Chapter 431 I want the old lady to plead guilty and pay for her crime
"Okay! Tomorrow morning, follow me to the Dali Temple to file a complaint." Ye Zhenghai gritted his teeth, "I want the old lady to plead guilty and pay for her murder with her life."
"Father! This is absolutely unacceptable."
Du Wanwan's words surprised Ye Zhenghai: "Why?"
Chen Xiangxiu quickly helped Du Wanwan up: "Wanwan! Sit down and talk. Zhongyuan, you also stand up. If you have anything to say, let's discuss it properly."
Ye Tingfeng helped Du Wanwan up, asked her to sit down, and motioned for her to state the reasons for her objection.
As soon as he came back, Wanwan told him about the old lady's matter, gave him the evidence she had found, and asked him to find witnesses.
I didn't expect his people to act so quickly. They had all the witnesses in their hands in just a few days. It's really rare.
"Father! That's right. Even though the old lady has all sorts of faults, she still gave birth to a third uncle for the Ye family. The couple really did their best for us.
Before punishing the old lady, I hope you can discuss it with Uncle San, because he is also his mother. "
After his daughter-in-law mentioned this, Chen Xiangxiu also felt that it was right: "Master! Wanwan is right, the third brother and his wife really did their best for us.
When we first came to the capital, my third brother asked his wife to send us 150 taels of silver. If we want to sue his mother, we have to consider the third brother's face."
“This…” Ye Zhenghai looked at Chen Xiangxiu, then at Du Wanwan, and then at Ye Tingxiao, “According to what you said, my mother, your grandmother died in vain?”
"Father! We still need to think about this matter carefully." Ye Tingxiao stood up to comfort Ye Zhenghai, "The old lady's matter must be dealt with. We don't have to go to the Dali Temple, we can go to the Ye Family Ancestral Hall.
The old lady has been strong all her life. If the young and old members of the Ye family knew her vicious face, it would be more painful than killing her.
The purpose of making this incident known is not only to avenge grandma, but also to prevent the old lady from coming to the Duke of Anguo's mansion to make trouble and force you to acknowledge his identity."
After hearing what his son said, Ye Zhenghai suddenly became enlightened.
By the way, with the old lady's frail face, she would definitely come to his house to make trouble when she learned that he was awarded the title of Duke of Anguo. Outsiders who didn't know the truth would inevitably say that he was heartless and treated his stepmother harshly.
In the eyes of outsiders, the old lady was kind-hearted and treated her stepson as her own. If she was really sued in the Dali Temple, even if she was right, she would be criticized by many people.
It would be better to go to the ancestral hall to solve the problem, and use this matter to shut up the old lady so that she can't come to her house to make trouble. It's even more impossible for her to recognize her as her mother and take her into the house.
Chen Xiangxiu saw that Ye Zhenghai was silent, and felt a little anxious: "Master! The old lady has many tricks. If she makes a fuss, it will be very troublesome. If Wanwan hadn't been there to give me advice last time, I really couldn't beat her.
If she comes to our house every other day to make trouble, we really can't stand it. If we take her in to be an old lady, I will feel sick just looking at her.
She is not my mother-in-law at all, but the murderer who killed my mother-in-law. Why should I respect her? "
"I know, Xiu'er! Just listen to Zhongyuan! Go find Lao San tomorrow morning and tell him about this and see what his attitude is."
Ye Tingxiao said hesitantly: "I have already informed Third Uncle. As soon as he knows that father is back, he will definitely come to our house to discuss it."
Du Wanwan followed up and said, "Third Uncle runs a private school in the west of the city. He must have known about your return. Have a good rest tonight and settle this matter tomorrow.
We can't delay any longer. The old lady is cunning by nature. The longer we delay, the more disadvantageous it will be for us.
It would be best to send someone to call the old lady's family to be present, so that they can avoid accusing you of abusing your power to oppress others."
"Okay! Leave this matter to your uncle." Ye Zhenghai looked worried. "That was caused by his own mother, so he must solve it. If the Cheng family is unwilling, we can file a lawsuit."
"Yes! We have done our best to use courtesy before force. You can't blame us for this."
Ye Tingxiao took Du Wanwan to pay their respects to their parents and then left.
Chen Xiangxiu looked at the stack of papers and picked them up to examine them carefully: "Wan Wan is really resourceful. When did she collect all these? I actually had no idea about it."
Ye Zhenghai was not surprised at all: "My daughter-in-law is very capable. She has the evidence against the King of Qi, let alone the old lady."
For some things, he just mentions them without explaining them clearly.
Others couldn't see it, but he couldn't see it after living for most of his life. The two crows beside his daughter-in-law were very smart. They could understand everything his daughter-in-law said and communicate with her without any obstacles.
Besides, are falcons so easy to train? She actually trained seven of them. Is that something that ordinary people can do?
"That's right, I don't know where Wanwan found it from."
Chen Xiangxiu read the note, put it down, and waited for Ye Zhenghai to go to bed. He still had to settle accounts with the old lady tomorrow, so he had to get a good night's sleep tonight.
The next morning, before Chen Xiangxiu got up, Ye Zhengqiu and Liang arrived.
The two men stood at the gate of the courtyard and did not dare to knock on the door to come in.
They all knew what Ye Tingxiao meant. The old lady was really inhumane and things that needed to be sorted out really needed to be sorted out.
The eldest brother's mother was killed by his mother, so the eldest brother was born without a mother. This is a painful thing for anyone, and no one can get over it easily.
He would also feel unhappy if his mother was murdered.
The hatred for killing one’s mother is irreconcilable.
If the case was taken to the Dali Temple, his sons and daughters would be too ashamed to face people, and he would not be able to run his private school.
With such a vicious elder at home, who would be willing to associate with them?
If the problem can be solved at home, try to solve it at home.
Hearing someone in the yard, Ye Zhengqiu knocked on the gate, and Ye Yilai opened the door for him.
Ye Zhengqiu asked him: "Ye Yi! Is my eldest brother up?"
"I'm up. I'm practicing in the backyard."
Ye Yi led Ye Zhengqiu in. Chen Xiangxiu heard the voices in the kitchen and hurried out to ask them to sit down.
"Third brother! Third brother's wife! You are here! Please sit down!"
"Sister-in-law! Is my brother okay?" Ye Zhengqiu asked worriedly, "Is he not angry after hearing about that?"
Liang glanced at her master and felt that his question was unreasonable.
"Master! Anyone who knows about this will be angry. You'd better not ask. She is my eldest brother's biological mother."
Ye Zhengqiu was stunned, feeling that his question was a bit redundant: "Sister-in-law! I'm sorry! I'm not good at speaking. My mother's behavior is really too much, and I, as a son, am ashamed.
But I had no choice. She wanted to do this, but she kept it a secret from me and only discussed it with my second brother. I had no idea at all."
Chen Xiangxiu nodded: "Your eldest brother and I can understand, after all, the Marquis' Mansion used to be headed by the second son and his wife, and you two really can't interfere.
But the old lady was too vicious when she was young. Your eldest brother wanted to file a lawsuit with the Dali Temple, but was persuaded by Zhongyuan and his wife.
Family disgrace should not be made public, and filing a lawsuit is not a glorious thing. Since ancient times, killing someone means paying with one's life. This time, your eldest brother is really angry."
