Master Jin gestured to Tao Mo to knock on the gavel.
Tao Mo picked it up and knocked it hard, "Liu Bao, if you don't tell the truth, then I will have no choice but to..."
Seeing him stop, Master Jin hurriedly mouthed a reminder: use torture.
Tao Mo glanced at him, but shook his head and said, "I can only retract the previous judgment of Yang Tianyuan handing over the dowry, and don't care about your housework anymore."
As soon as this remark came out, Yang Liushi, Liu Bao and Zou Qiong all turned pale with shock, and said in unison: "It is absolutely impossible!"
Tao Mo said: "I am the parental official of Tanyang County, but I am not a puppet in your hands. If you are reasonable, I will naturally help you. If you are hiding something and want to use my hands for personal gain, I will never let you Success. How exactly, you guys think about it.”
The hall suddenly fell silent.
Yang Liushi and the others looked at me and I looked at you, exchanging various glances.
Zou Qiong suddenly whispered: "My lord, I am willing to take my mother back."
The corner of Yang Liu's mouth twitched, as if she was very reluctant, but she didn't say anything.
Tao Mo shook his head and said, "Liu Bao hasn't explained what he meant just now."
Liu Baodao: "The villain just made a slip of the tongue for a moment, there is no..."
"Since you guys don't want to tell the truth, I can only retract the previous judgment." Tao Mo picked up the gavel and was about to take a picture, when he saw a familiar face among the crowd watching outside the hall, and couldn't help but look at Master Jin. beckoning.
Master Jin said: "Boss?"
"Do you think that person is Yang Tianyuan?" Tao Mo said.
Master Jin looked at it for a long time, and said with a wry smile: "My lord, I am old and my eyesight is dim, how can I see clearly? If Master wants to confirm, it is not difficult, just pass him to the court."
Tao Mo patted the startled wood and said, "It is said that Yang Tianyuan will go to the hall."
That person was indeed Yang Tianyuan. He came here specially when he heard that the case would be re-tried, and later he heard Tao Mo say that the dowry judgment would be annulled, he was overjoyed, and naturally he went up to the court and knelt down in joy.
"Now that the four of you are here, you might as well make it clear if you have something to say. If you don't say it, I won't force you. It's just that the previous sentence has to be invalidated." After Tao Mo finished speaking, he quietly waited for them to make a decision.
Liu Baoyi gritted his teeth and said: "My lord, actually asking for the dowry was the idea of my mother-in-law. She was afraid that Yang Tianyuan would take the dowry and marry another concubine, so she instigated us to act with her and sue. She also said that if the matter comes true, Ask us to share half of the dowry with her."
Yang Liu's body trembled, and she fell to the ground and dared not speak.
Yang Tianyuan was furious and couldn't help cursing: "Bitch!"
Tao Mo patted the gavel and said, "Don't hurt anyone!"
Yang Tianyuan suppressed his anger, but couldn't help it and said: "My lord, it's not that the villain is greedy for money and lust. The villain really has some unavoidable reasons for doing this. The Liu family has married into my Yang family for more than ten years and has nothing to do. I have worked hard After all, the adopted daughter belongs to someone else's family. Since she married into Liu Bao's family, she has never spoken to me again. My lord, tell me, why don't I plan for my future? Could it be that I deserved to be childless after marrying her? Is it the end of the day?"
Tao Mo hesitated, "This..."
Seeing that Tao Mo was wavering, Liu Bao hurriedly said, "My lord, don't be fooled by him. The dowry is originally the property of the Zou family, and if he refuses to return it, he will steal it by force."
Yang Liu also cried: "My lord, since the women married into Yang's family, they have always abided by women's ways. It may not be the women's fault that they have nothing to do."
Yang Tianyuan became more angry, "Bitch, what are you talking about?!"
Seeing them making a fuss, Tao Mo felt his headache was about to split, he shot the gavel three times in succession and said, "Silence!"
Yang Tianyuan and the others stopped talking.
Tao Mo looked at Master Jin.
Master Jin also looked embarrassed.
In the hall, Gu Xiaojia waved at him.
Tao Mo's eyes lit up, he coughed dryly and said, "I'll leave first, you guys wait."
"Master..." Master Jin wanted to say that he could leave the hall temporarily, but Tao Mo had already disappeared, so he could only laugh dryly at the four people who were still kneeling there.
In the back hall, Tao Mo asked impatiently, "But what is Xianzhi's best way to solve the case?"
Gu Xiaojia shook his head and said, "No. The young master said that there will be braised pork that you like to eat tonight, so I want you to go home early."
"Ah?" Tao Mo was stunned.
Gu Xiaojia said: "When will Young Madam decide to come back?"
Tao Mo thought for a while and said, "Let's judge the case first."
Gu Xiaojia said: "Understood, I will go report to Young Master."
Seeing Gu Xiaojia turn his head and run away, Tao Mo couldn't help calling him back again. He looked at Gu Xiaojia and looked at himself suspiciously, and said shyly, "Xianzhi really didn't say anything else?"
Gu Xiaojia said solemnly: "Young Madam, if you want to listen to love stories, you should ask Young Master in person. Young Master never asks me to pass such words."
"No, it's not." Tao Mo blushed even more, and waved: "It's all right. You can go."
Gu Xiaojia burst out laughing, took out a piece of paper from his bosom, and put his hands in his hands, "Although you don't ask me to pass such a message, you can ask me to pass this kind of letter."
The blush on Tao Mo's face spread all the way to his ears, and he spread the letter beside him and said, "Don't talk nonsense."
The letter was really not a love story, it only had four words: Give what you want.
Give it what it wants
Tao Mo returned to the courtroom, still thinking about these words.
Master Jin hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "What did Mr. Gu say?"
Tao Mo showed him the paper.
Master Jin pondered: "Liu Bao and Zou Qiong are asking for a dowry."
Tao Mo nodded.
Master Jin said: "Yang Tianyuan is old enough to depend on him, and someone will take care of him when he dies. But Yang Liu's..."
Tao Mo suddenly said in a low voice: "Actually, Yang Liu's request is no different from Yang Tianyuan's."
Master Jin turned to look at him, but saw a smile slowly appear on his face, "I know how to judge."
Tao Mo sat upright and said, "Listen to the judgment."
The four leaned over to wash their bodies, and the tension in their hearts could be seen from their stiff bodies.
"The dowry was originally a property of the Zou family, and it should belong to Zou Qiong." Tao Mo said, "Yang Tianyuan and Yang Liu's family were originally husband and wife. The so-called one-night couple and hundred-day grace, how can your husband and wife who have been married for more than ten years hurt their harmony because of these extraneous things?" ? This official ordered you to reconcile and not to cause any further incidents."
Yang Tianyuan moved his body, seemingly dissatisfied.
"Also," Tao Mo continued, "it is the duty of a child to take care of parents. Even though Yang Tianyuan is not Zou Qiong's biological father, his stepfather is also a father, not to mention the kindness of nurturing. From now on, you will have to pay 30% of your monthly income to Yang Tianyuan Yangliu's and his wife took care of the two elders to support them for the rest of their lives, in order to fulfill their filial piety."
Liu Bao and Zou Qiong stood up in a hurry, and when they wanted to say something, Tao Mo slapped the gavel suddenly, and shouted, "Back the hall!"
After getting off the hall, Tao Mo hurriedly changed his clothes and rushed to Gu's residence.
At this time, it was time to light the lanterns, and large lanterns were hung inside and outside the Gu residence to illuminate the road.
Tao Mo trotted all the way to the hall, and saw Gu She sitting behind a table full of delicious food, with a neither salty nor dull expression. There was a sudden shock in his heart, he took a breath outside before going in. "I can smell braised pork from a long way away, it's really delicious!" He said, looking at Gu She's face.
Gu She raised her eyebrows and said, "Oh? Very fragrant?"
Tao Mo nodded and said, "Xiangxiangxiang..." He walked to the table, his smile froze suddenly, because there was no braised pork on the table.
Gu Xiaojia couldn't help laughing beside him.
Tao Mo scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "It smelled wrong, it turned out to be braised tofu."
A slight smile finally appeared on the corner of Gu She's mouth, "Sit down and eat."
"Yes." Tao Mo heaved a sigh of relief, picked up his chopsticks and started to gobble it up. He has been tossing and tossing again and again today, but he is really hungry.
Gu She held several chopsticks for him. He doesn't care what it is, he takes it all.
After dinner, it is customary to play chess. But it was rare that Gu She didn't ask Gu Xiaojia to set up the chessboard, but took Tao Mo back to the room to take a bath.
After taking a bath, Gu She lay on his side on the bed and hooked his fingers at him.
Tao Mo's heart was pounding. Even after being married for several days, facing such Gu She, he still couldn't bear the dry mouth. He sat on the bed, lay down slowly, and Gu She gently covered his body.
In fact, neither Gu She nor he had much experience in this matter, and it was just a normal gesture to do it, but every time Tao Mo felt that the taste was so beautiful that it was hard to describe. Therefore, although my back hurts every time after the incident, I can't help but look forward to the next time.
This time is no exception.
Afterwards, Tao Mo reluctantly leaned on Gu She's chest.
Gu She suddenly said: "This matter should not be greedy. You are a man, so you are different from a woman. You and I will have a long life, it is better to have a long stream."
Tao Mo was taken aback for a moment, and then he heard the smile in his words, he was embarrassed, shy and touched, he couldn't help but raised his head and stretched his neck tentatively to kiss his chin. He didn't wear an inch of hair on his body, and the spring in his eyes didn't fade away. In Gu She's eyes, such a posture was tantamount to a shy and timid invitation.
Gu She's eyes darkened, he raised his hand to press his shoulder, pressed him under him again, and said with a low laugh: "It's okay to indulge once in a while."
The spring spirit was strong inside the tent, when he heard a rush of footsteps outside, Hao Guozi shouted outside: "Old Tao is back!"
