The county magistrate changed his career to selling private vegetables and sold them out

According to the needs of the plot, now go back half a month.

Fu Qiyuan's carriage took more than half an hour from Tianjie to Pei's mansion.

At the gate of Pei Mansion, Fu Qiyuan waited and watched for a long time.

Pei Mansion is a house bought by the Pei family in a rich area with a huge sum of money.

The so-called wealthy area, to put it bluntly, is a place where local officials and aristocratic families are more concentrated, and they are either powerful or rich.

The Pei Mansion covers a very large area, with four courtyards. The head of the Pei family, Pei Tianyou, his four sons and grandchildren live in this courtyard with four courtyards. Now the four generations live under the same roof.

Pei Tianyou's eldest son, Pei Guangnian, is still in the circle of nobles in Shanghai. His second son, Pei Guangji, is the general judge of the Yuzhou prefecture. Staying at home to perform filial piety, to put it bluntly, means that officials can't do business or do well, so they can only stay at home to eat rich and idle.

With the power in Beijing, the local dignitaries, and the support of the plutocrats, the Pei family can be said to be invincible.

Especially in the past few years, after the Pei family's money bag was linked to Shangjing, the Pei family gradually forgot what that aunt said, and stopped blindly making a fortune with their heads down, and began to show off in a high-profile manner.

Pei Cheng, the fourth son of the Pei family, and his son are the best proof.

Pei Cheng is a frequent visitor to all the brothels and wine shops, he has several concubines inside and countless outside rooms, and he has also done things like robbing wives and daughters.His son Pei Wang followed suit, more than his father, fighting fiercely!

After settling several life-related lawsuits with money and power, Pei Wang's courage swelled to a new height, and finally kicked the iron plate.

Still a deadly iron plate!
Fu Qiyuan looked at the plaque above his head, secretly counting the fate of the Pei family.

Seeing Fu Qiyuan's extraordinary image of a nobleman, the porter hurriedly stepped forward to inquire.

After learning his identity, his expression changed again and again, and he hurriedly invited the person in.

As soon as he entered the main courtyard, Fu Qiyuan heard the sound of arguing, and there was a very familiar voice.

He glanced sideways at the concierge who brought him in, and the man bowed in embarrassment, as if he was used to it.

Fu Qiyuan hooked the corners of his lips, and walked in with his hands behind his back.

The people of the Pei family had waited long enough for Fu Qiyuan to come to the door, and even the servants who guarded the door knew about it, so they didn't send someone over to pass on the news first, and the porter brought them in directly.

"Don't you want to spout blood! Why is Yuan'er so cold-blooded? He is just enforcing the law. Your own son doesn't try to rescue him. Now that something happened, I should be blamed on Yuan'er. What's the point?"

"Cheng Lan! Your good son is a wolf-hearted thing! My son never killed anyone, but he sentenced to death and took my son's life. He is an evil son! He will be struck by lightning!"

"Shut up! You wicked woman, you dare to curse my child, I will fight you!"

"I'm going to kill you! It's all your fault! If you hadn't written to ask my master to help you deal with your son's woman, my son would not have died! Cheng Lan, I'm going to kill you!"

"Stop it all! Pull people away!"

The sound of cursing, crying, throwing cups, and smashing chairs came into my ears.

The concierge took two steps forward and said tremblingly, "Master, Mr. Fu is here!"

The room returned to calm for a moment, and then, Mrs. Cheng, Mrs. Shangshu, rushed out the door screaming, hugged Fu Qiyuan, and cried miserably.

She is wronged!

After coming to Yuzhou for so many days, there was not a day when she was not pointed and scolded by her fourth cousin and sister-in-law, and there was not a day when she was not criticized and stared at by Pei's family. The uncle who loved her the most also spoke coldly to her, even her mother-in-law Don't even help her!

Fu Qiyuan helped Cheng to his side, straightened his clothes, and bowed to the head of the Pei family, Pei Tianyou, and Mrs. Cheng who came out.

"Fu Qiyuan, the son of the Fu family, has seen his uncle and grandma, and asked his grandmother how he is."

Pei Tianyou looked Fu Qiyuan up and down, but said nothing.

Mrs. Cheng stepped forward to help Fu Qiyuan up, and said with a smile: "Good boy, let grandma take a good look at you!"

The joy in Mrs. Cheng's eyes was faint but real. She took Fu Qiyuan's hand and patted it lightly, and said, "He's a good boy, unlike your mother who is confused! Go, go in with grandma."

Pei Cheng and Mrs. Xu stood at the door, staring at Fu Qiyuan with fire-breathing eyes, wishing they could pounce on him and take a bite.

Pei Tianyou snorted coldly at the couple, and under the signal of Mr. Pei, the two of them retreated unwillingly.

Mrs. Cheng greeted her grandson lovingly, and Mrs. Cheng echoed from time to time, regardless of the expressions on the faces of the others, just looking at the three generations of grandparents and grandchildren, they were happy and harmonious.

Mrs. Xu couldn't bear this scene, she couldn't hide the resentment in her heart, and asked sharply: "Master Fu came all the way to give my poor child an explanation? I hope my son's soul is still there, What face do you have to act filial piety in the Pei family?"

Madam Cheng's face turned cold all of a sudden, she gave Mrs. Xu a cold look, and said nothing.

The scene was silent for a while, Pei Tianyou patted the armrest of the chair, and shouted to Pei Cheng and Xu Shi: "Shut up, you guys, get out if you don't want to stay here!"

Xu's complexion changed slightly, and she covered her face with a handkerchief and began to cry softly.

Fu Qiyuan took a sip of the food, and said with a faint smile: "Uncle and grandpa don't have to be like this. Since I've come to Pei's house, this lawsuit between relatives has to come to a conclusion. Fourth Master Pei and Mrs. Pei don't need to shy away. But it’s okay to say.”

There is no bureaucratic tone, and the relationship between relatives is recognized, which can be discussed.

"Kill to pay for life! I hope my son's death is wronged, and I want you to pay for his life!" The moment Xu opened his mouth, it was a dead end.

Pei Cheng's face changed slightly, he glared at Xu Shi, then turned to Pei Tianyou and said, "Father, she is talking nonsense, you don't need to pay attention to her!"

Isn't it crazy? The emperor would not dare to sentence a magistrate to pay for the life of a condemned criminal.

Before Pei Tianyou said anything, Mrs. Cheng jumped up excitedly, pointed at Mrs. Xu and cursed: "You poisonous woman! What kind of a fellow is your son? He is ignorant and does all kinds of things that hurt the world! He deserves to die! My Yuan'er is an official of the imperial court, if you dare to make my son pay for his life, you have eaten a bear's heart and leopard courage!"

Mrs. Xu has been dazzled by resentment. At this moment, she is not even afraid of death, but afraid of threats?
What's more, her son died because of helping the Cheng family, but now she keeps blaming her son for his death, which is unbearable!
"I'm dead! Cheng Lan, you black-hearted poisonous woman, I will fight you hard!" While speaking, Mrs. Xu had already rushed towards Mrs. Cheng.

"If you don't care about the life and death of your two daughters, just make trouble!"

Mrs. Cheng's sudden words stopped Xu's footsteps in place.

She also has two biological daughters, one is married and the other is still in her boudoir.

Thinking of something, Xu shivered and retracted her hands, closing her eyes in despair.
