Farmer's Cannon Fodder: Listen to me, the whole family, change the plot
Chapter 11: Breaking off a Relationship in Court
The long howl that Liu Pozi raised to the sky was particularly harsh. The magistrate frowned and slammed the gavel.
"Silence! No shouting in the court!"
Seeing Mrs. Liu making such a fuss and looking out of control, the magistrate could only order people to control her and separate her from Liu Qingguo.
After taking a look at Liu Qingguo who claimed to be pregnant, the magistrate simply asked someone to bring a doctor to take her pulse.
The result of taking Liu Qingguo's pulse naturally showed that she was more than two months pregnant.
The magistrate didn't want to ask the pregnant woman, who wasn't even pregnant yet, to kneel down, so he just asked her to stand up and talk.
Upon hearing that Liu Qingguo was really pregnant, Mrs. Liu knelt there with her head lowered, her eyes rolling around restlessly.
The magistrate asked Liu Qingguo to explain in detail what she had just said about the Liu family selling her son for a ghost marriage, and Liu Qingguo told him everything she knew.
However, she didn't know which family it was, and she was not clear about it. She could only describe the appearance characteristics of the strong men last night in detail.
After she finished speaking, the magistrate naturally asked Liu Pozi.
Granny Liu naturally had her own explanation: "My Lord! I am an unfilial daughter! How could you even make up such a lie! My husband, son, and grandson are all lying at home, covered in wounds. Could it be that I hired someone to beat them up so that they couldn't get out of bed just to sue her?"
The one who came to the yamen to file a complaint with Mrs. Liu was her daughter-in-law, and there was not a single male member of the Liu family to be seen.
When she said this, her daughter-in-law also started to cry:
"Sir, those villains beat people and ran away. We can't find them at all. My husband, father-in-law and son are all unable to get out of bed. We asked a doctor to see them. I swear to heaven that those people were brought back by my aunt!"
After saying this, she started crying even more sadly.
Among the common people watching the trial, there was a man from Hejia Village who also saw the Liu family hiring a doctor and responded from outside:
"Sir, Granny Liu and the others were not lying. They invited a doctor to their home early in the morning. There seemed to be some fighting last night!"
There was a witness here, and the magistrate turned his gaze to Liu Qingguo: "Liu Qingguo, what do you have to say about what the Liu family said?"
"I was called back by the Liu family. The messenger can testify that it was the Liu family who asked me to go back with my son, not me to go back with others to rob food. Moreover, I am a country woman, how could I have the ability to ask someone to do such a thing!"
Liu Qingguo's eyes were filled with tears and his look was stubborn.
[Oh my god, I only know that the Liu family sold Brother Huzi for a ghost marriage, but I don’t know which ghost marriage it was for! 6! Is it time to thaw it! ]
Song Rending was eager to change the words, because from the text she saw, as long as the words were changed, the situation would take a big turn for the better.
[Ten seconds left, please wait.] 886 replied.
"Your Excellency, my daughter has been restless since she was young. Asking some strong men to help is a difficult task for others, but it is very easy for her!"
Mrs. Liu directly slandered her.
[Three seconds left, the text is ready, please prepare to change the words!] 886 said.
【Mrs. Liu thought to herself: The ghost marriage of Master Gao's family cannot be accomplished. We had to persuade those warriors to go back and hide, waiting for compensation. If you don't bite today, Liu Qingguo, you have to pay 80 taels of silver to repay the deposit given by Master Gao. That's not the end! A girl who was exchanged for me was originally suffering for my daughter. After raising her to this age, she should repay us. Fight with me? The word filial piety will crush you to death! It would be best if the Song family also abandoned you, and then resell you and make a lot of money! 】
[886, change "Xin Shuo" to "Xin Shuo"! ]
When Song Rending's voice sounded, Liu Qingguo, who had wanted to speak, suddenly didn't know what she had just said. There was a lot of information in this voice, and she was a little stunned.
The situation is similar for other members of the Song family.
Mrs. Liu, who had been planning to wait for Liu Qingguo to say something and then use filial piety and her prepared words to suppress Liu Qingguo, did not hear Liu Qingguo's voice. She looked up, said "Pooh" in her heart, and lowered her head with a pout.
She lowered her head, her mouth curled up, and spoke in a loud voice:
"Master Gao's ghost marriage is not going to work. I had to persuade those warriors to go back and hide, waiting for compensation. If you don't bite today, Liu Qingguo will pay eighty taels of silver to repay the deposit given by Master Gao, and that's not the end! A girl who was exchanged for me was originally suffering for my daughter. After raising her to this age, she should repay us. Fight with me? The word filial piety will crush you to death! It would be best if the Song family also abandons you, and then sell you to another large sum of money!"
This time, not only the Song family members fell into silence and stunned.
The entire court, including the magistrate who was sitting there, fell into silence and stunned.
Mr. Magistrate: Did this man speak out what was in his heart?
Mr. Magistrate: You have so much to say!
County Magistrate: !!! What am I paying attention to? Her words are full of information!
But Mrs. Liu didn't realize that she had said what was in her heart, and she was still kneeling there with a pout on her face.
The daughter-in-law who was kneeling beside her looked at her in disbelief, grabbed her sleeve, and called out in a trembling voice: "Mom..."
Her daughter-in-law wanted to say something else, but Liu Qingguo, who had come back to his senses after hearing the same sentence twice, interrupted her.
"I'm not your daughter, I was exchanged by you!?" Liu Qingguo was very emotional. In an instant, all the time from childhood to adulthood passed by in front of her eyes. The different treatments that she couldn't understand before, she understood in an instant: "You exchanged me from my biological parents and let your daughter go to my biological parents? You also want to plot against my son! Explain yourself to me clearly! Explain yourself to me clearly!"
Liu Qingguo could hardly stand, and only with the support of Song Dazhi and Old Lady Song beside him did he not fall to the ground.
Because they were in court, Old Lady Song didn't speak freely just now.
But at this moment, she couldn't help it.
"Pah!" Old Lady Song spat at Mrs. Liu who just realized what she had done. "I was saying, how can your Liu family, who are all ugly bamboo shoots, produce such a juicy bamboo like Qing Guo? It seems like you are not a family at all. Swapping the children? You will go to jail!"
After spitting, he looked at Liu Qingguo, who was almost fainting due to health reasons.
Old Lady Song said to the shocked magistrate, "Sir, this old woman Liu has spoken her mind contentedly and explained the matter clearly. It was the Gao family who needed someone to arrange a ghost marriage. They did something immoral, and it has nothing to do with Qingguo, right?"
The panic on Mrs. Liu's face and the anxiety in her eyes were obvious.
So the magistrate nodded.
Old Lady Song continued, "Mrs. Liu's family exchanged their children several decades ago. This was against the law, right?"
The magistrate nodded again.
Old Lady Song continued, "Sir, my Qingguo cannot bear such a family of evil spirits, so I hope you can be a witness and sever the relationship in court. I only hope that you can deal with the Liu family according to the law. If there is any news about my Qingguo's biological parents, I hope you can let me know."
Old Mrs. Song spoke very straightforwardly.
The magistrate looked at Liu Qingguo, who was obviously in a bad state, and asked, "Liu Qingguo, what do you think of what your mother-in-law said?"
Liu Qingguo gritted his teeth and said, "What my mother said is what I want to say."
Mrs. Liu knew that she had said the wrong thing, but that didn't stop her from wanting to jump.
After hearing what Liu Qingguo said, she stretched her neck and wanted to say something, but the magistrate gave her a look and shut her mouth.
Liu Qingguo was a pregnant woman and had experienced such emotional ups and downs, so she asked to break off the engagement. The magistrate asked the legal advisor to draft a letter of severance of engagement, and under his witness, forced Liu Qingguo to sign it.
And because the subsequent events were mainly related to the Liu family and the Gao family, seeing that Liu Qingguo looked unwell, they sent officials to take her to the clinic for diagnosis and prescription.
The Song family left very quickly.
The families that could afford to buy a living boy for a ghost marriage were naturally wealthy ones, so it had nothing to do with them. The magistrate also said that he would send someone to inform them of the results.
They didn't stay any longer.
[It would be nice if I could know who Second Aunt’s biological parents are.] Song Rendong muttered.
