Tang Shiyue let her nag and thought of a solution anxiously.
Just then, I heard two chirping sounds of birds outside the window.
Tang Shiyue was cheered up.
She stood up and asked, "Don't you want to take a bath? Where is it?"
When the maids and servants saw that she had finally figured it out, they were overjoyed and hurried forward to lead the way.
Tang Shiyue was brought into the room, and then she drove everyone out. The next moment, the window opened silently and Qi Jing jumped in.
Tang Shiyue really loves this scene of "Qi Xiaolang falling from the sky"! This feeling that he can easily come to her side no matter where she is, is so fucking exciting!
Qi Jing glanced out the window with a cold face, and as soon as he turned around, she threw herself into his arms and put her arms around his waist.
Qi Xiaolang’s body stiffened.
He felt that she must be frightened, and he felt pity for her, so he stroked her hair and said softly, "Ayue, don't be afraid."
...
...
And Tang Shiyue’s mood was...Qi Xiaolang’s waist is so strong, thin and flexible, it feels so good to touch!
She touched it twice calmly, then quickly told the story again, and then said: "The document is in Tang Shuizhi's hands. It's best to find a way to steal it or destroy it. Without the document in their hands, everything will be fine."
Qi Jing hesitated for a moment and asked, "Did they go to the government to change their nationality?"
Tang Shiyue was reminded by his words, and suddenly an idea flashed in her mind.
How could I forget that, in fact, the household registration management of the Dayan Dynasty was very strict. It was not just a matter of both parties signing a document, but one had to take the document to the government to change the household registration, that is, to change the good household registration to the low-class household registration.
But Tang Shuizhi had no good intentions when she bought her. She didn't really want to make her a maid. After only one day, she was beaten up and then sent back. Then Tang Shuizhi got married.
In such a short time, they probably haven't had time to go to the government to change their nationality.
If that's the case, there's still room for maneuver.
Tang Shiyue asked a few more questions and came up with an idea. She quickly said, "First, find a way to check whether my nationality has been changed. If not, send someone to pick up my brother and sue Tang Shuizhi for murder on my behalf. Then County Magistrate Lin can take me out naturally."
In the Dayan Law, the definition of murder is very detailed.
There are seven types of murder, namely murder, robbery, intentional killing, fighting, manslaughter, killing for fun, and negligent homicide.
Murder can be divided into three types: murder without injury, murder with injury, and murder with death.
Her crime can be considered murder and she should be hanged.
For a major case like this, as long as it is reported, the county magistrate can come and arrest the person naturally.
Qi Jing responded, then opened the window and jumped out. Less than a cup of tea later, he came back and whispered outside the window, "I've called someone. I'll stay here with you."
Tang Shiyue was certain.
Although Qi Xiaolang is young, he is very reliable in doing things.
Really lovely.
After a while, the news came that they had not yet gone to the government to change their nationality.
That's good. Tang Shiyue felt more at ease.
After a while, hurried footsteps were heard, and then the door was pushed open. Meng Ziyang strode in, his face full of anger.
When he saw her sitting there obediently, his expression relaxed and he said with a smile, "That's right! Wouldn't it be better if you did it earlier? Wouldn't it be better for you to live a good life with me, the young master, rather than toiling around on your own?"
Tang Shiyue smiled faintly and said, "Actually, I don't quite understand why you insist on marrying me?"
Before Meng Ziyang could answer, Tang Shiyue said, "Not to mention marrying a wife, even if it's taking a concubine, a woman's dowry is private property. My wine recipe, winery, and wine shop are all my dowry. I don't need to give it to the Meng family."
She raised her eyebrows: "The Meng family has been a royal family for generations. Can they still rob a little girl like me of her dowry?"
Meng Ziyang's face changed.
After a long while, he sneered: "You are just refusing to accept my toast! Young Master, I have done my best, please don't be rude to me!!"
"I'm telling the truth." Tang Shiyue said sternly, "Mr. Meng, there is a contract for the Fushou wine. After the contract expires, we can naturally negotiate again. As for the wine from the Tang family wine shop, if you don't sell it locally, I can sell you more. It's okay. Let's talk business properly. Why make things so awkward?"
Meng Ziyang said: "Do you think I'm a fool? You are a slave bought by my family. Even your life belongs to me. Why would I do business with you?"
Tang Shiyue said: "It was Tang Shuizhi's family who bought me, not you!"
He said, "Why not give it to me as a gift?"
"What evidence do you have? Don't talk to me about documents. Do you have an official verification?"
Meng Ziyang sneered: "Tang Shuizhi is my concubine, what evidence do you need?"
The two sides had a good argument.
At this moment, Butler Feng came in hurriedly and said, "Oh no, Master, someone from the county government is here to take Tang...Mrs. Tang and Tang Shuizhi away."
Meng Ziyang was furious: "What's going on? County Magistrate Lin is going to tear his face off with me? Take my servants from the Meng Mansion by force?"
"No," Butler Feng said, "Someone has accused the Tang family of murder, and the government is here to bring in the suspect and witnesses."
Meng Ziyang was stunned.
He glanced at Tang Shiyue suspiciously, but Tang Shiyue didn't avoid him and let him look at her.
Meng Ziyang sneered: "I underestimated you!"
But he didn't dare to confront the local officials head-on, so he could only angrily say, "Don't think I'm afraid of you!"
Tang Shiyue didn't answer, and Butler Feng whispered a few words to persuade her. After a while, Meng Ziyang waved his hand with a sullen face.
The old woman quickly sent Tang Shiyue out, and Tang Shuizhi was also sent out with her.
Meng Ziyang doesn't care whether Tang Shuizhi lives or dies.
But Tang Shiyue was indeed bought by the Tang family and was a slave of the Tang family. Strictly speaking, he was also the "property" of the Tang family. He did not become part of the Meng family just because he married Tang Shuizhi.
The more Meng Ziyang thought about it, the angrier he became. He kicked the vase to pieces, then swept the cups and plates on the table to the ground with a wave of his hand.
Butler Feng hurried forward to persuade him: "Master, why are you angry? Good things take time. It's useless for Miss Tang to make such a fuss."
Meng Ziyang asked: "What do you mean?"
Butler Feng said: "Master, don't forget that I am hiding for my master!"
Yes, the Yan Law has a provision that "slaves are allowed to conceal the truth for their masters", that is to say, unless it is a serious crime such as treason or rebellion, slaves are not allowed to inform on their masters and relatives within a certain range, otherwise they will be sentenced to death by hanging.
Even if the master kills a servant without authorization, he will only be caned 100 times, and he can be shown to be innocent by finding a reason.
Meng Ziyang was not stupid, and he came to his senses immediately: "In other words, as long as it is proven that Tang Shiyue is a slave of my Meng family, then even if I hurt her, I will not be guilty! Since she is not guilty, then no matter who sues, it will be in vain!"
"Yes," Butler Feng said with a smile, "Young Master is indeed smart!"
"That's great!" Meng Ziyang said, "Go to Tang Shuizhi's house and bring her father over! Tell him what to say!"
He suddenly remembered: "Oh, don't forget to register with the government!"
Steward Feng said, "I'll get someone to do it right away! I'm just afraid that Magistrate Lin will get in the way..."
"What are you afraid of!" Meng Ziyang glared and said, "I don't believe he dares to cover up everything with one hand! I have the documents in my hand, why can't they do it for me?"
