Four hundred and ninetieth chapters Weng son-in-law two

Although the lawsuit between You Baochu and Dong families has come to an end, the lawsuit is actually over, but other entanglements have just begun.

As for whether other disasters will occur in the future, no one will know now.

In fact, shortly after the case ended, no one was interested in talking about it. At most, the story goes that the scholars made up things during the temple fair and deceived the audience into spending a few small amounts of money.

Of course, all the characters in the story have been changed, and the plot is no longer based on the case-solving process, but the love and hatred of various male and female protagonists, the love and hatred of the maid and the master, the love and hatred of the lady and the coachman, and even the dead but rich man left his posthumous kid, and was picked up by the old coachman. After many years, he grew up and became a coachman, and then he performed various love and hatred with a rich lady and maid.

Especially the descriptions of various details are unbearable, but the listeners listen with relish. Storytellers even make several moves, which are unbearable, but the listeners are very interested in seeing them.

In short, this case has been rumored to be messy and there is no way to see its true form. Of course, this is also beneficial to You Baochu and Wen Dengke in the case, at least others will not associate it with them.

Shortly after the case was reported to Chang'an, there was a reply from Chang'an that Mao Xiaowu, the murderer, would of course be sentenced to death. Wang Juansi, who was responsible for the trial of the case, also became unlucky and was directly dismissed. The clerk escaped. Of course, the clerk did not treat Wen Dengke like that, so it was normal for him to not deal with him.

However, the governor of Yanzhou was transferred from Yanzhou City and assigned to a remote area to be a county magistrate. This was definitely deposed, but the reason was not because of the reproach of the case and the slander of human life. Instead, he dug up the mistake he had made before and used this as an excuse to repair him. It is basically certain that after he finished serving as a county magistrate, his career ended here, and there was no possibility of being activated again.

Li Rizhi was quite satisfied with this result. He still handled official duties every day and had some achievements in governing Qianfeng County. When Qianfeng County had a bumper harvest, Li Rizhi did not impose additional taxes, and no ordinary people went to perform labor service. Therefore, the people of Qianfeng County had a very comfortable autumn.

Autumn is coming and winter is coming, and the weather is getting colder. Whether in the city or in the village, all kinds of idle people are beginning to appear, chatting and doing nothing every day. Such people are both men and women. Basically, this kind of situation occurs every winter when the Chinese New Year is approaching, which is not a noticeable abnormal situation.

However, even if the people are bored, no one will gather around the county government to chat and spank.

Ordinary people still have awe of the government. When they are free, they try not to get close to the government. Therefore, they are more calm near the county government.

On a street next to the county government office, there is a letter stall. This letter stall mainly writes letters to people and can write prefaces. Of course, if the customer needs it, the owner of the letter stall will also calculate a fortune for him, such as marriage, wealth and health, etc. As long as the customer can mention it, the owner of the letter stall can calculate it for him.

As for whether the calculation is accurate, it depends on how the owner of the Letter Stand explains, but the owner of the Letter Stand has always been able to explain how it explains.

However, the main business of the letter stall is not to write letters for others, nor is it to tell fortunes. It is only a matter of writing letters. If it is a fortune-telling, it requires traveling around the streets and alleys. In this way, fortune-telling business is easier to do. After all, fortune-telling is often inaccurate. Even if the owner of the letter stall can justify himself, fortune-telling customers will still have an impact if they come to find a fortune-telling customer and make a fuss, they will still have an impact. If such a thing is spread, the business will become increasingly difficult, and no more people will come to him to tell fortunes.

Therefore, the most important business of this letter stall, which is very close to the county government, is to write letters for others. This business is the most profitable and the income will be relatively stable.

Before Qianfeng County, there were still many people suing. Although most of the time it was a neighborhood dispute and was trivial, if there were too many such small things, the business of the letter stall could naturally be maintained.

Of course, in major lawsuits, most of the time, the plaintiff will go to someone he is familiar with, or people who can write in the village to write a letter, and will not find a letter stall to write it unless it is a special situation.

But there are a few special situations that can happen all year round, so the business of the letter stall can only be maintained. If you want to make a lot of money, don’t even think about it.

However, since Li Rizhi became the county magistrate, he has obviously been more efficient in handling cases. Unless it is a major case involving human lives, the degree is very fast, and the tolerance of the people who come to handle cases has also increased. If there are some small cases that the people do not bring a certificate, the clerk will record the matter and then deal with it.

This efficiency is related to the newly recruited officials in the yamen, and everyone is still very motivated to work.

But in this way, the business of the letter stall becomes increasingly difficult to maintain, and the owner of the stall will naturally be very unhappy. This involves the income issue. If the owner of the letter stall can still be happy, it would be a strange thing.

The owner of the letter stall near the county government office is an old scholar. It goes without saying how good his knowledge is. If there is real material, he wouldn't do this anymore!

However, the old scholar's attitude was extremely high. It can be seen from his name that his name is Huang Tiandi, which is quite loud.

On the evening of that day, it was already dark, and Huang Tiandi had bought the stall and was very depressed. He just wrote a fortune to someone today and earned more than ten cents. This little money was barely enough for him to eat. After all, the prices in Qianfeng County are not very high, but it would be difficult to eat some good food and drink some wine.

Huang Tiandi packed up his stall and returned home. Although his income today was not very high, his family's life was pretty good because he had a good son-in-law, who often helped him.

The son-in-law's name is Chang Yutang, and he is also a scholar. He has land and houses at home and lives a very comfortable life. He specializes in lawsuits for others and is called a lawyer in this era. Of course, the profession of lawyer is quite unpopular by the government. Officials everywhere hate such people.

But no matter how annoying he is, the profession of a lawyer cannot disappear. Especially when ordinary people are suing, they often consult with lawyers and even ask lawyers to help them sue.

Especially when a family property lawsuit is fought, it means that the elders in the village cannot be resolved. If the people in the city are in trouble, it will be even more troublesome. Especially when brothers are dividing the property, they really can become enemies, and no one is willing to retreat. In the end, they can only go to court. At this time, they often need to find a lawyer to reason with them.

Chang Yutang is particularly good at fighting such lawsuits.

Chang Yutang happened to come to Huang Tiandi's house that night. Seeing Huang Tiandi come back dejectedly, he said, "Father-in-law, what's wrong with this today? Is the business a bad thing? Or is it that you didn't know what to do with you because the customer found you, didn't do anything with you?"

Huang Tiandi shook his head and said, "That's not, but business is getting harder and harder now. I'm so old and I can't go around the streets and alleys. I can only set up stalls in a fixed place, but business is getting harder and harder. Tell me how good it would be if there was a confused official in our county. But now this official is not confused at all. It's a waste of life!"

Chang Yutang smiled and said, "Father-in-law, look at what you said. You are selling coffins. There are not enough people who are afraid of death. This is not good!"
