Chapter 40 Ask the adults to make decisions for the small people
Please let the adults make the decision for Xiaomin
Zhou Lian'er covered her face and looked at Yang Xiao in disbelief.
"You...you dare to hit me?"
Yang Xiao's face has turned red with anger: "I'll say it again, get out of here."
"Okay, okay, just wait for me."
Zhou Lian'er turned around angrily and left crying.
"Brother, why is this necessary?" Yang Xuan comforted, "It's not worth it to be so angry."
Yang Xiao sighed and said: "I didn't expect that she would become like this."
Yang Xuanxin said this is not what you are used to.
The eldest brother has always had such an honest and accommodating character, and his income is indeed too meager, so it is normal for Zhou Lian'er to complain a little.
But it was rare for someone to be so aggressive about his nose and face. Yang Xuan couldn't figure out where this sister-in-law got the courage to challenge her elder brother like this.
This is a feudal society. If the eldest brother divorces her with a divorce note, she will never have the face to see anyone in the future.
However, early the next morning, as soon as Yang Xuan went out, he saw Capt. Li walking over in a hurry.
"Shopkeeper Yang, go and take a look. Your eldest brother and sister-in-law are fighting."
Yang Xuan was stunned, the elder brother and the elder sister-in-law were fighting?
With my elder brother's ability, if he really wanted to fight, he could kill his elder sister-in-law with one slap. It seemed that the elder sister-in-law was causing trouble again.
He bowed his hands to Mr. Li, said "Thank you", and hurried towards his eldest brother's house.
As soon as I walked to the alley, I could already hear the noise coming from inside, but it was obviously more than one man's voice.
Yang Xuan stepped up and ran over.
The entrance to the courtyard of the eldest brother's house was already surrounded by spectators. He finally squeezed in, but what he saw was not the eldest brother and sister-in-law.
All three brothers from my sister-in-law's family came.
Each of the three brothers of the Zhou family held a hoe, a stick or something in their hands, and they were pointing at their eldest brother and yelling at him in a menacing manner.
And my sister-in-law, Zhou Lian'er, was causing trouble in the yard, smashing whatever she caught.
There were some flowers and plants planted in the yard, but they had all been uprooted. There were also a row of pickled vegetable jars in the corner, all of which were smashed, and the sauce flowed all over the floor.
But the eldest brother is standing guard at the door of the room, and he probably hasn't entered the house yet.
The three brothers of the Zhou family all had some dust on their bodies. They probably had a fight just now and suffered some losses, so they only dared to stand aside and scold them, but they did not dare to step forward.
Even though the three Zhou brothers are tall and thick, they are still far behind Yang Xiao. Although Yang Xiao is of average height, he has a strong body and is a head taller than the three brothers.
Seeing Zhou Lian'er searching around the yard and finding nothing to smash, she turned around and pointed at her elder brother's nose and started to curse.
Seeing more and more neighbors watching, Zhou Lian'er became more and more scolding, saying that her mother-in-law had lived a hard life with her eldest brother, but now that her eldest brother had been transferred to the city and her uncle had made money, she would abandon them.
.
The eldest brother is not good at words. When faced with the slander from his sister-in-law, he tried to defend himself several times, but all he could say was 'nonsense' and the like.
Yang Xuan didn't squeeze in. Anyway, the eldest brother didn't suffer much. As for the three Zhou brothers, if the eldest brother really wanted to take action, the three brothers wouldn't even think of walking out.
On the other hand, he himself had no strength to restrain a chicken. If he was caught by the three Zhou brothers and punched twice, he would be unjustly accused.
But the eldest brother was very angry with Zhou Lian'er this week, and Yang Xuan was also afraid that he couldn't bear the anger. If he got angry and took action and beat someone up, he might be facing a lawsuit.
Just when he was about to stop, a person squeezed over, it was Capt. Li.
"I said Capt. Li, doesn't your Yamen care about this matter?"
Li Captou spread his hands and said: "It is difficult for an upright official to deal with household affairs. We cannot take care of this kind of household affairs."
"Captain Li, what you said is wrong. If he and his wife quarrel and fight, of course we can't control it. But these three brothers are also involved, so the nature is different."
"That's what I said, but the suffering master didn't say anything. What can I do?"
What Li Captou said is correct. After all, these are all relatives. If they have a quarrel and go to the Yamen, most people would not be willing to do this.
After all, we are all members of our own family. If we enter the yamen, spend money, and suffer the consequences, it is not our family members' misfortune.
"Captain Li, look, I rented this yard. They broke in and broke my things. Can I report it to the official?"
"What was broken?"
"Here, those sauce jars, they were quarreling, why did they smash my sauce jar?"
"Do you really want to file a lawsuit?"
"Of course, this is my personal property, why would they smash it to me?"
"Since Shopkeeper Yang said so, I will just take care of business."
"Please, sir, please make the decision for me," Yang Xuan said, quietly stuffing a piece of silver into his hand.
Capt. Li narrowed his eyes, slapped the iron ruler on his waist, and called out to the back: "Brothers, follow me to get someone."
Wherever Mr. Li went, he would always be followed by three or five government officials. As soon as his boss spoke, he immediately shook off his shackles and walked in with a loud noise.
Zhou Lian'er and his three brothers were stunned when they saw the government servants and Capt. Li, and their arrogance suddenly dimmed.
When Yang Xiao saw Capt. Li, he smiled bitterly and cupped his hands: "Capt. Li, I'm making you laugh."
Mr. Li bowed his hand in return and did not speak to Yang Xiao. He just pointed at the three brothers of the Zhou family and said, "Just the three of them, get them for me."
Several government officials responded, stepped forward and locked the person up with shackles.
Zhou Lian'er was dumbfounded and hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Master, is there any misunderstanding? This is a family matter of our family."
"Family matters?"
Captain Li glanced at her sideways, pointed at the smashed sauce jars in the yard and said, "Did you smash these?"
"Yeah, but if I smash my own things, I'm not breaking any laws."
"Homemade stuff?" Li Captou pointed at Yang Xuan who had already walked into the yard and said, "Now the shopkeeper of Weijixian is suing him, saying that you smashed his jar. Tell me, you are acknowledging compensation."
Why don't you come with me to the Yamen?"
When Zhou Lian'er looked at Yang Xuan, her eyebrows suddenly stood up, she bared her teeth and started to curse: "This white-eyed wolf, if I hadn't helped you from time to time, I would have starved to death long ago, and I smashed several broken jars on you, and you still sued me
Officer, if I had known earlier, I should have let you starve to death."
Hearing her scolding, Yang Xuan frowned. Originally, he just wanted to find an excuse to drive them away, but since you are seeking death, don't blame me for being cruel.
Capt. Li had just received Yang Xuan's five taels of silver. Now that Yang Xuan was scolded like this, wouldn't it mean that he was not doing his job well? He immediately shouted: "That's enough. If you scold me again, I'll lock you up too."
When Zhou Lian'er heard this, she quickly shut her mouth.
"Tell me, do you want to pay or come with me to the Yamen?"
Zhou Lian'er didn't dare to talk to Mr. Li again, and said hurriedly: "We accept compensation, we accept compensation."
How much money can a few jars of pickles cost? If they were caught and taken to the Yamen, it would cost no one knows, and the three brothers might have to suffer some punishment.
"Shopkeeper Yang, tell me, how much do I need to pay for these pickles and jars?"
At this time, Yang Xuan already looked annoyed and distressed: "Oh, sister-in-law, how can I speak? If it is some ordinary pickles, how can I ask my sister-in-law to compensate, but the pickles in these jars are extremely delicious?"
