Chapter 150
Soon, Ling Cang returned to the mansion out of breath and reported to Deng: "Ma'am, I heard from those yamen servants that the master usurped other people's property and was sued by him."
Mrs. Deng was stunned when she heard the words, and said in a low voice: "Why is this so? It's too wronged!"
Pei Jingqian immediately reacted and said, "Who is the complainant?"
Deng said anxiously: "That's right, who exactly is going to make things difficult for our Pei family?"
Ling Cang said: "As far as the villain knows, the plaintiff's name is Cui Yunhao, and he is Jie Yuan who took the provincial examination this year."
Hearing this, Mrs. Deng felt as if she had been hit by a thunderbolt from the blue sky, and her whole body was numb and stiff. Pei Jingqian was even more furious, and couldn't help scolding: "You bastard! How could the Pei family take over his property? His family is obviously poor!"
After finishing speaking, Pei Jingqian suddenly heard a movement from his head, and immediately turned his head to see that it was Deng who couldn't bear the blow and passed out.
"mother!"
Pei Jingqian carried his mother back to the room, and ordered his servants to quickly invite the doctor.
Not long after, Deng woke up, stared at the ceiling intently, suddenly pulled Pei Jingqian's sleeve, and said in a panic: "Go! Go to my room to get something."
Pei Jingqian helped her up, and said blankly, "Mother, what are you taking?"
Deng didn't have time to talk to his son in detail, so he quickly shook off his supporting hand and strode towards the bedroom. Once he entered the door, he rummaged through the boxes and cabinets, and soon found a black rosewood box. He opened the lid and took a closer look. A bead lay.
Deng took out the beads and raised them high, as if to throw them to pieces.
Pei Jingqian hurriedly stopped her and said, "Mom, what are you doing? Why did you throw beads into the room as soon as you woke up?"
Deng's eyes darkened, and he trembled all over and said, "If it wasn't for this bead, how could the master ask them to take it away?"
Speaking of this, she Qi Qiran said: "Qian'er, in fact, I saw that Cui Yunhao had other schemes from the very beginning. I reminded him several times, but the master just refused to believe it, and waited for Cui Yunhao to marry him." Daughter through the door."
Pei Jingqian was startled when he heard the words, and said, "Mother, don't be sad, tell me quickly, what happened?"
Deng stabilized his mood, and told the whole story of the whole incident.
After hearing this, Pei Jingqian said, "Hey, what do I think? It's just such a small problem, mother, how difficult is it to solve it?"
Deng was taken aback for a moment, and said, "Why did you say that?"
Pei Jingqian said confidently: "Many years have passed, who knows and can remember this clearly? How can Mr. Tao listen to Cui Yunhao's one-sided words and punish his father? Let's go to the government office now, obviously In vain, tell Mr. Tao that the two beads were the private property of the Pei family from the beginning, but they were accidentally stolen by Cui Yunhao, and let the servants catch them. Now that Cui Yunhao belongs to the villain, file a complaint first, and we can counter him !"
When Mrs. Deng heard the words, she nodded slightly, expressing her great agreement with his approach, and said: "It's all my fault that you just messed up. You are right, the beads are the private property of our Pei family, and Cui Yunhao has no evidence to prove that That thing belongs to him, A-qian, we mother and I will go to the government office to fish your father out now."
Pei Jingqian nodded again and again, his dim eyes lit up instantly, Cui Yunhao might be capsized in the gutter today!
Mrs. Deng took Pei Jingqian and came to the mansion quickly. She was about to break in to see Pei Wencan, but she asked the guards to stop her at the door. She only knew that Mr. Tao had ordered that no one should secretly meet with the perpetrator.
Pei Jingqian said, "My father hasn't been sentenced yet, so why aren't we allowed to meet?"
The guard said coldly: "That's why I only talk about the criminal, not to mention, it's up to you whether you should be sentenced or not."
What a stubborn donkey, even though Pei Jingqian was furious, he still tried his best to suppress it, and said, "I am a recruiter this year, and the yamen took my father away for no reason. If I am not allowed to meet my father, then I will pay a visit to Mr. Tao. This request does not matter." Not too much?"
Hearing this, the guard raised his head and glanced at him in surprise, his complexion improved slightly, and he said, "Of course not too much, show me the greeting card."
Pei Jingqian was taken aback when he heard the words, he hadn't even had time to prepare the invitation when he left the mansion this time.
The guard could see that there was no greeting card on him, so he said, "Please wait for a while, I'll inform Tao Zhifu first."
After saying that, he turned around and walked into the mansion. Pei Jingqian, Mrs. Deng and the butler Ling Cang stood at the bottom of the steps and waited. After a while, the guards came over unhurriedly and said to Pei Jingqian: "Master Zhifu wants to see you, follow me come on."
He led Pei Jingqian and Mrs. Deng into the mansion, but they didn't come straight to the court like Cui Yunhao did yesterday.
Deng Shi felt faintly uneasy. It was the first time in her life that she went to court, but fortunately Pei Jingqian was beside her quietly comforting her.
Not long after he was about to be promoted, Tao Dingkuan, the magistrate of Hangzhou, came out and sat on a chair majestically.
When Pei Jingqian met Mr. Tao, he could stand and bow, while Mrs. Deng had to kneel down.
Tao Dingkuan looked at Pei Jingqian with a smile on his face, and asked, "Why is Mr. Pei looking for this official?"
Pei Jingqian said respectfully: "My lord, Xiaosheng came here because my father was taken away. Not long ago, several officials from the yamen suddenly came to the mansion, claiming that my father had stolen other people's property, and they couldn't help but arrest him."
Tao Dingkuan nodded and said, "That's right, but the trial of this case has not yet started."
Hearing this, Pei Jingqian hurriedly said: "My lord, I'm afraid there is some misunderstanding. My father is honest and responsible. He usually respects etiquette and dare not go beyond the rules. How could he do such a bad thing as robbing other people's property?"
Tao Dingkuan had heard Cui Yunhao talk about the reason before, so he hated the people in the Pei family. Now that he heard Pei Jingqian complaining for his father, he coughed dryly and said, "Whether I misunderstood, I have to interrogate him to find out." Come to a conclusion, Pei Jingqian, do you know whose family property your father is ignoring?"
Pei Jingqian wriggled his lips and almost said the three words Cui Yunhao, but in an instant, he suddenly came to his senses, and hurriedly changed his words: "Xiaosheng doesn't know."
Tao Dingkuan shrugged his brows, and shouted, "Bet on Pei Wencan."
As the order was issued, the yamen servants on both sides suddenly rang together: "Pei Wencan!"
It didn't take long for the guards to escort Pei Wencan to the lobby. Although he didn't suffer much, he did become in a bad mood, drooping his head, like an eggplant beaten by frost.
Seeing that he was so depressed, Deng almost burst into tears. If it wasn't for the inappropriate atmosphere, she would have rushed to Pei Wencan immediately.
Pei Jingqian hurriedly dissuaded his mother, and when Pei Wencan was kneeled down by the yamen servant behind him, Tao Dingkuan said sternly, "Pei Wencan, do you understand who came to the government yamen to sue you?"
Pei Jingqian just wanted to send a wink to imply that Pei Wencan pretended not to understand, but he was still a step late.
Pei Wencan said angrily: "Of course I understand, it's Cui Yunhao! The bastard who can turn his face faster than a book! People do one thing in front of one another and back things in another."
Pei Jingqian hurriedly reminded him: "Father, don't talk too much!"
