Shen Tang didn't look at the beggar's reaction.
He said to himself: "However, I have a few conditions..."
The beggar responded subconsciously: "Mr. Shen, please speak."
After saying this, she herself was stunned for a moment.
There was a hint of annoyance in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows.
She seemed to be complaining that she was too eager and heartless, and would leave a bad impression on Shen Tang - after all, in the eyes of the world, the grudges of the previous generation are the previous generation, and as a granddaughter, she is related to the old couple by blood, so she should not be so rebellious.
Seeing how impatient I am, others might feel disgusted and think that this woman is the reincarnation of an ungrateful person.
Even the clerk who had been taking care of her for several days revealed some implicit disapproval, and there was even a hint of disappointment in his eyes.
Surprisingly, there was no trace of condemnation in Shen Jun's expression.
Shen Tang said: "You write the petition."
The beggar didn't understand what he meant, but nodded: "Of course, it's just that I have limited knowledge and may not be able to write well..."
Her enlightenment was all taught by her mother.
It is limited to being able to read, write and understand some principles.
As for literary talent, she had none. She had deliberately inquired about how to write a petition. She had always had a wish in her heart - to overturn the verdict, redress the grievances, and clear her mother's name - but her hands were severely frostbitten, and her handwriting was not beautiful.
Shen Tang added: "You beat the drum and cry out for justice."
The beggar was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then he understood a little.
Shen Tang continued: "You are the one who will sue."
The beggar did not answer.
Shen Tang looked at the pitiful appearance of the beggar and softened his heart for a moment: "Are you sure you want to do this? As the granddaughter of the old couple, if you write the petition and beat the drum to appeal, if the matter is true, the lightest punishment they will receive is five punishments!"
What is the "Five Punishments"
Everyone in Fugu City knew about it.
During the High Platform Trial, there were too many ready-made examples of the seven local bosses being subjected to the "Five Punishments", which in layman's terms was equivalent to being cut into pieces.
The beggar has some culture and knows better.
so-
Did she really want to personally send her blood relatives to their deaths? Would she be so unfilial and be despised by others
At this time, the clerk who had been silent all this time spoke softly: "... Mr. Shen, since the old couple's crime is proven, why should we just send someone to arrest them? Why do we need to let this young lady file a complaint?"
The petty official sympathized with the plight of the widow beggar and her daughter, but it was really unacceptable that a granddaughter would kill her own grandparents.
How can beggars survive in the world from now on
Shen Tang said: "It has a different meaning."
The clerk admired Mr. Shen very much, but he had some disagreements on this matter and could not understand Shen Tang's decision - why did he force an orphan girl like this? Obviously, this matter could be resolved in a more gentle way.
He said, "I'm sorry I cannot agree with this."
Shen Tang said: "Because you look at it from a secular perspective, you naturally cannot understand it. But if you look at it from the perspective of that lady, this will make her truly relieved. Older men buy and sell women not just to have a woman to warm their bed..."
At the word, she sneered.
The clerk couldn't get her joke.
Shen Tang restrained his smile.
Regain your normal calm and rationality.
"… It's not just for someone to take care of them, to clothe them and to feed them, but their fundamental purpose is to use women's bellies to give birth to their own bloodline offspring. They believe that offspring belong to 'their own people', and women are outsiders. Therefore, no matter how much women resist, they are just 'disobedient'. At most, they will be angry and embarrassed instead of reflecting on themselves and being afraid, because this disobedient person can be replaced by a human trafficker for an obedient one. Only by letting the 'own people' they believe in stand up can there be a deterrent effect…"
"But, but..."
The clerk couldn't say anything to refute after talking for a long time. It's not that he couldn't refute, but he couldn't say anything.
"But there are too few people who have this kind of courage." Shen Tang looked quite regretful and smiled, "Because even the descendants often think that this is a family matter, and how can family disgrace be made public? Compared with a 'mother' who was bought with money, a 'father', 'grandfather' and 'grandmother' who were bought with money are more worthy of being close to. There is no need to hesitate when it comes to losing one relative or losing three relatives. Even if there is a little bit of conscience, they will use the secular world to excuse themselves... So, I think that lady is extremely brave."
His family fell into poverty, but he was sold into the mountains to be shared by his father, brothers and his wife refused to accept her fate. She was often beaten, scolded and humiliated, but she still seized the opportunity to abort the unlucky child from her father. As a weak person, she did her best to resist the reality of bad luck.
If she hadn't been confused and being watched, she probably wouldn't have had that son and the beggar in front of her. After learning that her parents had passed away, the lady should have accepted her fate and thought it would be good to raise her two children in peace, but Diao's incident happened.
There was only one choice before her -
She could continue to accept her fate, save her son, and let her "parents-in-law" sell her and her daughter as prostitutes. She was already so rotten, and it didn't matter if she continued to rot. But she just refused to do what others wanted.
Took another path that the world cannot understand.
As the smallest ant in this world, prove your innocence in the most powerless way, or it can be said to be the last resistance.
The clerk muttered: "But killing the son for the mother..."
Shen Tang: "Did she volunteer to be a mother?"
The clerk choked and said, "Although it is not voluntary, I can—"
Shen Tang smiled without any emotion: "But it's already done, should we accept it? This is what the traders want. The bought woman will behave well after giving birth to a child, so if you want to keep a woman, you just need to let her give birth to a child."
The clerk said: "But since she is her mother, she is also her blood relative. How could she have the heart to do this..."
Shen Tang sighed, "A mother? Oh, how can the world regard her as a person? If she is not even a person, how can she be a mother? As for why she could do this, the reasons are probably very complicated - because her memory was restored, she found that the child's grandfather and grandmother were her enemies, and she hated them so much that she couldn't accept it; because the situation was pressing, and if she didn't prove her innocence, she and her daughter would have to become prostitutes; and because, if this son lived to grow up, the next woman would follow in her footsteps... I think there should be many women in that village with similar experiences, and they also have children with the same life experience. She has seen the predetermined future from the children passed down from generation to generation..."
The clerk's expression changed slightly when he heard this.
The attitude is no longer the same as before.
Shen Tang looked compassionate, "She may have another concern—the child she brought into the world, and she will send him away personally. She will feel more at ease if the mother and child are reunited in the underworld and she takes care of and raises them personally, rather than keeping them in the world. No one knows what the world after death is like... In today's world, living is a tribulation."
Snap!
Snap!
Tears rolled down the beggar's eyes.
The beggar cried in embarrassment, "So, my mother has abandoned me?"
One word still cannot relieve the problem.
She said hysterically: "She really left me!"
That’s why he looked like that when we last met!
Shen Tang looked at her tears that could not be stopped, and his head could not stop hurting. He said helplessly: "That's just my guess."
But the beggar felt that what Mr. Shen said was about 80% to 90% right. A'niang was a well-educated and well-mannered girl from a wealthy family. She had been taught to be gentle, respectful, frugal and modest since childhood. No matter how hard her life was, she would get up early every day and dress herself meticulously.
She didn't fit in with that numb and dirty village.
Those vulgar women cursed her as "foxy".
When the "grandfathers and grandmothers" are in a bad mood, they will make indirect accusations.
She and her brother were too young to know it at first, they just thought their mother was really shameful, and every move she made carried what others called "evil spirit".
Even when he got angry with his mother, she didn't get angry. She just said: Please yourself, not others. You are still young and don't understand.
After wandering for many years, she still didn't understand that the person who understood A Niang the best was Shen Jun, whom she had never met.
The beggar cried so hard that he almost fainted.
Shen Tang looked at her like this and decided not to force her anymore.
Just send someone to capture that old couple and kill them.
Unexpectedly, the beggar stopped her.
He sobbed, "I have never been unwilling to clear my mother's name. This is the reason why I have survived until now. But I dare to ask for the lives of my father and brothers who bullied my mother before!"
The beggar took a deep breath to suppress his surging emotions, and said word by word: "I want to see them die without a burial place!"
Shen Tang began to look at this beggar with new eyes.
To sue the old man and the old woman, you not only have to get over the hurdle in your heart, but you also have to have the courage to face the endless insults and misunderstandings from the world.
No one would understand her choice.
Perhaps the stigma will follow her throughout her life.
Shen Tang said: "You are as brave as your mother."
Only those who refuse to accept their fate can change their destiny.
It is really rare.
She said, "Not many people can read nowadays. Since you know a few words, why don't you stay in the government office and help out?"
The beggar's eyes suddenly lit up.
In a dazed tone: "Can I?"
Shen Tang said: "Of course you can."
She admired the courage of this beggar who would save people to the end and send Buddha to the west. Besides, Shen Tang was not a pure person at heart. As long as she thought it was right and in line with her code of conduct, she would do it.
As for whether the secular world recognizes it or not
Who cares!
Just do it!
Shen Tang found someone to arrest the man.
The hospital is short of manpower, and almost everyone is so busy that they are running around. Even Kang Shi, who disdains the involution in the workplace, hesitates again and again and starts to work overtime like Shen Tang. However, he still can't compete with Shen Tang, the ultimate king of involution.
He only summoned out an incarnation of literary energy, which lasted for an hour before forcibly taking it back. His work efficiency was much faster than before.
As work efficiency improves, you will naturally feel more “idle”.
So he was drafted into the army.
When Kang Shi suddenly learned of the beggar's plight, he felt quite sympathetic.
He was also mentally prepared for these evil deeds and bad habits. In fact, he didn't even need to go out and ask around. He could tell with his toes that there were definitely a lot of them. Poor and bad places breed bad people. There is nothing bad people can't do, except what you can't imagine.
This matter will sooner or later come before Shen Tang's case.
It's just a matter of time.
It’s just that some people will care, while others will choose to turn a blind eye—because those unruly people will only behave themselves if they have wives, and if they don’t give them wives to carry on the family line, they will make trouble. Anyway, the matter is done, so why not whitewash it
What hasn’t happened yet
Well, of course we have to try to prevent it.
The old official persuaded Shen Tang in this tactful way.
"Mr. Shen, there have been precedents of heavy punishment for kidnapping people since ancient times, but it has been repeatedly banned and cannot be eliminated in a day or two. Your foundation is not stable yet, so why not take it step by step? If you want to die with honor, you can't live in disgrace... Hey, why bother?"
They actually know all these things.
Such things are common in villages all over Heyin.
But we can’t control it.
First, the government was in a state of decline, and they, the petty officials, had no ability to manage it; second, the area of Heyin was small, and if they caught two people and investigated their ancestors, they could find out some connections, so it was difficult for them to manage it; third...
Shen Tang raised his hand to signal him to stop.
Just said one sentence -
"I, Shen Youli, have built a Jingguan from Sibao to Fugu on a high platform in the city with the corpses of seven families. Why should I be afraid of the scoundrels?"
Not to mention that they were just a group of unruly people, even if these unruly people had the same military force as Gong Xichou, she would not show any mercy.
Furthermore,
She came to govern Heyin County, not to supply nutrients to these insects and create a comfortable breeding ground for them.
As for convincing people with reason...
The truth is always meant to be told to people.
Because animals can't understand.
On the way.
Seeing the excitement and joy that the beggar had on his face, Kang Shi thought to himself, "What a strange man!" and took the initiative to start a conversation.
"Miss Zhu..."
The beggar said indifferently: "My surname is not Zhu."
Kang Shi was puzzled: "But isn't that Zhujia Village?"
Zhujia Village is basically a village where people with the surname "Zhu" gather, and people with other surnames are basically women from other surnames who "married" in.
The beggar said, "I have decided to take my mother's surname."
Since the “grandfathers and grandmothers” divide “their own people” and “outsiders” by bloodline and surname, the persecution of A Niang was also to continue this surname and bloodline, and even sold her to an old widower as a wife when she was young, in order to use the money collected to continue the “incense”, then she is naturally no longer suitable to live with the surname “Zhu”. Just like A Niang, their wish must not be fulfilled!
Kang Shi asked: "What is the young lady's name?"
The beggar was dazed for a moment when he heard this.
After a long while, he said in a dry voice: "Yu."
When Mr. Kang asked her, she suddenly remembered that her mother was always referred to as "Mrs. Zhu" or "the widow of the Zhu family" by other people. No one called her by her real family name or her nickname, and even she, as a daughter, only found out by chance.
Her mother loved the poem "Yu Meiren" very much.
When the beggar was young, she held him in her arms and taught him to write stroke by stroke.
Which beauty is Yu Meiren? Is she beautiful
No, Yu Meiren is a song from a teaching studio, and later became the name of a tune. It is not a person, let alone a beauty. But - I'll tell you a secret, it is my mother's maiden name.
The beggar was surprised: My mother is a beauty
The widow pretended to hold her heart and frown, coaxing her innocent daughter, saying: "Isn't my mother beautiful? Since she is a beauty and is called a beauty, why not?"
The beggar was in deep thought, seeming a little ashamed: My daughter is still young, should I call her little beauty now
The widow was amused: What will you be called when you grow up
Big beauty.
The beggar was amused by his own memories.
"My surname is Yu, and my given name is Zi."
She seemed to be speaking to Kang Shi, or to herself, or perhaps to someone who was no longer around.
He added: "The evil purple took away Zhu's purple!"
After hearing the meaning of this name, Kang Shi frowned.
This young lady...
Big sex!
