When Tong Sanlang saw Qiao Xiaomai rush out, he immediately said, “Go tell your grandpa what’s happening. Tell him that your grandma is trying to use kneeling and accusing you of being unfilial to coerce you into turning over the silver. It’s not that you won’t give it, it’s that you simply don’t have that much.” lie had immediately guessed Sun Family’s plan to use this tactic to force Qiao Xiaomai into submission, so he turned the tables and used it to frame her with a crime.
“It’s not an issue of your lack of filial piety but her cruelty. She’s so desperate for silver, she’s stooped to using such a method. She doesn’t deserve to be your grandmother!”
“Go bring your grandpa, tie her up and take her to County Town courthouse for justice!”
Naturally, Tong Sanlang harboured distaste for Sun Family.
Now he was arranging to marry Qiao Xiaomai and as for Sun Family, this shrewish woman, he was going to deal with her.
Currently, the left prime minister Yu Ang is Tong Tiehu’s younger brother, and his sixth grandfather.
Because of this relationship, every new county magistrate of Huai’an County is appointed by his sixth grandfather. Having the county magistrate try this case and make Sun Family sever ties with Qiao Xiaomai and her family is as easy as lifting a finger.
He intended to show Qiao Xiaomai his sincerity through his actions.
Qiao Xiaomai had originally run out of the house out of helplessness but when she heard what Tong Sanlang had to say, she instantly halted in her tracks.
Her eyes widened slightly, her face coloured with shock.
Go to the county magistrate for justice?
Sun would be able to accuse her of being unfilial in front of the county magistrate with ease. In the “Daqi Law”, there were only punishments for being unfilial, there was nothing about being unkind!
“Beyond the law, there is justice. The county magistrate will give you justice.” Tong Sanlang said this, nodding at Qiao Xiaomai. His handsome face held an expression of confidence and determination.
Qiao Xiaomai looked at his handsome face, bit her lip, and headed towards Tong Family.
Let’s bring over Tong Tiehu first!
Damn, Sun Family, this shrew, she really wanted to bash her with a bag over her head!
Sun was dumbfounded.
Her meticulously thought out plan had just been labelled as being unkind by Tong Sanlang and she was supposed to be tied up and taken to see the county magistrate?
This is too simple and brutal!
Go see the county magistrate? This was right into her plans, but her intentions were not like this at all!
She aimed to make a greatly vocal complaint, not be dragged there to stand trial!
“Tong Sanlang, if you’re not aware of another family’s hardship, then you shouldn’t interfere in their domestic matters.” Sun gritted her teeth, staring resentfully at Tong Sanlang, as if she were ready to pounce and bite him.
Tong Sanlang’s eyes were cool and his gaze towards Sun was very calm. Even the emotion of contempt for a shrew like Sun, he was too lazy to show. “Tell all this to the county magistrate. Isn’t that what you want?”
When Sun heard this, her heart trembled fiercely. How come?
Did Tong Sanlang guess her plans?
She felt a panic inside, but on the surface, she kept her composure, “There are mountains of gold and silver in the house, but she is unwilling to contribute any to help her uncle. Even if this ends up in front of the county magistrate, I will be in the right!”
“And furthermore, Tong Sanlang, you should think about this carefully. Maybe in the future, she will treat you the same. Do not let her lead you on.”
She’s even trying to stir up trouble.
Tong Sanlang twisted up the corner of his mouth into a cold smile. He was already prepared for Qiao Xiaomai to chase him with a knife, even to die under her blade, this wasn’t a big deal.
Tired of dealing with Sun, Tong Sanlang stepped out of the courtyard, standing at the gate looking out, checking if there were any idlers in the vicinity.
It was crucial that everyone knew about Sun’s shameless behaviour of kneeling down to her granddaughter to coerce silver out of her. When the magistrate decreed to sever relations, then none of the townsfolk would have any objections..
