Wei A'er saw that Zhang Fei was dressed like a scholar, with delicate features and a kind face, and seemed to have no ill intentions. Most importantly, the two brothers had nothing to gain, so he let down his guard a little and invited Zhang Fei to sit down in the house.
Wei Ada didn't seem to have recovered, or perhaps he was a little shy. He didn't go into the house, but sat in the yard, but glanced into the house from time to time.
"Ten acres of land?"
Zhang Fei asked in confusion, "You said that they only need ten acres of your land, and then they are willing to marry Ayun to your eldest brother?"
Wei Er nodded and said, "Yes."
Zhang Fei frowned and said, "I heard that Ayun is a famous beauty in the area. If you only want ten acres of land, I believe many people in the area will be willing to give, and some may even be willing to give more land."
Wei Er said: "Brother Zhang San, you don't know that the ten acres of land in my family just divide their land in half, and also occupy the source of the canal. If their family can get my ten acres of land, they can open a new canal to irrigate all their land.
So they wanted to buy our ten acres of land a long time ago, but those ten acres of land were inherited from our ancestors, and we brothers had never agreed until... until they proposed this marriage, we agreed, but we never expected that it would lead to such a disaster. "
"I see."
Zhang Fei seemed to be thinking about something, and then asked, "Didn't their family say anything else? For example, whether Ayun was willing to marry your eldest brother."
Wei Er thought for a moment and said, "That's not what he said. In matters of marriage, one must obey the parents' orders. Ah Yun's parents are both dead, and this uncle is the eldest. Of course, his words count."
Zhang Fei frowned and asked, "Have they described Ayun's personality and their views on this marriage?"
Wei Er thought for a moment and said, "His uncle Fang Datian did say that their daughter Ayun is pretty, gentle, virtuous, and kind-hearted. But he didn't say anything about Ayun's opinion on this marriage."
Zhang Fei's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said, "Really? His uncle really said these words."
Wei Er nodded and said, "They did say these words. Even if they didn't say them, we would know about them. Otherwise, we brothers would not have agreed to them."
Zhang Fei asked with a smile: "Do you still think so now?"
Wei A'er immediately shook his head.
He has already committed murder, how can he be kind-hearted
"now it's right!"
Zhang Fei smiled and nodded.
Wei Er saw Zhang Feiguang asking these irrelevant questions, so he asked curiously: "Why are you asking these questions? Also, how are you going to help us?"
Zhang Fei opened his mouth slightly and suddenly said, "Can you call your eldest brother in first? There is something I need to confirm."
"OK!"
Wei A'er finally managed to call Wei A into the house.
Zhang Fei looked at Wei'a Avenue and said, "Your injuries seem to have healed?"
Wei Er said: "My brother is lucky. Except for his finger, the rest of his injuries are minor."
Zhang Fei said: "Really? Can you let me take a look?"
"ah?"
Wei Ada covered his clothes tightly.
Zhang Fei smiled and said, "We are all men, what are you afraid of?"
Wei Er said, "Brother, just take off your clothes and let Brother Zhang San see."
Wei Ada hesitated for a while, then slowly took off his clothes, his face as red as a monkey's butt.
Zhang Fei had a headache and felt confused.
After an inspection, Zhang Fei first asked Wei Ada to put on his clothes, and then asked, "Can you take me to see the ten acres of land?"
... ...
Wei Er led Zhang Fei out of the village and walked west along the path, while Wei Da just followed them silently, keeping his head down, as if he was ashamed to see people.
Zhang Fei saw this and was somewhat moved. He thought to himself, in fact, they are both miserable people!
After walking for a while, Zhang Fei followed Wei A'er to a small hill.
Wei Er pointed to the fields in the distance and said, "Look, that's my family's field, and the fields on both sides are the fields of their Fangjia Village."
Zhang Fei looked in the direction where his finger pointed. Although he had never cultivated land before, he could see clearly at a glance that the fields on both sides were irrigated by the winding river in the middle. Coincidentally, this river just passed through the Wei family's fields, perfectly avoiding the Fang family's two fields.
If the Fang family gets the Wei family's land, not only can they connect their two fields into one, but they can also dig a canal directly in the middle to benefit all their fields.
Zhang Fei suddenly asked: "How many acres of land do they have?"
Wei Er said, "Are you asking about the Fang family or that evil woman's family?"
Zhang Fei was stunned for a moment, and asked, "Does Ayun's family also have land?"
Wei A'er immediately said, "Their family still has about 20 acres of land."
Then he pointed to a place further away and said, "Look, the fields behind that willow tree belong to that evil woman."
Zhang Fei looked into the distance for a while and said, "I heard that Ayun's parents have passed away. If she marries into your family, what will happen to her land?"
Wei Er said: "Of course it belongs to the Fang family. They won't be so kind as to give the twenty acres of land to our family as a dowry."
It turned out to be a plan that killed two birds with one stone. Zhang Fei asked again: "How many acres of land does the Fang family have in total?"
Wei Er hesitated for a moment and said, "There are three brothers in the Fang family, and they now own 500 acres of land nearby."
Zhang Fei was surprised and said, "That can be considered a wealthy family!"
Wei Er curled his lips and said, "In fact, in our grandfather's generation, their family was similar to ours, except that they married their daughters off everywhere over the years and exchanged a lot of land from other farmers, and then bought some more land one after another."
It seems he is still a habitual offender. Zhang Fei nodded, and after thinking for a while, he suddenly said, "Fifty acres of land."
Wei Er was stunned for a moment and asked, "What do you mean by fifty acres of land?"
Zhang Fei said, "How do you feel about compensating you with fifty acres of land?"
Wei and A were both dumbfounded.
"Five... fifty acres?"
"Um."
Zhang Fei nodded and said, "If you think it's too little, I can still help you get more compensation, but I may not be able to get more than this."
Wei Er shook his head and said, "It's not a small amount, not a small amount. Can you... can you really help us get compensation for 50 acres of land?"
Fifty acres of land is unimaginable for ordinary farmers like them. It can feed a few more people!
Zhang Fei nodded.
Suddenly, a very small voice came from behind, "Where's my wife?"
Zhang Fei looked back and saw Wei Ada's head shrink. He immediately laughed and said, "You have 50 acres of land. Are you still worried that you can't find a wife?"
... ..
In a blink of an eye, half a month passed. During this period, Zhang Fei had been in contact with the Wei brothers and secretly investigating some people related to this case.
At the same time, he was also working hard to recover his body. In fact, his previous physical condition was simply unable to support him in fighting a complete lawsuit. He was lucky that he did not fall seriously ill.
That day, in the evening, Liu Hai came to the yamen, stretched out his arms, and asked the yamen runners on the left and right: "Has anyone filed a complaint today?"
The two yamen runners shook their heads.
Liu Hai breathed a sigh of relief. It was another day without any trouble. He then reminded them, "Now is a time of trouble. You guys have to cheer up!"
Before he finished speaking, someone shouted, "Liu Mu Ke, Liu Mu Ke."
Liu Hai thought the voice sounded familiar, so he looked in the direction of the voice and saw who it was. He immediately exclaimed, "Zhang San?"
The person who came was Zhang Fei.
Zhang Fei walked quickly to the door and panted, "Liu Muke, you haven't dismissed the officials yet, have you?"
Liu Hai wondered, "What are you doing here again?"
Zhang Fei laughed and said, "What else can you do here? Of course you are here to complain."
As he said this, he handed over the petition.
Liu Hai stared at the complaint in Zhang Fei's hand, the corners of his mouth twitching constantly. If looks could kill, Zhang Fei would have been reduced to ashes.
