When the yamen officers came into the village, naturally many people followed them to see what was going on.
Ordinary people are most afraid of officials.
The village head and the village chief are also most afraid of the officials coming.
If it's a good thing, or if someone is the victim, then everyone is happy.
If it's a bad thing, if you're being sued or are the one causing trouble, then you're causing trouble for the village and affecting the village's reputation.
The officials said that Mrs. Liu had accused Liu Qingguo of colluding with outsiders to rob her mother's family of food, which was a crime of filial piety and unfraternal behavior.
Not to mention the charge of colluding with outsiders to rob her mother's home, the charge of being unfilial and unfraternal is waiting to be brought to court. If it is really proven to be true, the reputation of the women in the entire village will be affected.
Especially since Liu Qingguo has been married for several years, people outside will not say that Liu Qingguo’s parents did not educate her well. They will only say that after Liu Qingguo got married, she was influenced by her husband’s family and became unruly.
By then, the entire village will have problems with marriage.
Therefore, the village chief was particularly excited. He walked to the Song family's yard with his crutches and asked, "Mr. Sanfu, what about your second son's wife?"
Old man Song’s real name is Song Sanfu.
The officer also understood that this matter would inevitably attract the attention of the villagers. Faced with an elderly village chief, he naturally would not make things difficult for him and also gave him some time to ask questions.
Liu Qingguo, who was called out, naturally had to defend himself.
She didn't say it now, but when she came back from the yamen, some people in the village would talk nonsense and make up all kinds of outrageous possibilities.
"I haven't even gone to sue them yet, but they got to Dayipao first!" Liu Qingguo was very angry, his eyes were red.
The Song Sanfu family has always had a good reputation in the village, and the second daughter-in-law Liu Qingguo is also known for being a kind person.
However, it is not impossible for a kind person to explode.
The village chief hurriedly asked, fearing that this kind-hearted man was forced to explode by his mother's family.
But seeing her like this, the village chief immediately realized that something was wrong.
"What's going on? Tell me. Most of the people in this village are from the same clan. You are the daughter-in-law of our Song family, and the clan can support you." The village chief asked.
Liu Qingguo's tears fell:
"My mother told me to take Huzi back with me. Many neighbors knew about it and saw me taking Huzi back to my parents' home alone yesterday morning. But when I got back, I realized that it wasn't because she missed me that she wanted me to go back. She wanted to trick me into taking Huzi back with her so that she could sell him off for a ghost marriage! If my husband and my mother-in-law hadn't been worried about me and went to look for me, I'm afraid that both mother and son would be in trouble now!"
Liu Qingguo covered his face and began to cry, feeling extremely miserable.
Naturally, the family members gathered around her and sighed.
The village chief was stunned, and the officials from the two yamen were also dumbfounded.
This kind of ghost marriage is not uncommon in every place and even among wealthy families, there will be one or two cases of buying a living person for a ghost marriage every few years.
However, in general, those who were sold for marriage were the product of the preference for boys over girls - girls.
This is the first time I've heard of selling a boy for a ghost marriage.
Although everyone, regardless of gender, is disgusted by such immoral practices as ghost marriages.
But it was really surprising.
"This isn't the Liu family's child, how could he be so wicked?"
The village chief was angry.
Song Lihu is a member of their Song family!
The result of the village chief's anger was that a large group of people including the Song family followed the officials and went to the scene.
Song Rending was also in there.
Because, in her heart, the screen was filled with the words "I want to go, I want to go" frantically, and Li Taohua thought about her ability to change words, so she simply took her along.
On the way to the yamen, Song Rending couldn't help but feel curious. Thinking about the plot direction which he had no impression of, he tentatively asked 886 to extract it, but there was no text section that could be modified.
After extracting it this way, it really exists.
However, there was still a cup of tea left before the freezing period for her last word change ended.
The government office is just around the corner.
Song Rending couldn't help but wonder if 886's reminder before she changed the words in advance was because it already knew that she still had words to change within an hour.
However, there was only a cup of tea time to continue the changes, so Song Rending did not question 886 about this matter for the time being.
In the yamen, the county magistrate had already come to the court. Liu Qingguo's mother, Liu Pozi, was kneeling in the hall. Her clothes were dirty and torn, her hair was disheveled, and there were slap marks on her face. She looked pitiful.
As soon as Liu Qingguo arrived, she seemed to come alive and rushed towards him, but she was crying in the direction of the county magistrate:
"Sir, please help me! It was this unfilial daughter who colluded with outsiders to rob my mother's family of food! That was our harvest this year! What sin did I commit to have such a daughter?"
Mrs. Liu cried loudly, her eyes were red and swollen.
However, because she fell in front of Liu Qingguo, Liu Qingguo could clearly see that there was not a single tear in Liu Po's eyes, but there was a lot of snot, and she was just howling at the top of her lungs.
Those red and swollen eyes were probably caused by crying after fighting with those "hungry people" last night, as he was defeated and suffered heavy losses.
She would cry and howl, and Liu Qingguo would naturally do the same.
After seeing how his mother's family behaved, Liu Qingguo felt so heartbroken.
The redness in her eyes from crying hasn't faded yet!
"Sir!" Liu Qingguo's crying was much more realistic, with tears falling from her eyes: "Sir! I want to sue too!"
Before Liu Qingguo arrived, the magistrate, who had been tortured by Granny Liu's crying for a long time, sat up straight after hearing this and asked, "What do you want to sue for?"
Before this, although the magistrate sympathized with Liu Pozi's daughter for being unfilial, his sympathy was questionable because she could not provide any substantial evidence.
I thought I would wait until the other party, Liu Qingguo, arrived before finding out more.
Unexpectedly, when Liu Qingguo arrived, the first thing he did was to file a lawsuit.
The magistrate suddenly became interested.
With the magistrate's approval, Liu Qingguo straightened his back, tears on his face, and loudly stated what he wanted to sue:
"I want to sue Liu Tieen and his family in Hejia Village. They colluded with outsiders to deceive me and intended to sell my only son Song Lihu for a ghost marriage. They also wanted to kill the baby in my belly!"
After returning to the room yesterday, Song Dazhi asked Liu Qingguo if she was pregnant again, and implied that he learned about it from Song Rending.
Liu Qingguo herself wasn’t sure, but she had indeed not changed her clothes for two months and had been feeling very weak recently.
I had been planning to go into the city to see a doctor today, but I was unexpectedly asked to leave by officials from the yamen before I even set off.
As soon as Liu Qingguo said this, the county magistrate immediately became anxious.
Because Mrs. Liu is still making a fuss in front of Liu Qingguo!
If Song Dazhi hadn't been kneeling on the side to protect her, she would have danced onto Liu Qingguo.
"Quick! Pull Granny Liu over here!"
As a local official, he couldn't allow a pregnant woman to bleed in court.
Just as Mrs. Liu was about to hit Liu Qingguo on the face, she was dragged aside.
"what!"
She looked up to the sky and let out a long cry.
