Chapter 402: Porcelain
Seeing that Lin Manjin not only wanted to recover the silver hairpin, but also had to parade in the street, he immediately expressed dissatisfaction and argued hard, showing that he had been wronged.
"My lord, I beg you to understand clearly, the grassroots are just spending some money to make the Wang family pay with their flesh, how could they commit adultery!"
Seeing the officer go out, Lin Manjin yelled in despair and sat down on the ground.
There was an adulterer father who was paraded through the streets, and his husband's family was implicated. He couldn't afford to lose this man. He didn't dare to think what kind of blow his daughter would suffer.
After being divorced, no one will be famous in the future, so he can only take her and go far away.
Lin Manjin regretted it. Looking at Wang's face, he felt disgusted for no reason. This unlucky girl has harmed his whole family!
"My lord, it is also Lin Manjin's idea to ask for the silver to make a silver hairpin."
Wang stared blankly at the hair all over the place, her eyes became hollow, numb, and indifferent. She only wanted to keep the silver for herself at most. root.
Li Haitang sat for a while, and her body started to feel cold. The magistrate finalized the case, so she didn't have to sit in and join in the fun, and followed her husband to the magistrate's back office to go home in a carriage.
It was already dark, and the cold wind was raging. Li Haitang was hungry all afternoon in the Yamen.
"Before going out, the chicken was simmering in the pot, and now it's almost soft and rotten."
Xiao Lingchuan made a dish, braised chicken with flowers. First, chop the chicken into pieces, add some flour, deep-fry in oil pan, then take it out and stew it for a while. After a long time, it will become soft and the meat inside will be crispy. up.
After speaking, he accelerated the speed of driving.
Ahead, from the alley at the corner, a black figure suddenly appeared, Xiao Lingchuan shouted, "Lady, hold the handle on the carriage!"
At the same time, he tightened the horse's rein to avoid the shadow, otherwise, the horse's hoof would definitely have stepped on it.
Li Haitang reacted quickly. Sitting in the corner of the carriage, she only felt that the carriage was swaying and not stable enough. She was eating a snack, and her stomach was overwhelmed and her head was dizzy.
"Husband, what happened?"
Li Haitang knocked on the wall of the carriage, Xiao Lingchuan opened the door and jumped into the carriage with a very nervous expression.
"I'm fine, I just shook."
The carriage stopped suddenly, with momentum, she was unprepared and almost vomited.
"A dark shadow sprang out of the alley, it's really desperate."
Xiao Lingchuan shook his head, wondering what that person was doing. In the middle of the night, even if no carriages were galloping, the sound of horses' hoofs trampling on the bluestone road could be heard far away.
"Oh, I can't get up, what a crime!"
From under the carriage, there was a shout, which sounded like a woman.
Xiao Lingchuan comforted his wife, and then got out of the carriage, it was dark, he couldn't see her face clearly.
"Is there someone who drives like you? People will die. My leg seems to be broken and I can't move."
The woman ouched twice, her voice was crying, and she was complaining.
Xiao Lingchuan could see clearly, the horse's hoof never touched the woman, if he hadn't responded in time, the woman would probably never be able to speak.
He watched coldly and listened to the woman talking, and he made a mistake in saving lives.
The woman appeared out of nowhere and ran to the front of the carriage, wanting to kill herself, no wonder he.
"I've been injured, so you have to pay some money anyway. If you hurt your muscles and bones for a hundred days, you have to drink soup and medicine to nourish it. At least ten taels of silver should be paid."
In these few months, the woman can't work, so she can only give birth and support her children.
The carriage belonged to the magistrate's yamen, and it was temporarily borrowed. The woman looked at the grandeur, and thought that she would open her mouth when she met a rich man.
Xiao Lingchuan pondered, he is not good at dealing with women.
"Husband, have you bumped into someone?"
It's cold, and a fall may cause a fracture. Although they are not at fault, if the other party is injured, she will take the initiative to compensate.
This concept is brought from modern times, people-oriented, but it's a different story for Porcelain.
"Lady, it's so windy, why did you come out?"
Li Haitang carried a lantern and got off the carriage, Xiao Lingchuan hugged his wife in his arms, using his body to resist the cold wind behind him.
Illuminated by an oil lamp, everything below became clear. The woman's hair was just a little messed up. She was sitting on the ground, looking at her posture, and she didn't look injured at all.
Looking at her face again, Li Haitang froze, seeing an old acquaintance.
"You are... Li Haitang?"
Mrs. Jiang squinted her eyes and looked at Li Haitang's clothes. She heard that this girl had transformed into a famous doctor Li Haitang.
She hadn't heard from Li Dahe before that the cheap girl knows medicine, she must have learned it from the Ruan family, bluffing and deceiving.
The Ruan family is a thorn in her heart. With the Ruan family, she is an outsider who will never see the light. After giving birth to a pair of children, she dare not go back to Li's Village openly.
She and Li Dahe have been in love for many years, but they can't match this **** Ruan, isn't it just that he is good-looking, man, he is really heartless.
"Jiang's?"
Li Haitang also recognized the person, and everyone in the village knew that Mrs. Jiang eloped with a widower blacksmith with the money of the Li family, and took away a pair of children. The money was quite a lot. But I met someone in the border town.
It is said that the enemy's road is narrow, and the two of them do not have a deep hatred, but she dislikes Jiang Shi very much.
"Hey, it's said that noble people forget things a lot, and your memory is not bad."
Jiang patted her buttocks and sat up from the ground. Li Dahe's daughter, logically speaking, was her daughter, and Jiang was regarded as Li Haitang's stepmother.
"You may not know that I have been expelled from the Li family, and the Li family has nothing to do with me."
Li Haitang silently added in his heart, except for his younger brother Li Jinhu.
Now she sees that the Li family members, including those related to them, are extremely annoyed.
"I don't ask you to call me mother, your younger siblings have nothing to eat, unlike you who eat spicy food all day long, so you can't just ignore it, right?"
Mrs. Jiang took it for granted, she came out to touch porcelain, she just wanted to earn some money, but unexpectedly, she would be a fat sheep when touched.
Li Haitang was rich, so if he missed a few hundred taels, it would be enough for his family to live for several years.
Jiang's life was not good. After she eloped, she hurried back to the village to visit her widowed mother.
Once the people of the Li family village found out that she had run away, they had to search for her with great fanfare, so they left a piece of silver for her mother, and the Jiang family and the blacksmith ran to the city and rented a small yard to hide.
The Li family couldn't search door to door in the city to find someone, at least, she was familiar with the border towns, and used to work with Li Dahe, if they went to other places, it would be difficult to settle down.
Living together with a blacksmith, there is a man who is a pillar of the family and will not be regarded as a widow and be targeted by others. At first, the blacksmith was fine, and the two of them took away nearly a thousand taels of silver from Mrs. Li. They didn't have to go to work, and they could eat meat every meal, and their days were as happy as gods.
