The old lady Liu Shi was shouting vigorously, but Lei Zhen, a half-year-old boy, scolded her so that her voice didn't stop, and she was still crying and grabbing the ground.
At this moment, a middle-aged man who came in with the Liu family stood up, looked at the two brothers of the Lei family, and said with an air, "We are from the Liu family, this is my mother and also the Lei family. The sister of Mrs. Tai."
I thought that the two brothers of the Lei family would come to call him uncle, but I didn't want Lei Zhen to look at them suspiciously, but Lei Ting frowned and thought about it before saying softly: "I sent someone back a few years ago. I have inquired, the Liu family's great-grandmother's one is no longer available."
The middle-aged man didn't say anything yet, but the old woman who was crying turned her head and stared, "Who said that the Liu family is gone! I am the daughter of the Liu family who married, and now my second son follows my surname. Liu, kowtow before the ancestral tablet of the Liu family, he will inherit the incense of the Liu family in the future."
Lei Ting looked at them, his frowning brows still did not relax, obviously he didn't quite believe their words.
At this time, the powerful-looking middle-aged woman who had been supporting Mrs. Liu said loudly, "Mother, don't tell them if you have any of this. We are not here to recognize relatives. , but to support my aunt. Her old death is not clear, isn't the Lei family just bullying our Liu family? Today we want them to see if there is no one in our Liu family! You can't die like this!"
As soon as the woman's words came out, there was an uproar among the people watching the lively.
Although there are rumors about the cause of Mrs. Lei's death outside. However, it was different from what was said by an outsider who was said to be Mrs. Lei Tai.
Someone said: "This lady, you can't talk nonsense. Do you have any evidence?"
The woman did not have stage fright when she heard the words, but became more assertive: "It's not easy to get evidence? Our Liu family has already planned to report to the official. When the time comes, let the official send someone to check my aunt's body, what's wrong with it? understandable?"
As soon as this statement came out, there was another uproar.
Lei Zhen said angrily: "No! My grandmother is no longer here, so it should be safe to go to the ground. How can you bully her like this."
The middle-aged woman sneered and confronted each other: "Let's do it? I'm afraid your Lei family is guilty of being a thief, right?"
At this time, the field was already chaotic, and the onlookers changed from the previous whispers to open discussions. Some people say that the Liu family's blood spewed out of nowhere, and some people said that there was something wrong with the Lei family, maybe the sudden death of Mrs. Lei Tai was really related to the people of the Lei family, and some people stood and watched. Lively without talking indiscriminately.
As a result, the entire mourning hall was lively.
Seeing that the scene was about to be chaotic, Lei Ting raised his hand and waved to signal everyone to be quiet. Although he was young, he really had the power of Lei's family when he had a straight face, and everyone wanted to know what Lei Ting wanted to say at this moment. What, so the scene really quieted down.
"You want to report to the officer?"
There was silence in the field, and everyone looked at the people from the Liu family.
This time, a total of more than a dozen people came to the Liu family, including men and women, old and young. But everyone understood that the protagonists should be the old lady Liu, who is said to be the sister of Mrs. Lei Tai, and the middle-aged man and woman who spoke.
As soon as Mrs. Liu came in, she just started crying. She must have been in poor health. After saying a few words before, she stood there panting and leaned against another woman to support her. The middle-aged man and middle-aged woman who spoke should be her son and daughter-in-law.
When Lei Ting asked this question, it was a middle-aged man who came out to answer him: "Yes, we want to report to the officials! I sue you Lei's family for killing my aunt. We want to bury someone before our family members arrive. Come on. A corpse and a trace. Fortunately, God has an eye, I heard that the mountain road collapsed and the road was blocked."
Lei Zhen was about to say something, but was stopped by Lei Ting, he said coldly: "What identity do you want to report to the official?"
The middle-aged man sneered: "Of course it is Mrs. Lei Tai's maiden family. Didn't you say that, my mother is Mrs. Lei Tai's sister."
Lei Ting was unmoved: "Sorry, since the Lei family came to Yanbei, more people came to recognize relatives. I haven't seen you."
The middle-aged man was not in a hurry when he heard the words, as if he had long expected that their identities would be suspected, he snorted lightly, took out a piece of paper from his sleeve pocket, and handed it to Shi Shiran In front of Lei Ting: "See clearly, this is a letter from the head of the Liu family. It clearly states who we are. It also has the family seal and the private seals of several old uncles of the Liu family. We are the Liu family. Mrs. Liu Tai is my sixth aunt, if you have any questions, just go back to the clan and ask. Just don’t blame others for laughing at you.”
The steward behind Lei Ting, Liu Gui, hurriedly stepped forward and took the paper from the middle-aged man, unfolded it, and handed it to Lei Ting. Lei Ting took a closer look and his face finally looked better: "It turns out that he is really from the Liu family."
The people from the Liu family suddenly straightened their waists.
Although the Liu family was the leading family in Jiangnan a few decades ago, it has been in decline for a long time after all.
Lei Ting glanced somewhere in the crowd, and secretly winked at his own people.
Then I heard someone say: "Oh, why is someone from the Liu family coming to recognize the relatives? Didn't someone say that Mrs. Lei Tai's background was not? It was said that Mrs. Lei Tai was not from the Liu family's direct line, but was just a concubine. It's just an orphan who went to the Liu family with unknown origin. Some people even said that Mrs. Lei Tai was a fake, and even the two masters of the Lei family were wild breeds of unknown origin."
Although this person seems to be discussing with others, his voice is really not small, and many people present heard it.
Lei Zhen was trembling with anger, and was about to order people to drive out those who talked nonsense again. Lei Ting's face was unmoved, as if he only heard someone fart in the public, but he was always paying attention to the movements of the Liu family.
Therefore, he did not ignore that the middle-aged man and the middle-aged woman winked at this time.
In fact, at this time, both husband and wife were thinking about what they heard before entering Lei's house.
They had set out from their hometown before Mrs. Lei Tai died, when the order was given to them to expose Mrs. Lei Tai's identity.
