ,and
What's more, he was scolded for not wanting his mother-in-law and his daughter. Was it because he didn't want her?
Li Yougui was already angry at Chen's scolding, and now he only added fuel to the fire. He immediately raised his voice and shouted: "I am worse than a beast, even a pig or a dog, that's why I went to steal Uncle Mo." Do you think I am worse than a beast if I become a thief and steal my belongings, and I still have to sue the owner?"
Li Yougui's scolding made everyone look at him.
Mo Ziwan praised and scolded her in her heart.
Li Youshu and Li Youcai looked at Li Yougui with surprise. Is this still Li Yougui? Could it be that he was possessed by a ghost and suddenly became so eloquent?
Mo Tingyu said: "Yougui, I won't say anything about the past. This time you can go to the Yamen with your mother to testify for us. It's your Aunt Song and I who should thank you."
Song Nanzhi followed: "Yes, it's us who should thank you. Don't pay attention to those people who are worse than beasts."
Mo Ziwan was afraid that she would get excited and start a fight before she even reached the Yamen, so she hurriedly answered: "Uncle Yougui is a good person and doesn't care about bad people. Wait until you get to Uncle Wei's Yamen and let Uncle Wei beat them."
"Wanwan, who is Uncle Wei?" Li Youcai asked in confusion.
"Uncle Wei is the magistrate of our Cangxi County!" Mo Ziwan replied.
"How do you know the county magistrate?" Li Youcai continued to ask.
"He is my Uncle Wei. Uncle Wei is very nice and not cruel at all!" Mo Ziyuan simply wanted to put some psychological pressure on the Fan family couple.
Except for Han Shuxian and the Mo family, everyone else began to believe that their county magistrate was really related to Mo Ziwan. Otherwise, how could she call her uncle?
The Fan family couple are also a little confused? I started to feel uneasy in my heart. I had never heard of the relationship between the Mo family and the county magistrate before?
However, Chen was still very good at comforting herself, thinking that if the Mo family had something to do with the county magistrate, how could they have seen the Mo family live in such misery and not help?
Mo Ziyuan continued, "After Uncle Wei helps us solve the case, we will go home and cook a lot of delicious food, and then invite the uncles, godfather and uncle to eat together."
"Wanwan, what are you going to make for me to eat then?" Li Youdi teased Mo Ziwan after her words, and ignored the two Fan family members.
Mo Ziyuan raised her head and pretended to think for a while before replying seriously: "I know how to stew meat." Then she innocently talked about how to stew meat, "Put the water in the pot and put the meat in the pot to stew."
Li Youdi laughed loudly, "Yes, it's not just adding water to the pot and then putting the meat into the pot to stew."
The group of people walked to the Yamen, laughing and joking all the way, not like going to the Yamen at all, but like going to the market.
