Chapter 59: go to court
Mrs. Li returned to the yamen again, feeling very different from before. With a plop, she knelt down on the marble floor, with her hands forward, and saluted Fan Zhixian.
"Master Qingtian, you have a wrongdoer and a debtor, Li Haitang has been arrested, so there is nothing for us to do in the future, right?"
Mrs. Liu was still thinking about the five taels of silver cheated by Li Haitang before, and her heart ached. She had lived half her life, but she was coaxed by a brat!
But the situation is different now. Her family, Qiuju, is promising. After marrying Liu Fu, she goes to the Qin family to eat delicious food and drink spicy food. She has her own accent.
"Li Haitang, are you a perfect body now?"
Fan Zhixian didn't pay attention to Mrs. Liu at all, and stared at Li Haitang with a frown, thinking in his heart, that old man outside the Qin Dynasty, who is about to enter the coffin, still doesn't forget to be romantic, this little lady is beautiful, talented, and she has such a good figure. Two years from now, there may not be any style.
It's a waste of Li Haitang and Qin Yuanwai, he might as well make a personal favor, ask Qin Yuanwai for someone to come over, and be a maid in the study to serve pen and ink, red sleeves will add fragrance.
"My lord, this..."
Li Haitang was speechless. Whether she was perfect or not had nothing to do with the fugitive slave incident! To answer or not to answer?
"As far as I know, your grandmother sold you to the Qin family, and your contract of sale and Geng Tie belong to the Qin family."
Fan Zhixian stroked his beard with his hand. In theory, marriage needs to exchange Geng Tie, if there is no Geng Tie, it can only be regarded as private life.
Li Haitang rubbed her forehead. Both the original owner and herself knew little about the laws of Daqi, and she had heard a little about the exchanging of invitations when getting married.
"My lord, before my mother died, she entrusted me to Big Brother Xiao. I can't let my mother die without closing my eyes."
Li Haitang was deeply saddened, avoiding the most important, and said, "As soon as my parents left, my grandma took the uncle's family and robbed the fields and houses left by my parents to our siblings. I can bear all of this. Money is something outside of me. Just a bite to eat."
A good girl never gets married again, and Li Haitang crossed over because the original owner voted for her, whether she really wanted to die or pretended to be, it was all to resist the marriage that the Li family had arranged for her.
"Although the truth is so, if you are betrayed, your marriage can't be counted at all."
Fan Zhixian talked about a lot of Daqi laws, which made Li Haitang dizzy. After all, it was all about the punishment of fugitive slaves. As long as she pleaded guilty, the Qin family would not pursue her. , this matter is overturned, otherwise, the fugitive slave will be sentenced to exile for a felony.
"Master Qingtian, I just don't believe that my grandma can sell me as a dead bonded slave, is it a mistake?"
Li Haitang rolled her eyes and decided to change her strategy. She turned her head and glanced at Mrs. Li with trusting eyes. She can study, but when she becomes a servant girl, all she does is serve people."
Unlike the jumping just now, Mrs. Li didn't say a word, she was guilty. At first, she wanted to marry Li Haitang to earn a dowry money and improve the family's life, but Mrs. Liu told her that if she could sell him to death, she could get two hundred taels of silver more.
Two hundred taels is enough to buy a small yard by the street in the town, turn it into a shop, rent it out, and earn more than a dozen taels of silver every year.
Anyway, Li Haitang is a girl's film, and sooner or later the water will be poured out. Mrs. Li doesn't care, but she did it for no reason.
The second son, Li Dahe, went to the county to bring back the Ruan family, and insisted that he wanted to marry the Ruan family.
That Ruan family is delicate and weak, she can't do work when she sees it, and she can't speak, and she keeps silent when asked, which makes her very unhappy.
Anyway, the other party didn't want a betrothal gift, saying that she was an orphan girl with no relatives, so Mrs. Li took it as a free pick-up, and after weighing the pros and cons, agreed to their marriage.
After the marriage, the Li family separated, and their lives were peaceful and peaceful, but not long after the good times, another disturbance was caused by the birth of Li Haitang.
The Ruan family had just married for less than eight months, and this girl was born at full term, that is to say, Li Dahe has become a successor, and Li Haitang is not an heir of the Li family.
Mrs. Li is more disgusting than swallowing a fly. She is a person who wants to save face. She has been thinking about driving this cheap granddaughter out of the house.
"Don't call me grandma, who knows where you came from!"
Mrs. Li was most annoyed by Ruan's demeanor. Seeing Li Haitang pretending to be pitiful, she burst into a fit of anger and yelled, "Just like that dirty mother of yours!"
"Above the court, stop talking nonsense!"
Fanzhi County saw the excitement, so he tapped on the hall wood, coughed twice, and asked the officials who were talking back and forth below, "How is it, the deed of prostitution?"
"Responding to my lord, Qin Yuanwai is unconscious. We asked the housekeeper to open the box and got it."
The official was holding a piece of yellowed thin paper with red handprints on it. He was illiterate, so he handed it to the master standing next to him.
The master opened the folded paper and was about to check it, but was interrupted by Li Haitang, "My lord, you are Master Qingtian, I have a small request, I don't know if I should say it or not."
Fanzhi County likes to be praised the most, so he immediately closed his eyes with a smile, and said in a good mood, "Tell me!"
"My lord, this marriage was arranged when my mother was alive. Besides, I have already belonged to Brother Xiao. If I am really sold to the Qin family, I can only be a servant of the Qin family. If not, I hope Take back your Geng Tie."
Li Haitang has only one purpose, Geng Tie. If she breaks up with the Qin family in the future and has troubles again, Li Qiuju is not a cheap lamp, she has no patience to continue dealing with these people.
"Okay, my officer approves."
Fan Zhixian thought it was no big deal, so he sent his men to Qin's house to ask for Geng Tie.
Liu curled her lips sarcastically, thinking, even if they want to come to Gengtie, so what, they specially spent money to find a scholar to write the deed of selling their lives, and their fingerprints are all pressed, so there will be no mistakes! No matter how hard Li Haitang struggled, it was useless.
"Hai Tang, woo woo, I'm sorry, I didn't know."
Li Qiuju knelt on the ground and kept wiping away tears with her hands, expressing that she didn't know about the sale of the deed, otherwise she would definitely stop her because of the deep love between the sisters.
"Cousin, don't blame yourself, maybe this is my fate."
Just pretend, whoever is afraid of whom! Li Haitang lowered his head, tears fell silently on the bluestone board, leaving a puddle of water stains. If she hadn't seen and heard it with her own eyes, she would never have thought that there was a mastermind behind the scenes.
