The old woman became rich by relying on the supermarket instead of selling her granddaughter

Old Mrs. Fu usually acts like a big shot in the Fu family, but when she heard that she had to go to the yamen to meet an official, she immediately became frightened and stood there speechless for a moment.

Fu Xinren was not much better, he was even more scared than his mother. His mother did not understand the law and did not know the specific consequences.

But he had studied for so many years and knew a little bit about the law, so he would secretly beat He Erhua at home without letting the neighbors know about it. The neighbors sometimes saw the haggard mother and daughter of He Erhua, but because they could not see the injuries on their bodies, they just thought it was the mother-in-law, Mrs. Fu, who beat them.

When Fu Xinren heard that he was going to court, he was so scared that he became like a weak shrimp and almost collapsed to the ground.

The courage he usually had when beating He Erhua was now gone.

Even though Fu Xinren's body was already shaky, Wei Hai had no intention of letting him go.

He walked forward and stretched out his big hand, dragging Fu Xinren as if he was carrying a chick, and walked towards the county government office.

Meng Lan led He Erhua and others and followed behind, rushing towards the county government office.

The whole town was not big, and they soon arrived at the county government office. When they arrived at the gate of the county government office, Meng Lan said she wanted to report to the authorities and sue Fu Xinren, the unfaithful man.

The yamen runner at the door told her expressionlessly that she needed a complaint before she could sue someone. As for the large group of people coming, the yamen runner didn't even bother to give them a glance.

As soon as the bailiff finished speaking, before Meng Lan could say anything, Hao Ren swiftly took off the bookcase from his back, rummaged through it, and took out paper and pen from it.

"Aunt, how do you think I should write?" Hao Ren ground the ink and looked at Meng Lan with the brush in his hand.

Meng Lan said quickly, "Fu Xinren abused his wife and daughter, and hooked up with prostitutes. He is unworthy of being a husband and a father! Today, He Erhua wants to break up with him and take her daughter away..."

Meng Lan was halfway through her words when she realized that she didn't know her granddaughter's name. She turned her head and looked behind her, her eyes filled with surprise for a moment.

Only then did she realize that the little girl in He Erhua's hand was actually the little girl who was hiding behind the big tree and secretly watching her that day!

She asked why she felt so close to the child when she saw him that day.

It's really like a family that doesn't recognize each other. This is actually her granddaughter.

But there are important things to do now, and it is not the time to exchange feelings. Meng Lan didn't say much and looked directly at He Erhua.

"Erhua, what's my granddaughter's name?"

He Erhua thought that her mother taking her away, and even taking her daughter away with her, was already a good thing. She didn't expect her mother to go to such lengths for her, and even dare to go to the government office for her.

Her head was dizzy and it was obvious that she hadn't reacted. She answered whatever Meng Lan asked.

"Fu Yinzhang." He Erhua said in a low voice.

Meng Lan couldn't help but frown when she heard the name. Although she was not educated, she had read some books. Although the name Yin Zhang was not as direct as Zhao Di and Pan Di, it had the same meaning.

Zhang means the joy of having a boy. Yinzhang means to bring a boy into the family.

The birth of girls is not something people look forward to; they carry the hope of bringing a boy into the family.

It seems that in this era, the trend of favoring boys over girls is quite strong. Families like the Hu family next door and Meng Chuncao's family are still a minority after all.

She wanted to do something, but felt powerless.

Meng Lan sighed in her heart. All she could do now was to make sure the women and girls around her had enough food and clothing so that they could live a better life.

The most important thing at the moment is He Erhua's matter, and Meng Lan doesn't have time to think too much.

After she heard her granddaughter's name, she quickly said to Hao Ren, "Today, He Erhua is going to break off relations with Fu Xinren and take her daughter Fu Yinzhang away. I beg the great judge to grant justice!"

Anyway, Meng Lan's character is an uneducated peasant woman. It doesn't matter if she says something wrong, as long as her meaning is clear. If her words are too perfect, that would be abnormal!

After listening to Meng Lan's words, Hao Ren sorted out Fu Xinren's crimes and Meng Lan's demands in his mind again, picked up a pen and wrote a petition.

After the ink on the paper was basically dry, Hao Ren handed the complaint to Meng Lan.

Meng Lan handed the complaint to the bailiff and secretly put a small piece of silver into the bailiff's arms. This was the silver she had just exchanged from the system.

Although Meng Lan felt a little pained about losing this small piece of silver, money is dead but people are alive.

As long as there are people around, they will make a lot of money sooner or later.

After the yamen runner squeezed the small piece of silver that Meng Lan stuffed into his hand, his serious face immediately became much kinder. He held the complaint and spoke to Meng Lan in a much more pleasant manner.

"Madam, please wait at the door. I will go and give the complaint to the adults."

After the bailiff finished speaking, he took the complaint into the yamen and said to Meng Lan when he came out.

"You are very lucky today, old lady. Our master heard about this immoral thing and was very angry. He plans to try the case himself. You don't have to go in. The master will come out soon and publicly try the case at the gate of the county government office."

Meng Lan was very surprised when she heard this. She didn't expect that the "cash power" was so strong. A small yamen runner was quite powerful.

Meng Lan is not naive enough to think that this is simply because they are lucky.

As the saying goes, it is easy to see the King of Hell, but difficult to deal with little ghosts.

If the yamen runner really wanted to make things difficult for them today, there was no need to make a big fuss. He could just send the complaint inside and be done with it. As for whether the county magistrate could see it or not, that was none of his business.

This is also the reason why Meng Lan gave money to the yamen runners. After taking her money, they would say a few good words for her.

Meng Lan didn't expect that this yamen runner was quite conscientious. To achieve this result, she estimated that he had said more than just a few nice words. He must have said dozens of nice words.

In short, the first step of bringing back He Erhua went very smoothly, which immediately gave Meng Lan a boost of confidence.

She turned around and looked at He Erhua deeply. Her eyes seemed to say: Her Erhua, she would definitely take her home.

Soon a group of people came out from the yamen and set up a simple court at the gate.

Then a square-faced man in official uniform walked out, followed by a few people behind him. Looking at his posture, Meng Lan thought that this man should be the county magistrate.

Meng Lan stood there waiting for the procedure to begin, when she suddenly saw the little yamen runner who had just taken her money suddenly blinking at her frantically.

What's wrong? Is your eyelid twitching? This shouldn't happen at such a young age.

In a flash, Meng Lan suddenly had an idea and thought of another meaning of the little yamen runner. She didn't expect that this man was so thoughtful and would help others to the end!

As soon as Meng Lan and the other county magistrates sat down, they pulled He Erhua down to their knees.

What's the point of having gold under your knees? That can't be eaten. Sooner or later, the people will kneel before the officials anyway. It's better to take the initiative, play the victim to win sympathy and maximize the benefits!

Meng Lan and He Erhua knelt down in front, and Fu Yinzhang also knelt behind her mother.

When the three sisters He Chuanzong, Jiang and He Zhaodi saw that the elders in the family had taken the lead in kneeling, although they didn't understand why, they felt that it was right to listen to their mother/grandmother.

So one after another, they knelt down behind Meng Lan.

The county magistrate hadn't even sat down in his chair when he saw a group of people kneeling in front of him. He was stunned at first, but then he was delighted. It seemed that his charm was still as strong as before, and he had convinced so many people before he even said a word.

The county magistrate was secretly delighted, but his face remained serious. He looked sternly at Meng Lan, who was leading the group.

"Who is in the hall?"

Although he had read the complaint before, he still had to follow the proper procedures. With so many people watching outside, he had to show off his power as a county magistrate.
