Chapter 48

"Why is it suspended? What's going on?" Qiu asked her husband in a low voice.

"This bastard is robbing a civilian girl on the street. That girl won't be killed in the street. The censor has the news and handed over a document to sue your family, accusing Qiu Shilang of covering up his in-laws and doing mischief. The official department issued a letter asking me to stay idle!"

Qi Hong's sense of righteousness was dizzy, and the servants who didn't even retreat from the yard just shouted out the reason for his suspension. The tone in his heart couldn't stop. Get a beating.

"Hit! Hit me hard! Break his evil leg! Let's see how he tries to rob the girl!"

Jia Ding beat the second old Qi with a thick stick and screamed. His wife struggled and wriggled and used her body to cover her husband to be beaten for him. So the two husband and wife were beaten together, crackling and sticking to the flesh. Their children cried and screamed and were ignored.

"Don't beat it to death, keep your breath, it's too bad for the dead at home!"

After listening to her husband's words, Mrs. Qiu was so angry that her parents' family suffered from this incident for nothing, but she also knew why the imperial censor used Qiu's family as a raft. In addition to taking the opportunity to apply eye drops, it was also because Qi Hongyi's official position was too low to be worthwhile. The censor specially handed over the papers, and now it is not a loss to sue the two families with a single one.
Qi Hongyi is the only official in the family. Although he is a small and small official, he is an official who eats imperial grains. When the family members of officials go to the official warehouse to buy rice, it is a different kind of rice. It is better than that of the common people. You can buy [-] pounds at a time.

"Xianggong!" When Qiu thought about the theft of the granary at home and her husband's suspension from work, his heart ached uncomfortably, "Xiaogong, you are now suspended from work, will it be affected by going to the official warehouse to buy rice?"

"No, the crown belt is idle to keep the official body, and can buy rice." Qi Hongyi's emotions are still on Qi's second child, watching him in anger and being beaten blue and purple by his family, listening to his wife's question. , "Why ask this?"

"The granary at home was stolen, and it was all stolen, and not a grain of grain was left!" Qiu sobs, her eyes turned red, and she began to wipe her tears while holding the handkerchief.

"What?!" Qi Hongyi was shocked, unable to care about his second brother and sister-in-law anymore, and grabbed Qiu's wrist forcefully, "The granary was stolen?!"

Qiu Shi was in pain but did not dare to shout, and nodded desperately, "Just now, the clerk in the cashier came to report a letter. We are checking if there are any missing servants in the family, so you will come back."

"That's the grain of the six granaries! Six!" Qi Hongyi also felt that the front of the granary was darkened. Although the six granaries were not full, the hoarded food for the family to eat this year is definitely no problem. Now tell him that the granary has been stolen? !
"Xiang Gong, what should we do now? Every household is short of food. Even if I go back to my mother's house to borrow food, I don't think I can borrow much."

Qi Hongyi couldn't do anything better. After listening to Qiu's words, his face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and the Yue family was sued by the censor. He didn't have the face to borrow money.

"Is there any food left at home?"

"The food at home is only stored in the kitchen, and I can't last a few days with gruel."

Qi Hongyi was so irritable that he wanted to scratch his head. Hearing Erfang's wailing and wolf howling made him even more irritated. With a wave of his hand, he let the servants spare the lives of the couple, otherwise it would be fatal to fight again.

"What's going on with them? Why are your parents tied up? Let them go!"

"It's Qi Ke, she wants to count the property and get back her mother's dowry and the gifts from General Bai's mansion. The long house did not take those things, all of which were divided by the three uncles, so..." Qiu shi deliberately picked their long house. When she came out, she only put the pot on the third room below. She was far away anyway, and she spoke in a low voice, so it was impossible for Qi to hear her.

"Presumptuous!" When Qi Hongyi heard this, he was furious, and he looked past the figure of Qiu's family looking for Qi Ke, "Where is Qi Ke? Where is she? How dare you to copy the property of the elders?!"
