FH Chapter 60: 被黑了一把
[Blackened]
Everything and what your heart expects is different, Li Qiu Ju is very uncomfortable, this time, Li Haitang should not bawl? She ran away from the marriage, even if she is still a virgin, her reputation is completely gone, with the petty nature of Qin’s flaws will be rewarded, it will certainly be hard to punish her.
It’s good to cry now, when she left the government office, probably Li Haitang couldn’t even cry!
“Haitang, what will you do in the future?!”
Li Qiuju took out a small handkerchief and rubbed her eyes hard, her voice was like a mosquito, “I heard that the Qin Clerk is most fond of abusing maids. Over the years, the Qin family didn’t know how many of them had been lifted out from the back door, that is, a roll of grass mats, thrown to the chaotic gravesite, and the officials couldn’t care less about it!”
“Cousin, why are you so sure that Grandma sold me?”
Li Haitang raised her head, her eyes washed by tears were extraordinarily sparkling and crystal-clear, she said bluntly, “Did you already know?”
“I … how could I know the facts or the details of an incident?”
Li Qiu Ju was very flustered, her eyes drifting, explaining, “We sister’s relationship is so good, if I was informed, I must have tipped you off. Grandma knew it like this, and let me go to my grandmother’s house to stay for a few days.”
Li Qiu Ju’s ability to shirk responsibility is first-class, the initiator (the originator of an evil practice), a bellyful of evil tricks, still pretending to be innocent, said, “Haitang, don’t worry, I won’t leave you alone in the future.”
There is a pharmacy in town that sells medicinal powders that are instantly recognizable, and when the skin is open and the flesh is broken, a little bit of medicinal powder can stop the bleeding, and the wound will heal in a few days, Li Qiu Ju specifically mentioned this to add to Li Haitang’s problems, and they are good sisters and family members, and she will definitely not stand by and do nothing in the future, or at least she will ask someone to send in the medicinal herbs.
Li Haitang laughed coldly, the matter of deed of sale has not been cleared yet. It’s sure that they will suffer later, isn’t it too early to say it?!
About two quarters of an hour later, the official returned, this time holding a geng tie, written on the body of the original owner of the birth date, the birth date is the seventh day of the seventh month, she has just reached maturity soon.
“Sir, Counselor Qin woke up once in the middle.”
The official stammered, glanced at Li Haitang, full of sympathy, such a beautiful little lady, exiled to the Northwest, no need to wait until the Great Northwest, will be lifeless.
Northland and Northwest, separated by thousands of mountains, the road escort officials to relieve ten thousand torrents and a thousand crags—the trials of a long and arduous journey, there is beauty, who are still willing to spend silver to go to the brothel ah, that a little bit of cattiness, they all understand.
“Oh? What did he say?”
The County Magistrate Fan took the hot tea handed over by the Private Adviser and took a sip, “The theft of the Qin family, this official sent people to investigate, Counselor Qin you don’t need to be in a hurry to get angry.”
“Counselor Qin said that he will follow the charge of escaping slaves, and asked for a heavy sentence from your honor!”
The official finished and lamented, the Qin family was present; he indeed could not knowingly fail to report what one knows about a case.
Li Qiu Ju’s eyes lit up, and her mother Liu glanced at each other, if not in the public hall, she was too lazy to pretend, must have touched three feet high.
“Jie…”
Li Jin Hu put the Li family’s honor in the eyes, he only knows, Li Haitang is her own sister, if it really is not the daughter of the Li family, then it’s good, who would like to have this viper, all day long thinking about harming their own relatives!
“Don’t be afraid.”
Xiao Lingchuan, from the beginning to the end, is very calm. Li Haitang’s little bit of fear has long disappeared without a trace, she patted her little brother’s arm, signaling him not to panic.
“Master, was the file of the deed of sale sent to the government office this morning?”
County Magistrate Fan glanced at the deed of sale, his face was full of doubts, this group of people from the Li family clearly couldn’t see Li Haitang, that’s why they sold her for silver, but on the deed of sale, why was it Li Qiu Ju’s name?
“Yes, my lord.”
Seeing County Magistrate Fan puzzled, the master took a glance at the deed of sale, and immediately changed his face, not only the name on it, even the date of birth, it was not Li Haitang’s.
“Granny Li, you said you sold your granddaughter Li Haitang, you should not be able to read, who wrote the deed of sale for you?”
County Magistrate Fan carefully put away, knocked the hall wood, serious expression, scared Li old lady a shiver.
“It is… Xiu Cai Gong (a scholar who has passed the county level imperial exam) who was hired in the town?”
Li’s old lady could not feel the situation, but she also saw the abnormality, and tremblingly asked, “Your honor, is there anything wrong with the deed of sale?”
If there was a problem, the Qin family wasn’t stupid and would not spend a lot of silver ah.
The ninth day of the ninth month of September, the Chongyang Festival (Double Ninth or Yang Festival), do you have anyone in your family who was born on this day?”
County Magistrate Fan frowned and asked again.
“Replying to my lord’s words, my daughter Qiu Ju was born precisely on the ninth day of the ninth month.”
Liu touched the sweat on her face, always feeling that something was wrong, but she couldn’t tell.
Mentioning the ninth day of the ninth month of the ninth month, Li Haitang was completely relieved, she tapped her neck with her hand and secretly stretched her hand out of her sleeve, penciling in a victory gesture for Xiao Lingchuan.
Xiao Lingchuan nodded, his eyes deep, his heart sighed at her resourcefulness, he thought of going to the Qin family to steal the horoscope cards afterward, he did not expect,he was mentioned by her directly in the public hall, but also let the two people’s marriage perfectly legitimate.
“Li Qiu Ju, you come, here is the seal paste, press your handprint.”
For the sake of caution, County Magistrate Fan found a piece of white paper and greeted Li Qiuju as she came forward.
“Your Honor, what is this for?”
Li Qiu Ju’s heart thumped, how come the situation in front of her was nothing like what she thought!
Ever since County Magistrate Fan had read the deed of sale, he had stopped paying attention to Li Haitang, and thinking about that horrible possibility, her eyes went black, her body swayed, and she almost fainted to death.
It was clearly an unexpected mistake or mishap! Governor Fan was impatient and greeted his men, the officials came forward, forcibly grabbed Li Qiu Ju’s hand and pressed the handprint.
“Sir, this deed of sale is written by Li Qiu Ju, the birth date, handprints all match, there is no slightest difference.”
The Private Adviser carefully compared the lines of the handprints against the oil lamp and finally came to a conclusion.
“How is this possible?”
Liu exclaimed, she went forward and crawled on her knees for two steps, crying, “Justice and Incorruptible Officer, are you looking at it wrong, we personally grabbed Li Haitang and pressed the handprint ah, what does this have to do with Qiu Ju?”
“Misreading? Are you saying this official can’t recognize the words?”
Being questioned by a village woman who can’t read big words, County Magistrate Fan was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, and told the official to take the deed of sale and go to the door to find people who can read to recognize it.
“I can’t recognize many words, but it says Li Qiu something.”
At the doorway, the people perked up their ears and listened intently, seeing the officer take the deed of sale out, recognizing the words crowded in front to see.
“The ninth day of the ninth month, this is right ah!”
“It’s Li Qiu Ju, born on the ninth day of the ninth month in the year Geng Yin (twenty-seventh year G-3 of the 60 year cycle, e.g. 2010 or 2070).”
One of them, is the children’s picture-story book shop manager, the early years of the examination on the Xiu Cai, and then more than twenty years, have not been able to pass the examination, discouraged, in the county a small bookstore, a lot of people used to look for him to name and write letters, the shopkeeper said that it is Li Qiu Ju’s deed of sale, then there will be no mistake.
“Impossible ah, how can it be, how can it be Qiu Ju!”
Old Mrs. Li didn’t believe it either, it was clearly written that it was Li Haitang, and the Xiucai who was looking for her didn’t know Li Qiu Ju, much less her birth date!
Could it be that the deed of sale was switched?
“Grandma, I knew you wouldn’t sell me!”
Li Haitang narrowed her eyes, intending to let Old Madam Li take the blame, “You said the family was short of silver, I begged and pleaded, didn’t you promise not to sell my cousin?”
“Bullshit!” Facing Liu’s and Li QiuJu’s eyes, Old Mrs. Li’s heart clogged up again, she was blackballed by Li Haitang, and it was difficult for her to clarify.
