Fan Lizheng also heard about the troubles between the two families. As for Li Guangping, it was the head of the Li clan who talked to him first.
Seeing his attitude, I really didn't want to interfere with Li Guangmao's family affairs.
Fan Lizheng went to talk to Li Guangmao, "Brother Guangmao, you bastard, it's all my brother and sister-in-law who don't know how to teach their children! In today's matter, Sanzhu was too gentle, even if he beat the person to death, he deserved it! It's not like this Send people directly to the government office, which saves a little face for our Fan family and leaves a way out for those younger generations who want to make progress. We all know this well. Next, whatever Brother Guangmao says...just do it. !”
In front of so many villagers, speaking like this can be regarded as open and honest, and it can also be regarded as accepting the Li family's favor in person.
Li Qiu Sui couldn't help but raise her head to look at Fan Lizheng. She had seen Fan Lizheng twice when she was buying mountain land at home. She just called him "Grandpa Lizheng" but never said a word officially.
Is this the kind of person this person is? Or could it be that her family intended to give in and put on a show?
Li Guangmao has always been upright, and Fan Lizheng's actions suit his temper. "Brother Fan, we live in the same village. If we are not afraid of affecting the future of the younger generations of the Fan family, we will send them directly to the government..."
Li Dazhu knew his father's temper and was afraid that he would directly make up his mind for the third child. Just as he was about to interrupt, a woman's cry came over: "Daniu, my son..."
You know who this person is without looking. Fan Daniu's parents are here. The villagers who were watching also made way for them, and the two of them entered the hall smoothly.
The Fan family members who went to call them explained the whole story. Fan Daniu's mother cried, and his father stepped forward and gave Fan Daniu a slap in the face, "You still have the nerve to cry. You taught me that." Good son!"
Fan Daniu's mother began to kowtow to Li Guangmao, "Brother Guangmao, it's because we failed to educate our son well. As long as we spare his life today and don't drag down the clan or implicate our nephews and descendants, we have no undue responsibility... …”
Fan Daniu was beaten by his father twice more. Don't look at him as a bastard, but he has a lot of ideas. At this point, he can't even admit such a thing to death. "Father and mother, those people forced me to do it. I If I don’t, they will beat me to death!”
The old couple spoke clearly and clearly, and they didn't look like parents who could raise a bastard son like Fan Daniu.
Li Qiusui glanced at Fan Lizheng from the corner of his eye. The old man looked obviously relieved. These words were what he had hinted to his clansmen to teach him!
This shows that his family did not want to make the matter a big deal. They were sure that Li Guangmao was an upright person and wanted his family to let Fan Daniu go.
It's true when you think about it. Fan Daniu's parents are both over sixty years old. Fan Daniu is lazy and doesn't go out to earn money. He rarely goes to his own farm and he doesn't have a wife. The old couple is busy inside and outside. , all year round, barely surviving starvation.
Now that he was kneeling down in tattered clothes, many villagers looked away.
"Lao Fan and his wife are pitiful. Why did they give birth to such a bastard son!"
"Yes! Fortunately, no one in the Sanzhu family was injured. The eldest son of the Ma family was seriously injured, so let's pay him some money!"
"The most disgusting ones are those robbers. Da Niu is a bastard. I have never heard of them robbing homes in the past. They are probably the ones who forced me to do so."
"Sanzhu, just let Da Niu Yima go. We will help these people take you to the Yamen overnight."
Li Guangmao and the old couple were considered contemporaries, and they wanted to forget about it. Li Dazhu pulled his sleeves, and he reacted and looked at Li Sanzhu.
Li Sanzhu had a sullen face. He had to put this matter aside for now. He really couldn't see the trick, but even if he could see the trick, he was still riding a tiger and felt indescribably depressed.
Although my family didn't suffer any loss, I still couldn't bear to expose it so lightly. But if you hold on to him, in front of the villagers, you will inevitably be suspected of being unreasonable and unforgiving.
Fan Daniu kept shouting that he was forced, and the villagers were moved to pity by the pitiful appearance of the Fan family couple. The robber leader finally spit out the rag stuffed in his mouth.
"Fan Daniu, you son of a bitch, didn't you say that Li Sanzhu's family has made a fortune, how can we know who he is? Don't be fooled by this grandson. If he doesn't go to jail, why did he send us? Go to jail! Even if we meet the county master, we will bite him out..."
The leader of the robbers wanted to drag Fan Daniu into the water as soon as he opened his mouth. This man really didn't tell lies. He had a clear conscience. If they were fighting and robbing houses like them, it would be fine if they were not caught. If they were sent to the Yamen, they would be gone in three to five years. Gonna stay in jail. He could also see that Fan Li was trying to save Fan Daniu, so if they held Fan Daniu back, they might not be able to do it. At worst, they would kowtow to apologize. No one in Li Sanzhu's family was hurt. That Ma family broke the arm of his boss. , pay some money, I guess they don't dare to make a big deal out of it.
Thinking of this, the robber leader changed his excuse again, "It was Fan Daniu who proposed to borrow some money from Li Sanzhu's house. Little girl, we will return the two silver ingots you gave us! Brother Ma family, I'm sorry. Ah, for your arm, our brothers promise to find the best doctor for you, and we will also offer you a gift. From now on, in every village in the world, if anything happens, you will give me Jia Tie's name!"
The people in the village looked at each other, and no one spoke for a while.
The Fan family stopped beating and scolding their son. This could really happen and their son would be fine.
Fan Lizheng's mind was racing and he didn't want to speak for a while.
Li Guangping had no intention of getting ahead from the beginning to the end, but he was actually very excited. Li Guangmao's family was so poor that they suddenly became rich, so they didn't take him seriously! It's okay now. Without him as the patriarch to stand up for their family, they would only be bullied by others.
He enjoyed watching the play.
The old man Li Guangmao also reacted at this moment, and his hands were trembling with anger, "Guangping, you, the patriarch, are looking at us and your nephew Sanzhu, being bullied?"
The old lady of the Ma family was crying in front of her. She was very angry with these robbers. She couldn't help but think about it in her heart. She was an old lady with little knowledge. She didn't want to offend Fan Lizheng or these robbers. bandit.
Looking back, I thought it was just a breath of relief, so what good could I get?
After all, this matter still went to Li Sanzhu's house.
Mrs. Ma stopped crying now and couldn't help but glance at Li Qiusui.
This also involves threats and inducements!
Li Sanzhu almost laughed angrily and stopped Li Chang'an who was about to speak, "...right and wrong, when you get to the Yamen, the county magistrate will naturally judge."
Pointing to the leader of the robbers, he said: "Jia Tie, right? I don't care about your reasons. It's a fact that you broke into my house with a guy, and it's a fact that you took my money. My family also has the secret skill of growing fruit trees. According to the laws of this dynasty, , robbing families and homes is not enough for the county master to sentence you to death, so I will just pry into the secret skills. I will beat you to death today, and I will take care of you when you get to the county government!"
There was a child at home who wanted to take the imperial examination, and Li Qiu Sui was going to Zheng's house. He knew very well that he had a lot of weight and was unable to help the child. If he knew more, he would not be a black eye.
In the past two years, Li Sanzhu has learned how to read and write using the law, and now he can speak clearly and logically.
