003: Uncle and nephew disagree

ah--

Unfaithful, unfilial and unrighteous!

These three accusations are too heavy. Ordinary people will lose their skin when they are touched. All three accusations fall on them. A person cannot face social accusations while living, and will bear the stigma of being unclearable after death.

Regardless of men, women, young and old, you have to be a good person to survive in this world.

Cheng Zhishu didn't give his elder brother any face.

The neighbors' eyes of Cheng Qing and Liu family changed.

If Cheng Zhishu's accusations were true, they were just talking to a person who was "unfaithful, unfilial and unrighteous". Everyone's sympathy fed the dog, and no one would feel comfortable.

Of course, it is not that they believe whatever Cheng Zhishu says. At least the accusation of "unfilial piety" is doubtful. Cheng Zhiyuan and his stepmother Zhu have conflicts, so they all know that the neighbors know that.

But these two points of unfaithfulness and unrighteousness... Cheng Zhiyuan is really greedy for disaster relief money?

Liu wanted to defend her deceased husband, but when she was in such an occasion, she was anxious and couldn't even speak clearly, and she was incompetent in defense.

The three daughters of the Cheng family want to speak, are you willing to listen?

Not willing!

What is a little lady in a boudoir? It means that the daughter in the family is raised in the boudoir before she gets married and has no qualifications to participate in major events.

Only Cheng Qing, as Cheng Zhiyuan's "only son" and the only male in the family, can argue for his deceased father at this time--

"Uncle San, my father and step-grandmother split the family, and she didn't want any wealth. She gave up everything that the eldest son of the second family should have inherited. This is also called unfilial? Old news, my nephew does not want to argue with my third uncle. I believe there is still a document of the separation of the family in the clan!"

Cheng Qing looked very annoyed.

In fact, I didn't respond to sending a letter to the old house. I carried the coffin to the door of the second room and closed the door. Cheng Qing had already expected the attitude of the second room.

However, the step-grandmother Zhu was also very stingy. After 19 years of separation, she still wanted to give her original wife and eldest son a stigma of being unfilial.

Cheng Zhiyuan was stigmatized, and Cheng Qing could not be defeated. She was the "son" of an unfaithful and unrighteous person, and she would be unable to move forward in the Great Wei Dynasty.

How can this work?

Cheng Qing can be emotionally excited without acting:

"As for disloyalty and unrighteousness, my father was the ninth-rank lord and entered the officialdom. He worked diligently for more than ten years and became the seventh-rank magistrate. He suffered a flood in Hetai Prefecture. My father ran on the front line of flood control and died on the river embankment. Jiangning County is the least affected county in the entire Hetai Prefecture. He deserves the trust of the court and the people under his rule. The third uncle can erase his father's achievements and efforts by touching his mouth. It's too, too much—"

Too shameless.

The enthusiastic Mr. He answered this in his heart.

"You yellow-mouthed child, you open your eyes and tell lies. Your father was clearly a suicide by sending a minister to Jiangning County. He hanged himself in the county government with a rope. If he didn't do anything wrong, how could he commit suicide in fear of crime? You will only admit it when the court announces the charges? Such an unfaithful, unrighteous and unfilial person cannot tolerate him, and the Cheng family's ancestral tomb cannot tolerate him. Letting his coffin enter the door will dirty the land of the second house and defiling the Cheng family's family's integrity for a hundred years!"

Cheng Zhishu knows a lot.

Cheng Zhiyuan was indeed hanging in the county government with a rope.

Cheng Qing woke up too late. If she had come here early, she would definitely not agree to Liu's hasty support to return home.

The woman in the back house did not understand the twists and turns, and only thought that the imperial envoy who investigated the case was a good person. She could not find the so-called account books in the county government, so she gave the extrajudicial mercy and allowed the Cheng family to bury Cheng Zhiyuan first.

Haha, after being buried inexplicably, wouldn’t Cheng Zhiyuan’s “death of suicide” become a fact? If he can’t find the living, he will blame all the charges on the dead. After all, the dead will not defend himself.

Cheng Qing is very suspicious whether he really committed suicide or was "being suicide"!

Cheng Qing couldn't reverse what had happened, but she could still grasp what had not happened - after she "wake up", the coffin was transported to the inn outside Nanyi County. It was too late to return to Jiangning County, so Cheng Qing could only sing such a big show to recover some disadvantages.

Cheng Zhishu was aggressive, and Cheng Qing was not frightened. He scolded the imperial envoy so badly that he wanted to use the title of the imperial envoy:

"Uncle San, the imperial court has not convicted his father yet, and the imperial envoy Zhang is still stranded in Hetai Prefecture to thoroughly investigate the disaster-stricken and corrupt case. Uncle San can understand the progress of the case better than the imperial envoy Zhang, and convicted his father himself? It's ridiculous. Uncle San said that my father was unfilial, but I want to say that my uncle has no brotherhood and is not as good as these righteous neighbors... It's not someone else who wants my father to turn over, but his own family. If my father knows it under the spring, he will be unable to rest in peace!"

Cheng Qing was excited and coughed while talking, his thin body shaking:

"Without the permission of the imperial envoy Zhang, how could we orphans and widows transport our father's coffin back to Nanyi?"

Cheng Zhishu's accusations shocked the neighbors.

Cheng Qing's defense was quite organized.

One is Cheng Zhiyuan's half-brother and the other is Cheng Zhiyuan's own son. Who is the truth?

The neighbors were all confused.

Even the enthusiastic Mr. He didn't dare to speak casually anymore. Cheng Qing and Cheng Zhishu, the two uncles and nephews, were in a stalemate. Someone called out "Master Cheng Wu has arrived", and the crowd immediately separated a path.

Of course, the Cheng family has to be solved by the Cheng family. Master Cheng Wu is the patriarch of Nanyi Cheng's clan, so it is best for him to handle it!

An elder with a goatee came. He was powerful but not rude. Although his beard was half white, his face was still rosy and looked in good spirits.

This person is Cheng Qing's short-lived grandfather, the same generation as Mr. Cheng Wu, the eldest son of the fifth house, the eldest son of the Cheng family of Nanyi, and the general affairs of the Cheng family of Nanyi.

The clan leader was not granted by the imperial court, but was more powerful than officials within the family. It is hard to imagine the power of ancient clans without personal experience in modern people.

If Cheng Qing had not had the memory of the original girl, she would not have taken Master Cheng Wu seriously.

It is precisely because she understands the power of Master Cheng Wu in the Cheng family in Nanyi that Cheng Qing is going to have such a fight today... In fact, the person she wants to meet most is not her step-grandmother Mrs. Zhu, or her third uncle Cheng Zhishu, but the patriarch of the Cheng family in Nanyi.

"It made all the neighbors laugh. This was a matter of the Cheng clan, but it made the neighbors uneasy."

As soon as Master Cheng Wu spoke, the neighbors responded enthusiastically.

The Cheng family is the largest clan in Nanyi County, and Master Cheng Wu's status in Nanyi County is even better than that in Nanyi County.

The magistrates are often changed, but the Cheng clan has been entrenched in Nanyi for a hundred years. The newly appointed magistrate of the imperial court must visit Mr. Cheng Wu when he arrives in Nanyi County.

Of course, this kind of Master Cheng Wu, who has a unique position in Nanyi, is very difficult to fool.

The reason why the second room did not allow Cheng Zhiyuan's coffin to be introduced was not as high-sounding as Cheng Zhishu said.

However, Cheng Qing, who seems to be thin, is not very old, but he is quite successful.

Mr. Cheng Wu knew exactly what the two sides had to do.

He ignored Cheng Zhishu, but looked at Cheng Qing.

A little man with a pale face and thin body, very inconspicuous face.

Cheng Qing stepped forward to salute, and Liu also brought his daughters forward to salute. Master Cheng Wu nodded:
Chapter completed!
