Chapter 29 Brother-in-law
But the doctor said that this is normal and let him sleep more these days.
"Oh, okay."
After helping Father Xia back to the house and lying down, Mother Xia looked worried, but she didn't say anything and her eyes were red.
But at this time, Xia Yutong was completely focused on the letter and ignored the changes in her mother.
"Mom, don't touch Dad, it will hurt him. Just sit aside and call me when Dad wakes up, okay?" Xia Yutong patted her mother.
She didn't know whether Xia's mother could understand, but she believed that she would not touch Xia's father.
Rongrong was also well taken care of when she was not around.
Rongrong was completely shocked when she saw her injured father coming back.
"Big sister." She wanted to cry but didn't dare to, so she pulled her big sister's clothes.
"Rongrong, be good and stay here to watch over Daddy. Don't let Mommy touch Daddy's head. If Daddy wakes up, can you come out and call Auntie?"
Rongrong is very good and obedient, "Yes, Rongrong listens to big sister."
After leaving the room, Xia Yutong saw Xia Feng sitting in the main room.
"Brother Feng, what's going on?"
Everything was fine, why did something happen today?
Xia Feng did not hide it, he knew that Xiaotong was not an ordinary child.
So I told him what happened today.
Originally, business was conducted as usual today.
At lunch time, a group of people suddenly came into the store and ordered a lot of things as soon as they entered.
They thought it was a big customer, so they helped to bake it first.
But I didn't expect that these people didn't come here to eat, they just came to cause trouble.
"Boss, what's going on? Why is the meat burnt?"
"That's right, look at these vegetables. What's on them? They're pitch black. Can they be eaten?" As soon as the dishes were served, those people started to move.
Each sound is louder than the last.
Only after they had driven everyone out of the store did they reveal their purpose.
"I like your prescriptions. In one sentence, will you give them to me?" The leader sat on the chair like a big boss and asked the boss standing in front of him.
That is Xia's father.
How could Father Xia sell these recipes? If he wanted to sell them, he wouldn't have opened this snack bar.
"Master, you're joking. We are a small business and don't make much profit." You can see all these things, and the profit is really not that big.
It's just a matter of small profits but quick turnover.
"Oh, boss, you are quite courageous. You actually dare to refuse the county magistrate's brother-in-law. I think you don't want to live anymore." The lackey behind the brother-in-law stepped forward and shouted.
When he heard the word "county magistrate", Xia's father was indeed frightened.
You know, the people do not fight with the officials. Besides, he is the county magistrate's brother-in-law, so I dare not confront him head-on.
"Uncle, this recipe is really not a valuable thing. If you like it, you can come and eat it every day. It's free." Father Xia said flatteringly.
But are they doing this just for this bite of food?
No, people come here for the taste.
Seeing the boss being so ungrateful, the brother-in-law got angry and said, "Smash it for me."
In this way, Father Xia was injured by them.
After hearing what Xia Feng said, Xia Yutong laughed angrily.
"Our county magistrate has a brother-in-law? Ha, how shameless." Having been in the town for so long, she certainly knew some of the local people and officials thoroughly.
The county magistrate's wife doesn't have a younger brother-in-law. She has an older brother-in-law, but that older brother-in-law is a scholar and he doesn't live in Mingyuan County.
This brother-in-law, haha, I'm afraid...
Xia Yutong thinks a lot, and some things and people can also be put into action.
"Brother Feng, since they dare to smash it, we dare to sue them. If the county magistrate sides with that 'brother-in-law', then we will go straight to the provincial capital without saying anything."
She is the kind of person who can't stand being angry.
According to the information she knew, the county magistrate was not a bad official.
At least he is truly working for the people, otherwise Mingyuan County would not have developed so well.
"Is this okay?" Xia Feng was a little worried.
He is a farmer, and it is really difficult for him to deal with officials.
"Brother Feng, don't worry about this. Listen to me. You will take people to report Zhuang in a while. If the county magistrate doesn't care, then we will go to the provincial capital. I don't believe this nonsense."
Xia Yutong said angrily.
Xia Feng shook his head, "Okay, I'll listen to you."
That afternoon, Xia Feng brought the injured men to the county government office.
Directly sue the county magistrate's brother-in-law.
Outside the county government office, many people gathered.
When they learned that someone was going to sue the county magistrate's brother-in-law, they were all confused.
"Young man, are you mistaken? Our county magistrate has only one brother-in-law, and he is not even in Mingyuan County." A man who looked respectable stood up and said.
Xia Feng didn't know much about official affairs, so he shook his head after hearing this. "Our people said it themselves, he is the county magistrate's brother-in-law, there's no doubt about that."
Before there was any commotion outside, bailiffs came out and led people in.
The county magistrate was also very confused. Wasn’t his brother-in-law teaching at Mingde Academy?
How could you bully a businessman here?
However, after he was brought in, he frowned when he saw the person kneeling below with injuries all over his body.
mighty…
snap
"Who is in the hall?"
"Suing whom?"
Xia Feng was a little scared, as it was the first time he saw this formation. However, thinking of Xiaotong's words, he remained calm and directly stated his purpose and who he was reporting to.
After listening to this, the county magistrate said, "My uncle is far away in the capital. How could he come here to bully you?"
Hearing the county magistrate's denial, Xia Feng refused to do it.
He immediately told what happened at that time.
He also told the man's name, Dazhi. After hearing Xia Feng's words, the county magistrate was furious.
The legal advisor knew the county magistrate's family affairs and knew who this person was, but...
"We will discuss this matter later. Adjourn."
Send away the people outside first.
Don't air your dirty laundry in public.
Among the onlookers outside, there are quite a few smart people.
A person with the surname Jiang.
Soon everyone thought of what happened last year when the county magistrate married the young daughter of the general family as a concubine.
When the county magistrate heard the words of those who retreated, his face turned red with anger.
He hated the person kneeling in the hall even more because he had embarrassed him.
However, he is a good official.
The county magistrate comforted himself in this way.
"Go, call Jiang Dazhi over to me." Humph, it was almost time for him to be promoted, and he actually dared to cause trouble for him.
The county magistrate was angry.
The county magistrate's backyard also learned about this.
At first, they thought it was really a matter of the lady's family, so they passed it on.
Unexpectedly...
The county magistrate's wife laughed angrily, "Very good, very good, a little concubine dares to call herself uncle's family."
The county magistrate's wife walked straight to the concubine's courtyard without saying a word.
With four maids.
As soon as she arrived at the concubine's courtyard, she said, "Quick, tie up this lawless man for me." She was reluctant to marry this concubine.
Now, he dared to touch the reputation of her mother's family, he deserved to die, and he even dared to say that he was the county magistrate's brother-in-law, ruining the official career of the magistrate, he deserved to die.
