Upon hearing the news, Magistrate Xie stared at Ma with scarlet eyes and pointed at her, his fingers trembling like sifting chaff.
"You...you are so good."
"Master... it's not me. I didn't do anything. Master, you have to believe me. There must be a misunderstanding." Ma Shi trembled, how could this happen? Things were beyond her control.
"Shut up, my Xie family treats you very well. You secretly use some tricks and tricks. My mother and I turn a blind eye, but you go even further... You dare to steal from others without telling them, and you are so bold.
Bringing people into the house, you... can't bear it, which one can't bear it?"
Magistrate Xie said, covering his chest, his face turning purple,
"Someone is here to confine Mrs. Ma in the ancestral hall. She is not allowed to take a single step without my permission."
"Master, I am really unjust. I didn't do anything. I don't know anything."
Ma's face was pale and she knelt on the ground, pulling on the hem of Magistrate Xie's clothes, looking at her with tearful eyes, and the corners of her mouth trembling. Normally, as long as she looked like this, she would always get a bit of pity.
She cannot be imprisoned in the ancestral hall. Once she enters there, it will prove that she has really made a mistake.
Unfortunately, as soon as she raised her head, she was kicked down by Magistrate Xie, "Bitch, stay away from this county. This county thinks your hands are dirty."
He was so angry that for the sake of the safety of their mother and son, he had been racking his brains to evade it for them. He would rather let Brother Yu suffer some injustice, but also wanted to keep the safety of mother and son.
Originally, he thought that after this matter subsided, he would find a chance to compensate Brother Yu. For the sake of his father, each of them had to take a step back. Personal honor, disgrace, and grievances were not as good as brotherly respect and family harmony.
important.
In the past few days, he had not slept at all in order to deal with the troubles caused by their mother and son. Fortunately for this bitch, while he was busy, he secretly had a tryst with his lover in the yard.
Or her childhood sweetheart, what is the use of such a womanly person?
Seeing Mr. Ma throwing himself on the ground, his whole body was shaking like chaff from fear, but so what?
I have done something embarrassing without knowing it. Do you think that by crying and pretending to be pitiful, you can get away with it?
There was no way out, he could let her get used to her, or he could let her die without a burial place.
Thinking of this, Magistrate Xie waved his hand directly to the woman at the door.
"Lock the eldest lady to the ancestral hall and think about it carefully. Without my permission, you are not allowed to send water or food, or take a step out."
The mother-in-law looked at the mistress sympathetically, said "O", and directly carried the person out.
Ma struggled and refused to leave, and kept shouting that she had been wronged and misunderstood. Unfortunately, Magistrate Xie was filled with anger at this time and could not listen to any of her words.
Not to mention listening to her explanation, I couldn't help but get furious when I saw her.
At this moment, a person ran in from outside and shouted sadly,
"Father, please calm down. Mother has done nothing wrong to you. She was framed."
Xie Li looked back at his mother who was holding the door frame, and then knelt on the ground with a plop.
"My son will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly and give his mother justice. Before the matter is clarified, I ask my father to calm down and be merciful to my mother."
Seeing his second son rushing in, the veins on Magistrate Xie's forehead popped uncontrollably.
"You traitor, it's all your fault. If you hadn't acted so recklessly, would there have been such scandals as today?"
Xie Li looked at his furious father, a trace of anger flashed in his eyes, but fortunately he lowered his head in time to cover it up.
"Father, you can't do this to your mother. She has tried her best to take care of the whole family over the years. She has worked hard without any credit. My grandmother praised my mother for her filial piety..."
Before he could finish speaking, he heard a bang, and Magistrate Xie slapped the table and roared angrily.
"As the mistress of the family, it is her duty to manage the back house and serve the aunt. Your mother has been really dedicated to the Xie family these years, but she has never stopped thinking about it. But because of her low family background, she is inconsiderate.
Limited, your grandmother and I have always turned a blind eye, do you really think we are blind?"
Listening to his father's unceremonious accusation, Xie Li pursed his lips. Naturally, he knew that his mother's little thoughts were all to support her parents' family.
My maternal grandfather’s family was in a state of poverty and could only make ends meet. My uncle and the others were all mediocre people, and they still put on airs and refused to bow their heads, relying entirely on their mother’s support.
The men and women in the family live a tight life relying on their mother's support, and it would be embarrassing for him to tell anyone about it.
For the sake of his maternal grandfather's family, his mother had to scrimp on food and clothing, but she didn't dare to deduct money from her grandmother's side. He saw all this and reminded her not to subsidize her parents' family excessively, lest she end up being a different person inside and outside.
Unfortunately, my mother couldn't listen to his persuasion, so she had no choice but to say that life in my grandfather's family was difficult. My uncle and the others were focused on studying and taking exams, hoping to regain their former glory.
Only when her maternal grandfather's family regains its foundation can she, as a married woman, have the confidence and backing.
When he mentioned this, he couldn't help but ridicule that every man in the Ma family had no talent for reading. Even if they slept in piles of books every day, they still couldn't read one, two or three. He
For this reason, he once suspected that he was not as good at studying as Xie Yu because of the influence of his maternal ancestor's bloodline.
He and Xie Yu are brothers. The guy went to college to study, spent three days fishing and two days drying nets, and still enjoyed great success. He was ranked first in the exam. But he, up to now, has not even passed the exam.
If it weren't for his father's relationship, he wouldn't even be able to enter the academy gate.
Because of this, he hated his maternal grandfather's family for lowering his IQ, but more than that, he hated his eldest brother's talent. His light was so bright that he could not escape.
How good Xie Yu is, the more he stretches his hips.
Living in this environment all year round made him breathless and he had already gone crazy.
They are all descendants of the Xie family, so why should Xie Yu be taller than him?
Therefore, he wants Xie Yu to live a mediocre life like him, without even thinking about scientific examinations and the like. Xie Yu is not allowed to go to places where he cannot go.
With these thoughts popping up in his mind, Xie Li raised an evil smile on his lips and looked up, looking honest again.
"Father, please calm down. Please give your son three days. I will definitely find out the truth. Grandma said that my mother has been weak and timid since she was a child. She would not dare to do anything against her conscience. If she is plotted by someone with ulterior motives, wouldn't she be hurt?
Mother’s heart?”
Magistrate Xie stared at his son and snorted,
"Since you want to exonerate your mother, your father will not stop you. After three days, if there is no explanation, your mother will either go to the family temple to atone for her sins, or get a divorce paper and return to Ma's house. This county will also help you.
She comes back."
"Father, calm down, I will definitely give you an explanation."
